Chapter III: Great Losses
A dark, green figure walked forward upon Gannondorf. She wore cloak as green as her eyes, which shined darkly upon the fallen man. Little lights flew around her, almost as flies to a corpse. She paid no regard to them; as if they were a curse she was used to. She stood not even 5 feet tall, but she stood as if she was proud.
"Gannondorf, do you know I?"
Gannondorf, meanwhile, still rubbing his eyes from the blinding flash, coughed once or twice, here and there, and then stood up tall, his eyes restored. He looked around the trees, searching for something; Link quickly dived into the hidden darkness of broken branches and leaves. Suddenly his attention turned quick. A smirk cracked from his face.
"Guardian of the Forest, Saria."
"Ah. You aren't as foolish as you appear, you know?"
Link winced. He knew such a small temper of Gannondorf's would not take such an insult too lightly.
"Too bad. Disruption of Guardians can upset the balance of life, here on Hyrule, you know."
Saria quickly smiled.
In a flash, Saria collapsed, her body crooked, lying at the feet of Gannondorf. The body made an immense thud when it fell.
'Now is the time.' Link repeated to himself.
Gannondorf looked around into the tree's smiling.
"She is dead, Link. Dead! She's gone! You're first friend. I killed her."
Almost immediately, the tree to Gannondorf's right shook and out-bursted a chain. The chain's hook stabbed into the trunk of the tree north of the tall man in black armor. Link burst through in a green flash, and before he arrived at his destination of the tree, he let go of his prized Hookshot; it stuck into a nearby tree.
"You."
At the sound of that word, Saria quickly jumped up and turned around. The lights around her still sway as they had been. Gannondorf's smile stood up adamantly, and a hood flipped over Saria's face.
Link gasped in horror.
"Father, such a foolish boy he is."
"That is true, daughter. Saria."
"No! Saria! Wake up!"
Link quickly grabbed his bow and slung it over his arms, and quickly removed an arrow from his quiver. He softly chanted to himself:
Dyddia lijh Korj-
Goran medya ee-
Dyddia, dyddia, liht.
"Light, come to my arrow!"
In a quick flash, an ominous light glowed around the tip of the arrow.
"Let my aim... be true."
The arrow soared through the air, screaming like a hawk, and it stuck into the ground before Saria and Gannondorf. They both quickly tilted their heads down to see, and their smirk's shattered.
A huge flash of light, lightning falling down everywhere and beams trying to escape the ground forced Link to shield his eyes. After the light died down, Saria was on the grass, her skin flashing with color. Gannondorf appeared to be weakened, but he still stood up adamantly. Link yelled a fierce battle cry and ran towards Gannondorf, his sword prepared in a thrusting position.
"Die Link. You caused me so much pain, and now you will die. Death."
Gannondorf smirked slightly. He raised his bloody hand, dusty and scarred. Bright blue flashes appeared in front of his hand, now more profusely then before, until they formed a compact ball. The sphere flashed black as his armor, and it grew to the size of a boulder. The ground in front of him had caved in, and rocks were flying everywhere. The sphere then formed into 3 spheres, each a third of the old form. They twisted among themselves until they were perfect spheres. With one large final flash, the blast took off from Gannondorf's hands, spiraling towards Link.
Link smiled.
Suddenly, he came to a complete stop, his heels digging into the ground as he jumped backwards into the air, his face now away from Gannondorf's. He ran at the tree with his Hookshot and then he quickly ran up the tree, as fast as he could, about to fall down, he then ripped the Hookshot out and while he was falling on his back, he aimed and fired. The Hookshot went past the blasts, past Gannondorf, and then clutched to a tree behind him. Link quickly soared through the air, the large dark blasts nearly hitting him, he then grabbed his sword in his left hand firmly, and then as he soared past Gannondorf, he slashed his chest and at his side.
Gannondorf collapsed.
Link grinned. "Gannondorf, you never did learn from your mistakes."
Link then landed at the base of the tree, where he sheathed his sword and put away his Hookshot. He began to run, run as fast as he could. He didn't know where. He just had to. A force unknown pushed him to him; so mysterious to even himself he could not realize it. He wasn't even sure of what its nature was... He just realized he had to go... Back to his house.
"What the h-? The blas-!"
Then he was engulfed with black flames and energy, burning him all over which made him yell from pain. He realized that the blasts were powerful enough to travel this far and more, they had been the energy balls Gannondorf once used on him before.
'I'm going to die..'
'Such a great loss..'
'What a fool I've been..'
Link then fell into a deep sleep.
