A/N: I've decided to change it to M, mainly because I don't want to have them take it down. Next chapter and following chapters are the main reason, lot's of violence and gore, and dark themes. I've had some people ask when the Zelda characters will be coming in, well here is the first chapter with the legend of Zelda characters, we won't see them again for quite a while after this so enjoy.

Chapter 3: Ollivander's (not the one you think)
'Not good. Oh not good at all.' He was going to get it for sure. The mark on his hand glowed brightly, and as to the reason why it was doing that, only a few knew. The Princess was one of them. The boy age seventeen, with a shield on his back along with a small pack, a sword in his satchel and a green tunic was known by many. He had helped save the land many times, not just the land he was in now, but many others as well. The Princess had sent him back in time after his banishing of the future evil, it was to relive his childhood. A lot that did. Almost as soon as he returned he got caught up in one adventure after the next. First there was the land Termina and Majora's Mask. A Mask that broke and the spirit was freed, luckily some of its insanity was left behind. He saved Termina from a moon. Yes a moon, if you can believe it. Skullkid had gone crazy all because of the mask, when he was freed he went with him back to his original land and surprisingly enough he traveled with him for some time. Only one person in all of Hyrule and neighboring countries was strong and courageous enough in both body and mind to free the land from the evils. After Termina he went about ridding the land of some small monsters and a few larger ones as well. The enemy who had been imprisoned had left behind a few things incase he did lose. Link couldn't remember how many times someone tried to free Ganon, it seemed like every minute there would be a new foul entity trying to either take the land, destroy it, or release Ganon which would have been even worse. Link was once known as the hero of time, in a way he still was, but never going back more than six weeks, for it could harm the process of time in more ways than one. The Ocarina was safely hidden away in the temple that Volvagia once lived. Volvagia a dragon resurrected by Ganon was at the moment quite dead, but he had been resurrected again right before Ganon had been sealed away, so he had to fight the dragon once more. The second time he fought him, something strange happened, for right when link was about to deal the finishing blow, he changed. Claws retracted, a new layer of skin began covering him, his legs grew longer as well as his hands, his head began to shrink and when it was eventually done a man was standing in Volvagia's place. Link was surprised, and Volvagia used that against him, apparently he could still use fire, and was quicker and more agile than in dragon form. Eventually however he beat Volvagia once again, and Volvagia was humbled, he swore to keep the Fire Temple safe from all intruders, and he did. He never went back on his word, and he was eventually entrusted with guarding the Ocarina of Time, only because the sages,(excluding Darunia a goron) thought that he was trustworthy. Thus it was he came to guard the Ocarina and since he was immortal unless killed, would guard it for the remaining years of his life, until either Link returned or he was killed by intruders. Link checked on it periodically, making sure it was still in Volvagia's grasp, it wouldn't do good for beings of evil intent to try to steal it, which quite a few tried. One of which was Beorn one of Ganon's greatest servants, and one of the most powerful, Link eventually stopped him and peace was restored, he had been the closest to finding and using the Ocarina.
