"Wistil we need you now…" Traan said. Wistil rose out of bed looking annoyed.
"What is it, Traan!?" She snapped "You know I don't like getting woken up early in the morning."
"I require your help to free Ganondorf now."
"Urgh…don't pester me about that, I will do it when I feel li-"
"No, Traan's right we need you now!" Freet called from the entrance.
"Why is that?" Wistil asked.
"We've been found; I think they're sending reinforcements soon." Wistil sighed at this.
"Very well…let's get started."
"Ok…let me concentrate then…" Traan said, closing his eyes. He concentrated on the man he wanted to free. Are you ready to release me from my prison? 'Yes' Traan thought. Good…let me show you my location… Traan suddenly saw himself standing next to a statue, he was underwater. The statue had two swords and there was a skeleton nearby. Wistil and Freet were there with him; neither was holding their breath and didn't seem to understand why he was. This isn't real. 'Are you the dead skeleton?' Traan thought. NO! I am the statue…I am IN the statue…release me…and you will have your wish.
"Wistil free the man in stone!" Traan said.
"What? What man in stone?" Wistil asked. Only you can see me…show your thoughts to the girl…have her free me…..without the stone. Traan went to Wistil and put a finger to her forehead.
"Do you see him now?" Traan asked.
"Yes." Wistil replied
"Warp him here…but not the stone." Wistil nodded. There was a flash of bright light, suddenly the vision Traan was having was gone and a red haired man appeared before him. He had a beard and was wearing dark robes. His skin had a strange dark greenish look to it. Traan could tell already that he didn't like this man…but he needed him.
"Grant me my wish!" Traan commanded.
"You need the treasures help, not mine. Allow me to get it for you…"
"How can I trust you? Why can't I get it myself?" Traan asked
"Because only I can enter the realm and get the treasure." Ganondorf replied. Traan couldn't make any sense of this at all. He opened his mouth to argue and Ganondorf spoke again "Let me use your sisters powers or you won't get the treasure." Traan sighed.
"Go on, Wistil…do it." Traan ordered. He was beginning to like this man less and less. Wistil joined hands with Ganondorf as he concentrated on the location he wanted to go. Wistil hated the feel of his rough hands and looked disgusted. Suddenly Ganondorf left in a ball of blue light. Ganondorf was in the Sacred Realm… he had to admit he couldn't have gotten here without them. The Lokomo were known for their amazing ability of transportation. Something Ganondorf was not quite as skilled at. Ganondorf looked and looked. The Triforce had to be around here somewhere, the wish was made; it was supposed to go back to the Sacred Realm. Ganondorf spotted the temple of light, to his amazement it was still in perfect condition. He went through, spotting the chamber of long dead sages. In the middle of the chamber was the Triforce. Ganondorf grinned; with this he wouldn't need those kids. With this his wish would be granted. Ganondorf went out to touch it…he grabbed it. Then…it broke. For the 2nd time in Ganondorfs life, the Triforce split. The three pieces disappeared, only one appearing in Ganondorfs hand. The Triforce of power…but where were the others? Perhaps…he could take over Hyrule with this power alone…it was possible. He needed those kids to get back though. Back in the desert Traan heard a furious voice speak to him. Take me back! Take me back, now!
"Hmph…Wistil bring him back." Traan said.
"I don't know…we could leave him there…maybe this isn't such a good idea."
"You said you would do it!" Traan roared. "You will help me grant my wish, Wistil! I will rule Hyrule!"
"Make me!" Wistil said
"Wistil we need that mans help, were going to be under attack. Please bring him back!" Freet said
"Fine!" Wistil shouted. She moved her hand in front of her, thinking of the area she saw Ganondorf go and he appeared again. He was silent.
"Grant me my wish already, old man!" Traan commanded. Wistil stared at Traan in shock, wondering how he could say that. She was too scared to speak, the aura around this man and his deadly eyes scared her. However when he spoke his voice was gentle.
"You are ready for your wish? Very well…please come here and I will grant it." There was an insane grin on Traan's face as he moved in front of Ganondorf who stretched his hand out. "Thank you for releasing me…now your reward!" a dark energy enveloped the hand and the spell that blasted from it hit Traan who flew back and collapsed on the ground.
"Traan!" Freet yelled running to his fallen friend and checking on his condition.
"Don't worry about him…he's still of use to me." Ganondorf said calmly walking to Traan.
"W-what…is the meaning…of this!?" Traan asked weakly.
