This is another Link x Ganon and its Hyrule Warriors. I decided to remove the Shadow Warrior's one because im going to try and get more ideas for it. It will come back but i want to have ideas before it comes back (and more than one chapter at least)
-=-Link's Pov-=-
I slowly tread through the sand to find this massive snake that keeps trying to break down the walls of the castle and I mutter about how it's stupid that I have to be alone. I continue to look around and I growl when I notice I'm running out of water but I feel like I'm being watched. I hear the rattling to late as I get bit and I cry out, falling and I hold the wound as I see the rattle snake slither away and I bite my lip 'I'll never make it back now…if I move then the poison will spread faster…dang it Zelda! You just cost me my life…' I think and I try to cut off the circulation in my leg so the poison doesn't get farther up fast and I try to ignore the pain but when it gets really bad I pass out.
-=-Ganon's Pov-=-
I frown when I see the boy pass out, heading over to him. I was just about to summon some of my servants for my attack on Hyrule, but this occurrence distracted me too much. I scan his body to see how I could help him; I don't want him dying for some stupid reason like this... I pull out a spare vial that I have in my bag and use magic to draw the poison out of his veins. I use a spell to heal any damage the poison's already done and I nod my head. I reach for one of my jugs of water, opening it. I hold it to his lips, knowing the dehydration helped in his passing out.
-=-Link's Pov-=-
I slowly wake and I look around and I notice…I'm in a tent of sorts? It looks to be a camp but by the wind I know I'm still in the desert…I try to move but it hurts to move and my throat feels dry though my mouth is a bit wet so I guess I was given water.
-=-Ganon's Pov-=-
I notice when he wakes up and I hand him another jug of water, assuming that his throat would be really dry. He takes it and after sniffing it he starts gulping it down. I just smile faintly, watching him.
-=-Link's Pov-=-
I sigh when I'm done and the guy takes it back and walks over to a table that has a set of potions and he gives me some to help me recover. I sigh when I feel much better but then I look at him "Who are you anyway?" I say, wondering who he is.
-=-Ganon's Pov-=-
"I'm Ganondorf, but everyone pretty much calls me Ganon." I say, "And who are you?"
-=-Link's Pov-=-
I smile "I'm Link…thanks for saving me Ganon…" I say and I sigh before muttering "That stupid princess…I told her not to send me out her alone but she flat out ignores me saying I'll be fine on my own yet I get bit by a snake…" I sigh and I close my eyes before Ganon asks if I want anything to eat and I nod. After eating some food he tells me to rest and I yawn, drinking some water before slowly slipping off to sleep.
-=-Ganon's Pov-=-
I start thinking about what he just mentioned, so he knows the princess... I wonder what exactly he is to her...
-=-Link's Pov-=-
I wake to see it's still dark but it seems to be just turning light. I notice I'm covered in a blanket and I curl up under it, turning to my side and I snuggle under it, the night air freezing but the blanket is warm. After a bit its pretty light and I see Ganon come in the tent and I smile "Morning…" I say sleepily, still tired.
-=-Ganon's Pov-=-
"Good morning." I say with a slight smile. He looks pretty cute when still half-asleep. Wait... I shouldn't be thinking like this about him, I don't know really who he is and who's side he's on…
-=-Link's Pov-=-
I yawn again, causing him to chuckle a bit as he hands me some water and I drink it, my body needing it badly. He hands me some food and I eat that as well. I start feeling pain and he gives me more painkillers but they also make me drowsy. I lie on my side and I watch him, sleepy from the painkillers as he works on maps and other stuff.
-=-Ganon's Pov-=-
I start planning my first attack against the other side, since Link's passing out distracted me from carrying out the first one I had planned.
