ƒ√ƒ∫ Earth Land X783: Freesia Town. ∫ƒ√ƒ
"Greetings readers, and welcome to this week's addition of Sorcerer Magazine. As always I am your 'Cool!,' reporter Jason, and today we have a special guest today. Please give it up for 'Erza, Scarlet. '"
"Jason please, there is no else here, but the two of us." A young woman with red hair, named Erza, commented with a cough.
"Sorry, sorry." The blond reporter responded sheepishly. "But, Erza is so 'Coool!' I can't help myself."
"Please, the interview, remember?" She asked trying to bring the reporter back on track.
"Ooh, right, right." Jason said as he rubbed the back of his head. "Now Erza, one of the main questions we receive from our readers are revolving around you. Care to answer some of the most popular questions?"
"I will try to answer them the best as I can." She replied as she brought her tea up to her lips. "But the main question is, where to begin to answer them?"
ƒ√ƒ∫ Hyrule X N/A: Scared Grove. ∫ƒ√ƒ
A man wearing a green tunic, and a green hat was slowly walking through a maze of trees. He had long ago dismounted from his horse, and had to precede the rest of the course on foot. Before him was old ruins of a temple long forgotten. He jumped off the edge of a crumbling wall and down into a room below. It was once round room with multiply pillars around it. He sighed softy remembering the last time he was here with his friend who is now long-lost, and beyond his reach.
He pasted two statues that stood side-by-side standing guard over the entrance to the pedestal of time. He walked up the steps with a slow stride as he head to return the sword on his back. His journey as the hero of Hyrule came to an end, and so did his need of the master sword. He removed the sword from the scabbard and was about to place back into the pedestal when a something on the ground caught his attention.
He sheathed his sword and picked up the object that was lying on the ground. It was a stone, black as night, and had a crest of the Triforce that glow a silver hue. Its shape could be called a wolf's head with the Triforce in the center.
As he held the object in his hand it began to glow. The young man looked at the object closely wondering was causing the stone to act strangely. The stone's glow disappeared for one moment before discharging with magical energy that was the same color as the silver glow. He yelped and dropped the stone causing it to shatter into dust.
"That reminded me of those bugs that held the stolen light from the spirits." He thought as he shook his hand trying to get feeling to return.
From underneath his leather gauntlets the Triforce of Courage began to glow gold before fading into silver. As it increased in brightness, a magic circle formed at his feet. At the center of the circle was the Triforce, and around the edge of the circle were runes in the shape of jagged flames that flickered.
**Crack**
The young man froze as he felt the floor that he was standing on give an inch. In the deepest part of his mind he was hoping that the floor would at least stay, but his experiences was telling him it would not.
"AAAAAAGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!" He cried out as the floor fell.
The ruins were quiet for all, but a minute before the floor glowed the same silver hue, and fixed the hole in the ground.
"O, Brave Youth, it is time to awaken."
The young man groaned waving his hand as if to swat away a small insect.
"Young Link now is not the time to cast your dreams. Awaken your eyes and stand once more."
The young man known as Link opened his eyes upon hearing his name. Around him the world was dark with only the marble floor in view. He noticed that he lay upon a gold and silver marking of the Triforce, while around that the floor pattern was of a checkered white and black.(1) As he stood, a glow approached him revealing the form of a Great Fairy.
Her wings were not as vibrant variety of color as the Great Fairy he had met before in the Caves of Ordeals. Unlike the one he meet, this Great Fairy wings were a vibrant gold that formed into the shape of butterfly wings. Her hair was white as snow, style in a braid that went down her back. Her clothing on the other hand was not something he thought a Great Fairy would wear. It was an elegant black dress that held pattern of leaves.
"O Brave Youth, I call upon you to help in a matter most dear to me." The Fairy said as she caressing his cheek. "A land that I hold dear will soon come under great trails. Within this land there is a group who call it home, and that holds the light close to their hearts. I ask this one request of you, please help these people who hold the light within them just as you helped my sister, and sisters in times past."
