Shadow Lordl: well I am back with this story people and I hope that I did not keep you all waiting too long for a n update to the story.

Link: Hey where's Skywing Flame.

*Ear piercing scream is heard*

Link: Never mind

Spyro: Well I hope that what ever is happening will finish because I am just wanting to rest and relax. *looks over at Cynder* and... *falls silent.*

Sparx: *whistles* Well Spyro I can tell that you have your eyes on a certain black dragoness. You have the guts to stand up to evil dragons and giant apes but the question is do you have the guts to tell her what you want to tell her?

Spyro: O_O is it that obvious Sparx?

Sparx: Spyro I've known you for just as long as you've known me. Of course it's that obvious... to me anyways.

*a loud computer screen shattering scream is heard in the darkness of the hall.*

Link: Alright someone really needs to go and get Skywing Flame out of there.

*Everyone pushes Link into the dark hall way as if he had nominated himself for such a rescue mission*

Mysterious person: Your on your own man.

Old Hermit: Beware green clothed lad. for the one garbed in chaos is stronger than you would believe. *mad laughter*

(Link's POV)

Standing there looking at this ice dragon, whom Samus seemed to know, made me feel a little jealous but I held it in and did not let it show or so I hoped.

Standing there looking at the runic marking surrounding the arena like chamber, I was shocked to notice, that the runic writings look like a combination of both Hylian, Sheikah, Chozo, Luminoth, and some that were completely black.

Amazing. I wonder if those races were here all living as one... May hap this planet was like a paradise for them... I thought when suddenly a message came up on the visor of my Power Suit saying

^New Ancient Lore added to data bank... Ancient Lore Translated: We've managed to work together to create a powerful relic that would help our chosen hero's for the time that they are desperately needed, that is till the "Incident" occurred. Everything was going well till a malfunction in the machines caused a massive system failure, which resulted in three things...^

I was wondering what the rest of this Ancient Lore said but that was where it ended as if the rest were hidden somewhere else.

"...very off Rundas... I have a question though." I heard Samus saying so I turned to hear the rest of it.

"How did you become a dragon so fast? Link and I have been going through a transformation for some time now and we can't seem to stop it or reverse it." Samus said

The ice dragon named Rundas turned and looked at Samus just then before saying anything.

"Well, Samus, I was transformed by the Chronicler of this planet... I don't really mind it or anything the only problem I have is the simple fact that I'll have to live here on this planet for the rest of my life. I guess I should be happy for such a peaceful change I just regret the fact that I won't be able to go to interesting and exotic planets on missions. Oh well I always wound up going to the hot places anyways."

Samus seemed to laugh but I was slightly confused about all of this when suddenly he said something that caught my attention.

"AH he's here now... finally. I hope you two are up for a trial of ice because the Ice Spirit is going to test you two to see if you are worthy."

With that Rundas leaped into the air and seemed to slide away on ice that formed beneath his feet.

(Samus' POV)

It was good to see Rundas again but I could tell that Link was jealous despite the fact that he and I were married.

At least he cares. I thought with a wry smile.

I cleared my mind just as a giant armor wearing ice covered creature stomped the floor of the arena.

Seeing this creature I was reminded of something that Link had told me about but I could not, for the life of me, remember.

Shaking my head I took careful aim at the creature with my Arm Cannon and powered up the Ice Spreader and fired it

The creature brought up it's shield and blocked the attack with ease.

I then saw Link rush forwards with his sword glowing with ice energy.

He leaped into the air and came down with a Shield Breaker and shattered teh Ice Spirit's shield with ease.

He jumped back instantly to avoid getting cut in half by the creature's massive sword, at which I was wondering why it had such a sword.

It was at this point that I remembered that Link had his Plasma Arrow Gun.

I looked towards where it was on his side and saw that it was still glowing with the heat of the Plasma Beam, this gave me an idea instantly.

"LINK!" I shouted "Your Plasma Arrow Gun, it's still charged with the Plasma Beam. Let's use a Flaming Ice Spreader on this thing." I said all tis over the comlink we had in our helmets.

Link obliged in drawing the Plasma Arrow Gun and charged it up to full charge and activated the flamethrower augment for it.

I then activated my Ice Spreader, which I altered to fire out a stream of sub zero ice instead of the giant chunk of ice.

We released our respective beam/missile combo's and what was formed was greatly interesting.

Indeed it was a Flaming Ice Spreader that encased the Ice Spirit and caused it to drop the the ground.

At this Link ran towards it with his sword encased in the residual Plasma Beam energy, he leaped into the air and came down with a Helm Splitter that dropped the creature instantly.

We watched as the creature exploded into a flurry of ice particles.

Looking around we were wondering how we were going to get out of this place when a voice echoed out of the air.

" You two have shown that you are indeed the Chosen Hero's. Spyro came through here years ago and defeated the four elemental spirits. He was powerful and would have been worthy had he possessed the Legendary Artifact of the Chozo and the weapons of the Luminoth. The ancient blade of the Hylians, and the forgotten styles of the Sheikah. You two possess all of this and you also battle with the honor and intelligence that is needed for such a Powerful Relic to be useful. The five races were living upon this planet as a united people. They were working on building an item that would be the strongest one to be used by the Chosen, that is until the Incident broke the relic into eleven pieces, however; each of the eleven pieces has two halves one for he-who-holds-the sword of Evil's Bane and one for she-who-wears-the relic of the Chozo. You have earned the first two halves of the eleven pieces of this relic. You will learn more of the Incident as you go on. You must find all of the pieces before the DARK ONES return to this world even now they stir beneath the surface of the earth and even the Shadows resonate with their power. Go... HURRY!..." It's voice died there and a platform appeared in the center of the room.

