"Here" Link stared at my hands confused when I handed him the fire arrow, or what it's called in the game. This is the gem that has to be attached to the bow in order to create arrows that shoot fire "what are you surprised about? I told you what it does, give it a shot" he held the palm size rock and threw it up in the air like a ball "it's not a toy!"

"How do I use this?" Heck do I know? He took off his bow from between his arm and shoulder and pulled on a regular arrow. I stood right close to his chest to attach it to his bow. It stuck on like glue. Eyes stared dead at me. I looked up to see him staring at me. I blushed, not looking away

Since he's gotten his love piece back... He never stops looking at me like that. It always makes me feel nervous and embarrassed

"W-what are you looking at..?" He smiled a little

"I..." His smile dropped and looked back at the bow. He... Seems nervous "n-nothing..." I stared at him aiming his arrow "so... Just shoot?" I nodded, pointing at the fire torch I set up in Zora's domain. I forgot that many of them were staring at us... They wanted to see what a fire arrow can do since I mention it. Looks like I'm the only one to know it exist.

I got it when staying up all night roaming around the domain, the fountain, and even Lake Hylia. When the morning sun raised, I stole Link's bow he likes having in his possession, and shot it at the sun to receive the fire... Gem, I guess? It just fell from the sky, which was weird, but at least I have it

"Yeah, just shoot like you always do" he pulled back the string, making the fire start. He freaked a little, I held his shoulders from behind to make him focus "it's not going to hurt you... Shoot where I told you to" he nodded and shot the fire arrow at the torch, setting it on fire. Link looked beyond amazed as well as the zoras, who clapped at what they just witnessed. I smiled happily at Link "great job!"

"That was cool! Is there other like this?"

"Two more. We'll get them another time, but let's use this for the moment" Our time in the domain was peaceful and relaxing. Everyone was recovering quickly and it's lovely to watch how everyone is back to normal. Seeing the smiles on everyone's faces, My heart felt so warm that I started humming softly and jumped to the water to spin around gracefully. I was in a great mood... Even if I didn't get any sleep last night, I felt like I found my peace and accepted myself as who I am now. I'm growing and I have the goddess of time by my side. Now I feel like I can do anything

"Oh youth..." I sang the ballad of the goddess "guided by the servant of the goddess, unite earth and sky, and bring light to the land... Oh youth, show the two whirling sails the way to the light tower..." My vision showed me a memory of seeing a play through of skyward sword, staring at my point of view from a island and watching Skyloft from a far and noticed a red Loftwing flying towards me. I continued singing "and before you... A path shall open, and a heavenly song..." My vision showed me my point of view staring at Link talking to his pointy green hat in annoyance, his face was covered in makeup, then at me before laughing "you shall hear..." My last vision showed me of Link standing in front of a sword in a pedestal before pulling it and become four Links wearing different colored tunics.

I stopped spinning around in a dance and stared at the wall, feeling my tears continuing to fall... Why am I crying..? I picked up a tear and stared at it. It looked like it had a hint of light inside it before dripping off my finger. I wiped them all off and scurried over to Link waiting for me. The zoras were clapping and cheering for my performance. I actually forgot anyone was in the room

"Come on, let's get back to Kakariko before anything happens" I told Link

"What's going to happen?" I avoided the question and looked at the zoras
