A/N : And yes I do know that links mother was hyrulian. But when your
writing fan fiction you've got to expect a twisted truth no and then.
Chapter 2: tempers and tantrums.
Link waited until nightfall before seeking out the king.
The king looked up form his book as Link entered the library. "Can't sleep ether?" asked the king with a slight smirk. Link breathed out heavily and slumped down into a nearby chair. "I wish that was all." breathed Link. "No what brought me is more than that. I've received a messenger from a friend saying that an extremely hostile enemy is trying to force it's way on to hyrulian soil on the south east border." "How come my soldiers haven't reported yet." asked the king. "They are dead."
The blunt statement stunned the king, Link went on. "This enemy employs magic as their main form of attack." he explained to the confused old man.
"So what will we do about it?"
"We have no choice but to fight your majesty" "But how I don't see how we can defeat someone with magic link. None of us no how to use it." Link looked at the king and judged that it was about time he was told.
"That is not something you have to worry about your highness." Link assured him, "In our land there are six sacred temples. Each of those temples are protected by a race of people. Of those people one is chosen to represent their race as a sage. These are powerful all knowing people who when awaken can help drive an enemy force away. But they must be accompanied by the three chosen by destiny to hold piece's of the sacred triforce."
Six sages, forest, fire, water, spirit, shadow and light. As well as the one's of courage and wisdom." Link stopped seeing the confused look on the kings face.
"What happened to the one with the power piece?" asked the king.
"Ah, the one who held that piece no longer lives in this realm. He is dead because of his evil intentions, disposed of by the others." silence followed where Link dared not speak. When he did speak again it was to bid the king goodnight.
Link left the library and walked down the wide hall. He hadn't told the king of the other hero's of the races and his mind was whirring with images of what could happen if the dark prince was to find a way past the block on the border. He couldn't sleep so instead he sought out Zelda in her room.
****************
"Oh I hate this." Zelda was on a rampage through her room throwing pillows and even some of the useless ornaments that were used as decorations. She was sick of hiding her feelings. "Doing this wont help." Impa her nurse maid was standing by the closed door watching the princesses tantrum. "But did you see them," Zelda went on raging. "They look at me like I'm a piece of candy. Grrrrrrrrr." Her words became grumbles as she sat down on her bed arms folded in the middle of the storm of feathers from an exploded pillow.
"Are you finished yet?" asked the Sheikah sarcastically. "If I were you I would just stop worrying about that and begin to concentrate on this new evil that we've been feeling." What could it be?" asked Zelda looking up her face losing the hot flush of anger. It turned back to its normal pale pink as a thoughtful expression covered her delicate features.
At that moment there was a knock on the door and Link stuck his head inside. "Oh, hello Impa." he said dazedly. "I didn't know you were in the castle." Impa smiled at him and made to open the door all the way so he could enter. As soon as he got inside he noticed the feathers on the floor and raised an eyebrow. "Not another tantrum."
Until then Zelda had been to deep in thought to notice that link was there but now she looked up and cried out "Link". She jumped off the bed and ran over to throw a hug about his shoulders.
"Zel, none of that now I've come to tell you that we need the sages." said link as he gently pushed her out at arms length. "You must feel that evil power. It belongs to an evil man. The dark prince Baldor. He's been sweeping destruction through Tibia and Deneb for the last four months."
"So that's what it is." said Impa from the doorway. "I'll get the other sages tonight then, we don't have much time if he's this close we can feel him. Will you be right Link to take care of Zelda? We've had midnight intruders since you went to the Gerudo fortress." With that she left the room at high speed to summon the others.
**************
Prince Baldor was in a foul mood as he worked his way through the ruins of the watch tower only to come up against a nearly impenetrable magical barrier.
His army had stormed the watch tower in the dead of night and burnt it to the ground before anyone could leave to notify the royal family. But he hadn't counted on their being magical protection's. He could just see the mages holding the wall through the haze. There where five altogether. It was annoying that he couldn't knock the barrier down and it would take him a good two weeks to undo the bindings of the spell.
He scowled and kicked the nearest solider and stormed back to where he'd left his magic users. They'd better start now then.
