Chap 2
Link smirked as he started at Gannondorf, waiting for him to make the next move. The whole room was silent. For the first time in recorded history, The Grand Hall was quiet. Gannondorf charged his sword with power and struck it to the ground. A wave of energy shot forth at Link. He countered the attack with a simple swing and laughed. "My turn." Link said with a smile that seemed to send chills down Zelda's spine. With a flash of light Link shot across the room and impaled his sword through Gannondorf's torso. As the two mortal enemies stared at each other, With the life fading in Gannondorf's eyes a dark smirk grew upon on Link's face. Link reached up with his left hand and touched it to Gannondorf's hand. The triforce symbol began to shine and pulsate. Then in another bright flash the triforce of power shone on Link's hand. Link then leapt in to the air, splitting Gannondorf in to half. Dark energy began to crackle around the body of the once great king of evil. As link landed the now lifeless corpse disappeared in a explosion of dark energy. Link resheathed his sword. He then knelt down and picked up the head jewel of Gannondorf. The only remaining element that the Guerdo king ever lived. "Dusk, come here." the wolf companion that had accompanied Link in his dramatic entrance walked over to his master and sat down. "Hold on to this for me." Link then reached into the pouch that was hanging around the wolf's neck and placed the jewel in to. Link then stood up and looked at Zelda. The guards in the room began to move in to protective circle around her. Link laughed out loud. "After the display of power I have just shown do you think "The Great Hyrule Knights" even stand a chance!" The garuds ready their weapons reguardless and the sages began to take up a protective circle around Zelda. "Besides I am only here for a short time." You see there is more to this world than just the valley of Hyrule. I know I have seen it. There is a land Far beyond Holodrum and Labryanna,even further thanTermina,one called Shoenlow."Impa stepped forth. "Do you mean The Lost Land?" she asked with a slight amount of fear in her voice"Ahh…so rumors of it have spread to here as well." Grinned Link. "Yes it supposed to be a cursed land and supposedly a dark treasure resides there. The Shiekah have heard rumors of legends it exists." "Let me fill you in on a left out part of the legend of the Triforce." Zelda and the sages looked at each other both with worry and wonder. They were the sages of Hyrule why didn't they know about this? "Let us go to the Dining hall I am absolutely famished and Dusk here could use something to eat." The animal barked in agreement. The guards falling out and the sages following afterwards Link could hear the comments begin made and just smiled"…what happened to…what is that animal…where has he…my brother would never…" Link just smiled and shook his head. Calling out over his shoulder "All will be answered in due time." Link pushed open the doors with both hands. The table was filled with food of all kinds. Link took a seat at the head of the table and immediately started to gather a huge plate of food. The sages took seats and looked at Link. Darunia laughed. Even with his own peopleDaruina was not one for formalities. Link looked at Daruina and laughed as well. It was the first time since he was back that he did not scare them with his smile or his laugh. As the guard pulled out the chair for Zelda to sit down in, Dusk jumped up and and began to chew on the Leg of lamb she had taken form the far end of the table. Link just laughed. Zelda became a little bit flustered, but waved the guard off and sat down next to Linkto hisright side. A few minutes passed; Link, Dusk, and Darunia could be heard chewing and munching outside the hall. The others just sat there and tried to take it all in. " Link finally spoke " First time in a while you haven't had to hunt something down for us?" laughingly. "Well if you weren't such a klutz and knew how to hunt better." There was a definite female sound to her voice. Darunia stopped mid bite a few broken emeralds fell out his mouth. Dusk looked up leaned over to Link. "Why are they looking at me?" Link looked up from his turkey leg. "Oh, that because they have never heard an animal talk before." "Ahh let me begin…" But before she could say anything Link reached up and clamped his hand around her muzzle. "Not yet. Let me finish eating." Link released his hand and if he had moved it slower it would have been bitten off. "How many times do I have to tell you, DON'T DO THAT?". Link just laughed. "Finish eating". A few minutes later link put his feet up on the table reached in to a small pouch on his waist pulled out a small pipe filled it with a dark leaf. Grabbed the closet candle and began to inhale deeply. "Now we can begin."
