Chapter 1: Hero's Awakening
For centuries, the land of Hyrule has enjoyed peace. But that fragile calm is about to be shattered. For an abominable evil sealed away for centuries is about to be awakened by a sinister servant of darkness.
Krakoom! A bolt of lighting flashed across the sky, illuminating everything under it. One of these things was a small cabin, on top of a hill. Inside, a young boy slept restlessly. Then, a voice cut through his mind.
{"Link, help me! I'm being held prisoner in the castle."}
The boy sat up. "That dream, so real..." he mused. Suddenly, it came again.
{"Help me! My name is Zelda."}
"Am I hearing things?" the boy gasped. "Am I under a spell? Am I going crazy?"
{No,} The Voice replied. {I am the King's daughter Zelda. I am Communicating through telepathy}
The boy jumped out of bed, and looked at the bed that was next to him. "Uncle!? Where are you? Where did he go?"
{"Please Link! I believe you are the only one who can the people of Hyrule!"}
"That's strange," The boy mused. "She even knows my name!"
{"Any further delay may prove disastrous! Hurry!"}
"But how will I find you?"
The boy quickly got dressed in an orange shirt, green tunic, and boots. Quickly, he pushed the door open, and ran out into a raging storm. "What a night!" He exclaimed.
{This way.Link!"}
Link kept on running, until he came to a giant castle. {In here!} Zelda's voice urged Link. {"Be wary of the castle guards! Agahnim controls them with his magic!"} Zelda's voice warned him.
"I don't see any." Began Link, but a spear cut him short. "Yikes!" He ducked out of the way just in time to avoid getting cut down by the guards. "Thanks for the warning!" He shouted as he ran down a passageway.
"Which way to go?" As he ran through the halls of the castle, Link heard the sounds of metal striking metal. "What's that?" he asked. As he peered around a corner, he saw two people sword fighting. One was a man dressed in a red cloak with glowing yellow eyes. The other was a man with dark hair and a mustache. "UNCLE!" Gasped Link.
"You make have struck your final blow puny fool!" shouted Agahnim as his sword glowed with an unearthly blue light as he struck a blow across the man's chest.
"AAAGGGHHH!!!" Screamed the man as he fell to the ground.
"Remember this fool. anyone who challenges me shall meet their doom!" bellowed Agahnim. Then, laughing evilly, he turned and strode down the halls. When he was gone, Link slowly made his way over to the man. "Uncle?" he whispered. "Are you.?" The man groaned and pushed himself up by his elbows.
"Link.what are you doing here?" he groaned.
"It was Zelda! She summoned me through telepathy!" Link answered.
"Zelda, eh? So you heard her too? Very well.take my sword and shield. The princess. you must save her."
"Huh?" asked Link.
"After you rescue Zelda and the people in the Dark World."his uncle continued. ".You may meet your parents."
"What?! That's not possible! They're dead!" Link gasped. "Uncle. why? What is happening?" His uncle gave another groaned and laid still. Link felt the tears course down his face. Then Zelda's voice told him:
{"There is no time to grieve now! You must hurry onward!"}
Meanwhile, Aghanim was addressing a crowd of monsters. "It appears that Zelda was able to summon help with her telepathic powers." He said. "If we do not act soon, more fools will rush to help their precious princess! Bring Zelda to me at once! The final enchantment must be cast immediately!"
Meanwhile, Link searched the castle, while Zelda explained everything to him. {Agahnim is planning to use the life force of seven maidens to open the seal of the seven wise men!} She said.
"Seven wise men? Seal? I've never heard of these things." said Link. {Long ago, many people entered the golden land in search of the mighty golden power that was said to hidden there, but no one ever returned.} Explained Zelda. {Then one day, an evil power began flowing from the entrance! So the king chose seven wise men to close the gate to the golden land forever! But now, Agahnim is going to open the gate the golden land by using our life energy!}
"OUR life force? So are you one of the seven maidens? That's terrible!" Exclaimed Link. Suddenly, a voice boomed out,
"WHO GOES THERE?" Then, a huge knight in black armor appeared in front of him.
"I came to save princess Zelda!" said Link boldly.
