Well, here we go. I got bored, and in order to keep me occupied, I have made another fan fiction. Things are very interesting; for a couple different reasons, but you'll have to read on to figure that out yourself. Well, disclaimer time.
DIS-fucking-CLAIMER: I do not own Legend of Zelda... SO DON'T SUE ME! And if you do, you suck and blow!
Troubled dreams plagued Links mind as he slept, yells of pain and anguish sounded out in his mind, as his mind remembered that dark battle, flashes of thunder piercing the night sky. Link battled on and on in that reoccurring dream, trying to fix the mistake he made in that fierce battle, but no matter how he tried, the dream always ended the same, with a piercing scream, and a flash of crimson. Then he woke up in his castle bedroom, the huge room and large inheritance of rupees and the undying gratitude of Hyrule. But something was missing, and it was the one thing that had fueled his secret motive of fighting that had inevitably saved Hyrule. It was the fact that the spot besides him in bed was empty and he looked out the window, and it was morning. He sighed, and got up and opened his closet. There were his tunics, green, red, blue… and black. He reached for the black tunic and threw it on. Ill never forget what I did… He thought, strapping on his Master Sword and his mirror shield and walked out into the hallway, which was rather dim-lit for such a bright morning.
He walked past the breakfast room, and the King was sitting there, and he looked as equally sullen as Link looked. " Good morning Link. " He said, and Link looked at the ground. " Good morning… I'm sorry… " He said silently, and The King looked at him with his great fierce but compassionate face. " It wasn't your fault… " And Link sighed. " I still feel as though I should apologize… " He said again, softly, and walked past, avoiding the gaze of The King. Link walked into the castle's stable, and mounted Epona, and rode silently out of the castle grounds, and into Castle Town. There were a few people, and they waved to him, and he waved back to them, along with giving them a weak smile. They still think of me as their Hero even after the mistake I made… " Link thought, speeding up, and rode out into the fields towards Lon Lon Ranch, where Malon lived, and she, in Link's mind was the only one who wouldn't hate him for the fatal mistake he had made.
He rode into the ranch, and from the entrance, he could hear Malon's beautiful singing. He dismounted, and walked behind her silently. " Old habits die hard, huh? " He asked her, and she jumped. " Oh, Link I didn't see you there, you scared me. " She said, looking at Link, who was beaming to himself. He's been so gloomy for the last two months… I wonder how long it'll take for him to get over his problem. Malon considered it his problem, Link considered it his mistake. He thought he made it fatal mistake, but Malon thought he couldn't do anything about it, and that it was a problem that he thought it was his mistake. He just needs someone to show they care he exists now, he's so distraught over his problem. She thought. " I missed you, what have you been up to? " She asked, giving him a big hug, which made Link smile serenely. He enjoyed the fact that someone didn't secretly hate him for his mistake. Everyone had to hate him for what he did. He pulled away after hugging her back. " Oh, I've been around, helping people out… You know, playing the part of the Hero… " He said, and then he looked down. She pat him on the back. " Don't think too much now it's bad for you… " She said with a grin, and he smiled back. " I guess…" And Malon looked at the horses galloping around the corral. " Wanna go riding? " And he nodded, " Sure, why not? You can use Epona if you want too. " he said, and she smiled again. " Such a gentleman. " And Link hopped on Nocturne, a black horse with an auburn mane and amber-red eyes. She walked over to Epona, and mounted her, and the two rode out into the fields.
Malon sped ahead of Link, enjoying the wind blowing through her long red hair. " Come on, Link, can't you catch up? " She called tauntingly back to Link. Link grinned, and kicked Nocturne to make him go faster. She was almost as fast as Epona; Malon had been training her to breed with Epona for some more horses. Link was tailing her pretty well, and then, an arrow shot out of the trees, and nailed Malon in the shoulder, and sent her flying off the horse. Link stopped his horse to a halt, and unsheathed his blade and shield, and heard another loud TWANG and brought up his shield to block the arrow. Then, suddenly, out of the trees, a black-figure jumped out of the forest at him, with dual short swords, and began to swing wildly at him. Link was barely warding off the blows, each swipe smashing into his shield with amazing force. He wasn't even sure if his opponent was human or not, he was moving so fast. Link then decided to take initiative, and deflected a blow with his sword, throwing him off balance, and then following this up with a shield smash, so that the black clothed figure barely avoided the attack, but he managed to barely get out of the way, and Link was left open. Maybe now I won't have to suffer anymore, kill me…redeem me from the horrible mistake I made… He thought, not turning as the black-clad figure jumped at him again. But instead of blocking, he stood there, his side completely open for a killing blow. But the figure hesitated as he swung, and stopped the blade, but drove a fist into his jaw, sending him spiraling to the ground. Why couldn't he just kill me? Why can't there just be an end to all this? Link thought as he hit cold ground and darkness took over.