"You should have known better you ridiculous buffoon." Ganondorf said. For some reason there was something about what he said that seemed to stir up something in Traan's mind, as if it were a long forgotten memory. "You're a fool, you think you are strong…but you are weak…weak in comparison to one who is truly worthy of wielding the Gods power." Traan tried to say something but couldn't manage. "Don't worry…I won't kill you, you see I am new to this world. I only know a few select things from you…such as the Lokomo's powers…and…other things."
"Lokomo…?"
"The race you pride yourself in being, the being that separates you from…heh… 'humans'. You lack information is some ways…like your ignorance of the term Hylian. However there are things I want to know before I try to conquer this land. For starters, tell me its name."
"I w-won't give you anything…" Traan said angrily from the floor. "I-I w-will KILL YOU!" He shouted standing; he drew his sword in his right hand and charged at Ganondorf as fast as he could run. Ganondorf casually back handed Traan's face which was strong enough to spin him around. Ganondorf then kicked out at Traan which sent him flying seven feet into the wall.
"TRAAN!" Wistil screamed as she and Freet ran over to him.
"Hmph…you set too much pride in yourself…you are weak. Now tell me what I want to know."
"NO!" Traan shouted defiantly.
"It's a wonder you can even speak properly…perhaps I went too easy on you." Ganondorf sighed and then clapped his hands. Dark ropes flew from midair and tied Wistil up. They then brought her to Ganondorf where he easily held her in one hand. Still tied up, Wistil struggled and turned blue at points, but not long.
"You can't fight it…" Ganondorf said. "Your transportation power will have no effect while in these bindings." Ganondorf bent down where he had hit Traan and picked up his sword.
"Tell me the information I want to know…" Ganondorf said softly "As I said…I examined your spirit and have some interesting info…but not enough. Answer all my questions and I will answer a question I know you want answered…your so called 'memory of the past.'"
"Not worth it." Traan said stubbornly "Kill me if you want…I'm not helping you."
"You're as naïve as you are trusting, I won't kill you…but your…'sister' isn't as lucky."
"Put her down you cowardly pig!" Traan yelled. Ganondorf chuckled…pig; it was quite funny when you thought about it.
"I won't take her life as long as you do everything I say…please me enough and I release her." Traan glared at this man, and then accepted defeat.
"Fine…what is it you want to know."
"First the lands name. I can't find answers like that in ones spirit, and you have only described the land to me so I could help you with your thieving. What is the lands name?"
"Hyrule." Traan answered
"Hyrule…? That's impossible."
"You asked a question and you have your answer! Now let her go!"
"I'm not done yet…who's your leader?"
"I have no leader."
"Don't be foolish…I meant the leader of the land."
"A princess…Zelda." Traan answered. Ganondorf scowled.
"Are you playing a game with me, boy? If you value your sister's life you will tell me the truth."
"He is telling the truth!" Wistil said. "Please…please believe him and let me go!"
"Then tell answer my questions truthfully!"
"I am, OK? The only other name we have had for a leader is Tetra! Her daughter and granddaughter are both Zelda!"
"Tetra?" Ganondorf asked, trying to remember if this was the name of the princess who beat him last time.
"Yes, Tetra! Is that the name you wanted to hear?" Traan yelled at him.
"Traan…maybe you should show some more respect…" Freet began but Traan cut him off
"RESPECT!? Look at this coward! He's using my defenseless sister as a hostage and sneak attacked me! I spit at him! He doesn't deserve respect!"
"Well don't make him angry! He has your sister!"
"Fine…" Traan grumbled.
"Enough…" Ganondorf said "I have decided you might be telling the truth after all. How old is this land? When was it founded?"
"About a hundred years ago." Traan said losing his former attitude and speaking more maturely.
"I see…how old is the current queen of Hyrule?"
"She's dead."
"Is there no royal family?" Ganondorf asked.
"The princess Zelda, is still alive." Traan responded. Ganondorf smiled, if they were both here then the job of finding the right Zelda wouldn't be as easy if there was only one.
"Her age?"
"I don't know…I think she's our age…maybe a little younger."
"I see…tell me a bit about the princess." Ganondorf commanded. Traan obliged, giving his personal, biased view of the princess. This bored Ganondorf, though he never met the current princess, he was sure Traan wasn't the best person to ask. It was the end of Traan's speech that intrigued him.
