Luna's P.O.V

I couldn't think clearly tonight- I keep sensing that something bad is going to happen.  The night is still very stormy, and I can hear thunder clashing violently as the rain pounds the window like a hailstorm.  It has to mean something- and my sister's not sleeping well.  She said that she can sense it, too.

I mean, we've already gone through the heck that happened to Equestria and Tirek nearly stealing every single pony's magic.  To be honest, I would be worried for the future of Equestria if he teams up with another villain.  As I continue to fly through the chilly night sky, I notice a mysterious figure walking out of the Everfree Forest.

I quickly follow that figure, and this figure turns around.  The hood is pushed back, revealing a dark brown pony with dark red hair and a yellow crystal on his forehead.  His eyes are reddish-yellow.  There is a strange symbol on his cloak.  He is also as tall as Nightmare Moon.  "What do you want?" He asked with cruelty.

"Tell me who you are," I said, "What are you affiliated with?"

"Affiliation?! Everypony knows I'm evil."  He scoffs at my words, as if he's mocking me.

"Tell me what your name is, before I tell Twilight Sparkle and her friends to find you."

"My name's Ganondorf, and I'm stronger than anypony else! How can they stop me? They're apparently weaklings.  You must be a weakling because you're royalty."

I feel anger boiling in my heart.  He's just so cruel that I want to fight him- for real.  "I'm not weak!" I declared.

"I've heard news about Tirek........." Ganondorf replied.

"Don't you dare try to bring the land to total destruction!"

"You're just like Princess Zelda sometimes because of your strong will."

"Who is she? And how else am I like her?"

"She's from Hyrule. And you're a princess- and you're also protective of your subjects and you are willing to send your own heroes on quests if there's 'evilness' in the land."

"Okay- I've never heard of that kingdom. How did you get here?"

"There is a border that mysteriously leads to this place."

He is seriously frustrating.  He's not giving me full details- just simple sentences as if he's trying to keep something from me.  I want to know the truth! He seems likely to be a liar.  He sounds cruel and insincere, and his eyes are filled with evilness.  He reminds me a bit of Tirek and also of King Sombra.  He is really muscular in appearance, too.

Just then, Ganondorf starts to lose his temper.  "Where is Tartarus?!" He shouted, "Tell me already!"

"No!" I retorted, "I'd rather protect the land!"

I quickly fly into the air as I start flying towards the castle.  The moon starts to set as the storm clears up.  As I enter the castle, Celestia stops me in my tracks.  "Did you find a villain?" She asked.

"Of course. Let's hope he doesn't find out about Tartarus," I replied, "If he brought Tirek to Equestria, then something terrible will happen!"

"Who is he?"

"His name is Ganondorf."

"We must tell Twilight Sparkle and her friends to find this villain."

"But, he's quite dangerous and he could possess other ponies."

"Don't worry about that. Are you ever afraid of him? You sort of seem like it."

I think for a minute.  Sometimes Celestia would ask if I was scared of a certain villain.  Most of the time I would say no. But, sometimes, the villains scare me even though I put up a brave front.  "A little," I admitted quietly.

"Don't worry," She replied, "We have guards that could also protect you. Even I could protect you."


Zelda's P.O.V

I have trouble sleeping, so I decide to wake up early.  It's almost six thirty, and the sun has not completely risen.  Ganondorf has probably gone off to another land to revive another villain- or so it seems.  Link is probably sleeping at this time- he's such a heavy sleeper.  It probably rained so hard last night- that's why the windows are wet and the grass is completely soaked.  Instead of my dress, I change into my fighting outfit.

Because of alicorn wings, I can wield the sword.  I can use a bow and arrow because of magic.  Another kingdom would have to be saved from destruction- first, the Twilight Realm, and second, Lorule, and now, a new kingdom with probably another dark and mysterious princess that's affiliated with Good Darkness.  Well, Hilda was a bit evil at first, by the way.  Midna was a bit mischievous- and I wonder what the kingdom's princess is going to be like.

