Sora, Donald and Goofy looked around, unsure of the world they were in. They had never seen it before, but it certainly seemed peaceful enough... That is, until a large number of Heartless poured in along with other monsters the three had never seen before. "Whoa! Get ready guys! Some of these things look tough!" Sora said as they summoned their weapons and tore through the monsters. After defeating them all, one more very large monster appeared. "MORE monsters?!" Sora said.
"Gawrsh, this world must be in some trouble!" Goofy said, peering out from behind his shield.
"We'll stop 'em all!" Donald said, casting a fire spell at the monster, causing it to back off.
"Good work, Donald! I'll finish this!" Sora said rushing in. Everything went black for a moment before a single white slash appeared, two weapons going through the monster and finishing it off. "Huh?" Sora said, as he had felt another weapon skim over the top of the keyblade as he had struck. He turned back as the monster's body disappeared to see a guy in a green tunic and matching hat with pointy ears with a sword and shield. "Hey, thanks for the help!" Sora said.
Link smiled and nodded. "No problem. Thanks for clearing out most of the monsters before I got here." He said (I know Link doesn't really talk, but he needs to. I'm writing the story, so just roll with it, okay people?!).
"I'm Sora." Sora introduced himself.
"Donald." Donald said.
"The name's Goofy." Goofy said, raising one hand.
"My name is Link. I'm the hero of Hyrule!" He said, raising the sword into the air emphatically.
Sora got a cocky smile at this. "Really? That's cool. I'm the wielder of the keyblade, which makes me the hero of all the worlds." He said.
Link raised his eyebrows at this, before getting his own smirk. "Really? How about a little sparring session, then?" He asked.
"Okay. Just you and me. Donald and Goofy, you guys sit this one out." Sora said.
"Oh, brother, what a show-off." Donald said as he and Goofy cleared some distance.
"You ready for this?" Sora asked, taking his stance.
"I was just waiting on you." Link said, rushing in.

Link prepared to attack, but Sora was ready and blocked it. Link continued to strike as Sora kept blocking, but then the keyblade wielder stomped on the ground, releasing a powerful shockwave that hit Link, taking him off balance and ending his assault, allowing Sora to unleash an impressive combo, ending with a powerful attack, creating 4 large spheres of light to circle around him, dealing some impressive damage to the hero of Hyrule. Link was sent back at about a jumping distance, before rolling back across the ground to clear more distance. "Not bad, Sora, but I'm not finished yet." Link said.
"I was hoping not. That'd be over way too soon." Sora said.
"Well then, get ready for this!" Link said, bracing himself before flying forward, spinning around with his sword out, becoming a mini tornado.
"Whoa!" Sora said, doing a backflip to jump quite high and levitated in the air for a moment afterward, easily dodging as Link passed underneath him and came to a stop. Sora then landed, turned around and used one of his most powerful spells. "Stopga!" Sora said, using his full-powered stop magic, stopping time around Link and freezing the hero of Hyrule there, allowing Sora to land another powerful combo. Link was finally unfrozen as Sora finished the combo, sending him forward, causing him to roll forward, getting into a crouched position and spinning around.
"Time to step it up!" Link said, raising the Master Sword, gaining power from above and flinging the skyward strike projectile thing at Sora.
"That's new!" Sora said, dodge-rolling out of the way, giving Link enough time to run in and slam into him with this Hylian shield, staggering Sora back and stunning him long enough to allow him to finally land his own impressive combo on Sora, knocking him back at last.
"How was that?" Link asked confidently.
"Wow, not bad." Sora said through some pain.
"Not finished either, coming at ya!" He said, rushing in and preparing to strike again.
"Force!" Sora said (that's what he says when using his gravity spell. I know, I don't get it either), summoning a large orb of what looked like space itself above Link, forcing it down on him and keeping him forced down under intense increased gravity. "That should buy me a second. Heal!" Sora said, using his magic to restore him back to full health. He then rushed in at Link just as the spell wore off and he recovered, allowing him to stop Sora's next strike with his shield. He then tried to strike at Sora with his sword again, but Sora managed to roll to the side and dodge it.
"I gotta admit, you're fast." Link said.
"You're no slowpoke yourself." Sora said.
"But I'm still not finished yet." Link said, pulling out a potion. Sora figured it was to heal himself, so he ran in attempting to stop him from doing so, but Link blocked his attack first, pushing back and delivering a powerful kick to Sora's stomach, knocking the wind out of him and giving Link the opportunity to heal himself. Using the opportunity while Sora was still winded, Link tossed a number of bombs at him, all blowing up upon contact with the younger hero and causing significant damage.
