"Keep it up, Medoh," Revali said, as Guardians followed Vah Medoh, soaring through the sky. Vah Medoh swooped and ducked past the mountains of Herba, flapping its mechanical wings. Guardians aimed red lasers at Vah Medoh, taking shot after shot. Revali stood, piloting Vah Medoh with a confidant smirk. "Ganon must really work on his battle plans if he wishes to win against me," He chuckled to himself. At that moment, something hit Vah Medoh's side. Vah Medoh shook, letting out a small cry. "Easy, Medoh" Revali said, looking at his Sheika Slate. A Guardian had shot one of Vah Medoh's wing blades off. Vah Medoh's left wing began to sink downwards, losing the updraft of the propeller blades. Revali used the Sheika Slate to pivot Vah Medoh's bad wing up slightly. "You're alright, Medoh. We just have to keep going." Something else struck Vah Medoh's other side, the impact causing the Sheika Slate to fly out of Revali's hands. Revali grabbed the Sheika Slate and opened the top part of Revali. He grabbed the Great Eagle Bow from his back and flew up to the top. He landed at the main control terminal and tried to fix some of the damage. He caught sight of something in the corner of his eye. He looked to see a cloud of thick malice land right in front of him, taking the shape of a being. "Oh, I didn't expect an actual fight from Ganon. After all, very few can achieve a mastery of the sky." Revali said, staring into the thing's Guardian like eye.
"Teba! What are you doing outside?!" Teba's mom shouted. "Come inside right now! It's not safe outside during the fight!"
"But Mom, I wanna see Dad fight!" Teba pouted, as he was being pulled inside by his mom.
"It's too dangerous to be out here, Teba. I asked you to stay inside," she said, leading him inside.
"You never let me watch Dad fight! You don't even let me watch him at the Flight Range!" Teba complained, crossing his wings.
"I just don't want you to get hurt," his mom said.
"Dad always told me that one day, he'd make a bow for me. He told me that he would teach me to be just like him! But you never let me go to the Flight Range!"
"Teba, your father has been working on a bow for you for some time. I told him that I would let you go to the Flight Range when you were older," Teba's mom stated.
"But Mom! I'm seven years old. That should be enough!" Teba shouted.
"Teba, I'm not going to fight with you. You are staying inside and that's final," his mom said, folding her wings. Teba sighed angrily and went to his room.
Revali took a good look at the beast that stood in front of him. He came to realization that this was the Wind Blight Ganon. He chuckled to himself. "Wow, I can't believe he sent the wind blight. It's like he's trying to mock me." The wind blight drew out a weapon that looked like a futuristic blaster. It aimed it at Revali, setting a target on him. Revali took out his Eagle Bow and took aim at the creature's eye. He shot the creature, knocking it down. It puts its hands over its eye in pain. Revali smirked with confidence and took charge at the creature. Before he could get another shot, however, the creature got up and slashed a malice claw at him, knocking him back. Revali quickly got up, just in time to dodge a shot from the blaster. The creature took the shape and form of a twister. It flew towards Revali, blowing him back with the ever growing force. Revali crouched down and then jumped up, spinning his wings to create an updraft known to the Rito as "Revali's Gale." He took out his bow in midair, and took aim. He closed his left eye to get a better aim, then he shot another arrow at the wind blight. This got its attention, making it fly into the air and try to grab Revali. Revali, however, was dodging its claws with minor flight skills. Every now and then, he took a shot at the beast with his bow. The beast roared in anger and dove at Revali as he was aiming another arrow at its eye. Revali tried to dodge the attack, but the wind blight grabbed him with the malice claw. Revali struggled, trying to get free. His Eagle Bow slipping from his back. He tried to grab it, but the wind blight held him tighter. He watched as his bow slid off his back and onto the floor. The wind blight threw Revali to the side. Revali sat up and coughed. The wind blight picked up the Eagle Bow and studied it. Revali got up to retrieve his weapon, but he was too late. The wind blight threw his bow towards Rito Village. Revali spread his wings and dived to catch the bow. He tucked his wings in to gain speed. He fell freely, getting closer and closer to his bow. He reached a hand out to grab it. With a flash of blue light, something hit him. He flapped his wings to maintain altitude as he looked back. The wind blight was aiming the blaster at him. Revali spread his wings to catch himself. He closed his eyes and created and updraft to get back onto Vah Medoh. His left wing had been badly hurt. It twisted and jutted out, the bone clearly being broken. Revali sighed as the wind blight aimed its blaster at his face. "You may have achieved this win over me, Ganon, but you will never achieve a mastery of the sky," he said, as he closed his eyes… The wind blight lowered its blaster, letting out a cry of victory. It turned to face the main terminal of Vah Medoh. It quickly dove into the terminal, claiming its prize. Vah Medoh shrieked and sputtered. Its support blades quickly gave out and it plummeted towards Rito Village. As it was about to hit the peak of its perch, a newfound power spread through its body. It levitated back into the air, letting out a shriek of agony. Vah Medoh was no longer in control. Vah Medoh and Revali had been lost…
"Hey, Mom. Doesn't Dad only have one bow?" Teba asked, walking to the house.
"Teba! I told you to stay inside!" His mom yelled.
"But Mom, look!" Teba said, carrying the Great Eagle Bow.
"Teba, where did you get that? That's your father's bow."
"I just found it outside, Mom. I don't know where it came from," Teba said, looking at the bow. Teba's mother looked up at Vah Medoh, her wings clasped against her chest.
"R-Revali," she stuttered, hoping that her husband was okay. There was a knock on the door.
"May I please come in?" Kaneli's voice called. Teba's mom opened the door for Kaneli, and he stepped in. "I'm afraid I have come here with bad news," he said.
"Hello, Kaneli, sir," Teba said, shyly.
"Teba, sweetie, could you please go to your room?" Teba's mom said, trying to keep a straight face. Teba nodded, seeing the dread in his mother's eyes. He went to his room, only closing the door a little so he could hear.
"Kaneli, Teba found Revali's bow outside. What's going on?" Teba's mother asked.
"That's what I came here to tell you," Kaneli said. "Contact with Revali's Sheika Slate has stopped. Something has taken control of Vah Medoh. I'm sorry to say this, but I think Revali has… fallen."
"N-No. N-Not Revali!" Teba's mom said, tears falling down her cheeks. Teba heard this and was taken back. His father couldn't die! He was invincible! At least that's what Teba thought. He had always looked up to his father. He thought that his father could do anything! Teba's father always seemed so brave and bold to him, and Teba longed to grow up to be just like him. Teba pictured his father in his mind, smiling with confidence. Tears of pain fell from Teba's eyes and he clenched his fists. He had been lied to by his father. The one Rito who he thought could never fail, had fallen to Ganon. Teba jumped onto his bed and screamed into his pillow in anger and sadness.
"I believed in you, Dad!" He shouted, sniffling. "A-And you l-let me down…"
Revali sat up, groaning. He looked around. "Medoh?" He called out. A mutilated shriek was the response that he got. Revali sighed and stood up. "Well, Medoh. It looks like we're in a pretty bad situation," he said, talking more to himself than to Vah Medoh. Revali walked to the main terminal and placed a wing on it. "This was merely an unfair battle," he said. "It is not our fault that we lost." Just then, the Rito Village came into view from the window. Revali looked out the window and sighed. "Teba, I'm so sorry. I have failed you…" He said, leaning against the window. Revali thought about Link, and how he used to mock him for not being able to fly. "Link." He said, still staring out the window. "You can achieve a mastery of the sky. I know you can."
