Link, Hunter of Monsters II: A Whole Other Beast
Disclaimer: I do not any of the hinted or mentioned comics, movies, video games, or anything else; all I did was smash them together, hope you enjoy the mess. Also, the main characters come out to play just after this, in fact, I'll probably post the next one today.
A New Old LegendHost of the interview show: So, Kokiri-Hylian-Hero, I hear word that you have discovered set of ancient manuscripts, the ones regarding the legendary Link and his Shakalaka, the one named Navi? Oh, I'm sorry, she wasn't Shakalaka, that's right, she was a fairy.
Hero: I would say so, yes, I really think that the Shakalakas were a mistranslation for fairy, of a more warlike sort, though I have no direct proof, anyways, I'm not here about that, today I have with me my trusty Navi computer, named after the Great Fairy of Legend, I really hope that you enjoy this, because I was digging and typing for a long time—to me, that is—before I came out with this.
(Reading from the ancient text) There once was a great and powerful monster, but it was destroyed by a hero who is legendary in Moga, the hero's name is not known to us, but there is a hint that the hero was not the first to slay the monster in this land, but the proof of this is limited to strange and realistic dreams, stranger more by the green clad hero who never appeared, but these people describe him in such a way that we—talking about the people who wrote this, or the author and the author's colleagues, or even the entire civilization at this time—believe that he somehow did destroy the monster and left, leaving no trace of himself, physically or chronologically speaking, though he was not able to remove from their minds all traces of his having been there. There is only what they dreamed of to prove that the hero described in these writings is the same hero who fought the Ceadeus.
Most of our scholars believe that he came from an alternate reality and came to mess with their minds just for the fun of it. But then this was discovered and we believe that he must have been there for a deeper reason—destiny, whether or not he made a long lasting physical impact doesn't matter, as the consequences of his undefined stay are visible in the way the people will think, they will tell tales of this day, they will wonder, yes, why he came, but maybe it was so that this would have backing. (Puts scroll down.) This is what it comes down to, now, seeing as how I've thought to tell this story I should answer any questions so far rising, you in the back.
Guy in the Back: Sweet, when can we totally get that story on HD?
Hero: (Stares blankly) Huh, what story?
Host: Oh, no, it's happening again, he did this earlier, the aliens have come, they're possessing Hero! Everyone run around pointlessly and stupidly, and in very predictable circles, so that the hero of the tale will find it impossible to save us because the aliens get us all because that's our script!
Hero (Possessed): Silence! (Crowd goes wild) I called for peace! (Everyone stands still) I will now tell a tale of ages passed, how a hero returned. (Fades to black, from here on the story will be in the first person.)
Author's notes: This story has gotten to the point where it must be split into chapters, and this is just the first—sorry if it's too short, but the second chapter cannot be with this one, it wouldn't suit the mood of the next one.
