Ganon looked up at the yellow eyes which glared down at him. He looked around one of his swords, hoping to attack.
"What do you take me for?" Majora swiped down with his tentacles, knocking the sword away. He wrapped them around Ganon's throat and began to lift him into the air, squeezing tightly. "You are all so pathetic, marveling at the power of the godesses . Do you see it now? That I am far superior to them? That you have no hope? Nothing you can do now will save you. Why don't you just surrender?"
Ganon grabbed Majora's arm. "I...cannot. I don't.....surrender.....ever." Ganon took hold with both hands, planted his feet in the ground, and tossed Majora over his shoulder. Majora slammed against the ground as Ganon gasped for air. He picked up his swords. Sheik lept in between them.
"I'll try to destract him. Give an all-out attack once you get the oppurtunity." Ganon nodded. Majora pulled himself up, as Sheik gathered her strength. "Take this, monster!" An aurora of light surrounded her, as she fired an array of blasts from her body. Majora countered with blasts of his own. Ganon crept along the side, as Majora slowly walked forward, still holding off Sheik's assualt.
"Fools. This is almost too pathetic. When will you under..." He looked out the corner of his eye to see a massive wave of fire. Majora tryed to guard, but Ganon's blades cut deep into his body, flinging him back to the ground. Majora stayed on the ground, his blood beginning to flow. "...Ha...ha" Ganon began to back away. "......hahahahahaha!!!!" Majora's arm started swelling up, then burst, sending tentacles at both of them, too many to count. The two were caught off guard, "HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!" He grasped them both, twisting his appendages around their entire bodies. Neither Ganon or Sheik could break his hold. "You are nothing to me!!!" Majora pumped energy through his tentacles, zapping Ganon and Sheik. "Hahahaha!!!!"
"Help...."Sheik said weakly. "Link....help...us..."
Link's eyes opened abruptly. He looked around, thinking he had heard something. A chill ran up his spine.
"What was that? Who...how..." Link took a breath and exhaled. "Just my imagination." Link was ready to stretch out again, when he heard a voice.
"....fool." It whispered. "....you fool. what are you doing?"
"What the...who is that?"
"......fool......impudent fool." Link felt a strange sensation come over his body. He looked at the back of his hand, seeing the Triforce glowing brightly. There was a brilliant flash of light, and then darkness again.
"What was that?"
"Fool!!!" The voice screamed out. Link spun around, only to feel a slap sting his face. Holding his jaw, Link looked up. Standing before him was a beautiful woman, whose body shone with gold. Her hair flowed down her back like a golden river. Link looked into her eyes, which seemed to be full of rage. "You fool! What are you doing!?"
Link stared in awe. "You're....you're....Farore?"
"And you are the so-called 'Hero of Time?' What do you think you are doing?"
"I...I...I didn't..."
"Majora. He has you under some sort of spell, doesn't he? How could you give in? How could you allow him to control you so easily?"
"Control me?"
"Yes. This portal he has trapped you in. Why did you let him do this?"
"Do what?"
She grabbed Link's shoulders and shook him. "Snap out of it! This has gone on far enough. Can't you see it, Link? He has fooled you. He trapped you in the darkness, then forced your own thoughts to betray you. I just can't believe you fell for it."
"How...how are doing this? I thought you were trapped."
"Link." She pulled him close, looking right into his eyes. "Do you think this is real? Do you think any of this is real? I am merely an image of myself. I'm not truly here. Do you understand?"
"I think so."
"Good. Listen to me. You have to stop this. If you don't help them, then all is lost. They cannot do this on their own. They need you, Link."
"They...they need me?"
"Yes. You have to go. Only with the completed Triforce can Majora be defeated. Please, Link, help them."
"How? How do we defeat Majora?"
"Together. Alone, Din has more than enough power to destroy him. However, Majora can recover from almost any wound. His weak spot is buried deep within his body, and only Nayru can find."
"So how do I help them?"
"Majora is far too horriying. One of his greatest powers is fear. He limits their abilities. Only you, only I, can stop this. It is courage that will save them. Courage so immense that it can actually strike fear into Majora's heart."
"I don't know."
"Link! Are you the Hero of Time or not?"
"...I don't know anymore."
"Link, please. Trust yourself. Stop questioning. That is only Majora trying to stop you. He fears you, Link."
"He does?"
"Yes. He fears what lies deep within you. You remember, don't you? What happened in Termina."
"The mask?"
"Yes. He told you that power was evil. He only wanted to discourage you from using it. Please, Link, stop questioning it. You must use it."
"...............I'm sorry."
"What?"
"I'm sorry. Sorry that I wasted so much time. Sorry that I was so weak."
"Link."
"Help me get back. Help me save them."
"You're sure?"
"Yes!"
Farore smiled. "Good." She closed her eyes and took Link by the hand. "Don't waver, Link. Stand strong and unite the others. Work together." Her body changed into a brilliant light and surrounded Link.
"Thank you, Farore." Link felt invigorated. He felt renewed. Link pushed upward, letting Farore's courage engulf him. He could almost feel his body changing as the tiny hole come into view. Through it he could see Majora torturing the two of them in his grasp. "Zelda!!! Ganondorf! Hold on! I'm coming!" A massive light flowed through the hole and burst out into the open.
"Die! Fools, you cannot....." He caught a glimpse of the light. "What?" Link stood before Majora. He held a giant, double-bladed sword, with the blades twisted around each other. His tunic had changed to black, with armor plates strewn across it. Small, colored marks were on various parts of his face, with white hair poking out of his hat. "No.....you...you've.."
"I've returned."
