Disclaimer: If I owned Zelda, this is what the next game would look like : )

Chapter 2! And hopefully is as long as I believe it is

By the way, the titles of these chapters are music titles, the first one was from Greenday, and today is Fall Out Boy

Oh, and the L's are there because it looks really cramped if I don't place some kind of letter or symbol there and cramped makes me uncomfortable.

Enjoy


The Take Over, The Break's Over

The words continued to hit Link worse than all the injuries he grew to avoid in his journeys, no, this was worse than anything he endured and most of these men seem to take this so lightly, as if he deserved all of this, he shook his head "Banished? Why am I being banished?"

"We already explained boy" said the sixth man with jet black hair and piercing yellow eyes that brought discomfort to Link "As grateful as we are of your heroics here in Hyrule we are afraid that your stay here will only cause tension among the townspeople and that only delays progress from reaching our time, if you love your country then you will have decency and leave"

Link frowned, this man struck him wrong with every word that came out of his mouth "That makes little sense, peace has been restored, there is no danger anymore, the people of Hyrule see me as the blacksmith that I became" he backfired, hoping that they reconsider their decision.

"I'm sorry Link, but we cannot risk this, if you were the hero you claimed to be then you'd leave without a word" the man continued "I never claimed to be a hero, not even when they gave me the title" said Link, determination in his voice, the man was about to say one more thing but was stopped by another man with blond hair that rose to his feet, his brown eyes staring at the cold yellow ones

"This is ridiculous Heimrich, we cannot continue with this!" he looked at Link and then back at the man, "He isn't a boy, he can make decisions on his own-"

"That is enough Abelard, we came to a conclusion, Link, the king has authorized us to banish you from this country, you were brought here merely to understand why, you are to gather your things and leave before nightfall, if not, you will be punished" finished the coldhearted man and before Link could retaliate, he was taken by the arms by two guards who forced him out the doors, and as he looked at the man that condemned him, he caught a glimpse of the man that stood up for him, he had a pained expression in his face "We have been damned…" Abelard concluded.

Zelda sat at the edge of the window in the dining room, unable to eat a bite; she wasn't sure why but today her stomach refused the food offered to her, she figured maybe the weather had something to do with it but a deeper feeling told her otherwise, she wished the weather would stop looking so dark.

Zelda kept looking down at the gate with uninterested eyes, but her interest flashed back when she saw something green being tossed into the mud outside the castle gates, she looked up closely and saw the green figure forcing itself up from the mud, Zelda's face went from curious to horrified "That's…" she quickly got up from the window bench and ran down the stairs and through the halls that led to the gate, but was stopped on her tracks by the guards at the last corridor "We're sorry princess, we have specific orders to keep you inside the castle" Zelda stared at them in disbelief "What? Who ordered this?"

"Councilman Heimrich" said the guard to her right, Zelda frowned, ever since her father fell ill he has taken over for her father, to her displeasure she had to let this man do as he pleased because her father had left him in charge, still believing that she was unfit to take over without a husband.

Zelda's frown deepened and turned to the nearest window to catch a glimpse of her friend leaving the castle grounds, there was something wrong and she wanted to know what.

Zelda made her way to the council room to demand a reason as to why her friend and savior was covered in mud "Ah, princess Zelda, greetings" said Heimrich as he rose from his chair "I demand to know what is going on" she said bluntly, causing Heimrich to raise a brow "Whatever do you mean princess?" Zelda crossed her arms "I want to know why the Hero of Time has been thrown out of the castle and into a puddle of mud"

Heimrich's mouth twisted into what seemed like a smile "Ah, the boy… He finally understood that he is an obstacle for Hyrule's progress, so he has agreed to leave" Zelda stared at him in shock "What!? What lies have you been feeding these men?" she growled, though Heimrich didn't seem fazed by her stares "Princess, with all due respect, I don't believe you know what's best for Hyrule yet, so if you will, let the fate of your kingdom to us" he bowed before exiting the room, not letting her say another word. Zelda's blood boiled at this man's insolence, turning to her heel she walked to her room, if they weren't going to let princess Zelda out, then she'll just have to stop being Zelda.

"Zelda?" she turned to the familiar voice by her door "What are you doing?" Zelda loosened the grip on the folded sheets in her drawer and turned to Impa "I need to leave the castle" Impa frowned "What's wrong?"

"They're trying to banish Link from Hyrule under false accusations of ruining Hyrule's future" she said, still rummaging through the sheets "I just saw Link getting thrown out of the castle, And Heimrich is involved" she continued, rummaging faster "Where is it?" she asked, more to herself than to Impa "I can't find my Sheikah outfit" she said, turning to look at the woman, Impa looked down "I thought it was suspicious when maids came to clean your room this morning by the orders of that man" she said.

