Kenta: Okay, so tomorrow I'm getting Ocarina of Time and I'm REALLY ecstatic to play it, so I'll probably be off for awhile. In the meantime I'll also probably want to make an Ocarina of Time story in my excitement of it all.

However, someone wanted it to become a harem...

Now I don't really know HOW I'd do it, but I already told the reviewer that I'd ask all of YOU guys first.

Would you want it to be a harem story? I'm going to quick ask you guys to read "The Lost Woods" before telling me what you'd prefer so you'd get an idea of what might come.

And I know I said I'd only write ONE TLON story at a time...but rules were meant to be broken. :D

Also, I know only Naruto will be the star, so when I say he and Sasuke leave the forest together...you know what, you'll just have to wait and read it yourselves.

And no I'm not losing inspiration for THIS story, It's just getting good! Besides, I've already got the next TWO chapters done for it. So don't worry about it. My updates have been practically right next to each other, so maybe writing OoT along with TP will space them out better.

Later!


A lone, warped bat floated around the road to Zora's domain in northern Hyrule Field. It was given the subconscious order to attack anything it saw, human, animal or anything in-between. It didn't know why its master gave this command, as it doubted anything would come its way. What would attack a lone bat?

WHACK!

A blue, nine-tailed fox snatched the bat out of the air, shaking it in its mouth before spitting it out. Naruto shook his head. Bat didn't taste as good as Chouji said it was. Then again, this bat was raw and warped, so he wasn't sure if that would count. Naruto turned and looked back up the road he had just come from. The bridge of Eldin had been taken apart by one of those portals from the Shadow Creatures, so Naruto had no way to go back. Not like he wanted to anyway. He grinned as he remember that he wasn't alone in that fight. Naruto almost got hit by one from the back, but Epona slammed it clear off the bridge. That horse really was one of the coolest animals around.

Naruto turned back towards the path, trotting down and keeping an eye and an ear out for any more bats. His nose caught the scent of something however, and when Naruto got closer, he realized what it was.

Midna, who was on Naruto's back, watched in amusement as the fox laid down, covering his nose and shaking his head. "What is it?" She looked in front of the fox to see a bag. "Let me guess, it's that one girl's? Sakura's?" She giggled when the fox whined.

'Man, that pain in the butt got me into this mess in the first place...sigh, then again I DID promise the mayor I'd get everyone back. The things I do for that place...' Naruto sighed as he got up and sniffed the bag. He turned to Midna and nodded his head, motioning for her to warp it to the twilight area where she would put all of his stuff. He would give it back to Sakura once he found her...if she would accept it.

Naruto shook his head, the scent annoying him, before he began running down the road again. He came to a clearing before his ears perked up. Off in the distance a castle loomed.

"Oh wow! Doesn't THIS place look familiar? Heehee! Looks like we finally made it back here, huh?" Midna giggled as she laid her chin on Naruto's head. The fox twitched an ear, tickling her face. The fox grinned as the imp started giggling again.

'Huh, she has a cute laugh...' Naruto suddenly blushed, but luckily Midna didn't notice. He was so busy worrying about his own blush he didn't notice the imp's. Quickly trying to hide the fact he was blushing, Naruto started following Sakura's scent once more. Twisting and turning all over Hyrule field, Naruto soon found himself in Hyrule Castle Town Market. Most of the soldiers merely sighed, hoping for their shift to be over. This caused Naruto to tilt his head in confusion.

"Don't you get it? They can't see you! Or are you confused as to why they don't notice anything wrong?" Naruto nodded his head up and down, trotting to an alley before sitting down, Midna standing in front of him. "Listen, just because you turn into a fox everytime you enter the Twilight Realm doesn't mean that everyone realizes they are IN twilight. To them, everything's normal. Understand?" Naruto was silent for a moment.

'So it's like, I'm on the other side of one of those fancy glasses, where you can see through one side but they can't see you...Okay, I get it.' Naruto nodded his head.

"Good, cuz' I don't want to explain it again. Now let's go!" Midna jumped back onto Naruto's back. As the fox trotted away, a puzzling thought occured to him.

