Link learns about the Gerudo's history, and why Ganondorf did what he did. This leads Link to self-reflect, before more conflicts arise...
"I...I never knew that Ganondorf's revenge ran that deep. Perhaps...it was easier for me to see him just as he Demon King, a man that I just needed to run the Master Sword through. Never did I think twice about seeing him as anything more than a greedy man desiring the triforce all to himself." Link admitted to himself.
The Golden Wolf then walked up to Link.
"Don't linger in guilt, my son. I too had that same mindset when I was of flesh and bones." he admitted to Link.
Link thought about everything that Princess Zelda told him.
"So then...you really believe that giving birth to his child will end this cycle of hatred." he asked her.
Zelda nodded, placing a hand on her stomach.
"Yes. I do." she admitted, with a hint of sadness in her voice.
Link got to his feet as he saw Zelda's eyes darken with depression.
"But why, Princess?! It's not fair to you! Why do you have to put this on yourself?!" Link asked her upset.
The Princess shook her head.
"It's not just about me anymore, Link." she reasoned.
"It's about all of us. Ganondorf's rage and malice bled over to the Twilight Realm, resulting in a power struggle between the Twilight and Hyrule." she stated as she looked at her fellow monarch, Princess Midna.
The Twilight Princess frowned as she heard their history while Zelda continued to speak on the present.
"If Ganondorf now has an intergalactic space army at his disposal, then there's no telling what his malice could do, or where his malice could go. That's why...if I go through with this, I'll finally put an end to this misery, even if I have to sacrifice my own happiness in the process. I am the Princess of Hyrule after all, as well as the wielder of the triforce of wisdom, so it is my responsibility to preserve the land of the goddesses to the best of my abilities." Zelda proclaimed.
Link bit his lip in frustration.
"But still..."
This is when The Golden Wolf realized that Link needed some 1 on 1 discussion.
"Link." he said to him.
This made Link turn to him.
"Why don't I talk to you in private? Perhaps there's something else that's going on." He offered to Link.
Link looked around and saw that everyone was staring at him again, so he took the offer and nodded.
"Okay fine." he replied.
"Princess Midna, would you mind if you created two barrier of Twilight to separate me and Link from you all for the night?" The Hero's shade asked Midna.
Midna grinned mischievously. She loved showing off her powers, especially in front of Link and Samus.
"Not a problem." she responded.
With a wave of her hands, the area was once again covered in Twilight. This was a special kind of Twilight, as it wouldn't make Link turn into a wolf, especially since he has the Master Sword with him.
"Hmph. You never cease to surprise me, your highness." The Golden Wolf remarked to himself.
Now it was just the ladies by themselves. Before any of them could start to undress or start to sleep, Midna spoke out.
"Samus, I want to talk with Zelda outside of the barrier in private. We'll be back later on tonight." Midna informed her ally.
Zelda was caught off guard by her fellow monarch's suggestion, but didn't fight it. She simply nodded as she looked at Samus as well.
The bounty hunter responded politely.
"Got it. Be safe, and let me know if either of you need anything." Samus replied to Midna.
The two princesses both nodded as they left the barrier, leaving Samus all by herself on the female side of the Twilight Barrier.
Link and OOT Link discuss the situation, and Zelda's offer. Ultimately, he encourages Link to take Zelda's offer...
"Wait seriously?! You're telling me to become Princess Zelda's personal knight?" Link said to the golden wolf.
The furry shook his head.
"No. I'm simply encouraging you for many reasons. Allow me to explain." he began.
"Princess Zelda will give birth to Ganondorf's child, thereby automatically making that child a Guerdo. We also know from the cycle that their child will be a girl. Guerdo genes are dominant, which means that Zelda's child will have dark skin like her...father...and her hair might be brown, crimson, or even blonde depending on the mixed genes." he added.
Link looked down and processed the information. The Golden Wolf continued.
"You do realize what this means, right Link? This changes everything. From now until the end of time itself, Hyrule's princess will always be a Guerdo. It is inevitable that this will become public. It will create mixed reactions. Some may think that Zelda has betrayed her people and voluntarily slept with the Demon King. Others will think that this is a curse from the goddesses. Others will lose hope in Hyrule all together. There's no telling what kind of explaining that Princess Zelda has to do once Ganondorf's child starts to grow in her belly." The Hero's Shade stated.
