Link arrived at the Spirit Temple. Everything looked so familiar yet so different at the same time. Panicked, Link began to wonder if he was losing some of his memory from the past. He hardly remembered the Shadow Temple, and secretly, was afraid to go in there too. Even though he's been in there before, it still looked scary.
Link looked to the left, then to the right. He thought very hard at where he went, and then the image popped up in his head like a fire blaze. He darted to the left. The huge boulder block was in his way, but he remembered the silver gauntlets. He strapped them on with ease and pushed the boulder the boulder out of the way with hardly any effort at all.
He made his way up the curling stairs into the room with the circular red carpet. Link was thankful that all the doors were unlocked. He ran through the door straight in front of him. He was almost there.
"What are you doing? Who are you!" Zelda asked, trying to shake free out of the ropes that confined her to the wall.
"That man was right, you are a whiner." Tarron said.
Zelda growled. "What do you want with me?"
"It's not you that I want. It's freedom." Tarron seemed to sound sadder than evil or smart-mouthed.
"Freedom? From what? You kidnapped me of your own will. Didn't you?"
Tarron shook his head. "Freedom is like a glass crystal. You must treat it with care and not abuse it, or it will break. And if it does break, you'd be surprised at what you could do to get it back. But why am I telling you this? I'm waiting for that guy in a green dress."
"It's called a tunic!" Zelda was surprised that she almost sounded like Link.
"I don't care. Just shut up and stop complaining. You're annoying me."
Zelda made one last attempt to shake free, but to no avail.
Link saw the huge statue. He looked for a moment. 'Why does it have no face?' Link thought to himself. He shook his head and remembered, 'Oh yeah, I burned it off so I could get to the boss.' Link hopped on the platform as it rose into the air. He used his longshot to reach the metal grate that opened itself for him.
He saw the four platforms and the huge one in the middle. Link climbed up the textured side and looked around. Where was his pursuer?
"I've been waiting for you." Said Tarron, lowering himself down on a piece of rock he was controlling.
"Where's Zelda?" asked Link, his patience growing thin.
"Don't worry, your girlfriend is safe."
"She's not my girlfriend!"
"Well she's over there anyway." Tarron pointed over Link's shoulder. Link turned around to the direction he was pointing to and saw Zelda, hanging from a wall by ropes on her wrists.
"Link! Help!" Yelled Zelda.
"Zelda! Don't worry; I'll get you down, somehow!"
"Link, this is a battlefield. Two people come in. One person comes out. Now, shut up and draw your weapon, Link!" Tarron demanded.
Before Link could draw his sword, Tarron already had many rocks surrounding him, eyes glowing green, floating in midair. He threw three at Link, two of them missed, but the last one hit Link in the chest and knocked him down to the ground.
Link hit the hard floor with a loud thud. He slowly opened his eyes and found himself staring at the ceiling. 'How'd he do that?' Link thought to himself.
"Link!" screamed Zelda, once again, trying to shake free.
"Shut up!" Tarron yelled back to her.
Link staggered back to his feet and jumped back onto the platform. "Back for more are you?" asked Tarron, throwing more boulders at him. Link was smart and informed this time. He dodged high rocks and jumped on ones that were below his abdomen.
"Is that all you got?" Link smirked, ready for more action.
Tarron wasn't expecting that, but still wasn't feeling intimidated just yet. He dropped the remaining rocks that he was 'holding' and faced the palm of his hand to the fire candles. In one great swoop, he made a huge line of fire head straight towards Link. Link's eyes went wide as he dove out of the way, barley escaping the burn.
Tarron kept throwing fireballs at Link. Link was having trouble keeping up. As soon as he dodged on fireball, there was another heading straight for his head!
"Link's getting tired." Zelda said to herself.
"What can I do?" Link thought to himself, "He's too powerful." Link suddenly came up with an idea so brilliant, he almost stopped dead in his tracks, but he didn't. "I just have to wait for him to-"
"Coward! Fight me back! I'll just have to finish you off! Right here! Right now!" Tarron yelled. He gathered up all the fire he could into one ball.
"Now's my chance!" Link whispered. He looked around, frantically, in his pocket for the piece of metal Shiori, the Tiger's sister, gave him. He beamed that he still held it in his hands.
Tarron threw to ball of fire as hard as he could at Link. Link, a little panicky, held up the piece of metal. "A….shield! A really, really, REALLY big shield!" he yelled. The metal glowed yellow and changed its shape into a huge, mirror-like shield. The fireball that hit with an amazing force pushed Link back so hard, he almost fell. But he planted his feet so firmly on the ground; he only made small, long holes in the ground.
The fireball ricocheted off the shield almost completely. Then it was headed right for Tarron! Tarron, stunned, but not paralyzed with fear, drew up as much rock as he could, as fast as he could, to protect him. The fire missed Tarron, but not by much. It was still close enough to burn him badly.
Tarron lunged at Link, his white hair flying everywhere. By this time, the shield had taken its original shape again. Link was confident he could beat him now. Now that he had an awesome cool weapon.
