This story takes place a little bit before my story Free Me. But this one is on Zelda and Link. Like I said most of my stories will connect and I also said it won't always be about the same people. On with the story.

Edit as of June 26, 2009

I went back and reread this fic and I laughed at how silly I was at times. But I winced at the many missing words in my fic. I apologize for that and as of right now, I'm currently fixing the missing words. But I won't be fixing any story endings or word choice. I'm trying to preserve and remember how I write. Hee, hee, it makes me laugh, and even gives me ideas! So, please bear with me as I edit, thanks for reading, and enjoy!

Chapter 1

A Visitor's Welcome

"So don't leave me in suspense. What happened?"

Samus and Zelda had gone down to the cafeteria early to talk. Zelda looked around to check every door.

Samus groaned. "I promise you Peach won't be here for awhile. She's probably organizing her room still."

Zelda turned back. "Okay, so after the whole incident, I met Link outside. I told him I wanted to thank him for saving me from those guys."

Samus nodded. "Yeah, you told me about that. If anyone did that to me I would hunt them down and kill them!" she looked at Zelda. "Sorry, Zel… continue. How did you thank him?"

"Well, I gave him a handshake." She knew Samus was going to say something. She stopped her in time. "Wait there's more!" She pushed some of her blonde locks back. "After the handshake, he started to leave."Zelda watched Samus focus out of the corner of her eye. She continued. "I called his name and he came back. I told him there was one more thing. Then I leaned in and kissed him."

"Zelda, I'm so proud of you!"

"It was only a short kiss and then I told him it was just a thank-you kiss," Zelda said while turning red remembering that day.

Samus' enthusiasm turned to a frown. "Aww jeez, Zelda. Why did you go and say that to him? Now he'll really believe it. Link can be gullible sometimes you know."

Zelda put her head down. "I know."

Samus crossed her arms and looked up at the ceiling. "Let's just hope he doesn't believe you."

Noise was heard as Samus spoke those last words. Yoshi and Kirby came booming into the kitchen. Pikachu and Pichu were riding on Yoshi. They both knew they were all trying to get first dibs. Soon Ganondorf and his gang, Mewtwo (He's still nice to everyone), Bowser, and DK walked in. They sat down at a table far from the others they claimed as their own. Then the little kids came in. Actually, Popo, Nana, Young Link, and Ness raced in.

Zelda tried to talk to change subject. "So… you miss Marth?"

Samus turned quickly and sighed. "Yes, more than ever. But he'll be back after he returns from whatever the people in Altea wanted to see him about. But I can't stand it while he's gone."

Zelda giggled. "You'll live."

"I don't know about that, Zel. Hey, what about this? Link is training right now. Let's go see if we can talk to him there."

"No, Sam. I can't interrupt his training. You know how he gets when interrupted."

"He won't care if it's you."

"I don't know. I'm just not sure."

Samus rolled her eyes. "I swear, you 15 year olds. When you turn 16 in the next couple of weeks, can you promise me that you won't be so fearful of the guy?"

"Yeah…16. It'll be great."

"And wouldn't it be the best birthday gift if you were Link's girlfriend?"

Zelda blushed thinking about that. "Well that would be nice."

"Sammie, Zellie!"

Samus and Zelda turned around to see Peach. She was accompanied by another girl who looked about 16. She had long black hair down to her waist and lively big purple eyes. She was wearing a purple spaghetti strap top and shoes to match, with blue jeans.

"Girls, I would like you to meet Veronica. She's the daughter of the man who made the SSBM Company. He told us his daughter wanted to stay and meet us all. So she'll be hanging around the mansion for a few weeks."

"Hey, I'm Samus." Samus waved before turning to Zelda. "...and this is Zelda."

Zelda smiled. "Hi."

Veronica finally spoke. "It's nice to meet you all."

"We're all going to be roommates. It'll be exciting." Peach exclaimed.

"We'll be looking forward to it." Samus got up and Zelda as well. "We better get going."

"Oh wait. I came to ask you guys if Veronica can stay with you guys. I have to run to the hospital wing. Pichu and Pikachu fell into the lipstick bush and since the lipsticks weren't picked yet the thorns are still in them and they cause you to get really weak. Anyway can she come with you?"

"I promise not to be a burden." Veronica said softly.

"Of course you can come. We're not doing anything major right now anyway. Right, Sam?" Zelda said smiling in relief for the plans being ruined.

Samus was pretty angry with the plans being ruined. But she nodded. "Sure…nothing" she muttered.

When Peach left, Veronica sighed. "I hope I didn't ruin anything."

"No, of course not." Zelda said. "Let's go do something els-

"Oh you're not getting out of this." She grabbed Zelda's arm and dragged her in the direction of the SSBM teleporting room. She looked at Veronica. "Come on, Veronica. We're going to Hyrule temple."

"But I'm sure she'll want to do something more fun than this." Zelda protested as she fought off Samus' grip.

"I'm sure I can handle whatever it is." Veronica said giggling.

"Exactly, come on." Samus said.

Zelda bit her lip while she was helplessly dragged away.


"Link, when will I be able to use the Master Sword?"

Link and Young Link were on their break resting. Young Link had many questions about his older self's life.

"In time, Young Link." Link took a swig of his water. "Come on let's practice again."

"But I never pass this test."

"Come on. You'll never get any better if you don't try. Let's go."

Samus, Veronica, and Zelda made it safely to Hyrule Temple. Link nor Young Link noticed them. This gave Zelda the advantage.

Veronica turned to Samus. "So what are we doing here?"

"Just trying to hook up two people is all." Samus said eyeing her prey.

Veronica looked in the same direction. "You mean that guy? I met him earlier this morning, and was starstruck. I've always wanted to meet Link."

Zelda nodded while watching.

Link was standing against the wall. "Alright, just shoot the arrow above my head."

Young Link gulped nervously. He pulled out an arrow and aimed.

Samus turned to Zelda. "When they're done, you're going down there."

Zelda gasped. "No! I'm not ready!" She turned the other way and ran.

"Oh no you don't, Zel get back here." Samus ran after her leaving Veronica by herself.

"Wait, you didn't say you had fire arrows!" Link shouted.

Link shouting caused Young Link to panic and let go of his shot. "What?"

Link eyes widened as the arrow came fast towards him.

Young Link saw this and covered his eyes. "Oh no!"

The arrow landed above Link's head. He sighed in relief, but panicked again when he found out his hat was on fire.

"Put it out! Put it out!" he shouted. Someone poured water over Link's head. Link looked up and saw who it was.

"Veronica? What are you doing here?"

Veronica grabbed Link's arm gently. "Forget me, are you okay?"

"Um… yeah. Thanks."

Veronica handed him his hat. "I saved it for you."

Link took it and smiled. "Thank you."

Veronica giggled. "It was nothing really. I know how much you love this hat."

She stopped and looked at him. "Oh Link. You have a cut on your forehead."

She moved in close to him and moved her hands to where his cut was. "We have to get this treated. Young Link, hurry and tell Doctor Mario."

Young Link did as he was told and ran to the teleporting room.

Samus was able to stop Zelda and drag her back. "Come on this is your big break."

"Sam I can't… what if he thinks if I'm weird, what if he runs away. Or-

Zelda looked up and stopped talking. She gasped in horror to see Veronica holding Link's hand and walking away. Both of them were smiling and talking.

Zelda felt her heart sank. "No." she whispered.

So here's the first chapter. Not much will tell you what this story is about in this chapter but in the next few chapters it will. Review if you want to!
