Disclaimer: I don't own The Zelda Series, Ninteno, nada. I just write the fics.

Author's Note: I decided to make a Zelda fanfiction. Just because I haven't read any, and the simple fact that I'm in love with the series. This might be more serious than my other fics, but i've put my absolute heart into this story, and I hope you guys enjoy this.

Title: On The Road Again

Rating: Teen. Most likely for violence and language. I doubt there will be sexual themes, but I'm not too sure since I just started this.

My whole life has been nothing but running around the world day and night, hopefully saving it. I'm probably never going to be forgotten, my name will be told for centuries. The savor of Hyrule isn't something you can forget about. But now that I'm 21 years old, I feel like it's time to do something else for a change. I mean, why am I always requesting Zelda? And why is Ganon always involved? I understand the whole Triforce thing. It's whatever. I even have a piece on my left hand. I don't know. Maybe I want more excitement in my life... the excitement of love...

"Link!"

". . . . . LINK!"

"WHAT?" I yelled, practically jumping off my bed from being rudely woken.

Ilia just smiled at my annoyance.

"You need to get up," She demands. "Don't you know what day it is?"

I was puzzled for a moment.

"Nothing ever happens on Sundays," I whined. "I never get a break!"

Ilia just laughed "It's the night of the two moons, silly!"

My eyes widened. How could I forget about such an important thing in Hyrule history? Then again, it only happens every 50 years.

"Can you believe it?" She jumped up and down with excitement. "We finally get to witness the famous two moon eclipse! I've been waiting for this moment since I was just a little girl!"

It was true. Ilia has been reaming about this day for years. Now 18, being a young woman and witnessing the two moon eclipse is supposed to bring good luck.

I smiled sheepishly. "Well then, I guess we have a lot to do before sun down. And here I thought I only had to herd the cattle today..."

She pushed me softly, giving me 'the look'. "Quit complaining and stop being lazy!" She stammered at me. "Get dressed! I'll meet you by the Faron Spring!"

I sighed, a she left from my bedroom.
With another heavy sigh, I forced myself up and tried to begin the day with happy thoughts. (Which include imagining myself lazing around all day. Something I haven't done since I was a boy.)

I had to admit, it's a beautiful day outside. Maybe it's a good thing I didn't sleep the day away. I stood out and felt the sun warming my face instantly. Ordon Village is truly an amazing place. I've been to so many, and nothing is as great as home.

Enough fantasizing, I head for the Faron Spring.

I smile, as a see Ilia and Epona together.

"You love spoiling her, don't you?" I say with a chuckle.

Ilia rolled her eyes. "I'm taking care of her, something you don't do!"

I was puzzled. "I do take care of her! What are you talking about?"

Ilia continued to groom Epona. "You feed her, give her water, and exercise her. You tend to forget that she also needs attention. Like bathing her."

I smiled sheepishly. "I forget that she's a girl sometimes."

Ilia rolled her eyes again. "Start remembering then."

I frowned, and sat down on the grass. "Do I really anger you that much, Ilia?"

Ilia didn't looking at me. "It's not that..."

One of my eyebrows rose in confusion. "Then what is it?"

She stopped brushing Epona, and looked down. "I just... worry about you. You know? I feel like if I'm strict on you, you won't go away again..."

I smiled, got up and walked towards her. Ilia looked up at me with tears in her eyes. I wrapped my arms around her, squeezing her gently. "I'm never going to leave you again Ila, I swear to that."

She sighed, with a tear rolling down her cheek. "How are you sure of that? Hyrule isn't going to be peaceful forever..."

"Well, then I guess they'll have to pick someone else to be the hero!" I smiled. "Cheer up Ilia... I don't like it when you frown. You are much prettier with a smile on your face."

She looked up at me and smiled. "You always say the right things to cheer me up."

I grinned. "You'll always have me to do that, I promise."

She also grinned. "Pinky swear?"

I laughed, wrapping my pinky around hers. "Pinky swear."

We both headed back with Epona to the Village.

"Well if it isn't the hero of Hyrule!" A voice exclaimed.

Ilia and I looked up in confusion, until we recognize that it's Rusl.

I smiled sheepishly and scratched the back of my head. "Ha... That's what I'm known as now."

Rusl smiled. "Hope things aren't too boring around here now that you've ventured out of the village."

I shook my head. "Home is where the heart is Rusl. It's good to be back for good."

"For good?" He asked me. "I wouldn't say that just yet."

Ilia and I both looked at each other, then I look back at Rusl. "Why do you say this?"

Rusl sat his bag down on the ground, and stretched. "Well, I was hoping you'd run an errand for me to the castle. Now that I'm getting older it's hard traveling."

Ilia looked down. She seemed worried, but I don't see running and errand for Rusl to be a big deal.

I smiled. "Of course, it's the least I can do!"

Rusl smiled. "That's exactly what I wanted to here. Come by my house when you get to the village, I'll give you the package then." after that, he left.

I looked at Ilia. "Don't worry," I reassured her as I took her hand and squeezed it. "I'll only be gone for a couple of hours, if that. Epona will be eager to get back home."

Ilia smiled at me sheepishly. "She does love herding the cattle..."

I laughed. "She loves chasing things."

Once we get back to the village, I take Ilia to her house, then I head for Rusl's.

I'm greeted by Uli as I make my way to the front door. "Hey there Link." She smiled.

I smiled back. "Hi Mrs. Uli. How's the baby?" I asked her.

She felt her stomach. "Not too long til he's ready to come out."

She gave me a pat on the back, and I made my way into the house with her.

"We have a visitor!" She said to Rusl.

Colin came running towards me. "Link!" He said with joy.

I smiled. "Hey Colin."

"You're going to town for Dad?" He asked me.

"I sure am."

"Please come back this time!"

I chuckled. "I will, I can assure you of that!"

Rusl laughed. "Link can take care of himself, son. He is a great swordsman. He has learned a lot on the road."

I sat down at the table with Rusl, as he put the package in front of me.

"This is a very special package." He told me. "It needs to be delivered to the princess herself."

Wow. It's been a long time since I've seen her.

"Is it that important?" I asked him.

He nodded. "Give the guards this letter. It's from the princess, explaining that you may enter the castle."

I nodded. "I understand. Don't worry, this package will be safe with me."

He smiled. "Which is why I chose you to do it, Link."

I smiled also, taking the letter and the package. "Well, I guess I'll be off. I've got to get back in time to herd the cattle."

"And for the Two Moon Eclipse!" Uli said.

I smiled sheepishly. "That too, but I figured since I was going to be in town, I'd stay."

"No!" Colin exclaimed. "Ilia wants you to go with her!"

I chuckled. "Well, then I guess I better leave right this second so I'll be back in time!"

"Good luck Link," Rusl said to me. "Be careful. Even though the evil that haunted Hyrule is gone, there are still dangerous things out there. But you know that better than myself."

I nodded. "Yes sir."

I didn't think I would be going back to Hyrule Castle so soon. To be in there again will bring back memories... some good and bad. Some I miss very much.

Walking outside I saw Ilia had already prepared Epona for me.

"Sad to see me leave?" I said.

Ilia smiled at me. "Just be careful, okay?" She gave me the reins.

I smirked. "Always."

With that, I headed off.