As the Fairy took a step back Link blinked at her statement. "Sisters in times past?" He thought. "That doesn't matter, what does is that she needs my help. I am the savior of Hyrule, how can I not help her." Link looked the Fairy in the eyes before nodding that he would help her.
"I thank you O Brave Youth." She said with a voice filled with graduate and a sense of relief. "I must warn you though, this land will be far from Hyrule, and across the plains of the Universe. It is brimming with many dangers that you cannot comprehend. Are you sure that you will take upon his quest?"
Link only nodded once more. He had made of his mind and no amount of danger will force him to turn back.
"I thank you once more O Courageous Hero." The Fairy garbed his hands in her as a sign of graduate. "This quest shall take you far from the embrace of the Goddesses. For this, I shall give you a gift."
She tapped his forehead with a silver light emanating from her finger.
"With this power of light hidden in the dark, you shall regain your full power to transform into your 'Divine Beast' from. It will also allow you powerful magic in both forms just as you used your powers from the realm of light and the realm of twilight to save Hyrule. Use this new power from the realm of twilight to save the land I hold dear."
She stepped back away from Link lifting her hands into the air. She knelt touching her hands to the ground sending out a silver light towards the Triforce that Link stood upon. The light slowly began to rise around him. The feeling he gained from it was like water slowly rising around a person. Unlike the other times he been pulled into the twilight, this one was slow and gentle.
"Run swift, O Courageous Hero, so that you may return safely in time." The Great Fairy called out to Link as the light enveloped him. Once the light finished covering Link it disappeared along with him. "For the equilibrium of many realms is handing by a thread, and with your help it can change the beliefs of others, and help create a new world."
"Do, you think that his presence will cause enough of a change?" A new voice asked from the shadows.
"That is still an unknown, but all we can do is pray to the Goddesses that it will be enough."
ƒ√ƒ∫ Earth Land X776: Out side of Magnolia Town. ∫ƒ√ƒ
Link landed in a grove of trees as a starry sky shone brightly above. The experience of being warped was different from the twilight portals. Instead of being broken down and pulled through, and reformed on the other size. This experience was like falling down a river of light only to emerge on the other side.
He was on his knees gasping for breath while trying to cough out the non-existent water. Deep within is mind however he heard one last message from the Great Fairy that sent him here.
"O Brave Youth, find those who hold the light dear. You will know them for they carry the name of Fairies with pride. Find them and with our help light will return to this land. Also do not worry about your new form. It was necessary for the years to turn back, so that you will be ready when the time came."
Link quirked his brow at the message, but he would need to worry about it later. Right now he need a drink of water, which the sound of a spring near by caught his ear. He stumbled over to the spring and began lifting up the water in his hands. The water was sweat and cool that refreshed him with new vigor. The water almost reminded him of the spirit spring back at Ordon Village.
He wiped his mouth with his hand letting out a satisfying smack of his lips. As the ripples died down he looked at his face, or rather the lack age on his face. Instead of an older face looking back at him it was a face of him of younger age. He had reverted back to when he was of age ten at least. Then the shock hit him.
"Is that what the Great Fairy meant by 'my new form was necessary?"
All Link could do was gap at his appearance before surging it off. He returned to his feet looking around him for any signs that he might be able to use to help in his search. He sighed before dropping his shoulders, for as far as the eye could see there were only trees. That was when he heard the scream coming across from the other side of the spring. He heard the crashing of trees as the sound moved farther away at a great speed.
"Tsk." Link gritted his teeth. There was no way for him to catch up at his current size. Then he stopped for a moment and thought.
"If I can't make up speed in this form, might as well try my wolf form."
He as soon as he thought it, his Triforce of courage glowed silver as a circle appeared at his feet. The circle moved upwards covering Link in silver light and shifted him into the form of a wolf. He howled as soon as the magic circle disappeared. He felt the all to familiar chain around his forepaw, but this time he felt more. Like a hidden power that slept deep within him. He quickly glanced at the spring before grinning.
"At least I am the same size in my wolf form despite reverting back in age."
