The Pirate Prince

Chapter 1: Orphaned

Ganondorf look across the sand dune of the Gerudo desert atop his horse, his younger sister, Urbosa, rode behind him, the 12-year-old Gerudo girl sulking.

"I don't know why you're sulking, I think this is an ample opportunity for you to explore our home." Said Ganon, a massive grin on his face.

Urbosa scowled, "I'd much rather be with the Divine Beast, it's much more interesting than this."

"Yes, lest we forget the King of Hyrule's demands shall we." Scowled Ganon, he had no lost love for the King of Hyrule, while the Queen was polite and courteous, the King was rude and arrogant. Ganondorf remembered how the King had turned up one day, demanded to speak with him and then tried to make it seem that Ganondorf had grovelled at his feet. That was, until the Queen of Hyrule arrived. The pregnant woman had proceeded to calmly berate her husband in a tone that would've made shouting seem peaceful, Ganondorf snorted at the memory of how pale the King of Hyrule had gone.

It was then, the Queen had spoken of Ancient beasts that could fight, and possibly destroy, the Demon King of Evil, which they had done roughly two hundred years ago before they had to be abandoned. Ganondorf remember how the beast had originally been a Gerudo king, before he was defeated by the Hero of Time and the Seven Sages, the beasts quest and lust for power had turned him insane and transformed him into a monster, so much so that the Gerudo that had followed him abandoned him in favour of sealing him within a prison of the Beasts own making. But what the Queen had also told him had shocked Ganondorf to the core.

The Divine Beasts could also awaken the Colossi, ancient being with the power to destroy the world, created by one of the ancient Gods. The only proof that such creatures existed were the remains of cities that had been unearth below the surface of both the land and the Sea. It was rumoured that a couple of such creature were still around, sinking ships that dare to get to close to certain areas.

The Colossi, Ganondorf recalled, only answered to one being. The Chosen Hero, Hylia's Champion. Which made matters worse because if the Colossi were woken before the Hero was found, destruction would rain down upon the world.

"Nonnie!" Came Urbosa's voice, piercing through Ganondorf's thought like an arrow.

Ganondorf turned to face his sister, who was scowling at him.

"What?" Asked Ganondorf, frowning at how adorable his sister looks when she scowled.

"There's something over there." Pointed Urbosa, Ganondorf sighed, hoping it wasn't another Sand seal, those things had already taken many of the other Gerudo by storm, he hoped that they wouldn't take his sister as well.

What Urbosa was pointing at was something covered by the sand.

"Wait here." Said Ganondorf, dismounting his horse and drawing his Scimitar before approaching the object. What first got his attention was an arrow sticking out of the objects side, with some liquid staining that sand. Ganondorf nudged it with his foot, making it role over. Revealing a Hylian man wearing the garb of the King's Knights. Ganondorf frowned before looking around again and spotting another mound, this one at an odd angle, as if it were holding something. Ganondorf walked towards it before an ear-splitting cry erupted from the mound. Ganondorf rushed to it, noting that this one was the body of a woman, before spotting the bundle, Ganondorf looked closely at it.

"What do you think it is?" Said Urbosa, suddenly at Ganondorf's side.

Ganondorf jump at the sound of his sister's voice.
