Chapter 4: The start of Link's quest enter into the light temple
" Fairy boy!" A voice rang out. Link smiled as he walked through the gates of Lonlon ranch and looked at Malon whom the voice belonged to.
" You know you can't call me that anymore Malon, Navi left remember." He said sadly but then as quickly as his sadness appeared it vanished. Looking at Malon he spoke.
" A girl came here with Epona where is she?" He asked. Malon pointed to the corral where sure enough Syrina was playing a strange flute. Running up to her Link cleared his throat.
" Umm Syrina?" He asked. The young girl jumped and whirled drawing her sword.
" Whoa watch it!" Link yelled as he dodged. Syrina blushed a little bit realizing what she just did.
" Sorry Link I do that when I get frightened." She said. Link laughed.
" Yeah me too, but listen, I need to tell you something." He said. Syrina looked at him with a small look of couriosity.
" Well what is it?" She asked. Link filled her in on what he had learned. Syrina's gaze darkened.
" That can't be true!" She yelled. Link opened his mouth to reply when he heard the firmilar swooshing which ment Shiek had come. Looking over his shoulder Link smiled at his friend as the young warrior walked forward. Once he neared the two heroes he spoke.
" When the force of darkness arises not only will the king arise but so will a powerful advastary to the king. This is yet another legend that my people the Sheikahs have passed down through generations, and the legend reffers to the foe that Link fought over three years ago, his name was Ganondorf, he and the evil king fought long and hard but in the end Link had won, or so it had seemed, that was until Ganondorf tried to crush Link and the princess Zelda underneath the rubble of his castle,however Link and Zelda escaped safely. Then suddenly something happened although Ganondorf was buried underneath a small pile of debry the Triforce of Power which he held in his hand was transforming him. This was the birth of the real king of evil Ganon. Link had lost his Master Sword when Ganon swung his sword at it, knocking it behind the wall of fire that surrounded the two fighters Link thought it was all over. But using his Megaton Hammer, that he had used to defeat the subbterrain lava dragon Volvagia, Link manged to knock Ganon to his knees, giving himself time to reterive his Master Sword. With the scared evil destroying sword he was able to bring Ganon to his knees once again, this time however Zelda had stepped in and using her magical ability froze the evil king in his place. Link, the mighty hero of Time used his mighty sword to destroy the mighty king, and using the power of the sages, Zelda was able to seal the evil king in the void between the dark and light worlds, my people however call the worlds the Ying world and the Yang world. But because Ganon had his Triforce of Power he didn't give into the void and in doing so started regaining his strength. And for three long years Hyrule was at peace, but that is the price we pay for getting cocky, for now Ganon has returned and is hunting down the six sages, he has already killed two, fire and light..." Sheik was suddenly interrupted by Link.
" Make that four Ganon has just killed Impa and Ruto." Link said holding up the two dim medallions of water and shadow. Shiek sighed shaking his head.
" Keep this up Link and you'll have to start from the beginning you must awaken six new sages start with the light." He said. Link looked at him with a look of anger in his eyes.
" But I don't know how to get to the light temple Shiek, if you remeber correctly Rauru was already awakened the moment I pulled the sword, he was there when I woke up after a seven long year nap, which come to think of it only felt like two seconds!" The young hero yelled. Shiek held up his hand.
" I know that Rauru was already awakened from the light temple as soon as the Master Sword was drawn and now it is time to teach you a final song. In order to get to the high heveans you need the help of the three that watch over the world, so in order to reach and exit the light temple you must play this song, follow along with me as I play the Wings of the Goddesses!" Shiek yelled as he pulled out his harp and played a soft tune, that sounded almost like a mix between the Song of Time and the Prelude of Light. Link pulled out his Orcrina and followed along. Soon lights appeared around Link and then disappeared.
" You will need to play this song at the pedestal that the Master Sword rested in then you will be transported into the dungeon of the Light temple, the temple gaurdian is at the topmost level, which is an open battle ground. A word of advice before you go, take the golden gauntlents, the Len's of Truth, the Megaton hammer, your bow and a quiver full of all the arrows, normal, fire, light, and ice, also your longshot and finally take your three magic crystals, Din's fire, Farore's wind, and Naru's Love. You'll need them." Sheik said. Link nodded and ran out of the ranch as Sheik stayed to talk with Syrina. Once he was outside Link felt a funny sensation in his heart. Pulling out his medallions, Link watched as his Forest one was dimmed.
' NO, Saria! ' Link thought in anger. He shook his head realizing he must keep his cool. So placing his medallions back in his pouch he ran off into the market town, without stoping to talk to anyone he hurried into the Temple of Time, running through the now open door of Time, Link stood at the pedestal and took out his Orcrina, then playing the Wings of the Goddesses, Link watched as three lights, orange, blue, and green appeared around him forming a ghostly image of the Triforce, the full Triforce mind you. Then the Triforce flew up through Link's body and the lights became the images of Din, Farore, and Naru. Then the goddesses rose their arms and a blue crystal surrounded Link and rose him into the air.
