Out The Blue, a Legend of Zelda Fanfic. I dont own the Legend of Zelda, if I did, Windwaker would have ended veery differently.
Based on a true story.
Prolouge: Hero of Winds It took two quests, a year, a lot of sword fighting, and a certain pirate captain to change his life. After saving the whole Great Sea from Ganon, saving his crush(dont tell anyone) from a Ghost Ship, and a lot of mindless sailing, he needed a break. He decided to go home. He was tired of the mindless sailing and finding nothing. He kept the gossip stone to keep in contact. It wasnt a violent seperation, but she had a duty. He was the hero, he did what he was destined to do, and then saved her again because he wanted to. Like the great Hero of Time before him, he wanted to distance himself from the people that had made him a legend. He didnt want the royal treatment(not that the pirates had given him any), he didnt want to stick out in a crowd. In all honesty, he wanted a normal life.

He would like the ocassional quest, but he was tired of do or die save the world mystic adventures. He wanted to settle down. He may have been 14, but he felt older. He wanted to live a quiet life. So he went back to Outset. He still sails to Windfal every now and again, but he had quit the save the damsel buisness(not that any damsel needed saving anymore). He will still answer the call of duty, but it hasnt happend. He keeps in shape, fighting Orca and even Jabu on the ocassional need.
His sister is now 13, and even has a little crush on Joel. He is happy, his prime duty in life is currently taking care of grandma, who has recently gotten engaged to Sturgon. For a while, life was good, everyone was happy.

Everyone was happy. Except...Him. He thought this was what he wanted, and for a while he was happy. Then he missed Tetra, who had only called very occasionaly. Then he missed her more. And more. It turns out that the Hero of Winds needed his Pirate Princess to really be happy.

It had been almost a year, now he was 15. He missed her terribly. She hadnt called, not since the begining of the year. He was fed up. He needed to talk to her. Now. Aryl, now 14, was getting serious with Joel. Grandma was married(eeeeeew old love). They were living together above Orca, who was getting sick lately. Link lived with Aryl, not old enough to officially move out of the house, but spent most of her time with Joel. Link was, in retrospec, alone in his life.
People still talk to him, hell they love him. He was popular around the great sea(minus the Forsaken Fortress, wich he plans to rebuild as a habitable pirate port for Tetra one day). He had what was seen as a great life, with much honor,glory, and happiness. In reality, he was sad, depressed, alone. He always thought she was annoying, insulting, uncaring. But after all they had been through, he misses her. He wonders if she misses him, or even remembers him. She probably moved on...to another treasure. That depressed him more.

Lately he had been coming out of the house less and less. Not that anyone would notice. Orca was prracticly bed-ridden, unable to train. Grandma was to busy being all mushy with sturgon, that just grossed him out. Aryil was practicly living with Joel. Even though he was happy for her, his little sister wasnt his buddy anymore. She had changed, grown up. He was alone. He was going insane, and only one person in the Great Sea could help him. He didnt even know where she was anymore, she hadnt called in months. He decided to go get help, he needed wisdom. So he went to the Queen of Fairies.

After warping to Mother and Child Isles. He stood in silence. "Its been a long time hero, hasnt it?" a voice said. "Please help me Great Fairie Queen, Im in desperate need of wisdom" said Link under his voice. As soon as he said that, a blue female appeared before him. She had the look of a small child, the sound of a small child, yet she could float. Giggling, she says "What kind of trouble are you in now little boy? Girl problems i presume?" Link blushed at this "Howd she know..." he thought. "I can see it in your eyes..." she says chuckling. "I know of your problem already, young one" she says before he can speak. "You are afraid of contacting her, because you are afraid of what you might find out" she says. "I..." Link started. "If you really miss her, then you need to call her, otherwise its a lost cause" she says. "with that, i bid you ado". The instant she says that, she dissapears, leaving him very much annoyed.

After sailing back to Outset, the long way(to give him time to think), he was tried and annoyed. "I cant go on like this" he thought. He needed her now. IT had been too long. He slept on it, and the next morning he was ready. He went up to the forest, where they had first me. It still looked the same, minus the monsters and the big boulder. He sat on the log, pulled out the stone and called.
..."Hello?"...
