THE LEGEND OF ZELDA Unfolding History: Chapter.1 unfolding darkness
In the many years of Hyrule history, many heroes dressed in green have always said to have single-handedly defeated the great darkness that plunges Hyrule into great a darkness every 100 years that pass. It was once said that the very first hero that lived, was watched over by the goddess, the goddess grew such pity and love for the young hero that she had given her life away so that she may always relive her life to forever to stay by the young hero's side, no matter how many lives they live...
It is in this year that a great many years have past and all of Hyrule was well. People were at peace, living every day to the fullest...But floating through a river which leads to the great Zora's domain was a woman collapsed on the ground with her blood flowing through the water as her baby screamed and cried. A woman of white and blue scales arises from the water after taking notice of the color change in the water and looks down at the baby with a gentle gaze. Her hair almost looked as though it was a dolphin's tail and fins that looked of a fish fins in the form of butterfly wings that draped down her arms. The women was known to the Hylian's as a Zora.
The Zora women looked at the crying baby with such pity, being that she is a mother herself. It doesn't take long to see the Hylian women laying dead, assuming she died protecting her child. The beautiful Zora woman gently scooped up the crying baby and gently rocks it in her soft scaly wet arms and sang her mother's song that could only be the beautiful song known as Serenade of water.
The babies cries are soon quieted down and closing its eyes, falling asleep. The Zora mother then takes the blue silk sash that was wrapped around her waist and wraps the Hylian baby in it, as she then takes it into the water with her and swims faster than a dolphin into Zora's domain.
A huge deep pond of water that leads to the ocean, was protected by old ruins of old history. At the very bottom of this pond was a castle made of many types of huge seashells that glittered when the sun hit it just right. pearls lay at the floor to this castle of shells. But in this castle of shells where the people of the Zora's and their queen. All the Zora's were happy, laughing and the children playing and swimming. Lanternfish lighting up the castle, party streamers hung from the wall made from seaweed and a little Zora finishing off platting the party food of fish and fruit...while trying not to eat it, because today is the 17th birthday of thZorara queen 's eldest son's birthday today!
Queen Zora Dolphina, sitting on a small throne-like chair made of seashell, like most of everything else. The large dining table made of pearl with shell seats for all the Zora's to be seated.
"Everyone, gather round!" Dolphina said with her voice raised slightly with a gentle clap of her hands. Just as the queen commanded, all the Zora's swam through the waters and to the dinner table, joining their beloved queen. All the Zora's sat together, making a clear difference from the queen's scale pattern from all the other's was much more unique being that she was of noble Zora blood.
"Fin, please go tell your older brother that he can come out from his room now" the kind soothing voice escaped Dolphina's lips as she spoke to the young child.
"Yes, mama!" The little Zora child leaps into the water and goes into the upstairs waterfall where his big brother was held up in.
A golden-haired young man who was dressed in a white-scaled royal Zora tunic with a blue silk sash around his waist that was a gift from his mother when he was a child with his hair in a small ponytail. His sharp kind blue eyes looking at the photo in his hand of him with his mother and father who is no longer here and his younger brother and older sister, who passed away with their father from an illness that passed through their water's a few years ago.
The door made from fish bones and driftwood opens and a little Zora boy with a small shell crown that isn't nearly as cool as his mams, but still very pretty, walks in.
"Link! you can come on out now, but honestly, if you didn't want mother to lock the door, then you shouldn't peak at your present's before the party!" He gave Link a look as though an older sibling would playfully give their little siblings when they get in trouble.
"Yeah, well I saw you picking at the party food" He argued back with a slightly smug grin, crossing his arms.
"Wha!? M-me? taste the party food before the party!? Never...!" The boy protested. The blond simply eyes rolled his eyes before giving the boy a look of shame.
"OKAY, OKAY! Just stop giving me that look!... I promise not to eat any more party food next time, if you promise not to peak at your presents next time, okay? Now let's go before mama gets worried" Both agree and both head out the door but not before the older boy could pat the top of the child's head.
While all the Zora's of the great domain were happily having a party for the queen's son, a great darkness was brewing...
As Princess Zelda was singing with gentle strums of her harp. Her long gold hair swaying in the back, her blue eyes closed, her bangs gently pulled from each side into the back and was held by a large gold-copper hair clip with a big bright blue gem on it, her sideburns have a metal ball of silver near the tips letting the rest of it come out, making her sideburns look elegant.
Her pink cotton dress with a crown like shaped gold-copper on the chest line of the dress with a blue gem in front with thin gold-copper chains attaching to each side end of the chest line and at the bottom tips of the dress is a pattern of the Triforce. a thin piece of white silk draping down from under the gold-copper was a few inches longer than the pink dress and it had some beautiful design work with a big gold print of the triforce on it. On the corners of the white silk were small prints of the symbol of Wisdom. Her forehead crowned with a gold-copper tiara-like-headband on her forehead that was also holding a blue gem in the middle of it and her simple leather brown boots with black pearl heels and black tights up her legs.
