AN: Hey! It's me slickboy444. This is my first attempt at an X-men Evolution fic so bear with me. I have become a big fan of the show and the short-lived comic book recently. This story is kind of like the Justice League crossover that I wrote called "A New Friend, A New Member." It has elements of a Zelda crossover. This is my first attempt so I would enjoy some feedback. Send reviews to slickboy444@aol.com. I am open to all criticism. I don't own X-men or Zelda so please don't sue me. I have nothing. I hope you enjoy this story!

All my x-men evolution fics are dedicated to Jen (aka: littlesortaredheadedgirl) the author of the x-men evolution fic "Snow." I highly recommend you all read it. Because of that fic I intend to add Scott/Jean material later on in this series.

AN: 'These mean character thoughts.'

Prof. Xavier: Logan, come check this out.

Logan: What's up Chuck?

Prof. Xavier: Cerebro just picked up a new mutant reading a minute ago, but it doesn't look like anything I've ever seen.

Logan began to watch the monitor. It was flashing strange readings and numbers around the screen in an enigmatic manner.

Logan: Looks like complete gibberish to me.

Prof. Xavier: That's what Hank said and if he can't identify it, I don't know who can.

Logan: Think we better check it out?

Prof. Xavier: No, we must learn more about this before doing anything to rash.

Logan let out a grunt of frustration. He knew if they didn't take advantage of this new development, someone else will.

Todd: Come on man, let's go!

Fred: I'm coming swamp breath! Just have a little patience.

Fred, Lance, Pietro, and Todd (otherwise known as blob, avalanche, quicksilver, and Toad) were off on a little assignment from Mystique. They were going to steal some ultra-rare chemicals from a military base in central New York. These were chemicals that could give them a dangerous edge on the X-men. The brotherhood of mutants drove off to meet their mentor outside the gates of the base. Little did they know, there was someone else moving toward their direction. In what seemed the middle of nowhere a truck stopped along the side of the road.

Driver: You sure I can let you out here kid?

Stranger: Yes, don't worry, my home is not to far from here.

Driver: You sure cause I can drive you closer.

Stranger: That's all right, I know you must stay on route.

Driver: Well, if you insist.

The driver then sped off as the stranger waved goodbye. His name was Jack Robinson. On the outside he looked like a normal guy. He was tall, well built, and had short blond hair. He carried with him a backpack containing a guitar and a medium size traveling bag. He waited until the truck was well over the horizon.

Jack: Well, I better get going.

Suddenly, three mysterious triangles appeared on his right hand and began to glow brightly. In a quick flash, he ran off along the road at dizzying speeds. His only vehicle was his own two legs. Not far from Jack was Mystique at the entrance to the military base.

Mystique: It's time to begin.

She then morphed in to a guard and began to infiltrate the base for her coming comrades.

Back at the institute Professor Xavier was still trying to decipher the strange reading from Cerebro.

Scott: Still at it I see.

Prof. Xavier: Oh, Scott you scared me.

Scott: Sorry, Logan sent me down here to tell you dinner is ready.

Prof. Xavier: I'll be up soon, I just need a little while longer with this.

Scott: Professor, you've been at it for four hours. I...

Suddenly an alarm went off.

Scott: What's that?

Prof. Xavier: Cerebro has picked something else up.

Scott: Is it the same reading as before?

Prof. Xavier: No, it's something different. Oh no.

Scott: I hate it when you say that.

Prof. Xavier: Mystique and the brotherhood. They're attacking some military base in central New York.

Scott: What for?

Prof. Xavier: I don't know, but it can't be friendly.

Scott: I'll get the others and check it out!

Prof. Xavier: Wait, Scott!

But it was too late, Scott summoned the available members that included Jean, Kurt, Kitty, Logan, and Rogue and they boarded the jet.

Kurt: I don't get it. Vhy vould the brotherhood come back out of nowhere?

Logan: I don't know, but they're after for something for Magneto and that can't be good. Question is, what are they after?

Mystique: Quickly, get to the labs!

Toad: Don't worry, we got your back girl! Blob, clear the way!

Blob: Gladly.

The blob let out a big roar and like a bulldozer, he mowed down columns of guards. They tried in vain to fire, but their guns were seized or stolen by the sticky tongue of Toad or the speed of Quicksilver. Soon, dozens of guards lay on the ground dazed and unconscious and battle vehicles lay in a smoking wreck. Then they moved up to meet Mystique at the front of a huge armored building. The Blob tried to break it down, but the walls and doors seemed to be heavily reinforced. Then suddenly, the heavy metal doors were bent and flung away by an unseen force. The brotherhood looked up and saw the source of the force.

Magneto: Ah, my pupils. It is good to see you again.

