Alright, here's my revised story. I still need some names (especially for Link's wife and the Rebel Leader), but other than that it's completely ready. I shrunk it down to size 1 to prevent major scrolling issues. If you want to read it, go ahead and copy it, paste it on Word and increase its size. It also has a few game nuances I thought could be integrated into the plot.

 Plot overview: The game would begin in Link’s house, a little way out of Hyrule Castle Town. He would be dressed in the Knight’s Armor, as was the tradition on a knight’s wedding day. On his walk into town with his best man, they discuss the possibility of a rebel outbreak, as there were grumblings about the king’s rule. The accusations themselves were sometimes absurd, but the King also wasn’t doing the best he could to pacify them. But this talk is forgotten upon arriving.

 Immediately after being proclaimed “Husband and Wife” in the Temple of Time, a revolt begins outside and rebels start attacking. Upon escaping to the rendezvous point, it is obvious that the Queen and King are missing. Impa, the young trainee bodyguard, arrives and gives a layout of the situation.

 The rebels wanted to get the Triforce to wish the King to be fairer in judgment. After the revolt, however, Impa discovered that the Rebel Leader merely wanted the Triforce for himself to rule Hyrule. To ensure that he would obtain it, he captured the Royal Family and slew all the Sheikah (except Impa, who escaped).

 After a reconnaissance mission, Link decides to go in to rescue queen Zelda. He gets out with her, and luckily she and her unborn baby are unhurt. Link begins the attempt to save the king, but security is much higher than it was, and the Leader gets some witches to bolster his army with an assortment of beasts and monsters (one of which becomes the dungeon boss). Upon rescuing the king, he tells Link to retrieve the Master Sword from the Temple of Time.

 Originally, this was the only barrier between the people and the legendary Triforce. Furthermore, the king was usually the only one worthy to (or only one who could) pull it. Nevertheless, Link goes to take it (after traversing a dungeon), and sure enough, the Rebel Leader is waiting to snatch the Triforce… but it never appears.

 After escaping, the king explains his plan in greater detail. Worried that a revolt would occur, he touched the Triforce and wished that it be hidden in a place only he could find it. Now, knowing how selfish it was, he realized the error in his ways and regretted using it the way he did. He realized the need to protect it from not only himself, but others who might be selfish enough to follow in his footsteps.

 Instead of acting immediately, the king suggests that they wait around a few months, so that the intense search parties for them will be a lot thinner, along with the war between the Hylian people; more people rallied for the King, but the rebels now had a large army of monsters (like Wolfos, Stalfos, ReDeads and the like).

 Several months later…

 Link is about to be a father, and the King already is; they named the baby girl Zelda as was the tradition to name the firstborn girl.

 Now the king decides it is the time to act. He instructs Link to acquire three important items: precious stones imbibed with pure courage, pure strength, and pure wisdom. With these and the royal family’s special treasure (the Ocarina of Time), he could create two extra lines of defense for the Triforce. Link acquires the Essence of Strength, Wisdom, and Courage, which is then transferred into three jewels which would be entrusted to the Forest folk (Kokiri), the Gorons, and the Zoras.

 Meanwhile, the Leader discovered that there is a prophet who aided the King in his decisions. He consults him/her to find out if his coup will end up being successful, and that’s when he/she reveals that he will be “defeated by the wielder of the Master Sword.” At that moment, the rebels discover the hiding place of the King and his followers. He stages a capture attempt for the king (which fails miserably), but it’s just a cover to attempt to slay Link (and his wife).

 He chases her and Link to the entrance of “The Forest,” and they are both wounded. Miraculously, Link survives but his wife is not in sight (she enters the Kokiri Forest and has her baby which would be raised as a Kokiri until the right time. Before her life fades away, she names him Link after his father). Upon returning to the King with all the stones, the king orders him to penetrate Hyrule Castle to obtain the Ocarina of Time. After arriving, Link gets surprised.

