I do not In any way own Legend of Zelda and any of it's characters or locations. The O.C. I do own.
AUTHOR'S NOTE!
About two weeks or so ago I created a pokemon fanfic that to be honest with you all sucked. I want to pull it and focus on rewriting it after I'm done telling this story. This is the story of a Kokiri and takes place about the same time as Link's departure from Kokiri Forest. Another thing is that I will be making a number of original creatures that do not exist in the game. After the story is done I will make a guide to explain each original creature and person. Thank you for being understanding and giving this story a read. I also appreciate helpful reviews and ideas! (I do honorable mentions so your help will not go unnoticed).WARNING: There is quite a bit of foul language and sexual implication (Noted for later chapters) and quite possibly a few instences of sex (in which I will describe to the best of my ability =D).
Chapter 1: A Dream Carved into Existence.
A slash, a stab, a scream, these are the things that keep me up at night. My name is Carve and I am a Kokiri. About 3 years ago I started having nightmares. Terrible, mind-numbing nightmares. Every night it's the exact same; A person wearing all black is standing on a castle that is covered in flames, surrounded by blood, silence filling the air. Than they start talking in a strange language to a man who is covered in armor from head to toe. The person begins to get angry with the armor covered man and starts to shout, suddenly the person on the rock leaps towards the armored man and slashes at him with a blade of some kind. The armored man simply grabs the person's head and stabs them with a massive sword. Then comes the scream, that's what wakes me up. Sometimes I worry that the scream is so loud it'll wake up my fairy.
I awoke with a start and swung my head around wildly searching for familiar sights, trying to determine if I was still where I was when I fell asleep. Waterfall? Check. Houses in trees? Check. Fairy pissed off that I just accidentally flung him from my head when I sat up? Check. Yup I'm awake.
"Din Damnit! Do you do this on purpose, or do you just not have a method to your madness? I mean one minute your asleep and I'm nice and comfy in those long, luscious brown curls of yours, and the next I'm eating the ground while you successfully scare the living shit outta me! Come on! Do you see me screaming while your asleep jackin off? No? Then....STOP DOIN IT TO ME!
That foul mouthed, pissed off little glowing man is Napper and he is my Fairy. Besides being the worst tempered of all the faries in the village he is also a partner to one of the most down to Earth Kokiri there has ever been. Needless to say we go together quite well, most of the time.
"Sorry little man didn't know you were sleepin up the- wait did you say you were jerkin it in my hair? "Ummm... Mornin Carve howdja sleep? He looked at me happily, his face curled into what I can only describe as a painful smile. "Meh same old same old. Seen a person slaughtered once you've seen it a thousand times." I replied. Like I said, things don't really get to me. Most people after having the same bad dream for two days in a row go tell Saria and look for a shoulder to cry on. Me? Three months and I'm still sane. This comes from my amazing ability to vent my anger and frustration. You see there's another reason that I'm as "down to Earth"as I am. I have the ability to manipulate the ground around me, which can come in handy every now and again.
Ever since I was a young child I have been the town Blacksmith or generally just the go to guy. For as long as i can remember I was being asked to make weapons to train and spar with, utencles to eat with, or just for making mazes for the other kids to play in. Yup all and all it's a good life with a good purpose. But these dreams have kinda been mukkin it up for me. Now in order to continue with my life as normal I need an hour break every day to do a little of what I call "Elemental Manipulation". Elemental Manipulation is when I use my powers in order to change something in shape or appearance like alchemy without all the risks and dangers. This requires an enormous amount of concentration and energy, but the end result is worth it.
"So sleepy head whatcha plan on doin today?" Asked Napper. "Probably go and check up on the shop for a few hours,maybe see if Twi broke her ax or spear again, nothin much." I replied. You just wana go see Twi cuz u wana do her!." Said Napper before breaking into a laughing fit. Just then we both stopped in our tracks to see the loves of our lives walk by. Twi was looking dashing as usual and her fairy Polgra was looking like an orange ball as usual. Twi was in one word, Perfect. Her hair was a smooth orange, her clothes a nice red, and her face was flawless, not to mention a rack that woud embarrass a professional stripper. Polgra was skinny even for a fairy, had wings with beautiful designs on them, and was the fastest fairy in the whole village.
Twi also goes by another name; The Stone Guardian. Unlike most Kokiri's, when Twi was young she had loved the smell and taste of blood. Saria says that raising her to not cut her arms, legs, or even other people was very hard. Twi's teen years were better though because it was when she first lifted an ax that she found her calling. She is what you call a hunter, she loves going into the forest to kill Wolfoes or sometimes even a Dark Bear to bring back to the village for a feast. She is a loose cannon and takes pride in the fact that she scares everyone with a look, well everyone except me.
Twi takes notice of me and begins to walk in my direction. "Holy shit dude, run away!" Napper frantically whispered in my ear. "Nah man just relax. If Twi wanted to kill you I guarantee she coulda done it from all the way over there." Just then I noticed Twi standing not even a foot away from me. Damn she's quiet. "Hello boys." Said Twi. "Hey Twi!" Said napper faking enthusiasm. "Hey Carve could you do me a solid? I'm goin huntin for the end of the year feast and I'm gonna need you to repair my ax and make me a few dozen arrow heads." "I don't see why not. I'll have 'em done by the end of the day!" "Thanks man I'll make sure to get extra meat for ya." And with that she walked away.
It was at that point I noticed that my Glowing purple shadow was floating near Twi's head. And just like every time before that he came floating back with his arms limp and his head hung. "She shootcha down again?" I asked. He just nodded his head before he flew back towards the cave that we call our home. I sighed and mumbled; "Well he'll get over it, just like every time before this." I turned and walked towards the mining center I set up in the hillside near the training area to begin searching for some Iron and some coal to make her some more weapons that Twi would no doubt break.
I began to feel empowered surrounded by all of the ores and gems lying around my workplace. Summoning my strength I raised my arms and felt tendrils expanding from my mind into the ground. Iron rose into the air and into the furnace. After a short while the ores had melted and are now a liquid solution of metal. Summing another small amount of my strength I lifted the molten slag from the furnace into the molds and after they cooled a bit I summoned my stone hammer from the wall. I raised the massive tool above my head and grinned. "Today is going to be a good day!" I said to myself as I set to work.
