A/N) Took me long enough to get this out right? Actually, this has been sitting and ready to go and for some reason I forgot all about it! Whoops! So yeah I hope you all enjoy this chapter. A little piece of what you have all been waiting for! The main antagonist! Also, some trouble is being stirred up! So yeah! I am grateful for all the nice reviews from you guys! It's really the best. Hopefully, it won't take as long for the next chapter. I will try not to forget if it's done!
Then sight that greeted the two boys, was not a pleasant one. Tons of Bokoblins were everywhere. Every available female was armed with various weapons, but more of the creatures seems to spawn from almost no where. They were quickly becoming overwhelmed.
Knil unsheathed his sword "We need to hold them back long enough for Ganon to get Nabooru to safety."
Kiehs pulled daggers from between his wraps "Or we screwed up, and gave him time to capture her. Seems unlikely though, the barrier was shattered while we were standing there."
"I still don't trust him!" Knil ran into battle.
They bantered back and forth, as they tore through wave after wave of Bokoblins. It was never ending. Red headed women, almost blended in with the red creatures. Purple blood sprayed every where. They heard a string of curses, and saw Nabooru in the arms of a...man, maybe.
"Filthy pig! Put me down, or I swear to the Goddess I will run you down!"
"Hmm, aren't you cute? I suggest you shut your mouth, before I put it to good use. Good use being you will deafen yourself with the sounds of your own screams." He touched the jewel on her head, and Nabooru fell limp over his shoulder.
Kiehs threw a dagger, but the man avoided it easily. Knil went to rush at him. He gasped when this white haired demon grabbed his sword by the tip between his fingers. He struggled to wrench it free "Let go, you bastard." Knil growled out.
"Well, aren't you adorable." The man said, pulling Knil closer by tugging the blade. Once he was standing close, a long serpentine tongue came, and ran across Knil's cheek. He gasped, and let go of his sword. "You look just like a gorgeous Sky Child I met long ago." The white haired man tossed the blade aside.
Kiehs came rushing at the man, but with a snap of his fingers he disappeared in a flurry of diamonds. His voice rang through the area "I hope we can all play together again soon. You've made this demon lord's heart full with rainbows! Thank you for the sage, I'll take really good care of her."
The Bokoblins just disappeared, and the women began arguing between each other. That man had run off with their second in command, and they had failed her. They left the battlefield, dejected. They protected their land, but failed their leader.
"Are you alright, Dark?" Kiehs asked.
"I'm fine Sheik, don't worry." Knil said, walking over to pick up his blade "Where the hell is Ganondorf?"
"Let's see if we can find him. What about that strange effeminate man?"
"Mr. White hair, and tight clothes? I have no idea who, or really what, he is." He pulled Kiehs to search inside the compound.
"He said he was a Demon Lord. I'm afraid I'm drawing a blank."
"You can't know everything about everything, Kiehs."
"I can sure try."
They comforted the women they had passed. Kiehs narrowly avoided women who dealt with a foul mood in a sexual way. Knil grabbed his hand tight, but that spurred some women on. Knil was getting really suspicious. They couldn't find Ganon anywhere. Aveil ran up to them panting "We...we need help. Lord Ganon, he's been hurt."
Kiehs gave Knil a pleading look. The hero's shadow sighed heavily "Take us to him."
They followed Aveil, and found Ganon being carried out of the desert.
Ganon saw the look the boys gave him, and he sighed, casting his eyes to the floor "Nabooru thought we could find peace in the desert, and head towards the temple. This white clad, hardly dressed man bowed, and called me master before moving so fast with daggers and diamonds everywhere. He grabbed Naboo from right under my nose, and I couldn't do a damn thing."
Kiehs pulled out the Gossip Stone. Zelda's voice immediately rang through "Is everyone alright?"
Kiehs shook his head "Nabooru has been taken, and Ganon was hurt."
Zelda became frantic "Nabooru is also gone? How hurt is Ganon?"
