Legend of Zelda: Next Generation
Chapter 12: Transformations.
"What the heck? How did you get here Stephanie?" Daniel was in shock. "I'd be asking the same of you if I didn't know better." "What do you mean?" asked Leila not taking her eye's off Link. I could almost see her...
"Leila, stop that and pay attention." I demanded and she jumped guiltily. "That's better." I said curtly before turning to Daniel "So, do you remember what you where doing when you where transported?" I asked hoping to unearth a way to reverse the spell, but then I thought of what I'd apparently said after I'd passed out.
"Stephanie? Stephanie are you listening?" Leila's voice sounded like it came from far away. It drew me back to the present and I realized that I'd zoned out. "We forgot to mention that Mathew is here to, he looked weird, just like you." "Yes," confirmed Daniel, "But he's off in the forest somewhere trying to get out. "Link gaped "Then we'd better hurry and find him or your friend will become a stalfo's."
We didn't have time to even turn around when the sound of bushes rustling told us of their arrival. "Hey guy's look who we found." Alex shouted steering a young male hyilian into the clearing. Mathew looked around confused "Didn't we just come this way?" I shook my head. I knew the forest was confusing but this guy was plain clueless.
I turned to lead them out when howling in the distance made me think against it. I heard a noise just beyond the clearing and drew my weapon just as an exhausted Gerudo warrior burst out of the bushes and shouted a warning. "Quick call everyone back, Baldor is finally moving and he's destroying everything in sight."
A wolfos jumped out behind her and before we could help killed her with one swipe of its claws. It rounded on us but we were ready. I thrust my hands out before me and shouted "Elimaris." A Bright ball of light started to form before it exploded and sped of toward the wolfos. It caught the wolfos tail as it jumped to evade it and the beast fell to the ground. Link darted in then and cleanly finished it off before it could recover.
"What was that?" Mathew gasped; Leila was looking a little green. "That was a wolfos." Said Harley a matter of factly from his hiding place behind Debbie. Debbie didn't like having the little pervert behind her so she kicked him out into the open. The kokiri regained his composure and stood sulking. "It's not safe here anymore." Link reminded us all. I nodded in agreement and set off beckoning for the others to follow.
Alex, Link and Debbie caught up quickly, "We have to get out of the forest. Send messengers to all the clans people in the forest and tell them to get out and block the entrances. Alex can you take Daniel and check the forest temple." He nodded and dropped back taking Daniel with him. "Debbie can you get all the Kokiri out of the village and into the temple. Save some to be messengers, take Harley."
She gave the boy a look of intense dislike but they left together all the same. Finally I faced Mathew and Leila. "Um, You guy's will have to come with us to the village because you don't know your way around yet." They accepted this with little complaint. They where both looking a little I'll at ease with the forest.
*******
I heard Leila gasp as we got to the village. It was supposed to be a beautiful place but now it was under siege. "Stay back." Link warned them as I rushed down the embankment past retreating worriors to join in defending what was left. Saw Debbie go past "Change of plan." I shouted, "Get them out, all the way out and don't let them come back into the forest."
I didn't hear her reply as we where attacked by a stalfos. "Bloody hell." I swore as Link rushed past to take care of it. I slapped my hands together and drew them apart. A lightning bolt bridged the gap. "Out of my way." I roared as I hurled it with all my strength. People dived out of the way as quick as they could. It sped toward the horde of stalfos that had just entered the clearing. They didn't get out of the way and ended up a pile of charred bones and twisted metal.
"Whoa!" Daniel had appeared beside me. "You've got to teach me how to do that." I was about to reply when a silence fell over the remains of the village. I joined them looking down the large clearing as the dark prince Baldor emerged from the forest.
******************
Baldor laughed at his prey's expression. She stood out in the crowd of worriors, spell residue hung in the air around her body and her spirit blazed with life. Baldor knew from that moment he hated her. It wasn't difficult for that dark emotion to find a place in his black heart. He walked through the crowd, scattering people here and there. It was still silent until the woman broke the spell. "Every one get out of this forest now." she shouted and everyone awoke from the shock of his arrival. They all ran leaving the girl, that damn toy of the goddesses that they called a hero, two young women, three young men and a child.
They looked almost like the sages.
That knowledge shook Baldor to the core as he advanced on them. He narrowed his mind to the single purpose of retrieving the Triforce pieces. It was a mission his predecessor, Ganondorf, had failed to complete.
He reached out with a spell grasping her and pulling her away from the earth. The others shouted out in shock. The one caught in the spell struggled. "Baldor let her go." one of the young men shouted before he put his hand above his head calling the words to the only spell he knew:
"Candle, candle burning bright, Crimson fires now ignite."
He brought his hand down to point at Baldor as a flare of fire shot out of his palm flying directly at Baldor. A magic screen turned the spell aside. "Was that your best weakling..."? If he had anything else to say it was lost, the man, boy really, had charged toward him in the wake of the spell and attacked with his bare hand's managing to nock Baldor over before he was flung away.
But Baldor felt his concentration on the spell wane and the woman dropped to the ground, landing on all fours before springing to her feet and calling for the others to follow as she escaped. The man disappeared too as Baldor tried to regain his scattered thoughts but by the time he had they where gone it was too late.
The dark prince Baldor had been thwarted 'again' by a bunch of disorganized teenagers.
********************************
Alex- ^_^ Hee Hee I got to use magic. (Dancing)
(Mage-Alia pokes him in the ribs with a pole through the bars of his
cage.)
Mage Alia- Don't get to cocky you've still got a long way to go before I
let you use magic properly.
Debbie- Yeah where going to make you suffer.
(Mage Alia nods in agreement.)
Mage Alia- Let's get back to the story.
*********************************
We ran through the forest. Alex was limping slightly as we arrived at the last possible way out of the ruined forest. "Looks like where going for a swim." Debbie said in a cocky voice. Link was the first to wade into the water. He gave his zora tunic to Daniel so he could go through.
Daniel went with link to guide the way. Link came back and helped the others one by one until only Alex, Leila and I remained in the forest. Time was running out so I dived in and went through without the zora tunic. My lungs where burning with the effort but Link helped and soon I was climbing out on to the bank of the pond. Link was just about to go through again when two head's bobbed to the surface. One was Alex but the other...
I was lost for words. Looking at me was one of my friends as I'd once seen her long ago.
Leila was a Zora!
*********************************
So Baldor's back in Hyrule.
(Debbie- More like stuck in the forest though ^_^) (Mage-Alia- Shut up Debbie.)
Look out for the next chapter...