Link rubbed his head, feeling uneasy about the subject at hand.
"Yes...I...wasn't thinking that far ahead." Link admitted to himself and to his father.
The Golden Wolf nodded.
"That is why it is ESSENTIAL that the next Zelda will be raised with love, compassion, and benevolence. If you're at Zelda's side, you can be her bigger brother, and I can provide overwatch as the Godfather, just like I did in your journey a couple of years ago. Of course, her biological father will be Ganondorf, but there's no way that he will be able to see his child. The princess is still suffering from PTSD. You also bear the triforce within yourself, just like Princess Zelda. If the two of you are always next to each other, then Ganondorf can and will never win, let alone do what he did to Zelda ever again." he reasoned further.
All Link could do was nod and process all of this information.
"Those are good points..." he said out loud.
The Hero's Shade then looked up to the heavens.
"Come to think of it, this would be a perfect opportunity to pass on the hidden skills to the knights of the castle, even if it's just one or two of them. I'm aware that my hidden skills cuts one's lifespan and takes a serious amount of mental and physical toughness, so I'd expect the process to take some time." The golden wolf added.
This made Link smile thinking back to their intense training. It was the first of few times that he truly felt alive and worth something.
"You'd also have a solid spot of obtaining the purpose in life that you were desiring." The Golden Wolf smiled at Link.
Link's eyes widened.
"You mean..." Link began.
The Golden Wolf nodded.
"Yes..." he said.
"...you could have the space warrior, Samus Aran, to accompany you too. I'm sure that if you ask her to go with you once this is all over, then she'll accept it without question." he pointed out.
Link's face lit up with such joy and delight.
"Wow! I...I mean I love that idea...but..."
Another person in his mind cause him to see that it was not that simple. He envisioned The Twilight Princess cuffing his cheeks and smiling warmly at him.
"Midna..." Link murmured.
Two futures ran through Link's mind. One with Midna, being at her side - touching her - kissing her - making love with her - having a new prince or princess with her - and ruling the Twilight Realm at her side as her King. The other future that Link envisioned was here in this realm, being Princess Zelda's personal guard, and more importantly...being with Samus. The same could be said with each other. If things played out the way that favored them, Link could have the same results with Samus like with Midna.
Link began to speak again.
"...she's...she's offered me the same position. For so long, I've wanted to see her again. I've been heartbroken ever since...but now she's back and promising me what I've desired every since I became close with her since our journey to defeat Zant and Ganondorf - to be at her side. Knowing her, I'd probably gesture that she would offer more...Ugh! Gosh I sound like a broken record at this point. I guess what I'm trying to say is that...I mean...I...I..."
Link's words trailed off.
"Let it out, my son." his father encouraged him.
.
.
.
Link took a deep breath, and looked to his father.
"I love Midna." he admitted.
.
.
.
That's when he immediately clutched his head with his hands.
"But it's not that simple anymore! Now I've met Samus! We're...partners...allies...and we've built chemistry stronger than anyone that I've come across before. She's so beautiful and graceful, and her heart is so pure and golden. Let's not forget that she's literally from OUTTER SPACE. I mean...between you and me, if Midna hadn't come back, then I could have seen myself settling down with Samus and moving on with my life. That is...if she feels the same way with me."
The Golden Wolf smiled at his last comment. He was glad that Link got that off of his chest.
"Well...I'll tell you right now that both ladies are madly in love with you, so ya don't have to worry if the feelings are reciprocated." he assured the warrior.
Link nodded and couldn't help but smile.
"Be wary, Link, I'd advise you to look even further and ask yourself what you truly desire. While Princess Zelda's offer is on the table, and would make the most logical sense to me, I'll support whatever decision that you make in the end." The Golden Wolf proclaimed.
Link loved the fact that his father was backing him up no matter what. It was something that he knew that he could lean on.
"Thanks old man. I appreciate that." he teased his Dad.
The Golden Wolf smirked.
"Alright, I'm going to do some scouting. I need you to freshen up. We can't have you stinking near three beautiful women with two of them being royal princesses." he teased Link.
With that, The Golden Wolf teleported out of the Twilight Barrier and went to see Ordon Village...
