This is a Legend of Zelda, Fullmetal Alchemist, DCU, and Doctor Who crossover staring Link and Ed, costarring Commissioner Gordon, with only slight Doctor Who. (The Doctor is only in the Prologue chapters and he makes no other appearances. He's more of a way to explain how they get where they're going. You don't have to know anything about Doctor Who or the DCU to enjoy this story, only Legend of Zelda and Fullmetal Alchemist.)

This story is already close to completion, but I'll only be updating one chapter a week. There are parts where you'll find sections encased [like this]. These are summaries of what are supposed to be here but since this is a hobby, I didn't write those scenes. It's more than likely that by the time a chapter with [one of these] is posted, the scene will be finished anyway. But just in case, it's not a mistake, I meant to not do that.

Again, you do not have to know anything about Doctor Who or the DCU, only Legend of Zelda and Fullmetal Alchemist and really, you only need to know Fullmetal Alchemist, pretty much anything you need to know about Zelda ends up getting explained anyway but you have to have either read the FMA manga or watched Brotherhood to understand a lot of the things that will go down with Ed. This is because FMA is a Manga and LoZ is a video game. The whole of FMA is about Ed and his personal story. Link doesn't even talk so even if you have played Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask, you'd still know just as much about Link's personal story as you would if you hadn't played those games.

Once more: You do not need to know or even like Doctor Who or the DCU to enjoy this story. It's primarily a FMA and LoZ crossover!

Chapter 1

Prologue: I Have a Feeling We're not in Hyrule Anymore, Edward Elric

Link had no idea where he was. This was rather common for the young boy since he's always traveling. His only companion and friend is the flaxen filly, Epona, whom he is normally riding. Epona was acting strangely, so Link had decided it was best to let her follow behind him rather than sit on her back and let her lead the way.

They had been walking down the road in a little village they had come across after getting lost in the woods from which no one had ever returned, browsing for supplies in shop windows, when a dark figure emerged silently from an alleyway, clamped a wet cloth soaked in a liquid that smelled pungently sweet over Link's mouth and nose and dragged the boy, kicking and screaming, into the darkness just as quietly as he had appeared. Epona, though not easily startled, reared, tripping on one of the many cobblestones that paved the road and sidewalk, falling to the ground with a sickening thud.

Link saw her fall and fear gripped his heart. He tried to break free and go to her but no matter how the boy struggled he couldn't get free from his captors hostage hold. Link's heart leapt into his throat and his stomach was full of cold knots. He tried to reach out to his injured companion, but his kidnapper pulled him away to quickly.

No one saw. No one came to help. All he could do was scream through the hand over his mouth as the world began to spin around him and until what little light remained faded away.

When Link woke, his head hurt like there was no tomorrow and he couldn't see very well. He was in a cell, but where the cell was he hadn't the faintest idea. He prayed that his horse was alright before opening his eyes and taking a look around.

The cell was made of metal, but the light was so bad he couldn't make out what color it was. The door looked like the door to a metal ship, with a bared circular window. No normal person would be breaking through that door. The ground beneath Link hummed and, though he couldn't see very well in the dim light, the light that did exist in this strange place glowed in an unnatural orange hue. Link decided to get to his feet and see if there was anyone guarding his cell. He wanted to ask what was going on, but when he tried to stand, he found that his hands were clamped to the wall by some sort of magic emanating from a metal bump in the wall above his head. To Link's wrists it felt like chains but to his eyes it looked like light made solid.

Link could tell Epona was nowhere to be found and he doubted that whoever had kidnapped him would have checked to make sure she was alright. Link felt the all to familiar sense of loneliness press down on him, almost suffocating him.

"How do I always end up in situations like this?" He lamented to himself, not intending for anyone to hear him.

"Tell me about it," another boy's voice echoed from across the hallway. It seemed Link was not the only one in such a strange predicament. The other boy's voice sounded hoarse, like he too had been drugged to sleep and woken up in the strange cell with a sore throat and a pounding headache.

"Do you have any idea where we are?" Link asked.

"Beats me," the other boy answered, confidence filled the boy's voice. He sounded much older than Link, but not quite old enough to be an adult yet. "You wouldn't happen to know what's going on, would you?" The other boy asked.

"No, I was hopping you'd know something," Link answered. There was just as much fear in his voice as there was confidence in his fellow prisoner's.

Link, though renowned where he came from as a hero of courage, amongst other things, felt fear fill his gut when he realized there was no way he'd get out of this without some outside help. There was no way he'd be able to muster that much confidence in an alien place so superior to anything else he had come against. And even if he could, he would be lost in a world that surpassed anything he had ever known.

"My name's Link," Link said.

"Edward Elric, the Fullmetal Alchemist," the other boy answer. He sounded preoccupied, though still over confident and a little brash. "You can call me Ed. Is there anyone who would want to kidnap you?"

