And, I am so sorry this has taken so long to post. You see, my brother came home and, since I use the phone line in his room, I could no longer access the Internet, let alone ff.net. But my daddy's going to install a phone line in my room, or whatever it is that you have to do, in my room, since I cleaned it up... Be patient, just be patient, everybody! Thank you so much for being the nice, understanding people that you are!
Review Time!!!
Lilhobbitgurl: Okay, I just want to tell you: If you haven't completed the game, this is will be a MAJOR spoiler for you! I'm not saying you should completely stop reading (PLEASE don't do that!), but you should probably complete the game, kick Ganondorf's sorry little butt and then finish reading it! And, yes: the Water Temple is evil! EVIL, I tell you!! It took me three years to beat that Temple! The rest of it is a lot easier. My favourite Temple is, w/out a doubt, the Spirit Temple. And, as for your idea... I really like the sound of it, but, because of copyright and all that applies there, I can't stray too far from the original plotline of the Manga. I personally really liked it! But I just can't use it. Sorry. :(
Chapter Four
Link Versus Link
Link felt the hot rays of the sun on his face as he trudged through Hyrule Field. The day was blazingly warm and he had been walking for several hours, hoping to get a lead on where to go next. So far, Link was experiencing rotten luck.
Link sighed and placed his hand in front of eyes, shielding them from the sun's intense light. He said wearily, "I still don't see anything, Navi."
Navi replied as she looked down at her partner sadly, "Link, this is no good for you. You need to rest."
But Link ignored her words; he had to keep moving. Only when he found food and water would he be able to rest peacefully. He admitted bitterly to himself all the same, "I was so foolish, not to bring any water... or food, for that matter."
The extreme conditions were really starting to take their toll on Link as he stopped and collapsed to his knees, almost all his energy spent. To his joy, Navi flew down next to him and said, "Look! It's a village! A village, Link!"
The weary Hylian glanced up and when he saw that Navi wasn't lying, his face was lit with happiness and some of his strength returned. He stood up and started jogging towards the town. "There, I can get some food and water! Praise the gods!"
Out of the corner of his eye, though, Link saw a sharp dagger graze his shoulder, missing his head by mere inches. As he turned around, pulled the Master Sword out of its scabbard and equipped his Hylian Shield, Link saw in the sky, his attacker, weapon raised and ready to fight! Because of the bright sun, he couldn't see the face.
"One of Ganondorf's followers?" Link hollered, venting out rage, as he blocked the person's blow with his Shield. But Link lost his footing as the stranger charged: he fell backward on the ground.
Link's attacker had her sword to his throat, ready to kill him. But suddenly, she gasped and drew her blade back: she had seen the Triforce crest embedded in the Master Sword. "That Sword..."
Link looked up as he recognized the voice. "I-Impa?" It was Impa!
She chuckled as she offered Link a hand and helped him stand up. "It's been seven years, Link." She led him to Kakariko Village and there, Link received food, water and rest in Impa's own home.
As Link was eating his fill, he cried, "I feel so much better!"
"Don't eat so fast!" Impa's friend, Kayko, warned. She continued, "So, I heard you killed that nasty dragon at the Fire Temple."
Link stopped, setting his cup gently down on the table. There was a long pause of awkward silence.
Breaking the stillness, Impa said to Link, "What's with this sloppiness of yours? I understand the hard times you're going through well, but passing through that part of Hyrule without food and such... is what a fool with no regard for his own life does!"
"I'm sorry," Link said sheepishly, relaxing back in his chair.
"Impa," Kayko interjected, "You don't have to go that far... The poor boy..."
Impa sighed and walked over to the door. Opening it, she addressed Link again, "First of all, we have to return your strength and spirit. Until then, I can't allow you to leave this village." Without waiting for a response, whether she wanted one or not, she went outside and shut the door.
Link placed his fist on the table and sighed, looking out the window to his right. It was there that he saw a commotion going on.
"I'll be right back, Miss Kayko," Link said, standing up and starting near the door.
"Is something wro—!" But Kayko had seen the riot outside and quickly followed the Hero out into the town square.
As he approached, Link analyzed the situation closer. He saw a large crowd gathered. Then suddenly, from the center of the group, a horse reared back on its legs, neighing loudly. Link could've sworn the horse looked familiar... Epona!
