Chapter 1: The New Hero
We meet our old Hero again, Link. He is in his house, waiting (like usual) but this time, he know everything about his quest. He has all the items he needs, and everything from all the dungeons. Why isn't he fighting the final boss? Because there is none. This time, Link can't do it. After many quarrels with the Royal Family, Link decided to give up. He put the burden of "Hero of Time" to a different person. Little did he know that different person was himself. 24 years in the past.

Link had aged, and he was now 36 years old. He knew everything about Hyrule, the Great Sea, and Termina, so what else? Link was angered, but sad, so his mixed emotions couldn't recognize himself as a 12 year old. The worst thing was, the danger was much greater than ever. Often times, played through the Golden Ocarina, Zelda would try to calm Link down to persuade him to go, but Link refused every time. Finally, Zelda gave up, but she did contact him 1 more time, to demand aid, by giving the Link weapons items and helpful things. Link agreed on behalf of the Royal Family.

Chapter 2: The Hero's Passing
"The time has come for our Hero to embark. Go Young Link, defeat evil, stop it from crossing the magical protection around Hyrule." Zelda said. The young Link was very confused and scared. Link walked up to him and recognized who he was. He insisted that Zelda make him go on this quest and not Young Link. Zelda refused, saying Young Link has already become the Hero of Time. As a parting gift, Link gave Young Link his old Ocarina of Time, and taught him the Hero's Melody.

When Young Link parted, Link did not know what to do, he felt so sad, he started playing on his golden ocarina until something happened. Eventually, Link had played the Everlasting Melody song. The melody was only allowed to be played once, said the prophecy, and Link could now choose 1 host for his soul when he died. The soul would overtake the body of the host, and the old soul (if there is one) would be put into a suit of armor, becoming a Darknut. Link refused to choose a host, so the song killed him. As a lonely soul, looking for a body. As a soul, Link could do whatever he wanted. Link felt hiding his 8 greatest weapons/items in temples would give the Young Link an edge, also, he bestowed the Magical Ocarina upon Prince Raileigh of Castle Town (Zelda's husband to-be), to give to the young hero.

He hid 8 items he had acquired over the many quests he had taken into the 8 temples beyond Hyrule. He hid first the Gale Boomerang, then the Golden Arrows (New version of the light arrows), then the Bombchus, then the Pegasus Boots, the Rito Cape (Flys longer than Roc's cape), the Megaton Hammer, the Clawshots, and finally, the Deity Sword, the sword with the power to defeat evil gods. During the time, after the Fourth Temple, the Prince would give him the Magical Ocarina. After that, in the seventh Temple, the Spirit of Time would give him the Golden Ocarina. After he acquired the 8 items, he would get more Ocarina songs and power-ups from the sages.

Chapter 3: The Hero's Awakening
Young Link was always afraid of things, and that's why he got picked on a bunch by his neighbors. He lived in castle town with wealthy parents, but he was so weak and he always got picked on. When he told everyone he was leaving, the all laughed and made fun of him. Now Link was scared more than ever. He had to leave Hyrule, going into a place that nobody knew existed except Zelda. It was far outside the reach of the magical borders repelling evil around Hyrule, it was even far outside Termina. Link kept trekking over the mountain of Wrath, the deadly mountain that could only be tamed by an Ocarina song. Link then ran into a Sheikah name Shen. He explained that the remaining members of the Sheikah were trapped inside the mountain, and that he knows a song that can calm it, and open a portal that goes inside the mountain, but he had lost his ocarina.

Link explained the quest and how he had to go outside of hyrule to stop evil, but he has no clue what to do. "First, help me, I know what you're looking for, and I can do this:" Shen turned into a Keese and landed on Links shoulder. "I can turn into different animals, like Keese. I can then aid you on your quest and you can use me as a weapon. Now play this song." Shen hummed out a song for Link, and Link followed along on his ocarina. "Perfect, now, step into the dim, red light over there, we must save the Sheikah!" When link stepped into the portal, three Kokiri name the Know-It-All brothers appeared. "Sorry," they said "No weaklings allow, and you are weak, because you can't fight back for yourself. You better get a sword and a shield, and by the way, wooden won't cut it, it will burn inside this mountain." Link was very angry at the Kokiri, but Shen agreed with them, and took Link (actually he used the Sheikah method of teleportation) down to the mountain into the Goron Tribe.