His ears perked up at the sound of breaking branches returning him to the task at hand. He snarled as he burst through the trees weaving through them at a neck breaking speed. As he entered a new clearing with a rock formation, that created a wall, did he see what had caused the disturbance in the woods.
Before Link was what looked like a giant monkey or ape covered in green fur. Its head reminded him of two cones placed together forming its pointing head and chin. Along its bulky arms were patches of pink fur in the shape of hearts. The monkey was dancing back and forth while pounding on its chest chanting.
"Me, like woman. Me, like woman."
On the other side of the monkey was a girl wearing rages and an eye patch. She was no older than Link's current form. Her red hair looked like a bird's nest and filled with twigs and leaves. It was no doubt that she gained them from running away from the beast before her. She was huddle against the rock face trying to get away from the monster in front of her.
Link snarled at the monkey before dashing out placing himself between the monkey and the girl. He bared his fangs at the monkey letting out a couple barks to gain its attention.
The monkey blinked at the sight before him before snarling itself.
"Me no like dog, me like woman." The monkey bellowed as it slamming down its fists at Link.
Link jumped backwards, avoiding the blow and landing in front of the girl. The monkey staggered for over reaching causing and opening to form in its defense. Link dashed forward taking full advantage of the opening. Link garbed a hold of the Monkey with his paws and started to bite at its chest. It tried to swat Link away with one of its thick limbs, but Link jumped clear of the monkey.
He spit out some green fur that he had ripped out and shock his head at the terrible taste trying to remove it from his mind.
"Me no like dog. Dog ripped out fur." The monkey bellowed pounding its fist into the ground. That caused the rocks to shack and one to fall hitting it in the head. It started to sway back and forth with one hand in the air pointing at the stars it was seeing.
Link knew now was the time to finish this. He growled and as he did the power hidden inside felt like it was bubbling up. Behind him formed a silver circle with the Triforce in the center of a wolf's mouth. Link howled causing the built up energy to release into the air. Shooting out from the circle the energy formed silver beams of light. They streaked forward in the form of wolves snarling. As the light hit the monkey it sent sending it flying through five trees before come to a halt in a sixth.
The monkey's fur had turned to a brown with steam rising off it. It was twitching and its mouth gapped open as it slumped against the tree.
Link stopped growling once he was for sure that the monkey down. He trotted over to the girl and nuzzled her face with his nose. She looked up into his large blue eyes with tears in her own. Taking a closer look he noticed that she looked exhausted and was about ready to collapse.(2)
"Looks like she has been through a lot. I think it might be best if I go find some help for her." Link decided as he licked her check.
The girl hugged his neck buried her face in his fur. Normal it would be a bad thing, but her strength was almost choking him. He pulled away gasping for breath causing the girl to almost fall over. He was about to change back when he heard some one try to get his attention. Looking around he saw a small squirrel looking down at him.
"Hey wolf, thanks for taking that Vulcan down a peg." The squirrel spoke in a chipper tone. "He causes all kinds of trouble in the forest. Also for save that human behind you. She looks too young for that Vulcan grabbing at her."
Link looked back at the girl who needed to use the rock formation for support. Link knew it was only a matter of time before she fell down from exhaustion.
"She doesn't look to good. If you can bring her with you I can lead you to a healer who can help humans."
Link nodded before lying down next to her. He pointed his noise at her then his back indicating that he wanted her to ride him. It took a few tries before she climbed on his back hanging on his neck as her eyes closed.
It took them about an hour for the squirrel to lead him to a house built inside a tree. He very careful lay down and slid the girl off his back. He pawed at the door before running into the bushes by the advice of the squirrel.
From the door opened an out came an older women with pink hair and a red cloak around her shoulders. She looked around for any signs of life before noticing the girl at her feet.
"You dumb wolf I hate humans. Why couldn't you eat her like you are suppose to instead of bring her here?" The older woman yelled out to the darkness since she saw there was some wolf track that lead away from her home. She sighed and mumbled something under her breath before picking up the girl taking her in side.
