When Link and Rekhyt were out of the Market, Link looked up. He saw a HUGE, White castle made of stone. He then heard some music, the Japanese kind. The guard was not paying Link any mind. He caught some of the music and he sort of liked it. The words were none like he had ever heard.

Kimi note de kirisaite omoi hi no kioku o kanashimi no iki no ne o tometekure yo. Saa ai ni kogarete mune o tsuranuke. Asu ga kuru hazu no sora o mite. Mayou bakari no kokoro motte amashiteru. Katawara no toi ga habataita. Doku ka hikari o mitsukerareta no ka na. Naa omae no se ni ore mo nosete kurenai ka. Soshite ichiban takai tokoro de. Okizari ni shite yasashisa kara toozakete. Kimi no te de kirisaite. Omoi hi no kioku o. Kanashimi no iki no no o tometekure yo. Saa ai ni kogarete mune o tsuranuke.

Link would have liked to listen to the rest, but Rekhyt had dragged him away.

"What in the world are you doing?" he hissed.

"I'm, uh, listening to the music... duh! Idiot!"

Rekhyt growled at him for THAT! Link looked over to his right and saw some vines growing on the wall. Carefully he walked over to the wall. He climbed the vines... or at least tried to. The music kept distracting him. Link got to his feet and tried yet again to climb the vines, buuuut... fell back on his rear! Rekhyt was becoming very impatient. Link’s face was now screwed up in concentration. He was trying very hard not to listen to the nice Japanese music.

‘Ohhhh!’ thought Rekhyt, ‘Didn’t want to do this but oh well.’ He sighed, "Hey Liiiiink!" he said in a singsong voice. Link flinched and looked at Rekhyt. He knew what was coming.

"Yes?" he whimpered.

"Hurry up or else I will keep saying something..." he smirked.

"What word?" Link was almost too afraid to ask.

"This. I’m bored! I’m bored! I’m bored! I’m bor..." but he was cut off by Link who had his hands over his ears.

‘There’s no such thing as stupid fairies! No such thing as stupid fairies!’ thought Link desperately but all to no avail, Rekhyt was very much real... sadly. "Okay, okay! I’m going! I’m going! Sheesh!"

Link scrambled up the vines, successfully this time. When he reached the top, he carefully walked on the ledge. He was almost distracted by the softer music coming from the radio. He covered his ears and walked on. When he reached the end of the path, he saw a hole. Link looked down and saw a ladder.

‘Good.’ He thought as he climbed down the ladder.

When he reached the bottom, he overheard two guards talking with each other.

"So the Princess Zelda is still trying to get her father to believe that dream she’s been having?" asked one guard.

"Yup. She is a stubborn one." replied the second guard.

"Mm-hmm." the other guard nodded.

Link heard the music in the background and he felt very sleepy all of a sudden. But Rekhyt snapped him out of it just in time.

"Careful." He hissed. Link nodded.

He quickly but quietly, stepped out of the small stone building and looked all around. Guards were everywhere. Link gulped.

"Hurry up Link!"

"Huh? Oh right... sorry."

Link carefully crept out of the guards’ lookout. Link was very, very glad that no guards were in there.

"Or I’d be in some very deep crap." said Link quietly as he moved forward.

Link looked ahead of him and saw a big rock. He looked at it with confusion. Then he saw a sign, but he couldn’t read it from where he was. It was close to sunset now. Because he couldn’t read it, he moved closer to the sign. It read: Notice: DEAD END TURN AROUND.

"Oooookayyyy. Weird." he said to himself.

He did turn around. Well what else could he have done? Walk into the wall? I think not! Link looked around him so he could see where the guards were. To his right, there were two of them, they were chatting with each other. Straight ahead and to the left, there was one more.

‘Well,’ thought Link, ‘I might be able to sneak my way past them...’ he paused in his thoughts, 'Well I would, if this stupid fairy would just shut up! Ah-ha! Got it! Now I know what to do!'

Link crept forward and prayed to Din that Rekhyt would be quiet. It was as if Din had heard his prayer. He was as silent as the grave. Just as he reached the hill a wolf howled somewhere in the distance. Link jumped and looked around in panic. Where were the Skullkids?

‘Maybe they won’t come to this place. Cooool!’ he thought.

He pushed on. He continued, luckily the guard didn’t notice him. Link smiled to himself. One of the guards sneezed and Link jumped and turned around veeerrryyy slowly. The guard didn’t turn. Link breathed a sigh of relief as he pushed on. He hid behind a tree and looked at the castle entrance.

"Oh! That’s just great!" Link breathed.

"What?" asked Rekhyt, clueless as ever.

"Ugh, look in front of you ya’ idiot!" now it was Link’s turn to be impatient.

Two guards were standing guard in front of the entrance to the castle. They, like all the other guards, were chatting with each other.

