Puppet Ganon

Link gaped, eyes wide, as he watched Ganondorf turn into a giant, spooky marionette. The terrible puppet sprouted strings and attached itself to the ceiling. There were strings supporting its arms, head, ect. The creature had a long tail with a bright blue orb at the end.

It was time to face the infamous Puppet Ganon...

Link pondered over what weapon he should use to destroy such a villain. There was the Master Sword, of course, that was a given. However, Puppet Ganon was too high up on the ceiling's rafters to hit with a sword... Link knew he needed to get the thing down to the floor, but how?

His Boomerang! Of course!

"Wow...I gots so totally smarts all of a sudden..." Link said as he pulled his Boomerang out of his crack.

Our hero ran through the water, eyeing the strings of the marionette. The puppet was dancing about as it hung from the rafters, which was really freaky looking, in Link's opinion.

After targetting a group of strings, Link threw the Boomerang, successfully cutting them.

"YES! I AM SOOOOO SMOOTH!" Link cheered.

But suddenly, Puppet Ganon extended one arm and jabbed Link so hard he flew up against the wall.

"UGH!" our hero grunted as he slid to the floor.

Link remembered his gun, and reached into his ass to retrieve it, but found nothing...

"Oh, shit! I must've dropped it!" he realized.

Meanwhile...

One of the Phantom Ganons saw a gun laying on the floor.

"Hey, cool! A gun!" he said, picking it up and shooting himself.

Back at the fight...

Link knew he had to fight without his trusty gun. The boy got to his feet and threw the Boomerang at a few more strings. More success! The puppet's head hung limp without strings to support it.

Some time later, Link felt as though he had been firing that damn Boomerang for hours, while in reality, it was only a few minutes. Link threw his weapon again, and the last of the strings holding up the tail were cut, causing the puppet's tail to fall to the ground. Once again, the boy noticed the blue orb at the end of the tail. Something in his brain told him to do some damage to it, so that's what he decided to do. However, the marionette started spinning, so his aim would have to be just right...

Link needed a weapon that could kill all evil. But he just had the Triforce of Courage, the Master Sword, and the Light Arrows; those weren't THAT great. Then he remembered the Light Arrows. That could kill all evil, even though just a moment ago, he thought they couldn't! He took out his bow and the arrows, and shot at the orb with a Light Arrow. This seemed to do some serious damage to the puppet once the orb was hit successfully, for an electric shock seemed to go through its body.

After the quick suffering the puppet endured, it reattached itself to the rafters. Link would have to cut down the strings and hit the orb all over again...

Our hero dashed through the water at a quick pace, trying to get in a good position so that he could hit Puppet Ganon's strings with the Boomerang once more.

Link noted that Puppet Ganon seemed to be pissed about the injury done to its person, and began to attack more frequently. The marionette would extend its arm to wack Link, sometimes succeeding.

After a few more Boomerang attacks, the tail fell again, and once more, Puppet Ganon started spinning. Link aimed carefully and hit the blue orb with a Light Arrow.

An electric shock ran through the puppet's body again. After it recovered, the marionette attached itself to the rafters; AGAIN.

Puppet Ganon lightly hit Link with one of its arms (More damage would have been done, had Link not moved backward quite so far.). Link winced, but continued cutting the strings.

At last, for the third time, the tail fell to the floor and Puppet Ganon spun. Link fired a Light Arrow at the blue orb, and Puppet Ganon died.

Link cheered as he panted.

"I...rock...SO HARD!"

But to Link's surprise, the puppet started to float in the air... It began to transform... Before our hero knew it, he was in the presence of a puppet spider! That's right. Puppet Ganon had turned into a spider.

The spider went high up near the rafters and ceiling. Link couldn't hit it with the Boomerang, his sword, OR his arrows! All hope seemed lost...

"Oh, shit..." he muttered.

The spider started spinning. Link looked down at the water -- he could see the creature's reflection. Although the entire puppet had changed form, Link could still see the blue orb from his view of the water image.

Puppet Ganon kept spinning, leaving Link wondering as to what it was going to do. Well, he found out pretty damn quickly -- the spider started to fall in attempt to crush the young boy.

"AAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!" Link screamed as he tried to run.

Puppet Ganon landed. Link was safe; he stood between two of the legs and next to the blue orb, which he shot with a light arrow. Like before, this injured the foe, and then it rose to the ceiling and rafters once more and started to spin yet again.

Feeling incredibly intelligent, Link remembered this tactic. He waited until Puppet Ganon fell to the floor again, and then he shot the blue orb with a Light Arrow as he did before.

Puppet Ganon retreated to the ceiling and started to spin once more. Before too long, the spider came down to the floor for the third and final time. Link hit the orb with a Light Arrow, and Puppet Ganon appeared to die...

But, alas, things aren't always what they seem...

Puppet Ganon took on its final form -- the snake form, which is the most difficult to defeat.

Link stared warily at the snake for a moment. He could see the blue orb on the tip of the creature's tail.

