Hero of Time's Descendent
Prologue
Link awoke from a quick nap and readjusted his dirtied green tunic. His boots were soggy from Lake Hylia, after resting his feet in the water. His gleaming sword and shield lay resting by his side. He sat up slowly and looked around. Epona, near the scientist's house, was munching lazily on a patch of uncut grass. Link stood up and brushed the grass from his tunic and picked up his sword and swung it around. Since there hadn't been much evil looming around Hyrule he hadn't made much use of his weapons.
He was now living in the Palace but enjoyed the occasional visit to the Koriki village and Lake Hylia. He would take Epona out for rides along the land of Hyrule and would spend much of his time at Lake Hylia or Death Mountain. He had married, Zelda, after turning 21. He enjoyed wandering around and being outside instead of being kept inside the walls of the Palace. He had done too much after defeating Gannon, and Majora's Mask. It had been years since his adventures, quests and battles. He had defeated some spirits that had attacked Hyrule, but it didn't compare to the Temples and bosses that he had defeated the years before.
He feared that his skills would wane and he would become nothing more than a lazy man much like Talon. He shuddered at the sudden thought and slipped his sword into his sheath with a quick click. He lifted his shield and moved it around, stretching his arms. He looked at Epona and walked over stroking her mane. He hoisted himself onto the horse, whom snorted and lifted her head from the patch of grass. Link blew a tuff of sandy blond hair from his face and padded Epona. He knew that he had to get back to the palace for a special event. He knew that if he were late again that he would get an earful from Zelda and his daughter.
His daughter was turning nine. The years seemed to have passed by all too quickly. He was on the verge of thirty, although looking more handsome than ever he was worried about his swordsman skills and dreading that they would disappear with age. Zelda had tried to reassure him that he would never lose his skills and would always be her warrior and protector. It had brightened his attitude, but the thought of him being a fighter at age eighty just made him wonder. He knew as a Hylian that aging was expected; sometimes he had wished he was a Koriki, but Zelda told him that she enjoyed the man that he had become more.
He kicked Epona's sides and she reared back. After this act she galloped off toward the castle, the sun high in the heavens.

Chapter 1
"MOM! Mom, he's back!" Squealed Arrow, running to the gates. Zelda walked behind her daughter and gave Link a look of relief. He grinned and walked towards the two kissing Zelda and picking up Arrow. She laughed and held onto Link throwing her arms around his neck.
"Looks like someone's happy" he chuckled holding a squealing Arrow on his back. She rested her head on his shoulder and looked at him.
"Dad…" Link glanced at her from the corner of his eye. "Hmmm?" "What took you so long, you didn't fall asleep again did you?" He looked outside. His eyes wandered to Zelda who was smiling at the two.
"Gee, I thought I got here at a good time…" he laughed and swung Arrow from his back and put her on the ground. She was wearing the small green tunic Link had had when he was a child. It fit her well, but gave him a sense of worry. He was about nine or ten when he started fighting. Zelda looked uneasily at Link who was wearing a worried expression.
"Is something wrong Link?" Zelda asked her voice carrying concern. He snapped out from his trance and shook his head, smiling at her. Arrow impatiently tugged at his tunic and looked up at him as he glanced down at her.
"Hey Dad..did you bring me anything? It's my Birthday!" He laughed and looked up at Zelda who was stifling a giggle. He searched his tunic and took out a brown leather pouch. Her eyes widened and she watched him intently and Link gave her the pouch. She opened it and took out a odd nut.
"A Deku nut?" She lifted her gaze and gave him an interesting look. Link blushed and Zelda giggled and looked at the two.
"Yes, a Deku nut. You can paralyze enemies with it. I used it when I was your age." He smiled worriedly and Arrow put in the pouch and hugged him tightly.
"Thanks" She smiled and ran to who mother who was handing her a long package. Arrow grinned and was busy opening the package when Zelda slipped over to Link.
"What's wrong with a Deku nut?" He asked Zelda looking into her eyes looking a bit lost. She laughed to herself and ran her hand along his face. He smiled and brightened. "What did you get her?" She looked at the excited Arrow and then back at Link.
"You'll see…" "WOAH!THANKS MOM!" Arrow squealed as she picked up a mahogany bow from the scraps of torn paper. She hugged it tightly and ran over to Zelda hugging her and the bow. Link looked at the bow, it had the Royal Crest and Triforce symbol embossed on the outside. Zelda smiled and and patted her back.
"How about you go in the other room and open some presents from the villagers." Arrow giggled and ran into the other room the pouch tied to her side and holding the bow. The door shut with a bang and Zelda turned to Link. He seemed to be thinking hard, he turned to Zelda and gazed into her eyes being lost in them.
"Zelda, you got her a bow?" Worry was clearly showing. Zelda nodded and stroked his hair. "Yes, is something wrong with that?" Link readjusted his hat and took her hand and held in his.
"Zelda I would like it if well we didn't give her weapons." Zelda stood back and placed her hands on her hips.
"Now Link, I believe that your present is more of a weapon than mine." Link stepped back in shock.
"How is that possible? You gave her a BOW!" He tried hard not to raise his voice at her and stepped back.
"Yes, Link, I gave her a bow, but it can be used for a sport called archery. You gave her something that stuns enemies and nothing else." Link dropped his gaze to the floor.
"It doesn't hurt anything it just stuns…Zelda, I just don't want her walking in my footsteps, I want her to be safe." Zelda walked over and stroked his face gently with her hand.
"Link she has you to protect her." Zelda kissed Link on the lips and he held her in his arms. The doors burst open and Arrow ran in holding some items then stopped seeing the two kiss. "Ech.." She made a face and the two stopped, Link readjusted his tunic and Zelda let go of him and walked over to Arrow.
"So hunny what did you get?" Arrow grinned and showed her mother various items consisting of a velvet teddy bear, a beautiful saphire necklace, games and clothes. Arrow chatted away with Zelda as Link was gazing off into space, lost in thought.
Thanks for reading! That's only chapter 1, there is a whole exciting plot to come. Tell me what you think thanks! I know it is REALLY short, sry I will write more.
