This story will be told through both the goddess of courage; Farore, and the Fierce Deity; Oni link. It will be in their point of views, in case you want to know. Have fun reading!
Genre: Adventure/Romance
Pairing: Farore/Fierce Deity
Chapter 1- She leaves. He waits.
'Golden Goddesses.' 'Creators of Hyrule.' No matter what my sisters and I are called, the praises remain the same. We are the superior beings who had created a world of our own.
Those who live on the land that worship us call us the most powerful beings on earth. We live in the Sacred Realm, a world completely seperate from the world we have created for our people. It is bathed in a mystical, otherworldly beauty that nobody has ever seen before.
Many people have thought that the Sacred Realm is a place where they can relax and enjoy the company of others without having to worry about what is going on around them, others thought quite the opposite but never opposed beliefs. However, the Sacred Realm is more than what their imaginations hold.
Only I and my sisters know that, since we actually live there. The Sacred Realm is none other than a peaceful meadow. A meadow with mixtures of red, green, blue and gold. The flowers, the hills, the sky, everything is decorated with our colors.
We usually watch the world we had created to be sure that everything is in order. Din, the Goddess of Power, kneels down on her incredibly long legs and watches over the landscapes she created from her own hands to make sure every place and every creature were doing all right. She is usually pictured with the color red, since that red means power. She is my older sister. Some people who worship her actually picture her to be quite beautiful with long hair that is tied into a ponytail, eyes that put even the Goron's Ruby to shame, and they picture her to look like a warrior with armor that protected her chest and arms and legs.
Little did they know that they hit the bull's eye on that part. She definitely is a stunning goddess in my dictionary. Although I never knew how she is a powerful goddess in the first place but I do know that if you manage to tick her off on something, her whole body bursts as if she was a huge flame that is threatening to destroy you with just a simple touch. She would even go as far as to silence the people who don't respect us goddesses and try to destroy us.
Nayru, the Goddess of Wisdom, holds her hands in a eager way as she keeps watch to make sure the laws of Hyrule are in order. Most of her people think of her to be quite irresistible. They mostly imagine her to have long hair that would be mistaken for a river that flowed down her back, deep blue eyes that even the sky, the water, and the Zora's Sapphire don't even hold a candle to her beauty. And yes, she picked blue because of the serenity she holds for her people. They also pictured her to be either a scholar or a everyday royal would dress like. But they are quite mistaken for their beliefs. She goes in between when she wears a dress and holds a book in her hands. She is my younger sister.
You may know my name as Farore, the Goddess of Courage, I am the middle sister of the Golden Goddesses and I am widely known for my color of green. I chose that color to symbolize the life that I give to my people who follow my word along with my sisters. I am mostly believed to be overshadowed by my other sisters as they have done a few things far above my average power.
They say 'Action's speak louder than words'. Others say 'Power holds more than what wisdom and courage have combined.' Well, some of that saying is true for one thing... my actions somehow speak louder than whatever Nayru says, and by that we always manage to pick a fight with each other. Also, My oldest sister Din is usually the true leader of the group, not because that she is the oldest sibling of us goddesses, it is for the very reason that if either Nayru or I decide to do something, we have to talk it over with Din first.
I am also known to be the one who gives life to those who want to follow Nayru's law, and those who follow Din for power and strength, and those who look to me for the blessings to give the person their special meaning in life. Nevertheless, above all of them, I am addicted to watch over my chosen hero, Link.
He was blessed with my power of courage to stop evil from destroying the precious world we Goddesses had created. He maybe is a small child or an adult if you count the seven years of sleep in the Temple of Time, but he proves to be more than that. He is a Hero, a Savior, or a disguised servant of the Goddesses. I was very pleased with him for his unrecognizable bravery to save the world from the darkness that evil beings had created for themselves. From solving the temples and awakening the sages to stopping Ganondorf in his tracks, Link had successfully saved the future of Hyrule and its princess.