I also pull on a cloak to conceal my identity- most ponies in this land should not need to recognize me.  Funny thing is, Link says that I'm mysterious with the hood on.  I then set off for Ordon Village- and I fly into the air.  The air is warming up as the sun rises higher into the sky.  It's early autumn, so we still have warm days.  Sometimes the days will be cooler.

As I reach the south, I notice a small village.  I land onto the ground, and then I start running into the village.  I approach a treehouse, and Link might still be sleeping.  "Come on down!" I called, "It's me, Zelda!"

A face pops out of the window.  "Okay, Zelda. What is it?" Link asked as he lands onto the ground.

"Another kingdom needs our help.  We must go stop Ganondorf in that kingdom.  I'll show you the way," I replied.

"Okay."

We both start flying into the air, and we fly out of the village into the north.  We start following a path that we've never seen before- a path to another land.  "Hey, check it out," I said.

"What is it?" Link asked.

"Do you see another castle in the distance? We may meet another dark and mysterious princess."

"Maybe. I don't know......"

"You'll see."

We land onto the ground as we continue talking about another princess in that kingdom.  "Whenever we enter another kingdom, we always have to help a princess," Link said.

"I know," I replied, "Sometimes they take the damsel-in-distress positions. You have had crushes on Midna and possibly Hilda.  Well, Midna broke the link between her world and this world.  Hilda used her magic to close the links between worlds. Maybe this princess would be glad to keep it possible to go between kingdoms."

Link blushes for a minute.  He then has a sad look on his face.  "She might be another Midna or Hilda- I never got to see them again," He said.

"Don't worry," I replied.

As we continue to talk, we find ourselves in a town that surrounds the castle.  A few hours must have passed.  A group of ponies seem to notice us.  "Are you needed at the castle?" The lavender alicorn asked.

"We're going to meet with the rulers of this land. They may need our help," I replied, "Call me Zelda. This is Link."

"Alright. My name's Twilight Sparkle-" The lavender alicorn started.

"Okay, so is this who you're talking about?" Link asked me.

"No. I'm talking about a more important pony," I replied, "You shouldn't interrupt."

"Sorry."

I give him a serious look as I turn my attention back to Twilight Sparkle.  "The ponies that are with me, are my friends.  This is Apple Jack- and she carries the Element of Honesty," She said.

"Nice to meet you," Apple Jack said as she shakes my hoof.  She reminds me a bit of Malon, the country mare from Hyrule.

"This is Fluttershy," Twilight concluded as a yellow pegasus cowers before me.

"You don't need to fear me," I said, "I expect smiles of appreciation, not frowns of terror."

"My name's F-Fluttershy......." The pegasus said meekly.

Her name is very fitting for her, since she acts shy and timid.  I push back my hood to reveal my benevolent smile.  She seems to calm down a bit, but she still seems to suspect something about me.  I'm not evil- I just wear a cloak to conceal my identity! What's on her mind?  "It's okay, Fluttershy. I won't hurt you," I said.

"This is Rainbow Dash. She's very brash and tomboyish," Twilight concluded.

A cyan pegasus shakes my hoof.  "My name's Rainbow Dash. I'm Wonderbolt material and I protect my friends! I'm proud to represent the Element of Loyalty.  Fluttershy represents Kindness," She said as she stops shaking my hoof.

"My name's Rarity, and I represent Generosity," A white unicorn said.

"Nice to meet you," I replied.

"Hey! My name's Pinkie Pie and I love parties," A pink earth pony said with excitement.  She almost reminds me of Princess Peach because she's cheerful.

We all walk into the castle.  "Celestia controls the sun, and she was once my mentor," Twilight said, "And she has a sister that once became Nightmare Moon long ago, but she's released by the Elements of Harmony.  Princess Luna, who is free from her, may seem cold at first, but she's very warm once you get to know her well.  She deserves respect, not disrespect. She can be funny sometimes, but most of the time, she's serious. She's still a bit old fashioned."

"Interesting," Link said, "Luna sounds like a decent pony. Is she beautiful?"

"Of course! She has a starry night mane. Her sister has a pastel colored mane."

We enter a throne room, and two alicorns sit upon their respective thrones.
