So I saw your latest prompt (is that what you call it?) with Zelda and link and I loved it! So I was wondering if you could do Zelda and link again with #8? If it's not too much trouble? ️ Thank you! ❤️ (this is the right place to submit right?)

Heigh-ho! For the feels!
Prompt: (You didn't specify the exact game, so I'll just go with whatever, is that cool?)
Zelda ran with all her might, looking behind her at times before stumbling on her dress.
As she fell, she looked back and grabbed the ends, not having time to tie or rip to solve any problems, and just quickly got up again.
Dark mists clouded the sides of the walls where she ran down the corridors of the temple of time.
She breathed hard as she ran, this time, not daring to look back.
'I have to make it on time! I have to-!'
"Ah!" She stopped when the smog shifted to the front of her, and began to form into one big cloud.
She threw an arm up, "Goddesses! Protect me! Protect Hyrule! Protect Him!"
Giant glowing eyes suddenly shone open through the darkness.
"There is no light that can save you now… princess!"
A large mouth opened, a fiery of flames sparking out of it, before the head reeled back in a wobbly shake, and then charged her.
"Ahh!"
"HYAH!"
In a flash of blinding light, Zelda opened her eyes, and was shocked to see that Link had made it back safely.
He stood, brave and true, with his sword having stabbed upward to the top of the roof of Ganon's spirit form self.
That's when she realized…
Spirit can't be injured unless….
"Oh no… Link!"
His tunic flowed with a wind non-existent.
His aura shown from his spirit form, and she lowered her head, realizing he had not returned at all.
His body must be around here somewhere…
She quickly looked around, and got up, placing a hand to her heart.
"Link! I'm so sorry! I'm sorry I couldn't protect you." she looked down, realizing she couldn't protect anyone… not even her own precious people from having their spirit's lifefore drained into Ganon's triforce.
"But… But by freeing you-!" she rose her head. "By freeing you, you shall defeat Ganon. And my people and land will be redeemed and saved!"
Link's head slightly turned back, and nodded to her.
Gaining strength and courage from his action, she nodded too. The respect between the two was uncanny to how it first was…
"Stall him, Link! I'm counting on you!" she took off, as Link gave out a cry and started swiping at the struggling head of darkness, pushing it back as she was able to make it down the other corridor, and finally to the Master sword.
Link's body was in a frozen state, having willingly given up his body to fight Ganon and his spirit forces.
However…
His body was now standing with his hands upon the Master sword, eyes closed, as though a standing Sleeping Beauty…
Zelda rushed up, not having seen his face in so long…
She lightly reached for it…
She drew it back quickly, squinting her eyes shut in pain at how she felt she had failed him, before shaking her head. "I mustn't give into self-pity. I must help, Link! After all the trouble I've given him!" she quickly placed her hands over his own, and pulled on the sword.
"By the goddesses's lights! Please! Master sword! Return Link to his body, and give us the strength seal Ganon with your power forever!"
The Master Sword remained poised as if an entity of itself. It's power she could feel, but it was not hers to wield.
"No..N..NO..!" she strained on the sword, pulling and tugging, and slowly dropping to her knees, letting tears fall from her eyes.
"I can't fail him.. please… I can't lose him again… He was so kind, at the ready… and I treated him so horribly… I beg of you… We need him… I… I need-!"
Suddenly, Link's hand shifted.
"Ah..!"
She looked up.
Though his body still frozen, spirit Link had entered the room, and lightly touched her hand.
Her spirit felt spirit, and she smiled, but still felt his comfort was not enough.
She lowered her head. "Ganon will return from the spirit world. He can't be hurt for long in this form…" she slowly rose up, then looked determined to Link. "We must seal him. With or without the master sword." she looked away, the very fact of that grieved her.
"Has…Has any legend ever told of defeating him without it?"
Link remained silent as she looked back to him, but his eyes never left her.
she faced him fully. "Link…."
He couldn't bear to watch her suffering eyes, and see the gentle marks of shame written upon her trying face.
He turned away, looking down.
"Then… I am a failure."
His head shot straight up, traces of a righteous anger at hearing her say such a thing.
She had done more for hyrule than ever he had dreamed to do.
"Don't look at me like what I say is false…" Zelda bent her head in silent tears. "I.." she strained to speak with calmness now, her emotions washing over her. "I have no right to be given such kindness in such horrible failure!"
She tightened her fists, as Link stepped forward, gritting his teeth.
"Because of me… Hyrule will be a ghost of the past… my people swallowed up unto power and greed… not by their own choice… and used against their will to create evil and scorn. My land will be put to waste. And your own body will whither here for eternity…"
He paused a moment, his feet unmoving… until he walked with conviction to her side.
She felt something embrace her and looked up, surprised, before turning to Link's spirit form.
He had ducked his head… and held her spirit to his.
