A Hero Of Time

"Where is the hero? Where is the one who will save us from evil? Hero of Time where are thy?"

Link Matthews woke up from his very odd dream, who was the bearer of that voice, and was she talking to me? He didn't know that answer, nor did he really mind not knowing what it meant. It had happened a week ago, when he turned 20, but of course he could have read a book about a hero, or something that would explain the dreams he was having.
"Everything happens for a reason," mumbled Link turning over in his bed to get a good look at his clock, "3:30? Man, I gotta get up at 6:00..."
Link worked as a student-teacher at the local high school. He helped out the Algebra teacher Mrs. Newsbeat. He didn't mind too much teaching, but the kids would get on his last nerves. That's what high school kids tend to do to anyone, except when the real teacher is around, then they're scared out of they're minds all together. But there were some good students, some.
Link rolled back in the position he was earlier, "Good night all." He drifted back to sleep, leaving the real world behind.

"The Hero of Time, where could he be?" asked a woman who was covered in shadows, but only the eye could see was some pink dress.
"Do not worry Princess, we will find the Hero and bring him to this world to stop the evil that wishes the power," said a guard to the woman.
"I do pray, Gra, that he will accept his destiny," said the Princess.
"It will be so my lady," said Gra bowing to her, and suddenly disappeared.
"Please save us," prayed the princess, hoping her words would reach the hero in time.

"Oh grrrrreeeeeaaatttt!!!!" shouted Link as he hurried out side to his jeep. He was going to be late, again. He set his alarm and everything but slept right through it all. "She's going to kill me!" he threw his bag into the jeep's trunk and jumped into the driver's seat, starting the car.

"I'm sorry for being late Mrs. Newsbeat," said Link entering the class room.
"Just don't let it happen again!" snapped Mrs. Newsbeat she could be a real pain at times. 'No all the times,' thought Link bitterly.
The students snickered at him; no one gave him respect here. He used to live out in the country with his parents, but then of course he had to grow up and become a man. He decided, well his father decided he should be a teacher, and here he was, still getting snapped at by a teacher, and getting teased by the students.
"Mr. Matthews, do you have em?" asked Mrs. Newsbeat.
"Have what?" he asked, not understanding her.
Mrs. Newsbeat groaned, "You aren't gonna be a good teacher if ya forget things! Where are those test you said you would copy!?"
Link slapped his forehead, he knew he forgot something. She wasn't going to let this one side.
"Mr. Matthews, I here by declare you fired! If you can't remember some darn test to copy, you have no business here, now leave!" snapped Mrs. Newsbeat pointing her finger at the door, "Now go on!"
Link gave her the look, the look of hate, she was never really nice to him nor grateful when he did something right. Link walked out of the room, only to hear snickers from the students. 'I can't wait to leave this forsaken place,' thought Link opening the door that would open him to a new life, and away from Mrs. Newsbeat and the students of hers.
"I'm looking for someone, can you help me dear sir?" asked a man from afar to a dog, "Please it is important that I find him." His clothing was of rags and newspaper.
Link shook his head, another weirdo in this screwed up town. The man looked up at him, and quickly ran up to him.
"Excuse me sir, could you help me out?" he asked.
Link smiled, "How much money do you want?" he started to reach inside his pocket for some change.
"Nah, I need no money from a peasant like ye!" snapped the man.
"Right," sighed Link giving the man an odd look, "then what do you want then?"
"I'm looking for the hero! The Hero Of Time I am! Do ye know where he might be? Fighting dragons, evil wizards, saving damsels-or or anything you can name, he has done! What do ye do?" asked the man eyeing him, "what rags of clothes you wear!"
Link was getting pretty much irritated by this old man, "I'm sorry for my so called rags, but no one fights dragons here, nor saves anyone!"
"No! You say? How can that be!?" cried the man mumbling to himself forgetting Link was there, "he must be here!"
"Listen, I don't know what you want, but I have to go now, so-"the man grabbed Link's arm.
"You cannot go! Tell me sir, is there a man by the name of Link?" he asked pulling hard on Link's arm, not letting go.
"That's my name, now if you please-"
The old man's eyes went as wide as they could, "YOU ARE THE ONE!? THANK THE TRIFORCE!"
Link looked puzzled and slipped his arm away from the old man, "But I assure you I'm not the Link you are looking for." Link started to leave but once more the old man grabbed his arm, tighter this time.
"You are needed! Ganon is back! His reign of terror is back! He captured the princess and the one!" cried the old man, "if you do not accept this, no one can defeat him and Hyrule will fall under his rule. I will show you!" said the old man then his faced changed to a very serious, "Sages of Hyrule open the light!"
Link on the other hand was thinking this was some sort of joke. He felt something happen to him, he looked down to see a blue ring form under him, and then forming around him, sealing him inside the blue light.
"You must follow the sound of your destiny, if you do not. All hope for us is gone..."
Link felt like he was falling endlessly in darkness, not sure when he would wake up again. The crazy man's voice echoed in his mind and so did many others.

"Please save us!"
"Link, where are you?"
"You shall never become what you were before, but there is still hope."
