Hey everyone! Sorry the chapters are a little short, I promise the next one will be longer, how was the summery for the sequel? Did you like it? Let me know in reviews, how am I suppost to know if you like my story if you don't review?
Oh ya! I changed my mind about something, Lee and Kari are 15, not almost 15 like it says in one of the earlier chapters.
Anyway, one with the story! Read and review! Anime Wildfire
Lee and Kari slipped inside the stable, being careful not to wake anyone; they slipped over to Comet's stall. He was sleeping, but as soon as Kari stroked him and gently spoke to him in Hylian he woke up. (in this story Hylian and English are two different languages.)
Lee grabbed a bridal and climbed onto Comet's bare back, Kari led Comet out of the stable and checked that no one was around before swinging up behind Lee.
Lee steered Comet towards the gate before flicking the reins and taking off.
Inside the castle, Link and Zelda were awake, Zelda was thinking,
"You think we're being to hard on Lee?" She said nervously, Link shook his head, suddenly a guard banged on the door.
"Your highness! Prince Lee and Kakari are gone! There rooms are empty!"
"What! Where could they be going!" Zelda shrieked, she continued pacing around the room.
Link looked out the window.
"There they are." he said, pointing to Lee and Kari on Comet as he raced through Hyrule field.
"We have to go after them! There's an iron knuckle out there!" the guard said, (for any of you who haven't fought those, they are very difficult.)
"What! There's an iron knuckle out there!" Link said; the guard nodded.
"Yes sir, there's an iron knuckle out there."
"If Lee and Kari met that thing, they'd be dead in no time." Link said, quickly he and Zelda rushed to the stable.
Lee and Kari, meanwhile, were quite far away from the castle; by the time they stopped they were by the gates of Lake Hylia.
"I think we got away unnoticed." Lee muttered, flopping back on the grass, Kari grinned and sat down next to him.
"Yeah, but we still had better be careful, you never know what's out here."
As soon as she said that, a loud booming filled the air, Lee sat up and he and Kari turned around.
Smashing its way towards the gate was the iron knuckle!
"L-lee, w-what is that t-thing?" Kari stuttered, staring at the iron knuckle.
"I don't know, but get out of here before it gets closer!" Lee said, drawing his sword,
"No way! I'm not leaving you here alone to deal with that thing!" Kari said, she grabbed her bow and shot an arrow at it. The arrow hit it's rock hard armor and bounced off.
"Ok, so arrows have no effect, try something else!" Lee said as the iron knuckle smashed the gate,
Lee jumped in front of Kari and used his shield to block them.
"What exactly do you want me to try?" Kari said, ducking out from behind the shield.
"I don't know; that's why I said try something else!" Lee said as the iron knuckle came closer.
"Uh, um… I don't know! You try hitting it with your sword, or use it to protect me and it'll get more powerful!" Kari said, ducking once more behind Lee's shield as the iron knuckle smashed a tree.
"Ok, I'll try that, let's just pray that thing is either really slow or has bad aim!" Lee said, charging forward.
"Or let's hope it's both!" Kari called after him, covering her face as it smashed another tree.
"Kari hide somewhere!" Lee shouted, facing the iron knuckle, the IR swung it's sword and brought it down at Lee, but thanks to the quick reflexes Lee inherited from his father, he was able to roll to the side and slash it a few times when it's sword got caught in the ground.
Kari watched anxiously from behind the tree, biting her lip as the IR tried to hit Lee again, only succeeding in getting it's sword caught again, Lee jumped up and slashed at it a few more times. (IR- iron knuckle)
The IR roared and pulled its sword out of the ground, now more determined than ever to kill Lee.
Lee dodged again and tried to swipe at it, but the IR turned suddenly and slashed at him, and Lee had to duck behind his shield to avoid getting hit, the blow met his shield and sent him fly next to where Kari was hiding.
"Lee are you ok?" she asked anxiously as he picked himself off the ground.
"Yeah, I'm fine." Lee said, charging again into battle.
Zelda and Link meanwhile, along with a few guards, were riding through Hyrule field.
" I don't see them or the iron knuckle anywhere." Zelda said, glancing around, Link stood up in the saddle.
