Quest for the Master Sword
by Alexandra Spears
A/N: This is based on the cartoon...which in turn is more or less based on Zelda 1 and 2. I thought of this today at work while I was really bored. :)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Deep within the cool, dark, musty labyrinths that comprised the Underworld, Ganon stood at the base of his Evil Jar, gazing at the red Triforce of Power, plotting. How to get the Triforce of Wisdom was the question--and possibly the Triforce of Courage.
He closed his red eyes and thought back to centuries ago, when he'd been a Gerudo. He'd attempted to get the Master Sword for himself, until Link and Zelda's ancestor, Link, the Hero of Time, interfered. Something to do with a switch in the timeline....
"That sword is the key," said Ganon quietly. "The Master Sword. And the Spiritual Stones. Fortunately I know just where to find the Spiritual Stones, even after all this time. But I'll have to search for the Master Sword."
Opening his eyes, he pointed a long, gnarled finger at the Evil Jar. A bolt of magic shot from the tip of his claw and into the pink mists of the Evil Jar, and several of his crew appeared--an assortment of Goriyas, Molblins, and Stalfos. "I want you to search for the Master Sword," he told them. "Let me know of its location, while I think of a way to get those Spiritual Stones. That sword is the key to my victory--I'll get that complete Triforce yet!"
"Link, I want to show you something," said Princess Zelda to the handsome, dark-haired young man standing near her.
"I've already seen your body--lots of times," Link smirked at her. They'd been married for about five months so far and Link just couldn't get enough.
Zelda folded her arms over her chest, tossed her long blonde hair back over her shoulder, and glared at her husband. "What I meant, Link, was now that you're part of the Royal Family of Hyrule, I'd like to show you some of our treasures. One day I'll be Queen and you'll be my consort. It would help if you knew some of our background."
"What, some old antiques and junk?" Link asked, still smirking.
"It is not junk! Some of it is handed down from our ancestors--going as far back as the first Link and Zelda!"
"Well excuuuuse me, Princess," Link muttered as Zelda grabbed his hand and led him down the corridors of North Castle.
"Come on," said Zelda.
"I like hearing that from you--our bedroom's the other way," Link teased.
"Can't you ever get enough?" This time Zelda had to laugh.
"Hey--on our wedding night, I tried it and I loved it!"
"Link, you have a one-track mind...."
Finally they came to a locked door. Zelda took a key out of the pouch on her belt and opened it.
Link's brown eyes widened when he saw the treasures within. "Hey...this is really cool!" he breathed. Various crowns and weapons and such were on shelves. Pieces of jewelry were in display cases.
"Now this crown...," said Zelda as she gently picked a crown up from off a shelf. "This crown has the Spiritual Stones in it--the Kokiri's Emerald, the Goron's Ruby, and the Zora's Sapphire. Those races are extinct now, thanks to Ganon. Our ancestor Link, the Hero of Time, used these gems and the Master Sword to open the Door of Time."
"That's right, he married that Princess Zelda."
"Yes, Link, we're distantly related...but for all intents and purposes not related," said Zelda. "We keep this crown down here. The Master Sword--I don't know what exactly became of that, only that a little over a hundred years ago our ancestor, another Link, put it to rest--forever, he'd said. I think it's somewhere in the Lost Woods."
"The Lost Woods have expanded since that time," said Link. "I bet it would be near impossible to find by now. There was a village named Kakariko a hundred years ago, now it's all forest."
Zelda gently set the crown down on its shelf. "There's a lot of history here, Link, handed down through our family. Some of it's yours, some of it mine, some of it belongs to both of us."
"You know, all this talk about ancestors...why don't we work on making some descendants?" Link said, gently grasping her hips and pulling her close for a kiss.
"You never give up on that, do you?" Zelda smiled as she kissed his lips and wound her arms around his neck. "Still have that one-track mind...."
"Seems a Link was always meant for a Zelda," said Link softly as he gently pushed her hair away from her neck. "I sure don't need history to teach me that...."
They shared a long, sweet kiss. "Link...I think our bed would be a little more comfortable," Zelda murmured as she felt his lips on her neck.
"Why don't I carry you over the threshold like I did on our wedding night?" Link suggested as he bent down and lifted her up into his arms.
"Know what I like about you, Link? You can be so romantic when you want to be," Zelda told him as she leaned her head against his chest, as he carried her to their bedroom. She could hear his heart pounding underneath his green tunic.
