A/N: Okay I know this has been done before with some person from the futur going back and helping Link save Hyrule but I thought it was a cool idea so I did one myslef. My other story "The six warriors" isn't going as I had planned so I may end up deleting that one and do this one instead. Anyway hope you like this one, please leave a review!
Where am I?
What is this place?
Who are these people?
A young girl stood a good couple feet from what appeared to be a walled city. The drawbridge was down and a scary looking man on a black horse was talking to a small boy clad in green, and a little white fairy flying close to his head. Only moment before a white horse with an older women and a young girl for riders had rode out into the darkness of night and the pouring rain. As the young girl that had no idea where she was, stood there and watched on, the scary dark male raised his hand and what looked like a ball of energy shot at the young boy hitting him in the chest, knocking him over. The dark male laughed and then rode off…right towards the young girl. The small child turned around and ran, but after only a few steps she tripped and fell to her knees. The sound of hoofs grew louder and then stopped. Whimpering, she turned around and looked up at the malicious red eyes of the scary man. The male was dressed all in black; his fiery red hair cut short, and his sun-darkened skin almost looked green. The man looked down at the young girl and snarled.
"You! Not you again, why can't I get away from you! No matter, I will be rid of you once and for all." The male raised his hand and the glow of the same energy that had struck the boy before began to rise, only stronger in power, not meant to knock her over but to actually end her life. Giving a yell, he released the energy at the girl, and right before it hit her, she vanished. Left alone in the open field, the male raised his fist to the sky and cursed.
"Damn you!"
Again. She was here again. Over the past seven years she had come to this strange land, and had watched as it fell apart. The young women stood in front of the walled city; the drawbridge broken and the walls dark now after so many years of abuse. It had been this seventeen-year-old girl that had been here the night the dark man had hit the boy in green with the blast of energy. The girl had been here often, and everyday she felt the pain and suffering of the people of Hyrule, she had finally learned the name of this land, and the same of the dark man, Ganondorf. How she hated him for what he had done to such a beautiful land. As the teenager stood there lost in her own thoughts a sheikah came up behind her. The sheikah was dressed in a purple full body outfit, the family crest on his chest, and bandages wrapped around his head, face, and some on his hands. He had odd yet trustworthy red eyes, and spiky short blond hair, or at least that's what it looked like from what you could see under the head bandages.
"Hello Sheik." The teenager said, turning to look at him. Just like everything else about this land, the girl had come to know him, and had become very close friends with him.
"The Hero of Time stirs in his slumber, I can feel it. The time will soon come when the sages will be ready to awaken, and Ganondorf if becoming nervous with you walking around here, able to hear and see everything, you already know the layout's of the many temples that are found through out this land. He will come for you Misty, and he will bring you here in physical form for good." Sheik's voice was grave as he looked at him friend, and he kept his eyes averted from her face.
"What? What do you mean he's nervous about me? I'm only a seventeen-year-old girl there's nothing I can do! How would he even get me to this place in a physical form for good!" The girl named Misty cried, and Sheik turned to face her, mouth open to answer her most valuable question, and then…
"BEEPBEEPBEEP.BEEPBEEPBEEP.BEEEEEEEEEEEE-" SLAM! Misty gave a small groan after slamming her alarm clock to turn it off, and she raised her head off the pillow some to look at the darn thing and to find out exactly what time it was. 7:45 am.
"Son of a!" Misty cried as she flung the bed sheets of her, racing out of her room and down the hall. Coming to a sliding stop, she slide past the bathroom some before she reached out a hand to grab onto the door frame to stop herself completely. Dashing inside she slammed the door closed, and stripped off her clothes as fast as she could and hopped into the shower. Showering quickly she jumped out, brushed her teeth, did her hair and makeup, and with only the towel on, flew out the bathroom door and back down the hall to her room. Flinging the towel off she opened her draws and grabbed the first thing that her hands fell upon. While she dressed she went around the room and collected her binders and textbooks, shoving them into her book bag before dashing off to her dresser again to snatch up some accessories. Grabbing her bag, she ran down the stairs to the front door, where she stepped into her sneakers and peeked around the corner to look at the kitchen clock. 8:00am. Throwing her front door open she stepped out, locked it, and turned around to come face to face with her best friend Tiffany.
"Time?" Tiffany asked, just standing there with her hands on her hips.
