Darkness...that is where the world began. Nothing moved, nothing was heard, nothing was all that existed.

A light. A small, tiny spec of light. But that was all it took.

The gods expanded upon that spec of light, creating something from nothing.

Din, Goddess of Power. With her dances of earth, she created the molten planets. With the melody of her movement, she created the seasons.

Nayru, Goddess of Wisdom. With her Harp of Time she played music, creating balance and order. Her serenades made time flow in a stable manner.

Farore, Goddess of Courage. With her infinite number of Secrets, she created all living creatures. Her love for nature created the world's animals and denizens.

The three Goddesses, their work done, departed for the heavens. The place they left is now known as 'The Sacred Realm'.

Within the Sacred Realm lay a treasure of heavenly quality. It is what was left behind by the three Goddesses. A power so great, it led the world in peace for many generations.

But peace never lasts. For Man is greedy. And greed leads to jealousy. Jealousy leads to war, and war leads to death and decay.

The Goddesses know this, and summon a special 'Chosen One' whenever he is needed.

Be it from a forest.

A small, humble island.

Or even from a village of shadows.

A hero will rise to repel the evil.

A hero that travels through time, defending Hyrule from all manner of evil that no species can fight alone.


Naruto stood up, creaking his stiff joints before looking at Faron once more. The Light Spirit smiled at the blonde and nodded to him.

"It is time, young Naruto. The goddesses have summoned their 'Chosen One' and you must answer their call. All creatures have a purpose, no matter how small they are." Naruto felt he was not the one Faron was referring to. He looked down, noticing his shadow. "Go to the temple in the Northern part of the Forest. It is time for you to begin your journey." Faron said as he curled up around the golden sphere, slowly disappearing.

Naruto slowly began walking away from the spring before noticing Midna appear next to him. However, she was once more a shadowy silhouette. Naruto raised an eyebrow at this but shrugged. She could do whatever she wanted. He was finally back to normal, so he really didn't care.

"So, now that everything's back to normal, we can get down to the REAL thing."She grinned evilly, rubbing her hands together. Naruto was suddenly very aware of himself, as the cold shiver down his spine told him so. "I told you before, if you're useless, then I'm leaving you. However, seeing as you're not as useless as you seem, I'll keep you around for awhile longer. Now, you remember the deal, right?" Naruto nodded his head, though he didn't like the idea of it all.

"I help you find what you're looking for, you'll help me find what I'm looking for. Right?" Naruto said crossing his arms. The imp grinned.

"I'll stay as your shadow, getting bits of insight when you don't realize it, since you seem so dim." Naruto hissed at the imp. "Ah ah aaah."Midna waved her finger. "None of that. You're going to have to do what I say, remember?"

"That doesn't mean you can insult me right of the bat shrimp!" Naruto growled.

"Whatever."Midna said rolling her eyes. "First thing's first. Get to the Forest Temple!" She said before returning to his shadow. Naruto took a deep breath before tapping his boots on the ground, trying to get used to them. He felt a small pulse of energy coursing through his foot before remembering what had happened back at Hyrule castle. He grinned evilly as he put his hands together into a sign they seemed to know instinctively. He couldn't help the smile that made its way to his face as he felt the energy flowing through him. Pulling apart his hands, he decided to hop, figuring he would see how high he would go. He was quite startled when he suddenly jumped a good 10 feet in the air.

'Okay, note to self, don't use too much Chakra.' Naruto thought as he landed easily. He stopped as the word echoed in his mind.

'Chakra?'

The name sounded familiar, like he said it every day. Yet, he had never said it until now...so why did it sound so familiar? He began to jump from tree to tree, just as he had done in his memory, before his mind began to wander. A lot of things had happened since he lost Epona and the others were kidnapped. He had been turned into a Fox, met a strange Imp, a Princess, and even a Guardian of Light. He was told the story of a hero that he now had to be, and he now had new clothes, said to be sacred.

There were so many questions he had now, but who was he going to ask? Faron? Sure, he knew quite a lot, if his story had said anything, but he doubted he knew the answers to his questions. At least, that's what his instincts told him. Nowadays, it seems they were the only thing he could rely on.


