-=-3rd Person Pov Location: Skyloft-=- ~thought~ "Speech" 'vision, past'
One day three years after Demise was defeated, Link is found sleeping in bed late again and Zelda (Hylia Zelda Goddess I don't know what to call her) knocks on his door many times. "Link wake up! You slept late again and you said we could go fly today!" yells Zelda while still banging on the door trying to get Link to wake up. A sudden thump is heard on the door. Link had thrown a book at the door to get Zelda to quit pounding in his door. "I'm up Zelda I'm sorry for sleeping in again!". Link calls as he gets dressed as fast as possible.
Link opens the door and bumps into Zelda thinking she was going to meet him outside instead waiting outside his door. "Link come on I want to start as soon as possible." Says Zelda and starts dragging Link with her. "Come on can't I go eat first before we fly" whines Link. Zelda stops in her tracks. "Fine you can go eat but be quick." Says Zelda annoyed. Link runs off to go grab something to eat before they go flying.
-=-Location: Hylia's Realm/Sealed Grounds-=-
Everything is peaceful, the wind blowing gently in the trees, the birds chirping, that is until small black wisps form under the goddess statue on the center of the ring of circles. A white hand pushes out where the wisps form and makes a dark hole form. The hand makes the hole bigger and when it's big enough a figure emerges from the hole and lays beside it but closes the hole and pants heavily. ~Finally... I'm free…free...but so weak...~ the figure thinks to its self. The figure is covered in blood, cuts and even a deep gash in the diamond in its chest (Big give away to who it is XD).
The figure sees its day time and uses what magic it has left and reaches out to the one it knows most. "Sky Child…".
-=-Links Pov-=-
"Nice day to fly huh Zelda?" I ask. "Yea it is" replies Zelda. "So what d-". I stop mid-sentence from hearing a voice. "Sky Child…". I recognize that voice it was an old enemy but it sounded weak and sad. I stopped my bird, to Zelda's confusion, to listen to see if I could hear it again and I did "Sky Child…help me..". ~Ghirahim?~ I think. "Yes…Sky Child…come to..Sealed Grounds..hurry…fading..".
I turn my bird and look towards the Goddess Statue and fly there as fast as Crimson would go. Zelda was yelling at me to come back but I didn't. I wondered why I even listened but something about the way his voice sounded made me feel bad and rush there. I got Crimson to land. What I saw made me gasp and Zelda was about to yell at me but saw what I was looking at.
Ghirahim was lying in a small pool of blood and covered in cuts and even the diamond in his chest was shattered. He wasn't moving except for breathing and his eyes were closed. I took a step forward but Zelda grabbed my arm "don't go near him!" she whispers. I shrug her off and walk over to Ghirahim and set a hand on his shoulder but get no response, he doesn't wake or move at my touch, not even a flinch, and I get worried so I pull out a bottle with a fairy I saved and open it. The fairy heals him and he looks to be breathing easier and looks peaceful.
I slip my arms under him and pick him up and carry him back to Crimson, who was still on the ground, but as I get close to my loftwing he wakes and whispers "Thank you…Link". That surprised me cause he rarely calls me Link mostly Sky Child but I smiled and got on Crimson and flew heading back to Skyloft with a very enraged Zelda close behind.
-=-Ghirahim's Pov-=-
After the sky child helped me I told him thank you before passing out. Later I wake and I realize I'm in Link's room. I hear arguing near the door. "Why did you help him?! He almost got us killed and suddenly you help him?!" yells Zelda angrily. " He called out to me! What else was I supposed to do? Just leave him there to die? I'm a hero Hylia and hero's help those in need even if their the enemy." Link yelled back and I hear it go quiet then foot steps are heard going away from the door.
Link comes in the room to see me awake and rushes to the bed. "Hey are you feeling ok?" he asks and I say "Yea" but I suddenly start coughing a ton and Link looks worried. After I stop coughing I rest my head back. "You should get some rest Ghriahim" Link says to me and I nod then fall back asleep. I wake up to see Link come in the room with a bowl.
"Hey nice to see you awake I was going to wake you up to eat but I guess I don't have too." Link says and chuckles. I roll my eyes and eat the pumpkin soup he brought for me. He then unwraps my bandages and puts on clean ones then gives me another health potion, which I gladly drink down, and then lies me back down.(yes Ghirahim is this hurt X3 I did this for a reason) "Ghirahim go back to sleep I'll wake you up later ok?". I nod in response and fall back asleep.
-=-Ghirahim's Dream Lily and Ghirahim are 7-=-
"Hey Ghirahim come play!" I hear Lily my sister yell. "K coming sis!" I call back. I close the book I was reading and head outside. Lily is holding 2 sticks and I smile, Lily loves training even if she can never become a warrior, cause she's a girl, but she still wants to learn how to fight just in case we need to protect others or ourselves. I walk up to her, grab the stick she was offering to me and we head to our little training area nearby.
The training area was a little clearing surrounded by a fence in a forest next to our home, it had flowers and vines at the edge, and we got started training. After a few minutes of training we hear screams in the village. We both look at each other and race back home only to find it in flames. Lily gasps and points and when I look where she was pointing my breath and heart stopped. Our parents were lying on the ground dead and I silently cried while Lily was clinging on to me crying.
