Heroine of the wild

Standard Disclaimer. No I do not own The Legend of Zelda that would be Nintendo and Shigeru Miyamoto and Takashi Tezuka. If I did Zelda would be playable in the Second Quest.

Chapter 1 I am Zelda

Water and the feeling of weightlessness floating in the void. The sound of water draining through channels. And there are lights, blue in colour, and then suddenly in a single moment the other 4 senses turn on full blast. My eyes shoot open and a breath of cool air fills my lungs. I heave myself out of the pod, into a small room made out of some kind of rock. Looking around there's not much here, except the pod, and a pedestal under a stalactite in the corner. I walk over to it and poke the centre of the glowing eye symbol. Suddenly the stalactite illuminates with strings of code, forming a water droplet that falls and hits the eye. "SHEIKAH SLATE ACTIVATED" appears where the eye was and then a rectangle rotates and flips up. A voice in my head says "This is the sheikah slate use it to unlock the door, you will be the light, our light that will cut through the darkness. This was supposed to be me but excuse me princess." Wait everything's depending on me; this is not good for my anxiety or low self-confidence. I do not remember much, but this feeling is not a memory.

Part of the wall opens up revealing another room, except this looks more like a storeroom. There are two chests that I open; one has an old shirt, the other worn trousers. I immediately put this on, as all I am wearing was a bra and knickers. Although I don't mind running around in my under things, since there's nobody around. I do feel slightly warmer and awake, dressed in actual clothes. Outside is the greatest view I have ever seen, rolling green hills fading into mountains as far as I can see. Looking to my right ruins of a massive long abandoned building, to my left nothing but woods and wilderness. I decide to check out the ruins and a small campsite I can faintly notice. Walking down the path to the site, I notice an old chap sitting. He looks at me "Ahoy hoy, I didn't think there was anybody up here, where did you come from miss?"

"Um..." How do I say anything without sounding like a nutter, think Zelda. Ahoy hoy, why not just say hello, like a normal person. ((AN: Zelda speaks in a British Accent in the cut scenes, so she uses British English. Ahoy hoy was Alexander Bell's preferred telephone greeting,))

"Never mind it's dangerous to go alone, take this torch for lighting and this woodcutters axe for combat. Be careful with he torch as there is dry grass everywhere."

Wait, what do you mean by dangerous and combat, where the bloody hell are we? And I am not an idiot, or fire maniac, thank you very much." Well no that I'd ever admit that, shh…

"We are currently on the Great Plateau, centre of the ancient and destroyed kingdom of Hyrule, with monsters running rampant over it." He calmly explained as if that answered all my questions or concerns. Great I only know basic combat, not sure how I know this but still the chances I could die are way too high.

Ok time to go exploring, as a yellow dot appeared on my slate. I walk towards the ruins, the axe is very unwieldy, so I need to find a better weapon suited to me like a sword, a bow would also be useful I guess. I walk down until I get to an overhang above a lake. Looking down at the crystal blue water I notice a ring of lily pads. Something tells me there is something else going on here. Also there is an island in the lake with something on it so I might also well take a dip. I dive into the lake through the ring, the water temperature is not great but not freezing; a leaf pops up spinning another leaf like a propeller.

"Wow you can see me, but you're not Hetsu. If you see him here take this Korok seed back to him. By the way my friends are hiding in lots of places. You must poke around interesting places to find all 900 of us." Ok that was not strange or anything, also that number is really high. I wonder what a korok seed is or what it's used for. I guess this Hetsu fellow knows. Any who on to the island, with the sword in the stone. And its not just any sword, its a rusted broadsword. It may be a century old, but it still will get the job done. Hopefully. I'm doomed aren't I?

A voice tells me to look at my shiekah slate, which now has a glowing yellow dot on it. A map function or something, looks useful. Well I guess x marks the spot, so tally ho! Soon I arrive at a destroyed fountain square, where I meet my first monster, a bokobin. It looks like a red humanoid pig; my broadsword takes it out in two hits. Adrenaline is great for combat. It explodes into a cloud, leaving behind a horn. Continuing on I see another bokobin this one is carrying a shiny metal sword and wooden shield. Looks dangerous, so I crouch down and slowly circle around behind it. It never saw me coming, I collect a traveler's sword and a boko shield. Hooray for me, I'm doing pretty well. Turning around I walk over to the spot on my map, it appears to be some kind of shrine, and looking exactly like the room I woke up in. Same kind of unknown pedestal and design that glows bright orange.

Ok hopefully this works and is readable. Apparently when I originally uploaded this, the doc manager messed up. Hooray for computer problems! I seem to have a lot of those lately for some reason. Breath of the wild might be my all time favorite Zelda game; the concept is just too cool! Although Wind Waker will always be special as that was the first Zelda game I ever got. I thought it would make an interesting story if Link and Zelda switched places. Zelda is not some useless damsel in distress princess like Peach. But Peach has her own game in Super Princess Peach for some reason.
