Attention: I hope that you're enjoying this so far. I don't know if anyone else gets this, but I get writer's block quite easily, so I either stop writing for a while, or I work on something else. In this case, I just stopped, and kind of stared another story. I'll put it up when I finish it. Also, I've been reading stories, and most people separate their lines a lot more than I do, does that make it easier to read? If so, I'll start doing it to make it more convenient for my readers. Read, review, and just plain help me.
Chapter 4: Escape
Link regained consciousness. He slowly opened his eyes and tried to move. About ten feet in front of him, he saw the sword that Arthur had used embedded in it's pedestal. He tried to get up but found that his wrists were bound by chains to the wall. He struggled against them but to no avail as they weren't going to budge. Suddenly, Arthur entered the room and walked toward the sword. He removed it from the pedestal and began to address the Hero of Time.
"You must feel powerless. I honestly don't know how you defeated my father because you are so weak." Arthur mocked him.
Link looked up but said nothing.
"You're just going to sit here and let me make fun of you? Hero of Time..... more like Weakling of Time. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!" Arthur laughed evilly then he left the chamber.
Link struggled with the chains some more, desperately wanting to escape. He couldn't accept that he wasn't able to defeat Arthur. He also couldn't believe the power of that sword. It destroyed two of his best weapons and was able to stand up to his strongest. He was contemplating how he would escape and defeat him when the skylight above burst and a blonde-haired woman landed in front of him.
"Link, are you okay?" The woman asked. Link started to reply, when the doors of the room burst open and a large number of Gerudo entered. They must've heard the woman's dramatic entrance. The woman was un-mistakenly Hylian with short blonde and a sword sheathed on her back. Link had not gotten a clear view of her face, but felt as if he had seen her before.
The woman raised her arm and a staff appeared in her hands. She began to twirl it around like a child's toy, but, at the same time, in a very dangerous manner. The Gerudo rushed her, and she took out about eight of them by spinning the staff and tripping them. The remaining six Gerudo drew their swords and charged forward, swords swinging. She used the length of her staff to effectively guard each consecutive attack from them, and soon followed up with many of her own attacks. She downed one with a sharp stick to the gut, followed by a whirl of the staff and an excruciating blow to the head. Then she tripped one with the staff and hit the back of their neck while they were recovering. She had soon taken out all of the Gerudo. Not only that, but she had made it look easy.
She rushed over to Link, who finally looked up to see her face. Link quickly realized that, despite the new hairstyle, clothes, and all the years between them, that it was the one and only Princess of Hyrule.
"ZELDA!?" Link screamed with surprise and excitement simultaneously.
"Glad to see me?" Zelda replied with a previously unknown sarcastic tone. Zelda pulled the sword from the sheath, and cut the chains that bound Link. Link looked at the sword.
"THE MASTER SWORD!?" Link exclaimed as she handed it to him.
"I'll explain later, right now we have to get out of here." Zelda said hastily.
Link followed Zelda as she lead him out of the Gerudo Fortress. As they were running through the empty corridors of the fortress, Link thought about how much Zelda had changed. He could tell that she was no longer the prissy weak princess that she once was, but a powerful fighter. She had saved him for goodness sake! Link wondered how he had missed this, how he could've not known about it.
Link also wondered why he held the Master Sword. Had something happened? What required the opening of the Temple of Time to obtain the Master Sword? Link pondered what the possible situation could be when Arthur appeared before them, interrupting his thoughts.
"Going somewhere?" Arthur said menacingly as his sword appeared in his hand.
"Actually, we were planning on leaving." Zelda replied with spite. Link drew the Master Sword.
"Aaahhh.... The sacred blade of evil's bane. This should be interesting." Arthur said, and then suddenly ran toward Link with weapon ready.
Link raised the Master Sword and blocked the attack. Link starred at him intently, he was hellbent on finding his weakness. Link charged him with all his might and swung his blade as fast and as hard as he could, only to be blocked and knocked back with little effort by Arthur.
"Link! You can't fight him now! He's too powerful!" Zelda screamed. Link knew she was right; he knew he didn't have a chance no matter how good he was. The balance of power belonged to Arthur, and Link could do nothing at the moment.
"So what are you going to do, run? How pathetic....."Arthur mocked.
"Actually, yes, that's exactly what we're going to do, Link, come close to me." Zelda said and motioned for Link to come to her. Suddenly, with a wave of her hand, both her and Link disappeared.
Well, I spaced my stuff out more, let me know if it helps. Later...
