The Halls

A Quite Unexpected Turn of Events.

John's POV.

My name is John Lee Hall. A Guardian chosen by the goddesses of Hyrule. And this is my story of how my life turned for the better.

I've lost practically everything. And being in a war I shouldn't even be fighting in is taking a toll on me as well. But it was this day that it would make a turn around.

I sat at my computer as always, making videos for YouTube to keep up with the bills and using any money my parents had left to me to feed myself and my pets. However, the goddesses thought I needed a break.

As I was working however, a portal opened up in my house, I turned in my swivel chair and stood up looking at it.

"What the? A portal opening on it's own? Well that hasn't happened since-"

I was cut off by me suddenly being sucked into it.

Needless to say I was surprised and I did scream a bit. You would too.

Anyways I ended up in a forest in the middle of the night.

"Of course." I thought to myself.

I looked around at the many pine trees and spruces around. I was on soft green grass as I stood up. I looked up at the moon and noticed it to be about nine thirty.

"Guess I should try to find a clearing. There's mountains there so they should be a good spot." I said as I started to wander forward.

I wandered for a couple minutes looking around. I looked through the trees and saw somewhat of a forest clearing, but it was natural.

I was curious and walked towards it thinking it might give me a clue as to where I was. The place was familiar, but I couldn't tell why, that is, till the rocks started moving. I backed up naturally until I was surrounded by, well, rock trolls that maybe stood to about my knee, but I'm tall so I don't think that was so. I kneeled down to say hi to them.

"Um...hello..." I said waving my fingers to them.

They just stared, blinking at the same time which was quite creepy to say the least. It was like this until one troll spoke up. He was a little guy that made me pick him up.

"Who are you?" The little troll asked.

"I'm John...John Hall."

"I like you."

"You do?"

"Yep!"

"Well then um..."

"Bulbs, what are you doing with that boy?" An older voice called.

"Grandpappy!" Bulbs called out and jumped out of my arms.

"I was just talking to John here!" Bulbs said.

"Oh really now? Is that what all this commotion is about?" Grand pappy chuckled at himself. He was lead by Bulbs and he looked up at me, I lowered myself as low as my knees would let me.

"Why hello there. John was it?"

"Yes sir.." I replied a bit nervous.

"Ooh and polite. What brings you here John?"

"Well, I couldn't tell you. Unless you would believe that a portal to another world sent me here. Hehe.." I chuckled nervously.

"Hmm...it's a first but it doesn't surprise me..." He said as he eyed me down, as if examining me.

"Is that...let me see your hand boy.." He said motioning for me to let him see it. I reluctantly let him see it and he grabbed it quickly.

"My my...you...could you possibly be..." He said looking up from my mark, which was glowing quite bright now.
