The Legend of Zelda :Differentiation
I decided to write this fan-fic on this premise. What if link came back after OoT 5 years after the end of the game? heh, and my writing just started, i hope you like it.
The Legend of Zelda Differentiation Prologue A cloaked figure stood within a deserted area within a wood. It was raining furiously, pouring down as if to drown the earth where it was. It had been raining for several days, however, nothing to be seen as abnormal. The figure still stood within the clearing, as if the pouring rain was nothing. The figure had a certain elegance to it that suggested a female figure underneath, one that was high of stature. The cloaked woman was waiting here for a particular reason, or a particular person to be exact. From the shadows came another cloaked figure, however, this one was more heavyset and had broad arms, a frame closer to that of a males. Despite his heavyset frame, he walked with a brisk step, for there was a good amount of urgency for their meeting. As he came closer to the elegant figure, he slowed his pace then finally stopped right in front of her. “I am pleased to see you again old friend,” came the voice from the womanly figure, her voice soft and soothing, however, it had a commanding element that made it different than other woman’s voices. “However, I would have wished to meet with you under better circumstances.” a small chuckle radiated from within the man’s cloak, deep but raspy, a hint at his old age. “We had to meet now before the circumstances could worsen, otherwise what we are planning to do could never be accomplished.” The voice was of the man, sounding matter of fact but kind as well. “You know what this means if we accomplish our goals, do you not?” the man asked, as if the question had been nagging at him for quite some time. “I understand.” the woman answered. “We have already angered the three, but this will enrage them.” The two figures spoke to each other, as the rain poured ever faster onto the ground. “We are trying to do nothing but save our people, and if they would become angered by such a thing would prove that they did not care much for us in the first place.” “I have seen what they are planning to do…” said the man, catching himself before telling more than needed. The woman looked up to meet the mans eyes, catching him off guard.” Do not worry about telling me such things, you have told me enough, if you told me any more, you could risk angering the three even more than we have already done. “I just hope they will allow us to try to save our people…” “If not, they are even more foolish than we may believe.” another chuckle came from the man. “It is not good etiquette to speak badly of your creator.” A smile appeared under the woman’s cowl which covered her face. “When your creator tries to destroy your people, a person tends not to speak fondly of them.” The man smiled as well, mirroring the woman’s. “You are wise Princess, and you care about your people. You will make a fine queen of Hyrule someday.” With that the woman’s smile faded. “If there is a Hyrule left…” “Do not worry, we will succeed in our goal.” “I hope…” “If a person only hopes and never does something, they will never amount to anything.” “That is why we must succeed…” The rain got ever more threatening, violently striking all that it touched. The two figures stopped talking and observed this. “We are running out of precious time princess, we must start.” the man spoke, still watching the rain fall. “Yes, we must before it is to late.” With that the two figures parted, however they did not leave the clearing, instead they stopped and turned around to face each other. They both raised their hands out in front of them, as if grasping at the air that flowed there. Simultaneously, both of the figures began to speak an ancient tongue that had been thought long gone. It was the language of the ancient Hylans, and was being used to call upon their inner powers. A glowing orb formed within each of their hands, emanating with a golden light that pierced the darkness around them. Suddenly the two orbs burst forward and struck each other between the two figures, churning together to make a vortex between them. They still held their hands reaching forward, continuing to speak the words which made this happen. Suddenly a figure appeared from within the vortex, took a few steps and fell. The two stopped suddenly, seeing the figure falling. The figure was that of a man, and he lay naked on the ground. The womanly figure turned away as she noticed this, and the manly figure took off his cloak and rapped it around the naked man on the ground, clothing him. After the cloak was laid upon the figure the two knelt besides him. “It’s him Rauru, it’s him…” she stopped, suddenly choked up with the emotions that the words brought with them. “Yes we have returned him back to the land that of which he belongs. Welcome back Link, Hero of Time.” Ok people, tell me what you think, and i will add more to the story if you like it. |

Re: The Legend of Zelda :Differentiation
well, i guess i'll post more anyways, that may draw more people to read this...