 The leader, after celebrating his victory, had asked the prophet about the “wielder of the Master Sword” and, to his horror, discovered he was still alive. He set out by the dark of night to their location (revealed courtesy of the witches). Upon arriving, he heard the king say “Now we only need one more thing to ensure the Triforce will be safe.” He eavesdropped, and then sent his minions into Hyrule Castle ahead of Link. While he didn’t actually get the Ocarina before him (because he missed one vital piece of information), he ALMOST did.

 Link returns to the Temple of Time to replace the Triforce in its original spot, but the Leader is waiting for him. They fight for it, and Link emerges the victor. Link strikes the Master Sword back into place (which just happens to be a few inches from the Leader’s head). Queen Zelda arrives to play the Song of Time (which only the Royal Family knows), but the Leader jumps up, stabs her, claims the Ocarina of Time, and transforms into a hideous monster. Link once again battles him and strikes him dead. The King arrives, becomes horrified at his wife’s death, and in his distress teaches Link the Song of Time. He plays it, and the way to the Master Sword becomes sealed. (Gameplay ends here)

<p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-indent:.5in"> The king sends out some of his soldiers to return each of the jewels to the Kokiri, Gorons, and Zoras. The rebels, realizing the mistake they made, disbanded and returned to their homes. The monsters run to different locations around Hyrule. The queen is mourned for, and the Ocarina of Time is passed into (extremely) young Princess Zelda’s hands. One of the rebels, however, escapes to the Gerudo desert. He is confronted by a band of thieves, and is taken to their king (the only man there, in fact). The king is only about 17. He asks why he trespassed into his land, and the man tells the story of the Triforce and the recent civil war…

<p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-indent:.5in"> As for Link?... As of yet I can’t think of anything that would happen to him.

<p align="center" class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align:center"> With that the stage is set for The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time

<p align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center"> This copy is not necessarily the final one.

<p align="center" class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align:center"> Nuances in the game:

<p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-left:.5in;text-indent:-.25in;mso-list:l0level1lfo1"> 1)            The Hylian Knight tunic could be like OoT Link’s.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-left:.5in;text-indent:-.25in;mso-list:l0level1lfo1"> 2)            Link’s wife would be knitting/crocheting/sewing a hat for Link to travel with and remember her by. She completes it and gives it to Link when he goes out to retrieve the Spiritual Stones.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-left:.5in;text-indent:-.25in;mso-list:l0level1lfo1"> 3)            Certain characters seen in OoT and MM could be present in-game as younger (or in some cases alive) versions of themselves.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-left:1.0in;text-indent:-.25in;mso-list: l0level2lfo1"> a. Tingle and his father: Tingle, being 25-ish, and his father would be living in Hyrule as normal people. Upon the revolt, they would run away to “the forest.” Upon arriving, Tingle falls and hits his head, and when he wakes up he believes he is one of the Kokiri (as they are the ones who surround him as he comes to). A little while later, when Link’s wife stumbles into the village, they believe (or more correctly, the father believes) that the war has expanded to the forest and run even deeper into the wood (the Lost Woods, specifically), and come into Termina…

<p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-left:1.0in;text-indent:-.25in;mso-list: l0level2lfo1"> b. Flat and Sharp: the two ancient brothers who are the Royal Composers. They escape with the knights before Link rescues the royal family. In an attempt to survive while flying “below the radar” of the rebels, they decide to create (or discover) magical melodies to allow the King’s crops to grow easier. Through this, they create the Sun’s Song and the Song of Storms. After their deaths, they become Poes and decide to write their songs in locations where they could be learned easily. Flat wrote the Sun’s Song on their tombstone. Sharp, knowing that Guru-guru knew his song, decided to go far away and teach it elsewhere… Interestingly, Flat’s could be played by anyone, whereas Sharp’s only had effect if an ocarina played it…

<p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-left:1.0in;text-indent:-.25in;mso-list: l0level2lfo1"> c. Shop stewards: They could be the fathers and mothers of the stewards in OoT.
