I forgot the disclaimer. Whoops. Good thing I remembered to put it in. I don't own the Legend of Zelda. The only thing I own are my OC's and the plot.
Chapter 1
"Ouch…" A voice moaned pitifully. The person of said voice was currently sitting down on a table just wishing he could die. The green tunic that everyone loves was thrown into a crumbled heap next to him with his new chainmail right on top of it. He's taken a liking to wearing it. Due to the fact that he's stronger now the chainmail helps keep him safe in case he got hit in a battle….hence why he is on the table. "Can you please be careful? I'm kind of HURTING right now!" Link winced again as a new wave of pain hit him. Now he's sure that the jerk did that on purpose just to spite him. Oh, woe is me, he thought in his head.
The man healing him only shook his head exasperatedly. Honestly why did he have to deal with the boy? The boy can act so mature when a serious situation appears, however; he acts like an immature brat otherwise. Some hero he is. But he can think these sad, to him, thoughts later. For now he needs to address the young hero he's currently healing. Applying his own type of disinfectant on Link, he ignored Link's constant wincing. He's such a big baby. "You probably deserve all of this. After all, you did fight a bunch of thieves carelessly," The man's deep yet soft and quiet voice reached the young hero's ears. I can't believe that you were fighting with your eyes closed. Of course some guy is going to hit you. You should be glad that you have that under armor. Now I need to stitch your tunic back up.
Link at least had the decency to grin sheepishly at what the man said. He did get a little cocky, but he wouldn't tell Renado that. "I was trying to learn how to fight with my eyes closed. Just by hearing their movements and trying to feel where they are at. It could come in handy." Now he has the perfect excuse why.
Renado's deadpan face explained everything. It was kind of creepy. "You don't honestly expect me to believe that do you? You got cocky, didn't you?"
"Uh….no?"
"Yeah, that's what I thought. I'm honestly kind of afraid to let you leave to go back to your village. What, with all the monsters on the way. You STILL haven't done anything about that. I can't wait for it to get fixed by the way."
Link rolled his eyes at the not so subtle push to do one of the ongoing missions that Zelda gave him. Zelda asked Link to take out all the monsters that stick around in Hyrule field. Turns out that mission isn't as easy as he thought. Luckily he didn't have to find them all in one day. "Yeah, yeah I know Renado. I've kind of had other stuff on my mind." Link then gave out a little hiss. Darn you Renado! Although he'd never say that out loud, he'd probably just make the pain that much worse. "Plus do you know how difficult it is for me to find their….nest? It's impossible! It's like the finding a needle in a twenty-foot haystack! OUCH!"
Renado rolled his eyes, then replied with a tired voice, "Stop squirming, unless…" Renado then looked at Link wearily, "unless you like to feel pain."
"Heck no! What the heck makes you think that?" Then Link took a deep breath in. He had to relax himself and not fly off the handle at Renado, despite how much he wanted TAKE HIS SWORD AND HIT HIM IN THE HEAD OVER AND OVER WITH THE HANDEL, he will restrain himself. After all, he is the legendary hero of awesomeness. He will prove that he can be mature!
Poor, poor delusional kid.
Renado became curious when he noticed Link shaking with a beet red face. Was that anger? Or was he trying to hold back his pain? Eh, whatever. He's almost done wrapping Link's wound with bandages. About time he got to this point. Tada! He's FINALLY done fixing up Link, and by the look of relief on Link's face he's excited too.
Renado then cleared his throat, hoping to get Link's attention. It's time that he gives Link the run down on his situation. "As you know you have a long cut along your right side. It's not deep and I already finished disinfecting it so you should be fine. Now you know that I would want you to stay here for a few nights and recover….but that's not going to happen. Is it?"
Link then grinned brightly, "Nope! Need to get back to the village. Fado is relying on me to corral the sheep and I have some appointments I need to get to with the mayor and Rusl." Then a look of terror flashed on Link's face and he said, "Oh crap! Rusl's going to kill me when he sees that I got injured again! He won't believe me when I say I was trying something out! Maybe I can convince him that that one of the thieves got a lucky shot with his arrow from far away! Wind carried it just right and it went into my side. That's it! He'll believe me then!"
Renado really could not believe what he was seeing….and hearing. He remembered the first time he saw the boy. After the Realm of Twilight was banished over the province and those monsters disappeared, the children from the Ordon village rushed quickly to his side. Link welcomed them with open arms and a huge affectionate grin. That's when Renado knew that this young man was to be great. Renado gave a huge smile, which is rare from the reserved man, when he learned that Link saved what was left of their dying village from the eruptions from the evil in Death Valley.
When he noticed that Link finished his "discussion" with himself he decided that it's time to finish what he was saying to Link. "Now since I know that you would sneak off in the middle of the night, if we forced you to stay here, while the three of us were asleep," he ignored the sheepish look on Link's face and continued, "so when you leave I want you to be extra careful. If you run into any of the creatures then you should just have Epona go as fast she can. Ok? Avoid the main roads."
"Don't worry I will. You may not have noticed but I have been able to handle myself when I got injured when I was with Midna." However, Link's features changed dramatically at the mention of her name. His relaxed and carefree face changed to one of complete sadness. His eyes narrowed and his forehead became covered in forced wrinkles due to the narrowing of his eyes. His mouth, which was once in a huge grin, moved into a flat line. With his gaze set on the floor he said with almost no life left in his voice, "I miss her Renado. I lived my whole life living by myself and next thing I know she's there. Always was there while we were together." Link then gave a bittersweet chuckle and said, "Couldn't even use the restroom without her making some kind of annoying comment. But now she's gone. My best friend, aside from Ilia, just up and left me. Not only that, but she also made it where I could never see her again. I can't just pop out of nowhere and visit for even an hour. Why did she have to do that?"
Sitting by Link Renado could only wish that he was graced with the Triforce of Wisdom. Because with all of his wisdom, he just didn't know what he needed to say to Link to make him see her reasoning. He then placed his hand on his shoulder. Seeing Link look up at him with a surprised face almost made him laugh. But for now he just stuck with the comforting hand as the young man was confused and saddened by this situation. "I don't know why she did it per se," he began, "but I do know that all she was wanting was to protect you and this world. By breaking that mirror there was no chance for anybody from the World of Twilight or the World of Light to stumble into the other. Peace has returned to Hyrule for now, and it is thanks to the efforts of both you and Midna, the Twilight Princess."
Link sat there contemplating the words. He didn't know what to say. Although he figured that what he said was true, Link did not want to accept Renado's words. All Link could do was give a small smile back to Renado.
