The Legend Of Zelda: The Battle Of The Ages

Chapter 8: Waiting In Darkness.

Authors-note-thingy: I think I am going to fast, and not explaining things enough. So, as a result of that, I will try harder to "paint pictures" in the readers mind. (Thank you Alex) Anyway, I hope you like this chapter. Oh and this chapter will explain why I named it :the Legend OF Zelda: The Battle of the Ages. ( So here is the story.

"This place.I HAVE TO GET OUT!!! I think Ganondorf's plan is stupid. Don't you see it? If he keeps going the way he is, then history will repeat itself again! Why doesn't anyone take me serious? And I will never forgive him." -P.G.

Nabooru attacked, Impa revealed a secret hide-out to link and the sages. And someone is there with them. These were the thoughts of Rauru, inside Impa's Hide-out.

"I call upon the light Amulet, hidden in the Temple of Time!" Rauru yelled.

But the thing that was in there with them heard him.

"NOOOOO!!" The evil thing there.

"And I call upon the light staff, show the creature in here!" Rauru said.

A bright light surrounded Rauru, then in his hands lay the Light Amulet, then it turned itself into the Light Staff.

"Who is this powerful one? How dare you call upon the light!" said the evil thing.

"Light, show me, who is here?" Rauru asked the light staff.

The evil thing that was there, was trying to look for Rauru, but by the time he got to him, Rauru hit him with a light orb from the Light Staff.

"Who are you, and why did you come here?!" Rauru demanded. Now every one that was there, was watching Rauru and the evil thing in Link's room. "If you don't tell me, I swear the end of you WILL be near!" "Never, and YOU shall pay!" said the evil, and showed itself to Link and the Sages. It was another dark spirit. It was wearing a dark-velvety- cloak. A hood covered its head from any possibility of anyone seeing him. The evil spirit was floating and out stretched its gas-like arms to where it was touching all the walls. "I COVER THY WITH THE DARK SPIRITS, THE DARK POWER, AND THE AWESOME POWER OF ME!!" And with that all the rooms were covered with darkness, and the evil spirit vanished. But saying these words before he left: "I LET THY SEE WHAT BANISHMENT I HAD TO SUFFER."

"Okay, well, what the heck was that?!" asked Link.

"Phantom Gannon." Said little Saria.

"How do you know?" Nabooru asked, she was getting out her blade, and looked around to see if anyone was still there. "I mean, are you saying that the fight that I had with Ganondorf just a while ago, was really this phantom gannon guy?"

"No, I do believe that it was Ganondorf." Impa said, getting her Shadow Bow ready for a battle.

"Well, I've fought Phantom Gannon. Though he looked different than before. Hmm.." Saria said getting out her Forest Amulet.

"What do you mean?" Asked Mikau, as he was forming the great Sword of Destiny in his silvery-blue skin. "Like he shape-shifted?"

"Maybe," Said link. "Is that right Saria?"

"I don't know, but I'm going to have to find out." She said while powering- up her amulet. "I know what his reaction is to this." She pointed to her Amulet. "He is weak against the life, and power of the forest, and you guys didn't noticed, when he was telling us about the banishment, I walked out closer to him and he disappeared. You guys had to have noticed that!" she looked at everyone in a mean way.

Just as she finished her sentence, a spirit of one of the past sheikah's grabbed one of her legs, and started to pull her down the corridor.

"SARIA!!" Link yelled, while running towards her, along with the rest of them.

"You must get out.get out of here, the spirits are talking, they WILL CONSUME ALL WHO IS HERE!! All you need is light.GET OUT!!" Said the spirit of the sheikah, the spirit was helping her, although I don't think pulling the poor girl would help.

"huh? OKAY!" yelled saria. And when she said that Rauru powered up his Light Staff, and Impa was on her way to the entrance of the great Triforce- hide-out.

"WISDOM!" Yelled Impa, and the cycle of the way out started. (you know the tree lowering and the steps, etc..)

Rauru was pointing the Light Staff directly at the sheikah spirit, and the spirit let go of Saria.

"GET OUT!! THIS PLACE.OUT.GET OUT!!!" The spirit said.

Saria grabbed her Forest Amulet and pointed towards Rauru and the Light Staff lit up even more than it had been. The light was so bright, no one could see anything and slowly the dark spirits were leaving, but there was one in particular that wouldn't leave. It was the pas t King of Hyrule.

"Zelda, let me stay with you!" Cried the spirit of the King. "Granddaughter, let me stay!!" and the spirit grabbed Zelda.

"No! You aren't real.GO!!" Zelda yelled. And Impa was holding her Shadow Amulet to Rauru's Light Staff. So was Mikau and Darunia. The power from each Amulet was combining it with the Light Staff's power, and thus, powered up the Light Staff even more.

"NOOOOO!" And that was the last of the spirit of the past King of Hyrule.

A slight sigh came out of Zelda; then Nabooru held up her Spirit Amulet towards Rauru and his Light Amulet popped out of the Light Staff and blew a huge wind current, along with light. And all the Dark Spirits were gone.

