Important note: About the whole deku seed/Kokiri thing, that was kinda
intentional. You'll see.
When the unexpected happens, strategy is no longer a factor.
Blurred images of various types of vegetation, grey bricks from the walls of the castle and the field of Hyrule rushed past Link's eyes as he ran towards the evil ahead. The clanging of Commerford's iron boots thudding against the dirt filled Link's ears. The blue bolts were getting stronger and more fierce and in Link's mind, more evil. Commerford ran on, not sure if his fighting abilities were nearly as good as Link's. Of course not, he thought. Look at him he is freakin magic. He is from the forest, although the deku seed would suggest otherwise.
The pair stopped at a dome of blue light. The blue bolts were shooting from the top of it, making this the source of all the evil. "What is it, sir?" Having no time to dismiss the title, Link replied in a hesitant and uncertain tone "I'm not sure, but whatever it is, it's got something or someone moving inside it." Commerford squinted his small brown eyes. A grey outline of a figure seemed to be waving it's arms around, as if to conduct the magic.
Taking an arrow from his quiver, Link picked up his wooden bow. It's smooth wooden finish felt comfortable in Link's sweaty palms and the arrow was as sharp as ever. The metal tip on the arrow showed reflections of the blue bolts shining ahead. Link loaded the arrow, put his right foot back and took aim. His forehead was sweaty; he could not concentrate, for his target was unknown. He stood there in his stance, one eye open, and ready to let go. He stopped. He waited. Nothing.
"What are you waiting for, sir?" Commerford said in his deep voice. Link stood there and did not reply, his open eye was fixed on the light blue dome. Finally Link let go of the bow. The arrow flew through the air swiftly and quickly, and it hit the upper half of the dome. The arrow penetrated the dome, and the blue light around it flickered. "Now Commerford!" Commerford was quickly reacted and threw his iron sword at the flickering dome. Spinning around vertically, the sword hit the dome by the blade. A sharp crackle, a few moments of flickering light, and the light was gone. Not to let his guard down, Commerford stumbled forward and picked up his sword and then stood back with Link, who had his shield covering his body neck down.
The mist from the dome started to clear. A tall, slim human shape started to walk through it. "Show yourself!" Link commanded with full confidence. A female voice laughed, as if to mock the two. A woman, six foot tall was standing in front of the two. She had blue skin and a darker shade of blue for her hair. Her eyes where a soft yellow, she was wearing nothing but a tattered dress that barely hung off her shoulders. Glittering shapes seemed to surround her. "Who are you?" Link asked whilst gripping his master sword with both hands. The woman laughed again. "Don't you recognise me? Or maybe you might be able to tell from a distance." Link relaxed his sword a little, trying to work out the identity of this mystery woman. "Will this refresh your memory? Oh help me Link? I am just too weak for Gannondorf. You have to be the hero because I am just a weak fairy." She said, rolling her eyes and waving her arms in the air, mocking Link. "Navi?" Link asked, praying to himself that he guessed wrong. Judging from her smile, he didn't. "Look I don't care who you are. But what you are doing is evil! I must stop you!" He said, whilst charging at Navi with his sword wielded above his head. "NO!" Link shouted, palm outstretched. Navi grinned and stood her ground, not intimidated. Commerford swung his sword down only to be met by Navi's hand, which stopped the blade in its path. "Back in line buddy." She said calmly, pushing Commerford back to his original position.
"I want some answers." Link said bitterly between his teeth. "You are in no position to order me around. But I like seeing you squirm." "Why?" Link asked, eyes opening as he said it, as if he was pleading. "I sold my soul to the devil and she gave me all this. I just came back to this stupid time to get hold my end of the deal." Commerford blinked once again and scratched his helmet. "This isn't you Navi. You are a good sole. Something is driving you. Something evil." "No one controls me!" she shrieked in response, and to carry out her harsh tone she stretched her arm out and let some blue bolts fly in Link's direction. Link ducted them easily and turned around and say that the bush behind him was now totally gone save for a couple of roots.
Suddenly, Navi lifted her blue arm and caught something in mid-air. A long needle, which was thrown at her, shined in the pale light, which was constantly engulfing Hyrule. "Someone else wants to play?" Navi asked, looking around. The clattering of metal was the only warning of the next attack. A long chain came out of the grey sky and wrapped around Navi's neck. A yank later and Navi was hanging in the air, trying to pry the chain away from her neck. Commerford and Link both looked upwards and saw a slim blue figure with several marking on her skin-tight suit hanging in the air. "Ze- I mean Sheik!" Link cried. Commerford raised his sword, not sure if this new figure was friend or foe. Link motioned with his arm that she was friend and Commerford relaxed a little.
"Let go of me!" Navi shrieked. She let go of the chain chocking her neck and waved her arms about. "Nuh uh." Sheik said, waving her index finger left and right. "You ain't doing any magic for now" she finished. Navi looked around and saw a green light around them, signalling that a spell that prevents all magic being cast with the exception of the person who made cast the spell in the first place. "Aww stuck are we?" Sheik mocked. Navi relaxed a little and then smiled. "Yes well if no one can perform magic here, then that wont stop us will it?" Sheik relaxed her grip in astonishment. "Bye bye!" Navi said waving. Sheik was still hovering in the air holding onto her chain. But this time the chain was empty, as Navi seemed to of disappeared. "Come back here which." Commerford yelled looking around. Link sat on the grass with his face buried in his hands. Sheik jumped down and sat next to him. She patted him on the back. Looking to the sky, Link told himself that that was not the Navi he knew.
Next Chapter: Who is this female devil that Navi referred to? What did she mean by 'this time'? What will Link do to stop his companion? What will become of Commerford?"
