Legend of Zelda:Goddess of Time Chronicles

Chapter 1:The Imprisoned Chosen Hero

Alone in a cold cell,chained to the wall laid a seventeen year old Hylian named Link. He was currently unconsious to his own thoughts as he thought back to what happened the past few months.

'Alot has happen these past few months. My village where I grew up at was attack recently from a Bokoblin Raid,there was many casualities among them were my parents who taught me everything I knew,from the way of the knight and some elemental spells that I was proficient in. Next I was imprisoned a few months later because said raid used my family's weapons against the village and as sole survior of the family I was cast away into prison for the deaths of the innocents. This couldn't get any bloody worse could it? Well you would be wrong since I know war is approaching. I just hope someone comes to their Din-forsaken senses before something worse happens to us all'

Hylia was watching from above on all that was happening needless to say she was greatly disappointed in all but one lone Hylian.

"Out of all the years I had been watching over The Surface, this one had to be the worst. It had started out peaceful as usual, but I'd been having a feeling of dread over the past few months. I had seen more and more enemies appearing and attacking innocent villagers, yet no one was doing anything about it. The only person I had seen try and do something, was now imprisoned. I felt like screaming and going down to knock some sense into them, but I knew that I could not do such a thing. At least,..not yet, but soon. For a more terrible threat was coming..Stronger than any of the Bokoblins, and other enemies that had recently attacked. I knew that if they didn't come to their senses soon, then all will be lost.." Hylia thought to herself as she bit her bottom lip slightly. She had alot of conflicting emotions running through her head as she continued to watch them.

The townspeople grew more worried with each passing week. More children were disappearing. The mayor was trying to keep the crowds under control. However he couldn't stop what would happen soon. He feared maybe he was wrong about the young boy. Course in truth he feared him,the people all liked him since he always taught the children and newcomer knights. The clouds overhead became stormy and dark and it was rather omnious to everyone. Link himself looked to the clouds and whispered a silent prayer to the goddess above.

"Hylia,please protect us from what is coming."

Link thought to himself as he tried once again to get out of his shackles with no luck. They only fed him the bare minuim to keep him alive and because of that he wasn't even at his eighty percent anymore which he berated himself for it. He was always strong and always trained in what he was taught by his parents. He hoped to me released from his Naryu-awful prison as a single tear ran down his face from the memory of his parents and the last thing they said to him.

"Stay strong Link,you have greatness in you and the strongest heart. No one can defeat you if you have something worth fighting for."

Hylia watched everyone panic as yet another raid began to take place. She was still furious that they still didn't believe the news about the upcoming war. Her rage then momentarily sub-sided when she heard Link's prayer. She sighed and went to talk to Impa to ask her a favor.

"Impa? Are you there? I need to ask you to do something for me."Almost immediately, a tall, tan, slender Sheikah woman appeared in front of Hylia and knelt down.

"Your Grace, ask and it shall be done for you."Hylia smiled.

"I need you to free the one they call, "Link". He is being imprisoned in the jail for being falsely accused of being involved in a raid, and for blasphemy. We will need his help since he is the only one who seems to be able to sense that a war is coming." Impa nodded.

"Of course, Your Grace." The Sheikah bowed before disappearing, the same way she had appeared earlier. Hylia sighed and smiled a bit, confident that Impa would be able to free him.

Hylia thought to herself for a moment and had a moment of inspiration. She quickly wrote a note and attached it to a white shield with a red loftwing insignia, holy blue backing and a golden triforce insignia above the loftwing as she blessed it with Holy magic to make it indestructible to anything including the strongest of demonic or holy weapons. She decided to call it the Hylian Shield. She called for Impa once more before she was ready to head out.

"Yes your Grace? Is there something else you need?" Impa inquired to her Goddess.

"Yes give this shield to Link when you free. It is a gift from me personally for having such a strong spirit and courage in these dire times that are approaching. I will be making an appearance soon. So I need him prepared." Hylia explained as she handed him the large shield and Impa raised a crooked blonde brow before nodding and using a simple spell to shrink it down to a pocket size as she placed it inside of her black and gold cloak before heading out with a bow to Hylia.