"Boomerang!" Link yelled. The metal glowed yellow as it transformed into a boomerang. He threw it at Tarron and missed his head by only inches. Instead, it cut off the left side of his hair completely off!
Tarron felt what was left of the left side of his hair. He looked angry now. "You bastard! That hair was all I had left of my family!"
"Your family is somehow connected to the left side of your hair?" asked Link.
Tarron eyes glowed light green in ire. He slowly levitated into the air. Rocks and fire in the air, swirled around him so fast, it was like a tornado. Link, seeing that he was distracted, ran over to Zelda and untied the ropes. Zelda, on her feet again, looked at the poor boy floating in the vortex of fire and earth.
Tarron blinked and realized what he was doing. He put his hands over his cheeks and went on his knees, still floating in midair. "No! Don't lose control, again! It took your family, don't let it take you!" Tarron yelled to himself.
(Now, my friend who's read this part said she saw this on teen titans. Let me tell you all now, I do NOT watch that show. All that you are reading here is stuff that came from my mind. If you've seen it somewhere before, then too bad. Please don't accuse me of plagiarism)
Huge rocks began to fall from the ceiling. The room was beginning to collapse.
"The temple's imploding! Let's get out of here!" Link yelled, grabbing Zelda's arm.
Link was about to run out of the temple, but Zelda pulled him back. She shook from his grip and ran toward the tornado. Link grabbed the back of Zelda's dress. "Are you crazy?"
"Evil or not, he's still just a child, we have to help him." Said Zelda.
"Fine!" Link pulled out the metal again. "Rod!" The metal transformed into a long dueling rod. "Go!"
Zelda ran into the tornado. Planting the rod into the floor to stay down. She looked up and spotted the crying Tarron floating in midair. She took out a white chain, Sheik's, and threw it up to Tarron's left foot. It dangled tightly around it. Zelda began pulling him down, like she was pulling down a kite.
Tarron opened his eyes when he was on the ground again. He looked up at Zelda, who had her hands on his shoulders. He just stared.
Link yelled to Zelda, "Zelda hurry! We don't have much time left!"
Zelda immediately turned around and ran out the door with Link. She figured now that he was on the ground; he'd be able to get out, right?
Outside the temple, Link looked at Zelda, sadly. "Link, you're staring. What's wrong?" asked Zelda, noticing his glance.
"It's just, what happened to that boy. He hasn't come out yet." Said Link.
"An individual such as him would be able to handle himself."
"That's not all."
"What?"
"Well, unless you want to go back to the Shadow Temple-"
"No!"
"This is the last temple. There's no where else to go after this."
"You're right. I don't want to go back to the castle. Or the Shadow Temple."
"I guess…this is good-bye." Link turned his head away. Eyes stinging.
"You're not going to give up that easily, are you? There's got to be another place to go! What was that place called….uhh….Termina?"
"Termina? I haven't been there in years. It would be as new and different to me as it does you."
"That's what makes it interesting. Please Link! Can we go?"
Link shrugged. "Ok, let's go."
Zelda shrieked with happiness. Link and Zelda walked back to the Gerudo Fortress. Link said that there might be something different about the temple if they ever went there. Then Link called Epona and they were soon riding off into the forest.
As they rode, Link wanted to tell Zelda why that boy came after them. He wanted Zelda to know that her so-called prince tried to kill him. But Link thought better of it, and decided to forget about it. She'd probably think he was lying anyway.
Back in the Kokiri forest, Link led Zelda to the part of the woods behind the late Deku Tree. They walked through the woods as little spotlights shined on the ground with the trees acting as filters. Zelda felt they had only taken a few steps on Epona when she looked behind her, but when she did, there were only clumps of trees.
"So, how did you find this place?" asked Zelda.
"It was a long time ago. I was searching for Navi when I came across this skull kid wearing a strange mask. His two fairy companions startled Epona and she bucked me off. But I know you didn't mean it girl." Link said in a high voice, stroking Epona's mane.
Zelda looked at Link weirdly. Link cleared his throat and continued his story, "Anyway, he took the Ocarina of Time away. I chased after him while he was on Epona. I grabbed his leg and was dragged along the ground. When he turned direction, I was flung off to the side and knocked out for a moment. When I awoke, he was gone, but I was able to follow him through this tunnel. I jumped over a bunch of stumps to get to it, and when I reached the end of the tunnel, I was falling into an abyss. After a confrontation, the skull kid, who I think lived and still lives in the Kokiri forest, turned me into a Deku scrub. I was able to get the ocarina back, and then save their world."
"That's amazing!"
By the time Link finished the story, they had come up to the tunnel. The trip seemed shorter than the first time he went there. He jumped off Epona and helped Zelda down. They both stood in the entrance of the temple.
"Zelda, for a brief moment, you will be afraid. I was too, but don't be. I'm here for you. The next thing you will see, it a small room, a puddle, a deku flower, and a door in front of you."
"I'm ready Link." Said Zelda.
Link took Zelda's hand and in the next moment, they both jumped down the abyss, into the endless night…..
