♤♡♧◇ This is part two of FaeHyrule-1. Please read that before this. Or don't. ♤♡♧◇

“Ew. Sticky.” The voice of Fay drifted like an omen after being suddenly dropped like a hot potato into another Hyrule.

“Huh?” came the ever so elegant response.

It was weird a non-link was portaled with them. This never happened before.

A moment of confused and awkward silence passed before clarification came. "The surrounding magic: it’s sticky."

This was the answer to the question verbalized, but not the one they all had. Ordon stretched on around them, the eerie lull of night settling in on the heroes.

Twilight began to move and the others followed. All except Fay, who vanished without a sound before they could do a head count.

~

After setting up camp, Fay emerged. He looked slightly uncomfortable as he brushed off seemingly nothing from his tunic and pants and slowly sat to a croutch.

“I suppose it makes sense that you feel so sticky now.” Fay commented, staring right at Twilight.

“Umm… What?”

“What do you mean he feels sticky?” Legend inquired, “If anything I’d say he feels dusty from all the dirt and that pelt, but not sticky.”

“It's the magic. In the air, the ground, the plants, even in Twilight himself. It feels sticky and seems to leave a bit of residue on whatever it touches. It almost feels like eating too much කැරමල් … err, caramel…?”

Wild looked up from his boiling pot at whatever language seemed to resonate and ring in Legend’s head. Four tilted his head with a gleam in his eyes, and Time might’ve reacted based on a small twitch of his hand, but none of the others seemed to react.

“So, “ Fay spoke once more, “Can I have your names? And a possible explanation for this… kerfuffle?”

The chain all looked at each other, then zeroed in on Sky. To his credit, said hero did nothing but blink.

“Oh! Yes, of course! I’m Sky, that's Time, Twilight, Wild, Warriors, Legend, Four and Wind” Sky introduced, pointing to each as he said their names.

Fay expected the tethers of given names, that small twist of magic emulating small candlelights of lifeforce, indicating he now held a thread connected to that person’s existence. What he didn’t expect was how bright and strong the flames would be, not that he'd do anything with them.

“Although, I suppose it wouldn't hurt to tell you those are just nicknames.”

Fay hummed in interest, wondering what made nicknames so powerful, and turned to fully face Sky. The other brought his fancy sword from beside him and onto his lap.

“We’re actually all named Link, “ Sky continued, “Reincarnations of the hero’s spirit from across time. We all fought to save our lands, some of us more than once, but this is the first time we’re doing it as a group. Our current theory as to why we were all gathered is because Hylia needs us all to fight off some big, horrible evil. Though the only evidence we’ve got of that evil are the black-blooded monsters.” Sky seemed saddened by their lack of progress, but tried to hide it with a pleasant topic change.

“Enough about us, care to share anything interesting about yourself?”

Fay hummed, “Well I suppose it's only fair if we trade. I was also originally called Link. I do prefer Fay though. It’s been my name since I met Pond mother. Link never really quite fit.”

“Umm, ” Sky stammers, not sure what, if anything, to say to that. “Okay,” he settles for, the word coming out a bit hollow-sounding.

“So why Fay?” Wind, ever the conversationalist, steamrolls on through the others’ momentary social glitch.

“It’s easier to slip under the radar with. I don’t remember much being Link but sacred sunlight above do you know how worked up people got when they would hear my name? It’s like no one could decide whether I was a plague personified sent by their demons or a god of life that came to rid the world of all inconveniences.”

“Rude” sniffs Wind in a comical and overdramatic charade. Though with a blink, Wind’s face fell into shock.

“Wait! Link!? You’re a Link! Holy fuck no wonder!”

A small, pitiful “language…” came from Twilight. His voice was snuffed out by Wind’s jubilated rambling, though a snort and a couple huffs let him know he was, in fact, heard.

“So I’m guessing we don’t need the whole Fi ceremony?” Warriors joked.

“Good thing too, ” Sky said back in a more exasperated tone than Warriors would expect, “‘Cuz his hero title is Hero of Hyrule and I think that’s just a disaster waiting to happen.”

♤♡♧◇ Plot? What plot? I was supposed to have one of those? And be consistent? Huh? Anywho, my focus is on Hyrule being a fae, not a cohesive world. Juggling all nine of ‘em is hard, blink and you'll miss it time and four. Note: Fae language is google translated Sinhala, it's not accurate or exact in what I want to say. Sorry, it's just pretty. ♤♡♧◇ Kudos to my sister who beta read and helped me get words outa my brain. <3

the thing this somewhat goes with but you don't have to read: FaeHyrule-1

♤♡♧◇

"Heads up!" a voice yelled, causing all eight of them to look up towards the cloaked figure in a tree. An arrow embedded itself between a bokoblin's eyes, effectively killing it. The mysterious hylian then jumped down, landing on another bokoblin, crushing it, and immediately moved to engulf a moblin in flames. In less than a minute, the remaining monsters were all dead. 

This was the first hylian they'd seen since arriving in this desolate Hyrule.

"Y’all good? No injuries?" Closer up they could see a freckled nose and a small grin, but the shadow of the cloak’s hood covered the strangers eyes. 

"Other than a few bruises and scrapes, nope." Time answered for the group.

"Neat. Have some chunks- just in case." the stranger said, tossing a bag over to him. "Crush them in your hand and sprinkle it over injuries. Or just eat 'em. Whichever is easier." Having said that, he turned and left to pluck his arrow from the bokoblin.

"Hey wait, what's your name? Where's the nearest town? We haven't seen anyone for ages!" Wind rushed to get it all out before the stranger could leave. He turned around, putting the arrow back in his quiver. 

"The name's Fay. And I think the nearest town is about two days to the south."

~

Link, who goes by Fay nowadays, would very much like to go home, re-bandage his leg, and go to sleep. Alas, sleep is unavailable, as he needs to stop the deaths of some odd travelers who somehow have no clue where they are. Isn't it common sense to only go on these types of roads if you’re well prepared and know what you're doing? Apparently not. 

He finally shook them off after giving directions to the nearest town and heading in the opposite direction. Or so he thought…

Three days later, he came across another monster camp. That wasn’t unusual. The monsters were a bit tougher and had black blood. That was unusual. Fay defeated them all the same with a sword, fire, and some lightning. 

Which was when the odd group showed up. Again. 

"Hello again! I thought you went a different direction than us." the white-caped one spoke up. 

"You weren't following us, were you?" the blue-scarved one asked with narrowed eyes. 

Fay flicked the black blood off his sword before sheathing it. It seemed to catch the attention of quite a few. "I was, but now I'm here. I’m a traveler.”

The one with a wolf’s pelt blinked, processing that, then glanced at the one with one eye. “We went to the village, but they wouldn't let us in. Something about eyes?”

Fay shrugged, “It happens. People are often spread thin on resources and wary of newcomers. The eyes of Ganon are everywhere after all.”

Before any of them could reply he tilted his head, starting to feel a strange tug on his magic. A dark purple and black portal opened beneath their feet, slurping them all up.

♤♡♧◇

Chunks/ කෑලි (kǣli): crystalized fairy dust. It has a similar Mohs to chalk. The fairies don't have to leave their fountains spending days in a bottle, and hylians don't have to spare precious resources. "Why can't you just eat the chunks? Isn't that the obviously easier option?" you may ask. Well, if you eat the chunk, the effect will be equally spread about. The chunk doesn't know what the fuck you want it to do. if you crush and sprinkle it over an injury, the effects will be stronger and targeted to that one area.

The brain rot wouldn't leave, so I wrote somethin. Credit to my sister who beta read. <3 I write once in a green moon. Today was a green moon.

Some doodle requests.

Twi has a ball and he's going to whip it at your ass and it's gonna hurt.

Wars and a scrappy lion Wind.

Have a shitpost doodle

Maybe something angsty with Wars if you’re still doing art requests?

This counts as angst right?

Warriors picked a fight with Twilight, so it became goal to purely

annoy him.

I did this entirely in one sitting.

Warriors: Just be yourself. Say something nice!

Legend: Which one though? I can’t be both!

Legend: Reasons why Warriors is annoying.

Legend: Number 1) He's annoying.

Legend: Number 2) He keeps stealing my items.

*Legend continues to pull up a 300 slide presentation of 'Why Warriors is annoying'*

The rest of the chain:

Warriors: >:0

Hyrule: Road work ahead? Uh yeah, I sure hope it does

Wild: I opened the window and influenza.

Time: What’s upstairs? Unfortunately stairs can’t talk.

Sky: The bird flu? Uh yeah they tend to do that.

Warriors: Based? Based on what.

Four: Apartment complex? I actually find it quite simple.

Legend: You’re telling me a ginger bred this man?

Wind: You’re telling me a shrimp fired this rice?

Twilight: Wood fired pizza? How’s pizza going to get a job now?

Bonus

Ravio: Chef kiss? Do… Do they really?

Dink: Who broke into the bar and stole our limbo stick. Seriously, how low can you go.

Tales before the storm.

