The Dark Master Sword

The Mountain Plight!

~:~

Link Slowly began to wake his hand holding something thin and warm, he felt a hand against his face and an arm around his waist. His right leg was wrapped around something warm as well. Link smiled nuzzling the hand against his face as he blinked awake only to see Ghirahim's sleeping face inches away, looking so peaceful. Link almost went right back to sleep until he realized. Link tensed squirming away with a yell and a thump as he hit the ground. Ghirahim grumbled and sat up to stretch before rubbing the sleep from his eyes.

"Must you always be so loud in the morning?" Ghirahim complained, yawning slightly.

"Y-you're in bed... w-with..." Link stammered than gulped as his face grew entirely too hot at that moment. Ghirahim rolled his eyes at that as though the answer was so clear, so plainly obvious.

"Of course I was in bed with you," Ghirahim growled. "You left me in sword form, I had to wait until I lost consciousness, and when I did I reverted back to this form." Link paled at this information, how could he forget that Ghirahim could not change back on his own? "Next time remember to change me back, and if by chance you truly wish to have me in your bed, just ask." Ghirahim was now almost nose to nose with Link, who felt the heat rising in his cheeks once again. Honestly what was with him? It was like Ghirahim knew exactly what to say to change his mood at the drop of a hat. Ghirahim narrowed his eyes before turning his head to the side and pulling Link into a kiss. In his surprise, Link had left his mouth open which allowed the demon to slip his long, prehensile tongue within and wrap it around Link's. When Ghirahim withdrew Link was left gasping for air, his heart beating wildly as the demon left him there in shock. Link shook his head and stood up checking to make sure he was still clothed before he followed Ghirahim out of the room.

He paused when he saw Ghirahim collecting the supplies Link had asked for the day before. Link blushed as he watched the demon sling the pack onto his back with little to no effort. He had decided to ask for them after their training session and before Ghirahim had exited the room as the demon seemed to be taking his time. And of course when the demon had exited he asked where the kitchen was located. Ghirahim approached Link snapping him out of his memories, Link blushed as he watched the demon lick his lips with that long tantalizing tongue of his. He almost thought the demon was going to tease him but instead he stopped short and asked, "Ready to leave, master." Link glared at Ghirahim who only laughed and turned away. Did the demon really enjoy toying with him?

Ghirahim led the way back through Impa's path through the aqueducts and out of the castle, leading back into the town itself. Link was amazed, he had no idea that the demon sword could memorize a path after only traversing it once. It wasn't long before they wound their way through town and found the main road, leading east to the mountain. Often it was called Death Mountain and with the ominous ring of fire and smoke around it's crest, Link could discern why fairly easily. It was surprising that he could even see it from Castle Town's gates at all, but that is just how large the mountain truly is.

"Getting cold feet, Master?" Ghirahim asked emphasizing the last word as though he thought less of Link then usual. Link glared daggers at the demon sword, "Well that expression is one I am more used to but still. Have you forgotten our little adventure?" Link shook his head and pulled out his flute to play Epona's Song, he then put it away and mounted solemnly. He heard Ghirahim sigh, but when he looked the demon wouldn't even look at him. Link grinned suddenly as an idea popped into his head. He suddenly nudged Epona into a full out run before looking back to see the surprised look on his traveling companion before he caught on and urged Siear into a full run as well. Link laughed as he spurred Epona on towards the Mountains. The two raced along until their horses were too tired to race. They stopped at a pond where the horses drank water while the two males looked over the map to ensure they were still going the right way.

"Looks like a small mountain pass here," Link mentioned to break the silence. He caught Ghirahim's smile out of the corner of his eye. The path wove around the under side of the mountain clear to it's other side.

"Doesn't look like we will make it to the Mountain cavern before nightfall," Ghirahim replied. "We should head for this village and see if there is an Inn we can stay at for tonight, then we can go from there to the caverns." Link gulped, he could feel his face heating up with each breath that ghosted across his neck and shoulder. Ghirahim suddenly wrapped his arms around Link before stealing the map away and releasing him suddenly.

"Hey!" Link yelled plaintively. Ghirahim was grinning ear to ear as he tucked the map away into one of his pouches.

"Consider this payback for earlier," Ghirahim replied. "Although I should remember to punish you thoroughly for your transgressions." Link blushed as he watched Ghirahim's tongue snake out to lick his lips. Link looked away only to locate Epona, he had to get his mind away from the demon, who knew what sins the other had planned for him but he wasn't to be part of it. "So pure," Ghirahim suddenly said right by Link's ear startling him. How had the demon gotten so close so quickly? "I do enjoy your expressions, makes me want to see more." Link felt the unnaturally long tongue trace his earlobe with stunning accuracy. Link quickly sidestepped away from the demon and faced him only to see he had disappeared. He looked around only to spot Ghirahim now meters away standing next to Siear, had he imagined it? He touched his ear to wipe off the saliva and decided it had been real after all. He walked over to Epona and ran his hand down her long neck a few times to reassure himself. Epona nickered at him in annoyance and nodded her head impatiently. Link laughed before mounting, he waited for Ghirahim before setting off at a nice easy pace, this time making sure not to tire the horses out before reaching their destination.

Nightfall was well on it's way to meeting the two travelers when they finally navigated the mountain pass around the southern edge of death mountain to reach Kakariko Village on the far side. Death mountain itself lay to the east of Castle Town. Kakariko was getting ready for the night and it took some asking around before they found an Inn to rest in. The inn was called the Sleepy Goron Resort but it didn't look like anything too fancy from where Link stood. It did have multiple levels and the sun glinted off it's roof before disappearing behind the peak of Death Mountain. Link dismounted leaving Epona at the trough beside Siear before following the ever-confident Ghirahim into the Inn.

"Perhaps the locals may know what is troubling the Mountain's Cavern?" Ghirahim said, not truly asking at all. Link tried to hide his disgruntled expression before plastering a smile on his face and walking up to the innkeeper.

