Hello everybody! Welcome back to my story! Now, I want to talk about a couple stories you should check out, you might just find them interesting! You can find them on my profile bio, but I will just list a couple now. One of them is called, "The End of All Things; Twilight Princess". It is a traditional OC getting sucked into Zelda because of a strange danger story, but with a twist. Somehow, someway, he is that danger. It doesn't explain how though. Another one is called, "The Dreamer". It is about two friends that have to go on a crazy adventure to gather all of the Smash Brother's Characters all over the world. I found it really interesting, and I'm following it right now! Who knows, you might find them mentioning me in some of the chapters! Alright, enough blabbing, let's get to it!
Chapter 10; The Attack
Link's POV
I quickly ran to Ordon Village, since my house was a small distance from it. I knew that the kids would get all of the adults riled up, since that they were serious ever since two years ago when they got captured. Malo was already serious though, he owned a freaking business! Sometimes I think he bears the Triforce of Wisdom instead of Zelda.
When I was about to get to the village, I was met with Rusl and his cannon, the barrel pointing right at me! I put my hands up and backed up slowly.
"Don't worry Link, I'll get that wolf for ya! When it gets a load of this, it will never see the light of day again!" Rusl seemed pretty excited, must have been bringing out the cannon again. Way back when Rusl was in the resistance during the Twilit Invasion, one of the others in The Resistance named Auru built a miniature canon for the raid on Princess Zelda's (or rather Ganon's) castle. Rusl was very impressed, and after Ganon was defeated, Auru gave Rusl a canon of his own! Auru told him to use it specifically for emergencies, but I've seen him take it out with him on trips from time to time. Now he was more ready than never to use it!
"False alarm Rusl, it was just the kids' imag'nations again. You can put the cannon away." I said, trying to calm him down.
Suddenly, Talo appeared from behind Rusl. "No way! I saw it with my own eyes! I'm not making this up!" he said.
"I know you aren't mak'n this up Talo, but it is all in your imagination." I said, trying to convince him that there wasn't anything there.
"Bu-but-Oh. I saw two other guys there too!" Uh oh, Aden and Midna! I was going to tell him that they were also his imagination, but then he sprinted past both of us and on the way to my house. "I'll prove it too!"
"Talo, wait!" I yelled to him. If he found Midna and Aden, then the secret will be out in a matter of seconds! I sprinted after him, gaining slightly every second. When we got to my house, he hopped onto the ladder and started to climb up. I was about to go after him, but then…
A. Freaking. Rock. I tripped on a large rock at the foot of my ladder. Why did that have to be there at the WORST POSSIBLE TIME?!
I got myself up, and practically flew up the ladder. I was met with Talo, Aden, and Midna all looking surprised, wide eyed at each other. I was too late to stop him from seeing them. At the time, I could only think of one thing. 'Goddesses of Hyrule, please help me'.
Talo turned to me and pointed to the two visitors. "See? See? I wasn't making it up!" he yelled. I had to make up an excuse, quick! "I-er-uh…" I stammered. I couldn't think to anything to say! I couldn't say that he was hallucinating, he could just go up to one of them and touch them!
"Liiink? Is everything alright up there?" Oh no, Rusl is on his way, what do I-
"WHAT IN TARNATION?!" Me and Talo turned to Rusl, who was staring into the path to the woods. "What is it Rusl?" I asked. I could use this to my advantage maybe? No, that was ridiculous, this could be serious! I hopped down to the ground again and ran over to Rusl.
"Is somethin' wro"- I didn't finish my sentence, as I saw what he was staring at. Bounding towards us, there was two Twilit Beasts side by side. Those things were back too?! I thought it was only Aden and Midna! My mind then thought back to when Aden was talking.
"Apparently, there was this guy named Zant that had terrorized the entire realm with the power of his 'New God', the Fierce Deity".
Of course, how could I have forgotten already?!
