GDL: This is quite an interesting story to write. The fact I'm writing it is a mystery even to me.

Chapter 4: The Market, The Castle, and The Princess

"God, I almost didn't make it to the gates in time. Freakin' owl wasting my time."

"Maybe you're just slow." Navi retorted.

"Naw, that owl just wasted my time. Now, let's find that castle..."

I ran off in the direction of the castle, but saw a red head singing, and I almost ran into her.

I smirked and thought, 'Time to put on some of the Winchester charm.'

"Hey, sweetheart."

She smiled, "Hey, your clothes! They're...different...You're not from around here, are you?"

"Nope. Haven't seen many as pretty as you, either."

Navi sighed from inside my hat.

She seemed to have ignored everything I said, "Ohh...You're a fairy boy from the forest!"

"Don't make me sound like a pansy!"

"My name is Malon! My dad owns Lon Lon Ranch! Dad went to the castle to deliver some milk, and he hasn't come back yet..."

"That sucks, well...seeya!"

"Bye!"

I ran off and said to Navi, "Why do I feel everyone's talking AT me, not to me?"

"Maybe they feel it's the only way you'll listen."

I rolled my eyes and ran off to the castle.

I made it to the outside of the castle gates. To my displeasure, the owl showed up out of NOWHERE!

"HOLY CRAP! You're going to give me a heart attack, oh wait, been there, done that."

The owl ignored me and said, "The princess is inside the castle just ahead. Be careful not to get caught by the guards. Ho ho ho hoot!"

"I figured that much, dude."

He continued, "On this ground, time flows normally. But time stands still while you are in Lon Lon Ranch or in a town. If you want time to pass normally, you'll need to leave town. Well, well, which way are you going to go now? Hoo hoo hoot! Good luck, then. Hoo hoo."

He once again flew off.

"That guy's starting to get on my nerves."

I went back to town then back to the castle to hear someone singing. It was Malon...again.

"Hey."

"Hey, are you going to the castle, fairy boy? Would you mind finding my dad?"

"No, but stop calling me that wussy name!"

She ignored me and said, "He must have fallen asleep somewhere around the castle. What a thing for an adult to do! Hee hee! Oh yeah, if you'll look for him, I'll give this to you. I've been incubating this egg very carefully...hee hee!"

She gave me a weird egg. I had no clue why I would need an egg, but I put it in my bag.

I climbed the ivy that I was eying the whole time she was talking. Before I could even get any ground covered, the egg hatched...into a chicken.

"What am I going to do with a chicken?"

Navi gave no response.

I continued to run across the field until I came to a brick wall. I climbed it and jumped into the moat.

I thought, 'Should have known this wasn't going to be easy.'

I made it up to solid ground to find a drain pipe and an old man snoring very loudly.

I said, "This must be Malon's dad."

I attempted everything to wake him up, but failed. Then, I remembered the chicken. It crowed loudly, scaring the crap out of the old man. I couldn't help but laugh hysterically when he yelled,

"What in tarnation? Can't a person get a little shut eye?"

He turned to me and said, "Hello, and who might you be?"

"Dean. Are you Malon's dad?"

He replied, "Yep. I'm Talon, owner of Lon Lon Ranch. I went to the castle to deliver some milk, but I sat down here to rest, and I guess I fell asleep..."

"Malon's looking for you."

He looked shocked, "What?! Malon's looking for me? I'm gonna catch it from her now! I messed up bad leaving Malon to wait for me! She's really gonna let me have it!"

With that, he ran off.

"Ok, that was freaky...now to get into the castle."

I saw the conveniently placed milk crates and smirked, discovering a plan. I pushed them so they were on top of each other. I climbed onto them, then into the drain pipes.

I dodged past the guards and made it to a small garden with a window. A girl was looking through it.

She turned around to reveal a very beautiful girl, but what shocked me were her blue-green eyes...

I thought, 'I know those eyes...'

"Sammy?!"

"Who?"

"Never mind."

She then asked, "Who are you? How did you get passed the guards?"

"Stealth and being quiet."

Her eyes moved over to Navi, "Oh, what's that?"

"Who, Navi?"

"Is that...a fairy?"

"Yup. An annoying one at that."

She asked, "Then, are you...Are you from the forest?"

"In this world I am."

She continued her questioning, "Then...then...you wouldn't happen to have the Spiritual Stone of The Forest, would you?! That green and shining stone..."

"Yeah, it's right here." I took it out of my pocket, knowing I could trust her.

"Just as I thought!" She looked happy.

"I had a dream...In the dream, dark storm clouds were billowing over the land of Hyrule...But suddenly, a ray of light shot out of the forest, parted the clouds, and lit up the ground...The light turned into a figure holding a green and shining stone, followed by a fairy..."