On the ladies side, Midna takes Zelda outside of the barrier and to the cliff of Ordon Spring, overseeing the entire village and region. There, she bargains with Zelda to reconsider her offer to Link...by any means necessary...
"So what did you want to talk about?" Zelda asked Midna.
Once they were on the cliff of Ordon Spring, Midna took a deep breath. She knew what she was going to say, and would persuade Zelda to agree with her...by any means necessary...
.
.
.
"I'm sorry, but Link just can not become your personal knight." Midna stated to Zelda.
Zelda's eyes widened. Out of all of the things, she wasn't expecting Midna to say that.
"W-Why not?" she protested to her best friend.
This is when Midna made her move. On some levels, this could be seen as unforgivable, but to her, it was justifiable. Gently, Midna cuffed Zelda's chin with her delicate hand, which caused the princess of Hyrule to blush heavily.
"~My love...~" Midna purred to Zelda.
"~...if Link was around you all of the time once this is all over, then how would I be able to be with you?~" Midna reasoned with her.
It was obvious that Midna was seducing Zelda and playing on her love for her, but even with the triforce of wisdom, Zelda still couldn't see that. Perhaps...maybe she did, but she didn't care either way...because it was working. Princess Zelda's heart skipped a beat, and for the first time, she felt like her dream would become a reality.
"You mean...you want to marry me my love?" Zelda gladfully responded.
This is where Midna couldn't manipulate her approach.
"My answer still remains the same..." she regretfully informed her.
Zelda's heart sank again as her dreams were shattered again, but before the princess could drown in despair, her fellow monarch, reassured her something.
"...but...I could still make love to with you." she offered to Zelda.
This made Zelda look back up to Midna's red eyes. Seeing Zelda's blue eyes made Midna smirk.
"Y-you...you mean you..." Zelda said blushing.
Midna nodded.
"It's like I said before, I enjoyed your kiss from before, so I wouldn't mind if we took our relationship to the next level. Consider this being...friends with benefits. I know that this is not exactly the answer that you desired, but surely this is a win either way, no?" Midna reasoned with her best friend.
Zelda's body was rapidly heating up. Her mind swarmed itself with limitless possibilities.
Would this be even better than marrying her? Zelda thought to herself.
"Well...yes...but I mean...it does sound a bit scandalous." Zelda admitted.
Midna titled her head seductively.
.
.
.
"Scandalous you say? You mean like this?"
.
.
.
In the next moment, Midna descended her cherry lips upon Zelda's royal pairs. This time, Zelda was the one to be caught by surprise. Her mind immediately went blank as she kissed Midna back with all of her might. Midna secretly admitted to herself that perhaps she was bisexual herself. Zelda tasted amazing, and they ended up kissing again, over and over again. It wasn't until Zelda needed to breath was when they stopped kissing.
"~Did that make you feel a bit better?~" Midna murmured to Zelda, inches away from her face.
The princess of Hyrule was still dazed by the kissing, but managed to barely nod her head.
"Y-Yes...it did." she admitted softly.
Midna was satisfied with her work. Her devious mind filled itself with new possibilities. With Zelda madly in love with her, and her ability to seduce her to sway her mind, it opened the door for many fun activities down the road.
"~Hehe...same here.~" Midna admitted to her.
But as Midna began to remove her hands from Zelda's face, Zelda grabbed them and leaned up to kiss Midna again. Then she crashed her hands on Midna's chest and pleaded heavily to her.
"Midna! Please! Let's just stay here, and make love! Right here! Right now!" she begged the Twilight Princess.
Midna was quite shocked and blown away by Zelda's request. She took a wild guess that the kissing made her very aroused, and if Zelda were to lift her royal skirt right now, it'd probably be soaking wet.
"As...as much as I'd love that...now is not the right time or place to do so." Midna reasoned with Zelda.
Despite this, Zelda didn't back down.
"You're right...but still...we can we?" she pleaded with Midna.
The Twilight Princess looked around, see if anyone was secretly watching them. They were just by themselves.
"I'll...think of a time and place. Right we need to focus on taking back our kingdoms." Midna stated to Zelda.
Zelda frowned but nodded.
"Yes...you're right." she said disappointed.
