Disclaimer: I do not own the Legend of Zelda
Link and Zelda appeared in front of the entrance to Dodongo's Cavern. There was a crash as Darunia landed in front of them. "You have cleared the cavern of evil creatures and allow us to harvest the tasty rocks from there again" said Darunia
"Here is the Ruby as I promised" he said holding out the Ruby
"Thank you" said Link taking it and putting it away
"You are now our Sworn Brother and Sister" said Darunia
"Thank you for this honor" said Zelda bowing
"If you are in need of more power, I have heard that a Great Fairy lives at the top of the mountain" said Darunia
"We will go check it out tomorrow" said Link
"Do you have a place we could stay for the night" asked Zelda
"Follow me" proclaimed Darunia
The next morning they started their ascent of Death Mountain. They saw the path was blocked by large rocks and there was a sign nearby that said 'DANGER'.
"Maybe this is what we need the Hylian Shield for" said Zelda
Link took out the Hylian Shield and put it on while Zelda's shield grew back to its original size.
After destroying the large rocks with bombs they started their ascent. As they were walking along a blacken trail the ground started shaking. They looked up and saw volcanic rock falling towards them. They quickly ducked and the volcanic rock bounced off their shields. Once it stopped they started running towards the end of the trail. They had to stop and duck a couple more times before they finally made it.
"So that's what we needed the Hylian Shield for" said Zelda
"Better than having large rocks constantly thrown at you" said Link
"At least you get a break here" he added
After Link killed the Skullwalltula with his slingshot, they started climbing. They eventually reached the summit and looked around. They saw a cracked wall that Link put a bomb in front of. It exploded destroying the wall allowing them inside.
They came into an ornate looking fountain with crystal clear water. They saw the mark of the Triforce before the fountain. So Zelda took out her ocarina and played her lullaby.
There was the sound of laughter as the Great Fairy appeared out of the fountain. The first thing that they both noticed was that she was almost naked with only leaves and vines covering the necessary parts. "She is practically naked" thought Link and Zelda
"Ah, Goddess Hylia and her Champion" said the Great Fairy
"My name is Zelda"
"Only Link can call me that" thought Zelda
The Great Fairy laughed before she once again spoke. "I have nothing to give you Champion" said the Great Fairy
"What I have, you already know" she said
"Go find my sisters scattered throughout Hyrule" she said
"To find my next sister, go to the dead end on the path that leads to the castle" she said
"Destroy the rocks there to gain access" she said
"Until we meet again Goddess, Champion" she said
She then disappeared into the fountain while laughing.
They left the fountain and saw Kaepora Gaebora perched on a sign. "I am here to give you a ride down the mountain" said Kaepora Gaebora
"Thank you" exclaimed Link
Both Link and Zelda grabbed a hold of Kaepora Gaebora's talons and he took them down the mountain. He then dropped them on the roof of a building in Kakariko Village before flying away.
"He definitely no Loftwing" said Link getting up
Zelda got up and looked around. "He left us on the top of a building" shouted Zelda
After they carefully climbed down to the ground, they went towards the inn. "I think it would be best for me to stay here while you go find the next fountain" said Zelda
"So nobody would have a chance to recognize me" she added
"Alright" said Link
"I will see you later then" he said giving her a quick kiss
He left Kakariko Village and made his way to Hyrule Castle Town.
He arrived in the afternoon and went towards the castle. He got over the gate like last time and went towards the dead end. He destroyed the large rock with a bomb and crawled through the small hole that appeared.
He came into an ornate fountain that looked like the last one. He went up to the Triforce mark and played Zelda's Lullaby on his ocarina.
There was laughter as the Great Fairy appeared out of the fountain. "Ah, Hylia's Champion" said the Great Fairy
"I have a name you know" thought Link
"Accept this power, it will help on your quest" said the Great Fairy
She cupped her hands in front of her and a stream of magic flew towards Link. It stopped above Link's hands and formed a clear crystal with a glowing red center. He took the crystal and knowledge of what it was and how to use it appeared in his mind.
He grasped the crystal in his hand and brought his arm back before slamming his hand into the ground while yelling "DIN'S FIRE"
Link was surrounded by a dome of fire that then exploded outward.
"Nice" said Link as he put the crystal away
"You will find my next sister in the area where the Zora's Deity resides" said the Great Fairy
"Until we meet again Champion" she said
She laughed as she disappeared into the fountain.