-=-Link's Pov-=-
I yawn again and I drink more water, Ganon had left a jug next to me, and I kick the covers off, the morning chill gone replaced by the desert heat and I sigh as I try to go to sleep "Why did it have to be me that was chosen for this war…and even after it I still have to fight some monster…when will this end…" I mutter softly and then I sigh "I hope Lana is doing alright guarding that piece…" I mutter even softer and then I fall asleep, my body needing to recover and the painkillers knocking me out.
-=-Ganon's Pov-=-
I frown slightly when I hear him faintly mutter that. I have slightly better hearing than a normal human and I've been trained to pick up really quiet sounds… Cia told me that the girl I'm supposed to attack first is called Lana, so he must be on the other side...
-=-Link's Pov-=-
I wake around noon to Ganon shaking me gently and he smiles. He gives me more water and food then more painkillers since the others wore off and then goes back to his mapping stuff. I ask him what he is doing and he says just marking areas in the desert to check on and make sure the camp doesn't get attacked and I just nod. I feel tired again but I drink more water and I sigh "Zelda after this stupid war has been treating me like some stupid dog…that she can just command around and tell me what to do…I've got a life and free spirit yet she doesn't think so…I guess getting bit just means more time away from her and her ordering me around…" I mutter and I get comfy "I feel like this war isn't over…but if Zelda keeps treating me like this…I might just join the other side and see if they are like her…if so then I'll just leave Hyrule to be free…" I mutter super soft and then I get knocked out by the painkillers again.
-=-Ganon's Pov-=-
I hear him mutter something about Zelda and I just frown, not quite getting all the words. However, from the sound of his voice, he doesn't sound very happy with her...
-=-Link's Pov-=-
It's been a couple days and I've been feeling a lot better. I've been allowed to walk around the tent and get my muscles stronger again and the bite has healed almost fully. Ganon has been mapping in a different tent now but…I saw it was a map of hyrule not just the desert…I think he might be on the dark side but I don't say anything for fear of him suddenly turning on me. I lie back in my bed after a half hour of walking around and stretching so I don't get weak and Ganon comes in and I smile "Hi Ganon…so what have you been up too?" I say.
-=-Ganon's Pov-=-
I smile at him, "Just working on my maps." I say, not knowing that he's seen the map of Hyrule yet.
-=-Link's Pov-=-
I yawn and I drink some water then Ganon gives me some food and I thank him. He eats with me this time and I enjoy being with him…he is better than Zelda in all honesty. Once I'm done I lie back down on the bed and I sigh in content "I can't thank you enough…really…" I say and he chuckles and I smile. Once he is done he takes the dishes out of the tent and then comes back and refills the jug and then sits at the table and starts writing…though when I tried to read it, it was in something I couldn't read. I get comfy "Almost healed and then I have to go back to the princess…wish I didn't though" I mutter "She always treats me like some battle pet that she can just send out on its own and it will come home fine…" I mutter and then I sigh and turn over, falling asleep soon afterwards.
-=-Ganon's Pov-=-
I continue writing for a while, feeling a bit bad for Link. Zelda obviously isn't treating him well, and he shouldn't stand for that...
-=-Link's Pov-=-
I wake up in the middle of the night after a nightmare and I curl up under the blanket, the chilly night air not helping sooth me. I whimper and I'm quivering, frightened by the dream. I curl up and I try to settle but it's hard and I'm sweating badly.
-=-Ganon's Pov-=-
I wake up to the sound of whimpering and I enter Link's tent. I frown when I notice that he's frightened by something and I walk over to his bed, sitting down on the edge of it. I place a hand on his shoulder, trying to comfort him slightly, unsure how he'll react to my presence.
-=-Link's Pov-=-
I only peek out from under the covers and when I see his golden eyes that glow slightly even with the dim light I only come out of the covers and crawl into his lap, seeking comfort and he holds me. He asks me what's wrong and I take a shuddering breath "I had a bad dream…and It was not fun…" I say and he starts soothing me, me slowly relaxing.
-=-Ganon's Pov-=-
I continue to soothe him until he's completely relaxed. I sit with him for awhile, figuring that he might want the company as he goes back to sleep.