Main Navigation center My Fic MasterList

To my giftee, @mertensia, enjoy this gift I give you. A mostly Legend fic, I have no clue how it became this, but I can say that it goes through a large variety of genres!

˅Words: 5227

Legend stared at the water that surrounded the tiny island of Wind’s era. He hated the salty smell and the cool ocean breeze as it whispered to him. It reminded Legend too much of Marin. The seagulls called from where they circled, eyes sharp in a search of food. They called out to each other in the roaring wind, reminding them of their search.

A huge flock of seagulls in particular circled around an open area further away from the island. Legend narrowed his eyes, blinking wildly. Legend thought he had seen something moving under that big flock of seagulls, but if something was there, it was gone now.

Legend had pushed himself up, getting to stand as everyone around him started to do the same. The only one not moving much being Four, as switches always seemed to affect Four badly. Four still gave a weak thumbs up from where he laid face down in the grass.

“We’re in my era!” Wind excitedly called. “Although, I think we are on Diamond Steppe island though, so I doubt we’ll get on a ship before the next switch. There was also a big octo on this island! I wonder if it’s still there after I killed it…” Wind trailed off thinking.

“So, we’re stuck on an island with no way off?” Time asked, crossing his arms and looking at Wind with his only good eye.

Wind nodded somehow enthusiastically. “Yep!”

“Why the fuck are you so energetic at the thought of us being stranded on an island?!” Legend glared at where Wind was practically vibrating.

“Wow vet, you’re a bit grouchy today.” Warriors noticed, smirking at Legend from the corner of Legend’s eyes.

“Yes. Don’t talk to me today pretty boy, or we’ll see if you are waterproof and can swim.”

“Don’t fight, this isn’t the biggest of islands.” Twilight spoke up, glancing between Legend and Warriors.

Sky glanced at Legend from where he was helping Four to sitting. Four stared at Legend with a neutral expression, unreadable even to Legend.

It’s kind of scary how deadpan Four is sometimes. It’s almost always hard to read his expressions.. Legend’s mind mused for not the first time. 

Legend glanced around the island. He noticed that it had some very steep cliffs with waterfalls falling down. A few palm trees dotted the cliffs and the land, and a large pool of water sat at the bottom, just a few steps away from Legend in the center of the island. Tall cliffs separated the island from the ocean. Flowers danced to a tune that the wind sang.

“Well, fuck.” Legend muttered, noting how there was literally no way to separate himself from the rest of the chain. A joke which Four had originally suggested amused, but somehow stuck with the other heroes. 

“Hey, vet.” Sky’s voice startled Legend out of his trance, and he snapped his gaze to the sleepy hero.

“Oh, hey Sky.” Legend groaned, rubbing his eyes in a hopeless attempt to get the sun out.

Sky smiled at Legend as Legend turned back to the high cliffs of the island. He started to walk towards the lake, moving to sit on the lake’s shore. He heard Sky move to sit next to him. Wild immediately ran over to the cliff to start climbing, Wind yelling at Wild to come back down. Something about a very bad hole being at the top..? Legend couldn’t hear it through the wind.

The sky was mostly clear with patches of clouds floating through, until they vanished over the horizon off into the distance over the endless ocean.

Legend really hated Wind’s era sometimes. As Legend stared at the lake, he could almost imagine that he was just in another link’s era, but the smell and noise brought him back.

Legend could tell that he was giving off ‘don’t talk to me’ vibes, as the other heroes settled down further away. In a grassy patch underneath a few trees. Only Sky sat next to Legend, with Hyrule picking flowers and Four casting a glance at Legend.

“So, I’ve noticed you don’t particularly like Wind’s era. Is it because of the ocean?” Sky asked carefully, looking at Legend curiously.

“Yeah, sure. I’m not a big fan of water.” Legend said in a monotone voice as he stared at the lake.

“Do, do you want to talk about something?” Sky asked again.

Legend blinked, glancing at Sky who had returned to look at the lake. “Like what?”

Sky shrugged. “Anything really. Happy memories? Funny stuff that happened on your adventures? Things you like? You’re always so vague about them. Almost Time or Four level of vague.”

“Did I hear my name mentioned?”

“WHERE THE FUCK DID YOU COME FROM FOUR?!” Legend jerked back at the sudden appearance of the shortest hero. Four merely smirked slightly at Legend’s reaction.

“I have my ways. Anyways, I’ve wandered over to question why Legend looks like he was going to murder the next hylian who talked to him.” Four shrugged.

“And you still came over willingly to talk to Legend?” Sky asked, turning to look at Four.

Four nodded. “I mean, I got nothing else to do. Plus I feel better from the switch already, oh and Warriors was being annoying.” Four moved to sit on Legend’s other side, muttering a ‘scoot over Legend’ as he sat down.

Legend stared at him. “I don’t have a murderous expression.”

“Yeah you totally do, your eyes narrow and your eyebrows pitch together. You frown slightly and stare blankly.” Four explained, saying it as if it was public knowledge.

Sky snickered as Legend stared at Four unable to form words to fight back.

“So, anyways. Before I interrupted you, what were you and Sky talking about?” Four inquired, inclining his head at a slight angle. (It reminded Legend of puppies or even Wolfie. Comparing Four to a puppy would definitely end up in him getting his kneecaps kicked hard, so he decided not to say that thought out loud.)

“Well, I was asking if Legend wanted to talk about any happy memories or good things that happened from his adventures in order to take his mind off of being in the middle of the ocean.” Sky gestured around at the island at the word ‘ocean’. 

“Happy memories? From adventures..?” Legend blinked at Sky. “Adventure’s aren’t supposed to be fun.”

“Well, I mean everyone has to have some good moments. Like for me, it was reuniting with Sun again.” Sky smiled his dopey in love smile at the mention of Sun. “I spent most of my adventure looking for her.”

Four nodded. “I found a family and friends which I could never forget. Even if there were some bittersweet moments.”

Legend blinked at the two of them. He turned to the lake again, scratching his neck in thought.

“I guess a good time was meeting a friend of mine. She was wonderful and amazing. I miss her.. Ravio maybe? He’s an annoyance to deal with, but I guess I would consider him a friend.”

“See, everyone has some good moments in their life.” Sky grinned.

“Speaking of Sun, do you have any relationships Legend?” Four asked suddenly.

Legend turned to Four at the unexpected question. “Where did that come from Smithy? Got someone on your mind?” He added the sarcastic comment.

Four shrugged. “I mean, I had a friend I knew, but no relationships for me. I remembered my friend and I just thought of that question. Plus, you have like a bajillion rings. Surely not all are from dungeons.” “You underestimate how many dungeons gave me rings.”

“Oh Hylia.”

Legend chuckled at Four’s face. “No, most of them are from dungeons though. Plus, I have some many more in my bag. But this one,” He held up his hand, pointing to a plain, silver ring. Small patterns that made it look like leaves curled inwards to a simple flower. “I made this. It was in memory of one of my friends..” Legend looked at the ring sadly.

“Okay, now you’re sad again. This is supposed to be a bonding moment!” Sky gently shoved Legend affectionately.

Legend grinned at Sky. “Have I ever told you about my ability to turn into a painting?”

Both Sky and Four visibly paused, doing a double take.

“I’m sorry, what?” Sky blinked at Legend. Four hummed, staring at Legend in hopes of him continuing.

Legend chuckled. “And that is all I’m going to say.” He grinned at Sky’s expression.

“I’m so proud of you Legend.” Four wiped away fake tears. “You’re vagueness is beautiful.”

Sky whipped his head to Four. “Why are you encouraging this?!”

Legend laughed, Four even joining in. Sky chuckled at their laughter.

“Okay but I was seriously a painting once.” Four shrugged. “I mean, I’ve seen the world being as small as a mouse and fought a giant sphere with a single big eye. I can see that happening to one of us.” Sky stared at Four. “I would’ve marked down one of my weirdest experiences would’ve been being able to sit on a bench and get healed, but now I’m really questioning things.”

Legend smirked. “I also was once on the run from soldiers.”

Four blinked at Legend. “Oh, so that’s why I saw a bunch of ‘wanted’ posters of you.”

Legend shook his head sadly. “They never can get my face right. Especially my nose.”

“One time Fi told me to ‘charge my wii batteries’, whatever that means..”

Legend blinked at Sky.

Sky shrugged. “My reaction entirely.”

Four chuckled quietly, as if he was sharing a secret with himself.

Legend hummed a moment, going through his memories to find any strange occurrences he had found himself in.

A comfortable silence fell as Legend tried to remember his adventures. He glanced at Four, his eyes instinctively moving to the Four Sword. 

“I once had to team up with me, myself and I to fight in a kingdom who only cares about fashion. The only reason why I was there was because a princess was cursed to wear something ‘ugly’.” Legend recalled.

“Sounds familiar.” Four mused quietly.

Sky smiled, his eyes never leaving the small fish that danced in the clear water.

