Author's note: Hello! Before we begin, I am sorry to say but the next chapters of When Worlds Collide Part I will be delayed until further notice. The reason being is because my story guideline and chapter list was erased during a phone factory reset. In the meantime, you can contiue reading this! Chapter 2: Another day on Outset Island "Big brother?" Aryll, a young girl of Outset Island wearing a blue dress with sunflower designs, cried out. Hearing no response, she called for her older brother again "Oh big brother?", but still heard no response. "I have a feeling I know where he is at", Aryll thought to herself as she made her way towards the lookout in search of her brother and sure enough there he was, sleeping peacefully and quietly snoring in his blue shirt with a lobster design and orange pants. Feeling the opportunity to pull a prank on her older sibling, Link, Aryll snuck up on him and yelled "Boo!". Link woke from his sleep in a panic, "AHH, WHAT THE..." he yelled, frantically looking around. Aryll giggled, which caught Link's attention. "Aryll?! Why did you do that?" he said. "Because I thought it would be funny." Aryll replied with a smile on her face. Link exhaled and said "Well stop, you could have scared me to death". Aryll, feeling a bit guilty, said "I'm sorry, big brother". Link, now feeling bad for scolding his younger sister, said "Ah forget about it, sis. It's okay." "So why are you here all by yourself, Link?" Aryll asked. "Because even after two years of adventure and sailing, this is still my favorite place to take a nap." Link said, leaning against the guard rail of the lookout, staring out into the vast sea, "That might be the only thing that hasn't changed". It had been two years ago since Aryll was kidnapped by a giant bird known as the Helmaroc king and Link set out on a quest with his new pirate friend, Tetra, to rescue her. Unfortunately, Link failed his first attempt, but after a while he managed to free his sister and defeat the mastermind behind this,Ganondorf, with the aid of his talking boat, the King of Red Lions A.K.A. King Daphnes Nohansen Hyrule, the earth and wind sages, Medli from the rito tribe and Makar from the Korok tribe, and of course the pirate leader, Tetra A.K.A Princess Zelda. Later, Link and Tetra departed to find the new Hyrule. It took time, but after a while they finally found a place to establish New Hyrule. After that, Link decided to return home to Outset Island. Link was 12 years old at the time and Aryll was 8 years old, now Link was 14 and Aryll was 10. "Good to see that you haven't changed that much, big brother," Aryll said, hugging her brother's waist, "Now come on, sleepyhead! We're going to miss our training with Orca". Link stretched to get the sleepiness out of his system "Alright, let's go" he said, making his way down the lookout's wooden ladder. Link and Aryll made their way to Orca's door and entered his home. "It's impolite to enter someone's home without knocking, big brother." whispered Aryll as they walked into the room. "But I've done it a billion times already and no one has ever said anything." replied Link with a hint of confusion and uncertainty in his voice. "Hmm, now why is that?" asked Aryll, also sounding a bit confused. "I..really..don't..know, little sister" said Link, scratching the back of his head in confusion. Orca, an old man wearing purple pants and a red belt, made his way to Link and Aryll. "Hello there, you two," said Orca,"Are you ready to continue your training?" he asked, pulling out his trusty spear. "Yes, we are, right Aryll?" Link asked, pulling out his Hero's sword and Mirror shield. "You bet! Let's do this, Link." said Aryll, pulling out her own Hero's sword and the family shield. "Then let us begin!" said Orca, preparing his spear in a defensive position. After an hour of training with Orca, Link and Aryll felt exhausted. Aryll had it a bit tougher. Link only practiced his sword swings and his hurricane spin technique. The only new techniques he learned were the fatal blow, the mortal draw and the helm splitter. Aryll, on the other hand, had a long way to go. She had to practice her vertical, horizontal, and thrust attacks and learn the spin attack, parry attack, jump attack, and the hurricane spin all in one day. It wasn't easy for her. After her abduction, Aryll decided to learn the ways of the sword for self-defense in case anything like that ever happened again. She insisted that Orca taught her, but Orca refused because she was too young. When Link returned to Outset, Aryll begged Link to convince Orca otherwise. Orca agreed to teach Aryll, but only under Link's supervision. When training was over, Link, Aryll, and Orca all got together in the center of the room "Well..done..today..you..two" Orca said while catching his breath. He appeared to be the most exhausted out of the three. "Mr. Orca, are you alright? You seem a bit tired" said Aryll. Link, continuing what Aryll mentioned, said "She's right, Orca. Maybe it's time to take a break from all this training". "Now Link, I may be old, but I'm not that old. I've still got a few years left in me" said Orca. "Mr. Orca," Aryll asked, raising her hand "how old are you?". "Aryll! You don't ask an old...um..I mean, elderly man his age!" Link said. "Now, now, Link, it's okay with me." stated Orca."Now Aryll, I am...uh...no, that's not it," said Orca, scratching his beard ",uhh...no, that's not it either...come to think of it, I think I lost count. Sorry, Aryll". "Um...that's okay, Mr. Orca." said Aryll, grunting in effort to carefully put her sword back in it's sheathe behind her. "Well Orca, I guess we'll be on our way. Thanks for today's lessons." said Link, helping his sister put away her sword. "Anytime, Link." said Orca, putting down his spear and taking a seat. Link and Aryll walked out of Orca's home, but shortly after they left, he said to himself "How old am I !?". Orca sat there, thinking about his unknown age for the rest of the day. Well, there is another chapter down! By the way, I forgot to mention, in some chapters there may be some song references. In this chapter, there is one. Can you find it? I'll reveal it in my next chapter. Later!