"But how did he know about my Sheikah outfit?" asked Zelda, her thin eyebrows furrowed "That man knows too much to be a simple advisor… He is planning something, I need to warn Link" she finished and tried to look for clothing that resembled her outfit, realizing that she had none she tossed all her garments aside as she sat on the bed with a sigh, Impa walked to the fireplace by her left and grabbed a piece of coal "It seems he did a good work ridding of your Sheikah outfit, so we'll have to recur to more drastic measures then"

Link steered Epona to the direction of Gerudo Fortress, he wasn't about to easily obey the orders of someone that steered his very insides the wrong way, he suspected the man wanted him out of Hyrule for far more than the fake promise of a bright future, he had seen those yellow eyes before, so he had to make sure…

He was welcomed by the Gerudos as they recognized his horse and green clothes, he asked to meet with Nabooru as soon as possible and was told she resided in the Spirit Temple at the moment, he wasn't sure he had enough time to go look for her, but nevertheless climbed off Epona and started his slow journey to the desert and after what seemed like days he finally managed to arrive at the temple, he wasted no time as he ran inside in search of the sage, to his luck he found her at the very entrance of it "Hey" she greeted "Long time no see"

"I wish this was a better time for a visit" he said "I need to ask a question" Nabooru raised a brow "Ask away" she said as he motioned him to come inside "The desert winds get rough at night" she commented, Link looked at the setting sun, his time to leave was up, fortunately he didn't have anything valuable at home in case they decided to destroy it, he followed Nabooru inside the temple.

"I need to know if a boy has been born in your race" she looked at him "Link, you know the only male as of yet is still Ganondorf" she turned "Is everything ok?" Link ignored her question "And Ganondorf is still imprisoned, right?" Nabooru raised a brow "Well of course he is, if he wasn't you'd know by now, Link what's going on?" Link looked down "I've been banned from Hyrule"

"… What?" Link nodded, "And the man that did has yellow eyes, and there's only one man that those eyes remind me of" he said in a serious tone, Nabooru crossed her arms "Maybe it's just you Link, we haven't had any news of Ganondorf for a time" she said and frowned "Now tell me what's this nonsense of you being banned"

"Apparently I'm a threat to Hyrule's future" he sat down by the stairs "Most of the council people seemed to think so, though there was one who stood up for me, he even called the man by his name, Heimrich I think…" Nabooru seemed to think for a second "Sorry, it doesn't ring a bell" she said, Link looked down "I've been instructed to leave by nightfall" he said and looked at the entrance.

Nabooru stared at him "You're going nowhere, this nonsense about you ruining the future is pathetic, tell me where this guy is so I can give him a taste of my blade" she said, Link shook his head "I have to leave, I have to find out where he came from, maybe that'll give me a chance to face him when I get back" Nabooru smiled "Ah, so you're not really leaving, you're just searching for his weak points" Link smiled "Exactly"

"We searched the premises just like you ordered sir, he is nowhere to be found" Heimrich frowned "Did you check the desert?" the guard looked down and stuttered "W-We tried… But the 3 soldiers that we sent never returned…" Heimrich's frown deepened "That boy is still out there… He won't just drop dead in the desert… Search again and don't come back until you've secured the entire land!" he growled, the guard flinched and nodded "Y-Yes sir!" he said as he got to his feet and rushed out the door, Heimrich ran a hand through his head "So useless…" he said as he walked about the throne room, he sat down on the throne and looked around "Maid" he called, a maid quickly appeared "Yes, sir?"

"Go see if the princess is behaving" he commanded, the maid nodded and ran to the princess's chambers, as she turned to the last corridor she was suddenly pulled by an arm and swung against a woman's chest, her arm bound between her back and the woman's stomach, she wanted to scream but felt the cold tip of a knife in her neck "You will go back and tell Heimrich that the princess is in her chambers fast asleep, and you will return to your chambers without another word, understand?" the tip came closer in contact with the maid's neck, she slowly nodded and the woman let go, the maid quickly ran back to the throne room without looking back "Goddesses protect Zelda…" said Impa as she came from the shadows, placing her knife back in her waist.

The guard quickly moved out of castle town and into the fields, "You four, go to Kakariko Village, you go to Lon Lon Ranch, you make sure Lake Hylia is secured, you go to Gerudo Valley, and you, follow me to the Lost Woods" he ordered, the men nodded and started running towards their destination, all obeying the orders. All but one.

Taking the helmet off Zelda looked around, noticing the coast was clear she removed the rest of the armor off, revealing her darkened and slightly different Sheikah outfit "Thank the Goddesses Impa was able to give me another one" she thought, releasing her coal-darkened hair in front of her face to give her a more boy-ish look, blending into the shadows she figured she'd go look for a sign of Link in Lon Lon Ranch, she just hoped that Link hadn't already taken off.
