IN THIS SCENE:
Link, the hero!
Navi, the musical fairy!
Saria, the annoyingly perky best friend!
Mido, the jerk!
Deku Tree, the... TREE!
Misc. Other Kokiri

(Scene: Kokiri Forest. Navi and Link race out of Link's house, and Link sees someone running up to the house. It is Saria, Link's best friend and the only person in this whole stinkin' forest who likes him.)

Saria: [singing]
YAHOO!
Hi Link!
Why don't you come on down?
Why don't you wear a smile
Instead of that old frown?

Link: Boy Saria, you sure are annoyingly perky today.

Saria: Hey Link! Isn't that a fairy?

Link: Yes, actually, it is!

Saria: Wow! I'm so happy for you! You finally have a fairy to call your own!

Navi: Hey, I'm his fairy, not his slave!

Saria: Oh hush! You should be like MY fairy, and keep quiet!

Navi: Fairies are supposed to keep quiet? That's ridiculous! All we wanna do is talk!

Saria: Well of course!

Navi: Hey, I thought you were nice and annoyingly perky!

Saria: Yeah right! Tee hee hee!

Link: Stop it you two. I need to go see the Deku Tree!

Saria: You do?

{"Romeo and Juliet"}

Saria: FINALYYYYY!
A FAIRY'S COME TO THEE!
AND NOW THE DEKU TREEEEEEEE
WILL HELP YOU SEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE...

Link: [sticks fingers in ears] OWWW! OK, OK, enough singing!

Navi: What do you mean? This is a musical!

Link: It IS? Oh crap!

All Kokiri: [singing]
Oh crap! Oh crap!
Linky should take a nap!
He doesn't want a musical
But would he like a rap?

{rap beat}

Navi:
My name is Navi!
I am a fairy!
I may look cute
But I really am scary!
My buddy Link
Don't like to sing
To him a lot of pain I'll bring!
BOOM! CHI! BOOM, BOOM, BOOM CHI!

Link: STOP IT!

{Music stops}

Link: Whoever's idea it was to make this a musical really has something wrong with his or her head!

GG: [voice] Don't make me add a song here, Linky-Poo!

Link: OK, OK, OK, sorry! Come on Navi, let's go see the Deku Tree.

(Link and Navi run across the forest to the path hat leads to the Deku Tree's meadow. They are stopped by Mido, who is standing in their way)

Mido: Where d'ya think YOU'RE going, Mr. No-Fairy?

Link: Gee Mido, what a creative nickname. Did you make it up ALL BY YOURSELF?

Mido: Aw, shut up!

Link: And anyway, I have a fairy now, nimrod! Check this out!

[He grabs Navi and holds her right in Mido's face. Mido gasps]

Navi: HA! In your face, Space Coyote!

[Link and Mido throw Navi a weird look, and shrug]

Mido: Who says the Great Deku Tree summoned YOU, Mr. Guy Formerly Known As Mr. No-Fairy?

Link: The Deku Tree, DUUHHHH!

Mido: You're joking! Why would the almighty Grand Poobah of the Forest, The Great Deku Tree ever want to talk to YOU?

Link: Beats me, I just got summoned.

Mido: HARUMPH! Well... If you wanna go see the Deku Tree, you might as well get properly equipped, you spaz! You should get a sword and a shield, and THEN I'll let you by!

Link: How about you let me by before I beat your head to a bloody senseless pulp?

Mido: How about I snap my fingers and have all the Kokiri in this forest beat YOU into a bloody senseless pulp?

Link: [grumbling]

Navi: Come on Link, let's show that Pickle Weasel we can get a sword and shield!

Link: PICKLE WEASEL?

Navi: Just... COME ON!

(Scene: Back in front of Link's house Saria is still waiting for Link. He and Navi come running up. Er, running and flying up.)

Saria: How was the Deku Tree?

Link: Well, I'll tell you when Mido lets me through.

Saria: Oh, that jerk! Hmmph. I can't BELIEVE he has a crush on me! GA-ROSS!

Link: He says I need a sword and shield.

Saria: Oh, that's probably true. Weird things have been happening around the forest lately...

