((A/N: Okay, so... if you want a map of the place, I'll be uploading it onto my DA. Well, I will after next chapter... sometime soon. I'll hand out my Deviant Art address some other time. You'll be able to see all my junk there, too, in case you don't wanna look here. I dunno what makes such a difference, but anyways, R&R.))
Link walked out of the cell and to the door that led out of the tower, but it was locked. "What's wrong with you?" Keira asked.
"It's locked..." Link said. "We need to go find a key."
"Pfft. Where? It could be anywhere in this tower," Keira exclaimed. Keira sat down, cross-legged. "This tower is so stupid."
Link sighed, "Well, it's not upstairs. I already checked up there. So it has to be downstairs, and there is only one floor." Link threw the map at Keira so he could look. Keira grinned. "So, are you gonna come?"
"No," Keira said, "Just hurry up and go get it." Link stared at him, and the kid just hand-motioned him to leave. Link started to walk down the stairs.
He began thinking, 'Who is that kid, anyway? Why is he here? Why does he think he can boss him around?' Link had no clue, really. Then again, all he has to do is get him out of the dungeon, and he is home free to do as he pleases, which is to stop Ganondorf.
The basement was abandoned. The Moblins must have all left. That's good news for him. And what better news, was that he found a key. Suddenly, a steel door slammed down, blocking the stairs. All four doors opened up, and monsters came out. There was a total of 5 Dinolfos out in the open. They surrounded Link. He looked at each one of them, and pulled out his sword.
First, he rolled past two of the monsters, and cut at one of them, slicing their leg off. He stood up and ran down the circular hallway, hoping he would be fast enough to get to the Dinolfos and ambush them. But one he got to some, they were ambushing him instead. "Why didn't I see that coming...?" Link asked himself. The two in front of him jumped towards him, so he sliced at both of their chests, blood spattering everywhere. They fell dead, and then the other two wobbled over, and began spitting fire at Link.
Link jumped back, and pulled out his Longshot. He shot it towards one of the Dinolfos, and dragged it towards Link. Right when the enemy had gotten to Link, he stabbed his sword right up through his jaw, killing the beast instantly. Link pulled his sword out and kicked the monster down, and stared at the last one. Link pulled out his Bow, and shot an Ice Arrow at the fleeing beast. However, it didn't get away. It froze instantly. Link stepped over to the Dinolfos, and sliced the frozen head off. "Heh... he's definitely gonna feel that tomorrow morning..." Link said to himself.
The steel door opened, letting Link roam free. He ran up the stairs and saw Keira, who looked a bit displeased. "Did you find that key? Because it looks to me that you just went and became a serial killer," he said. Link ignored him and unlocked the door. Keira smiled, "Finally! We can leave!" Keira ran out into the main hall and to the doors of the Main Hall. Link stepped out quietly and looked at the doors at the opposite side. The doors had a familiar lock on them.
"Darunia...?" Link said to himself.
"Hey! You gonna come?" Keira asked.
Link shook his head, "I have to find Darunia. I'm not gonna leave him behind." Out of the corner of his eye, he spotted a treasure chest. It was behind the large staircase. He walked over to it and opened it up. There was a key inside. He blinked and then figured it was for the other tower. "You can leave if you want, but I still have a tower to explore," Link said, walking over to the other tower.
"But I... I helped you out! I demand you come with me!" Keira screamed. Link unlocked the door and walked in. "Fine! I'll... just wait here..."
Link rolled his eyes. On the first floor, all the prison doors had broken locks. He ran up to the second floor, and found two Skulltulas. Link blinked, and pulled out his bow. He shot the two down and then went inside the door they were covering over. He opened it and saw a chest. He smiled and jumped in, but then he fell down the floor.
Link grunted, getting up. He was locked up in another cell. And it looked like he was in the basement. He kicked open the door and saw another treasure chest. He opened it up and inside was a Compass. He smiled. He looked at his map now, with the compass right next to it, and saw that there were two chests remaining. The one he had seen and one at the top of the tower.
Link started running up the stairs again and once he got to the floor he was at before, he glanced inside the room with the hole in the floor. But he couldn't see the hole. "Dammit... I need the Lens of Truth..." he mumbled. Then he blinked. The chest was wooden, so he could Longshot over the hole. Even though, it was a small gap. He shrugged, and did so. He got over just like he thought. And inside the chest was a... key.
He looked back and saw a wooden plaque up on the wall, and Longshot back over. Then he ran up to the top floor.
Once at the top floor, the steel door came down to block the stairway again. Link looked around the room, and then saw he was ambushed by a dozen or so of Moblins. Link began to sweat. He pulled out his sword, and the Moblins charged him. Link threw his sword at one of the Moblins, piercing its neck. Then, he pulled out his bow quickly and shot as many of the Moblins as he could, but he didn't shoot them all in time. One of the beasts hit him in the chest with a club, knocking the wind out of Link. he looked up at the six remaining Moblins, wondering how he'd get past the ugly monsters.
He set his feet up against the wall and then pushed himself forward, passing them all and pulling his sword out from the corpse. He stood up, and spat out some blood that came up from the hit he received. He then readied his sword and shield and jumped at them. He cut one's head off, and on another he slashed upwards on its chest. One of the Moblins smacked his back with their clubs, and Link fell to the ground. One of the beasts was about to slam a club on his head, but Link shot his Longshot up on the ceiling. Surprisingly, it was metal grating. Link then unhooked the Longshot and fell down. On his way, he thrust his sword into one of the beasts, and kicked two other ones.
Pulling out his sword, he quickly slit throats of the last three.
The door opened and revealed the stairs, but he still needed his prize. He walked into each of the jail cells, looking for the key that will lead him into the big doors. He found it in a chest and looked at the golden hue. He hadn't seen it in so long. It was almost reminiscing back to the days when he scaled the Temples to search for the sages, or the times when he traveled Termina to save the land from the moon. Either way, now he was in another big adventure, it seemed, and it was time that he saved Hyrule.
He ran back down the stairs and once he was in the main hall, Keira called out, "Hey! Let's go now, alright?" Link shook his head, as he walked up the grand staircase to the door that stood tall with the big golden lock on it. Link put the key inside and the lock fell down. The door opened slightly and Keira ran up to him. "What are you doing?"
"Saving my brother," Link simply said, and walked into the room.