Silence fell again, only being broken by Twilight’s shout of WILD! DON’T DO THAT!’ and Wild’s response of ‘I can do whatever he wanted, thank you very much’ from where he sat at the edge of the cliff. Legend rolled his eyes at the (unfortunately) common occurrence.

Legend heard heavy feet falling behind him and turned. Meeting the gaze of Time as he looked at the heroes with his good eye. “I once fought the moon.”

Four turned to look at Time. “It’s kind of impressive how you can say that with such a deadpan expression.”

Time shrugged. “Well, I’ve come to tell you that Wild is cooking.”

“Great. I’m starving.” Legend stood up and stretched. He blinked, noticing at the sudden darkness that had appeared. Dark, stormy clouds drifted along the sky, different then how it was when they had first arrived. Legend also noticed the lack of noise, even the wind had calmed down to a quiet hum. 

I forgot we were even on an island.. Legend blinked at the revelation.

“Had it always been this stormy looking?” Four asked, voicing Legend’s own thoughts out loud.

Time glanced up. “No, and it has only been getting worse. Wind thinks it might be a storm, but a storm doesn’t happen this fast.”

Sky frowned. “This storm is giving me a strange feeling. Perhaps we should get up quicker and get over to eat Wild’s delicious food.”

“You just want to eat Wild’s cooking.” Legend joked, as Four stood up. “But yeah, the quicker we can get food and hopefully get off this island, the better.”

Legend walked over to the rest of the chain, where Wild’s cooking wafted around as Wild sat at a fire. Hyrule sat nearby, carefully looking at the flowers he had collected. Twilight kept glancing nervously at the sky, and Wind chatted to no one and everyone, waving his hands in exaggerated motions. Warriors glanced at Legend as Time lead them back.

“You good now Vet? Not going to murder anyone now?” Warriors cocked his eyebrow.

“Wouldn’t you like to know pretty boy.” Legend shot back.

“Glad to see you back to your sarcastic self.” Warriors replied.

Legend huffed amused.

“I have some fish soup for all of you.” Wild handed out the soup to everyone.

No one wasted any time digging into the soup. As Legend ate, he saw a singular seagull landing in a nearby tree.

Marin, I hope wherever you are, you are as happy.

***

As they finished eating their stew, Wind glanced at the sky nervously. It rumbled ominously, which gave Legend a chill. He could recognize the starting of a boss battle, even if he had no clue where it was.

“Wind, could this storm be signaling a boss battle?” Legend inquired, giving Wild his cleaned bowl.

Wind blinked at the sky, “it shouldn’t be, I’ve already taken care of the boss in this area… unless.. It somehow returned.”

“Like the blood moon in my time?” Wild asked, shifting through his sheikah slate in search of something.

Wind nodded. “Yeah, the big problem is that if the boss did return, we need a boat to defeat it. Something we currently do not have.”

Time looked at the young sailor. “What was the boss in this area Wind?” He rumbled.

“A very big octo. Very large, you can always tell when one is near because it starts to pour rain hard and water around it starts to form a whirlpool.” Wind explained, glancing towards the ocean nervously when rain started to pour from the sky.

Oh fuck. I don’t want to have to deal with ANOTHER boss. Legend groaned inwards quietly. I’ve already had to deal with so many..

Wind flinched as a rumble sounded from the ocean, Wild rushed to the edge of the island, peering into the waters curiously. He stumbled back quickly enough.

“There is a whirlpool. A very big one. I have a feeling that the Octo is still here-” Wild spoke, grabbing his bow and his slate.

“Great, we’re going to have to fight it aren’t we?” Legend groaned, moving to grab his bag of items. He shuffled through it looking for, preferably something long ranged. He got what he was looking for, a fire rod and ice rod was produced. But he frowned, noting that it might not be a good idea over open water.

“Well, yes, if we plan on leaving this island or leaving ourselves open to attacks. But the downside is that we’re going to need a boat to fight it..” Wind shuffled his feet as he tightened his grip on his sword.

“We can’t just use the island to shoot from afar?” Wild inquired, tilting his head.

“I mean, I guess we could..? But I have never tried that. All the times I had fought them, I had a boat that I sailed in.” “Tetra’s boat?” Sky asked and Legend glanced up to him. His hair was plastered to his face and his cloth around his next billowed in the harsh winds. His hand was on the mastersword’s hilt, and his eyes were narrowed in the harsh wind.

“Nope, someone else.”

Legend hummed, going back to his bag in search of a weapon, he finally stumbled upon what he was looking for. A bow. Legend didn’t know which adventure he got this particular bow, he thinks his first adventure, but the bow itself wasn’t something grand. Instead, it was the arrows. Specifically bomb arrows. He flourished his bow and started counting his arrows that he had.

100 arrows? Hmm, I swore I had more.. Maybe not, but I know.. Aha! I found the rest of my arrows. I’ll only be able to hold 70 in my quiver though. Legend grabbed 60 bomb arrows and 10 regular arrows. Bomb arrows are usually pretty effective against big targets right?

“Hey Wind, any weak points in this thing?” Four called, his voice much further away then before. Legend glanced up. Four was at the edge of the island using his bow and shooting a giant rising shape.

That… is a very big octorok. Legend blinked at the sheer size of it. It made Ganondorf look tiny, even puny, compared to the octorok. Legend noticed that the octorok was where the huge swarm of seagulls had circled just moments before.

“Yeah! Aim for the eyes!!” Wind called, and Legend turned to see Wind using his bow and arrows, all of them aimed for the octo’s eyes. Legend grabbed his bag and put it on as he finished sorting through his arrows.

Legend hurried over, pulling his bow back and shooting a bomb arrow. It landed perfectly on the octo’s top right eye. It was only missing one other eye, being shot at by Time moments earlier.

“Jeez Wind, how do this things get so big in your Hyrule?” Warriors exclaimed, ducking one of the octo’s tentacles as it swiped at him.

“It’s probably since we’re in an ocean! They typically like water.” Legend shot at Warriors.

“Yeah, but your name isn’t Wind! I asked Wind!”

“Sounds like someone is just upset that they asked a really obvious question.”

“Legend duck!” Twilight’s yell sounded out from Legend’s left. Legend on instinct rolled right, just barely being missed by a tentacle. Lightning crackled in the stormy sky.

“You okay?” Hyrule bent over to peer at Legend, holding his bow at his side and helping Legend up.

“Yup, just keep shooting Rulie!” Legend grabbed another arrow and shot at the Octo.

Hyrule joined him, shooting off arrows. 

Then 5 eyes went down to 3, then 2. Every time the arrow made its mark, it would jiggle and shake.

Four yelped when a tentacle caught him off guard. He was thrown backwards, and Hyrule instantly went back to go and help Four. Legend felt his frustration grow more as Sky was next to be caught by the tentacles.

The arrow landed. 1 more eye to go.

By now, the octo has been having to swerve its head to spot the heroes, wildly swinging its tentacles in wide arcs in hopes of catching some unsuspecting prey. Legend dodged a swinging tentacle, glancing back up to see Wind landing the final arrow on the octo.

It didn’t go down.

“It must have an eye on it’s back side!” Wind exclaimed, and indeed, the octo did. Legend saw the eye as it swiveled away, clearly knowing better then to turn their direction. It kept swinging it’s tentacles wildly, with fast and practiced movements.

“How are we going to get it though?” Warriors shouted over the roaring wind.

Legend ducked from the tentacles again, noting its attacking style. 

I could maybe use my mermaid suit or flippers, but I wouldn’t be able to climb back on the island due to all of its cliffs. And clearly there are no hookshot places, or at least from where I can see. I mean, maybe the trees but I doubt my hookshot would work. I could use its tentacles to scale the body and attack from the back. But then back to the ‘how will I get back up here?’ question.

Legend sighed at his idea, seeing no other choice, he decided that he would have to do it. So when the octo swung its tentacles again, Legend hopped onto it’s slimy skin. Clinging onto it for his dear life, he started to scale the monstrosity.

It proved to be a task indeed. It certainly could feel Legend there, and definitely did not want Legend there. It used its tentacles to whack Legend off, but Legend stood strong, Just barely over the wind, he could hear his fellow heroes shouting from the island, but he paid them no mind.

Legend kept losing his grip as he climbed, he kept sliding down minisculely. Soon, however, Legend had made it to the shoulder of the octo. He glanced up, noting how high up the cliff edge was from where he clutched the octo’s skin desperately. Sky was yelling something with a worried expression, but Legend couldn’t hear him. Water crashed against his legs on the small lip where the tentacle connected to the octo. 

Well, I’m already down here. How am I going to get back up there?

Legend scrunched his nose in concentration as he inched along the lip of the octo. Having to keep his eyes open for incoming tentacles, he ducked as one came fast towards him. It only resulted in the Octo hitting itself. As Legend finally was able to inch all the way to the back side, he saw the final eye. Not far from it, it blinked and stared at him as he raised his bow. Knocking an arrow with one hand was tough, but something that Legend taught himself to do. He didn’t recall which adventure… maybe 4? Shaking his head, he took careful aim and made sure to keep a tight grip as to not fall into the swirling whirlpool below. He shot his arrow, watching as it hit its mark head on.

