The Thorned Rose, Finale: Angel of Darkness.
Aww, well this is it guys the final chapter. Let me just say it's been really fun and exciting writing this out for you guys! And since it is the last it's going to be nice and long so you can enjoy every last minute of this. It feels as if it was just yesterday when I brought this story to life, *Sigh. ( ´-ω-`)
Special thanks with sprinkles on top: To everyone who favorited and followed this, thank you for sticking with it I appreciated the support! (*^-^)／＼(*^-^*)／＼(^-^*)
Itanimulli: oh, well I did give a heads up, lol, and yes in order to break someone's will they'll have to suffer in unimaginable ways. Oh ok not a big believer then, well nevertheless thank you for all the support. Maybe our paths can cross again when I drop another awesome idea hmm.
HeroineLinkle: Oh it's fine, in fact I do that myself actually. Well at least I know you sticked with it thank you. Well I was leading to it the whole time and dropping some stuff here and there, in fact most of the stuff from earlier chapters will make more sense after this. If i'm completely honest here, I kind of stung my own heart as I wrote that terrible fate.
Oh really, well I originally planned to kick off my writing with a horror story mind you. But because of certain complications and my idiocy! I lost it and I just moved on.
Yeah, that was unintentional actually. (*)
Gitithal: Heeeeyyyy bud! (* ﾟ∀ﾟ)ﾉｼ
Haven't seen you around for quite some time, yes summer can be crazy. Like the time I woke up in my driveway… what? Nothing!?
*ahem, ok then I look forward to seeing you around then! I was actually wondering where you disappeared too.
P.S so do I. (ゝω･)
That day, Ganon foolishly had made the mistake of causing her major head trauma, all when he crushed her windpipe and threw her against the wall. The impact caused all her memories at that point to came rushing back to her, her mother, Impa, her father, her childhood with Link, her kidnapping, the horrendous torture, her eventual demise. A flash of lightning sliced through the sky as thunder roared. Her eyes snapped wide open at that moment awakening in full now as she started to slowly get back up, getting her head out of the crater in the wall. She fell to her knees immediately after looking down at her hands as some tears fell on them. "Ah you're awake it seems, as I suspected that wasn't enough to finish you." Zelda heard him speak up from being her. She just stayed looking down at her trembling hands as tears continued to land on them, she couldn't believe that she actually forgot all that so easily. She then clenched her hands tightly and slowly lifted her head to glare at him. She wiped the tears from her eyes and slowly shook her head looking back up at him.
"You..." she breathed out slowly trying to stand on her shaking legs. "I remember, I remember now, I know you and all I've been through because. Of. You." She said solemnly trying to steadily stand on her feet as her hands trembled uncontrollably, and she clenched them tightly digging into her palms. "You took everything from me!" She hissed at him as she began breathing hard. He just smirked and shook his head with a dark chuckle and a gleam in his eyes, he actually hoped this would happen.
"So you remember then, it's of little concern though you will cease to exist beyond tonight." He responded bluntly but she ignored his comment, then he heard a deep growl come from her.
"YOU STOLE MY LIFE!" She screamed at him with a loud booming voice that seemed to echo through the vicinity. Her eyes started glowing an intensely bright gold afterwards. Some loud hissing emitted from her as bright golden marks appeared all over her was surrounded by a multi colored aura as she fully stood up, sending a powerful shockwave through the room crushing everything in site. Ganon was knocked backwards from the impact but he managed to regain his footing.
"So this is the full extent of your power, excellent i've been trying to break you for years so that you'd finally use it and here it is!" He spoke up clenching his fist as it infused with dark purple energy and he chuckled darkly, we extended his hands outwards as he chuckled to himself. "Come now show me what you can really do!" He finished as he got in a battle stance and she let out a powerful scream and dashed at him.
The heavy rains still pounded against the vicinity as the skies continued to roar with fury. It was at this point when Link's eyes snapped open and he looked around. He sat up panting hard and remembered he was thrown out the vicinity. He landed on some sort of structural support sticking out of the building, the impact causing him to lose cautiousness. He looked up and saw he fell quite some distance, he couldn't go down either he was too high up. He then remembered the gadget he had acquired from Falcon earlier. He shot the the thing that latched on tightly near the large hole he was thrown out of and the chain yanked him forward. He heard a powerful scream coming from Zelda as he neared, he got back up only to see her dashing towards Ganon at full speeds. She and him both collided with each other. Ganon was throw across the room with great force, causing him to go through a bookshelf that hid another room. She however wasting no time dashed in after him, he was about to get up when she appeared before him and slammed him back down with a hard kick. She then began to beat him into the ground while she growled loudly and angrily with rage. He managed to push her back though and regain his footing, she continued to glare it him while he just scoffed. She dashed at him again but he anticipated it and managed to counter her attack. She however proceeded to attack at blinding speeds and from all sides without letting him counter or recover. She then grabbed a large pillar that supported the room and used it to smash him down into the ground. He was at this point breathing loudly and yet he started to slowly stand up again. She began to glow more intensely now and her right hand transformed into a brightly golden glowing bow. Her left hand however created a large light particle that shone with intensity. As he got back up she fired the light arrow at him and it pierced right through him and everything else behind him. He took off at blinding speeds to crashing against the backwall and then he exploded in a flash of multicolored light seemingly disappearing. She returned back to normal afterwards as the glow and the hissing stopped.
She started to tumble afterwards and would of fell back had Link not catched her. "Woah you ok there, I saw what you did that was amazing. And now this whole ordeal is over!" He said with a sigh while she slowly opened her eyes, he could see they started to tear up too. She then embraced him in a hug holding tightly onto him while the tears slowly fell down her face.
"Link, thank goodness you are alright, I can't believe I didn't realise it sooner that I had found you again. Ive missed you so much." She whispered to him before she buried her face into his shoulder.
"What, what do you mean i've only been gone a few minutes?" He stated puzzled as he backed away and she wiped the tears off her eyes.
"Of course, you wouldn't remember it was so long ago and I just suddenly disappeared." She said slowly shaking her head while she took his hands in hers. "Link, I am actually not who you think I am. I know it sounds confusing but we've actually known each other way before any of this happened." She said to him while she slowly lowered her head he however stood completely puzzled as to what she was going on about. She lifted up her head again staring into his eyes while she smiled gently. "Link, I know you can remember, but in your childhood do you ever remember having stumbled into a large garden of a mansion filled with vast amounts of flowers." She began without taking her gaze off him but he slowly shook his head looking puzzled. "Try to think, there that day you meet someone who's life you completely turned around. A little girl you befriended and ever since that day you visited almost everyday until the end of summer." She finished as she let go of his hands and held her own up to her chest while she lowered her gaze again.
"I actually can't recall, but some of what you are saying does sound familiar to me." He responded while he rubbed the back of his head looking in thought.
"Well then Link think about all that I have told you just know, that and think about my name is." She whispered to him and looked back at him with a pleading and hopeful look upon her face. He looked lost in his thoughts at that point and then stared down at her.