Midna frowned upon seeing this, but then quickly stole another kiss from Zelda again to lift her spirits. It worked as Zelda smiled warmly, and they began to hold hands.
"Here...come back to the barrier and sleep next to me." Midna offered Zelda.
They held each other's hands as they walked back down the cliff and back to the camp that Midna set up for them. Suddenly, Princess Zelda stopped in her tracks.
"Huh? What is it?" Midna asked her.
"I smell...smoke. I think that it's coming from Ordon Village." Zelda stated looking back at the cliff.
Midna wanted to check it out, but her heart tugged at her to go back to camp, in case the busty bounty hunter was trying to get to her wolf before she did.
"Ordon Village might just be having a bonfire to lift up their spirits. The village has grown bigger and stronger in these past two years." Midna argued.
It was true, the village had grown exponentially larger since the events of Twilight Princess.
"Yeah...I guess you're right..." Zelda said still a bit worried.
Midna then took a deep breath, and squeezed Zelda's hand.
"Fine. If you're a bit worried, then let's go to back to camp and get everyone to make sure that everything's okay in the village." Midna bargained to her.
Zelda nodded, and they both continued to walk back to camp. Throughout their walk, Zelda's hand felt like it was hot.
The triforce of wisdom...it's trying to tell me something...she told herself in her head.
As Midna and Zelda were heading back to the camp, Samus was able to have time by herself. She meld up the courage to have a heart-to-heart conversation with Link and about their possible future together...
Come on, Samus. You got this. Samus told herself.
With Midna and Zelda off on the cliffside, Samus was left alone of her side of the Twilight Barrier. She was pacing back and forth, remembering what to say to Link and to make sure that she doesn't come off as awkward or weird.
You've fought and defeated creatures that could threaten the entire galaxy and the universe at large, so one conversation with a man shouldn't be a problem...right? You can tell him. You can do it! Samus reasoned with herself.
Now she was flustered. She patted her cheeks to relieve her blushing a bit. After taking a deep breath, she placed her hand on the Twilight barrier that separated the men from the women.
Midna didn't tell me exactly how I could get out of this barrier, but because my suit has been infused with Twilight Magic, what if I just...
It proved fruitful as her hand passed right through the barrier. She felt a tickle through her skin, but that was probably due to her Twilight Suit being affected by the magic.
Hey! It worked! she said to herself.
.
.
.
Now on the other side of the barrier, she looked around until she found Link sitting down looking at the sky. Once she saw him, Samus didn't blink.
His shirt was off, revealing his seasoned muscles and abs. It seemed as though that he'd just washed his hair. It glistered in the moonlight. On top of that, his battle scars made him more attractive than Samus anticipated. Saliva collected in the space warrior's mouth as her mind pictured what it would be like to drag her smooth hands all over them. She was a woman in her prime and youth after all. With them being alone and with privacy only made things better.
"Link..." she murmured.
That voice caught Link's attention as he realized that Samus was staring at him.
"Oh gosh! S-S-Samus, I didn't see you there! Sorry!" Link said as he quickly fetched his shirt to put it on.
Samus' face turned cherry as she realized that she was caught staring.
"W-What?! Um! No you're fine! I was just...um...checking up on you, that's all. Sorry for startling you!" she managed to get out.
Link's face was also crimson, being that Samus was very attractive to him and her zero suit wasn't exactly leaving much to one's imagination. Similar sexual thoughts ran through his mind as he realized that they were both alone by themselves.
"Oh okay...thanks. Is everything alright on your end with the two other princesses?"
Samus nodded, albeit a bit unorthodox.
"Y-Yeah, they went out of the barrier to talk on their own, and I just felt like seeing you for a bit." Samus admitted.
Link nodded, but didn't respond back. This created and awkward yet cute silence between the two. Neither didn't look each other in the eyes again until Samus spoke out to break the ice.
"Um...hey Link?" she called out to him.
Link's eyebrows raised up.
"Yeah? What's up?" he responded.
Samus swallowed the extra saliva that was in her mouth. It was hard to find her words with Link being so attractive to her. She didn't necessarily have a normal childhood either, so knowing how to properly socialize with people, especially a handsome man like Link, was still new to her. On top of that, it wasn't like she was praised for being such a beautiful woman all of her life either, with the exception being Anthony Higgs constantly calling her a "princess" back in the day. Due to this, her confidence as a woman wasn't as high as someone like Midna, or perhaps even Zelda for the matter.