The octo let out a hideous noise, something between Wild’s octos and Four’s octos. Its tentacles  curled in on itself, and it shook violently. Legend let out a surprised squeak at the sudden jiggling movement of the Octo. It’s eyes started to glow a bright blue and it slowly started to sink below the waves. Legend yelped, getting swept off by the water as he lost his footing.

By instinct, Legend grabbed his mermaid tail from his bag and instantly the familiar feel of the tail washed over him. Reminded Legend of taking a warm, bubbly bath and the warm water washing over his bottom half. His top half was not affected, and in fact felt like it was going to become a frozen hero popsicle. The ocean water curled around him, it’s presence like an overwhelming quilt that Ravio always brought him. Opening his eyes, he was greeted by the blank darkness of Wind’s Ocean. He thought he saw some fish swimming past, but they seemed more like Hyrule’s Zoras more than anything. Big fish with ugly faces and sharp teeth… maybe… 

Squinting, Legend glanced around, blinking at the same darkness that surrounded him. He yelped, feeling something tugging him backwards and glanced back. And he instantly regret it.

The giant octo stared right at him, most likely into his soul with those blank, glowing eyes. Legend beat his tail, swiftly moving further away from the octo, hopefully out of the whirlpool that it created, and turned back.

The octo had vanished from sight. Legend blinked, rubbing his eyes before blinking again.

What the fuck? Whom the fuck? Why the fuck? He shrugged, breathing deeply. I mean- I guess that’s the most anticlimactic boss ending I’ve ever seen. And that’s really saying something. Legend didn't know how long he paddled there, blinking at the haze of the ocean, unable to tell what was up or down. Because, apparently, mermaids DON’T have night vision- or at least underwater vision. Which was stupid in Legend’s opinion, since they literally LIVE underwater. It wasn’t until light started streaming from above him, did Legend start to move again.

By then, Legend was sure he was going to freeze to death. His glittering red tail and fins swept through the water as he swam up, but he could feel the chill settling into his bones. They ached, and he could barely feel his arms. 

As he surfaced, he felt the warmth of the sun settled onto him. The second thing that hit him was the call of the seagulls, which Legend could feel his heart aching at the sound.

He also could hear the panicked voices of his fellow heroes. Even Warriors, which was pretty surprising considering how much Legend did to get into a fight with him, was calling out his name. As he opened his eyes, he was greeted by a much odd sight.

Wind was hanging from the cliff with his grappling hook secured on a tree, Wild was on the wall itself, wearing a beanie sort of thing and boots. (Still had his blue tunic on though-) Warriors was pacing at the edge of the cliff with Time standing and watching worriedly. Legend was pretty sure that was the most worried expression he has ever seen on Time. Sky, Hyrule and Four were no where to be found. And Twilight was very clearly panicking. Skirting around the edges and calling his name frantically and just seemingly on the edge of a panic attack.

Huh, they really seem to care about me.. Even Warriors looks panicked. I would assume that Hyrule would be panicking if he wasn’t helping Four and Sky. They both looked like they took some hard hits. As Legend swam over, he heard the cries of relief from Wild and Wind on the cliff.

“Legend! Your okay! Oh thank the goddess!!” Twilight yelled from the top of the cliff.

“WHAT?!” Legend called back, pretending not to hear him. As he neared the edge, he saw Wind’s eyes widen. He quickly took his mermaid tail and shoved it back into his bag again. He hoisted himself up, pulling out his grappling hook to find out- that yes it does clutch onto the cliff wall.

“Next time we fight a boss, can we fight it on land?” Legend muttered as he started climbing. “Especially when the only piece of land has fucking steep cliffs.” 

Wind hopped up next to him as they climbed. “Hey- it’s not as bad as the ones in Wild’s time though. You recall that Hindox on top of the really big hill?”

“Yes. I also recall how Wild threw a really big boulder at it- and bombs.”

“Hey! It was a situation where it was called for!”

“It really wasn’t called for.” Legend shot back as he got near the top. Time reached down and helped Legend up. Warriors got Wind up, and Wild just got himself.

Instantly, Legend was crushed by fur. “Oof- Twilight! Stop- your.. CRUSHING ME!-” He yelped as the bear (wolf?) hug only got tighter.

“You worried us!” Twilight cried. “If Sky and Four hadn’t been injured, Hyrule would be panicking just as much as I was!” Legend choked out a weak “I can’t breath” before the hug was stopped. Putting Legend back on the ground with only some minor broken bones. He stood there gasping for breath after that death grip of a hug. Before smirking.

“Even Warriors was panicking?” Legend snarked, giving Warriors a sideways glance mirthfully.

Warriors stared back at Legend. “I was worried, but now I’m regretting it.”

“You do care!” Legend dramatically gasped.

“You’re as dramatic as Four.”

“I’ve learned from the best.”

Legend ganced around, noting that Time, Warriors, Wind, Wild and Twilight were mostly uninjured. (With Warriors having some suction cup markings on his face.) He saw Hyrule by the campfire, and ran over. Ignoring the muttered 'wow what are we, boko fodder?’ from Warriors.

“Hyrule!” Legend said as he neared his descendant. Hyrule glanced up.

“Legend! You’re okay! You were down there for so long! I was worried!” Hyrule, much like Twilight, hugged Legend very tightly. As if he planned to never let go. As he pulled away, he instantly went to checking for wounds. 

“Are you hurt? Did the octo get anything? On a scale from 1-10, how are you feeling? Do you need a potion?” Hyrule worried, circling around Legend like a hawk and its prey. 

“I’m fine. How is Four and Sky?” Legend asked, peering at the two heroes.

Four looked peaceful, his eyes closed shut and he laid splayed out on the ground. Sky was more awake, leaning heavily at the base of the tree. He glancing at Legend, blinking slowly.

“Well, Four was hit hard enough to be knocked unconscious, Sky has a minor concussion. Nothing too bad. Well, actually it’s not good that they got injured, but like.. It’s not serious injuries.” Hyrule waved his hand over towards Four and Sky, his eyes leaving Legend to glance over towards them.

“Since our dinner was RUDELY INTERRUPTED,” Wild hopped over to his mostly unfinished bowl, glancing angrily at the previous place where the octo had been, “I say we finish up and just vibe here until the next shift!”

“How are you still not finished with that? I finished mine hours ago!” “Some of us don’t eat as fast as you, not all of us have that kind of ability. I certainly didn’t get it with my hero licence.”

“Hey, what’s that implying?!”

“Guys, chill.” Wind walked over to Legend with a pondering look on his face.

“Hey, what’s up Wind?” Legend asked, glancing at the pirate.

“That octo- it was different…” Legend hummed, and when Wind didn’t continue, Legend looked over to see the sailor asleep next to him, his back propped up to the stump.

He smiled quietly, leaning back to watch the sun set below the horizon. A seagull perched nearby, fixing him with strikingly similar cool amber eyes. Legend choked quietly, tears starting to pool at the edges of his vision.

Marin, I miss you. I’m sorry.

Legend closed his eyes, feeling the grass below him and the call of the seagulls.

Then suddenly, he was free.

Bonus

“You know, islands remind me of an old friend of mine- her name was Marin.” Legend mumbled quietly, and felt Sky’s arms wrap around him.

“I’m sorry.” Sky whispered, Legend could feel the pitying glance that Four shot him. Legend could feel himself shaking, tears starting to form at the corners of his eyes.

“Oh- Marin? You mean the seagull lover? I knew her- she’s was kinda odd…” Warriors voice piped up from literally behind them.

Legend whipped his head around so fast, he could’ve snapped his neck for all he knew.

“You what.”

Warriors stared at Legend with a bored expression.

“Yeah- showed up in the War, right into the middle of battle, might I add. Almost cut her head off, he had appeared outta nowhere.” Warriors drowsed, peering at the trio of heroes staring at him with a mixture of interest (Four), shock (Sky), and fury with a mix of shock and joy (Legend).

“Okay, first of all Warriors. What the FUCK-”

EXTRA EXTRA BONUS (This was orginally going to go in, but it was much better as an outtake.)

Then suddenly, he was free.

And his face was mashed into the mud.

He coughed and sputtered, shaking himself of the mud.

“Oh hey- we’re in my hyrule!” Wild exclaimed.

“WHY DID I HAVE TO LAND IN MUD?!” came Warriors’s shriek.

Legend spat out a chunk of mud, standing up with as much grace as he had respect for the goddess. (spoiler alert, it was none.) And groaned at the sunny day that greeted him.

He smirked upon noticing Warriors appearance. Mud caked his hair and his clothes where a rumpled mess.

“Looks like pretty boy isn’t pretty any more. I guess now your nickname is boy.” “LEGEND I SWEAR TO THE GODDESS-” “You know I don’t care about the goddess Warriors.” “LEGEND!”

Four: Now thats unpeelable.

My Fic MasterList

Also, thanks to @arsonisticscholar with THIS POST for inspiring this fic. It was really fun to write!