"Zel…!? Da?!" He said with a weird look as it looked like began to come back to him. She looked at him joyfully then and smiled gently while he looked astonished. "Yeah, yeah I remember now! you had a weird long name I couldn't remember, but no yeah I remember the day we met." He responded finally and she just slumped her shoulders and lowered her head while he was left looking dumbfounded. She slowly looked up at him with a deadpan look and then just grabbed his left hand with hers. Her hand started to glow as the triangles appeared on her hand and coincidentally on his as well. Before he could ask what she was doing she suddenly grabbed his head and pulled him into a smooch. He was about to pull away when he felt himself getting weakened by the second. An intense glow surrounded them and he just stared with eyes wide open as the world was engulfed in a bright golden light. Then it all disappeared when the world suddenly turned dark. He found himself wondering in his thoughts afterwards strangely enough, more commonly those from his early childhood. He remembered the day he lost his mother it really did have a great impact on him, it was at that point when he had lost the ability to speak. Though he did speak often but it was only to Ilia and it was more of mumbling then actual talking. He remembered now the day he met Zelda it actually changed him. He actually gained his confidence to speak again well with her heart warming nature that is. He remembered what a joy it always was walking up that hill towards the large house everyday, until the day came she disappeared without even saying goodbye.
Moments later,
Link came to afterwards slowly opening his eyes and looking around while groaning. He felt kind of lightheaded at the moment and he noticed Zelda staring down at him looking worried. She had his head rested on her lap and she was gently stroking his hair. He began to sit up slowly but she set him back down and shushed him. "Link, it's alright i'm sorry I overdid it earlier and drained myself of power so I needed some. I guess I took more than your body could handle i'm sorry, though you weren't really helping it you made me do it." She explained to him softly while he just relaxed and let out a slow sigh. "Yeah," he said as he cleared his throat and smiled sheepishly. "I'm sorry about that, uh whatever I did. But never mind that I-I don't know how but… I… remembered. When I met you for real, you, we were so young and it was so long ago, I remember the first day I stumbled into that garden." He finished while she looked away from him staring off into the distance. "How, what happened to you, why did you return now suddenly after all these years?" He spoke up again getting up and turning to face her but she avoided his gaze. She grabbed the sides of her face and turned her head to meet her gaze there were tears in her eyes.
"Believe it or not, I sort of already told you when we were at Shulk's house. You know before we got into this mess. Link, I never meant to drag any of you into this. This, this was my battle, I started it and I have to finish it." She responded and stood up and began to walk away trying to wipe away the tears in her eyes. Link grabbed her by the arm and swung her around with a stern look.
"Hey, now what kind of talk is that?" He said grabbing her arms in his while she kept her gaze on the floor. "Look now, we, you actually never asked to be in this either. You've been fighting this battle by yourself for too long now. We are here because this battle can't be won alone and what are friends for if they're not even there for you when you need it most. I know what they did I remember what you told me that day, they took you unwittingly and forced you to their will. That is not right and we know it, weather you realised it or not we aren't the types to turn a blind eye when there's trouble." He finished while placing a hand on her chin and slowly lifted her head. She sniffled and wiped the tears off her eyes giving him a weak smile.
"Thank you!" She whispered to him while she embraced him in a hug, "thank all of you, i've never meet such compassionate individuals before." She finished while she buried her head into Link's chest and left out a deep breathe.
Not long afterwards they heard an explosion near by and they seperated looking at one another. The building shook a little and some debris fell from above. "Let's Go!" He told her and she nodded her head and they headed off, now that the hard part is done there was only now a need to escape. They entered went out through a fire escape and went down to lower levels before heading in. They were walking down a corridor when Zelda suddenly stopped holding out her arm and stopping Link as well. Before he said anything she suddenly turned aimed a kick as his head. He ducked quickly and she came into contact with something, or rather, someone else. He turned around and saw a guy on the floor wearing a stealth suit that would of made him completely blend into the background. He stayed lowed knowing that more could be lurking around ready to pounce at a moment's notice. He heard a several gunshots that caught him off guard freezing him in place with shock. Zelda to ahold of him lifting him up and then twirling in place encasing both of them in a bright blue crystal. The projectiles all bounced back to their source and a group of men dropped to the floor dead. She looked around the room briefly before turning to him and nodding and then they moved onwards. They made it to this strange looking room composed entirely of lights, that sealed itself shut immediately after they entered. Zelda was looking around the room for anything unusual but didn't spot anything, she could of swore she remembered the room from her memories but couldn't exactly tell what its purpose was. The lights suddenly dimmed and a loud whirring noise emitted from the room. A large purple laser zoomed out of the wall heading straight towards Link at lightning speeds. "Link!" She shouted and pushed him out of the way getting struck by the laser. It send a strong pulse of electricity through her body as she screamed in pain. It stopped shortly afterwards and she fell to the floor completely motionless.
C. Falcons group, lower levels.
"Shit it's hot!" Roy complained as they walked through the many machines emitting some hot steam. Indeed it was like an inferno down there with the unbearable heat. Something also started moving around down there beside them. Roy and Ike were about to pull out their modded weapons but Robin stopped them.
"Wait we can't use our weapons down here, one false move and this fight is over for all of us!" He said shaking his head as it appeared the shadows were moving. Falcon then punched the air in front of him coming into contact with something, a guard then fell to the floor unconscious.
"They're using stealth suits watch yourselves!" Falcon called out before he was dragged away as was Corrin and Ike. Pittoo swung at Pit suddenly who ducked and his bat came into contact with one of them.
"We're outmatched!" Robin shouted as he managed to hit one of them with a pipe. "We have to move we're too vulnerable here!" He said and they headed off with the stealth guard still after them. They make it to an enclosed area where they start to fight against them. The thing they failed to notice though was that they had trapped themselves in a dead end. Robin was looking around his surroundings for anything that he could use to their advantage, but there wasn't much. The fact that they couldn't use their weapons wasn't helping all that much either, in fact it was a total upper hand for the enemy having them weaponless. In fact Pittoo was the only one still using his, swinging his bats away at the skulls of the attackers. It was the heat of the moment and Robin couldn't think straight he knew he had to come up with something quick. Pittoo can't hold them off forever he also needed to know the whereabouts of the others who were taken, assuming they weren't harmed that is. He failed to realise it though but they were surrounded and the situation seened grim and hopeless as the enemy closed in, in large numbers too.
"Watch the power of aura!" Came an echoing voice suddenly afterwards. Lucario then seemingly appearing out of nowhere jumped in the middle of the group. He began swinging at the air randomly and stealth guards fell at his feet. He started jumping around from place to place dropping stealth guards left and right. All while the rest of them stared dumbfounded, he just looked like he was showing off moves rather than fighting. He landed in the middle of the room on one foot with his hands out in front of him. The others who were dragged away suddenly appeared from the back staring around puzzled. "The aura is mine," Lucario finished as he set his hands aeide and turned to face the group.
Shulk slowly approached with his mouth slightly opened, gawking at what he saw. "That," he said with a squeal. "Was awesome!" He said holding his hands up to the side of his head and the others started flipping out too shortly after. Lucario however just had a toothy grin plastered on his face, C. Falcon step out from behind the gawking teens and approached.