Impa began her long stride to Link's village,she too was silently furious at the villager's idiotic ways. She had watched Link a few times in action and thought that he was a supurb knight who surprisingly had a knick for spells as well. She was impressed by his use of Din's Fire,Farore's Wind and Naryu's Love. He and his parents were the reason that their village still stood to this day. The only reason why they managed to get to the boy's parents is because of the constant raid after raid which was very draining even with potions of Heart and Stamina at their disposal.

She quickly used her ninja skills she had developed over the years in her training to avoid most of the attacking Bokoblins and Moblins that were beginning the raid of the town. Whenever one would get close enough to attack her,she would easily use what senbon and kunais that she had on her to pierce their jugular,leaving them incapable to breath and thus sufficating themselves to death.

Impa found her destination as she blew up the door to the cell that Link was in. She growled internally at the state that he was in. He was still in prayer when he opened his eyes and saw the Sheikah in front of him and growled as his eye pupil's slit slightly in anger and betrayal.

"So the town has decided to silence me once and for all even when it is under attack? Fools,everyone single one of them except the children... They are innocent to the maddness that surrounds us." Link mused to the newcomer before she freed him of his shackles and helped Link down before giving him a Stamina and a Heart Potion to get him back to 100% though he was still a little stiff.

"Who are you? And why are you freeing me?" Link questioned the taller female.

"I am Impa of the Sheikah Tribe. Hylia,the Time Goddess has heard your prayers and decided to help you. She is just as mad as you for the events that have transpired here. She presents you with a gift as a way for apologizing and hoping you will continue to fight the enemy that is coming soon. Much more deadly than these Bokoblins or Moblins." Impa explained before handing Link the Hylian Shield with a note attached to it.

'Dear Link of the Surface,

Greetings my name is Hylia,Guardian of the Triforce and the Goddess of Time. I present you with this shield that has been blessed and made by myself. It is indestructible and will not break no matter the circumstances. I hope you find this useful and I hope to meet you one day and fight by your side. I'm sorry for the pain you have endured and hope you can find it in yourself to forgive me for not being able to stop it.'

Link smirked slightly as he put the shield and adjusted it to his left arm. It just felt... right in his possession like it was made just for him. He nodded at Impa as she left and Link made his way to his old home to grab his old gear,it wasn't much but it was strong. A large quiver with an Iron Bow,a few bombs in a medium bomb bag made by the Mogmas and a Whip which he used to steal equipment from enemies to make his new gear such as his Bow and Quiver.

He put on his trusty chainmail which went under his black tunic. He wore tan pants and brown boots with stitched in straps to give him better traction. He put his trusty golden shoulderguards on then his shealth which held his family sword and attached his newly acquired Shield on his shealth on his back before putting on his red cape to hide his shield and blade though it had easy assess when he needed it.

Link also equiped his custom made guantlets with fingerless brown gloves so that he has better grip for his equipment and they absorb most of the backlash when defending with his blade and shield. Finaly he put on his old black cap which covers the backside of his platinum-blonde hair.

He left the town afterwards. All of the enemies there were killed, Impa made sure of that when she released Link from his imprisonment. He hoped that he would be able to return one day as a hero and not a criminal like they thought.

Hylia paced a bit where she was at until Impa appeared in front of her and bowed.

"Your Grace, Link has been successfully released and given the Hylian Shield, just as you asked."Hylia nodded and smiled.

"Thank you, Impa. You may go now."Impa bowed again.

"Yes, Your Grace."She then disappeared, leaving Hylia alone to gather her thoughts. She slowly walked over to the Master Sword and ran her fingers across the hilt.

"Hmm..I have to give this to Link, so he will be able to fight Demise…"She then carefully picked up the Master Sword and placed in its sheath.

"I must meet with him as soon as possible"She fidgeted with the Master Sword a bit.

"The only question is how and when.." Hylia mused to herself as she placed the shealth on her back against her gown that she always wore as the wind blew slightly against her having her golden mane flow behind her as she thought of Link.

