For the Sake of Friendship
Chapter 4
To Be Reunited With You
Author's Note: The story will start becoming more original. The Treasure Island parts of mutiny, sailing, treasure, that's still in there. I've changed it a little, just to match my story's theme! Enjoy!
After a few moments of peace, I realized that the men that were after the captain would soon arrive! I hurried into the house to see the doctor.
" Doctor, doctor!" I cried. I heard no reply. " Doctor?"
" Over here Link."
I followed the sound of his voice and found myself near my bed. I looked around the dark room and saw the doctor crying.
" Doctor Livesey?"
" I'm not sure why I'm crying, a rare occurrence. I've lost patients before and have barely shed a tear. This time it's different; I can't seem to stop myself. I'm not crying for the captain, I'm almost glad that man is dead.
" Is it Saria?" I asked.
" Yes my boy, your friend was very special and a great girl. She never worried about her well being, no, her concerns revolved around the safety of others. I'm dreadfully sorry Link; there was nothing I could do."
" It's alright Dr. Livesey, but have terrible news! Old ship mates of the captain will be coming her at 10 o'clock!"
" 10 o'clock? Why, that's in one hour from now!" the doctor picked up his things. " Come Jim, we mustn't stay here any longer."
I followed the doctor out of the house. We walked for a long time before I stopped him and ran back to the house.
" Link, where on earth do you think you're going?" the doctor called after me.
I didn't answer and I soon heard the tapping of his feet behind me. I ran to where the dead captain had fallen. I searched him for any possible key that would open his sea chest. I found it around his neck and tore it off. The doctor and I raced to where the chest was and opened it. Searching through the garments and loose pieces of money, we found a stack of papers. I grabbed them and the doctor collected a few trinkets he thought would be useful.
" Now Link, we must leave!" the doctor pushed me out the door.
We ran out of my house until we heard the tap taping of a stick.
" Oh no!" I pulled the doctor behind some bushes.
When I saw the blind beggar, I held my breath; he cowed me more than anything else. I saw that he was not alone.
" Pew, what do we do now?" a lubber called.
" Get in that there house and find Billy Bones!" the blind man ordered.
The sailors raced in and I soon heard the sound of tables being thrashed around. Finally, a sailor called for Pew.
" Billy Bones is dead!"
" What? Well, search him! Bring me Flint's Fist!" the blind man, Pew, yelled.
" It's not here, they've already to 'em!"
" Find that boy!" Pew screamed.
At that moment, I saw a small Kokiri run to the Great Deku Tree's Meadow. I was relieved; I knew the Deku Tree would help. When the men began their search, a gust a green magic shot them in different directions. Terrified, the left, leaving Pew behind.
" Get back here! You can't leave old Pew behind!" a gust a wind shot at his back and he fell the ground.
The doctor ran over to him and saw many small daggers in his back.
" He's dead."
We gathered our things and paid a visit to the Great Deku Tree.
" What is it young Link?"
" Great Deku Tree, thank you for saving us."
" We are forever in your debt," the doctor said.
" I did not save you, she did," the Deku Tree boomed.
I turned around and saw Saria before me. I didn't realize she looked a lot fainter and was almost transparent. I ran to her, but found myself on the ground. I had run right through her.
" Saria?"
" I'm sorry Link," she sobbed. " I'm not alive remember?"
" Oh, there has to be a way to bring you back!" I shouted.
" There is a way!" boomed the Great Deku Tree. " The papers you hold contain a map of an island. This island contains a treasure that can grant any wish, even revival of the dead."
" Then I have to go there."
" But Link..."
" Saria, I let that mean into my house and he killed you, I won't let you stay like this! Your my best friend!"
" I believe that Link has a point, I will also accompany him on his journey," the doctor announced.
Saria nodded in approval, and the three of us set out on our quest to find the treasure of dreams that would revive my only love, Saria.
