I am SO sorry for the lack of updates. Camp, swim team, and a
vacation to the beach have drained my writing time this month. Anyway.
ON WITH THE CHAPTER! Disclaimer: I do NOT own the legend of Zelda. I don't own the song, "Faint", which I am listening to now, I don't own a non-screwed up version of the original Zelda game, I don't own the monster called a bloodstock from last chapter, I don't even own the computer I'm typing on! ^______^
CHAPTER 4 - A Secret Revealed
I stepped cautiously into the dark room, expecting another attack. A statue of the creator, Farore stood over two giant torches and an altar that had on it what looked like someone's face. I couldn't really see it in the dark of the room. A man in a gerudian robe was in front of this altar, a man I hoped I would never see again.
Gannondorf.
"So you came, just as I thought you would."
I growled at him, " What are you doing here? How did you get out of the barrier?"
Gannondorf turned to face me.
Whoa! Gannondork put on a few pounds in the Dark Realm!
"I've been out of that damn seal for months!" Gannondorf growled. "You mean nobody's sensed the dark energy here?" He chuckled. "Not even Zelda? GOOD! I wasn't trying to be noticed by anyone."
I gritted my teeth. "While you do what? You didn't answer my other
question!"
"Why should I tell you?"
"Cause I've got light arrows already out and ready to fire," I said as I nocked one.
"Fine," Gannondorf said. " I'm performing a type of soul ritual, that's all I'm saying."
"For what?"
"You are clueless, aren't you?" Gannondorf stepped aside from the altar revealing the fierce deity mask!
"Link, two years ago when you put on the mask and turned into the warrior, did you feel like you had almost no control over what you were doing? Have you lately been having dreams about the dark version of you in the water temple? Have you ever wondered about the legend of Majora's Mask, or what happened to your father after your mom dropped you off at the forest?"
"What do my parents have to do with anything?"
"Everything. The legend that moronic mask salesman told you is a load of crap. What really happened, was after the war was over, I followed Tyron, your father, who was limping back towards the castle town hoping to get into the crowded hospital when he met the sorceress and mask collector known as Majora."
What was that!?
"She made a bet with him, and if he won the bet he would be healed and nourished, but if he lost, he would have his soul trapped within himself and then sealed inside a mask."
Something's coming...
"He lost the bet and as Majora cast the spell, he used some magic of his own to deflect the curse. His spell backfired though, and both he and Majora were sealed within masks with no trace of their former selves, no souls to keep them from doing wrong. And so I was easily able to take over the dark entities they had become, and then change their form to my liking."
"So your saying that I still have an alive family member, but has had his soul sealed inside of a mask?" Could this get any more ironic?
"Yes, that's true, but he's not in the mask anymore."
It's here.
There was a familiar 'ching' sound as a sword was put up to my neck.
"I'm so glad I could stall you with info while the ritual finished itself. TYRON!" Dark Link turned his head to listen. "Kill him."
Dark Link's swipe was met with mine, sending sparks flying throughout the room as the blades scraped against each other. This clash was followed by another clash, and more and more blows were exchanged between us. I parried a slash and stabbed, but it was blocked by Dark Link's shield. I took out my arrows and fired a light arrow into Dark Link's chest, stunning it. Slashing wildly at Dark Link, I thought I had the upper hand, but it simply slammed its shield into my face. I took a breath as blood trickled down my face and struck again. The swordplay went on and on, and I was starting to get tired.
In a last desperate attempt to beat Dark Link, I threw a crystal containing Din's fire onto the ground, shattering it and spreading flame around me, scorching Dark Link. Still burning, Dark Link stepped back into nothingness.
"Boy," Gannondorf said, "You have witnessed your father at minimal power. Don't expect it to be this easy again."
GANNONDUFUS YOU'RE GOING DOWN!
Gannondorf conjured a ball of light as I charged at him, and slammed it on the ground causing a bright flash and knocking me down. And in a split second, all traces of Gannondorf disappeared from the tower.
Coward...
I stepped out of the room and Zelda ran over to me.
"Zelda," I said blankly, "can you show me where the library is?" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ So, was that a good chapter? The plot has been revealed, and I have a good idea where I'm going with the story from here, but I'd be glad to listen to a few suggestions that are better than my plan. Did the whole "LINK, I AM YOUR FATHER" thing seem kinda cheesy? Oh well, it's the plot. Oh, and the Bloodstock from last chapter is Magic: the Gathering card. Am I the only Magic player on the site?
MORE REVIEWS ARE NEEDED! I AM REALLY CONSIDERING STOPPING THE WRITING OF THIS FIC! INSPIRATION TANKS ARE LOW, AND THEY NEED TO BE FILLED. PLEASE REVIEW! WILL ONLY SUBMIT NEXT CHAPTER AFTER 3 REVIEWS. Goodbye!