Suddenly I hear hoof steps and I look to my right and gasp then grab Lily and pull her behind me to protect her. The creature got off the demon horse and when I saw its eyes I gasped again but softer. It had red eyes and a red fiery mane-like hair (Hint hint XD). He walks toward us and I back up protecting Lily trying to comfort her, trying to say we are going to be ok, that we are going to make it out alive. Suddenly he zips toward us and smacks me in the head, making me stumble sideways, dazing me.
Lily screams but it suddenly gets cut off and my blood turns cold when she falls silent. I snap out of my daze and my eyes widen when I see his sword covered in blood. I stand there frozen with fear, crying and I wait for him to kill me. I close my eyes waiting, I hear him move close but the blow never came instead I feel a hand close around my neck. My eyes snap open and I stare into his blood red eyes with my own 2 golden fearful ones.
He chuckles when he sees my fear "Don't worry your lucky I'm willing to spare your life" he says darkly. He then picks me up and drags me to a carriage, that I hadn't seen come up the hill, he opens a cage and tosses me in it, I scream when I smack on the bars hard, breaking my arm in the process. I slowly get up to sit and I hear whimpers and see other kids of many different ages in cages near me, all of them crying and bleeding. 'My name is Ghirahim…I'm age 7...have sand-colored skin, pointed ears and golden eyes…' I think to myself, trying to keep calm. 'My family is…Lily, Moon (dad) and Star (mom)…' I start sobbing and can't stay calm any longer. Then I see stars and I try to remain awake but black out.
-=-Location: Skyloft: Link's Room-=-
I wake up with a start and jolt upright and is panting heavily. Link is nowhere in the room and at that moment I needed comfort so I cry silently and curl my legs till there against my chest and wrap my arms around them. I slowly rock back and forth trying to settle my nerves as I close my eyes. After a few minutes I hear footsteps, I hear the door open but keep my eyes closed. "Ghirahim?! What's wrong?" I hear Link ask. I look up and he rushes to me and holds me and I start crying openly as I bury my face in his chest. Link rocks me back in forth in a soothing way and I settle down but I hear more footsteps and hear a small gasp. "What happened?" I hear Zelda ask, "I don't know I just found him crying and he won't talk yet" replies Link still rocking me back in forth.
-=-3rd Person 10 weeks later-=-
It has been weeks since he had a visit to his past and Zelda didn't mind him being in Skyloft anymore, luckily, plus he was fully healed but he stayed at Skyloft because he enjoyed it there(though he wanted a loftwing badly XD). Ghirahim hadn't told them what had made him so upset, all he told them is that he had a nightmare and it scared him. In reality he saw his past and it scared him bad. 'What am I going to do…' Ghirahim thinks to himself. It was night and everyone was in bed but he wanted to stay up for fear of having another visit to his past. While thinking his mind wanders to Link and how he looks. 'Link is so cute...Wait what am I thinking!' Ghirahim face palms and rests his head on his hand. 'This isn't me…what's going on…' Ghirahim gives up and decides to go check up on Link. Ghirahim teleports into Link's room and watches him for a bit then gets closer and looks at him. 'He's really cute up close…' he thinks. Ghirahim then leaves and goes to bed.
-=-Ghirahim's Dream-=-
I wake up to see I'm in a cell, I look around but wince in pain and I remember I had a broken arm. After looking around I hear loud footsteps heading towards me. I back up, holding my broken arm, into a wall and look at the bars fearfully. The creature comes in view and it's a person holding a tray with food and water. "Master said for me to give you something to eat and to fix your arm" He said. "How do I know it isn't poisoned" I snapped angrily. "Kid if it were poisoned then wouldn't you think that Master would have killed you instead of capturing you?" the servant says. I thought about that for a few seconds "I guess…" I said unsure of myself. "Eat kid cause after this you're being brought to my master" he said and I listened and ate the food then after he healed my arm. He put a collar on me and I hated it but I followed him and when we got at a huge set of doors I shivered, knowing what was behind it, and I started to freak out. "Quit fighting kid!" he whispered harshly I quit fearfully then the doors opened and I saw him. I was dragged to him, the servant handed the chain to him and the dark energy I felt from him scared me bad. "Hello child" he said and I shivered. He chuckled when I shivered and asked me one question "Will you join the dark side willingly?". I froze, not knowing what to say then I looked at him, a fire in my eyes, and said my answer. "No". Suddenly I got tossed to the floor and then held up a few inches above the ground by red circles around my ankles and wrists. I look at him fearfully. "Wrong answer kid" he growls and pulls out a slender rod that is hollow. A dart gun I realize and he puts a dart in it. I start panicking and tug at my restraints. He smirks at me and says "Welcome to the dark side Ghirahim". I look at him in shock when he says my name but it doesn't last long. He shoots the dart and I feel a searing pain. The sound of my bones crunching and cracking, flesh ripping and tearing and bleeding, me screaming in pain, teeth turning sharp, my skin turning metal and white, my eyes stay golden but then that's when I went limp. My insides turning to metal and my heart stopped. I was set down. The transformation was complete, I was full grown but taller, my memory was wiped and all I knew was anger, bloodshed, lust for killing and that my master was Master Demise. I opened my eyes and said "Hello Master" and he roared with laughter.
I wake up panting and roll off my bed crashing into my bedside table knocking stuff over causing a lot of sound. I hear fast footsteps and I curl up on the floor and cry. Link comes in my room and rushes to my side, Zelda does as well and when Link picks me up I cry into his chest. "What happened Ghirahim?" Link asks. I don't answer all I do is sob. Zelda looks at me and thinks then leaves the room. Link stays to comfort me and I fall asleep in his arms.
