:DISCLAMER:

I don't own Zelda or any of its characters… I own all original characters.. Blah Blah Yadda Yadda Bang.

In this fic Sheik and Zelda are two separate people. Why? Cause I can..

Sheik/OC centerd.. Although I have the basic outline of the story in my head most of it is made up on the spot. I don't have a proof reader so please forgive any mistakes that spell check doesn't pick up. Rated R for violence, gory and language (later on). Not sure if there's going to be any coupling yet. Some time after OoT, some AU.

I'm kinda new to this so be gentle.

Her home crumbled around her. Dark eyes searched the starless sky, and for a moment she tried to remember this place before. Before the war and the darkness that swallowed all. Before the flames had taken the sacred city. Deep blue eyes studied the city from under a black hood. She now stood in front of the remains of what used to be the most glorious temple this world had seen. The stairs that used to lead up to doors made of silver and gold were smashed and covered with the blood of the priestess's that once lived here. She continued round the remains of the temple, to the southern wall, her black cloak making her nothing more then a shadow. Her gloved hand traces the wall , removing the ivy that had grown over the hidden entrance. She quickly made her way into the depths of the temple, making no sound as she moved. The walls and ceiling fell around her as she walked through the darkness.

It wont be long.

After finding her way through a maze of corridors and hidden doors that only her kind would know of she found entered the sacred chamber. The room itself was small and empty, with only a stone alter in the centre. She knelt before it.

"You called for me"

The room darkened, leaving only the alter visible. A soft wind flowed through the room as three ball of light floated downwards and rested on the alter. She looked up and watched as the three balls of light transformed into three glowing figures. Red, blue and green eyes looked down on the knelling figure.

"We called you from the battle "

"Others need to be warned"

"The death of your kind will not be in vain"

Their voices warm and gentle, the words echoing in the darkness, filling the room. The comforting presences of the three didn't make the truth any easier to hear. She knew that the warriors that where fighting to the north where the last, and there ancient linage would soon be nothing more then a myth.

"This end was seen long before this sacred place was built"

"There has been enough death"

"You must travel to Hyrule and warn them of this darkness"

"If the Triforce is lost"

"All will perish"

The blue eyed figure in the middle floated down from the alter and stood in front of the hidden kneeling figure. Its hand rested on her shoulder.

"You have far to go and much to do. Destiny is something not even we can rewrite. We have created something to help you with your mission. Go to Hyrule, aid them, avenge the injustice that your kind has endured. Raise and receive this gift Nyx"

The figure rose her feet and removed the hood. Her pale skin reflected the light of the goddess before her, messy midnight colored hair hid most of her face, leaving matching eyes peering through. The glowing figure reached out and pushed the dark hair from warriors face and touch Nyx's cheek.

She closed her eyes and felt the warmth that radiated from the goddess's touch. The heat rushed through her body and soon began to tingle. The strange tingling sensation then grew into a burn. Pain shot threw her lithe form, eyes shot open to see all three goddesses before her. The other two to her left and right, each with a hand on her shoulder. Her eye burnt as tears formed in the corners of her eyes.

"The pain will stop soon"

"Go to the Temple of the Stars"

"There you will find a companion who will talk you to Hyrule"

"Warn Queen Zelda"

"Ruby eyes will aid you on your quest"

"You will see the star's again my child."

Nyx sat against the outer wall of what used to he the Temple of the Stars. Her face wet with tears as she watched the starless sky above her. After leaving the goddess's she watched what was left of the temple fall to the floor. Her body still tingled from the gift she had received. Her thin fingers felt her neck, noticing the skin felt different, then felt her face, her fingers tracing what felt like a scar that ran down her left cheek.

Why me?

The Battle cries had stopped a few hours ago. Soon they would return to burn what remained. To kill all who still was alive, to steal their souls. She rose to her feet and walked to the entrance of the Temple of the Stars. She had always assumed this to be the place she would be laid to rest, it was where she was born and named. It was where she was chosen to be a guardian, and where her kind hid when the war had begun. Now the Temple was nothing more then a pile of broken walls and shattered glass.

In front of where the stairs used to be stood a black stallion. It was larger then a normal war horse, its long black mane fell freely, gently moving with the wind. It slowly walked to Nyx, its gracefully movements made no sound. Its dark eyes meet hers and the horse lowered its head. Nyx raised an arm and scratched the horses head, causing it to nuzzle her hand.

"I take it you know the way to Hyrule" she said, her deep voice hushed. The horse's head bobbed up and down and came closer to her. Nyx mounted the horse with easy without the aid of a saddle, and held on the horse's mane. Once the animal sense its rider was comfortable it began to gallop, the beating of the horses hooves against the earth sounded like thunder as it raced through the fallen city.

Zelda's eyes shot open and searched the shadows around her. After a few minutes she sat up and rubbed her tired eyes. She had been having dreams like these since she was a child. Still she was not used to the disorientation that went along with a vision. She wiped the sweat from her face and moved to the side of her large bed, pushing her feet over the edge.

"Sheik" Zelda whispered, knowing the Sheikah would be able to hear her from the other side of her room. She searched the room, half expecting to see his red eyes glow from the depths of the shadows.

"Yes my Queen" he replied. He had heard the Queens whimpers and crept into the her room to wait for her to wake. Lately she had been having disturbing visions, so the lone Sheikah had stayed close by.

"The Sacred City has fallen."

Short yes, its only the prologue.. the vagueness is intentional (you'll see why) Reviews and constructive crits welcome.