From a corner, a mother was comforting her child about the horse's rash actions, "We've no choice, Aref! If we disobey the Evil King..." She let her sentence trail off.
Then everyone in the town started hearing soft music being played. When the sound reached Epona's ears, she stopped making a fuss and calmed down. Everybody looked to where the music was coming Wrom: MSFDULHPQQWOYIYZUNNYCGPKYLEJGDGVCJVT
The Hero was slowly approaching Epona as he played. The horse looked at Link and remembered a small little boy whom she had helped...
Link ceased his playing and cried out, reading Epona's face out correctly, "Epona, it is you!" He sprinted forward and gently patted her mane, "You remembered my Ocarina, didn't you? Seven years have drifted by since we met."
"Hey, mister!" The little boy Aref cried, running next to Link. "You're the Hero, aren't you? Then please save Epona! Don't let her become one of Ganondorf's horses!"
Link smiled at Aref, then he looked up at Impa and said pleadingly, "Impa, I beg of you, train me in the ways of swordplay. I wish to become much stronger."
Impa sighed. "It will not be easy, but... very well."
From then on, for several days, the sounds of clashing swords reverberated within Kakariko Village. Link had vastly improved. During one particular day, Impa gave Link some training he'll never forget...
Link and the Sheikah had been working all morning and it was now early evening. Impa had said that if Link could get in a solitary hit on her, then Link's training would be complete. Link was eager to prove himself, but his teacher was a master at this. Link kept on charging and she kept on dodging!
"Every time," Link grunted as he tried to hit Impa again, "she just barely dodges my attacks! Time for my Kai Ten Giri technique!"
Link unleashed his Sword's fury but, once again, Impa dodged it, this time, by leaping behind Link. He wasn't expecting that! There, Impa poked him in the small of his back with the back end of her sword, thusly "defeating" Link.
"It doesn't help if you can't connect with your enemy!" she told a frustrated Link.
Link, being exhausted, fell on his back in the soft grass. After a short rest, he stood and walked to the waterspout, taking a drink and then splashing his sweaty face with the cool liquid.
While Link was drying his damp face with a cloth, Aref walked up to Link and said, "You should live here, Link; I'll introduce you to my big sister!"
Link was a little shocked at what the boy had just said, but laughed nonetheless. He said, "Until now, all I've seen is how Hyrule has completely changed. But when I came here, I felt a tranquility I haven't experienced in a truly long time."
"Kakariko is a peaceful town; it was where I was born and raised," Impa put in. "But lately, even around here, monsters have been increasing. There have been instances in which they've taken the shape of a person and attacked. That's why, when you first came, we were so cautious."
Link nodded. "I see."
"With Link around," Aref insisted happily, "we're safe!"
Impa continued to Link, "Ganondorf's power is only getter stronger..."
Link hesitated for a moment, arguing within himself whether or not to ask his next question. Finally decided, he asked the Sheikah, "Impa, where is Princess Zelda now?"
Impa was not at all surprised that Link had asked that inquiry. In fact, she was curious as to why he had waited so long. But she knew she could not tell Link everything, not now. The time would come when he would know all that had happened. She had to be careful in choosing her words. "The Princess—!"
Unfortunately, she was cut off... by Aref's cries of, "Help me!"
Link looked over his shoulder, in the direction of the well, and gasped. Some cloudy-looking substance was protruding out of the well, grabbing Aref by his waist and tossing him roughly around in the air! Link took out his Sword and sliced what was holding the boy and it let him drop... right over the opening in the well! Link caught him before he fell in.
The nebulous material retreated back in the well for a few seconds then came back out. A voice that sounded very similar to Link's spoke while it came out slowly, "I knew the Hero of Time would show up here. I have been waiting for you."
The cloud twisted itself around as it came out. Slowly but surely it was forming itself into something... a person! First came booted feet, then a torso... When the face formed, Link could see what he was up against.
He stuttered for a minute. "It-it became... me?!"
This Dark Link had everything that Link was carrying: a Hylian Shield, the Master Sword... or, at least it looked like the Master Sword...
Impa hollered to Link, "That's one of those monsters I was just telling you about! Be careful, Link!"
"I'd like to see just how strong you've become," the Shadow whispered. "Prepare to be defeated... by yourself!"
