Chapter 3 is now up and ready to go.

Anyways, I do not own any characters from the Legend of Zelda series or story.

Enjoy!

Chapter 3: The Revival and Greetings

"...Open your eyes…"

There was a blinding light as the slumbering Hero weakly opened his eyes in what felt like ages. As the light faded away his obscured vision was slowly becoming much more clearer until he could see the small details on the ceiling.: "Open your eyes… Open your eyes."

The feminine voice was much more clearer now that he was able to get a hold of his five senses. As the water drained around him the voice continued, "Wake up, Link."

With his clear blue eyes now fully open, he slowly started testing out his muscle strength getting rid of the numbness in each part. Link slowly sat up straight to adjust his bearings for a bit. The Chosen Hero slowly got out of the chamber. As he did, a pedestal lit up in blue. Curiosity peaked his interest, and soon he was standing in front of the pedestal. The center of the pedestal began to turn, and a slab was lifted off of its place.

The voice spoke again, "That is a Sheikah Slate. Take it. It will help guide you after your long slumber."

"Long… slumber… how… long…," Link's quiet voice croaked. He silently picked up the Sheikah Slate like the voice told him to do. Now in his hand, Link glance at the strange yet familiar slab in front of him. A second later, the screen lit up slightly startling him. The male teen looked at it in wonder. The pedestal in front of him soon went back to its normal position, and the entrance at the front cleared away.

Link's curiosity got the best of him, and he found himself in another room with two chests in the middle and another pedestal that was glowing orange instead of blue like the one in the other room. The Hero opened the two chests revealing an old shirt and well-worn trousers that came with a pair of boots. Unlike the boots, the shirt and the trousers were a bit too small on him, but he shrugged it off. The orange glowing pedestal caught his attention and was already walking over to it. Once he was in front of it, the voice spoke once more, "Hold the Sheikah Slate up to the pedestal. That will show you the way."

Without questioning the voice, Link took the slate from the straps and placed it over the pedestal. Upon making contact, the orange glow was now blue like the one in the previous room. There was rumblings as the door to the shrine opened up. The Hero walked over to the entrance where he was basked in the sun's light since his long slumber. As his vision adjusted to the outside light, the voice spoke again, "Link… You are the light—our light—that must shine upon Hyrule once again. Now, go…"

Link waited a bit too see if the voice was going to say anymore, but none came. He ran up on the stairs until a large boulder stood in his way, in which he climbed it to get to the platform, and from there he ran as fast as his legs could take him until was at the edge of the cliff. The land of Hyrule was beautiful. In the distance, Link could make out a silhouette of a castle. Farther back was a volcano creating black clouds of smoke. Down below were a bunch of forest trees, and to his right he spotted what looks like to be the remains of a wall. When Link turned his head to the right, there was a man wearing a hood camping in a cave which was next to building. Link headed down in the man's directions picking up Hylian shrooms and a sharp tree branch along the way to the where the strange man was.

The stranger greeted him, "Oho ho! Well met, stranger! It's rather unusual to see another soul in these parts." The hood was covering the man's eyes, so the only feature Link could make out was the white fluffy beard. Link tilted his head to one side: "Who are you?" Link asked almost with authority. The tone he used felt second nature to him, almost as if he was someone important. It was right there and then that Link realized that he had no recollection of his past.

"Me? I'll spare you my life story. I am just an old fool who has lived here, alone, for quite some time now." The old man evaded the Hero's question with his own, "What brings a bright-eyed young man like you to a place like this?"

Link's eyebrows furrowed a bit as the man-in-question dodged his question. The teen finally replied, "Where are we?"

"Answering a question with a question. That is fair enough," the strange old man continued, "As I can not tell you that our meeting to be a simple coincidence… I shall tell you." Link made himself comfortable as the man tells hims.

"This is the Great Plateau. According to the legend, this is the birthplace of the entire kingdom of Hyrule." The old man stood up from his spot as did Link. He then looked into the direction of the building to the right of the cave.

"That temple there… Long ago, it was a site of many sacred ceremonies. Ever since the decline of the kingdom 100 years ago, it sat abandoned, in a state of decay." The stranger then turned his head towards the person next to him, Link.

"Yet another forgotten entity. A mere ghost of its former self…," his voice was almost a whisper towards the end, but Link was able to the wise man's words.

"I shall be here for some time. Please let me know if I may be of service." And without further ado, Link said his goodbyes and left. Once Link was out of earshot, the old man chuckled, "You have not changed a bit Link. You have not changed a bit."

Link's next destination was the temple. Along the way he spotted some type of weapon next to campsite. Link murmured quietly to himself, "It was probably the old man, and judging by how cool it is I'd say about a day or so." Not bothering to stick around any longer than he needed, Link grabbed the woodcutter's axe and ran freely.