I wanted to try out some different headcanons and ideas for Four's pov, so here: (Also Four is a they/them) Red Green Blue Vio Shadow Four Another thing, Four is not a DID system. Four is their own person (Hylian?) and the colors (Plus shadow) ARE Four. Four is not the colors. Their eyes change depending on which trait is being shown. Like they shine more red when They're being compassionate and more violet when they are strategizing. Also, Shadow is in Four's shadow, and has no physical form. But he is there for the ride!

It started out innocently enough.

But then, Vio ruined everything. Because of course that sneaky dramatic bastard did.

Four had been traveling with the past heroes for, well a while now. (Ha that rhymed. Shut up Green.) And Four had not revealed his ability to split. But, since they had grown and considered the heroes brothers, they wanted to tell them. So, they sat off to the side of the campfire one day, thinking about how they wanted to tell the other heroes.

We could just split in front of them! With no reason? It would make more sense to do it in a battle. Yeah, plus you need more flare. How about we just bring it up in one of their 'comparing adventures' talk? Doubt they would even hear us over Warrior's loud mouth. Hey don't be so mean Blue!

Four hummed quietly, jolting when they felt a hand on their shoulder. Looking up, they met Wild's scarred face. He held out a bowl of soup, and Four took it carefully. Doing their best to not spill it. As they ate their soup, which tasted like potatoes and vegetables, they tuned back in to the colors and Shadow. The lack of Vio was disturbing, as he had not said a word yet.

What if we told all the links separately, make them think only they know. Vio finally chimed in. Yes! Now that's the kind of flare and drama we want.

Uh, that's kind of mean.. Yeah, I agree with Red. They're our brothers! You son of a bitch. I'm in.

So it's three against two, Four?

I mean, that is kind of mean.. but also would be really funny.

Four against two. Nice pun. No one cares Green. I care! Who we telling first? Why not do Wind first? I always feel like Wind is left out of all secrets.

Four smiled, looking at Wind as he waved his hands energetically as he talked with Hyrule.

The day was sunny and warm. Wind strolled next to Four in the back of the line. They had been in an unknown time, somewhere between Twilight and Time, and as they strolled through Hyrule Field, Four cleared his throat.

"Hey Wind?" Wind turned to look at Four, who was glancing around like he was scared of someone eavesdropping. Wind glanced at the other heroes, the closest being Warriors and Legend, both loudly arguing over something again.

"Yeah? What's up Four?"

"I, I have a secret that I haven't told anyone." Four started and Wind perked up curiously. Normally, Wind isn't the first person to trust with secrets, as he had been apparently the last to know about Wolfie. He was curious and kind of excited that Four was trusting him.

"You can count on me to keep your secret!" Wind whispered quietly. "I promise no one else will ever know or hear it from my mouth!"

Four smiled, his multicolored eyes flashing more purple (Four always claimed that it was violet, like one of the colors on his tunic.) then the normal swirl.

"I am four raccoons in a trench coat. I guess five raccoons? But really the fifth doesn't count."

(Shadow blew in an offended gasp and huffed quietly.)

Wind blinked momentarily, his brain trying to process what Four just said.

"Wait, you mean you're not even Hylian?!" Wind whispered.

Four just smirked. "I guess that's up to your interpretation."

Then Four walked in silence, leaving Wind to brew over the words. He never clarified what he meant.

Next on the list was Time. But Four also wanted to get another hero. So They devised a plan to tell Time during one of the watches, while another hero was awake.

They waited a while, keeping a careful eye out on Time's watch for any awake heroes. They finally got the moment. It was in Wild's time, Time was sitting staring at the fire, and Warriors was moving just a little to much to be asleep. In fact, Four noticed his eyes fluttering open and closed.

***

Time was staring at the fire, his ears perked for strange noises. He heard Warriors shuffling a bit, and Sky snored quietly next to Hyrule. Suddenly, he heard groaning and shuffling of someone getting up. Turning around, he saw Four blearily walk towards him and taking a seat next to him. Facing the fire. Its light cast a soft glow on the surrounding heroes, bathing Warriors and Wild in an orange light, as they were the closest to the fire.

"Hello there little one." Time murmured as Four sat next to him.

"Hey Time? I need to tell you something." Four begain in a slightly husky voice. Time quietly turned to face Four curiously and waited for him to continue.

"I haven't told anyone yet... but I can split." Four explained quietly. Time tilted his head waiting for Four to explain.

"I can like, split myself and become four different versions of, well, myself. All my adventures had something to do with the spliting. Due to one of my adventures, I was split for so long that I sometimes gets headaches if I don't split for a while." Four explained, holding out his hands to the fire.

"Have you split recently?" Time asked, seeing Four nod.

"Yeah. I have."

They both sat in silence for a bit. Then Time asked a question that was burning inside of him.

"Does anyone else know?" Time asked.

Four shook his head. "No, not yet."

Time nodded. "Take your time in telling them."

They sat in silence again, listening to the crackling of the fire. Four got up and excused himself, walking back to his sleeping bag. Time stopped him before he went.

"Hey Four? Thank you for being brave and telling me." Time smiled gently.

Four smiled back, tucking himself in. Three down, six to go.

***

Warriors was very sure that he wasn't meant to hear that conversation, but as Time gently woke him up for the next shift, he sat quietly by the fire. His eyes flicking towards the smallest hero's form sleeping quietly.

He wondered if he should tell Four he over heard or not. He descided that Four would tell him later anyways, and he should respect his space, but he also didn't want to lie to his fellow hero.

He sighed quietly, looking up to the star filled sky.

What should I do?

Warriors did in fact tell Four the truth the next day, and was met with a lot less hostility then he was expecting. Just a smiled and a 'Thank you for telling me'.

It was after telling Time and Warriors that another joined the train of supporting the idea.

This is actually pretty fun! See, I knew you would see sense you fellow chaos incarnate. I mean, it is kind of fun, but I still feel a little bad about lying to them. You'll understand soon Green. That's ominous.

***

Hyrule yawned blinking at the shining sun. He covered his eyes at the bright light, taking a moment to gather where he was.

He saw the familiar walls of Malon's and Time's house spread before him. Noticing that Wind had probably already woken up and Four was quietly reading a book in the corner. Four glanced up at him as he stretched, sitting up in the comfortable bed. He could feel his magic replenished after the battle last night, ready and hovering at his fingertips ready to be used.

"Hey, good morning Hyrule. Did you sleep well?" Four asked, his eyes gleaming red and green in the sunlight.

Hyrule nodded. "Yeah. I am back to my full strength again." Hyrule smiled, cracking his neck quietly.

Four smiled, starting to stand up and leave, but he stopped in the doorway. Turning, Four stared at Hyrule with an intense expression.

"Hey Hyrule? Can I tell you something?" Hyrule tilted his head much like what Wolfie does.

"Yeah of course!"

"Well, hmmm. How do I phrase this... Take my name, but litterally." Four explained.

Hyrule blinked not knowing how to take that information. "Uh wh-" Hyrule trailed off noticing Four was already gone. He sat in the bed staring at the doorway blankly for a few minutes, processing what just happened. He came down a bit later, giving Four a confused glance as he sat down. Soon though, his attention was on all the delicious food Wild and Malon had made.

Four found Wild as he sat on top of the roof. A crisp cool air ruffled his long hair as he watched the sky. Below Wild could see the village laid out, seeing Legend and Twilight and some of the other heroes rushing to and fro in Hateno Village.

Four sat next to Wild, the smaller not making much noise as they surveyed the land.

"Hey Wild? Can I tell you something?" Four asked suddenly, and Wild blinked, jerking his head towards the smaller hero.

"Huh? Oh. Yeah! Of course what's up?"

Four scratched his neck, his eyes gleaming a mix of red and violet. (Wild swears that's violet. Violet is so much more bluer then purple!) "Okay, so imagine yourself, but there are more of you." Four simply said, gestering to himself. Wild stared at him blankly. "That's my life."

They sat in silence as the rest of the heroes marched back from a successful shopping trip. Trying to understand what Four had said kept Wild thinking about it and getting distracted. He was so distracted that he almost cut himself. Twilight glanced at him worriedly and he brushed it off as 'just being happy to be back!'.

Wild couldn't wrap his head around it.

If there were more of me, that would be everyone's worse nightmare.

Legend always thought Four was a little odd. His dislike of magic swords, his height, his hatred of a special pepper (Legend would even call it a fear), muttering to himself and so on. He always considered himself to be very observant, knowing when to push and when to pull, but he didn't know what to do about Four. The oddest part though was that Four was... somehow familiar to Legend which frankly scared him.

It wasn't until Four had slide up to him did he pay any mind to his thoughts. He noticed Four looking nervous, but he could also see something else well hidden in his eyes. Mischief.

"Oh no, what have you, Wind, Hyrule or Wild done now." Legend said, crossing his arms amused. Four grinned.

"Well, I haven't done anything yet. But I wanted to tell you something." Four said. Legend stared at the colorful hero.

