Beginnings

Disclaimer: I don't own Zelda, but I sure wish I did.

After a long time of wait, here it is! The Sequel to The Legend of Zelda: A New Hero! This one takes place 8 years after the last chapter in the prequel to this story. Hope you really enjoy it!

Morning in Hyrule…

It was morning in Hyrule, in Lake Hylia. Shara splashed into the water from the bridge not to far away from the laboratory, Lunard splashed in after her, then Saori, and little 8-year-old Relin watched from the shore, splashing his feet in the cool water. It seemed like nothing had changed, everything was normal, except the fact that the Princess was missing and the Prince was left alone to take care of Hyrule. The disappearance was secret; no one knows where the Princess and the Prince of the Gerudos went off to, leaving Relin behind to be taken care of by Link's family. It was difficult to take care of Relin, judging on that he didn't know his parents and hates them for leaving him behind. But even from the hatred he was happy a little to be like a sibling to Lunard and Shara, or maybe even Shara's own son. Karina and Link took care of him of course, but he always asked questions, to many questions, and no one could answer them. But he was treated fairly… like family.

Relin glanced up from his splashing feet, watching Shara swim up to him. "Hey Shara!" he shouted, getting to his feet and waving. Shara got off the drop-off and walked up to him, her bikini meaning nothing to him. Shara smiled and bent down to cup some water in her hands, and splashed it at Relin. Relin laughed and took off his boots and socks and ran into the water, kicking up water with his bare feet at Shara. They both laughed as they smothered each other with water. Shara smiled and grabbed Relin by the waist, carrying him with her as she ran to the drop-off and jumped in.

It was a normal, typical day, practically the same as always, 8 years had passed since Ganondorf had arrived and tried to kill everybody… again, but he came with a friend, eight solid years since the event. Everyone had grown to prosper, Lunard and Saori had a baby, Malon had a baby, Shara didn't, but she was getting to be beautiful like her mother. Everything had changed…. Though some things stayed the same.

Saori swam up to shore along with Lunard and they got up onto the grass. "I best go back to the Ranch, Lunard. Lunar could be getting hungry." She said, slipping on her clothes, even though she was still wet. Lunard nodded.

"I'll come with you then." Lunard suggested, reaching for his clothes that lay bathing in the sun. Saori shook her head.

"You stay here with your family. I'll be fine." She said. Lunard smiled and walked up to her, kissing her on the lips good bye. "Bye!" she shouted, getting on to Epona and riding off.

The Lon Lon Ranch still belonged to Link and Karina, even if Malon and Talon came to visit. When Malon gave birth to her daughter, Fern was her name; she went back to her husband in Termina.

Relin ran away from Shara as she tried to splash him again and ran to safety by Lunard. "Shara's trying to splash me!" he shouted. Lunard looked down at the mini Aaron that stood by his leg. It was unbelievable to believe that Aaron and Zelda just got up and left when they gave birth to him. Lunard smiled, but it was quite amazing, it seemed Relin was the one who replaced them both because of the resemblance. Relin's red flared hair, his tan, peachy skin, and his stern face with deplorable eyes of brown. Lunard shook away the thought and ran towards his twin sister, kicking up water at her with his bare feet like Relin did the first time. Relin laughed and clapped his hands together to see his vengeance being taken.

"What are you laughing at?" Lunard shouted, spinning around and kicking some water at him. Relin gasped as the water hit him, they were ganging up on him! Shara and Lunard both kicked water at him, making him laugh and run away.

Relin laughed and Shara giggled as she chased after him and tackled him. It was so magical, the one-day where Karina had insisted that they go to the lake and have a little fun in the water with Relin while Link and her self stayed home and took care of the ranch and their own business. Shara knew what they meant by it, but still hadn't been able to have the pleasure herself, being she still hadn't had anyone good enough for her, making her still a virgin. Though no one teased her about it, didn't pressure her with the pleasures she could receive, she passed by it and ignored it, waiting for the right moment to come and when it did, she'd be happy.

Shara got off Relin and held him tightly, holding him close to her. Relin was like Shara's son, and she treated him just that way, nurturing him like a mother should treat their child. It was amazing though with the benefits it was to have Relin, a small child is like a son, and Shara had a whole idea of how to treat her own real child when it finally came to that.

Lunard sighed sand collapsed on to the ground, the grass cushioning his fall. Shara fell to the ground also, letting go off Relin and let him roll on the grass laughing still. It was a good day, but at the end of every good thing was an end, they needed to return home. Shara stood up, messed with Relin's fair hair and slipped her clothes over her wet bikini. Lunard stood up as well and put his shirt on over his wet chest and walked over to Relin. Reluctantly Relin grasped hold of Lunard's hand and they set off fro the horses waiting for them to decide when to head back home.

Lon Lon Ranch…

Karina shuffled through the kitchen, checking to make sure the potatoes were rightfully cooked and softened and often checking the fish Link had caught the other day. How long ago had it been when Relin had first joined the family? She was cooking the same exact thing, potatoes and fish. When Karina was certain the potatoes were good she sent them on the counter on a plate and cut each of them open with a knife. Cooking the dinner brought back fond memories of Relin when he was just a baby, but it also brought back the sad memories of him joining the family. Why had Zelda and Aaron left in the first place, she wondered sometimes. Though no one was there to answer that question for her, not even Adia, who lived up in Death Mountain answered her questions. The fish were finally at a good crisp and she took them off the stove, placing each fish on a separate plate and putting a potato next to each fish. She was getting old, she admitted, but then again, so was Link.

Time and time again she looked at herself in the mirror and spotted small streaks of white hair mixed among her brown. Even Link, though no one could see any white spots among his mess, but his stubby beard was no longer stubby, it was quite pronounced now. Karina sighed and wiped her eyes of any loose tears and extinguished the fire for the stove, a knock suddenly came to the door. She turned around and noticed Link coming down the stairs, his chin slightly shaven and his white tunic freshly cleaned from yesterday's laundry. Karina smiled at his clumsiness and proceeded to the door. Not so eagerly she opened the door and Saori came in, no doubt to check on the newborn child. Only 1-year-old was Saori and Lunard's child. And Saori paid very close attention to it, eager to make her child live a happy prosperous life.

Karina smiled as Saori walked by and preceded upstairs to Lünar, her son. She didn't even stop to say hi at least, but that was expected from her. Karina kept the door open and minutes later Shara, Lunard, and Relin came home finally. She smiled, looking directly at Relin who skipped over to the table and jumped onto a chair, not being tall enough to just sit on down in it. Soon the kid would have a growth spurt and he wouldn't have to jump onto the chairs to sit in them. Karina shrugged and grabbed two plates and served the dinner to the hungry mouths. Soon Saori came back downstairs and ate dinner with them.

They ate their fill of food and they drifted to their rooms to sleep. Karina stayed at the table, sitting down, her hands in her lap as she wondered off in thought about Zelda and Aaron's disappearance. Would they ever return? If so when? Questions wondered her, she would of stayed downstairs asking her self the same thing but Link came downstairs and brought her to their bed.

Wrapped in her husband's arms, Karina fell asleep. Across the hall, Saori fell asleep the same way, in the middle of the hallway Shara fell asleep as well, not ashamed to fall asleep with no one else. And in the same room as Shara's, Relin, son of Aaron, the Prince of the Gerudos, and son of Zelda Princess of Hyrule, fell asleep with the feeling of loss and hatred still submerged in his heart. Never the feelings to be unleashed in till the time so arrived…

And so began the new story! Sequel to the Legend of Zelda: A New Hero.
