FallDownBoy: I'm back!
Tetra: Yes!
FallDownBoy: I thought you didn't like me.
Tetra: What made you think that?
Link: 'Cause you've been pressuring him to get the story done.
FallDownBoy: Should only take a few more chapters. At least.
Disclaimer: I do not own Zelda.
Chapter Ten
Return to the Forsaken Fortress
(Cut to the Forsaken Fortress)
Aryll woke up. A guard was opening the cell and motioned for her to follow him. Aryll did so. The guard led her up the
ramp to the tower she'd seen on her way in. She was told to go inside. She did so. Inside, there stood a man wearing
robes, with a hood over his head, and his back turned to her. "I suppose you're wondering why I've sent for you." the
man said. Aryll nearly jumped when he said that. "Yes." She was trying to be brave, but wasn't doing very well. The
man turned towards her and pulled down his hood, revealing his face. Aryll was shocked at the face, because she had
seen it before. "You're than man from the legend!" "What legend?" "Of the Hero and the Power of the Gods!"
Ganondorf chuckled, and raised his left hand. Three triangles appeared, one on top, one on the lower left, and one on
the lower right. The top one was shining brighter than the others. "This is the Triforce of Power. There are two others in
the set. Wisdom, and Courage." Aryll was surprised. "Recently, I saw a battle between Gohma, one of my most loyal
servants, and a boy wearing green garb. That boy was caught here and tossed out." Aryll made no facial reaction, but
inside, she thought, Link? Ganondorf chuckled. "So, you do know him." Aryll's mouth went wide. "How did you-?" "I can
read minds. His sole purpose is to recover you, his sister. And, thanks to you, I now know his name. Link. The cycle has
not ended. Good." He smiled and faced the window. "I must prepare for his arrival." Aryll kept her mouth shut. "Oh,
yes, he will come back. His bond to you is a strong one. A brother's protective instinct towards his sister is a natural
and unbreakable thing. I admire his courage, and he seems to be a strategist. He's defeated two of my best minions
already. There are three others left, including the bird that brought you here." Aryll made a face of disgust. "I hate that
bird. It's mean, ugly, and it always stares at me when it sees me." "He thinks you're food." Aryll nearly threw up when
she heard that. "Ew!" Ganondorf chuckled and said, "Oh, the ways of youth. You may go." Aryll was escorted back to
her cell, and glanced at the window, knowing that Link was coming
(Scene Change)
Tetra and Red were talking about what they would do when this was all over. "I suppose you will return to your crew."
Tetra shook her head. "I'll be going to live with Link's family, if they'll let me." Red nodded, and said, "I shall be able to
rest in peace when this is over." Tetra glanced at him. "What do you mean?" Red said, "All will be revealed in time. Just
then, Link walked out, carrying the helmet of a Darknut he'd defeated in the castle. Tetra smiled. "Have fun?" "Lots of
fun. There were a lot of Moblins and Darknuts between me and the way out after I found what Red sent me to get, but
I took them all down. It was pretty fun. They never knew what hit them." He got onto Red. Red looked at him. "It is
now time to return to the Forsaken Fortress. Our enemy is there. And he knows we're coming." Link glanced at him.
"He does?" "Yes. But for some reason, or another, he hasn't sent out the Helmaroc King, the bird that took your sister.
Which can only mean one thing: You will have to face it." Link shrugged. "Pleasure." Soon, they rose up through the
portal, and sailed to the Forsaken Fortress. They managed to sneak in and Link and Tetra got onto shore. "Be careful.
Link, you were here before, but Ganon may have new defenses." Link nodded and drew the Master Sword. Tetra drew
her cutlass and they began their assault on the Forsaken Fortress.
