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

Chapter Twenty-Two: Dawn of the Final Day

Link's Point of View

Dawn of The Final Day

-24 hours remain-

"Link..." Mikasa softly says as she awakens. "Why is Ymir tied up?"

I light a candle and place it on the ground, and then look at Mikasa.

"She betrayed us."

As the rest of the group awakens, I walk outside and look up into the morning sky. The sun is rising over the wall from the east, giving just enough light to see my surroundings but still causing the atmosphere to appear gloomy. The air around me is foggy, and the grass is wet.

I walk back inside and shuffle through my items bag until I find my roughed-up, golden hookshot lying at the very bottom. I study it for a brief moment, looking over how much damage has been done to it since I arrived in this new world. The trusty contraption I found in Termina still works, against all odds... I walk back outside. I look up towards the northern wall and aim my hookshot at the very top. Once I push my hookshot's button the chain flies forward until its edge digs into the top of the wall, and then I'm sent flying forward. I tumble down on the top of the wall and lie down, looking into the sky.

Dawn of the Final Day, I think. This is where it all ends.

This is the day the past week has been leading up to, ever since I found myself in this universe.

Who knows how far I am from home, how far I am from that old treehouse in the woods...

I hear the sound of ODM gear and stand up to see ol' Narrow Eyes swinging up to the wall. He lands in front of me, and I notice for the first time how short he is.

"You..." he says. "You're the one who was in Shiganshina?"

"Where?"

"The outermost, southern district... When she... teleported me there. I saw you, and attacked you..."

"Oh. Yeah. What about it?"

"I apologize, I was in the wrong state of mind. Annie was messing with my head. Teaching herself how to use her new powers, I suppose..."

"It's fine," I tell him, staring off in the opposite direction. There are titans down below me; they're scratching at the fifty-meter wall. Beyond that is grass, and the occasional tree. Though, a forest that's barely visible is off to the right of me. Its trees are giant, similar to Forest Cantavia's trees...

Once Levi jumps down into Utopia I sit down and dangle my legs off of the wall. I then look at my resonating triforce on my left hand. The two bottom pieces are shining more than the top. It feels like it's... getting stronger. The triforce, I mean. It's like Annie said, the power that surges through her... I'm feeling that.

But for some reason, when I wake up in the morning, it doesn't feel that much stronger, which it should...

I jump back into Utopia and approach the building the gang's staying in. Upon entering I see a woman who's seemingly interrogating Ymir. She has red hair, glasses, and looks angry.

"Don't give me that bullshit... I know this. I know what you're doing. We all do."

"And what's that?" Ymir asks the woman.

"You have your own agenda. You're not taking any sides... You're just doing whatever it takes to keep little ol' Krista safe. Well, what if," the woman says, walking away. She walks back into the room with Krista.
