A Thousand Ways

Chapter 2: "Slipping through fingers"

<<Previous | Next>>

Event Masterlist

Legend didn't expect to survive, but now that he apparently has, and has the physical strength to move, he isn't going down again without a fight.

Warnings: panic attacks

For the first time in what felt like ages, Legend woke up warm. Too warm, everything was too heavy but the pain had somewhat subsided. His head still throbbed and rattled, his breaths shook and trembled, his body wouldn't cooperate with what he wanted it to.

Everything ached but that hadn't stopped him before. He'd been in worse condition and made it through whole dungeons.

"Hey, don't—"

The gruff voice sent his mind on overdrive. That wasn't his brothers--a threat then.

He let his meager magic lash out as he jerked away from the voice. The soft ground slipped out from beneath him and he yelped as he hit hard, cold ground. Pain shot up his already hurt arm.

Someone else cried out in pain. His back hit a wall and he tried to force himself to his feet. Everything around him was blurry and he couldn't see, his head spun faster than a tornado. He was nauseous and just overall in extremely bad condition.

"Restrain him!"

He staggered to his feet and was somewhat aware of something with a flat surface to his side. He grabbed something off it and smacked it at the shape that came near him.

Someone caught his wrist and tore whatever item he'd grabbed out of his hand. He couldn't bite back the cry of pain that was ripped from his throat as he was slammed into the wall.

"Stop! Release him!"

The hands disappeared. Legend pressed himself into the corner of the wall best he could, panic surging as his head throbbed and spun even worse. He had a chance here, they'd taken those goddesses-damned shackles off, he could run he just had to—

"It's alright," a soft voice pressed against the panicked haze. "You're safe, little one."

A blurry shape appeared in front of him. They were covered in magic, their spirit thick with it and he had to get away. He didn't have the energy left to hold up against a magical attack. They could do anything to him--still do anything to him, and he wouldn't be able to stop them.

He flinched as their magic prodded him. He couldn't get his body to respond in the way he needed it to--he was dead.

That magic surged and surrounded his, then it just... sat there. Encompassing and encouraging his to remain, to siphon from its energy and restrengthen. He froze up. That wasn't an enemy's attack, that was—

Hands landed on his arms and that train of thought was cut out. He tried to escape until arms fully wrapped around him. Just as the magic--familiar, warm, safe--surrounded him, he was pulled into someone's chest, soft humming that was equally as familiar as the magic resounded through his head.

Unwillingly, he went limp in their hold out of pure instinct, shaking and trembling.

"Shh, well done," that soft voice murmured. "You are safe, dear heart. Breathe. I will take care of you."

Something deep down, something instinctual, had him trusting them and relaxing. His panic fizzled out and so did his consciousness.

The next time Legend woke up, he felt safe and warm.

He was aware of the hand carding through his hair before he could open his eyes. He tensed as he became aware of his position and the hand faltered

"Are you awake?" That soft, stupidly familiar voice murmured.

He pulled himself away, disoriented and wary.

It was a woman with long brown hair and golden jewelry, she had startling purple eyes that were anything but new. He'd seen those same eyes on Fable, but this wasn't Fable.

"How do you feel?" She asked gently. Legend looked around, a fair bit confused and a bit shaken.

He didn't forget faces, but somehow he knew this woman and he didn't know from where.

"It's okay." He tensed as he realized her magic was surrounding and encompassing his still. "You're safe, I swear."

"Where—" his voice was hoarse, he almost wasn't surprised by that, "Where am I? Who are you?"

"Hyrule Castle," she answered, she seemed a little confused but didn't let it stop her. "I am Zelda. Who are you?"

"Link," he said hesitantly. "How... What happened?"

"You fell from a portal into my study," Zelda said, reaching toward him and halting when he flinched away. She let her hand fall. "You were in bad condition, so I and some healers nursed you back to health. What caused your injuries? It looked... deliberate, if anything."

He looked away. "Some rather violent men who don't take to well to someone challenging their actions or authority."

"I see... inflicted then. You've healed well, but I would ask that you take it easy. Your magic will not return for some time, even with my help."

Legend nodded.

"Do you know your measurements by memory? Or would you mind accompanying me to the castle tailor? Your tunic had been unsalvageable as it was, but we kept it in case you wished for it to be repurposed into something else for sentimental reasons."

Legend was startled by that. "I—Was there anything else?"

"No," she shook her head. "Nothing else."

He cursed under his breath. Who knew how much time would pass between then and whenever he next ended up in his era. He couldn't lose his stuff, especially not the medallions! He couldn't—he'd have to spend months hunting those back down. His other stuff should hopefully be with the other heroes, goddesses be merciful, but those medallions were immensely powerful and in the wrong hands they could destroy all of Hyrule Castle.

He recalled her question, sighing heavily and he blurted out his measurements.

"Any colors in particular? Green?"

He shook his head. "Red," he said. "And no pants, if that's alright. Just—a short dress, kilt length."

She nodded. "I'll relay that." She rose from the bed and Legend froze up as she carded a hand through his hair. "That door there goes into a bath. Feel free to use whatever, but I do ask that you place anything you use back where you found it."

He nodded and she smiled kindly before leaving the room.

Legend promptly let the shaky wall he'd thrown up once he'd realized he wasn't alone fall. His hands shook as he slowly worked his way over his body, noting new scars, a few bandages around his arms, and he slowly got to his feet.

He stumbled into the other room, locking and barricading the door behind him, before slumping down to the ground.

Images of those days, weeks maybe, of being pushed to the brink of death and dragged back forcibly burned behind his eyes.

Goddesses, he hated knights.

Whenever I make original incarnations of Link and Zelda, always assume that Zelda is gonna be taller. Always. No matter what.

I went to the bookstore today. And got Last Quarter volume one. And I also went to Best Buy. I wanted to get Pokemon Brilliant Diamond/Shining Pearl to replace my old copy,but they didn't have it. But they had Legends Arceus,so I went ahead and got that. And when I got home,the Red River Omnibus that @goofyzachy sent me arrived! So I'm happy. ^ ^

The CW really said “what if we acknowledged Ray’s comic roots and made him a 1950s college professor for all of five minutes” and then put Brandon Routh in a tweed suit and these glasses to destroy me specifically.

I think it’s so funny when npc’s refer to Link/Zelda as “Hylian blondie” bc it truly applies both ways