As Naruto walked up to the temple once more, he knew something was wrong. The marsh a little ways back was completely fogged up with poisonous fumes, which was just SO much fun to get through. If he hadn't had that oil lamp that Lee had given him, he'd have been in big trouble. The strangest thing was that the monkey that was captured with Konohamaru helped him get through it all.

He had just stopped to fill up his oil lamp with oil and his bottle (which he thoroughly washed before refilling) with a potion, he now stood in front of the temple where he had remembered the spin attack.

"Memories." Naruto mumbled.

"Come on already, let's get going!" Midna huffed from his shadow.

Naruto took one more deep breath and entered the temple. It wasn't like he hadn't wandered around here before when he was a kid, but there was a lot of this temple that Naruto had never been able to reach...but that was years ago, when he was still a short and scrawny little kid. Now however, he was excited to finish all those, 'exploration trips' once and for all. So he started, looking through every nook and cranny of the temple. Eventually, he found a strange bomb-spider. He had accidentally kicked it, so now it was running at him while flashing red.

"CRAP CRAP CRAP!" Naruto yelled as he ran from the, literally 'walking time-bomb'.

He skidded to a halt in front of a rock, and turned around to see it now running full speed at him. Naruto glared at the creature, waiting until it got closer before jumping out of the way, the spider-bomb smacking into the rock.

BOOM!

Naruto was thrown back by the explosion, smacking into a wall. The blond swordsman groaned in pain, his back aching before looking up and seeing pots behind the rock the spider-bomb had blown up.

'That's odd...who would put pots behind a rock?' Naruto thought in confusion. A clinking sound suddenly caught Naruto's ears, causing him to looked around, trying to locate the source of the noise. He blinked as his eyes caught sight of one of the pots jumping around. He scrubbed his eyes, trying to make sure he wasn't seeing anything before looking back to the pot. It didn't move for awhile, making Naruto wonder if he really WAS just seeing things. But after a few moments the pot started jumping around again, Naruto blinking rapidly. While he was a little worried about what lay inside of it, he slowly crept over to the pot, wondering if he saw a face pop-out a moment ago.

"He-Hello?"

"HELLO!" A voice suddenly called out from the pot.

"WHAA!" Naruto jumped back, startled from the sound.

"Is there anyone out there? Oh please help me! I'm stuck!" The voice pleaded. Naruto stared incredulously at the jumping pot before he picked it up and cracked it on the wall. The moment it hit the wall, the pot smashed into pieces and the creature inside it fell to the ground.

"Oof!" The creature grunted before it stood up, dusting itself off. It turned to the blonde swordsman before bowing to Naruto. "Thank you oh so much! It was awfully tight in there. I thought I'd have been stuck in there forever!" It chuckled.

"Uh...your welcome?" Naruto said hesitantly. This...THING looked freaky. It's face was oddly human, yet it had the body of an ostrich and the feet of a chicken.

"My name is Ooccoo. Nice to meet you!" It said waving a feathered hand to Naruto. The blonde slowly nodded his head before asking.

"Why were you stuck in that pot in the first place?"

"I'm looking for my son...He's always disappearing on me! Do you...Do you think you could help me find him?" Ooccoo asked Naruto.

"Sure."

Naruto wasn't sure what he was more shocked about. The thought of this strange chicken-ostrich thing having a child, or the fact that he so easily said yes to helping her SEARCH for it.

"Thank you! If you ever want to leave the dungeon, just let me know. I can teleport you out of here! However, once we find my son, he can bring you right back to the spot where I first sent you out of here. Understand?"

"So if I want to leave, you send me out of here; and once we find your son, he can bring me back...right?"

"Exactly!"

"All right! But uh..." Naruto stopped short. How was he going to carry her?

"Don't worry about a thing!" She said jumping onto his shoulder. "I can tell you're worried about carrying items, or me! So I'll give you a gift!" Ooccoo closed her pale eyes, standing on his shoulder in silence for a moment. Naruto wondered what she was doing before a bright orange glow appeared in front of her. Ooccoo shouted, snapping her eyes open. "HUAA!" A flash of light blinded Naruto, but when he opened his eyes, nothing had changed.

