A/N- Before we get on with the story, there is one thing you need to know about my writing, if I feel it's okay, then I use my character Tsuyoi as the main character, as well as the characters Zelphie, Kio, and Yuan. They are my recycled characters
ON WITH THE SHOW
Legends were thought to be myths these days. But there rests a legend that holds my bones. A legend that was celebrated, forgotten, remembered, forgotten again, and is now only told by storytellers to children, a tale to teach children to do the right thing, and be courageous. But what if that legend was true? What if magic was real? What if fairies really flew in the forest? What if boats talked? What if a mirror could transport you from one world to the other? What if monsters roamed the lands? What if there was a sword in a stone, waiting to be used to save the world yet again, by the Hero of Time?
Tsuyoi looked at his grandfather "Grandpa, I know the Legend of Zelda used to be my favorite story as a kid, but I'm sixteen years old..."
His grandfather laughed "I know, but it's good to relive good childhood favorites"
Tsuyoi chuckled "You know, it's your fault I almost got myself killed a few years back trying to save 's cat on the mountain"
His grandfather laughed "Those were some BIG rats."
Tsuyoi laughed "Mom was pissed, but you were just beaming behind her" he chuckled "I was proud of you, that was a grand show of courage"
He looked away and blushed "Shush, I know I used to obsess"
His grandfather chuckled "Go to bed, you have school tomorrow"
"Fine" Tsuyoi said "Night Gramps"
"Goodnight Tsuyoi"
Tsuyoi left the room His grandfather chuckled "He shows a lot of courage... I wonder..."
Tsuyoi woke up the next morning and took a shower, then went to eat breakfast "School should start at ten..."
"And then you'll complain that it should start at twelve, and o on, and so forth" His mother said "Now eat up"
He ate, then left for the bus. He thought about the previous night, and how his grandfather started talking about that old legend so randomly, he always seemed to think it was real, but it's a children's story...
"Tsuyoi, do you believe in magic?" Tsuyoi's grandfather asked "I don't know..." An eight year old Tsuyoi said "It could be real... but.. no one can use it anymore" He shrugged His grandfather smiled "Well, your more open minded than your father, that's for sure"
Tsuyoi blinked "He doesn't believe in magic?"
His grandfather shook his head He chuckled
Tsuyoi swung a stick at a few dummy's he set up, ad swung again, and again, till they were finished.
His grandfather walked out "Nice swing" He grinned "Thanks gramps" Tsuyoi said "Happy tenth birthday" He handed him a gift card "I know you like choosing your own gifts, so people wont be trying to figure out what they want"
Tsuyoi smiled "Thanks again"
"No problem"
Tsuyoi set up the dummy's again, and started again.
"How long have you been practicing?"
"Well... I started ACTUALLY practicing last year, before then I was just fooling around"
"You have a natural talent" He smiled "T-Thanks" He said "You really are a thankful person' His grandfather laughed
"Those... are BIIIG rats..." Tsuyoi sighed "Heeere kitty kitty" The cat looked at him, but kept sitting there "Ooooooof course" He sighed again "What would Link do?" He walked toward the cat, and one of the rats lunged, but Tsuyoi pulled out his knife and sliced it down. He walked toward the cat more, and fought off the rats, and got the cat and left. Slightly cut up, bruised, but fine otherwise.
"Here " He gave her the cat "You brave boy!" The woman exclaimed "Risking your life for my cat! Everyone knew about the infestation of giant rats!"
He smiled "It was nothing"
"It certainly wasn't just nothing"
"It was" He smiled "I'll be heading home now" He went home "If only more of the boys in this town were like him"
"What do you think you were doing?" His mother asked "Had me scared half to death! Were you trying to et yourself killed?"
"No mom, I was trying to save a cat from a bunch of giant rats"
"Either way!" She was red in the face Tsuyoi noticed his grandfather beaming at him
"Tsuyoi!" Kio said "We're at school, get up"
He sighed "Fine" What brought on those memories? He got up and off the bus, going into school, he hung out, leaned, and the such, he walked out of the school at lunch with Kio, Zelphie, and Yuan and went to sit down. "I told you the Legend of Zelda, right?"