Link stirred. " Look, he's coming to! " he heard a females voice say. Link's focus was blurred, and he groaned, as he remembered the painful force of the punch delivered to him. " Well, that's good, I thought I hit him a little too hard there for a second. " Link's sight finally focused, so he could see the two. One was a female, with long blonde hair held back in a ponytail, her hazel eyes twinkling. " He's kinda cute, huh? " She said. She looked about the same age as Malon and Link, and so did the boy wearing black. " Um, whatever. You have a lot of money, my friend! " The man in black taunted. He had light brown hair, held in a small ponytail, and he had light blue eyes, and wore small round blue spectacles on the edge of his nose. He held a bag of jingling rupees. Link roared in anger. " You bastards! You better not have killed Malon! " And the female laughed. " Don't worry, we're bandits, not murderers. She's just on the opposite side of the tree you're tied to. " She said. She wore a wrist brace made for archers to keep their aim accurate, and had a huge bow, as big as her, strapped to her back. Link struggled against the ropes binding him. " What about her arrow wound! " And the girl chuckled again. " It was blunted. The most she'll have is a bruise. " And Link kept struggling. " Let me out! " He yelled, and the two sighed. " With anger like that, you'll never figure out how to get out. It's a trick knot. You just have to figure it out. Make a mistake, the rope gets tighter. " And the two began to walk away, and as they left, they left behind a piece of paper in front of him reading: " Thank you for your cooperation! - The Blackout Bandits. "
Link scowled to himself. Nothing in life for me can be easy. Want to go for a ride with my vest friend, I get attacked by bandits. Great, another blemish on my record. I just not cut out for this any more… well not since… my mistake, everything's been so much harder…Link thought, and he looked at the sky, it was almost nighttime. How long did I black out for? So that's where they get their name from… Then he felt himself yawning and falling asleep. His dreams floated back to that fierce battle…
" Link! Use the Master sword, seal away Ganon! " Zelda yelled, but her voice was lost among the thunders and the pouring rain and the roars of pain coming from Ganon. " What did you say? " Link yelled back, sword held limply by his side, pure exhaustion setting in, strands of hair hanging down his forehead and into his eyes. He turned back to Ganon. " OH SHIT! " And he noticed that Ganon had returned from his stunned state, and had charged at Zelda. " NO! " Link yelled, throwing himself into Ganon's path, shield upraised and he tried to slash at Ganon, but he smacked him aside, and with a monstrous swipe, sent Zelda flying. Link felt a surge of energy flow through him. He … just killed the one I loved… And something in his snapped, and with a strange newfound power, he jumped at Ganon, and as he brought his sword down, it erupted into light blue flames, and became a new blade, much bigger, and engraved with strange runes, and the blade's color was light blue and green, and he brought it down through Ganon's shoulder, causing him to roar in pain, and he fell to the ground again. This time, Link wasted no time, and with one slash, two slashes, and a final thrust, he sealed away Ganon. His eyes flamed a pearly light blue color, and he ran to Zelda. " Zelda… please tell me your alive, say something, anything… " He yelled to her over the rain and thunder, and she was soaked in her own blood. He held her hand and she squeezed it tightly. Her eyes were misty as she neared death. " Link… " She muttered, and he scrounged around for a potion, a fairy, a bottle of milk, anything that'd save her. She managed to lift her head up high enough to whisper in his ear. " I love you, Link. " And she kissed him, and let her head fall to the ground, and closed her eyes with a content smile. " Z-zelda? " And her hand stopped squeezing his.
Link woke up, on the ground besides the tree, yelling. " NO!" and then Malon ran to his side, and he looked panicked, and she comforted him. " It's ok Link… " And he hugged her, burying his face in her soft neck. " I made a mistake, I made a mistake, I could've saved her. Why didn't I save her? WHY DIDN'T I SAVE HER? " He yelled, and she hushed him. " Don't worry about it, it not your fault, you couldn't have done anything about it… " She said, and Malon held him in her arms all morning.
