Thanks for reading the third chapter. Sorry it's short!
"Zelda what's the problem?" Link asked.
"They're coming," she answered.
"How many?" Link asked.
"Twenty to one hundred," she answered. Link nodded and Zelda ran out the door.
"Mido, we have to go. Be ready to fight," Link said while scurrying around collecting things.
They went to the stables and saddled Link's horse. They got on and rode off to Hyrule field. Mido realized Link was sweating. They went over a small hill and ended up looking into an army of lizard creatures. They had long tails and were equipped with a sword, shield, and armor.
"W-what are those?" Mido stuttered.
"Lizalfos," Link answered. "Mido, as soon as I tell you to go, I want you to run back into my house and wait."
"O.K, but why are you fighting the Lizalfos and not the soldiers?" Mido asked.
"There were only twenty soldiers left since most of them were killed in a battle. I didn't want them to die since there is little chance of victory," Link answered.
Link pulled out his bow and loaded an arrow. He shot at one of the lizards and hit him in the neck. The other Lizalfos charged rapidly at Link and Mido. Link quickly shot two others and then pulled out his sword and shield. Mido got off Epona and unsheathed his sword and shield. Link quickly blocked the first slash from one Lizard and jabbed him in the stomach, killing him. Link then charged into the sea of Lizalfos. Mido stood with fear as Lizalfos were being killed. Suddenly two came to attack Mido. He slashed, but the Lizalfo blocked it. Mido jumped over the lizard and stabbed it in the back, killing it. He pulled out his slingshot and shot the other Lizalfo is its neck. It started to walk around, screaming in pain. Mido quickly slashed the monster. Mido glanced over and saw Link fighting two Lizalfos. Mido stabbed one in the back and then slashed the other. Link quickly claw shot up to a tree.
"Mido, go back to the castle and wait!" Link screamed.
Mido hesitated and then sped back to the castle.

The Lizalfos started to climb the tree. Link shot two down with the bow. One reached up and grabbed Link's leg. He started to swing his sword, but fell into the sea of enemies. Link was blocking and attacking pretty well. He was on the ground and used his feet to attack too. He saw Lizalfos on every
side. Link looked up at an attacking Lizalfo. Suddenly a sharp pained flashed through his body. He saw blood coming out of his right shoulder. He was losing his sight and getting dizzy. The Lizalfos kicked and shoved him until he was unconscious. They snickered and sneered as they tied Link to a tree.
Link slowly awoke to the sound of screaming. He looked up and saw about twenty figures charging toward him. The Lizalfos were charging back. The figures were now close to Link and he could make out Mido leading twenty Hyrule soldiers and the other apprentices. Mido slashed the first Lizalfo and Surapachi stabbed another. The Lizalfos overflowed into the advancing army. Link couldn't see exactly what was happening. Suddenly Link could move his and feet as Yukiko untied him. They ran to attack the enemy from the back. Link stabbed one and then another. Two more came at him. He blocked one of the attacks with his shield and the other one with his sword. He was stuck between two Lizalfos. Yukiko struck one of the enemies in the back. Link swung his sword killing the other. He ran forward and hit another Lizalfos on the back of the head knocking him over. He finished him off by stabbing him. Link looked up from his position and saw the enemy retreating. Mido walked over to Link.
"Are you O.K.?" he asked.
"Yes, thanks," Link replied.
The small army was cheering for the victory. Yukio, Numblet, and Surapachi ran around and yelled crazily as the soldiers marched back into the castle. The three rejected apprentices followed.
"Thank you again, Mido," Link said.
"My pleasure," Mido assured him.
Mido and Link walked proudly back into the castle where more battles await them.
