WHEN WORLDS COLLIDE
By Katt006
This is my 2nd attempt at a fanfiction. Hopefully this one is better that my 1st. (It was a Starfox fic) My story is set in Link's time (The hero of Nintendo's Zelda series) It's a crossover fic, with Trunks and Link as the main characters. However the dragonball story doesn't coincide with the plot so the fic isn't really off the beaten track like most other crossovers. The story is set after link has sealed Ganondorf in the door of time. (On the 'Ocarina of time' game.) It should be pretty long but I hope you find it interesting! Please give me some feedback. PLEASE!
*I usually hate crossover fanfiction... so who ever thought that I'd end up writing one!? I got the idea when my best friend Samoan and I were in the cinemas watching 'Gladiator' She likes Link, I like Trunks, DING! Anyway I've gone on long enough... here it is!
(Ganondorf's re-grasp)
*Dedicated to my friend Samoan Gard
CHAPTER 1:
Strangers... standing over him, like looking shadows... Darkness and confusion warped the world around him... scared him...
It was another restless night for Link.
Navi, his faithful fairy guardian and friend perched herself at the foot of the young boy's bed. She watched him toss and turn in his sleep, being ploughed by nightmare after nightmare. She wanted so much to wake him from his uneasy slumber but when he fell back asleep it would be the same again. Besides he desperately needed rest. 'A horrible sleep is better than no sleep at all isn't it?' thought Navi to herself.
Link was only 9 years old and had only begun to have these nightmares not too long ago. Navi did a once over of the situation, However Link had been through all this before...
*********************************
Link, the young warrior who saved the land of Hyrule, which was ruled by the young and beautiful princess Zelda and her father.
The peaceful land soon had its serenity shattered when the evil wizard Ganondorf unleashed his power on the land. Ganondorf was bent on finding one thing, The Triforce. 3 spiritual symbols of Power, Wisdom and courage. With all 3 in his possession he could conquer anything.
However the princess had sent for Link who was living the life of a Kokiri. (Small children-like people who never grow up and each own a small fairy guardian who follows and protects them.) Realising that Link was in fact a Hylian, she summoned for him to help her in her conquest over Ganondorf's evil rein. Link acquired the power to travel between the present and the future. The future was bleak; Link was now a handsome young man who had the power to overthrow Ganondorf. With the help of the 6 sages (guardians of the elements) and princess Zelda, Ganondorf was defeated and locked away in the seal of time. Throwing Link back into the past as a young Kokiri boy again, with no memory of his past hero-self...
*********************************
Navi Calmly flew over Links restless young form and perched herself in his sweating palm. She buried her head between his fingers as she thought for a moment. Then the realisation hit her; it started out like this the first time... It was happening all over again...

On that same night up in the silent world of space a circular object was hurtling towards the planet at warp speed. As it drew closer it looked like a massive fireball in the nights sky. The object crashed in a large open field, creating a massive crater in the barren soil. An old man that lived in the lonely shack nearby scrambled out of his front door to see what had happened. He ambled his way towards the edge of the crater and peered over the side. He watched in awe as the glass panel of the circular object hissed open.
Out stepped a young Lavender-haired boy who looked to be around the age of 10. He was wearing a dark blue suit with black chest armour, white gloves and boots, out of the back of his suit swished a brown, monkey-like tail. The old man gasped and turned to make o break for it. But the young boy could somehow sense his movement. The boy looked up at the old man who felt a glare pang at his back. He slowly turned around to lock eyes with the alien.
The young alien boy sized the old man up. He looked to be in his late 50s, with whiting hair and a long beard. His face looked kind of like a roadmap with heaps of wrinkles lining his features. However the boy noted the fear in the old man's eyes but he also placed kindness in them too. Something that the boy had seen little of in his life.
"Uh... wh..wh who are you?" Stammered the amazed and scared old man.
The boy stepped forward and did a once-over of the impressive crater that he had left. He assumed the old man as no threat at all. "What planet is this?" he asked, ignoring the old mans question. The man took one step closer to the edge of the crater and placed his hands on his chest.
"My name is Dentre and you have landed in Hyrule," he announced proudly.
Trunks cocked his head to one side in confusion. "The planet Hyrule? You lie to me. I've never heard of it."
Dentre scratched the back of his head. "Well... what do you exactly mean by the term... planet? I live alone and I'm not up to date with all these new discoveries…" he stated.
Trunks slapped his forehead in stupidity. 'Great, I've landed myself on a planet whose inhabitants probably haven't even invented the wheel yet!' He let out a loud sigh and waved Dentre away. He turned towards his space pod and checked the monitor. "Dammit! I busted an oxygen cylinder!" he growled as he turned around to face Dentre who was still standing at the edge of the crater, despite Trunks's dismissal. "Look, I know this is a dumb question but maybe there are more civilised people on this pla…uh.. land that know what an oxygen cylinder is?" he asked.
Dentre just stared at him with a blank expression.
Trunks took that as a 'no' and grimaced, "Yeah...I thought so." He turned back to face his space pod. He climbed inside and pulled a small white lever on the right control panel. A hissing sound was emitted from the back of the pod as a hatch opened to reveal two aqua coloured cylinders. One was punctured.
Dentre was amazed. Never before had he seen such technology! Dentre waddled up to the space pod and leaned inside to have a go at the lever. He pulled it up... the hatch shut...he pushed it down... it opened again. Dentre's face soon had a huge smile on it... obviously thrilled at his new discovery.
