Takes place when Link is in Snowpeak Ruins.

HEART

Chapter 1

In which our brave hero makes a friend

Wolf Link ran through the courtyard of the Snowpeak Ruins, sniffing the snow for any signs of a key. A growling could be heard behind him. Link spun on his heel to meet his attackers. Three white wolfos leapt at him. Link growled and as soon as they in range released a spin attack. The trio flew into a wall, hitting it with a crack. Link growled as they stood, two more joining them. He snarled, daring them to attack.

They did. Link spun and then leapt onto one of the fallen wolfos, baring his teeth. The creature whimpered and struggled weakly.

Link snarled a threat.

Then he jumped off the terrified wolfos and padded away.

Almost immediately after he'd turned his back, he heard the rush of paws on snow. Link spun around and leapt at the attacking wolfos, knocking them to the ground.

Link snarled again, showing his indifference to their territory.

The wolfos growled back.

"You entered our territory, you carry the scent of the Snow Beasts. We will destroy you!" the snarled in unison.

Link snarled angrily and leapt at them. One wolfos went skidding along the ground, unconscious. Another two soon followed. The fourth leapt to attack. Link caught the creature by the throat and tossed it aside. The fifth looked at its unconscious pack.

Link barked, telling the wolfos that he intended no harm.

The wolfos, seeing is pack mowed down by one beast chilled its icy heart. It whimpered and disappeared into the snow.

"Such a pain!" Midna complained and Wolf continued to search for the key.

From the battlements above, a grey shadow watched over the scene. Its golden eyes following the wolf as it padded away from the defeated wolfos.

Later, on the battlements of the ruins, Hylian Link sent a bomb arrow into a group of Chillfos, shattering them. He shot a cannonball at a Freezard before claw-shooting over. Link turned into a wolf and leapt over the gap.

Suddenly a whimpering could be heard. He followed the sound into a corner where he found a silvery grey wolfos cowering from a pack of white wolfos.

Link snarled and leapt among the pack, biting and slashing. The white wolfos looked at him, remembering seeing him dispatch an entire pack almost effortlessly they fled whining.

The little grey wolfos whimpered and tried to cower away.

"Please don't eat me!" she pleaded.

Link whined, telling the scared little creature that he meant no harm.

He nudged her gently with his muzzle. The wolfos looked up, her bright gold eyes teary.

"W-who are you?" she asked.

Link barked.

"Link. I'm S-silver!" she whimpered.

The wolf barked, concern in his blue eyes.

She nodded and moved her tail. There was a nasty bite mark on her flank from where she'd been bitten.

Link whined in empathy before barking a warning. Then he stepped back and in a flurry of black, a hylian in green replaced the wolf.

The wolfos whined, afraid. The hylian knelt down next to Silver and reached out to stroke her. The wolfos let out a little warning growl. The hylian smiled kindly and put his hand on her fur. Out of fear Silver sunk her teeth into his hand. Link didn't flinch nor show any signs of anger. Just smiled kindly. Ashamed, the wolfos let go. Link gently stroked her fur, reassuring her. Then he reached into his pouch and produced a bottle filled with red liquid. He then produced a bowl. Uncorking the bottle he poured half of it into the bowl and put it under Silver's nose. He then recapped the bottle and put it away.

Silver sniffed the concoction cautiously and looked up at Link. He nodded his head and smiled encouragingly. She tasted the potion. It tasted bitter but immediately she felt better. Greedily she lapped up the rest. Even licking the bowl. Slowly her wound closed up and disappeared. Link chuckled and took the bowl away once she had finished. After putting it away he changed back into a wolf.

"Thank-you!" Silver said shyly.

The wolf smiled, showing his large canines.

"Sorry for biting you, I-I thought you were going to hurt me." She apologised.

The wolf shook his head and whined, telling her it didn't matter.

"He wouldn't hurt you! This beast is too much of a wuss to hurt someone who isn't trying to kill him." A voice said from behind the wolf's head.

"Who are?" Silver was cut off.

"Midna! This stupid beast's mistress. We're after a mirror shard that Yeta locked in that room." She explained pointing to the bedroom.

"I remember, the little beast-girl put it in there after she got sick. She was really nice to me and gave me dinner scraps. And she didn't let the other wolfos hurt me. She even didn't let the bigger beast-man eat me. She was very nice." Silver said.

"Yeah well that's touching and all. But we have to go! Let's move Link!" she said, kicking his sides to get him to move.

She received a little buck but he moved anyway.

"Don't go, they'll attack me again." Silver cried chasing after them.

Link stopped and turned around. He shook his head.

"B-But!"Silver stuttered.

The giant wolf put a paw on her shoulder and gave her a toothy smile. Then he trotted away and turned a hylian. He smiled and jogged away. Where he was met by Yeta. The two of them walked away.

Silver sat there, watching them go. True enough the wolfos did return. However, Silver remembered how Link had attacked them. She waited for them to close before spinning around, her long tail sending them flying. She then leapt at them, ready to tear their throats out. When she remembered what Link had done. He hadn't killed them, just scared some respect into them. Then, all the other wolfos had been too scared to fight him. She growled and went to bite at an unlucky wolfos' throat. Her teeth snapped shut barely a centimetre from its throat.

