The tentacles tightening up Inu Yasha, Kagome, Sango, and Miroku freed them as they were weakened. They ran to help Link, who was lying on the ground.
"Link! Wake up! LINK!" Inu Yasha yelled as he tried making Link open his eyes.
"Link! Open your eyes!" Kagome shouted as well.
Miroku and Sango looked sad as well, as Shippo was about to draw one tear. Was that final battle costing Link's life? Was that power taking away all his power?
Everyone became sad.
Just then, a blinding light appeared. Inu Yasha, Kagome, Sango, Miroku, and Shippo all covered their eyes. They saw a long, blonde haired female.
"Huh…? Who are you?" Kagome asked as the female approached Link.
"I… am Princess Zelda… I came to here to see Link…"
She crouched and saw Link.
"Link…" Zelda whispered as Link began waking up.
"Prin…princess… Zelda…" Link moaned as he opened his eyes. He still looked very weak.
"Link… we have lost many… our home… family… we lost them…" Zelda whispered as Link had tears coming out.
"I know… I couldn't save them… and not even you… Zelda…" Link sniffed as tears came out.
"Don't ever cry… Hope still remains…"
She lended him her hand to Link's left.
"We both possess the power of the Triforce, Link… with this, we can make our wishes come true after all…" Zelda explained.
Link didn't respond, but nodded in saying he will do it.
The hands glew and light shone. Triforce glew and as they did, all the good people of Hyrule, and this era, revived. No bad demons ever were revived.
"We… did it… Zelda…" Link sighed as he breathed.
"Now relax, Link… close your eyes…"
She gave him a hug and Link started getting healed. Link felt much better.
"Princess Zelda… thank you.." Link said.
Princess Zelda simply smiled.
"Well Link, shall we go home?" Zelda suggested, and Link answered with a yes, but with hesitation. He saw his new friends looking rather sad, except Inu Yasha, who stared at him as if he made a wrong decision.
Zelda looked at him.
"Link, you wish to be with your friends, don't you?" Zelda laughed as Link rubbed the back of his neck as everybody chuckled.
"Please come back in a weak or so… you must come back." Zelda requested.
Link nodded, "Really? Thank you so much!" and she teleported back to Hyrule.
"Everybody… it's over." Link smiled and everybody else smiled back at him.
Link and the others were on a peaceful hill. Miroku and Sango did make strange looks at each other sometimes.
Link, Kagome, and Shippo thought they should do something with them, while Inu Yasha, who didn't even care, didn't think about the two.
While they were still walking, however, Miroku put his hand on Sango's butt. AGAIN.
(Anime style: Sango's face has those "pissed off" marks on her head)
She smacked him hard on the head and made Miroku fall down.
Link yelped.
After a few moments Sango forgive Miroku (hey, she does that all the time), they looked even weirder looks and blushed.
"Do you think we should help them?" Link whispered as quiet as he could to Kagome.
"Definitely. We can't have them fighting the feelings they have for each other." Kagome whispered back and Link nodded.
"Why do you two care about that so much?" Inu Yasha questioned, irritated.
"Aw come on, 'Yasha. I mean it can't be that bad." Link replied as he closed his eyes and sighed.
Inu Yasha sniffed and faced away, showing no concern. Oh well. We can't change that, can we?
While they were whispering, they noticed Sango and Miroku were down a hill.
Inu Yasha, Link, Kagome, and Shippo looked down and saw what was going on. They couldn't hear what they were saying from the distance, but they did see Miroku putting his one hand Sango's, which was on the ground.
"Things seem to be going quite well so far…" Kagome whispered to Link and Shippo as they nodded and watched.
Just then, Miroku's hand was an inch away from Sango's butt, but he changed his mind so he wouldn't get smacked again and continued saying his… charming stuff. Sango put one hand on one cheek and blushed.
"Please don't make him touch her butt…" Kagome, Link, and Shippo prayed rather silently, but gracefully.
Miroku's hand was an inch away, but he decided not to this time. Just then, Link turned around. There was a village, and maybe, just maybe, Miroku and Sango can have some good time there… HEE HEE..
All the Shadows infected by Shadow Link were healed back to their normal selves. And the demons? They were all sent to the world of the damned, thanks to Zelda's and Link's powers from their Tri Force.
Miroku and Sango rather blushed every time they looked at each other. They then turned away to different directions.
"Okay… let's let them stay in the same room for today…" Link whispered quietly to Kagome.
"Link…!" She scolded silently.
"Sorry…"
But still, it would have been a good idea. They would at least share their feelings while they were inside.
