THE SWORD OF LIGHT
Chapter 6: The Other Links Reunite
Zoras Domain was empty. No sounds except the flowing of the now melted waterfall. He walked up to King Zora's Throne, and all the zoras were gathered around him. "Link.." King Zora bellowed. "There has been blood coming from our fountain. It is polluting our water, and is causing an unease here. Please find the source. All I can do to help is give you these..." King Zora almost ribbeted in Zora Tounge to another Zora, who ran and got a rope with a claw at the end, and a bright blue sword the exact size of his Master Sword. "The first object is called a Grappling hook. It can be used like your longshot, but can allow you to swing back and forth. It can also be hurled at enemies. The second item is the Zora's sword. It will be very heavy on land, but it is specially made that is is light enough underwater to swing. That is all I can do for you...good luck!" Link turned and ran into the misty of the fountain.
The Gerudo Fortress was gone. In it's place was a tall castle, an almost perfect copy of Ganon's old castle. Sitting at the top on the roof was the portal that would lead to the Dark Realm when activated. The sky was still blue, but three clouds still loomed around the castle's top. Nubaru stood at the top. "Soon.." she muttered. "Soon he will come and I will revive the gerudo king and avenge my sister...." She looked down at the attack force below her. She grinned. "He will have to answer to them , and then me..." she laughed. And walked back inside.
The fog was very heavy. Link could barely see his hands in front of his face. He could hear a hoarse breathing, almost a cry. Link took his Wand and made it act like a torch, which helped him see. He saw Jabu-Jabu. He was on his side, and the blood was coming from him. He had a blade in his side, covered in blood. He took a fairy and tried to heal Jabu-Jabu, but to no avail. Link decided he had to end Jabu's suffering, so he pulled out the blade. Jabu's breathing speed increased, then stopped. Link rest his head on Jabu's stomach for a bit, then looked at the blade. It was exactly the same as the Master Sword down to the scratches, but it was black and translucent. It dissolved in Link's hands.
Link drew his sword and sheild, and looked around. He saw nothing but fog. He walked around, and walked to the edge where the water got to deep to stand. He stared at his reflection and washed his face. He suddenly realized his mistake. Dark Link is formed by my reflection coming to life.... Link thought. He stared at his reflection, unblinking. He tripped backwards over a stump, and when he got up, his reflection was gone. He whirled around, and propped his shield up just as a sword hit it. Dark Link grinned, and reared back. He dissapeared underwater. Link went and looked, but he wasnt there. He suddenly was pushed into the water, and he saw Dark Link at the bottom of the lake holding a blue stone. The Zora Gem! Link switched to his Iron Boots and sank down.
Link drew his Zora Sword as he touched the Lake bottom. Dark Link made the Zora Gem vanish instantly and he drew his "Master Sword" and "Hylian Shield". Link hit it as hard as he could with his sword, and Dark Link realesed his sword. It floated to the surface. Now he was defenseless. Link grinned and drew back his sword, and slashed Dark Link. He dodged, but it cut him across the upper torso. Dark Link cringed, and fell. Link drew his sword for the final blow, but Dark Link made the Zora Gem reappear in his hands. Link paused, and Dark Link stood up. Link used his Long shot and quickly pulled the gem to him. He grinned and tried to stick it into the wand. It would not go. He tried again, and Dark Link used his powers to pull his sword back to him. He put it against Link's face. He uttered deep, menacing words; "You ever heard of a decoy before?"
Link and Dark Link fought furiously, but when Link fell, Dark Link began absorbing water rather than killing Link. After he did that five times, he stood completely still. His hands began to glow, and razor blades appeared in his hands. Link stumbled and quickly took off his Iron Boots. He swam up to the surface and ran to the solid land. Dark Link followed, and threw his razors. Link whipped out his Shield, which managed to stop the blades, but they seemed entirely stuck in the shield. Dark Link screamed, and drew his sword and pounced on Link. His sword went right by Link's head, missing by centimeters, and cutting a few hairs off his head. Link cut off Dark Link's arm, and he stumbled. Link picked up his sword, and impaled Dark Link. He collapsed on the floor. Link wiped his forehead, and walked out of the shrine to report to the Zora's. Before he could leave, he heard a deep, maniacal cackling. "Like I said...ever heard of a decoy before?"
Link looked to the ground. The Dark Link he killed was still dead in a pile. But on top of a rock was a different Dark Link, with slightly more muscle and a scar over his left eye. Although Dark Link was originally a shadow of Link, apparently someone had been "upgrading" him. "What you killed was my double. Think of it as your little meeting with Phantom Ganon. He's my "phantom". I think you know who he really is. You've met my pet before..." Dark Link grinned, and his eyes flashed. The body of the first Dark Link twitched, then reshaped into the shadowy shape of....."Morpha!" Link cried. "Very good!" Dark Link laughed again. "Now if you haven't noticed I'm different from you...superior to you. It is because I have been training with a group called the Gerudo." Link drew his sword. "Now, I wasn't sent here to kill Jabu-Jabu. I was sent here to capture you alive by any means necessary. I just figured good ol' Super-Dork would come to the rescue if Jabu-Jabu was....executed." Link sheathed his sword. "I'm that important, huh?" He drew his Longshot and aimed it at his head. "I'd die before allowing Ganondorf to return to this world. I carry the Triforce of Courage, and if I die the Gerudos will need to find whoever it is passed onto..." Dark Link tensed. "You woudn't..." Link laughed. "If it would prevent Ganon from being ressurected, then I will." Link pulled in the trigger of the Longshot. "When I let go of this, the steel hook was go straight through my skull." Dark Link began sweating. Morpha creeped up behind Link, waiting for his master's orders. Dark Link telepathically talked to Morpha, giving him all his unheard orders. "Grab him...NOW!" Morpha lunged at Link, but before he touched Link, Link realesed the trigger of the Longshot.