I once watched the two of our chosen ones when they were in the sky. Link could finally have a break from all of the work he had accomplished...and yet, only one thing ruined that moment. The one thing that did not please me was when Nayru convinced her chosen one, Princess Zelda, to bring Link back to his childhood.
Everything changed in an instance as Nayru's puppet played the ocarina and returned Link to his childhood.
I felt a few emotions coming through me as I charged toward my young sister, grabbed her cloak that hid her outfit, and lifted her up from the ground and looked at her straight in my eyes that glowed green.
"Why did you tell her to do that?" I yelled at her, I could tell that my voice was echoing in the Sacred Realm with full force from my uncontrollable rage.
"Farore, Link has to regain his lost memories of the past. It is the right thing to do for him, plus to keep Ganon from making the mistake that cost Hyrule its prosperous future." Nayru told firmly as she held onto my hand with a sympathetic look. She usually points out the obvious whenever she is threatened. And I knew that there was something she is trying to hide from me.
Based from her logical explanation, it deeply fueled the flame to my anger. I never wanted this pathetic excuse from my own sister, and my chosen hero didn't need this at all. "He doesn't need to go back! Once when you are an adult, you cannot change the past or forget it! You are placing a 16 year old in a 9 year old body. That's unfair for him!" I stated with aggression and tightened my hold on her cloak.
"Well, he needs to learn to grow up properly on his own," Nayru countered in an annoyed tone and released herself from my hand. "He can't learn by seven years of sleep. This is the way it has to be sister! Link will go back to being a innocent Kokiri from the forest and Zelda's life will be back to the way it was before he showed up."
I recognized the disdain in her voice when she referred to Link as a useless kid who had no right to disturb the princess. I knew long time ago that when we chose our chosen bearer's of the Triforce, Nayru actually showed a dislike toward Link and sworn to keep him and the princess from each other. Not only that, but she was trying to make sure that the last essence of our youngest sister; Hylia, was not tainted with an interest of the hero.
"You just want Link out of Zelda's life do you!" I shouted from the top of my lungs in a high pitched tone. " I hate to break it to you sister, but Hylia chose to be a mortal to have a life with the hero, a life away from you! Away from being a high, important goddess! You know that she chose not only to keep Demise at bay, but to find the love that she and Link shared with each other. You think that you are protecting her, but you are just making it worse for her descendants! Get a clue, Nayru! Hylia no longer belongs to you, me or Din for the matter! You think that you are right about everything, but you aren't, and your suppose to be a wise goddess who knows everything, well let me tell you something… ME AND DIN WANTED LINK TO BE WITH ZELDA IN THAT FUTURE! HOW IS IT THAT YOU MANAGED TO WIN?"
"Will you two just be quiet!" Din shouted,making both of us jump as her red eyes burned like flames as she spoke. "And while you two are at it get over here and watch! Or continue with your bitter argument" The eldest Goddess turned back to the portal.
Nayru and I went to the portal and sat beside Din. I glared at my sister from the corner of my eye and cursed her for doing this to my chosen one. Nayru did the same but sticks her tongue out in an 'I always win' way. Din saw the commotion we were making and told us to hush as we watched from above.
The portal was showing the Hyrule castle courtyard in its original glory before Ganon decided to destory it.
The young 8-year-old princess Zelda was looking in the window and was unaware that the 9-year-old hero, Link, was coming into the courtyard.
For that moment, I could not hide my smile. 'he is returning to her!'
Nayru on the other hand was shocked to say the least. I suppose she didn't expect that my hero would make an appearance to the princess.
Din, however, just ignored our expressions of either gratitude or horror.
Princess Zelda turned and seen Link standing before her in the courtyard. "Link? Why aren't you back home where you belong?" She asked in concern. Did he not listen to her?
Link answered in an honest voice, "To answer your question Zelda, I don't have a home, not anymore." He folded his hands behind his back and moved his feet along the grass.