Link: Like what?

Saria: Just... stuff? I have a bad feeling that something bad is going to happen soon! Maybe it's Destiny that you were called.

Chorus Singers: [angelically]
DEEEESTIIIIIINYYYY!

[All three look around confusedly]

Link: Who said that?

Navi: Beats me.

Saria: Eh. Well, you can buy a shield at the shop for 40 Rupees, but there is only one sword hidden in the forest.

Link: Where is that hidden?

Saria: I can't tell you that it's hidden in a tunnel on the hill right next to your house!

[She realizes what she just said]

Saria: Oops.

Link: OK, bye Saria!

[He and Navi run off to get the sword]

(Scene: Link crawls through a small tunnel near a hill. He looks around and sees a huge boulder rolling around.)

Link: Ah, OK, let me go check this out.

Navi: WATCH OUT FOR THE BOULDER!

Link: Uh, yeah Navi, it's a boulder! WOOO!

Navi: You better watch out or it'll smush ya.

Link: I'm not stupid, Navi, I know when to move and when I'm going to get smushed by a...

[The boulder rolls over and smushes him]

Navi: LINK OL' BUDDY OL' PAL! YOU OK?

Link: {singing}
Rollin', rollin', rollin'...
I think my head is swollen!
That boulder just rolled over my
BACKSIIIIIIIIDE!

Navi:
LOOK A BUG!
LOOK A ROCK!
LOOK A WEED!
LOOK A BLOCK!
LOOK A CHEST!
LOOK A GRASS!
LOOK A CHEST!

{Someone whistles the rest of the song as Link gets up and brushes himself off.}

Link: Good grief, the author needs to hire a lyricist.

Navi: No kidding. OK, let's get that sword.

Chorus Singers: [Tap dancing up a tower with external spiral staircase]
TO MAKE A LOOONG STORY SHORT!
THIS PART OF THE SCRIPT WE WILL ABORT!
WHEN SHE LAUGHS, GG WILL GIVE A SNORT!

GG: Hey, that's not true! Uh, maybe it is, but...

Chorus Singers:
TO MAKE A LOOOONG STORY SHORT!
HE GOT THE SWOOOOOOORD...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Navi: Woo, wow, what a fight! We finally got this Kokiri Sword from the inconspicuously placed chest over here!

Link: Good thing! Now all we need is a shield!

(Scene: Link is back in the forest searching for Rupees)

Link: I'll break this rock, and then... BAAAH! A heart! I don't want a heart!

Navi: Hey, how do hearts come out of rocks anyway? Isn't that a bit gruesome?

Link: Hey, yeah... maybe this game should be rated T for Teen.

Chorus Singers: [tap dancing up an external spiral staircase]
TO MAKE A LOOONG STORY SHORT!
PART OF THIS SCENE WE WILL ABORT!
WE HOPE THIS FIC DOESN'T TAKE US ALL TO COURT!
TO MAKE A LOOONG STORY SHORT!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

(Scene: Link shows up at the path to the Deku Tree, and talks to Mido again)

Mido: AAAAH MR. NO FAIRY KIIIIID!
HEARD YOU GOT THE SWORD?
YOU DIDN'T...

Link: I DIIIIIIIID!

Mido: Shoot. How did you get to be the favorite of the Saria and the Deku Tree and the others?

Link: The others hate me!

Other Kokiri: [All together]
NO WE DON'T! WE LIKE YOU!

Link: WAAAAA? Hey, last scene you were calling me names!

Navi: This is a cheesy musical, of course people's moods change by the second.

Link: Hmm. Well I got a sword, and I got a shield so BOOYAH MIDO, and let me through!

Mido: I WILL NEVER ACCEPT YOU!

Saria: Oh who cares what you think Mido, you big dumb dork?

[Mido cringes]

Link: OK, going through now!

[Pushes Mido aside and walks to the Deku Tree's meadow]

(Scene: The Deku Tree's meadow. Triumphant music starts as the "Ballad of the Great Deku Tree" begins.)

Deku Tree: [singing]
NAVIIII!
THOU HAST COME BACK TO ME!

