A/N: Collaboration of the world's greatest author (me, TheGoddessKnight) and Shinobi Kitten. We were bored. So this is what happens when we are left unchecked. So, official characters belong to Nintendo, may they be in Heaven's hands. All the OC's belong to their respective author.
This is how it's going to work. Either SK or I will write a chapter. Once that chapter is done, the author sends it to the other and after we come to an agreement on our characters and plot progression, we upload. I got first dibs on chapter one, tough luck SK.
WARNING!: This story assumes you read our stories before. That's why I decided to add some backstory in this chapter and a complete summary of the stories in question in the profile. As of yet, Shinobi Kitten hasnt added hers but keep patient, its only a matter of time.
The Clashing of Universes
Time began with the Goddesses creating the universe and the world known as Hyrule. Din created the land, Nayru created laws, and Farore created life. The creators left Hyrule and ascended to the heavens leaving behind sacred triangles known as the Triforce. The Triforce was forged by their light and left to the world below. It held the power of the Goddesses that would be called upon whenever it was needed. The three known Goddesses left Hyrule with nothing more, but there is more…
Every Goddess has their own angel, their own knight that picked up arms to protect their creator. An Angelic knight would stay by their Goddess' side for eternity, serving them unflinchingly and without hesitation. Following their Goddess' to the end, they would forever remain loyal even if it meant death itself. They descended to Hyrule when events became to celestial even for the chosen hero to handle. They left their mark on Hyrule when the Goddesses required their presence again. But there is more that isn't written anywhere and is long since forgotten…
The fourth sister, Samantha, Goddess of Love and Hate, the one who sparked emotions into living creatures, the one who gave meaning to life, and the one who kept their own Triforce for herself instead of passing it to Hyrule. Needless to say, her sisters weren't happy about that. While the Goddesses would never harm each other, the three didn't want their sister keeping her Triforce. So Samantha never joined her sisters in heaven. With love flowing everywhere in Hyrule, Samantha knew it was mistake to leave it as and made sure there was some hate in the world. Hate could've been done without if the universe never demanded balance and evil could awaken. While hate is ugly, hate provided insurance that the inhabitants of Hyrule knew how to act against evil.
So the ancient legend goes.

The Hylian Lake, a normally peaceful, serene spot. Perfect for romantic dates or just for anyone who needed to think. Yes, only if they didn't go on the same day when the Knightly-Aegis reunion, for lack of better terms, occurs. Its not like Link and Zelda have that many people to invite. Themselves and their four children don't seem that much. Six people. Not enough to cause too much of a ruckus. Factor in the Aegis clan and it's a different story.
Everyone's favorite farm girl… Malon. While Zelda and Link fall into the clichéd Princess and Hero fairy tale, Malon's life can be found in another. Malon wanted a knight to sweep her off her feet. So in came Vincent Dante Aegis II. One night, Vincent arrived in Hyrule and that was simply the beginning of what ensue to become a real war between good and evil. The arrival of Vincent wasn't by coincidence as it had been seven years to the day that Ganondorf was imprisoned. Managing to escape, Link along with Vincent had to keep him at bay until it all escalated into a winner-take-all battle.
Vincent met Malon before and their emotions for each other grew into a relationship. Bounded together by wedding vows and the lost Triforce of Love, they simply broke Link and Zelda's record for children. We can all agree that seven is more then four. They have quite a large family and Malon's eldest children each have an eye on one of Link's twins. Linka and Lance are twins, much like how Link and Lyndis (except not long lost).
To explain… Lyndis showed up around the time after Ganondorf's escape. She looked high and low to find her brother but only after she reached Hyrule did she find him. They were twin brother and sister. While their mother took Link, their father took Lyndis and both of their parents died soon after. So now they are together, and Lyndis plays the cool aunt part. Link and Zelda married before then and it wasn't for about a year when they expected their first child, a son they named Sheik. Skip ahead another year and Zelda gave birth to a set of twins, names Linka and Lance. It wasn't for another decade that Zelda had her youngest child, the spunky Zina.
