First chapter, Story should unfold nicely here.

And if not, then I'm guessing chapter 2.

The Last Link

Chapter 1

6 months...

"Link...I...See you later"

Link awoke from his bed with a start. He looked to his window, and found it was still night out. Grumbling, he closed his eyes, and tried to get back to sleep. It had been exactly 6 months since the mirror was broken, and in that short time, the people of Ordon grew exceedingly.

Rusl's son, Colin, followed Link, and his fathers footsteps while training constantly with a blade. Despite the fact he was pretty low in age, the young warrior proved to be quite skilled, and had nearly mastered all of Link's sword moves that he had learned a while back. The 'Helm Splitter' sure was tricky though, as was riding a horse.

The little girl Beth, had learned the basics of a medic, seeing as how she took care of the injured in her time in Kakariko. She thought that it would be quite the profession.

Talo, had taken up arms with a bow, instead of a sword. Ever since Link had showed him that one time in Kakariko on how to use one, he was always equipped with one, wherever he went! Over time he eventually learn how to properly shoot, stand, and (With the help of the Hawkeye from time to time) aim.

Ilia had learned how to tame, ride, and care for horses better than anybody else! Of course she was already good at this a few months back, but now she was obsessed with it. Taming Epona was just a breeze for her now. If there was a horse out there that couldn't be tamed by anyone or anything then Ilia would do it just like that.

Even little Malo had grown since then. He opened up a new shop right inside Ordon, bought everybody in the town they're own horses, and he and his family were never happier.

Other than the children, the villagers were as happy as ever.

It certainly seemed that Ordon, and all of Hyrule even, hit an age of peace...

However, when it came right down to Link, he couldn't have been more miserable or depressed as ever before.

He tried to hide it from the other villagers and thought he was quite the actor some days, but they saw right through him like a cut of glass, they definately knew that something was wrong, or something awful had happened on his quest 6 months prior.

Everytime they would try to talk to Link about it, he would say things like "Oh it's nothing, really", or "I'm fine, I'm just tired today is all", and sometimes he would say "I just lost someone important on my quest, but I'm Okay". He said this as a last resort as people wouldn't usually push the subject further, since they realised that he may still be greaving for the loss of someone important to him.

But Link knew for a fact that he was not 'Okay'.

Despite the fact that he was now a hero to anything and everyone around him, despite the fact that he had returned home and the children were now back and safe, and despite the fact that he had saved hundreds, maybe thousands of people from certain death... There was just a hole in Link's heart that could not be filled except by one person...

And that person, as far as Link knew anyway, was gone forever.

Link woke again from his slumber. Checking the window a second time to find that it was still night. He let a deep sigh escape as he stared at the ceiling...thinking.

"Why did you break the mirror Midna?" he whispered quietly to himself. "Even you said that 'as long as that mirror's around, we could meet again...' and yet, you destroyed it." He got out of bed, and slowly walked towards the window to look at the sky, gently pressing his fingers against the glass. "How do I simply 'let go' of someone so...special to me..." His voice started to pickup in volume. "How do I stop thinking and dreaming about her whenever I have the chance? He was yelling now. "How is it that I must just go home, and try to live like I used to, after nothing more than a simple 'Goodbye' or 'See you later..."?!

At these words, and on the edge of a complete meltdown, he took his anger out on the window, and drove his fist right through it. The glass shattered, and fell to the ground outside, and inside. He cursed himself continuously as the left palm of his hand was now covered in blood, and tiny pieces of glass were dug inside. He calmed down, and sat on his bed, gently taking the shards of glass from his hand. After wrapping it up in bandages, he could think of nothing else to do, or say, so he went back under the covers and tried to get in some sleep.

"HEY! LINK! ARE YOU AWAKE YET?"

Link's eyes shot open as he realised it was finally morning. Half-asleep, he climbed the steps to his other window at the top of his house and looked out expecting to see Talo wondering when he's going to get up and watch him shoot his bow.

It was Colin, however.

"Are you up Link? Today's another training day, don't you remember? I've been waiting for over half an hour out here!"

Link realised that he must have slept in too late and said. "Yea, I'll be right down Colin, just give me a moment please". He climbed down to the floor, and saw that there was still glass around on the inside of his house, so he went to clean it up. His hand had still hurt a lot, and there might have been a few pieces of glass he missed while digging them out. Link's house had hardly changed, the only difference was that instead of an empty chest sitting in the middle of his house, it was now filled with all the weapons and gear he recieved on his quest.

He put on some of his usual Ordon clothes, grabbed his Ordon sword and Hylian shield, and then walked out. He saw Colin getting up from sitting under a tree with his sword and Ordon shield. Link looked up into the sky and saw it was a beautiful sunny day. Epona wasen't here. 'She must be at the spring with Ilia', Link thought.

