Link walked up to the front desk and hit the small bell. Malon walked up behind him trying to stay as close to him as she could. A creepy old hag came from behind the corner. "How may I help you?" The old hag asked while holding a cute looking cat in her arms. Malon looked at the cat and thought it was really cute, but the old hag gave her the creeps. The old hag grinned at them evilly, looking each of them slowly up and down. "I've got one room left," she finally said, "but I'm afraid it's only got one bed. That's not a problem, is it?"

"No its fine with us thank you," Malon smiled.

The old hag eyed her closely, "It's 36 Rupees for the night," the crone said, grinning again with her yellow teeth.

Link paid the old hag the 36 Rupees and waited for the key. She tosses the key onto the counter that read room 29.

Link picked it up and walked up the stairs with Malon by his side. After they reached room 29 Link unlocked it, and both of them walked in the room. The room had a double bed with white cotton blankets and sheets and pillows, the room had hard wood floors and walls and one window that showed the path to Death Mountain. And the room had a table with two chairs and there was desk with a mirror and a large white blow on it with a cloth on the side of it. There was a hot stove close to their bed with lots of fire wood next to it. And last there was a chamber pot that was under the bed (the toilet.)

"This room is really nice, don't you think Link?" Malon smiled at Link then looked out the window.

"Y...yeah I guess," Link sat down on the bed and looked around the room.

"So where are you gonna sleep?" Malon turned to face Link. He looked at her with a confused look on his face, "What do you mean where I'm gonna sleep on the bed where else would I sleep?" Link asked.

"Oh so I guess it won't bug you that you're gonna be sleeping with me, okay then but I get the window side." Malon sat on the bed next to Link with this big cocky cute smile on her face.

Link's face turned red like a cherry then, he got up off the bed and walked over by the window to stay far away from Malon. "No it won't bug me, I'm pretty sure it will bug you," he said not looking at her in the eye.

Malon smiled at Link and got back up off the bed, "He-he it won't bug me, if you remember I share the same bed with my dad well I use too." Link wouldn't look at her he just kept on looking out the window at Death Mountain trail.

"Well anyways let's get going to the graveyard..." Malon was trying to talk to Link. He didn't believe how so had changed over the past seven years. "Umm earth to Link! Did you hear me?" Malon yelled out.

Link snapped back to Malon and turned to face her, "What did you say again?" he asked.

"I said lets go to the graveyard now to get that thing!" Malon said again.

"What right now, shouldn't we rest for the night first?" Link asked. "It looks like it's getting dark out,"

Malon rolled her eyes at Link and shook her head. "Oh come on going to a graveyard at night is better, that's where all the Poe's and ghost come out, plus I think people would get mad at us if we try to break into someone's grave."

Link had to agree with her, since if they did break into Dampe's grave in the day time people would get mad. "Okay then, let's go"

Both Link and Malon left the Inn and headed out to the graveyard. The sun was setting, the sky was pink and orange, and with clouds that filled the sky high up. Link looked around to find the grave of Dampe. He even walked up to the royal tome that he broke when he was a kid, when he played Zelda's lullaby and lighting hit it and broke. Link hated that he had to go down in that dark hole alone filled with acid pits and ReDeads that suck the life out of you.