Sora rolled back across the ground into a crouching position, critically injured.
"Man... He's tough. I need more power!" Sora said, looking up in time to see Link about to attack. "Reflect!" He said, creating a magic barrier around him that in spite of his strongest attacks, Link couldn't get past. As Link finished his combo, the barrier expelled small orbs out of itself directly at Link, hitting him with twice the damage he would've inflicted on Sora (that's the best I can describe what happens), sending him flying back. "Alright, Link. It's time to show you what I can really do!" Sora said, getting up. Holding his keyblade up to the sky in front of him. "Light! Give me strength!" He shouted, the keyblade glowing and light surrounding both it and its wielder. When the light faded, Link looked and was surprised to see Sora hovering above the ground, his clothes changed to pure white with some black around it, two keyblades floating behind him, then snaked around in front of him as he flew towards Link.
"What is this?!" Link asked, shocked, getting ready to defend. But try as he might to do that, he was unable to, as the two weapons moved at incredible speeds in unpredictable ways the hero of time found himself unable to keep up with. Even if he managed to dodge or block one, the other one still managed to catch him off-guard and soon he found himself being pummeled by a barrage of powerful and unbelievable attacks from the weapons with light-based magic thrown in as blonde hero could not defend against, as he couldn't recover from the other attacks fast enough. On occasion, Sora even disappeared, reappearing quickly after and attacking almost instantaneously, leaving Link with no time to react to it all. (Incredible! I've never seen anything like that before!) Link thought as he tried to defend, but once again failed and was sent flying back. He had taken some serious damage and Sora seemed more than capable of going. He only had one more option at this point: The Triforce Slash. He summoned his power to the triforce symbol on his hand and launched it at Sora, managing to finally trap the keyblade wielder. Sora struggled to free himself, but was unable to as Link rushed in and started slashing with incredible power. Sora struggled, but felt himself weakening.
"Not like this!" He said.
"It's over!" Link said, preparing for the final slash.
"Not yet!" Sora said, exiting Final Form, being healed again as a result. Link landed the final attack, doing decent damage, but Sora was still more than capable of continuing. "Heal!" He said, using magic to restore himself.
"I think I'll do that, too!" Link said, taking another potion and getting a small amount of health back.
"Time to break my limits!" Sora said, using his only solo, but most powerful limit break, Trinity. He appeared in front of Link in an instant and delivered a powerful combo, ending in a devastating flying slash (he flew right at Link and slashed him at high speeds), doing massive damage to the hero, who before he could recover, was hit with the devastating combo one more time, finally ending the fight between the two young, but powerful warriors.
End music
Sora sighed in relief and walked up to Link, extending his hand to the downed warrior to help him up. "Thanks. You're indeed a powerful warrior, Sora." Link said.
"You, too. That was one of the toughest fights I've ever had. Hyrule is definitely safe in your hands." Sora said.
"And all the worlds are safe in your hands." Link agreed.
Holy shit, that was epic! Analysis:
1: This was an INCREDIBLY close fight. Link and Sora are VERY evenly matched in terms of skill and physical abilities, as both have reacted to light-speed attacks, survive beatdowns from super-powered beings and are incredibly powerful in their own right. Link had more experience, but Sora is a far less predictable fighter with more magic of different types than Link, as well as having many higher forms that are even less predictable and far more powerful, which also heal him when he enters and exits those forms. Also, Sora has fought beings that can alter reality and even create new dimensions from nothing, something that to my knowledge, Link has not done and wouldn't be able to combat.
2: Links impressive arsenal can be matched by Sora's large skillset and numerous abilities that can basically counter Link at every turn. And in Final From, Sora's strongest and least predictable form, Link has very little means of defending against something like that. While Link also had better defense in the Hylian shield, Sora has several means to get around Link's defenses with well-timed counterattacks and reflecting magic which bounces whatever Link could do to him right back at Link with twice the power.
3: The Master Sword is a deadlier weapon than the keyblade, which lacks sharp edges and stabbing capabilities, but also it is a weapon for best destroying evil, which Sora is not.
4: This fight could've gone on longer with more healing and such, but Link can only heal by using potions, whereas Sora has his magic, which, while it has to recharge after too much use, is limitless, whereas Link will run out of potions.