-=-Link's Pov-=-
I snuggle into him, soothed by him being here. I yawn and I whisper thanks for being here and helping me settle down. He chuckles softly at that and I slowly slip off to sleep, his warmth comforting me.
-=-Ganon's Pov-=-
I try to stand up, but he snuggles closer to me. I smile fondly, allowing myself to get comfortable. I fall asleep myself after a little bit of time.
-=-Link's Pov-=-
I wake and I find out that Ganon stayed with me and I smile, enjoying the cuddling and I yawn. I notice Ganon slowly wake and I just smile "Morning…sleep good?" I say and he nods. He gets up and stretches then leaves the tent and I sit up and stretch, drinking some water.
-=-Ganon's Pov-=-
I return with food for the both of us and I sit down and start eating. Honestly, I'd rather spend my day with Link, but I have more planning to do that he doesn't need to know about, so I can't…
-=-Link's Pov-=-
We chat for a bit but once he is done eating he says he has more planning to do and I just nod. He leaves and I sigh then I continue eating, already missing his company. I've grown a bit attached to him…but because he is probably on the dark side maybe I shouldn't…the planning must be to attack Lana and then the castle but…should I just show that I know and join him? I don't know what to think. Suddenly I hear rattling and I look to see a rattle snake had made its way into the tent and it's currently rattling at me. I'm frozen, unsure of what to do but before I can move it suddenly leaps at me 'Not again!' I think as I cry out and the snake flees as Ganon comes in "Damn snake somehow got in here…" I mutter through gritted teeth at the pain.
-=-Ganon's Pov-=-
I frown, going over to where I keep my vials. I sigh in relief when I notice that I have a few more left and I use the same spell to pull the venom out of his bloodstream. I then heal any damage that it has already done, before giving Link a painkiller, just to remove any last shocks of pain he could be feeling.
-=-Link's Pov-=-
I smile "Thanks…for helping me and for everything…" I say and he smiles. I sigh in relief and I lie on my left side, the snake bit my right arm, and I am drowsy "Guess I have to stay longer…whatever…" I say and I yawn and once I'm comfy the painkillers knock me out.
-=-Ganon's Pov-=-
I nod at that and start writing in here, wanting to keep an eye on him.
-=-Link's Pov-=-
It's been another couple days and my arm has been a pain. I still walk around the tent but my arm hurts a lot. I don't like having the painkillers because they always knock me out so I try and exercise before I take them. I sit and rest after stretching and Ganon comes in with some food and more water. I hate feeling like this but once I've got food in my system and I'm good with water I'm given the pain meds and then I lie on the bed and snuggle in. Ganon sits at the desk so he can watch over me as I sleep and I smile "Zelda must be wondering if her little "Pet" is doing alright…with how badly she treats me…maybe I should just join the dark side…" I mutter and I sigh silently "It might work out better for me…maybe I wouldn't be treated like a little battle pet but a human…someone who has an actual life and soul instead of an obedient pet…" I mutter before yawning and I fall asleep because of the meds.
-=-Ganon's Pov-=-
I hear the mutter a bit more clearly because he was slightly louder than usual. So, he might want to join our side... Hmm, that could probably be arranged. And he'll definitely be treated better with us... I'll make sure of it.
-=-Link's Pov-=-
It's been another 4 days, which I've been out here for 12 days so far if I'm right, and my arm is fully healed. I'm able to leave but…I wanted to talk with Ganon before I left. I call for him and he comes in the tent and I'm nervous but…I have to see how he reacts "Ganon…you're going to attack Lana and get the Piece of Power soon…am I right?" I say, watching how he will react.
-=-Ganon's Pov-=-
I look at him shocked before slowly nodding my head. "Yes, I will be, why?"