Toad: Likewise man, but where on Earth have you been?

Avalanche: Yeah, we've been rotting ever since you disappeared.

Magneto: I apologize for my absence. It was necessary in order to plan our next big step towards mutant evolution.

Quicksilver: Whatever man. Let's just get this over with, it was too easy.

Magneto: Don't get to cocky Quicksilver, I plan on having some guests coming soon.

Mystique: You mean the Xaiver kids right?

Magneto: Yes, but now we must hurry and get those chemicals out before they get here.

With that they began to make their way in to the lab. Just as they were well on their way towards the chemicals the X-men arrived in the blackbird.

Logan: Keep your eyes open kids. We don't know what they're planning.

Rogue turned to Kurt.

Rogue: Man when is he going to stop calling us kids?

However, Logan heard that.

Logan: When you stop acting like em! Now keep quiet!

Logan was clearly a bit angry. He had dealt with Magneto more times than the rest of the students and he knew he was no laughing matter. The rest of the team followed Logan as he sniffed out the trail of the brotherhood.

Logan: They're close...Over there!

They moved towards a central building with a broken down door. They quickly began to make their way in. As they followed the path of destruction and unconscious guards it became clear that the brotherhood was definitely after something big.

Jean: 'I don't like this Scott. I think we may be too late.'

Jean was using her psychic abilities to talk to Scott without worrying about the prying ears of Logan.

Scott: 'Me neither, but we've still got to check it out. They have to be after something...Something important.'

Jean: 'I don't think we want to know what.'

Soon the group stopped in large room surrounded by computer screens and lab equipment. Logan continued to sniff the air, searching for the scent of the brotherhood.

Kitty: Why did you stop?

Logan: The trail stops here for some reason.

Avalanche: And for good reason, Wolverine.

Suddenly the floor began to shake violently. Then blob, Toad, and Quicksilver joined them. Floating above them, Magneto confronted his enemies.

Magneto: It's good to see you all again. I had a feeling you would all show up.

Logan: Magneto!

Logan let his claws come out as he prepared himself for battle.

Magneto: Too bad I don't have time for this. Brotherhood, attack them!

Meanwhile, Jack Robinson was zooming along the long stretch of road when he saw large columns of smoke coming from the military base in the distance.

Jack: Man, that doesn't look very friendly.

His curiosity got the best of him and he turned towards the base. His super-fast speed from his mysterious power that emulated from the symbols on his hand. In no time at all he was on the ravaged base. He looked around to see the damage that had been done.

Jack: Wow, who could have done this?

Then something caught his eye. He saw a large building in the center with a door seemingly torn out. He hurried in to the building, hoping he wasn't too late. As he followed the path of destruction he saw a light in a wide corridor to his left. He ran over and took a quick look. He saw a mysterious "lady" with blue, scaly skin and an odd outfit loading drums with a biohazard sign on it in to a large military truck. Jack gasped at the situation.

Jack: 'Oh, man...They must be terrorists or thieves. Or...Mutants?

Jack closed his eyes and the three triangles on his had began to glow.

Jack: 'What do I do? What do I...'

Suddenly, the light from his hands got brighter. Soon he was engulfed by it. He felt a strange feeling. Then the light subsided. He opened his eyes and then looked at himself. He looked different. He was now wearing a green tunic with gray tights and a strange cap on his head. He had two golden gauntlets on and on his back were a glowing sword and a brilliant shield.

Jack: Oh, now I get it.

Jack let out a smile. This transformation had happened to him before, but he never quite knew what it meant. Now he did.

Mystique was loading the last few drums of chemicals on to the truck.

Mystique: Well, that's the last of them. Time to get out of here.

Jack: Excuse me miss, but I don't think these belong to you.

Mystique: What? Who dares?

She quickly turned around and out of the shadows walked a mysterious warrior. She seemed shocked at the appearance of this new arrival. She had never seen him before.

Mystique: Who are you?

Jack: Call me...Link.

A small smirk grew across his face. In a flash he raced forward and delivered a heavy kick to the bewildered mutants.

In the other room the X-men fought bitterly with the brotherhood. The melee came to no avail for the X-men as Magneto used his powers to supplement the efforts of the brotherhood. The X-men tried in vain to stop them, but combined with Magneto's powers they couldn't defeat them by themselves.

Magneto: Pathetic.

Magneto flung Logan against the wall and watched him get up slowly from the blow, but his rage was still apparent. Suddenly, Mystique came flying through a closed doorway and slammed in to Magneto.

Magneto was dazed, but then he became enraged.

Magneto: What happened?! You were suppose to get those chemicals out of here!

Voice: She had a few problems.

Magneto, the brotherhood, and the rest of the X-men stood and gazed at the mysterious stranger. Rouge's gaze was particularly strong.