"There they are." Link said, he pointed towards lake Hylia, where a figure had just been thrown back by a large metal object.
"Let's hurry." Link said, nudging his horse into a gallop.
The IR let out another roar as Lee swiped it, Lee jumped back just as the iron knuckles armor fell off. It raised its sword and charged at Lee, who grimaced and started to duck and block with his shield as the iron knuckle swiped at him repeatedly.
The iron knuckle finally backed Lee up against a tree, it swung its sword and hit the tree, and Lee winced at the blade two inches next to his face. But Kari's voice quickly brought him back to reality,
"Lee! Look out!" she shouted, the iron knuckle, distracted by her voice as well, swung its sword at Kari.
"NO!" Lee shouted; he jumped in front of Kari as the iron knuckle swung its sword, luckily it only grazed his shoulder, and blood started to flow.
Lee groaned in pain and started to slide to his knees, Kari gasped and grabbed his arm just as the iron knuckle raised its sword…
Clang! Lee's sword connected with the iron knuckle's, blocking them both. Breathing hard, he stood up and stepped in front of Kari.
"I won't let you hurt her." he said, the sword suddenly began to glow blue, and there was a new fire in Lee's eyes as braced himself and slowly, pushed the iron knuckle away from Kari.
Kari stood there; a little shocked, until Lee shouted
"Kari! Hide quickly!" Kari nodded and glanced around,
"There's only one problem, there's no where to hide!" Kari said, biting her lip as she watched Lee struggle to hold the iron knuckle back until she was safe.
"There's gotta be something you can hide behind!" Lee shouted back, the iron knuckle suddenly pushed Lee back, Lee fell back with a thud as the iron knuckle accidentally hit a piece of its armor, sending it flying at Kari.
Kari gasped and ducked, the armor missed her and hit the tree; Kari straightened up in time to see the iron knuckle heading straight for her.
Kari winced and ducked as the IR swung its sword at her, then it began to repeatedly swing at her, Kari jumped, ducked, rolled and back flipped to avoid becoming Swiss cheese.
Lee jumped to his feet and raced over, blocking Kari with his sword as the iron knuckle swung at her again.
"Kari… you gotta get out of here." Lee said, gritting his teeth as the IR pushed harder.
" I don't want to leave you." Kari said, placing her hand on his shoulder, Lee didn't reply, he just gritted his teeth and pushed harder.
The iron knuckle suddenly pushed both Lee and Kari back; they landed three feet away with a Thud!
The iron knuckle advanced slowly towards them; slowly it raised its sword…
Lee and Kari stood up, Lee tried to block Kari, and the iron knuckle was about to bring its sword down when…
WHAM! Something hit the iron knuckle from the side, it staggered to the side, it's sword flashed by Lee and Kari as it fell to the ground, Lee and Kari turned to see Comet there, he had kicked the IR and saved their lives.
Lee quickly grabbed his sword and stuck it through the iron knuckle; it slumped to the ground and disappeared.
Lee breathed a sigh of relief and sheathed his sword; he turned to face Kari.
She was leaning against a tree; she looked up and slowly staggered toward him. Falling against him, as she got close, Lee caught her and helped her stand up.
"Kari? What's the matter? Are you ok?" Lee asked, Kari didn't reply, instead she stood against Lee and leaned over.
"Lee…" she whispered into his ear before she pushed a piece of his hair back, Lee looked puzzled.
Kari leaned forward and kissed Lee, and then she pulled away, smiling weakly. (This whole time he is standing there like an idiot.)
"I love you…" she whispered in his ear before she collapsed against him and began sliding to the ground. Lee caught her and held her while saying.
"Kari? Kari!" Lee felt something warm on his hand, he leaned Kari against him shoulder and looked at his hand. What he saw shocked him.
His hand was soaked in blood; Lee quickly turned Kari over and saw a long slash then ran from her right shoulder to her left side.
"Kari, no!" Lee cried, he turned her back over and gently shook her.
"Kari! Kari!" she didn't move, tears began to form in Lee's eyes, he laid Kari on the ground and bent over her body, all the time crying.
"Lee! Lee!" shouted a voice, Lee looked up to see Link and Zelda riding closer, they slipped off their horses and started to approach him, stopping when they saw Kari's lifeless body.