Navi:
YES TREE! INDEED I HAVE!

Deku Tree:
LINKYYY!
I AM THE SINGING DEKU TREE!
AND I WANT TO TALK TO THEEEEE!

Link: [low]
What did you NEEEEEED?

Deku Tree: [clears throat, singing]
Thy sleep these past few nights must have been restless...

Link:
Yes, they were!

Deku Tree:
The climate of evil descending upon this land!

Navi:
On THIS land?

Deku Tree:
It invokes nightmares in the psychological and subconscious minds of certain individuals who are sensitive to the delicate balance of good and evil in this universe...

{Music stops}

Link and Navi: WHAT?

Deku: Uh...
{music starts}
Verily thou hast felt it...

Link and Navi: [Squeaky]
WE HAST FELT IT!

{Sad violin music}

Deku Tree:
Allow me to tell you a story...
That is very sad and involves big old me...
I, THE ALMIGHTY DEKU TREE
HAVE HAD A CURSE PUT UPON ME!

Link: A curse?

Deku Tree: Yes, a curse...
[singing]
A wicked man of the desert he has cast this curse on me...
And it's sucking out my power painfully and quite slowly...
So I was wondering if you'd please
Step past my bark and past my leaves
{Majestically and opera like}
SO THAT THIS CURSE COULD BE BROKEN, SEE?
OH PLEASE, LINK-YYYYY...

Link: Uh, why me?

Deku Tree:
BECAUSE I TOLD YOU SOOOOO!

Link: But why?

Deku Tree: [speeding up]
I CAN'T TELL YOU BECAUSE IT WOULD RUIN THE PLOT OF THE REST OF THIS PART OF THE GAME!
AND I ALSO CAN'T TELL YOU THE RACE THAT YOU ARE, OR EVEN YOUR MOM'S AUNT'S GRANDMA'S NAAAAAAAME...
[whispering]
...was Gertrude!

Link: Uh, OK, I guess I'll do it.

Deku Tree:
AAAH! THANK YOU SO!
YOU WON'T GO UNREWARDED, THIS I KNOW!
BECAUSE I SEE SO MUCH IN THEE...
A HINT OF DESTINY!

Chorus Singers: [Angelically]
DEEESTIIIINYYYY!

[Music stops. Link, Navi, and the Deku Tree look around confusedly.]

Deku Tree: Uh, who said that?

Link: No clue. They've been at it all morning.

Navi: Uh, you were saying...

Deku Tree: Oh yes. [clears throat]
IF THOU HAST COURAGE ENOUGH
TO GO INSIDE OF ME
AND BREAK THE CURSE THAT BINDS ME SOUL
AND SET MY SPIRIT FREEEEEE!

Link: Uh, dude, I'm breaking the curse, not KILLING you.

Deku Tree: Oh yeah. Huh, I wonder why that was in the script. Uh, so anyway...
COME ONE, COME ALL YE KOKIRI
COME SEE THE BOY OF DESTINY

Chorus Singers: [Angelically]
DEEESTIIINYYYY!

[Deku Tree looks around confusedly as he sings]

Deku Tree:
... STEP IN MY MOUTH AND SET ME FREE!
SO SAYS THE MIGHTY DEKU TREE!

Kokiri: SO SAYS THE MIGHTY DEKU TREE!
COME SEE THE MIGHTY DEKU TREE!

Link: I'M GONNA SAVE THE DEKU TREE!

Navi: HEY WAIT UP LINK, PLEASE WAIT FOR ME!

Deku Tree: GET IN THERE SON, IT'S ALMOST THREEEEEEEEEEEEE-EEEE-EEEE-EEE-EEEEE!

[A quick pause, then everyone sings at once]

All: SO SAYS THE MIGHTY DEKU TREE!

{All the singers except Link, Navi and Deku Tree disappear.}

Deku Tree: OK Link, stop talking and start walking. GET IN MY BELLY!

[The Deku Tree opens his mouth, and Link fixes his pants, and steps inside the mouth of the Deku Tree to break its curse and save the world. Uh... OK, just pretend you didn't hear that part about saving the world.]