"…Right now she lives in Hyrule Castle, which is at the center of the land next to the Tower of Spirits. She used to live by herself with only her teacher, but the coward hired a friend named Link to body guard her.
"…Did you say Link?" Ganondorf asked breaking out of his trance.
"Yeah…why?"
"Describe him…"
"Same age as the princess, blonde messed up hair, a little short…even shorter than his girlfriend, and he is wearing that ridiculous green suit like the rest of the guards wear." Traan turned to Ganondorf to ask his for Wistil's return once again but stopped. Ganondorfs eyes were wide and demented, his face had gone rigid, and he looked like he wanted to kill. He was a terrifying site. Ganondorf then smiled, which was somehow creepier. Ganondorf thought some more, if his theory was correct the Triforce was now present in Zelda and the boy.
"One more question…for now." Ganondorf said
"What is it?"
"Where could I find great powerful metal, stronger than ordinary?" Traan didn't answer, he had no clue. Freet however spoke.
"North of here, in the fire realm is a station where a few Gorons mine something called Dark Ore. It's some of the strongest metal if not strongest…on the downside it melts in the sun."
"I see…no matter I can get around this obstacle. I don't have a clue what trains are…but from what I can see, your kind is attached to them." Ganondorf turned his head to Freet
"Boy…you will drive me to these Gorons and purchase the metal for me, I want enough to make a sword fit for me. You will also teach me how to drive the train. Understand? And of course if you say no, you know what happens…" Ganondorf added coldly.
"When do I get my sister back?"
"When my plan is complete."
"What is your plan, then?" Traan asked. Ganondorf paused before responding.
"For simplicity's sake…capture Zelda and her body guard…alive." Ganondorf said the last word in a way that clearly showed that given his way, they would both be dead. He beckoned Freet, who reluctantly followed him outside.
"WAIT! What about my answer? How do I retrieve my memory? Who am I!?" Traan called out. Ganondorf turned and looked around.
"I don't know you…but it's clear you're just a power hungry brat who has no clue what power truly is…that's who you are. And you never lost your memory…you're just a newborn spirit, born into a body too old." Ganondorf said and left. Traan sat there for a moment, this had all gone wrong. He had failed his friends. He was glad they weren't here. He didn't think he could stand to see their faces, no doubt angry, or ashamed…at him, and his foolishness. Traan then remembered that Hyrule forces were coming. He could use the man's help; they might go as far as to send Link there! Of course…if they did, he would be one step closer to saving his sister. Traan headed outside, he meant to call them back and explain the situation to Ganondorf, but the train had already left. Ganondorf had taken Wistil with him as well. Traan noticed they took the train with the cannon. Villagers saw him and approached.
"Sir, I have heard that we may get raided is that true? Should we prepare?" Motu asked.
"I am ready to risk my life for you sir!" Nusuto added.
"Enough, just tell the villagers to be ready if I call, when you're done return here. I don't need the villagers to leave yet, just make sure they know we may be attacked.
"Yessir!" Motu and Nusuto said together. They began spreading the word that Areno might be attacked, meanwhile Traan went to retrieve the sword Ganondorf took from him and dropped. He then sat waiting by the tracks, where they would likely attack.
Meanwhile back at the castle Link had just finished waking up Zelda and explained what happened.
"That's wonderful!" Zelda cried "Now we can stop them and return everything to its owners!" Link winced, she had used 'we' again. The princess was intent on coming. Link loved the princess's optimism, especially when she was a spirit. But now it scared him, the princess didn't seem at all worried that she might get hurt. It was true he hadn't worried quite as much when they fought Malladus, but this was because in the beginning he was only protecting her. In the 2nd half she was in more danger but it was he who had the task of actually distracting Malladus and getting hit. He also had time to think of the dangers then. Now Zelda was trying to join the fray in the front lines…if there was even that. Link had a feeling it would only be him and Zelda.
"Zelda…I…" Link began
"No. I'm coming, so if you're trying to stop me, give up." Zelda made this clear. Link sighed.
"I knew you would come…but that isn't what I was going to say. I want you to have this." Link looked through his back and took out the Bow of Light. He held it out to Zelda.
"Link…I couldn't." Zelda said.
"Take it, you're a better shot, I have a spare, and I can't wield a bow and sword at the same time. Oh and take this." Link added giving her the recruits sword and shield he still had. "Those belong to the castle so they are yours."
"Link…I-I don't know what to say."
