Boar Chops Anyone?

Link placed another log on his small fire. He was going to grill fish and make a vegetable stew for supper. He looked over to where Ulquiorra and Grimmjow were sitting with their heads closely together disguising how to best take down the magic barrier that kept them from getting to Hyrule Castle. The raven-haired man had joined them just before they'd left for Hyrule. He'd said something about not saving Grimmjow only to see him kill himself now. The bluenet had just snorted at the comment.

Forcing the fire down to a pyre, Link slowly stared getting their food ready. He cut a potato-lookalike to quarters. It tasted almost like potato but had a sweet overtone that reminded him more of carrots. Not to mention that it was bright green. He grabbed one of his bottles and dropped the vegetable inside. He'd taken a trip by Ordon and grabbed a pumpkin which he was now adding to the bottle. The he cut an apple in half. Hylian apples were mush sweeter than most Earth apples and they had an almost strawberry taste to them. He placed the fish down on a flat stone he'd placed in the fire earlier.

"That smells good," Grimmjow said as he sat down next to the blond. He reached out and pulled the teen closer. Link smiled at him as he moved to sit between his legs. The bluenet wrapped his arms around his mate's waist, and pulled him up against his chest. Resting his chin on the blonde's shoulder, he closed his eyes and sighed contently. His eyes travelled over to Ulquiorra. "So we think that if we go for a small point of impact and then just blast it," he informed Link. "It's strong all around, but if we can centre the blast through one of Quio's javelins, it should work."

Link nodded. "Makes sense to me," he said before reaching into the coal and flipping the fish over. Being able to take almost any temperature did have its perks. "So are we going tonight or are we waiting until tomorrow?" he asked.

Ulquiorra shrugged. "Is there any point in trying to be stealthy and go in during the night or…?" he asked expressionlessly.

Link scratched his head in thought. "It will be pretty obvious that we're coming when we destroy the barrier. The question is if we want company from any of the humans in town or not really," he said.

Grimmjow grimaced. "I'd prefer if we didn't have to deal with the humans to be honest," he said. He really didn't like the stupid creatures.

Link hummed in agreement. "I've already said goodbye to the people that matter around here so I'm all for just going there after we've eaten," he said. "It should be done soon." He reached out and grabbed the glass bottle filled with stew that rested in the coals. It was simmering away happily. He pulled out a set of wooden bowls that Pergie had given him when he'd told her he was leaving for good. She had been saddened by the news, but rather than try to convince him that he should stay, she had given him a sett of wooden bowls and spoons. He filled the bowls with the stew and handed one each over to Ulquiorra and Grimmjow. "Here you go," he said getting dual 'thank yous' in response. The fish had been speared on sharpened sticks before he'd put them in the coals. "You won't have any trouble with picking those up right?" he said.

Ulquiorra gave him a small smile. "It won't be a problem, Link," he said before reaching out and picking one of the fish up. It had been so long since he last had human food and this smelled delicious. Over the years of being alone in Hueco Mundo he'd become more and more lifeless he guessed. And then Aizen had found him and used that stupid Zanpakutō. He hadn't actually been all that interested in anything anymore by then. It felt strange to actually care about something once more. His dull green eyes landed on the two men sitting on the other side of the pyre.

The two were cuddled together as they ate their stew. Link reached out and picked a fish up biting into it with vigour. He was pulled back as the bluenet attacked the fish he was holding. Warm laughter filled the air.

Ulquiorra chuckled softly.

…

Dusty orange runes were carved into the crystal surrounding the castle.

A bright jade projectile sailed through the air. It hit the barrier creating a crack in the smooth surface before the crystal exploded. An intense light filled the air.

"Well… that worked nicely," Grimmjow said. "I guess we'll just enter from here now."

Link snorted. "No, Grimm we're standing in mid air over Zora River, but we have to use the main gate to enter the castle," he said sarcastically.

The bluenet rolled his eye and the corners of Ulquiorra's mouth turned up slightly. They moved forward towards the castle. "When my grandfathers fought Ganondorf he had situated himself at the highest possible point in his castle. We could always blow the topmost windows out and see if he's there," Link said as they came closer to the building. The sky had darkened and ominous clouds building.

Yellow eyes moved lazily over the blue carpet in the throne room. Outside a storm was brewing. It was just the way he liked it. There was only one thing that aggravated him. The third part of the Triforce, the Triforce of Courage, was missing. He had captured Zelda. The foolish Princess might not be the same one as the one that ordered his execution so many years ago, but he despised her and her foolish people all the same.

