(In a large throne room Xevelous approches the King of Hyrule. Rain falls outside the castle walls, the room dark.-- In a circular room 15yr old Zelda sits at the edge of her bed, looking down. there is a knock on the door)
Gaurd: Princess, your father!
(Back in the throne room, Zelda runs to the king kneeling on the floor beside him)
Zelda: Father!
King: I have failed. The sages have fallen. No longer is it safe. Zelda, young and beautiful, you must use my wisdom to complete my task.
Zelda: Anything.
King: You must bring the scatterd pieces of power together, do not let Ganon and...
Zelda: Father!
King: Worry not my princess, I will always be with you. (The king takes Zelda's hand, a bright glow flows between them.) I will my power to you. (And the light becomes so bright that no one can see, and the light is gone, along with the king.)
Zelda: (Holds her head down and a tear falls, she places her other hand ontop of the one that heild her fathers hand.) Xevolous. My father wated to gather the pieces of power together, and have them protected in the castle.
(A woman enters the room, a tall robust black Talim. She walks in holding her dress up with speed.)
Talim: Princess I came as soon as I heard.
Xevelouse: I will assemble the knights immediatly.
Talim: Hun, do you want to make any orders at this hour?
Zelda: (Coldly) Time is of the essence. I think it unwise to be indecisive.
(Xevelouse walks off nodding to the gaurd as he goes.)
------
(A large amount of knights ride off in different directions from the castle. One group heads to Kakariko, and death mountian, another to Zora's Domain, one group to Kokiri forrest, the next to Graruda, and another to high mountians. At each place show an exchange of a golden fragment from native people. Focus on Geruda, the knights arrive with six in their group. They walk through a series of corridors, and into rooms with prisoners, wemen as gaurds wearing asyrian looking clothing, a Garuda woman hands the head knight Rodderik a fragment and as he turns round, to find a cloaked man, his ead down coverd by a coak, his name Frex.)
Frex: Ganon has returned, and he asks that you join him or perish.
Rodderik: Ganon will not retrive all the pieces. The knights of Hyrule will not give into Ganon, nor his clumsy apprentice.
Frex: Then Perhaps you will give into them.
(Frex moves his hands, and the locks on all the prisoner doors open.)
Frex: Ganon has released you! Now kill the knights stading in our glorious king's way!
(The prisoners burst out of the prisons and begin attacking the knights. The knights fall quickly, as Roddrick is the last one standing. He grips onto the Powe Triforce Fragment tightly, his hand begins to glow. He spreads his arms and the prisoners all lay on the ground. Frex shoots a blast of fire at Rodderick who pushes the golden glow at Frex. An invisible force pushes Frex back and he hits the ground hard.)
Frex: Lowly knight, you have no idea the powers you meddle with. Leave the true magic to the professianals.
Rodderik: Then what are you doing here?
(Frex shoots an invisible force at Rodderik, he pushes the triforce again this time the triforce becomes hot and begins to melt Rodderiks armor. A geruda woman kncks it out of his hands close to Frex and knocks Rodderik out. Frex picks up the fragment)
---
(In the throne room a knight from each group holds a triforce piece before Zelda. The last one missing. A black smoke creeps in through the windows of he throne room.)
Zelda: Where is the final piece.
Xevelouse, I am afraid it has been intercepted. Rodderick was unsuccesful in obtaining the final piece.
Zelda: Where is he?
Xevelous: I am assuming he is heild in the Garuda prison.
Zelda: Why....
(From the smoke six bats swoop down along with a big black monster, the bats take the six pieces of the triforce while the knighs battle the black beast. The knigts pull out heir sword, and with two swings of the monsters fist, the six knights are thrown against the wall. The bats fly out the window and there is a giant dragon flying around the castle blowing fire half hazardly hitting a few things. Once the bats are cleared the dragon makes it's way with them. Zelda focuses on the shadow beast and it explodes sending a black cloud in the air. Xevelouse approaches Zelda.)
Zelda: I failed. He got them anyway. With the power of a fragment Ganon could conjuret he forces to take these pices. (She scans the room to see her defeated knights and the empty silver platers. She steps to a baclony overlooking the castle grounds with fires around, and turns to Xevelous.) Evacuate the castle.
Xevelous: Princess?
Zelda: Call for the council.
_____
(In an undisclosed location, Zelda, Impa, King Zora, Darumia, Daria, Xevelous, Talim, and a few gaurds sit at a table, in an undislcoed location.)
Zelda: Ganon has the Trifoce of Power.
(There is a clamor.)
Impa: Quiet, if we have something to discuss, better at the table than whisperd into eachothers ears.
Zelda: I am evacuating the castle and I need to find new homes for the soon to be refuges.
Daria: The desert is ment to keep criminals, not citizins.
King Zora: To bear the burden of your recklessness is one thing, now you want us to house the very ones Ganon seeks to destroy?
Zelda: It is my burden, and I am sorry you must all endure. I ask for you to show compassion to those in need of your help.
Darunia: And what is it you plan to do yourself when Ganon comes.
Zelda: No longer can we wait for the Hero Of Prophecy. I plan on stnding in the front lines of the battlefield.
Daruna: The gorons would be proud to welcome the followers of such a courageous princess.
King Zora: it is not the Princess job to be courageous. Unless you have found the other triforce.
Talim: You know very well the hero took the triforce of courage when he left this kindom. The only way the final pice will be brought back is if the hero comes himself. Your dark serches for the missing pice have not been forgotten.
Saria: The forest is a dangerous place for those who do not know it's power.
Xevelous: As is every domain in our world. The elemens show no compassion to the weak.
Zelda: But they bend to the one with power. Ganon is not to be underestimated.
King Zora: By letting Ganon get a hold on any piece of the triforce, you have led this world into extinction.
Daria: So he sent one to you too?
Talim: Sent what?
Daria: Ganon is sending messengers to ask us for his alegence against you. His claim, you have led the world into extinction.
Zelda: Is this something you are concidering? (Looking down, her harsh cold tone resenationg throughout the room)
King Zora: Yes. Why should we continue to follow you? Wisdom has led us to this, power is our salvaion.
Talim: My dear king, Power is our demise, Courage is our salvation.
Impa: Kakariko is no fortress, but it will house many.
King Zora: The King of Hyrule's death, and the fall of the Castle, what form of leadership do we have then? Surly the Zora's will step up.
Daria: Not with you as king they won't.
King Zora: Then what makes thievs more quilified, as it is Ganon hails from your people.
Daruna: If there is no more Hyrule caste, there is no more kingdom.
Saria: What will happen to the villages? it's a symbiotic circle, one can't go on while the others die.
Zelda: THen Hyrule castle must not fall.
Xevelous: Then the hero must return.
Talim: We need the hero, and if Hyrule castle falls...
King Zora: Ganon will inherit the earth, as if he hasn't already.
