Just a quick note to say that I am sooooooooo sorry about the wait and that this may be the crappyist chapter I have written and was by far the shortest but I just can't think of what to add, any ideas pm or put them in a review. This is a mostly lore and legend and figuring out the past chapter so it may be crappy but keep with me it will all be clear hopefully (or even more confusing!). Just so everyone knows I have nothing against gays, bis or is it bi's, Goths or gay Goths etc.
Don't worry you'll see
Anyway enjoy
Chapter 7
When Dark and Link (who was now going slightly hysterical) got back to Link's house it had been an hour since the end of school and link was close to a breakdown.
"I just don't get it!" Link shouted in frustration yet again
"It's relatively simple; a demon from your fathers past has come back and wants to eat your babies. See simple." Replied Dark
"Wait you never mentioned my dad before, how do you know my dad?"
"Oh he uhh… is a umm… an old friend…" said Dark, clearly not comfortable with the subject, "I will… tell you more about him later…"
"Right… anyway back to the story of the demon." Link said
"Right, the demon is evil and it is calling all the creatures it can get to aid it on its quest to kill you and Aryll." Dark summed up
"Why does it want to kill me? I thought evil things wanted world domination or something." Link asked, trying to understand what he could have possibly done to wrong a demon
"Well world domination is probably near the top of it's to do list, Marshy is at the top of mine!" said Dark with his shark like grin, "Anyway it wants to kill you and Aryll because it wants to wipe out the Hero of Time's bloodline."
"So does that make me and Aryll relatives of the Hero of Time?" Link asked, looking at Dark with an awed expression
"Yes." Dark said, nodding, happy that they were making progress in the conversation
"Okay… so what did my father do to make it so pissed?" Link wondered out loud
"I'm not sure if I'm allowed to tell you that." Dark said, more to himself than to Link
"What! Does that mean that you're working for someone? Who?" Link asked, giving Dark a nervous glance
"Well technically I'm a shadow so Ganondorf originally but he disappeared so now umm… I'm not sure how to put this but your father." Dark said honestly
"What the…" with that Link fell to the floor the concentrated knowledge overwhelming him
When Link woke up Aryll was back and Dark and her were talking to each other on the sofa
"Wow, so let me get this straight you're a shadow." Aryll was saying
"Yup." Replied Dark, nodding
"And were one of Ganondorf's minions." Aryll said
"Yes, but I never liked the guy and besides he is biding his time waiting until he is strong enough to manifest into a proper body after his last thrashing." Dark said, smiling as if remembering a fond memory
"Right so you're not evil." Aryll said
"Yup not evil in fact I'm helping your dad by protecting you." Dark said, nodding again
"Wow so you've met our parents?" Aryll asked
"Well I have only met your dad but I'm sure your mum is cool enough." Dark said
"Awesome!" Aryll said
"How come you're taking this so well?" asked Link, sitting up
"Oh I didn't realise you were awake." Aryll said, putting her arm around her brother
"Yeah but seriously I totally freaked!" said Link
"You do that a lot anyway." Said Dark, "After all you're a huge drama queen!"
"Am not…" Link muttered defensively
"Yeah you are." Said Aryll, "But anyway I kind of guessed that he wasn't normal, after all his eyes glow in the dark and he is just a darker version of you after all you look the same."
"We do?" asked Link more to himself than anyone else. He then looked over at Dark and knew why he had recognised him from somewhere the moment they had met, the face he was looking at was the same face he saw in the mirror every day.
"Yeah after all since I'm a shadow I can take on any form so I copied yours, painted it a little and made it better!" Dark grinned
"If you call looking like a gay Goth better!?" Link said, slightly insulted, Link felt that he was the best version of himself
"I don't and besides it can't be worse than a bi who has mental breakdowns all the time." Dark retorted
"I'm not bi!" Link exclaimed
"Yes you are! Your less fussy than me!" Dark said, laughing
"No I'm not!" Link said, crossing his arms and pouting
"Right you keep telling yourself that!" Dark said
"Shut up both of you!" interrupted Aryll, she could see this couldn't end well for anyone, "Anyway do you know what this creature's name is?" asked Aryll trying to steer the conversation back to the original topic
"I do indeed!" Dark said
When Aryll realised Dark wasn't going to continue she asked, "Will you tell us?"
