Chapter 14 - Ganondorf Battles Yveltal! - Revival! - To the Tree of Life!

Ganondorf watched Yveltal's destruction from afar. He was not happy about it. "Taking over this world isn't gonna be at all enjoyable if I'm the only one who lives in it." he complained. As he watched Yveltal fly away, he decided what he had to do.

"HEY BIRD!" he yelled. This caught Yveltal's attention and he turned around to face The King of Evil.

Ganondorf jumped onto Yveltal's back and then used Earthquake. It had no effect on Yveltal due to him being a Flying type. Ganondorf didn't have any idea why it didn't damage his opponent at all. He made the assumption that all of his Pokémon moves would do nothing, so he resorted to another method that was more traditional for him.

He took out one of his twin swords and stabbed them into Yveltal's back.

Yveltal died instantly and fell down to the ground. As soon as him and Ganondorf hit the ground, everyone that had been turned to stone turned back to normal.

Link had absolutely no idea where he was. He was currently sitting on the ground in a forest clearing, completely devastated.
He then heard a voice. Whoever it was, it sounded like they were saying his name.
The Totodile got to his feet and looked around, then walked to the edge of the clearing, only to leap back as Zelda flew up to him, then hugged him.
"I've been looking all over for you!"

Link hesitated, then hugged her back for as long as he thought was necessary, then he stepped back and looked up at her.
"I understand that you have questions. You may resent me for what happened in the future, but will you hear what I have to say?"

Link nodded, overjoyed that Zelda was still alive.
"I didn't want to work with Ganondorf initially. I had no choice. He had Yveltal possess me with Dark Matter, I broke free of course, in the end, but by then it was already too late."
"Zelda...Did you really mean what you said?"
"When?"
"Just before you sent me back in time?"
"I said something to you? What was it?"
"...That….That you…."
Link took a deep breath
"Thatyoulovedme."
"I'm sorry. What was that?"

"He said you said you love him." Scor said, suddenly appearing there.

"Scor!" Link shouted.

"What? I helped." Scor said.
"...So, Zelda...uhh...do you love me?"
The Kirlia took a second to answer.
"...You must realize that we were older then."
"But that doesn't matter!"

"What doesn't matter?" Scor asked.

"Scor, this isn't about you." Link responded.
"We can discuss this later." said Zelda as she flew past Link and Scor, then stopped and turned to face them.
"We need to get back to the Guild. Follow me."

When they arrived at the Guild, Link began to have another vision.
- Ganondorf was attacking the Tree of Life, slowly but surely killing it, but yet he looked different, But that wasn't all, he had been consumed by Dark Matter -

When the vision was over, Link began to freak out.

"Link, chill!" Scor said, trying to calm his best friend.

"What did you see in your vision?" asked Alolan Vulpix.
Jigglypuff nodded.
"Yes, Link, whatever you saw in your vision is troubling you greatly."
Link told everyone what he had seen and everyone in the Guild gasped.
Ampharos shook his head.
"Ganondorf attacking the Tree of Life? We must head there at once. Try Force, we head for the Tree of Life!"
Everyone cheered, except Scorbunny, who corrected Ampharos by saying "It's THE Try Force." Everyone raced off to get ready, but Link and Zelda were stopped.
"I believe you two will have to face him by yourselves. I don't know what will happen, but you have us and everyone else in this world wishing for your victory. Good luck."
Link and Zelda nodded, then also raced off to prepare for the long journey ahead.

It had taken a day, but the Guild reached the Tree of Life. Except it appeared to already be dying.
"Ganondorf seems to have already been here. We must hurry!"
Said Ampharos as the group looked up at the decaying Tree.
Then Xerneas appeared, although she wasn't exactly healthy.
"Please….My strength is fading. Link, Zelda, step into this light, and I shall teleport you to the Tree of Life. Our world, and yours, in a way, depends on you, now."

Link and Zelda stepped into the light that had appeared without question and they were gone.

As soon as the two were teleported, the Scarves activated and they Evolved. They began to climb the tree, and were soon on the very top.
Ganondorf was nowhere to be seen.
"...So...About that question I asked."
"What quest...Oh, right...That one.

There was an awkward silence for about three seconds. But it felt more like half an hour to them.
Then, Zelda threw herself forwards and hugged Link.

"Thank you." said Link, not realizing how dumb it made him sound.
Then the Feraligatr hugged her back and the two stayed like that for what felt like forever.
Then the ground started to shake and the top of the Tree grew dark.
…! It's happening! Just like in my vision!
Link stopped hugging Zelda and stepped in front of her, then, with one swift motion, drew the Master Sword. The holy weapon caused the darkness to dissipate as it blazed with holy light.

"What's happening?" Zelda worried.

"I had a vision about this." Link stated. "Something...Something's here."
A red light on the far side of the Tree.

The red light grew brighter, and brighter, until it overcame the light of the Master Sword
- There was a roar.
- Darkness.
- Then the Darkness pulled back enough so Link and Zelda could see what was in front of them.

It was Ganondorf. Only he was now completely corrupted by Dark Matter.

"This is it, Zelda. Are you ready?!" said Link. The Hero of Winds raised the Master Sword and it started to blaze even brighter, then Link was blinded by a flash of golden light.

Zelda now possessed the Bow of Light.
...I never thought I'd see that thing again.
Ganondorf roared and started to walk towards them, stopped, then charged.
At the last moment, the Pokémon summoned flaming swords, Link leapt forwards, and the entire area seemed to explode with light as the two adversaries rammed into each other.
