Chapter 6: Reunions

Midna crossed her arms as she silently counted the different crates. Talon hefted another crate and placed it with the others.

"There, eight crates of Lon-Lon Milk." Said Talon, proudly.

"There's seven." Said Midna, turning to look at Talon.

The old man turned and counted them and visibly deflated when he counted seven instead of eight.

"Forgive me, ma'am, I'll get the other crate." Said Talon, turning to get the last crate.

"No need." Said Midna, before turning to Alfonzo, "Get the last crate for him, he's worked hard enough."

Alfonzo nodded and grabbed the last crate and placed it with the others.

"Oh, T-thank you." Said Talon, "You needn't have done that."

Midna rolled her eyes, "Talon, you're nearly eighty years old, it's not healthy for someone of your age to constantly carry crates that have twenty-five full bottles of milk in them."

Talon chuckle slightly, "Malon tells me the same, if she were here, I'd have been put in a chair by now."

"Where is Malon?" Asked Midna, looking around for the red head.

"She's at the market looking for a Bull, seeing as the last one caught some disease and had to put down." Said Talon, frowning at how he had to get a full stock of cows in as all of his previous had gone the same way as the bull, "Ingo is tending to the new cows now and filling up as many bottles as possible."

The door suddenly flung open and Link rushed in and promptly hid behind Midna. How the scene unfolded was a surprise to everyone. A short, blonde haired girl entered the milk bar and spotted Link. Grabbing an empty glass she hurled it at Link, who ducked behind Midna again.

"A year and a half and all you say is 'Bollocks'!" Screamed the girl, prompting Alfonzo to try and restrain her. Try being the operative word, as the next anyone knew, Alfonzo was one the floor clutching is balls.

"Ex-girlfriend I presume?" Asked Midna, looking at Link, who was white as a sheet.

"Worse, she's my sister." Said Link, looking terrified.

Midna looked at the girl hurling glasses at the various people who tried to get between her and Link, Alfonzo still writhing on the floor in pain, while a Sheikah woman made her way up behind her. Looking at the girl, Midna could see a relation. Which brought one question to the front of her mind.

"What did you do?" Asked Midna, looking down at the cowering man that hid a courageous Captain.

"I wish I knew." Said Link, before a shoe hit him in the face.

"ARYLL!" Yelled the Sheikah Woman, finally restraining the girl.

Link got up off the floor holding his face, as blood ran from his nose, Talon quickly evicted any people who weren't part of the affected group. The Sheikah woman grabbed two chairs and placed them facing each other and made the girl, Aryll, sit on one of them. A third member to Aryll's party appeared, another blonde who had her hand holding onto a pendent shaped like the Tri-Force that hung from her neck.

Link then tried to slip out of the door, only to be stopped by the Sheikah woman grabbing hold of his ear. Midna idly wondered if the woman was Link's mother.

Link was then forced to sit on the chair opposite of his sister.

"Talk. Now." Said the Sheikah woman, folding her arms. Alfonzo hauled himself off the floor, his face riddled with pain. It was then Midna remembers that Alfonzo had been shot in the groin three months back, so the pain of having his jewels knocked would've been doubled by that still healing wound.