"Good enough to be mad at myself for not protecting the sage well enough." Ganon said.
"Nonsense, you've done your best. Gerudo Valley is no longer in danger. You can all warp to the Temple, if you wish."
"I think I might stay here for awhile. Just to make sure the women aren't too shaken."
"That's a great idea. When Link heard Nabooru cry out, he didn't think, and warped to the desert. Sheik grabbed Nolan, and followed after him. Sheik, I'm not worried about. Link, I am. Can you take care of them?"
"I'll send my women to find them, Your Highness."
"Knil and I will return to the palace on our horse your majesty."
"Thank you boys. You've been nothing but helpful since you arrived."
"We try." They said in unison. The stone ceased glowing.
"I've still got my eye on you!" Knil growled.
Ganon raised his hands up defensively "I understand. You are the Hero's shadow. I've done horrible things to you, Dark. I can't ever apologize enough. I just hope that when my innocence is proven from this whole matter, that we could grow to be, at least amicable."
"If you are actually innocent..." Knil muttered.
Kiehs nudged his ribs, and he cringed
Ganon laughed "I think I like this one, very much."
"Link!" Sheik called out in the blazing desert sands.
"Dad!" Nolan yelled. He hated how muffled his voice sounded. Sheik had kept the stretchy cowl to cover his mouth, but wrapped his scarf around Nolan's face. The little boy was grateful after they left the temple area, the harsh desert wind blew sand everywhere, and he could barely make out the pillars with a red string tied around the tops.
"Hold my hand Nolan, I'll help get us through this area. I hope Link is using the Eye of Truth to get through here, or he will get horribly lost." Sheik was beyond worried. Link was in a very fragile state. After losing his best friend, and Mido's death, Link was feeling the need to protect everyone. In his emotional state, he was going to put himself in danger.
"Papa, I'm worried." Nolan said, grabbing Sheik's hand tighter.
"Don't worry, Nolan. Link is a big boy, and has faced problems worse than this. I'm sure he's fine. I just, I've been his guide for so long. I feel lost without him."
"That's sweet daddy. I hope one day, I can tell my kids things like that."
Sheik smiled, and kept pressing forward. He shielded his face with his right hand to block out the harsh wind that was creating violent swirls of hot sand. Nolan seemed almost unaffected. It would make sense, the boy was a Gerudo. The sand wouldn't affect him as it would some, like Link or himself. It was still so bizarre that Nolan looked nothing like a Gerudo, and yet it was completely obvious from the weapon he held, to the way he handles the harsh desert sands.
"How are you fairing so well? Weren't your women pirates and the sort?"
"It's true we loved off the water, but desert climates have always felt more homey. It must be a hereditary thing?"
"Sheikah come from the desert as well. I guess when we started serving the royal family, our desert hardened bodies became a recessive trait." Sheik mused aloud. Suddenly, Nolan seemed to slink behind Sheik to hide put of sight, as a group of red hair came into focus. It was ambush tactic, just in case. The tallest woman bowed
"Sheikahn Hero, welcome. We have found The Hero of Time, and are taking him to our fortress. Please, allow us to take you."
Sheik nodded "Yes, of course. Thank you. My son and I would love the company."
The girls eyes went wide "I had no idea you had a son." Nolan peered put from behind Sheik and the women, became women. They cooed over the child, and how adorable he was, and how he surprisingly looked like a little Link. He blushed at the attention. Eventually they stopped, and led them back to the Fortress. Sheik ran when he saw Link, and jumped into his lover's arms "Thank Goddesses you are alright!"
Link held Sheik tightly, and nuzzled his chest "I've gone through the desert before. I failed...Nabooru is gone."
"You did what you could, Link." He suddenly noticed their compromising situation, when the women started cat calling and growling at their display of affection. He blushed, but was happy they didn't mind. He should have realized that when the women had commented on how Nolan looked like a little Link. He was way too focused at the time. He was now happy to stay where he was, until he heard a broken sob come from Nolan.
"Mom..."