Link left the fountain and went back to town.
By the time he got there it was dark out. So he went to the inn to get a room for the night.
The next day he went back to Kakariko Village. He arrived about midday and found Zelda waiting for him in the inn. "What did you get" asked Zelda when she saw Link
"Follow me and I will show you" said Link
He led Zelda to Death Mountain's Trail and took out the crystal. "I got this" said Link showing Zelda the crystal
He the grasped the crystal in his hand and brought back his arm before slamming his hand into the ground while yelling "DIN'S FIRE"
Link and Zelda were surrounded by a dome of fire that exploded outward.
"Nice spell" said Zelda
"Thank you" said Link
They then went back to the room they still had at the inn. Once back there Link asked "Where do we need to go next"
"We need to go to the source of the river where the Zora live to get the Sapphire" said Zelda
That night while they were sleeping, they both had a nightmare.
Link and Zelda were walking back to Hyrule Castle Town after getting the Sapphire. They noticed it got real dark out as they approached. They then saw the drawbridge come down and Ganondorf riding out on his horse.
Zelda got in front of Link with her sword and shield out. She knew right now only her sword and shield were strong enough to stand up to Ganondorf's. But she forgot one thing. While her sword and shield were strong enough, her body wasn't. She was thrown to the ground by Ganondorf's attack.
Ganondorf reached down and grabbed Zelda by her neck and lifted her up squeezing her. Zelda started struggling to break free but the grip was too strong. Link tried to attack Ganondorf only to be blasted away.
"NOOOO" yelled Link and Zelda shooting up from the bed
They both clutch at each other and held each other tightly.
"That was like the nightmares I had but you were in it" said Link
"Do you think it was a vision of the future" asked Zelda a little scared
"I really hope not" said Link
The next morning they left Kakariko Village and started on their way to the Zora's Domain.
As they were walking along the river they saw Kaepora Gaebora perched on top of a small pillar. "You are heading to the Zora's Domain" said Kaepora Gaebora
"They were tasked by the Royal Family to guard the source of the river" he said
"Prove your connection to them to gain admittance" he said
He then took off and flew away.
Link and Zelda continued on only to see a fence blocking their path and a large man sitting in front of it eating something. "Want some Magic Beans" asked the man
"No" said Link
They jumped across the river and continued on their way. They had to jump over the river a few more times until they arrived at the end. There was a waterfall in front of them and they saw they were standing on a mark of the Triforce. Zelda took out her ocarina and played her lullaby. The waterfall parted revealing a passageway that they jump into.
They came into the Zora's Domain. They followed the signs to the King's throne room until they came to a fork in the path. To the right was the King's throne room and to the left was a diving challenge. "Want to try the diving challenge" asked Link
"Sure" said Zelda
They went to the left and came to a stop at the top of a waterfall overlooking Zora's Domain. "Would you like to take the diving challenge" asked the Zora near them
"Yes" said Link and Zelda
"I will throw out five blue rupees and you will have to dive down and collect them within 50 seconds" said the Zora
"I bet I will beat you" said Zelda
"You really think you can beat me" said Link arrogantly
"Who is going first" asked the Zora
"I am" said Link
The Zora threw out five blue rupees and they splashed down in the water far below. "Begin" said the Zora
Link jumped off the cliff and dived into the water with barely a splash. He collected all five blue rupees within the time limit and return to the top of the waterfall. "Congratulations" said the Zora taking the blue Rupees from Link
"Here is your prize" he said holding out a Silver Scale
"Thank you" said Link taking it
"It will allow you to dive deeper into the water than you could before" said the Zora
"Are you ready to try it young lady" he said
"Yes" said Zelda
The Zora threw out the five blue rupees and Zelda dove off the top of the waterfall and entered the water without a splash. She collected all five blue rupees and came back up. "Congratulations" said the Zora
"Here is your prize" he said holding out a Silver Scale
"Thank you" said Zelda taking it
"You had a more graceful dive" said the Zora looking at Zelda
"But he had more skillful dive" he said looking at Link
"I guess we tie then" said Link
He then walked up to the edge of the waterfall and held out his hand asking "Shall we"
Zelda came up to him and nodded her head saying "Yes"
Together they jumped off and dove into the water far below.
