Well, I've done some editing of some things, so if it looks a little different then that is why.

Chapter One: Stuck in the Past

When I woke up, I realized that I was not where I had fallen. In fact, although I recognized where I was at, it should not have been. Just looking around was enough to realize that I was either in an alternate dimension, or I was simply in the past.

You see, I recognized this place because it had been a part of one of my past lives' adventures. This was back when the Gerudo Desert was still completely cut off from the rest of the world and was still a prison for evil. This was before the Mirror of Twilight was forgotten and hidden. Moreover, this was before Ganon first died and then reincarnated. For you see, a thousand years ago my time Ganondorf was merely sealed away as he had been for a long time. Since he reincarnated anyway, I think it would be safe to assume that he had gotten himself murdered in the Dark Realm where he was sealed. Here, he was exiled, wounded, to the Twilight Realm but not killed.

If I were to remember correctly, then this would be the first time I were to kill him in our centuries long battle of seal and reincarnate to seal again.

I pulled off my left glove and examined the back of my hand. The Triforce of Power still glowed there. If I had it, then did Ganon have it still, and if he did, did that mean there were two Triforces of Power? How would that affect the space-time continuum or whatever?

Either way, I had to find out more and to do that I would need to travel to one of the cities here. Since I would look too much like a doppelganger of my past self-looking like Link the Hero of Time, I decided to adopt my true form. I simply created a black, hooded cloak with my shade powers, put it on and pulled the hood up.

It was the best I could do until I found out how far into the adventure my past self was.

Currently, I was in the Faron Woods. A place not at all like the Kokiri Forest I most recently got used to. Really, it was more of a buffer between the fields of Hyrule and the lands of Ordon Village.

Ordon was a village I had been born into, what? Five, six thousand years ago? Either way, it was a long time ago, and I could barely remember what had happened. I knew, however, that if I saw something, then it would jog memories about it. Like places and whatnot.

I really wanted to call for Epona, but…What if my past self was already riding her? That was not the way I wanted to meet my other self. Especially since I would then have to explain how I knew to call her, when technically I hadn't even met her yet. All this thinking was giving me a headache.

Stupid time reversal.

Therefore, I decided to attempt to warp and see how many warp gates my previous self had opened yet, and then I could find out where his progress was and move from there. Simple, right? Or so I hoped. If Zant or Midna noticed a third party using the warp gates, things could potentially get awkward.
