A Kink In Time - A Legend of Zelda FanFic (Ocarina of Time)

Chapter 12

Kneeling there, in pure daylight, was my best friend from my world, Jordan. It was obvious that it was her, however she must have had her hair dyed, because instead of the normal brown it always was, it was the color she had always wanted it to be. Purple!

She also didn't have the same clothes she would normally be wearing on. Instead, she had a long, purple robe, embroidered with the crest of Hyrule on the shoulder, and an intricate design on the bottom. All around the edge was red, and in the kneeling position she was in, I couldn't even see her shoes. Just like in our world, she was... Chubby. Let's just put it that way.

She turned her head, and saw me. Her face went pale, and I saw her eyes change from a deep maroon, to the normal blue they were in my world. She smiled at me for a millisecond, and I thought for sure she realized who I was. But then, she shook her head, and her eyes went back to that evil, deep maroon. As she looked away, I noticed something else: a golden jewel in the center of her forehead.

"Did you see her?" Zelda asked.

"Uhh... Yeah. Zelda, I'm afraid... I know her. She is from my world... And my best friend... But here, she's different. She's not the Jordan that I know." I looked down. Link was shocked, and Zelda shared that emotion.

"Y-your world?!?" She asked. I sighed, and told her all about it, everything. She nodded, finally understanding.

"I still don't understand how she might have gotten here, as a replacement for this man, Ganondorf, of which you speak." She told me. "Any ideas about that?"

"Well... I guess I wasn't evil enough to be aq replacement for him. She was a little more of a... Delinquent than me. She liked being bad. So, he sent her here as his replacement. Why her, instead of a criminal or a murderer, I have no idea." I frowned. Was I going to have to kill my own best friend, who was the equivalent of a sister to me???

"Well, regardless of this... Strange turn of events... I believe my dream to be of prophecy. It showed me a forest girl, and a forest boy, rising up from the ashes of an evil kingdom, and returning it to prosperity. They both held a similar sword... One that I think would have to be... The Master Sword. However... There is only one sword... I don't know how, but in the dream the boy and the girl held identical swords, which could only mean... Both of you must go, and collect the other two Spiritual Stones! They are the key to opening the Door of Time, which guards the Master Sword! There is one more Key, but that is only to be touched by a descendant of the Royal Family... So, I cannot give it to you, unless there was no one left in the Royal Family that could use it to open the door. Do you understand? You must get those stones, and you must use them to open the Door of Time! We cannot let her, this Jordan, get her hands on that sword! She is evil in this world, you have to understand that! If she can get the sword... She can get the Triforce! And... If that happened... Hyrule will be in desolation! Okay?" She asked.

"Yes, I understand, Princess!" Link said, nudging me.

"We will do it Princess, I promise you!" I said.

"Good... Now, this letter may help you. Take it." I grabbed it before Link could, putting it carefully in my bag. "My attendant will show you out. Now, go forth, heroes!" She said, and I saw Impa appear.

"I am Impa, Zelda's attendant. There is a song which is passed down by the royal family. I have named it Zelda's Lullaby, because I used to play it for her to get her to go to sleep. Pull out your Ocarinas, and I will teach it to you. It may serve as a password for some places throughout Hyrule." She pulled out a harp, and played it three times.

I stared back at her blankly. I had no idea how to actually play an Ocarina without the C-buttons!

"Excuse me, Impa? Umm.... Could you show me the a Ocarina fingerings?" I asked.

Link nodded his head, agreeing with me. "Yeah, I don't know them either."

She sighed. "What do you mean, you don't know?! Whoever gave these to you should have at least taught you to play them!" She sighed again. "Fine. Hand me them , and I'll draw arrows above each hole. Then, just cover the hole that corresponds with the arrow, and you'll have it easy. I'll even write down the song in a songbook for each of you, and you can keep all the songs you learn in it. Ok?"

We nodded, handed her our Ocarinas, she drew the arrows on them, and then gave them back to us along with a songbook with the left-up-right left-up-right of Zelda's Lullaby written in it. She played it again, and seemed satisfied when we played it back for her on our Ocarinas.

She led us up a staircase, until finally she had us and her jump off the side of the castle, and into Hyrule Field. "Over there is Kakariako Village, where I used to live. There is a pathway up Death Mountain from there, and you will find a race called Gorons there. They have the Spiritual Stone of Fire. Go up there and get it! The fate of Hyrule depends on you!" She told us, and backed up, throwing something at the ground, and disappearing.

I looked over at Link, who was dumbfounded by her disappearance."Well, I suppose it's time I show you Kakariako Village, Link. Come on!"