"Finally...we still need to work on the 'Great spin' Link, it seems the hardest to master of them all-" Colin said as he was distracted by Link's broken window. "-Link, what happened to your window?" "I'm not sure...I'm guessing maybe Malo might have been practising with his slingshot and took bad aim" Link quickly lied. "And your hand?" Colin questioned again as he looked at Link's left hand to see that it was dripping blood, despite the bandages. "I was cleaning up the glass just now, and cut it on a shard" he lied again. It wasen't exactly a lie, but it's better than 'I drove my fist through the window' thought Link. "On just one shard?" said Colin. "It must have went in pretty deep...you should get Beth to look at it you know" Colin suggested.

"Yea, I'll do that later though-" he said as he went over to pick up the glass outside of his house. "- Let's train first" said Link. "Ok, here, stand back a minute, let me show you whether or not I've got the 'Great spin' down pact" said Colin as he drew his sword and shield and got in stance. Link watch as Colin flung around with his sword and stopped on a perfect, yet normal sword spin. He looked at Link. "Well, Colin, remember what I told you, you've got to focus your energy into the blade, just before you go" said Link as he eyed Colin suspiciously. "You've had breakfast right?"

Colin shook his head, as a sigh came from Link. "Your energy also has to be 'Brimming full' before you get it right anyway, cmon then, let's head into the village and grab some breakfast"

After a busy day of training Colin, then training Talo with a bow, fixing his window, helping Fado with his goats, and then getting his hand re-bandaged by Beth, Link was ready to go back to bed. A busy day had always lifted Link's spirits up a notch but from last nights sleep, he was just beat.

It was sunset now, and Colin had just about finished showing Link, Talo, Malo, Beth, and Ilia his improvements. They were just about right next to Faron's spring. "Hiyaaah!" Colin yelled as he came down upon the scarecrow with a fierce jump attack. The pumpkin head exploded as the blade cut through it. The kids clapped as Colin sheathed his sword. "Colin you really are improving, keep practising, day by day, and soon you'll be able to take on your old man!" laughed Link. Colin smiled as Beth said "Ohh! Wait, before we head in, can we see that 'Mortal Draw' move again Link? You do it so well, you look so still and then 'slash!' It's amazing!"

Link smiled as everyone waited in anticipation. He walked over to the scarecrow and stood still, closing his eyes. His fingers neared his old Ordon sword, ready to grab the hilt...

"What's that!? In the sky!" screamed Ilia.

Link opened his eyes to find that a twilight portal had just appeared over they're heads. He quickly remembered that usually when this happened, shadow beasts dropped out of it and attacked. 'Though, that would be impossible now', thought Link. Nonetheless, he took action.

The kids had definately seen this before, and started to look at it in disbelief. "Get back! All of you, now!" Link yelled. They did what Link said as he drew his sword and shield and stood in an attack stance for whatever may drop out of it.

He looked at the portal to see something quite small beginning to fall out of it. He squinted his eyes to try and get a better look at it, and widened them again as his mouth dropped in shock.

The imp form of Midna, the Twilight Princess, landed with a dull thud in front of Link.

From the kids view, it seemed that whatever had landed in front of Link was harmless as he was just standing there staring at it.

"What is it Link?" said a frightened Ilia.

The kids watched as Link dropped his sword and shield, fell to his knees, still staring at whatever they couldn't see. They all ran towards it and took in the site of the beaten and hurt imp.

"What is that thing?"

"Why did it fall from that portal?"

"She looks hurt..."

"Get out of the way!" yelled Link.

Link picked up the small imp as he looked at Midna's unconscious face and felt as if his heart would explode with joy!

Then he realised, that she was unconscious.

He looked her over just to see how bad the situation was, which indeed was. Barely breathing, cuts, and marks all over her body her hair in a tangled mess her fused shadow helmet looking just as it ever did though. Link then got up, and proceeded to run as fast as he could back to his house. Not stopping for the children, or his sword and shield, he ran like he had never ran before. While running with the imp, he couldn't help but feel incredible as he realised after all this time that Midna, had somehow returned.

He got to his house, climbed the ladder, (which was a tad difficult) and kicked his door in. After slamming whatever had remained of his door shut, he went over to his bed and laid Midna upon it. He grabbed a damp cloth from his sink, and placed it on her head. He bandaged up any cuts and marks on her body for healing purposes. Eagerly, he would slowly let water trickle down her throat.

He waited for what seemed like hours and he could do nothing but stare at her. Very slowly, she coughed a bit, and slowly opened her one eye to the site of a soft smile on Link's face.

Well, that's chapter 1 everybody, hope y'all like it!