Her eyes strained against tears again but it was no use.
"Oh, Link!" she leaned into it, though her body phased through him a bit, he only held her tighter…
"I wish… I wish I could of told you to your own ears… that I… I never should have treated you that way! I was jealous." she shook her head, opening her eyes and looking out towards where they had come.
"I was so grossly insulted that the hero wasn't what I thought he should be. You were just a boy, though you did show amazing potential. Secretly… in my heart I wished to be the hero… not the promised princess that would lead to this terror of an end."
He moved his hand to her head, gripping her hair lightly.
"I'm so sorry, Link! I… I can't afford to make up for these failures…but at least know. I see now that a true hero is one who remains faithful to his destiny, a hero that strives for peace, and fights for that which he loves most."
Link smiled, and pulled away, lightly looking to her with gentle eyes.
"…Ah." Zelda heard his words in her heart.
"…I… I am then a hero promised too?"
Just then, Ganon's spirit form roared into existence, as the temple filled with darkness once more.
Link stood protectively out before Zelda, holding a hand back and placing his spirit sword upright.
"…I can't let you fight alone…" Zelda knew he was fight Ganon for the rest of eternity to keep him from destroying the world, but such a terrible fate would not befall her hero!
She raced to the sword, her eyes narrowed in such extreme hope and effort that it was clear her heart had been changed.
"Please!" she cried out, using every bit of her strength.
"I wish not to wield you! But to free him! He needs you!"
Her spirit glowed, and Ganon stopped his full attack on Link to look up, as Link also turned as well.
Her spirit power was shining through her physical form…
"Master Sword..! As I claim the goddess Hylia's light! I command you in the name of the royal family of hyrule! As the one known as Zelda! Release your hold upon the spirit world, and give me my hero!"
The Master Sword shone, and her light enveloped it.
With a few more inches of gaining ground, she successfully wiggled it out of it's place, and held it high, as Link's spirit was immediately thrown back into his body, and he stumbled awake, blinking his eyes before falling down.
"Ah!" Zelda held the sword close, but turned to Link, who placed a hand on his head, and shook it out.
"Oh, Link!" Zelda fell down to her knees and embraced him, surprising him.
"Wa-ah!" He let out a shocked sound before smiling nervously to her, a bit flustered, before looking up at Ganon, and realizing this wasn't the time.
He grabbed the hilt of his Sword, and smiled to Zelda.
She understood, nodding, and letting go of her hold on it.
He rose up, and held it skyward, before swiping it down in a fashionable manner, as to place it in front of Zelda, making a statement.
He would protect her and her kingdom for as long as his spirit may live.
Ganon roared, defeated in trying to stop this from happening, and swarmed his darkness around them.
Zelda, showing no fear now, rose her hand. "Goddess's light!"
Her power spread the darkness away, as it disintegrated, and the souls of her people were released.
Burning, having marks of fire on his blackened cloudy face, Ganon roared in his pig-like formed head and charged them, not giving up.
Her triforce shone then.
"Seal him, Link!"
Link's triforce shone as well, placing both hands on his sword, and then charging.
Zelda drew out a bow from her spirit's light, and aimed.
Once Link had held him down long enough for her to power up and strike a good hit a few times, this battle lasted what seemed a millennium, until he finally attempted to retreat to twilight.
"Not this time!" Zelda raced forward. "Link! He can't escape!"
From above her, Link had jumped.
"HYYYAHHH!" His sword jammed into the crystal that made his eyes glow, and they flickered now as he shook his head like a wild hog.
Finally, his form faded, and he froze in air, as the master sword collected the misty cloud of his dark being and now glowed with evil power.
Link stepped towards the Temple of Time's stone, and stabbed the sword within it.
The evil spread out before being dragged and pulled back into the slit where the sword was placed, as if Ganon was trying to crawl away.
A light shone and music played.
Link nodded, and sighed in relief, taking a hand off the sword.. before letting his other hand slip off finger by finger…
He then heard something collapse and turned around.
"A-ah!" He raced in panic to Zelda's side, holding her up, being able to physically do so now.
She looked exhausted, as her eyes fluttered open, and she lightly chuckled to him.
"We… We have not failed…" she was losing consciousness.
He smiled gently, but in panic. He lightly hesitated a hand by her cheek…
She shakily rose her hand, and lightly grabbed his, putting his hand to her face.
Premission granted.
"Link…" she faintly called, as he tried to catch his breathing in a normal rhyme, and bent down to her. Showing he had heard. (How can't you with those ears?)
"…I.. I will always need you… to protect… this land…" she slowly leaned her head back, and passed out.
He held his mouth to a tight line, slightly furrowing his brow as he leaned down…
And held her… making a silent vow to do just that… and remain by her side.
(We have conquered this land in the name of Zelink!)