The grip on Link's shoulder tightened, but not into a painful grip. It tightened like how a man will comfort another man. No one can explain how it works, but it does….it is a guy thing. "Come on. How about I have Barnes cook you up a meal before you leave, that should help you on your journey."
Link nodded his head back at Renado. Perhaps a meal would be good right about now. After all, his stomach was growling.
(Somewhere unknown)
Almost pure darkness lit the room. An unknown light from the middle of the room poorly did its job. Then out of nowhere, torches around the room lit up in sync. The room was not revealed to be circular with stone walls. The light in the middle of the room was now revealed to be small purple flames. Three figures walked into the room and sat around a circular table, where the flames are on top of. Two figures sat across from each other while the other sat across from them.
A high, creepy, manly voice spoke and interrupted the silence, "Hey, hey! How long till I get to have my fun? I've been dying to try out my new creations. He he." The figure's creepy laugh echoed quietly through the room as the other two in the room looked at him in disregard. From a distance it was easy to tell that this man was the smallest out of the three.
Finally a voice from across of him spoke. "Can we please do something about this guy to calm him down? Everything will go downhill if I hacked the guy's head off right here."
"Shut up! You know you don't hate me. After all, who was the one who enchanted your freaking sword! Hahahahahaha. What would be the point then? Don't tell me that you would actually think of something so foolish? That spell will break! Hahahahaha." The creepy, obnoxious laugh just seemed to irritate the man even further. In fact, he reached behind him for the handle sticking out of his sheath. He was ready to do some kind of damage to the creepy man.
"Even without this sword I'm still an amazingly skilled fighter. I'm actually the most talented and skilled out the three of us. I'll survive without this. So I don't have to worry about what would happen if I killed you. So shut your mouth before I actually send you down to He-"
"Calm down," a voice quickly said. His eyes were closed and he was clearly the one who was in charge out of three of them. He was the second tallest out of the three of them. However, the deep voice with the commanding tone actually made the second man pause. The second man let go of the handle and calmed down, but he still fixed his glare on the first figure who was giving off a creepy giggle. If anything it made him giggle even louder.
"Seriously where did you find this guy? I can't stand him!" He tightened his hands into his fists as the creepy man started to laugh loudly. He seems to find pleasure when people find him creepy.
"Where I found him does not matter, all that matters is if he does what he is here for. Like the rest of us we need him to contribute to his part of the plan. The plan is almost ready to be set into fruition. However, there is one thing that seems to be in the way. There is a group planning to mess with everything from the World of Twilight." The deep voice opened his eyes revealing normal eyes, except for his red irises. "While they could never defeat us we can't let their plans succeed. All I want to say is if you get any news of their whereabouts…. CRUSH THEM!" And the voice echoed loudly through the entire room startling the second man and making the insane man grin.
And as three mysterious men left the room, the torches went out allowing more darkness to take up inside the room. However, the light from the table would not go out. It stayed in the darkness, keeping a little light in the room. A symbol stayed in the darkness, an upside down Triforce with its corners being where the figures sat. The purple flames were rising from the three triangles, however; unlike earlier these flames were raging with much eagerness but somehow being contained within the design.
The time has come.
Mox malum Surgam, et mundus proicimus.
(Link's house)
Link woke from his sleep in surprise. Looking around the room he realized that it was still night time. However, his dream was unlike any that he had before. Midna was in it, but it was different than the one's he had of her. Although if you mention anything about him having a dream about her he will deny positively everything, it's fun to watch. Back to the topic at hand; she was warning him. While it confused him, he knew that he needed to talk to Zelda about this mysterious development. Of course the wielder of the Triforce of Wisdom would have the answers to what he needed to know. It's going to be a pain to get there, but he must do it.
(Castle of Hyrule)
Link walked up to the guards that were guarding the doors to the throne room. The journey to where Zelda resides was in a word, LONG. It's harder to get to Hyrule then it is Kakarico Village, and because of the fact that he needed to avoid all the monsters it was much more difficult. However, he succeeded. And hopefully he would be able to get some answers to the question that he had for Zelda.
"Ah, Master Link, it's good to see you! What is the purpose of your visit here?" A guard asked eagerly. Even though they work for the queen it's funny that they get excited just to meet him. A simple Ordon resident was all really was.
Still, Link gave a smile at the guard. It's still nice to feel appreciated for all the hard work that he did. And by the way the skinny guard was looking at him with sparkles in his eyes, it was easy to tell that he was appreciated. "It's good to see you too. I'm here on serious business with queen Zelda. Would it be possible if I could speak with her?"
"Well, she's currently in her chambers. But since you're important it's safe to say that she would allow you to meet her."
"Thanks! Keep up the good work!" I hope Zelda doesn't get on to the poor guy. Even though she said he's always welcome to visit, she still doesn't like it when people interrupt her alone time. Pressure from becoming a queen of an entire nation does that to people.
Link walked in and was asked to wait a few minutes. Soon there was a servant girl walking up to him. No doubt she was the one who was sent to lead him to where Zelda was. The servant girl had a cute, round face with light blond hair that reaches down to her shoulders, however; in the middle of her head the hair was braided hair that looked like a headband. She wore a dark brown robe over herself. No doubt the queen's idea. Her blue eyes widened and her cheeks flushed at the sight of Link, then she couldn't help but look down onto the floor. Link felt a small amount of pity for the girl. She must have a very shy personality. "May you please lead me to Zelda?"
The girl slowly nodded her head and in a slow nod whispered lowly, "Please come this way."
Link walked right beside the servant as he looked around the castle. No matter how many times he saw this place it still amazed him. This is sad considering all the temples that he's gone through, plus his brief time in the World of Twilight. Noticing that the girl was fiddling her thumbs, Link, with his dense nature, figured the uncomfortable silence was making her more nervous. That's not the reason. "So what's your name? My name's Link!" Duh. "Do you like working here? It seems like it would be a pretty cool job."
The girl slowly swallowed and her face flushed again. Why was he giving her such a happy smile? Stop it! "M-my name i-i-is Minora. I-I-I do li-like working here." The girl stuttered out. The words at the end almost trailing out into a whisper. Why was he asking about a lowly girl like her?
"Minora? That's a pretty name!" He didn't notice the girl's entire face turn red at that comment. "And that's good that you like your job! In a way I enjoy my job. It's too risky at times, but it's fun to journey around!" The girl only nodded her head. She hurried her pace, confusing Link in the process. Before he knew it he was at Zelda's chambers. That didn't take too long.
Minora started knocking on the door very quietly, and Zelda opened it after a few minutes. Her eyes had a stern gaze, no doubt ready to scold whoever knocked without saying the reason, until her eyes laid on Link and Minora. "Ah, thank you Minora. You may take your leave, and, Link, you may come in."