"What'll it be lad?" The husky woman asked.

"Umm, we need a room for the night," Link said, her deep voice made him nervous. She didn't look Hylian, or like any other type of person he had seen before either. Her skin was dark like the mountain itself and her arms had tribal tattoos and her nostrils were a part of her face just below her Black beady eyes. He couldn't help but stare at her as she reached for a set of keys handing him one.

"That'll be ten rupees, sweety," she said. He blinked a bit not truly registering that she had spoke. Ghirahim suddenly appeared by his side placing the rupee amount before her.

"Sorry about my friend he is not accustomed to seeing Gorons," Ghirahim spoke nonchalantly.

"No problem, sweety enjoy your stay," She said offhandedly as though she weren't actually enjoying her work.

"Wait, I was wondering if anything strange has been happening lately?" Link suddenly said remembering his task.

"Yea, strange rumors about dodongo's and lizalfoes on the mountain recently. I've never seen them leave the caverns like they have been. Normally their kind don't emerge from there but now sightings have become more recent. It's driving away all my customers and keeping my brethren trapped in the mines. Bet they would reward someone for clearin' 'em out, Maybe even Big Brother Durango himself will honor 'em," she explained. "I heard from one of the Brothers that he is even willing to give up a precious treasure our tribe received after the Twilight era." Link stood up then about to say something before Ghirahim clapped a hand over his mouth.

"Perhaps it would be wise for us to make our way to the room," Ghirahim said. The Goron Woman leaned forward suddenly and whispered to the two.

"Listen, if you do go up to that Cavern you'll want a better shield." She leaned back then and said in a normal voice, "Order up, Volcanic Blast Crab and Rock Stew." One of the waitress' rushed back behind the counter to grab the plate that had been placed on the window by a cook.

"How did she know...?" Link asked noticing she hadn't turned around to see the order that had been placed. Link looked at Ghirahim to see a look of disgust on his face before the demon ushered him out of the main area and toward the stairs. Link suddenly pushed Ghirahim to a stop and with an angry glare suddenly asked, "Why did you stop me from telling her that I would help?"

"You may not have noticed it, but there are bokoblins in there and at least one lizalfoe," Ghirahim grumbled. "So keep it down, we have some need for a bit of stealth as we will be sleeping here, we can't be on guard the whole time." Link looked down then knowing Ghirahim was right, if only he had looked around before to get a feel for the Inn's occupants.

"Sorry," Link replied, feeling foolish. Ghirahim placed two fingers under Link's chin and lifted the Hylian's face forcing the other to look at him.

"It's fine, I was surprised to see the occupant's, I assume she has to allow such filth into the Inn as business for her is rather bleak," Ghirahim explained. "But to see them in the same area means we will have issue's defeating their organized efforts. We will need to plan our strategy for clearing out the cavern and saving the Great Fairy."

"Save Great Fairy?" a squeaky voice asked from behind. Ghirahim turned in surprise to face the lizalfoe that appeared to have followed them. "You save Great Fairy?" It repeated.

"Yes," Link answered. The lizalfoe seemed to think on that a while.

"Get lizalfoe home back?" the creature inquired to no one in particular. "Yes, get lizalfoe home back, save Great Fairy. This task, complete...you must!" Link was slightly confused by the creatures broken Hylian speech. "You find treasure, take it, your reward, then lizalfoe get home back and leave pass caves." Link smiled and nodded not really certain what the lizalfoe was talking about but maybe.

"He want's us to get the caverns cleared for his people to return to," Ghirahim summed up. "What is in those caverns that could drive you all out?" The lizalfoe looked down in dismay before looking back up.

"Dodongo's, wild and mad, chase us out of home. Eats eggs and rock and queen rage. Kills us, eats us, only keese get away and stay and beamos and mad lizalfo stay too," The lizalfo squeaks out. "Stay for Ganon. Evil Beast King."

"But you didn't?" Ghirahim asked.

"I for safety of tribe, not for war of Ganon," the creature squawked angrily. "Ganon kill all who oppose. But not us, thinks us beasts, do his will."

"Fine, we'll save your precious home," Ghirahim said. He smiled then and pulled Link close. "Come let's get our rest before we go, it's been a long ride." Link nodded worming his way out of Ghirahim's hold to stand before the distraught lizalfo.

"Don't worry, we will save your home and the Great Fairy," Link said. The lizalfo seemed content with the answer and turned to walk away. Link smiled and headed up the stairs after Ghirahim.

When they reached the room and the door was secured behind them, Ghirahim suddenly spoke up, "It's probably a trap." Link spun around to see the demon eyeing himself approvingly in a mirror. Ghirahim then spun around flipping his hair briefly out of his face in an arrogant fashion. "You know it's been so long since I have been free, I forgot how fabulous I look."

"What if it's not a trap?" Link said suddenly. Ghirahim sighed and walked up to Link, his height made Link feel very small in comparison.

"If it's not, then it's not. But if it is, it helps to be prepared," Ghirahim explained. "I'd make all the plans but, ah well let's be honest my plans didn't work with the maiden, so honestly would they work here?" For the first time he saw uncertainty in Ghirahim's expression and it surprised Link. So far the demon had shown arrogance, cunning and even an obsession with toying with Link's emotions. Maybe even now the demon was just toying with him but how would he know? Ghirahim smiled then bringing himself eye level with Link before licking his lips and saying, "How about we have some fun tonight and worry about it tomorrow, master?" The husky tone made heat fly to Link's cheeks, he thought he would burst into flame until Ghirahim began to chuckle lightly. "Hm, so innocent." Link went from turned on to angry in seconds. The demon really knew how to press his buttons so completely.

"We should just sleep," Link replied angrily. All laughter left Ghirahim's expression, the demon sighed closing his eyes as he walked away toward one of the rooms beds.