"Yup!" Dark said
After another pause Link said, "Well go on then!"
"Fine the demon's name is Majora." Dark said
"Majora." Repeated link trying to remember what, if anything he had learned about this creature in ancient history class
"Is that the one that is also a mask?" asked Aryll
"That's the one!" said Dark
"I remember, the Hero of Time went to Termina and he collected lots of masks with magic abilities including the Fierce Deity mask. He awakened the four giants and they helped him defeat Majora. Maybe the giants can help us."
"Good plan but even giants don't live forever, they died ages ago." Said Aryll
"How do you know that?" Link asked, looking surprised by his sister's knowledge
"I read." She said simply
"Do you two know which legendary artefact the hero used when on his quest to stop Majora?" said Dark to test the siblings' knowledge rather than an actual question
"Wasn't it the Fierce Deity mask?" asked Link (having fallen asleep in that lesson)
"No no it was the Ocarina of Time." Said Aryll, at this Dark smirked
"Guess you fell asleep in that class, hey Link. But anyway you're right it was the Ocarina of Time."
"I can play the ocarina." Link said quietly
"Really when did you learn to play, I've never heard you." Asked Aryll
"Well Saria gave me one as a present a couple of years back and I have been playing it while you were out so that it didn't interrupt anything." Link said, looking at his feet, a little embarrassed by the whole situation
"Aww how thoughtful." said Dark still grinning, "I think from now on you should be called fairy boy!"
"Why thank you but I'm afraid I'll have to decline your offer." Link said, shooting Dark a glare
"It wasn't an offer." Grinned Dark
"Why don't you play us a piece?" Said Aryll, making it sound as though this was a command rather than a suggestion
"Oh goodie!" said Dark, clapping his hands together
Link sighed but said fine and went upstairs to fetch his ocarina. The ocarina in question was wooden with a strange green part near the mouth piece. It was an elegant instrument which Link had grown to like more and more he was also reminded of the first day he met Saria and Sheik and the friendship they shared.
Link was disturbed from his sentimental sappiness by the sound of Dark shouting "Hurry up!" from downstairs
"Coming!" Link shouted back grabbing a piece of paper as he did so
"Ah here he is." Said Aryll, "Come on then what are you playing?"
"I am going to play a song that I call Saria's song because she wrote it but it has no official name, it was the first song I learnt." And with that Link lifted the ocarina to his mouth and started playing the upbeat song that Saria had written at the age of eleven
"Wow your good at that!" Came the surprised voice of Dark once Link had finished
"Yeah." Agreed Aryll, smiling at her brother who had gone bright red
"Yeah well as I said Saria taught me so it's her musical skill not my own." Link shrugged
"Yeah that makes more sense." Dark said
"Hey!" Link said
"Shut up both of you, Farore give me strength what is wrong with you guys today!" interrupted Aryll, "Dark you said that you had known our father, how did you know him?"
"He umm… got me out of the shadow plain." Dark said
"Wow." Link said
"Yeah," Dark agreed
"What was he like?" Aryll asked, trying to picture her father
"He was a brilliant warrior it was spectacular to watch him fight and he had a title that I uh… can't remember but you wouldn't have heard his real name…" Dark said
"Why?" Link asked
"I told you already he used a title and only a few people knew his name." Dark said
"Oh. Well that's disappointing." Link said, looking a little disappointed
"Hey Dark what did you do with Clyde while you were at school?" Aryll asked
"I kept him in his cage and put that in my rucksack." Said Dark, opening his rucksack and taking out the cage with Clyde in, Clyde instantly hissed at Link and fired a small rock at him
"Oww…" said Link, rubbing his arm
"Sorry he is bred to hate heroes so you know he dislikes you, but I'm sure you could tame him a bit then he'd be fine." Dark said, looking down fondly at his pet
"Right… oh yeah I've been meaning to ask why did you randomly get up and sing in the middle of class?" Link asked, thinking back to the incident in question
"Oh yeah that was Clyde's fault; he started growling at you because I left my rucksack slightly open for him to breath." Dark said casually
"Oh that explains a lot and just to be clear we can't become delusional preachers shouting about monsters and the end of the world." Link told Dark
"Nice idea but however fun that sounds I'm afraid we probably shouldn't do that." Dark said, smiling sadly as if he was genuinely disappointed that he couldn't do this
"Wow Dark you have really matured." Aryll said
"Na it's just I was told not to scare the shit out of too many people." Dark said
"Knew it." Link said
When Zelda got back to her house and flopped on her bed "Why? Why did I have to get involved? Dark could have handled it and now I have to find a way of telling Link that his best friend was made up by me in an attempt to live a little. Why am I such an idiot?"
