Attack on Titan/Zelda crossover - To Hyrule and Back Again

Chapter Twenty: The Battle of Utopia

Link's Point of View

Second Day

-63 hours remain-

The Ocarina of Time certainly does work differently here.

Instead of the Song of Time resetting to the Dawn of the First day, it resets to the dawn of whatever day it currently is.

Instead of the Song of Double Time fast forwarding to a certain time it shows events that take place in the future.

Instead of the Song of Inverted Time slowing down time itself, it simply turns back time to a certain event the same day.

Due to these differences, Connie is now dead, and there's no way to save him.

It's been a bumpy ride, I think. But we're pulling through.

I look around the carriage I'm in. People I have known for merely a week surround me, yet it feels like they've been by my side for a long time. Something tells me they really will be by my side for a long time.

I take a look at Mikasa. She's sitting next to Eren, and while I don't know much about their relationship I can tell they care deeply about each other; Mikasa seems to be very protective of Eren, as well. They're strong in their own ways, both physically and mentally.

Then there's Armin. He's definitely an interesting person. Armin is smart and intelligent, but doesn't seem to give himself enough credit for all he does. He creates plans, strategizes, and is a good leader. He's sitting next to Sasha. Sasha is a usually happy and talkative person, but easily excited and frightened. Right now, though, she's completely devoid of emotion since, y'know...

Jean. He's currently driving the carriage because he has the least beef with FR. I don't really know much about him except he tries to protect our group before saving anyone else. I respect that. Some people will think it's selfish but I think it's smart. He thinks about us before them, and tries to keep us out of danger. Of course, that's the impression I'm getting. Haven't known the guy that long.

Ymir and Krista. They seem to really like each other. Ymir's a very mysterious person, and is even a titan. Another Titan Girl. Krista doesn't really seem mysterious, but I feel like no one really knows her except for Ymir. Maybe Ymir doesn't know everything. But Ymir does call her Historia for some reason. Weird.

I like these people, I really do.

Second Day

-62 hours remain-

"This is the place," Eren says, as a shadow is suddenly cast upon the carriage. I poke my head out to see a giant wall looming over a similarly giant field. The field is cut in half by a river we're riding next to.

"This is where we fought Reiner."

"We?" asks Mikasa.

"Ymir helped," replies Eren.

"'Helped'? If it wasn't for me you'd be dead, Eren."

"That's a lie and you know it, I was doing fine! By the time you came I was already beaten."

"Oh, shut your mouth. Who knows what they would've done with you if I wasn't there?"

Krista says, "Ymir, you seem to forget how he saved you the day after. If it wasn't for him you'd still be locked up. And don't say you would've found a way out."