"Well, better find some place to stay." Link yawned as he stretched.
"Yeah. I'm kind of tired, too." Sango muttered, but shyly.
"Um… yeah! It's a good idea…!" Miroku stuttered as well being shy.
The village had an inn. And it was great! Each took three rooms; One for Link himself, one for Shippo, Kagome and Inu Yasha, and the third? Miroku and Sango.
"Well, let's see how this goes…" Kagome whispered to herself.
Link was taking a little rest as he sat and leaned on the wall. He closed his eyes and meditated. He took some breaths as well.
Meanwhile, in Miroku's and Sango's room, they tried not to look at each other. But as they looked at each other in the eyes. They could NOT take any longer. They were getting closer… and closer… and… EEP!
Kagome saw that. She decided not to look at it. She backed away and went back to her room.
I better not tell anyone what I saw… or I'm doomed… She thought as she shook.
As soon as Link got up and went out of his room, he decided to go for some exploring. He stretched and had a good look around a river. It flowed beautifully. Link took a few liters on his both hands and took a sip. As soon as Link took the sip, he wiped his mouth and continued his exploring.
When I was here… there was nothing this peaceful… Father… mother… I hope you're proud of me… and you, grandpa and grandma… I'll see you soon, gramps… Link thought as he looked up at the sky. He walked around and while he was, a person similar appeared.
"Priestess…? I'm glad you're alive…" Link greeted politely.
"Thank you… My job is now finished… It's all thanks to you, Link." Kikyo thanked with a smile and Link rubbed the back of his neck.
Link giggled silently.
"Thanks all the same…"
Kikyo nodded and walked past the Hylian. Link saw her walk away.
"Link… please… just do me one favor…" She requested as Link listened carefully.
"…Don't try to convince Inu Yasha to be with me… again…"
Link didn't want to argue, so he nodded slowly, and Kikyo smiled at him. Was it just that Kikyo thought Inu Yasha was better with Kagome?
Link shrugged. Maybe he shouldn't. After all, it might just piss Kikyo off.
"Link…! Link!" Kagome called as she ran.
"Huh? What's up, Kagome?" Link asked as he looked up.
"It's Miroku and Sango… they're actually…"
"What? What is it? Writing love letters? Fighting? Miroku touched Sango's…"
"NO! They're lips joined!"
Link jumped.
"WHAT? Are you serious?"
Kagome nodded as if she was also freaked out as Link twitched his eyes. He couldn't believe what Kagome just said.
A few days later, the two really found out they were deeply in love… and decided to get married… they had a wedding and for their celebration, Link, Kagome, Inu Yasha, and Shippo all cheered. Of course, things were to get better after this…
A week passed. Link had to go back home, even if he wished not to. He sighed and looked at his friends.
"I can't believe it's over…" Kagome said sadly.
Link put his hand on her shoulder.
"Over? This journey is… but not our friendship, right?" Link cheered the young teenager up.
Kagome's smile came out after those words.
"Kagome? You've been an inspiration for me. It's sad we must go apart… but I won't forget you!" Link said as Kagome replied, "Link… thank you…"
Then he turned to Inu Yasha and shook hands with him.
"Inu Yasha? You are the strongest warrior I've seen so far… and you helped me sometimes. And protect Kagome and the others…" Link asked him politely.
Then he went to Miroku and Sango.
"Miroku? Sango? You two must be happy now. The two of you will live the most happily as I'm sure. And it was great having this adventure with you two." Link complimented as Miroku and Sango looked at each other lovingly.
Then he lastly went to Shippo.
"Shippo? You became a warrior at this young age… Be proud of yourself, as I couldn't have been stronger than you if I were your age." Link said with a smile.
"Wow… thanks Link!" Shippo exclaimed.
Then Link saw his hand, or Tri force mark, make a portal. It must have lead to Hyrule, and Zelda opened it up for him.
"Well everyone… farewell…"
Link smiled and looked at his new friends one last time.
"Good bye, Link! We'll miss you!" Everyone cheered.
And the Hylian got in.
As Link went in, he was back at the Hyrule Castle. He walked back to the castle. And saw Zelda.
"Link… I'm proud of you…" Zelda muttered as she smiled at him and he blushed.
And yet, Link had finished another difficult quest. But a great journey was about to come…
THE END…
Or is it…?
The place where Shadow Link laid… dark energies gathered his corpse and he revived.
"…! That vermin has beaten me…! I must recover… in the Dark Era… until then, Link… consider yourself lucky… I will be back someday…!"
The revived villain then disappeared and was gone to an unknown location…
THE END…?