"Very well," Ghirahim replied, sounding disappointed. All the anger Link had, fled in that moment but he dare not call out to Ghirahim, considering what the demon had brought up just moments before. Still, he reached out without thinking and grabbed Ghirahim's wrist. The demon didn't turn but instead responded with, "It's fine, you're not quite ready for the master/servant relationship that I wish for." Link was surprised by that statement and didn't fully understand what Ghirahim meant by it. The demon turned then when Link had refused to let go, he kissed Link slipping his tongue inside of his gaping mouth. Link groaned in his surprise releasing Ghirahim's wrist to place his hand against Ghirahim's chest, Ghirahim didn't let up holding the hero close. When the demon pulled away Link felt his limbs nearly go limp as air finally entered his lungs, and he stood there for a time gasping for air. Ghirahim was giving him a half-lidded gaze that made his face feel like it was on fire. Link stepped back before heading away from the demon to the other bed, where he sat and watched Ghirahim as he headed to the bed on the other side of the room.

Honestly, what was he doing? He practically let the demon do as he pleased just now, if this keeps up will he lose himself forever? He wondered as he sat there before noticing he was staring at his feet. He shook his head, removed his boots and laid in the bed. It took mere moments for Link to pass out from his exhaustion, after all that ride hadn't been the easiest for him. He hadn't rode Epona for a whole day before and he was sore in places he didn't even know could hurt.

~:~

Ghirahim awoke to Link's panting in his sleep, it sounded like it could be another nightmare but maybe it was more than that. He sighed and walked over to the other male and shook his shoulder. He was surprised when the hero latched onto him and wouldn't let go.

"Ghira..him," Link mumbled in his sleep.

"Mm, Link.." Ghirahim whispered, the other would not release him so he was forced to lay beside Link as the other clutched him close. Ghirahim could feel his heart beating wildly as the other began to relax, whatever dream he had been having seemed to calm down and took on some other interesting tone. Ghirahim grinned, maybe it was time to point his master's dream to a better place. He whispered a few sweet nothings into Link's ear and received a welcome moan in response, clearly Link was dreaming something truly naughty now. At least it was better than the nightmare from before, soon he was able to pry himself free of Link's grasp long enough to slip away and back to the bed he had decided to occupy.

"Ghira..him," Link moaned, as Ghirahim finally began to fall back to sleep.

~:~

A long call of the morning cucco woke Ghirahim this time and apparently woke Link as well as they both sat up from the loud sound. Ghirahim groaned, he felt as though he hadn't truly slept a wink and he was sore from the saddle as well. He knew Link hadn't fared any better and was probably still sore in places but they had to press on. The mountain path would be rough and too tedious for the horses so at least they would be on foot for the time being. Link yawned and tried to lay back down when Ghirahim threw his pillow at the hero.

"We will have to get moving if we want to make good time," Ghirahim said. Link groaned and got up stretching as he did, the demon couldn't help but admire the view, after all he hadn't seen this side of the hero before. It was quite refreshing to see every side of the hero who had beaten him and his master so long ago. He frowned as he remembered when Demise abandoned him in that dark place, he wanted revenge but it would have to wait for now. It was more important to get the hero prepared before then and maybe even prepared in a few other ways as well. Ghirahim grinned to himself as he imagined all the things they could do together, it made him feel warm and tingly. He caught Link frowning at him and decided it was time to mess with the hero before they leave. He reached forward when he was close enough and pulled Link into a passionate kiss. Link moaned unable to help it as the demon ravaged his mouth. Then Ghirahim pulled away and left the room.

It wasn't long before he spotted the Lizalfo waiting for them at the door, the creature looked ready for battle and even had one or two bokoblins at his side. These bokoblins seemed to follow his every order as he passed them a message and they scurried off out the door. The lizalfo spotted him and walked forward.

"Leare come with, chief have respossible for people," the creature replied. Ghirahim groaned before speaking in the Lizalfo's native tongue.

"So you chief?" Ghirahim said in the simplistic tongue. The lizalfo creaked in surprise.

"Yes, me chief Leare, responsible for tribe," Leare responded in his native tongue. "You speak like us?"

"Long story, yes I speak well," Ghirahim replied. "Companion does not." Leare nodded at this as though recognizing that Link would not know his peoples native language. "Lizalfo tongue has not changed in many years."

"No, tongue very good, easy to speak," Leare replied. "Land dweller tongue hard to speak, many words." Leare's scales appeared to be a brighter color than most.

"What element?" Ghirahim asked as Link finally joined them.

"No element, shaman," Leare replied. "Many changes came, shaman now conjure all." Ghirahim nodded.

"What is he saying?" Link asked.

"He is coming with us, he is a shaman so he can assist us in the cavern where we need him too," Ghirahim replied. "We better get you a better shield as well, perhaps there is a shop that will sell one."

"Yes, metal shield shop," Leare said in Hylian. "Sell good shield, no burns. Come, I show." They followed Leare out of the inn and down the road past a few buildings until they reached a blacksmith shop. It was a stone building with a huge metal shield and crossed swords behind it. Link entered first with Leare and Ghirahim not far behind. He noticed many different kinds of weapons and even a few swords strewn about until his eyes fell on one thing in particular, a shield with the royal family crest on it.

"Excuse me," Link said to get the shopkeeper's attention. The Hylian male walked over to him wearing some kind of metal mask. He lifted the mask to reveal a haggard man with a half beard and a mustache, he smelled of fire and hot metal from his working the forge all day.

"Whattaya want?" he groused.

"How much is that shield?" Link asked.

"Usually I sell it for two-hundred rupees," the man replied. "But business being as slow as it is I'll let it go for a hundred-fifty." Link gaped slightly before pulling out his wallet he only had a hundred-twenty. Ghirahim tossed down a purple rupee on the counter before eyeing Link. Link carefully counted out the hundred rupees from his assortment of red, blue and green rupees and set them down. He watched the male count the rupees before handing over the shield. "If you go back to the castle, don't tell um where you got this shield got it kid?"

