The feast was a complete success. The Kokiri celebrated the return of Link, the heroic actions of Beat, and the arrival of Archer. Richard wasn't as celebrated as his friends, but he didn't mind.�
The food was mainly vegetarian, but it was still one of the greatest meals Beat had. He had never had this kind of fun at a festival, but that was because this one was thrown by children, it was supposed to be fun.�
Archer had been reintroduced to every Kokiri, and he had faint memories of them. He forgot how long he had spent alone in those woods.
Richard had sampled each dish brought to the table. And he somehow managed to do it all while using his manners. This made him a target to ameteur cooks needing positive feedback. He advised the young chefs as well as he could. He had to admit though, even though the Know-It-All Brothers were supposed to know everything, they didn't know a thing about cooking. That angered the Brothers, but made everyone nearby crack up.

Now the night is over. And everyone is waking up in unfamiliar locations.�
Beat found himself dangling from the old Deku Tree, his feet bound by a vine. He was suspended above the Deku Sprout, who seemed to not notice him. Beat shouted to get attention, but no one else was nearby.
Link was lying on the roof of the twins' house. Sleeping in his hat was his old friend Navi. They had reunited, at last!
Richard found himself inside a large cauldron inside the Know-It-All Brothers' house. Richard climbed out slowly trying to not wake the children who put him there.
Saria was sleeping under the feasting table. She discovered this by hitting her head on the underside of the table. She crawled out from underneath to find Archer curled up like a dog, on the table. He looked like he slept there as a guard to protect her.
Mido woke up half in the stream going through the village. He was caught between two rocks that kept the stream from disturbing him.
All in different areas, they all said the same thing, "That was one hell of a night!"

Archer was stiff from laying curled up like he did. Saria massaged his back to try to sooth her guardian.
Link and Navi climbed, or fell, down the roof.
Once Richard got outside, he headed to the stream to splash some water on his face. He saw Mido passed out in the water, so he fished the child out of the water and shook him awake.
"Help me!!!" shouted Beat.
Saria and Archer were first to find Beat.
"Why is he tied upside down?" asked Archer.�
"He passed out up there. He was climbing the branches and then fell and got tangled up in vines." explained the Deku Sprout.
"It's nice to know how I got up here, but hurry up and get me down!" screamed Beat squirming madly.
"Ha, Grimsley looks like a pi�ata!" laughed Link, as he and Navi joined the group staring at Beat
"Let's beat him with a Deku Stick!" suggested Saria.
"Noo! Don't you dare! I am royalty, don't you even try to, wait get that thing away from me!" cried Beat as Archer swung at him.
"What the hell are you doing?" asked Richard as he and Mido arrived.
"Trying to break him open to see what falls out of this pi�ata!" laughed Navi.
"Save me!" begged Beat. "Hey no aiming for the face!"
"Hmmm, no. I wanna whack at you!" laughed Richard grabbing the stick from Archer.
"You bastard!" moaned Beat. "What will I tell Zelda if I can't get the sage warriors?"
"What are sage warriors?" asked Mido.
Richard looked to Saria and Link, they both read the question in his eyes, and nodded. He then swung the stick at Mido, knocking him out cold.
"Can you not tell the entire forest?" shouted Navi.
"Please, it won't bother the children." replied a mysterious voice.�
Suddenly a strange boy fell from the treetop above. While he fell past the vine holding Beat, he cut it with a flick of his wrist. As he landed on his feet, Beat fell on his face.
"Ow." gasped Beat.
"Sorry." apologized the boy. "I'm here to inform you that Zelda is aware of you awakening the Forest's Sage Warrior."
"Well, long time no see Sheik." whistled Link.�
"Link, you're back!" gasped the strange boy.
"Well, that's nice," muttered Beat dusting himself off, "Quick question. Any specific order to waking these Sage Warrior people?"
"No, why?" asked Sheik.
Beat sensed something familiar from Sheik. He looked into the red eyes of the Sheikah. He stared until he remembered he was supposed to answer a question. "I was planning on going to Gerudo Valley. My people need a protector. So I plan on heading there."
"I advise against that." stated Sheik.
"Why is that?" growled Beat.
"Well, the rebels there have taken control. The few loyal to you are penned up in the Spirit Temple. The four of you wouldn't stop a fraction of them, seeing as you will probably not be killing any of them."
"Oh really? They've killed hundreds of the people loyal to me! I would be crazy not to avenge their deaths, the ones killed were the peace-loving kind Gerudo. They were the shopkeepers, the doctors, the potion-makers, the few men were probably killed along with them!" shouted Beat. His royalty showing how protective he was of those precious to him. "I'm going there, alone. I just need to find someone. And besides, a village of some friends of mine are a few days away from the fortress. Link, can I trust you to find some help for my little cavalry?"
"Oh course. You saved my home, I owe it to you to save your home. I'll head to Kakiriko, the Gorons will be happy to help, the chief is my Sworn Brother."
"Hmm, Beat. I think I'm forgetting something." whispered Richard nudging Beat.
"What is it Richard?"
"I just..." he then gasped, "I left Peter and Penny with Gwen!"
"You what?!?" shouted Beat, interrupting Link.
"I saved them from starvation?" asked Link.
"Not you, Richard, what did you do?" cried Beat shaking his head.
"When we saw you get dropped by that dragon thing I told Peter to take his cart and protect Penny and Gwen. They were headed towards Kakiriko." explained Richard.
"You don't stand a chance against that army. They constantly guard the temple, waiting for somebody to try leaving. Even my method of transportation can't get you there safely." explained Sheik.
"Fine, I'll wait." growled Beat.

