Wassup…This is FujiwaraHarimoto. I'm going to be doing a crossover as the title implies of Mahou Sensei Negima and The Legend of Zelda. I'm also drawing from Final Fantasy IV (or II for those who know it as that) and I believe Ogre Battle 64 (does anyone know where the the characters Magnus and Destin come from?) but only as references. This is only a preview as I'm new to this whole writing thing and am still trying to figure out how to go about it. Also I'd like if you guys could give a few tips and pointers please send them my way much appreciated!
P.S. I feel like I dove into this a little too quickly and am thinking about totally redoing it. I've had this idea in my head for a long time but getting thought to paper is harder than I figured it to be. I need your opinions before I act though so please review or even send me a message. I sort of want to go ahead with my plan but if you guys think its okay as is I'll leave it alone.

"No…I'm too late," a man says as he looks horrified at the devastation before him. A once thriving castle reduced to such that you'd never recognize it, littered with the bodies of soldiers who gave their lives in vain to protect it.
"It's not your fault Link," says the man next to him equally appalled at what he's seeing, " we all did our best at getting here as soon as we could…It's not like you sent these demons to attack."
"I know that Cecil," Link shoots back with rage, " but they only attacked because they knew I was in exile!"
"You can't be sure of that," a third states finally catching up to the two, "for all you know they could have been planning to attack long before that but not being able to."
"That would certainly be optimistic Destin," replies the last man to join the group, "I guess it is true because if your presence was the only thing stopping them they'd have attacked two years ago when you got banishe-"
" Shut up Magnus," Link interrupts, " I'm going to look for survivors!"
"Link you know as well as the rest of us, demons don't leave anyone behind!"
"I don't care damnit," Link retorts as he begins running for the castle, "I'm going anyway!"
"We'd better follow him before he gets himself killed." Cecil says with a sigh, the others agreeing as they begin to run after him, "wait up you damn fool we're coming to!"
Much to Link's dismay the scene on the inside was worse than the outside. The everywhere you looked soldiers lied dead or dying, remains of what you'd assume used to be a soldier scattered everywhere, and not a single survivor. The castle itself no better torn apart to such it seemed moving one stone or more out of place would bring the whole thing down. Rooms and corridors lay in ruin some collapsed others looked ready to and holes in walls that shouldn't be there made even someone who knew the place like Link get lost.
"Y-you , you idiot!" yells Destin fairly out of breath for having to chase down his comrade, "You rush in here without thinking and now your lost?!"
"I-I'm not lost," Link stammers trying to tell his left from his right in this maze of destruction, then turning to Destin, "I just need to get my bearings its been two years you know!"
"Look out!" Cecil yells as a wolf demon jumps of a ledge and lunges toward Link fangs and claws bared. Link grips his sword and spins around with blinding speed slashing the demon into pieces before it knew what hit it.
"A befitting end wouldn't you say," Link murmurs coldly, "to die by a technique passed down by the very people he slaughtered."
"Your Whirlwind Slash is definitely not to be toyed with," Magnus says observantly, "or the sword used to execute it either."
"Well enough standing around," Destin chimes in, "Let's go look for these survivors your so desperately searching for."
"Thank you, my friend."
"Ahhh, shut up and lets get going loser."
It takes a while but Link finally figures out where he is, a few turns and a few slashed demons later…The four approach a large and ornate door strangely mostly undamaged by the fighting. Seeing the minimal destruction at the entrance to the throne room gave Link hope.
"If memory serves me right I believe the throne room is through this door," Link says unable to hide the optimism in his voice.
"Don't get to hopeful Link," Magnus warns noticing the change in his comrades voice, "We still have to walk in assuming the worst."
Oh, put a sock in it you," Link retorts this time not trying to hide the excitement in his voice, "Must always be such a pessi-" Link stops dead as he opens the door all the color draining from his face.
"What's wrong Link, what happ-," Cecil asks stopping dead as he looks through the doorway.
"My god that's sick," Magnus chokes out as he looks too.
"Even for a demon th-that's just low," Destin shudders at the carnage. Soldiers lying dead everywhere and the King beheaded on his throne with his head thrust on a spear next to him, but the worst was next to him still alive the princess sat gasping for air with three swords stabbed into her one in he shoulder and two in her stomach.
"Zeldaaaa!" Link yells in a mix or sorrow and rage. The princess opens her eyes and looks up.
"Link, is that you?" She asks weakly rasping between as her eyes brightened up.
"Zelda!" Links cried out again as he ran to her side, "Oh my god how could they do this to you?!"
"LINK YOU IDIOT IT'S A TRAP!" She screamed with all her strength but weakening as she continued, "Please leave while you still can!"
"NO! I'm not leaving without you," Link replied, tears starting to flow from his eyes, "not again."
"Thank you, Link" Zelda sighed as she pulled him in for a kiss, "but I'm dying, the only request I have is that you pull out these swords, I'd rather not die with the swords of my people still stuck in me."
"I'm so sorry, Zelda!" Link sobbed as with sword he pulled out caused her to cry out in pain and blood began to pour from them, "It's all my fault."
"Link, its not your fault," Zelda said as the pain started to fade away mysteriously as he took her into his arms, "you did all you could all of us did, so please don't let this dominate your life." Her voice beginning to fade. "If you did…then how…could…I rest in…peac-…." She trailed off as the light left her eyes and she went limp.
