Aozora-Miyako: Ok… So I have a few things I want to say before you guys read the next chapter. First of all: IF YOU DON'T LIKE THE STORY DON'T READ IT!! I'm ok with people not liking my story; I know I can't please everyone. I got a review and I'm really not happy, but I'm not going to stop writing because one person hates it. Second, I actually hate yaoi, yes a girl hating yaoi what's wrong with that? And what's wrong with two boys getting along? Third, I don't go to school anymore, and am getting some ideas so I hope that I can update more often.
Last thing, again if there's a problem with it, like format or length, whatever, tell me, I can only do my best to correct myself, but don't yell at me.
Anyway, that's what I had to say.

Chapter 29: The Explosion
The group sat silently at 12 Grimmauld Place's kitchen. Only Kreatcher's footsteps could be herd, with a few rants here and there.
"Was that scream his?" said Sirius, breaking the silence.
"Yes, it was."
Everyone stared at the image at the edge of the table, between Remus and Sirius. There was a small magical hologram of Rauru between the two men.
"What do you mean? Do you know what happened?!" questioned Zelda.
"Princess, I urge you to hurry to Hyrule castle. Something dreadful has just happened."
"Why………? What happened? Is father allright?" said Zelda, almost in shock.
Rauru didn't answer. Instead he showed an image of one of the towers exploding.
"Holy--" Shouted Nabooru.
Rauru turned to Harry. "You, with the round glasses." Harry blinked. "If I were, I'd watch my back."
"Huh?!"
Rauru didn't say anything.
"So how're we supposed to get back? Last time, it was those two witches who brought us there," Asked Sirius.
"Simple." Rauru did a few hand movements. At the end he clapped his hands. And the entire group was in the Temple of Time.
"Amazing………" Said Lupin.
"Thank you. That's just one of my inter-dimensional spells."
Every turned around and Rauru was standing in front the swordless pedestal.
oOo
"You think Ryouku infiltrated allright?" asked a low-ranking Gerudo.
"Oh yeah. No doubt. I mean did you see who "carried" him". Said another Gerudo, emphasizing on the "carried."
"Isn't Lady Nabooru gonna be pissed, Miss Aveil?"
"She hasn't been back in 3 months. And besides……… Those castle dwellers need more excitement in their lives."
oOo
"They've seen you're face, how are you going to now?"
"Just watch me Voldy. Remember, I can pull more string than you can now."
Voldemort remembered at the beginning that Ganondorf has broken his wand. He was pissed. He couldn't just walk into Olivander's or Diagon Alley to get a new wand. He contemplated about going to Nocturne Alley, but even that seemed risky.
"By the way, I want you to get me a new wand."
"I'll do what I can."
oOo
"Hmm……… How are we going to get by? If what Nadia says is true, we'll all get caught." Said Hermione, peeking outside.
"This place almost looks like……… a temple." Said Ron, in amazement seeing the Temple of Time.
That's true; Ron was unconscious the last time they were there. Hermione quickly got back into the Temple before anyone could see there were people there. Rauru looked and chuckled a bit at the ragtag group, they were slightly amusing, but he was sure that they would have done the same thing. "By the way-"
Rauru was cut off by another scream, which didn't seem too far. This scared everyone. Was it Gerudo? More commotion to add to the castle incident………they all had the urge to go see what happened, but they were all too scared to go and look.
"Can I have a word with the foreigners?" asked Rauru after a few moments of silence.
Everyone stared at each other. The Hyrule citizens went to the front of the Temple and the other group went to the back.
"Before I say anything to my fellow sages, there are a few things I need to tell you. But before that. I see more visitors are on their way."
At those words, Dumbledore, McGonagall and Impa appeared in the Temple of Time.
"Phew………Nice to be home" said Impa.
"I don't think it's so nice, Impa." said Rauru.
"What do you mean?"
"Impa, I'd like to talk to the foreigners, if you don't mind."
