Hello again my lovely readers! Here is another fanfic idea that i hope will go well. Now before you go asking why I am not in school it is because i am on vacation. It took me a while to type this up, it had been cooped in my brain waiting to become a fanfic. Without further ado, back to the story! Thanks! Continue to read and review! Sorry for the late posting on my other fanfics, school got in the way.

DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN KID ICARUS UPRISING OR LEGEND OF ZELDA
The grasses waved wildly in the fields of Hyrule as thunder roared and rain poured from the heavens. His cloak whipped about him fiercely as the wind blew past his pointed ears.
Just a couple paces away lightening struck, a loud clap of thunder crackling through the air. The rider whipped his steed's reigns, urging her to keep moving. If the storm continued like this, not only would they be drenched, but there would be a chance of them losing their way in the darkness.
Even though the rider had ridden through the fields more times than he could count, danger lurked in the shadows waiting to strike, like a snake in the grass. Hooves continued to thunder upon the ground as the rider raced to the doors of Castle Town.
Lightening flashed once more and the rider halted as a sudden thud rang in his ears. His horse, ears perked as well, listened to her master's demand. The rider's keen eyes searched the area as he knocked an arrow to his bowstring.
A figure, or whatever it was, lay unconscious on the ground, no sign of movement whatsoever. Lightening flashed again, revealing the figure to be a couple paces away from the rider.
The rider's steed neighed in warning and stomped her hooves. Her rider hushed her and neared her towards it, barley touching the creature.
The rider dismounted, pulling out his lantern from his bag that was thankfully not drenched. He quickly struck a piece of flint against the steel and closed the compartment. The glow of the warm fire lit up the creature's face revealing the figure of a boy.
He had brown hair, matted with blood and a laurel crown to hold it in place. His garb was a toga decorated with red and gold seams, stained and tattered, but by what the Hylian knew not. He wore sandals upon his feet, gold cuffs around his limbs, gauntlet like armour upon his arms.
He held tightly, what appeared to the Hylian, a double sided sword in the shape of a bow, gold and azure. Then something caught the rider by suprise. Protruding from his back were feathered wings that draped underneath him, probably cushioning his fall.
The Hylain was relieved to find a pulse. He reached out, fingers tracing the angel's dampened wings. The boy yelped in pain, wing flinching. So, as the Hylain guessed, the wings were badly damaged, but they were real all right.
A gash upon the angel's head was what concerned the Hylain. It was deep, mingled with rain, and already a bruise was forming. The second thing that worried him was the blood covering the angel's wings and his toga.
The Hylian, not wanting to risk injuries, reached for his bottle where a red liquid sloshed inside. He propped the angel's head in his lap, letting the liquid pass between his lips. The angel coughed, wincing at the action.
Now, the Hylain slid two arms under the angel, careful to not harm him in any way. He groaned painfully, clasping the Hylain's green garb with an iron grip. Sky blue eyes fluttered open meeting with the Hylain's, then his gaze fell, becoming limp in the rider's arms.
The rider's heart fluttered for a moment, fearing the boy had stopped breathing, but to his relief the angel's heart thudded against the Hylian's chest.
He's still alive. The rider thought to himself with a sigh. But not for much longer...
The rider turned back to his steed who stood, watching the two. She was drenched in rain, dripping off her muscular body. He mounted the fallen angel upon the horse first, then himself. The Hylain put one arm around the boy to make sure he did not fall out of the saddle.
"Change of corse." he said through the roaring rain. "To Kakariko."
The horse tossed her head, shaking off the water, then she raced towards Kakariko with a "Hyaa!" of her master and a whip of the reigns.
Nothing came towards the three, and nothing tried to throw off the rider's course. Pretty soon a gateway appeared after they had crossed The Bridge Of Eldin. The hard wood was scratched from years of evil creatures threatening to destroy the village, a large sign hanging crookedly above.
The rider whipped his horse's reigns once again, signaling her to leap over the broken fence. With a mighty push of her hooves she landed quickly on ground again, not even a scratch on her stomach.
The sound of the wind through the cavern echoed throughout the mountains along with hoofbeats. The rider whipped his horse's reigns once more.
The light and warmth of torches, spitting due to the rain, lifted their spirits. The sound of trickling water filled the air as the three came upon the spirit's spring, a sacred location with healing waters. The Hylian tapped his chocolate horse's sides with his heels, signaling her to come to a stop.
Epona halted, heels digging into the muddy ground. She neighed loudly, tossing her white main in the air. Her rider dismounted, carrying the angel with him. The spirit's spring glew with the light of Eldin, a spirit in the form of a great owl.
The angel's blue eyes fluttered open again and he groaned in pain, not realising the Hylian carrying him. "Be still."
The angel jumped a bit in alarm and winced in pain, clutching at his back. Blood stained his hands as his head drooped slightly. "Lady...Palu-"
"Calm down. I will not harm you, relax. You are safe for now."
"Who are you?"
"Link." the Hylain responded quickly, kneeling down in the spring. "I would like to hear your details later."
"Pit." the angel replied, hissing in pain as the water splashed his wings. There was a pause then the Hylain heard the ragged breathing coming from, what was his name? Pit? Yeah, that was it.
Link set the angel in the water, supporting his head with his arm. The blood began to wash away from his fingers and Pit's wounds. The rain had stopped momentarily, allowing some time for the two to relax. The angel's breath had become slower and more shallow, the Hylian noticed, not a good sign.
Link's pointed ears caught the sound of a door opening as well as Epona's neigh of greeting and he turned around to find Renado, the Shaman of the village. He held a lantern in his hand, face sparkling in the firelight.
"Renado!" Link almost yelled, jerking Pit awake. The angel yelped in pain, a scream piercing the air. "Sorry."
The Shaman gave the hero a puzzling look, walking over to him. "Link, who do you have with you? A patient?"
He nodded, responding "He is severely injured. His name is Pit. I don't know where he came from, to be honest, i found him in Hyrule Field. A feeling in my heart tells me to trust him, and save his life."
Renado nodded in understanding, brown braids shaking. He came closer to Link who now stood, clutching the limp angel to his chest. Renado's eyes grew wide with surprise as he examined the fallen angel.
"Does he-"
"Have wings?" Link finished. "Yes."
"Impossible! Are you sure he isn't a demon?!" Renado asked, taking a couple paces back.
"If he was a demon, i would be dead." Link replied strongly. "He grows weaker as every second passes. I feel his heart slow as it beats in his chest. I hear his breath become more shallow by the minute. He needs our help, he is going to die!"
Renado was still shaking his head with uncertainty. Should we risk it? His head screamed. He trusted Link with his life, but now his trust was being tested.
"Bring him in."
Cliffies, Muahahaha! Hopefully I can get the next chapter up soon and not get lost in homework...it will also explain why our Angel has appeared in Hyrule! I would like a couple reviews if you please, but they are not exactly needed. If you can give me some chapter ideas, hilarious or serious (doesn't really mater) then i may consider using them and dedicating the chapter to you! Thanks for reading and reviewing! See you later readers!
