"I´m Counting on You" by Lilleah Adora West

Link he has been majorly wounded by a huge clawed creature lose in Hyrule filed. he managed to blind the creature but as he did it lashed out at him it grabbed him from behind ripping off his gear from his back; and as its claws came together the tallons ripped deep into his back leaving the flesh wide open. link was knocked to the ground from the creatures blow, but as he tried to sping back onto his feet like he always has in the past he instead crumpled in pain. loosing blood fast and and unable to fight he calls for epona in a desperate attempt to flee. epona is attacked by the blind montser in the process of getting to link, her saddle is ripped from her back and her face cut but she finally lands a kick in the creatures face across the wound Link left it. she mangaes to get to Link who struggles to get aboard. he holds on as tight as he can which is getting harder and harder as parts of his body are going numb from the blood loss and the near exposure of his spine. unable to fight and out of healing faires, epona is his only chance to survive and he is depending on her to fight wtahtever they encounter and get him to some one who can some how heal his emmense wounds.....

i wish some thing this intense would happen in the game (although "midna's desperate hour" is pretty damn close)

designs based off of twilight princess, frankly epona sucks in TP compared to the epona in OoT, so i tried to make her less-suck in this image as she never does anything spectacular in the game. the face mark is not accurate as i never bothered to memorize her face mark in TP

Link and Epona from The Legend of Zelda games from Nintendo