The Gorons tested Links power and told Shen that they must awaken the Goro-Strength within him. The Goron leader insisted that he had 1 or 2 years to work with him. Shen told them 1 or 2 days was the maximum. The Goron leader then told Link, he must work at 365 caliber. Link trained for 2 days, while Shen tried to communicate with the rest of the Sheikah using Links ocarina, but he got no response. When links training had done, he had grown 4 or 5 inches, and gained a big amount of muscle. "While Goro-Link has been training, we made him good sword and shield. We call it the Goron Sword and the Metal Sheild." Link equipped his items, and headed back to the portal with his new strength.

He met the Know-It-All Brothers again, and they insisted on a fight to test his strength. Link bested the 3 brothers easily, and they allowed him into the crater. Shen turned into a Keese and aided Link (just like Navi...). he found no sign of the Sheikah inside the mountain, so they went inside the Sheikah Temple to find the rest of the Sheikahs Shen was talking about.

Chapter 4: Inside Sheikah Temple
As Shen and Link entered the temple, they met up with an old Sheikah. The master Sheikah had little life left from fending off monsters. He was awaiting the return of his tribe from inside the temple for 3 days, and he didn't have much life force left. The Sheikah sent Shen out to find the other Sheikah, and told Link about the Ghost of Time. The elder told Link it looked like an older version of him. The ghost had told the elder to help the young one find the Gale Boomerang, so he could undo the temples curse on the Sheikah, making them live forever again. The boomerang would undo the dark winds from the boss room of the templae, where the elder would meditate, but now a great evil has taken it over. Link had to save the Sheikah from death. Link entered the first room of the temple, and blasted through a few rooms with his gorons sword, then met up with the Mini-Boss.

The dark blob was lit on fire. Around the room, there were 3 areas where there was water. Link splashed some water on the dark monster, then slashed him up with his sword. Link repeated this, then earned the Gale Boomerang. With the power of winds, Link can control Shen, move fire from torches, and more. Link started with opening to contraption on the door, and finding Shen. Shen had found the rest of the Sheikah, who gave their help to Link, and gave him the boss key. Link used the boomerang to make Shen find the Boss Door, then he followed him into it.

Boss: Dark Volcanic Flarin Link met up with the boss. Shen told him the he could sneak up behind to get his attention away, while Link used the boomerang to pour water on the boss, then slash him up. Link did as Shen followed, then entered stage 2. The Volcanic Monster punched the ceiling and burned rocks to make the rocks flaming and falling, Link used Shen to grab some water, then put out the rocks, and repeated stage 1. The coupe de grace was sword uppercut that the goron elder taught him during his training. Link exited the temple, and played the song that Zelda taught him, so he could ask for advise. She told him to stay with Shen, and listen to him for advise.

Chapter 5: Isle of Frost
Shen explained to Link the way to complete his quest and save all in and out of Hyrule. Link had to get the sacred amulet of time. Each race had a fragment of the amulet, and Shen was holding the Sheik Fragment. Shen then told Link to head outside of Hyrule's borders, into the Far Reaches, where he could get to the Isle of frost, to get the Ruto Fragment from the Zora. After that, Link could get the Darunia Fragment from the Gorons. So the pair of Hero's set out towards the Far Reaches, which was far from Wrath Volcano. Link had trouble keeping up with Shen, because he was young and tired. Shen and Link took a rest for a little bit. While they were resting, a Zora came swimming from up the river they were following (a river always leads to a lake, and a lake leads to a zora domain). He stopped and looked at Link. One glimpse of the Ocarina Link was playing gave the Zora the hint he was the Hero of Time.

