Chapter 1

My heart stops when his blood red eyes meet mine, a moment when time itself seems to stand still. I stare at the man in front of me, transfixed, unable to think. Deciding to obey the first thought in my head without a second thought, human instincts kicking in. Run. I swivel on the balls of my feet as I swiftly dart amongst the shadows of the trees.

My breathing became an irregular pace after running for so long, but I ignore the fatigue trying to take over my body. After deciding to pick up speed, the adrenaline flows through my veins, urging me on. Faster. The night air was glacial against my flushed cheeks. Red, because of the blood, which tinted them so. The air was getting difficult to breathe at this point in time. I quickly glance over my shoulder, and see him behind me. The man's darting shadows and blood lust tainted eyes growing closer and closer to where I am, as he gains on me.

He knew I was slowing down.

I turn away, my heart racing a mile a minute, and my now wet cheeks slowly dripping with tears. I try to ignore the burning in my legs, pleading me to rest them. I felt as though the trees were reaching out to me, appealing for me to just lie down and rest, to be trapped by them forever. Instead of the harsh wind hitting my face, I suddenly feel myself making contact with the rocky, wet soil. My muscles try to urge myself to my feet, but a force is keeping me from doing so. Him. The man garbed in black pulls out his legendary sword, aiming for my stomach.

"Your time has expired, Fallon." He smirks at me, laughing darkly he brings his sword down.

I awake in an instant. A cold sweat covering my whole body as I breathe heavily. I've been having the exact same dream for over two weeks now. Each time it appears, it only gets scarier. Last night was one of the only nights I've actually been able to sleep a wink. Between studying for finals, and procrastinating, life has been super busy.

But, enough of all this negativity, allow me to introduce myself. As you may already know, I'm Fallon, to close friends Fal. I have purple hair that goes down to my chest, and silver eyes with gold flecks. I would say my looks were mediocre, average sized lips, big eyes, and a straight nose. My figure was also nothing out of the ordinary.

Deciding to crawl out of bed, and into my closet, I change into a casual outfit, knowing I had promised my friend Danielle I would meet her at the local coffee shop. A long baggy purple t-shirt, some plain black yoga pants, and a pair of Adidas sneakers.

I sleepily walk into my bathroom, brushing my hair into the pin straight style like usual. I also apply some light makeup, such as mascara, eyeliner, and lip balm. After my makeup, I pick up my toothbrush from its holder, and grab the toothpaste, squeezing the goop on my little tooth cleaner. After brushing, and making my way downstairs to the living room of my house, I start packing up my stuff. I remember to bring my scattered belongings like my id, phone, headphones, wallet, the necessities. I check the time on my phone, realizing I'm already late for our meeting.

I rush out the door, throwing my purse onto my shoulder carelessly. Feeling the cold air hit my face, I wince at the sudden change in temperature. I suddenly see a creepy looking man at the end of the street, standing there with perfect posture. His hair was an unnatural blonde, and his eyes… Were one of the creepiest thing I've seen in my life. They were as an active volcano was spewing lava, destroying everything in its path. Sure, there are such things as coloured contacts, but his looked too real to be fake. One thing's for sure though, he's not from around here.

Deciding that he's just another cosplayer, I just keep my head down and make the least amount of social interaction as possible. As I pass him in the street, I notice his eyes grow wide, as he recognizes who I am. Do we know each other? I pick up my pace, and walk as fast as I can away from him, but I hear fast footsteps behind me, as he follows me across the street. What I wasn't expecting though, was the man to forcefully grip his arms around me. My scream echoes throughout the neighborhood, and I try to squirm away from him. As I go to bite his arm, my vision starts to get blurry.

He must have drugged me.

My eyelids grow heavy, as though I haven't slept for months, and I find myself slowly drifting to sleep, but not before I see a bright light speeding towards us. Everything else after that is completely black.

I finally start to regain my consciousness, and I open my eyes slowly to get used to the sunlight beaming in through the small window to my left. Then I remember what happened.

I was kidnapped.

I frantically search for my purse, and see it on the end table on the left side of me. I go through it to see if anything could be used as a weapon to protect myself from the creepy cosplayer, although unless my phone could be used as a weapon, I'd say I'm out of luck. As I contemplate what I should do, a thought occurs to me.

'It's a bit weird he let me keep my stuff' I shake the thought off as I get off the bed, and towards the door.