'But, everytime a monster comes up to someone, they freak out...if I'm some kind of sacred animal that no-one can see...how is Midna invisible to everyone?' The thought bothered the fox, even as it continued to follow the trail left behind by the pink-haired villager. Walking into another alley, Naruto found an open door and a sign next to it. Naruto read it before walking inside.

The sign read 'Tsunade's Bar'.

Naruto found himself in a bar full of spirits. Activating his senses, Naruto found Sakura next to a buxom blonde-haired lady. They were looking over a small boy who had blackish hair in the shape of fins. He looked like a mermaid, half human and half fish. Was this what they called a Zora?

"This boy...can you save him?" Sakura pleaded to the lady next to her.

"Calm down all right? I just sent for the doctor. I'm no specialist (yeah right) but I know basic first aid. I've done all I can. Still...this IS rather strange. A Zora kid...here! I wonder if this is all related to those stories the soldiers are talking about in back." The lady glanced to an area farther back into the bar.

"Aww, what an emotional reunion! A girl and her fox!" Midna giggled sarcastically. Naruto twitched his eye before sliding one of his tails up Midna's back slowly. "EEK! DON'T DO THAT! THAT FELT WIERD!" She rubbed her back, not used to something furry brushing lightly against it. Naruto merely grinned before trotting to the back of the bar. There, a soldier was yelling at his underlings.

"We've had tons of complaints from people that they can't send prayers to the Spirit of the Lake! Go down to Lake Hylia and find out what's going on!" He barked.

"But sir...WHERE is Lake Hylia again?" One of the soldiers timidly asked.

"Oh fer crying out loud...come over here to the table." Naruto jumped up to the table before looking at the map, Midna putting her chin back on Naruto's head, also curious. They might as well find out just WHERE they were. "This is where WE are. In Hyrule Market." He pointed to a small square near the center of the map. He then pulled his finger to another spot. "THIS is Lake Hylia. It's the biggest lake in Hyrule for crying out loud! How can you NOT know where it is? Where are you from, Faron Woods?"

Naruto growled at the man. Oh if only he could hit him. Naruto shook his head before trotting back to the door. He looked back at Sakura, watching her for a moment. Since when was she so caring for someone besides Sasuke? Naruto shook his head. Now wasn't the time to think about that stuff. He still had to return everything back to normal, and that was his first priority.

Naruto left the Town Market, following the mental image in his mind before coming upon a bridge. Naruto started trotting along the bridge before slowing. Something felt...off.

"Hey, do you get this feeling that something's not right here? I mean, I know you had that battle on a bridge and all...but still...something seems fishy..."

Naruto wondered if it was because they were apparently ABOVE Lake Hylia, and thus there were fish below them, but he shook his head. Something still seemed wrong. It was as if something was staring him in the face, yet he couldn't see it. As Naruto started trotting further across the bridge, he realized what was wrong. His paws were getting wet and it hadn't rained for the past two days. Naruto shot his ears up, quickly sniffing the ground. He had smelt this before...but where? It definitely wasn't water...so what was it? His ears suddenly caught the the sound of walking, and when Naruto looked up, he started growling. A warped Bulblin stood at the other side of the bridge, a bow in it's hand.

"I don't like this..." Midna growled, waiting for something to happen. Naruto started slowly stalking towards the creature but tensed as it pulled out an arrow before lighting it on fire. Naruto watched in confusion as it flew clear over his head. At that moment, Naruto suddenly realized what he was standing in.

'OIL!' Naruto suddenly spun around, watching in horror as the burning arrow started a fire, which began heading towards him and Midna.

THOCK!

Naruto spun back around to find that the twilight creature had shot another fire arrow on the other end of the bridge.

"SHIT! WE'RE TRAPPED!" Midna cursed. "Quick! We've got to find a way out of here!" Naruto looked around him.

Rail...

Fire...

Rail...

Fire...

.

..

...

Shit!

Naruto whined for a moment before hoping this wouldn't hurt. Steeling himself, Naruto jumped off the side of the bridge, falling towards Lake Hylia.

