Theme Song:

To change the world!

And by myself I need to believe in what I can achieve!

And that belief has always been forever in me

This world's getting worst to my dismay~

and I simply look the other way~

No longer!

I falter no longer!

I worry no longer!

I tremble no longer!

Cause now I must choose

you gave me the courage to stand and take action

(you gave me hope I will never lose!)

One time my soul was as dark as the night

but you enter my soul with your light!

I see the sun, my heart knows no limits

Today I shall fight for the new

(I'll open up my windows to see the sky so blue~)

To change the world!

And I need to believe in what I can achieve!

And that belief will always be important to me!


~The Spirit World~

Link found himself in a beautiful serene field similar to Hyrule Field. The world had a divine thermal blue aura to it, it was proof that he was no longer in the real world. "This place is beautiful but where am I?" he said his voice softly echoing throughout the land.

"Welcome hero of Courage to the Spirit World. In this world only your spirit enters while your physical body is in a deep slumber inside the Spirit Gate." a voice echoed.

"That explains why I kinda look like a ghost. So who are you?" the swordsman chuckled

"I am the creator of the spirit trail. I am Monk Oman Au, a sheikah and a servant of the Sky Goddess. This is the Spirit World, a dimension where those deepest in your heart come to life. In this trial of strength you must fight your way through the hordes of monsters and come to me. If victory is yours so is the Diamond Star." the monk explained.

"Wait what sky goddess?" he blurted out confused.

Link knew that there were at least four that lived throughout history. But he never paid attention in history class so he just listened to the monk.

"If you shall fail your spirit will return to your body and you will be unconscious due to your spirit's injuries. Once you recover you will be able to try again in a different location. Are you ready?"

This was it.

It was all or nothing.

"I'm ready." Link said with a calm expression.

3….2….1….BEGIN!

A bright green light appeared far in the distance signaling that was where he needed to go.

Link ran full speed into the field towards the horde of red and blue bokoblins grunting and screaming at him waving their wooden clubs. The swordsman slashed at them left and right with blinding speed clearing a path through the horde.

A small red barrel caught his eye. An explosive barrel similar to the ones in Hyrule.

(One thing knight academy taught me before I left. Use the environment to the advantage.) Link thought of parrying an attack with a soldier shield.

He threw a small blade at the barrel. It immediately exploded blasting away the rest of the enemies. Quickly making his way out of the field into a forest he came face to face with two blue moblins stomping over. Link sidestepped the first one slashing its back he silently gasped as the second moblin slammed its large claymore at his shield before performing a spin attack as both monsters fell on the ground turning it a black most disappearing.

Link ran over to a small river, cupping his hands to get a quick drink before continuing. The green light was drawing closer.

(I guess I'm closer to the end.) he thought to himself.

Leaping over the river and to the end of the trial. It was a camp that was built around the tree filled with black moblins and at the top was a beautiful gray color star at the very top. Link threw seven fire arrows in the air causing the explosive barrels to destroy most of the camp. Suddenly, a black moblin slammed its giant sword against Link's back, sending him crashing into the tree. He gasped out in pain spitting up a little blood before staggering to his feet.

(I'm not gonna lose.. Not yet..I won't let everyone down.) he grunted raising his left hand.

Slowly, the Triforce of Courage began to glow restoring his broken blade. Link with renewed energy sprinted up towards the crystal stars. He wasn't going to let his friends down not after they went through so much. A as a green energy blast came out of his sword knocking a horde of them away, disintegrating them. A giant black moblin seven times bigger than normal raised up its club ready to striker. Link dodged at the last minute almost like everything was moving in slow motion as he did a quick backward slash and extended left hand. A gigantic circular green blast left his hand flying past the moblin. The monster's eyes turned completely white as it's soul left its body. The large claymore fell from its hand and disintegrated into nothing.

Suddenly, an old extremely thin Sheikah male appeared. He had a white cloth hiding his face with his tribe crest on it and white pants. "You have completed this trial and proved your worth as the Grand Stars' First Legendary Hero….In the name of Her Grace I give to you the Diamond Star." the Sheikah monk spoke in a low voice

A golden light swirled around Link as he began to leave the spiritual world.

"May the light guide your path."


Back on the volcano's peak the rest of the gang were still waiting for Link's return.

(I hope he's okay.) Hyli silently hoped. With no scientific evidence about the spirit gates who knows what's going on. Just then in a soft flash of light a familiar spirit appeared in front of her.

"Is something wrong Fi?" the girl asked

"I just wanted to know why don't you refer to yourself as your real name?" the spirit pondered

That got everyone's attention.

"As your guide I possessed knowledge of all of you centuries ago. Your full name is Hylia." Fi replied.

Everyone flinched with wide eyes as they looked at the blonde Hylian.

"Hylia? As in….Goddess Hylia?." Peach whispered in shock.

It was so quiet you could her a pin drop.

"I don't think of I am a goddess but that's what Mr. Symin thinks. To tell you the truth I really don't remember anything before I met Purah two years ago. But um...I also have a habit of introducing myself to others by using the nickname she gave me." Hylia said somberly

(She lost her memory? That's sad.) everyone thought.

The scientist began to feel very uncomfortable. She didn't like talking to others about her past especially since she couldn't remember anything about it.

Hylia wasn't even sure if her name was her real name.

Before it could become even more uncomfortable a light green spirit gate appeared as Link walked out of the gate with small cuts in his clothes but he has a wide smile on his face.

"Check it out guys!" he collapsed holding up a glistening white-colored crystal star.

"ALRIGHT!" the girls cheered

"OH YEAH!" the boys yelled.

Then Fi appeared in a flash of light. She had a small smile on her face levitation over to the swordsman. "Congratulations Hero ofor succeeding in the trial and retrieving the Diamond Star. Now we should head to the Shrine of Stars." she replied

Mario smirked adjusting his signature red cap. "Alright now let's head back-"

BOOM!

The ground was shaking violently underneath their feet as the volcano began to erupt and sprouting lava like a rushing fountain. The animals nearby were running away in fear and confusion."W-W-What's happening?! Why's the ground shaking!" Toad screamed.

"It appears that Corona Mountain is erupting." Fi said in a monotone voice.

"EEEEEHHHHHHH?!"

"My analysis indicates that it is a 99% chance that it has been the result of Bowser's cannon."

"WWWWWWHHHHHHAAAATT?!"

BOOM!

The volcano exploded once more as even more lava slipped over the sides of the mountain and an even more intense earthquake erupted ripping the ground apart. "This is bad RUN!" Mario cried.

The group ran full speed down the volcano dodging rocks left and right as the mountain continued to crumble around them. Everyone was helping each other jump over ledges and climb over fallen boulders.

"It's gonna blow!" Toad cried

"Keep running!" Daisy screamed

"Oh no!" Navy wailed

"This is gonna be close!" Link gritted his teeth

As they hurried to the base of the volcano, a blast knocked them off the cliff. Just as it seemed to be over for the heroes, two large crimson loftwings doved through the clouds catching them as they flew back to Peach's castle.


Author's Note!

And the Diamond Star was found with six more to go! So where are the other crystal stars? And who are the two other legendary heroes?

And Thank you so much for reading and please stay safe everyone!