This is gonna be soooo easy! he thought. I mean, it's on the ground, I can see the orb, and nothing's happening.

Boy, was our hero wrong. The snake suddenly started for Link at lightning speed! The young boy screamed as he got hit right in the front and was sent flying.

Link hit the water, but slowly got to a sitting position so he could glare at the snake, who was now zooming all over the place, most likely being moved by the red string attached to its back.

"CHEAP SHOT, CHEAP SHOT, CHEAP SHOT, CHEAP-AAAAAAAAGGGGGHHHHH!" Link got hit once more.

Our hero realized that Puppet Ganon was going to show no mercy now that he was in snake form. Link looked at the creature, and gazed at the blue orb at the end of the tail. There was both a good and bad part to the weakness' position -- the good part was that the orb was trailing along on the ground, so it was in range. The bad part was that Puppet Ganon was racing around the room at lightning speed.

Link was jerked out of his thoughts when he noticed that Puppet Ganon was heading straight for him again! The boy screamed and leaped out of the way; the snake kept speeding around the room like mad.

"How the hell am I gonna kill this thing?" Link muttered angrily.

He figured his best option was to just try hard to hit the tail with his Light Arrows. Link put his plan into action...

Our hero ran forward as Puppet Ganon rushed him from the right. The creature made a sharp turn northwest, and just as it seemed the snake would hit the wall, it turned and zipped along the wall in a counter-clockwise direction. Link turned to look at Puppet Ganon, trotted backward a few steps, lifted his Hero's Bow, aimed, and fired. Unfortunately, Puppet Ganon moved too quickly, and the Light Arrow ended up hitting the wall.

"Shit..." Link muttered as he got another arrow ready.

Puppet Ganon lunged at Link suddenly, and the young boy did not have the chance to get away. The snake rammed into Link, sending him flying!

"AAAAAAAAHHHHHH!" Link screamed as he fell with a 'splash!' into the water.

Keeping in mind the fact that he had to be extremely careful, Link picked up his Hero's Bow (He let go of it and it landed a few feet away when he got hit.) and Light Arrows, and took aim at Phantom Ganon's orb again.

SUCCESS! Link's hit was lucky, it just barely hit the blue orb. Puppet Ganon jolted, but quickly recovered and started streaking around the room some more.

Link ran to the wall, raced counter-clockwise along it for a little while to better his view of his enemy's weakness, and fired another Light Arrow, but with no success. The arrow just hit Puppet Ganon on the side and bounced off; useless.

Link cursed and ran forward just as Puppet Ganon was coming at him from his old position. Our hero yelped as Puppet Ganon went for him again, so Link sped to the right. Puppet Ganon kept going straight until it reached the wall, where it ran along it clockwise. Link took a few more steps away from the wall, kept an eye on the marionette, then shot another arrow.

It was a good hit! The puppet fiend endured another injury and was momentarily paused before picking up its crazy movements once more.

Puppet Ganon was zooming around clockwise; Link decided to follow it. He ran after the horrible beast, and was only a few feet away from the blue orb. Link aimed his bow and shot, but suddenly, Puppet Ganon turned sharply and ran into Link.

Our hero cried out in agony as he took the hard blow and landed on his side a few yards away. Biting his lip, Link arose, knowing that just laying there would only result in more injury. The boy walked forward, stumbled a few steps, but then gained some more speed and much needed balance. Link watched Phantom Ganon cross his path and head to the wall again. Our hero let out a battle cry and ran at the creature's orb, which was trailing along behind it. He raised his bow, prepared a Light Arrow, and fired...

The arrow hit the blue orb. Suddenly, Puppet Ganon seemed to go mad; he sped around the room faster than before, his path was more chaotic. It was all Link could to avoid getting hit by the creature.

At last, after its little crazy spell, Puppet Ganon exploded. It was dead for sure this time. The battle was won!

Link panted, his hands on his knees. He shut his eyes tightly, but then opened one to make sure that Puppet Ganon was not transforming. Then he figured that the foe probably couldn't transform if he wasn't even there.

"You truly are the Hero of Winds..." a voice said from the rafters.

Link's eyes widened in surprise and he quickly looked up at the voice's owner. It was none other than the infamous Ganondorf... Link glared.

"YOU! WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT THING?" he yelled.

"I see you are worthy of a head-to-head battle with me... Well then, let us fight. Come to my lair at the top of this tower, and we shall let fate decide who wins and who loses..."

"Ok, you can stop this whole 'fate will decide' shit! And, by the way, DON'T YOU KNOW THAT THE SPICE GIRLS ARE SO LAME?"

But Ganondorf did not hear Link's comment, for he disappeared.

Our hero stood straight, took a deep breath, drew his sword, and clutched it tightly.

Link decided to take up Ganondorf's offer... He would defeat that physco Spice Girls fan once and for all, and put an end to his madness!

Our hero walked to the middle of the room where Puppet Ganon's red string hung, and started to climb it up to the rafters.

It was time to end this nightmare once and for all...
