Three boys sat in their cottage. The middle child glared angrily up at the others.

"It's just not fair!" he wailed. "I mean, I'm the shortest, even though I'm older than Young Link. How can that even be possible?" The youngest walked up and awkwardly tapped the middle child's shoulder.

"There, there…" he said. The oldest rolled his eyes and stepped over to his brothers. He put his arm around the crying brother's shoulder and hugged him.

Young Link tried to help by patting his sibling in the back. "Toon Link, don't cry," he said. "You might not be tall, but you're brave, and awesome, and…and…" He trailed off. "I've run out of adjectives," he whispered urgently in his oldest brother's ear.

The oldest stopped hugging Toon Link and looked at Young Link.

"So, Link, what are your ideas?" the youngest boy asked, his eyes gleaming with hope. Link said nothing; only shook his head disapprovingly.

"It's OK," Toon Link said, sniffling. "I'm alright now."

Suddenly, they heard a girl screech. Link rolled his eyes and pursed his lips, as if to say, "Really? Again?" Young Link rushed to the window.

"Young Zelda?" he called.

"Help us, please!" came the faint reply. A huge, snake-like creature with tentacles was gripping the three sister princesses of Hyrule, the boys' native kingdom.

"Toon Zelda!" Toon Link shouted, rushing towards the window. But, by the time he got there, the monster had vanished.

"Yuriel will rule this world!" an eerie voice cried from out of no where. Young Link glanced at his brothers.

"I'm guessing we can't defeat him with normal weapons…?" he questioned. There was a moment of silence. Then Toon Link jumped up.

"I call the Four Sword!" he exclaimed, running out of the house.

"I get the Master Sword!" Young Link yelled, jumping up and following Toon Link. Link shook his head.

My brothers can use their swords, he thought, a grin spreading over his face. But my weapon will be the moonlight. Link remembered that, when in a sheet of twilight, he turned into a werewolf. But, even though he didn't need a sword, he got up and followed his brothers out anyway.

At the Four Sword sanctuary, the brothers waited anxiously for Toon Link to draw the sword. He reached out and grabbed it.

"Wait!" he exclaimed suddenly, taking his hand away.

"What? Why did you stop?" Young Link asked.

"If I draw the Four Sword, Vaati and his demons will be released," Toon Link replied.

"No they won't," Young Link argued. "You destroyed the Dark Mirror, remember?" Toon Link was silent for a second.

"Still, I'm not taking any chances," he said, warily taking the sword in his hand again. He drew it and quickly replaced it with his old sword. "Hang on. Do I need to say the words as I'm drawing the sword?" he asked his siblings. Link shook his head.

"I don't think so," Young Link said. Toon Link shrugged.

"Oh, Four Sword, lend me your strength!" he called. Suddenly, there was a flash of light and, when Link and Young Link looked up again, there were four Toon Links right in front of them.

"Yay, I'm back!" the Toon Link in red cried, hugging the others. The one in blue rolled his eyes.

"It's good to see-er, myself- again," Toon Link said.

"Great, you're all together again," Young Link said, slightly annoyed. "Now, can we go get my sword now?" Toon Link nodded.

"Wait, are we all keeping the same nicknames?" the red Toon Link asked.

"Sure, Red, why not?" Toon Link replied, walking off. "Well, Young Link, are you coming?" he called over his shoulder. Young Link muttered something and followed. Link stared at the sword in the place where the Four Sword once was. He drew his own sword, a larger version of the Master Sword. He drew Toon Link's sword and stuck his in, just in case. Then he raced after his siblings. Soon, they reached the forest that contained the Master Sword for Young Link. Young Link walked over and pulled the sword out of the stone.

"Alright, I've got it," Young Link said, starting to run off.

"Hey! Wait for all of us!" the Toon Link in blue called, running after them.

"Hold it," the Toon Link in purple called. "Doesn't your oldest brother need a weapon?" Link shook his head and gestured at the moon.

"Oh yeah, that's right! Link turns into a wolf in twilight," Toon Link explained. "Don't worry about my brothers, Vio. Leave that to me."

The six boys set off again, looking for some trace of the monster that kidnapped the Zeldas. After hours of searching, the blue Toon Link plopped on the floor.

"This is hopeless!" he exclaimed. "Are you sure this guy even exists? I mean, you've been known to be wrong at times."

"Gee, Blue, it's awfully nice of you to insult yourself and both of your brothers who also saw this snake-ish creature," Toon Link said, smiling. Blue stood up again, glared angrily at Toon Link, and then kept going. All of a sudden, a cloud of smoke popped up in front of them. The creature they were searching for appeared, cackling evilly.

"You're too late," he said, grinning.

"Where are you keeping Zelda, you fiend?" Blue cried. Yuriel laughed.

"As if I'd tell you!" he snapped, zapping them all with shadowy fire. He reached out with his tentacles and grabbed Blue.

"Blue!" Toon Link cried, gripping his sword and rushing forwards.

"You never learn, do you?" Yuriel asked, grabbing Red, Toon Link, and Vio.

"Put my brother down!" Young Link screamed. He took out his boomerang and tossed it. Yuriel grabbed it and crushed it, and then he took Young Link.

"Link! Help us, please!" Young Link called.

"Oh, no you don't!" Yuriel exclaimed, reaching out for Link. Link rolled out of the way, slashing Yuriel's tentacle as he passed. He ran towards a sheet of twilight. His toe touched the edge, and then he felt something on his foot. Not bothering to turn around, knowing exactly what was going on, Link jabbed his sword into the ground. He pulled himself forwards, into the twilight.

Finally, just as he got his upper body through the moonlight, Yuriel's tentacle yanked on his ankle and he flew backwards. But, at that moment, the transformation took place. Link was soon a wolf. He scratched off the tentacle that held him and then leaped at Yuriel's body, bouncing off and biting the tentacle that held Young Link.

"Thanks," Young Link gasped. Landing on the floor, he ran quickly to the moonlight and hid behind a tree.

Vio took out his bow and shot at the tentacle that held Toon Link, and Toon Link landed, bouncing off of his older brother's back and slicing Vio free. Vio landed on the ground and ran off to go get his arrow.

Toon Link hid behind the tree with Young Link. Blue used his sword to cut himself free and dropped to the ground, racing behind the tree with the others. Vio grabbed his arrow and ran behind the tree too. Toon Link poked his head out from behind the tree and tossed his boomerang, slicing the tentacle that held Red. Yuriel screeched. Red fell and landed safely on Wolf Link's back.

"Wheeee!" Red exclaimed while sliding off of his rescuer.

"You fools!" Yuriel cackled, his tentacles growing back. "You may think you can beat me, but you cannot. Especially if you are no longer together!"

There was a big flash of light. The exposure to the latterly mentioned thing turned Link back to normal. He ran towards Yuriel, his sword out. Yuriel grabbed his arm and flipped him. Then he grabbed his neck and threw him at a tree. "Link! Are you OK?" Young Link called. There was no reply. Young Link was worried for a second; then he remembered that Link doesn't speak. Suddenly, the light died down. Young Link opened his eyes and found himself in front of a cave.

"Link?" he called. "Toon Link? Hello?" Nothing happened. "Hey, guys, if you're trying to scare me, it worked," he called again. Young Link poked his head into the cave. "Hello?" he yelled. Hello…hello…hello…the cave responded. Young Link came out. Fear gripped his heart, cold as ice. "Where are you guys?! Help me!" he cried. He collapsed on the ground, tears sliding down his cheeks. "Where are you?" he whispered.
