Link's group were now in the sealed grounds of the sky era. They were convinced that the gate of souls was in this area.
"What is this place? It's giving me creepy vibes" Rowan said
"You are now in the sealed grounds, so named for the great evil that was sealed here long ago" Fi said
"I sure hope we don't have to fight this great evil ourselves" Caeda said
"The seal on the evil is weakening but it's not weak enough for the ancient evil to escape on its own" Fi said
"That's a relief" Hinoka said
"Let's hurry up and find the gate of souls" Ryoma said
"Let's split up into groups. We can cover more ground and finding the gate will be easier" Elise said
"Great idea. Everyone split up into groups" Ryoma said
Link, Rowan, Fi and Elise were grouped together.
Ryoma, Hinoka and Tiki were grouped together.
Cordelia, Caeda and Camilla were grouped together.
Everyone then heard the familiar voice of a flamboyant demon lord.
"Already here, are you? So impatient. So impatient. Perhaps haste maybe in my best interest" Ghirahim said
"That was Ghirahim" Proxi said
"So this is where he escaped to" Cordelia said
"He's probably also guarding the gate of souls" Camilla said
"Let's get him!" Tiki said
"Defeat Ghirahim and close the gate of souls. The world's fate relies on your success" Fi said
"We won't fail" Link said
"There's no way we'll lose if we stick together" Elise said
"The temple's gates look impassable, but I bet they'll open if we defeat the gatekeeper" Proxi said
"Everyone cover me so I can make inside the temple with my group" Link said
"Leave it to us" Caeda said
"The temple is all yours! Just leave the surrounding keeps to us!" A Goron captain said
"Let's go then!" Rowan said
"Try if you must, but I assure you there is no hope for your victory" Ghirahim said
"The enemy is closing in from the west. I will launch a counterattack" Fi said
Fi left Link's group to stop the attack from the west.
"Will she be okay on her own?" Elise asked
"She'll be fine. We need to focus getting into the temple" Link said
"Link's right! The sooner we close the gate of souls the better" Proxi said
"You're right. Let's go!" Elise said
"More allied soldiers? That would be great" A Goron captain said
"I sense an evil spirit amongst our allies. I recommend exercising extreme caution" Fi said
"Everyone keep sharp eye out on your surroundings" Cordelia said
"I'll focus on capturing the keeps" Hinoka said
"I'll watch your back" Tiki said
Fi was able to stop the stalmasters that were headed towards the allied base.
"I have completed my task, master. I recommend traveling to the temple" Fi said
"Great work, Fi! Leave the rest to us!" Link said
Link defeated the gatekeeper easily and the doors to the temple opened.
"The approach path to the temple is open! Gorons for the victory! Huzzah!" A Goron captain said
"Now we can get to the gate of souls and close it!" Elise said
"Be careful! Ghirahim is there as well" Camilla said
"Defeat him first and then deal with the gate of souls" Caeda said
"Master, I have sensed that Ghirahim is in the deepest chambers of the temple. Shall we follow him?" Fi asked
"Of course!" Link said
"He's bigger threat than the gate of souls right now! We need to deal with him first!" Proxi said
"Oooh, yes. Come now, minions! Let's show these children what our fangs look like" Ghirahim said
"Ha! Ghirahim!" A voice said
The soldiers that were fighting the monsters suddenly turned on them and betrayed the very army that they were fighting for.
"We're being attacked by our own allies! What's going on?!" A Goron captain said
"Why are the soldiers betraying us?" Caeda asked
"Did Ghirahim brainwash them?" Rowan asked
"It doesn't matter! We need to take them down" Ryoma said
"I'll punish these naughty soldiers for turning their backs on us" Camilla said
"Try not kill them!" Elise said
"Don't worry, I'll spare them" Camilla said
"Master, our allies seem confused. I propose that we turn back and assist them with their clarity" Fi said
"Understood, we'll be right there!" Link said
Link managed to capture the east cannon keep.
"Comrades, get ready! Ghirahim is delivering orders to attack!" The voice said
Another faction of soldiers betrayed them.
"We can't fight like this! We should flee!" A goron captain said
"Don't give up! Keep fighting!" Ryoma said
A faction of the soldiers didn't listen to Ryoma and fled.