We got onto the platform and were lifted to the top of the chamber where we were... teleported...back to the Chamber of Trials.

Looking around we noticed that the place had changed the portal we had gone through was no longer there, instead there was fire surging through it.

I then noticed one of thee tablets by that portal was ice blue and had shattered while the other one glowed with fire.

I then looked around at the others and saw much the same thing except for the fact that they went in an order.

"Hmm. Ice, Fire, Electricity, Earth, Machine, Twilight, Phazon, Spirit. What does this all mean. There are now ten pieces to this ultimate upgrade item and we have the first two halves of it. I don't get it something just does not make sense." I said apparently thinking out loud when Link came over.

"Maybe this will help you understand Samus." He said before sending me a translation of something called Ancient Lore.

"So the Hylians, Sheikah, Chozo, and Luminoth all lived upon this planet as a unified people. Then who is this fifth race?" I said and asked at the same time.

As if to answer my question the shadows moved and pooled into something that I never thought would exist in the galaxy ever again.

"An ING!" I growled oddly like a dragon.

"Do not fear Light Hunter. I am not like the other Ing who worked under a hive mind. My name is Mytherias. I am a Sacred Ing, one who does not fall victim to mechanical failures. The fifth race that you wonder about would be us. Though some of thee other Ing fell victim to madness and could not stay with a sane mind unless they fell to being of a hive mind so that they would not have to know the pain of the Incident. I survived and have lived through it but as far as the others go they are quite mad except for a few who have called themselves by a name of light."

I stood there with a snarl on my face that was hidden by my visor and my Arm Cannon raised level with the creatures face and fully charged with a Light Burst.

"No need for that useless weapon Ms. Aran... As for you, Link, your sword will do no good against me. I am a Sacred Ing and light will not harm me and neither will darkness because I am so engulfed in this light. Now you two are wondering what this whole thing is about a powerful upgrade item... well I can honestly say that I do not know anything about it other than this. Ice and Fire, Electric, Earth. Wind of Shadows, Fear of Poison. Machine of Twilight. Spirit of Phazon. These are the places of the eleven pieces find them and you will attain the great gift of the five races." With that the Ing creature vanish but not before I scanned it.

^New Bio Form entry: Sacred Ing: these creatures are mysterious as they are impervious to Light and Darkness weaponry, however; they do show signs of being weak to normal weapons though it is useless to even try and kill one of these as they will just reform as if nothing had happened.^

Great the first Ing and I can't kill it. I thought bitterly.

Grudgingly I removed my Power Suit and sat down on the floor of the Chamber so I could think a little clearer.

I was not worried about my Transformation at the moment due to the simple fact that it was completely stopped from continuing.

Looking up I saw Link remove his Power Suit and did as I had done, he sat down on the floor but facing me.

"Well, Link, what do we do now?" I asked

He looked at me with curiosity in his eyes and I could tell that he was thinking on the same thing I was.

"Ice and fire, Electric, Earth. Those four are right here with these two doors. Wind of Shadows, Fear of Poison. I do not know what that means. Machine of Twilight. That I understand seeing as that portal over there..." I pointed to the one with the robot marching into it, "Has those robots marching into it. I can only surmise that it is both the Machine Portal and the Twilight Portal. As for Spirit of Phazon. I never knew that Phazon could have a Spirit... That is unless you say that Dark Samus would be this Spirit. Even then I'd have a hard time believing it." I said with more questions brewing in my mind.

(Link's POV)

Samus was troubled by this and I could tell.

She was going over all the information we had been given about this powerful upgrade but nothing that would tell us what it did, only the location of each part and half.

I was wondering about all of this as well when a black dragoness walked up behind us.

"Wind of Shadows. Fear of Poison... That easily makes sense as the Forgotten temple of Wind, Forbidden palace of Shadows, Sunken ruins of Fear, and lastly the desolate village of Poison. All of these places I know of but I've never been to them. All but the wind were despised because they had nothing to do with the Light, only darkness and evil. Yet here I am wielding all of those and no one seems to be afraid of it."

I turned to see Cynder sitting on the ground in the center of the room just staring in to a pool of shimmering blue liquid.

"Cynder. What are you doing here?" I asked know well that she had come here before we stepped through the Chroniclers portal.

"I'm here to find out the location of those four places. I've been trying to find them so that I could get the truth about my own abilities, despite the fact that I was corrupted by Malefor's darkness and was granted these powers as his servant." She shivered at that before she got to her feet and left the chamber by walking towards a fair sized oak door that had a blue glow coming from it.

I was suddenly surrounded by more questions than I wanted to be and yet they needed an answer that we could not get.

I got to my feet walked over to the fire portal and said, "We're not going to get anything done sitting around her now are we Samus?"

Samus looked up from where she was sitting before getting to her feet.

She's still deep in thought. I thought before activating my Power Suit.

She activated hers and we went through the fire portal and found ourselves in a lava filled chamber that registered as Ultra Heated.

Alright guys here's another chapter for you all to read and enjoy.

* A loud hollering noise is heard down the darkened hall along with the echoing clang of steel hitting stone.*

Shadow Lordl: Well it seems that Link has found his way into the haunting nightmare that is Chaos Samus' Torture chamber.

Dark tone voice: DIE HERO OF LIGHT AND TWILIGHT!

suddenly the walls near the dark hall break and Link comes flying through the air only to skid on the ground to a halt near the other wall.

Chaos Samus jumps from the dust cloud and slams her Arm Cannon into Link's chest and charges up a pure Chaotic Var Beam.

Shadow Lordl: 0_0 NOT GOOD! *takes off running so fast that the cartoon dust cloud image of him lingers behind.*

Review please.
