The Secret of the Sages
Disclaimer: The same as always
Zelda is in her library. The library itself looks like a tornado decided to touch down there. She hasn't even bothered to put the books back on the shelves. All of the writings from long ago are stored here. The princess slowly goes through each one, hoping to find some kind of clue. She finishes the book she has, and carelessly tosses it behind her.
"OW!" Zelda turns quickly. Standing there is Nabooru, rubbing her head.
"Sorry," Zelda says. Impa and Sheik come in the door right behind Nabooru. Impa takes one look at the place and shakes her head.
"Zelda, this place is a mess.." she says. Zelda just shrugs and goes for another book.
"What are you looking for anyway?" Nabooru asks. Zelda doesn't even turn to her.
"Anything that could tell us the locations of the former temples." She replies. Impa takes the book they found and puts it in front of Zelda.
"You can read the ancient languages. Can you read this?" she asks. Zelda flips through the book. She nods.
"I can read parts of it...but not much." She says. "I am not sure what language it is in. But it hasn't been used in Hyrule for well over 2 millennia." Sheik is in shock. Nabooru sits down in a chair. Impa looks at Zelda for a long moment.
"Zelda...what about Rauru? He's a few millennia old." Zelda thinks a moment. Then she nods.
"Yes, that may work. But we would need to enter from the Temple of Time." They all head off to the Temple.
**Darunia's turn**
"Wow...I never knew about this room...." Darunia is standing in a gray room in the Fire Temple. In the center is some kind of stone box. The hieroglyphs that led Darunia here continue around the room. He takes a moment to read them. Then he steps back a bit.
"So that's why....." he whispers. A loud, grinding sound echoes in the room. Darunia turns to see the top of the stone box opening. He pulls out a Megaton Hammer and stands ready to fight. The lid crashes to the floor, making the room shake. Darunia holds his position. Slowly, a figure starts to rise up.....
**Back with the Zoras :) **
After a while of searching, they come on a huge building. It seems to be made of some kind of blue crystal. A river runs right under it. The building itself seems to flow. Ruto and Reiyno just stand there a moment staring.
"I have got to learn how to do that." Reiyno finally says. Ruto finally closes her mouth. They both go up to the entrance. Reiyno tries to open it, but it doesn't even budge. Ruto gives him a hand, but it still won't move. They start searching for another way in.
**Rauru's turn again**
"Let's see here...." Tronolf says. "I can't have you people running around. So what's the best way to do something about it?" He paces a bit. Then he looks up. "That's right, this group has a Gerudo in it...I can use her." Rauru bits his lip. He doesn't want to blurt out anything to help this monster. Tronolf goes up to him. "How about this....if you tell me the symbol of the Gerudo, I'll let you live." Rauru finally has had enough. He spits in Trololf's face. Without even blinking, The evil Gerudo wipes it off. Then he snaps his fingers.
"What?" Rauru ends up saying. Two Lizafos appear.
"Now, I will ask you again. What is the symbol of the Gerudo Sage? Or do my pets here need to extract it....." Both of the Lizafos appear hungry. But Rauru keeps his mouth shut.
"My king." Rauru looks, and a guard of a species he has never seen is there. It looks kind of like a Zora, but not.
"I am in the middle of something very delicate here. This had better be good!" The guard cringes.
"The Kokiri Sage and their Hero of Time have awakened the Sage of Life...." The guard is fearing for his life. Rauru silently cheers. Trololf grinds his teeth.
"PUT UP BARRIERS AROUND THE OTHER TEMPLES. I DON'T WANT ANY MORE MISTAKES!!!" The guard gulps, salutes, then leaves as fast as he can. Then Trololf turns his evil glare to Rauru. Rauru for his part, doesn't return it. The bars holding him in suddenly disappear. The Lizafos start to close in.
"I'll do this with or without you." He says. "This world will be mine forever." Then he snaps his fingers, and the Lizafos attack!
**Link, Saria, and now Lylan**
"So why did you ask the Deku Tree to keep us away from here?" Saria asks Lylan. They are walking through the Lost Woods heading back to the Kokiri Village.
"It was just easier that way. Besides, when I was a sage, the Deku Tree didn't have all of its power yet. There were many more monsters out here than there are now. I didn't want any of you kids getting hurt out here...or worse." Link is a bit further ahead, thinking he didn't want to listen to the 'girl talk'. ^_^ As they come around a fallen log, Link finds Tael standing there like he just ran a marathon. Saria and Lylan come up as well.
"Tael, what is happening?!" Link asks. Tael looks up at him.
"The...village......some weird....people.....on fire...they will destroy it.....they told me to get you....." Tael is so out of breath. Saria warps them all to the Kokiri Village. When they arrive, the whole place is ablaze. The Kokiri are all trying to escape somehow. Saria starts shouting at the top of her lungs for them all to go to the Forest Temple. Tatl comes up looking really hurt.
"Tatl, what is happening?" Link asks.
"The Deku Sprout is in danger....I couldn't help it...I'm so sorry.." Link takes off to the Deku meadow. When he gets there, he finds a couple of Stalfos lighting a fire near the Deku Sprout. Link quickly takes out his sword and destroys them. Then he uses Nayru's Love to shield the Deku Sprout from the blaze. He raises his sword into the air, with the tip of the blade pointing at the sun.
"Please, Farore......help us......" A moment later, it starts pouring. Within a few minutes, the fires are out. When the shield wears off, Link turns to the Deku Sprout.
"Are you all right?" he asks.
"Yes Link. Thank you." The sprout looks worried. "Someone is mad."
"Gee, ya think?" Lylan and Saria come up.
"Link, is everything all right?" Saria asks. Link nods.
"Are the Kokiri all right?"
"A few injuries, but nothing serious." She responds. The Deku Tree Sprout looks at Lylan.
"So, Sage of Life, you are back." It says.
"I'm not sure it is the same as what you are thinking, but I will help them however possible." Lylan seems to think a moment. Then she turns to Link.
"Hey Link, did the monsters you battled here have any kind of symbol on them?" she asks. Saria comes up with some kind of amulet.
"You mean like this?" she asks. Lylan takes it a moment. Then she sighs.
"It is Trololf." She says. Link sets his jaw.
"Let's hurry to Hyrule Castle." He says. They start off.