“So how is he?” “I don’t know, it’s been 2 weeks… and he still acts as if we were strangers to him…” “He was gone for 5 years… we are strangers…” “Could it be that he had made loved ones in that other world?” “I don’t know… all I know is now we have a warrior, a hero, who is not willing to accept his duties…” “He has lost his will to fight, something, or someone has changed him…” Link, the Hero of Time stood within what used to be his house, 5 years back. The childhood memories came back to him as he stood within the house, as he tried to remember this place which was at one time his home. His memories filled within him, and the little ramshackle of a house which he stood within changed, returning back to the way he remembered it. A small boy lay on the bed below a window within the house, whimpering from a bad dream that had been plaguing him for some time now. Link looked down at the boy, watching the tears in the boy’s eyes do the crying that he was no longer able to do. The boy was himself, at the age of 12. An age for him that was of reckoning. It was at that age that he met a fairy named Navi, and during the same day, he set out onto an adventure that would change his life. The memories left him and the house changed back to the shambles that it had become within his 5 years leave. How could 5 years change a place so much?… he thought to himself. This place was the last place he was able to live a normal life… now it was merely a place that held old memories that meant little to him now. Finally he started back down the ladder that led from his house to the ground of the once kokiri forest. As he finished his climb down, he saw the forest as it was now, dead and no one in site. The kokiri had left the forest and had gone to another land to stay. The magic of the forest had died, and perhaps the kokiri with it… This place was once his childhood home, he had friends, Saria…, enemies, Mido…, and loved ones within the forest but now… they were all gone. Just as well, he thought now. They didn’t mean much to him anymore, nothing really did. He was never truly… happy. |

Re: The Legend of Zelda :Differentiation
I'll check out the link, (no punn intended, lol,) and heres some more of the story. ok people, i know when you start reading this you will think it odd, thats ebcouse the way I wrote it was rather different than conventional writing. I wrote this story, split up into 'scenes' byt astrisks (you know, ***,) so those actually split the scenes, not saying 'meenwhile' like they usually do. Just a forwarning, this caused alot of confusion with some of my freinds. thank you.
*** Princess Zelda stood within her bed chamber, looking at the sun setting through her window. The sun set was the most beautiful thing she had every seen, the amazing shades of orange and yellow, as the burning ball named the sun set itself upon the earth in the horizon. Such joys were few and far between for her, for it had been sometime since she felt as if the world was at peace… that was before she and Rauru had brought him back. Link, the Hero of Time. Something was wrong however, he seamed to be a changed man, he was no longer the happy boy she once knew so long ago. The boy who had cared for a friend so much that he had to go and find her…but now he seamed to care for nothing that this world held for him. Sometimes she wished she knew what happened to him, what had changed him from the friendly boy she knew, to the distant mysterious man she knew now. What could have been so amazing that it could change a person so much? Their was a sudden knock on her door, and she turned. Their was Link, standing within the door way, the same saddened expression on his face that he always held. “They were gone too…” he said to her, never minding that she stood in front of him with little else but her sleeping gown on. This came to no surprise to Zelda now, he never seamed to show emotion towards anyone. Their was no “thanks” that had been given to her and Rauru on the day that he awakened within his bed to find himself returned to the land of his heritage. He merely got out of bed, dressed himself and walked out the door, despite his weakness from being asleep for two weeks. “Where should I look next Zelda?” Zelda chuckled to herself, he never did call her princess, however he still respected her as if he was another of the citizens of Hyrule. He never saw himself above others, even after what he had gone through to be where he was. Currently he had been trying to find someone that could help remind him of his caring for the others within the land. It had been a suggestion that she had given him, in hopes that he would find it within himself to care once more… “I should have known, after the Deku Tree died, he left no offspring, and the magic of the forest died. The Kokiri have probably all died…” she said to him. “those poor children…” “They were only children to you because you got older, remember once you were the same age… I’ve decided to go search the Lost Woods, I probably won’t be back for a couple of days.” said Link, starting out the door. “Wait!” stammered Zelda, “Your going out again? So soon? Why don’t you rest and relax awhile?” She was starting to think this “finding a friend,” thing might not be as good as she had hoped. Link looked back and gave her a cold stare, a stare that gave her shivers down her spine. “If I stay and relax, I will not be at my best… I have to keep at edge in order to fight…” With that he left her standing. *** Princess Ruto of the Zoras floated within a shallow pool inside what was known as Zora’s Domain. She floated upright, as her fins on her arms and legs simultaneously moved back and forth in perfect symmetry, moving so that she looked as if she was standing within the pool. She floated their, pondering on what to do. Several days ago, one of the Hylan messengers had come with the news that Link the Hero of Time had returned to the land of Hyrule. At first, she was ecstatic… he was back! The hero of legend had returned! But then after it had sunk in…why had he returned. That was not said… she was told that he probably would not return from his journey, that no man could go into the Forbidden Woods and come out alive, and yet he some how came back, however 5 years later. Link the Hero of Time had been her betrothed, he had been her fiancé. However, she knew that it was for naught and told him, before he left that their would be no marriage and they don’t nead to be together. It was a childish act of telling him to marry her… children did such things, and he being a child of equal foolishness agreed to the marriage so that he could get the spiritual stone of Water. She didn’t understand it at first… he never came back… until a couple of days ago. During this time that Link had disappeared, she had a chance to ponder the actions that had taken place. Did he really care that they had made this agreement? Did he understand the vow e had made? Who knows… After a year of wondering, she saw him for lost… After all, it was a childish dream… that two children had made together… well… one more than the other. Who knows… After pondering this for awhile, Princes Ruto made up her mind… she would go see him. To see if he remembered her… and if he ever cared about her… |

Re: The Legend of Zelda :Differentiation
well, here's more if you wish to read it.
