Trembling Fear

Disclaimer: I don't own Zelda. But I do own: Aaron, Nohan, Saori, Lunard, Karina, Shara, Relin, Servant of Ganon, and everyone else!

Can't say I've ever tried a taco… Whoops, sorry, well. Seems to me that now is the time to… Update! But I have updated recently but I most dearly want to so Freelancer can have more to read… HAHAHA!

"I had long since served my duty for Ganondorf. I had done as he told me to do, but I do not follow him. I yet follow the ruler of Hyrule whom are dead. So now I follow their heirs. I follow your children, my King." The Servant of Ganon said, getting to his knees and bowing is head low in front of the King of Hyrule. The King of Hyrule touched the Servant of Ganon's head and pulled on his shoulder to bring him to his feet.

"You do not need to follow no one. For all, protect my heirs. They are dear to me, and they will be to you once they become wed and carry new heirs." The King of Hyrule said, deeply. "But for now, follow your lord, Ganondorf. I shall not harm the if you do so. Follow your lord and soon your next task will to come…"

Later on in the years… (I haven't decided how many)

Bits of crumbled stone shattered to the ground as he wiggled his arm free of the Time Wielder's hold. Zelda staring in disbelief as the stone crumbled off of him. Soon his entire top part of his body was free, he shook his head, bits of crumbled stone falling out of his head, and then he moved his legs to break free. The stone broke away easily and he tumbled out, numb from hibernation he fell to the ground, wheezing. Zelda stared for a long time, not knowing what to do, but soon she cautiously stepped up to him.

"You… You're the Servant of Ganondorf." Zelda said, looking at him. The man nodded slightly and started to get up, making Zelda jump back.

He was back up on his feet, which his head bowed down, and his eyes staring at the ground. "I have yet returned, Princess Zelda." He said, bowing lowly to her.

Zelda stared at him for several seconds, him still bowing lowly to her. "Why do you bow before me? Shouldn't you to Ganondorf?" she asked, taking a step towards him.

He didn't retreat from his posture as Zelda had predicted he would. "Because I have never served Ganondorf. For long I have served the King of Hyrule. He had instructed me to do as Ganondorf wished, milady. But now, my debt is paid, and now the heir to his heir is about to be born." He finished, finally looking up at her. "Son of the Descendant of Ganondorf, and son of the Princess Zelda. Is that not what you carry?" he asked.

Zelda took a step back, her hand covering her mouth in shock. "How did you know?" she asked.

He straightened up and looked at her, his face showing in the light, dark crescents under his eyes. "Who else wouldn't have known? Though I have been sealed away by the Mastir Sword into hibernation, I still yet know when it is soon time to leave. The time when you carry a new life in side you with the son of Ganondorf as it's father. Relin. The one who is said to carry the last piece. It says so in the ancient hyrulian language written upon the walls of the Desert Colossus. I am one of those who can read the language, and the dead spirits who wonder this cavern." He explained. "My name is Adia. Maybe for long since I have been know as many names, but this is my true one that I lend to you for your keeping." He said.

Zelda stared at him in puzzlement. "What do you mean?"

"Adia. That is my name, but I do not wish to be called as such. I wish it taken away from me and be named what your father has always called me: Servant of Ganondorf. But now I have reached my next task that the Goddess have put upon me." He replied. "I will guide you to the birth place, milady."

"What? What do you mean 'birth place'?" Zelda asked.

"I'm sorry, milady. My tongue is still fit with the ancient Hyrulian talk. I will take you to the place Relin is to be born at. Though it does not seem yet the time to give birth. Now is the time, from the power your son carries, you were able to pull the Mastir Sword out of me and bring me back here. And your son is still yet strong enough to seal Ganondorf away back into the Dark Void that he has always feared to return to." Adia said, motioning around the cavern. "Now come. But take the Mastir Sword with you. Son of Ganondorf will have to use it, you are yet due." He explained, and headed towards the corridor that led to the room with the stone.

Zelda raised an eyebrow, everything this Adia person said made no sense at all. Though he had said that he was still fit with the ancient Hyrulian talk he would try his best to make her understand. But that was still pretty difficult. She turned around and grabbed the Master Sword from the ground, following Adia as he reached the room with the sword.

Aaron would of never suspected to see someone lying on the ground, stiff, and looking as if dead on the ground near the drawbridge to Hyrule. But as he neared closer, he wished he hadn't. Nabooru lay on the ground, her scimitar faint in her hand upon the ground with her. "Mother!" Aaron shouted, quickly dismounting from the horse and rushing to her side. Her face was to the ground and no injuries were seen on the back. Aaron checked her neck for any motion that she was still alive. Nothing came, no beat of her heart giving him reassurance. Aaron gently flipped her over checking Nabooru's wounds. Four giant gashes appeared upon her when she lay face up. Two gashes upon her face and the blood no longer seeping out.

"It was necessary, Aaron…" a soft voice said. Aaron looked up at the drawbridge, Karina stood not to far away from him, looking down at him. Though she didn't look normal because there was no sign of her brown pupil in her eyes. "It was a necessary death." She said again.

