Prologue ( what happened last time)





Darunia grabbed a horn and blew into it. The noise was deafening. In a few moments a young Goron came into the room and immediately got into a attack stance. " What happened father, did they escape" he asked. Darunia laughed. " No my son, I would like to introduce you to someone. Link this is my son..Link." Link looked at Darunia and Darunia nodded in agreement. " Yes Link I named him after you. After the man who save all of the Goron race". " I think I am going to be sick" Ganondorf said. Link looked at Goron Link and extended his hand. "Please to meet you" he said. The young Goron looked tentatively at him then at his father who nodded approval. The young Goron looked at him in awe. " It's really you, after all these years I finally get to meet the great Link; the man who single handedly defeated the Fire dragon Volvaga. The hero who fought the hideously vile man Ganondorf and won. The hero who saved all of Hyrule. " Now I know I am going to be sick" Ganondorf retorted. The young Goron looked over at Ganondorf and then looked at his father. " I thought you told me this was that same Ganondorf". " I did and he is" Darunia told his son. " Then why" the young Goron began. " Sit down my son" Darunia sighed, " your life is about to change forever."



Chapter 5



When Darunia was done telling the story as he had heard it to his son the young Goron Link sat there for a long time. Link did not want to pester his namesake, but they had to be going. Link looked around the room waiting for all of this to sink in with the young Goron. Link noticed Ganondorf sitting in the shadows. He was looking at something beyond the sight of Link. What was he looking at? Finally the young Goron spoke. " This is very hard to swallow. You mean to tell me that this thing is even worse the him?" The young Link said as he pointed to Ganondorf. At that moment Ganondorf snapped out of his trance and looked at young Link. " Yeah, what a kick in the teeth huh." Ganondorf chuckled. Link frowned. He knew that Ganondorf was going to be trouble, he just hoped he would not upset to many people. Ganondorf got up and walked over to Link. " We need to talk" he said. " What's wrong" Link asked. " Not in front of these guys" Ganondorf said in a very hushed whisper. " Listen Ganondorf, I know you don't know or like these guys; but Darunia is my sworn blood brother. Whatever you have to say to me you can say in front of him. That goes for his son as well. If we are to succeed in this quest we must trust everyone in our party." " Except for me right" Ganondorf retorted. Link was about to say something and then knew that it was a rhetorical question. Ganondorf moved to his seat and sat down. Link went over to Darunia and said that they should be alone for a few minutes. Darunia nodded and sent for a few of this fellow Gorons to shut the door and let no one in until he come to tell them otherwise. The two Gorons looked apprehensively at Ganondorf and then back at Darunia. " I will be alright" he said noticing their apprehension. They nodded and left, shutting the door.

" So what is this all about" Darunia asked Link. Link looked over at Ganondorf and said " Why don't you enlighten us all". Ganondorf looked at all of them and then stood up. " I have not told you how I was spotted yet outside the Village. I was sitting there waiting for you to do whatever it was you wanted to do inside. Why you would ever ask these creatures for help I will never know. But that is neither here nor there. So as I said, I was sitting outside when that feeling of fear hit me again. It was much closer this time and I needed to see what it was. It was not as strong as I had felt it in the realm, but it was there. I could sense it coming from a certain area. So I slowly headed towards it. When I arrived at the spot it was emanating from I found myself on top of Death Mountain. There I saw a Goron preforming a bizarre ritual. I recognized it as a summoning spell, but one unlike I had ever seen or heard before. I tried to get closer but I slipped on a rock and fell forward. The Goron stopped what he was doing and looked at me. At first I was worried that he would start screaming, but he just smiled at me. I tried to summon my magic, but he hit me with a magical blast that makes mine look like a firecracker. When I awoke I was here." Darunia stared at him as did his son. Link knew that although Ganondorf could not be trusted to always tell the truth, he was not lying about this. Darunia on the other hand was furious. " How dare you accuse one of my own people of working with the enemy. I should crush you like a soft fruit. Link you can't seriously believe this." Link looked at Darunia, he wanted to say he didn't, but his look gave him away. Darunia was even more livid. " You call yourself a friend. A friend would not side with this fiend." Link was about to speak when Ganondorf stepped forward. " I never accused any of your people of anything, except for being hard headed. What I said was I saw what looked like a Goron. It could be a imposter, like you thought Link was here. What I am saying is that you must be careful. Goron or no, there is someone here who is not what he seems. As for crushing me like a soft fruit, remember this my friend. When you were squeezing the life out of Link here, I pulled you off. I could have incinerated you without breaking a sweat. So if you want to get into semantics, then I believe I win. Now the purpose of telling you this, was that while you all were talking, I felt the same thing I did when I found that thing that looks like a Goron." Darunia looked embarrassed. He knew that Ganondorf was right, and he hated that. " So what do you suppose we do." he inquired. Ganondorf looked to Link. Link shook his head, "I don't know yet. Just be on the lookout I guess." The younger Link spoke up, " what should we look for?" Link shook his head and looked at Ganondorf. Apparently he didn't know either. " What did the Goron look like" inquired Darunia. " I don't know" replied Ganondorf, " You all look the same to me. Like a heap of rocks." Link winced at the comment, but apparently Darunia and Link ( Goron) didn't hear it or ignored it. "This is incredible, to think that one of our own people might be working for someone that's worse then you Ganondorf". Link look at Ganondorf waiting for him to incinerate Darunia. To Links surprise Ganondorf smiled. Not a sadistic or a evil smile, just a smile. " Too true Darunia. I will say this however. It maybe possible that this Goron is not acting on his own accord." " What do you mean" little Link said. " I mean this. When I was trying to take over this world, I placed spells on people so they would do my bidding. It is possible that this thing we are trying to stop is controlling one of your people." Darunia looked surprised. Ganondorf was right. Maybe this Goron was under some kind of spell. " Is there a way to tell" Darunia inquired. " There is" Ganondorf replied. " All we have to do is...." At that moment there was a tremendous crash followed by the shouts and screams of people in the cavern. The two Gorons who were standing at the door rushed in. " We know you said no one was to enter, but we are being attacked." They said out of breath. " By who" demanded Darunia. " By some kind of monster. It broke though one of the cavern walls and is laying waste to the village inside." Darunia looked at Link who looked at Ganondorf, who shrugged and said, "Never mind". " What are we going to do" asked little Link. " What else" replied Ganondorf, " Go beat up the bad guy." Link unsheathed his sword and nodded in agreement. They looked at each other and then rushed into the village to face, whatever it was.