"A few come to mind, yeah. You?"

"Same. What is this thing?" Ed wondered aloud. He seemed to be bound to the wall of his cell in a similar fashion as Link.

"No idea," Link grumbled.

The light shackles didn't look like something Link could get out of on his own.

Link was about to ask Ed the names of the people who would like to kidnap him, so that they could see if they both had a name in common, or maybe ask if Ed had seen Epona, when footsteps echoed down the hall Link assumed was on the other side of his cell door.

"Hey! Who's there!" Ed shouted angrily. He was much to loud for Link, but hey, to each his own special method of annoying the people you shouldn't annoy.

"Shut up, brat," a woman's voice, young, yet harsh, snapped impatiently from the other side of the door. From the head shaped shadow that blocked the steady, unnatural orange light from seeping into Link's cell, he could deduce that she was right outside of his cell.

"Hey, you kidnapped me! I deserve answers!" Ed shouted back. Link may not have had as much experience with being a prisoner since that last time he had been kidnapped he managed to escape within seconds, but he was certain that a captive wasn't supposed to bite the hand that could very well punch back.

"Uh, I don't think getting mad is a good idea right now," Link, though having not the privilege to see his new friend, still would feel a little guilty if anything happened to the other boy without him having at least tried to help him a little.

"I'll do what I want!" Ed shouted back. Link herd a loud clanking sound come from across the corridor from where Ed was and assumed that Ed was trying to get free from his ethereal bonds. "And I want to know who you are and why you've kidnapped us!"

"Silence, boy!" A resounding bang echoed through the dungeon or wherever they were. The woman had slammed a fist on Ed's door, effectively shutting him up. Link could feel the anger and hatred wafting from the other side of the door, though if it came from his fellow prisoner or from the woman, he couldn't tell.

"The All-Seer wishes for an audience with the prisoners." The woman addressed a guard who had remained silent until this point.

"Ma'am," he clicked his heals together respectfully and Link assumed he saluted before a click came from Link's door and it swung open, revealing a woman in dark robes holding a spear like cross bow thing the likes of which Link had never seen before. It was undoubtedly a weapon, but it didn't look like anything he had seen before. There was a blade like thing attached to the top made of the same light that held Link's arms firmly against the wall. It looked very ornamental, but still very deadly.

The woman entered Link's cell. She reached out and pressed her palm on the bump in the wall and the light faded away, releasing his arms. She pointed the not friendly end of her weapon at Link as he massaged his wrists that felt slightly burnt. He didn't dare make a move for his bag, if it was still there, everything around him was too threatening. It was best to play it safe. For now, anyway.

"Get up," the robed woman snapped.

She kicked at Link, who didn't manage to get out of the way in time to avoid getting hurt. He did manage to hold in his yelp of pain, though, so he still had that. He quickly got to his feet and walked out of the cell with the glowing black pressed lightly, but threateningly, against his back. The guard grabbed Link's arms and harshly twisted them behind his back, binding him with what felt like more solid light.

The corridor that Link found himself in was even stranger than the cell. It was bathed in the glowing orange light that came from strange sources embedded into the walls like torches or lamps but not like any Link had ever seen. Nothing Link found was anything he'd ever seen before and he couldn't put words on anything other than 'thing that could be potentially threatening'. Link didn't think now was a good time to ask for Epona, though he wanted to desperately.

"Help me with this one," the woman jerked her head towards the door across from Link's cell. "He'll be trouble if not properly restrained."

"Hey!" Ed shouted from his cell. "You'd better LET ME OUT!"

"Or what?" The woman looked slightly less confident when faced with the daunting task of dragging Ed out of his cell and to wherever this All-Seer was. Link couldn't help but wonder who this Edward Elric the Fullmetal Alchemist was to strike fear into this woman who probably didn't fear much. "You'll shout at me, boy?" She tried to sound more confident than she looked, though she was still holding a weapon and Ed was most likely chained to a wall in a dark cell, so she didn't need too much of a confidence boost. It was getting the other boy out of the cell without causing a huge ruckus that bothered her.

"I'll do worse than shouting, lady," Ed all but snarled.

"If you do not cooperate, you spoiled little dog," the woman snarled back through the barred window. "You're little friend here will get a bullet in the head. You wouldn't want that, now would you?"

"Damn you," Ed grumbled. "That's low."

Link didn't know what a bullet was, but he assumed that it wasn't good and came from her weapon. When the robed woman decided that Ed would willingly let himself get dragged along with Link, she entered the cell and removed him from the wall, putting him in more portable restraints. She led him into the corridor while the other guard grabbed Link's upper arm and pressed a smaller weapon against Link's temple.