Linka and Lance, while different, share a lot of traits with one another. Possibly the biggest is that they are in love with an Aegis child. Linka fell in love with Malon's oldest son, Ralf. Lance on the other hand secretly holds a torch for the oldest daughter, Vivienne. To make a point very clear, if all goes well with those children, it could mean more people joining the reunion every year. Why? Lets just say that people of Aegis blood are more fertile than others.
Can anyone see the reunion in a few more years? But speaking of the families…
"Its times like these that I ask myself why I didn't destroy the world in the first place," Vincent said. Ralf, for an odd reason is the short way to say his full name of Vincent Dante Aegis III, wasn't present at the reunion. As for the destruction of the world… that's better left as a closed chapter in the book of Vincent. It is a lot easier for everyone to forget what went wrong eighteen years ago then to constantly bring it up. Of course, Vincent is still proud that he was able to defeat Link with ease back then.
"I would've helped," Link added. His daughter Linka was also not with the family.
"Calm down you two," Zelda said. "I'm sure they are on their way her right now. You two know them, they wouldn't be up to anything we wouldn't approve of."
"I don't know, Ralf takes an awful lot after his father," Malon said. Ralf and Vincent, while live life differently from each other, often act alike. It's almost to the point where Ralf is more like a younger Vincent… which is technically true. In short, Ralf is acting the same way as his father did when his father was his age.
"I'm just glad Vivienne isn't like that," Vincent said. He can easily admit that he's more sexually responsive and maybe his son as well, but Vincent still sees his daughter as an innocent angel. Or half-angel, depending on the way you look at it.
The parents looked over to where their children were. They glanced at Sheik and Lance talking to each other. One could assume it was Lance asking Sheik on how to finally ensnare Vivienne. Vivienne herself was far off, alone and simply sitting down on the lush grass. She watched the younger children play their games. She looked a little bored. If Lance were smart, he would've done something. But that's a big if. Lance isn't exactly full of the right smarts to move in on Vivienne. He's bright in his own right but not as knowledgeable as Sheik. Not to mention Sheik is the older brother, so Lance going to him for advice is only natural
Even farther off, at Lon Lon Ranch, we can see the algamation of the two families. In the ranch house, there was Linka and Ralf. Linka, the true warrior princess, and Ralf, the golden boy, were both scurrying to get dressed. Happy and in love, they were also in deep trouble. Neither link nor Vincent would like them to be late to such an occasion. And as much as the fathers loved their children, they were also strict and wary of the hormones.
Linka managed to finish dressing herself first, "Ralf, get your butt in gear! We're late as it is."
Ralf buttoned the last button on his shirt, "It's not my fault we overslept."
"Ugh, I cannot believe we overslept," Linka groaned.
"Its simple Linka," Ralf said. "I mean, we didn't really sleep at all last night."
"Shut up," Link threatened. "That's the last time I train all night before something big. Exactly how did you even persuade me into doing so?"
Ralf smiled, "I'm not sure. It all happened so fast. We were talking and then I pulled my blade out. I've gotten better… probably not enough to beat you but then we were just going at it. I didn't think we sparred for most of the night though."
"I'm going to take that the literal way," Linka said. She pushed Ralf out the door and pulled him along as they walked over to the lake. "We have to hurry, I don't want my dad to kill you."
"Wait… wha?" Ralf asked. What Linka said was the most effective threat she could've used against Ralf.
But little do they know, each and everyone of them, there is something far more powerful and dangerous plotting something against Hyrule. An omnipotence that lives up to its name and that no angel, no hero, no valkyrie, no nephilim, no lesser god, and no deva could stand up against. Link and everyone on the side of good will have to face the wrath of one of the greatest powers in the universe…
A young man, appearing to be no older than a twenty year old, walked the hollowed halls of a castle. His sable black hair was swept to his right and helped covered his hazel eyes hidden by glasses. Unfortunately, a thick and long red scarf that fell long in the back and cut short up front also sheltered his mouth. If one didn't know much about him, they wouldn't be able to read his perpetual stoic face. His heavy boots caused echoes of his footsteps when he walked. The man carried a tray, held by the handles, that displayed a breakfast of pancakes drenched in syrup, an omelet, and a glass of orange juice. He was careful not to spill any of it, especially onto his white button up dress shirt, but after years upon years of doing the same thing, it had gotten easier.