"Cowards!" Hinoka said
"Don't blame them, Hinoka. They probably can't find it in themselves to attack their allies" Ryoma said
"I'm so happy! Thrilled, in fact" Ghirahim said
"There are traitors everywhere!" A goron captain said
"Don't give up!" Link said
"What are we gonna do?" Rowan said
"Master, there is a 90% chance the traitors' leader is near. Find and neutralize the threat" Fi said
"Understood! Elise, Rowan, follow me! We need to find the leader of the leader of the traitors" Link said
"Lead the way!" Rowan said
"We're behind you, Link!" Elise said
Ghirahim then had another nasty plan ready for the heroes.
"Let's see how they deal with these warriors" Ghirahim said
Cordelia, Caeda and Camilla were still fighting off the remaining monsters in their area. A magic circle then appeared in front of them.
"Is that a magic circle?" Caeda asked
"It is! Something is being summoned in front of us" Camilla said
"Get ready, girls!" Cordelia said
What was summoned in front of them left them in shock. What was summoned in front of them wasn't a monster but a person. It was a man with long brown hair.
"Navarre!" Caeda said
"So, Navarre is here too!" Cordelia said
"Looks like he's under Ghirahim's control. We'll need to defeat him to snap him out of it" Camilla said
Navarre dashed forward with blinding speed. The three women dodged him just before he could slash them. Caeda did several thrusts, but Navarre dodged them all and jumped back. Cordelia threw lances at him. He dodged them by jumping to the side.
Caeda charged forward as fast as she could. Navarre jumped in the air. Camilla was above him ready to ambush him. Her axe was coated with fire. She swung down and Navarre slammed to the ground after being hit.
Navarre recovered and slashed all the three of them with blinding speed. They were able to recover but they continued to fight back. Camilla fired a fireball at him. Navarre split it in half with his swords. Caeda charged and thrusted her spear at Navarre and managed to knock him back. Cordelia then created a massive lance out of light magic and threw it at him. That was the final blow. Navarre had been defeated.
Caeda got off her Pegasus and approached the unconscious warrior. She took out a potion and made him drink it. He woke up as soon as he drank it.
"Where am I? What's going on?" Navarre asked
"Thank goodness you're safe" Caeda said
"Princess Caeda? Is that you?" Navarre asked
"We're here too you know" Camilla said
"Glad you've come back to your senses" Cordelia said
"Explain yourselves right now" Navarre said
They told him what was going on and he was angry that the demon lord made him fight women. Navarre had a moral code that he would never hurt women or children. Ghirahim made him go against his moral code.
"I'll make him pay" Navarre said
"We need your strength to fight this war" Caeda said
"I'll join you since all of us need to return to our own worlds" Navarre said
MEANWHILE WITH RYOMA, HINOKA AND TIKI.
A magic circle appeared in front of them.
"A magic circle! Everyone be on guard!" Ryoma said
"I'm ready" Hinoka said
"I'll go at them with everything I've got" Tiki said
What appeared in front of them wasn't a monster but a person. It was Ryoma's younger brother, Takumi.
"Takumi!" Ryoma said
"Takumi! Thank goodness you're safe!" Hinoka said
"Wait!" Tiki said
"What's wrong, Tiki?" Hinoka asked
"Takumi is emitting some evil energy" Tiki said
"Evil energy?!" Ryoma asked
"I think Ghirahim brainwashed him" Tiki said
"Brainwashed?! What do we do?" Hinoka asked
"I think defeating him is the only thing we can do to snap him out of it" Tiki said
"Are you sure that'll work?" Ryoma asked
"I believe that it will work! Come on!" Tiki said
Ryoma and Hinoka really didn't want to attack him but they had no choice.
Takumi shot several arrows at them. Ryoma blocked them with a sword beam. Tiki shot some light magic lasers at him. The young prince dodged them. Hinoka created a tornado with her lance and Takumi was sent flying. He recovered and fought back.
Takumi summoned a giant green blade and swung at them. Ryoma countered by covered his blade in lightning and swung back at him. Takumi was trying to overpower Ryoma but he couldn't get through. Hinoka threw some magic lances at him. He got hit by them and Tiki shot a massive light beam at him. Ryoma finished him off with a lightning sword beam. Takumi had been defeated.
Ryoma gave Takumi a potion and he woke up as soon as drank it.
"Ryoma? Hinoka? Tiki?" Takumi asked
"Glad to see that you're okay?" Hinoka said
"Welcome back, Takumi" Ryoma said
"Glad to see that you're still in one piece" Tiki said
"What's going on?" Takumi asked
He listened to the explanation that was given to him.
