There he was, back to the wall, with a sword against his neck; the dark eyes in front of him were full of hatred and excitement. Whether or not Pipit was there or not, Link couldn't let himself be defeated: his eyes darted around the room looking for that pathetic sword that was split into pieces by the might of Link's force. He found the handle nearby, a short, jagged piece of the blade still connected, but how would he get to it; an idea came to him: he smiled slightly as he shoved his knee as hard as he could in between Pipit's legs, earning him a howl of pain as Pipit fell to the floor hunched over. Link bolted to the blade handle and grabbed it; he took the jagged blade and shoved it straight through one of Pipit's hands who immediately screamed. Link looked into his eyes, which were still full of Ghirahim,
"I don't care who you take form of; I will defeat you every single time, haven't you learned that by now?"
"The boy inside… he is in pain…" Ghirahim laughed as he let go of the mind and body of Pipit, leaving just a confused boy with a serious wound.
After taking Pipit to the spring out back, Link had to remove the blade from his hand. Once removed, he rinsed the hand with the sacred water in that one particular spot and he watched as the wound slowly began to heal itself. Soon the skin was smooth, with only a faint scar mark to tell of the encounter.
"Is that better?"
"Much." Pipit looked up at Link, who was kneeling in front of him, mostly hovering over his legs. Pipit brought his legs as together as they would go, so that their legs were completely against each other and so that Link was essentially sitting on Pipit's right leg. "I can't even begin to tell you what that was like; I was there, but I wasn't, and I had to watch_"
"It's okay, I know you couldn't stop him, he's very powerful and_"
"Let's just go home shall we?"
"Right, well a bunch of us came looking for you, and we have to go meet back with them first. Are you sure you're alright?"
"Yeah, I'm fine," Pipit responded very distantly and absently.