I thought, 'This girl is definitely Sammy...'

"I know this is a prophecy that someone would come from the forest...Yes, I thought you might be the one..."

I thought she'd continue, but she said, "Oh, I'm sorry! I got carried away with my story and didn't even properly introduce myself! I am Zelda, princess of Hyrule."

I thought, 'Pretty name...'

She asked, "What is your name?"

I replied, "Dean."

"....Dean...strange...it sounds somehow...familiar."

'It better! Even though you're a girl, you're still Sammy!'

"Ok then, Dean...I'm going to tell you the secret of the Sacred Realm that has been passed down by the Royal Family of Hyrule. Please keep this a secret from everyone."

"Ok." I didn't know what else to say.

"The legend goes like this..."

I didn't really pay attention. Something about the triforce and if you wished on it with a pure heart the realm would be paradise, otherwise it would be hell.

She said, "That's right...The Temple of Time is the entrance through which you can enter the sacred realm from our world. But the entrance is sealed by the Door of Time. And, in order to open the door, it is said you need to collect three spiritual stones. And another thing you need...is the treasure that the Royal Family keeps with this legend...The Ocarina of Time!"

'I wonder if she'll give me it...'

She said, "I forgot to tell you...I was spying through this window just now...The other element from my dream...the dark clouds...I believe they symbolize that man in there!"

I walked up to the window to see a fugly guy with red hair. I got the same feeling from him that I got from Yellow Eyes back home...

She asked, "Can you see the man with the evil eyes?"

I nodded.

"That is Ganondorf, the leader of the Gerudos. They hail from the desert far to the west. Though he swears allegiance with my father, I am sure he is not sincere. The dark clouds that covered Hyrule in my dream...they must symbolize that man!"

He turned to look at me and I turned away.

She asked, "What happened, did he see you?"

I nodded.

"Don't worry. He doesn't know what we're planning...yet!"

I asked, "Did you tell your father about this?"

".......Yes. I told him about my dream...However he didn't believe it was a prophecy..."

I thought, 'Stupid bastard.'

"But...I can sense that man's evil intentions! What Ganondorf is after must be nothing less than the triforce of the sacred realm. He must have come to Hyrule to obtain it! And he wants to conquer Hyrule...no, the entire world! Dean...now we are the only ones who can protect Hyrule! Please!"

"No problem, Zel! Let's protect Hyrule from that son of a...er, that evil man!"

She smiled, "Thank you!"

She then said, "I...I am afraid...I have a feeling that man is going to destroy Hyrule. He has such terrifying power! But it's fortunate that you've come..."

I smiled, 'Yeah, no world can keep us apart, Sammy...er, or form we're in.'

She got excited, "We must not let Ganondorf get the triforce! I will protect the Ocarina of Time with all my power! He shall not have it! You go find the other 2 spiritual stones! Let's get the triforce before Ganondorf does and then defeat him! One more thing...take this letter...I'm sure it will be helpful to you."

She handed me a letter with her signature. I ran off to meet the paler skinned woman with silver hair. She turned out to be Impa, one of the sheikahs and Zelda's nanny. She taught me a song that she played for Zelda over the years, and then took me out of the castle.

After telling me how brave I was, and where I have to go next, she threw something on the ground, which made a bright flash. I covered my eyes because it was so bright. Next thing I knew, Impa was gone.

I went across the bridge and up the small set of steps that led to Impa's village, which was called Kakariko. I wondered what the town had to offer for information – and also why I wasn't hungry for the past few days.

Before I could get far though, Navi asked, "Hey, I wonder what Saria would say if you told her that you were going to save Hyrule?"

"Uh...I don't know. She might have some information though..."

I continued on into the town. It was a lot more active than the small towns I was used to. Usually, most people would be inside doing things, instead of working and playing outside. Though, this was the dark ages, so it'd make sense.

Many people were chatting amongst themselves, but I didn't really care. What caught my interest was the small corner of the town where barely any people lived. I walked over to the sign that said it was a graveyard.

I mumbled, "Finally, something that I'm used to."

I wandered around until I came to a fancy looking grave with two smaller graves on each side. I also noticed that a thunderstorm started almost out of nowhere. I walked up to the grave on the left, and it said,

"Royal Composer Bros.

Sharp the Elder

R.I.P."

Before I could do anything, a spirit appeared out from the grave. I was thinking of burning its bones, but Navi yelled,

"Use your sword when it isn't looking!"

"Got it!"

I slashed it the first time, and it flew. I chased after it and hit it a second time. It flew half way across the graveyard, and I made haste to try and attack it. I went to jump attack it over the fence, but it attacked me instead.