Link came out of the bush looking around and sniffed the air.
"Well, now that's taken care of, I better start looking for the one the Great Fairy asked me to find." Link thought as he head north away from Magnolia. Unknown to him that he need to head to the west to find those he was looking for.
ƒ√ƒ∫ Earth Land X783: Freesia Town. ∫ƒ√ƒ
"That SO COOL." Jason yelled as he wrote down the story Erza just told him. "That answer the questions of whether you believe in the Twilight Wolf or not. One last question Erza why did you have me meet you here instead of Fairy Tail?"
"It simple." The redhead warrior spoke as she left her chair. "I was on my way to a job and you wanted an interview on whether I believe in the Twilight Wolf. Besides it is always nice to talk to about the wolf right before I go to fight monsters." The air around her seemed to gleam of her silver armor. In the center of the armor was a shape in the form of a wolf, while the symbol of Fairy Tail looked to be riding on its head. (3)
"So cool Erza, out of curiosity were are you going to fight this monster?" Jason asked as he stood up himself.
"Oh, well right here of course. The monster is just right outside of town and will be arriving here shortly." Erza replied as if it was no big deal. Jason on the other hand, had all the color in his face drain away and was sweating from all the pores in his body.
"Bladur, Fenris, Come." Erza commanded of the to wolves sleeping underneath the table. They were Erza Scarlet noble hounds, Iceberg Timber Wolves. They are one of the largest and smartest wolves in all Earth Land. The normal size of an Iceberg Timber Wolf was three to four feet in height and normal held a grey coat and eye color ranging from ice blue to forest emerald.
Bladur was a pure white wolf with a black stamp of Fairy Tail on his head. His eyes were a rare crimson making him an albino. On the wolf's body was an armor designed for the wolf to allow blades to appear on his back in battle.
Fenris was Bladur brother, but his color was black and had a white mark on his head. His eyes were an ice blue and held only one difference between the two. Fenris was slightly taller coming up to four feet and two inches while Bladur was only four feet. On his chest was armor with a slot for different Lacrimas. Barking or howling would send out blast of magic depending on the Lacrima in the slot.
Through out Fiore, Erza Scarlet was known as 'Titania, Hunter of the Twilight Wolf', along with her hounds known as the 'Yin and Yan of Fairy Tail'.
Author Notes:
Hello people who thought that this book was worth your time to read. This Idea of a fan fiction came to me while read other Fairy Tail and Legend of Zelda cross-overs, such as: Link: Mage of Fairy Tail by Tenrousha, and Lost Legend of the Magical knight by Kazama the shell bullet. After I read this two stories the back of my mind was just buzzing with the idea of me writing my version of what might happen if Link just magically showed up from no where. Of course I only have one Legend of Zelda game so I went with what I know. Know on to areas the I would like to draw attention to.
(1): In this section of the chapter Link landed in a room that he could only see the floor. This room was based of what I could find on the Temple of Time in older games such as Ocarina of Time.
(2): In this section of the chapter Link comes across a young Erza that was being attack by a Vulcan. After he saved her she started to cry and burry her face in his neck. Most Fairy Tail fans would agree that Erza would rarely cry. I would also agree with that since she wore her armor like a shield against her past. At this point and time she was on her way to Fairy Tail when a Vulcan jump down and attacked her. At the time she would have had very little sleep and almost nothing to eat as she fled Heaven's Tower. My point is I would like to see any one at a young age not cry when they are past the point of exhaustion and a perverted monkey jumped out of no where and attacked you.
(3): Finally is the change to her armor. After Link rescued her from the perverted monkey, she became deeply fascinated by the wolves. After all I think most people would agree that any young child that went through what she did would be enthralled by something that was like a divine blessing. Because Link did appeared out of no where kicking the butt of a monkey and saved her after she has been shown nothing but loose and the evil of Zeref.
Anyways I hoped you enjoyed the first chapter. I am looking for a beta reader who knows about other Legend of Zelda series that way I might add some more lore to this story.
