For more drawings go to my Instagram account! @its_heartfilia I'm not all that good and not really patient enough to complete the entire drawing but whatever! 😁 I'm so happy to finally publish this! I worked so hard on this story!
I hope you enjoy!

There's nothing better than coming back from work after a long double shift and going home to take a shower and pick up my feet on my bed that's been waiting for me since I left this morning. I swear, I hate working so much in a restaurant. If only life didn't hate me so much to give me such a crapy job. It's the only one I could find. There's nothing else I can stand really, but work is work... And life is just unfair

Driving home was just the start of my night. Working a double on the weekends is the most annoying thing since man kind has been created. Just kidding, don't want to be that dramatic, but still.

Once I got out the shower, with my sore feet, my phone vibrated showing that I received a message. No, it wasn't a message. What do I look like? I don't have friends. I'm a complete loner. Maybe that's what I need to work on, stop whining about life and go to school like my mom wants me to do. I hate school and I hate work... So what do I want to do? I want to stay locked in my room in the dark with my phone and games until I grow tired, that would be my dream job. But then again... It'll end up making me fat and then where will I be? Oh right, fat

No, it wasn't a message I received, it was a reminder to get ready for the next day. Now I don't know why I torture myself like this. I guess I want to make it to the point where I'm so tired of my life that I'll actually get some motivation to actually do something!

Ignoring the stupid reminder, I got something from the fridge. Of course it would be something unhealthy, and went back to my room to lay down and grab my 3DS. The screen turned on. Immediately clicking the Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time: button, I went to my second saved file, since the first one was completed, and begun the new game I've been wanting to play since I completed the first file the other night

Legend of Zelda is truly the best game I had ever played. It's confusing with all its puzzles, it's long as hell, which makes it all more adventurous. It's exciting, it makes you think the hell out your brain, and the story plot is wonderful. I'm a sucker for story plots in video games more than the puzzles, but aside the point. This game is the only one I own at the moment and it's the best I have out of all my collection of other DS games I have stuffed into my Pikachu backpack

The intro where the Great Deku tree started talking began, telling of a young boy who doesn't have a fairy. I remember hearing about the Legend of Zelda when I was a kid but I never took interest in it until I became an adult. I regret never knowing about it so it could have been part of my childhood. I'm like a child now, so I guess it still counts

Playing through the game took me forever, but once you do something right, you pretty much have it memorized. I'm sure I can succeed in this file instead of taking me months to complete the other.

Seeing Link and moving him to do all these things is fascinating to see. Often seeing videos showing that gamers going into real war, since their aware abilities are all high, I sometimes wonder if I'll be able to handle being in Hyrule with all this evil and darkness taking over. Anything would be better than being in this world with no path to go to. I don't even know what I like doing. I like drawing and playing games, and there are people out there who can make a career out of that, but I don't have... That motivation. I hate myself for being useless. If I could be in any game, it would probably be in the Ocarina of Time, since I already know everything that has happened. One can only dream... All though, I can't lift anything to save my life and I totally sucked in karate, so how would I even be useful there either? It's like I love putting myself down, I can't help it

I got through the game smoother than I did before. I feel smart knowing that I knew where I was going in such a puzzling game.

My eyes started growing heavy. I didn't want to fall asleep in the middle of the game without saving. Like last time where I lost my progress by draining the battery. That was a big mistake. I put my empty plate in the sink and went back to bed to lay down to stare at the darkness. Doing this, I thought about how pathetic my life is. Im still a teenager and everything. It'll be one more month until I turn 20... Seeing how fast my life is passing by me, I start tearing up. My mom is asleep in her room, she's always telling me to go to school... There's nothing out there for me. It's like this world didn't give me anything... It's like I wasn't fated to be part of it. Continuing to put myself down, my eyes closed on their own, sending me to a deep sleep.

When you're young, you never want to take naps or go to bed at night. No kid will ever know how good sleep feels until you become older and have to suffer life.

