World of the Undead

Prologue

Knowone ever goes to the graveyard...unless their burrying someone special to them or close to them. Damp the gravekeeper died a long time ago, but no one ever showed any pity. Now back to the graveyard. Poes roam it, poes are spirits of the undead that don't go to the sacred realm. Sometimes they wander the feilds of Hyrule and on some rare case's they haunt certain house holds in Kakariko. One thing I don't want to see anymore...are redeads, why am I telling you this? It's because I had such a crazy adventure in the underworld, where demons and monsters frolock. By the way my name is Link, formally known as The Hero Of Time. But for now just call me Link.

Now...my story began when I was riding my chesnut mare Epona, through Kakariko village headed for the village Inn...Things got interesting then.

I had traveled all over Hyrule for no particular reason. I am a wanderer that seeks adventure and romance and all that stuff. Ever since my adventures in the alternate timeline I always wanted to travel and fight evil...geuss it became sort of a habit. I mean give me a break I basically went through hell and back just to save the beautiful Zelda, all that and she doesn't even remember it...well at least I think she doesn't.

The Inn was old and rugged and the sign was partically knocked off. Makes me wonder what 'kinda people work here. Slowly I walked in with my cloak over my head and weapons and sat at the bar. There wasn't anything unusual here...just the barkeeper and his attendance(and a few drunk men)." Hey I'll have a pint of Lon Lon milk." I asked the bar tender and slapped down ten ruppees." Comin right up!" He responded and headed for the back. I sighed and noticed the drunk men looking at me with death glares but I shook it off.

Suddenly one of the men stood up and walked toward me. I readied myself for a possible fight when the man stopped and sat beside me as I recieved my milk. Slowly I took a sip and placed it back on the counter." Hey you mind takin that hood off buddy?" The man said with a cracked up but very faint voice. I nodded and continued drinking my milk...who was this guy anyway?

" Persistant huh..." He pulled somethin from his pocket but I couldn't see it. As soon as he began to strike me with whatever it was I turned and powerfully clothes lined him. He flipped over my arm and fell across the counter, knocking my milk over, I gave a small grunt and noticed the rest of the men coming to suround me.

" Ok guys cool it," I said," I don't want any trouble." They laughed and broke a bottle on the table next to them." Ok I could use a small fight..." I said noticing the bartender hiding behind the counter. The first man charged at me with the broken bottle and tried to hit my head, I dodged and chopped him across the back of the neck. I turned just in time to notice the second man coming with a knife, I quickly heel kicked him and moved to the last guy.

He didn't look to skinny...but there was somethin about his eyes that got me...somethin didn't go right...I pulled my hood off and smoothed my hair back, I sure wish I had my hat." Ok what do you fools want, I am but an innocent man from the street, why do you attack me?" " I want that sword that your hiding under your cloak..." He noticed the master sword...but how...I backed off and regrouped," How do you know of this sword?" I asked with curiousity.

He just laughed, what the hell is so funny?" I wouldn't dare mess with the Hero Of Time. My name is Ajax." What is this guy a monk? He wore really weird clothes, it looked like a long grey robe with dark coverings. He wore sandles that reached the calfs of his legs and his hair was jet black." And what do you want with me Ajax?"

Ajax just stood there." Want your help in getting something back..." "And what is it that you want me to get? And whats your offer?" I said smirking. Ajax pulled out a book from under his robe and set it on a table as his guys got up from where I knocked them out and sat down. He urged me closer and to my dismay I sat down with him." This book is the book of the dead, and theres ancient artifacts that linger in the world of the dead...Well a certain demon stole my...staff, and it is also legendary. He lurks in the underworld and gaurds the gates of hell."

What the...wait a second he wants me to go to hell?" So what your basically tellin me is to go to hell and get this artifact...no big deal. Give me two days to get ready." Ajax nodded," meet me in Kakariko graveyard on the second night. That night just so happens to be a full moon." Ok this guy was freakin me out. I nodded and left the Inn.

So there you have it...I start my crazy adventure in the fires of hell...I don't know what waits for me...but I sure as hell ain't goin down there alone...who'd go with me down there? Well I'll soon think of it.

SO?How was it! I like writin these better in Links POV haha please RR so I can post somemore! Oh yeah I forgot I don't own Zelda or it's characters.