Link swallowed hard. He looked into the creature's eyes and felt a shiver move up his spine, making the hairs on the back of his neck stand on end. This Shadow's eyes were small, beady and a blood-red colour. Just staring into them was like staring at death itself. Link blinked and shook his fears away. He calmly reached over his left shoulder and produced the one, true Master Sword; his right hand went to his Hylian Shield.
The sword contest began.
It only took Link about one minute to figure out his opponent's style of swordplay: copying. The Shadow would match Link's movements down to a thread; the Hero couldn't penetrate anything.
"This jerk..." Link said through gritted teeth. "Quit copying me!"
Having been fed up with this guy's mirror moves, Link lunged. The Shadow stepped back and then planted his foot firmly on the Master Sword's blade, pinning Link to the ground, helpless. Link's Dark Side then attacked and, even though he used his Shield to defend, Link suffered injuries. Finally, the Hero jerked free from the Shadow's trap and stood up, wiping his forehead, which was drenched in sweat. The two warriors stood facing each other, daring the alternate to move.
Impa broke the silence, whispering to Link, "Calm down, Link. It only reflects your movements. It will do whatever you do..."
Link blinked, a sudden revelation coming over him. He eyed the creature a few twenty feet in front of him. He had an idea. He crossed his left foot over his right: so did the Shadow, only his movement was delayed about half of a second. Link understood what Impa had said and he now knew how to best this vile enemy.
Link charged forward, as did his Reflection. He lifted his Sword and met Dark Link. Then It leaped in with an almighty blow. Link waited for the opportune moment, then jumped behind Dark Link and struck, a move that was far too unexpected for the Shadow to copy.
Link smiled triumphantly. "Got it!"
But then a horse, made of the same substance as Dark Link, appeared. The Shadow mounted the stallion and charged at a back-turned Link. He only just rolled out of the way as the galloping horse nearly ran over him.
Link turned his head in time to see the horse turn around, preparing to ram him over again. Except this time, it was Epona who was defending Link! "Epona!" Link cried as he stood up. "You want me to ride you? All right, then!"
Link slipped his Shield on his back and mounted Epona's bridle. She took off at a strong gallop, running directly at their opposition.
Link hollered as he raised his Sword at Dark Link like a javelin, "I'll never let you terrorize this village!" He drove the Master Sword through his nemesis as they passed. An ear-splitting shriek filled the and then—it stopped. The Hylian glanced over his shoulder just in time to see the Dark creature vanish.
Link guided Epona over to Impa as she said, "Well done, Link. You bested your Shadow beautifully!"
Link hopped down from Epona's back and said, "Thank you, Impa, but I couldn't have done it without you."
"Nonsense! That thing gave you more training than I would ever be able to! Here..." she said, guiding him over to a bench and standing at his side, "let me give you a gift."
Link felt her grab his ear and then a sharp, but quick, pain went through the lobes. When he reached his hand up to bottom part of his ear, Link gasped. Impa had just pierced his ear with a silver hoop.
"Even though you're not of the Sheikah Tribe," Impa said, walking over to Link's right ear, "this is a right of passage for young Sheikah men." She pierced his right ear the same way as the left. The Sheikah- woman continued, "You've truly become an expert swordsman, Link, the Hero of Time."
When Link stood up, all of Kakariko burst into applause and praise for Link. The Hero grinned sheepishly as he muttered, "This is so embarrassing...!"
Once the crowd had dispersed and Link and Impa were alone, Impa said quietly to Link, "The Princess is safe. I still can't tell you where she is, but the time will come soon when you will meet again. That will happen when you defeat Ganondorf and return peace to Hyrule."
Link sighed. "How can I possibly defeat him? I haven't even awakened all of the Sages yet..."
"Well, Link, that is something I can help you with," Impa said slyly. "For I am the Sage of Shadow."
Link's mouth dropped open.
After a few days of rest and relaxation, Link, along with Epona, was just about ready to leave the village to continue his quest.
"There's a shortcut through the valley in the southeast corner of Hyrule," Kayko advised Link as she handed him a parcel filled to the brim with bread, cheese and apples.
"Thanks, everyone," he said as he secured the package and then mounted Epona.
Impa walked up to Epona and said to Link, "I'd like to accompany you, but I must stay here to seal the well and protect the village. Please protect the Princess in my place."
Link smiled down at her. "No problem," he concurred. "Okay, Epona; on we go!" And he raced out of the village and onto Hyrule Field to continue his journey.
There you go! I think I might upload the next chapter too!
Bye-bye, maybe...!