"Seven forty five." Misty replied laughing as both turned away from the house and made their way down the street towards the high school.
"I don't know how you do it Misty, it takes me about an hour to look the way I do." Tiffany said as she made a sweeping gesture, indicating the way she looked.
"And you look great Tiff." She said truthfully. Tiffany was dressed in a light pair of designer blue jeans, a tight white tank top, and a matching blue vest. Her dark brown hair hung in ringlets down to her shoulders, framing her delicate facial features that so many guys could star at forever.
"I may look good, but if I did what you pulled every morning then it would be a different story, I mean it may be the year two-thousand and six but women still need the time to get ready, except for you that is." Tiffany continued as the two girls walked down the crowded side walk that lead to the high schools main entrance.
"Meh." Misty said. "I just grab whatever I get my hands on first." That comment was true too, though even she had to admit she still looked fine. She was dressed in a simple pair of light blue bellbottom jeans that zipped up on the left hip. A beige scarf was tied around her waist serving as a belt and she had on a tight black t-shirt. While Tiffany had on a set of pearl earrings, bracelet and necklace that must have cost a small fortune, Misty's accessories were more down to earth. Both her holes in her ears were filled with simple fake diamond studs, a timex watch on her left hand, a black sweat band with two red cherries on the front on her right wrist, a simple designed mood ring on her right thumb, her daughters pride ring on her right ring finger, and a small blue butterfly pendant on a simple silver chain hind around her neck. Makeup was light golden eye shadow and her shoulder length dark brown hair that was cur diagonally down from just below her eyes was, for once, straight.
"What ever." Tiffany said as the two walked into the school and down the hall to their lockers. Coming to a halt in front of them, Misty leaned her head onto the door and spun the dial to open the lock. Giving the lock a small pull, she opened her locker and went through the daily routine of grabbing the books she needed for her morning classes and putting away the books she didn't need.
"I had another dream last night." She said softly to tiffany as both girls closed their lockers. "Sheik was there again."
"And what did he have to say this time?" Tiffany asked as she leaned against her locker door, ignoring the first warning bell that rang.
"He said that Ganondorf wanted to get rid of me because I know too much about Hyrule." Misty said mimicking her friend as the students moved past them.
"Hey that's something serious." Tiffany replied with wide eyes, though she kept her voice down so they wouldn't be over heard.
"I know but what can I do?…We'll talk about this later." Misty answered back when the second bell rang. Giving a wave to each other the girls parted ways and headed off to their first period classes. As Misty made her way down a stairwell, she really realized how lucky she was to have friends like Tiffany, who believed her when she chose her to tell about the dreams. Sure she had been skeptical at first about her going to another land sometimes when she dreamt, but after getting hurt once there was no longer any doubts about the truth behind her words. And now she had something else to worry about, yep, she was sure glad she didn't have to go all through this on her own.
"Argh! I hate Wednesday's." Misty said. She was flat on her back on the stonewall that ran around the park that was near the school.
"What classes did you have this morning?" Tiffany called out from the picnic table she was eating at a couple feet away from the wall.
"Biology, Law, and Political Science."
"Well that's not too bad, you like Biology and Law."
"Yeah but not when I get told that I have tests in both classes on the same day while I'm worrying about some evil sorcerer guy kidnapping me." Came Misty's reply as she slung one arm over her forehead.
"Oh snap." Tiffany said, looking at her friend with a worried look. Before she could say anything else though, a tall male appeared from behind a tree, and made his way over to Tiffany's table. He was dressed in a pair of baggy dark blue jeans, a plain gray t-shirt, dark sunglasses, and to top it all off, a black cowboy hat over his curly brown hair. Jumping up on the table he walked over it and took a seat next to Tiffany.
"'Ello popits." He said, opening a small bag in his hand and pulling out an oreo cookie, stuffing it into his mouth. "Whufs ufs?"
"Ganondorf wants to kidnap Misty and keep her locked in Hyrule until he can kill her Michael, and she has a test in biology and law on the same day." Tiffany answered as she moved her chemistry notes so Michael wouldn't get cookie crumbs on them.
"No shit! Damn." Michael said looking over at his other best friend, he was the only other one that knew about Misty's dreams. "Wanna oreo?" He asked, holding out the bag.
