The Final hour was closing in. Link stood facing the evil beast known as Gannon, Gannon has swatted the master sword out of the young hero's hand, Link was running out of options as he dodged the mighty Beast's tail that was thrashing.
Princess Zelda the rightful ruler of the kingdom and the 7th sage that destine to be the leader of all the sages saw the legendary sword by her side. quickly she took grasp of the weapon and threw it back to Link.
Once sword in hand The hero of time one destine to save Hyrule gave the final blow and struck Gannon, thrusting the sword right into to his forehead.
With Gannon down The Sages united and seized the opportunity to seal the evil demon in the Sacred Realm.
Reverting back to his gurudo form Gannondorf cursed the ones who defeated him as he was never seen again.
Peace was returning to the land, their destiny fulfilled Zelda reclaimed the Ocarina of time and with it she returned Link to his child hood.
...40 years have passed...
" It's around her some where?" A young boy said as he and his Twin sister opened a large door. the boy wore a tunic similar to the hero, it was green but sleeveless, he wore a tan shirt under the tunic with brown pants and brown shoes. his had shaggy rusted color hair and blue eyes.
His sister, she had blond hair pulled in to low pigtails and her bangs parted to frame her face. unlike her brother she wore a cream colored shirt with a brown skirt and a white long sleeve shirt under. Unlike her brother she had brown eyes.
" William you know were not allowed in here" his sister reminded him. Inside was a small shed with farming tools and a small pile of hay laid in the corner.
" Relax Robbin, were only going to see if it's real" William told his sister, as he looked around the small shed, he looked to the wall and found what he was looking for.
" Found it!" he called pointing to the wall, on the shed wall was a shield and not just any shield, the shield was made with a metallic surface and had the royal crest carved into it. the Hylian shield that was said to have protected the hero of time.
" I knew it!" William cried out. The children were to focused on the shield that they didn't see the pile of hay moving, from the pile two strong arms reached out and tapped the children on their shoulder.
" Got you!" a voice called making the children shrike in terror. The shrike of terror soon turned into shrieks of laughter, William and Robbin were laughing with a very elder looking man as he fell back into the hay pile.
" Grampa!" Robbin cried out. the children were being tickled by their grandfather, their grandfather was a muscular build man with pale blond hair that grew into a bead, blue eyes, he wore simple farming cloths as he laughed along with his grand children.
" Link are you in here?" a voice called.
" It's Grandma!" William cried out, he remember many times their grandmother would scold them for entering the shed. A Hylian woman with red hair tied back and a few wrinkles under her eyes entered the barn, she wore a long sleeve white shirt with a blue skirt and boots, she stood in front of the door with her arms cross but couldn't be mad at her grand children.
" Alright you two come on out" she told the children " go on wash up and be ready for supper".
Link let his grandchildren go as they ran out of the shed. Once out the Hylian woman turned to Link and gave him a stern stare.
" Malon they're just children" Link spoke. Malon was not convinced, instead she reached out to help Link off of the floor.
" yes I know " she sighed " I don't know where they get this rebellious streak from but I'm sure it wasn't from me".
" I wouldn't worry to much, I was here watching them" Link assured her.
" And where were you when I asked you to repair the Cucco pen?" Malon asked. That made Link go silent, he did skip out on fixing the Cucco pen for he knows if left lose they would go after the children if provoked and William likes to provoke the poor farm birds.
Seeing him acting like a caught child misbehaving made Malon give a soft smile and chuckle at her husband " come on let go back into the house" she told him. She and Link exited the shed and closed the door.
...
After supper Link would tell William and Robbin stories about the Kokiri forest, the Deku tree, and what happen when Gannondorfthe king of the desert took over Hyrule and made Hyrule a world of battle scars and monster roaming the lands.
He would give details on how he and then Princess Zelda worked together to stop Gannondorf and sealed him ine sacred realm.
William asked why wasn't Link treated like a hero if he did all this stuff and Zelda is a witness to it all.
Instead of explaining it would be silence, then Link will state he's tired and have the children go to bed.
Once Malon got the children to bed she walked back to the living room where Link stood watching the fire burn in the fire place.
How could he tell them that he and Zelda were no longer on speaking terms.
...
Outside of the house peached on a tree some one was watching from the window. The figure was covered from head to toe in a large cloak.
"... I found him!..." the figure spoke, pulling back the hood the fire revealed to be a woman with dark skin and fire red hair, her eyes were yellow like the bright sun.
" You will pay for what you and The princess have done!' she vowed.
Imagine OOT where Link was returned to the past and grew up, his heroic deeds wouldn't be told and he now a grandfather that tells stories.
Based off an interesting fan art I saw on facebook the concept of a golden age Link dawning his Hero cloths to give one more adventure.
