------------CHAPTER 12:Ganonlink------------
A black egg laid on the table,hatching as Burmet watched in excitement.His smile widened as the egg cracked and broke.Blood was flowing from the cracks,streaming down the shell on to the table.Burmet however knew that the blood wasn't coming from the hatchling ,it was more of a sign to show just how evil this creature would become.The blood was from all of the hylians,gerudos,gorons,kokiri,and zora that the original Ganon had killed.Then all of a sudden,the ground started to quake.
Link and the sages looked up in terror,as a wierd purplish beam of dark rays began blasting out of the top of Ganondorf's tower.In sync with the beam,was an earthquake unlike anyone had ever felt before.It was like being on a giangantic drum,as the the sages and him were being thrown almost twenty feet in to the air with every quiver of the soil.Giant cracks started opening in the ground,and streams of hot molten lava were gushing from them like a geysur.Droplets of the hot liquid were raining down on Link and the others,and all they could do was wimper in pain as the molten rock rained down on their skin.Durania,a goron who wasn't suseptible to lava,tried helping the others by plugging up the cracks with wooden four by fours from the horse range,but it proved to no avail.
Then it all stopped.The lava geysurs haulted,the ground came to an eerie calm,and the wild lightning was nothing more than pocketed flashes of light inside the clouds.It was as if someone had just deactivated some kind of weather switch.They all got up and looked around."Was it over?",they thought.Link knew better,and unsheathed his Helix Sword again.Something big was about to happen.
"Yes!Yes!YES!May the gods of the underworld inpower this being!HAHAHAHA"!Yelled Burmet in a ungodly,insane way.Then,as if there had just been a nuclear warhead set off,a giant flash of darkish red light came streaming from Ganon's tower.The flash of light reached from Gerudo Valley,all the way to Kakariko Village.It was seen from everywhere in Hyrule,even in caved up areas like Goron City.When it stoped,something truly terrifying happened.All of the dark clouds around Ganon's tower were sucked into it like a big vacuum.All of the powers of darkness surrounding Gerudo Valley were now being totally inclosed into Ganon's tower.The tower's windows seemed to be almost radiating some kind of strange black energy.
"You all must go now.I can't explain,just please leave Gerudo Valley as quickly as possible.Go,now"!Yelled Link to the others.Without a sence of doubt,they all went running to Hyrule Field.This was something Link had to do,he had to face his own destiny.With a nervous sigh,Link strode up the steps that led to the now glowing tower.Needless to say,he was scared out of his wits.He was even more terrified than he had been on his wedding day.However it was something he just had to do.
Burmet stared at the hatchling.He was everything Ganondorf wanted,except for one thing.He was supposed to be a perfect clone of Link,but he wasn't.He had devil red skin,and his hair was purple instead of yellow.And to top that out he had a strange sharp horn sticking out of the back of his neck,and his eye pupils were a menacing shade of yellow.Burmet didn't care though,as he thought that this creature's power by itself would be enough to fufill Ganondorf's dying wish.The creature stood up,and slowly got up to it's feet."Welcome to the realm of the living Test#001".Said Burmet."I hope that you have the programmed memory we gave you as an egg".Said Burmet."Yes,yes I do.I know all of information you taught me while I was incubating.But where's my creater Ganondorf"?Asked the creature.
"I'm sorry Test#001,but he was shortly killed by Link right after you were created".Said Burmet."Too bad,I would of liked to meet my creater,but oh well.However I have an idea.In order to honor my demised father,I shall name myself Ganonlink".Said the creature."That sounds like an intimidating name......I like it".Said Burmet."So where is this pethetic Hero of Time that i'm supposed to kill"?Asked Ganonlink."I don't know,but i'm pretty sure that him and his band of idiouts are probley crapping their shorts over you".Said Burmet.
The creature,now known as Ganonlink,slowly got up to his feet.Still dazed from his own birth,he stumbled but eventually got his balance."I have prepared your equipment for you master,it is on the counter over there".Said Burmet.Ganonlink went over and saw a black tunic that resembled Link's perfectly,and a small black cap that resembled Link's headwear.Ganonlink quickly put his clothes on,after all he had been naked in that egg forever.The polyester tunic felt good against Ganonlink's hard skin,and his hat gave him a large sence of power."I almost forgot about your boots master.They are over there next to the door".Said Burmet.Ganonlink looked over and saw two black boots with iron plating ,he quickly put them on.Even though they were about as heavy as Iron Boots,Ganonlink was so strong that the wieght hardly bothered him at all.