Dreams are the best part of sleep, they send you to another better world or worse world if your brain just hates you enough. When getting a better world, you start seeing all these possibilities, or even start seeing unrealistic things that can never happen... Like your fictional crush liking you back and you end up getting married. Ha, me getting married? Like anyone would want to marry a loner like me

It's not easy getting yourself a crush. People call me a heart breaker, but I'm just awfully honest that it can sound off rude. What can I say? The truth hurts. The only guy I could see myself with isn't even real... In fact, he was just in the game I put to the side

Link... He's the perfect guy. I mean really! He's handsome, he's strong, he's smart, he's caring, a great friend, protective, a swordsman, great with animals, etc. don't think I don't know the other Links from other games, I watch videos of other people playing them. I just happen to only have Ocarina of time.

Of course, he's just the guy no girl can get, and the guy no other guy can be. He's even handsome when he's angry (remembering a play through of twilight princess) I smiled in my sleep before I started seeing colors of a dream I'm about to have

This place was familiar to me... I've seen it pretty much like 10 times or so in the game? I was on the Sacred Realm. I was in the middle, facing the Sage of Light named Rauru.

He was super tall with his orange robe and gray beard. I don't remember him being as tall as a giant. The air around me felt oddly strange... Making my body feel much more lighter than it usually does. Thanks to all that junk food, it's usually heavy, but right now... I actually feel great! Why is that?

"Hello" the sage greeted with a smile and small bow. His voice was deep but smooth and sounded like one of those wise man from the movies. I smiled and waved shyly. My eyes gazed on my small hand, small enough to fit a 10 year old or something.

My eyes widened, turning my hands around over and over in shock before seeing that my entire body changed. I was a kid! I just thought this sage was a mountain or something because that's what dreams do to things you know are suppose to be right

"Huh... This is pretty cool" I told myself with a smile before looking back at the Sage "hi" he smiled at me again before offering me something with his big hand. There was a small piece of gold with no particular shape. It was attached to a gold string, the perfect size for my neck. I took it without question and put it on. Strangely enough, I could actually feel it like it was actual solid. This was suppose to be a dream

"I have been waiting for you for a long time..." Rauru said. I didn't say anything "do you know what you have there around your neck?"

"No"

"It's a broken piece of the Triforce of courage" I flinched "that's right... Are you aware of the era of the four swords?"

"Oh, yeah. Sort of" I never seen a playthrough of it, I've only seen a few clips of one "what about it?" This dream is really realistic, except for the fact that my body had changed. The air and feel around here felt amazingly real

"That is when the piece had been broken. When the hero slit into 4 different personalities, the body couldn't process the change as quickly when putting the four swords back in its pedestal. The Triforce within the hero of Hyrule's left hand had disappeared, breaking into 12 different pieces. After that era, the Triforce was never returned to the sacred realm. What you have there is all that came back" I held the necklace close

"After that Link passed on, it still never came back? What era are we in now?"

"I am sure you can guess" I opened my mouth in awe. So does that mean I'm in the Ocarina of time game "the broken Triforce had scattered from the young boy, taking much of who he is today away"

"What do you mean?"

"The four swords separated Link's personality four ways. Putting the sword back caused his heart, the Triforce, to be exact, to take many of his being today. Lacking these emotions or heart pieces, he grew up dull and without a desire for anything. It's up to you to find these broken pieces of his Triforce"

"Wait... What?" My heart was beating fast at his stern voice

"The pieces had created themselves to become part of this world, creating Link's body using that one personality it took from"

"That doesn't make sense" or I was stupid and just don't know how to understand proper English. I know what he's saying, but it's all too much to take in. This doesn't feel like a dream... This feels like life, but all the difference, I feel lighter and brighter

I looked down at the gold piece around my neck. This is a piece of the Triforce and a piece of his heart... "So if this is a piece of the Triforce... Which part of his heart is this?"