Link had just returned from another trip in Termina, defeating the witch Gandia, who was Priestess of Chaos, gifted with the power of chaos from the one known as the God of Betrayal himself. Next to Ganon and Beorn she had been his toughest foe, as of yet. He had returned and headed back to Lake Hylia where he had created himself a home on the opposite bank, but never made it. He had been intercepted by Kaepora Gaebora the sage reincarnated as an owl, with a message from Zelda to meet her and the other sages at the Temple of Time. Link remembered everything of what happened in the past reality, but the other sages hadn't so he eventually earned there trust back and not long after they began getting their memories of the past reality back and everything having to do with Ganon. If Zelda thought that something was happening that would need the involvement of all the sages, then Link knew it couldn't be good. Link continued to walk to Hyrule town nodding at the two guards positioned at the gate, they nodded back and let him through. It was almost night and as Link was walking away and into town he could hear sounds of rumbling, a slight splash, and knew that the guards were rising the gate. Link headed into town and the merchandisers and shoppers turned to stare at him whispering to each other quietly, and talking about him behind his back. Link moved at an abruptly quicker pace, the people of the town began to head indoors and Link decided against entering the temple too late at night, he doubted all the other sages were there anyway, Nabooru and Darunia would take at the least amount possible six days, Darunia unless he took a shortcut would take roughly three weeks. Nabooru, if she came from the spirit temple would take at least two weeks, and that was only if she didn't get lost like she occasionally did in the Desert, another place Link had made a slight home. Princess Ruto would take probably five days, Impa would probably already be there with Zelda, and Link's old childhood friend Saria would probably just song to the temple. Link had taught her the forest malady because her being a kokori wouldn't be able to travel without dying. Normally they were close to immortal, and stayed in child form for the whole of there immortality. If a kokori left the forest they would die. Not necessarily how they all thought, but Link didn't tell them for that reason. If they left they would die eventually through the decaying of time and age, they would grow old like anyone else, or they would stay immortal, Link still hadn't told them, because he knew of at least two kokori who would jump at the chance to leave the forest. The other sages he was almost positive, that they would forget to song and travel normally, most forgot the fact they were actually sages. Link just hoped he wouldn't have to save Nabooru, because although she was a master thief, she couldn't follow a map to save her life.
Link shook his head thinking of the sages, it was amusing really to see the faults many of the sages had. Nabooru and directions, Darunia and water, Saria and everywhere but a temple, Ruto and extreme heats, Impa, best not to say, and Zelda and Shiek. Link had quite a laugh when he had told her she had once dressed up as a man. Zelda had just sniffed and said 'I probably had a good reason.' For whatever reason she couldn't remember anything except for being princess Zelda and the beginning and final battle, the seven years in-between were a blur. Link snapped out of his thoughts long enough to wonder where to go next. He had an option going to a game shop, the castle, or a regular shop. In the end he decided upon heading to one of the best stores for magical items, and after being done he could then head to the castle to talk with Zelda and wait for the other sages.
Link round back behind the alley on the right side, being careful to lure the dogs away with a bit of meet, if there was anything the owner hated worse than anything else, especially within his shop, it was dogs, chickens, and cats. Link came to the shop it was a small dusty old shop. The windows were slightly cracked and the inside wasn't able to be seen from the outside. Above in shining gold letters readable only to a select few, it said 'Ollivander's Marvelous Goods' Link opened the door and stepped inside. Like the outside which looked quite rundown, the inside was quite similar, but Link knew better, it was to keep up appearances. Dust was collecting in the corners and on the small wooden chair in the center. Link had met Ollivander a little bit after the whole fiasco with Majora. Countless of times he had bought items from Ollivander, whose business had begun to skyrocket when Link began coming. He had given Link invaluable works of his, most magical, and Link had used them against quite a few of his enemies. He had even created a gold skulltula finder, and although they are quite dangerous, Link had managed to kill most of them, and the Malfo family was almost totally restored to normal, as well as the other few individuals who had been cursed, not excluding the ones in Termina. The side effect for being turned back to normal was the extreme paleness, and the slight almost spidery silk hair, he only needed three more from Hyrule, and six more in Termina before he would have killed all the gold skulltulas, at least until someone else is dumb enough to get cursed.
"Can I help you lad?" Link was jerked out of his thoughts by the whispery old voice of the owner, and Ollivander himself.
"Oh, sorry Olly, just thinking of how much good you've been able to accomplish through me. I was wondering if you had anything new to show me? That cloak came in quite handy against the latest evil I've faced."
"It has had it? Well, I might have something for ye. It all depends on two things. Wait just a moment." Ollivander then stepped around Link and shut his door putting a closed sign on it and locking it firmly, he then went to the window and covered it with some blinds and quickly made sure it was impossible for anyone to see what he was about to show. After quite a bit longer, Ollivander stopped and turned back around and began walking behind his counter, he gestured for Link to follow him.
"What's this all about Olly, it must be quite special if you're doing all this for secrecy." Link said quietly.