"Oh... okay." He looked at Link, "Would you like me to shut up?" he asked.

"Yes very much. Wait... why are you asking me this?"

"Because, you will get very pissed off wouldn’t you?"

"Why yes I would. How did you know?"

‘Experience.’ thought Rekhyt.

Link looked around for a way to get around the guards. On the wall there were some jagged rocks that he could climb up. Link smiled and ran over to the wall. He climbed up the rocks. All of a sudden, he felt a movement in his tunic. He pulled out the egg that Malon had given him.

"Oh! I had completely forgotten about this." he said.

The egg started to shake. Link looked at it, he was puzzled. Then all of a sudden, the egg hatched. Lo’ and behold! A chicken!

"Whoop-de-doo! Joy!" he said, sarcasm in his voice.

The chicken crowed. Link thought fast... for the guards were looking his way now. He jumped down and got in the water. The water was very cold. Instantly the young boy began to shiver.

"V-very b-b-bad id-idea." he muttered under his breath, teeth chattering in the cold.

"No kidding, stupid." retorted Rekhyt.

"Sh-shut u-up R-rekhyt."

Link swam until he found a way out of the water. He climbed out and lay down in the warm sun. He breathed a sigh of relief.

‘Well,’ he thought, ‘better get movin’ or Rekhyt will get on my case...’

He trailed off in his thoughts because over to the right, there was a man, a fat man mind you, anyway the man was sleeping and snoring... very loudly too. Link got up and walked towards the sleeping man.

"Ah-ha!" said Link excitedly, "THAT’S why Malon gave me the egg... so I could wake fatty up here."

Link pulled out the very wet Cuckoo, it tried to peck him, well, he put the cuckoo beside the man. The chicken crowed. The man woke with a start.

"Wh-what in tarnation?" he just noticed Link for the first time, "Who are you, laddie?" Link blinked at the man. "Oh right sorry, I didn’t introduce myself, my name’s Talon. Nice to meet ya’ sonny!"

Link flinched, he did not like to be called ‘sonny’.

"Uh, well," he stopped, "Malon tol--" he was cut off by Talon who all of a sudden was panicking.

Talon jumped up and ran off. He ran out the front gates.

"Oh no fair." pouted Rekhyt, "HE gets go through the front gate."

"Well know what, Rekhyt? Life’s just not fair."

That shut Rekhyt up. Link looked around for a new entrance. Finally after about five minutes found it: boxes were in front of him. Then he got an idea. He moved over to the boxes and began to make something like a bridge, for there was a hole in the side of the castle.

"Hey Link what’re you doin’ hunh?"

"Just watch and learn, stupid fairy, watch and learn."

He was able to use his plan to create a bridge. He climbed on top of the boxes and jumped over to the hole. He crawled through.

When he entered the Castle Grounds, he looked around and proceeded. He moved forward and he saw guards patrolling around.

"Ohhhh joy! More guards. Now what?" Link said to himself.

"Well you could jus--" Link cut him off.

"I know what to do now, baka, so just shut up."

It took him fifteen minutes to get past all of the guards. He finally entered the princesses’ courtyard.

‘Finally!’ he thought.

He walked over to the princess and got her attention. She turned and gasped.

"Hunh? Who are?" she stopped as she saw Rekhyt, "You’re from the forest, aren’t you?" she asked. Link nodded. The girl laughed. "I have something to tell you... will you listen?" Again Link nodded, "Okay! It’s about this dream I’ve been having...blah, blah, blaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah, blah, blah! Would you like me to repeat myself?" Link shook his head and slapped Rekhyt who had fallen asleep and was snoring. (can fairies snore?) "Well I want to show you a man, his name is Ganondorf. Will you look?"

‘Like I have a choice.’ thought Link, as he looked at the man. Boy was he ugly!

The man turned his head and looked right at Link. Link panicked.

"Did he see you?" asked Zelda, "Well don’t worry, he doesn’t know what we’re planning... yet! Heeheehee! Oh you have to leave before the guards find you. Here take this letter so you can get to Death Mountain." She handed him a letter.

"Death Mountain?" he echoed.

"Oh don’t worry, my assistant, Impa will guide you."

Link turned around and saw a tall, scary looking women standing there. He walked over to the women.

"I will now teach you a song, it is called Zelda’s Lullaby." Link then learned Zelda’s Lullaby.

Impa then somehow warped Link and herself outside of the castle. Link looked around in shock.

"You must now go to Kakariko Village. Above the village is a mountain called Death Mountain. Go there and collect the Spiritual Stone of Fire. I must leave you now."

She threw a Deku Nut and disappeared... or so Link thought, a few seconds later he heard a, "OUCH! Stupid chain!"

Link turned to Kakariko Village and made his way to his next destination!