Ever since he woke up, Link has never experience this much freedom. He wondered if he had gotten any freedom in the past, but he could not remember a single thing. Not dwelling on his lost memories, he enjoyed the freedom given to him. But that suddenly came to a stop a red pig-like monster came out of nowhere and was about to attack him.

Instinctively, Link wield the new weapon that he found at the campsite in his hands: "A Bokoblin," Link whispered to himself again. He didn't dwell too much on how he knew its name because in that moment the bokoblin was making a stabbing motion at him with a sharp tree branch in its hands. Link dodged the attack with ease and countered the monster with his own attacks. With each swing of the axe, there were more deep gashes on the bokoblin. Link gave the axe one final swing delivering the final blow on the bokoblin. The now dead bokoblin laid there on the ground when it suddenly disappeared into a puff of black purple smoke. There was an object on the ground where the bokoblin was slain. Link picked it up immediately identifying it as a bokoblin horn and stuffed it into one of his pouches.

As soon as he stepped onto the grounds of the ruined temple, he heard the same voice calling out to him, "...Link… Link." Said person began to look around him to see if there was anyone besides him, but there wasn't.

"Head for the point marked on the map in your Sheikah Slate," the female voice spoke to him. Link did what he was told and pulled up the map on the slate that was now in his hand. With a new destination in mind he set out in the direction of where it is.

Link felt a pair of eyes on him. Not wanting to engage in another battle just yet, Link was on the move once again. No later, he fought a bokoblin that was wielding a club in one hand, and the Hero strategically managed to knock the weapon out of its hands. Link gave the bokoblin a mean nasty vertical hit with the axe on the bokoblin's head killing it in the process before picking up the Boko Club. He immediately equipped the club along with the axe. The Hero soon came across an old crusted chest that had a pair of nicely fitted Hylian trousers. He engaged a blue blob of slime which he identified it as a Chuchu. Once it was defeated, he wasted no more time on this place as he picked up the chuchu jelly.

Link smelled something delicious cooking in the air, and looked around the area and noticed two Bokoblins cooking a perfectly good chunk of juicy meat roasting over on an open fire. He also noticed a heavy boulder that he could push on a high platform with stairs, and a couple of TNTs placed far from the fire and the food. Link silently made his way over to the stairs and up on the platform where the boulder was.

"Now, to get them to come over here," Link whistled catching the two monsters' attention to where one of them was under the exact spot and the other was a little farther than the first, but closer to the TNT's explosion range. The Hero put his plan into action. He pushed the boulder killing the first Bokoblin, and as the chunk of rock rolled over to the TNT causing an explosion killing the second one as well. Link jumped to the ground landing perfectly on his two feet and made his way over to the seared steak. Before coming here, he snacked on the Hylian shrooms that he picked, although he wasn't as hungry like earlier, Link devoured half of the steak before wrapping the leftover in large clean leaf and put it in one of his pouches. Link still sensed that someone was watching him, but he continued on with his mission given to him by the voice.

Along the way, Link got a few more things along his way: a boko bow and a good handful of arrows, a shabby boko shield, a traveler's sword. He finally got to his destination in four hours, and if he walked it would have probably take him two more hours to get here. His clear blue eyes recognized a familiar looking pedestal that was glowing orange. Knowing what to do next, the Hero unlatched the slate off his hips and put it on the pedestal. When the glow flashed a bright orange color, the ground was violently shaking and the platform was now high up in the sky.

Link, the conductor of the Spirit Train, was close the to the strange architecture, unaware of the other Links who were also near the exact location, as the violent tremors occurred. Suddenly, the land that was nearly burying it broke up into chunks of rocks and a tower began to rise up into the sky. Link, Link's Awakening, was spatting curse words in different languages it occurred. Link, Adventures of Link, had managed to fall face first into the ground somehow. The Four Links, Four Swords Adventure, Green, Blue, Vio, and Red were tangled up with a couple of limbs sticking out.

Link, Breath of the Wild, managed to stand up after the shaking stopped. A weird crystal like structure was glowing blue hieroglyphic letters forming into a single glowing teardrop which landed on the the Sheikah Slate. The tear had managed to update the map showing the Great Plateau area. Just as he was about to leave the tower, the same presence that was watching him was going to make their appearance soon.

Previews to the next chapter:

Spirit sputtered, "Huh?! Wha?! When?!"

Link, who was still leaning against the tower's structure, spoke to the large group of him for the first time, "Since some mes began pouring out their heart tugging story, so about three hours." Blue was about to retort when Link held up one finger, "Hold your thought for just a few minutes. We've got a visitor." And just like Link said, the mysterious old man that he had met earlier landed safely right next to him with paraglider. The younger versions of Link, except Mask, gaped.