For quite a while after his execution his mind had been filled with a different existence. A secondary future. A future where he'd ruled Hyrule only to have his rule destroyed by two foolish boys. One of which had held the Triforce he now sought. But what had happened to that piece of the sacred triangle? He had felt it briefly, moving around Hyrule so he knew it was there. Then it had disappeared, and he could only imagine that the current little fool of a hero had gone to the Twilight Realm to defeat Zant.

Next to him the Princess whimpered in her nightmare riddled sleep. He sneered down at her body.

Then he felt it. The crystal barrier he had erected around the castle to ensure that he could return to full power in peace exploded. A smirk spread over his lips. That would mean that the foolish boy was on his way. He raised Zelda to hang in the empty space between the triangles of the Triforce in the goddess statue behind his throne. He had blasted Farore's head off when he'd first entered the place. Courage was such a stupid thing.

"Why do evil lords always have to be so melodramatic? Can you answer me that…Ganondorf?" a smooth baritone floated through the empty stone hall.

Ganondorf leaned forward over the sword that lay across his lap. He had not expected the boy to show up so soon. He was sure that the minions he had walking around the castle should have at least given the boy some challenge. Yet here he was. "Welcome to my castle," he said darkly.

Link chuckled and gave a light bow. "Why thank you Ganondorf it is such a pleasure to be here," he said as he shifted the staff in his hand.

The man stood up slowly. He took a step forward only to be thrown backwards. His yellow eyes narrowed at the young blond before him. Jade markings much like the ones the covered the shadow folk were appearing over the boy's body. "Well, well look at this it would seem that light has been touched by shadow, little hero," he sneered.

"Light," Link said amused. "Oh, I've never been light Ganondorf, and that is why you will die tonight." He raised his staff and fired off a fiery ball.

Ganondorf moved out of the projectile's way. He scoffed at the boy. "Ah, but can you fight me little hero," he sneered, "if I do this?" His body turned to shadow particles and rose up in the air.

Link moved back a few steps as he saw the dark cloud penetrate Princess Zelda's lifeless body. 'Oh, great,' he thought. He'd promised Midna that he'd save the Princess of Hyrule for her so he couldn't just cut the woman's head off even if that did seem like the perfect way to deal with this. "You just had to do that," he said with a sigh. "Grimmjow… Ulquiorra," he called. "Would you join us now, please? I'm going to have to exorcise this bastard and I don't feel like getting stabbed in the back afterwards."

The Princess moved down to the floor as a solid crystal barrier appeared in the room, blocking off the blonde's exit… or attempting to do that at least. "Faithless fool who would dare to take up arms against the king of light and shadow. So you choose and so you shall feel my wrath!" her distorted voice flowed through the air. She moved up into the air out of the boy's reach.

… or so she thought. She'd barely raised her sword when the blond was standing right in front of her. The markings on his body were shining brightly. A hand moved swiftly and grabbed her by the throat. "I will draw you, Ganondorf, as poison is drawn from a wound," he said irritably. He just couldn't help it the situation just called for a Lord of the Ring's quote. The light from his markings moved out and surrounded the two of them.

On the floor one leaning against the crystal that had appeared and one simply looking up at the blond, two men were standing. They were there now for what would happen after Link was done with his little light show.

The light faded and Link carried Zelda over to her throne. Hopefully she'd be out of his way there. He turned around as he felt the so-called-evil-king materialise behind him. His eyes met with Grimmjow's and then they travelled over to Ulquiorra. Forcing the man out of the Princess hadn't been easy. He really could use a minute or so to recover. He fell down on his knees and breathed in heavily. A presence appeared beside him. "Are you O.K. love?" Grimmjow asked worriedly.

Link nodded. "I just need a few to gather myself. Healing takes way more energy that fighting does," he said while smiling up at the bluenet.

The bluenet messed his mate's hair up as he said, "I guess Ulquiorra and I will deal with this thing then." He looked up at the now reformed beast man in front of them. "Yo, you're one ugly ass pig," he told the beast before drawing Pantera. "And I guess you've got absolutely no clue what I'm saying…" He chuckled. "It doesn't matter… let me show you what a true beast form should look like. Kishire Pantera," he said as he ran his left hand over the blade. Reiatsu spread out around him. Once it was gone he was standing there in his Resurrección. He raised a hand as the boar came rampaging towards him. Grabbing the beast by one of its long tusks, he tossed it aside.

Grab ... ... ... smack ... ... ... duck ... ... ... jump ... ... ... grab

"Who is he?"

Link turned towards Princess Zelda with a raised eyebrow. "He's my lover your highness… that is really all that will ever matter to you. Once Ganondorf is dead he is leaving, and he isn't coming back here. Your world doesn't suit him. You people is too weak for his tastes," he said as-a-matter-of-factly.