Just when everything seemed peaceful, the young princesses eyes open wide in horror from the sudden and frightful vision of a great darkness plaguing all of Hyrule and burning down everything in its path.
"Oh no...has he already revived himself?... I must protect my people!" While princess Zelda was the only one who could see the darkness ready to unfold, the rest of the world was at ease, smiling and laughing, but as for Zora's domain...A party was proceeding for Link, the boy taken in by the queen.
"...! " Link's small hooped earrings dangle and sway ever so slightly as Link turns his head in slight panic from the thought of something evil and bloodthirsty was looming over him from behind...but nothing was there.
"Link, are you okay? cause if you're not, i'm going to eat all your birthday cake and open all your present's! hehehe" The boy grins.
"..." Link stares at the air for a moment before shaking his head a bit and catching up to his younger brother. "No, it's nothing"
"Good, glad to hear you're alright, now let's hurry up to mama!"
The two dive into the water and swim to the party. But as soon as they make it, every Zora shouts, "SURPRISE! HAPPY BIRTHDAY LINK!" With big smiles on their face's and queen Dolphina hugs Link with her wet scaly arms gently with a smile on her face as her lips shine from the gloss on them.
"Happy birthday my son" She smiles at the boy, looking down at him with her beautiful amethyst eyes. Link, of course, returns the hug with a smile of his own with cheeks slightly flushed from everyone's gaze eyeing him.
"Hehehe, Link looks embarraZora!" The zora children giggle.
"Now, now. Be nice to your big brother, it's his birthday" The queen smiled.
"Yes mama..." The Zora children felt bad for there actions, and apologize to the older boy with their heads lowered.
As everyone enjoys the party, Link sit's by his mother as she is telling him of the great legend of the green cloaked heroes while the Zora children dance and play, the adults party and talk, everyone so happy and unaware of the darkness that was looming all over Hyrule from the depths of the earth. Clouds of shadow were now swallowing the skies of Hyrule.
"I must do something...my people are in danger.." Zelda says before turning away from her loyal guard Impa, who has protected her since birth. She then in a short amount of time, create's a large shield of her powers to saround castle Hyrule, and stands on her balcony to peer over her people. She calls her people to not worry, and tells her people to allow others in need of shelter from the darkness that of whitch is clouding over as she speaks to take refuge in her kingdom…
In the zora domain, the queen is told of the coming darkness by one of the Hylian knights and tells he her people to head for Hyrule castle, to escape as quickly as they can, not to worry about her.
"We don't have much time...You all must hurry!" Queen Dolphina swallows her fear and strongly commands everyone to have hope and pray to the goddess that they will be okay as long as they have faith. "Link! you must leave now!" The queen erge's
"But what about you!? I won/'t leave you behind!" Link strongly refuses to leave her, wishing to never lose another family member again.
"Please Link...take Fin and go to castle hyrule...please and I promise that we will see each other again..." She smiles as tears start to well up in her eyes a bit and give's Link a final hug before pushing him down the waterfall right before the darkness attacks the room...With all the magical power in her body, Dolphina does her best to fend off the coming darkness.
"Haaaaaa!" screaming from the fall...and for his mother...Link splash into the water and pulls his head out as he see's the darkness eating away at everything. He quickly get's up and out to search for Fin, just as his mother asked him to before leaving him.
"Fin...!" Not long, the Zora boy was spotted but only to find him crying as a nearing hungry wolfos pack approached him. As Link see's them, he runs towards them and picks up the wooden sword from his birthday that was on the floor and leaps into the air and slashes down onto the white wolfos from behind that was in front of Fin.
"Haaaa!" He cried out when he attacked, landing in front of the Zora child.
"Link!" Fin was overcome with joy from the sight of his older brother, relieved his brother was okay.
The two white wolfos now turn their attention to the young golden-haired boy in front of them, who was now burning with hate in his blue eyes, ready to protect Fin from the evil monsters that were attacking his people and family.
The big white furred wolfos howls and glares with its sharp red eyes and stands on its hind legs before swinging its quick big sharp claws. With a quick roll off to the side, Link slashes the wooden sword on the white wolfos's waist and stand back on his feet.
"Hiaaaaaaaa!" He cries before he leaps again and swings his sword down on the last white wolfos's head.
"L-Link, they're getting up!" Fin pointed with worried shakes.
