Hang on. Ran out of letter. Follow up from never been in a helicopter crash anon (I hope your other anons haven't either tbh) - I just realised your wording on Sky. The getting shot down is /before/ he got transferred as it says the unspecified times were after. Which. Time and Warriors are /not/ going to have had a good day hearing about that. Whether he tells them later, or they heard because he was supposed to be bringing them a patient when it happened. Oh dear... I want to hug everyone.

Sky gritted his teeth as they flew. This area was under particularly heavy fire. Their mission report had indicated the coordinates were in the middle of a hot zone and soldiers were desperately trying to get the situation under control so they could get in, get the patients, and get out.

Command had advised they wait, but Sky knew that usually meant at least one soldier would be dead by the time they got the all clear signal to even take off. He didn't necessarily disobey orders, he just... took them into consideration.

Sun and Groose didn't argue the point.

"The rendezvous point is ten miles ahead," Sun noted as she grabbed the radio to start communicating with the ground forces.

Sky adjusted the collective, lowering the lever to his left a little so the helicopter started to descend as they made their approach. They'd be there in a few minutes.

"Command says the LZ is clear," Sun advised.

Sky smiled. "Good. I figured they'd get it under control by the time we got here."

Groose laughed from behind them. "They'd better! It's only been twenty minutes since they first called in for evac!"

The helicopter started to descend, and Groose told their medic team to prepare for landing.

And then the helicopter lurched, sending Sky and Sun into their harnesses and knocking the wind out of them. Sky immediately felt the helicopter start swerving as if torque were twirling it like a spinning top. He tried to adjust with the foot pedals, telling the chopper to adjust its tail rotor to compensate.

The helicopter barely responded.

"What the hell was that?!" Groose yelled from the back.

Sun was frantically looking at the consoles as they alarmed. "Sky, the tail rotor got damaged! We've been hit!"

Sky felt the bottom drop out of his stomach. "Strap in! Now!"

He heard Groose and their medical crew scurry back to their seats after they had started setting up for the drop. Items were hastily strapped down. He reacted on instinct, trying to continue adjusting the pedals as he steadily lowered the helicopter to the ground. There was no way they were staying airborne with a busted tail rotor - that rotor was responsible for preventing them from spinning uncontrollably. It was going to be a miracle if they could get to the ground in one piece.

We're going to crash.

Sky looked briefly at Sun to see her watching him with fear. He wanted so desperately to reach out to her, but he had his hands full. Her terror did something else to him as well; he felt resolve burn through his veins, and he gripped the cyclic desperately with both hands.

They were not dying today.

"Take over with the collective and get us down slowly," he ordered.

Sun pressed a button and took control of the device that determined their altitude while Sky fought desperately with the steering device in front of him. With no tail rotor to stabilize them, the helicopter started spinning at a dizzyingly high speed. G-forces shoved him and everyone else to the side, making it even more difficult to try and steady the aircraft. The horizon dipped up and down repeatedly, scenery blurring in a nauseating frenzy, and Sky started to see specks in his vision.

He was about to pass out. Sun was already unconscious from the g-forces.

Grabbing the throttle, he revved down the engine; if it wasn't running then they weren't spinning.

Of course that also meant they weren't flying, either.

Groose screamed as the helicopter went into a near free-fall.

Sky's stomach was up in his throat as his shoulders slammed into his harness, preventing him from flying out of his seat. He watched their altitude decrease on the sensor before cranking the engine back up to full throttle and shoving one of his feet into the pedals all the way to the floor. He had to have some kind of tail rotor still functioning, and he was going to need it.

The helicopter roared to life once more, the cyclic fighting him as they jerked this way and that, and then the entire world jolted as they slammed into the ground on their landing gear.

Sky leaned heavily in his seat, sighing in relief, his entire body trembling. Then his situation slammed into him and he immediately unbuckled, shaking his copilot. "Sun. Sun!"

His friend groaned, slowly coming to, and he unbuckled her harness, pulling her into his arms and dragging her away from the exposed cockpit as gunfire blazed all around them. Groose and the medics were already arming themselves, preparing for the worst.

"Groose, you alright?" Sky asked as he carried Sun into the fuselage.

"Right as rain and ready to kick some ass!" Groose yelled, loading his gun.

Sun coughed and her eyes fluttered open. "Sky?"

Sky immediately turned his attention to her, lowering her to the ground. "Are you okay?"

Taking a deep breath, his friend rubbed her face and then gently pushed herself out of his hold. "Yeah. Just the g-forces. Everyone good? Did we land?"

"If by land, you mean rattled every single bone in my body, then yeah," Groose remarked. "Sky needs to go back to school and learn how to land properly."

Sky rolled his eyes good naturedly. "Right. I need to figure out how far from the LZ we--"

Gunshots tore through the fuselage, ricocheting and hitting one of the medics in the shoulder. He cried out, dropping, and everyone immediately crouched. Groose opened the door, gun at the ready, and Sky armed himself as well.

"Get on the radio and tell them we're pinned down!" Sky shouted as Sun headed to the cockpit to do just that.

Dust blew into the fuselage, making everyone cough and duck down as visibility immediately decreased. Groose fired blindly into the mess to keep the enemy from trying to attack them while they were incapacitated.

"We're a medical helicopter you assholes!" Groose yelled. "Don't you people know this is a war crime?!"

The gunfire that tore through the helicopter begged to differ.

"Shit!" Groose hissed as he took cover beside Sky.

Then, out of nowhere, Sun bolted out of the cockpit and tossed something into the area outside. She slammed the fuselage door closed and the entire helicopter rocked with an explosion.

"Holy shit, Sun!" Groose laughed as he peeked over their cover. "Why the hell do you have grenades?!"