Peter was not in the situation his friends were scared of. He was actually enjoying himself. Gwen knew there was no time to fool around. She was actually showing her sane side. She helped prepare their meals and tucked Penny in at night.�
They were camped out about a days walk from Kakiriko Village. Peter sat at the back of the cart, rapier at his side. Gwen smiled at his determination to protect his sister. She walked up to Peter and wrapped a blanket around him.
"You should keep warm." she advised.
"I can't, I always fall asleep when I'm warm. Cold keeps me awake." he replied, removing the blanket from his shoulders.
"I'll stay up with you then. You shouldn't be cold and alone during the night."
"Fine, I'll let you stay up with me."
"I'll get another blanket, we can both be warm and cozy." she laughed.
"Only two of them. You wear it."
"I've got an idea. We'll share it."�
She then sat next to Peter and wrapped the blanket around them.
"Will you talk with me?"�
"Of course Peter. What do you wanna talk about?"
"I dunno. Just, talk, as friends." he said with a small smile. "You think he's alright?"
"Beat? He probably survived. It's weird though. I feel like something in me is drawn to him. Not in an affectionate way though."
"But you do have feelings for him. Right?"
"No, I don't. He's just a little too mysterious. I don't know anything about his past. He could be a prince for all I know!" she sighed in exasperation.
"Or a king." muttered Peter. "Hey Gwen, how'd you find us?"
"Oh that? I was given a ride by a blue-haired guy on a white horse. I didn't get any other details about him. But he seemed to know where you guys were headed. So I asked if I could join him. He gave me a ride and then vanished. I saw Richard and decided to say hello."
"Oh, that's how."

Beat helped pack the supplies given by the village children. Archer had returned Beat's hookshot to him. Link had given the Gilded Sword to Mido, since Mido was actually nice to Link now. Richard went to Archer's old home to get a bow big enough for him to use. They were all prepared to head off to find their other friends. But before they left, Archer had to try the Rito Mask.
He found he could fly easily, and he could use the bombs he got from the Bone Soldier to attack from the sky. That will help a lot, thought Beat.
"Wait!" shouted Mido. "We forgot to give you his!"
Beat took the wrapped object from Mido, eyeing it suspiciously. He slowly unwrapped it to reveal a new violin.
"We repaired it using as much from the original violin as we could. The entire long parts the original." explained Saria.
"We used the bark from the old Deku Tree to replace some parts." added Mido.
"We based it on as much as I could remember of your violin Talon gave you." Navi stated landing on Beat's shoulder.
"But we decided to carve the Kokiri emblem on it's side. We also painted into the engraving to make it stand out more." Saria said, pointing out the new addition.
"Do you like it?" Mido asked, shaking with suspense.
"No." replied Beat coldly. Mido and Saria looked down. Navi turned a lighter blue. Only Link, Archer, and Shiek saw the smile he hid. "I LOVE IT!!!"
He grabbed Mido and Saria and hugged them tightly. He cried with joy as he spun them around. "Oh thank you so much! I have to thank Sprout two." �he then dropped them and ran to the Deku Sprout.
"Navi, have Link teach him the forest's warp song. I have to leave now." Sheik requested as he prepared to leave. "Zelda will kill me if I'm late."
"Saria already taught him it." Navi answered.�
"Oh. Well then, tell him i said goodbye." Sheik then threw a Deku Nut to the ground and vanished.
"How do they do that?" asked Link.
