A Legend of Zelda Majora's Mask tale
Authors note: Everyone has their own ideas on which Link came first, well mine may be different, we can't expect everyone to be the same now can we? This story will start off with a summary of Link I; try and tell which series he is from. The second chapter and further on will pick up the story. Review, yawn, whatever, just be happy once you get through this part.
CH.1: The trials of Link I
Everyone knows the name of Link, the famous Hylian clad in a green tunic and tights who wielded the sword of legends past. Throughout history there has been one person known to stand up against the vile forces of Ganon…his name was Link. He has been known to fight dragons, cross treacherous waves, and fire an arrow with such ease. But his most notable act of all was saving the fair Princess named Zelda. People who met the hero asked him where he was born, he replied: on a farm, in a forest, or on an island. There isn't just one Link, but many that have been descendants from another Link. The mystical land where it all began was Hyrule.
The very first Link was born in a castle, but when the enemy attacked the young boy was rushed out by its caring mother. The father was a soldier for the king…during that night neither wife nor baby knew of his death. The mother was attacked during her escape and with her last breath she made it to Kokiri forest to entrust her baby's life in the wisdom of the Great Deku tree. Link was bullied by Mido, cared for by Saria, and taught by the Great Deku tree.
On his 10th birthday Link began having nightmares of a rainy night in front of a castle. A young girl fled on a white horse and Link was confused and frightened. The man on the black horse was evil, that much was clear. Link wouldn't answer the demanding questions and that's when he was hit. The Great Deku tree during those previous years was poisoned by Gandorf and then Link (who was fairy less) was summoned to the Great Deku tree by Navi. His journey began that morning and after a long climb and torture he destroyed Queen Gohma and retrieved the spiritual stone.
Bidding farewell to his friend Saria on the bridge he set off for Hyrule castle. Getting in was tricky, but when he slipped past them finally he met the young Princess Zelda. She then sent him to Death Mountain where the other spiritual stone was. There he met Darunia, the leader of the Gorons, and after playing Saria's upbeat song he got permission to use their bombs. Link blew up the entrance to Dodongo Cavern and faced off against King Dodongo. After that battle he received the stone he seeked, and also a warm welcome from the Gorons. The third lay in Zora's falls where after finding a note and seeking a meeting with King Zora, was sent to Jabu Jabu. Link went in and carried Princess Ruto around until she was snatched away. He then fought a creature named Barinade in order to get the final stone and a surprise from the Princess.
His path to saving Hyrule wasn't complete yet; Princess Zelda escaped on horseback with Impa and tossed the Ocarina of Time into the water. After ignoring Gandorf's threat Link got shocked to the ground where after struggling to get up found the Ocarina. Upon entering the Temple of Time Link sets the stones down and picks up the master sword, his mistake was he let Gandorf in. He became trapped in there for 7 years and Gandorf got away with the Triforce of Power.
Link had to right the wrong Gandorf did and to do that he needed to awaken the 7 sages and destroy Gandorf. First there was the light sage, who was Rauru, then the forest sage, who was childhood friend Saria, then the fire sage known as Darunia, then the water sage his betrothed Ruto, the shadow sage was Zelda's protector Impa, and the spirit sage the thief Nabooru. After enduring these trials he made it to the Temple of Time to see Sheik transform before his very eyes into a 7 year older Zelda. Yet their reunion is short lived as Gandorf cuts in and kidnaps her. Link sets out to the castle and after climbing a blood red carpet makes in there to duel with Gandorf. He kills him (supposedly) and he and Zelda make their way down the crumbling stairs. A final battle is fought against Ganon (Gandorf with the Triforce of Power) and Link delivers the final blow while Zelda holds him down with her magic.
The sages use their powers to imprison Gandorf in the Temple of Time where he curse the people responsible for his defeat. Link returns the Ocarina to Zelda and with the master sword resting in the pedestal of time he becomes a 10 year old once again. After visiting Zelda one more time he sets off on his horse Epona in search of his fairy friend Navi.
