The Hylian League

A crossover by Star Wars nut

Authoress Note: Chapter 6! Woot! I'm picking up right where I left off, and I'm just gonna say now, if you were getting sick of Terra Gerudo, boy are you lucky. They finally leave in this chapter, and we find out who precisely the Hornets are.

Disclaimer: I do not own Storm Hawks or Legend of Zelda. However, I do own my OCs, and they are not to be duplicated or ripped off without my permission.

Chapter 6

Marina groaned again and asked, "Are you sure..." Kaida cut her off, "Yes, I'm sure. Stork here and I have both tried what we can and it hasn't helped. The only mechanic in the area skilled enough to help us is Malon. I know you hate the Hylian Hornets, but..." This time it was the Sky Knight's turn to interrupt, "I don't hate the Hornets. I hate their arrogance, their over-the-top formality, and their Sage; but I don't hate them personally. Well, most of them." She paused before asking, "Are you sure there's nothing we can do?" The pilot only nodded.

"Um, excuse me?" Stork piped up, "I know you all have your own little personal problems here, but can we focus on, I dunno, maybe getting my ship fixed?" Everyone looked a little startled at Stork getting this agitated. An awkward silence ensued, only to be broken by Piper.

"Who are the Hornets?" Piper asked in a sensible tone.

"The Hylian Hornets," Naboroou explained, "are Terra Hyrule's Sky Knight squadron. Their carrier pilot, Malon, is one of the most skilled mechanics in the whole Hylian League. If anyone can repair your ship, she can."

"Well then, lets go see them," said Aerrow firmly, "whatever gets the Condor repaired." Marina sighed and asked, "Kai, are you sure there's nothing else you can do for this carrier?" The mechanic shook her head, and the Gerudo Sky Knight sighed and said, "Fine. I'll start loading up the Viper." The Storm Hawks looked at her, confused. Marina asked, "Why are you staring at me like... Oh! You thought I was just going to give you directions and send you off. Well I'm sorry, but you won't be rid of me that easily. In fact, the whole squad's coming, right girls?" There were nods and "yup"s from the rest of the Desert Thieves, and Aerrow asked, "Why?" Marina looked at him and said, "Well, first of all, the Viper is the only ship on the terra that could tow your Condor to Terra Hyrule. And secondly," she smiled viciously, "Zelda has been trying to get me to visit since the last Council meeting, and this gives me an excuse to get over there. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go make some arrangements."

As Marina left, Piper asked Alia, "Who's Zelda?" Alia answered, "She's the Hylian Hornets' Sage. She's very stuck-up, and she and Marina loathe each other, although Zelda's too polite to admit it. Oh, and Zelda's married to Link."

"Link?" asked Aerrow.

"Link," answered Naboroou, who had just entered the conversation, "The hero of the Seven Years' War, the man who killed Ganondorf, one of Marina's closest friends, and Terra Hyrule's Sky Knight."

"Wait a minute," said Junko, confused, "if Marina and Zelda hate each other, why does Zelda want Marina to visit?"

"Because," Naboroou explained, "The Hylian Council has been debating... certain subjects very actively lately. Marina is the head of one side of the argument, Zelda on the other. I think Zelda is trying to get Marina on her side." On that note, the rest of the Desert Thieves left to get ready to leave, leaving the Storm Hawks alone.

"Well?" said Aerrow. Finn, looking as confused as Junko had earlier, asked "Well what?"

"Do you think this is a good idea?" Aerrow explained.

"I think we're all doomed," Stork put in. Finn said, "Well, you always think that, Stork. I think this is awesome! It's an entire terra full of kick-butt hot chicks! What's not to like?" Piper scowled at Finn and said, "I'm not sure about this. Did anybody else notice that Marina never explained what happened after she decided to break her terra's alliance with Cyclonia?"

"So?" said Finn, "She got interrupted. It happens."

"That's not my point!" snapped Piper, "My point is..." Aerrow cut her off, saying, "Well, points aside, I think going with the Desert Thieves is our best choice at the moment."

"More like only choice," muttered Stork, while Piper said, "Which is why you agreed." Then Aerrow noticed something.

"Junko," Aerrow said, "You've been kind of quiet. What do you think of this whole thing?" Junko was looking out the window. The Wallop pointed and said, "Look."

Marina was standing in the main outdoor area making loud chittering and screeching noises. The Storm Hawks, naturally, thought this was a little odd. Suddenly, something black with wings flew out of a niche in the wall and perched on the Gerudo Sky Knight's shoulder. It was a slightly-larger-than-usual bat. Marina listened as it seemed to say something in her ear, then talked to it.

"Well, that was freaky," said Stork

SCENE BREAK

About half an hour later, the Storm Hawks and the Desert Thieves were all loaded up on the Viper, the Thieves' carrier, which was towing the Condor toward Terra Hyrule. Marina was explaining some important things visitors should know to the Storm Hawks, with occasional comments from all the Desert Thieves except Kaida, who was piloting.

"So," Marina was saying, "The Hylian Sky Knights usually get together once a month for Council meetings unless something important comes up. Aside from that, interterra visits are usually just casual, but since I'm bringing the first visitors to the Hylian League since before the Seven Years' War, I'm sure there will be big important-looking things going on to impress you. Now, is there anything I need to clarify?"

"Yeah," said Junko, "What kind of big important-looking stuff?" The Gerudo Sky Knight shrugged and said, "Oh, fancy dinners, possible Council meeting, that kind of stuff."

"Possible Council meeting?" asked Piper.

"Not a real one," said Lia over her shoulder as she worked on something, "Just a welcome-to-the-Hylian-League, nice-to-meet-you type of thing."

"And you're sure the Hornets' mechanic will be able to fix the Condor?" asked Aerrow.

"Well, let me put it this way," said Marina, "If she can't fix it, no one can." Suddenly, Kaida could be heard shouting, "We're in sight now and will be landing in a few minutes!"

They had reached Terra Hyrule.