"I just want you to be safe…" Link said. He would have normally blushed at this point, but under the current circumstances he didn't.
"Thank you…" Zelda said softly. Suddenly she hugged Link very tightly. Link managed to surpass his usual embarrassment again and hugged her back just as tightly. Link didn't want to remove his arms from her, he felt that doing this was keeping her safe and letting go would only put her back in danger. Link's logic caught up with him in the end though and upon realizing that he really wasn't doing anything by just holding her, he let Zelda go. "Let's go then." Link said and began heading out of Zelda's headquarters.
"Wait!" Zelda said.
"What?"
"I know we can't bring a lot of troops but I still think we're kinda small…let's bring Russell and Alfonzo with us, ok?" Link agreed and together they set off to the training room. They asked the nearest guard for Russell and were told that unfortunately Russell was on vacation, in an unknown area.
"You're kidding!" Zelda said in shock "He's never on vacation!"
"I know, we were shocked too…trainings a little lonely without him." The guard said sadly. Zelda sighed
"Well we better go get Alfonzo then…" she said to Link who nodded. They set off the train station and headed to Aboda village. The trip was pretty calm; there were only two snurgles that needed to be taken down. Sometimes Link would gaze at Zelda's face as she stuck her head out the window as always. He would look at her hair blowing in the wind, her cute smile, her fair skin, and her beautiful blue eyes. He had to protect her… Link sighed as he turned back to the road, he gasped and quickly put the gear on stop, one more second and he would have had to use the emergency break. They were at Aboda Village. Hating himself, Link climbed off the train and helped Zelda out. They headed directly into Alfonzo's house. Waving to the kids as he passed, who waved back, Link opened Alfonzo's door and headed in. Alfonzo was working on a new train mumbling to himself.
"Hi, Alfonzo!" Zelda said brightly. Alfonzo turned his head and smiled back, which Link did as well. Alfonzo rarely smiled, so it was nice to see now and again.
"Zelda…and Link!" Alfonzo cried. "Good to see you kids back here! What can I for you, or vice-versa?"
"Link and I were wondering you wouldn't mind helping us with those desert thieves. We just found them and we can't bring a lot of people with us. I thought I would bring you and Russell…who unfortunately isn't here."
"I see…surely you're not going though, are you!?"
"Of course I am!" Zelda said indignantly "…honestly you're just like Link."
"Well…Link has a point…I mean it's his job to keep you safe!"
"Well now it's his job to beat the desert people and get all of Hyrule's valuables back. But he can't leave my side either so he has no choice!" Zelda said crossing her arms.
"…Princess is a handful isn't she, Link?" Alfonzo asked. Link quickly nodded his head before Zelda turned around; when she did he began shaking it. Zelda didn't notice, despite Alfonzo's laughter. When he finished laughing he continued "Alright, I'll go with you, I need to repay that scum for stealing my train."
"That's wonderful!" Zelda said.
"Err…but can you kids do me a favor?"
"What is it?" Link asked.
"Could you spend the night at Aboda Village? I want to examine the Spirit Train so I can try to replicate it. But you two need it so I need you over here too…just for one night though!"
"Of course we could." Zelda said politely
"Thanks a million." Alfonzo said. And with that he headed outside. Link and Zelda followed him, as they reached the train station the postman came.
"Hello." The postman said, sounding more formal, yet clumsy, than usual. "I have a Zelda for Miss Letter…Err no wait! I have a letter for Miss Zelda!" He produced a letter from his bag and handed it to Zelda. Not going into a conversation as he usually did, and left.
"Who's it from?" Link asked.
"The Anouki." Zelda said and began reading the letter out loud.
Dear Princess Zelda
On behalf of the Anouki I would like to thank you for the fun time you gave us the other day. We enjoy your new method of ruling, we feel much closer to you. By the way, next time your around we Anouki challenge you to a sledding contest! Good luck with your duties and we hope to see you again some day.
--Honcho
Zelda smiled, this letter had made her day. Link smiled too. Alfonzo sighed
"I wish Russell could make it…I miss that kid." Link laughed at this, trying to imagine Russell as a kid. Zelda giggled a bit too, and with that they boarded the train. They rode and once in the desert Link spotted someone and stopped. He was in green, it was Russell.
"Russell!?" Zelda asked. Russell froze and turned around.
"Your highness? What on earth are you doing here!?" Russell spluttered.