Trunks smirked at the old man's amusement. "Never before have I seen such an old man carry on like this!" he teased. Dentre looked up from his lever pulling, a wide smile plastered from ear to ear. Trunks decided to be blunt. "Look, I know that my space pod may be the most exciting thing in your life, but I must know if you have the technology to repair this thing." Dentre half-heartedly shook his head as he continued to push and pull various other levers and buttons in the space pod. Trunks rolled his eyes and leaned against the side of the pod. He closed his eyes and frowned. Any chances of getting of the primitive planet that he had stranded himself on looked grim.
Suddenly Dentre looked up from his toying-around to stare in concern at the young alien boy who was perched deep in thought. He waddled away from the controls to stand beside Trunks. "Uh...sorry...um...boy..?"
"Trunks" The alien prompted.
"Yeah...well I kinda got carried away with your contraption," he apologised nervously scratching the back of his head. Trunks smirked again but his eyes remained shut. "Yeah, so I gather." He replied with sarcasm. His face grew thoughtful once more and he heaved out another sigh.
"You looked stressed my boy, someone as young as you shouldn't look so worried." informed Dentre placing a hand on Trunks's shoulder. But trunks moved away and gave him the 'back off' look..
"I have travelled many light-years in search of a 'planet'... or in your case 'world' to complete a mission that I was assigned. But according to the report that I received, it seems as though I've landed in the wrong place," confessed Trunks. "And what's worse is that I can't get this dumb... piece of metal crap airborne again!" His last words flared up in anger as he heaved a kick at the side of the pod. The metal gave way to form a huge dint where his foot had impacted.
"That's quite an impressive kick you got there," marvelled Dentre in a low whistle. Trunks sighed again, "yeah, but strength alone won't get me off this dirtball will it?!" The end of Trunks's statement made his voice sound desperate. Dentre picked up the tone straight away and suddenly felt pity on the young alien. "Look," he said, "How about we put all our worries to rest at the moment and go into my house, it's cold out here."
'An invitation?' He ran the statement through his mind; the people on this planet were very considerate... unlike his own race. He broke out of his deep thinking when Dentre extended his hand. Trunks looked at the hand and cocked his eyebrow. Dentre smiled, grabbed Trunks's right hand and shook it. Trunks pulled his hand away after a few shakes, feeling uneasy.
"Heh, it's how we greet each other here," informed Dentre giving an amused look at Trunks's face that was twisted in confusion. "Come on," he welcomed. Trunks hesitated a bit but chose to follow, cursing himself for trusting Sayian technology.

"Morning Link," came the greeting of Link's best friend, Swat. Link stepped down off the ladder that led from his tree-house and greeted his friend. Navi silently hovered above Link's head before greeting Swat's fairy, Toggie. They walked on a scenic trail through the forest, admiring the morning sunlight streaming through the trees. It was a peaceful morning. Link locked his hands behind his head and closed his eyes momentarily trying to block out the nightmares that kept nagging at the back of his head. But his light meditation was interrupted by the sound of cheering. Links eyes shot open to see Swat walking briskly ahead of him, trying to see what all the commotion was about. They reached a block in the trail, which was made from of Kokiri kids all huddled in a circle around a small dirt battlefield. Link and Swat pushed themselves into positions where they could both see. The patch of dirt stretched about 6m in diameter. A line had been engraved down the middle, on either side stool a Kokiri dressed in heavy wooden armour which mostly protected the torso, light wooden helmets on their heads, a small wooden shield and they both clutched wooden swords. "Is this a battle for sport or something?" questioned Link. Swat who was quickly being shoved madly about by his fellow villagers shrugged and was then pushed out of Link's sight by the crowd.
Link cast his gaze upon the two villagers standing in the arena. One was a female with flowing blond hair whom Link knew as a good friend. Her name was Shiko, her yellow fairy hovered over her head looking worried. The other was a stuck-up turd named Mido, whom Link deeply detested. They stood there facing each other about 4m apart, wrapped in armour with their swords drawn in a battle stance. A whistle was blown and they began to circle around the center. Mido lunged first and the girl raised her shield and blocked the attack. She took a step backwards and whipped her sword over the top of her raised shield only to collide with Mido's sword. Mido fell to the floor and swung his shield at the girl's ankles while still holding his sword against hers, blocking her previous attack. His shield quickly collided with her ankles, she yelped in pain but didn't stumble so Mido pulled his sword away from hers and raised his shield quickly in it's place so her sword could not strike. With his now free sword he spun a slash across her already injured ankles. The wooden sword was incredibly blunt but the force still caused some blood to draw from the wound. She stumbled backward and Mido saw his chance he kicked the girl, knocking her to the floor. She tried to raise her sword once more but Mido stood on her hand and tapped his sword onto her chest armor and smirked smugly "I win!" he declared. The kid who blew the whistle raised a red flag. "Mido is once again triumphant!" he announced. The crowd cheered loudly. During the spectacle Link had squeezed himself in front of everyone, he raced out into the battle area to his fallen friend and extended his hand. She looked up at him and smiled "Thanks Link," she said as she gratefully accepted his hand up. Mido had turned to leave but decided against it when he saw Link enter the small arena, an idea clicked and he smirked. He turned to face Link and Shiko, who had begun to wince and clutch her ankle, her hands lightly stained red.
The smug look on Mido's face was enough to anger Link to boiling point. Link clearly showed his temper in his eyes. Mido was enjoying every minute of his annoyance so he decided to push it further. "Hey Linkie boy, if you're so angry about what I did to your friend how about a challenge?" he tempted. "I've been un-defeated so far! Let's see how you fare against me!"
"Link… he's baiting you." Warned Navi flying nervously in a circle above Link's head.
Link was aware that he would be doing Mido a favor if he accepted the challenge but he wanted to let all his anger out and teach Mido a lesson, so he nodded to Mido, accepting the challenge.