“So…has any change come over him since he has returned?” “No.” “Why is this?” “They seam not to know…” “Hmm… well… it seams Link the Hero of Time has come back a broken man… perfect…” Link stood within a clearing, which he was told was where he was brought back into the world of Hyrule. The place was deep within the lost woods, close to the Sacred Forest Meadow. This was his returning place…but why? What made this place so special? He stood underneath the shade of one of the many trees that made up the wood, pondering these things, when he heard it. A small snap of a twig… Link kneeled down and leaned forward, bringing his left hand up over his head to retrieve the short sword he held on his back, his other arm trying to get his shield. He leaned forward, letting the momentum take him as he unsheathed his blade, rolling forward as the being that had snapped the twig dived overhead. Link let the momentum carry him all the way around, leaving him back in his kneeled position. He spun to see his opponent, who had recovered from the dive and shifted it’s weight and landed on it’s feat. The figure was of Hylan appearance, but wore a cloak to hide the person’s armaments. As soon as the figure landed on it’s feat, it shifted it’s weight once again and changed to a dash at Link. Link waited to meet this attacker, holding his position. A woman’s voice hollered from within the cloak, anger filling her. As she came up to him, Link shifted his weight and dashed towards her, his shield in front of him. They both hit, but Link with his shield to hold his ground overpowered. The figure was pushed back and fell towards the ground. Link jumped upwards, spinning his sword in his hand, into the position so the blade was facing the ground, he prepared himself for what would be a killing blow. He came down, and landed right above the figure, his legs just parted enough so that he didn’t land on her. His blade came down and stopped at her neck. Laughter emitted from inside the cloak, then she reached up and pulled the covering from her face. Underneath was a face full of sorrow, and a small thin scar below her left eye. “So you finally came back…” came the voice of the woman, young sounding as if she was not more than 17. “What do you want with me?” came Link’s voice, commanding, his sword not wavering from it’s position above her neck. More laughter came, crude sounding, as if the woman was forcing the laugh to a joke that was not funny. “I merely came to see if the rumors were true, if the Hero of Time had truly returned to the land that he had forgot.” She stared at him, her eye’s filled with an anger that Link new was hatred. “The rumors may be true, but that is no reason for you to attack me.” he said, still unwavering. “I was testing you…to see if you were the one I had heard so many stories about. The hero that defeated the evil King of the Garudos, then left this place to go find a single friend.” A smile crept across the woman’s face, then sarcasm filled her voice. “How noble.” “You don’t know me, and you have no right to sneak up on unsuspecting people and attack them.” The woman’s smile faded. “I know more than you think…” With that, she grabbed both his legs, and pushed herself hard so that she slid from below him, however, Link swung his foot around and kicked her in the ribs, knocking her down again. A cough came as she hit the ground. She lay there…motionless. Slowly Link started over to her, but instead of standing above her as he did before, he stepped on her right hand, hard. A yelp came from the girl as she struggled to get her hand up, in the struggle a small knife came from under her hand, concealed so that she could easily stab him when he was not ready. “I saw that knife when you grabbed your cowl from over your face. Either you don’t know what you are doing, or you let me see it.” he stepped off of her hand, so that she may massage it with her other. She gave him a cold hard stare as she did so. “You never wanted to kill me… you don’t have the skill anyways.” The woman jumped to her feat. “What do you mean?” Her face was red with anger. “You look as if you have only been training for about 3 years. Your skills aren’t as fine tuned as my own.” The woman’s face changed from anger to puzzlement. “You’ve changed…” Link looked into her eyes. “Do you know me?” Link scanned her up and down. She removed her garb to reveal her hair, brown. The woman laughed. “That wouldn’t help much…my hair was different then…” With that she reached into her sack she had on her side, and pulled something out. She placed it into her hair, parting it so that one side was favored more than the other. “Saria?…” |

Re: The Legend of Zelda :Differentiation
I loved the last chapter TZM, it seems to get better as it goes on. The first parts were good, but they could be improved when you compare it to the last one you posted ,which was full marks, I really liked it.