Edward Elric was wearing red. He had a big traveling cloak that was bright red, like fresh blood or the bird on Link's Hylian Shield. Link's sword and shield had been confiscated when he had awoken, he realized. Under the very red cloak Ed wore a black coat with white trim, leather pants with a red belt, black combat boots with red soles, and white gloves. His hair was golden blond and shone bright in the orange light and his eyes, the same golden color of his hair, blazed with anger and arrogance. He didn't seem to be taking well to Link being threatened at Ed's own fault. He was about a foot taller than Link and looked about seven years older as well.

"How old are you, kid?" Ed asked. Link didn't like being called a kid, but he'd let the angrier boy get away with for now. Neither of them were in a position to argue with anyone.

"Ten or eleven, I don't remember," he answered, uncomfortable under the pressure of the guard's choking grip on his arm and the cold press of metal from the man's weapon. "Or know, really."

"Let him go," Ed ordered the woman. "He's just a kid."

"You will both stop your chatting and come with me," she shoved Ed forward down the corridor at the point of her weapon and Ed begrudgingly let himself get lead by her as the guard dragged Link, still hostage, behind them.

The woman lead them through a corridor that was more brightly lit than the dungeon area. The orbs of light in this area were bright white or pale blue and the metal walls were white and black with a few blue and red lines indicating things in a script Link couldn't distinguish, not that he could distinguish many.

After walking through at least two different well lit corridors they were shoved into a smaller room that had light glowing through thin windows that moved up and down. Since they came out in what looked like a reception hall, Link assumed the room moved with some sort of magic that he couldn't explain. Everything was so strange here, but Ed seemed to understand slightly what was going on. At least, more than Link did.

The hall was vast and very high up. The massive windows showed a glorious night sky that Link did not recognize, and though an unfamiliar night sky was a common sight for Link, the fact that there was no sight of land made Link shiver. The interior of the hall was made from the same metal as outside but the lights were orange again, giving the room an unearthly glow. An elevated throne rose above the reception hall and a shriveled old man lay on it. He was much too old to do anything but lay on his death bed, which was, in this case, a throne in a hall suspended in the night sky. Quite the place to go down fighting but Link didn't feel like going down just yet.

"Who are you?" Ed asked as they were led closer and closer to the shriveled old creature. "Where are we? What do you want with us?"

"You will be silent in the presence of the All-Seer, impertinent brat!" The woman jabbed her light blade into Ed's back, not hard enough to impale him, but hard enough to leave a brunt bruise and shove him to his knees. Link's guard also shoved his charge to his knees and removed the weapon from against Link's temple, but the boy could still feel the weapon aimed at his head.

"I will answer your questions in hopes that you will be wise enough to answer mine," the shriveled old All-Seer wheezed from his metal throne. "Who are we? We are the Oracles of the Seven Systems and I am its head. Where are you? You are on our star ship, so that we may contain you better. What do we want with you, my dear boy?" He chuckled like a dying old person. "We want nothing from you at all."

"Then let us go," Ed snarled. "Right now."

"And where will we let you go to, child?" The All-Seer chuckled again. He seemed amused by Ed's anger. "We are in the depths of space. There is nowhere for you to go to but to the void of darkness in between the stars."

"I don't understand," Link whined, his mind trying desperately to grasp the old man's words and give them meaning. "How can we be in the sky? Are we in heaven?"

"Ah, I seem to have forgotten that one of our hostages is from a world that has not yet invented science fiction, let alone space travel. You must be very lost, child."

"Some one explain," Link hated how lost he sounded, but he felt his world spiraling away again. Like when he had been kidnaped and drugged. Nothing had made sense, but now it made even less sense. Sure, there were stars in the sky, but only birds could fly and not even they could get so high that they would be on the same level as the stars. Were they inside some giant metal bird that could go between the lights? "Please, what do you mean space? What does that mean?"

"My dear boy," the All-Seer waved a boney, aged hand to the window. "The light you see in the night sky are out there. All around us. Your home is but one of the many lights. We are, so to speak, in the space between worlds and your's is but one of many. Surely your precious Doctor would have already explained this, no?"

"I don't know who you're talking about," Link exasperated. "You mean the Astronomer in Clock Town? Dr. Shikashi?"

As soon as the words left Link's mouth a monk with his hood up entered the room. He didn't seem to be expected because both the woman and the guard almost threatened him with their weapons before noticing he was dressed like them.

"You know exactly who the All-Seer is taking about, boy," the woman snarled. "Don't act dumb. We can see right through it. We all know you know the Doctor!"

"Doctor who?" Both boy's asked at the same time.

The hooded monk was right behind them now.

"Doctor me!" He shouted, removing his hood, revealing a young man who couldn't have been more than ten years older than Ed, at the most. "Okay, I'm never saying that again."