"YOU MORON!" Midna shouted before Naruto suddenly wrapped all nine tail around her, trying to give her a little bit of a shield from the fall. He had done so because he realized Lake Hylia wasn't as full as the map had showed. It looked more like a puddle now...


A Twilight Bulblin watched as a little dot fell from the bridge. Had the creature really jumped off the bridge? At the speed it was falling, it would break every bone in it's body.

'Well shit. If I was still human I might be able to use my Shadow Clones to break my fall, but now...' Naruto thought in fear, the puddle coming closer and closer. The fox closed it's eyes, waiting for the impact to come.

SPLOOSH!

A great explosion rocked up from the puddle of water, originating from where the fox hit the water. The water soon calmed, as if nothing had happened. However, a figure suddenly appeared near the impact point before heading towards the shore.

"Dammit! You idiot, I don't care how charismatic that was, you still should have done something else!" Midna growled as she dragged the dead fox behind her, tears mixing with the lake water. "Stupid, stupid idiot! You are so lucky you still have her and me! You'd better stop dying on me dammit!" Her hair, which was being used as a hand, pulled the fox onto an area covered by trees before Midna snapped her fingers, a pink, glowing bottle appearing. Midna rubbed her eyes before opening the bottle, releasing Shion.

"Ah! What happened?" She gasped, looking at the dead fox. She knew it was Naruto. She had seen him transform before Midna placed her with Naruto's other things.

"The idiot jumped off the bridge...he used his tails to shield me from most of the impact..." She said before turning around. "Just...you can heal him, right?"

Shion stared at Midna before smiling wearily. "He does that to you alot, doesn't he?"

"Does what?" Midna asked, turning back around.

"Scares you. He thinks he can do anything if he puts his mind to it, but there are some things he just can't do by himself...at least, that he can live through." She laughed silently. "Still, it doesn't stop him from trying."

Midna stared at Shion in shock. "Just how much do you know about Naruto? That wierd power of his when he gets mad or really tired..." Midna started.

Shion shook her head. "I wish I knew. Naruto-kun seemed really hurt when I said I didn't know. I just hope the real me has the answers to his questions." She then turned to Midna. "I have these wierd images appear in my mind. I see Naruto-kun, in a different outfit though. He looks more like a ninja. I see him fighting a strange, purple, multiple-headed dragon using his Shadow Clone Jutsu. I've seen him die in front of my eyes, and I've seen him in both embarassing moments and moments where he makes your heart beat fast." Midna put a hand to her chest, silently remembering when Naruto had smiled at her when the sun was setting behind him. "I wish I could see more, but that's all I can see. So I hope Naruto finds another piece of me again...maybe she knows more." Shion then started dancing around the fox, making it glow. When the glow died down, Shion stood next to Midna. "I hope you two find me again soon. Good luck!" With that, the fairy disappeared.

Midna turned to the now unconscious fox. When he woke up, she would have to give him a good yelling. But for now, she decided they should rest. It was pretty late now, despite the area being shrouded in twilight. She leaned against the fox, trying to get comfortable. She gasped as three tails wrapped around her. She quickly turned to the still unconscious fox before sighing and shaking her head. Maybe she wouldn't yell too much. With that, the two weary travelers fell asleep under The Great Bridge of Hylia.


Kenta: Well, I was wondering what to do with Shion for awhile, since I gave it away that she knew something about Naruto, and he still had her from the second boss battle. I started watching the playthrough for Twilight Princess and the guy came upon The Great Bridge of Hylia where Link and Midna have to jump off the bridge and into the small puddle now known as Lake Hylia.

If it's a GAME I can understand, but if you think you can jump of a bridge and land in water that's more than a hundred feet below you and come up unharmed in REALITY, you won't live to tell the tale. I've watched Mythbusters try and they failed. MISERABLY. Poor buster.

Sorry if that seemed a little gruesome, but I tried making it a little fuzzy and warm at the end to warm you guys up. I can still picture Naruto using his tails to warm Midna when he's a Fox, so I figured I'd put it in there. Maybe I'll do more of that later on in the story.