Kio laughed "No, you defenately HAVEN'T told us a thousand times"
Tsuyoi chuckled "Yeah, but my grandfather made me think...it's a legend, think it could be real?"
Zelphie sighed "Tsuyoi, there's no chance that it;s real"
Kio nodded on agreement Tsuyoi laughed "Yeah, your probably right, grandpa was just trying to get me thinking again"
They nodded, and ate. But Tsuyoi couldn't shake the feeling that something was going to go weird. He looked at the woods, and saw a blue ball, that rang like a bell. He got up "What... is that?"
"What's what?" Zelphie asked Tsuyoi started to walk towards it, and the other three followed. "Tsuyoi, where are we going?" Yuan asked "Not sure..." He walked farther, until he found the light "There you are!"
"What is it?"Kio asked "Be fucked if I knew"
It rang and flew into a light, and dissapeared "Guys, I think it wants us to go into that light"
"I don;t know..."
Tsuyoi walked toward it "You guys don;t have to come"
Kio chuckled "And miss an adventure like this? Fuck you" He walked toward him Zelphie smiled at them "This might be a bad idea, but..." She walked toward them Yuan smiled "And what would you guys do without me?" she waled toward them Tsuyoi smiled and touched the light. It felt warm, then everything went white.
Kio chuckled "Either he went to another place, or he died..."
"Let's go" Yuan touched the light, followed by Kio.
Zelphie sighed "I have a bad feeling about this..." she touched the light
Tsuyoi woke up in a forest "I don't think we're in Kansas anymore..."
Kio chuckled "We never were"
Yuan was drinking water "This place sure looks confusing..."
Tsuyoi got up and chuckled, taking out a looooong piece of string Zelphie looked at him weird "You never know when this would come in handy" He tied it to a tree and walked through a huge log, ten minutes later, he was back, though the other side.
"You lost?" Kio asked "Yeah..." He said looking thoughtful Yuan raised an eyebrow "What?"
"Lost...woods..." He looked up "We're in the lost woods! Listen! You hear that song? It must be Saria's Song!"
Kio sighed "Tsuyoi, what are the chances?"
He sighed "I guess your right... But, still, the music must mean people!"
"That's better" Kio said Tsuyoi followed the music, and they found a little village of tree stumps... but it looked abandoned.
"Well...Least we can sleep here"
Yuan nodded Ko yawned "Good idea"
Tsuyoi climbed a ladder to get into his chosen house. He got into the bed and slept.
He woke up and looked around the house, he saw a little bag and opened it, it was a bottomless pit, and it had some nuts and sticks in it. As well as a brown ocarina. "Might be useful..."
He went to the little pond to get something to drink, but froze when he noticed that Yuan and Zelphie were bathing I... Should go somewhere else for now... He went around and went through a path, and suddenly, two plants attacked him, he jumped out of the way, and threw a rock at them, they poofed, and dropped some nuts. "Hmmm..." He picked them up and then walked along, he found the biggest tree, EVER, and it looked like it had a face, he walked toward it. "Quite the thing, that is"
"Thank you very much, young one, now, may I ask what you are doing in the Kokiri Forest?"
"I wok- Ko-Kokiri Forest?"
"Yes, but may I please receive an answer to my question, and I'll answer yours?"
"I woke up in the Lost Woods after being transported by this light..."
"Ah, so I see... now, may I ask you of a favor? I'm alone now, you see, so your the only one who can"
"I-I'm not ..."
"Nonsense, now, go into the Village and Search out a blade and go into the shop and take a shield"
"But... isn't the Kokiri sword a tiny little thing?"
"It was... until Link was done with it..."
"Is-Is the rest of Hyrule abandoned like this?"
"No, it is only because my poor little Kokiri have gone into possibly permanent hiding"
"Oh..." He said "Is Saria still a sage?"
"My word, how do you know so much about the legends of old?"
"I had a very good storyteller"
The tree chuckled "And what was his name?"
"Riugya Hitsuagi"
The tree was silent for a while "So, of course he is a very good storyteller... now, go complete the tasks I have assigned you"
Tsuyoi nodded and walked off.