"Huh……… Of-of course not." She said looking around, seeing all the people she knew from Hogwarts.
"What's going on?" asked Impa. Everyone either shrugged or didn't motion anything to her.
"Impa, there was an explosion at the castle." Said Viscen, limping into the Temple of Time.
"Viscen!!" half-shouted Impa, which caught the attention of those in the back. Dumbledore was the first one to come out from the back, followed by McGonagall and Sirius. Impa and Sirius picked him up and brought him to the pedestal where the Spiritual Stones went. Rauru came forward and looked at him. "Impa, I believe you know the spell."
"I actually don't."
Rauru's hands glittered over Viscen's body. "He'll be fine."
"Everyone come here." Rauru motioned the rest of the group to come forward. The whole group came, and Rauru had cast another spell. They now all looked Hyrulian with the Hyrulian clothes that suit them best. Although, Dumbledore's clothes didn't change much.
oOo
Impa was the first to exit the Temple of Time. Aside from the terrible lack of people, everything seemed fine. McGonagall, Sirius, Lupin and Saria were the first to leave. They had decided it was better to leave as two groups instead of one big group. One group was going to go to Lon Lon Ranch and the other was going to Kakariko, Impa's group was heading for Lon Lon Ranch.
When they got to the moat brigde, Talon was there with his carriage waiting for survivors. The group jumped on the carriage and Impa ordered Talon to go, using her position to persuade him.
About two hours later the rest of the group left to go to Kakariko, all but Rauru that is. They had no problems getting there.
oOo
"Kurage!" Shouted Snape.
Link didn't answer. He was just lying on the ground in Dodongo's cavern. Snape had an injury on his shoulder from the explosion. And him having to carry Link was no easy feat either. Snape looked over Link's body. It had some cuts, but nothing too deep. He would easily recover from this. He then stood up himself and make sure nothing else was injured. In the end it was really only his shoulder, and it would heal soon enough anyways. Snape didn't want to think about what had happened at the castle. It was like something possessed Link, and while escaping, it made Link explode, but physically and with power.
One thing bothered Snape……… That man –Ryouku- seemed oddly familiar. It looked like him at a quick glance, but just a bit too short.
He looked at Link once again, and then looked around; this place had many shallow lava pits. He felt as if it were always getting warmer.
oOo
"What was all that commotion?" Asked Anju when Sheik's group had arrived in Kakariko.
"Apparently there was an explosion at the castle." Everyone gave Sheik the well-no-duh look.
"EVERYBODY LISTEN UP!" Shouted Sheik, to get everyone's attention. "I'd like every one to help give shelter to these people!"
No one was going to question Sheik, because somehow, he was related to Impa, but no one trusted Sheik.
In the end, everybody was settled in villagers' houses.
oOo
"I'm sorry Talon, but I think everyone-"
"Don't. It's alright. I trust your word, Lady Impa." Said Talon, somewhat depressed. "I'm sure everyone else got out ok."
Impa felt bad for what she made Talon do.
"Father!" Yelled Malon from outside. "Ingo got out, again!"
"'Ingo?' What kind of name is that?!" snickered Sirius.
"It's just like saying 'what kind of name is 'Sirius?'" Snapped back McGonagall. Sirius put his hands up in defeat.
"Malon, let him go." Said Talon "We don't need him, if he's going to act that way! Oh, Malon can you come in here."
Malon walked into the house. Impa flashed a letter onto Malon's lap as soon as she sat down. Malon read the note.
"You were the last one to see Link-" started Impa.
"Not just, but his friend too!" replied Malon.
"That's not his friend. He's just someone we sent to keep tabs on him." Explained McGonagall.
"Either way, what did he tell you?" continued Impa.
"Nothing much, he dashed off as soon as I told him Ryouku was back. The next thing I knew, I was woken up by his scream."
Impa was shocked. How was it everyone connected to Link could hear him scream, wherever they were. Something just wasn't right.