Ganon had already sent his minions out into the Lost Woods to locate the legendary Master Sword. Now he needed a plan to find out how to get the Spiritual Stones. He knew that they were in North Castle; having been around for centuries, thanks to the Triforce of Power, he'd been able to find out.
His teleportational powers were severely limited in the Overworld. A disguise surely would not hide his porcine face, his long snout, his tusks. He needed someone to do his dirty work for him.
Ganon stroked what little chin he had, lost in thought. Then he snapped his fingers. "I have it!" he exclaimed. He shot another bolt of magic at the Evil Jar and a Stalfo came forth.
Zelda lay in Link's arms, panting and still trembling from the passion they'd just shared. "Sure you've had no other woman?" Zelda teased as he put his arm around her.
"I'm sure...you're my first and my only," Link told her. "Why?"
"Because you're so good," she replied.
"Tell me more...."
"I don't want your head to get more swelled than it already is," Zelda told him as she lay her head on Link's shoulder and her hand on his chest. "Your ego must have shot into the clouds when we got married."
Link laughed at that.
Just then, there was a knock at the door. "Who is it?" Zelda called, immediately jumping out of bed and reaching for her clothes, which consisted of pink leggings, a purple blouse, and a sky-blue vest.
"Princess Zelda and Link, your presence is requested," came a voice through the door.
"We'll be right there," Zelda called as she pulled on her clothes.
Link sighed. "Well, at least we're able to do more than just kiss before we're interrupted. Progress...."
Rather reluctantly, the young man pulled himself up out of bed and pulled on his clothes. "Well, honey, let's see what your father wants," he said.
Zelda was waiting for him at the door, and Link took her hand and they walked together to the throne room.
When Link and Zelda arrived at the throne room, they saw Zelda's father, the elderly King Harkinian, sitting on his throne. Standing before the throne was a rather handsome, dark-haired young man dressed in royal attire. He had black hair and green eyes, and his clothes were mostly green. "This is Prince Falsto. Falsto, my daughter Zelda and my son-in-law, Link. They were married several months ago." The lovable, rather absent-minded Harkinian smiled at Link and Zelda.
"It's too bad a beauty such as yourself is already claimed," said the prince, whose voice sounded almost raspy.
Link squeezed Zelda's hand a little more tightly. "What brings you here?" Link asked, trying to keep the jealousy out of his voice. He was still a little insecure when it came to Zelda's love for him.
"I need to stop and rest here for a night or two...my kingdom is so very far away," Falsto replied, looking just at Zelda.
"Well, my daughter can show you your room," smiled Harkinian. "Follow Link and Zelda."
Falsto walked alongside Zelda, who was holding Link's hand. "I have heard so much about Hyrule and its history...perhaps you could show me treasures of times past," he said.
"Well, perhaps later on this evening," said Zelda. "It's almost time for dinner and I'm sure you'd like to freshen up."
"Of course, Princess."
Finally they came to a guest room. Zelda gently pushed open the wooden door. "I hope this will do," she said.
"It's fine," Falsto said, peering inside, then stepping in. "Yes, I'll freshen up before dinner, and afterwards you can show me around."
"Link and I are going to get ready for dinner ourselves," said Zelda.
"Thanks for your hospitality," said Falsto. "I'll see you at dinner...Zelda...." The wooden door closed.
"I don't like that guy," Link murmured as he and Zelda headed back to their bedroom.
"Oh, Link, you never like it when a man pays attention to me," said Zelda, her tone chiding. She stopped in front of him and placed her hands on his chest. "Trust me, Link, it's you I love. I could have had any prince I wanted--but I chose you because there's something about you I really love."
"I'm sorry...I just--oh, I don't know," sighed Link.
"Look at these wedding rings on our fingers, Link. That says it all right there," Zelda reminded him. "Link, you need to learn how to trust me. I love you."
Falsto took a small globe out of his pouch and held it. "I am in the castle, Master," he hissed.
Ganon's face appeared in the clear glass globe. "You didn't get those Stones yet, did you?"
"I will tonight...once Zelda shows me where they are," he replied. "I don't think Link likes me very well...."
"Listen, you bag of bones! I sent you there for the gems, not to flirt with Zelda! If you get Link suspicious it'll ruin the whole thing!" Ganon shrieked. "Just get those gems--tonight--and get out of there!"
Ganon's face disappeared and the globe went dark.