"Don't call me Olly. And yes, this is my pride and joy, wait here and I'll get them." Ollivander said before slipping into the shadows of his store and vanishing from Link's sight. A few moments later he returned with three, (four counting the one in his pocket) long rectangular boxes, he set them down on his counter and then withdrew the box in his pocket.
"What is it?" Link asked curiously.
Ollivander ignored him and preceded to undo the lid covering for the box and Link saw… a stick.
"Uh? Olly? You're pride and joy is a stick?" Link asked a soon to be irate Olly.
"STICK! Why this is no mere stick! This my boy, is a WAND!" Ollivander shouted angrily and surprisingly happily.
"Are you sure? It looks like a stick to me?" Link said and seeing Ollivander's face quickly added. "Eh, err nice…stick."
"Come now my boy. You need to remember. Remember that map of the castle I gave you? The one that showed where and what the people in it were doing? Besides being surprised I had a map of the castle you were amazed to discover it was actually moving. And the sketch of the two wolfos I had you buy from that artist, you were just as surprised as the princess was when you saw it move. This is no different. This is a wand, the name is after a relative of mine Wally Ollivander, he used to collect sticks, quite an oddball in our family, and that is saying a lot." Ollivander continued to ramble on about his family history, before Link had finally grown his curiosity and wanted to see what the stick…wand actually did.
"So, what does this sti-wand actually do?" Link said interrupting Ollivander who was going on and on about his great cousin Hector who invented bifocals. Ollivander looked at him in a mixture of anger and amusement.
"Do? Why it doesn't do anything. In fact you could go as far as saying it doesn't do a thing."
"It doesn't do anything?" Link asked now definitely referring to the wand as a stick, albeit a fancy one.
"No of course not, it does help though." Ollivander said thoughtfully to himself, irritating Link even more.
"Help what?" Link said through slightly gritted teeth. Ollivander noticed this however.
"There's no need to be angry."
"Well if I'm angry it's your fault." Link said under his breath and hoped Ollivander didn't hear him. He didn't, or at least if he heard he ignored him.
"Watch, this is my own, I don't use the other three I made for this one works better for some reason, I think there is one special wand for each person. This is my own wand 10 ½ inches, Lost Woods Oak, with ice-wolfo hair as it's core. Now watch." Ollivander preceded to do a spell Link knew quite well, Din's Fire, and Link never questioned how Ollivander knew these, he just did. However instead of randomly scorching both his shop and Link it didn't do what it normally did and instead of being wild and uncontrollable, it shot out of the 'wand' and it was controllable, as well as more powerful, and it wouldn't injure allies. Link stared in amazement.
"H-how? That was…amazing. Certainly, Definitely, Absolutely." The last three words were words used most often by skullkid.
"Not just a stick is it?" Ollivander said with a smile gracing his mouth.
"No. It isn't. But you said it does nothing, and yet it made the spell both controllable and more powerful, how?" Link asked.
"Easily. It is a focus point, sure you could do the magic otherwise, and risk injuring an ally, a building, or even yourself. With this it focuses the magic into the wand thus making it both more powerful and effective. I have three left, I was planning on giving yourself, Zelda, and Nabooru one of the three I have left. Impa will probably get the next one I make along with young Griffith" Ollivander knew all the sages, but the only ones who actually bought anything were Zelda, Impa, and Nabooru, the rest usually couldn't use anything he made. He and Nabooru were distantly related, seeing how Ollivander's brother was Nabooru's father, thus meaning Link, Zelda, and Impa were able to buy some things for much cheaper if Nabooru was around. He gave her discounts, thus making it so the others also got discounts.
"Really? How much?" Link narrowed his eyes at Ollivander, if one thing was certain it was that Ollivander didn't part with his special made items easily. It cost quite a bit on average to get something, Link thought that he would probably sell the new item for a few thousand rupees. He wasn't disappointed.
"Well, this will definitely not be as cheap as some of the items you've gotten before. How much you have on you?" Ollivander asked sneakily.
"Oh no you don't. If I tell you, that's how much you'll want for it, I know not to do that now, although I do admit, that the cloak came in handy."