As Minora started to leave, Link waved eagerly at Minora, "Bye! I hope to see you again sometime!" She again started to move quicker down the hallway, however; she gave a small wave over her shoulder before she turned a corner.
"Don't mind her, Link. She comes from a rather….difficult family. She's very shy becsue of it. VERY shy. She's not open with anybody here. But that's not the point right now. Tell me what's on your mind."
Now when Link's face turned serious so did Zelda's. When this young man become serious then she knew that there was something important going on. "I have a question to ask you. I had a dream last night. In this dream Midna appeared. However, there was something she said to me that stands out. She said, 'Beware, Link. There is still darkness in your world, which I can't help you with. Please be careful, Link.' You know how all of the items from the World of Twilight disappeared from this world after Midna shattered the Mirror?" At Zelda's nod he continued, "So is there anything left over? Is there still….darkness in this world of Light? I know that anything over from the World of Twilight was called darkness over here.
Zelda looked back at him with a poker face. Blank of any indication of what it is that she is thinking right now. "Well. I guess that it's time that you learned about this. There is a certain type of…. items from the Twilight world that are still stuck in this world. The reason they are still here is because they have the same energy as the Triforce within." Link gave a look of bewilderment. "Yeah, I know. I would explain everything but I believe that you would be bored. Let's just say that the two worlds were once part of ….an alliance a long time ago. However, things have changed since then, and those items were hidden a long time ago. If they are found, only one of us, those who are messengers of the Triforce, can activate their powers. But we should not. Its powers can be used for evil. And the fact I'm here in this castle means that YOU are the only one who can activate them by touching them. So DON'T!"
Link jumped away from her when she said that. He didn't expect her to yell that all of a sudden. She can be scary. He still needs to save face and clearing his throat said, "So if I find one of these items and touch it, then it would do….something? What would they do, and what could they do in the wrong hands?"
Zelda only shook her head. "I don't have any idea. Trust me I wish I knew. However, I pray that we never find out. So, Link, don't go looking for them. Ok?"
Link could only sigh. "Fine, oh, and one more thing! Wasn't it cool how I realized that the things of darkness had anything to do with the World of Twilight?" Link grinned excitedly. He loved it when he did something "smart."
Getting excited over something like that only shows the kind of action he usually takes.
Zelda laughed while shaking her head. He always seemed to have a way to amuse her. Hmm. Would he possibly be interested in becoming one of her suitors? She doesn't see any reason not to. First she needed to figure one thing out though. "How do you feel about Midna? The fact that you had a dream about her could mean something"
Link's face flushed red and he sputtered until he was able to get out, "NO! WHY WOULD YOU THINK THAT? SHE'S JUST A FRIEND! NO, A SISTER!"
Zelda sighed. There went her chance. He was certainly in denial, and by how loud he yelled he got it a lot. Still, this would give her a chance to tease him. "Well then how about me? You know that I am required to marry, and I believe that you would be perfect." Finishing it off with a wink, she noticed that his entire face flushed red. How cute. Plus this was fun. She should do this more often.
The teasing side of Zelda is very dangerous.
Once Link calmed down he leveled a glare at Zelda, who was giving him a big, innocent smile. That horrible, horrible person should be punished! However, he doesn't know what to do get her back. In the end he just decided to think on it later. "No thanks. You're pretty and all, but I have more important things to think about."
"Like Midna?"
"Yes, I MEAN NO!"
Zelda once again laughed. This was so much fun, but he probably should be given a break. Besides it was getting late and he probably wants to go home. "Did I answer all your questions?"
Link blinked confusedly at the quick change of subject, and realized that he should probably get back before it gets dark. He has a long road ahead of him. "Well, I think I would probably come up with some other stuff later, but I need to get back to Ordon. I'll get back to you when I have some more questions."
"Alright, be careful on your trip back to Ordon!"
Link only smiled and replied, "Will do!" After he left her chambers he walked through the castle with a different servant girl. This one was way more talkative than Minora. WAY more talkative. Although he waved excitedly when he saw her again, she just shyly waved back at him. Bless her heart.
(Link's house)
He returned home late at night. Everybody's going to ask about him when he goes into town in the morning. He'll just say that he forgot something and had to be gone for the whole day. No use worrying everybody.
After putting on his chainmail and his green tunic, Link was at a crossroad. Should he or should he not take his sword and shield with him? The Ordon sword and Hyrule shield were very handy to have in a fight, although Link wishes that he still had the Master Sword. Link has a gut feeling that he would need to bring them with him, but he didn't want to have to lug the two items with him. It was a fight between instincts and caution against laziness. In the end laziness one and he walked by the two of them. Walking past his door he climbed down the ladder to start his day.
After making sure Epona wouldn't run away by tying her to a post, Link walked into the village. Looking around he noticed that no one was outside on this gorgeous day. Sunny and only a few clouds in sight! Except for the small man who's always on top of that rock formation. Hatch is ALWAYS up there. What a freak. "I'm still slightly bitter for that one time when he kept on sending that stupid hawk after me when I was a wolf," Link muttered to himself. When Hatch caught site of Link he instantly widened his eyes and started waving at Link trying to get his attention. After walking over to him Link decided it would be best if he found out what the little man wanted. "What's wrong?"
Taking some heavy breaths to calm down, he's old and out of shape, he was able to finally respond to Link. "Huff huff….the mayor found something….huff huff…. something important….a few days ago."
Link eyed the man, what the heck was so important that they found? "Alright I'll head over there. Is that where everybody is?" Might as well see what the big deal is.
The man looked excited that Link understood. After nodding his head to the question, he then jumped down the rocks and took off running to the mayor's house, which is weird considering he was exhausted earlier just by jumping up and down. Link just slowly trudged behind him. Did it have something to do with what Midna said in his dream?
"Beware, Link. There is still darkness in your world, which I can't help you. Please be careful, Link."
What did that mean? The fact that this was a different type of dream compared to the others that he had of her, NOT THAT HE HAD A CRUSH ON HER, meant it was very important.
He finally arrived at the Mayor's house. Noticing that the door was creaked open he just walked in. Link can walk into any room whenever he wants, that's how it is. Upon walking in he noticed Bo, the mayor, towering over an item on his table with his back facing Link, making it so Link can't see what it was. The rest of the village were moving around and talking to each other. Link noticed that almost everyone was nervous, probably because they had no clue WHAT it is that they are looking at. Link leaned against the doorframe. Wondering how long it would take them to notice he was there. Although Ilia might know he's there, she always seems to know where he's at. And right on cue Ilia, who was across the room from him, looked his way before giving him a lovely smile. Link couldn't bring himself to be annoyed by that fact. He just gave a small smile back at her before she turned away. So he'll see how long it takes for anybody else to notice him.