"Hope" so the pieces of the Triforce is basically pieces of his heart and emotions... I think I understand. My heart felt heavy... I'm trying to tell myself this is all a dream, but something in me is convince this is real... I'm freaking out. I would wake myself up, but again, I'm convince that this is real

"I see you are confused" he said "listen well child... You grew up in a different world. A world you've learned and lived... But that is simply a world that's been created as you slept within the sacred realm" I stared at him in disbelief, shock mostly "your mind has grown, but your body remained young... Only 5 years of time flowed within your body, but it seemed like 19 years had pass by for you... It's time to go back to the world you were meant to be in" tears ran down my cheeks. This... This is too good to be true. Not only did he tell me that I wasn't really living in a real world, but a dream, but he told me that I can go back to a world I've always wanted to be in... The Zelda universe

"Please... Don't wake me up" I cried. He smiled, petting my head. I don't want to wake up. I want this to be real... I would give anything to make this my true world. I would do all I can to stay here... I will do as he said and collect those pieces of Link's Triforce that took his heart.

"Go now child..." I nodded, seeing light surround me "return that piece to the hero... Find the other parts of his heart. Once you go back, you'll know what to do next. I believe you can help save Hyrule. And most importantly... Remember who you are"

I opened my eyes, seeing myself in front of a bridge... This leads to Kokiri Village! Looking down at my 10 year old body, I saw myself wearing some stylish light rose pink sleeveless shirt with a whitish skirt. The gold patterned thread in front of the shirt was pretty, resembling Hyrule's style in clothing. What made me stare at my outfit more was the upside down Triforce sewed in gold right on my collar. This outfit was simply to die for. The rose colored strap sandals wrapping around my ankles were just as cute, but lack any pattern

Looking back at the other side of the bridge, I have to remember that this is the game... In real life pretty much. I'll end up getting hurt if I don't watch out. First things first... I have to find Link's main body. I'm sure it's around here somewhere

My body started shaking when passing the bridge. I was actually doing this... I'm going to meet Link and go to Kokiri Forest! I better watch myself and not get lost in the Lost Forest. Don't want to turn into a Skullkid. Huh... I wonder how Link went through the forest without getting lost. He doesn't have a fairy to guide him

I passed the bridge, only to already run into someone. Not just anyone... Saira! She turned around to notice I was staring "huh?" She faced me before putting on a smile "hello visitor. What brings you here?" Visitors are allowed? "We don't often have people coming here, though adults aren't allowed. How did you get here on your own?" Oh, I get it now

"O-oh... Sorry, I was just strolling around. Do you mind? I'm looking for someone" she looked confused

"Someone? Who would that be?" she offered her hand "I'm Saira by the way, and you are?" I smiled, taking her real hand... The warmth of her hand is so real... Just like the feel of Rauru's hand on my head

"I'm Lina... I'm looking for Link" Saira's eyes widened, letting go of my hand

"Why do you want to see Link? He doesn't know anyone but us Kokiris. I can tell you're not a Kokiri. You might be a kid, but your clothing and hair is completely opposite of a our kind" my hair?

I grabbed the ends of my hair to see that it's a bright blue color! W-what..? There's no reason why it should be blue! I mean, I always wanted it this color, but why did it change color like this? It seemed longer than it did before too, just at the length of my elbows

"I'm not a Kokiri... I'm a Hu- Hylian..." Is that considered the same thing? Saira only stared "I mean no harm... I just want to see him"

"How do you know of him?" I played with my fingers, staring down at them, then saw that I had a shoulder bag. I curiously opened it to take out my ocarina I remember ordering online! This should get her to let me pass! It's a good thing I learned all the songs

Playing Saira's song, she gasped amazed "you know my song? Have we met before?" I smiled

"You can say that..." She smiled

"Alright then... I'm not sure who you are, but you seem truth worthy. Come, I'll take you to Link's tree!" She took my hand and ran me into the Kokiri village. How beautiful... Here we go, I'm about to meet my one true hero and crush... What will be my expectations?