I also noticed a few spelling mistakes on the first ones...but that does not matter really. I look forward to the next addition! |

Re: The Legend of Zelda :Differentiation
***
Impa the Sage of Shadow stood within the Hyrulian market place, looking up at the night sky. The stars shown brightly tonight, and the moon was full, illuminating the ground so that all could be seen. However, her kind was not as easily seen as most others are. She was a Shiekian, a race that had almost completely died out from the war 2 decades ago, and they were blessed with the ability of stealth. Beside her was another figure, cloaked. “I do not know if the Princes will wish to speak with you, it may confuse her in a way, you being back and all, she thought you for dead my friend.” said Impa to the shadowy figure, still looking at the twinkling lights of the night. “She will see me if she is ready or not…” the figure said, his voice that of a young man’s, just out of adolescence. “She will remember me, will she not Impa?” Impa smiled, “Yes, she will remember you my friend. She cared for you deeply, in a way that most did not, you were more than a friend to her, you were a loved one. When you had died…” Impa stopped, then looked towards the figure. “The only reason you are alive again is that Zelda had turned back time to a point before Link had gone on his first journey. Only Link and the Sages held these memories of the 7 years that would never be. In the action of turning back time, she never thought that it would bring you back, but… it has been 5 years now, and you kept your living a secret from her until now… why?” “I had my reasons…” “Why are you revealing yourself now?” “The attacks that have been happening… the very reason that Rauru and Zelda brought the Hero of Time back, this is the reason that I wish to make myself known to her once more. I thank you for telling me all that you have my friend, but I must go now.” The figure turned and slowly started off. “Wait, what about the guards?” Impa stammered. A chuckle came from the shadowy figure. “We are the last of the great Shiekians Impa, and yet you forget our ability of stealth?” Impa smiled t this remark. “I will see you later my friend, most likely within the castle itself.” And with that, the figure disappeared, as if into nowhere. Impa looked back up towards the night sky, watching the stars once more. “I hope you know what your doing my friend…” |

Re: The Legend of Zelda :Differentiation
Chapter 3
“Are you sure about doing this my sister?” “Yes…” “Giving them this much power… what for.” “To see what they would do with it.” “And what about the evil…” “He will be released…” “Are you willing to let the world be destroyed?” “We were going to do it anyways… but then they decided to do something about it… but how?…How did they know?” “Rauru…he broke his pact and told them…” “Well we will have to deal with him then…” “And what about the hero?” “He shouldn’t have gotten into this… however…” “However what?” “He’s different now…” “So there is no threat from him?” “Oh there is…but he just doesn’t know it yet…” Link awoke laying on the ground within the lost woods. Saria and he had been walking for a couple of days now, trying to get out of the woods, but it would still be some time before they were out. Link laid there, staring up at the sky, seeing the sun baring down on them. He cursed to himself; he had slept to long! If he had any chance of getting back to the castle before the day was done he would have to leave now! He stood up, looking at what he had to get together. His sword and shield were against the tree nearest him, and his bag of items was near where he had been sleeping. Saria was still asleep, laying next to where Link had been laying. She would have to get up now if they were to leave soon. “Get up.” he said, starting towards his sword and shield, already tying his bag to his belt. Saria didn’t move, she only laid there still sleeping. “Get up Saria.” he said once again, but she still didn’t move. He strapped his sword to his back, and hooked his shield to the scabbard, looking towards her, his anger rising. Finally he unsheathed his sword and plunged it into the ground two inches from her head. “GET UP!!!” Saria jumped up, her dagger in hand, however she still had a drowsy look upon her face. “What did you do that for?!” she yelled, breathing hard from the scare, glaring at him. “You wouldn’t wake.” he said, unsheathing the sword from the ground and placing it back into it’s scabbard. “You nearly cut my head off!” She yelled, still glaring, however, Link didn’t answer. He just finished with his sword and started off. Saria merely stood there, glaring at him as if to pierce his soul. “You need to be more alert to your surroundings, if I had been an