"So that's what happened. So we need to help them win this war" Takumi said
"If you can still fight then we could really use your help" Tiki said
"Of course I'll help" Takumi said
MEANWHILE WITH LINK, ROWAN AND ELISE
Link and his allies were looking for the turncoat leader when a magic circle appeared in front of them.
"A magic circle! Something is summoned in front of us" Link said
"We can beat them!" Proxi said
"We'll show them!" Rowan said
"Let's give it everything we've got" Elise said
What appeared in front of them was a human that Elise and Rowan were familiar with. Link and Proxi had no idea who it was. It was a man with black hair and royal clothing.
"Darios!" Rowan said
"How is he here? We saw him die back when the chaos dragon got revived" Elise said
"Is he a friend of yours?" Link asked
"Yes, well he used to be" Rowan said
"We need to fight him! I can sense that he's under Ghirahim's control" Proxi said
"Prepare yourselves! This will be your tomb" Darios said
Darios swung his sword at them with impressive speed. All of them got out of the way.
Rowan charged at him and swung at him. Darios parried him and made Rowan lose his balance and he took that time to swing at him. Rowan got knocked back.
Elise casted a wind spell at him. He dodged it and charged at the Nohrian princess. Elise launched some light magic lasers at him. Darios got knocked back but he got back up and charged at her again.
Before he could get any closer he felt something hit him on the side and knock him away. He got up and saw that Link was the one who did it.
Link went on and battled Darios. The young prince tried to hit the hero of Hyrule but Link was faster than him. He countered and parried most of his moves. He then performed a spin attack and that dazed him. He then did thrust and knocked him back.
Rowan was back in and he managed to slash Darios while he was still weak from all the blows that he received from Link. Darios was defeated.
"Sorry, Rowan" Darios said
"Darios" Rowan said
Darios vanished. Link put a hand on his shoulder.
"Sorry, Rowan" Link said
"He must've meant a lot to you" Proxi said
"He did. But don't worry about me. Let's just focus on finding the turncoat leader" Rowans said
"Yeah! Let's do it!" Elise said
That's when Fi spoke to them again.
"I theorize that the commander responsible for the mutiny is hiding in one of the keeps" Fi said
"Everyone! There's a turncoat leader that's causing this mutiny! He's likely hiding in one of the keeps. Search every keep and see if you can find him. If you do find him then defeat him!" Link said
"Let's go then" Tiki said
"I'll search on my own" Navarre said
"No, Navarre. We're all in this together. So you need to be with someone" Navarre said
Navarre just sighed and gave in.
"Fine, who will I group with?" Navarre asked
Proxi then spoke up.
"You can group up with Takumi and Fi" Proxi said
"Fine" Navarre said
Everyone then started to search for the turncoat leader. Fi's group managed to locate the turncoat leader.
"The person in that keep is the leader of the traitors. I recommend immediate action" Fi said
"Let's take him out!" Takumi said
"I will make him taste the sharp end of my blade" Navarre said
"We may have been found out! Be ready for anything" The leader said
They were able to deal with the leader with ease.
"Ohhh! Ghirahim, forgive me!" A traitor said
"Master, our allies are no longer being led to mutiny. Proceed to the temple once more" Fi said
"Alright here we go!" Link said
"Hopefully nothing else will happen" Cordelia said
Ghirahim was performing a ritual in front of the gate of souls.
"Oh, has the enemy figured out my plans?" Ghirahim asked
"How unpleasant!" Ghirahim said
"Truthfully, I feel annoyed" Ghirahim said
"If they can't learn to follow my direction then I shall do away with them" Ghirahim said
Then all of sudden a massive amount of dark power appeared and then a giant scaly monster with a pillar in its head appeared.
"A giant monster has appeared!" A goron captain said
"What is that thing?" Takumi asked
"I can tell that it has a lot of power" Navarre said
"I sense evil energy coming from that thing" Tiki said
"The gate of souls has revived my master! Tremble in fear, all who oppose him" Ghirahim said
"That monster is in an incarnation of a great evil, imprisoned after trying devour the world" Fi said
"Master, the imprisoned is heading towards the allied base and means to destroy it" Fi said
"Elise, Rowan! Follow me! We need to intercept the imprisoned" Link said
"You mean we have to fight that thing?" Elise asked
"How are we supposed to fight something like that?" Rowan asked
"Don't worry! We'll definitely find a way" Proxi said
The three of them went forward to engage the imprisoned.