"Nice to see you, so i'm guessing your job went off without a hitch I assume?" C. Falcon said giving the man in blue a firm handshake while he shrugged.
"More or less, then I sensed that you guys were in a spot of trouble, I confirmed this when I noticed all the hostile auras around you." He responded and walked off turning his head slightly. "Well, what are we waiting for we have a job to finish no?" He stated and walked off deeper into the mess of whirring machines. The others looked at one another and quickly followed after him.
Samus and the girls,
They looked left and right but there was no mistake they were outgunned outmanned and cornered. "I didn't want to use this but here goes nothing," Samus said pressing a series of buttons on her arm cannon. "Get behind me!" She ordered the other girls and they did what they were told. The corridor was flooded with guards as they had joined in the middle and were now descending upon them. Samus then aimed her arm cannon at them and it began to glow intensely. She shot off a giant laser that swept the entire corridor without leaving anything behind. When the laser died out hissing noises emitted from Samus suit and began to break apart. She stood up again and the broken suit laid at her feet. "I can only do that once, since ot completely overloads the suits power." She spoke up staring down at it and then looked back up.
"And we appreciate it." Korra told her slightly patting her shoulder as they moved on towards their destination. Not to soon afterwards a loud explosion sounded off from the lower levels that shook the entire structure. When it stopped the girls all regained their footing looking at one another.
"Well looks like boys were successful," Raven said dusting herself off and taking a walkie-talkie out from her coat. "Robin what's the status on your team, over?" she spoke up but all she was getting was the static from the other side. "I repeat, what's the status on your team, over?" She asked again waiting for a response, but she was still getting nothing but static. "Robin are you there please respond, over!?" She said raising her voice a little but was still meet with the same static. She cursed under her breathe slamming the thing against the wall. The others just looked at her worriedly and then back and forth at each other.
Back with the guys,
The whole lower section was completely decimated, debris and rubble laid everywhere. That and there was a huge cloud of dust coating the entire room restricting view. Uncontrollable coughing was soon heard from different locations. Several silhouettes started emerging from the debris coughing and waving their hands in front of their face. DAMN IT GUYS WHEN I SAY WAIT FOR MY SIGNAL!" Robin shouted as everyone's ears were ringing from the explosion, but stopped momentarily to cough. "THAT MEANS WAIT FOR THE SIGNAL!" Robin finished waving his hands around frantically at Roy and Ike who looked around all dazed. The other members too were shaking their heads or wiggling around their ears to get rid of the ringing. Some of them still coughing from all the dust and debris engulfing the room, that and most of them were covered with soot. Most of them were all yelling as well though it was just a bunch of incoherent gibberish. They started dusting themselves off and they all just started walking away yelling at each other though the ringing in their ears reduced it to a muffle. They all stumbled and bumped into each other while heading out of the room. After they got out and started tumbling down a corridor the ringing stopped shortly after. They all looked at each other and nodded and that's when Robin finally heard his walkie-talkie was going off. "Robin if you are still there please respond this instant!?" Came Ravens frantic demand as she sounded desperate to hear something from the other line.
Samus and the girls,
Raven just finished again yelling frantically into her walkie but the static ensued much to her frustration. She groaned in frustration stomping her foot on the floor running a hand through her hair. "Ok, we can't seem to reach the guys so something must have happened, so we are going to have to go to them." Samus spoke up and they all looked at each other and nodded and she motioned them to follow. That's actually the exact moment when the walkie finally sparked to life and Robin's voice finally came through. "Uh, hey, uh Raven did you guys call?" He said casually and everyone stopped dead in their tracks to look at it. Raven quickly took it up looking at it with a look of relief.
"Robin!?" She responded with shock and disbelief, "Good grief Robin i've been trying to reach you for an hour now. What the hell is going on with you guys what was that big explosion?" She finished waiting for a reply and they could hear all the guys arguing in the background.
"Weeeelll," Robin began. "We were doing everything according to plan as per the plan. But then somebody!" He said though they couldn't see it he stopped to give a glare at Roy and Ike. "Got a little too trigger happy and didn't WAIT FOR THE SIGNAL!" he yelled while shooting another glare at the duo who smiled sheepishly. "We happen to be within close proximity of the blast that left us deaf because of a loud ringing in our ears." He finished while all the girls looked at each other with a blank expression.
"Alright then Robin, well Samus said proceed as we had planned we'll meet you there." Raven responded and they all nodded and headed off.
"If we cut across this corridor here we should be able to make it to the meet up point faster." Samus said motioning towards a different path than what they had originally planned for. They all new however that Samud had been there before multiple times so it was best to trust her judgement. The place didn't have much security except a few traps that were easily disarmed. When they got out of the corridor they turned a corner and then ran into all the soot covered guys who were just chilling there waiting. Before anyone could respond however a large group of guards came from the other end and opened fire. They all dashed for cover to avoid their line of fire this was it now they just needed to escape.
Heavy breathing. It was all he could hear, his back against the cold metallic surface of the wall. He felt cold drops of sweat run slowly down his face, all he tasted was the dry air. Link looked to his right to see the leader of this operation, an infiltration operation as it were. Samus had her hand up signaling them to stay put for the moment, a barrage of bullets were currently ramming into the wall they had their backs to. The bullets stopped momentarily the group looked at one another and nodded. She brought her hand down while pointing ahead with two fingers. Ike then rushed forward with a bold metal door ripped from its hinges. The enemy group began to fire at them again but the door was absorbing all the bullets. They however returned fire through the small window on the door taking most of them out. It wasn't soon before more of them started to show up, Samus turned towards Pit who was in the back and gave him a nod which he returned. He pulled out a grenade and threw it into the heart of the enemy, Pit had a whole flock of them strapped to him that he found and was in charge of explosives. Ike then turned the door horizontally and they all ducked behind it as a large explosion engulfed the large hall. More guards came and Samus signaled the group to rush them. They all placed their weapons on top of the horizontal door and began crawling towards the enemy and firing. They took them out in no time the cover from the door made it difficult for the enemy to hit them. Ike tossed the door aside and they moved in as the coast was clear and Samus motioned them onward. She led them down a corridor that would lead them to a side exit where they'll have a better chance of escape.
They make it to the end of the corridor and a group of elite guard stood in their path now. Snake seemed to be the ringleader as he stood in the middle, two heavily armored guards stood on either side of him. Samus glared at him with intense hatred as did some if the other members who held a vendetta against him. They all got in a battle stance ready to attack as they raised their weapons but then it was if an invisible force struck them. They all received gashes from the invisible force, but Samus already knew what kind of sleazy trick he pulled on them. Pit in the back got it the worst as a huge gape appeared on his shoulder. "Piano wire!" Samus shouted as they ducked they spotted it afterwards it was being moved by Snake and the guards. Snake and guard headed to the next corridor while shutting the door trapping them in the deathtrap. "Marth, Lucina do your thing!" Samus ordered to the two blunettes in the back, they stood up while pulling out identical swords and removing the wire. Link knelt next to the Pit checking on his wound he was clutching it tightly hissing in pain. Link moved Pit's hand out of the way observing the wound and he just sighed patting him on the other shoulder. "Well that's a nasty gash you got there bud, but you'll be fine man." Link said offering his hand to Pit who took it slowly getting up wincing in pain a little. Link walked off flashing him a quick smile before heading off to join the others. Pittoo walked up to him with his arms crossed while Pit just stared tiredly at him.