"And need not forget the final touch master.Your sword and shield are on the table".Said Burmet.Ganonlink picked up his sword.It was a long metal blade,with a widened diamond shaped point at the end of it.His shield was the shape of a vulture's foot,and the design on it was a red upside down triforce with black fire spewing out of each of it's three sides."Good work Bermet,did you make this yourself"?Asked Ganonlink."Why yes master.I used to be an expert craftsman before coming to your father Ganondorf".Said Burmet.
"He's coming Burmet.I can feel his foolish presence".Said Ganonlink,"Hmmm,this may be easier than I thought". "Master,I think you should.......",Burmet was then interupted in mid sentance by Ganonlink."Shutup Burmet,I can easily dispose of a weakling like him.I think you maybe overestimating his chances".Said Burmet."But master,he is much stronger than you must think.He was able to kill your father,the great Ganondorf".Said Burmet."Burmet,with all due respect twords dad,he was a weakling.It was no suprise to me that a stupid fool like him could sucumb to such an embarrasing fate.Imagine,him being killed by a common hylian".Said Ganonlink.Burmet just stared at him with awe.His heart was full of simple and blank hatred,he was nothing but a mindless clone.One so dark that he wouldn't even love his own father.
"But master,I only do this to warn you.He is no common Hylian,he is the Hero of Time"! Said Burmet,in a very worried manner."You know I guess you maybe right Burmet.His status as Hero of Time may take me a couple more seconds to dispose of him".Said a very cocky Ganonlink."Master,the reason your father failed is because he underestimated Link,and I fear you might be doing the same".Said Burmet."Burmet,you obviously don't know anything about the extent of my power.If you knew then you'd probley see that even if he is the Hero of Time,he isn't going to be any of a challenge to me.Now shutup or you will be my first victim"! Yelled Ganonlink angrilly."Now go to your bunk and wait for me to dispose of Link.He'll be here any second,so go,now"! Barked Ganonlink.Burmet,in sheer horror,ran as fast as he could to his living quarters.
Ganonlink began to hear footsteps come from outside the door,he knew who it was,but he just stood there.He stood there waiting ,and laughing at how pethetic this character was to come to his tower.And how pethetic Ganondorf was when he was slayed by such a weakling.The door then opened.Link stared at him in awe,for he looked just like the creature that had been haunting his sleep for the past three months.Link wasn't suprised though,as he would usually have some form of prophestetic dreams about an upcoming adventure.But the dreams he had were no normal dreams,at least compared to some of the other prophestetic dreams he had dreamt in the past.The ones about this creature were much darker,scarier,and realistic than any he had expierienced in his entire life.
"I suppose you must be the legendary Hero of Time eh"?Asked Ganonlink sarcasticly.Link just stood there and listened,not talking at all."You are the one who killed my creater Ganondorf,no"?Asked Ganonlink.Link quickly shook his head yes and continued to remain still.Ganonlink then got into a more serious face."Eleven years ago,you defeated my father Ganondorf in a different time flow,but the events that happened in that dimension of time were passed over to this one and Ganondorf was locked away in a prison known as the dark void between worlds.So you ended up getting sent back in time,to the time flow you are in today.However,just five years ago Ganondorf broke the seal and escaped from his prison.He seized control of the Gerudo once again,and silently hid away in this very tower,that coward.But,in all of that time he was divising a way to kill you.First he tried the idioutic idea of sending Gerudo assasians to try and kill you,but that was petty and stupid.Then he tried more ingenius plots,but those too didn't stop you.But then he came up with the perfect plan,a plan that would finally end you.And that plan was me".
"He quickly got together potions and concoctions and put them together in that boiling pot right over there".Ganonlink then pointed to a rotted out and old cauldron in a dusty corner of the room."He spent over two years searching and planning out the ingrediants for me,and when he found the last potion he found himself near Kokiri Village.I wouldn't blame him for destroying that pethetic village of yours,it sounds like it would have been fun".Link just stared at Ganonlink,now in an angry manor for insulting his now destroyed city of birth."And just as he had finally finished the serum that would later produce my egg ,you showed up and killed him.However even with Ganondorf gone,there was still his loyal servant Burmet.He finished the rest of it up,when he cooked my life serum and poored it into an empty hollowed out egg like object that had been painted black".
"And that's the story of my origin,and now that you have finally come I can live out my purpose.I shall have revenge for my father Ganondorf,and you will pay the price".Said Ganonlink."Are you finished"? Asked Link,disgusted."Why yes,and now that i'm done it time for you to die". Said Ganonlink. Link quickly drew his Helix Sword and reached for his Mirror Shield.At the same time Ganonlink reached over for his sword,which he had named the Drak Blade.
