Chapter 2
Duel with a ghoul
Link finally made it to the infamous Mt. Wisp. As he wandered through the mist he kept hearing strange noises. "Whhoo dares to wannder intooo this place." a thin, raspy voice.
"Hey, wh….who's th th there" Link gulped.
"Alll those whhoo passs through musst beee destroyed. HA! HA!"
Suddenly thin wispy figures began to form until they took the shape of a human figure. They glowed an eerie blue color. They all wore robes with hoods that covered their eyes.
"Who or what are you?" Link asked in a shaky voice.
"We are the spiritsss of the people whhoo tried passsing through these woodss." one of the figures said. "Now you will join uss!"
And with that the figures drew their weapons, which looked like swords. Link mustered all the bravery that he had left and drew his sword, accepting the duel. Link was the first to lunge, sloppy move. Link swung his mighty sword but struck nothing, he had passed through the formless figure. However, the spirit's sword did affect Link because when he looked he had a big slice in his right arm. Then the spirit struck again this time in the left leg, sending Link staggering against a tree.
Then just as the spirit was about to strike the deathblow it reeled in pain. As it fell to the ground Link saw a glowing arrow stuck in its back. Then one by one the spirits began falling and evaporating into nothing. "Well it's a good thing I showed up when I did." came a voice from behind the bushes. Then the figure of a girl appeared and came toward him. "You're going to be alright." she said.
Then Link went unconscious. When he woke up in an old shack he saw the Elvin girl caring for him. She was about 5' 5" and had blond hair down to her lower back. She was wearing some pretty raggedy clothes that looked a little too small. Her deep blue eyes seemed to calm Link down just by looking at them.
"Hey, thanks for helping me back there." Link said weakly.
"Oh, you're finally awake. You've been out for almost all day." said the girl. " My name's Zelda, what's yours."
"Oh, my name's Link." he said forgetting that he never introduced himself.
"I don't get it, how did you kill those ghost things? When I attacked I just passed through them!" Link asked confused.
"Well I have my little fairy friend ,Rito, enchant them so they will effect them. That is why I can live here in peace and not get attacked." she explained. "Now hold still, I'm going to put some medicine on your wounds. It'll probably burn for a while so get ready." she warned.
"Err, that does burn!" but as he looked at his wounds they began to disappear. "Hey this stuff is pretty good."
"I'll stay with you until you leave the mountain." she told him.