"Leave me alone!" she snarled.

Completely taken aback by this sudden display of strength the wolfos nodded violently. Silver jumped off of the creature and faced the others who were just getting to their feet.

"All of you!" she barked angrily.

She leapt forward, feigning a ferocious attack.

In fear they all fled.

Silver smiled at their fleeing forms and sat down groom herself.

When suddenly, a burst of cold air shattered the windows of the tallest room. Silver's sixth sense told her there was an evil in there.

LINK! Link had gone up there with the beast-girl. They were in trouble.

She got to her feet and raced up the spiral walkway. The door had frozen over, but Silver was a wolfos. And despite not being white, she could still pass through snow and ice. She saw the door slightly ajar and passed through the ice there. She seemed to melt into it, and came out whole on the other side. The sight that met her was a terrifying one.

Hylian Link was skidding around the room trying to outrun 10 massive pillars of ice floating around in the air. Suddenly the pillars started falling, barely missing the teen each time.

"Link!" she barked.

He turned to her in shock. BAM! A pillar hit the floor right next to him, sending him flying.

"Link!" she barked, running towards him.

He got to his feet and leapt out of the way of another pillar. Silver ran up to him, whining.

"What happened? Where's the beast-girl? Are you hurt?" she asked.

Unfortunately, he couldn't understand her when he was human. But she presumed he got the message. He pointed to a giant carriage-like egg floating in the air. At its core was a demonic looking Yeta.

Before Silver could comprehend what had happened, Link leapt at her, tackling her to the floor.

A pillar embedded itself in the icy floor where they had just been standing less than a few seconds ago. If wolfos could gulp then Silver just did.

Link pushed her to the edge of the room and resumed his running. The pillars lifted themselves out of the floor and followed link in a circle. Then the fell, intending to trap him. As the fell, Link rolled out of the way. Then he took out a metal ball and chain and began swinging it. When Yeta crashed to the floor within the circle (where might've been trapped), he released the ball, it shattered two pillars and hit the icy carriage. Yeta shrieked and rose up again. Silver noticed that already half the carriage had been shattered. One more hit might do it.

Link pulled back the chain and stowed it away before resuming the running game. However, Silver could see he was beginning to tire. She had to help somehow. Then it hit her. She could use her abilities to help him. She could simply merge him with the ice in the wall, and then run around the room instead (she wouldn't skid so much). When the pillars had fallen in a circle, she could simply pull him out when Yeta was about to attack. It would work perfectly.

Silver waited until Link ran past, before reaching out and grabbing his tunic with her teeth. Then she dragged him into the ice wall with her. She moved the ice away a bit to make a small pocket for him before melting outside again.

With Yeta's target now gone, she focused instead on the grey wolfos running around the room. She aimed and sent her pillars into the ground. Silver dodged them with ease, having spent her entire life dodging Chilfos spears. When the 8th spear hit the ground she stopped and waited. The spears spun around in a circle around her. At the last conceivable moment she leaped out of the way and ran to Link, pulling him out of the ice. Catching on he swung his ball and chain. As soon as Yeta hit the ground he released the ball, where it shattered another pillar and the rest of the carriage with it. Yeta rose into the air shrieking. Link loaded a bomb arrow and shot it at the ice covered windows. Warm sunlight streamed into the room, dispelling the darkness within Yeta.

The darkness formed into a mirror shard which Midna promptly took from Link.

Silver ran up to Link, wanting to talk to him, get some answers of something. To Silver's surprise, even after knowing him for so little time she considered him as an older littermate (sibling). However, Yeto burst into the room, shoving Link out of the way. The yeti gave a Heart to the teen before cuddling his wife.

"Time to go!" Midna told him, creating a black 'hole' on the floor.

Link nodded and walked up to Silver. He quickly turned into a wolf and looked at her.

"Can't I go with you? I can help you!" she pleaded.

Midna floated up to them.

"You know there won't be any ice and snow. We'll be heading to an Ancient Groove and the Heavens. Then the Twilight Realm. I doubt he'll return here until we beat Zant providing he survives." Midna explained.

Link growled at her defiantly at the last part.

He looked back at Silver.

"I-I want to go with you. I'm not like the other wolfos. My…my mother was a wolf. When they found out, they started bullying me. I used to live in Hyrule field with my mother. But when the monsters came we fled here. She…She was killed by one of the bublins." She told him.

Link whined in empathy. He knew what it was like. He still remembered the flames and fear and blood. It stalked him in his nightmares. But he had conquered his fear. The villagers had helped him a lot. He owed them everything.

"I-I can fight. Please, let me come." Silver pleaded.

Link looked to Midna.

"It doesn't bother me!" she said, yawning.

Silver smiled and looked to Link. The big wolf smiled and nodded his head. Silver yipped with glee and jumped around.

"Ugh Great! She's just as energetic as you!" Midna moaned.

Link smiled and padded to the black shape. Silver followed.

"All done here?" Midna asked.

The wolf looked to the happy couple and nodded. Then he and Silver stepped into the shape and they were warped away.
