    Summary

    Time opened his eye to a world on fire. The bittersweet smell of smoke forced its way into his lungs, and he coughed. Above him, where the roof used to be, was the moon, just as terrible and big as it had been in Termina. It filled Time’s vision.
    “Oh, thank Hylia you’re awake.”
    Time reluctantly peeled his eye from the giant red one in the sky and looked at the person in front of him. Warriors. His blond hair swayed gently in the breeze. The plate armor reflected the red light. His blue scarf was slightly torn by the hem. In his hand was a sword, ready to defend them both if needed. Time thought Warriors looked more like the typical storybook hero than Time ever had.

    Ten different versions of how the Chain met. The first nine chapters will feature a story in which eight of the Links meet their last member. The last one will feature a story about how all of them meet at once. Title may be subject to change.

    Summary

    Link is a failure.

    It’s something he’s always known, he thinks, deep down within himself. A heavy feeling it is: failure. It seeps in through his nose, clogging his throat and making it impossible to breathe, swirling around his temples and bringing a constant ache, settling into his stomach with a weight that brings him to his knees. It loops around his arms, his fingers, holding him in its clutches until he can do nothing but succumb.

    Here, in this space between light and dark, this pocket of in between realities, he succumbs. He falls, down and down and down, plummeting to a dark sea. Black and red. Blood and deep, deep water. But Link does not sink. No, he walks. That feeling, horrible and domineering, pulls him like a puppet along the raging sea.

     

    In which the Chain meets after the events of Tears of the Kingdom and Sky is the last to join. It takes time for trust to be earned, especially with added confusion regarding the Goddess and timelines.

    You know the drill.

    Summary

    Most Sheikah swore fealty to the goddess, and eventually the royal family, from an early age. Those who trained to be in service of either would have an official ceremony where they swore to give their lives to serve the goddess and protect her bloodline.

    This was the duty that Legend had, but that duty had nothing to do with the decision he made.

    Summary

    “Pity your previous sword couldn’t bear the full might of such power…” Ghirahim sighed, only to grip Sky’s arms with sudden fervor. “But I can, Link. I will grant you more strength than you could ever dream of, and you—you can give me a purpose.”

    The thought was appalling. It was blasphemy. It was absurd. Did Ghirahim honestly think he would agree to it? “Never,” he snapped. He would never entertain even the thought of allying himself with such a malicious creature.

    For just a blink, Ghirahim’s soft smile faltered, only to be plastered back on.

    “It’s only fair, skychild,” he said pleasantly. “You killed my master.” His voice hardened. “I am now your right.”

    ——————

    Or: Sky is ecstatic to be back home, but his hopes are dashed by the reappearance of Ghirahim. The chaos of fighting black-blooded monsters and chasing the shadow is only made worse by a desperate Demon Lord who will do anything it takes to make Sky his master.

    Summary

    “SKY!”

    He hears someone, Four maybe, shout his name from across the clearing. He lands on his right arm, hard, screaming internally as something snaps. He moves to lift his head, assure Four that he’s okay, but he can’t move. It’s just like before.

    He can’t move.

    ~

    Sky has narcolepsy, but he doesn’t know it yet. A sudden sleep attack mid-battle puts him at risk, and he struggles to accept his new condition and rely on his brothers.

    Things change. Adjusting is hard. Surrounded by them all, Wild isn't sure what it means to be part of The Chain. He's less sure what it means to be Link.

    Summary

    When nine heroes were brought together on an adventure, they'd thought that that was all that they were; nine heroes, nine brothers, nine Links, all called to save the world together, as a team.
    When evidence starts to indicate that one of them is more than that though, each hero takes it upon himself to defend his new knowledge and the brother that it concerns, unbeknownst to the rest. After all, princes aren't taken well to in Hyrule, and trust each other though they might with their own lives, they're not yet ready to trust each other with someone else's, especially when that person is Hylia's own blood.

    Summary

    When Sky, Hyrule and Four stumble upon an injured baby dragon in the wild, Sky isn’t sure why he’s so drawn to it, or why it seems to like him so much. But they can’t just leave it there…

    Summary

    Sky is not particularly close with any of the heroes, and none enough to feel free to express himself properly too, or so he thinks. Still, when emotions are running high and he's at the end of his rope, he's surprised to find one of his brothers ready with open arms, and of course it's the one person nobody else believes is capable of it.

    Or

    Five times Sky got a hug from Legend and one time where he gets to initiate it.

    There's a difference between exhaustion and sleepiness. There's a difference between fatigue and numbness. In a moment of calm on the Chain's adventure, Sky finds himself somewhere in between.

    Summary

    Sky's breath hitches. They are similar. Sky can see it every time he looks at Wild for a moment too long, every time the hero tells of his own tale. Their stories are similar, but they are terribly, terribly different in all the ways that matter.

    Wild turns, slowly.

    "You…never defeated Demise, did you?"

    ---

     

    (or: Hylia's Heroes have been gathered from across time for one, final quest. Their enemy is closer than any of them recognize.)

    (or: Or: Of all the heroes Demise could have ordered him to kill, it just had to be the one with resurrection powers. Honestly, he thinks Hylia might just be playing with him at this point.)

    Summary

    Why was Sky being kind to him? Why was he giving him an excuse? He should be furious with Hyrule for getting them into this mess. Because he’s a kind person. Because if his worst enemy tripped in front of him Sky would stop and help them up, because that’s just how Sky is. Pain and shame flickered behind Hyrule’s ribcage but Sky was speaking again, his eyes low, his voice a hesitant whisper: “It’s just I… I think I recognise this place.”

    Hyrule doesn’t dare hope he’ll survive the night. And Sky finds himself fighting an unexpectedly personal battle.

    Summary

    Link stood, staring at the spot where Demise once stood. Smoke billowed from the place as the endless sky cleared. The darkness siphoned within the Master Sword. For a moment, he was lost. Floating through those clouds, the endless serenity where Demise cast his final words unto him. He dared to feel at peace.

    The Sword that Seals Darkness gleamed in its pedestal, shimmering the same as the tears falling down Zelda’s cheeks. Their final goodbyes to dear friends rested with her, but the heart still yearned for them. Link turned, his own eyes watery as he faced Groose and Zelda.

    It was over. They were going to be okay.

    Summary

     

    Time was there for them. He always was. Long ago, he had stepped in willingly as their parental figure, and ever since then, he had promised his boys that they were always allowed to be comforted, valued, and happy. And no matter how much of a struggle it was to convince them to love, Time won't ever give up. Not on himself, not on his boys.