"I was just wondering about...ya know...what was it like when you first became a hero? How did you become the hero that you are today?" Samus asked him.
This wasn't a foreign question, since she asked something similar to that back in Hyrule Castle, however Link knew that she wanted him to reaffirm some things again.
"Me? A hero? Oh I uhhh...well if I'm being honest, it was very nerve-racking. I had a lot of trouble with my self-confidence, and I had no idea what the outside world was like until I had to travel with Epona all across Hyrule. For your second question...well...I wouldn't have been the hero that you see today without the support from everyone around me." Link admitted to Samus.
Samus couldn't help but smile. He too knew what it was like to not have the best confidence in the world, which made her feel that she could trust him with more of her emotions.
"That's very nice to hear." Samus said smiling sweetly at Link.
That smile melted Link's heart. It was perfect! Even still, he had to hold his ground. Samus' response was tugging at him to go further with his heart.
"And the truth is...I'm glad that you are here with me. I'm sure that with us working together, then we'll be unstoppable." Link admitted.
Samus' heart warmed up like it was a bonfire on Christmas.
"Wow...that really means a lot to me, Link...and...I'm glad that you are here with me as well. Normally I prefer to work alone, but you made me see what's possible with surrounding yourself with allies." Samus admitted.
Link smile was like fireworks to her. She couldn't look away from him. She felt so calm around him that it led her to speak about what she wanted to say from the start.
"There's something that I've been wanting to tell you...um..." Samus mumbled. She turned away as her confidence fluctuated. Her heart was pounding in her chest.
"Yeah? What's up?" Link said as he approached her.
Even though he didn't mean it, Link was making it difficult for Samus to think clearly. She was turning a bit cherry the more he came closer.
"Do you...I mean...I just...we..." Samus tried to get out.
She began to fan her face with her hands. Link walked up to her and cuffed her cheek, sending electricity down Samus' body.
"Are you alright?" Link asked her.
Samus' blue eyes widened. Link was so close to her that she could smell his sweet breath. He was so pure that he could've seduce her even if he wasn't trying to.
"Yeah I'm f-f-fine, it's just..." Samus responded.
Finally, she recomposed herself. Her hands found Link's shoulders, catching Link off guard. It just registered that her sweet breath breezed across his face as well. With all the cards on the table, Samus finally said what she wanted to say.
.
.
.
"If we make it through this...could we-"
*WOOSH*
A loud sound of someone entering the barrier interrupted their precious moment together. Their heads turned to see The Golden Wolf jumped back into their Twilight Camp.
"-Link! Samus!" he called out to both of them.
Both Link and Samus removed their hands from each other. It wasn't because they wanted to, but because now their privacy was ruined. However, it seemed like the hero's shade was in distress.
"Father?! What is it?!" Link responded to him.
"Get your gear and meet me at Ordon Village. It's being attacked by Space Pirates and Shadow Beasts!" he informed them.
Both of their eyes widened. Link cursed under his breath.
"What?! Seriously?! I didn't even know-GRR!" Link before dropping to his knees.
Samus knelt beside him and put a hand on his shoulder.
"Link! What's wrong?!" she asked him concerned.
Link looked at his hand. The mark of the triforce was glowing brightly, as well as giving him a sharp pain. He knew what this meant.
.
.
.
"He's here..." Link grunted.
.
.
.
"Ganondorf." The Golden Wolf finished for him.
The Hero of Time turned his crimson eyes to the bounty hunter.
"Samus! Which direction did Princess Zelda and Princess Midna go?!" he asked her.
"Cliffside of Ordon Spring!" she immediately responded pointing in that direction.
"Link! Samus! Both of you get to the village! I'll go get Princess Midna and Princess Zelda!" he ordered before bolting to the cliffside.
"Right!" they both responded in unison.
Link quickly grabbed his Hylian Shield and The Legendary Master Sword, while Samus activated her Twilight Suit. Inside her suit, Samus frowned.
I didn't get to ask Link about...NO! Stop it! We have bigger things to worry about at the moment. Mission first! she reasoned with herself.
Together, they raced across the pathway to get to Ordon Village.