Rogue: 'Wow, who is that?'

Jack/Link: The name is Link.

Magneto: Link, huh? Well Link, you seem to be making a mistake. I can tell you're different. Different like me and the rest of my associates.

Link: Don't even try it. I know about those chemicals you were stealing. I know what they do and why you want them. You're like a Saturday morning cartoon villain come to life. And rest assured, I won't let you fulfil your objective.

Magneto: Have it your way then. Blob, crush this guy's spine in to dust!

Blob responded with a sinister grin.

Blob: With pleasure.

The Blob bellowed out a roar as he rushed toward the lone warrior.

Rogue: What er ya waitin for?! Get out of the way!

The stranger was not worried. Soon, the Blob lunged forth at him. However, to everybody's surprise, the stranger known as Link countered the lunge and stopped the unstoppable blob cold in his tracks. The blob was shocked that this seemingly insignificant stranger had the same strength as he did. He began to push harder, but Link just pushed back.

Scott: I don't believe it...He's actually pushing him back.

Rogue: Talk about yer deceptive appearances.

The Blob began to sweat heavily as he got more nervous.

Blob: It's...Impossible.

Link: No, it is not. Your life force is just far weaker.

Then, like lightning, Link delivered a swift, powerful punch and knocked the massive Blob across the room and in to the wall.

Toad: No way man!

Magneto: Get him.

The rest of the Brotherhood charged him, but Link had fighting skills unlike anything they or the X-men had ever seen. He had speed, strength, and raw muscle. Toad, Avalanche, Quicksilver, and Mystique fell at the power of his ninja like skills and super-human strength. As the last enemy fell, Link turned his sights to Magneto.

Magneto: I'm impressed, Link. You are far more powerful than I imagined.

Magneto then floated closer to Link, he drew a long, shining sword from a case in his back.

Magneto: But you are not fighting the good fight as you say it. You fight us, yet we are fighting for people like you. This mission is a step towards helping people like you and me. Your crusade is not justified. You are on the wrong side.

Link was undaunted by this speech. He knew his cause and he knew whom he was dealing with.

Link: You say I'm on the wrong side, huh? I beg to differ. You use your power for brute strength, yet my power has that and something more. I can sense your intentions and your dark life energy. You are a man who has been corrupted by dark life energy. What's worse is you have corrupted the minds of the souls I have just fought. I have the power to defeat dark ones like you.

Magneto was still unwavering. He still didn't feel threatened.

Magneto: You speak boldly, but your power is still nothing compared to mine. You alone can not beat me.

However, that was not true. In all the commotion over Link, Magneto seemed to forget about the X-men.

Cyclops: You're forgetting one thing bucket-head. We can still fight.

Then, Magneto began to show signs of concern. Before he could react he was hit with a laser blast from Cyclops and psychic blast from Jean. Wolverine joined in with a flying drop kick to knock Magneto out of his levitated state. Kitty and Rogue delivered another painful blow to top it off. Magneto tried to get up, but then he ran back in to Link.

Link: It's over.

Link's right hand began to glow as the mysterious symbols lit up and blasted a bright ball of light at Magneto.

Logan: It's over Magneto.

Magneto: I think not.

He gathered up his strength and let out a huge magnetic blast, knocking the X-men and Link back.

Then, he levitated his comrades and blasted through the roof and away from the lab, empty handed.

Magneto: We will meet again...Link.

After they left Link got up first and helped up the mysterious people he had helped. The last one he helped up was a mysterious girl with pale skin. As he helped her up their eyes met. Both Rogue and Link stared in to each other's eyes for a prolonged period of time in a mysterious manner. Soon, however, the rest of the group cut in.

Scott: So...Link huh? Well we really owe you back there...Thanks.

Scott let out his hand in a friendly gesture. Link stood cautiously for a brief moment, but some voice in his head pushed him on. He graciously shook his hand and a peaceful manner.

Link: Your very welcome.

Kitty: So, like, who are you...Link?

Link: Well I am called Link, but...

In a swift flash he was turned back in to Jack Robinson. He was back in the same cloths as before, just a normal looking guy once again.

Link/Jack: My name is Jack. Jack Robinson. As you all might have guessed, I'm not a normal guy. I am a mutant.

AN: Well, that's it for the first chapter. Thanks a lot for reading, please submit as much reviews as possible. I'm begging to know what you all think. Email me at slickboy444@aol.com. By the way this isn't the end. I have another chapter in the works. I will try to get it up as soon as I can. Just to let you know, in later chapters I will be adding Rogue/Jack pairings and I will also put a little Scott/Jean romance in it as well. I hope you all enjoyed my story thus far.