"I was going to ask you the same question!" Zelda said. Russell looked at her in an intimating sort of way, he always did to get his troops to listen or obey him. However he quickly found that doing this to his superior wasn't going to work. He sighed and said
"Truth be told, I was informed that we had found the thieves and decided to go. But I knew I couldn't go without my troops following me. If I hired an engineer they would know. I told them I was on vacation and left, I decided to walk here unless I found a train ride on the way. I think I'm facing much bigger numbers than myself and that my troops would be outmatched. These thieves were clever enough to rob every village here under our noses."
"Couldn't you just tell them not to come?" Link asked "I know you're not Zelda but you're still captain."
"I know…but I didn't want them to worry either." Russell said.
"Well come on board Russell." Alfonzo said "We'll take you with us! I want to see how much better you have gotten since I left…" Alfonzo and Russell smiled at each other with a glint in their eyes.
"You would be surprised Alfonzo…" Russell said "I think I could beat you, seeing how rusty you are."
"I still have plenty of years in front of me." Alfonzo said "Don't take me lightly, recruit!"
"C'mon let's go!" Zelda said anxiously
"Oh you're right. Sorry about that." Russell said as he climbed aboard the passenger cart. They set off again. Link checked the rail map, based on the mark he put on it, they should be pretty close. Sure enough Link soon saw some huts and supplies lying around to their north east. There was somebody waiting for them, three people. Link put his train to a stop. His passengers climbed out and approached group. The one who looked like the leader said softly
"So this is the princess, Zelda, and her body guard, Link?"
"Please…give us back the stuff you stole and I won't fight you." Link said. Zelda nodded in agreement, although Alfonzo just shook his head. Sometimes he could just never understand Link's forgiving nature.
"Hey now…that's a pretty girl, eh Nasuto?" Motu asked looking at Zelda. "How about you ditch blondie here and come join us…we don't bite." Motu said with a chuckle.
"I don't know about the girl but I say we could sell that jewelry of hers for a very good price. And that dress….try not to mess it up, I think I could take that and get another pretty rupee off of it. Heh heh heh."
"Urgh…you two disgust me." Zelda said wrinkling her nose. "C'mon Link lets beat them." Link nodded, so did Alfonzo and Russell.
"Don't kill them…" Traan said softly. "We need them alive…" he sounded calm yet he gave the impression of great seriousness. Link could tell he walked in at a bad time.
"You look familiar kid…" Alfonzo said. "Have we met?"
"Not as far as I can remember." Traan responded. "You can kill the adults." He added to his cohorts "But the children must live."
"You can stop now and we won't punish you." Link said. An empty promise as he wasn't in charge of what happened to them, Zelda was. Still he was sure he could convince her.
"Actually Link I need you and the princess…I want to fight you."
"Why is that?" Russell asked "What bone do you have to pick with her majesty, and Link?"
"My sister…without you two I can't save her."
"Woah, what happened to Wistil?" Nasuto asked.
"She's been taken." Traan said "I don't get her back unless I get these two alive."
"C'mon Traan we could take anyone on. Is it the miniblin pirates?"
"No…you can't take him on, nobody can. Just do as I say and capture these two."
"I'll get reinforcements, this looks serious!" Motu said
"Make sure the bulbins know not to kill them…they can be a bit bloodthirsty."
"Will do! C'mon Nasuto!" The two of them headed off yelling at the top of their voices for help. Link gulped, Zelda held on to his hand. Alfonzo and Russell looked at each other and instinctively went in front of the children. They looked so defenseless standing there hand in hand.
"C'mon Zelda we can do anything. Right?" Link asked smiling
"Right!" Zelda said smiling back. Link pulled out the Lokomo Sword and Zelda pulled out the Bow of Light.
"Hmph…lets go." Traan said. Suddenly with a great swiftness Traan pulled out his sword and leapt at Russell. The guard captain just barely blocked the attack. Traan then swiftly sent out a mass amount of spells. Link countered these with his sword beams. The other villagers were now on there way. Zelda shot a lot of them down with the arrows. Alfonzo and Russell took on some more. Zelda's arrows missed them but hit the villagers easily, she was a master sharp shot. Link had his attention on Traan only. Link jumped at Traan with his sword. Traan block the attack with his sword, they were now in deadlock. They began pushing at each other, the wind of the desert blowing through their hair.