Space Pirates and Shadow Beast were currently raiding Ordon Village. While their raid isn't exactly clear at the moment, the purpose of their raid is soon revealed to be sinister and maliceful...
"GAAHHHH!" a swordsman cried out as his life was taken by a shadow beast.
Rusl slayed that same shadow beast, and continued to defend the village.
"Don't give up men! Fight until your last breath!" The leader spoke out.
In the past two years, Ordon Village has grown exponentially in size and population. Due to the invasion of Twilight, the village has concentrated more of their efforts into creating a miniature army so that they could defend themselves incase something like this were to happen again. Rusl has become the lead swordsman of the village following Link's departure two years ago. While the village suffered some casualties, they were in deed pushing back the enemy forces.
In Rusl's home, a young man was in his room with his mother and his baby sister. Something was on his mind. He was clenching his knuckles until they turned pale. He couldn't take it anymore.
If Link was here...he wouldn't hide or run. He'd stand and fight! Colin protested in his mind.
Then he got up, and took a spare Ordon sword from his room. His mother, Uli, desperately grabbed his wrist in vein, since the other hand was clenching her infant daughter.
"Colin?! Colin my son! Please don't do it! I can't lose you!" she pleaded with him.
Colin looked back at his mother who had tears in her eyes. Even though she meant well, Colin wouldn't forgive himself if he hid in the house in fear.
"I'm sorry, mother, but I have to do this..." Colin said as he pried his mother's hand off of his wrist.
"Colin!" Uli cried out to him.
It fell on death ears as Colin locked the door behind him and bolted out of the house.
.
.
.
Colin's eyes were shocked at the sight: Ordon Village looked like a warzone. Fire and smoke came from different houses, and enemies were engaged with many swordsman and warriors from Hyrule's army. Colin quickly recomposed himself and got straight to work.
"HYAAA!" he cried out as he slashed one of the shadow beast with his sword.
*Unbeknownst to most people, Link and Rusl trained with Colin before he left the village after the events of Twilight Princess. Colin's skills and swordsmanship are now on par with Link before in invasion of Twilight!*
Rusl finally noticed his son on the battlefield.
"Colin? No! Get back in the house! You need to watch your sister and your mother!" he cried out to him.
But he couldn't get to him. Space Pirates and shadow beasts were destroying the village and occupying his energy. Finally, the man that led this raid made his presence known to the young man that was slaying his minions.
.
.
.
"Well well well. What do we have here?" the King of Thieves sneered out.
He was on his dark house and stared down Colin.
Once they locked eyes with each other, Colin instinctively knew that this man was boss of the bosses. His skin crawled and his limbs trembled in his presence. The orange hair and the dark skin was nothing that Colin had every seen in his life. Even still, Colin stood his ground and took his stance, not letting his fear get the better of him. This made the Demon King smile.
"Hmph. I see...so you've been inspired by the hero, eh? Ya got guts, kid. I'll give you that." Ganondorf appalled.
Unbeknownst to Colin, Ganondorf was getting flashbacks of when he first encountered the Hero of Time all of those years ago. It was being back a lot of memories.
"I'll let you in on a little secret. I led the raid of this village to personally break that hero's heart, and to gather women to repopulate my race." Ganondorf revealed to Colin.
Colin raised his eyebrow on that second intel. While he was now a teen, he didn't really know what the leader was getting at. Ganondorf saw his reaction and proceeding with his next words.
"How about it kid? Do you want to come with me and become a conquer? Or do you want me to give you a heroic death?" he bargained with the young man.
Colin's heart skipped a beat. For a second, he saw the grim reaper in the face as he realized where his choices got him. Even with this realization, Colin clenched his Ordon Sword, ready to fight Ganondorf until his last breath.
"Suit yourself, kid." Ganondorf utter disappointed.
Then, the Demon King jumped off his horse and unsheathed his divine sage sword. He lifted it to the heavens before striking down at his opponent.
.
.
.
"FALL BEFORE ME!" Ganondorf bellowed out.
"No! COLIN!" His father cried out.
.
.
.
In the next moment, Ganondorf's sage sword sparked against the sword that seals the darkness instead of splitting Colin in two. Everyone on the battlefield turned to the Demon King as he was now standing in front of a familiar hero that ran the Master Sword through his chest two years ago.