"Foolish welp!" boomed the knight. "It is YOU who needs saving!" and with that, he slashed at Link, who blocked the blow with his shield. "You and the princess will be together soon enough!" he growled, swinging the sword at Link, who quickly ducked to avoid it. As the knight lunged towards him, Link jumped out of the way and got behind the knight, and inserted the sword in the knight's armor. "Now." he said, ".Lead me to the dungeon, WHAT?" Suddenly, beams of light began shooting out of the armor, and it crumbled into a pile.
{"Link!} Exclaimed Zelda. {Concentrate! I will guide you! Trust your feelings, and you will find me!"}
"It's working!" exclaimed Link. I'm coming Zelda, hold on!" Link traveled through the castle, not seeing anyone. Then suddenly, there was a scream.
{"AAAIIIEEEE!!! Link, hurry, they're taking me away!"} Zelda's voice was urgent. Peering around a corner, Link saw two armored guards escorting a beautiful young girl with long blond hair and blue eyes wearing a blue dress. (A.N: Three guesses who that is! -_~) Link confronted the guards, knocking them down.
"Princess Zelda!" he exclaimed.
"Link!" The girl shouted.
"This way!" shouted Link, grabbing her hand a pulling her down the corridor.
"HALT!" Shouted a guard, but they found that there was no one there.
"We must escape and make our way to the sanctuary! The old man there will help us!" Said the princess.
* If we escape that is! * Link thought.
The passage way soon came to an end. "There's no way out! It's a dead end!" Exclaimed Link. He turned to see a lantern flicker on all by itself. When Zelda picked it up, A secret door in the wall opened. * Maybe a little optimism isn't such a bad idea! * He thought. As they walked through the rat-infested tunnels, Link asked, "If you knew about this secret passage, then why didn't you tell me sooner?"
"I didn't know!" replied Zelda. "This castle was built long ago! No one remembers all of its secrets!" Later at the sanctuary.
"I see! Your telepathy is no use against Agahnim!" Link and Zelda were sitting at the table wearing towels and drinking hot soup.
"I overheard him talking about using my life force to finally open the seal of the seven wise men!" Said Zelda.
"Yes, and were he successful, the master of evil would marshal his forces against this world again!" Exclaimed the old man.
"All I know is that monster Agahnim killed my uncle!" Interrupted Link. "I've got to bring him to justice somehow!"
"Link," said Zelda softly," I feel that you are.you MUST be.the legendary hero who appears in Hyrule every hundred years.You are the sole protector of this land! I feel for sure that you can foil Agahnim's plot!" (A.N: You just HAVE to see Link's expression when she says that! It is SO funny!!!)
"Link? If you are going to battle the wizard Agahnim, do not under estimate him!" Said the old man. "I sense a powerful evil force is guiding his actions." Suddenly, the room began to shake. One of the walls fell to the ground. "What!? He is coming! I sense his evil presence!"
"Agahnim!" Shouted Link, as the evil wizard entered the room.
"Princess Zelda, come back to the castle quietly even if you run to the ends of Hyrule, you will not escape me!" He shouted
"I'll never let you take her!" Shouted Link jumping in front of her. Agahnim started to laugh loudly and cruelly.
"Not so long ago, another foolish warrior lost his life spouting similar nonsense!" Well, that was the last straw for Link.
"Why you-! That was my uncle!" shouted Link charging at Agahnim Lighting surrounded Agahnim, as he blasted Link.
"You are as weak as you are impetuous!" He scoffed. As light jumped from his fingers, he announced: "I will make you feel fear like you have never known!" The bolts of lighting threw Link to the ground and shattered his sword. Then, cackling evilly, the evil wizard grabbed Princess Zelda.
"Princess!" shouted the old man.
"Zelda!" exclaimed Link.
{It's no use fighting Agahnim with an ordinary sword!} Zelda told him telepathically. {You need the legendary Master Sword of the past!} As Agahnim carried her away, Zelda called out: {don't worry about me! Find the master sword! Link-it's up to you alone!}
"ZELDA!" Shouted Link, RUNNING OUT INTO THE STORM. "There's just one thing, the master sword! WHERE IS IT!"
Well, that's it. What do you think? Please R & R!
