AN: This is an AU Zelink Adventure/Romance. To be honest, this is an original piece that was not supposed to be a fan fiction so the characters are likely going to be way out of the ordinary. This is set in modern day USA. Link is an elite super soldier and Zelda is a pop singer. I know it sounds crazy, but hey, stick with it, it could turn out good. Anyway this chapter is just to get some feedback. If people like what they read, then I'll keep writing, if not, well screw it. Next chapter will be a flashback, which will hopefully explain a lot of the back-story.

0300 Hours Fort Bragg NC

Captain Stephen Link was awoken from his light slumber by the unpleasant sound of a cell phone vibrating on a wooden nightstand. He groggily picked up the phone and checked the number.

UNAVALIBLE

"Perfect" he muttered as he answered the call. He'd had these calls before; a mission was waiting for him.

He hung up the phone after he had the information he needed. He quickly dialed his second in command and best friend, Andrew Kafei.

Andrew answered just as groggily as link had earlier. "What the hell Stephen?"

"Mission time Andrew. Alert the men we need to be at the Delta Compound in 1 hour." He said as he started his shower.

"Dude, I'm so kickin' your ass when we get out of the Army. I can't believe I let you rope me into SF."

Link smiled at this comment. Kafei had been saying that since they joined SF 3 and a half years ago. "Yeah, yeah just make it happen buddy."

Kafei grunted and answered "See you in an hour."

0345 Delta Compound, Fort Bragg, NC

Link looked up from the coffee container as Kafei and the rest of the team entered.

"How's the coffee?" Kafei asked as he shook Link's hand and grabbed a cup.

"Like the humvee out front emptied its transmission fluid into this container." Link answered.

"So better than usual." Kafei said as he poured himself a cup.

Link smiled and took a sip of his coffee. 2 seconds later a door swung open on the other side of the room. LtCol. Harkan emerged with a grave look on his face.

"The shit has royally hit the fan gentlemen. War Room. Now." He ordered then turned around and led the way to the War Room.

The team, which consisted of Link, Kafei, and ten more of the most elite soldiers in the U.S. Army, followed silently into the War Room.

The War Room was home to the most advanced technology on the planet. Super Computers lined the walls and in the center of the room sat a holographic projector, which projected a flat map of the world.

Link smirked slightly. Three and a half years ago, Link would have sworn on his mother's life that such technology only existed in sci-fi movies but the technology in the War Room was only the tip of the iceberg.

Link's eyes immediately moved to a large red blob on the world map over the Atlantic Ocean moving in the general direction of the U.S.

"Sir, what is that?" Link asked seriously.

Harkan smirked at Link. "Observant as always. That, Captain, is the largest group of military aircraft ever assembled. At this point, we only know three things: first, the aircraft all belong to the New Axis. Second, judging from their current flight path, their target is most likely New York City. And third, and most importantly, given the size of this force, our fighters won't be able to stop all of them."

The War Room went silent. 'Another day in the life.' Link thought.
