Hello people of the internet! Ninja here! This is technically my second fan fiction, but I deleted my first one 'cause it was really bad. I hope this one is better. I know there was a similar fan fiction put out there, but I really didn't copy. I've had this sitting for about a year collecting virtual dust. I really hope you will all enjoy my dreams. SPECIAL THANKS TO BlueFrenchHorn97 FOR BEING AN AWESOME FRIEND AND BETA READER!

"Serina and Link, its dinner time! Hurry up!" Ilia called from her house. My brother Link and I were sword fighting by the stream that runs through our home town of Ordon. The wind blew lightly, just enough to rustle the flora in the town.

Ordon was a small farming province with only a few small resident areas, but with a small town came big gossip. Right now Link and I were the talk. Apparently a woman of my age "should be getting married and starting a family." I always thought that was insane. I was only sixteen, for Goddess sake!

Link turned around and looked at Ilia, who was standing in the door way to the mayor's house. I took this chance to tackle him to the ground and put my wooden practice sword against his neck. He gasped but started to give a hearty laugh. I joined in, "Score: Serina one Link zero!" I announced as I jumped off of him.

"I do believe that I am the one who defeats you every other day! My score should be a lot higher." Link started to brag as me and him headed towards Ilia's house.

Ilia's father died not long after my brother got back from his quest. She has been much more cold and distant since then. She never seemed to be happy. It made being around her awkward at times…
Ilia gave Link and I a stern look as we walked into her home. "Serina, it isn't respectable for a young lady to be sword fighting or rolling around on the ground." Great, this lecture again…

I put my practice sword down next to Link's, "Ilia, it isn't fair for me to sit around. I want to be prepared if danger arises again. I want to be able to help Link if he ever needs it."

Both Link and Ilia knew that when Link was chosen by the goddesses to protect Hyrule affected me as much as it affected my brother. I hated seeing my brother come into town after months of being gone, being bruised and beaten up. I hated standing by because it isn't 'proper' for a lady to fight. But it wasn't just the fact I wanted to be needed. I was darn right tired of this little town. Nothing changes… ever. I wanted adventure. I wanted to see all of Hyrule! Maybe I would even go into other countries, like Termina.

"Ilia, she isn't doing any harm to herself by learning a little sword play. Just let it rest, okay?"
Ilia immediately nodded her head. Link always had a way of making Ilia calm down. It was probably because Ilia was practically waiting for Link to confess his undying love for her. He never would, though.
Ilia had a thing for my brother since I could remember and at one point everyone thought they would get together, but during Link's adventures he fell in love with another woman. I am the only person in the light world that knew though. The only other person he told was the Princess of Twilight herself.

We all sat down to have and awkward dinner that consisted of me giving death glares, Ilia failing at flirting with Link, and Link noisily eating his stew and trying and get Ilia off his back by ignoring her. Dinner was almost always like this but because neither Link nor I could cook, Ilia was our only source of food.

"Thanks for the meal Ilia, me and Serina are going to get out of your hair now." Ilia nodded as we picked up our 'swords' and headed back to the tree house Link and I lived in.

"One of us needs to learn how to cook, so we don't have dine with her every day…"
Link laughed, he looked thoughtful for a moment, eventually he spoke, "That wasn't very nice Serina, funny, but mean."

I gave a light chuckle before I placed my hand over my heart and replied, "I only speak the truth!

Link began to look distant as we continued to walk, "Hey Serina," He looked down at the ground, "Maybe you shouldn't train with me anymore…"

My head shot up, "What do you mean? I thought you would understand. I want to be able to help you! Why can't anybody understand that?" I couldn't believe what he said. How could he do this to me?

Link looked at me apologetically. He stopped walking and turned toward me, "Look people around town are whispering about you. All of the women in Ordon are looking down at you for picking up that sword every day. I told you I get it but I just don't want you to get hurt. You're my little sister." He placed his hand on my head.

"I'm not going to get hurt!" I yelled and pushed his hand away. I couldn't take it anymore. I called my horse, Tillion. The black mustang came galloping towards me, "I'll be back before morning." I said to Link without looking at him. I jumped up on Tillion and rode off toward the forest. I could hear my brother yelling at me from the house, but I didn't care. I needed to escape for a while, just to clear my mind. I didn't want to feel useless like I did all those years ago.

"Why does everybody feel the need to tell me what to do?" I monologued, as the wind blew through my short blonde hair. It was only slightly longer than Link's.

I wasn't paying attention where I was going. I was just going. I finally stopped riding when I found myself at the Ordon spring. My brother had told me stories about the light spirit that resided in the spring. I stepped into the spring the cool water washing over my feet. The spring's water was used for healing, and it calmed my nerves to be here.

The spring sparkled in the moonlight, but soon it started to glow. Swirled patterns on the rock became bright. I gaped at the sight I was beholding.

"You are kin to the young hero" I jumped at the disembodied voice. I spun around looking for its source, "Be calm young one. I am one of the four light spirits, Ordona." I stared as a giant 'goat' came from the water. It glowed like the sun does in midday.

I bowed, "I-I am the h-hero's younger sister." My body and voice were shaking with surprise and nervousness. I couldn't help but wonder why the light spirit was speaking with me. Besides being the great hero of Twilight's younger sister, I was no one special. At least that's what I thought.

"You have been called upon by the Goddess to share the power of the triforce of courage with the legendary hero. When Hyrule is swallowed by evil once again it will be your destiny to join with your brother and protect this land." Ordona spoke again before the glow in the water faded again and it was once again dark.

"Wait! What does this mean?!" The only response I received was a glowing triforce shimmering on the back of my hand. I couldn't believe what was happening to me. How could I share the triforce of courage with my brother? Can't there only be one bearer? My mind flooded with questions.

I hopped back onto Tillion and rode back to the tree house that my brother and I shared. I stopped and climbed up the ladder to the door of our home. I rushed in to the house, with wide eyes. I was about to drown my brother in questions, but he interrupted me.

"Serina! Don't do that again! Do you know what could have happened? I don't want to have to save your ass if you get captured! I was about to come after you!"

I began to laugh. It probably made me look a little crazy, but this situation was so crazy I couldn't help but laugh a bit.

I looked up at my brother, "I don't think I should stop training." Link looked puzzled at my statement, until I held up my hand with the triforce still glowing a bright golden shade, "I think we need to start training more."

Link gaped and looked at his own hand. His own triforce now shone "I don't believe this." He turned around, "Start packing! We are going to report to her majesty."

Link began to run around packing while I packed my satchel with clothes and other necessities. He walk to the door and opened it, "I'm going to go tell Ilia. Get to bed; we'll be leaving before dawn." He said before heading out.