Apparently not too long, as Rusl walked up to him He nudged Link in the shoulder, making Link go a little off balance. He probably didn't want to say anything to let the others know he was here. "It's a good thing that you were able to get here. Everyone's confused and I don't believe that they will be able to become relieved with this until you get a look at it." He then narrowed his eyes at Link before saying, "Where is your sword and shield? You're performing a lot of rookie mistakes lately Link. I heard from Renado what happened to your side. Eyes closed? What a load of bull."
Link could only sigh as he was scolded again by Rusl. Then again it makes him feel like he actually has a father, but that fact doesn't really make being scolded by Rusl any better. "I was trying something out! Plus I figured they wouldn't be needed. I can head back to my house and grab them if it would make you feel better. Besides this is Ordon, I don't exactly believe that we have creatures or bandits banging on our doors night and day."
"Calm before the storm Link, calm before the storm. Never feel peaceful in times of peace, my boy. That is what a fool or an untrained fighter does, that is one of the biggest rules I told the resistance when I first assembled them long before Zant took over."
Quickly looking for a change in subject found his chance and took it. "How are they doing? I haven't talked to any of them in a long time. I hope that they are doing well."
Apparently it succeeded as Rusl instantly started naming off what the resistance has been doing as of late. "Well Telma still has her bar, Shad has been exploring old temples for stuff, and the others do odd jobs around the country, like you."
Link nodded at Rusl with a smile. He was happy that they were all doing well. Just a few seconds later, Colin, Rusl's son, noticed Link while his father was saying something to Link. Just like a little kid he instantly yelled out so that Link's appearance would be known, "Hey everybody! Link's here!" Just like that. In sync they all turned towards the door and rushed to him. Except for Ilia, but she looks amused by this situation.
Rusl quickly stepped to the side before the rest of the villagers were able to the doorframe. He chuckled when he noticed Link give him a dirty look along with mouthing "traitor". Quickly Rusl pulled Colin aside and whispered into his ear, "So can you do me a favor? Run on over to Link's house and grab his sword and shield for me. If you do I'll ask your mother to make your favorite meal for dinner tonight."
Instantly Colin's eyes widened and rushed out of the door, maneuvering around the crowd of people and ignoring Link's cry for Colin to save him. Hey, when the choices are having your favorite meal or having your older brother figure from no real danger….you'll take the meal.
Link's eyes started twitching. He knows Rusl told Colin something that would make him not want to help him. Jerk. Now he needs to find a way to get out of this crowd. Too many questions being thrown out at once! He doesn't even know what's being said!
"Ok everyone! Leave him be!" A booming voice yelled from the table.
And just like that everyone calmed down. The mayor's voice echoed throughout the entire room and Link wanted to run up to him and give him the hug of his life! But by the serious look on the mayor's face, this is something serious. Plus he doesn't really want to hug the chubby guy.
"Link, can you please come here and take a look at this item? It's probably very important."
Link walked over to the table, and as he arrived his breath was taken away. The item was beautiful, but yet it was also terrifying. Link couldn't give an accurate description of what he felt right now. It looked like a mirror, although there wasn't a frame inside so all there was to it was the rim. The rim was black, and dark green vein-like designs starting from the bottom of the rims and spread all the way to the top. A paper to the side showed that they measured it. The outer dimensions were apparently twenty-one inches wide and thirty-four inches high. The area where the mirror should be was measured to be eighteen inches wide and twenty-four inches high. On one end of the mirror two tiny stands protrude diagonally from both sides across where the mirror should be. These two stands show that it was the back and it's what that keeps the mirror standing on the table.
Link was confused. He could feel something coming from it. What was it? It was something familiar though, definitely some sort of power if his past experiences mean anything. How could such an ordinary item have such a strong feel to it? He could feel Triforce mark on the back of his hand glowing. He looked down and noticed that it indeed was glowing. Curious he reached over and touched the item. His touch was nothing more than just a light touch, but that seemed like it was enough for what happened next. Instantly, the vein-like designs started to glow brightly. The once dark green color is now a bright green that won't stop shining.
"Link…" He heard a voice whisper around in the air. Was that Midna? "Why?" Was that disappointment that he could hear in that voice? It's kind of difficult to tell; the voice was so quiet that he couldn't pick up the emotion behind it.
"Link, are you alright?" And the mayor's voice cut him out of his small trance. How long was he zoned out? Hopefully it was only a few seconds. He noticed that the mirror stopped glowing and everyone was looking at him in concern maybe a little bit of nervousness. "You kind of dozed off on us my boy. Don't scare us like that!" The mayor than gave a hearty laugh, but Link could tell it was fake or at least strained. He had to save face in front of the villagers after all.
Link learned a lot on his big journey but one of the most important things he learned was reading other people's body language and their speech fluctuations. While he will admit that he's not a master, he will gladly say that he has a good amount of skill in it. He learned a bit from Rusl. After Link saved Hyrul, Rusl took to teaching Link a bunch of skills and tricks. Rusl knew that Link was already a better fighter than he was based off of raw talent and a little battlefield experience, so he figured that with some training and new skills he would become a more fearsome fighter, which he did become.
Link could tell that Bo is straining his laugh. Can't let the populace panic, for it would be destructive. A person is intelligent but people are stupid. If a few freak out then others would. Link's the hero, wielder of the Triforce of Courage, and, according to a fan-girl club in Castle town, the coolest guy alive. If he showed any kind of weakness, even to those who he knew the most, then they would not know what to do. The result would be more catastrophic in the end. Putting on a stupid grin Link replied, "Yeah, I'm fine. I was just….admiring it and I kinda stopped focusing on anything else he he." They didn't really need to know what he heard. Or the stuff that he knows about this. Frankly he's worried himself.
For some reason he feels like someone wants to beat the crap out of him. Why's that?
(World of Twilight)
"THAT STUPID, STUPID PIG FOR BRAIN. THAT MONKEY-HEADED BAMBOON!"
Midna's maid ran out of the door at the speed of light, or twilight I guess. She's throwing chairs and everything! It's scary when she's like this! Plus her insults never make sense when she's worked up. This happens a lot since she likes to insult people. She commits the Ad Hominem fallacy a lot.
Take Introduction to Logic, you'll understand then.
"I told him to be careful! It was hard enough just letting him get that warning. But noooooo. He had to be the idiot he is and activate the stupid artifact! If I see him again I'm gonna sock him into a coma!"
(Bo's house)
Link then let out a shudder, for some reason he feels like he should just crawl under a rock and hide.