The Twilit Beasts were getting closer by the second, and neither of us have reacted. Talo, Aden, and Midna have joined us now. I had to do something! I glanced downward to Rusl's cannon, and grabbed it out of his hands. I aimed it at one of the beasts, and fired.
A large rock came rocketing out of the canon, and hit one of the Twilit Beast's face tablet things. The other one stopped to look at it, and its face tablet cracked off. After all of this time, I could finally look at its face, and I did not like it one bit!
It had weird tentacle hair braid things, and had two large fangs. The fangs would probably be as big as my hand, and was sharp enough to rip through the toughest of the Hylean armor! It had blacked out eyes, with there only being one tiny white dot in the center of it. Around the mouth, there was foam like what you would see from a rabid wolf.
It stared right at us, and screeched so loud that all five of us had to cover out ears. When it stopped, all of them were almost right in front of us! Talo was able to speak for all of us on this one.
"RUUUUUUUUN!"
We were all about to sprint to Ordon village, but a barrier suddenly appeared in front of us. Talo started to pound on it to see if it would break, but to no avail. All five of us were stuck with those two Twilit Beasts.
I handed Rusl his cannon, and said, "Here. You are going to need this!" Upon instinct, I reached to my back to grab my sword. But I left it in the house, I had nothing to defend myself with! The Twilit beasts were slowly stalking up towards us now, and Rusl was readying his cannon.
"Here Link!" I heard Midna say, and my steel sword and Ordon shield in my hands. To think, that after all of those years, she kept those. I got ready with my sword and shield and got into a battle stance. "Aden, you said that you were good with magic. So use that magic to protect Talo!"
Talo's POV
Link, Rusl, and the strange lady all started to attack the strange monsters, while the strange man stayed over with me. The strange lady and Rusl stayed at a distance, with Rusl shooting his cannon and the lady doing… Something. Link however, got right up to the monster and attacked it with its sword.
They were only fighting one though, one of the monsters was able to break away from the fight and started to run towards us. It was about to pounce on us, and I closed my eyes. The blow never came, but instead, the strange man saying, "Woah! Sorry dude, not today!"
I opened my eyes, and saw that the man was kneeling down with his hands outwards. I gasped, as I saw that both of us were now inside a blue… thing.
I started to freak out, because I had no idea what was going on! The monsters looked familiar, but I don't know where they were from. The man looked back towards me and said, "You alright there kid?" I only nodded in response, I was too shocked at what was happening.
"Okay, good." He put down his hands, and the thing disappeared. The monster was about to charge back at us, but then the man did something weird. He put his hand across his chest and closed his eyes. The monster began to run towards us again, and I ducked again.
Instead of an attack or a weird thing from the man, I heard a wail of pain. I opened my eyes again. The monster was slumped on the ground, and it wasn't moving. I decided to ask, "What the heck is going on?!"
We heard Rusl's cannon fire again, and we both turned to the others. They were all breathing heavy, as the other monster was lying on the ground also, knocked out from Rusl's rock. Suddenly, the two monsters exploded into tiny black squares and shot upwards into the air.
The barrier that surrounded us disappeared as well, and we all just stood in silence. I decided to be the one to ask, "What the heck were those things, and what just happened?!"
Everyone turned to me, and Link decided to speak up first. "Let's make this quick. Talo, Rusl," he pointed to the strange man and woman. "this is Aden and Midna." I knew that they weren't in my head! But, wait a minute. If they were real, then that meant the wolf was real too, right?
Aden suddenly gasped, and Midna turned to him. "Aden, what is it?"
"We need to get everyone out of here, now!" he yelled. He grabbed Midna's hand and Link's hand and ran to Ordon. After what just happened, I had to know what was going on. I ran after the three, and I could hear Rusl running behind me too.
I could hear a scream, then another, and another. I was scared by the screams, but I had to be strong, like Link! I ran faster, and managed to catch up with Link, Midna, and Aden. They were all frozen in place, and I saw why.