Seeing this, Link quickly take's Fin's arm and runs to the water to make their escape. But the white wolfos crouch down on all fours and run towards the two with quick speed and heavy panting. From the sound of just how loud the panting was, the two wolfos must only be inches away. With a quick thinking, Link tosses the Zora boy into the water and ducks under the wolfos's attack before diving into the water. When they land in the water, they found many skullfish awaiting them. But they quickly out swim them out of the Zora's domain and crawl onto the near grass as they both pant heavily from escaping the wolfos and skullfish.
"Fin, are you okay?" Link asks, full of worry for the child. This was honestly a habit of Link's, always looking out for others more than himself, even when he was younger, he always put others before himself, just as his sister always did for him
"Yeah...I'm okay, I'm just glad it was big bro that mama told to come save me" he smiles "You were amazing...sniff...so now what?"
"Sigh..." Link swallows any bit of fear for his family and focuses on getting his little brother Fin to safety. He points to the big castle of hyrule that was now protected by Zelda's shield before looking back at Fin.
"Over there, Hyrule castle"
"O-okay!"
As Zelda watches all of Hyrule become Ganondorf's land of darkness, she spot's a golden-haired young man about her age, if not younger, running with a very young Zora, heading towards her castle. Assuming the boy must be a townsperson and helped out the Zora's from their domain.
"Oh no!" She not only notices that the young boy is hylian from his ears. But its what she see's behind them that scares her. Ganondorf himself, riding on his horse of shadows that is headed towards the two with his blade ready.
"I have to save them!"
"Princess wait!"Ignoring Impa's words, Zelda leaps out her window and lands on the back of her white horse and lashes the rains, quickly heading towards Link and Fin, praying she'll make it to them before Ganon.
"L-Link, w-who is that!?" Fin points behind them. Eyes wide, frightened from the dark grin that the larger man wore.
"...! " Link's eyes widen to the sight when he looks behind them and could only guess.
"Hahahaha!" Ganondorf laughed as he draws near. His blade ready to attack Fin and Link and soon, Ganon's sword reaches them and at the same time, a huge crash of thunder and lightning roars in the sky from the event that had just occurred.
"Link!"
Link who had just pushed Fin out of the way was now laying on the grass that was sheeted in his own crimson blood after receiving an attack from Ganondorf to protect the Zora child. The goddess of the skies start to weep as droplets of rain start to fall from the skies that soon becomes harsh storm...
"Link...!" Fin cried. Unsure of what to do, he simply just sobbed of the body of the young blond, clinging to him for dear life, praying he would be okay.
"Ha! and hear i thought he was the hero" Ganon mocks.
Ganon sat on his horse made of shadows, his dark cape blew in the rainy winds that dripped down on his black armor trimmed in gold, his burning red hair resembled fire as it was pulled back into a ponytail. His deep gold eyes look down at Fin like trash that needs be taken care of. He raises his sword, ready to swing it once more at little Fin. But before his sword could even move, a golden light shoot's like an arrow, piercing Ganon's chest plate. Zelda raiding in with her white horse and in hand, her golden harpbow as she finally reaches the two boys to aid them.
"Urgh!... I see...princess Zelda" He grunted with a cold glare towards the girl.
"Ganon...Little boy, are you okay? oh, no...your friend is hurt..." Zelda worried for Link and Fin. But quickly looked back at Ganon, keeping an eye on his every move.
"P-Please help him!" Fin pleaded with tears running down his cheeks.
"Hurry! Get him and yourself on my horse!" Zelda erged sharply, keeping her eyes on the dark lord before her.
"O-okay!" Fin hurried
"Don't waist your time with him princess. He's not worth much after the beating he got from me" Ganon grinned like the evil king he was, sending chills down Zelda's spine, and all who oppose him.
"Just wait...the hero will come for you Ganon!" She exclaimed, glaring back at the king.
"Tch!" He glares with hate for the hero, remembering all the times Link had killed him...over and over and over and over And OVER AND OVER!
"Then I will be the one to kill him this time!" He strongly declared, returning his grin.
"You could never kill the hero!...Wait...you were killed, who brought you back into this world this time!? I thought you would be gone for another 50 years!" Zelda questioned, unable to understand his resurrection, as the last hero killed him, leaving the kings body to only return after 100 years...but somehow his time was cut by half before returning.
"See this sword?... Well, after he was taken down with me, after all the years of coming back, I used all the power I had gathered to revived my sword, Ghirahim the demon king, to bring me back much sooner! HAhahaha!" His evil laughter roars with the thunder as the lighting crashes in the storm of darkness behind him. Ganondorf rides into the darkness as he will come for Zelda latter, letting her flee with Fin and the badly hurt Link.
Zelda rushes her horse back to Hyrule castle to regroup with Impa...But...as soon as Zelda enter's the shield she made, she feels the presence of the triforce of courage. She is stunned as she look's at the hurt young man and see's the slight glow of the triforce on his left hand appear...