As I open it slowly, I peek out to see if the man is out there. Of course he was, and he's accompanied by a… Strange looking man. Well, they're both dressed weird. Damn, I was kidnapped by some weird people, wasn't I? The one that grabbed me had on a skin tight ninja like suit. It was decorated with some white cloth on his forearms, stomach, and face, almost like a face mask. There was a red eye on his chest, with a teardrop coming from it.

But the guy next to him was… Far more attractive than he was. The man had on a forest green tunic, with beige pants, and brown boots that stop at his shin. Underneath his green attire I could see some chainmail, and his forearms were covered with gauntlets. He also had big bright blue eyes, a straight nose, and thick lips. I also noticed some little blue hoop earrings on his abnormally large pointed ears. And… A weird shaped hat to match his forest green tunic.

"I will go check on the girl now." The ninja looking boy states as he rises from his seat, and walks towards me.

Shoot.

I hastily close the door, and decide to hide behind it. As it opens, I cover my mouth to make sure I haven't made a sound, and wait for ninja boy to be in just the right position. Once he is, I lunge toward him, and weigh him own to the ground, he then makes an audible gasp as he hits the ground. The boy tries to turn and grab me, but I swiftly stand and make a run for it. But, before I can, the boy clad in green appears in front of the door. I try to evade him, but he's a lot quicker than me, and grabs my waist tightly.

"Let me go!" I yell loudly as I try to wriggle my body away from him.

"We're not here to hurt you, calm down." The boy coos in my ear as he tries to calm my nerves.

"Why should I trust the people who kidnapped me?" I try to fight against the dirty blonde, but my effort was useless.

The boy behind me sighs as he notices I've stopped fighting against him. His grip loosens, as he nudges me into the room I was in before waking up. But, blocks the doorway so I cannot get out easily.

"We don't want to hurt you Fallon. I know you're probably very scared and confused as to where you are but, there are people worse than us to trust. We're the good guys." I look into his oceanic blue eyes as he says this, and I can tell he's telling the truth.

After some hesitation, I decide to give in.

"Fine, I'll trust you, but you have to explain to me what's going on." This makes the boy smile slightly at me.

"How about some introductions first? My name is Link, and the one on the ground over there." He motions towards the boy I crushed with my body.

"Is Sheik." I nod at this information

"Well, you already know this, but I'm Fallon. Now, tell me why Sheik took me."

"Well, you're probably not going to believe me, but here goes. Sheik was informed to bring you here, to Hyrule kingdom. It's a totally different dimension than you're used to. And you have to accompany me on my quest to save this land from the clutches of evil." I give Link a weird look.

"You're right, I don't believe you. If I'm being pranked by Danielle for being late, please, this is the most stupid thing I've ever been a part of in my life and I would like to stop messing around so we can actually get some studying in today… "

"It does not matter if you believe, because you will have to eventually." Sheik regains his composure in front of me.

Suddenly, we hear a loud sound coming from outside. I look over, out the window, and see a man dressed quite similar to Link, the only difference was the colour of their clothing. His was pitch black, and his eyes, were a blood lust tainted red. His skin was also a different colour, a shade of white I had never seen on a human tainted his flesh.

Just like the guy from my dream.

Maybe this was a dream… I'm still sleeping, aren't I? Yeah, that's gotta be it, because I'm sure Danielle wouldn't go to this length to prank me. When I wake up, everything will probably make a lot more sense.

"Link, get out of here, he cannot know she is here. You must keep her away from him, I will stall him, but you must go now."

"Sheik, I can't just leave you here to fight by yourself, I can hardly handle him at my best."

"Just go! Epona is behind the cottage, I'll meet you in kakaraiko village." Link reluctantly nods his head

The dirty blonde takes my hand gently, and leads me to the back of the cottage, and to a horse with white hair, and short brown fur.

"Do you know how to get on a horse?" I nod my head as I lift my leg up, and straddle the horse.

Link does the same, as he grabs the reigns, and motions Epona to turn around, when she does, her hind legs come up from the ground, which results in me wrapping my arms around Link's waist so I don't fall off. The blue eyed boy makes a 'hyeah' sound, and the horse gallops into a never ending field.

Hey, so this is the first chapter to the revised version of Legends Upon Legends.

First of all, I want to say sorry to the people who are finding this fic once again, and wondering why i suddenly deleted it entirely. I just wasn't satisfied with this fanfiction and wanted to take it down, because I want this fic to be at it's potential. There are going to be a lot of changes to the story, so you won't be reading the same words, it will be different, but the plot will mostly stay the same.

And to the new readers, I want to say thank you for reading the first chapter (and this super long author's note) and I hope you stick around for the upcoming chapters!

Love the lovely,

Yumi
