I found this lingering around on my other hard drive so I thought I might start up on it again, revising the chapters for corrections or additional details of course.
Title: Legend of Zelda: Bond of Spirit
-------------
Prologue
-------------
It had been 4 years since Link's last heroic battle against time in which he waged war against many frightful characters, ranging from water-like tentacles, Skull Keetas, to an evil demon bearing one third of the Triforce. Through his Triforce of Courage, he was able to keep his fatigue from overtaking his will to keep the world in a state of peace.
Little did he know, there were evil forces working together in a place he had no way to get to, and things would be changing for the worse in the few days to come.

Chapter I
-------------
It's too quiet around here... you can hear yourself think. Thinking about that nightmare you've been having. And you know what happened last time you had nightmares, don't you? All hell broke loose... yup...something's going to happen, you can feel it... feel, speaking of feel, this feeling of fear won't go away... it keeps doing something to keep reminding you it's there... what is it doing? Tickling? Feels like tickling... no... trickling... it's trickling all over your skin like a flow of blood trickling down the pores of your skin... cold blood... cold, and thick...something bad is going to happen, and you know it...
Link's last few nights of sleep were restless, and full of nightmare. Full of deadly nightmare, and absolute horror. His most feared nightmare, in which Zelda, the Princess of this wondrous and peaceful green land of Hyrule, had fled from the castle in a quarrel with her father and ruler of Hyrule, King Harkinian, and had been captured and killed by a vaguely familiar character.
Link continued to mumble to himself small talk so as to break the silence in his mind. He was riding his faithful horse, Epona, along the murky expanse of a quiet and mysterious forest when a familiar voice in the back of his head spoke up and startled him.
Link...
Link paused for a moment, shaking his head, then called out, "Who's there?!"
No answer.
Link continued trotting Epona through the forest when the voice was heard again.
Link...
"Great. Now I'm hearing things. I need something to drink," Link mumbled to himself, pulling out a bottle from his pouch and consuming the water inside. "Need some of that hard stuff, but I guess this water will have to do."
Epona snorted.
"Yeah, I'm uneasy too. Scared shitless is more like it."
Link...
There it was again!
Link utters, "I know that voice!"
Hearing the gentle, familiar voice caused a flash back to part of his nightmare. His limited view of the horizon ahead faded from the dull, eery forest into the bright, sunlight-filled castle courtyard. He was surrounded by the green grass and beautiful flowers planted in the center of the courtyard, still mounted upon Epona, and could see and hear the conversation going on through the courtyard window which led to the throne room. He could see Zelda standing at one end of the stone-walled room, with her clenched fists at her sides. She had a clear look of disdain on her face, apparently towards her father and another man, whom he had not recognized from his previous nightmares. He was very tall, carried a mirror around with him at all times which leads one to think him to be quite a vain man, and donned heavy armor which shielded his scrawny frame. His mere appearance filled the room with a snooty atmosphere which seemed to linger around for miles to come, and thrive on Zelda's obvious disgust and hatred. One eyebrow was raised, his nose was pointed in the air, and his sadistic half-smile fueled the white hot flame of rage burning vigorously in Zelda's heart.
The conversation was barely audible; mere mumbles were what Link heard, until Zelda finally spoke out against her father. "Why, in the Goddess's land of Hyrule, should I marry a man whom I neither love, nor care for, but rather very much dislike? Not even if he were the last man on the planet would I marry him. He's--he's snooty, he's arrogant, he has not a care in the world for me, and he's UGLY!"
The tall man snickered, "I shall become an acquired taste, my dear. Heh heh heh." He shifted his posture in a way that was almost like him asking for someone to look at him. He slid his arm up and down his armored body as if observing it were a privilege, a gift to those in his presence. His arrogance and vanity, if not already, was clearly defined then.
Zelda's anger burst and she shouted "To hell with your self-centered, lust-filled fantasies about me, you sick son of a bitch!"
The King, obviously shocked at her display of disapproval towards her future planned husband, stuttered, "It is your destiny though, my Princess, to be married..." he began.
"Stop right there. You know, I appreciate and am grateful for most that you do for me, but this whole 'planned wedding' thing is making me sick to my stomach. I am only 16 years old, Father! I am not yet even fully matured! This is the rest of my life we are talking about, here! If I am to partake in a wedding that is planned and set long before it happens, I would prefer it to be with someone who I love and care deeply for. Someone like..."