"Zelda," he whimpered softly as he closed her eyes and laid her down, "don't worry I will avenge you and I will live on so don't you worry."
The four remained quite for a moment until Magnus sensed the enemy approaching.
"We're surrounded," he whispered in shock, "I can't believe I let those bastards get around us like that and not notice." As He looked around to se dozens of various demons crawled from behind their hiding places.
"Well I quests there's nothing left to do but fight," Cecil stated solemnly.
"And fight we shall," Destin added.
"No," Link said after his silence, "You guys stay here, I'm going to kill them all!"
"Link-"
"Don't Cecil," Magnus stopped him, "before you speak look at his face." Cecil did, indeed it wasn't a face or rage or of sorrow, but a dead serious one of the likes he's never seen on the normally carefree warrior. It looked like the face of someone ready to take care of business.
"I think we can sit this one out," He continued, "I believe Link can handle this."
"Thank you, Magnus."
"Just go get that revenge of yours, Link," said Destin confidently, "so you can go ahead and start living."
"Thank you, Des-"
"AWWWWW, HOW SWEET," interrupted a deep booming voice, "OUT TO AVENGE YOUR WOMAN? WE LEFT HER ALIVE TO LURE OUT ANY REMAINING WARRIORS BUT TO THINK THAT WE'D HOOK HER LOVER, HA! IT WORKED OUT BETTER THAN WE IMAGINED!"
"So," Link replied without a hint of the hatred boiling inside him, "am I to assume you're the leader?"
"INDEED I AM THE LEADER, MY NAME IS GRAF WILHELM JOSEF VON HERRMANN." he replied.
"Good," Link stated some of his hatred showing, "THAT MEANS YOU GO FIRST!"
"BY ALL MEANS YOUNG LAD," Herrmann replied almost laughing, "LET'S SEE WHAT YOU GOT!"
"DIIIIEEEE!" Link screamed as he lunged for his opponent.
"sir….Sir….SIR!"
"HUH?!" Link cried out as he woke up to the frightened but no less concerned stewardess. How couldn't she be as this young looking blond man with his hair in a long pony-tail tossed and turned mumbling 'die' in his sleep. "Wh-what is it?"
"The captain has turned on the 'fasten seatbelts light'," she replied. Suddenly realizing where he was he looked around to see all the other passengers and a few stewardesses looking at him funny. " We are about to arrive at Kantou International Airport."
"Ohh uh I see," he said turning a slightly red in embarrassment as he buckled his seatbelt, "sorry about that."
"You sounded like you were having a nasty nightmare," she stated a hint of concern returning to her voice.
"It was nothing, just reliving a bad memory."
"Oh I see," she said as everyone returned to business as usual. A little later the plane touched down and Link stepped off. He slept almost the whole way to Japan from his home in Berlin, Germany, but it was anything but restful. He rubbed the crud out of his eyes as he made his way to pick up his luggage.
Damn that dream, he thought angrily, it's been years since I had it.
Oh well. This was no time to fret over the past he had someone to meet and old acquaintances to touch base with. He was now making his way to the passenger pick-up as he began to wander what the future has in store.
Let's see, he thought to himself, I believe Dean Konoe said to look for a young lad about ten with his hair in a short pony-tail. Negi Springfield, I believe. And a student or two may be with him. Remembering the phone conversation he had with the wily old man.
"Ahhh, Konoe-san its been awhile," said Link cheerfully.
"Indeed," Konoe replied.
"Good to hear your still kicking ya old geezer."
"Oho your one to talk you old fart you!"
"Please I'm barely a day over 725," Link retorted laughing out loud as the man next to him looked at him weird, "I'm still overflowing with youth!"
"Well I didn't call to exchange blows about age," replied Konoe getting to business, "I have a request for you."
" I see not a surprise, you aren't the one to call without having something in mind," Link concluded still chuckling at he look that man gave him, "so what do you need?"
"I'd like you to come to my school and become a teacher's assistant."
"A teacher's assistant? Konoe have you gone senile I'm no teacher."
"Ah yes I have a young lad who just became a permanent teacher here."
"And what's that got to do with me?
"Does the name Nagi Springfield ring a bell?"
"Maybe," Link replied irately, being on a painfully short list of people who've kicked his ass in the past few centuries that name certainly sticks out as the most recent, "What about him I heard he died."
"The new teacher is his son."
"What?!"
"I believe I remember a promise being made that if something should happen to him you'd take care of his son when he graduated magic school. This is just an excuse for you to follow up on it."
"I guess," link replied embarrassed that he'd forgotten the promise he'd made, "When do I start?"
"As soon as your 10:00 flight reaches Mahora," responded cheerfully, "I will make sure the young lad meets you there."
"You evil bastard," Link cried in dismay, "You knew I'd have no choice, you planned this all!"
"Ohoho, for someone as old and wise as you walked right into it."
"Then I guess my only question is what does the kid look like?"

Well This is it I hope you liked it…. Or at least I hope the bathroom wasn't to far away if it made you sick.And before you thrash me for making the leader of the demon army Herrmann I was trying to 'link' the character to Negi somehow. Oh and I like to think of Link as an oc but sadly I can't, This story was years in the making and I had been modeling Link's personality the whole time. Well please R&R criticize, compliment, but most importantly tips and pointers welcome.
