The Legend of Zelda: The Return of Ganon

Chapter 10: Found

Link kept dodging the boulders that were mysteriously falling from above. When he reached the cover of the Fire Temple he looked around, not knowing where to go.

Navi tapped his shoulder, "Go to the room you defeated Volvagia in, Link!" she rang.

Link nodded and headed for the door that led to the chamber. As he stepped inside he saw the glowing blue transporter. Next to it was a dark purple circle transporter. "I assume that's where Ganondorf went," Link stated his guess hoping he was right.

"There's only one way to find out," Navi rang, bouncing in the air, her glow trailing her. Link shrugged and leaped towards the center island. He ran and jumped into the purple warp hole. Well, he hoped it was a warp hole. He closed his eyes out of habit but knew it wouldn't stop the sudden force that hit him as he traveled through the abyss.

* * *

"Oh great, now he found the warp hole. I still can make it harder for him when he reaches the desert," Ganondorf said. He turned to look at Malon, who was still crumbled on the floor, crying. He studied her for a moment. Her tiny form was on its knees, her shoulders shuddered each time she sobbed and she was hugging herself. Her hair flowed over her shoulders and covered her face, but he could still see the tears fall from her face to the ground. He sighed. He was tired of hearing her cry, and over a stupid Hylian boy too.

'Maybe I can hold him off by sending him an image of that girl,' he thought. His eyes narrowed and a smirk formed across his evil features. He looked into the globe and held his hand over it, letting a weird sparkling dust absorb into the desert wind where Link was just emerging from his portal.

* * *

"Whoa, that portal took a lot out of me," Link said, holding his head as
he stepped out. He began to stumble as he walked. "I'm really tired,"
he grounded and he sat down.

Navi seeing this as a spell cast by Ganondorf, tried to wake Link up.
"Link, don't sleep! Ganondorf is playing with your mind! Link!" But
her cries were useless as Link fell to the ground, asleep. Navi groaned
and began to generate enough power to wake him up. "This is going to
take a while," she said to herself as she sat down next to her sleeping
companion.

* * * Link's Dream * * *

"Where am I?" Link asked himself as he looked around. He was in a
dungeon-like room. The stones were brick red. Only a few torches lit up
the room, and it was so dark he was almost blind.

He heard a sob and turned in the direction he heard it come from.
"Hello?" Link inquired.

* * *

Ganondorf looked over at Malon, she had quieted down. A sudden thought
came to mind, why not let her believe Link is here with her? It would be
a fun trick when she finds out she was just seeing a hologram. He left
and cocked up a Link hologram.

He darkened the room and sent him in.

"Where am I?" the hologram asked.

Ganondorf smirked and turned to look at his crystal globe. Link was
doing the exact same thing as the image. 'How strange,' he thought to
himself.

* * *

Navi stared at Link's slumbering face. 'Please, Link, wake up,' she
begged him mentally.

"Malon?" Link mumbled, catching her attention.

"Malon?" she asked confused. Her face softened with sympathy. 'He's
dreaming about her."

* * *

"Malon? Is that you?" Link asked as he stepped closer to the figure
crumpled on the ground. She looked up, you could still see the tears in
her eyes. Link, his heart aching from seeing the tears, knelt down and
pulled her to him, feeling the fading warmth com back when he embraced
her. "Malon, what's wrong?" he asked concerned.

"I'm in a dungeon and Ganondorf keeps threatening me, Link. I'm scared,"
she sobbed, grasping his tunic and leaning into his embrace. "Link, I've
been waiting so long for you."

Link smiled, yet it was a sad smile. "Malon," he started as he tightened
his arms around her body, "this is just a dream, I'm not there yet but I
will be soon."

She looked up at him, understanding in her eyes. She lowered her voice
and told him, "I'm in a desert dungeon. I think it's where they sent the
rebellious Gerudos." She pulled away from him and sat across him, taking
in his appearance. "You look tired," she stated.

He grinned mischievously, "Thank you, Captain Obvious."

Malon slapped his arm. "Link!" she laughed. He laughed also.

"Malon," Link said, as he was beginning to fade away. "I..." he paused,
wondering if he should do it now or later. 'Now,' he thought, grabbing
her hand. "Malon, I... I love you," he said, and with that, he completely
faded away, leaving an echo of his meaningful words.

Malon sat there, letting the words sink in before she whispered back, "I
love you, too."

* * *

Link woke up, a loud ring sounding off in his ears. "Wake up, Link! We
have to save Malon!"

Link jumped up and ran through the ever going desert storm, to the
dungeon, which he remembered hearing the location from Nabooru when she
had given him and unwilling lesson about the laws of the Gerudo. 'I
can't believe I remembered that,' Link thought, surprised and proud of
himself.

Soon enough he saw the bricks that were marked with arrows to guide him
to the dungeon. He thanked Nabooru silently as he followed the arrows to
the place where his worst enemy kept the girl he loved.

* * *

Ganondorf cursed. Why does he keep succeeding? He looked over at Malon
to see that she was grinning goofily from ear to ear. He didn't like
that grin so he decided to wipe that smile straight off her beautiful
face

He briskly stomped toward her. "Malon," he bellowed. He watched as fear
flickered on her face, but she quickly replaced it with defiance. He
crouched down and looked at her, making sure that she could see his lust.
He grinned as fear returned to her face.

"Maybe I won't wait until after the ceremony," he said in a low voice
that sent frightened chills down her spine. Her eyes widened at his
words.

"You wouldn't dare."

"Try me."

Immediately, she scooted backwards, knowing that he would do it right now
if she pushed him.

Ganondorf lost his smirk, "Why are you so scared? You won't have to
worry after we're done."

"I will never succumb to you!" Malon yelled, feeling burning sensations
at her finger tips. Anger was in her heart.

"Believe me, you will," he whispered as he drew her to him, lowering his
head down to capture her lips with his.

Malon's anger was fueled by this and she moved her hands to push him away
when fire shot out from her finger tips and flew at Ganondorf, hitting
him hard enough to throw him into the wall. He looked up at her, anger
and malice shown brightly on his ugly features. Malon looked at her
fingers, 'Where did THAT come from?' she wondered.

Ganondorf took this time to abruptly stand up, run to her and force her
against the dungeon wall. "No one defies me!" his voice sounding like
thunder in a great storm.

"The rest of Hyrule did, why aren't you raping them?" Malon mumbled, not
even audible to Ganondorf's ears.

The reason for the inaudibility was the fact that the desert storm's
howling wind had found its way inside.

Realization struck Ganon's face, though it hadn't registered in Malon's
mind what had happened. Before she knew what was happening, Ganondorf's
lips were brutally on top of her's. She struggled against his firm grip
around her waist.

Suddenly Ganondorf was pushed away from her and she fell to the ground.
