Link and Dark Link's little adventure is so awesome...I put up this next chapter as fast as possible!! YAY!
Dark Link and Link had only been walking a couple of hours before it was completely light (red) again. Link was starting to come to like the red sky, but it was still hard to tell what time it was.
Dark Link talked nonstop about the good old days that Link never actually experienced. He smiled and nodded anyway. It made Dark Link happy. Link actually thought of Dark Link as more of a friend than an ally now. In the beginning, he had been hoping just to use Dark Link so he could reverse Vaati's spell. Now, he was glad to have Dark Link accompany him. Link sighed peacefully. In the right world, Vaati was lucky to have Dark Link accompany him.
No matter how much he denied it, he was the same as Link in every way. He was kind, spirited, and brave. He had the heart of a hero. So…why did he do bad things? Link looked at his cheery companion sorrowfully. If he wasn't such a villain, they could be friends. Best friends even…Of course, it would never be once everything was back to normal. Dark Link stopped his limp. Link stopped too. He looked up the road to see his main foe once again.
"Vaati, why are you here?" They asked. Vaati did not smile. He was scowling. He was angry. He was pissed. He walked over to Link and stabbed his finger on Link's chest.
"What did you do!?" He yelled.
"What?"
"Don't play games with me. I'm not in the mood!"
"I seriously have no idea what you're talking about."
Vaati turned his back on Link and walked back down the road. He looked at Link.
"I told you I was in no mood for games yet you continue to antagonize me. I should hang you for what you've done."
"For what I've done?" Link blinked. Dark Link shook his head.
"Exactly what did he do?"
"He has made Zelda bitterly sad! She won't leave her chambers! She's always crying! So, again I ask. WHAT DID YOU DO!?!!" His evil gaze fell upon Link. His red eyes were filled with fury and hate. Link shook his head.
"I only talked to her! I swear."
"What did you say?"
Link looked at Dark Link. He was looking at him. They stared at each other. Dark Link mouthed, "No." Link nodded.
"I just wished her happiness for your wedding."
"LIAR!!!!" Vaati turned deadly hurling fireballs and lightning balls every which way in anger.
"CALM DOWN!!" Link yelled. Vaati looked at Link harshly and lifted him in the air with magic alone. He brought him closer.
"You think you can stop this? You think you can thwart me, hero? Well, you're wrong. This is my world. In here, I'm the hero and you're the villain. I will marry Zelda, and I will kill you." He flung Link onto the ground and left via teleportation. Link stood up looking very serious.
"We have to hurry. We can't drag this on much longer. He'll probably move up the wedding date."
"Dammit…we have to hurry to Ganon now. He's also a sorcerer of sorts."
Link nodded. Dark Link gasped.
"You're bleeding. That bastard made you bleed!" Dark Link growled. Link calmed him down. There was no use in him getting fired up over something so trivial. The time for revenge was never. There was, however, a time for thinking smart. They needed a plan, and maybe Ganondorf could help them. Link grabbed Dark Link's arm and hurried up the dirt-covered road.
"We have to hurry!!" Link said limping faster.
Back at the castle...
Vaati huffed in anger. This was horrible. He had told Link everything that had happened except one thing. Zelda refused to see him now. This was bad. Whatever Link had said to her was really affecting her thinking. She was supposed to love him, Vaati, but now she was disgusted with him. Vaati growled. He would have to redo the spell and make her his forever. There was no way Link would be able to stop this. Vaati knew exactly what he would do. He would just mix a potion simple as that and give it to her to drink. Impossible. She wasn't seeing anyone right now, so there was no one to give it to her. So now what? Vaati stopped to ponder. An evil smile formed on his face. Zelda had to come out of her room for the wedding, correct? It was her duty as a princess to marry whomever her father, the King, wanted her to. So, he would slip the potion into her drink at the reception where she would fall back in love with him. Then after Vaati was secured in her heart, he would finish what he started and kill Link. Vaati chuckled evil and low. He was such a genius. He headed to the basement.
A dirt road somewhere...
