Hatred's Cruel Shadow:Decieved5

Lance sneaked past the wandering onlookers from the town,up to the castle.Shouting could be heard when extremly close to the stony walls.It was muffled but he could hear some of it.

"We're...getting...boy...ck!"

Lance raised his eyebrows,no chance in decodeing anything they said,besides he needed to bring them back to his master.Sneaking past the guards were easier than expected,he didn't know he could be so stealthy.

'Must run in the family'he thought to himself,smiling.Testing the wall of the castle,he scaled up to the window.The morning light had still not given him away.He opened the window carefully and quietly,plopping down inside.

"What the hell happened in here?"he whispered aloud as he looked upon the strewn books and tables.Picking up some of the loose pages,Lance sat down in a nearby corner and read them.It was about time travel.

'So they're into sorcery huh? A very hard subject to cope with no doubt about it.Hmmmmmm,makes me want to know what they plan on doing with the time stream'.Footsteps were coming from the hallway,heading in his direction.Lance dropped the pages and hid behind a still standing bookcase.He slowed his breathing and watched as a guard quietly came in the room,looked at the damage and then mumbled to himself about cleaning up later.Waiting a few moments,Lance finally set out in search of his prey.The hallways looked familiar,but this was no time for a trip down memory lane.Breathing deeply he listened for the tinyest sounds of anything for attack or ambush.Walking quickly and quietly he made his way to the bedrooms.He stopped at one that had been slammed shut.Thinking thats where his victims would be hiding he opened it carefully,only to find it was a little boy's room.Lance raised an eyebrow,they had a kid?The dust on the objects told him they had been expecting one but had probably died during childbirth,and her majesty didn't want to try again in fear of losing another child.Lance couldn't blame her,how would he act if he had a child which was taken away from him and dragged to hell?(resemblance much?)

He decided he didn't need to be in here,it reminded him to much of his own childhood...well what parts he could remember anyway.

After returning back to the hallway he stalked down entrance to the king and queen's room.Light breathing could be heard from the both of them.Good,they were asleep,but for how long would they stay that way?He opened the door very carefully and slipped inside.Yes,they were asleep,and from the looks of it,they had just went to bed.

'I bet their the ones that had that big fight...but whoever thought married couples would actually ''fight'' '.Lance had always thought when parents fought they yelled,these two were quite different. Making his way to their bed,Lance paused at a mirror.There was a portrit of the King and Queen behind him,and from the angle he was at,he looked as though he belonged in the picture to.He got an electric shock at how much he seemed to fit in,before shaking it off.He couldn't fit in,he was to evil for these good people.Their blue eyes clashed against his dark red ones.Some features just didn't cut it.He turned from the mirror back to his sleeping opponets,moving oh so catlike trying not to wake them.But to late,her majesty had just say up,her eyes alert.Lance ducked and hid at the side of the bed,crawling his way to her side to hopefully knock her out.Her eyes were catlike,watching everything for a sign of movement.She looked down and saw her assaign,but could do nothing about it as he blew some sort of powder at her which made her lose consciousness.She'd be out for a few hours,which was long enough.Lance crept his way back and tapped on Link's shoulder,waking him as well.He on the other hand didn't get to see exactly who was attacking him before he also lost consciousness.

Link and Zelda opened their eyes,looking around for any type of sign to show them where they were.A huge figure was emgerging through the shadows,and an evil grinning face stared down at them.

"Hello Link,Hello Zelda"Ganon smiled,his voice was a happy little whisper.Link tried to shout at him but his voice wasn't working,it was as though his vocal cords had been shut down.Of course,that powder had shut it down so that they couldn't call for help.Zelda was trying to free herself but had very little luck.Ganon beckond Lance forward,but without using his name.

"My dear boy,would you like to finish these two off for me?"

"Yes my lord"Lance breathed deeply,raising a sword.

"Oh wait a minute"Ganon spoke and Lance put the sword down.

"I want to introduce them to you,since their voices falter them at the moment.The majesty's of Hyrule,King Linkthe Hero of time,and Queen Zelda,Princess of destiny and ruler of sages.Your very mother and father".Lance's eyes widened and he dropped the blade,its clatter echoed off the walls.Link and Zelda had now stopped struggling and were now looking at him.

"No...they cannot be!They...They're pure of heart and I'm evil!"

"You think they don't have an evil side?Link,Zelda, this is the revenge I promised you"Ganon picked up the very blade Lance had dropped and raised it high above his head and prepared to strike Lance.But a sudden burst of flame hit Ganon square in the back.He turned angrily to see Zelda,her gaze fierce and ablaze with deep hatred.

"You must be out of your damn mind Zelda"Ganon turned to hit her instead but chains wrapped around his throat.Link had his 'leave her alone' facial expression set into place.Lance was to stunned and could not move,he just simply stared.How could they be his parents?Look at him!He was a monster!And they were heroes.He didn't realize that they had gotten out of their chains and were now attacking Ganon.

"Lance,help me".Lance looked up at Ganon.He had the nerve to ask for help from him when he had just tried to kill him and maniputlated him to bring his 'parents' to this dreaded place.

"Sure"he said darkly,picking up another sword and thrusting it through Ganon's stomache.He had been tricked out his happy go lucky life because of this monster,but before he could do anymore damage,Link and Zelda grabbed both his arms and ran out of there.Minions were coming to stop them from all directions,blocking they're way of the exit.

"There's another one"Lance spoke up,even though getting away from this small army was impossible.

"Link,hunny,a little help?"Zelda had placed her hands together and was focusing on a spell,ready to blast them to bits.Link looked at her,they didn't have time to fight all of them before Ganon got up to kill them...wait,time!

Link got out his orcarania and played a small tune.Lance looked at his 'father' as though he were crazy,now was not the time to give a concert!But the minions began to slow down till they stopped moving completely,nothing moved except him.

"Its only set for a few minutes,we'll never get that door open with time stopped,show us the other exit"Link looked up at Lance,Zelda looked around making sure they were all still.Lance's jaw dropped as he witnessed time stopping.

"LANCE!"

Lance jumped at the sound being yelled at,something he had always longed for since he was little for whatever reason.It was Link who yelled,the spell wasn't going to hold forever and they needed to go now!

"Right,sorry,this way".They all ran up to the towers.Lance paused outside the window.

"I know it may look impossible but you can scale down the wall".

"That'll take to much time,we need to get out of here before everybody can move again"Link replied getting out his hookshot,he looked up at Zelda.

"Meet you down there?" Zelda nodded and disappeared.Lance jumped again,but didn't get a chance to shake out of it as Link grabbed him and jumped out the window.Lance saw the ground coming closer and closer till the hookshot snapped them back.

They all ran to the temple of time,for right now it was the only shelter near and it would do for now.

A/N:What did you think?Ummm reviews please?