"Come on you pansy walk it off." Pittoo remarked as he turned and walked away swinging his bats around. They started heading towards an alternate path Robin suggested that will take them to a southwest exit. When they were almost out the door in the back opened up and giant mutant guard dogs awaited them in the other side. They were huge snarling monstrosities that started picking their prey to turn into puppy chow. They barked and started to charge at them, Samus however told them to run for the exit which they were almost upon. Pit who was in the back was having trouble keeping up as his shoulder still stung miserably giving him a hard time. Falcon hacked through the door security ordering everyone to go into the room as the things wouldn't be able to go through the door. They were all going through while Falcon was working on getting the next door opened, that door wouldn't hold them off forever. Pit stumbled while keeping up he could hear the barking and snarling of the beasts really close now. He stopped and turned around facing the beasts that were fast approaching, he dropped his weapon with a heavy sigh. He pulled out two grenades and pulled the pins holding out his arms waiting for the beasts to take him.
The other members noticed and stared in horror others tried to get him to run. Pittoo turned and dashed at his younger brother while yelling at him, "Pit you stupid idiot what are you doing move your ass!" He insulted him while trying to retrieve his younger brother but was halted by Falcon.
"Pit hey what are you doing come on man, throw those come on we got your back Pit please." Link said to him frantically motioning him to go with the others but he slowly shook his head.
"I'll only hold you back" he responded solemnly, he turned and gave them a weak smile as the doors were finishing closing. The last thing they saw was one of the beast's take ahold of him.
"PIT!" Pittoo yelled slamming his fists on the large doors frantically. He actually kept on banging on the door as hard as he could despite the pain.
"Everyone take cover now!"' Samus ordered as everyone ducked for cover. Pittoo however remained where he was with his hands pressed against the door. Link took ahold of him and ducked behind a large pillar momentarily afterwards as the building shook and the huge double doors flew off the wall. They all stared around the room at each other looking stunned at what had just happened. "Guys we have to move we are too exposed here!" Samus told them as she stood up dusting herself off. The other members started to slowly stand up as well looking around, everyone seemed grim about the situation.
"Get off of me!" Pittoo demanded getting up from his position and pushing Link away. He stood up while looking at the huge smoldering crater where he last saw his brother. He clenched his fists tightly while he gritted his teeth. Warm tears started to slowly flow down his face while he glared with anger and sadness. "Well come on you bunch of punk asses, you heard her!" He retorted walking off while trying to wipe the tears away while he gritted his teeth. They all started to slowly head out afterwards following Samus lead. Link turned back to look at the crater with a sad sigh, he then rushed off to join up with the others. They all made it to a large room afterwards and Samus sighed softly shortly afterwards telling the others they had reached their destination. "Alright we know the drill, Falcon you go do your thing, Ike and Corrin go with him. The rest of us let's get moving we're done here." Samus said as the three headed off and she motioned the rest to follow. The make it to the last corridor and see their exit window clear as day in the room ahead. Problem was that the group of elite guard now stood in their way along with Snake."Guys go around towards the other side i'll hold them off!" Samus ordered but they all just stood there looking at her in disbelief. "Go now!" She said getting in a battle stance the odds were against her but they decided not to argue with her. They head out the door and bolt it shut behind them just in case and to halt anyone who might come after them.
They made it to another large room where their supposed destination was, it was pitch black in there and eerily quiet. The lights started to come on and they all prepared themselves for anything that should happen. But all that they heard was echoing footsteps and a eerie and freaky laugh they all swore they heard in their heads. Shulk asked Lucario what was happening as it appeared he knew exactly what it was, he got in a battle stance. He had his hands formed tightly into fists and he was gritting his teeth and turned slowly. There stood a pale looking guy with a small but sinister smile. He had a bizarre look almost like Lucario did but a bit more freakish. He had medium length pure white hair but a long ponytail in the back reaching to his knees colored purple oddly. He also had to white 'horns' sticking out of his head at both sides, and some sort of tube connecting his head and body behind his neck. His eyes were wide and looked fierce with pitch black pupils and a dark purple ring surrounding them, his eyes also appeared to glow. He had a pure white odd looking suit on with some sort of purple patch on it, while also wearing an armored chest plate over his suit. This bizarre looking boy made the rest of the members feel uneasy he did not look safe. "Mewtwo…" Lucario breathed out while they heard a dark chuckle in their heads apparently making the group more uneasy. "It's been a long time hasn't it?" Lucario said while keeping his eyes on the fiend who just scoffed and started pacing around them very slowly.
"Not long enough!" Mewtwo responded while he stopped and turned to face Lucario. "Besides, unlike you, my powers have intensified greatly since we last met!" He finished while he extended his arm that was surrounded with a dark purple mist. He then moved his arm aside and the mist disappeared while he chuckled.
"Lucario what's going on who is that guy!?" Shulk said looking at the bizarre fiend across the room. Lucario slowly turned his head and then sighed closing his eyes slowly.
"Your friend in the back there wasn't the only one these people have messed with. You see me and a very close friend of mine once signed up for this program these strange men told us about. They were experimenting on awakening powers that supposedly laid dormant inside the human body. They chose us because we showed the greatest potential, and my friend there had a level of psychic abilities. They enhanced this by splicing his DNA over and over to somehow increase his potential. I was given a different treatment however that gave me great strength, I can read people's aura and feel their emotions and thoughts. Eventually the power reached to my friends head making him insane now, I however left all of it behind before the turned me insane." He finished with a sigh and opened his eyes again while staring at the pale fiend.
"Well how touching that you remember but that wasn't the whole story was it, you betrayed me!" Mewtwo spoke up while he stepped forward slowly. Some men entered from the back and the one up front was in a lab coat with a large smirk on his face.
"YOU!" Lucario barked while glaring furiously at the man and he gritted his teeth.
"Oh what do you know it's Lucario, and you what are you waiting for I did not release you to chat finish them!" He turned towards Mewtwo pointing his finger at him while he just turned his head.
Mewtwo's eyes shone a dark purple and the man in the coat suddenly slammed against the wall. "I don't take orders from anyone especially weak inferior pathetic beings!" Mewtwo remarked. He started sliding up the wall while blood suddenly started oozing out his eyes mouth and nose, he was also screaming in pain. The guards that were with him fired at Mewtwo but the bullets stopped dead in the air and turned around killing them all. The man in the lab coat then dropped to the floor dead while everyone backed away in fear. Mewtwo started to chuckle to himself very sinisterly while clenching and unclenching his fists. Lucario slowly turned to the other members seeing their frightened expressions.
