Thank you guys for reading this and for those who favorited/followed. It's pretty cool waking up to those notifications. I was going to post this chapter a week after the first but figured now would be a good time as any.

Special shout out to ParadoxicOrder8 and theawsomest5 for leaving behind some nice comments. I love hearing back from people. And to answer your question, Paradox, the reason I didn't tag this as a crossover is that I forgot to do so. My bad. Thanks for reminding me :D

Here's chapter 2!


Link had disappeared from the hero's line of sight shortly after he noticed the other boy had seen him. He followed the young hero and his friend from the rooftops; Quietly jumping across and into shadows as they walked below him. Link grew impressed with the hero the further they walked. It was obvious to Link that the other boy knew he was still around judging by the way the hero kept glancing up towards the tops.

The hero's companion, someone Link did not recognize from any of his visions had, at one point noticed his friend's tense demeanor and looked rather uncomfortable as the two continued down the busy streets. That had made Link feel pretty guilty for scaring the two boys. They were young, a bit younger than he would have been if Zelda had not sent him back. Link was aware that kids their age should not be involved in matters such as these. The hero he was following especially so as he was not even supposed to be on the planet when the elder warriors faced the Titan.

Link, however, did not have that luxury.

It was as Link watched the brown-haired teenager anxiously tug on the straps of his pack that Link swore he would do whatever he could to prevent the boy from meeting the same fate from his visions. He had seen the boy's death when he slept; Watched him turn into dust in his father's hands. He heard him plead and cry as the inevitable happened. Link had cried too; For the loss of someone so bright and happy and also for the man who had lost him. Link had wondered if the man had left the planet after his companions had disappeared. Link couldn't imagine the amount of the strength it would have took to even want to see another day.

It wouldn't come to pass. The young hero would live on. So would the other warriors who had lost their lives on that battlefield. The millions who were killed will not ever know of what could have been. Link would not allow it.

Link watched as the two boys entered a building and silently jumped off his perch to follow. A woman squealed behind him once he landed and Link turned to at least send her a look of apology but the woman only gasped and paled. The boy felt taken aback at the odd reaction but quickly realized that the Fierce Diety's face was rather intimidating. He had forgotten he still had it on. The sword strapped to his back probably did not help either. Link raised his hands in what he hoped looked like a calming gesture but the woman had run off before he could do anything more.

Link sighed and shook his head. He was really bad with people, it seemed. Not wanting to make the same mistake twice, Link summoned the Stone Mask and quickly put it on after sending the Fierce Deity's Mask back to wherever the magic sent it. Luckily there was no one around to witness the exchange as Link silently slunk into the same building he saw the two boys disappear in.

The momentary distraction outside had not done Link any favors as he had effectively lost track of the two boys he had been trailing. Link pondered on what to do next when a sudden movement behind him had Link rushing out of the way before he was knocked over. Link watched a few laughing adults nearly crashed into him as they crossed the otherwise empty foyer. They couldn't see him, obviously, as the small group stopped at the far corner and pressed a small trigger in the wall. Link gaped as the wall slid opened shortly after the trigger lit up. He had not felt the usual magic in the air when a hidden door was revealed in temples.

Not willing to risk his chance Link quickly followed the group of adults, easily crouching low in the corner in order to avoid the others in the small room. The boy waited for another door or corridor to open and nearly leaped to his feet in shock when the small room began to move up. Link quickly glanced at the others in the room and relaxed when they didn't react to the odd magic room.

"Who left a rock in the elevator?"

Link was the last one out of the small room when the doors pulled apart to reveal a hallway. He slowly moved to the corner of the hallway and watched as the small group of people wandered through one of the doors lined against the left side wall. Link sat still for a moment, waiting for someone to appear in the small corridor and stood when no one new appeared. He stood, removing the Stone Mask, and quietly roamed the narrow hall.

The boy figured the layout to this building was not unlike the Stock Pot Inn; A room beyond every door. Link did not have the patience nor the time to look through every door. However, seeing no other way, Link subjected himself to knock on every door until he found the one that housed the young hero. Quickly, the blond boy summoned the Stone Mask once more and got to work.

It was tedious and got old very fast. Link went to every door on each floor. So far there was no sign of the young hero nor his companion; Only disturbed adults and one small child who was reprimanded by their mother for answering the door. The floor he had found himself had quickly yielded no results but Link found the moving room easy to operate. The numbers listed on the wall next to the sliding doors corresponded to the number of floors the building had. Link had found that he was on the fifth floor, the second highest in the building. The trigger to the entrance, or first floor, was labeled 'L.O.B.B.Y.' and the rest went from two and up to six. The process of choosing a floor and clearing a long hallway was boring and tiresome to the boy. It was actually on the sixth floor, the last floor Link had decided to check, that he had finally found the correct room.

The boy, the young hero's companion, had answered the door to a woman holding a strange rectangular shaped, red bag. Link quickly hid behind a fake potted plant when he spotted the two figures, easily hidden and out of the way before they had the chance to even glance in his direction.