"We knew were going into a hot zone," Sun replied.

"Well we can't stay here," Sky remarked as he watched one of their medics grimace as another tended to his injury.

"I called for help," Sun said, grabbing her own gun. "Pipit and Karane are on their way."

Sky felt a little relieved hearing that. They flew the fully armored Black Loftwings - shooting them down was not going to be an easy feat.

Sky was still processing the fact that he'd been shot down. Who fires on a medical helicopter?!

His arm stung a little bit, and he scratched it a moment before more gunfire pelted the area. He grabbed Sun and shoved her out of the way.

Then the sound of gunfire seemed to double, and there was yelling. The door to the helicopter opened, and everyone inside immediately raised their weapons.

A tan woman with red hair entered, wearing an ally uniform. "Relax, I'm here to help."

Sky let out a sigh of relief.

"Mipha!" the woman called outside. "We have wounded, get in here!"

"Coming, Urbosa!"

Sky headed for the radio to get an ETA for their evac while the soldiers entered the helicopter. He finally felt like he could breathe again.

They were going to get out of this one in one piece.

Absolutely bonkers idea: even most of the animals in Gerudo Town are female but Shade gets a pass even when Wild doesn’t cause Urbosa just gets the feeling that he should be able to pass in freely (Time was straight up adopted into the Gerudo)

Wolfie also has a similar pass since I definitely saw reference to Gerudo!Twi in Zvevda (?)

~🌙

Yeah, Urbosa probably knows exactly who they are because of the history books, and she totally let them in and the Gerudo people just treat them with utmost respect :)

[science-lings]

these are kinda obvious choices, but mipha and hyrule bonding over being healers and how stupid injured team members can sometimes be? and also i NEED wind and urbosa interaction

oh totally, Mipha and Hyrule bond because of their similar personalities, because I'm absolutely positive that if provoked, Mipha has some sass being held back by her princessy exterior.

Also Urbosa sees a group of short stressed blonde gremlins and claims them as her own, she's already done it twice, what's eight more times. But yeah, she would definitely vibe with Wind a lot. What can she say, she was descended from a tribe of thieves of course she would love a little pirate.

My favorite LU side characters in order:

Linkle(I’m biased), Malon (10/10 best person), Mipha(Still Biased), Ravio (We can just assumed I’m still biased), Maron (Biased), Skull Kids (no longer biased. These guys are just great), the Frog, Sun, Urbosa, Epona 2, Flora, Nabooru, Lullaby, Fairies, The Owl that is Kaepora Gaebora, Groose, Revali, Random Minish, Epona 1, Daruk, Random Dog, Random Healer townsfolk, randoms townsfolk without dialog, random townsfolk with dialog, Octorock, Linebeck, Postman…I guess, Ganondorf, Radom knights in flashback, Yiga Foot Soldiers, Egg Robot from HW:AoC, and Tingle. Did I do all of this to roast Tingle? Maybe. Or maybe I wanted to raise up Linkle as the best. You’ll never know. I left out anyone who was mentioned in the comic, but yet to be drawn.

Wait, you said that shade was probably Urbosa’s great great something grandfather. If that’s true, then wouldn’t that mean wars ans Sablya got back together and had another child? And he or she became the heir to the gerudo throne? That would mean that wild is like, Urbosa’s uncle or something ( I don’t know how genetics works)

Yes, but no

See, Shade and Twilight are both ancestors of the Gerudo royal family (Twi being the only male part-Gerudo in his time and all) but Twilight has many daughters. So while yes, in TTTB, one of them did marry Hyrule's kid and have Sablya, there are several others who went on to go and have their own families. His eldest daughter probably became the chief after him, so Urbosa would be descended from her, not Warriors and Sablya.

(Although the idea of Warriors finding out he's the father to the next line of Gerudo rulers would have been HILARIOUS!)

So, I guess Urbosa would be more like Wild's cousin?

What does shade think of the champions? And what do the champions think of shade?

Shade has quite a wide variety of opinions about the Champions.

He really likes Daruk, who wouldn't? The big guy is friendly and caring and very genuine and encouraging. Wild both loved and felt safe with the Gorons, and while Shade already liked them as people, that just made him like the big Chief even more. His Cub is happy, so he is too. Personally, he didn't care so much for hanging around Daruk, but mostly because he didn't like being petted by a hand that knocked him off his paws by accident more often than not.

He likes Mipha, she was kind to Wild since he came to their time. Shade didn't really support a romance between them, partly because he knew she would die and also for other reasons, but he was glad Wild had a friend and supporter when he needed it. He was extra thankful when he found out about the healing, because good heavens does his Cub need that Personally, he didn't spend time with her, she was a bit wary of him even after Wild assured her he was safe. They do share a Look though whenever Wild does something reckless, so they have a mutual understanding.

With Revali, all Shade can think about at first is how much the bird reminds him of Legend when he's being cocky, or Warriors when he was trying to draw attention and act haughty or something. As he got to know him, he did become a bit frustrated with Revali's attitude, but at the same time, he is reminded of the boys, so... Personally, Revali did not like Shade, he thought it showed a sign of weakness that the hero needed a wolf to trail after him and protect him. This of course meant that Revali did not spend time with Shade, so Shade didn't get much of a better impression of him.

As for Urbosa, Shade really liked Urbosa. She's sort of the only adult who acts like an adult, and she was the one looking out for the younger Champions, as well as Zelda, which he really respected her for. Besides that, she and he had a lot in common: leaders, dry humor, height (when he was hylian) liked messing with their kids, all the fun stuff. They got along well too, not so much in a talking way, but more interaction wise. She respected him and he her, and they were good to just chill together. In a way, he considered her a friend (even though he could have been her great-something-grandfather).