"Guys I want you to go" he spoke softly to them while they all just looked at him worriedly. Shulk walked up to him and was about to say something but Lucario just held up his hand. "Don't worry i'll be fine really, I just want want to rescue my friend from the dark just as you have." He explained while he turned to look at Link and he nodded in understanding. "Oh before I forget!" He said suddenly while he took a small case out of his coat. "Shulk this is the new album from that band you like so much, it hasn't even been released yet." He said handing Shulk the case with a weak smile Shulk then gave his friend a hug. They all started rushing off not wanting to be crushed by Mewtwo mentally. Shulk turned to look at his close friend again he got in a battle stance while his arms fused with a blue aura. He took off with the others while they headed down the final corridor that will take them to a elevator that leads them to a garage where they can get a vehicle to escape.
"You know I've been waiting for a worthy opponent for so long, when I get a chance to face a worthy adversary she disappeared. Now she's back and you stand in my way, you aren't worth my time." Mewtwo remarked while his hands started to get infused with dark purple energy.
"No, your fate is with me. I will not run this time I will stay and fix my wrongs." Lucario responded while they circled each other slowly staring each other down. They both dashed at each other trying to strike the other but the moves cancelled each other out. Lucario was slammed against the wall and was trying to break free from Mewtwo's invisible hold.
"Give it up your powers are no match for mine!" Mewtwo chuckled to himself as he watched Lucario struggle in his hold. Lucario then sent a small blue sphere towards Mewtwo who sidestepped the attack but making him release his hold. "You fool!" He shouted, "Do you really think your petty little attack can do anything to me!" He finished while dashing at him with an open palm fused with dark purple energy. Lucario however stood his ground and took the hit, which the impact made him slam through the wall creating a large crater. It also sent shockwaves across the room damaging the surrounding structure. Lucario didn't move after that he just stayed limply in the wall while Mewtwo chuckled to himself in victory.
Samus,
She stood there panting as she recalled her plasma whip and stood up straight, four guards laid defeated at her feet and she smirked in satisfaction. She then looked up to see Snake start pacing around her while she glared at him. "What are we doing here, staring each other down?" Samus said as she holstered her weapon.
"Well, for starters you choose to be on the wrong team." Snake responded walking around while he took out a large hunting knife with a smirk. Samus pulled out her own as they started circling each other.
"You open up your mouth, let your lies spew out. What are we doing here? it's wrong can't you see?" Samus said as he dashed at her but she counter his attack making the blades slide past each other.
"Really cause I feel right at home" He remarked while dodging some of her attacks swiftly. He counter afterwards and managed to scrape her shoulder as they broke apart.
"You want to leave me here and then forget about me!?" Samus said while she clutched her shoulder and he scoffed.
"What's there to forget." He responded and tried to attack again but she sidestepped his attacks. "Come on Sam, you know why I am like this, you and I we're beings of war. Why should we have mercy on anyone if we didn't get it ourselves. You've been making one to many mistakes lately it's pathetic." He responded as they both were slowly circling each other again.
"You look me in my face, tell me i'm a disgrace." She said as their daggers crossed paths sending sparks flying around.
"You feel bad for them because their kids well that's tough luck, they think this is tough you and I have had worst childhood experiences then this and did we get any sympathy huh? Yeah that's right we didn't. You can't tell me you are over your drama you live it everyday of your life." He said while striking at her again but she swiftly dodged the attack.
"You say that you're the victim I say you're full of shit." She responded tossing her dagger aside while he did the same but tossing it at her feet. "All the times you've stuck me here and put me on my own, I feel the same." She said pulling out her pistol and began to load it up while glaring at him. "That's why I got a bullet with your name." She finished cocking her weapon he pulled out his own while removing his coat getting onto a battle stance. The time for talking was over it was now time to get things strait. They dashed at each other firing off rounds while dodging the rounds from the other. Samus fired off a couple of shots horizontally but he rolled on the floor avoiding the hits. He stood up and fired a quick succession of bullets at her but she cartwheeled out of the way. They dash at each other at that moment, she had her gun aimed at his chin, while he had his gun aimed at her neck. They both fired but at the same time though both pushed the weapons away from their bodies. They kept on trying to land a hit while being in really close proximity of each other, but they always managed to move the shot away from themselves. She managed to twist his arm and shot him in the gut the grunted in pain and tumbled backwards. She dropped the empty magazine and quickly loaded the next one, what she wasn't expecting though was he started getting up again while chuckling slowly.
"You've been perfecting your moves haven't you." he breathed out and turned around. She stared at him with disbelief while he turned around chuckling to himself. He teared off his shirt and tossed it aside looking down at his gut the bullet was barely lodged in there and fell to the floor. He looked up and scoffed while shaking his head he tossed his weapon aside too. Strange bumps started bubbling up around his abdomen while he grunted loudly.
"What have they done to you!?" She said staring at him in horror and disgust at what he'd become.
"Nothing I didn't ask for!" he remarked in a deep demonic voice while chuckling sinisterly. The bubbles started getting bigger and appearing all around his upper body while he groaned really loud. She back away from him slowly while his arms grew out and his fingers turned into metallic blades. His back got all hunched and grew large red bumps on it that were gushing. His cheekbones turned to steel and stuck out removing his flesh from his face showing his teeth, steam also emitting from his metallic cheeks. Dark red glowing lines appeared around his abs and chest that emitted some steam of sorts. The man she once new was now replaced by a gushing heap of mutated flesh and machine. He extended his cold metallic mand and swung it at her, she ducked and avoided the hit. He swung his fist down at her but she rolled out of the way while his giant fist collided with the concrete leaving a giant crater behind. She shot him two times in the arm but the bullets just seemed to bounce right off. He shrugged it off and tried to hit her with an open palm but she rolled out of the way and shot him several times in the chest. He look down at himself and chuckled and swing a heavy fist at her she rolled forward avoiding the fist and kicked him in the face. He tumbled backwards a little and she rushed at him ready to strike again but he retaliated quicker than she had expected and slammed her to the floor. He picked her up with his giant hand and began to crush her while he chuckled to himself. He failed to notice however the rockets on her heels which ignited at that moment burning his hand. He tossed her aside while holding his hand, she landed in the other side of the room perfectly on her feet. He turned his head to glare at her while she smirked and motioned him to bring it. He began running at her while forming his hands tightly into fists and bringing them down on her. She slid under him to avoid the attack and with a rocket boosted kick she hit his leg. He lost his footing and began tumbling forward before he landed however, Samus got in the way igniting her heels and kicked him with both feet dead in the chest making him fall backwards with great force. He stood up furious and ripped a huge metallic support from the wall and began to swing at her with it. She started maneuvering through the room avoiding his heavy swings the rocket boots giving her an edge. She made a wrong move however and he ended up smacking her with the large metallic support. She crashed on the floor and hard, having trouble standing up again as well. He laughed victoriously and tossed the metallic support aside while approaching her cracking his knuckles with a chuckle.