"Oh, oh fine. How about nine-thousand?" Ollivander asked innocently.
"What! 9,000! Just for a stick with special powers? You must be out of your freaken mind."
"Kidding, only kidding. Jeez can't anyone take a joke around here? You know what I'll sell them cheaper than I was, Nabooru will get the same price so if you don't believe me just wait for her, but how about three-thousand and twenty-five?" Ollivander said and although it was quite high, he knew that Link, Zelda, and Nabooru both had five-thousand on them at all times, Link usually had even more. He and princess Zelda were probably the richest people in all of Hyrule, although Link didn't often spend it, he kept if for products, tolls, and the like, only used it for safety, weapons, or bribery. His house didn't cost a thing because he made it instead of bought.
"Fine. I'll pay, you don't mind if I wait before the other two get here, it's not that I don't trust you, it's just that-"
"You don't trust me." Ollivander said with amusement as Link shrugged sheepishly. "I understand, but let's find out which one is your wand first." He then handed Link a box and took out the 'wand'. "Here try this one. 11 ½ inches, Lost Woods Mahogany, with Skulltula fang as core." Ollivander watched Link who just stared back.
"What do I do?" Link asked finally.
"You wave it around of course." Ollivander said like it was the most obvious thing in the world.
"Of course." Link said under his breath. Link then began waving it around only to discover that Ollivander had snatched the wand from his grasp. "Hey, what's the big idea?"
"That isn't your wand. Here try this one. 14 inches, Desert Birch, and Dodongo scale." He handed the wand to Link. And Link had barely lifted it into the air when Ollivander snatched it back. "No good. No good. Here try this one. 13 ½ inches, Lake Hylia Maple, and dragon heartstring."
"This is the last one right? What happens if it doesn't work? Will you work on one for me?" Link asked Ollivander.
"Of course, if it doesn't work, we'll see where to go from there. Now go ahead wave it."
Link waved the wand, and to his great appointment Ollivander snatched it back.
"Shame. I have two more wands you can try, I was planning on saving them for myself, but I can always take one of the others. Wait here while I go get the last two, if it works for one of these last two, the price will unfortunately skyrocket to close to seven-thousand, the cores for both of these are extremely rare." Ollivander said drawing out two more rectangular boxes and setting them on the counter. He uncovered the lid of the first one and took out the wand and handed it to Link. "11 ½ inches, Birchwood, and phoenix feather. Don't look at me like that. I know how rare a phoenix is, I've only seen one in my whole time here, I've heard you've seen three, quite special that means you are. If you should ever happen to see another, see if you can get me a feather, I'll pay extremely well for one. Now go ahead try waving it around." Ollivander said happily.
"Alright, but maybe they just don't work for me. I'll try any ways." Link then waved the wand, unfortunately nothing happened and Ollivander snatched it back quickly.
"Well, one left to try, it's curious, you may be able to use this one. The first wand I ever made, three years ago, the core however isn't like the rest of them, where as these are from a animal, the other is not. Here try this, if it doesn't work, maybe one of the wands in the future that I make will. This is 12 ½ inches, Holly, and blue fire."
Link gaped. "Blue fire? How? That is only found in that cave during the winter, and ever since the horned ice dragon made its home there it's been inaccessible."
"Ask me no questions and I'll tell you no lies." Ollivander said and handed the wand to Link. Link immediately felt a sudden warmth in his fingers and as he raised the wand and brought it down a stream of gold shot out at the end like fireworks, lightening up the room and Ollivander clapped happily and cried out. "Oh, yes, bravo. Yes, indeed. Very good. So glad it worked, sorry about the price. You're willing to pay still?"
"Of course, can't believe it worked. You truly are gifted at creating things like this, it's amazing really what you can create, first the skulltula finder, then the cloak, and now this! I thank you sincerely, I'll be coming back with Zelda and Nabooru, probably not for another week or two though. You know how Nabooru is." Link said to Ollivander while taking rupees out of his wallet and handing him over half, totally forgetting that he wasn't going to pay him yet.