He was rather the gentleman even for such a young age. She hoped that he would be able to defeat Demise so that the surface could be at peace once again like it had been before the incidents with Bokoblins occured in several towns. She looked below to her temple at the statues the people made to honor her and smiled slightly at that.

"At least they have faith in me. Its a shame they don't have the same for Link,he fights like no other that I have seen." Hylia mused to herself as she decided to speak with her best friends Naryu,Din and Farore about the circumstances and so they could plan accordingly.

Link laid down beside a tree trunk as he covered himself with his black cape giving him a slight disguise for the nighttime. He was still exhausted even with help from Impa's potions he had received. He took off his shealth and shield and studied the shield intently running his gloved hand over it feeling the detail on it. He could tell that it was made with love,kindness,protective emotions. He felt it course through his veins encouraging him to try and make a difference and give the world a fighting chance against evil.

He was never one for religion. Well at least not passionately like others who pretty rely on the Goddesses everyday. He knows about what the legends say about them and the Sacred Triforce. He was still wondering what Hylia meant by her apology and how she would meet him soon. Goddesses never came down he knew that for a fact. Mortals such as he would captivate in their beauty and do anything to be their equals. Thats the way mankind was they craved power always which is how Demise was created pretty much.

Their as a legend passed down from his family to each generation that Demise was in love with Hylia. However Hylia couldn't return his love for her because we was mortal and was greed and filled with lust for her. Even if she was allowed to mate and wed with a Hylian it would have to be someone who had a strong heart and spirit along with a kind soul and equality of strength,spirit and mind. Though that wouldn't happen for eons for her though she was lonely and sad to be alone even with her fellow Goddess by her side but she had accepted this near the beginning of time itself.

Hylia hated Demise,he had caused nothing but pain for her people and the other creatures that lived on the surface world. And now he claimed that he would still her precious item, the legendary Triforce. He would never be able to control it no one could. One would need an unbreakable spirit in order to weild it and though hate is strong it is not as strong as true willpower such as Courage or Wisdom.

As Link thought back on the legends he slowly dozed off into a dreamless sleep hoping that one day he would be able to settle down with someone who would love him no matter what flaws he has or what his family secrets that were passed down were. There was barely any of his family left since they were all very skilled in the art of combat almost on par with the Sheikah if it was for their Magically Runes.

Hylia made her way to the thrones of the Golden Goddesses and curtsied to them."Nayru, Din, Farore..I came to discuss what has been happening on The Surface world. The people are being naïve and will not believe that war is coming! ..There is one man, however, and I believe he is the one chosen to wield the Master Sword."Nayru was first to speak up.

"Ah, yes. The one they call, "Link" I presume? You seem to have taken an admiration for him, have you not?"Hylia blushed slightly.

"Nayru, I do not fancy him. I just see him as the one worthy of the title "Hero". I wish to go down to The Surface to meet him, so that I may present him with the sacred blade."Hylia explained before Din spoke up.

"Hylia, you know how dangerous that is. Many people may become jealous and lustful of you, just like Demise.."Hylia nodded.

"I am willing to take that chance to help our people. They need to open their eyes and prepare for this war or everything may be lost!"Farore sighed and finally spoke up.

"Very well, Hylia, but you must come straight back here once the war is over, alright?"Hylia smiled and curtsied once more.

"Thank you, I promise that I'll be back once The Surface is at peace again."The three goddesses then spoke in unison.

"Now go on, Hylia. You have our blessings."Hylia nodded and then took her leave to prepare for her descent to The Surface world.

Hylia made sure to grab her Goddess Bow just in case she would need it along with her Goddess Harp and the Master Sword.

Demise was thinking things through. Somehow the recent raid he had used on that pathetic town survived. He suspected that, that Accursed Hylia was behind it but why we wondered they were just a normal batch of mortals. Unless...

"So she has chosen her so called hero eh? It matters not I shall crush him and take her for my own." Demise mused as a explosion of multi-colord diamonds appeared in front of him and bowed to him.

"Master... I have news it seems that our minions were all killed with either a kunai or a senbon to their jugulars I suspect that one of the Sheikah tribe is behind that. I do not know which one though since they are fast even for my speed." the figured explained to the large Demon King.