"I won't lose my sister because of you!" Traan yelled pushing harder, his strength was immense, inhuman even. Link felt like he might actually lose this. Suddenly he thought of Zelda and found new strength. He pushed hard and found his strength was equal to Traans. They pulled back and went back to slashing each other. Link occasionally checked up on Zelda and the others. They were doing well, Russell's arm looked wounded and Alfonzo had a slash on his leg, but other than that they looked fine. Traan chanced a glance at the villagers too, his eyes opened in shock, they were losing. Suddenly a cannon blast hit the earth. A new train was coming. Link smiled, they were saved. Or so he thought…the cannon had been aiming for them. There were two riders. A short blonde boy and a tall, red haired, man. To his fury Link saw the boy was riding one of the Lokomo's wheels. He must have stolen it. The train stopped right in front of theirs and the riders got out. The boy didn't say anything, but the man looked at Link with meaning.
"Quit fighting!" Traan yelled "I don't want you to lose your lives unnecessarily!"
"Silence!" The man yelled "Keep fighting!" he told the villagers who looked at him curiously. The man sighed. He had no established leadership here yet. "You, order them to fight! Do it or your sister dies!" Ganondorf barked at Traan. Traan's face twitched a bit before he ordered
"Go back to fighting…" Ganondorf looked pleased and headed towards Zelda
"You're coming with me…your highness." Ganondorf said coldly. Link heard this and immediately ran to Zelda's aid, forgetting he had been fighting Traan. Link jumped in front of her and slashed his sword viciously in Ganondorf's direction to ward him off. Ganondorf didn't look impressed. Link was blasted off his feet and landed eight feet away by Ganondorfs magical spell.
"LINK!" Zelda called. Ganondorf approached her, but Zelda found her wits and placed an arrow in the Bow of Light, she shot it directly at Ganondorfs face. Ganondorf, however, caught it in his hand, easily. He casually threw the arrow aside and continued moving closer. "Please…d-don't come any closer to me." Zelda said. Link opened his eyes and looked at her; she looked as poor and defenseless as the day she got attacked by Cole and Byrne. Link couldn't let her get hurt again, he had to help her. Link suddenly found his left hand could move, a few seconds the rest of his body followed suit. He could move! But how? Link didn't stop to ponder this; he ran full speed towards Ganondorf, who was closing in. Link jumped and slashed his sword at Ganondorf. Ganondorf managed to dodge, but he had move a fair distance from Zelda when he did, which made her path clear. Zelda quickly ran a fair distance from Ganondorf. Russell looked from his fight with the villagers
"Alfonzo, the kids are in trouble!" He called. Alfonzo looked at saw that he was right. Traan stopped, due to the fact he couldn't stand teaming up with Ganondorf, but Ganondorf was still going after Link and Zelda. He was sending a barrage of spells in their direction. They were managing to dodge them or block them with their shields for the most part. Alfonzo rushed directly at Ganondorf but Russell yelled "Stop!" Alfonzo turned and looked at him
"What?"
"Don't fight! Just take the kids and ride the train home! Our job is to protect the princess! Not kill criminals!" Alfonzo nodded. Russell swung his sword at Ganondorf who dodged by hitting the blade with a spell and making it swerve off course. This was the distraction. Alfonzo picked up Link and Zelda and forcibly carried them to the train.
"Let us go!" Zelda shouted
"C'mon we can beat him!" Link agreed.
"Not today, we are outnumbered! We're getting the princess out of here understand?" Alfonzo said. Link nodded, Zelda looked cross. Part of Link agreed with Zelda, he wanted revenge on these people for trying to hurt her, especially the red haired man. The other half knew Alfonzo was right. If he had known what dangers were here he would have never let Zelda go, even if it meant he had to stay there too. "C'mon Russell!" Alfonzo shouted. Russell was still fighting Ganondorf, he looked at Alfonzo and smiled as she shook his head.
"Russell no!" Zelda shouted. She got up and ran back to the village. Russell saw this and hit the barrels of oil near the tracks with his sword. Oil spilled everywhere; Russell then grabbed on of the bulbins flaming arrows which fell when missed and threw it at the oil. It was on fire. The village was surrounded; nobody could enter or leave until the fire died.
"We have to go princess." Alfonzo said sadly. He put the train in reverse. Link in Zelda were in the passenger cart watching as Russell continued to fight for his life. Zelda cried and placed her head against Link's chest. Link patted her and Alfonzo managed to turn the train around and head to Aboda Village.
Speak of the devil I wasn't able to do it daily! Sorry I was busy…reading fanfiction, and learning grammar. lol
