"Long I had dreamed of a place where fighters come together to build up their skills, face many challenges along the way and grow within themselves. The Smash Academy was built for the purpose of potential warriors to develop their skills, hone their talents and develop relationships among people they can fight with and against. As the new year approaches, they will lead themselves on an unforgettable and worthwhile journey; they will experience many things along the way: many of which can be happy moments to heartbreak to loss. These all combined, will help them grow as a true Smash fighter." - Official statement from President Sakurai, the co-founder of Smash Academy. *Author's note - 11/01/2021: Hey reader! Really appreciate if you've started reading this. Please note I wrote this... Uh, about... 7 years ago and I was young and still navigating the world of literature and fanfiction so bare with me if the plotline is a bit strange (I'm currently having second-hand embarrassment thinking about this fic). Thanks! **also note that this fix takes place in an alternate universe and facts and official game releases do not necessarily correlate with what has been written in this story. I am aware of the history of Smash but decided to spin it for this fic.

Ganondorf has a new plan, one that has been decades in the making. If he were to kidnap the Hero of Courage while young, can the hero be used to capture the Princess of Wisdom and complete the Triforce? When he kidnaps the baby, something is wrong. Now looking for art! This is based on the general LoZ plot but doesn't follow any particular game. While I use concepts, bosses, and other elements from the games, what I write will be "non-canon." As for geography, the map in my head is roughly based off of the one found in Twilight Princess. I see this as one of the games, with clean CGI scenes. I strive to describe every detail necessary, but sometimes my descriptions are lacking, or I don't know what to say when. If you ever feel that you are taken out of the story, for poor descriptions or not, please let me know. I'm ready to start working on the second draft, and the constructive criticism will help me with my professional works. For more info, see the end of the last part. Thanks!

The legend of the hero, Link, the Goddess reborn, Zelda, and evil reincarnate, Ganon has been ingrained in the history of Hyrule from its very inception. Link, a young boy clad in green, is always destined to vanquish evil and save Hyrule, however, what if Link was betrayed by those he called allies? Before Hyrule prospered, before Skyloft was created, a hero lived in the land of Hylia, and though his deeds earned him legendary status amongst the peoples of Hylia, there were those who resented the hero. Framed for a crime he did not commit, the young man was cast in chains, forever to be locked away. That is, until the traitor's plot was uncovered. However, years had passed as the hero rotted away in a murky cellar. Could he truly forgive the people their sins? Could he accept their offer to save them once more from the encroaching armies of darkness? Could he take on that mantle once more and be the hero he had forged himself as? Or would he leave them to burn...?
