We ventured to Zora's Domain as everything grew cold. I shivered; my tank-top and shorts were doing nothing keep me warm in the bone-chilling cold. Dan must have seen this because I felt a somewhat familiar leather jacket being draped over my shoulders. I decided not to question how Dan had his leather jacket from the Attitude City music video with him, but rather blushed as I thanked him for lending it to me. Dan shrugged it off by saying that it was nothing and the tunic and tights he was wearing was keeping him warm enough.

We continued on in a comfortable silence. When the wind picked up, I put my arms through the sleeves of the jacket. My arms were now rendered useless since the jacket sleeves were way too long and dangled past my hands like Number Three from Codename Kids Next Door. We trekked our way to the waterfall. Dan played Zelda's Lullaby and I hummed along. The waterfall opened up. We opened up to see everything covered in ice. Our worry for Barry grew. Dan began to freak out.

"Something's happened to everyone. We don't get to see the others, like, at all. Barry's missing,  we have no clue what happened to Kevin or Holly or Mark, and nothing is simple. How are we supposed to do this?" he said. I sighed and took his hand. I had been prepared for this freak out for a while.

"Look at me. We're going to find Barry, we're going to figure out where Holly and Kevin, and Mark are, and then we'll get home and things will be normal and we can make up for not seeing them in a while. Okay?" I replied. Dann nodded.

"Alright. What do we do?" Dan asked.

"Ice physics mini-dungeon." I sighed.

"F***" Dan stated.

We dealt with the Ice Cavern. It was always my least favorite part of the game but I wasn't about to have Dan blow a ton of money to buy something that was in the cavern for free. We finished but ran into Ninja Brian.

"Hey guys. Another song I guess. Uh, 'Time passes, people move.... Like a rivers flow, it never ends... A childish mind will turn to noble ambition... Young love will become deep affection... The clear water's surface reflects growth... Now listen to the Serenade of Water to reflect upon yourself...'" Brian greeted before reading. Then he taught the song and disappeared.

"Ninjas" I sighed.

We freed King Zora who granted Dan a blue tunic so he could breath underwater. Then he gave me a wetsuit.

"Let's warp to the temple." I told Dan he nodded.

We warped and ended up at Lake Hylia. There we saw Barry.

"Hey guys." Barry greeted

"Barry!" Dan called excitedly before going and man hugging his friend and roommate.

"So, what brings you here?" Barry asked.

"Water Temple." Dan replied.

"That's easy. Come on. I got a new guide." Barry shrugged.

Barry led us through the temple with relative ease and before we knew it we were back at the Temple of Sages.

"I'm so not reading any of this text. Here's the medallian. Just two left and the castle huh? Make us proud. And Dan, Shrodinger's Cat." Barry said, bringing up a past conversation. Dan blushed.

"Alright alright." Dan said.

We were teleported back the the Temple of Time.

"Where now?" Dan asked.

"The desert" I replied.

"Let's do it!" Dan exclaimed.

So close yet so far to getting home.