"A week or two? No you shan't. You'll be coming here tomorrow morning. With Zelda and Nabooru, Impa as well, she can see if one of the wands I have is suitable to her. I sent Nabooru a notice over three weeks ago to head to Hyrule castle, they were going to stop here tomorrow, it's all ready possible. Nabooru came through here early yesterday morning, pick pocketed one of the guards, she never learns." Ollivander said sadly.
"No she doesn't. So I'll see you tomorrow then." Link said heading out the door, pausing slightly to here what Ollivander yelled at him.
"I have one more thing to show you, all four of you to be exact, so don't try getting out of it. And don't show the wand to anybody!"
(exit shop enter castle)
Link walked away from the shop quickly, it would be terrible if his enemies ever found out about Ollivander, it was still quite late, and he decided to see if they had accommodations at one of the inns. He was kicked out almost immediately, just upon sight. Mainly because it was over crowded, and they knew if he had to he could get into the castle, they always had a room available for him. So Link walked quickly to the gates of the castle. He hoped it was a guard who knew him, he really didn't feel like sneaking in. He was in luck for his good friend Wesley was on guard duty. Link walked right up to him and discovered that he was half asleep. Link decided to have a bit of fun.
"OFFICER WESLEY, WHAT DO YOU THINK YOUR DOING? SLEEPING ON THE JOB! YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELF. WAIT UNTIL I TELL THE KING. I GUARANTEE YOU'LL BE OUTTA HERE BEFORE SUNRISE!" Link yelled in a voice sounding exactly like an angry Impa's would. Wesley woke up right away and began groveling on his hands and knees eyes still shut, bowing before Link trying to offer forgiveness. All of the officers were slightly frightened of Impa and bowed down to her every whim. It was a few moments later that Wesley actually realized that the person he was bowing before wasn't actually Impa, but someone in a green tunic.
"Link." Officer Wesley growled angrily.
"Hey, I wasn't the one, who fell asleep on the job. Did you see your face, oh it was priceless." Link said cracking up.
"That wasn't nice." Wesley grumbled, no one could ever stay angry at Link, it was just not possible.
"You're just lucky it wasn't Impa. She would've skinned you alive. Be thankful that I was able to wake you up before she went on her rounds."
"I guess so. So what do you need, or want?" Wesley asked Link, who tried to look innocent.
"What makes you think I want something? Can't I just hang out with one of my best buds?" Link asked in a hurt voice.
"Oh, you're pathetic." Wesley cried out.
"I know. Actually I need information."
"What type of information. You know Officer Finn would probably be better, or any other officer. I mean come on. I have twenty-six siblings and you pick me? What did I do to deserve this?"
"I just need to know if Nabooru has passed this way, as well as Darunia or Ruto."
"Nabooru is in the castle, as a guest, I've had my wallet stolen six times since yesterday. I get it back, sure. But, I'm positive she takes a little out every time. Darunia and Princess Ruto haven't been seen yet. Sorry. Now leave."
"That's okay. I need you to open the gates for me. Business in the castle."
"Would that business happen to be with a certain princess?" Wesley asked slyly.
"Yep." Link answered without thinking.