When Link opened his eyes, he saw he was in the light temple's dungeon. So running to the door he opened it and walked up the stairs to the first floor of the temple, the next floor was just a round floor with an moving platform. So taking a step back towards the door he ran and jumped. Link rolled as he landed on the moving platform that took him across a bottomless pit. Suddenly he heard the flapping of bat wings so drawing his bow he readied an arrow and once he saw the bat that was flying at him he shot it taking it down. Suddenly he saw his destenation so he quickly jumped towards the floor and rolled again as he made it across. Standing up Link saw a huge black pillar standing infront of him. Luckly he had gone to the castle to obtain the items that Sheik had told him to bring so he was wearing the golden gauntlets, so reaching down Link grabbed the endge of the pillar and with a grunt picked it up and tossed it into the bottomless pit behind him. Openeing the door that was now infront of him Link walked into a room that was bathed in light. As soon as he was inside the door it closed and bars appeared infront of it, hearing a grunt was all Link needed. Drawing his sword and shield Link prepared to battle the Stalfos that appeared infront of him. After cutting the skeleton down to size Link saw the door across the room open up. Running over to it Link opened the door and walked up more stairs. The next floor had a gap full of lava, and there was no platform, Link looked on the otherside of the room and saw a target on the wall, so getting out his Longshot he shot at the wall and was pulled across, then turning the corner Link saw metal grates over fire pits, as he took a step he saw a pillar appear infront of him and with it went the other four.
' Well this may take a while.' Lin thought and it did take awhile for as he ran he only got across one of the grates before they were set off but he did make it past only find another door. So opening it he climb yet another flight of stairs only this time he was in a dark room.
" Din's...Fire!" Link yelled as he threw his hand to the ground and realsed a dome of fire, the fire lit the torches that were in the four corners of the room to reveal and platform moving up, Link stepped on it and was taking into and huge room full of metal spikes on the walls and floor and the roof was falling.
" Perfect." Link said alound as he ran across the platform until he heard the roof fall, preparing for the worst Link threw his hands across his face and closed his eyes that's when he heard the crash. Opening his eyes slightly Link saw that like the forest temple this roof had holes in it. As the roof started rising, Link took off for the door. After a whole lot of the roof falling, Link made it to the door. Opening it up Link walked up yet another flight of stairs. Next Link saw a huge room with a strange glowing platform. Taking a step into the room Link heard a scream as a Redead appeared. Powering up his sword Link released a torrent of orange light killing the Redead then he heard three grunts, meaning that three Stalfos were wanting to fight. Link desposed of them easily and took a step onto the glowing platform, the next room held a big gold chest. Opening it up Link pulled out the Boss's Key. Then he stepped through the door and into a hall, running through it and dodging the fire balls and spikes that came at him Link saw a huge door with a chain and a skull shaped lock on it. Using his Boss Key Link opened the door and walked inside were another glowing platform waited. Once he stepped on it he was transported to the topmost floor but the was a huge gap between him and the battlefield to far to jump and not a target for him to hookshot over. So using his Len's of Truth Link saw floating platforms but in between them were swinging axes.
' I knew there had to be a catch. ' He thought as he jumped onto the first platform, suddenly the platform started shaking so taking a chance Link jumped and made it to the next platform. There was just one more to go so jumping through the gap as the axe swung by Link made it, then jumping down to the final floor Link waited were sure enough Eatos flew up from around the temple. The battle had begun. Link had a feeling that Eatos would be like Volvaiga so he waited when suddenly the dragon's mouth opened and Link was suddenly shocked with over four volts of electricity.
' No! ' Link thought as he feel to his knees then he saw the dragon's weakness as it got ready to attack again. The dragon's chest was open not just with no defence but it also opened up the plate around it's heart so drawing back an arrow he struck the heart. Eatos roared in pain as he fell paralized. Link laughed and pulled out his sword and slashed at Eatos. After a few swings Eatos got back up. When the dragon attacked again Link saw his heart was surronded by a black cloud so preparing at light arrow Link shot at the heart and sure enough Eatos fell. Link followed through with a couple of swings of his sword. Eatos got back up and tryed to attack again this time his heart was in a cucoon so firing a fire arrow Eatos fell and Link slashed again and again. Eatos got up and attacked one more time but this times his heartbeat was slower and his heart was covered in fire so shooting a ice arrow cause Eatos to fall this time however when Link slashed at the dragon it roared in pain and thunder bolts were produced from his body as it died. Then in a flash of light Link saw another person standing where the dragon lay moments ago so drawing his sword again Link readied for battle the figure laughed.
" No need for that dear hero, I am Quinn the new sage of light. and as thanks for freeing me from this creature I will revive the light medallion!" Quinn yelled as she rose her hands and the Light Medaillon glew from inside the pouch. Without saying a word Link pulled out his Orcrina and played the Wings of the Goddesses and exited the temple.
' One back five more to free. ' Link thought as he headed to Death Mountain.