"Ah probably the one called Impa, Ghirahim. She is the one under Hylia and chosen from her tribe of shadows. Keep an eye on her, I suspect that she helped the town for Hylia's Chosen Hero. Come let us gather the troops we shall squash that town like we originally planned personally." Demise stated as Ghirahim transformed into a large onyx blade with a red jewel at the hilt forming the Dark Blade.

"Soon I will gain the power I have searched for,for millenia. The Legendary Triforce." Demise exclaimed as he laughed manically.

Link awoke a few hours later and decided to start training to make sure his skills were up to his par. His shield bash was never the best and he needed to make sure he was much more proficient in the way so that he could defend himself properly so that he wouldn't be taken off guard by those with larger and heavier blades. Luckily he was ambidexterious so he could use either hand for his sword or shield.

As he continued to train he felt his body getting back into the flow of a battle. He noticed a glim of metal in the distance along with a red nose and smirked slightly.

'Good a few bokoblins and maybe a Moblin good way to release some of my anger on my village.' Link thought to himself as he drew an iron and attached it to his Iron Bow as he shot one of the Bokoblins right in between the eyes. Leaving the rest to scream in frustration as Link drew his sword and shield after putting away his bow which was attached by a loop in his belt.

The Bokoblins surrounded him completely as three Moblins were on the outer part forming a triangluar formation. Link allowed them to get closer before added some fire magic to the metal of his blade as he quickly charged it up and spun in a completely 360 degree spin setting his enemy on fire as the Moblins raged at the deaths of their brothers.

They encircled him as Link began a chant of Ancient Hylian which few actually knew since none except priests cared to learn the ancient language and prefered the normal Hylian language.

"Invoco a bendición sagrada do amor Naryu para protexer do mal a túa"

Suddenly a purple barrier surround Link as it protected him from harm as he began to shred their wooden shields to bits with a few well-aimed slashes thus enraging the Moblins to attack recklessly. Link took advantage of this and stayed along their sides to slash at them while shield bashing their spears to disarm them before ending their lives with a cut to the jugular since their fat protected them from his sword's bane.

Hylia walked over to her loftwing and stroked him."Ready for a long flight down to the Surface, boy?"

The large, majestic bird turn his head to look at Hylia and nodded, squawking happily. Hylia smiled and kissed his head before mounting onto his back. The bird then flapped his wings, letting out a rather loud squawk before taking off and flying down towards The Surface. Hylia frowned at all the desolation and wreckage she saw as they flew towards Link's location. She hoped that once the war was over, she could help reverse the effects and make The Surface beautiful and plentiful once more.

Link had effectively cut down any remaining Moblins and Boboklins with only a few scratches on his outfit and some slight bleeding cuts on his right cheek which ironically made an X. Link was slightly glad it was only scratches and not anything major like a broken bone or sprained ankle. Monsters as cheap as these would take an advantage that they could get and use it against whoever their target was not matter what.

As Link sat down in front of a clear meadow with tall grass he began to get lost in thought on his next move. He could try to gather forces but most of his friends were already out of the village fighting the enemy despite the mayor saying that there was no reason to do this. Sadly they were the only ones to see Link's words completely. It had angered him to the point where he wanted to slit the mayor's throat and lead the town himself but it would be too much work for him since he was already a guardian of his area along with teaching the children how to fight and train in case they ever wanted to go for knighthood. He had high hopes for some of the youngsters though some needed to get their ass in gear and stop being lazy.

Link also was thinking about the note that Impa had given him with his new shield. Would this Hylia actually be coming down to the surface? She hasn't done so in many eons since probably the dawn of time itself which was way before even his great-grandparents were thought of. He studied the landscape around him and saw barely any foilage. He hoped that he would be able to get this forest back to the way it used to be after it wouldn't be called Faron Woods without majestic trees in the area.

Link slowly got up as he began to watch the sunrise in the distance and smiled softly to himself as it rose. It was times like these and twilight along with a full moon on a clear starry night that he could appreciate nature and its wonder that it still held besides all the destruction around him.