Zelda just stared at him. "I half expected for you to return to the forest. Isn't that where you belong?"
Link shook his head, "Not anymore, princess. Now that I know who and what I am, I no longer belong in the Kokiri Forest. I am a hylian, not a kokiri! I have decided to stay with you at the castle, where I am needed in case this country is ever attacked again."
Zelda didn't know what to say. She was honestly dumbstruck by his statement. I stole a glance at Nayru to see that she was exactly doing the same thing as her chosen one.
"Okay." Zelda finally answered. "But first we need to make sure your comfortable here. I will ask Impa to set up a room for you."
As Zelda led Link to the inside of the castle, I shrieked in happiness and jumped up and down in circles, Nayru yelled in annoyance at Zelda for what she had decided.
"Yeah! You go Link!" I cheered with happiness as I finally could see the potential future for the couple.
"Dang it Zelda! This shouldn't have happened!" Nayru shouted as she wagged her finger at the portal and tried to make the girl change her mind. However, her progress came to a halt when Din grabbed her hand and pulled it away from the portal.
"It did happen Nayru, so I suggest you zip it." Din shushed and stripped the magic from her. "Hylia's descendants can make the choices for themselves, I don't think she needs your opinion on this little relationship."
"But Din!" Nayru begged in a sad tone.
"No buts, and I mean it Nayru! Only Hylia can decide whether or not that she still loves the hero..." Din shushed her with a finger to her lips. My older sister later turned to me and tried to calm down my excitement.
After two years of living with the royal family of Hyrule, and successfully stopping Ganon from setting up an invasion, Link had told Zelda that he would be leaving on a journey soon to find his friend Navi.
I knew that he would go on another journey sooner or later. Therefore, I planned on going with him to wherever that place was.
Nayru stopped me after she learned of what I would be doing. "Why do you want to follow him anyway? He can handle this journey himself. He doesn't need your 'courageous pull' to lead him anywhere." She said in her pouty tone. I see that she is still not happy with what Zelda did to allow Link to live with her.
We goddesses have special abilities that help our chosen ones. I use courageous pull in order to help Link go through the dungeons, even when he is too scared to go in there I still manage get him to not worry about it.
Nayru uses wise pull for Zelda to think through her decisions before doing them.
Din stripped her power pull from Ganondorf, and for some odd reason she won't tell Nayru or I why she did it. I had suspected that she did it in order to make sure that Ganondorf didn't cause any more trouble than he already had.
"Farore has a right to help the hero in every way possible Nayru," Din told in a simple manner. "How else is he going to go through with the journey if she is not there to lead the way for him?" I smiled at her and felt gratitude for her statement. She and I mostly have a close connection with each other ever since we were first created.
Nayru stayed silent. Our oldest sister did obviously have a point. She sighed in defeat, "Fine. But be careful in Termina sister."
I was almost preparing to make a teleportation spell to extract myself from the Sacred Realm to the very land me and my sisters made, but I turned around when I heard the word 'Termina'. I let out a grunt, "Of all the places in the world, WHY THERE!"
My sisters were giving me looks of discomfort and seriousness. "Remember what happened the last time we were there?" Din mentioned. "The people over there almost tried to exorcise the whole town, swamp, ocean, canyon, and mountains to make sure that we were not welcome in their land."
"I think that was many centuries ago, Din." Nayru told. "I don't think that the citizens in this generation remember anything about us. Plus to the side fact that neither one of us has been there for a really long time."
I sighed, "Okay, I will be sure to not make any trouble." In a blink of an eye, I disappeared from the Sacred Realm, my home and sanctuary, and floated alongside my chosen one as he rode out of Hyrule on Epona.
I also made sure to stock myself of some magical abilities to protect myself against any attacks that the ancient people of Termina might pull in order to end my eternal presence. I chanted a spell to change my identity from a golden goddess to a ordinary fairy.