But now's not the time to worry about this random irrational fear, actually it is perfectly rational, and focus on this item. He looked at the item on the table with a thoughtful look. There's no way this is something from this world. Its colors are a dead giveaway, however; that's not the only thing. He remembers what Zelda told him earlier, well, just the important parts she said.
"There are items from the Twilight world that are still stuck in this world. The reason they are still here is because they have the same energy as the Triforce within…. Only one of us, those who are messengers of the Triforce, can activate its powers. But we should not. Their powers can be used for evil. And the fact I'm here in this castle means that YOU are the only one who can activate them by touching them. So DON'T!"
Whoops.
(Zelda's throne room)
Zelda, wielder of the Triforce of Wisdom, queen of Hyrule felt the energy give off from the artifact. Because of it, she did the most appropriate action when stupidity is involved.
In other words, she face palmed.
(Back to Bo's house….)
Now Link just wanted to crawl under a rock and DIE. The two separate killing intents he could feel from far away, VERY far away in Midna's case, made him feel that a slow death would be better than what he would get. Hey he did deserve it though.
Back to the matter at hand, hopefully it will stay on this, this is serious business. He activated it and now he will need to keep it safe from anybody that wishes to take it. People are that desperate for power after all.
"Where did you find this?" Link asked the mayor. This is a good question. Using his logic, emphasis on his, the harder anything is to find the more dangerous or important it is. If they just dug it up from the ground then it wouldn't be such a big deal, on the other hand-
"Ho ho, you wouldn't believe how difficult it was to find it!" CRAP. "I think we broke three shovels, used ten of your bombs-," Wait….MY bombs? "-and it was inside a treasure chest but we found the key randomly on the ground. Lucky right?" The mayor's voice became very proud now, "We now have our own special attraction! We can sell it, or we can charge people to come and see it! We're all going to become rich!"
Now Link wanted to face palm, which is sad because he has made countless of others do this action. First of all, HE is the main attraction of Ordon. Hello! If there was a sign for him it would say "Guy who saved the world here! Guy who saves all of your worthless butts by beating monsters lives in this town! What are they going to put on the sign for this thing? "Weird artifact recently discovered glows!" He's way cooler than some weird glowing thingy.
Keep telling yourself that champ.
Second of all, the thing is dangerous and shouldn't be sold to a wicked person with a lot of money or shown to the public where anybody can up and take it. He needs convince the mayor to let him have it. It needs to be thrown into the bottom of the lake! "Um, Mayor, how about I take it? You wouldn't want somebody to steal….Ordon's greatest attraction now do you?"
It seemed to have worked as the Mayor put his hand to his chin with a thoughtful expression on his face. "Hmm. I don't know if that is a good idea….Alright, fine. You can keep it for now until we get everything set up for it."
Everybody in the house cheered! Well, except for Ilia. Where was she anyway? Suddenly, he became aware of someone standing beside him. Ah, there she is. "How are you doing today? Sorry I didn't get to talk to you when I came in, but I didn't want everybody to get over excited. Sadly, they did." Link then gave a sigh of mock-sadness.
The smile she graced him with was so beautiful that he couldn't help but turn his head away. Only issue with being a respectful male, you turn to goo at the sight of a pretty girl. "I'm doing fine, Link. And it's alright; I found it kind of funny." She giggled slightly at his look. "Are you doing well?" At his nod she continued, "I'm glad. Things are kind of different now. More slow, boring I guess. I wish it was more exciting here. Although I guess that's something I should be more careful with what I wish for right?"
Link smiled back at her. "Well, if you would like you could come with me on my next mission. You'd have to ask your dad though, but I don't think he would like that though."
"Or I could sneak off with you! Remember when we were children and we would sneak off into the woods together?" Ilia then started giggling before continuing, "I remember how you would always be afraid to explore, after all, Rusl would be the one to punish you, and you weren't as fortunate with punishments from Rusl as Colin is."
"Yeah, yeah. I know." Link shuddered; he remembered Rusl's punishment methods. "But aside from that they were fun times! Hopefully we would be able to have another chance to do something like that again." Well it would be fun. Then again he did explore the entire forest looking for that fused shadow.
Before they could continue talking a scream was then heard from outside. Instantly Link's eyes widened. It sounded like a little boy screaming. Link realized that Colin was the only one who left the house, and by the terror on Rusl's face, he realized that too. Quickly the two of them pushed everybody out of the way and ran out the door. With Link in front of Rusl what they noticed immediately surprised them.
Seven people, all on black horses stood in front of the house a good fifteen feet away. They were standing in the V formation with the one in front standing closest to the house. The robes stuck closely to their form and it was easy to tell that there were five men and two women. Their robes were black with a red swirling circle around a black middle, and protruding from the swirl were red lines that expanded in different directions and making squares randomly. It reminded him of the twilight portals when he defeated those shadow beasts in wolf form. The six behind the supposed leader had their hoods covering part of their face where a shadow covers the rest, probably because they have their heads down. The leader's hood, however; was down so his face was in full view. A light grey face with black eyebrows and a lean face faced at them. He was a man no doubt and his eyes were completely normal except for his irises, which were purple. His hair was black and slicked back, with it reaching down past his neck. Above is left eyebrow was a weird symbol, two green circles which were circling a green X. What Link cared about the most was the fact he was holding Colin over his left shoulder, Colin's face facing him and Rusl. His eyes were closed and he was unmoving, it is logical that he's unconscious.
The leader who was a big burly man gave a small smile when he saw them walking out of the house, along with the rest inside the house Although the smile seemed different, one could surely notice the bloodthirsty feel to it. "Well hello. This wouldn't happen to be your boy would it? Tis a shame if something should happen to him. There he was, just minding his own business when we appeared." He then moved his weird eyes over at Colin and continued, "He was such a brave boy, and he even tried to attack us. Foolish, but brave nonetheless. What a waste if I were to, oh I don't know, take one of my knives out and slice that little head off. What would happen then?" His smile then turned to a dark grin.
"Stop!" Rusl yelled out as loudly as he can. "Put him down! Don't hurt him!" Uli, Rusl's wife, was pretty close to bawling her eyes out. "He's my son, why would you even suggest something like that?! He's done nothing to you! Stop!" Rusl seemed like his head was about to explode it was so red.
Nonchalantly flapping his free hand back and forth with a bored look on his face the leader replied, "Nothing personal, it's just a hostage situation. We would like to make a trade, would that be acceptable? Or will I have to show my seriousness over the matter?" After saying this, his right arm was raised and a knife slipped out from the robe. He then grinned as he pointed the knife at Colin. "You have something we want, and we have something you want. Give it to us and we will let you have your boy back unharmed. I promise."
