The Legend of Zelda: Time of Darkness
Chapter 10: The Beginning of the End

Notes: Finally, I have a better chapter title.
Regardless of the title, this is NOT the last chapter. However, I can tell you right now, pig Ganon WILL NOT make an appearance.

Disclaimer: Nintendo owns all characters in my little story.

Flashback to Last Time:

Sheik lowered her heightened arms "I cannot fight you Link." Sheik announced.
"I cannot fight you either" came Link's response.
"WHAT?" Ganondorf madly yelled. The Gerudo King charged up a ball of energy and sent it soaring towards the two warriors. Link was able to dodge, but Sheik was hit. Link ran quickly over to where Sheik had been hit, and when the dust cleared, lying there was not Sheik, but an unconscious princess Zelda. He dragged her to safety and looked up at Ganondorf.

"You monster! How could you do such a thing! You know, this means war!" Link shouted, rage present in his voice… It was clear, that this was indeed, The Beginning of the End…



Link went to take out his sword and frowned, he'd forgotten Zelda had thrown it into the wall out of reach.

Link pulled out his longshot and fired it above, and to the left of the Master Sword. Link pulled it out before detaching the longshot from the wall. Link kicked back from the wall and landed.

In front of him was the most evil being around: Ganondorf, king of thieves.

Ganondorf stood there, 6 foot 7, with a look that could send almost anyone into hiding. He pulled out a sword equal in length to the Master Sword, and held it in front of him with two hands for extra power.

Link held the Master Sword in front of him with his left hand, and took out, and held his shield with his right.

Ganondorf caught Link of guard and charged first, Link, who had quick reflexes, was able to block Ganondorf's sword with his own.
Ganondorf overpowered Link though, and sent him flying headfirst into a wall. Link dizzily got up and shook his head a few times.

"Man, this guys too strong!" Link thought as he tried thinking of someway to stun him, and remembered Zelda's words,

"Here is a weapon that can penetrate the Evil King's defenses... The power given to the chosen ones... The sacred Arrow of Light!!!"

Link pulled out his longshot and aimed it far across the room, and fired. Link soared to the wall, detached, and landed. Link pulled out his bow and Light arrows, and aimed it at Ganondorf's stomach. The arrow hit his stomach and he fell to the ground in pain, also blinded by the light. Link ran over and pulled out the Master Sword. He started cutting everywhere, first in the most important places. Link cut his forehead, his chest, and stomach, before The King of Evil threw him back once again, with enough force to send Link flying into another wall half-way across the room, face first.

Link got up slower this time and held his head for a few seconds. It was then; he noticed that his forehead was badly bleeding. Ganondorf was profoundly bleeding, almost everywhere. In fact, Ganondorf was almost completely red from the chest down.

Link once again pulled out his Light arrows and fired. He ran over to the stunned Ganondorf and slashed even more places, by his rib cage, across his neck.

"How thick is this guy's skin? This guy's skin is thicker then Darunia's!!!" Link thought as he continued to hack away at Ganondorf. Ganondorf pushed Link away again, but couldn't summon the strength to send him even half as far. Link hit the ground with a thud. Link stood up and looked at Ganondorf. He was on his hands and knees hacking up at least a pound of blood.
"How the heck could the King of Evil be beaten by a kid?" he managed to choke out before falling to the floor, seemingly dead.

Zelda was just waking up.

"Ugh, Link, what happened?" Zelda weakly asked, before standing up.

"I think I killed Ganondorf." came Link's reply.

Little did they both know that Ganondorf was summoning the power of the triforce…

They soon found out when the tower began to shake.

"Link, we've got to get out of here, and quick!" Zelda began,

"With his last breath, and the power of the triforce, he is trying to kill us in the tower's rubble!!!"

"Oh, my God! Let's move!" Link shouted over the rumble of the collapsing tower.

"OK, follow me!" Zelda yelled.

Though they had little knowledge of what terror awaited them at the bottom…




Will the next chapter be the last? You decide!
