Authors Note: Hey guys! A special friend of mine, princessanastasiaromanov464, asked me to do a story taking place after Majora's Mask, so I put together some ideas and here it is! I promised her that it would be up by today, so without further ado, enjoy!


Link's POV

"HEYA!" Link shouted before he came down on Majora's Wrath one last time. Screaming, the mask disintegrated into ashes. Meanwhile, the evil moon being pushed away by the Four Giants rose back again in its normal orbit.

Link smiled. He had just saved Termina from the evil moon! Heading back to where the Giants were, Link was greeted by lots of happy people.

However, Link was very homesick. He wanted nothing more than to return to the kingdom of Hyrule, where he belonged. He hopped on Epona and bid everyone farewell, including the Skull Kid. Nudging her along, Link headed back towards Hyrule.

When Link arrived at Hyrule, Princess Zelda was there to greet him. "Link! I missed you so much! How are you?" she asked as she hugged him tightly. Link smiled and hugged her back. "Zelda, I missed you too! I'm so exhausted though" he sighed. "I'm going to take a nap, see you later!" Link waved before galloping towards the Lost Woods.

Entering the woods, Link made himself a bed of leaves. Laying down, he closed his eyes. Before long, he fell asleep in the woods next to Epona.

A few hours later, Link opened his eyes. The sun was just starting to set in the sky, indicating that it was getting late. Standing up, he rubbed Epona's nose and hugged her. "Oh Epona, I'm so tired of being a hero. I mean, saving the kingdom is exhausting! Maybe I should take a break" he said to her.

Epona lowered her head and whinnied softly. Link smiled and kissed her on the forehead. "You're right, girl. I do deserve a break, and what better way than to spend it with you and Zelda?" he giggled. Link mounted on Epona and nudged her onward towards the castle.

"Zelda! Zelda, come here!" he exclaimed when he rode up to the castle. Stepping out on the balcony, Zelda looked down at him. Her blonde hair was gently blowing behind her, due to the gentle breeze in the air. Her lovely blue eyes were sparkling with happiness and joy. Link stared at her for a long time. All he could think about was her beauty and grace. She was so beautiful and kind, but he doubted that a princess like her would.

"What is it, Link?" she asked curiously. "Oh, well um I need you to come down so I can tell you face to face!" he responded. He couldn't just shout out what he was planning to do! "Oh, alright, I'm coming!" Zelda responded before heading down to him.

"Zelda, I want to run away" he said when she arrived. 'What? Why?" she asked. "Well, it's just that I am tired of being a hero! I mean, saving Hyrule over and over and over again is getting pretty tiring. So, I decided that I am going to take a break from it all, and run away" he sighed.

Zelda looked like she was about to cry. "Oh Zel, please don't cry. Please don't cry! Besides, I want you to come with me! We could run away, together!" Link smiled. Zelda looked up at him and shook her head. "No, Link I can't. I must stay to protect and rule over Hyrule. My people depend on it" she sadly declined. 'I'm sorry, but I can't go with you."

Hearing that, Link's heart shattered. "You have to though! It wouldn't be the same without you" he mumbled. "What was that?" Zelda asked. "Nothing. Please please please go with me?" he asked once more, looking into her eyes. He put on the best pouty face he could. Zelda groaned and avoided eye contact. "Not the pouty face!" she giggled. "You know I can't stand the pouty face!"

Zelda's POV

Link looked at Zelda innocently. "Come on Zelda, what's the harm? I mean, your father rules the kingdom already. He can rule the kingdom just fine on his own!" "I know he can, but the thing is is that he would miss me! He would send out a search party to try and find me, and what would happen if we got caught? He would throw you in prison, and I would be grounded for life!" Zelda exclaimed.

"Zelda, please?" Link begged. His eyes were starting to tear up. "Please Zelda? I want you to come with me. No, I...I needyou to come with me!" "What was that last part?" Zelda asked while looking straight into his eyes.

Link looked away, clearly embarrassed. His face turned a little red from blushing. "Uh, I mean I want you to come with me" he quickly corrected. Zelda looked at him and sighed. "Link, I'm sorry but my answer is still no.

Link nodded. "I understand, I just thought that it would be nice to run away together, and forget about our duties. I mean come on, doesn't it get tiring being a princess? You have a lot of responsibility, and that is not an easy thing! Running away would make life easier for both of us!" he explained.

Zelda looked up at him with an excited expression. "You mean... I won't have any responsibilites?!" "Yeah, that's exactly it! The best part is, we have each other! Come on, lets go explore the world a little bit! I'm feeling frisky!" Link giggled.

Zelda giggled as well. "Oh, alright! Why not? I mean, I would love to get away! Let's go!" she smiled. Link cheered and helped her on Epona. As they raced away from the castle, Zelda wondered what her new life would be like. She was extremely excited to spend her time with Link.

Meanwhile, a hooded creature was standing in a dark cave, looking at a magic crystal ball. In the ball, it showed Link and Zelda running away. "Good, good. Now I can finally take over Hyrule once and for all! BWAHAHAHA!" the hooded creature said in a raspy voice.

Little did they know, Link and Zelda were making a very bad decision. A very bad decision that could possibly cost them their lives and destroy Hyrule if they take the wrong path of life.


Alright, so there is the first chapter! That was just a little intro to get you introduced to the whole story. More will be coming soon, but right now I am working on Chapter 17 for my other fanfiction story. Please review! Thank you :)