enemy, I would have cut it off.” Saria, still stood, not answering. Link stopped walking and turned back. “Look, are you coming or not?” He stared back, waiting for an answer. “What happened to you Link?” asked Saria, rather suddenly. “What?” “Why are you always like that? On edge, like the world is out to get you?” “There’s nothing wrong with me, I…I just grew up that’s all.” he once again started off, seaming as if not to care if she went or stayed anymore. “What happened to the Link I used to know? What happened to him that made him you?” She called, hoping to get him to stop, but he kept on, not answering her. Finally after he didn’t answer, she hurried after him, trying to catch up. It took them the rest of the day to get out of the woods and back to Hyrule Field, during which Saria told Link about what happened within the 5 years he had been gone. “After the Deku Tree died, he left no successor, unlike the time Ganondorf was here. For some reason, the Deku tree sprout never came to be and the magic of the forest died. That’s why I’m older now… it took me awhile to understand why I grew after so long…” “The Deku Tree never told us we would die as soon as we left the Kokiri forest, he knew that if we left we would eventually grow up and die, unlike what we believed. We were the ones that restrained ourselves from leaving, not the forest. I originally believed that I grew before because I was a Hylan, but that was not true… we were all Hylan children.” “Yes, and that’s also the reason my hair is a different color now, with the magic of the forest gone, my hair changed from green to brown….wait…how did you know all that?” asked Saria, as they walked out into the giant clearing that made up Hyrule field. “I guessed…” answered Link, still walking. Saria smiled at him. “At least you’re smarter than I remember.” she said, starting to chuckle a little, but after Link made no answer, she stopped and looked back towards where they were walking. They continued on, sticking to the dirt path that made up a somewhat crude road for traveling, but a road non the less. “If we keep going, we should reach the castle by midnight.” said Link, after several minutes of silence between the two. Saria didn’t answer, instead she stared up at the night sky, watching the stars glimmer down at her. “So beautiful…”she thought aloud, mesmerized by the night sky. “Don’t you think so Link?” “Yeah…beautiful…” Link answered, not even glancing at the sky. Saria didn’t seam to notice, instead she was watching the shooting star that just whizzed by. Link stopped suddenly, listening. “Saria, come here!” he said, whispering to her. “What for?” “Just come here!” Saria came up to Link. “What is it?” Link was looking in all directions, as if he was a deer that had heard something in a bush. Saria watched him for a minute. “What are you doing?” “Shhhhh…I thought I heard something.” “Oh come on, it was just you hearing things.” “I said Shhh!” “Why?” It was to late though, the ground had started to rumble. A few feat from where they stood, a mound of dirt started up, as if it had a life of it’s own, then suddenly, piercing the dirt came a skeletal hand. Link was expecting Saria to scream, however she did the opposite, she readied herself for battle, unsheathing her dagger from the sheath at her waist. As the figure finished climbing out of the ground, Link unsheathed his sword from the scabbard on his back, also readying himself. The figure was a skeleton, magically animated so that it would attack those who passed by. It towered over them at 20 ft. tall, ready to kill them where they stood. “That’s why…” *** Princess Zelda sat within Royal Hyrulian Library, reading one of the many ancient volumes of the History of Hyrule. She had read all of the books in this library many times each, almost to the point of memorization. She paused from reading, looking up from the page to a letter that had been given to her by her attendant Impa. It was signed by “an old friend,” telling her to meet with the person within the Library at 20:00. Zelda didn’t know what to expect when she silently agreed to meet as she was told, she merely went by her gut instinct that what she was doing was the right thing to do. She had been waiting for the last 3 hours within the library, reading through the volumes of the ancient History of Hyrule. It was fool hardy, at most, to rush into a situation such as this, when she had no clue what or whom she may meet. She could only do as she believed right… for it was the only thing any one person could do. In order to meet with this mystery person, the princess had sneak out of her room at 17:00 in order to get in within a 3 hour time frame. Impa had helped her by telling the guards that she would watch this area, so they might not