The Zora asked Link his name, and Shen told him. The Zora admitted his name was Mikah, who was the lead Ocarina player in the famous band Blue-Lu's. Mikah had told them that his domain had been cold for many years, but a dark ice creature looking like a yeti came in and blew one ice breath, and froze the whole Zora domain. The only person that didn't survive was locked in the temple, and had the Ruto Amulet. The Zora told Link the Song of Flame, which was useful for melting ice and ice monsters, also, he could make Shen a Fire Keese. Mikah showed the way to the Frozen Zora Domain, and told them to find his blue ocarina if they could, then headed off to Hyrule to warn the elder Zora.

Chapter 6: The Frozen Domain
Link and Shen entered the frozen domain, and noticed its structure was like a temples. Shen told Link about Zora tribes from different lands making temples out of their domains to worship the Ocean King. Link played the Song of Flame, to melt some of the ice, and much of the ice melted in the domain. Link stepped through the door and fended off a few monsters, before entering a door. Link found the Mini-boss, a giant Zora made of ice. Link used the Song of Flame on Shen, and sent him to melt the ice around the weak point (heart) and then slashed it up. Link continued into the next room, where he found the Golden Arrows. The Golden Arrows were able to be turned into Fire Arrows (using the Song of Flame), or Ice arrows (which Link will soon get). Golden Arrows had the power to destroy evil.

Link used the Golden Arrows (first making them aflame) to pass through the temple, and to the boss. When Link finally got to the boss door, he forgot he needed the Key. He sent Shen to find the key, and Link followed closely behind. When a barred door seperated the two Heroes, link had to fight a ice creature to get the boss key. Using the Fire arrows, link easily bested the foe and got the boss key, then made his way back to the boss door, where he found Shen waiting in his Sheikah form. Shen told Link how to get a flaming sword with the Song of Flame. The flaming sword was the only way to befeat the boss up ahead.

Boss: Evil Ice Fiend: Freezetti The frozen yeti attack Link with ice breath, which he dodged easily. Then Link took aim at the frozen Yeti with Ice arrows to melt his cool armor. The Yeti fell to the ground, and Link slashed his head. When the Yeti was destroyed, he exploded into the giant ice Zora Link had seen before. Link used his fire arrows (instead of Shen) on the monster to melt it a bit, then used his flaming sword on the heart, which was now covered in an ice barrier. Link used the coupe de grace on the monster, and ended the battle easily.

Chapter 7: Back to Wrath Mountain
After saving the Zora, Link remembered to get the Blue Ocarina for Mikah. Link wanted to run back into the temple to find it, but instead, Link played the Song of Flare to melt the rest of the ice in the domain. When the Ice was melted, he play the Heroes Melody to ask for help, and just then Shen appeared from out of the temple in Sheikah form. He told Link about the next piece of the Amulet of Time. Link had to go all the way back to Wrath Mountain, and inside the Gorons City into the Mines of the Gorons. Shen then pulled out an Ocarina that looked like Links, and asked Link if he had dropped his in the temple, Link showed Shen the Ocarina of Time, and remembered again what Mikah had said about his ocarina. Just then, Mikah came swimming up the stream. Mikah took the Blue ocarina from link, and gave him the Ruto Amulet in exchange.

Link and Shen headed out to Wrath Mountain, to meet back up with the Gorons. When Link and Shen were trekking back up the mountain near Wrath (Wrath's "brother" Death Mountain). A Goron came rolling down. He stopped Link and Shen from entering the Goron's sacred caverns. Shen turned into a bat and flew around, then came back to tell Link about the mines. He told Link the mines were heavily guarded by Gorons, and you need to be as strong as a Goron to fight them, or become a Goro-Brother. Shen then teleported him and Link back to the Sheikah Temple, where they met with the Gorons from Wrath. The helpful Gorons were going against their brothers from Death mountain, and helping Link become as strong as them. The master Goron explained how the Death tribe were always angry at visitors because they have something hidden in their mines. The Gorons contacted the Sage of Time and asked for the time vortex to be stopped for 3 years, so Link could train, the sage agreed and stopped time. After 3 years of training, Young Link became Teenage Link (the time vortex stopped but not the aging process). The older, stronger Link had also learned the Requiem of Power, which gives him enough power to smash rocks with a quick strike of the sword.
