Wow. Faster than usual in chapters, huh? Well, here we go.

Chapter Two: The Adventure Begins

Link ran out of the house and ran to the tower. He found his sister standing where he left her. He stepped forward. She

turned around and her mouth went open in surprise. "You look so handsome, big brother!" Link smiled. "Thanks." Aryll

then looked concerned. But, wouldn't you be too hot in those clothes?" Link chuckled. "It's tradition, Aryll. I'm not

fighting that. So, when you come of age, I'm not gonna protect you from that." Aryll gave him a mean look. "What?" She

continued to frown. "Aryll, don't look at me like that. That's the one thing I can't stop, so you'll have to deal with it when

it happens. I'm not going to be here forever, Aryll. That means I can't protect you forever. I have to go out on my own

soon. I'm 16. I have to find my own home and get a job. Although, before I leave, I will be taking sword lessons, so that

I can protect myself, if I have to." She then sniffled. "I'll miss you, big brother!" She then started bawling into his

shoulder. Link gently rubbed her. After a while, he said, "Aryll, you're soaking the tunic." She then looked up at him.

"Can I visit?" Link chuckled. "Of course you can! I have no excuse to not welcome you. Besides, I enjoy your company."

She then hugged him again, only this time, she didn't cry. Link smiled and said, "Aryll?" She looked up into his eyes.

"You'd better get to the house. I've got to go see Orca." She nodded and climbed down the ladder. Link in the meantime

went to see Orca. As he approached the house, however, he saw a giant bird flying in the sky. "Huh. Never seen that

before." He then noticed that it seemed to flinch and dropped something into the woods. "I'll check that out after I see

Orca." Ten minutes later, Link left Orca's house with a new sword. He ran up the trail that lead to the Fairy Woods,

located on the summit of the mountain on the island. When he got there, he ran straight in. Almost immediately, he saw

a creature. It looked like it was sleeping, but as Link tried to sneak around, his foot stepped on a twig. The creature got

up and looked at him. "Oh, Din." The creature came at him, and he sliced through it with his new sword. He sighed.

"That was messy." He then cleaned his sword. As he entered a deeper part of the woods, he saw what the bird had

dropped. "Whoa. Since when do birds try to catch people?" He was correct. A person was hanging by their shirt on a

branch. They began to wake up. Just then, a pair of creatures, exactly like the last one, dropped down. The person, a

girl, woke up and saw Link and the creatures. "Hey!" Link glanced at her. "I'll be with you in a minute!" The Bokoblins

(the creatures) drew their swords. Link then glanced at the girl again. "Two minutes." He held his sword in the

challenge stance, as they took the acceptance stance. They lunged at him, but he easily killed one and turned towards

the other. "So, what's new in the outside world?" The Bokoblin said nothing, and lunged at him. He easily defeated this

one as well. He cleaned and sheaved his sword, then ran to the girl. And just in time, too. The branch broke and she

landed on him. She got up and said, "Uh, thanks for saving me." Link got up as well. "No problem." She then looked at

him and her eyes went wide. "Dude! Nice outfit." Link raised an eyebrow and they ran out of the woods, and found

Gonzo, who had just finished crossing the bridge. "Miss Tetra! Are you-?" He then noticed Link. "Who's he?" She glared

at him. "A local who saved me from some monsters in the woods. Now, let's go." Gonzo glanced at her. "What about the

local?" Link spoke up. "Firstly, my name's Link. Second, I don't need anything. I'm gonig to be heading out on my own

very soon." Tetra glanced at him. "Well, I'll try to remember you. Can't bother a guy who saved you, now, can you?" Link

said nothing. He noticed Aryll on the other side of the bridge. "Aryll?" Aryll waved to him, then began to cross. As she

did, the same bird who had dropped Tetra swooped her up. "Brother!" "No!" Link ran at him and threw a rock at it, but

it did no good. "No." He slumped. Tetra felt bad for him. "She was your sister, wasn't she?" Link nodded. "Whatever it

takes, I'm going after that bird." Tetra gently touched his shoulder. "Even if we knew where it's going, you'd need a

shield of some sort." Link glanced at her. "I know just the one." He ran to the house, not bothering to stop for a

second. When he got there, he ran straight in. His grandmother looked concerned. "Where's Aryll? I sent her to get

you." Link glanced at her. "She's been kidnapped." His grandmother nearly slumped. "No. Not Aryll!" Link then glanced

at the shield on the wall. "I'm going after her." His grandmother looked at him. "And I'll need to borrow the shield." She

nodded. "Good luck, Link." Link put his hand on her shoulder. "I'll bring her back safely. I promise." He ran out with the

shield, and saw Quill, the postman, talking with Tetra. As he got closer, he heard what Quill was saying. "The bird makes

its nest in the Forsaken Fortress, north of here." Link spoke up as he arrived. "Then that's where I'll go." Tetra glanced

at him. "That's where we'll go. It's my fault the bird got your sister. If I hadn't decided to go south when it attacked us,

she would be safe." Link raised an eyebrow. Soon, they set sail for the Forsaken Fortress.

A/N

So, Link has to save Aryll now, and Tetra actually volunteered to help. Isn't that nice of her? Anyways, I'll have to call it off here. Can't put the COMPLETE adventure in one chapter, now, can I?
