To be honest, no one knew how it started. It was supposed to be a good game night at Lon Lon ranch.
Malon watched the chaos confusedly, while her father was only making it worse.
See, the chain were all playing a different game. Legend somehow got his checker pieces and was playing with Wild, whom had stored chess pieces in his slate. Both had a layout of cards underneath, all different colors as they played. Wind was looking smug as he hoarded all the tokens in a game from his era called, poker. Time was playing old maid and Hyrule was playing a game called go fish. Twilight was somehow playing catan with Warriors who was doing a game called Sorry. Sky was playing uno and Four argued with himself as he played monopoly. Somehow, they all were sitting in a circle and were calling out things to one another.
"Hey uhh... Guys? What are we playing?" Wind asked, blinking as Hyrule said 'Go fish' and dug through the pile of cards.
"Chutes and Ladders." Talon said with a completely deadpan expression.
"Dad you're not helping!" Malon cried.
"I know."
"Oh! Okay thank you! Wait. Whats Chutes and Ladders?" Wind asked.
"Wait you don't got chutes and ladders in your time? Tragic. Its a great game."
"No they should pay me and then I cam move my car piece over and buy Park Place!" Four muttered, his eyes flashing different colors in the light.
"You okay Four?" Sky asked, looking at Four.
"Yeah, I just. I need more money, and SOMEONE is refusing to pay me." Four glared at Warriors.
Warriors shrugged, bumping Four's car. "Sorry."
Wild cheered. "Checkmate!"
Legend laughed. "Yes, but now..." he paused, waiting for a dramatic effect. "I make this a king! Aha! That is my fourth king!"
Twilight stared at Time in silence as he put down a town on the water's edge.
Time placed down two pairs of cards, the same image reflected.
Hyrule giggled, calling out "Go fish Time!" and Time sighed.
Malon watched as the chaos around her increased in volume.
Suddenly, a knock on the door drew Malon's attention away and she turned. Weaving between the scattered pieces and laid out cards that splattered their living room floor like paint.
"Hello!" Malon greeted as she opened the door, noticing the postman.
"Hello. I have a letter for... uhh... Link?" he asked, waving a letter.
Malon nodded. "I can take that. Thank you very much."
The postman eyed the chaos in the living room curiously. "Whatever is going on in there, it sounds like fun. They playing clue?"
Malon groaned. "Don't you start also... No, I have no clue what is going on."
The postman laughed. "Well, I must go. After all, these letters aren't going to deliver themselves!" He waved and walked off. Malon shut the door with a quiet click just in time to hear her dad call out.
"Yahtzee!"
At the end of the day, no one had any clue what was going on, but they all had fun. Malon smiled seeing all the heroes laughing and joking around.
It must be a nice break from all the stress. Malon smiled warmly at the heroes, young and old. I'm glad that they had fun. They deserve some fun in their life.