"Why?" Link asked.

"Things were real funny up there a'fore I left," the male replied. "Something strange is goin' on and I want no part in it. Now get outta here." Link nodded and left with his entourage and new shield. He walked up to Epona and slung his wooden shield into one of the saddlebags. He was surprised it fit considering it's size, but it was smaller than the Hylian shield that offered him a lot better protection than the smaller wooden shield.

"Mountain pass bad for horse," Leare spoke up suddenly. "We walk." Link turned to Leare and nodded, grabbing everything he would need for the journey. Walking would be a good change of pace at least, plus considering the steep and rugged terrain, he was actually kind of glad he hadn't brought Epona. He didn't want to injure her after all, Link himself had slipped more than once and nearly tripped a few other times. Luckily, Ghirahim had easily caught him on those occasions just before he fell on his face. He looked over to notice the demon kept an eye out for any potential hazard and before he knew it his foot caught again, sending him reeling forward only to be hefted back onto his feet.

"Need I tell you to watch your feet, master?" Ghirahim asked, seemingly amused. "Or would you rather I catch you every time?" Link sighed, and stuck to watching the terrain at his feet until they reached a huge cliff face. There were vines growing down one side, he heard Ghirahim scoff at the obstacle before he suddenly disappeared and reappeared on top. Link gaped at the demon before following Leare who leapt most the way up and used the vines to climb the rest of the way. Link however had to climb the whole way. Once at the top the others gave Link time to catch his breath before Leare lead them deeper into the pass. They climbed two more cliffs before they finally reached the cave, well it was mostly Link climbing anyway. The cave entrance was a huge hollow in the mountain side. There was heat coming out in waves that made Link a little nervous. Leare looked a little nervous, at Link who was already sweating profusely.

"Hylian too hot?" Leare asked. Link shook his head, but the Lizalfo didn't look as though he were convinced. He reached into his pouch and pulled out some sort of necklace. "Here, this keep you cool." Link accepted it and put it on, he immediately felt the heat dissipate as though he had left the mountain and was in a much cooler climate. He looked at the necklace but couldn't figure out why it had worked. "Chanted Ice Pendant, for hot places. Leare used to mountain, heat no bother Lizalfo." Link smiled and nodded ready to move on.

"Well I suppose it's time," Ghirahim replied nodding at Link. Link frowned before looking at Leare, Ghirahim chuckled before summoning a weapon of his own. "Ready your weapons." Link pulled out the sword he brought with him, as well as the Hylian Shield he had just bought in Kakariko village. Leare pulled out his staff, and they all began their journey into the cavern. The very first room they came across was a giant cavernous space lit by the churning lava that ringed a giant pillar in the middle. Link frowned wondering if there was anything special up there. He noticed as well some platforms on the lava that he could jump to if wanted. He weighed the risk and the obvious issue that they weren't going anywhere as of yet, before deciding against jumping onto one.

Four different pathways were in the back of the cavern, one was blocked with chains and what looked to be a key of some kind. Beyond that chained gate was a set of stairs that led upwards, where it went from there he had no idea it was a little dark on the way up. He frowned but decided to try the pathway on the right. They followed it's winding path past a few lava pits until they reached a gate. He was about to turn around when Leare stopped him.

"Watch," Leare said before suddenly casting a spell. It took all of Leare's concentration but he moved one of the stone statues onto the far button. The sound of a gate moving reached their ears but it wasn't the one in front of them. "Mmm, Leare move that one.." He said casting the spell once more he moved another from the center to the one opposite the one had just moved Another gate lifted but it was not the gate they needed. Leare sighed, "One more.." This time he moved a statue from the center toward the button closest to them. Finally their gate opened and Leare declared he needed a rest. Link smiled before he noticed one last gate had not lifted but before he could move the statue he had to deal with the rooms inhabitants who fell from the ceiling. Magma slugs, he dodged the fiery attack and struck while it was cool three times before it finally died and melted into the floor. He looked around to make sure there no more. He looked around to see Ghirahim striking down a couple more with his dark daggers before he went to move the statue. A loud noise startled him so he looked back to see a fire keese with a dark dagger sticking out of it. He sighed preparing to push once more and let the demon take care of any other enemies. It took a few solid pushes before he finally got the remaining statue in place to lift the final gate in the room. A loud sound rang through the room causing Link to look around in search of whatever had made it. Then a fairly large chest dropped from the ceiling in the center of the room where the statues had just been.

He walked forward and around to the front before carefully opening it, only to find a map inside. Link grinned looking over the different rooms and associating them with the pathways he saw around them. After looking the map over he decided to follow the pathway south of them. He followed the path slicing through a couple fire keese along the way and and using his slingshot for the last as they arrived at a fairly interesting room. The room had several eggs scattered around it and some stone platforms leading up the wall. As they stepped inside a gate suddenly closed behind them Suddenly a small two legged lizard burst from one of the eggs and two more from two others that were wriggling. Link charged at one only to need to dodge it's fire breath and sliced at it's raised tail twice. He dodged it's next breath and sliced two more times to end the creature. He turned to see Leare taking care of one and Ghirahim dispatching the final creature before the sound of a small chest dropping drew his attention up to one of the platforms. The top platform to be exact, he sighed and began to leap from one platform to another until he was finally able to kick open the small chest for a small key. And as a bonus the gate was now open. He turned toward the wall opposite the gate however. There was supposed to be a staircase beyond the wall, but the wall itself looked rather old and batters and place where a key may have once gone years before was now a dilapidated piece of stonework.

"Key hole no work," Leare said suddenly. "Once led to Queen, now just wall. Need shoot eye there." Link looked up where the lizalfo pointed and took out his slingshot and aimed a deku seed at it. The seed struck it but nothing happened.

