Author's notes: I am still looking for a beta reader if anyone would like to apply. Also, to clarify, Old Hyrule looks like Twilight Princess's Hyrule, while New Hyrule obviously looks like the Hyrule of Spirit Tracks, though more developed in terms of villages and cities. Finally, in my fanfiction, there are no automobiles, instead, the main mode of transportation are trains that run on economically friendly means, such as solar energy and wind energy.
Disclaimer: I do NOT own Legend of Zelda or it's characters. If I did, Navi would have gotten eaten by king Dodongodongo in the second dungeon of OoT
Chapter three:
"That will come in due time, but first, do you accept the fate that has befallen you," Daphnes asked in an extremely serious manner. "Yes, I have," Lincoln replied," I am Link, The Hero of Time reborn." Lincoln said proudly.
That was fifteen minutes ago. The King and Link are now situated in the war room, awaiting the arrival of the princess, who just sent word of her arrival a few minutes ago via telepathy, which needless to say shocked Link, as he had not thought that his awakening would trigger hers. At any rate, Link fished the Ocarina that he made in woodworking, and went to play it. It was no sooner Link put the tip to his mouth however, that Zelda opened the doors to the war room and walked in panting from running there from the castle garden.
Twelve minutes ago at the palace garden
Zelda was walking around the garden until she got to a specific patch of flowers. "The Hylian royal blue pansy flower is so majestic," Zelda thought happily. "Wait, why is this smell so familia-" Zelda said, being interrupted by a immense pain that forced her to double over. "What's going on?" Zelda thought through the pain.
"Zelda, are you okay," Impa, Zelda's caretaker said,rushing over to her charge once she saw Zelda cringing for some reason. Then, just as suddenly as the pain started, it stopped. "I remember everything now," Zelda muttered under her breath as Impa stood over her, trying to figure out what was wrong. "I'm okay now Impa," Zelda told her while trying to establish a mental connection with Link.
"Hero,can you hear me?" Zelda asked through telepathy. "Zel, is that you?" Zelda heard a deep, muscular voice answer, surprising her a little, before realizing that the mental link was somewhat established. "Yes Link," Zelda said with a smile, and within a second, the mental link was fully established. Around her, the land faded out, before the land took form, showing a familiar sight that she knew all too well, the temple of time, and on the other side of the main room was Link.
"Where are you right now," Link asked, a familiar smile, the one she loved, plastered on his face. "The castle garden Linku," Zelda said, causing Link to blush profusely. "I see that my nickname that my ancestor gave you when they founded New Hyrule STILL makes you blush," Zelda said, giggling. "I guess so," Link agreed, giggling along with her.
"Could you please come to the war room? We are about to discuss what is going on that could have possessed your father to summon me and have me pull The Master Sword from it's sheath of stone,"Link said once he managed to stop laughing, though he couldn't stop himself from breaking out in laughter again. "See you in a few Linku,"Zelda said, still giggling like a little kid. "Yep, see you in a few Zel,"Link said, blushing from being called his nickname again. And with that, they broke the mental link.
When his consciousness returned to the war room, Link noticed that a guard was turning to leave, and stopped him. "You going to get the princess?" Link asked the guard. "Y-yes sir; why do you ask," the guard asked. "There's no need, as she is already on her way," Link replied with a smile on his face as the now confused guard walked out of the room.
"How do you know that she is on her way?" Daphnes asked with a raised eyebrow. "Your daughter has awakened," Link replied with a gleeful smile, though would not divulge anything else.
Back to the present
Link had turned to her and bowed, causing the now recollected princess to smile and hold out her gloved hand. Link was quick to respond by walking over and getting to one knee, gently taking off Zelda's glove, then kissed her hand lightly, before slipping her glove back on and guiding her to a chair next to him, all the while Zelda was giggling, causing Daphnes' jaw to hang open and raise his eyebrow. "Am I missing something," he asked once both his daughter and Link were sitting. "What do you mean?" Link asked with a smile.
"I mean what is going on between you and Zelda,after all, she usually is cold to just about everyone when she first meets them," the King said, slightly exasperated from everything that had happened that day, though once he said that, Link and Zelda started laughing like they knew some inside joke that he was left out of. "Thanks to awakening to our roles as the Hero and the Sage of Sages, we remember our past lives, and a few of our ancestors have even gotten married. So you could say we know each other VERY well," Zelda said through laughter, but they both quickly calmed down when Daphnes gave them a stern look that easily conveyed that he wanted them to be quiet. "Ahem. Then let's get started," Link said laughing.
End note: In short, Every review helps give me inspiration to keep typing my story, so please keep those reviews flowing. What is the reason that Link had to pull the Master Sword from it's sheath of stone? You will just have to wait until next time to find out.
