The legend says when evil appears the Gods summon the hero of Time. But, when Ganondorf re-awakens and destroys the Tri-Force, the Gods' powers are destroyed and the power to the true hero lies dormant in a young warrior. This warrior for many-a year has been called, Link.
Preface
Ganondorf, the King of Thieves, slowly entered the Sacred Realm. He smirked evilly, as the legendary Master Sword came slowly into view. Without the Tri-Force, the bond between the Master Sword and the Hero of Time has been broken and it was no longer protected. Ganondorf stepped in front of the Pedestal of Time, smirked once again, and drew the sword out of its sacred hold. Without the protection of the Gods, the Master Sword was subdued to evil, and was forever changed. Its shimmering white light turned black. The Triforce symbol once embedded in the Master Sword's helm disappeared, and the crest upon Ganondorf's forehead appeared in its place. The legendary Master Sword was now in the hands of evil, and all who challenge it, will fall to its power. Ganondorf began to laugh as he examined his new sword as he left the sacred realm. Ganondorf left the Temple of Time, knowing once again his dark reign will begin.
The Legend of Zelda:
Hero of Time
Chapter 1
The Power of Man Falls
Ganondorf approached the castle of Hyrule more confident than ever. The guards sighed as another commoner attempted to enter the forbidden grounds, but they did not know they were in grave danger. Ganondorf stepped in front of the guards, and they both moved their spears to block his way.
"I'm sorry sir, but you can not pass," said the guard tired of repeating himself.
Ganondorf only chuckled. Not wanting to deal with mortals, Ganondorf pushed the guards aside. Immediately, the guards dropped the gate and again told Ganondorf he could not pass.
"Fools."
Ganondorf continued walking, ignoring the guards, and then stopped in front of the barred gate. Shaking his head in disappointment, Ganondorf gripped the bars and ripped the gate clear off its hinges. In fear the guards stumbled back, only to have the massive gate tossed on top of them.
"Is that all you've got Zelda!?" Ganondorf pronounce, "This will be easier than I thought."
Ganondorf continued walking, grinning at the cowering guards. He soon entered Zelda's garden, where she stood talking quietly with her bodyguard Impa. Zelda turned to see her visitor and her face flushed into a pale white.
"Ganondorf....it's....it can't be possible."
"Hmm....It seems that the gods have left some memory of me in your generation, Zelda." Ganondorf stepped up to Zelda, but Impa blocked his way.
"You shall not hurt mi-lady Gerudo!"
Ganondorf raised his hand and simply swatted her away. Impa's body landed hard on the ground and went limp.
"IMPA!!!!"
Ganondorf continued his approach. Zelda stumbled back, and did the only things she knew to do. She summoned the power of her ancestors and raised a shield of light around her.
"Pitiful girl..."
He drew the Master Sword from its hidden sheath and Zelda screamed in shock. Zelda was enveloped in fear, as she realized that the Master Sword no longer had the power to summon the Hero of Time.
"Zelda, I will banish you to the Sacred Realm, with the same power you used on me."
Ganondorf pierced Zelda's light shield with the mighty sword and it immediately fell under Ganondorf's power. The shield turned black and began to engulf Zelda.
"And now Zelda, the power of your ancestors is mine."
The Master Sword flashed a dark light and it began to draw Zelda's power. Zelda screamed in pain, before her power was drained, and the power of the Master Sword banished her into the Sacred Realm. Ganondorf laughed again, and left the garden, prepared to take out all who opposed him.
The city outside Hyrule castle was bustling as usual. Throughout the streets, vendors were selling goods, children were played, and even thieves lurked. All was well. For many years the people lived without fear, thanks to the Hero of Time. A huge statue stood erect of the mighty warrior in the courtyard. People paid their prayers, retold the legend, and admired the Hero everyday. Hyrule was finally peaceful. After Ganondorf was banished, the races of Hyrule were free to roam the land, and now Hylians, Zoras, Gorons, Kokiri, and the rest live freely amongst themselves.
As night drew near, Hyrule market began to close down. People began shuffling out, talking with each other about their recent day. The final light went out and the people prepared to cross the soon-to-be closing drawbridge. A young Goron was the first to step on the bridge as it creaked and began to close. People began shouting and rushed to bridge, but it was too late. The massive gate slammed shut, and the crowd stood dumbfounded and confused. It suddenly began to rain and strong winds whipped throughout Hyrule. The people complained more and shuffled back toward the market for cover. A silence fell over the crowd as they heard a maniacal laugh filter in and out of their minds. Fear soon enveloped the crowd, as the storm raged on, and the laughter became clearer. Nothing was said until an explosion came from the courtyard. Someone had destroyed the monument and the people panicked. They screamed, ran, and cried. The noise continued until a dark figure approached from the courtyard. It was of a tall muscular man wearing strong armor and had short flowing red hair. A black aura surrounded the man, and he had piercing yellow eyes. The hushed crowd waited for the man to speak. Shortly, he spoke, his voice deep, filled with a wretched tone of evil.