"Allow me," Ghirahim replied tossing a dark dagger at it. The eye closed and the sound of grinding stone sounded from somewhere in the caverns. Link wondered if it came from the main area they had come from with the large pillar. He shrugged and headed back down the tunnel to the previous room before heading to the east gate and it's short tunnel that lead to a door sealed by a small key. He used the key and stepped into the room only to have the door slam shut behind him and bars block the way. He spun around only to realize Ghirahim and Leare were still on the other side and the room was starting to get brighter. The flapping of keese wings were his only warning that he was not alone. The sound stopped and he turned slicing into two keese that had dive bombed at him. He grunted dodging a third before slicing into it as well, only two left now. He waited as they flapped around before finally diving at him, he made short work of each one and sheathed his weapon as the door opened and Ghirahim rushed inside. The demon relaxed as he realized there were no enemies and a chest suddenly appeared. Link frowned as he pulled yet another small key, it was then he noticed a chest in the back of the room all by it's lonesome. He opened it to find a purple rupee inside and smiled, at least this room hadn't been a total waste of a good key.

They all went back out before following the stairs to the north up to another room. This one had a few more of the small reptile like creatures that Link came to realize were probably small dodongos. They easily dispatched them and the two keese before following a tunnel that curved down and around to another room. This one was eerily silent as they entered, it wasn't until Link reached the center of the room that the Gate closed behind Leare and Ghirahim and slightly larger dodongo came out of a nearby tunnel above them. It landed with a hard thud and growled at them, it then breathed fire at Leare who just stood there as though paralyzed. Link quickly tackled Leare out of the fire's way and he heard the beast cry out. Ghirahim must have attacked it while it was distracted because it turned toward the immediate threat. Link pulled himself up and charged at the beasts tail slicing into it as Ghirahim dodged it's fire breath. It turned to him then forcing him to dodge it's fire breath while Ghirahim struck the final blow. Link sighed until the demon suddenly appeared before him and pushed him into a nearby wall, keeping his body between Link and the beast.

"Ghirahim wha.." Link's words were cut short as an explosion rocked the whole room causing him to cling to the demon for support. Once the shaking stopped he let go of Ghirahim's cloak, the demon smiled at him and moved away. Link looked around frantically to see if he could find Leare, before spotting him curled up near one of the walls with his tail over his head. The Lizalfo quickly got up and straightened himself as though nothing had happened. Link grinned as he noticed the chest left behind, another small key. He was beginning to wonder if all he was going to find were small key's when he realized there was a door that required it inside the room. He smiled and used it on the door before following the stairs down to another room. This one was a huge lava pit with several pillars he could jump on to move around the room and to the southeast was tunnel but far to the north west was a chest. It was quite large too, he sighed before hopping his way across the pillars only to stop as a lava slug fell on the pillar he was about to jump to next. Suddenly an ice bolt flew past him freezing the slug which slid right off into the lava pit below and shattering from the heat. Link smiled back at Leare who was now making his way across. Finally he stood before the chest and opened it to find a compass. He lined it up with the map and several chests appeared, some of which he had already opened. Link put the map away and looked around spotting Ghirahim on another ledge opening a smaller chest that appeared to be holding a blue rupee. Link grinned before hopping from pillar to pillar to reach the south eastern tunnel.

The tunnel wound around and back out to the main cavern. Link frowned and crossed his arms as he realized they just made a huge circle. He sighed before walking down the western tunnel that lead them to another room with gates. This time though a gate was already open because a statue was already sitting on a switch which was very peculiar. Their gate was closed however and it was obvious the statues had been moved recently. Leare used his magic to move each of the remaining three. One of them freed a couple of small dodongos from the ceiling and another freed a couple lava slugs from the ceiling. Finally the third statue opened the gate in front of them allowing them access. Leare took care of the slugs while Ghirahim and Link made short work of the small dodongos. Leare gasped a bit as the loud sound played through the room, another chest appeared from the ceiling a large one at that. Link stepped up to it and upened it but what he found shocked him. It was crystal heart, but unlike the container he had received from the previous cave this one had a tiny heart inside of it. He lifted it and shattered the magic suddenly going inside of his body but he didn't feel any different this time. Maybe if he collected more though.

"That was a heart piece," Ghirahim seemed stunned at the treasure they had found.

"A heart piece?" Link asked.

"Yes, it isn't like the Heart Container, it will still heal all of your wounds but you won't feel any stronger until you have collected four of them," Ghirahim explained. "Honestly I'd only heard about them, never have I ever seen one in person. Good fine, master." Link gave Ghirahim a skeptical look but accepted the information before turning toward the tunnel whose gate had already been opened. He followed it to another chamber this one had a rather dark pit and several pillars. A torch lay in the middle unlit, the pillar itself had some ruble on it that made it impossible to jump to. Link sighed, he supposed they would have to wait until they found some bombs or something. He looked around spotting ruble on the other pillars as well, an eye switch and what looked to be a pristine door with a strange locking mechanism. That must be the door they needed to get to the queen. Leare suddenly finished an incantation and lit the torch in the center, this caused the pillars to move.

"Ghirahim another eye switch," Link said. Ghirahim sent a dark dagger at it and it closed. The grinding sounded again only now it was lasting longer. Link wondered if the eye switches were connected to the pillars in the main cavern. Link rushed back to the main cavern slicing down three keese that decided to try and dive at him. He watched as one of the pillars was sinking back down to the lava and watched as it raised back up. It wasn't nearly as tall as the central pillar yet, making him wonder if there was a third eye switch. He smiled but frowned as he noticed one of the pillars had yet to move. He made his was over to the locked gate, passed the tunnel he had come out of after that large loop and used his finally small key. He swung the gate toward him and walked up the stairs making sure Leare and Ghirahim were close behind. When they reached the top the found a bit of a larger room Link walked to the center of it and turned as a gate crashed down behind him. Leare croaked and readied his staff causing Link to spin around again as two armored lizalfo jumped into the room from one of the many alcoves above them.

