The Gods' Chosen Hero in Equestria

Worlds Away

Link awoke with a rather big headache. He just had the craziest dream about Ganon returning and a bunch of colorful talking ponies. He kept his eyes closed for the moment so he could let the headache pass. He couldn’t wait to tell Ilia his
crazy dream.

“Do you think he’s awake?” said a rather tomboyish voice.

Link’s eyes snapped open quick. He looked around and saw it was no dream. There seemed to be two more of the demon horses. These two being bigger than the other six. He jumped up and tried to grab his sword but he remembered he left his sword in his house back in Ordon.

“What are you demons?” asked Link eyeing them cautiously

“Link, calm down please.” came a familiar voice

He looked to the direction of the voice and saw Princess Zelda; she was wearing her robes from the Twilight Crisis.

“Princess” he said as he ran to her but when he tried to give her a hug he fell through her.

He looked at her again and noticed she was transparent

“Princess what is going on. Is this one of Ganon’s evil trick?”

“No Link it is not. Actually this is quite the opposite of that?”

Link stared at her with a puzzled look “Can you explain please?”

“Of course but first there must be a few things to clear in the air” When she finished her sentence, her image flickered out of focus,

“Ahh, this is an old spell I’m using and it’s taking a lot to use it and hide myself so let’s be quick”

Everyone in the room nodded.

“Now first I will tell you these are our friends. They will do you no harm and they will aide you on the upcoming quests you will be taking”

Link nodded showing he understood.

“Now Equestrians, this is not the Link you once knew. That Link has long since been dead”

All the ponies in the room looked at Zelda in horror.

“W…What?” asked a tearful Fluttershy

“That’s impossible! I just sent him a message like three weeks ago!” said Twilight

“Well that is true my student but your timelines do not run along at the same times.” Said Celestia giving a sad look at Twilight

“When our worlds combine or cross...” said Luna “They will stay together for a short period. What was weeks for us was decades for them”

All the ponies had tears in their eyes. Finding out a close friend of theirs had been dead for along time was something new to them.

“Then what about him?” asked Applejack “He’s like the spitting image of Link. Hayseeds he even has the same name.”

“That, I can answer.” spoke Zelda “It’s a tale as old as the Tri-force. Every so often there is a hero clad in green that comes forth and saves the world from evil. Always saving a member of the royal family with his courage. Every single one of those heroes are named Link. I don’t know if it is coincidence or destiny but he always prevails and proves himself. The Link you knew was his predecessor. The same with my ancestor”

“So what you’re telling us is that when your land is in trouble these heroes always look the same. Sound the same and even act the same?” asked Twilight

“Yes Twilight Sparkle”

“But that is such a big burden on these heroes. Do they even know that they are the chosen one?”

“No they do not. They find out during their quest. It’s a curse actually on the one who wields the Tri-force of Courage. It began with the original Link and Zelda who defeated a villain named Demise. With his dying breath he said his hatred would be reborn. The hatred eventually turned into Ganon who I assume you all know. This Link has proven himself by defeating Ganon a while ago.”

“But Princess” Link said “How did he get out? I thought he would be gone for a long time”

“Normally yes but it seemed something from this world seemed to have aided in his early escape” Zelda turned to Celestia and Luna “Has anything happen lately that could have done that?”

All the Equestrians looked at each other

“Yes” said Celestia “The only answer could be King Sombra”

“Who is King Sombra?” asked Link

“He was an evil unicorn king that spread fear amongst the crystal ponies but Princess Cadance banished him” explained Luna

“When he was banished I’m guessing he found the soul of Ganon.” Zelda added.

“But I killed Ganon. I saw him die before my very eyes, you did too” exclaimed Link

“Well yes but his soul is another story. Remember Demise said his hatred would be reborn. If this King Sombra found Ganon’s soul he could easily feed him enough energy to give him a body back.

Link stood horrified at this news “I need to stop him. I need to stop him NOW”

“That is why I sent a distress to Twilight Sparkle. She felt the signal and thought their Link was in trouble. So she summoned you here.”

“What must I do? Though without the master sword I might be in trouble”

“Do not despair Link. After I end this message I am sending seven temples to this world. The final one containing the Master sword but first you must collect the energy of the sword from the other six.”

“Shouldn’t I be able to just grab it from the pedestal though?”

“Normally yes, but when I send the sword to this world it’s power will be split because the power of the sword is too much for me to send at once, you must prove you’re worthy again for this is a new world and the sword must recognize you as its master once more as well.”

Link nodded at Zelda “I understand” he looked over to the Equestrians who were still in grieving over their friend “I know this must be hard for you but please, I need your help.”

They stared at Link for a moment but they all gave him a smile

“Of course.” replied Twilight, wiping a few tears away.

Link looked back towards Zelda “This is gonna be hard without any of my equipment.”

“Don’t worry I can send you your sword and shield plus a map of where the temples will be but that is all I can do. Anything else will drain my power and kill me.”

“That is all I need, thank you Zelda.” Link bowed

Zelda turned to Celestia and Luna.

“I am sorry for this. I want you to know my people never wanted this”

“It is okay. We all know that somethings are meant to happen. Nopony is to blame” remarked Celestia

“Link, I will know when your task is complete and I will send for you.” with that she disappeared.

Link looked towards his new friends hoping they would all be up to the task that was at hand.

Worse news: This may become cancelled
Silver lining: I'll be taking the reigns unless Bright_star can continue

[StrigidaeFan]

I would like to see the Hero's Shade in the story, and the Mane Six's reaction to learning that he's their Link.
That would be so heartbreakingly sad, to learn that their friend cannot pass on until his regrets fade, which won't be for a long time.

You're welcome.

[The Dankest Meme]

This story has given me the strength to begin writing my own Twilight Princess crossover. It started as an idea that I was going to expand on, but then I started reading Fire & Rain...

[StrigidaeFan]

3634631 You're welcome!

[Alberts24]

[Alberts24]

4769686 thank you for this good news :-)

[Ganondad42]

4769686 I have read your other story, I found it to be quite enjoyable and was thrilled to see that it has a squeal. Now I hate to be a stick in the mud and give you praise followed by a rebuke, BUT,Tri-force is spelled without the hyphen. TRIFORCE. sorry

But if at any time you need any help/ a person to take over during your absence, I would be thrilled and overjoyed if you would let me know. You know what they say.

No need to be sorry, if you don't like it, you don't like it. I personally have been thinking of re-writing it

[Enderdragonslayer1]

Are you going to continue this story? Or is it dead?

[Mikoyose]

7610653
Well I've lost the drive to write and I haven't seen Bright in years

[TheArcticWolf]

7611182
NOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooo!

[Edguy0009]

7611182
Well somehow find the drive to do so again or give it to someone else.

[Mikoyose]

Well, if I decide to continue this, I think I may re-write it all, or I might just change some things seeing as the guy who wanted to write this either gave up or became disinterested long before I stopped writing