Zelda seemed somewhat taken back by his uncaring nature. Her blue eyes returned to the fighting for a moment. "He is very brutal," she pointed out.

Link shrugged. "He likes a good fight, and he's a feline so he tends to play with his prey when he can," he said without taking his eyes off his mate's agile form. Watching Grimmjow fight got his blood pumping. A big part of him wondered if he couldn't just drag the bluenet off and fuck him senseless.

"You know fighting this guy just makes me hungry," Grimmjow said suddenly as he stopped just above Link's head. "We should just chop him up and eat him."

"We can't do that," the blond said with a disgusted expression.

"Why not?" Grimmjow asked seriously considering the idea.

"He'll give us indigestion," Link said. He pointed over to the boar. "We can't eat that. He probably tastes horrible anyway."

Grimmjow looked over to the giant boar. It had long red hair and tail but its fur was a dark greyish colour. Its hands and feet looked more like they belonged on a carnivore than an omnivore. He guessed that the completely white eyes were a bit offsetting together with that bright blue mouth and tongue. "O.K. I guess you're right," he said as the beast hit the floor once more.

Ulquiorra had cast the monster aside and was currently charging up a javelin. He raised the glowing green weapon and aimed it at the white scar that went over the beast's chest.

The beast grunted in pain before its head fell limp to the floor.

Link stood up slowly. "I somehow doubt that it is over yet," he said. He placed a hand on Grimmjow's shoulder. "Ganondorf tends to be very hard to get rid off." He turned towards the beast's body as fire spread out over it. "Amazingly good idea Ganondorf use fire against the Elemental Master, will you," he said sarcastically. He turned towards his lover. "Can you get her highness out of here this might spread a bit? Just drop her on Hyrule Field somewhere," he asked.

Grimmjow sighed before reaching out and grabbing the girl. Both he and Ulquiorra disappeared from the room.

Link raised his staff and chuckled at the flames that now formed a very ugly face. "Just come at me Ganondorf," he said tauntingly. The fire charged forward and he beat down with his staff. "Oh, opps did I put you out I'm sorry," he said before laughing as he flamed away.

…

"Here comes the last wave," Link said as he landed next to Grimmjow. "I think I really pissed him off to be honest." He spun the staff around. "Zangeki Kage no Genzume," he said softly. Magic or Reiatsu if you prefer moved out around him for a moment. Once it was gone he was standing there with what looked like metal vambraces covering his forearms the metal continued up his arms almost al the way up to his shoulders in strange Twili-like patterns. Down towards his hands Neko-te joined with the vambrace and three claws shot out from the knuckles of each hands much like the bluenet's claws when he entered his Segunda Etapa. The claws looked more like talons though.

"So you can do it too," Grimmjow said as he reached out towards his lover.

Link turned his head towards him. "Yeah, Szayel helped me unlock it back when we were dealing with Midona," he said. He turned towards Ganondorf as the man appeared. "Let's just kill him now," he said.

A javelin appeared in Ulquiorra's hand as he took flight.

The other two started running towards the Gerudo King.

The man sneered at them superiorly. 'Do they truly think that I can be bested by such puny power?' he though as he drew his sword. He steered his horse towards them and sent out a bolt of magic at the ground to conjure ghost soldiers. The soldier rode on ahead of him. He smirked as they reached the fools on the ground.

And then the two men were gone.

Ganondorf pulled his horse in. His head turned up as a javelin made of pure energy descended on him. He sneered and reached out in a vain attempt to catch it only to have the staff pierce his hand.

Link landed on the horse's back and kicked the man off. "Bye-bye Ganondorf," he said happily as he landed claws first on the man's chest. By the man's head Grimmjow stopped. He left his resurrected form and placed Pantera against the Gerudo's throat. He slashed through the olive green expanse of skin swiftly as Link tore out with his claws ripping the man's chest wide open.

And so the Evil Dark King was no more.

Link looked over at Princess Zelda. "This is goodbye Princess," he said. "From now on your world of light and our world of so called shadows will be separated." He reached out and took his lovers hand. The bluenet nodded. He was more than ready to leave this world behind.

Link placed his hand against the Mirror of Twilight. Legends told that only the leader of the Twili could destroy the mirror but that wasn't true. He pushed his magic into the mirror and it cracked. "You'll have to do the rest," he said, turning to Ulquiorra.

The raven-haired man nodded slowly. Lifting a hand he charged up a Cero. Behind them, Grimmjow opened a Garganta. They moved into the familiar darkness and just before the portal closed Ulquiorra sent his Cero off.

The mirror would be no more once it hit.
