Link stood before king Dorephan two years after Mipha had caught him stealing a trident.

"Sir, I am upset to inform you that Calamity Ganon is rising once again. King Roam has sent me to get the help of all the leaders of each race, and have them send there finest warrior," Link said. "I hope you know your make your decision well, the fate of our world rests on it."

"I shall go," Doraphan said. "No need for my people to die, I will stand by Roam and the others to fight Calamity Ganon."

"But daddy!" Sidon said, "What if you die?"

"That is a risk I'm willing to take, Sidon," Dorephan said. "Well Link! Show me the way."

"Yes my lord," Link bowed and walked towards Hyrule Castle. Mipha stopped him half way.

"Listen, if my dad doesn't come back, I will kill your dead body," Mipha growled. Link smirked and replied: "But I'll be dead, princess, can't kill me."

Mipha tried to hit him, but he held her back by placing a hand on her head. 

"Goodbye Mipha," Dorephan said.

"So long fish woman!" Link said, walking away with Dorephan. 


*A Week Later*


Link showed up at the Domain shaken, and depressed. He walked through the Domain, straight to the throne room, to see Mipha sitting, eating a fish. She noticed Link.

"Where's my dad?" she asked. Link didn't say anything. "Link, where's my dad?"

Link gasped a few words out, "With Hylia."

"You said you would bring him back!" Mipha yelled. She walked up to him and slapped him. He flinched. "Oh, that hurts you, does it? How does surviving the worst battle in history not make you tougher?!?!?"

Link began sobbing, his tears flowing. 

"You think you get to cry? No! You let my father die! Tell me why you let that happen? Huh? Huh?"

Link sobbed some more. His cries became wailing and his tears became rivers.

"You big baby! You let the king of the Zora's die and all the other's die? And you cry because I'm yelling at you? Some Hero!" She yelled, walking away.

Links wailing became louder and louder, his face wet. Gloom that had dried was now dripping off him. 

"Because they gave their lives for me! I killed Ganon, they held him down!" Link wailed, his throat almost bleeding. "But before he died, he shot me with an arrow in the face, an electric arrow. It hurts to talk. I cry for the loss they gave for me, and all of Hyrule. IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN ME!"

Link huffed and puffed, and drank a bottle of fairy tonic.

"He, died for you?" Mipha gasped, "He barely even knew you. What a stupid sacrifice."

"THEY DIED FOR ALL OF HYRULE!" Link shouted. He burst into a fit of coughs and fell over wheezing. 

Mipha sat down by him. 

"Hmm. Maybe you are a hero."