They made it. There it was. The chamber of Ganon. It was a castle all in all. A dark, depressing, more than scary castle. There was nothing to fear. Link had been here just about as many times as he had with Vaati's castle. Dark Link nudged Link.
"Don't say anything about the color of his skin." Dark Link said. Link nodded. He knew very well to never insult Ganon. He was a monster when he was pissed. They took a deep breath and walked inside the castle. The first thing they saw was Ganon sitting at an organ. Maybe he had been playing? Well, they walked up to him.
"Uh…Doc?" Dark Link said. He just sat still. Link walked around and gasped.
"He's been turned to stone!!"
"By that damned Vaati, I bet!" He snarled. Link sighed in defeat.
"Now what? We can't fight in the shape we're in!"
"Allo gentlemen!!"
They both turned to see a man who had the head of a Christmas tree and a body that was clad in an armor that made him look fat. Dark Link and Link jumped back.
"AAGH!! FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT'S PURE AND HOLY!!!! WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU!??!?!!!" They yelled. The Christmas tree man waved his hands at them.
"There is nothing to fear but fear itself, yes?"
"What?" Dark Link said, a little frustrated at that.
"The fear is an illusion to kill you, no?"
"I'm sorry but…are you ill?" Link asked politely.
"Ah, that I am not. My name is Zant."
"You? You're Zant?" Dark Link said shocked out of his mind. Link shook his head too. He didn't remember Zant having a Christmas tree head. To tell the truth, he didn't remember Zant at all.
"Allo, are you two still in your heads?"
Dark Link turned to Link. He was obviously upset by the speech of Zant. It was strange.
"Can we go?" He begged. Link shook his head. They needed someone who could help them.
"We need to get helped. We are in no shape to…um…can I help you?"
Zant had his head thisclose to Link's ribs. Zant shook his head 'no.' Link took a step away from Zant but he recovered the lost space. Zant stuck his finger into the open wound. Link winced in pain and in fear. He had no idea what Zant was doing to him.
"You are quite injured, yes?"
"Um…yes?"
"Magnificant!"
"Magnifi-what!?"
Zant clapped his hands happily.
"C'est mon jour de chance!"
"WHAT!?!?!?" Dark Link and Link asked louder than necessary. They had no idea what was wrong with Zant. Zant was (it's my story so don't get upset about this) a Frenchman. He knew Midna quite well before he crossed over to the evil American side. He thought that France was a desperate country that would never go anywhere you see, so now he is Ganondorf's assistant of sorts.
Zant continued his happy clap still speaking in the language of love that the two 'heroes' knew nothing about.
"Je suis de chance! Je suis de chance! Je suis aujourd'hui!"
"FUCK WRONG WITH YOU!? SPEAK ENGLISH!!"
Zant stopped clapping and looked at Dark Link harshly. His eyes appeared to have a red tint to them. Dark Link froze in his tracks. Zant marched up right to him with a scowl on his face.
"Savez-vous qui as parler? Je suis le plus grand villain jamais a la gre'le, de France, vous somber de'pouille'es salaud!"
Dark Link took three steps away from the angered Frenchman. Link raised a brow.
"All I understood in that was 'plus', 'grand', 'villain', and 'France'…"
"So…he's French?"
"Yep. I think that's the language he's speaking…"
"Can you understand anything he said in French?"
"Um….he called you a bastard…"
"WHAT!? That French bastard! Give me something to say back to him!"
"I'm not that good at French…"
"Link, if you loved me like a brother, you would give me an insult in French."
"Fine, fine. Say…um…vous…odeur…lavande? I don't know…"
Dark Link turned back to Zant with a laugh.
"Ha! Vous Odeur Lavande!!" He barked. He yelled out because Zant grabbed him, pulling him into a bear hug that crushed Dark Link's already injured body. He yelled out for Zant to put him down.
"You are so kind with the words, yes? Yes!"
"Hey!" Link ran over to Zant and Dark. "Now that you're speaking English again, could we ask for some help?"
Ha ha. I love Zant being French. It's fun. And please don't be upset because the accents aren't actually above the words. My computer hates me. That's my excuse and I'm sticking with it! XD