"SON OF A BITCH!" I yelled as I hit the ground.

I soon after got up and hit it for the last time. The spirit cried and disappeared. The lantern it was holding broke, and a small, green, ball of light with a face appeared. Most likely, it was the spirit.

It yelled, "GYAAAAAAH! YOU KILLED ME...Unbelievable!"

"Uh, you kinda were already dead."

It asked, "Oh, what? You're not one of Ganondorf's men, are you?"

"No, kinda the exact opposite. Tryin' to stop the bastard, y'know?"

Navi sighed, once again having to deal with my attitude. Which just made me grin.

The spirit continued, "Because of my role as a ghost, I had to be like that. I apologize."

"I'm sure you did. At least you know you're dead."

It ignored my comment and said, "Now then, let me introduce myself. Ahem...I am one of the ghostly composer brothers of Kakariko village."

"At least you guys died together..." I said, remembering both mine and my brothers' deaths.

The spirit, now known as Sharp, continued, "All the people in Kakariko were born to serve the Royal Family of Hyrule."

"Kinda the short end of the stick, isn't it?"

He once again ignored my comment and continued, "We brothers also served the Royal Family, and were assigned to study the hereditary mystic powers of the family."

"That's a lot of research, isn't it?"

He once again pretended I didn't say anything, "Though, we never could figure out the power of the triforce, we had almost completed our study of controlling time with the tones of ocarinas."

"How is that possible?"

He must have thought I wasn't there, "Uh, I mean...Actually, we did complete that study! We would have been famous, if that hateful Ganondorf had not tried to steal our results."

I said, "Yeah, he seems to be screwing everyone over lately."

He declared, "We could never let him reap the fruits of our research! That's why we gave our lives to protect the secret."

I thought, "Kinda sounds like hunters. Giving their lives to protect humans from a secret they should never know."

I asked, "Hey, Navi, you think Sharp's brother is a spirit too?"

She said, "Most likely."

I walked over to the next grave and read,

"Royal Composer Bros.

Flat The Younger

R.I.P."

Sure enough, the spirit of Flat popped out of the grave. I attacked him as soon as I could with my sword. He flew backwards into the rock wall in front of me. I waited for him to fly out of the wall, and he rammed right into me.

I said, "How 'bout a piece of this you dick?" and slashed him again.

He flew behind the large tombstone, and I once again slashed him with my sword. He flew to the side and tried to attack me, but I slashed him before he could do anything. He disintegrated, and the lantern he was holding broke inside, was another small green spirit.

He yelled, "GYAAH! I'M DEAD AGAIN! What, you again?"

"Yup, me. Hope you aren't getting tired of me." I said sarcastically with a smirk.

He said, "Somehow, you remind me of...Princess Zelda..."

I thought, "'She' IS my brother, so of course I remind you of her!"

Flat continued, "Hmm...Since you may have some connection with the royal family, I will tell you a little more of our tale. Back then, people called us great composers because of the many musical masterpieces we wrote. But we brothers were not just composers."

"What were you then?"

Flat continued on, "We had a mission to analyze the mysterious powers of Hyrule's royal family. Our names would be a part of Hyrule's history if we could complete our research!"

"Well, that explains why you're still here."

Flat still continued, "We kept our study completely secret until we completed it. To tell the truth, each of us was studying a different song, one to summon the sun, and one to summon the moon. If you were really sent by a member of the royal family, I will tell you about the results of our study."

"Trust me buddy, I was."

Flat said, "We inscribed it on the royal tombstone. As a messenger of the royal family, you should show your credentials on top of the triforce mark..."

With that, he disappeared.

I asked Navi, "What did he mean?"

"He meant play Zelda's Lullaby."

I mouthed an, 'oh' and stepped onto the triforce mark. I took out Saria's ocarina and played the song that Impa taught me. It suddenly got darker and started to rain harder. I looked around and a bright light shone on the tombstone. Soon after, it broke in a million pieces. I dove out of the way so I wouldn't get hit. When I got up, all that remained was a hole. I looked down into it, seeing nothing but darkness.

I figured there was nothing to lose, so I jumped down the hole. I wondered what things would await me on the other end. I was thinking more spirits, and maybe even zombies.

GDL: Well, after procrastinating for MONTHS, because of lack of interest, and for the fact I had a lot of summer reading to do, AND I was working on a video (still working on, actually), I finally finished this chapter. I ran out of Supernatural DVDs to watch, and it was thundering, lightninging, and raining REALLY hard. So, I picked up Ocarina of Time, and finished this chapter. Anyway, R& R and hope you enjoyed.