"It'll be dangerous to fight alone. We should warp to our allies with the ocarina" Fi said
"Don't worry about them. They'll definitely take care of him" Takumi said
Ghirahim then yelled at his minions.
"Don't dillydally! Keep moving forward!" Ghirahim said
"Attacking the imprisoned's toes will provide the tactical advantage" Fi said
"Did you hear that?" Link asked
"Attacking the toes will help us take it down" Elise said
"Let take that thing down!" Rowan said
"Splendid! I'll happily crush you humans!" Ghirahim said
They attacked the toes and that caused the imprisoned to fall down. They took this time to attack it. The monster then started to crawl really fast.
"Let's get out of its way unless you want to be lunch" Rowan said
The Imprisoned then reached a west keep and created a giant dark hallow above its head. It then levitated off the ground and was starting to gather some dark power. It was going to unleash a massive dark beam from its mouth to capture the keep.
"Master, the Imprisoned is amplifying its strength to destroy an important keep" Fi said
"What do we do then?" Link asked
"Various keeps have weapons useful against the imprisoned but only if its mobile" Fi said
"There's a catapult with a bomb in it! Let's use that!" Cordelia said
"Launch the bomb and knock it out of the sky. We'll deal with it!" Elise said
"Master, the enemy is healing itself by magical means. We must attack it with the groosenator" Fi said
"I'll launch it" Camilla said
Camilla launched the bomb at the imprisoned and it got knocked out of the sky. Link's group continued to attack the giant monster. This continued until it reached the east cannon keep.
"I'll make this blow hurt until you weep" Ghirahim said
"Our base is in danger, but the imprisoned has ceased moving. It is vulnerable to attack" Fi said
"The enemy is healing through the use of magic. We must use the groosenator to stop this" Fi said
"I'll launch the bomb this time" Ryoma said
The bomb once again knock it out of the sky and it got attacked again. This lead to its defeat.
"Master, I can report that the Imprisoned has completely vanished" Fi said
"Great job! Now we can go to Ghirahim" Caeda said
"We can end this!" Hinoka said
"We're so close. We just need to close the gate of souls to end this" Tiki said
"Hurry up!" Navarre said
"We did it! It's all thanks to you!" A goron captain said
"Haaa! This shall not stand! Come here! I'll give you someone to contend with!" Ghirahim said
"Master, enemy forces are coming from the temple I recommend that we fight back" Fi said
"Understood!" Link said
"All of us will cover you three! Proceed to the temple to defeat Ghirahim and close the gate of souls" Ryoma said
"Leave the advancing enemies to us!" Takumi said
"Make him regret doing everything he did" Navarre said
"If the enemy is allowed to enter the base, they are likely to gain momentum" Fi said
"We'll take care of them" Ryoma said
"Leave it to us!" Cordelia said
"Go to the temple!" Tiki said
The assault troops were defeated and the enemy forces strength has been reduced.
"I can confirm that enemy strength is reduced and the time to fight Ghirahim is now" Fi said
"Let go then!" Rowan said
"Useless fools! Fine I'll crush them myself" Ghirahim said
The three of them reached the enemy base. Ghirahim then used the gate of souls to summon moblins.
"All of you… Go! And don't let a single one of them get away!" Ghirahim said
"Elise! Rowan! Handle the moblins and other monsters! I'll deal with Ghirahim!" Link said
"Rodger!" Elise said
"Sure thing!" Rowan said
"No matter how many times it takes, I promise I'll tear you to pieces and blow you aside!" Ghirahim said
"Master, you must defeat Ghirahim and seal him behind the gate of souls" Fi said
"I won't let you down, Fi!" Link said
Link and Ghirahim fought with all their strength but it was the same result like it was in Skyloft.
Ghirahim tumbled but quickly recovered. Link then jumped and did a spin attack which knocked Ghirahim inside the gate of souls. Fi then instructed Link on what he should do next.
"Master, raise your sword skyward and then swing it down" Fi said
Link did what he was told and used the light magic he had and swung it at the gate and that closed it.
"Way to go, Link!" Elise said
"Nice job!" Rowan said
"Thanks" Link said
Link and his allies returned to their own time to meet up with everyone else.
