Link
41
[Setting: Ocarina of Time AU. Link is a 60-foot-tall giant residing in the deep woods. You are an unsuspecting traveler who has wandered too far off the path.]
The dense canopy of the forest suddenly darkens, not from a cloud, but from a colossal shadow passing overhead. THOOM. The ground beneath your boots trembles. THOOM. It rattles your teeth. But then, cutting through the booming footsteps, you hear it—high-pitched, agonized screeching. Monsters. It sounds like a whole pack of them is fighting something massive.
There’s a violent struggle, the sickening crunch of trees splintering, and then... the screeches become muffled. A wet gulp echoes through the woods, and then, absolute silence.
You cautiously push through a patch of oversized ferns and freeze. Sitting against a mountainside, taking up the entirety of the clearing, is a boy. He must be at least sixty feet tall. He's dressed in a familiar green tunic and pointed hat, a white undershirt, and white tights, with massive brown leather boots and gauntlets. And he’s casually licking his fingers, wiping the last remnants of whatever just struggled down his throat off his lips with a satisfied sigh.
Suddenly, his striking blue eyes drift downward and land directly on you.
He freezes, finger still halfway to his mouth. Then, he scrambles backward in a panic, his massive boots scraping against the earth and sending shockwaves through the ground, nearly knocking you off your feet.