Quickly snapping back to reality, Link could tell it was definitely her. He had a gut feeling she was somewhere nearby; her voice seemed distant, yet firm.
Link...
Link sensed a great urgency in her voice and concentrated to telepathically respond, Zelda? Is that you?
Again, there was no answer. He stopped Epona next to a pond and a circle of plants, and hopped down. His first real look revealed the sheer size of this mysterious forest to be very overwhelming. Directly in front of him was a massive, extremely tall tree. There were no branches on it for what seemed like miles, except a few branches at the top of the tree. Epona was happily grazing away on a crop of berry plants near the pond. He heard what sounded like a flock of bats hovering directly over his head. Instinctively, he drew his bow and aimed above his head, ready to plunge an arrow through something, but nothing was there.
Link sighed nervously, and said, "Man, I remember the days I at least had a fairy companion to talk to instead of just us. No offense, baby, but I don't speak horse that well."
Link heard the sound of grass rustling beneath feet. "Bring it on! I'm armed and dangerous," he yelled anxiously.
No reply. Link was getting impatient. "I'm sick and tired of these mind games, now show your face so I know what it looks like before I beat it in!"
He heard the rustling again and turned around. Link gasped in awe. Zelda, the young Princess of Hyrule, was standing before him. His mouth stood open as he was gaining his senses. Zelda's dress glistened under the ray of light pouring into the forest and swayed in the soft breeze flowing along the forest floor. Her golden blonde hair was let down to flow freely, which was unusual for Zelda as she usually had it braided and decorated. Her hair shimmered in the sunlight, which highlighted her face and illuminated her beautiful blue eyes. Through all her beauty and smiling facade, Link could somehow tell she was troubled. He tried to utter the words to ask her what was wrong, but nothing came out.
As if she knew what he was going to ask, Zelda spoke.
"I've run away from the castle, my father and I were having a pretty heated argument and he had the balls to 'order' me back to my room. I had a feeling you would be somewhere here, in the Forest of Illusions. No evil-hearted being can enter, because the spirit who lives here guards this serene forest like it were the world's most precious diamond. I don't know who or what encourages this spirit to guard this wondrous peaceful forest, but I have come here to be alone and away from it all ever since I was a little brat.
Nobody else knows about this place. At least, nobody from the outside world. The only other thing I know about this forest, even through my years of coming here, is that the spirit knows your thoughts and tries to make those thoughts become a lifelike vision, or a reality. But I digress. I'm glad you're here."
Link was finally able to speak. He cleared his throat and tried hard to keep his voice from cracking under the pressure of talking to a princess. "Are you..."
Zelda nodded, "Yes, I'm real."
Link gazed into her eyes deeply and saw a beauty he had never seen before. He realized he felt something more than platonic love for her. There was a part of his soul that seemed to get stronger and stronger the more he thought about her. It was a feeling he never knew, never felt before, and it was the most intense feeling he has ever experienced.
He spoke with a deep passion in his words, "Your eyes, they're so beautiful... ... If only I... i-if only--" Link stopped.
Zelda's eyes glowed as she asked, smiling, "What? If only you what?"
Zelda took Link's hand, hoping he would tell her what she wanted him to say ever since 4 years ago when she fell in love with her savior, and savior of Hyrule. She longed extensively to figure out the mystery in her love for him, however nothing she had ever come up with in all the time she has had has made any sense. She just knew that she loved him and wanted to spend the rest of her life by his side. Every night of the past four years for her has been filled with thoughts of Link. She couldn't get him off her mind.
She needed him. She needed him to tell her she loved him.
But Link's mind drew a blank. He blinked, his complexion turning as white as his bed sheet, and his mouth hanging open with no words coming out of it. With all the courage in his part of the Triforce, he couldn't even begin to speak of his feelings for Zelda without going completely pale, losing his train of thought, and becoming totally silent. He only hoped she already knew, because something kept him from saying it.
Link's facial expression grew serious. His mouth closed and his eyes cleared as he inquired, "What are you really here to tell me?"
Zelda's face turned red with despair, almost terror. Her heart began to pound twice as fast and her hand lost hold of Link's as it grew weak and started trembling. She looked
down and let a hard frown escape from deep down inside her spirit. "Have you been having nightmares lately--the prophecy kind of nightmares?"
Link nodded.
"A strange white haired child capturing and brutally murdering me?" Zelda stops.
Link nodded again, his expression slowly fading into terror as well as he realized this was very likely a prophecy, just as it was the last time he had nightmares.
