Chapter 2.

Just as Link entered Faron Woods, 3 Twilight Knights dropped from the sky.

"Crap," thought Link, "without Midna here, I'm toast."

From nowhere, a light spirit swooped in a wiped out the Knights.

"Fear not, ye who are changed, for I am the spirit of Time. You have come seeking the Master Sword to…oh…not to change yourself, but to help someone that you care for? For this, I cannot deny thee the Master Sword." Said the spirit.

And with that, the spirit's light seemed to converge on itself, twisting and folding until all that was left was a sword and sheath.

Link howled loudly, and some say his voice could be heard in Kakariko Gorge as if he was right next to you.

Far away, a tear rolled down Zelda's cheek. Link had taken too long, and there was no way to save Midna. Unless…

She turned to Midna with a determined look in her eye.

"No, Your Majesty, don't…not for me." Squeaked Midna.

"I'm so sorry," said Zelda, "tell Link that he has to stop Zant. Because if he doesn't, no one will."

And, with that, Zelda took one of Midna's little hands in hers, and a bright glow lit the room.

Link was about 2 kilometers away from the Castle when he saw the glow from the tallest tower.

"What's that?" he wondered.

Just outside the room, he was hit with a blast of light. When he stood up, he was himself again. Ad there was a strange shadow crystal in his hand. He pushed open the door, and he found Midna sitting, curled up in a ball on the bed, crying.

"Midna?" he asked hoarsely.

"She gave it all up to save me," she sobbed, "she got rid of everything. She's gone Link."

OOOOOh