But before they could think of that, the tree and the steps stopped what they were doing and undid what they had done. There was no way out, for Impa had tried the password "WISDOM" many times, but couldn't get out. And even though Rauru had lit up all of the underground "safe-hole", it was still dark.

"Why doesn't it work?!' Darunia blurted out. He was trying to get his Fire Spear to cut through the roof of the triangular rooms. The spear wouldn't form, and that was getting Darunia worried. "Saria, does yours work?"

"Uh." she responded, while grasping her Forest Amulet from the ground. "Let me check." Then she pointed her amulet towards the entrance of the hidden safe-hole. The amulet glowed for a moment, then stopped. Vines began to come out of the ground, and started to pull on the withered tree roots. The roots hung so dead, and yet Saria still felt the vibrations of the tree's life. "A little." She frowned.

"It must be because you guys pored power from your amulets to Rauru's." Mikau explained. "My sword is still in it's form, but the Amulet's glow, is dieing down."

"Do you guys see that?!" Link said pointing to a shadow, near the left corner of the room they were all in.

The shadow moved, and spoke to him.

"Young one. You were only a hero one time. and that time was up." The shadow said. Everyone was looking at it, then it covered the whole room. "You will see." And the voiced faded.

"What was that?" Link said to himself, not even aware that everyone that was there, saw what he just seen. "Guys?"

As soon as he finished his sentence, they all heard people scream. Then Link heard him self.

"Ahhhhhh!!" a voice said. "GET OUT OF THE WAY!!"

"What's going on?" asked another voice.

"HELP SOME ONE.!!" Another voiced yelled.

"AHHHHHH!" another voice said.

What they were hearing was the past. When Link and Sheik met up in Kakariko Village in the past, or to them was the future.

"Impossible.." Zelda murmured.

"What?" Link said, as he began to hear faint voices of Gorons. "Why are you calling out to me?!"

"He said he was going to feed them to him, all of those who oppose him." Said a young Goron.

"Link?" Link asked, as he remembered the past when he met a young Goron named after him. "Your not supposed to be here yet? Wait where are we?!"

"What is the hell is going on?!" Darunia yelled. "Excuse my language."

"Ganondorf is not letting us go, and is bringing all of the pain back!" Saria yelled. "Its like he's torturing us, or something!!"

Then all of them heard something.

"WHY ARE YOU SCARED NOBLE ONES?!" Said a dark and gloomy voice. "FEAR ME NOT, FOR I AM YOUR FRIEND."

"Alright, who are you?" Rauru asked, sitting down on the cold, hard, dirt ground. "Why are you here?"

"To warn thou." Said the gloomy voice. "My name is-" but before he could finish, Link cut him off.

"To warn us about what?!" Link demanded. "Are you helping-" but the gloomy voice cut him off.

"What I was going to say before I was rudely interrupted," the dark voice said calmly. "My name is Majhobi, I've known you for sometime now." He looked at all of them. "And the warning is that Ganondorf is going to repeat history if he is not stopped. He's reviving all of those "beaten" "bosses. But one of them is resisting."

"The prophecy was true." Darunia said walking towards Saria, he then took her Amulet and pressed them together.

"What are you doing?!" Said demanded pointing her index finger at him. She was powering up and was going to use one of her attacks. "Why did you take my Amulet?"

Everyone looked at them, but before Darunia explained, Majhobi interrupted them.

"Listen, the power of the Amulets will set you free, but if don't understand each other, they will never work. Fire, Forest, Shadow, Spirit, Light and Triforce, consider that as instructions. Good-bye." And Majhobi left, leaving the Sages, and destined one to think about what he just said.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" Saria yelled looking at Darunia pressing on the two Amulets together.

"Fire and Forest, let them be combined!!" Darunia yelled looking up.

After he said that the two amulets formed into Orbs, and flew up into the ceiling; then pushed each other into each other. The orbs formed a dark red color then dropped back down back into Darunia's hands.

"You see, when I and Mikau formed our essences together, we formed the Sword of Destiny, and Mikau got to keep it. So my power wasn't the power that the Sword needed. I needed to combine with another Power and I knew it had to be forest." Darunia explained.

The orb that was the combination of the Fire Amulet, and the Forest Amulet separated and became two things. The Spear of the Flame Forest, and Saria's necklace, or the Forest Amulet, turned into the Bow of Power. Each "tool" had a part in it, and changed the power within it. Making it the two new things. All the sages were amazed by that, and each Amulet glowed with power, and flew to their "missing" power.

Sages stuck, a chance of being let out, and the power of the Amulets changed. What will happen if all the Amulets took their "Destined Power"? You'll find out in the next Chapter. Chapter 9:

Chapter 9: The Hidden Gifts of Power.

Another Author's-note-thingy: This chapter was extremely short, and as I put in the first "Author's-Note-Thing" this chapter was supposed to explain the title of this story. If you find yourself wondering "What the hell is this guy talking about" don't worry, you'll get it sooner or later. But hopefully sooner :D see you later : )
