Triforce Against Magic

A/N: {blabla} = telepathic talking

Dawn Ishida: Wow! That really means a lot! By the way: 'Yuuki', I dunno if it's Link's real last name but I put it there cuz its means 'courage', and well, Link has the Triforce of courage so it fits very well. And I will check out your stories!

Chapter 23: In my Wildest Dreams Pt.2

Blood was running down his arm. Link was barely breathing. Small puffs, small gasps out of his body. Snape and Impa, carrying Link in the stretcher, ran to the Hospital Wing, followed by Dumbledore and McGonagall. Sheik and Dalnia were in front of the group to open the doors for them when they got there. The cut from Shadow Link was incredibly deep. Judging by Link's face, he was having very hard time breathing. The painful expression he was on made every one cry, except for Snape, but Snape was hardly upset. Dumbledore wasn't exactly crying, but everyone knew he was upset too.

Upon arriving in the ward, Dalnia and Sheik slammed opened the doors, and ran towards Madame Pomfrey's office. Having heard this, she stomped out of her office. Upon seeing the bloodied up Link, she made a bed right away. Impa and Snape gently put link on the bed, where he yelled in pain.

Surrounded by a light all around, and flowers only found in the Kokiri Forest, a teenage boy with shoulder length blond hair was sitting in a ball-like position. He was crying, the tears were dropping on his forest green tunic. He didn't have his hat, or his gauntlets. He didn't have his the white shirt he normally wore underneath (yes he has the pants on).

"Rinku-san." A voice called out to him.

"I'm sorry, Rauru-san, I couldn't live up to your standards."

"Rinku-san?" it called out again.

Link felt a hand touch his shoulder.

Madame Pomfrey stripped Link of his Quidditch clothes. The blood was squirting out and didn't seem to slow down. She asked Sheik to hold Link in a sitting position. Sheik did as he was told, and Madame Pomfrey started to chant something and Link's cuts were glowing, but nothing happened, which was to be expected.

Every one was disappointed. Now that Dumbledore knew of Link's origins, being Hylian, Dumbledore thought that the spell might actually not work. Impa, Sheik, and Dalnia knew the spell wouldn't work. The only thing that would heal Link right now is Link himself, and no spell.

"Rinku-san, Why do you not look at me?" said the calm voice of a middle-aged man.

Link did not answer. The hand left the shoulder, and Link felt a few pats on the head. The man moved around to be in front of Link. He knelled down. He took his right hand and put it on Link's chin and lifted it up. Link did a weird type of gasp, which was a mix of heavy breathing and a sob. This man looked exactly like Link, but an older version.

"Who......... Who are you?" asked Link. "I fell like I should know you."

"If I was alive, yes, you would know me for I am your Father."

In the Chamber of Sages, the light representing the Triforce of courage had broken like glass, only keeping the dimmest of light. Rauru and Ruto both gasped. Ruto sank to the floor, nearly covering the Blue Circle, with the Water Temple Seal on it. Rauru was wide-eyed, which he did not do often.

{Link? Link, can you hear me?} Said Rauru telepathically.

He received no answer. Ruto started to cry. A fountain of tears had never stopped from the Zora's eyes.

"I......... I can't......... Believe he's........." She couldn't bring herself to say the word "gone" or "dead."

"........." Rauru looked down at the watery floor of the chamber of Sages. "Ruto-san, his light is still dim, but not gone. Don't worry, Link may live."

"But......... but......... At that place......... Nothing worked on us. No potions, no magic, nothing. How can you say he's going to live! Link could've done this to himself, for all we know!—"

"Ruto-san!" interrupted Rauru. "We would have know if Link-san had done this to himself. Just throwing the Triforce of Courage away like, doesn't seem like Link's style."

"........."

"You know I am right, Ruto-san!"

==WHY NOT?! LINK IS MY CHILDHOOD FRIEND!!! I SHOULD HAVE THE FIRST RIGHT TO SEE HIM!!!! WHY? WHY ARE YOU AND IMPA-SAN DOING THIS TO ME?!?!==

==Saria-san, If......... If it was me who said that to Impa, she would have held you back as well.== said Zelda saddened by Link's injury.

==PLEASE!!! Please......... Let me see him.........==

==As much as I want to, I can't. And besides, even if Impa had said nothing to me, I would have held you back anyways.==

==Why.........?== Saria started to cry on Zelda's shoulder. After about half an hour, Saria had cried herself to sleep.

At supper, the Great Hall was exceptionally quiet. Not many people were talking, because of the incident. Even the staff table was quiet. Impa was not at dinner. Dumbledore had figured out why. Malfoy snickered every now and then. Nadia was getting extremely pissed off at Malfoy. She stood up and slapped Malfoy, and walked away.

She wondered around the castle aimlessly. She had so many things on her mind. She eventually wound up at the Hospital wing. She stood and leaned on the door and looked at the unconscious and bloody Link. She sighed. She stood there for quite a while.

"Excuse me? Can I help you?"

Nadia got off of her cloud and looked around to find Madam Pomfrey behind her. Nadia looked at Link.

"He......... He's a close friend......... It hurts......... to see him like that. Where we come from, he's a swordsman. It's his living. Seeing him like this pains me even more than if it were one of my tribe members." Explained Nabooru.

"Yes, Mrs. Kage said something quite similar earlier."

