Thank you all and here's the third chapter of "Three Worlds Apart!"

*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*

Link and Zelda continued to sit by the lake until they saw the waters turn black.

"What's happening?" Zelda asked standing up.

Link looked at the sky and saw black clouds cover every bit of blue in it.

"Ganondorf," he whispered.

Worry filled Zelda's eyes.

"Let's get out of here," he said and grabbed Zelda's hand.

The two turned around to run until they saw him. Ganondorf was standing there with his arms crossed over his chest and an evil grin across his face.

"My, my, I have not seen you two in eight years," he said.

"Ganondorf, how did you----"

"Escape?" Ganondorf asked. "Stupid elf! I have the Triforce of Power! Did you honestly think that those Sages could hold me forever?"

"What did you do to the Sages?" Zelda asked with panic.

"Oh, I got rid of them," he said with a sick look of pleasure on his face.

"You murderous pig!" Zelda snarled and leapt towards Ganondorf until Link grabbed her.

"If I had the Master Sword with me I would cut you down into a million pieces," Link said through gritted teeth.

"I'm sure you would," Ganondorf replied sarcastically.

He then walked away from the two elves and turned around to look at them.

"Enough talk," he said. "I shall get rid of you two meddlesome elves for good!"

That was it.

Zelda cried out and ran towards Ganondorf.

Ganondorf smiled and held his hand out.

Light surrounded Zelda and she disappeared.

"Zelda!" Link gasped in terror. "What did you do to her?!"

"The same thing I'll do to you!" Ganondorf said and surrounded Link in the same light.

"Now Hyrule will be mine,"

*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*

"Where am I?" Link mumbled.

"You are in Burmecia," came a female's voice, but it was not Zelda's.

(A/N: Yes, I got that name from Final Fantasy 9. I'm also going to use a name from Final Fantasy 7 for this mysterious female.)

Link's eyes shot open and he found himself in a small house made from wood and straw. He also saw someone he did not know. In this house was an elven woman. Her skin was dark and she had long brown hair and brown eyes. (A/N: Picture a Spanish elf.)

"Who are you?" Link asked.

"I am Aeris," she said. "I found you lying in the woods and brought you here,"

"Where's Zelda?" he asked.

"I'm sorry, but I know no one named Zelda," she said.

"I have to find Zelda," he said. "I have to get back to Hyrule."

"Hyrule?" Aeris asked. "What's that?"

"Hyrule is where I'm from," he said. "Only thing is, how do I get back?"

"The village elder should know," she said. "He knows everything about every country."

"Can you take me to him?" he asked.

"Yes," she answered.

He got up and followed her outside.

Burmecia was a small village. It was no at all like Hyrule. All the houses were small and made from wood and straw.

Children ran around playing and adults were standing around the markets buying food.

"Does everyone where you come from dress like that?" she asked.

"No," Link said. "Just the Kokiri do."

(A/N: Everyone is this village wear clothes like people in an old African village would wear. Sorry I suck at descriptions!)

"Aeris!"

Aeris stopped and turned around to see a young man run towards her.

"What is it Kalataki?" she asked.

"He has taken a new victim!" Kalataki said.

"Who is 'he'?" Link asked.

"The king of Burmecia," Aeris explained. "He's a very evil man. He kidnaps villagers and takes them as slaves for himself."

"This time he did not take a villager!" Kalataki said.

"Who did he take?" Aeris asked.

"I do not know," he said. "She had golden hair, light colored skin, and was wearing blue!"

"Zelda!" Link gasped.

"He must have taken her to be his queen," Aeris said.

"Where is this king?!" Link asked. "I have to save Zelda!"

"There is nothing you can do," Aeris said. "He is very powerful. He knows how to use black magic."

"I know magic too," Link said and pointed to his hand. "My magic is probably a lot stronger than his."

Aeris looked at the golden triangle on Link's hand and nodded.

"Kalataki, get Link weapons," she said. "Link, you must still visit the elder while Kalataki brings you your weapons."

"Aeris, what if he finds out?" Kalataki asked.

"I do not care!" she said. "For too long has he been ruling here and taking our friends! Did you not hear the legends? Legend tells of two people who will come to Burmecia and save us from the evil king. None of us know magic, but Link does!"

"As you wish, Aeris," Kalataki said and left to get Link weapons.

Aeris sighed and continued leading Link to the elder's house.

Aeris knocked on the elder's door.

"Come in,"

Aeris and Link walked into the house and saw an old elven man sitting down on a mat.

"Who might you be?" the elder asked.

"Sir, this is the man that legend speaks of!" Aeris said. "See? He is different is appearance and he knows magic. Look at his hand!"

The elder reached out for Link's hand and nodded.

"You have a piece of the Triforce?" he asked.

"Yes, how did you know?" Link asked.

"I am an Oracle," the elder said. "I am all knowing."

"Sir, do you wish for me to leave?" Aeris asked.

"No need," the Oracle said.

"Sir, I need to know how to save Zelda and how to get back to Hyrule," Link said.

"Princess Zelda is being held in a castle north from here," the Oracle explained. "He has many servants and beasts guarding the castle. It will not be easy to get Zelda back for he has already cast a spell on her."

"What kind of spell?" Link asked.

"A spell to make her love him," the Oracle answered. "Zelda will not know you when you see her unless she truly loves you and wants to be with you. Does Zelda love you?"

"I don't know, sir," Link answered with a sigh.

"I believe she does," the Oracle said with a smile. "Now, the king is very powerful, but with the Triforce of Courage, I am sure you can defeat him."

"How do I get back to Hyrule once I rescue Zelda?" Link asked.

"Hyrule is south from here," the Oracle said. He clapped his hands together a large map appeared in front of Link and Aeris. "You have to travel south from here. You will find a land of fairies. They are friendly, but very timid. Keep going south and you will find Hyrule."

"Ganondorf sent us three worlds apart...." Link sighed.

"Yes," the Oracle said. "And I must tell you, the Sages are not dead."

"They're not?" Link asked.

"They pretended to be dead," the Oracle answered.

"That's a relief," Link sighed.

A knock then came to the door.

"Come in," the Oracle said.

Kalataki walked in with a sword, shield, bow, and a quiver of arrows.

"Here are your weapons," he said.

"Thank you," Link said and took the weapons.

"You must hurry," the Oracle said. "You do not have much time. Aeris, I want you to go with Link. You are very skilled in fighting are you not?"

"Yes," she said. "I shall gather my weapons."

Aeris bowed and left.

"Good luck, Link," the Oracle said.

"Thank you," Link said and followed Aeris back to her house.

Author's Note: Sorry this chapter was short. The next one will be much longer!
