The Lone Wolf
Chapter Two: An average day?
In the Hyrule castle courtyard, Link, Zelda, Tatyl, and Navi, were lounging about.
Zelda was sitting on the stone steps talking to Tatyl. Link was lying in the snow, his
hands behind his head, with Navi floating above his head.
"So then, Link popped on this new mask, and he turned into a really powerful entity.
Majora had absolutely no chance! I think it was called the fierce deity mask, or
something like that."
Zelda looked impressed. "Wow, really? Link, can you show me?" She asked Link,
who was half asleep.
"Hmm?" Link looked up, his eyes half closed with sleep.
"Zelda wants a demonstration of the fierce deity mask." Tatyl explained.
Link, stretched, yawned, got up, and reached into the item bag that he'd put on the
ground. He pulled out the mask, slapped it on his face, and it almost instantly absorbed
into him, and he transformed into the fierce deity.
Zelda looked the new, armored warrior before her, and her eyes went wide. "Wow!
The power I'm feeling is immense, Gannon would have run off with his tail between his
legs if he's seen you like that! Literally!"
Link chuckled. He held his hands together and formed the Deity's sword between them,
and slashed the air, sending a bolt of energy flying at a wall.
Impa appeared in the path of the bolt, a look of shock crossed her face, and she barely
managed to duck it in time.
"Impa!" Zelda cried out. Link's pale, pupil-less eyes went wide, and he ran over to the
shadow sage.
"It's ok, I'm not really- WHAT THE HELL?" She yelled when she saw Link.
"Impa, it's only Link!" Zelda said.
"Link? Is that you?"
"Who else would it be?" Link said, his voice same as always.
Impa shook her head. "Well, It's a new look for you link, but I didn't know there was a
war going on."
"What? Link asked.
"The face paint Link." Navi explained.
"Oh, that." Link took off the mask, and instantly lost the armor and face paint, and his
pupils returned to view.
Impa realized what it was now. "Oh, that's one of those masks you told us about." She
shook her head. "Anyway, there's another band of monsters in the lost woods that you
might want to take care of."
"The lost Woods? I thought it was secure now Gannon was gone." Link asked.
"Yeah, I mean the forest outside the influence of the shrub and the temple."
"Really? How do I get there?" Link asked.
"You have to climb over the Deku trees roots and get behind it, the path starts there.
Monsters that leave Hyrule and can't handle the Gerudo have to sneak by that way."
"I see. When were they spotted?" Link asked
"Just yesterday. Saria told me to tell you."
"Oh, I'd better get going then." Link said, and looked at the bag of items in his hand.
"This time I won't use anything but my sword and shield. It's been a long time since
I've had a challenge."
"Link…" Zelda glared at him.
"Don't worry Zelda, it's nothing serious… Impa?" Link asked the sage.
"Only a group of Dinalfos soldiers, they looked like they were well armed, but nothing a
Hylian shield and a sword wouldn't be able to handle."
Zelda glared. "Link, do me one favor, just to set my mind at ease, Take the mirror
shield with you if they have a magician, ok?" she requested.
Link shrugged. "That's that then. I'll leave my bag in my old house in Kokiri forest.
Impa, you can get the ocarina from there after I'm gone." He pulled out the ocarina of
time and played the minuet of forest, and disappeared in a flash of green.

Two weeks later, Link was working his way through the dense forest east of the lost
woods. The tree trunks were very close here, but the underbrush was as bare as
everything else in the wintry nighttime landscape.
He was wearing thicker clothes, furs, gloves and a cloak to keep warm.
He was close on the Dinalfos' tails. In fact, he could even smell the camp-fire.
After a half an hour of walking, he came on top of the group of monsters, and picked up
a handful of snow and threw it at one of the lizard men.
The Dinalfos looked up sharply. Link drew his sword and waved them on, and they all
attacked him.
After 5 minutes, they were all lying there, slashed open in a dozen places, none of them
alive.
Link shook his head. "That was pathetic, I was hoping for a good fight!"
"Then you'll find one with me!" a voice behind him called.
Link Whirled around and saw a Wizzrobe standing there, a staff strapped to his back.
"Ok, this is new…" Link said, just before the Wizzrobe fired a blast of energy at him.
Link raised his mirror shield and deflected the blast, and charged at the Wizzrobe, and
slashed hard, yet the Wizzrobe teleported before he could connect. And Link's sword
dug into a tree.
"HA HA HA! You can't hit me!" The Wizzrobe taunted him.
Link wrenched the blade out of the tree. "Ok, I was asking for a good fight…"
The Wizzrobe proved to be a competent opponent, he was impossible to hit, as he
always teleported when he was approached, but he couldn't hit Link because of the
shield.
Link was getting tired of the routine of deflect, slash and miss, so he tried to psyche out
his opponent.
"You're pathetic Wizzrobe, those energy waves are useless against me. Don't you have
anything worthwhile? Of not, you can just give up now, because I'll surely outlast you!"
He yelled.
The Wizzrobe rematerialized before Link, his eyes glowing red.
"PATHETIC? I'LL SHOW YOU!" he screamed, and whipped the staff off his back
and held it before him horizontally and chanted.
"Lupu zeru zenu ZA! Kupo vero garo HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" He finished off with a
loud cry, and a bolt of power unlike any Link had ever seen came flying from the staff…
It looked like the ghostly head of a wolf.
"WHAT THE?!" He yelled in alarm, and raised the Mirror shield to deflect it.
The bolt of energy lost form when it hit the shield, flowed around the shield like water,
collected on the other side, and slammed Link in the gut.
The energy flowed through Link's body, leaving the sensation of fire on and inside his
body. The pain was numbing, but after several moments, it abruptly stopped.
Link gasped for breath for a minute, on his hands and knees, then looked up at the
Wizzrobe.
The Wizzrobes eyes were glowing violently white, he was in panic, shocked that his
new spell had failed him.
"What the? It didn't work?" he shook the Staff, and saw the etched marking's glow, and
fade, leaving the staff untouched.
Link was furious. He charged like a berserker, and was about to cleave off the
Wizzrobe's head, had the robed monster not managed to cast his little energy wave right
in his face, and teleport away.
When Link's sight returned a minute later, he found the Wizzrobe gone. Link shook
with rage, swung his sword at a tree trunk, and cut the whole thing down in one blow.
"Damn that little monster! If I find you, you are DEAD!"