Aaron stood up and glared at Karina. "It was not necessary! She shouldn't have died!" he spat, holding back his tears.

Karina fluttered a bit as she stood, her voice lowering as she spoke. "She was stupid to try and save Lunard and Shara, they are yet already dead with Majora chasing them. And you don't have a chance to live either, with one task already done. The world will soon cower from the darkness of Lord Ganon's Wrath!" Karina shouted.

Aaron gritted his teeth, so Karina had returned to Ganondorf's side once again. "I always knew you weren't trustworthy, Karina." He said, using her name to make her stiffen and flutter a little. "You want your own children dead! Lunard and Shara our your offspring as well! Where is Link?" Aaron demanded.

Karina faltered. "Another task was completed just a moment ago. The death of Ganon's enemy, the death of… Link…." Karina spoke, her voice faltering again. Aaron's eyes widened, Link… dead? It couldn't of been true! Not Link, the Hero of Time! Aaron gritted his teeth again and looked at the ground in disgust. But unfortunately he didn't see Karina's eyes slowly dilate back to show her brown pupil. "But there are still tasks that aren't completed yet. So Ganon's wrath has not started." She said, her voice hard and crisp. Aaron looked up at her, startled. Karina smiled and closed her eyes. "Trembling Fear of a Dark Void… Call upon my name and I shant return. The second verse has been completed. Let us finish the rest." Karina said, snapping her eyes open and running out into the field, grabbing Aaron's arm for him to follow.

"Needless to say… I'm surprised we aren't dead yet!" Lunard shouted, his voice echoing through the small hut that Shara and Lunard made their way to through the Haunted Wasteland.

"Will you be quiet?" Shara screamed, turning around to glare at Lunard. "I need to remember what else we have to do to get to the Desert Colossus."

"Sisters…" Lunard murmured, crossing his arms at his chest.

"Now I remember!" Shara shouted, snatching up a robe on the ground and throwing it over her cloths.

Lunard watched as she put the huge hood on and headed towards the exit. "Where are you going?" he asked, but Shara had already left. "Humf." He murmured and snatched up a robe of his own.

"I knew that when I came out of the stone, I would have to get on with my next task, though I didn't know what that next task would be fully." Adia explained, helping Zelda down to the bottom of the small cliff. "So I just did what I was told and followed Ganondorf, he instructed me to refurbish the Mastir Sword, so I did, again, as I was told. I took the sword and did exactly as he told me to. I went off to try and kill Link. None of you knew what I was going to do. But instead of killing Link, I failed when I was mixed up between Link's son and himself. So I attacked Link's son instead. But he got the best of me and took the sword out of my hands and put it into me." He continued, jumping over a cliff and helping Zelda over it. "So I was turned into stone by the Mastir Sword. Though before this all happened, the time when I returned to Ganondorf. I was at the Desert Colossus, which is the only place where I could contact Ganondorf. While I was there I read the inscriptions that said the thing that you might of read off that stone in the cave. There simple verses that one has to follow if Ganondorf is to return a third time." He continued.

Zelda nodded, understanding a little bit more as he carried on. "So I remembered what it so said and went to the top of Death Mountain to where me and Lunard would finally fight it out and he would defeat me. Though he completely ignored the stone when he entered the cave. I was hoping he would read it, but then again I didn't know if Ganondorf would return a third time. I used the Mastir Sword to write the inscription upon the stone and knew that someone would come upon my resting place and read it because they were curious. Then you came a long, read it, and continued onto the cavern where the Mastir Sword and me were. You pulled the Mastir Sword out of the stone that was me and I broke free because my time was coming to help bring the verses to life. So… here I am." Adia finished, stopping near the gate that led them to Kakariko.

Zelda nodded when he finished. "So the verses that were written on the stone have to come to life? How?" she asked.

"The first verse, Trembling Fear of a Dark Void… it describes Ganondorf. He fears a Dark Void, so he trembles from it, so technically that has already been completed. Now the second verse, Call upon my name and I shant return. It means to call upon someone's name and they shall return from Ganondorf's grasp. That might of already been completed and we might even know it. The third verse, Call upon the darkness fear lying deep… I'm not quite sure what that refers to, but I think it has something to do with someone's deep fear inside them, but they don't tell anyone what their afraid of." Adia explained, forcing open the gate and letting Zelda walk through it.

"So we have two verses done. The third one were not sure of and after the third one we still have three more to go." Zelda said, finally understanding the concept of the sort of riddle.

"Exactly." Adia said, closing the gates behind him. "Though I'm sure the last verse refers to your child being born. I'm not entirely sure. Do you know anyone that might have a great fear?" he asked Zelda, turning to her to look at her back.

Zelda stared off at the dark sky. "Yes… indeed I do. Nohan does. Then again, I think he does. He always acts weird, and strange when Karina, Link, or Lunard come to visit. He defiantly fears something, I'm sure of it." she said, her voice wavering a bit.

Adia looked up at the dark sky as well, then he looked at Zelda. "I don't think its Nohan who fears something, milady. I think it is you. Trembling Fear." He said, Zelda trembling a little as she looked at the sky and she looked at him. "You do…."
