Since Link along with Sonic, Sora from Kingdom Hearts and Crash Bandicoot is one of my fave video game heroes I decided this oneshot and Drabble series with each chapter pairing him up with a game but I want to focus on those from Smash Bros and Soul Calibur. I am starting this with Palutena as I want the pairing to be more popular.
It was one afternoon in the Smash Mansion and Link was resting on his bed while reading a book he had brought from Hyrule. It was a child's story storybook that was read to him before bed as an infant. It was about the legend of the Triforce which he of course knew all about. He was relaxing as earlier in a doubles match he and Sonic the Hedgehog had defeated the team of Palutena and Shulk.
"Hi there Link." Said a voice and Link looked to see Palutena entering the room with a smile on her face.
"Lady Palutena." He said getting off the bed and bowing before her but Palutena used a hand gesture to get him to stop."Just Palutena is fine Link, you are not one of my subjects and you have your own royalty and gods to worship. Please refer to me as a friend." Palutena told him and Link did admit he found friends in the various fighters since the first competition. Besides of course the evil ones like Bowser and of course Ganondorf.
"Just showing politeness, you are a Goddess of Light so I think I should I should show the proper respect." Link told him but Palutena smiled as she sat on his bed and motioned Link to sit next to her which he did.
"Yes a Goddess of light who is still capable of being beaten in competitions to great heroes like Sonic and a handsome young man such as yourself." Palutena told him in a flirty tone of voice which Link felt embarrassed by.
"Should Viridi laugh at you are flirting with a mortal?" Link asked and Palutena laughed.
"She would I think would actually be jealous and angry at me flirting with the mortal that she likes." Palutena told him and Link was taken aback by him. "Besides you are a destined reincarnated hero so you are no ordinary mortal Link." Palutena told him and Link did not have an answer to this.
"Yet I can never seem to permanently defeat Ganondorf in any of the lifetimes I have lived." Link muttered but Palutena took his chin into her hand so he could face her.
"That's nothing Link, I have lived for thousands of your mortal years and there are plenty of enemies from the Underworld I could never fully defeat myself. You are a mortal who has defeated an incarnation of ultimate evil yet I am a powerful goddess who needs my top angel Pit to take care of threats to my subjects." Palutena told him but Link only slightly looked better.
"Hey, under your leadership Skyloft flourished under your leadership so there is that." Link told him with a smile and Palutena returned the smile happy that he seemed to be cheering up from that bit of putting himself down.
"If you want, I can invite you sometime to dinner at my palace in Skyloft." Palutena offered and Link smiled accepting the offer and Link blushed asking if it was a date. "If you want it to be one, then it's one." Palutena told him with a giggle to his blushed face.
Here she was the Goddess of Light asking out a warrior mortal to a date, no doubt Pit would be memorised and Viridi would be angry. She tried to hide it well with some insults to the Hyrulian but there was no fooling Palutena that the Goddess of Nature had a crush on Link herself.
Maybe she could try her luck in his next life but in this one, Palutena didn't think she wanted to let this warrior go without a fight.
Thank you for reading and hope to hear your feedback by reviews. The last bit was inspired by Super Smash Shipping by rockflavouredicecream where after losing Link to another girl, Viridi vows to win Link over in one of his future lives.
If you have a sugestion please do so by Private Message. Here are some I got planned for future Chapters:
Sophitia from Soul Calibur
Sheik (I am thinking of a story where after Ganondorg is defeated Zelda reveals to Link she was Sheik as he had a romance with the masked girl)
Wii Fit Trainer
Shantae