Leare and the lizalfo seemed to exchange words that Link didn't understand, and Ghirahim also replied to them before the two attacked them. Link blocked one of the lizalfo's attacks with his new shield and thrust the creature back. Each one took turns leaping at him only to be attacked by his companions. Leare cast his spells at the one that was farther away while Ghirahim attacked with his twin swords. It took a few hits before the armor stated to fall off bit by bit and longer still before they were finally defeated. Leare stood before the two lizalfo as they knelt beaten and clearly freed from whatever had taken their minds before. A chest appeared as well in this room, which Link opened once he had finally caught his breath. Dodging and blocking had taken a toll on him. Inside the chest was a bag and when he opened it he found bombs, ready and waiting to be used. He smiled and began to head out but stopped to look back at Leare.

"Leare?" Link asked.

"Leare stay here," Leare said as he tended his kin. "Leare meet outside, go on, stop queen." He turned to Link then with a serious expression. Link nodded and headed out with the demon sword in tow. Once in the center he frowned before hearing a familiar grinding sound. Leare must have found the last switch, Link decided. The pillar that hadn't moved sudden shot up faster than the others obviously able to reach the top unlike the others. Link waited until it was all the way back down before hopping up on top of it. As it shot straight up he only staggered a little bit, at the top he leapt across and moved to stand before the decorative chest. He ran his hand across the top of it and then opened it to find an oddly shaped key. It looked a lot like a dragon, he turned back toward the pillar and quickly leapt back on top of it just before it started back down. This time he fell on his butt as he hadn't quite stuck the landing. He stood up rubbing his backside before hopping back across to where Ghirahim waited for him. The demon was holding back his obvious mirth as they headed back to the room with the now moving pillars. Link pulled out one of the bombs and lit it. He was about to throw it when the demon interrupted him.

"Wait," Ghirahim said watching the bomb. "Now." Link threw the bomb as the demon said it and had to back peddle a bit from the shockwave. One pillar was now rubble free. He repeated that three more time freeing the remainder of the pillars of rubble before hopping onto one and letting it bring him around to a ledge he could leap to with a chest on it. He hopped off and opened it to find some more bombs, which he placed in the bomb bag. He saw Ghirahim across the room opening another chest which held what looked like another blue rupee. The demon suddenly teleported to him with a sassy grin on his face. Link sighed before going around and leaping back onto the moving pillar. He almost fell of this time but Ghirahim easily pulled him up and tossed him onto ledge that led to the door they were looking for. The demon suddenly appeared beside Link and cleared his throat. "It's time." Link nodded and focused on pulling Ghirahim's energies into his sword form before pulling the sword itself and giving it a swing. He sheathed it and headed to the door pulling out the strange key, this one didn't take much maneuvering before he twisted it and pushed the door so it would slide up out of the way.

Link walked followed the staircase down, down, down into the depths. He thought the stairs would continue to delve deeper when he finally saw light at the end of the staircase. It was hotter down here and there was an unexpected surprise that awaited him. There was a male outline clad in red armor, the male spun around and pulled his spear as Link approached. Link in turn pulled the dark sword from it's sheath and spoke, "Are you the one causing trouble here?" The male seemed to relax and turned away.

"No," he placed his spear back into a holder on his back and pointed across the cavern at a pile of eggs surrounding what appeared to be a boulder. Link stepped forward to get a closer look.

"That boulder?" Link asked skeptically. The male chuckled before leaning forward and yelling a cone of fire exploded in front of him smacking into the boulder. He then relaxed, Link had taken a battle stance out of surprise. Suddenly the earth began to shake and shudder causing Link to stagger. As he watched trying to maintain his balance the boulder suddenly stood and roared. It curled suddenly and began to roll. The larger male grabbed Link and leapt to a platform in the lava pit barely avoiding the crazed beast as it crashed into the wall and roared.

"That is the Queen Dodongo," the male replied.

"That is the Queen?" Link parroted. The male only chuckled before getting serious as the creature opened it's maw wide.

The bombs, Link, Ghirahim's thoughts suddenly invaded as the beats began to inhale. Link threw in a bomb which was sucked into it's mouth. It began to chew and then boom, the explosion caused the beast to collapse. Link hopped back across and sliced into the beast on one side and noticed the other male doing the same on the other. The beast got up suddenly and roared, Link grabbed his ears and was suddenly pulled back to that humk of rock in the lava pit. He looked up grateful this other male was kind enough to save him from being squashed. He watched as the queen rolled all the way around the room splitting open a couple of eggs along the way. She slammed into the wall and turned toward them stomping on the ground while her babies stalked after them from the lava pits. The male pulled him back to the path as two of the babies suddenly leapt from the lava pool. What happened next both shocked and surprised Link as the male reacted so fast he had almost instantly slayed the two small dodongos. The male elbowed link and dodges rocks falling from overhead. Link grunted and did the same being careful to watch for the falling rocks as well. The Queen roared before going into her roll once more, this time Link made the jump himself and the queen crashed into the wall before turning back towards them and inhaling. He tossed another bomb into her gaping maw and watched with an almost sick sense of pleasure as the explosion sent her careening to the floor. Clearly this creature never learned from it's mistakes.

A wry grin found it's way onto his face as his sliced into her a few more times this time as she got up though Link leapt across as she roared and watched as she rolled away from them again. The process repeated again with the small dodongos and her rolling back over. This time when she was down he felt the urge to finish her once and for all. He allowed the dark energies to fill him and once it was time he released it slicing the creatures skull wide open and letting it's molten innards seep out onto the ground. A familiar laugh filled his mind and smiled licking his lips as he backed away from the now dead beast. He looked over at the taller male who kept his eyes hidden and his expression blank. Link stopped grinning like a fool and focused, he summoned the gem at the tip of the sword before pushing Ghirahim's energies back into it. Ghirahim laughed once he was fully reformed at turned to toward the new male.

