Chapter seven

The duo, Fox and Cyrus stormed toward the Hylian's room. Cyrus didn't want to see another person die and see any more hearts get broken. He knew that Link loved Zelda as she did to Link but he was different. He had saved Hyrule more than once to bring peace for his lover. Fox slammed the door open to see Link in a corner obviously cold. Cyrus walked up to the fearful Hylian.

"Link? Are you okay?"

Link looked up to see Cyrus who looked like Roy. He gasped and got out his sword.

"That's not possible! Roy died!"

"Who said I was Roy? I'm Cyrus, I wielded Roy's courage to solve Roy and Young Link's murders. Can you help?"

"I... I can't," replied Link who was now staring out a window. Fox's emerald eyes looked out the window to see a full moon that was shining brightly, stars dancing to the melody of the wind. Cyrus stared at the moon and a memory struck him as though a brick had just hit him.

FlashBack

"Cyrus! Come on! I have to show you something."

Cyrus looked out the window to see one of his closest friends, Taylor. He ran toward the large oak door and opened it and saw the young girl. Her bandana on and her ruby red eyes gleaming with excitement.

"Is something wrong?"

"Nope! But look up there! It's the moon!" cheered Taylor as she jumped up and down. Cyrus looked confusingly at the bright moon.

"What about it?"

"Well you know that I have cancer and I'm don't have long to live but if I should leave this world, I'm going to the moon. Do you believe... in things like that?"

"Yeah. Sometimes it makes me thing that I can do anything. I promise if I leave this world too, I'll meet you in the milky way. Okay?"

Taylor smiled and embraced Cyrus in a lovable hug. He smiled and he looked at the moon, staring at its beauty.

End of FlashBack

Cyrus kept on looking at the moon. He didn't want to leave the world he was so used to even if his friend was up there. Link and Fox were staring at Cyrus by now and the young boy just sighed.

"Link... you don't have to help but can you keep your sword drawn just in case someone attacks. Trust me on this you need us to guard you. Fox came up with the pattern, and you're next. So... do you want to die or not?"

"No... I definately don't want to die!"

"Good. I'll stay in the room with you and Fox will guard outside. Okay Fox?"

"Y-yeah I guess that's okay. I mean what's the worse that can happen right?" asked Fox as he walked out the door and closed it shut, leaving the Hylian and the boy alone.

"So... what do we do until we get attacked?"

"To be truthful... I have absolutely no idea. I know... we'll just watch some TV."

"Yeah TV has all the answers right?"

"I'll try and find the remote. You just sit back and relax and I'll get it okay?"

Link nodded and leaned against the head boards to his bed. His green tunic seemed darker than ever. Cyrus bent over the bed looking for the remote, but it wasn't there.

"Link! Were is the remote?" asked Cyrus as he peered over his back and saw a shadowy figure with the Master Sword wielded in his hands. Link was in range of being strucked and Cyrus was afraid to move. The blade that banished evil was being lifted into the air and was about to fall on Link. Cyrus ran, full speed, toward the Hylian and moved him out of the way and the blade just missed.

"FOX! We're being attacked!"

"You mean the humanoid? He's knocked out. But we'll raise the stakes for your death, I'll kidnap you and you'll die trying to survive!"

The figure grabbed Cyrus' arms and he was teleported into a place that was dimly lit with candles. The figure appeared and said, "Surprise."

"I'm in trouble."
