The War Begins
Chapter 2: The Dangerous Moment
Before Ganondorf could stab Link, and kill him, another figure jumped at Ganondorf. Link's eyes blurred, and fell into darkness.
He heard voices. He could've sworn one voice was the Hero of Time's voice. After moments of darkness, more voices went on. One was Orca's. Wait, that fragile voice belonged to his grandma, didn't it? Wasn't that Aryll? Were they all dead with him. Did Ganondorf kill them and take the island over? Was that the end? How did Ganondorf even come back?
"Big brother, Link, wake up," Aryll's voice went.
Link's eyes flickered, and then opened. "Ah, Ary" AH!"
"Don't speak too much, it'll enhance the pain!" Orca said quickly. "You were in a very dangerous situation, young one."
Link looked around. Joel and Zill were also there, and their mom and dad. Link tried speaking again, but moving his mouth as little as possible. "Aryll, Zill, Jo"-
"Keep silent," Orca said as Link screamed in pain again. Link's eyes started tearing. He hated this. He just wanted to truly die.
"Now, you were nearly killed, but luckily, someone else came to put a stop to it," Orca explained. "He refused to give his name, and was cloaked."
"Obviously it wa- AH!"
"I said, 'don't speak!'" Orca said impatiently.
"Link, you're mouth is supposed to be covered," said his grandma. "I took it off, so the doctor can feed you the liquid you need."
"Wha"- Link wanted to say 'what liquid, but decided he'd better not. He merely shrugged.
"It'll make you feel better, but it's risky," Orca said wisely. "This liquid can kill you as well, it might, but without, you'd die anyway."
Link stayed quiet, and could only widen his eyes, only to find out that hurt too.
"It makes you fall asleep, and then, if you're breath rate is working too slow while sleeping, which can happen when in a state like this, it could stop, and kill you," Orca continued.
Link looked over at Aryll, trying to catch her eye. He needed to say something. He needed to tell her to stay inside and not go out anymore. The world was in danger again.
The doctor came back in to give him the medicine. Link wanted to struggle as the pain of opening his mouth increased. The liquid was hot, but the effects were immediate. His eyes forced him back into darkness again. The heavy bandage was wrapped around his mouth again.