The young man came to a pair of great oak doors. Knowing that they weren't locked or even actually shut, he turned around and pushed himself inside using his back. He walked into the grand master bedroom, complete with a gargantuan canopy bed with white lace and black silk. The man walked over to the bed to find his sleeping goddess still asleep.
He sighed and placed the breakfast tray on the end table next to the bed. He turned around and started to walk away from the bed. The man was just steps away from the bed before…
"Chris?" uttered the newly awakened empress. "Where are you going?"
Chris stopped in his tracks and turned around, his scarf swaying with his moments. "You were asleep, Samantha, I thought it would be best to let you rest. I remember last time that I woke you…" Chris answered.
Samantha smiled seductively, "That was only once, now come be with me while I eat the breakfast that you made for me."
Chris sighed and walked back over to the large bed. He sat down next to the curvy woman and began to set up the table on her lap. While the skimpy silk nightie that neared see-through would've driven normal men to he blushes and wolf whistles, Chris had seen her enough in it to not care. Or at least long enough to show he doesn't care. "Whatever my goddess wants, she gets."
Samantha smiled at her dominance, "You know it more than anyone. Tell me, why do you cover my little present with that scarf of yours."
Samantha referred the spiked collar she gave to Chris seventeen years ago. Under the more usual circumstances, Chris would've loved it and wore it with pride. But Samantha had become a little bit more menacing and vengeful the past few years and Chris rather had the collar of obedience covered to be more discreet. He couldn't remember if she ever did needed to use its power but as long as it was on him, he would have to obey her every whim… or face unending torture. Why would she give him such an item even though he will never say no? One could think it could be brought on by her new personality, while more assertive and twisted, is unsure of Chris' feelings.
Samantha is the Goddess of Love and Hate, so her rightful Triforce is the double-edged sword of the sacred triangles. While it is love, its also hate. Polar opposites but that never meant Samantha was one or the other. She was her own being. But ever since most of the Triforce of Love was taken away, she had become more vindictive and malicious, even to her knight, the one who would always be with her till the end of time and beyond. Chris served countless of centuries and millennia to Samantha as her knight, the one always their to protect her.
"I feel it's a little too…" Chris searched for the right word. "Endearing for the world to see."
"But, Chris," Samantha said. "The world isn't the one who wants to see it on you." She smiled at him, one of her seductive and naughty smiles.
Chris' face reddened, "Could you eat your breakfast before it cools?"
"You brought me pancakes! How thoughtful of you," Samantha said. She took her knife and fork and cut out a slice of the stack. She lifted the piece to her mouth and chewed on it. She swallowed it and noticed that a drop of syrup fell on her cleavage. "Oh, clumsy me. Could you handle that for me, Chris?"
A few more shades of red entered his face. "Well, um, sure… just let me go get a napkin," he retorted as he hopped off the bed. He quickly walked away to get away from anymore…
"You don't need a napkin silly," Samantha added.
Too late.
Chris stopped, "What do you mean by that, Mistress?"
Samantha wiped away some of the syrup from her plate and licked it cleanly off with an enticing smile at the end. "Understand now?"
Chris understood. All to well but he couldn't allow himself to become seduced. Even in her new way of thinking, she was still a Goddess and he was just an Angelic knight. Never meant to be in love or lust, only to protect and serve. So Chris did the only thing he could do then, play ignorance. "Excuse me, Mistress, but where are you getting at?"
Samantha sighed angrily, "No where, Chris. But I do need you to do something for me."
"What is it, my goddess?" Chris asked.
"I need you to go down to Hyrule and evaluate Link and Vincent for me," Samantha said. "Today is the day I begin to get my revenge of those little children. I want the Triforces so I can show them how to really run the world."
Chris looked up at her, "You mean leave the castle and… check if Vincent and Link are any threat?"
"Yes, that's about it," Samantha replied. She took a bite of the omelet. She had sometimes forgotten how good a cook Chris was. His omelets were to die for but he rarely made them. Maybe as a way to somewhat torture her. "Understand that?"
Chris nodded, "I do."