"What is it you want?" Link asked. Although Link had a sinking feeling to what it is that they wanted, he had to make sure. A small chance still could work for him. He had to take a chance. Dang now he wished that he took his weapons with him. This could all have been avoided.
"The mirror, that's what we want. Although it's difficult to tell that it's a mirror since it isn't complete. However, you," he looked over at Link, "activated its power, which we used as a tracking beacon. That's how we found you. How we got here so quickly, well that's a secret for now. I'm sure that you'll find out how pretty soon." The evil, insane grin just would not leave that unusual face. "Link, bring the mirror and place it outside the door. NOW!" His face changed from the insane grin to one of complete anger.
Link didn't want to have to follow the man's instructions. If anything he would rather just break the mirror into different parts and throw in different parts of the world. But it is a hostage situation and they have the hostage. Walking inside he picked it up and the mirror glowed again, however; his Triforce symbol on his hand didn't glow with it. This was indeed strange. For now, though, he needed to get it back outside. Poor Uli is crying her eyes out and Rusl seems ready to go on a rampage against the strange man, which would be bad in the end. After bringing the mirror outside he placed it onto the ground in front of the door, meanwhile making the man's angry look turn back into that devilish grin.
"Now, I want….you," he pointed at Hatch, "To pick it up and walk over here with it. Once you bring it to me then I will let you have the boy. Deal?"
Hatch looked at the Mayor, silently pleading him to give an answer. The Mayor could only nod his head sadly. He didn't know what was so important about the now identified mirror, but for them to kidnap Colin just to make a trade for it then it must be very important. "Yes give it to him."
Hatch slowly walked over to the mirror, and with shaky hands picked it up. Instantly the mirror glowed, making Link realize that if this man was able to "activate" it then anybody was able to accomplish that task now. At least that's what he's going with for now. He walked over in front of the horse; thankfully the horse didn't have red eyes because Hatch would freak out, and placed it on the ground with the glow from the mirror fading. The man nodded his head back towards the group and Hatch walked back towards them.
Link watched him pass by, as he moved to the front of the group while Hatch went to exchange the mirror. He noticed that the man seemed scared to death. He just couldn't stop shaking as he walked. However, he did a very brave thing to stand next to this imposing figure.
The man then dismounted the horse with Colin still on his shoulder. He placed Colin on the ground in front of the mirror making a stop motion so they would wait, and picked the mirror up. The mirror again glowed, giving more evidence to Link's assessment, and then the man walked behind his horse to place it in a really large satchel. Although it didn't fit in the satchel, he took some straps connected to the outside of the satchel and strapped it so it wouldn't fall out.
Looking back over to the group he noticed the determination in Link's face. Well this was the hero of Hyrul. Of course he would have the courage to come after them, and they would be prepared for him. Might as well issue the challenge, it could be fun. "You can come after us if you want. You can try and get this back from us, but let me warn you," his grin immediately left his face. He immediately changed to one of seriousness. "We will kill anybody who tries to stop us!"
Everybody from Ordon flinched back. Link was the only exception. He dealt with Ganondorf for goodness sake! Compared to him this guy was a kitten. But he needed to know something. Probably should blame knight's honor and all that for this next saying. "What is your name?" Link asked boldly. It would be pointless to try and ignore them and this guy. Might as well see if his pride will let him reveal too much information.
"He he. My name is Raigen. I am the general of the New Twili. Remember us, for we will show the world the true power of the World of Twilight!" It worked! He can't believe that this great "general" just pulled such a rookie mistake, and by the way the person to his right started shaking his head that person did too.
And just like that a red Twilight portal appeared into the sky. The seven of them dissembled into tiny pieces as they were lifted up into the portal. So that's how they were able to appear here so quickly. He did say that they would learn how. This could be trouble for them in the future.
(Zelda's throne room)
Zelda could already tell that things are going to change for her people. She felt the strong magic disappear and knew that it was taken. Who? That's the question plaguing her curious mind. She knew what the items were used for. After all, she is the wielder of the Triforce of Wisdom. Of course she knows what those remaining items can do when they're together. She couldn't tell Link what they really did because she didn't want him to worry about a hidden item somewhere. But of course he had to find it and activate it. She should probably tell Link everything.
"Your majesty?"
Ah, there was that guard she called for. About time he got here. Isn't that the same guy who let Link visit her when she was in her chambers? "I want you to tighten security outside and inside the vault. Some people will be coming something valuable inside and they must not get it at any cost!" Her voice practically screamed authority, and even a random creature would obey her command. Who needs magic powers when you are incredible!
But first one thing must be done. FIREBALL TO THE BUTT FOR THE IGNORANT GUARD!
Wow, she's starting to sound like Link. How sad….?
(Bo's house)
Link, Rusl, and Bo were sitting around a table in the mayor's house. Everyone was quite shaken up after what happened and were ordered to go back home to rest. However, the three of them were discussing over the mysterious strangers and what was appropriate action should be taken. Bo was the first to speak, "Alright, well what I've gathered from them is that they are some sort of group! They're not normal AND they're up to no good!"
Well….duh.
Link turned to him and said, "From what he said he was their general. It could mean he's not their leader. Zelda is the queen of Hyrule and there are the generals who are under her when it comes to military decisions. It could mean that there is another person who is in charge of them."
"More unknown numbers makes it more risky. Especially if the unknown have any kind of skill. Strategic, physical, or ANY other kind of skill needs to be known about the enemy. Heck, we didn't even get any kind of evaluation from the seven who were here earlier." Rusl of coarse with his wise words.
Bo cupped his hand to his chin before he gave out a thoughtful hum. "Yes that isn't a very good thing. From the explanation you gave earlier Link I'm pretty sure it would have been better if we didn't discover it."
"DON'T LUMP ME IN WITH YOU! I WASN'T THERE WHEN YOU FOUND IT!"
"Link, please calm down. There's no reason for you to freak out. Remember though, Link, you were the one who touched the mirror. We're ALL at fault." Leave it to Rusl, the peace maker. "Although I do have one question, when we first found it we could touch it and the vein-like designs wouldn't glow. After you touched it, they would constantly glow. Why is that?"
Link then gave a shrug. "I'm not sure, but I do have an idea. Zelda told me that contain energy from the Triforce and only those who contain the power of the Triforce can activate it. However, I guess we could say it's more like unlock. When I saw Hatch and Raigen make it glow when they touched it made me come to that conclusion. I'm afraid that because of me now they could use it." An uncomfortable silence took over the three as they digested the information. This was certainly not good news, definitely not good news. "I'm more worried about the location of where they are at. If I knew where they were I could easily find them and storm through. However, I don't."