"So, basically I can be in multiple places at once." Four said, and Legend stared at Four not knowing how to process that.

(I mean, you're not technically wrong..)

Four grinned at Legend's expression, hopping off and leaving a flabbergasted Legend staring after him. Then Legend's eyes flickered over to see Wild just as Twilight called out.

"WAIT WILD NO-"

Twilight hummed as he strolled through the street, Four stood close nearby as they hurried. There weren't many hylians out, so they were easily able to navigate through.

"All we need is some apples.." Twilight said thoughtfully, his eyes scanning for the red fruit.

Four gasped. "I see some over there" He pointed to a green stand with the red fruit. Twilight and Four hurried over, buying the apples and leaving some rupees for the owner.

"We have everything Wild asked for, lets go back to the inn." Twilight smiled, putting the apples in a bag. As the two made their way over to the inn, Four nudged Twilight. Twilight looked down at Four who pointed towards the nearby forest.

"Four? Something wrong?" Twilight asked. Four thought a moment.

"Well, first I want to show you something and second, I need to do something first." Four said, dragging Twilight over.

The two moved into the forest, finding a clearing surrounded by a thick wall of trees.

"Here." Four said, and Twilight glanced around noting that it was just leaves, rocks and trees.

"What?-" Twilight started, looking back at Four to see him draw his blade and point it towards the sky. A sudden flash of light erupted and Twilight stood there blinking dazedly as Four glowed several different colors and noticed how they split off. When the light cleared, Twilight blinked staring at now four separate Fours. Each looked exactly the same with the only difference being their main theme of color. Twilight noticed how all the Fours wore seperate clothes, the blue one wearing all blue, the green one wearing all green, and so on. There were a green one, a blue one, a purple one, and a red one. All their headbands were different colors also, each one corresponding to their color scheme. Twilight also noticed that none of the four Fours were wearing the colorful tunic, as they all had one color from the orginal tunic.

"Uhm-" Twilight started before he was interrupted by the blue Four.

"Wow Vio, very creative idea. Totally unoriginal. I'm sure that none of us ever possibly thought of this." The blue Four complained.

"I didn't see you coming up with any ideas!" Vio, or the purple Four resorted.

"Hey, now we don't need to fight right? I mean I'm sure Twilight is very confused." The red Four stated, waving his hands and getting between the blue Four and Vio.

The final one, one wearing a green tunic, walked up to Twilight. "Hi, sorry about them. They are... my siblings? Me? I'll just call them siblings. Hi, I'm Green, I know a very creative name, you can thank Red. The two arguing over there is Blue and Vio, and the one who is trying to stop them is Red." Green waved. "Okay now how to explain? Well we are Four. Its as simple as that. If you want more details, you can probably ask Vio, but unless you have all day to listen, I wouldn't recommend."

"Now the colors make sense I guess." Twilight chuckled.

Red grinned at him, Blue huffed and crossed his arms, Green laughed and Vio shot Twilight an unreadble expression.

"No one else knows about this." Vio started. Red chimed in. "Yeah we need you to keep a secret!"

Blue and Green looked slightly uncomforable, but nodded. Green a half second later then Blue. Twilight smiled.

"You can count on me!"

Four grinned. Eight down, one more to go! Okay, I agree this is fun. See I knew you would see sense soon! We're running out of things to say... Why don't we just tell Sky the truth. But we have been? No no no. Not like that... Oh that's evil. What can I say, I've been practicing. And you've had one of the best tutors! Four rolled his eyes playfully.

He tried to approach Sky several times, but never was able to get close enough yet. He was finally able to get his chance when the chain had landed on Tetra's ship. Wind had eagerly introduced the heroes to Tetra before, so Tetra didn't even bat an eye at the sudden arrivals. Instantly, she let them settle down (with the exception of Wind who she instantly put to work and he energetically followed) in the hull of the ship. The other heroes were up on the deck, with the only ones being Legend and Sky. The former hiding somewhere in the back end of the hull and the former being in the front of the hull.

Four moved towards Sky, stopping to stand right next to him.

Sky looked up at Four, smiling weakly. Four waved and stood next to Sky, leaning over to take a closer look at what Sky was doing. Sky had been carving a small wooden statue. Upon a closer look, Four noticed that it looked eerily like Tetra.

"Hey Four." Sky smiled tiredly.

Four smiled. "Hey, I wanted to tell you something."

"Do I tell the others? No? My lips are shut!" Sky sat straight miming zipping his lips.

"I've been telling the heroes my secret but also telling them that they are the only one who knows. Do what you what you will with this information." Four said, grinning as they saw Sky stiffen, and simply turned away and walked off.

Sky stared after the small colorful hero, blinking wildly thinking over what Four just said.

Wait I'm sorry. What? What secret?! Sky shook his head, confusion sweeping over him.

Well, I guess that makes sense why all the heroes have been doing their best to help Four, or at least Time, Warriors, Legend and Twilight...

**

Four practically cackled out of sight at the entire antics. He could hear the colors also laughing and snorting at the full on confusion that was going on.

You know we're going to get busted soon right? Yeah, but it was fun and so worth it. It was fun! Now, should we make a bet to see how long it takes for them to find out? We literally share a wallet. Yeah but its still funny. I would say maybe two weeks? Nah gotta be shorter then that. What about until our next switch! That's not very specific.

In the end, both Red and Four were right, as it was at the next switch, two weeks later, that they were busted.

But they all had their fun.

Sky: See, you gotta stay positive, even in the worst of times!

Hyrule, joining in: I agree with that statement.

Warriors: How are you so positive while we’re going to be sacrificed??

Wind No- no don’t do it Wind… WIND!!!

My Fics Masterlist

Twilight sighed as watched Wild jump off the tree for the seventh time in the last hour.

Currently, they were relaxing (as much as they could as heroes) in Wild’s time. They sat at a stable. A large open field sat around the stable where some wild horses grazed.

Wild was being the normal menace he is, was riding around the fields at top speed on one of his various horses, shooting monsters as he passed. Legend sat under a tree alongside Hyrule, both talking in hushed whispers as they too watched Wild trotting around. Sky had a book and was reading it next to Four, who was currently staring off into space with a thoughtful expression. Time and Warriors chatted as they brushed Epona’s mane, the horse snorting in pleasure. Wind was talking with some hylians at the cooking pot.

Twilight stared at Wind, the pirate talked quickly and waved his hands around. And just for a moment, Twilight thought he saw a flash of bronze, but when he blinked it was gone.

Strange.

Sky blinked blearly at the sunset. He heard his brothers around him talking as Wild gently stirred the soup. Suddenly, a crack sounded nearby like a stick being stepped on. All the links turned, hands on their swords. A small man stepped out with his hands up, he was muddy and ragged, as if he had been traveling trough several miles of mud and swamp.

“Hey, I didn’t mean no harm. I’m just tryin to find my way to castletown. Might you point me in the direction and I’ll be on my way.” He said in a heavy country accent.

Legend narrowed his eyes suspicious, but Time stepped up. Since this was his hyrule afterall.

“Well-“ Time started gestering the man over. But was interrupted by Wind as he hopped up.

“I know what direction it is! Come here,” Wind gestered the man over and the man looked at Time, then glanced at Wind and shrugged. Following Wind over to the opposite side of camp. Wind turned around a full 180 degrees, pointing straight ahead. “Castletown should be that way!”

Sky smiled at Wind’s enthusiasm to help. But he blinked quickly, thinking he saw something vanish into Wind’s bag. But he shrugged because that was probably something he was fiddling with earlier.

To say Legend was mad would be an understatement. He was livid. Legend growled as the bokoblin jabbed at him with a blunt spear. Black blood bled from its side where he had jabbed it earlier.

The monsters had attack them at the worst of times. One moment they were just relaxing and then the next, surprise attack! Several knights also were fighting them, as they were right at the entrance of castletown. (Legend was still a bit sour since the bounty. I mean come on! Legend was so worth more then they were paying. But also his hatred of knights. They never seem to do their job right.)

Wild had a nasty injury and Four was stumbling a bit, but other then that the others were holding out just fine.

Until it came.

It was dark and black. Blacker then night. It’s glowing red eyes gleamed from its stupid lizard skull. It should’ve been dead by now. Yet it was still standing.

And Legend just wanted to murder that little jerk.

It had hurt Hyrule, who currently was inside the castle, being forced to recover from the massive wound it had inflicted. It looked raw and red when Legend had seen it. Now here Legend was, shoving and slicing monsters onto his path to that annoying, pesky lizard.

Wind appeared by his side in an instant, helping him push back the monsters. The lizard’s head shot up, turning to face him. And it hissed. Legend distantly noticed the lack of monsters and saw a whole lot more land and monster dust floating in the breeze. But all that mattered was that little lizard son of a bi-

The Lizard’s red eyes roamed the battle field, before it promptly vanished. Legend stood blinking at the sudden lack of an enemy that he didn’t notice all the monsters dead around him.

Legend felt hands on his arm, and turned to stare at Four.

