WOW I ACTUALLY UPDATED WOOT! Everyone I am sorry about not updating. I haven't really cared too much about writing actually. I have no idea how soon the next chapter is going to be up. Well here is the story.
Link ran as fast as he could back to Torec's cabin to tell him about the sword. When Link got to the cabin he noticed that no one was there. He noticed a letter on the table. The note read:
Link,
We have gone into the forest. Don't worry, just wait at the cabin. We will be back before sunset. We brought that dagger so we will have something to use if we have any trouble.
After Link finished reading the letter he decided to go outside and try out his new sword while he waited. When he got outside he took out his sword. He realized it was extremely light. It felt as though he had no sword at all. Link was able to swing this sword twice as fast as his last sword. Due to it being so light Link figured he could use this twice as long before he would get tired. As Link continued to train Torec and Zelda came back.
"Hey", Torec shouted, "we're back."
"Oh". Link responded.
"I see you got a new sword".
"Yea I went through this test in order to get it". Link told Torec about the tests and about the weight and speed of the sword. "By the way where were you?"
"Oh we were just looking for the treasure". Torec said.
"Oh". Link said.
"Yea so what is that sword like? Is it as good as your old sword or no?" Torec asked.
"Well I'm not too sure but I think it might be just as good or maybe even better. It is a lot lighter and faster. I still have to try it out on something though to see how strong it is. Also my gems work in it so that is really good." Link said as he was showing Torec the sword.
"That's cool, well tomorrow we will go back out and look again, but now I am going to go and get us something to eat I'll let you know when it's ready." With that Torec left and went inside the cabin. Link decided to go into the forest to try the new sword on something.
"Blood… need blood…"
"Huh, who's there?" Link started to draw his sword.
"Kill… very soon our time will come… soon… soon…"
"Whoever you are show yourself!" Link started to move deeper into the forest. He saw it. Knowing that is what it was coming from. The monastery. No, no not there. Link realized it was getting dark and he should head back. Then he heard the scream again. This time though it was worse. It was as if it was right night to him. Link started to run away. Then a mysterious figure appeared. It carried duel scimitars that looked as if they were thirsting for blood. The figure looked somewhat familiar but was all grotesque that it was hardly recognizable but Link felt as if he met with this thing before.
"Who and what are you?" Link questioned the creature.
"You don't recognize me? Aww I am so hurt." The creature taunted. "I should have killed you when I had the chance. You still don't know do you? Is your skull still hurting? Are you happy you almost choked me to death? Yea it's me. The reason I look like I do is from my master giving me my power." The grotesque thief said as he pointed to the monastery.
"You're from the monastery!" Link asked extremely surprised.
"Yes along with my master and his followers. Not much longer and the great one will be released… not much longer. But now I have to follow my master's orders and achieve the talisman and dispose anyone I meet." With the demonic thief lunged at Link with speed Link never before saw. Link brought up his shield just in time to not be decapitated by the two swords. Link brought his sword around just missing the thief's neck. The thief lunged at Link again and just got Link's arm. Link's arm went numb and he dropped his shield. Knowing he didn't have much of a chance now with the thief's speed he decided to just attack repeatedly hoping the thief wouldn't have a chance to attack again for Link knew that would be his end. Link started with a jumping spinning attack followed by three repeated stabs all of which the thief easily dodged. Link started to do a downward strike but stopped and stabbed hoping to trick the thief. It worked; Link stabbed the thief right through his chest. When Link removed the sword the thief just laughed.
"You thought it would be that simple did you. Ha I cannot die for I am beyond death. None of your foolish attacks can hurt me." The thief said. His wound already fully healed.
"Shit!" Link shouted. Knowing he had almost no chance to win he put in the power gem into his sword and equipping the amulet of speed. Knowing if this didn't work he would be dead. The thief attacked again and Link now able to move faster dodged and sliced the thief's arm. The sword started to glow a deeper blood red. The cut in the thief did not go away this time and the thief started to get worried who realized that he can be killed even further… where whatever is left from his dark soul will be gone and he will forever be in torture, but he couldn't run for his master would do worse. He attacked again which was dodged and he was cut again, this time feeling the extreme pain of the magic. This time Link, taking advantage of the thief's distraction, attacked as fast as possible slicing into the thief's neck. The thief fell blood purple blood oozing from the open wound. Link went and picked up his shield and ran back to the cabin, his wound still bleeding badly and oozing a green fluid. He opened the door to the cabin and passed out onto the floor.
There you go I WILL have the next chapter up before too long. A lot sooner than this one was.
