"Link, what? How?!" Legolas said looking at me in a manner I thought meant disgust. I would find out later that my next actions would lead to some trouble. Anyway as I said before I thought it meant he was disgusted at the idea of me thinking we could be brothers.
"See this is why I didn't tell you! I knew you would immediately think that we weren't equal. That's right you think I'm not good enough to be related to you! Well, sorry I ever thought it!" Angry with him I jumped down the loft ladder and headed outside. As soon as I was out of the barn I grabbed Epona by the reins, put my foot into the stirrup and pulled myself up.
"Link where are you headed? You better be back before dinner or I'll call out a search team!" Yelled Malon as I left the yard.
I rode Epona as hard and fast as I could all the way to the edge of kokiri forest. I knew she wouldn't enter the tunnel, in fear of the wooden bridge so I left her there and walked the rest of the way to the lost woods myself. As I walked under the trees I felt the coolness of the forest around me. It was a beautiful day with not a cloud in the sky and with the sun shining through the green leaves everything looked exotic. I could faintly here Saria playing her ocarina as I came closer and closer to where she always was. Finally I reached her and there she was.
Sitting on the same stump as always, she didn't even look up as I entered just kept playing till the song ended. When the song was over she looked up at me and smiled till she saw my face. "Link what's wrong? You look worried." As she said this I sat down next to her on the stump, and she put her arm around my shoulders.
"Well, I said some things I probably shouldn't have said to Legolas today and now that I think back on it I know I was wrong and..."
"Link you're not making sense...again." She said this with a smile on her face. Not a 'haha that's so funny Link's being stupid again,' smile but a comforting one. One that made me feel I could tell her everything and then everything would magically be all right. I used to believe that she could turn everything good again when I was younger, but of course now I know this isn't true. Sighing I told her about everything. " Now I'm starting to think he was just confused about my idea instead of disgusted...oh man why did I have to yell at him?!" I said slamming my fist down on the stump. Saria looked at me with sad eyes but smiled that comforting smile.
"I'm sure he'll forgive you. He probably knows you were just upset over sharing such a huge idea. He's probably still sitting in that loft all alone feeling sorry for whatever he did. Maybe you could still apologize?" She suggested softly, without any force in her words.
"You're right like always...thanks for the advice Sar!" I yelled as I ran back to Epona. Leaping on her back I rode home as fast as I could, hoping Legolas would still be in the loft. Sadly my wish was not to be granted.
As soon as I got back to Lon Lon Ranch I knew there was something wrong. After being the Hero of Time for so long this came as a sixth sense. Sliding off Epona I walked into the main house. There was a fire lit, giving an orange glow to the room. Malon sat next to her father on the couch, crying into his shoulder. Talon sat comforting his daughter, tears running down his own cheeks. Ingo sat in the corner his face looking a tad bit sadder then its usual furious glare.
Rushing to Malons side she grabbed me in a great bear hug, crying onto my tunic. "Oh Link it's horrible! It's just so horrible! He's gone...he doesn't know how it is out there..."
My eyes widened with terror when she said that. For the first time since walked in the room, I realized Legolas wasn't there. Grabbing Malon by the shoulders I looked her right and the eyes and asked in a quiet voice, "Where is he."
She looked at me with horror in her eyes, as she had rarely left her ranch except for the market also. Malon would never admit it but she was scared of the rest of hyrule too. "A little after you left on Epona he came and here and told me he was leaving. He told me Gandalf was waiting for him in the market and then they would both go home. So he packed and left. Then three hours after he was gone Daddy came home and said he hadn't seen Gandalf anywhere in the market, but he had saw Legolas heading towards Death Mountain alone." Her voice quivered with every word. "Link you have to go find him...he doesn't know anything about Hyrule!" Nodding I ran back out of the house and re-saddled Epona. Just as I left the ranch it started raining. And you know when it rains in Hyrule, it's never a good sign.
A/N will Legolas be safe? Will link make it to him? Will Epona fall and get injured because of mud? Who knows...you do if you read the next chapter!