"You, I don't believe we've met," Ghirahim said.

"Volga, dragon lord," he replied.

"Ghirahim, and this is my master Link," the demon replied. Link however was too focused on the lava pit which had suddenly drained quite a bit to reveal a few more pillars in the lava and a stone ring in the center. He leapt across while Ghirahim prepared the spell that would teleport them out of the cavern. As he approached the ring he noticed the etching of the royal crest on the stone. He pulled out his ocarina and played the song of the royal family. Laughter filled the room and the fairy emerged floating before Link. She lay on her stomach in the air to give Link an ample view of her cleavage before she finally broke the silence. The flames at the on either side were as red as her hair and made him feel the heat of the mountain.

(Quick note I changed chapter two to be Nayru's Love instead of Din's Fire.. it just didn't make any sense to me sorry guys ok on with the story)

"Hero of destiny, You have dispelled an evil curse placed upon my blessed spring, I am in your debt," She said in a sultry voice. "I shall give you a gift worthy of your quest as a thank you for saving me, please accept this gift as a token of my gratitude." She kissed bother hands and opened her arms sending out a wave of powerful energy. He looked down at the gauntlet to see a red gem appear on it suddenly. "That gem hold's Din's Fire, surely it will be a light the darkest of places." She suddenly laughed and disappeared back into the fiery looking waters of her pool. Link looked up then and quickly made his way back to see Volga waiting in the circle for him as well. He made his way over to the Heart Container and lifted it. It burst into magical dust that his body seemed to absorb before he felt an overwhelming sense that he had somehow become stronger. Link then joined the two males inside the circle.

"Ahhhh," Link yelled as he nearly fell once more. Luckily strong arms grabbed his and pulled him up to stand on the ledge they had been teleported to. He looked at Ghirahim only to see a confused look on his face.

"I was sure I had it right this time," he mumbled. He then knelt before Link. "I'm sorry master, I'll do better next time." The sincerity caught him off-guard so he scratched the back of his head.

"It's okay, I'm fine," Link replied looking to Volga who had been the one to catch him and pull him up. A surprised high pitched sound had them turning to see Leare and the other two lizalfo following behind him.

"Volga," Leare said before kneeling. "You were stone, you were." Volga hummed as though it was nothing to be concerned over.

"That beast woke me," he replied simply before turning to Link. "I'll go with you, for now." Link couldn't help the heat that rose to his cheeks, this male was as hot as the mountain he came from and intimidating to boot. Link gulped before nodding and turning back to the cliff, his blush however grew as the larger male suddenly lifted him and just jumped straight down to the bottom. Link closed his eyes but he barely even felt them land, it was as though. He suddenly opened his eyes to see that the male had a pair of wings that had slowed his descent. The male chuckled clearly see Link's shocked look before flapping the wings and taking off leaving Leare and Ghirahim behind. "Where to?" Link pointed down the mountain toward Kakariko Village. The male easily glided down toward it before easily landing just outside the Village. He then set Link down and retracted the wings back into his armor. Soon it was as though they had never even been there.

"Just who do you think you are stealing my master away?" Ghirahim said suddenly. The dragon man whirled around to face Ghirahim. The two seemed to be in some sort of predatory staring contest to Link. And then the silence was broken by none other than Volga the newest companion to their group.

"Master? What kind of weapon allows their master to remain in such danger?" he asked. "Or places them in dangerous situations to begin with?" Ghirahim flinched at that but didn't back down an inch. "It's clear you can't handle protecting him, so I will." Link felt his jaw drop but couldn't actually believe what he just heard. The demon glared clearly angry that the other male would even suggest such a preposterous thing.

"He's my master, I will protect him," Ghirahim replied. Link had never seen the demon act this way, let alone with someone he doesn't even know.

"Tch, fine job you've done so far," Volga shot back at him pulling his spear. Ghirahim summoned his blades and took a stance.

"Stop," Link shouted suddenly. "This isn't the place to fight." the two males looked at him with surprise. Volga turned away and spat before putting away his spear, while Ghirahim allowed his summoned swords to disappear in a sea of diamonds.

"You're right, master," Ghirahim replied. "Shall we go get some sleep?" Link felt heat rise to cheeks, for some weird reason the thought of Ghirahim fighting for him made him hot. Link turned away and nodded without saying anything for fear his voice would give away too much. Link led the way back to the inn and peered up at the darkening sky. It was already this close to nightfall and he hadn't even realized it. He sighed as he opened the inn door and walked up to the counter. "Two rooms please, one for me and Link and one for this guy."

"Link will be in my room tonight," Volga suddenly said. Link blushed, he seriously hoped they weren't about to fight in an inn full of people.

"So you think," Ghirahim replied confidently.

"So I know," Volga replied, just as confidently. Link placed his hands over his ears, he did not want a fight to ensue, not here.

"He doesn't even know you," Ghirahim argued. This seemed to halt the argument, as the keys were placed before them.

"Ten rupees each, sweety," the gruff voice of the female goron said. Ghirahim placed down two blue rupees each worth five rupees a piece. Volga placed a blue rupee and five green rupees which the female Goron accepted. Link followed Ghirahim to the stairs where Volga suddenly pulled him to a stop.

"It will be safer in my room," Volga said suddenly. Link pursed his lips, he wasn't exactly sure why this other male was so insistent on being in the same room as him.

"He'll be safe with me," Ghirahim replied.

"You want me to believe that? Or him?" Volga asked. "It's clear he has an ulterior motive."

"And you don't?" Ghirahim asked with a small laugh. Volga still had a very serious expression on his face making him unreadable.

"Fine let's let him decide," Volga replied suddenly looking at Link.

"Indeed, who do you choose to sleep with tonight?" Ghirahim asked giving a sly grin. Link felt the heat rush to his face, was Ghirahim seriously asking that and so bluntly too? The obvious grin had him truly believing the demon fully expected him to decide to sleep with one of them. He looked at Volga who still stone-faced and unreadable yet watching him as though it truly meant something to hear the answer. Link lowered his gaze before he mumbled out an answer.

