Opia: Another story... whoo... And the "what if..." for this story is.... What if there was more than one set of sages? Now wasn't that hard to figure out? Yep, this one's pretty straightforward... might change the title though...

Cari: Opia doesn't own anything in this story other than Kindra and story plots.........

Secondary Sages ch.1 More Sages?!?

Rauru gazed at the other sages, who stared intently back. After a few moments of silence Nabooru spoke up. "Why have you summoned us Rauru?"

The Sage of Light wrung his fingers nervously. "I have summoned you all here to the Chamber of Sages because there is a problem…."

Ruto rolled her eyes, "We figured that!"

"Tell us what is wrong." Impa's stony gaze pierced through Rauru.

He coughed, "Evil spirits are stirring again."

"I thought we were doing pretty well at keeping them secure." Saria said.

"Unfortunately," Rauru said, "Our powers are not strong enough to keep these spirits at bay."

"Not strong enough?" Darunia thundered, "Then what can stop the evil from being unleashed?"

Rauru held up his hand, "There is one more person I need to call before I can answer that." He closed his eyes. "Link… Hero of Time… Answer my call… come…" The triforce symbol began to glow. In the light a figure began to form. As Link came into view a voice was heard.

"I told you Link! You just can't barge into other… people's… houses?" A girl showed up beside Link. She had straight brown hair that, when it reached her shoulders, waved and turned turquoise down to the middle of her back. Her green eyes shone in confusion as she looked around. "Where?…"

Link blinked as he realized where he was. Turning to the Sage of Light he said, "Rauru? Why am I here?"

Saria laughed, "I'm more interested in how Kindra got here!"

The brown haired girl whirled around at the mention of her name. "Saria?"

Rauru raised an eyebrow, "You know this girl?"

"Yes. We found her in the woods one day." The Forest Sage smiled at Kindra. "It's nice to see you again."

"Y-yeah… Hi." Kindra looked pleadingly at Link, "Where are we?"

"In the Chamber of Sages." He answered.

"Where's that?"

Rauru cleared his throat. "Well, I don't know how you got here, but that is not important at the moment." He turned to Link. "I brought you here because we need your services once again."

Link sighed, "What's wrong this time?"

"Our powers cannot contain the evils much longer."

"So how am I supposed to help?"

"You have to find the other sages."

Gasps echoed around the room, "Other Sages?!"

"I thought we were all the sages!" Ruto squeaked.

"The only primary sages, yes. But there are others." Six small platforms rose up from the depths and placed themselves in-between the sages. Each platform rose a few inches above the floor. A medallion, slightly smaller than the ones of the primary sages, was pictured on each platform. "Behold! The seats of the Secondary Sages, The Sage of Earth…" Rauru pointed to a brownish-green medallion that shone between Saria and Darunia. "The Sage of Rock..." Between Darunia and Ruto a brown medallion glowed. "The Sage of Ice…" He pointed to a sparkling off-white blue medallion. "The Sage of Darkness…" A black medallion glittered menacingly in-between Impa and Nabooru. "The Sage of Wind…" A gray medallion flashed. "And lastly… the Sage of Lightning." The gold medallion sparked next to Rauru and Saria. "Your job, Link, is to find these sages and take them to their respective temples. The temples have been calling to them for some time now. The sages will be restless, subconsciously being drawn to their temple."

"Where are these temples?" Link asked. "I never saw them on my travels."

"They are well hidden, but you have already been at the doors of all but two of them. You will find the doors to the Earth Temple in the lair of Ghoma in the Great Deku Tree dungeon. The door to the Rock Temple is where you killed King Dodongo. You know the room where you fought the White Wolfo in the Ice Cavern? That is where you'll find the Ice Temple. Remember Kakariko Well? You'll find the Dark Temple where you obtained then lens of truth. The other two are up in the sky, I doubt you've been up there…"

"Does flying with Kaepora Gaebora count?" Link smirked.

Rauru ignored him, "Find the Sages and awaken them. I fear we do not have much time before the evil spirits break our hold. Ganondorf might even be able to break free. We will help you as much as we can. Go now!"

Link nodded and disappeared in a flash of light along with the still confused and terrified Kindra.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

Floating in a white void, the male Gerudo, Ganondorf, stirred. He opened his eyes and looked about him, trying to find what had disturbed his eternal rest. Small at first, but growing with every second, shadows began to swirl around the King of Evil. He laughed, "I think it is about time for my revenge."
