Chapter 1.

Link slowly crawled to his feet. The light spirit Lanayru had transported him and Midna away from Zant.

Midna was lying a few feet away, all the color gone from her body.

"Link…get us to Zelda…hurry…" she squeaked.

Link, who realized that he was in wolf form again, slowly pulled her onto his back, howled loudly, and headed towards Hyrule castle sewers.

Meanwhile, In the Twilight Castle, Zant smiled. He now had the power of the sorcerers of legend. He could do anything he wanted. Even eliminate this "Link" from the game. He muttered a few words in Twili, and Twilight demons appeared.

"Do not let them reach the princess."

Zelda's door burst open, and Link came barging in.

"Link? Wha—Midna…"

Link lay Midna down on Zelda's bed, and let Zelda work her princess mojo.

"Link," said Zelda, "I don't think there's anything I can do."

Link growled softly. Midna coughed from the bed.

"L-Link, go to the sacred grove in Faron…you'll find the Master Sword, only its magic can return you to normal."

Zelda walked over to him, and laid a hand on his head.

"Go, Link… I'll watch over her."

Link left Hyrule with single thought in his head: Save Midna