~:~

Link entered the room first, it was already dark and the shadows stretched across the room. The triumphant humming followed him within.

"I knew you'd pick me," Ghirahim said as he closed the door. He then snapped his finger lighting the only candle in the room before wrapping his arms around Link. Link shivered, it felt different this time. He could feel his member already straining against his pantaloons aching to be touched and caressed. Ghirahim seemed blissfully unaware of the affect he had on Link. The demon then moved away toward the bed. "Haaah, shall we sleep?" Ghirahim asked peering over at Link who just stood there unable to move. The demon grew concerned and moved back over to stand before the hero. "What's the matter master?" he asked in a low seductive tone. Link couldn't take it anymore, he wrapped his arms around Ghirahim and melded his mouth to the demon's. Ghirahim growled into the kiss, and the friendly kind, the primal heady kind that bespoke of sins to come. Then link felt the demon lightly pushing him away. "Are you sure about this? Once I start there is no going back." Link gulped but nodded, he needed this.

Ghirahim grinned before lifting Link off the ground and carried him to the center of the room. With a snap of his fingers both beds were suddenly side by side and Link was being laid on them. Ghirahim then dove in for a truly passionate kiss, his tongue caressing places on Link's that sent electricity zinging through his body. It was like being struck by lightning in a storm only with the pain being replaced by pleasure. Link moaned as the demon snapped his finger instantly removing his clothes so that he could caress the bare skin beneath. Another snap the demon's clothes vanished as well. Link eagerly ran his fingers along that taut pale skin and explored every muscle, every crease. Heat rose to his cheeks as he realized what he was doing, when did he become so bold? The thought fled as one of Ghirahim's hands strayed lower stroking down past Link's erection to fondle each ball. He moaned into the kiss, it felt so amazing. Ghirahim pulled away and grinned chuckling a bit before bringing his lips even with the tip of his hard member. He used one hand to hold it up and erect while the other continued to message his balls. But Link could have never imagined what was going to happen next. The long tongue snaked out wrapping itself around Link's erection. Link groaned and hips bucked involuntary only to feel yet another unexpected sensation.

A warm wet cavern enveloped his hard member and closed suddenly drawing out something from deep within. He couldn't help but vocalize his pleasure with every pull and squeeze of Ghirahim's mouth and tongue. It felt so good he hadn't even noticed the advances of a foreign invader until it was already pressing at a place that wouldn't let it in. Link moaned at a particularly pleasurable pull and he felt himself relax afterward allowing the finger to slip past the tight anal ring to delve into deeper depths.

"G-Ghirahim.." Link groaned, he wasn't sure about the whole fingering sensation it felt strange in comparison to the pleasure he was feeling otherwise. The finger wriggled a bit everytime he loosened up, getting deeper with each attempt and then it prodded at something new and then pressed and rubbed it in a slow circular fashion causing heat to rise and his member to grow even harder than before. Link even began to touch his own body, tracing the places that pleasure had already went. He heard Ghirahim growl, the rumbling traveling down his hard member and through his very bones. "Ghirahim… m-more.. p-please," Link stammered. The demon seemed only too happy to oblige nearly removing the first finger and wriggling in a second. The stimulation was almost too much, a quick snap however left Link unable to cum yet and needy for that final release. Link winced as the pleasure built up to bursting and then, then there was the stretching. Link felt tears beginning to stream from his eyes, he need to peak. He needed to cum or he was going to go mad from the pleasure of it. "Ghirahim.. I-I-I c-can't" Ghirahim released the spell and swallowed his member, Link cried out as he felt his seed leaving his body. There was pleasure and heat but most of all there was pure bliss in that moment. It was as though his body fufilled it's one true purpose, it leaft him breathless and boneless as the demon continued to toy with his tight anal ring stretching it with the two fingers still lodged inside. Link didn't care about that part of him anymore it wasn't as important as when he was feeling right now. Ghirahim climbed up his body then and grinned.

"Don't worry master," he said. "We're not done quite yet." Link didn't respond, he was so relaxed he couldn't even think of moving. Then the fingers disappeared only to be replaced by something bigger, thicker. Link grabbed onto Ghirahim as the large erection stretched him farther. He groaned, as it pushed inside of him. Carefully, slowly it pressed inside a little at a time. The large phallus pressed into that sweet spot causing a moan and small convulsions that allowed it to press inside even farther. Ghirahim licked his lips and pressed in a bit more causing Link to squeeze his bicep and clench his teeth. The stretching was uncomfortable but that pleasurable sweet spot made it bearable as it was rubbed and prodded it made him relax and drew out his orgasm from earlier. Had Ghirahim planned this on purpose? To get him to relax as he was penetrated? Link moaned as Ghirahim pulled out a bit before pressing back in a bit farther. Link looked down and panicked to see that not very much had made it inside yet there were still a few inches left to go. The demon took his time easing in and out deeper and deeper each time. It took many small thrusts before Ghirahim was finally hilted. Link gasped and moaned at the strange sensation, he half wondered what the demon had been thinking. But then he began to move throwing all thoughts to the wind as the demon caressed his body and thrust in and out.

Link bit his lower lip as the pleasure returned, slowly at first but then building as the thrusts became faster, little by little. He gasped and moaned in time to the thrusts, he had no idea he could feel this good from something like this. Not to mention how was Ghirahim so good at this? Ghirahim suddenly kissed him as though sensing his thoughts. Link moaned into the kiss as his pleasure built higher, higher than he it had before. And then he felt it, Ghirahim slowed as he pumped his seed deep inside of Link. Link felt his balls pressing up against him trying desperately to release what it obviously did not have. His eyes rolled into the back of his skull as rode the waves of pleasure and bliss to paradise. Black spots entered his vision and then he knew no more.
