Prologue

"Link..." Midna said, stepping towards the Mirror, "I... See you later..." She stepped through the portal, returning her to her own world, before her tear crashed into it, shattering the Mirror.

Link and Zelda just stood there, shocked. Link was the first to react, dropping to his knees and holding his head in his hands. Zelda looked at Link, who was now reduced to tears, screaming, "WHY? WHY DID SHE HAVE TO GO!" He continued, screaming and crying as Zelda walked up to him, putting a comforting arm around his shoulders.

"Zelda... Why... Why did she have... have to go?" Link managed to say, tears still streaming down his face. Zelda pulled him into a hug before loosening the hug.

"Come on Link, lets get you home." She whispered, trying to hold back her own tears.

Link woke up startled. He wondered if it was just a dream but Midna didn't come up from his shadow. He started to cry again, missing the only woman he had truly loved. He rolled over, trying to get back to sleep, except nothing will stop the images of Midna flowing through his head. Tears flowed freely from his eyes, dampening his pillow in a salty liquid. The images of Midna finally went from his head as he managed to fall asleep. Different images went through his mind as he slept, some of them he felt a strange sense of deja vu when they appeared but others just seemed like a random image. An image of A Kidnapped Princess, 8 Shards, A Darkened World, A Mysterious Egg, A Bane of All Evil, An Evil Mask, Two Oracles, Multiple Heroes, A Legendary Baton, A Strange Hat, and finally, the Princess of Another Kingdom.

The last image he realised was Midna, which made him wake up abruptly in a cold sweat. He saw that sunlight was filtering through the window, illuminating the floor and his clothes. He quickly got out of bed and put on his clothes, which held a distinctive smell of a beautiful princess. Link blushed when he realised that it was Midna who's scent he could smell before he went to his door. He sighed as he remembered the various adventures they went on before he left for the Ordon Ranch, where he worked.

He finally got home from a stressful day of work, he couldn't seem to concentrate properly as a certain someone kept getting stuck in his mind. He tried dismissing the images of her but they kept coming back, and he was sent home early because he couldn't work properly.

Link decided to eat, something that he tried to do when was necessary but was constantly put of by images off his beloved Princess. He suddenly got a crazy idea. What if he could reactivate the Mirror and teleport to the Twilight Realm. He ran outside and climbed up on Epona. He gently patted her side and she set off on a slow trot. Link slapped her side lightly and she started to gallop. Another slap from Link and she was at full speed, Link guiding her with her reigns.

After what seemed like an eternity Link reached the Arbiters Grounds, where the Mirror was. He slowly made his way through to the Mirror Chamber, avoiding some of the traps that he had successfully dodges the last time he was here. He walked up to the Mirror and ran his right hand over it. Suddenly, a triangular symbol appeared on his hand. The symbol let out a blinding flash of light before dispersing. Link rubbed his eyes to re-focus his eyes. He noticed that the Mirror was fixed and tapped it with his Master Sword. There was a flash of white light and Link felt himself being pulled forwards. The mysterious light pulled him into the Mirror and as he went through it, the Mirror shattered once more, trapping Link inside it.