"Alright so its gonna be thirty, fifty-seven," the woman said as she handed the teen three large boxes. Link watched the teen hand the boxes off to someone he couldn't quite see before reaching into his trouser pocket and pulled out two crumbled pieces of green paper. The woman accepted the thin papers and reached in her own pocket but the other teen stopped her with an easy smile and wave of his hand.

"Nah, keep the change." Link figured that the green paper was this lands form of currency and wondered what the hero's friend had purchased. The young woman only nodded, sending the teen a small smile before turning towards the moving room. The blond froze but kept his eyes on the now closed door as the young woman left the current floor. He sat still for another long while, debating on how to proceed. Link sighed as he stood and removed the Stone Mask. He did not know how to go about things but his legs had begun to cramp. He debated to himself for a moment before bringing out the Fierce Deity Mask once more.

He took his time walking to the door but found himself facing the wooden entrance in mere seconds. Link steeled himself and took a deep breath before he lifted his fist and gave three solid knocks on the wooden surface. He heard movement inside and nearly giggled at the sound of a loud bang followed by low cursing. A loud set of footsteps grew closer to the other side of the door prompting Link to adjust his stance to look as unintimidating as possible. The masked boy smiled on instinct, even though he knew no one could see the expression underneath the mask, as the door finally swung open.

Link watched as the young hero's friend eyes traveled from his middle, his mouth agape, before finally meeting his eyes. The blond raised his hand to wave in greeting but stopped when the heavy set boy suddenly began screeching in fear. Link flinched back, his hands shooting up towards his pointed ears, and saw the teen move to slam the door in his face. Link quickly moved to stop the swinging door with his foot and winced at the shooting pain that laced up his leg. Link sighed and shook his head as he quickly entered the room and shut the door behind him.

The screaming teen somehow made it across the room within the three seconds it took Link to enter and held an odd looking vase up in defense. Link held his hands up in defense and stood stock still in front of the door. Unfortunately, the other boy took this as Link blocking the only exit to the home and threw the vase towards Link's head. The masked boy quickly rolled out of the way and mentally cursed. This was not the best first meeting.

"Peter!" the teen screamed as he picked up an identical vase. Peter. That was the name of the young hero from his visions. He remembered that now. He was not currently in the room but Link figured he was nearby judging by the way his friend was glancing down towards the hall. Link turned back to the panicking friend and again held his hands up and willed for the teen to calm down. It didn't work. "Peter some freaky dude is doing something with his hands! Oh my GOD, HE HAS A SWORD!"

Link actually sighed through his nose at that. It wasn't like he was swinging the sword around or anything. Quickly thinking of a way to de-escalate the growing tension Link pulled the giant sword from his back, fully intending to drop the weapon between them. However, the moment the sword was held in front of him, a sudden stinging pressure hit his hand causing Link to drop the sword on the floor in front of him.

Link gasped at the suddenness and swiftly turned to face the direction of where the projectile originated from. The boy didn't even have the chance to find the source when the same pressure hit his arm. Link's eyes shot towards his left arm and gaped at the odd white rope stuck to it. Link pulled at the rope with his free hand but stopped when yet another bit of rope hit and stuck his hand to his arm. Link finally recognized the weird rope as a weapon the young hero had used and fought himself to stay still. He figured if he moved or looked at all aggressive, the teens may see him as a threat. Link didn't want to start a fight.

Again Link wished Navi was here to speak on his behalf. She definitely would have scolded Link for scaring the boys if she were here. But Navi wasn't here. Link would have to figure it out on his own. With boy his hands stuck, Link turned to finally face the young hero. He hunched his shoulders and froze in place, hoping the teen would take his surrender for what it was. Peter, at least he thought it was Peter, seemed to look at him from behind the large white lenses before his masked head turned towards the large sword on the floor and then to his friend.

Link barely had the time to blink before he saw Peter lift his arms and begin shooting more of the white ropes at him from his wrists. The impact actually hurt more than Link had thought and it wasn't long before his whole torso and legs were wrapped in the sticky substance. The boy tried wiggling his arms to free himself but the white rope held strong. Nevertheless, Link knew that if he applied a bit more pressure, he could very easily snap the ropes off. He refrained from doing so.

A sudden push from his side had Link falling to the ground beside his sword. Link gasped as he felt his mask slip and quickly pressed his face onto the carpeted floor, pushing the mask more securely on his face. The three boys sat quietly for a moment before Peter made another move. Link felt a hand grasp onto his leg tightly before he felt himself being dragged across the floor. He turned his head as far as he could to try and gauge the young hero's expression but the red mask blocked his whole face.

A quiet gasp brought Link's attention back to the young hero's friend. He had finally put down the strange vase and was trying to lift Link's sword from the ground. From his expression, the sword must have been more than a little heavy in his inexperienced grasp. Link sighed, not knowing how he felt seeing one of his weapons in someone else's hands but relented. It didn't bother him as much as it should but he really hoped the teen would at least be careful with it.