Zelda was interrupted in her ramblings by a knock at the door "Come in." she said and the door swung open to reveal Impa
"Miss Zelda, is it time?" Impa asked
"Yes I think it is, we must spend much more time training in order to prepare." Zelda answered
"I think that's wise, oh and one more thing," Impa said
"Yes?" Zelda asked
"Tell him," Impa said, looking at Zelda sternly
"Tell who what?" Zelda asked with a perplexed expression on his face
"Sheik," Impa said flatly and Zelda stared at her, how had she known and how long had she known for
"How… I…" Zelda stuttered, struggling to find the words
"You didn't really think that I wouldn't find out, I found out on the second day you tried; when you were ten years old." And with that Impa strode out of the room leaving a very confused Zelda
Dark had insisted on staying the night despite all Links swearing. Link knew there was nothing he could do to stop him; Dark was on a mission and he was going to see it through.
"Fine, you can stay but make sure Clyde does not get near my room or I swear to Din I will end it and you!" Link said
"I'm a shadow…" said Dark
"So…" Link said not following
"It's hard to kill me" Link promptly punched Dark
"Right well you can sleep in the basement," said Aryll, leading him downstairs and showing him where stuff was, "And if you ever set one foot in my room without my permission I will kick you so hard where it counts you get a sex change!"
"Duly noted miss," Dark replied, looking confused and worried at the prospect
"Same goes here Dark!" Shouted Link from upstairs, then Link's phone started ringing, he dug it out of his pocket and saw it was Sheik so answered, "Hi Sheik, what's up?"
"Hey Link it's just well I need to speak to you," Sheik said, sounding conflicted
"What's wrong? Is it about earlier?" Link asked
"It's… well… I need to tell you in person…" Sheik said
"Right, when and where?" Link asked, worried by Sheik's tone
"Hmm… Kakiriko park at six meet me by the main entrance," and with that Sheik hung up leaving Link to wonder what was wrong
A/n
Sorry about the gazillion year wait but this was a bitch added onto the fact I had exams and watching the LoZ cartoon was pretty distracting and disturbing
Ganon is a retarded armadillo and Link is a Perv
Look it up on the internet it is complete lolage if you take it as a joke if you take it any other way you will probably get really depressed and commit suicide
But anyway soooooo sorry about wait normally when people have these massive breaks they have written like 20 million chapters but I'm afraid I have only managed this crapshack of a chapter.
Whenever I rule the world I am going to hang this chapter by its ears and poke it with sticks.
OMG I can take down the sticky note that says do more of Lfls chap 7 YAY
Anyways please review insults; no one would blame you, help, advice, compliments (if any) or anything else
That's all for now folks
C ya l8r
A/N (2)
I've added this A/N on because I have added 500 words or so onto my first attempt at this chapter
Ok down to business I just want to say it has been almost a year since my last post and I had lots of problems with this
My computer actually got wiped which is what put me off continuing but I have been making edits to all the chapters I have done and then changing them back and swearing at myself repeatedly but there are small differences in all of the chapters but this one I could not live with so I added a bit that was probably unnecessary and has possibly ruined my idea of chapter eight but you know that's life
Oh and another thing I was just reading reviews from a couple of chapters ago and yes Armadillo (Nice name) it was a science fair reference well spotted!
Anyway sorry about the year long wait and this is just me saying I am not dead and neither is LFLS!
