Chapter Six: The Triforces United/Farewell
Daybreak came, and with that, the trio had to leave to get home. They got their stuff packed and leaded in Tiger's truck (which, unfortunately, had to had its' modifications removed). Before they left though, they were told to meet at the Temple of Time, which is where they entered, truck and all.
"That's the first time I was ever allowed to drive inside a building..." Tiger said. It didn't go over too well with the others who were there.
Zelda lead the three to the podium where the three Spiritual Stones were kept. Each one stood infront of their respective stone, Tiger in front of the Kokiri Emerald, Mitchell in front of the Goron's Ruby, and April in front of the Zora's Sapphire. Their Triforces glowed brightly, as did the Stones. That's when Zelda spoke.
"I was asked to give to you magic so you could effectively fulfill destiny in your own time." Zelda said. "If you wish to back out, you may do so, but you will lose your Triforce, and the power will be given to someone else. Make your decision carefully."
Mitchell and April looked at each other, and stepped back. Mitchell then said, "I'm sorry, but we don't want any more part of this. It's a little bit too wierd for my blood. Let's go Tweaker."
"Wait..." Tiger said, looking at the two. "You two have a responsibility to uphold, I mean, what you two have with each other should be a good enough reason to take this task head on..."
Tiger paused, then looked down, then back up to them.
"But I understand why you two wouldn't want to risk losing each other. I can honestly say you two will make a damn good couple..." He looked to Zelda, then to Link. "I wish I could feel how it felt to hold someone in my arms, the taste of a kiss, the feeling only true love could emminate. But it seems destiny has other plans for me..."
The Triforce on his hand began to glow brighter as Mitchell's and April's dimmed. Tiger stepped forward and held his hand up. "Zelda, I wish to take over their positions and take over as the True Hero in my time."
With that, Zelda nodded, and the Triforces disappeared from Mitchell and April. The full Triforce appeared on Tiger's hand as he glowed brightly. When it stopped, he seemed no different, but in his eyes burned a flame only found in those of true warriors, such as Link.
That was the end of the matter, Tiger was now the True Hero of his time...
The three piled into the truck as Link played the Song of Time infront of the door. A ramp of light formed as the Door opened. Link, Zelda, and Impa gathered at the windows.
"Are you sure you don't want to stay a little while longer?" Link asked.
"I apologize," Mitchell said, "but we need to get home."
"Hey, Impa!" Tiger yelled as she made her way to his window.
"Yes?" Impa said.
"Take care of the two love-birds."
Impa laughed. "You do the same with your friends."
The three moved out of the way as the trio drove up the ramp and through the door, and, like they had done before, drove through time back into the future, out of the sink-hole and onto the road right by the country club where the prom was going on. The only difference was, it was right when Ganondorf was supposed to attack, which he didn't. Instead the lights dimmed due to the electric going out. The three looked at each other, and drove over.
One of the teachers asked, "Where were you, we were worried sick!"
Tiger responded, "Oh, we had quite a timely experience." The other two laughed, the teacher giving them a WTF? look.
Prom was over, Tiger drove April and Mitchell home, and went to his house. He undressed, fell face first on his couch, and passed out. It was so good to be home...
Epilogue: WARNING, POSSIBLE SPOILERS AHEAD!
Oh Hell, what am I talking about? Just read on...
First off, I'd like to apologise for the final couple of chapters being shorter than the first few. I couldn't go into any more detail at the time, so if you don't like it, I'll try to do better next time.
As many of you probably either know or speculate, Zelda and Link end up getting married, yadda-yadda, you get the picture. Impa ends up attending them, and when the King dies, they become Queen and King of Hyrule. Ganondorf escapes after they die, and thus goes into Wind Waker (depending on which storyline/fanfic/game timeline you pay attention to.) Buzzkill...
Mitchell and April end up going rock-steady even after high-school graduation. They don't get married, though, they planned to get married after college, which was fine by them. They still keep in touch with Tiger, and speak of it only amongst themselves, and to no one else (except Tiger's mom, whom got a huge kick out of it, until he showed her the Triforce. After an exorcism attempt, she realized Tiger wasn't lying...or possessed..., and accepted it.)
Speaking of Tiger, he sometimes looked up at the moon, and thinks to himself, ' I wonder if I'll ever find love of my own.' Maybe destiny has something in store in the future, maybe not. One thing is for sure though, he contenued to keep true to his destiny, and never stopped. That's just the way the cookie crumbles...
