Author's Note: You get to meet another Sage in this one and Link learns
all about Impa!
" What is it Link?" Malon asked in a worried tone.
" Listen to this!" Link read the letter.
' Dear Link,
The evil has broken the seal on the Shadow Temple. I have gone to protect my temple. If Saria is with you, keep her safe; don't let her out of your sight! We Sages are in danger. As the Sage of the Shadows, I can feel when evil is lurking in the shadows. I tried to find Darunia, but he has gone missing. I then traveled to Zora's domain and found no trace of Ruto. I'm not sure if I can handle this evil alone, Saria will know if I need her help. This time, we can't use your help, Link.
Signed,
Impa'
" AND WE JUST LOST SARIA!!!!" Link yelled.
" Link, I have a plan."
" Malon?" Link looked at her.
" Find Saria first, then you can tell if Impa needs help," Malon suggested.
" That would work out great if WE DIDN'T NEED IMPA TO FIND SARIA!!!!!"
" Oh, then if that's the case," Malon started, " I have no idea!"
Link and Mido face faulted.
" Uh, where did they go."
" Malon, can Mido borrow that horse?" Link asked after getting up off the ground.
" Sure, talk care of him!" Malon waved good-bye to her companions.
************************
" Why, how did you get here?" Saria asked the two Sages.
" Well, I'm not sure how Ruto got here, but let me tell you, getting taken by that man was horrible!"
" That man...Oh! You mean the Sage of Darkness don't you?" Saria asked.
" Sage of Darkness? Why no, I meant the Sage of Dragons!"
" What?! Oh great, there's two free?!" Saria sighed.
" Actually, there are three!" Ruto said sadly.
" What do ya meen three?!" Saria asked, a little agitated.
" I was taken by the Sage of Wind!"
A loud slam of a door caused the room to fall dead silent.
" Well, how are we feeling today?" the Sage of Darkness asked.
" Oh shut-up Raven!" Saria yelled.
" WHAT?! How dare you!" the Sage held a blast to Saria's back. " Even if you're in there and I'm out here, this can still make contact."
" I'ld like to see you try!" Saria concentrated her energy to protect herself.
" So be it!" he shot the blast at her.
Saria screamed as the attack smacked against her and threw her forward. Her protective shield hadn't appeared and Darunia and Ruto were in different chambers. Saria smashed against the wall and was knocked unconscious.
" Fool, I turned your Forest Power off!" turned around and began to walk away.
The last thing Saria saw before she lost consciousness was the Sage's cape wafting in the darkness.
************************
" Where are we going?" Mido asked.
" Impa said she didn't need my help, and besides, if Darunia and Ruto are missing, I have a good feeling the other Sages would know. I think they're with Saria. Now I know she'll be fine until I can find her."
" You still didn't answer me!" Mido whined.
" Fine! We're going to Gerudo Valley, happy?!" Link yelled.
" Let me guess, a Sage is there?"
" Yup! It's Nabooru!"
" Oh boy!"
************************
" Darunia, hurry!" Ruto scolded.
" I'm trying! I have to brake these bars...somehow," Darunia tried once more and finally, after a lot of pulling, the bars bent outward, creating the perfect passage.
" Oh Saria!" Ruto cried as she lifted the young girls head in her arms.
" Is she..."
" She's alive, she's just unconscious. Oh Saria, we should have been there to protect you. Those Sages will pay for what they did."
" Really? I don't think so!"
Ruto gasped and turned to see the Sage of Wind before her. The Sage held a wooden staff, with a flaming blue orb, in one hand. She held it so that it pointed to the Sage of Water. The Sage of Wind had long, silky white hair and light blue eyes. A blue band came across her forehead, the same blue color that matched the dress she was wearing. From her waist, you could see a long hexagonal shape that stretched from her waist to the tip of her dress. Inside the shape was the picture of trees billowing in the wind.
" It's been a while Ruto, but I had to pay you a visit! We wouldn't want you to escape, now would we?"
************************
" Link, how long will it be before we get there," Mido asked.
" We're here."
Link and Mido dismounted their horses after crossing the bridge that led to the Gerudo's Fortress.
" We'll ask one of the guards where Nabooru is, hopefully she isn't missing," Link and Mido walked to the fortress and were soon stopped by a guard.
" Link, who is your friend?" the young girl asked.
" That's Mido. Have you seen Nabooru?"
" Yes, she to the Spirit Temple and told us to stay here."
" Thank you!" Link began walking in the direction of the temple.
" Wait!" the guard yelled. " You're not planning on going are you?"
" Of coarse we are!" Link responded.
" Then I'm coming with you."