The group,
They saw the elevator straight ahead and they all looked at each other before dashing towards it. However they weren't expecting to get ambushed though, well at least Robin did he anticipated a move like this from the enemy. He pulled out his sword and nodded towards the rest as he tossed it up burning a part of the roof and creating a little smoke. This turned the sprinklers on and he stabbed his sword into the ground electrifying everything and everyone. Well except their own because they were all wearing rubber boots as a precaution. All the enemies fell to the floor defeated and any defense mechanism around was fried and deactivated. Robin smirked and then scoffed victoriously tossing his sister the weapon and pulled out a stun gun. "Go, i'll hold off the rest and meet up with you!" He said motioning them to leave. Raven and Lucina were going to object, "Go now!" Robin shouted however before anymore could be said the heavy steps of the guards nearing quickly. They were all waiting for the elevator to finally come up while Robin was keeping the guards at by with the gun, and or fighting them off if they got to close. Someone came from behind him rather quickly however by the time he turned it was too late. He could only stare as his body began to fail him he looked up slowly to see Ghirahim glaring at him, he had stabbed Robin with a large dagger.
"You worthless degenerate!" He barked as he stabbed him several more times before letting go. Robin slowly fell to his knees clutching his stomach, he slowly looked up to see his friends looking at him in horror before he fell to the floor. The Elevator opened up and they were quickly trying to get everyone in. Raven had fell to her knees going hysterical over her brother's death ignoring all around her.
"ROBIN!" Lucina shouted and unsheathed her sword quickly dashing towards Ghirahim. Loud thunderclaps echoed throughout the skies along with several flashes of lightning. They tried to stop her but guards started flooding in from almost all directions blocking their path. Worst yet the elevator was about to depart too and it couldn't be stopped or halted. Lucina too started to get surrounded but that didn't stop her from cutting down almost every guard that stood in her path. When she was halted she screamed in frustration and flung her sword at Ghirahim, who wasn't expecting it. The sword ended up impaling his throat which he clutched tightly and fell to the floor choking on his last breathes. The corridor was becoming unstable with its weaken supports and the electrical charge from earlier. Corrin and Shulk quickly took ahold of Raven dragging her into the elevator forcefully as she was still hysterical. Marth started shouting at Lucina to hurry but she ignored him heading over to Robin's side instead. The structure started groaning loudly as it began falling apart and machines exploding. The elevator dinged and began to close Marth was about to head out but was stopped by Link and Shulk. "HOLD ON TO SOMETHING!" Link shouted as the support cables snapped and the elevator plunged towards the bottom of the shaft.
Lucina had stayed behind getting on her knees and slowly lifting up Robins head to meet her gaze. Her tears were dripping down her face and he smiled weakly nonetheless. He lifted up a shaking hand brushed the tears away from her face but also smearing some blood on her. She slid her thumb across his cheek as she had cupped it with her hand. Robin fell limply in her arms shortly afterwards having breathed his last breathe. She buried her face in his chest as she began sobbing uncontrollably, the structure groaned loudly now as it began crumbling faster. A large explosion engulfed the corridor as it was finishing crumbling shaking the whole building again.
"Raven!" Link shouted at her while shaking her by the shoulders as she appear in a trance. Zelda had managed to halt the elevator for a smoother landing though not perfect. She looked up at Link he could see the panic in her eyes as she began mumbling gibberish. "Raven, Raven!" He said shaking her again but she wouldn't snap out of it and kept on staring off into space mumbling gibberish to herself. He extended his hand and slapped her across the face shortly afterwards and she finally stopped, giving the blond her attention. She stared up at him slowly rubbing her cheek while some tears rolled down her face. "I'm sorry, but look you need to snap out of it. You are Robins twin and we are practically lost without him and you knew him better than anyone. We need guidance and leadership we need a Tactician." He said to her and she looked around the elevator at everyone looking at her. They all nodded slowly one by one and she then looked back at Link who was holding out Robin's sword for her. She took it while slowly getting up wiping the tears away from her face and nodded.
"Well then let's finish this!" She said taking up the sword and cutting through the doors. They where exactly where they needed to be the underground garage, where they can make their escape. Some armed guards started approaching holding long staffs and getting in combat positions. "Alright everyone follow my lead exactly and we should get through this!" She said as sparks started dancing around her blade and she dashed towards the guards.
Lucario,
The building had shook briefly making Lucario snap his eyes open and stand up. He brushed himself off and Mewtwo turned to glare at him and clenched his fists. "Impossible!" He spat and dashed at Lucario again but this time he caught his hand and retaliated with a kick.
"Did you so soon forget the more damage I sustain the more powerful I grow." Lucario responded getting in a battle stance again while Mewtwo growled in frustration. They both dashed at each other with great speed and began dealing blows to one another but Lucario's were becoming more fast and fierce. Eventually he started outmaneuvering Mewtwo and dealing out a good amount of damage. Mewtwo eventually sent out a large shockwave. It went through everything even sending Lucario smashing into the back wall, he stood up only to get struck with another one.
"I am Mewtwo the most powerful psychic and none shall defeat me, nor will any of you leave here alive!" He spoke up as he started grunting loudly while he extended his arms. The whole structure started to groan and debris started to fall all around them. Lucario looked at him with disbelief he was actually trying to bury everyone alive.
"Are you mad!" Lucario shouted at him while trying to approach him but the shockwaves wasn't making it easy. "You are going to bring the whole structure down not even you will survive!" He said while still trying to slowly advance towards the psychic despite the shockwaves.
"So be it then!" Mewtwo responded as he started grunting louder and his eyes intensely shone a dark purple color. The structure was now groaning loudly as the supports were all crumbling.
"You really lost yourself to the power haven't you Mew!" Lucario shouted when he was within earshot, Mewtwo's eyes stopped shining and he turned to glare at him.
"Don't call me that! That name no longer has any meaning for me, just like Riolu has no more meaning for you!" He responded back harshly trying to force Lucario down with his power but he was standing his ground.
"That's not true that name still has all the meaning in the world for me, I just stopped using it because it would only remind me of my failure. It's true that i've been hiding under a new name but I still remember my name because I have to live with my failure each and everyday." Lucario responded looking down at the floor and then he looked up to meet Mewtwo's gaze.
"Admit it you only stuck with me back then for pity! None believed I had psychic powers when I clearly proved it, I was oust from the rest of the children!" He said moving his arm horizontally making some debris strike Lucario.
"And look where it landed you, you attracted the wrong crowd which is why I always said if you believe it it's all that matters." Lucario responded while dodging the debris and blocking it with his hands.
"Admit it I was never your friend!" Mewtwo responded sending more debris at Lucario. "Everyone mocked me and you were no different you were just with me to mock me just like the rest!" Mewtwo said as his shockwaves began to intensify the structure was now falling apart large rubble and debris was falling all around them. Lucario kept onwards nonetheless and then he embraced Mewtwo in a hug catching him off guard as he wasn't expecting that.
"No you were not my friend," Lucario whispered making Mewtwo's eyes shine with intensity. "You were my brother!" Lucario responded holding him tighter, Mewtwo's eyes stopped shining and the shockwaves stopped altogether as well. He slowly but surely put his arms around his long lost friend, Lucario sighed and closed his eyes. "That day we were captured I never gave up looking for you after I escaped, I always knew there was a way to bring you back to the light. I know you must of gone through years of horrendous suffering but it's all over now that i've found you. I promised to end your suffering and I intend to keep well on that promise." Lucario whispered to him while Mewtwo hung his head low and a single tear rolled down his face.