Rusl then sighed deeply. This was troubling. An idea just popped into his head. Something Link said sparked something. "Link, you said that there is energy of the Triforce inside of it? Is there any way that you could maybe track it down? Something's off about those guys, but they were able to locate it when you touched it. Maybe you could find a way to track down on it?"
"I do feel something strange. Like I'm being drawn to something but I don't know what. I see where you're getting at, Rusl. Maybe because the fact I contain the Triforce of Courage would allow me to track down on it. Truth be told that after I touched it I felt something weird inside. Like I said it was a drawing to something. I didn't really pay much attention to it at the time, but now I definitely feel something. If that's the case then we should probably do something about this. I'll leave immediately!"
Rusl then interjected, "You're going tomorrow not right now. You're still slightly sore, plus it's starting to get dark out. You might as well go when it's daytime. Plus I'm going to go with you. No buts, Link. I'm going with you. I'm not that old, I'm able to handle others. I even can give you some trouble. So I'm going with you, no matter what." Rusl's look instantly made Link's mouth shut. He was about to disagree. There's no reason he should come when Link could handle everything all on his own.
"Then it's settled! Good luck on your journey! Bring back that mirror! I'm sure you'll do well!" Oh, you stupid mayor. All you want is to make some money, but it can't be helped.
After sighing, Rusl then turned to Link and said, "We will leave in the morning. Whenever you wake up and get ready. We need you in prime condition after all."
(World of Twilight)
"This isn't good." After calming down from her….outburst earlier, Midna couldn't help but lay down in her chambers. She was so tired that she just had to lie down. "Why did he have to do that? I know he's very curious and all, but Link should have used his head for once." Midna then sighed out loud as she assessed the situation. She knew of the New Twili. She wasn't that worried about them. Although there was something off about that general, he seemed a little too out of it in the head.
It was not too long ago when he challenged her. Raigen was a very skilled fighter. He powered through her guards and took them all by surprise.
(Flashback, one week ago)
Midna sat there on the big comfy chair, even though it was made of stone. The throne wasn't elevated at all as she wished to be able to look at her subjects in the eye as they spoke. Although today made her exhausted, all day she's has been listening to her people complain and complain. "I'm so bored," She muttered quietly. However, her voice was heard by one other person, her bodyguard heard her.
"It's alright you're majesty. Just bear with it. Later you may go to your chambers and rest. However, now you must deal with the people's problems. You know that they need this. It hasn't been long since Zant's betrayal and your people still need to pick up the pieces." Her body guard was a seven feet tall, skinny man. He wore what one would consider shrine robes from the World of the Light. His robes were gray while a red line drew its way from his shoulders down in two lines which separate farther to go down where his legs would be. His face was clearly visible showing his brown eyes. His was long and narrow. His grey face was blank of any indication except seriousness. One could tell he was raised from a regal family by his posture.
This man was the one who Midna picked to become her bodyguard after she retook the throne. While he was usually focused on his work a lot of the time, he still treated her like she was his daughter. They've known each other for a long time, and hopefully for a much longer period. "Yes, yes, I know Tyro. I'm just tired of this. I'm pretty sure Link doesn't have to deal with this crap."
Tyro's sigh was quiet. This conversation shouldn't be heard from any of the others after all. So many people surrounded the room; these were the nobles of her kingdom. It's always stuffy when these people are here. While commonsense should be that the queen would obviously be bored of all the work she must do, it's obvious that many people don't really care. People can be very selfish at times. "I'm pretty sure this Link is running around acting like a child. You shouldn't want to have to do anything that child does." Oh yeah, he doesn't care for Link very much. He knows about what she went through with Link and pulling the overprotective father part out, he basically considers Link the bane of all existence.
"You're right, he probably is. However, he's probably focused on rescuing others and defeating the enemies of the World of Light. He can be immature, but he can also be a hero." Tyro's huff showed that she got him worked up, and he knows that he would need to drop it. Her win.
"No, you can't go in there!" That was one of the guards. What's going on?
To her surprise the two big doors guarding everything on the other side of the door flew open at great speed. Three people walked into the room. Hoods were covering their faces as they strode in with confidence. Two were carrying the two guards who were guarding the door. The two carrying the guards threw them on the floor then stopped walking as the third person walked closer to her. All of the nobles in the room quickly stepped to the side shaking in fear. Although, those closest to the door fled whenever they had the chance.
Midna eyed them wearily. She knows that this isn't good. "May I help you?"
The one man closest to her threw back the hood covering his face. His insane grin quickly showing its way onto his face, and he looked at Midna with a bloodthirsty look. It was creepy. "My name is Raigen. Yes, you are able to help me. Tell me, do you really feel fit to be our ruler?" He noticed her narrowing her eyes at him, she obviously she didn't expect him to ask that. "I don't think you are. Not only that, but I also believe that someone else should be in charge."
"And who would this person be?" Tyro asked the question before she did. She didn't want to have to deal with this kind of person.
"The name escapes me. I'm just kidding! I actually have an idea of who it is. I'm not going to tell though. Let me just say this to everyone." All of the bystanders in the room immediately looked his way. "Our world parallels another. We all know this. This rightful ruler could bring us that world. We could control it, and everyone who lives here would become rulers!" The man's grin spoke about what he truly cared about in the process. The fighting. "We are the New Twili! Join us! For we have great plans for all of you. But fight against us, and we will show you true fear." In other words, he means they will die a horrible death.
"Your majesty. You shouldn't have to deal with this scum. I will defeat him and stop him. He's probably just all talk." Tyro then walked forward. It was time to fight. Discarding his robes showed a blue shirt with grey pants. He quickly unsheathed a long sword from the sheath around his waist. The sword was small, maybe a few inches wide but was three feet long. "Let me take care of this guy for you."
"Hahahaha. You'll do fine. I can't wait to see your blood spill onto the ground." A knife slipped into both of his hands before he rushed at Tyro.
[With Midna]
Midna couldn't stand by as her Tyro was in danger. Tyro's a skilled fighter in his own right, but with her helping him then they would crush this guy. They did practice a lot together after all.
Before she could do that, though; the other two that came with Raigen stepped in her way. Throwing back their two hoods revealed their faces, which surprisingly were the exact same. This meant that they were twins. They're grey faces staring at her with light brown eyes. Their dirty blond hair put back into a manly ponytail, which really isn't possible, flapped around with the wind. When did they get here?
"I wouldn't do that if I were you-"
"Princess. You would probably like to know what we-"
"Have to tell you. Across the town several-"
"Assassins have been placed all over town."
"They have captured random town residents-"
"And if we give the signal, they will die." The twins spoke weirdly. How was she supposed to know if they were telling the truth? They could be lying. But before she could ask this question, they revealed something that made her heart stop.