.
.
.
"Hmph. About time you showed up." Ganondorf snickered to the Hero of Twilight.
Link stared Ganondorf dead in the eyes. This was the first time that they encountered each other since that fateful day. On top of that, the golden wolf bared his fangs intensely at the Demon King next to Link and Samus. The triforce of power and the triforce of courage glowed brightly. Their presence were so intense that it created an invisible shockwave, slowly blowing Colin back. Fortunately, he was caught by a mysterious ninja warrior, who had a shadow that could kill Space Pirates undetected. The ninja warrior had the mark of the triforce as well.
"L-Link?! Is that really you?!" Colin managed to get out.
Without turning around, Link smiled.
"Yeah...thanks for having courage Colin." he praised.
Just as Ganondorf was about to make his next move, the space warrior that wore a Chozo-Infused Twilight Suit pointed her arm canon at the back of Ganon's skull.
"Don't move, unless you want me to vaporize your skull into ashes." Samus threatened the Demon King.
Ganondorf turned his amber eyes to Samus, and smirked.
"Ahh...the intergalactic bounty hunter, eh? The Commanders told me everything about you." he teased her.
Link was here for games. He pointed his sword to Ganondorf's neck, but the Demon King of unfazed.
"Call off this raid, Ganondorf! If you want to fight someone - FIGHT ME!" Link demanded.
They knew that killing Ganondorf would only temporarily solve their problem. He'd just reincarnate and they'd have to start all over again. Even still, they would be willing to kill him if he didn't cooperate.
Just then, a shadow beast approached the group of warriors.
"Sire! We've captured all of the subjects in this village!" the beast sneered out.
Ganondorf turned to the beast and grinned manically.
"Excellent."
Link and Samus briefly looked at each other.
"What is he talking about? What have you've done?!" Link demanded.
Ganondorf snickered to himself.
"You'll know soon enough, hero. I take it that you've met with the Princess, so use her as a hint. We'll have our rematch soon enough, but for now, I bid you farewell..." Ganondorf said before teleporting away through Twilight magic.
Link and everyone else quickly defeated the remaining shadow beasts and space pirates. Once the entire village was cleared, the mayor called out to Link.
"Link!" The Mayor cried out.
He was running like the wind to see him. Once he reached him, he was huffing and puffing.
"Thank God that you showed up!" he breathed out.
"We suffered minimal casualties, but...they kidnapped all of the young women from our village!" he stated in horror.
In that moment, Link's heart sank. With that information, he instinctively knew what that meant.
"Ilia...Anika..." he murmured to himself in dread.
In turns out, the lust and revenge of the Demon King was not satisfied with Princess Zelda alone. His desires have led him to seek out more women than just the Princess. Now...Ilia, Anika, and all of the young women from Ordon Village have found themselves locked up in an unknown location...
"Where...am I?" Ilia croaked out.
Her head was throbbing, and her arms were suspended above her head - bound by chains. The room was dark and mysterious. She concluded that she was alone, but her analysis proved incorrect...

"You have more important things to worry about, young woman. I take it that you grew up with that hero, eh?" a sadistic voice spoke out.

Echoes of footsteps came from the darkness in the room. Ilia's heart pounded as she realized that someone else was here.
"W-what? You mean...Link?" Ilia responded out of fear.
The man smirked.
"Ahh...so you do know him? Magnificent." he responded.
Then, the man stepped into the light, and revealed himself to the young woman. Standing almost 7 feet tall stood the King of the Guerdos. He looked down and smiled deviously at Ilia.
"It'll be all the more satisfying to see his face when he realizes what I've done to his precious dear friend." Ganondorf proclaimed.
Thank you all so much for the support for this story! Please - I'd love to hear from you all what you think of this story, especially this chapter (scene by scene), in regards to the suspense, romance, tragedy, plot, etc. I spent a lot of time, thought, effort, and energy into making every chapter. Even if you just comment saying, "I enjoyed this chapter a lot" or something like that would be very much appreciated! Question: If you were Link, who would you choose? Midna? Samus? Anika? Would you have chosen Ilia before? Perhaps try to get all of them? XD Anyways, next chapter will be a...well...I'm sure that you all can guess what will happen next. See you all in the next chapter!