"Yes." Misty said as she rolled off the wall, landing on her feet. She made her way slowly over to them, the table still some distance away when the ground suddenly seemed to vanish under her feet. Giving a small cry, she sank to her waist in what seemed to be some big purple portal.
"Misty!" Both Michael and Tiffany cried out as they sprang from the table and ran towards her.
"Stay back!" She ordered them as she struggled against the forced that was trying to pull her down into an unknown abyss. "This might be Ganondorf's doing, don't come near me."
"But.." Tiffany said as Michael held her back. "We just can't leave him have you!"
"I'll be fine." Misty said, giving them a small smile. "I'll miss you guys."
Unable to fight against the pull anymore, she let go and sunk below the surface of the purple portal. The last thing that her friends saw of her was a raised hand before their friend totally vanished. When the portal finally vanished, Michael let Tiffany go, and she fell to the ground where her friend had vanished.
"Misty!" She called out, and when no answer came she hugged her arms in closely and began to cry. Michael knelt down beside her and hugged her as he whispered through his own tears.
"She'll come back. I know it, Misty will come back to us Tiff."
Link walked across the broken drawbridge of the Hyrule market and blinked as the first rays of the early morning sun rose above the distant mountains, blinding Link momentarily. He had been locked away in the sacred realm for seven years, and so much had changed since then. He hadn't believed Rauru when he had said that Ganondorf had taken such complete control, but after walking through the market and fighting off the un-dead, Link no longer had such doubts.
"Hey!" Navi, Link's guardian fairy called out, and only continuing when she was sure that she had Link's full attention. "We should go to Kakariko village like Sheik said and look for what can help us reach Saria."
"Yeah you're right." Link responded, his deep voice still surprising him. Turning left from the drawbridge, Link and Navi made their way to the little stone bridge that made the only path across the river that flowed from Zora's domain to the castle. When the two reached the middle of the bridge, the sky grew dark, plunging the land into almost complete darkness.
"What the?" Link asked raising his eyes to the sky, just in time to see a purple portal open among the dark clouds, and from the portal fell a strangely dressed girl. Link was stunned as he watched her fall, but when she plunged into the river and didn't resurface right away he jumped into action.
Placing a hand on the railing of the bridge he jumped over and into the river. Swimming over to where he had seen the girl vanish, he took a deep breath and dove down into the water. Navi had followed obediently and by her white fairy light he was able to see well under the water. The river wasn't overly deep, and Link soon found the girl. Grabbing her around her slender waist, Link pulled her back towards the surface. As soon as they broke through the water, Link quickly pulled her to shore, and laid her gently flat on her back as he checked to make sure she was still breathing.
"Who is she?" Navi asked after Link had confirmed that she seemed to be alright.
"I don't know." Link answered looking at the girls youthful face. 'She can't be much younger then I.' He thought to himself and then spoke out loud to Navi. "We should take her to Malon, I bet she'll know what to do."
After Navi agreed to his plan, Link placed one arm under the girls legs and the other under her shoulders. Picking her up, the boy and his fairy made their way slowly over to Lon Lon Ranch.
Link knew that something was wrong at the ranch as soon as he walked up the path, and the gates past the house closing the main part of the ranch from the housing area didn't help his worries in the least. Peeking around the corner of the barn, he looked out across the wide pen where all the horses were kept during the day. The animals seemed to be cared for well enough, but this was not the way Link remembered the ranch.
There were a couple horses here and there that were saddled up for someone to ride them, and two large gate doors kept the horses locked in their pen. Mr. Ingo, the old stable hand, was standing next to the closed gates, dressed in expensive clothing that he would not have had way back when. Malon was no where's in sight.
Backing up so that he was sure to be out of Mr. Ingo's sight, Link turned and whispered to Navi.
"Let's check in the barn for Malon. I don't like the feel of this place."
Walking back to the barn door, Link shifted the still unconscious girl in his arms and managed to open the door. Quickly walking inside, he closed the door behind him and turned around to see a startled Malon. Knowing that she probably didn't recognize the small boy in green from seven years ago, Link acted as if he didn't know Malon at all.
"Please excuse me for this intrusion, but my friend needs help." He said, knowing that he wouldn't need to explain what friend he was talking about.
"Oh my." Malon said walking over to the three. "Please follow me to the house, we can lay her down inside."
Link gave a small nod of his head as he let Malon lead the way to the house. He hopped that at least now he would get at least a couple of his thousands of questions answered.
