So this is a parallel time frame as Stargate Omega, meaning they take place at the same time, but will not meet each other for while. So, keep that in mind. Disclaimer: I don't own Legend of Zelda (but I do own the characters from Veil of Darkness), Lord of the Rings, or Minecraft. Those belong to Nintendo, J.R.R. Tolken, Mojang and Hypixel. There will be spoilers for all 3 of these crossovers.

...

"Dad?"

"Yes, Talon?"

"The border disputes are getting worse. They've requested additional troops again." Brad frowned. The disputes along the border of the Gerudo Desert were becoming worse and worse. Bokoblin raids had skyrocketed in the past two months, forcing Brad's brother, Link, to send him troops.

"Get the 23rd legion ready to move out. I'll be going with them." Talon walked out, towards the barracks.

"No you're not." came a voice from Brad's left.

"I must. It will do them good to see their king fighting with..."

"Then I shall go too." Zelda affirmed.

"Please, no. What if..."

"You always say what if this, what if that, worried about others safety, and never your own."

"Is there something wrong with that?" Brad asked.

"No, but think about it sometime. What if you fall in battle, the king of Hyrule, dead?"
"It takes a lot to bring me down, and you know that." Zelda shook her head, and looked at the map, growing puzzled.

"This make no sense."

"What?" Brad looked at the map again. Each place where there was a battle was marked.

"They're all focused on these two spots, but what about up here?" Zelda pointed at a mark far north on the map, away from anything... well, anything.

"A small skirmish. More of a massacre. They stood no chance."

"It's too far from anything to be of worry, so why send troops up that way in the first place?"

"We had spotted them here." Brad pointed to a spot near Arbiter's Grounds. "We followed them up there. My guess is they were looking for a way to sneak in."

"Dad, the troops are ready." Talon said, walking back in. Brad smiled. Only fourteen years ago, Talon was just entering the world. Now, he was as valiant as his dad, ready to do whatever it took to defend his kingdom.

"Brad, I am coming with you." Zelda said.

"What about Ionna?" Brad asked.

"I can take care of myself here or on the battlefield, your choice." Ionna said, seeming to appear from the shadows. Ionna had the heart of a warrior as well, just like Ashei, one of Hyrule's Finest.

"Face it Dad," Talon said. "We're all warriors. We'll fight." Brad smiled, proud of his family.

"Okay then, get packed up for a few weeks. I don't know how long we'll be."

...

The camp was teeming with activity. A recent raid had gotten the camp in an uproar, and the guard was tripled due to an impending invasion. "Hail, my liege!" soldiers called from their posts as Brad and his family rode into the camp.

"My liege." A young captain walked over to Brad. "They are waiting for you at the main tent, this way." As they were led through the camp, Brad noticed a lot of civilians, both Hylian and Twili.

"Why are there so many civilians here? This is a war camp, not a town." Brad asked.

"Many of them are here to fix weapons or prepare food. Mostly jobs behind the lines." the young man explained.

"I see..." Brad dismounted, and walked over to the entrance of the main tent.

"Look, we have the best fortifications here, here, and here. So, logically, we have to fortify here."

"No, no, no. They know that we have good fortifications there, so that's where they'll attack, knowing that we won't focus on them." Brad knew those voices anywhere.

"When did you two arrive?" Brad said stepping into the tent.

"Brad!" Link ran over and hugged him. "We got here only a short while ago. General Ashei is going over what's happened the past few days." Brad's smile faded. Poor old Auru. The old man and his launcher were always on the field of battle, and was inspirational to even the worst of troops. Three days ago, he was overwhelmed by bokoblins, and fell in battle.

"Based on the way these raids have been going, they are going to send the largest force yet... tomorrow." Ashei said, already calculating risks and rewards, strategies, counterattacks and victory celebrations.

"Tomorrow?!" Zelda asked. "We have to prepare! We have to..."
"It's been taken care of." Link said. "We are going to stop these raid once and for all."

"We ride out against them, bringing our full force, overwhelming them, and ridding them from our land." Ashei said.

"Well, can't get any more straightforward than that." Brad said.

"Good, then we ride tomorrow." Link said.

...

Tomorrow came, and the sun rose over the horizon. Geared for battle, Hylians and Twili alike moved onto the battlefield, ready for anything. Beyond the cliffs, the bokoblin camp was in an uproar. Thousands of troops were moving out, ready to invade Hyrule. Link and Midna rode together, their children next to them. Brad and Zelda did the same, with Talon and Ionna behind them.

-The night before-

"Talon."

"Yes, Dad?"

"Tomorrow will be bloody. Troops will die on both sides. I cannot guarantee your safety tomorrow, or my own."

"Dad, what are you saying?" Talon looked at his father, worried.

"I'm saying that if I die in battle, you must lead the people. You must lead Hyrule. Take my place, and rule over them, but remember to be one of them, and put others before yourself."

"Dad, you will not die." Talon said, looking his father in the eye.

"There are two certainties in life: Death, and taxes. One of the you can't stop, and the other finds you no matter where you run. That's life. It's just what it is."

-Reality-

"Here they come." Link said, drawing the Master Sword. He never put it back. He didn't know why, but he never felt like it's time was over. Brad, Seeker's Sword in hand, urged the troops forward, ever so slowly. The bokoblin army was close now. Urging them faster and faster, the army moved against the bokoblins, ready to exterminate them once and for all.

"Link!" Midna shouted over the noise. "Turn around!"
"Why?" Link asked, confused.

"I sense a large amount of magic coming from the center of the field!" Link looked, but saw nothing.

"I sense it too!" cried Ursha, looking around.

"Your imagining things." Talon said riding next to her. A scream of terror filled the air, followed by more. Link and Brad stopped, looking around.

"There!" Midna pointed at a spot on the battlefield with glowing blue particles in the air, swirling around a central point. The wind shifted, and was being pulled towards the now glowing, swirling mass of blue. The wind pulled at Brad, slowly moving him closer to the now fully formed portal.

"Help me!" Brad called, starting to get lifted off the saddle of Ginger.

"Brad!" Link rushed over with Epona, when a gust of wind pulled him into the portal.

"Link!" both Midna and Brad jumped after him, grabbing him by his ankle. Zelda and their children ran over and started pulling at them, hoping to pull them back. The rest of the army did the same, holding onto Zelda, but they were a moment too late.

"Brad!" Zelda watched as her husband was pulled away from her, and she dove into the portal after him.

"Mom!" Talon ran forwards, but the portal vanished from sight, leaving him and the army standing there, wondering.

...

That's the end of chapter one! Once again, there will be spoilers, and you should read Veil of Darkness first. This is a direct sequel to that fanfic. I'm really liking the ideas I've got so far, but I want to hear your ideas too! I will not be killing off any main characters, so keep that in mind. Thanks!