Four smiled and gently hugged Legend. Legend hugged back with less force. He saw his brothers around the clearing, Time talking with the captain, Warriors and Sky talking, Wild collecting every weapon he could, Twilight and Wind talking with the knights.

Legend blearly noticed Wind putting something in one of his pockets, but Legend didn’t fully process what was going on.

Hyrule sighed as Warriors, and Wind strolled ahead of him. He was lagging behind due to seeing something interesting, but Warriors had pulled him back. Telling him that they were there to get some groceries.

He had noticed Wind hopping off to talk with people, making a very short conversation before he hopped back and pointed to a stall with tips from the person. He seemed to just naturally be better at talking then anyone Hyrule had seen or really met. Maybe the only other person being Four on some occasions. Both being able to weave some pretty good stories and trick some high ranking officers.

Warriors pointed out a particular stall, noting the various foods that was splayed out and being sold. Hyrule caught up to Wind and Warriors noting that Wind had something in his hands.

Hyrule blinked, trying to see what it was, but it was gone. Shrugging, he followed Warriors and Wind up to the stall. Pointing out some fruits.

But he couldn’t help but notice that Wind looked a little.. too energetic…

Warriors sat at the table as Malon shuffled around somewhere upstairs. He grinned as he watched Four, Legend, Hyrule, and Wind quietly stare at each other with their cards up.

“You let your guard down. Boom. Straight.” Warriors grinned putting his cards down.

“We’re playing go fish though!” Wind exclaimed.

Four blinked at them. “I thought we were doing uno…”

Legend groaned, hitting his head on the table. It sounded so loud that Warriors was a little worried that he had knocked himself unconscious.

Wild cackled, a sound which caused Hyrule next to him jump. He threw a card down. “I nope your straight!”

Hyrule blinked at everyone. Not saying anything.

Suddenly, Malon’s father walked in and sat next to Wind. He regarded the state of everyone, Legend with his head down, Wild gleefully cackling, Hyrule looking around with a confused expression, Wind watching with the most nuetral face possible, Four who was staring at the cards all out on the table quietly, and Warriors who was currently priding in his win.

“Seems like this is going well.” He mused, chuckling at the display in front of him.

Wind grinned. “Yeah, this is fun!”

“Has anyone seen one of my rings?” Malon’s voice called.

“Nope!” Warriors called out.

If it was possible, Wind’s face got even more neutral and expressionless.

Wild was not the most organized person. But he sword that he had put a comet shard in his slate. as he searched, he came up with nothing. Groaning, he glanced at the night sky.

“You okay there?” Wind asked, twirling a small dagger in his off hand.

“Yeah, I thought I had a comet shard, but apparently not. I guess I’ll just have to get one later.” Wild grinned at the promise of adventure.

Wind smiled. “Of course!” His hand came to his bag, before falling short to just resting on top of the bag. Strangely enough, Wild thought he imagined a slight yellow glow emitting from the bag.

But if it was glowing, it had stopped.

Time watched Wind carefully. He had noticed Wind’s bag getting suspiciously full. They hadn’t come across any new towns but already Wind’s bag had a bunch of stuff and was slightly bulging.

Time had suspicions, but over the entire trip its seemed as if it has only grown. But strangely enough, Wind has not been buying anything for himself to keep.

Time had noticed it two switches ago when Wind’s bag was heavier. Time had thought nothing of it then, just assuming that maybe he has been keeping souvenirs and maybe rocks or something. But clearly something was going on.

Time was determined to find out exactly what.

Four’s known something’s been up since the start. Maybe it was when one of the daggers that he made vanished. Perhaps it could of been the way that Wind’s bag clacked and clinked together. Perhaps it was that wherever Wind went, things disappeared. He noticed when a man was searching for a feather that he had, he noticed when Legend somehow lost a shiny rock. (It really was only shiny as Legend said, he really didn’t care much for it.)

Four also noticed how Wind’s bag mysteriously got more and more stuff in it. He noticed how he always went to it after every conversation with someone.

One day, in Sky’s hyrule, Four decided to confront him.

He strolled up to Wind who was sitting next to his bag leisurely, watching Sky and the rest of the chain as they flew through the sky. Minus Time, Legend, Four and Wind, everyone was outside looking at all the different loftwings.

“Hey Wind!” Four cheerfully said, standing next to Wind. Wind startled, glancing up to Four quickly.

“Oh hello Four!” Wind responded with the same amount of cheer.

“You know, I’ve noticed something strange.” Four started. “It involves you it seems.”

Wind scratched his neck. “Oh really?”

Four grinned. “Yes. It seems that your bag there is getting quite heavy…” he motioned to it. “Much heavier for someone who hasn’t bought anything.”

Wind shrugged, Four could clearly tell he was getting a little nervous by how his shoulders tensed by the littlest bit.

“What do you mean? Its been the same weight as always.”

“Really, I highly doubt that with how much stuff its been getting..” Wind was sweating now.

“Okay fine!” Wind exclaimed. Legend looked over at Wind’s sudden outburst before he returned to his book uninterested and lazily turned a page.

“I’m a pirate. Its always been natural to me.. I’ve been uhh…” Wind trailed off, wringing his hands together.

“Stealing?” Four supplied, looking at Wind as he stared at the ground.

“Yeah…”

Four shook his head. “Of course. That makes a lot of sense. How long?”

Wind blinked at Four. “Wait you’re not.? Oh well uhm. Like the last ten switches? Maybe more..”

“Can I ask why you stole items?”

“I guess it was instinct? But also like.. I realized that this quest has to come to an end somehow… and well…” Wind sighed.

“You’ve been taking because its natural and because you want memos from this trip?” Four inquired, glancing at the slightly taller hero.

He nodded.

“I’m sure you can get some memos from other ways! Besides, we all might want a memo.”

They sat there, basking in the fresh air of Sky’s home. Watching their brothers flying in the sky.

Four: Actually, that’s fair. Sometimes I remember that I was split and had to deal with me, myself and I.

Legend: You don’t want to get me started.

Time: The moon has a face.

Warriors: What weird thoughts keep you up at night?

Sky: Some people put milk before the cereal.

Wind: That one time I fell off my boat while trying to catch a bug.

Hyrule: What if my blue is someone else’s red?

Twilight: I’ll never see Midna again.

Wild: Almost everyone I ever knew died and my Hyrule fell because I couldn’t defeat Ganon the first time.

Four:

Four: Wtf

Wild: Also that one weird horse god that threatens to kill me sometimes.

Wild and Wind causing chaos, Legend and Warriors arguing, Twilight and Sky trying to stop everyone. Four watching the chaos with a deadpan expression Time turns to look at the camera like in the office: Now you see this? This is what I have to deal with.

Four, later, to the same camera: Don't tell anyone, but Time and I started the chaos. Hyrule spotted us and, like a smart man, chose to record it for us.

*Wild later*: And thats how Warriors tragically lost his life. He will be missed.

Warriors: I’m not dead quit it!

*Wind sadly*: sometimes I still hear his voice

Or an Alternative end:

*Warriors being attacked* *scratch tape*

Warriors: Yeah that’s me. You’re probably wondering how I got here. Well…

Wind, running into camp: gUYS!!

*Holds up a cucco with pink feathers wearing a blue cap* Legend's been turned into a cucco!!!

Cucco!Legend: *grumpy birb noises*

Everyone except Sky: *horrified gasps*

Four: How the fuck?

Warriors: Don't you mean "How the Cluck?"

Everyone: ...

Warriors: *attacked by Cucco!Legend*

Now this. This is amazing! I love the change with Time’s role. And the expressions?! Amazing!!

"So, you are all the past heroes?" Wild asked, scratching his neck nerviously.

"Yeah, I've been the hero once too many times." Legend sighed, leaning on his hands as he stared into the fire.

They were in a forest in Wild's Hyrule, a peaceful place surprisingly. All the other heroes slumbered quietly as three heroes sat around a low fire.

Four laughed quietly as Wild stared at Legend.

"I mean, eight quests has to count for something." Legend shook his head.

"I mean, yeah. I've only been on three." Four poked the fire a bit.

Wild swiveled his head to stare at Four. "I've only been on one!" he shook his head. "What."

Legend chuckled. "Be glad you've only been on one."

Four nodded. "Yes, my grandpa always told me 'Sei dankbar für das, was du hast' and all that. It means 'be thankful for what you have."

"What language is that? I've never heard of it." Legend tilted his head at Four.

"German."

"Wow, never heard of that language."

"Pourquoi êtes-vous tous éveillés?" A groggy voice asked as a tired Warriors joined the circle.

"Uhm, what?" Wild blinked at the sudden company.

"Hmm?" Warriors blinked tiredly at Wild again. "Oh shoot, did I speak in french. Sorry. I mean, why are you all awake?"

"Oh. Well we all couldn't fall asleep so we've just been chatting really."

"About..?"

"Well anything really." Wild piped up.