"I can't believe I ever doubted you," Mewtwo whispered back as the structure came down on the ill fated duo.
Samus,
Snake was upon her and before he could finish her off she sprang to her feet dodging the attack. She started to sprint towards the back of the room. She was done toying with him now and it was time to finish the deed once and for all. She walked straight towards the back wall and did a flip over Snake making him strike the wall with great impact, he failed to realise that he had overloader a reactor though. She landed behind him and he turned around looking furious as he shook his hand. "Checkmate!" she stated simply and before he could react a bright red laser pierced clean through him. He grunted in pain while thrashing around for a while before he finally fell to the floor. His mutation started reversing and he was soon back to his old self except for the gaping hole in his abdomen. Samus breathed out in relief that it was over, he however started chuckling. She approached him and knelt to his level while he meet her gaze with a smirk.
"I always knew I could trust you to get my head out of my ass," he remarked while he coughed up a little blood.
"I knew you weren't yourself from the beginning." Samus responded while she gently placed her hand on her shoulder. "You usually have some dignity and honor when handling a job, you always did the right thing no matter the cost." She said to him while he chuckled a little taking something out of his back pocket and handing it to her.
"Here I got the evidence of every dirty deed these bastards have ever done, I want you to finish what I started and bring these assholes down. I would but they must have found out because they planted a bug on me turning me into a puppet for their dirty deeds. There was no turning back from that as it reached the final stage there when I mutated, but it seems you fried the bastard. Funny you kept true to your word that if I ever stray from my path to put a bullet in me." He chuckled to himself again while tightly holding her hand before he let out his last breathe.
"I will avenge you" she whispered to him gently setting his arm down and closing his eyes. The structure started to collapse around her and she stood up and dashed away without looking back. She took a quick glance at the paper making her gasp and stop momentarily. "The Megaman project!?" She said puzzled quickly skimming towards the details. "They are under no authority to do this let alone to a child!" She said and crumbled the paper in her hand and resumed to sprinting.
The group,
They had made it to the garage as planned they found a large van where they could all fit too. Problem was there was no keys or anything nor time to look for them. The building was collapsing and they were surrounded by guards on all sides. They were holding their position as instructed by Raven while Pittoo wired the van, no one bothered asking why he had such a talent. and the two teens appeared out of a vent as well their mission to steal the facilities records a minor success. Samus came tumbling in from the back as well a few moments later, with her data and Falcons they had enough to bring this place down for good. When Pittoo finally got the car to start Falcon took the wheel and prepared to smash his way out. What they weren't counting on was Zelda being snatched in a blink of an eye and dragged towards the back. Link jumped out of the van only to see that it was Ganondorf who held her by the throat while his hand was infused with purple energy. "Link what are doing!?" Samus shouted at him grabbing him by the sleeve, he loosened her hold however hopping onto a motorcycle a guard dropped earlier the world's Epona where plastered on the bike.
"Just go I'll catch up, we just need to finish one last thing or this will never end!" He responded motioning them to leave and then brought the bike to life dashing towards Ganondorf. Samus closed the door of the van and nodded towards Falcon who pressed his foot down on the pedal all the way smashing through everything.
Link,
He managed to take Zelda from his grasp and put her on the bike heading towards the back exit as the garage now began to crumble. They heard another bike behind them and saw that it was Ganondorf following them.
"That's not possible how is he still alive!?" Zelda exclaimed while turning to see the fiend fast approaching, his eyes burning with hatred and anger. His hand infused with dark purple energy and began to fire projectiles at them. Despite that Link managed to avoid the hits making the bike go faster to lose him.
"Link try to keep it steady I think I can take him out with my bow, though it won't be as strong as last time it will do." Zelda said to him and he nodded while she took out the bow and took aim. The arrows were no longer glowing with intensity but they still did damage as one completely crumbled a pillar. Despite her accurate shooting however Ganondorf was expertly dodging the arrow while still firing his own projectiles. Eventually Zelda managed to hit Ganon on his shoulder making him fall off his bike, but not before he shot another projectile that hit the back of their bike. Link lost control as he made it out the gate and they both fell off the bike landing on the ground roughly and rolling around a bit. Link though he might have sprained an ankle or worse cause he was having trouble getting up. Thunder roared in the skies with it's usual flashes of lightning while heavy rain continued to pour down. They then heard loud footsteps approaching and they turned and saw Ganondorf come out of the rubble. Link stood up to try and protect Zelda but Ganondorf just simply tossed his aside continuing towards her. She stood up to try to face him but she was still too weak from depleting her energy earlier, she couldn't take anymore from Link or it could kill him for so much depleting. She moved to strike him but he swatted her hand away and kicked her down to the floor. He brought down his foot on her with great force but she rolled out of the way. She tried crawling away but he grabbed her legs dragging her back and picking her up to slam her back down on the ground roughly. The skies continued rumbling with fury with flashes of lighting from time to time. Zelda kicked him with both her feet making him tumble backwards and tried to get to her feet again. Link too was trying to stand up but his leg stung miserably making it nearly impossible. When she got back to her feet Ganondorf grabbed her from behind placing his arm around her. She was struggling fiercely in his hold before he heard a loud snap moments later. A large bolt of lightning pierced through the sky as everything seemed to stop. Link looked in horror as Zelda fell to the floor with a splash her lifeless eyes still staring at him. "ZELDA!" He shouted her name in agony extending his arm towards her slowly. He brought his fist down on the ground while his hand glowed with intensity. A large sword and shield materialized in his hands shortly afterwards as he stood up perfectly fine now. Ganondorf turned to face him with a look of disbelief before pulling out his own sword and swinging it around. The sky flashed as they dashed at each other making their weapons clash with a loud clank.
Link even though never wielding a sword before seemed to be doing it as though he has been for years. He blocked a swing from Ganon before he swung at him getting his shoulder. He dashed at Link with an infused hand grabbing him from the throat and lifting him up before he was slammed on the ground. Ganon then brought his sword down but Link rolled out of the way quickly getting to his feet. Ganon dashed at him again but Link twirled in place making his sword spin with rapid succession. Ganon then dashed at him with a kick infused with dark purple energy but Link jumped up. He brought his sword down on Ganon using his weight on it driving it into his shoulder. Ganon winced in pain before he swatted Link away and clutched his shoulder. Link quickly and swiftly landed on his feet and they both dashed at each other again clashing weapons again. Ganon then brought his fist back as it got infused with dark purple energy and Link raised his shield. Ganon brought his fist forward striking the shield and making Link go crashing into a wall. Ganon then grabbed Link from the head dragging him towards the end of the cliff where he intended to throw him off of. He lifted Link up over his head but before he could a bright arrow pierced right through his chest. He dropped Link and clutched his chest as he grunted in pain, Link turned and saw Zelda holding her bow. His hand started to glow more intensely now and he was now surrounded with a multi colored aura. He turned towards Ganon and flicked his hand at him as the triangles left his hand and restrained the fiend. Link then dashed at him dealing out multiple gashes in quick succession, he then brought the sword back and plunged it into ganon with all his might. The triangles disappeared while Link slowly backed away and Ganon looked down to the sword sticking out of his chest. He looked back up at Link with a scoff before he fell backwards off the cliff into the roaring sea below.