"Akned seikas."
None of what the man said was understood. He was speaking the Ancient Hylian language, which was long forgotten. The crowd stood baffled. Ganondorf becoming ever frustrated spoke again:
"Entiad selfor niakzia."
Ganondorf stared in the silent crowd. His smirk faded into an expression of pure anger. Those pitiful mortals were ignoring him. But yet, one of them had the courage to speak.
"Hey buddy, you gots something to say, or are you gunna keep talkling no senses?"
The shock on Ganondorf's face returned to his normal evil smirk. He now understood why these mortals would not speak; they did not understand his language. He summoned his knowledge and remembered a word Zelda once used before banishing him. The new world was on its way and a new language was emerging. Ganondorf now understood what she meant when he was banished. The word she used was:
"Die."
Gasps flooded the market, but soon turned to laughter.
"Yea, right, you and what army!? Some of Hyrule's strongest men guard these streets. They would crush a weakling like you."
Ganondorf vaguely understood what this meant. Tired of the language barrier he approached a young scholar name Zetas. He put his hand upon Zetas' head and, using his newly obtained power from Zelda, began to absorb the scholar's knowledge. Zetas screamed in agony as all his hard work was drained from him. Ganondorf now had all the knowledge he needed to understand this new world. Ganondorf removed his hand and Zetas' body dropped to the ground, mangled and life completely drained. The crowds' gasps turned to screams, as they attempted to flee. A young woman sent her child through a small hole protruding the surrounding walls. She told him to get help as the small boy ran into the darkness.
The elite guards stood before Ganondorf, prepared to take his life for his evil doings.
"You....Speak your name!" said one of the guards addressing Ganondorf.
"Ganondorf."
It was all he said before charging into the 30 sum-odd guards. Ganondorf took several blows from his foes' swords, before drawing the mighty Master Sword. Its glowing blackness sent fear into the hearts of the guards, but they still fought bravely. The guards moved close to Ganondorf, but to their dismay, Ganondorf became angry and blasted the guards back with dark energy from the Master Sword. Free from the guards' grasps, Ganondorf raised his sword into the air and began to mutter in the ancient Hylian language. Lightning began to strike all around him, as the sword's darkness grew even brighter. The guards stood up on fear, as the storm around Ganondorf raged on. Suddenly, Ganondorf's eyes shot open and were glowing yellow.
"Your energy is mine."
He pointed the blackness sword forward and a dome of energy erupted from its point. It traversed quickly spreading out hurtling towards the Elite Guards. They stood fearful as the black dome engulfed them. Bloody screams erupted from their mouths as their very souls were ripped from their bodies. The blackish souls floated around their withered owners, and then rocketed towards Ganondorf. Into Ganondorf they went giving the King of Evil even more power. The dome continued out murdering everyone in its path as Ganondorf stood, laughing, gaining ever powerful. As the last victim fell, Ganondorf lowered his sword and walked towards the gate he had closed. He raised his hand and the gate exploded and the shards whipped in every which way direction. Ganondorf stepped out into Hyrule Field viewing his new realm, but he was greeted by a massive army. The little boy who ran for help was a direct relative to the Kings, and had summoned the Hylian Militia.
One soldier, who appeared to be the General, stepped forward and pointed his sword at Ganondorf.
"Foul being, King of Thieves, and by your clothes, a filthy Gerudo. You shall pay for you destruction, with thou life!"
Ganondorf laughed.
"You think your pitiful army can defeat me? I hold in my hands the ultimate power of Hyrule and with it I shall strike you down."
Ganondorf drew the Master Sword, and the General reared back.
"CHARGE!!!!!"
The army charged forward. The general slashed at Ganondorf, but he with the Master Sword. Ganondorf snickered, as the General's energy too was lost to Ganondorf's power. The screams from the General halted the militia. The army stood in fear, staring at their Generals limp body. Yet, somehow the General survived and with the little energy he had remaining, he spoke:
"G...Ganon...Ganondorf, I have fallen to your might. But....Ev...Evil...shall not prevail...I possess t...h..e item which will lead to your demise...I ha...hav...have obtained the...Ocarina of Time."
Ganondorf flinched in shock. The General pulled out the ocarina, coughed, and put it to his mouth. He began to play the Song of Time.
"NOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Ganondorf lunged forward in attempts to stop the General's songs. But, he was too late. The General finished the song, and the power of the ocarina reacted. A glittering light surrounded the General and in a brilliant flash, the General vanished.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
The ground trembled under Ganondorf's rage. Several of the remaining soldiers fell under the quakes. Ganondorf stopped; he looked at the militia, his eyes full of pure hate. He stood up, placed his hands forward, and a ball of pure dark evil materialized.
"DIE MORTALS!!!!!!"
The ball erupted forward and rammed the militia. The following explosion shook even the Zoras in the ocean below. The smoke cleared and darkness spread throughout Hyrule. Ganondorf's reign had begun, and there was nothing the General could do.
7 years earlier......