Whenever me or my sisters wanted to check on the world, we disguise ourselves in the form of fairies. Din as always is a red fairy with a gold glow, Nayru with the blue, and I with the green. Also thanks to our immortallity, we are invisible to the naked eye as the creations go on about their lives while not realizing that we are watching their every move.
Link entered into the Lost Woods and disappeared from Hyrule.
The fields of Termina were quiet. Too quiet for the matter. The wind softly blows the leaves on the ground as I searched around the area for my enemy. You may know me as none other than the Fierce Deity, or Oni Link for short. I placed my hand on my chin in a thinking position as I calculated the many years that I have waited.
I am usually seen as a fierce warrior with no mercy for the sinful people. With armor that covered my strong and broad chest, hair that is pale as the snow, a sword that spiraled back and forth as it merged to a sharp point at the top, and the most distinguishable part of me that most people fear above all else is my pupil-less white eyes that seem to look straight into your soul.
I had been waiting for the enemy for so long. Longer than any of the generations can count. All I wanted to do for that moment was to see Majora suffer for what he did. My reason is that he tried to destroy every existing being alive.
Whether it is Dekus, Gorons, Zoras, or the average Hylians, Majora wanted to see the world burn in the flames. I mentally thought that my rival's plan was impossible, until Majora started to put his plan into action.
The Ikana Canyon became deserted in the years of drought. The Poes, Redeads, Gibdos and the Stalchildren began to inhabit the wasteland. No one, not even the guards of Clocktown, was brave enough to go there alone. And if you remain there for too long, you become one of them.
The Great Bay Ocean became dangerous for fishermen and the Zoras. The windstorms would not cease for anyone, not even the fearsome Guerdo pirates can get through. Also the aquatic enemies began to inhabit the waters, making it difficult for anyone to get somewhere without getting bitten or electrocuted.
The Snowhead Mountain changed from a spring season to a freezing winter like no other. The Gorons immediately took shelter in their houses to escape the cold temperatures. Majora thought that it would be fun to see them suffer, I thought that it was cold-blooded of him to do that to a well respected race.
The Southern swamp was infested with dark creatures big or small and the fresh water turned into poison that could even kill a ordinary human very slowly. Even the Deku's became afraid to leave their sanctuaries. Moreover, Clocktown itself was going to be plummeted by a horror that nobody would ever think possible for a weapon of destruction; the moon.
Majora once said that the moon was a very acceptable weapon to use instead of the usual hypnotizing of a person and have them either kill themselves or killing another out of his amusement.
When I figured out what was going on, I tried my best to stop Majora from doing any more damage to the land that the Four Giants created. That was before we were imprisoned in the masks by the Four Guardians of Termina, all because of Majora's stupid greed for world destruction. My mask laid lifelessly inside of the moon, waiting to be worn like any regular mask, but I am not any regular mask, mine is more powerful than even Majora could ever hope to imagine. As long as the mask stayed where it was, I can't go outside of Termina. Not until my mask is released from the moon.
'I should have stopped him from the start.' I thought to myself as I ran my fingers through my white hair. I looked up in the sky to see the moon that towered over the poor, defenseless, town. It's face even made my gorge rise. Oh, how I wished for the moon to be destroyed. But I knew that if I did it, I would be destroyed along with it.
I watched as the poor little Skullkid took the evil mask that contained the evil mind of Majora himself. After wearing it for a few minutes, Majora's aura possessed the Skullkid and hypnotized him to do his bidding. With a snap of his fingers, the Skullkid disappeared back into the forest a second later. I stayed on the log to avoid being seen by him, as well as helplessly waiting with anticipation to destroy the mask when the kid wasn't looking.
However, I knew that Majora knew better to give himself up to me. He rather likes it when it is a game of 'cat and mouse', with him being the feline who is chasing a dozen of little mice.
I forced my head to look at the ground beneath me and closed my eyes to retrain myself from my basic instinct to fight.
All I needed was a miracle. I continued to wait in silence, not knowing that deep down inside; I was going to get my wish...
