Prologue

Link ran through the twilight ridden streets of kakariko village. He looked frantically from side to side checking behind every house in every window.

"Midna? Whats going on? Zelda?"

Link fell to his knees as he reached the exit of kakariko village. He gasped for breath as sweat trickled down his forehead and ran into his open mouth. He looked down at his hands only to find them covered in blood. Why was everything so detached? His mind raced through his recent memories. Terror, all was lost then everything went blank.

"Zelda? Midna? Anyone?"

Link closed his eyes and wiped his face with his hands. Everything and everyone was gone, he had failed. All he had loved, dead.

"All is not lost my love, no the opposite in fact."

Link whipped around and pulled out his sword. He looked around confused; there was no one there. He let his sword droop until it touched the ground.

"On the contrary, all is gained."

Link closed his eyes and fell to the ground.

"Who are you?" he sighed.

A hand touched his face and lifted his chin. He opened his eyes and immediately fell back. Zelda smiled delicately and let go of his chin.

"Look around you, a new world of twilight has arisen from old weak country." Zelda spat her last words with disgust. Link eyes widened with horror.

"We can rule, think about it you with the triforce of courage, me with the triforce of wisdom! If we bow to Ganon we can rule this new twilight! Together with Ganon we have the power to create a new stronger country! We can …"

Zelda face crumpled into pain. She glanced down to see a sword piercing her gut.

"You will never again rule over anything while I live. Zelda, I never thought you would turn so power hungry. Sorry."

Link sliced his sword up through her stomach watching her fall slowly to the ground blood spewing out of her body, staining the ground. A tear slid down his face as he remembered the fate of his beloved Hyrule. Link stared into the sky and bit his lip as he saw the twilight sky instead of the normal blue sky of the light world. Link tasted blood from his lip. "Why Zelda? Why?"

Suddenly Link's back burned with pain and he fell forward on to the ground. Behind him a man with poisonous yellow eyes lowered his sword and uttered a horrifying laugh.