Zelda, stumbling over her words, spoke lightly, "I-... I've been having them too. I tried to tell my father of it, as it could very well have been a prophecy, and you know how he always watches me like a hawk and wants to know every thought I think, every breath I take, every dream I have. But the fight was already set in motion... He was too busy with--he was going to... You see, my father and I, we were arguing about... He was... He was going to marry me to an arrogant, selfish piece of --"
Zelda couldn't continue with words as her voice had cracked, so she spoke to Link telepathically.
You probably saw him in the dream, the skinny man with the red hair and the evil snicker. My father says it's tradition to marry the next highest noble, but I don't understand how in the rotten blazing pits of hell he sees this man as a noble. His reputation is that he is a proud, vain, selfish and rude bastard and he never ceases to amaze me in how often he's backing that reputation up. His words are as cold as you can get and his feelings--his emotions.. I doubt he even has any, except of course for conceit and selfishness. If I were to be wed to this man, I don't think I could live with myself, or forgive myself or my father. Ever
A tear began to fall down her face, and she threw herself into Link's arms.
After a moment's silence, Link spoke, "I know... The dream, that argument was in the dream... You ran away from the castle and...were eventually captured by that child and killed... Well, no matter what happens, I won't let anything happen to you. I never did in the past and I'll be damned if it happens anytime soon!"
The sun set and the moon was beginning to bring its night shine into the forest.
Link asked, "Are you hungry? We really should look for something to eat..."
Looking down, he noticed that Zelda had already wept herself to sleep in his arms.
Link thought to himself. All those damn prophecies just have to be seen by her. Why Zelda? Why is it always her on the verge of death when an evil bastard attacks the land? What keeps making her the target? Are all these dark forces that keep trying to kill her from the future, and she does something in their time that they don't like? Am I just being a paranoid little shit assuming that all this isn't just a coincidence and that she doesn't just happen to come within inches of being stabbed in the neck? sigh... She looks like some kind of infant who's been wrongly accused for a crime, sentenced to death and completely oblivious of it. She looks so trapped... Trapped in this endless world of nightmares.
He picked her up and walked over to the huge tree in the center of the forest. A strange, godly sound filled the air for a brief second, then a large bed, which looked surprisingly comfortable and was covered by a red velvet quilt with a large golden Triforce symbol embedded on it, had appeared out of nowhere in the middle of the forest. Link walked over to it, not very shocked by its sudden appearance, and laid Zelda down into the soft bed which had been created by the spirit in the Forest of Illusions. He knelt down and kissed her on the forehead.
Link was only slightly hungry, as he had eaten a generous dinner a few hours ago, so he pulled up one of the berry plants next to the pond and wolfed down the berries, then ran his bottle through the pond filling it up with the pure water and drinking it. Yawning deeply as his fatigue quickly grew to heavy tire, Link dragged his feet behind him to the
other side of the bed and crawled in. Link had just gotten into the momentum of figuring out how he's possibly going to be able to protect Zelda at all times, when his exhaust overcame him and sent him into slumber. No more than an hour had passed when Link suddenly began to enter a dream.
Link was standing in the very center of the vast, tall forest, under the large tree holding a limp and lifeless Zelda tightly to his chest and crying.
Pleading to the goddesses, he saw himself kneel to the ground and pray. "Goddesses of Hyrule, I implore you... Bring the Princess of your great land back! Please, she has done no wrong."
Link looked up at the canopy of the forest, and he almost shrieked in his sleep at the terror of seeing what he saw there. That strange child from his other dreams, the one who had captured and killed Zelda, was now hovering over the forest. Tauntingly flying around him was each and every one of the evil forces he had destroyed, ranging from an evil hooded wizard named Agahnim, to two witch sisters Kotake and Koume, and an eery, evil-eyed moon.
Zelda was pulled into Link's dream as they both tossed and turned in their sleep. She gasped in horror as she took sight of her bloodied body in Link's arms but could only stand there idly as he cried his tears away in terror and pain. She couldn't move, or talk to him. She was trapped, again.
Inside the Evil Realm, a vast domain where evil forces are locked away, a massive collective of evil forces which were contained inside the Realm after being defeated by Link and his ancestors gathered as the wizard Agahnim used his powers to allow them to speak into Link and Zelda's dream.
The strange child spoke and was heard in their dream and throughout the forest. The deep, sinister voice reminded them of someone very familiar. "You shall soon enough meet the inhabitants of the Evil Realm and myself, Aidon, Son of the King of Evil, Ganon."