"Well have fun, you're one lucky dog, you know that? I mean the princess? Man you must be-"
"No not that way you sick man." Link said cutting Wesley off and quickly heading through the gates that he had just opened, hoping beyond hope Wesley hadn't seen him blush. He hoped the guards at the door wouldn't be as bad, he was the youngest Wesley, at age seventeen, and was also relentless with his relationship with Zelda. Not that there was a relationship mind you, but that didn't stop Wesley from thinking there was. He and his twenty-six brothers, along with the Wood twins had tried to get the two together a lot. Most of the guards on the castle grounds were Wesley, there were three who were not, Officer's Finn and the two Wood sisters. Officer Finn was the only one who didn't try to get the two together, that's why Link was hoping Officer Finn was in charge of the Palace Doors. As he stayed out of view of any Wesley siblings, he got near enough to the doors to discover who it was guarding them. He found to his great displeasure that the Wood sisters were guarding it. They were worse that the Wesley siblings by far, if only for the fact on his first visit, they had caused him to get lost, and when they ended up being in charge of showing him a tour they showed him everything on the bottom floor except for the side Link's room was, as well as the Kitchens, Impa's room, and Zelda's. They showed him to his room and Link found out that it wasn't his room, but a broom closet, and they locked him in, who knew how long he was in there. They also didn't show him where a bathroom was. Eventually they came to a realization that he and the princess liked each other, they came to that conclusion, it being totally false of course, and that was when the real trouble had begun. Since most of the palace, except for the bottom level wasn't shown to Link, thus making it so he walked in on Zelda taking a bath in two different bathrooms twice, he walked in on her changing once, and then once again, by a stupid passage way in his room that led to the bathroom, Zelda's room, Impa's room, and the garden. Link had a good idea who picked the room for him, and never used the passageway again except for the bathroom and that was only late at night when no one else would be using it or come in on him. Link was quite tempted to go in the secret way, but then he would have to hope he wasn't seen by any of the guards, for they would automatically either assume the wrong thing or send him the opposite direction. In the end he decided to face the twins wrath.
"Good evening ladies." Link said mockingly.
"Why it's the fare prince, come to-"
"Spirit away the princess."
"For a night of-" Link stepped in before they said what the night included.
"Not this time. I'm just going to head to my room, the inns full, then I'll speak with Zelda and Nabooru in the morning. We have some things to discuss."
"I doubt there will be much talking." The twins giggled.
"I'm not even going to try to say anything to that comment."
"So it means-"
"You will."
"Augh. Shut up and let me in."
"Can't do that.
"Terribly sorry."
"What do you mean can't do that. Let me in!"
"Now, now. Don't fret."
"Tell us something and we'll let you in."
"Damn the two of you. I know what the question will be. No, no we have not. And will not, so quit asking."
"So you won't use safety?"
"You could get her pregnant ya know?"
"What? That's not what I meant!" Link sputtered both angrily and face turning red due to embarrassment.
"We know Linkie-do."
"We just like seeing you angry."
"Will you let me in now?" Link asked angrily.
"NO." The twins both said. They were both eighteen, twins, pranksters, and two of Link's worst enemies.
"What? Why not?" Link said through gritted teeth. It would be day before he actually was able to enter the castle.
"You never answered."
"The question."
"What is the question then?"
"Do you like Zelda?"
"Oh course I do, she's one of my best friends. Now let me in."
"We never finished the question." Both of the twins said.
"Then finish it." Link growled.
"Do you like Zelda-"
"As more than a friend?"
"More than a friend?" Link asked, thinking in his head. He didn't understand the question, he had been deprived of parents when he was growing up so was somewhat afraid of affection, but how to answer this without hurting Zelda? She was his best friend, that's it! Yes he liked her more than a friend, she was his best friend. Link grinned at the thought of being triumphant over the twins.
"Ooh. Go ahead." The twins said.
"I didn't answer your question and now you're just letting me in? What are you up to?"
"Nothing." The two of them said in innocent voices.
"You answered our question now get in, or we'll keep you out."
"Yeah, and I can tell you a few stories I've heard. Romantic stories of course." Link was in and out of sight before she had gotten to the m.
A/N: A little shorter, than it normally is, but that's just because another chapter will be out in a few days. We will return to these characters a bit later, when we return to these characters it will be a few weeks later and all the sages have arrived, we've seen at least one sage already before this chapter, and quite a few things become known in this that will effect quite a bit in a few chapters. Next chapter is surprise, possibly the battle, possibly not. The battle will be in one of the next two upcoming chapters, and both will hopefully be up before Saturday. I hope you enjoyed, and things definitely take a turn for the worse in the battle, at least one character death, and the trial of Tom Marvolo Riddle and his followers shall also be quite soon, after the battle however. For those who don't or can't tell by reading this chapter it will be Link/Zelda, and Nabooru will meet someone as well. Hope you enjoyed again and please read and review. Thanks for R&R.