-=-Link's Pov-=-
I bite my lip "Can I join you…as your first in command?" I say but before he can respond I stop him "Let me say why before you answer. Zelda the princess has been treating me as her little battle pet and sends me ALONE for many fights. When there is more than one I am lucky to get a troop of guards following me. I'm her first in command but I would gladly give it up because if you haven't saved me her stupidity would have gotten me killed because of the bite. I am sick of how she treats me in the castle because she treats me as her personal slave "Do this" and "Do that" is everywhere. She even tried getting me to bath her once but I smacked her in the head and I told Impa I was sick of her. Impa told her off about the bathing thing because I was male and she was female and she got one of the female servants to do it. One time…when I didn't listen she chained me up and beat me with a whip…it was not fun but Impa heard what she was doing and it quickly ended with Impa striking her with the whip and telling her that she was a princess and she should act like one not beat up their little hero…I'm sick of being on that side if that's all I get…I was…hoping that if I join this side then…maybe I could get a better start" I say and I wait for his answer. I know he hasn't summoned anyone yet to help so it's just me and him for the moment.
-=-Ganon's Pov-=-
I nod, "You can be my first in command. I'll definitely treat you better than she has." I say, honestly. Also, Cia is going to be proud of me for getting one of the light side over on our side…
-=-Link's Pov-=-
I smile and my eyes show how happy I am that he accepted. He walks over to me and his hand rests on my head and a symbol appears. Its Zelda's mark but it shatters and it's replaced with a red one and I smile as I accept the mark, knowing that I'm now his first in command. I close my eyes as his magic changes me and after a bit I open my eyes. My clothing is now a silver, red and gold color, my eyes are normal though and same with my hair but mainly the tunic changed. He smiles and then goes outside and I hear weird sounds before hearing voices and I smirk, knowing who they are. I hear Ghirahim, Zant, Volga, Shadow Link and Cia, Skull Kid and Wizzro. I listen to Ganon tell them he found a first in command and they all ask who it is and I hear him call me without using my name and I walk over and I step out, causing many to be surprised but Cia smirks "So you managed to get the little Hero on our side? Congrats…how did you manage to get this feisty hero on our side so easily?" She says and I just smile because I know the others will pester him if he doesn't tell them.
-=-Ganon's Pov-=-
I sigh, knowing they'll bug me if I don't give an answer. "I saved him from dying to a poisonous snake without knowing who he was. I figured out which side he was on eventually, but decided to let him heal, knowing it would have been cheap to save him and then kill him within a few days." They all nod their heads, understanding that. "He then asked if he could be my first in command, apparently the innocent" My voice sours with the word, "princess hasn't been treating him like an equal, but rather a servant. Her loss now." I say, causing the others to chuckle.
-=-Link's Pov-=-
Cia starts to flirt with me but I glare at her "Look bitch go find another guy to bug. I had Zelda being a bitch to me more than enough and I don't need you doing it to me" I say and I go and stand on the other side of Ganon as Ghirahim and Zant snicker. The camp is made bigger and Ganon shows me the plans but I just laugh "This can be scrapped, the ones for Lana, because all I have to do is lead her out of there and with a well-planned ambush we can take the piece of power easily." I say and he chuckles. I help him set up where we could do the ambush and when we should do it and its kinda fun helping him.
-=-Ganon's Pov-=-
It's definitely going to give us an advantage having Link on our side, especially until the rest of the light knows that he's on our side.
-=-Link's Pov-=-
Soon the plan is set up and I have him scratch the plan for having an army head to the castle right after getting the piece because Ganon could keep Lana tied up while I go to the castle and invite Zelda for a picnic and lead her far from the castle to the area for an ambush. Then all we have to do next is storm the castle in the dark of night and take them by surprise and we got the kingdom. Ganon is impressed by how I planned everything and I chuckle "Like how its set up? It will work a bit better than your plan but that's as long as the plan works perfectly." I say.
-=-Ganon's Pov-=-
I nod, "It's really good, and it should work." I say, feeling confident in the way this ambush is planned.
