Chapter 10: Familiar Faces

Somewhere in Europe a woman with grey-white hair in a white skin-tight outfit with a snake sword named the Valentine, her name is Isabella Valentine or Ivy for short. As she was travaling down on the dirt road something was puzzling her, 'I don't get it, I saw Siegfried destroy the Soul Edge, but I feels it's power.'

Soon she noticed the Valentine started to act weird as it went into its whip form and started to fly around her body, "It can't be," she said softly.

But down the road she saw a figure walking towards her, "Come back to me my child," the figure said.

"You… I thought I finished you off," Ivy said as she got her sword ready.

"You think you can escape from me, but as long as you live I'll keep coming back," Ivy's father, Cervantes, said.

"Silence!" Ivy shouted, "I'll make sure that you die this time!"

Elsewhere not too far from Ivy a blond haired man in full body armor named Siegfried was walking through the woods. 'What is this power I feeling?' he said to himself. Soon he heard the birds flying away from something and he drew out his sword and got ready.

"So I see that you are still alive," a voice said.

Siegfried turned to face someone he never wanted to see, "Nightmare, you're still alive!"

"You're surprised?" Nightmare said in a mocking tone, "I am your sin."

Siegfried just grunted as he tightened the grip of his sword, "You may be my sin, and that means I have to destroy you for good this time."

At the same time somewhere else, a blond hair man in a green jacket, named Raphael, was returning to a mansion. As he entered the mansion he noticed that the mansion was unusually quiet, "Amy?" he called out, but he only heard a loud thud from upstairs. Raphael didn't hesitated; he got his rapier ready and headed upstairs.

Raphael soon came to Amy's room, when he entered the room, he recognized a blond teenage boy in a green tunic with white cloths underneath the tunic, and he had a sword up to Amy's neck, "It's good to see you again Raphael," the boy said.

"You, you're that boy who defeated me," Raphael stated.

"That's right," the boy said, "but do you remember my name?" Raphael was quiet at the question, "Well if want to know my name, then follow me." And with that the boy jumped out the window with Amy and started run off with her.

Elsewhere in the woods two young men named Kilik and Maxi with a young woman named Xianghua were resting. "So what should we do now?" Xianghua asked.

"I don't know," Kilik started, "Maybe we should start heading home."

"Yeah maybe we should," Maxi agreed.

And then in a small glow a young man in red cloths and had gold armor, gauntlets, and boot with a sword and shield on his back. "Who are you?" Kilik quickly said as he got defensive.

The young man turned around with his hand on the handle of his sword getting ready to fight. But the young man took his hand off of the after he recognized the three, "Kilik, Xianghua, Maxi, it's good to see you again," the three of them started to lowered their weapons, "It's me Link."

"Link?" Xianghua started, "Oh my god, I barley recognized you."

"Geez Link where did you the garb?" Maxi asked.

Link gave a nervous chuckle then said, "I'm king of Hyrule."

"Really? I see that time was good to you," Kilik commented, "So what brings you here this time?"

"Well..." Link tried to start but was interrupted by clashing of sword in the distance.

Where the sounds of swords clashing were coming from, Siegfried and Nightmare were in pitch combat. "I'll make you will stay in hell this time," Siegfried said as he swung his sword, but Nightmare easily caught it.

Nightmare gave a little chuckle and tossed Siegfried's sword away. "With my new found strength, you'll be the one to go to hell!" Nightmare shouted as he raised his sword.

Soon out of nowhere Siegfried's sword was flying straight at Nightmare, making him jump back and Siegfried caught the sword. "It seems you still need some help Siegfried." Siegfried and Nightmare turned to see Link, Kilik, Xianghua, and Maxi with their weapons ready.

"Hmph. I'm surprised that you're still alive Nightmare," Maxi said.

"I'm guessing that you're in that new villains group?" Link asked, "Am I right?"

Soon Cervantes flew out of nowhere and landed and landed near Nightmare, "It seems like you've gotten weaker," Ivy said as she approached the group.

"You think that, but wait until you my new found power," Cervantes said as he got back up.

"Well you should of use that power that Lord Oscuro gave you," Everyone turn to see someone who looked like Link two years ago with Amy and he had his right arm around Amy's neck and his sword at her stomach.

"Link is that guy who looks just like you?" Xianghua asked as Link's look alike wonder to where Nightmare and Cervantes.

Soon Raphael finally caught up and he noticed Link and Link's look alike, "What's going on?!" Raphael demanded to know.

Soon the look alike gave a light chuckle, "You didn't tell them about me, what a shame," then the look alike's cloths and started to turn black and his eyes turn red.

"So you made it with the new group of villain, Dark Link," Link said.

"Yeah I made it and so did Ganondorf," Dark Link said, "And with Lord Oscuro we will rule everything."

"I don't care who you are or what you are doing, release Amy now!" Raphael demanded.

Dark Link just smiled, "Sorry but Lord Oscuro needs something that the girl has," then a green light appeared behind him, Nightmare, and Cervantes, "If you want her then follow us." With that Nightmare, Cervantes, and Dark Link with Amy walked into the light and disappeared.

"Oh no you won't!" Link shouted as he ran into the green light and disappeared with Raphael, Siegfried, Ivy, Kilik, Xianghua, and Maxi behind him.

Soon the seven of were in a middle of odd looking, "How the hell did we get here and how?" Maxi asked.

"I don't know, but I think it has to do with something the new group of villains," Link suggested.

Soon a bunch of guards in armor surrounded them with their swords ready, "Who are you and how did get into Hoax?!" on of the guards shouted.

"Whoa, we're not here to cause any trouble," Xianghua tried to reason.

"Silence!" Another guard shouted.

Ivy was about to take out her snake sword, but Siegfried stopped her, "I don't think it would be a good idea to fight them. It would just get us into more trouble," he said.

"Let's take them to his Royal Majesty for judgment," a guard said.
