Shade: You don't look to hot.
Oni: No kidding, Majora looks better than you.
Majora: I resent that.
Must…type…chapter 11
NOW REVISED!!!
Chapter 11: Mirror Image
Mirror Realm
Vaati smirked as two black blobs formed in the water, "Link…you remember him don't you?" The blob formed a pale looking Link dressed in black with blood red eyes. "Link, Dark Link; Dark Link, Link"
"We've met" Link readied himself for another duel with his dark self.
"Princess Zelda…you remember that little spell Impa used to block your thoughts to create another self…Zelda, re-meet Sheik." The other blob formed a black, white, and gray version of Sheik armed the brim, ready for combat. Vaati turned his eyes towards Malon as Link and Zelda began fighting their doubles. "As for you…I'll take care of you, just be a good little specimen. I may even…reward you."
Malon's eyes began to water as she watched her friends fight; while watching only one thought entered her mind, 'Please help us Oni.'
…
"Oni we need to hurry!" Oni and Tatl were in the center of Clock Town and, despite Tatl's 'encouraging' words, Oni didn't seem fazed "Where could they have gone, Link is so useless without me, we shouldn't have-" Oni began walking towards the Clock Tower as a thought entered his mind, 'Please help us Oni."
…
Link hated it, but he had to admit…he was losing badly. "Why are you…so much stronger?" Dark Link, aka Knil (Link spelled backwards XD) gave a bone chilling laugh. "I'm your opposite, so while you have gotten lazy and slow, I have improved tenfold." Link jumped back and thought of a strategy. "You're my exact opposite right?" "Yes" Link gave a questioning look. "Wait… if you're my opposite…does that mean you're gay?"
"WHAT?!?!?!" "Further more, wouldn't that make you a woman?" "DIE!!!" Link smirked; he had to get Knil to waste his energy.
Zelda was having no such luck. Sheik was her and vice-versa, magic vs. strength. They couldn't defeat each other outright. So far Zelda was blocking and dodging all attacks, but she knew it couldn't last…and it didn't. One well thrown Deku nut sealed the deal as Sheik vanished, blinded Zelda, reappeared behind her, and knocked her unconscious with a blow to the head.
"Zelda!" "Pay attention!!" Knil thrust his sword at Link and stabbed him through his left arm, causing Link to drop his sword. "I win." "Think again." "Wh-" (SLICE) Dark Link was decapitated right before Links eyes by-
"Oni!" Link grabbed his arm to stop the blood loss as Knil fell to the ground. "Help the girls." Link winced as he tried to remove the lodged sword in his arm. Oni turned around staring at Vaati, then Sheik, Malon, Zelda, and back to Vaati.
"Do you know what I could do to you right now wizard? I could kill you as quickly as-" He disappeared before reappearing in front of Sheik who soon fell to the floor lifeless. "A simple fly." Oni wiped his lips and spat onto the floor. "Oh but that's boring for me, and for hurting my friends you must pay the price." His hands glowed with dark blue energy. "Enjoy living through death 1000 times!" He shot the energy is his hands at Vaati who attempted to shield, but the blast broke straight through hitting him dead into the head. Vaati's eyes turned white before he fell to the ground seizing. "You're never waking from this nightmare." He then turned to Malon, who was still attempting to cover herself.
Oni paid no heed as he tore open the door and pulled her out while holding her bridal style. "Link, you okay?" Link had managed to bandage his arm and get Zelda over his back. "I'm alright how'd you find us?" Oni began to walk to the door out with Link behind him. "I could sense one of you call out to me, was it you?" Link shook his head. Oni looked to Malons red face. "Did you call me?" Malon looked away with embarrassment.
Oni sighed, "Oh well, lets head to the inn; and I cleared Snowpeak, even though there was no snow in sight."
Stock Pot Inn, 11:30 PM
Zelda and Malon were asleep in the beds provided for them, but Link found it impossible to sleep, not after his defeat. If Oni hadn't shown up…it would have been over. Link stood up and went to the kitchen to see if he could find a bite to eat. Surprisingly, Oni was there talking to the fish in the corner. "It makes perfect sense doesn't it? Beat Majora, save the world…not with him watching…I have no choice…I must make him play his hand." Link entered the room, "Link…how much did you hear?"
"Just the last bit." Link answered.
Oni sighed. "I'm concerned with the timeline…We don't have infinite redo's this time; that's why I got you and Zelda to sleep together. Don't deny it, I could sense your spirit resonate with passion and pleasure, as well as Zelda…I needed you do to so Link; do you know why. Don't answer, it was rhetorical. You Link…are of my blood." Link stared at the back of Oni with shock. "Countless millennia ago Majora and I fought. I myself, but Majora…he was a large caterpillar like creature with wooden armor and demonic strength. I slew his and created the mask you know, sealing his energy within. But he was too strong to be confined in a small space. His power broke free and became the living mask you know him as."
Link remained quiet. "I always beat him but I needed an emergency plan. I passed on my blood to a woman who was willing to help me; I don't wish to remember her for it's… She bared me a son and raised him. If I were ever to fall, my spirit would overcome the next of my kin and I would be reborn with him as my host." Oni chuckled to himself and turned to face Link, "I used you Link…I didn't want to but I had no choice, it was overshadow you or your unborn son. I didn't want Zelda to lose you, and she doesn't need to know what could have been. I apologize for bringing this to you all at once, but you had the right to know."
Neither spoke for five minutes, just standing in the quiet room until Link broke the silence, "What would have happened to my son?" Oni frowned and closed his eyes. "Honestly…he would cease to exist." Link thought of any more questions he could ask. "What if it was a daughter?" Oni remained quiet for a moment, "Then you would be next in line as my host." Link had one more question, "Where does Malon fit in all this?" Oni looked out the window, "To be honest…I don't know in the slightest…Link…we should go to Great Bay now, we can be back by morning. Don't worry about the girls, I send my other half to aid them; unlike your dark side, mine serves his own purpose. His only want is to defeat me in combat." Link nodded as they left to head towards the next temple; but Oni pondered a thought.
"Malon…could she truly be…Emma?..."