A little bear was what was shown to her. She recognized the bear; it was from a little girl that came to visit her a few days ago. With her eyes narrowing and her eyes hardening she asked in a steeled voice, "How did you get that?"
"We already told you how."
"All that's left is for you to stand right there-"
"And not move a muscle."
"We will give the signal and those-"
"Captured will die. And those who are here now-"
"Will also die."
If they were bluffing or not she didn't know. This isn't something that doesn't want to gamble with. If she were in charge before her time with Link she wouldn't have really cared. However, she has changed because of her time with Link. The safety of her people has become way more important. For now she'll just sit back and wait.
[With Tyro]
Tyro swung at Raigen's head with amazing speed, hoping to take him down quickly. However, Raigen was able to duck in time, which surprised Tyro. This big, burly man was able to move at such speed? This is impossible.
He swung back and forth. Horizontally, vertically, and diagonally as Raigen continued to duck and block his attacks with his tiny knives. This wasn't good. He needed to start fighting with the grace that he was trained with. Tyro's moves became more intricate.
Raigen noticed this and a grin spread onto his face. Tyro jumped and before he landed immediately turned where his sword was facing up at Raigen. He landed on his shoulder when Raigen blocked it with his knives. He jumped back up as Raigen sent a leg down onto where Tyro was a second ago, making the floor crack a little.
This REALLY wasn't good. Raigen was has a style of fighting too? Or was he just that talented? Either way he's been matching him move for move. He needs to end this now. "I assume that you have had some kind of training? Your moves are way too specific. Whoever trained you did a very good job. However, this ends here. I'm not going to let you leave here alive." With this statement Tyro ducked down into a stance. His right foot ahead and his left shoulder rotated a little back.
"Really? You think I will be the one to die? You can't defeat me. Even if you defeated me others will come. The New Twili doesn't give up easily." And he rushed forward, attempting a quick slice at the head. Tyro quickly ducked but had a second knife come at him from down below. A quick block saved him, but he then pushed Raigen away from him.
When Tyro was balanced he moved forward a little and sent a spin attack at Raigen. Raigen ducked from the attack, and then quickly moved his knives up, making Tyro's arm lift up into the air because of the momentum.
Tyro used his agility and flexibility by spinning around a tiny slice by Raigen. With his feet planted before launching down the sword that was above. Raigen looked up with some surprise. That move surprised him, but it wasn't enough to take him down. Tyro looked down at Raigen with a triumphant smirk. He got him; with his sword thrust so high in the air he could launch it down making it faster and stronger. Even if he blocked it he would be sent to the ground where Tyro could incapacitate him. This would end it all.
With great surprise Raigen was able to block the attack with his two knives parallel from each other. Raigen grinned as Tyro finally understood. Raigen was fast AND strong. His big body wasn't just for show and his mind was sharp and quick. Raigen is easily stronger than he was. His pure strength was enough to keep the sword from sending him to the ground. With this knowledge Tyro watched as Raigen sent his leg up, knocking the sword out of his hands. Tyro's shock became his downfall as Raigen clotheslined Tyro. Sending Tyro to the ground hard enough to create a huge dent in the ground. That sucker hurt.
Grinning at Tyro Raigen said, "I told you that those who opposed us would fall. However, I will give you an award for doing so well; I will let you live. But I need to make sure you don't get back up." Raigen then stepped back a little. He was charging up for something.
He failed. That's all his hazy mind could think of at the moment. Looking at Midna, he noticed that she was looking at him in horror. She tried to move but the two that came with Raigen wouldn't let her. Apparently they told her something that wouldn't let her move. Moving over onto his stomach he tried to stand up, but his muscles were that exhausted.
Raigen started laughing loudly. This was perfect! He'll finish this and complete his mission. Soon they will enter the world of Light, and he will destroy them. All these fools will blindly follow them because of this display of power. "Watch this! It's time for you all to realize how strong we are!" And with that he rushed forward slightly to the left side of Tyro. Lifting his leg back he then released a powerful punk kick to Tyro's head, which made contact.
Midna watched as Tyro flew several feet. His neck bent in unnatural ways before he started skidding across the ground and hit the wall. The dent in the wall and the random chunks around the body showed how much force was used. It was easy enough to tell that he was unconscious.
Raigen looked towards Midna and grinned as he walked towards her. "Now, queen Midna," there was an obvious mocking tone when he said that, "Step away from the chair. I think you know what is to happen if you disobey."
Midna knew she was cornered. Whatever it was that they wanted they shouldn't have. But she can't stand in his way, for the safety of her villagers was much more important right now. She could always send someone to take care of them later.
So she stepped aside, and was actually curious as Raigen focused on the chair. There's nothing in there of importance. Maybe they might have messed up the locations. To her surprise he sent his fist into the stone chair, breaking it into several pieces. Her surprise grew even more as she saw a stone incased in glass on a pedestal. The stone was glowing a bright yellow. Picking it up Raigen looked at the Princess and gave a smirk before saying, "You see this? This is something that will bring your downfall." And instantly they were rushed out of the room. With speeds she rarely ever saw on anybody else.
(Flashback end)
Tyro has been hospitalized since then. He suffered a massive injury to the head, well he did receive a nasty kick to it, and she knew that no matter how much he wished to stay by her side to protect her. Silly old man, he needs to stay in bed and rest. In the aftermath of those events she attempted to find where they could have been hiding.
The stone they stole has much more importance than many think it would. Consulting one of the wisest in her kingdom, she told Midna that the stone is connected to both worlds. The biggest thing is, that it can send someone from her world to the World of Light. Then she was told of the items with both energy from the World of Twilight and the Triforce.
That's when she tried to contact Link. It worked, and she was ecstatic about that. Hopefully the knucklehead would be able to put a stop to them, or at least make sure that the New Twili would never be able to find the two items. Preferably the mirror.
But that all went to heck as she felt a huge pull from her on energy. This she was told would happen if one of the items hidden in the World of Light was activated by a bearer of the Triforce. She knows Zelda would be too smart to activate it and Ganondorf is dead, so by deduction the only one who would have activated the thing is Link. Stupid Link.
Well hopefully he would be able to keep it out of their hands. Otherwise things could go downhill. There's only three of those important items needed, and the could possibly have three already.
Be careful out there Link. Things have changed, and if he doesn't do something quickly then what could happen will be on a much larger scale then what Zant did.
Chapter 1. End
Hey everybody! This is my first story so it might not be perfect. If you noticed anything I could work on then just let me know via message or in the reviews. I'll try to keep the rest of the chapters this long. So just let me know! Hope you enjoyed the story!