"Intresting, anyways. You said that was french? it sounds intresting. German also sounds intresting Four." Legend turned to look at Four and Warriors. "Wild, you know any languages?"

Wild nodded. "We call it Russian."

Legend nodded. "Can you say something for us?"

"Привет, меня зовут Уайлд." Wild said, sitting straight up and nodding. "I just said, 'hello, my name is Wild.'"

"Wow!" Legend's mouth curled upwards.

"You know any languages Legend?"

"Yeah! I think 20, because theres hylian, then lourian..." Legend's voice continued as he listed more and more languages.

Wild smiled at his friends around the fire, thankful to spend this moment with them.

Warriors standing in the background menacingly;

The yiga: *Starts sweating* WHO EVEN ARE YOU GUYS?!?

sky, kindly: now, why don't you tell us why you're here, hmm? i'm sure we can come to an arrangement.

time, darkly, hand on his sword: we can do this the easy way, or the hard way. no points for guessing which one you'll enjoy more.

hyrule, clearly out of his depth but trying to look tough: yeah... tell us why you want to, uh, kill wild!

the yiga footsoldier, tied to a chair, very confused: ...

The Tales of the Hero of Wind.

I got a bunch of lu (wind) prompts here, so I'm just going to throw a bunch of words on this and lets see how this turns out!

"And so, they were finally free to wander the world in peace." Wild finished, waving his hands as he sat by the fire.

Four let out a sound between a whimper and a cry quietly.

Wind smiled. "Thats a nice story, but let me tell you one even better. You see, there's there was this phantom ship, one which held numerous treasures within. Tetra and I, along with the crew, started to board the ship and steal all of it's treasures..." Wind enthusiastically explained, painting the scene with hand gestures.

Time stared at the small hero as he spoke with so much thrill, causing Wild to be leaning forward in his seat.

Legend leaned over to Warriors, watching as Wind captured the rest of the heroes in his story. He whispered "How much do you think this is real..?"

Warriors took a second, before blinking at Legend. "What? I'm sorry, Wind is telling a really good story."

Legend blinked, turning to stare at Wind. How much of his stories are true...?

Wind coughed, a ragged dry cough. His throat felt dry as a desert.

He shivered, glancing over at the rest of the heroes as Wild stirred the cooking pot, probably making soup for him.

Suddenly, a heavy weight fell on this shoulders and he glanced up, seeing blue in the corner of his eyes. He looked at the strange item wrapped around him. It was Warrior's scarf. He glanced at Warriors, blinking at how odd it was seeing him without his scarf.

"Wha-?"

Warriors shrugged. Then waved it off. "Keep it, I can get it back once you're feeling better. I've always seen it as a good luck charm, maybe it can bring good luck to you by curing your sickness." He strolled off towards Four at the far side of camp.

Wind shivered, burying his face into the warm, comfortable scarf.

I'm so taking this once I get better. Its so nice and soft...

A battle raged around him, and Wind ducked and slashed at monsters. He sliced the bokoblin he was fighting, black blood spilling across the ground. His gaze snapped up and searched for his compantions, friends, and family. He saw Wild, shooting arrows at top speed, Hyrule, causing.. Was that lightning? to strike every so often. Sky and Warriors were fighting back to back. Time and Twilight surged against the horde. Legend and Four were no where to be seen.

"LEGEND! FOUR!!" Wind called out, desperately searching for them in the horde.

Legend head popped up, swimming through the crowd. Wind sighed a breath of relief at seeing him, but his heart clenched in fear with no sight of Four.

Wind ducked as a Moblin clawed at where his head was mere moments before. He searched the area, keeping an eye out for the shortest hero and his very colorful outfit.

As he dodged the moblin, he noticed a darknut closing in on a very familiar multicolored tunic.

Four! His mind thought and he frantically shoved past monsters. Rushing to go save his brother. He neared and shoved his sword through the darknut's stomache, slicing its armor and itself in half. It crumbled to dust as he rushed over to where Four lay.

"Four?! Four!" Wind shook Four, his mind panicking when Four didn't respond.

Wind did a quick check, noticing a wound on the smithy's head. Knocked unconscious? I always forget that the Smithy is more prone to head injuries. Wind sighed in relief as he felt the constant pulse of his brother.

He stood stance over Four's prone body, ready to defend him until his final dying breath.

"Hey Wind, did you know in my Hyrule, that you can stop time and go into another dimension that shouldn't exist? I call it the 'title screen'." Twilight told Wind. Wind gasped, staring at Twilight in awe. "Thats so cool! Can I see it?"

It all started out when Wild made a joke about being able to fly by using explosives. Wind had believed him. They were trying to push it and see what limits existed.

As far as they know, there is none.

"Hey Wind, I once had to fight the moon." Time piped up.

Wind blinked at Time. "Really? Amazing!!!"

Four blinked at Time. "If you fought the moon, and destroyed it, wouldn't that have destroyed your world? I mean.. Tides, and gravity..."

"Shhhh Four. No one knows the concept of science ye-... Wait... How do you..." Wild stared at Four, his eyes wide.

Four just snickered and didn't respond.

"Whose Hyrule is this?" Time asked, and the 7 other heroes all made noises of disagreement, signaling that this wasn't any of their Hyrules.

"I hate water." Legend muttered as he stared at the open abyss of water.

"I saw we explore the land. Maybe we can find more mainland that way?" Wild suggested, pointing in the opposite direction of the sea.

"No, will not work. I think we're on an island." Sky called from where he landed in a tree.

"Who are you?!" A voice called out and a small, blonde haired child came running out of the forest. Waving a sword and sheild, they also had a bow on their back.

"Hey, little one. We're lost. Do you have any directions or a boat we could use? Also, if you have any information, is there a hero in the land?" Time asked, his shoulders relaxing realizing that the child was no threat.

"Why are you looking for me?!" The child exclaimed, holding the sword defensively.

"That's the hero?" Legend muttered to Hyrule. Hyrule just shrugged.

"You are Link?" Time questioned.

The small child hero paused a quick moment before nodding.

Four strolled right up to them. "Finally! Someone my size! Hi! Okay, this is going to sound odd, but we're the past heroes. I'm Four, the armored one is Time, Wild is the one hanging upside down from the tree, Sky is the one on the tree, Warriors is the one with the blue scarf who is arm wrestling Twilight, and that's Hyrule and Legend." Four said, pointing to each one.

"Well uhh.. You can call me A-I mean Wind?" The new hero said, stuttering slightly as he stared at Time in awe.

(He? They? Four couldn't tell.)

"I assume thats your hero titles right?" The little hero, newly dubbed Wind, asked.

Time nodded. Wind gasped in awe.

"You're the hero of time?! That's amazing! So cool!!" Wind cheered.

"Ahh, so another hero after Time." Legend scratched his neck.

Twilight snickered at the young hero's enthusasim.

***

Three swaps and Four could say that the new hero was off.

They had no idea how or what was wrong, but something was just off about Wind. As they landed in Wind's time again, they were stuck on an island out in the middle of no where.

"This is my Hyrule!" The young hero cried, their hazel eyes gleamed as they surveyed the water.

"Ugh, I hate water." Legend groaned next to Four.

A boat sailed far in the distance, ever slowly coming closer.

Wind smiled, waving his hands excitedly as the boat neared.

A tanned head with curly blonde locks stuck out over the side and peered at them, her eyes narrowing seeing Wind. They vanished quickly.

What was that about? Four wondered.

As the boat stopped, a young tanned girl from before (the one who peered at them), hopped down and pointed a sword at Wind.

"Who are you imposter." They said in a serious tone, and the rest of the chain reacted, their hands instinctively going towards their swords.

"Imposter?" Legend asked, facing Wind curiously. "What does that mean Wind?"

"Uhm." Wind was clearly panicking, his eyes glancing back and forth between the chain and the girl.

Another person landed slid down and walked up next to the girl, he was very familiar, as he looked exactly like Wind. "Uhm, Tetra, what is going on?"

"This is an imposter Link!" Tetra cried, her sword creeping closer to Wind.

"I'm sorry, I think we got on the wrong foot. You said your name is Link from this timeline? Then is there two heroes?" Time asked, clearing his throat. "We are the past heroes, and we've been traveling with Wind over here."

"Wind... wait ARYLL?!" Link cried, moving forward and putting his hand on Tetra's sword lowering it.

"I didn't want to lose you again big brother... I'm sorry." Wind, Aryll? said, frowning at the sand.

The real hero of Wind hugged Aryll.

"Could someone explain what is going on..?" Hyrule asked, scratching his neck.

Guard: Could you at least remove the sword? Weapons are forbidden.

Wind: *grumpily* puts his sword down.

Warriors: And the hidden daggers?

Wind: But what if I need them?

*Time giving him the disappointed dad stare*

Wind: Ughhh fine.

Wind: *takes a dagger out of a secret compartment in his tunic. Then another in his hair. Takes off his boot and shakes it, a couple daggers falls out and he shakes it again and a huge pile of daggers bigger than him forms from all the daggers in his shoe.*

Warriors: How did you even walk?!