-=-Link's Pov-=-
I smirk "Let's have this happen the day after tomorrow. We have everyone move out and be ready tomorrow for the ambush and then the next day I lead Lana to the area marked." I say and he nods. He tells me I can use the tent I've always slept in and I nod, yawning because the planning took a few hours and its already turning night. I head to the tent, being given dinner on the way as Ganon goes to tell the others about the new plans.
-=-Cia's Pov-=-
I smile when Ganon comes over "So what did you and the new first in command plan? I heard you had to scrap the other plans just from passing the tent." I say. Everyone goes quiet and we all look at Ganon as he sits in the chair that is near the fire.
-=-Ganon's Pov-=-
"He's going to lead Lana out away from the rest of the light so that we can easily get the Piece of Power. Then he's going to invite Zelda for a 'picnic'" I say, making quotation marks with my fingers on the word picnic, "and we'll ambush her then. Then all we'd have to do is storm the castle at night and it'd be ours." I say, knowing everyone else is going to like this plan.
-=-Cia's Pov-=-
Everyone says it's a great plan and I chuckle "So the little hero came up with this? Well…this is a very good plan. Let's hope everyone works together and make sure this doesn't fail. If one person spots this and warns the princess…then the plan will fail…well not really. We have Zelda's little Hero so we will get it by trickery or force either way." I say and everyone nods. Some say night and head back to their own tents and soon it's just me and Ganon "Well you and Link made a great plan but here is my question since everyone is asleep…do you have feelings for the boy? I know that you saved him from a bite and all but…I notice the way you look at him and it may just be me seeing things but…you look at him with a loving look and not just the friendship or ally loving look when someone does good but on a deeper level but that might just be me." I say.
-=-Ganon's Pov-=-
I blush at the question, and slowly nod my head. "I won't lie… I do have feelings for him."
-=-Cia's Pov-=-
I smile "Well good luck confessing one day. I'm heading to bed and you should too. This plan needs to be perfect so we need sleep and energy. Night" I say and then I get up and go into my tent, getting ready for bed and I fall asleep.
-=-Ganon's Pov-=-
I head to my tent as well, getting ready for bed. I lay down, thinking about everything that's happened as I slowly fall asleep.
-=-Link's Pov-=-
I'm up and about before anyone else, packing most of the stuff and once I'm done I see Cia is awake and she comes over "So already packing? You could have woken us you know." She says but I chuckle "You guys are doing the ambush I am simply leading her to the ambush. You guys need more energy than me so I decided to pack most of the stuff" I say and she merely sighs and helps me. Zant and Ghirahim had summoned Demon horses and Twili horses last night and carts as well so pretty much everything but the tents and what's in them is packed. I go into Ghirahim's tent and I shove him off the bed then I do the same for the others, waking them but I let Ganon wake on his own as Cia fixes breakfast and Volga helps by starting a fire. Once breakfast is done I start eating, Ghirahim and Zant finishing fast and they start loading the carts with extra tents, since the main camp will stay here, and I just eat.
-=-Ganon's Pov-=-
I wake up to the smell of breakfast and I get dressed and head outside my tent. I get some food for myself and sit down near Link before beginning to eat.
-=-Link's Pov-=-
I chat with Ganon for a while until everyone is done eating. Once everyone is ready to go and all the tents are magically sealed I call my horse Epona and she comes running and I get on her. We get started to the path where we are going to do the ambush but my vision flickers and I groan and hold my head 'no…why now…' I think as I hold my throbbing head. Epona whinnies in panic and I know she senses what is going on. Suddenly all the horses bolt away from me, taking the carts and everyone away from me as I whine in pain and I fight what is going on. Epona shifts nervously under me and I know why but I continue to fight. I search through my pouch and I find a syringe and I inject a drop of the glowing liquid in me and my head stops throbbing. I sigh in relief and I put the thing away. Epona whinnies and all the horses come back, everyone confused but I tell them I'll explain later and I have us continue on.
