The Legend of Zelda and characters belong to Nintendo, and not to me, as I am a fan and this is only a fan-generated fiction.

The Legend of Zelda: A New Beginning

Chapter I

Zelda stared out unto the Hyrule she had known all her life, where she had grown up, where she will soon rule. It was raining this gloomy night, and her feelings reflected the sad and darkened look of the sky. Her father would die soon of a new and unknown disease. Doctors were trying to find the cure to this oddity, and their searches ended up nowhere every time.

Hyrule was not the old, mysterious Hyrule it once was. It had gone over a major overhaul in technology, so vast and so advanced that the townspeople may never catch up with the sciences. It was 12,000 years after the rise and fall of the Hero of Time, an old legend which Hyrule's inhabitants had long forgotten. The people now flew the skies with their machines, and flew it fast. The Gorons were still around, and they created highly advanced armorsuits with technology beyond comparison. The Zoras dwelled deeper underwater and even underground and made cities much larger than Hyrule, not only deep under Lake Hylia, but they had expanded into Termina's Great Bay and into the seas. The Kokiri had forever remained secluded in the forest, totally safe, but with technology so old it dated back to before the Rise of the Hero of Time. They could never leave their forest, and nobody ever came to visit them save for a few missionaries who were exiled from the Forest when they visited. The Gerudo were almost totally exterminated because of dangerous plagues haunting their lands. The remaining few Gerudo live elsewhere. The Hylians had now caught what they call the Gerudo Plague because a mysterious being flung a dead Gerudo over the walls, and that Gerudo had died of the plague. Some Hylian people had developed stong immunities against this, however a handful of unfortunate people, including the King, would soon die.

Ikenia stared out into the pouring rain. Tonight felt different, it felt as though sinister evil lurked behind that veil of falling water, possibly it was the cause for this abnormal weather pattern. It had been raining like this for two weeks already, and every day the rain had been just as deafening and just as blinding as it had been the day before. Were the Goddesses angry? Had they felt Hyrule left them behind after the Industrial Revolution? Or could it be the one she feared ever since she witnessed her parents and entire family turn into stone…

Link flew back as Dirriden delivered a devastating blow with his wooden sword. Dirriden had seemed surprised he could knock back Link that well. "Dude!" he exclaimed, "Are you okay? I've never nailed you like that hard before!"

"Remember Dirri, I was going easy on you because you're really slow, but," Link touched his side feeling incredible pain, "you're very strong, and I think you broke a rib or two."

"Aww Link, my man, I'm like so sorry. I didn't mean to hit you that hard. I got a little carried away…" Dirri's eyes drifted to the side. "Hey, maybe it'd be a good idea if I were a broadsword fighter!"

"Well, you are strong with a lack of speed, but however, it might be difficult finding a legendary in the broadsword category. Broadsword Legendaries are rather difficult to come by."

Link was using the term "Legendary" to substitute for legendary sword or weapon. Old and fabled swords such as the Master Sword were very powerful and so are still used in even this time of amazing technology as they can destroy armor and work as excellent melee weapons.

"Maybe the Plasma Blade? That was a legendary."

Link's eyes simply widened at this.

Zelda fell to her knees, and the moment this happened one of the guards was very worried. "Princess! Are you okay? Are you okay?" Lieutenant Kersev asked. Worried, he aimed his gun in every possible direction in frantic search for a shooter.

Just after this, the princess hit the floor.

"PRINCESS! PRINCESS ZELDA! CAN YOU HEAR ME, ZELDA?!" He screamed.

Zelda simply laughed a little. Kersev could see tears rolling down her cheeks. "Lieutenant, you have done a fine job. All I need is time alone for quite awhile. In case you haven't noticed, my father is going to die tonight. You are dismissed."

Kersev was taken aback by this, but he quietly left the ballroom with Zelda as the sole being in there. He shut the doors on his way out, and the moment he did, Zelda bawled on the floor.

"No… This cannot bee happening…" Ikenia said slowly and in a fearing tone. "He… he's back… back again… And the end of Hyrule is very close; nobody can stop him…"

Chapter II

The alarm sounded. Civilians everywhere rushed for shelter, for they were coming. Whoever or whatever they were, this force was going to assault Hylia City and the inhabitants had good reason to get out of dodge.

Hylian Special Forces lined the perimeter, the outskirts, and the inner parts of the city, armed with a variety of powerful guns ranging from Ice Missle Launchers to the fabled Holy Arrow Crossbows. Whatever had shown up on radar was going to have some difficulty breaching the complex defense systems.

Zelda stood, just as firm as ever, and stared out of the same window. Dr. Keith rushed through the door. Zelda did not even turn, she just continued to glare out of her window.

"Princess! We have… bad news for you, ma'am." Keith said reluctantly.

Zelda made no noise.

"I don't know how to put this, but your father is-" Zelda cut him off.

"-Dead, yes doctor I already know. Why, you ask? It is because I have forseen this day. Do not forget the daughters born into the Royal Family have prophecies into the future. Anything else?"

"Well, the city is under possible attack."

"What? Possible attack?" Zelda spun around and faced Keith.

"Yes ma'am. A foreign group of biosigns have appeared on the radar. They are 47 kilometers away, and are gaining incredible speed, whatever they are. General Povas has ordered the troopers to man the battlestations and has sent reconnaissance spies out on their Jet Bikes to identify the enemy. All other operations are under way."

"Uzumex… is back…" Ikenia whispered to herself, even though she was all alone. "The Ruler of the Undead must be stopped."

Ikenia donned a stolen armorsuit prototype, made by the Gorons themselves. It was named "Liberator" and its weapon and defense systems were totally redone, but untested. Ikenia ran the risk of extreme injury for incredible defensive and offensive capabilities. She slid on the helmet as she ran out of her door.

Link and Dirriden could hear a loud siren blaring outside. "What do you think that is?" Dirri asked.

"An… attack, maybe? They'll want us to head towards the shelter, but I want to fight tonight. I'm going to assist the soldiers outside."

"And I'll come too!" Dirri exclaimed. "Maybe we can become Hylian Knights some day if they see our abilities!"

Link and Dirriden armed their Pistols and Katanas and busted through the door to see how they could help.

Chapter III

Zelda stood atop Hyrule Castle's tallest spire, with the Ruler's Rapier in her right hand. Most Hylians of the day had long forgotten magic, but Zelda was one of the few who remembered how to conduct magic, and now she would use it for the castle's defense. She concentrated to her palm, and a growing ball of lightning appeared in her hand. This was a holy power, and would work very well if they were fighting evil or undead monsters. She let the lightning disappear, and then focused a ball of green light into her hand and slammed it into the spire she stood on, creating a powerful defense. Finally, she focused power into her lungs and used it to talk so loud that the whole castle, citadel, and city could hear her. "PEOPLE AND DEFENDERS OF HYRULE," she announced. "WE HAVE AN UNKNOWN THREAT BEFORE US AND THIS ATTACK MUST BE STOPPED. MAY THE GODDESSES BE WITH ALL OF YOU."
