       I woke up at around 13:30 the next day.

        "Link, my wonderful Hero of Time, it's time to awaken yet again," the soft, calming, peaceful voice of Princess Zelda spoke. I had myself standing faster than you could say "Hello world."

        "Good afternoon, your highness," I said with a bow. Both of us chuckled.

        "What did you find out last night?" she asked.

        "After I was done with my nightly tasks at the place, I ended up in the same room I went to directly last night. I saw a very muscular animatronic and asked Peter (I named the A.I. while I was there) about it. He said it wasn't in their databases."

        "Let me pause you right there," Sara said, "We need to think about that statement."

        "Oh," I said suddenly with concern, "I see what you mean. Peter could be lying to us for whoever has Din's parasite, he could be telling the truth and saw the animatronic unregistered as it entered. Anyways, I shook in fear as I looked at the reflection in the glass and saw it. I was suddenly faded into eternal blindness, yet I was able to see her in the white, blinding world. I finally learned she was the Goddess Farore. I suddenly felt the sudden snap of a strange and courageous power flowing through my veins as everything faded back to be. I finally had answers and a grip on my fear. After that, I walked down the hall carefully and took a right to find there were now only three locked doors instead of four. I opened the newly unlocked door and walked in. There was a long corridor and a flashlight on the wall to my right. I immediately took it and turned it on to see another miniature bunny animatronic, this one with at least thirty-three cone-shaped teeth. I turned it off for three seconds and turned it back on to notice it hopped onto the floor out of its little wooden chair at the very end of the hall as well as a white "X" about four feet from me. I turned my light off again but turned it back on as soon as I heard shuffling. It was inches away from the "X" at this point. Within a half second, I quickly flipped my flashlight off and on and landed the animatronic on the "X" there. A square chunck of the ceiling suddenly disappeared into itself as the whirring of metalic fulcrums rubbed against the cold mechanism that was a claw. It had four arms like the grab-n-go games often found in restaurants. They picked the animatronic up, and everything disappeared back into the ceiling. As soon as I heard the noise of a lock making itself not tense, I looked behind me and saw the door was open ajar. I decided to walk through the hall a little and turn right and saw exactly what I was hoping to see. Once I found out the doorway wasn't a door, I broke the glass and walked in, flashlight at about fifty percent. I found a shelf with a few things on it, grabbed one of them, put it in my pocket, picked it up, and carefully yet quickly maneuvered through the floor of the hospital, for I imagined the animatronics had notice the crashing of glass. One of the animatronics did manage to scratch me as you can see here," I said, pulling up my sleeve to show her the long and deep gashes in my upper right arm.

        For a few minutes, I could hear nothing but the central heater blowing throughout the house.

        "What did you find?" she asked with a bit of joy.

        "I think you should go look up on my parents' bed and find out yourself," I responded. She immediately ran up the stairs with no idea I was smirking downstairs. Stomp. Stomp. Stomp. All the way down the stairs she came back to excitingly ask:

        "Why didn't you tell me sooner?"

        "She wanted to see you anyway, so I figured I'd surprise you."

        "How is it even possible?"

        "Think about what items I found and what I took."

        "Oh my! I can't BELIEVE you found her at all."

        "That's the good news about last night," I said, serious again.

        "What- what's the bad news?"

        "With the power given to me by the Goddess Farore came the power to sense evil. I sensed an evil far greater than anything I've ever seen let alone felt."