In front of us, there was multiple monsters that were each approaching the houses. There was green fire on some of them, and the waterwheel was destroyed. Right in front of us, but still at a distance, we saw a monster that was grasping Bo at the neck. He was clawing at the monster's gigantic hand, but then he stopped moving.
I dropped to my knees, as I just saw a monster kill Lila's dad. He threw him into what remains of the water wheel, and it got destroyed completely. I put my hands to my eyes, I didn't want to see this. I started to cry, I didn't want my friends to die!
"Link, I'm scared!" I said. I cried a little more, then I heard Link say, "Midna! Teleport Talo out of here, now!"
"O-okay, where?" she said. Link stuttered a little, then he yelled, "Kakiriko Village!"
"Okay!" Midna said, and things got quiet. There were no screams, no talking, no flames. I opened my eyes, and gasped. I was in Kakiriko village! How did I get here so fast?! I put my hands to my head, and thought to myself, 'What the heck is going on?!
Midna's POV
"Okay, he is gone. What do we do?" I asked quickly. Rusl appeared behind us, and gasped. I heard him whisper, "Holy Hylia".
"We need to help as many people as we can, if you find anybody, teleport them to Kakiriko." I nodded. He turned to Aden and Rusl, and said, "Aden, go with Rusl and defeat as many of those monsters as you can, now GO!"
We split up, Aden and Rusl took the east side while me and Link took the west. We first got to Sera's shop, and there was no Twilit Beast there. But the shop was caved inwards, and Sera was under all of that. We could see her, so Link automatically got the rubble off of her. I stood guard in case a Twilit beast came out of nowhere.
I turned back to Link, and Sera was out from under the rubble. I ran over to her, and she wasn't moving. I gasped, there was a sharp plank of wood impaled in her stomach. She was dead. I saw that Link was crying, he wasn't able to save her. A small meow came from our left.
We turned, and saw Sera's cat walking slowly towards us. It looked at both of us, then it looked at Sera. It slowly walked over to her, at stopped at her face. It let out a confused meow, and sat beside her. It soon began to lick her cheek, to see if she could respond, she didn't.
I then started to cry, how could Zant do something like this?! Just recklessly killing these innocent people without mercy?! "Get them both out of here." Link said, still crying. "She needs a proper funeral." I nodded and teleported Sera's corpse and her cat to Kakiriko. I stood up, we couldn't let anybody else die like she did.
Rusl's POV
We quickly rushed over to Hanch's house, and it was the few that was still somewhat intact. The front was completely torn open however, and inside we saw another monster that was about to attack Beth! I quickly aimed my cannon at the monster, and fired a rock. It didn't react quickly enough, and it slumped over, exploding into the little squares.
We rushed over to Beth, who was crying over a strangled Hanch. Aden gasped, and I gripped my cannon tighter. These monsters are All going to get what is coming for them!
I kneeled down towards Beth, who was wailing extremely loud now. "I-I'm sorry Beth." I said. She turned to me, with tears in her eyes. She suddenly hugged me, and began to cry even louder. "Th-they killed Dad and Mom!"
"Don't worry Beth, we will get you out of here." I said. She let go of me, and I heard Link and that Lady run up behind me. I stood up, and said, "Get them out of here. Both of them."
The lady Midna somehow got them out of there, and we split up again. Me and Aden rushed up to my wife's house, hoping that it wasn't too late. When we got up there, the front was once again torn open. Another one of those monsters was there, and she was chocking Uli!
"NOT TODAY!" Aden screamed at the top of his lungs. The monster turned around, and let go of Uli. She fell to the ground, and Aden rushed towards the monster. He had his left arm crossed over his chest, and the back of it was glowing a shade of gray. Then, something crazy happened.
Aden in his entirety started to glow gray, and he somehow started to run faster than he was. When he got to the monster, he jumped abnormally high, and landed on the monster's weird stone tablet with one foot. Then, he jumped again and spun around in mid-air to face the monster's back, and quickly lashed out his arm. A large, golden shockwave appeared as he did so, and when it hit the monster's back, it let out a large wail, and slumped to the ground.