"I wish there was something I could do......... I feel so useless." And with that Nadia left. She went back to the Slytherin Common room.

"What's up with this kid and his friends........."

"Father.........?"

"Yes."

"It- It- It can't be!—You're supposed to be dead."

"I am. My soul wanders around the earth over time." He started. "The only way I could speak with you, is like this, through dreams. But not just any dream, a dream where the death and living world meet. Where we currently are."

"So......... Am I that close to death?"

"Any later and you would be joining me the world of the dead." He was becoming more serious.

"........." Link had so many questions he wanted to ask his so-called father. "Who are you?"

"I am Miraiko Yuuki, I used to be the Captain of the King's army. Just as Viscen is now."

Link stood up and turned around. His back was facing Miraiko. ==I can't......... I can't believe it. I won't believe it!==

"I am sorry, Link, I don't speak the ancient language."

Link had been unconscious for over a week. His wound was healing fast but still at the unconscious point. Impa had not taught a class that week. She only made them re-copy chapters from their books. The others could not pull themselves to work in class, which cause a lot of point reductions in Slytherin, Hufflepuff, and Ravenclaw.

"I want you all to finish chapter 5 by next class." Said Impa, coldly to her first year class.

They all stood up and walked out of the class, not saying a word. They were all scared Impa was going to bite their heads off. When they all exited, there was one student remaining at her place. She was lying on her desk, her face in her arms, only seeing her forest green eyes.

==Saria-san.........==

==Why?== she asked, in a sobering whisper.

==I'm sorry, Saria-san, but I can't allow you see him.==

==I should have the right.........==

==.........==

Saria started crying. She had not seen or heard from her childhood friend since the accident. Impa hugged her. Saria eventually fell asleep on Impa's shoulder. Impa picked her up and Impa went into her quarters, which is connected to her office, and placed Saria on her bed.

It was last class so neither of them had to hurry and get ready. Impa had not joined the staff at suppertime for the whole week Link was unconscious. She didn't plan on going that night either. She would stay in her office and corrected some papers.

At 8 p.m. someone knocked on her door.

"Come in." she said never looking up towards the door.

"Professor, my students are worried about two of my students." Said the squeaky voice of Flitwick.

"Shh!" said Impa putting her index finger on her lips. She pointed towards the bed with her thumb. "Sara had cried in front of me at the end of class. She cried herself to sleep. I let her sleep in my bed, for now."

"Do you know something I don't?"

"Sara and Link are childhood friends. Zelda Hiruke and I are keeping her back. We're scared that she will be even more heartbroken than she already is." Explained Impa putting her quill down.

"If there is a problem, she should come see her Head of House, which is me." Said Flitwick, getting pissed.

"Professor, I assure you, everything is fine."

Dumbledore entered the Hospital Wing. He was upset, but he didn't it let it show much. He walked up to Link's bed. He took a nearby chair and sat down. Madam Pomfrey came out of her office with a bowl a cloth.

"How is he, Pompom?"

She unbandanged Link, and cleaned up the just about healed wound. "Something's not right,........." she said.

"What do you mean?" said a voice in the background. They both turned and saw Dalnia at the door. "Is brother all right?"

"It's weird. His wound is just about healed, at the point he should be awake, but he's not awake. This is worrying me much. If he doesn't wake up by tomorrow, I may have to send a note to St-Mungus' Hospital to send a doctor over."

=0=0=0=

"Link-san, what's wrong?"

"I......... I'm scared........."

"Of what?" asked Miraiko, very curiously.

"Waking up and finding Shadow Link there."

"Hahahahahahaha! Link there's a very slim chance of that. Give you courage in waking up. You wound is practically healed, and you're still out cold."

"But......... It could be........." said Link, holding the hilt of his sword. It was unsheathed since Miraiko had shown up.

SLAP!!!

"Sorry, Link, but from what I've judged, you've NEVER thought twice about something! Why does this have anything different." Link opened his mouth to speak but Miraiko was faster. "There are two things that make you have much more courage than anyone else. One," Miraiko. Link's left hand, the one with the two symbols of courage. "You own the Evil Blade, the Master Sword. I'd never even thought I'd see it with my own two eyes. Link, this is amazing! Two: You own the Triforce of Courage. I didn't think my son would be the one to have it. Something so symbolic of courage. Link. Take these two treasured tools and wake up. If you won't do it for me, do it for your friend who's been crying all this time, and that never even got a chance to see you."

"Saria......... You're right! Saria, I own that much to her!" said Link.

"Link, let me give you something." Miraiko added a small jewel to Link's Sheikah earrings.

"What's this?" asked link.

"When you're in danger and you need extra power, this jewel will aid you."

"Thank you, Father!"

Blue eyes opened slowly. Dumbledore and Madame Pomfrey were both relieved that Link had finally woken up.

"Well, hello there!" said Madame Pomfrey, cheerfully, for once.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Kurage!" said Dumbledore.

Link stared at the ceiling, smiled faintly and fell back to sleep.

'I'm glad that I'm in a safe place!' thought Link.

A-M: THERE! ANOHER CHAPPIE DONE!

Maat: Yes it's about time, too.

A-M: Heh heh! You do have a point. I did start this while I got a burst of inspiration like a month ago. So, this chapter has been started like a month ago and finished now.