Hylia continued to look at the all wreckage as she flew around and then stopped near the area that used to be Faron Woods. Its once majestic trees were now burnt and withered and the ground was now barren and covered in bodies of Bokoblins and innocent forest creatures that had perished in the battles.

A crystalline tear made its way down her cheek, but then she noticed a familiar man, staring at the twilight. She could sense that he was the one that she was looking for. She quickly wiped the tear away and commanded her loftwing to carefully land near Link. The majestic bird and nodded and began to lower himself slowly and flapped his wings a bit as he began to land.

Link ears twitched as he hear giant wings flapping in the surrounding area and looked around to see where the sound was coming from and his eyes widenly slightly at the large crimson bird that was landing in the opposite side of the clearing,Link made a motion to grab his blade but almost immediately he noticed a calming aura surrounding the area as small animals that had survived the raids come into the clearing as well. He noticed that small birds were perched on his shoulders and head.

He let go of the hilt of his blade as he waited to see what the showing of this large bird would mean for him that didn't mean he didn't let down his guard especially in this deep of the Faron Woods. The damage was so bad that he had heard from passing Gorons in the area that the Water Dragon,Faron sealed the way to her small palace under the water but not that you couldn't get there with one of her scales anyway.

Hylia slowly dismounted her Crimson Loftwing and smiled as she stroked him a bit as thank you. She then turned her attention to Link and walked towards him a little.

"Greetings, Link of the Surface. I am Hylia, the Goddess of Time. I have come to present you with the blade of evil's bane, the Master Sword."She carefully removed the sheath containing the Master Sword from her back, and gently held it in her hands.

"You are the Hero, chosen to wield this sacred blade and battle against Demise. Will you accept it?"She then held the Master Sword out to him, awaiting for his response, which she hoped would be "Yes."

Link looked over the blade as he eyed the Goddess and the blade she held as he gripped it carefully in his hand feeling the weight of the blade. Link looked into Hylia's eyes as he saw no malice or hatred. He saw passion,kindness,compassion and other positive emotions for a Goddess as beautiful as her. Link blushed slightly as he gazed into her crystalline azure pools and avoided eye contact before going to his knee and bowed before her making his choice.

"I accept this honor and will do whatever you may ask of me my Goddess. I am your sword and shield against the one you call Demise." Link exclaimed as he struck the ground with the blade and wait for Hylia to allow him to rise once again.

He secretly wished he could be by her side always but knew that fate would have other plans for himself and the Goddess of Time. He would do all that he could at her whim so that they may succeed in their mission for peace and tranquity.

Hylia smiled."Thank you…You may rise, Link, my Chosen Knight."

She gazed into Link's eyes and saw courage, strength, and confidence, as well as compassion and kindness. She then averted her gaze to his muscular figure. The pants and undershirt he wore clung to legs and arms, easily showing his well-toned muscles. His chest looked equally as toned, maybe even slightly more muscular. He was perfect. She blushed ever so slightly and turned her gaze back up to meet his beautiful, azure pools on his handsome, though slightly battle scarred face.

Link rose to his feet as he took the shealth from Hylia and place the Master Sword in the shealth as he replaced it with his old training blade and put his shield on his shealth as well as he took off his cape and cracked his neck slightly getting the kinks out of his neck as he looked over at her with a civilized pose and smiled softly at her.

"What do we do first your Grace? I know that a few of my friends who are knights are currently driving any enemies out of the surrounding regions of your temple and the Faron Woods." Link inquired to the Goddess of Time.

Hylia nodded and smiled.

"That's good. We must gather as many warriors as we can and form an army to face Demise.."

She once again gazed into Link's beautiful azure pools, but then quickly looked away. No, she needed to focus on the war, not Link.

"We should head to the closest town first. I trust that you know the way there, my Chosen Knight?"

Link nodded as he gave her his cape with a hood stitched to it as he explained while Hylia rose a crooked eyebrow.

"We don't need to let others know you are here. Plus I am sure someone would snitch to our enemies about you on the surface. Shealth is key for now my Goddess." Link stated as she doned his cape and walked beside him as he lead them to the town.