Instead of it exploding into little squares, it started to shrink. It kept shrinking until it started to glow golden. When it stopped, in the monster's place was, Jaggle?!
There was no time for that, I turned around and ran towards Uli. I bent down and checked to see if she was still breathing. Thank the goddsses, she was still alive. I turned to the three kids, Malo Colin and our newborn son, Cal. Thankfully, they were all fine too.
"Kids, come on! We need to get out of here!" I yelled. They all ran out of the house, and I picked up Uli. Aden picked up Jaggle, and we ran down the hill towards Link and that woman. The woman actually had Pergie's Dog in her arms, but there was no Pergie in sight. Colin ran over to Link and hugged him, he was obviously afraid. Just like Malo, this was actually surprising because this was the actual first time that he showed any other emotion, ever.
"Kids, my friend Midna will get you guys to Kakiriko village, be safe there. We will get the rest of the villagers there too." Link said. The kids nodded, then Midna teleported them out of here, including Pergie's dog.
"All that is left is the Ranch, with any luck we will find Lila and Fado there as well!" I told everyone. We all ran upwards to the Ranch. As we were running, I caught a glimpse of inside Bo's house. There was nothing in there. Lila had to be at the ranch, she couldn't be anywhere else.
Aden's POV
All four of us were running up to Ordon Ranch, then the stampede came along. We saw all of the goats from the ranch rushing to escape the monsters that were at the Ranch. I had to act quickly! I backed up to everyone else, and used Nayru's Love around all four of us. Some of the goats rammed into the crystal at first, but then they all just went around us. When they all left, I released the shield. I was tired, but I had to keep going!
We ran up towards the ranch, and we saw three Twilit Beasts backing up a girl and a horse to the wall. "Excuse me lad." Rusl said, stepping in front of me. He then got on one knee and aimed his cannon at one of the Beasts. It hit one, and it exploded into Twilit particles.
The other two turned to us, and forgot about the girl completely. They both ran to us, and something strange happened. A strange glow started to come from Midna's hand, a gray one. Just like I did earlier, she started to completely glow gray, and yelled out, "YOU SHALL NOT HARM US!"
She thrust her hand outwards, but nothing happened. Or so I thought. The Two Twilit Beasts were frozen in place, not moving at all. She then raised her hand skyward, and the two Twilit Beasts let out a loud wail. Twilit squares came from the two beasts, and into Midna's hand. The Twilit Beasts began to shrink, until they were nothing.
The first Twilit Beast disappeared altogether, but the other one was a different story. It continued to shrink, then when it was about the size of one of us, a golden glow came from it. When it disappeared, in its place was a strange man that looked about my age with brownish hair.
Link rushed over to the girl and the horse, while Midna had just kept staring at her hand. "What is?"
"I should have known. Midna, you have the other half." I said. She stared at me like I was crazy and said, "What do you mean?"
"There is another piece of the Triforce now, the Triforce of Magic." I said.
3rd person POV
A dark figure looked over the Ordon providence, and scoweled as he felt the last couple presences vanish. They had escaped again, and there had been survivors. The other figure appeared, and said, "My god, I appologi"-
The stronger figure released an energy blast to the other figure. The energy blast wouldn't kill him, but it would cause lots of pain. The smaller figure constantly yelled in pain.
"I told you to LEAVE NO SURVIVORS!" the stronger figure yelled.
"My god, Forgive ME!"
"No, you shall learn your lesion. The three are weak right now, both physically and mentally. As soon as I find them, they shall be killed. All of Hyrule shall die, and they will regret ever sealing me away!"
To be honest, I am a little surprised to this chapter myself. I just felt my brain and my fingers doing all of the work, all of the ideas just came to me as I went along. Well, things took the turn for the ABSOLUTE TERRIBLE! And it looks like there have been some deaths also. I suppose it is time to leave the chapter here on a somber note. So, make sure to Read, Review, and Share this with your friends everyone. Bye, I guess.
