The Heart of the Race follows a modern Hyrule where Formula 1 racing defines heroes and legends. Rookie driver Link joins the struggling Hyrulean Racing, turning the team into unexpected challengers with his fearless talent and quiet determination. As rivalries ignite - from Ganon's reigning dominance to Revali's pride and Zelda's conflict between duty and dream - every driver races not only for victory, but for identity and purpose. Across roaring circuits and desert sunsets, courage, ambition, and destiny collide in a story where the true battle isn't just on the track - it's within the heart that drives it. *All characters belong to Nintendo save for some original characters. I own all the artwork used and for the story itself.* I hope you enjoy!

The night burned with fire and screams. Zelda stood amidst the chaos, her voice trembling between command and prayer. Then-through the smoke-a figure emerged. Cloaked in black, his blade shone with the light of the dying moon. Each strike carried purpose, fury, and something deeper she couldn't name. He was no knight of Hyrule, yet he fought as though its fate were his own. When the flames dimmed, and the silence fell heavy as ash, Zelda caught a glimpse of his eyes-bright, haunted, and unbearably familiar. And for the first time, she wondered if the kingdom's salvation... had been walking in shadow all along. - *I have a couple original characters, but all other characters belong to Nintendo. The pictures used belong to me*

School rivalries run deep. Championship games, fights in the bleachers, and bad blood that's been brewing for decades. Link is the star basketball player at Hateno High School. Their most hated rival being Kakariko High. So falling for one of their cheerleaders is definitely not a smart decision. - NOT MY COVER ART - MOST CHARACTERS BELONG TO NINTENDO

Marinette had gotten over her feelings for Adrien since she realized that it would never lead to anything. She was just too shy, and getting over her crush would get rid of the awkward tension in her head. So she did just that, erasing her feelings from her heart, shoving them to the deepest part of her mind. Now that those feelings were away, she was able to act the way she wanted. The friendly girl who loved fashion and had the daily job of saving Paris. Adrien, now seeing Marinette's true self begins to see her in a new light. But what if these feelings can't be reaprociated.

What happens when a popular girl finds out that a not so popular boy lives on the same street as she does? They start walking to and from school together. What happens when that popular girl has to bring a date to a Halloween party? You'll just have to see. I've been getting more and more annoyed, so I'll say it here in the descriptions. Please don't swear in my comment section. If you do, I'll delete it. Hate speech, swearing, and inappropriate comments will all be deleted. Also, note to readers, I love the character Lana, and I know very well that she's a lovable kind character, who is good. For the purposes of this fic, she ended up being bad, and I apologize, it wasn't supposed to go that way. It just did. I don't own anything in relation to the Legend of Zelda, I only own the writing. Thanks for reading! Full Edits 11/4/16 | 5/4/17 Epilogue added 11/4/16

While Zelda's ambitions send her higher, Link has been searching for a way down. His smile is perfect, his lyrics are better. The magazines love him and so do the charts and every time someone finds his albums in the stores, his pockets grow heavier. His name is adored everywhere and what could ever be better than that?

Zelda Hyrule's life has always been one that is not her own. Zelda has always been the spitting image of what her Father wants her to be. She has never broken a rule. That being, never been out past 9 pm, has never cut a class, and most importantly, has never, ever had a boyfriend. She goes to her private academy like her Father wants, and that's the end of her story. However, her fate takes an unfortunate turn when she accidentally gets herself blamed for something she didn't do and is expelled. Now, with her Father furious with her, she has no choice but to finish out her high school years at a regular public school. She has her eyes set on clearing her name, and no intention of staying in this crappy public school. As if by pure sheer coincidence, or maybe it was fate, she meets Link. Link, the silent superstar of the school, who, in her hour of need, comes to her side with no hesitation. She is undoubtedly drawn to him, yet she needs to stay away. As she progresses day by day, she meets a couple of new friends, and even a few enemies. Will Zelda clear her name? Or will she stay in this public dump for a couple of friends and a silent knight?