The group,
Once they made it outside they smashed through the front gates but where was a whole flock of black vans waiting for them. They all stepped out ready to fight their way out if needed be they made it this far. The group of men that got out of the van all ignored them however and headed towards the facility. A man in a white suit approached them as they all looked around puzzled, he had a strange looking glove on his right hand the words M.H were on his suit carved of gold. "It's alright you are all safe now I assure you, please come with me I will help you and answer all your questions." He said motioning towards the back where there was an ambulance waiting for them in case any of them needed medical attention. He told them he was the true owner of the corporation and that everything done in this facility was without his consent. He said he was willing to fully compensate all who suffered because of the actions of the facility. He was also going to prepare a funeral service for all who perished in the tragic struggle. That and for all the young ones we would give them a full tuition to any school they wished to enter after high school. All he wanted to do was right the wrongs that had been caused because of the incompetent actions of his employees. They were all lead away afterwards while he headed towards the facility his gold cane clicking on the concrete.
Link,
Both he and Zelda let out a breathe of relief after seeing that it was finally over, Zelda embraced Link into a hug and buried her head in his chest with a heavy sigh. "Thank you very much we'll take it from here." They heard a voice behind them while some men took ahold of Zelda taking her away. He turned around to see the man in the white suit standing under an umbrella.
"What are you doing let go of her!" He said approaching the men holding Zelda but the man in white held up his hand. He brushed some of his pure white hair out of his face as he approached Link.
"I know of her demise, I know of your struggles to save her well there doesn't need to be any more struggle we'll take it from here." He said to Link while tapping the tip of his cane but Link ignored him nonetheless.
"She is not going with anyone anymore i'm taking her home where she belongs!" He said pushing past some of the people but the man in white placed his hand on his shoulder stopping him.
"You know when they told you she couldn't be in society the way she was they weren't lying. She could randomly get set off at moments and do lots of harm because of her trauma. Even if you stop it all that excess energy will build up and she will overload which would be catastrophic for the whole city." He explained to Link but he didn't want to hear it he just clenched his fist.
"I didn't free her from the clutches of one corporation to deliver her to another!" He responded and pushed his hand away and proceeded but the man in white turned him around.
"I know you feel that way but you must know I am the CEO and owner of all branches of this corporation. They call me Master Hand, and I do not intent to use her as it was planned for her. On the contrary we will reverse the effects and return her to her previous state as best we can but it seems as though you won't understand." Master Hand finished and stabbed Link in the neck with a needle and Link stumbled backwards a little before falling to the floor.
"Link!" Zelda shouted breaking free from all the men holding her back and dashed towards Link.
"Subdue her!" Master hand ordered and some men approached her shooting her with modified stun guns specifically made to shut her down. She screamed in pain after taking several hits and she fell to the floor and Master Hand motioned some men to take her away. They stopped however when they saw her get back up and began crawling towards Link. The men began to shoot at her again but she pushed past the pain and continued. "Impossible!" Master hand said surprised, "That should have been enough to take her down no way she can keep moving." He said watching her continue despite her taking more hits and he ordered them to stop. He motioned some men with long staffs forward that approached her and stabbed her with them. Zelda just gritted her teeth trying to resist but the staffs were set to the highest voltage. She fell to the floor unable to support it any longer, she lifted up her head to see Links motionless body a few feet from her extending her arm slowly towards him, she called his name but he made to motion nonetheless. She then stood up screaming in frustration and sending a pulsing shockwave through the area knocking everyone away. Master hand however blocked it with his umbrella and watched as she tumbled over towards Link. She picked up his head staring at his face he still had a pulse so he was alive which relieved her. She felt her body began to fail her and her vision was going dark, she collapsed on top of him unable to sustain herself any longer. Men came from all side all holding staffs just in case she sprang up again…

Master hand covered up the incident as a group field trip gone wrong,all of Ganondorf's remaining mercenaries were prosecuted for sabotage and the deaths of the teens. He rebuilt the facility and kept it under his personal supervision this time. As promised a funeral service was held for those who perished and their families fully compensated. He also whipped everyone's memories of all recent events so as to not ruin anything further.
Three months later after graduation,
Pittoo cleaned up his act after that getting a full time job and helping around the house so his mother wouldn't have to work so hard, it was after all what Pit wanted. Shulk started his own rock band and went on tour calling themselves The Xenoblade Chronicles. Lucario and Mewtwo survived as well, and started their own illusion show using all of Mewtwo's ability. Raven ended up purchasing her own Library and naming it after her late brother. Marth started a own dojo for sword fighters which he ran with Ike, Roy and Corrin naming it after his departed cousin. Samus started working for the police again as a full time detective as she promised. Captain Falcon stayed as the captain of his police force making sure all is well and good. Ilia of course went back to high school to finish her remaining years. The others used the money to get into a good college or university to pursue their career. Zelda as said was locked away from society for her safety and that of others.
Link however got himself into a good college and moved into a dorm room. His first days were about to begin and he set a picture frame down they had him with a brunette. "Thats your girl?" His roommate said stepping out of the bathroom while Link turned to look at the picture.
"No I think she was a friend of mine from high school." Link replied with a shrug taking more stuff out of his suitcase, as well as more pictures with all his friends. No matter how hard he tried he couldn't remember who the brunette was he remembered all the others however. So it puzzled him he decided to let it go afterwards seeing it was useless trying to remember. "by the way I didn't catch your name, ImLink by the way." Link introducing himself as he sat on the bed and his roommate turned to face him.
"Shaq, it's nice to meet you to" he responded, "well Link i'm going to have a look around campus want to join me?" He said heading over towards the door and opening it.
"Eh, sure nothing else to do i'm finished unpacking anyway," Link responded with the shrug and they headed out the door to see what was in store for them.

In a dark facility somewhere a figure was floating around in a cryogenic containment tank. Her eyes suddenly snapped wide open after being asleep for almost three months now. She didn't remember anything let alone who she was. She extended her hand to touch the glass gently rubbing her hand on it. "Link" she whispered to herself as the tank began to open…
And so no matter how superior the rose may be to other blooms it still falls victim to tragedy. Although its defense can keep it well and prosperous eventually like all other blooms it withers and dies.
I don't know why, what can I do? I don't know? The reason comes afterwards. I was drawn to you and my circuit for a throbbing heart came on.
Alright then ladies and jets that concludes the story The Thorned Rose. I hope you have all enjoyed this as I had a blast writing this out for everyone. Feel free to review if you so wish, i'm also sorry this was so late too. It was the end of the month so that ment review test so i've been spending the last few days in the library on late afternoons going everything. I had to set this aside for a while but hey its finally here.