"Umm...Ooccoo? I don't think it..." He looked around to find himself alone. "Worked?" He looked in his right hand to find a medallion of sorts. It had a spiral leaf crest engraved on it. "Huh? What's this?" Naruto wondered aloud. He shook it, blew on it and even dipped it in the water, but nothing happened. From a random whim in the back of his mind, he pushed some of his chakra into the medallion and a screen of sorts appeared in front of him. It showed all the items he had in his possession.

"COOL!" Naruto yelled out excitedly.

He wrapped the medallion around his neck and continued back on his journey, soon coming upon a valley of sort, but with the wind blowing harshly. He looked across the ravine to see the bridge swaying back and forth. Better yet, it didn't look like it would hold him for long, if at all. He put one foot on the bridge, carefully pushing on it before putting his full weight on it. When the bridge didn't creak or give signs of falling apart, he carefully started to walk across. A strange sound caught his attention, and when he looked up from his starting point on the bridge, he saw a big monkey holding a strange feather-like object. His eyes widened as the monkey pulled its arm back before heaving the weapon straight at him. The boomerang, as he figured it was such by the spinning motion it was doing, sliced off half of the ropes that were holding the bridge together, but only on one side.

Naruto quickly jumped back, clasping onto the ledge as the bridge tilted to one side. Naruto breathed a sigh of relief. If it wasn't for his quick reaction, he'd have fallen to the bottom of the chasm. He swallowed heavily as he saw a few rocks falling down into the black chasm below. He didn't hear anything but the wind.

"That...was too close." Naruto gasped as he hefted himself back up onto the ledge. His hope for somehow getting across was shattered as he saw the last of the bridge collapse into two pieces. He glared at the monkey across the chasm. It began to laugh hysterically and turned around, mooning Naruto before slapping its rear-end in mockery.

"YOU STUPID LITTLE PAIN IN THE ASS!" Naruto yelled to the ape as he flipped up a certain finger. The creature obviously didn't understand him as it turned around and went back into its little hobble. Naruto hung his head as he looked at the now destroyed bridge. He sighed before returning back to the first room, contemplating on what to do next.

'Great...now what?' He thought in annoyance. Finding no answered in the first room Naruto began to wander the temple before finding a strange yet enraging sight. A monkey was trapped in a cage, surrounded by two hungry looking Bokoblins, saliva dripping from their mouths. Naruto sighed in annoyance.

"Déjà vu all over again." He mumbled, shaking his head. He crept around the monsters and found a little crevice. He settled himself inside of it, silently pulling out his sword and charging chakra into his feet.

'Not too much this time..." He thought to himself. He waited until he was sure the Bokoblins were completely focused on the monkey. They were just starting to climb the pole the Monkey was caged on when he lunged at the farthest Bokoblin, smashing it into the wall in front of him. The other Bokoblin turned to see his partner smashed up against the wall and turned to see Naruto, who had already jumped back, in mid-swing with his sword. The monster flew back before exploding in a blast of black and orange smoke. He turned to the other monster to see it had already exploded as well.

'I still don't understand why monsters explode...' Naruto sighed before turning to the pole. He took a deep breath before running full speed at the pillar, the cage on top. 'This is gonna hurt a bit, but here goes!'

SMASH!

The cage hit the floor before bursting into pieces. The monkey shook it's head before jumping upright, Naruto rolling his arm and turning to leave. As he neared the exit though, the monkey began to follow him around, causing Naruto to quirk an eyebrow at the creature. "You wanna follow me huh?" Naruto said, the monkey nodding. Shrugging, Naruto figured it didn't matter. It wasn't like he was going to let any monster attack him first. And it wasn't very long before he had not one, but FOUR monkeys following him.


Kenta: And finally, the legend is re-written.

I must say, I liked the original version, but oh well. Had too many holes in it, and it felt like it was slapped together.

I'm not a very good myth writer, but it doesn't mean I don't like them. So I hope you all enjoyed the small myth I whipped up here.

As for people who are re-reading this, ARE YOU HAPPY NOW? I FIXED IT!

Too many people are poking at me for the legend, so I'm fixing it now. The next few chapters still have to be re-written, as this chapter started as not Faron, but Ordona.

But now it's all fixed, so everybody's happy. Now good night. I'm tired...