stumble into the library while Zelda was there. This, however, was something Zelda had hoped to do at one time or another, for she hated the ever watching eyes of the guards, making sure the heir to the Hyrulian throne stayed safe. It was increasingly irritating to be watched at every step by the guards, but she knew there intentions were pure, despite her dislike. Zelda looked back down to the volume of the History of Hyrule on the table in front of her, then closed the book. She had lost her place. Taking the book into her hand, she stood up and started over to the book case in witch a small space was for which the book would be placed. “Zelda…” Princess Zelda was caught off guard by the voice, she stopped where she was, turning herself in hopes to find the direction the voice emanated from. “Are you alone Zelda?” Came the voice once again, calm and reassuring, the voice of a young man, just out of puberty. Zelda heard the voice, still trying to find the direction it was coming from, however the echo of the room kept her from knowing where it was coming from. The voice however triggered a memory, that of a young boy she knew, however, she knew it could never be… “You came… I knew you would… after all that Impa had told me.” Zelda stopped spinning, deciding that trying to find the voice was useless from the echoes. He couldn’t be back… “If you are ready, I will now reveal myself…” the shock that this phrase brought Zelda was something she did not expect, It couldn’t be him… he’s dead… A cloaked figure came from behind the book case Zelda was facing, he knew, it seamed that she would stop and look in that direction. Zelda dropped the book in surprise, her body shocked even though she knew who he was before she saw him. His arms were around her at once, for she had feinted and needed to be caught. |

Re: The Legend of Zelda :Differentiation
thanks for reading those of you that have been, here you go.
*** Link stood before the draw bridge that connected Hyrule field to the Hyrule castle town market. Saria and him had parted, her leaving to stay at Kakoriko village, for she “had no business at the castle, and didn’t care to see it anyways.” Link gazed up towards a high window, in hopes that a guards light might be there, signifying that the watch guard could raze the bridge. It had been roughly an hour since Saria and his accouter with a stal child, a fight in which Link didn’t like. Saria had fallen shortly into the battle, becoming another thing in his way while fighting. He had to look over her hide as well as his own, a thing he tried to keep to a minimum now a days. Saria had little skill in the ways of fighting, and Link knew this very well. She was determined as she could be, he could give her that though, for a Sage, she was ready to fight. As far as she had said, several of the sages had simply vanished. Darunia of the Gorons hadn’t been heard from for more than a year, and no one knew what happened to Nabooru. Saria had also mentioned that since the magic of the forest was dead, her powers were of little effect anymore, so her sage hood was of little use. A light flickered within the window and a guard came up to it, looking out for travelers who may need the gate opened. He saw Link easily, which he would have done, even without the help of the lamp, for the moon was so luminous tonight much of the field could easily be seen. “Who is it that wishes to enter the Hyrule Castle Town. I am not permitted to lower the draw bridge unless you have royal business.” Said the guard, in a booming voice. Link stared up at the guards face, memorizing it for later use if needed. “I am Link, a friend of Princess Zelda, she has informed me that she wishes to see me.” Link lied, just hoping to get buy this numbskull of a guard. “What proof do you have?” answered the guard, looking as if he didn’t believe a word that came from Link’s mouth. Link dug into his pouch and pulled out a letter signed from the Princess many years ago. He had kept it only for occasions like this, so he could easily get into the town without holdup. Link flashed the letter to the guard, who was luckily to far away to read what it said. It still had inscribed upon it “This is Link, he is on orders from me to save Hyrule,” something that many didn’t ever believe when it was written, much less now. The guard saw the note, but he didn’t need to read it, the parchment that it had been written on it was that of Princess Zelda’s and he knew it well. “You may pass…” bellowed the guard, rather reluctantly. The drawbridge seamed to groan for a moment then began to lower for Link’s admittance. After the sharp clunk of it hitting the ground on the other side of the river, Link started across. *** Zelda awoke in her bed, sweat trickling down her face.
