Part One: The Fifth Of One
Chapter 2: A Dark Truth
Zelda leads Link around Hyrule Castle to the shrine where the Four Sword is kept.
"What's so special about today that you brought me here for? I've been here hundreds of times before with my father" Link asks
"Well nothing except for the fact that the six maidens and I are going to reinforce the seal on the Four Sword." Zelda replies
"Oh."
"Princess" a voice calls out from nowhere in particular
"Yes?" Zelda calls out in answer.
Then turning to Link she says
"Link, wait here please."
"Green." Link says
"What?"
"Never mind."
"Shall we begin?" the voice calls out.
"Yes we shall." Zelda replies.
Six girls of Zelda's age in varying colors appear surrounding the Four Sword.
"Wow. The Shrine Maidens they're pretty." Link thinks aloud. Then seeing Zelda glance at him adds "Epically the Princess."
Zelda calls out to the Shrine Maidens to lend their powers to her so she can reinforce the seal.
"Maidens lend me your Power to...!"
Suddenly the ground shakes and the four elements disappear and their respective pillars fall over.
"AAAAHHH!" Link yells in fright as a pillar almost crushes him.
A voice emanates from the heavens.
"Hihihi! Good luck trying to seal the sword without the Maidens."
The six Maidens start to float in the air and then a crystal forms around each of them.
"Waaahhh!" the six Maidens Scream in Terror
The Maidens crystal 'cages' change color matching the color of the respective Maiden's dress. Then they disappear, leaving a grey-black haze in the air.
"Zelda!" Link calls out unable to see her through the haze.
"Yes?" Zelda replies.
"What should we do?" Link asks.
Ummm... I don't know Link." Zelda answers.
"Green." Link corrects Zelda.
"Whaaa...?" Zelda says.
"Green. Call me Green." Link {"Ehhemm" Link, Err... Green grunts at me} Green states
"What are you thinking about doing?" then seeing Li... Green's expression, says
"No don't let someone else be the hero. Just because all of your ancestors chose to battle evil doesn't mean that you have to do the same!"
"I must!" Green states.
"NO LINK!" Zelda yells commandingly.
"..." (Green)
"Fine." Zelda says giving in. "But don't do anything stupid!"
Link attempts to find the pedestal in the haze. Then realizing that he backed into it turns around, stands, and grasps the Four Sword feeling its power coarse through him. Pulls the sword out and holds it above his head feeling his counterparts appear.
"Oh Green it is soooo good to finally see you again: Red says happily picking Green up in a huge hug.
"Hey Zelda Want to see a Real hero..." Blue starts and finishes differently then he wanted to noticing that Green is standing next to her.
"Why did you pull the Four Sword?" Blue asks.
"Well the shrine maidens have been stolen away by someone' Zelda says almost to herself.
"The tales say that Gufuu stole away the six maidens and my great-grandma and you guys saved them all"
"That is the truth Princess," Vio says. "It seems that he has come back to exact his revenge on us all."
