So now we return to our other duo, who are nearing their end of the dungeon.

Link's footsteps echoed in the dark, as I saw his upper body look around. "I don't see any other openings, Aaron. Is there another door?" He asked. I looked at the door we came through. "No, and the door we came through is locked." I responded. "Shit, well, I'm at a loss." His voice came through. I sighed, looking up at the ceiling. There was a glowing eye...which roared and came booming down. A small light suddenly revealed the room, with a giant monster looming below it. I gulped. "Oh...damn it…" I felt stunned. Fi...help me out! I commanded her, which she replied with, I shall analyze this creature. She flew out of my sword and flew around it. I felt Link's hand grip my shoulder and push me over. Fi came back. Master, this is Armogohma, a fiend of the past. It's an arachnid adapted for fast movement and improved intelligence. May I suggest that you and Link take turns distracting it, for the intelligent being tends to get distracted easily. I nodded. "Link, distract it, I'll take over from there. He nodded and ran towards it, shouting. I readied my sword and lunged at it, spinning with my sword, and striking it in the eye. I roared loudly, and I managed to land several different hits. Link then dove in to help, and we both struck it at the same time, killing it. It combusted into a dark cloud, which eventually disappeared and revealed two small medallions. I walked over to pick them up, when the pair of sheikah appeared behind me. "Well done, Aaron."

I turned around and saw Imprey's eyes lit with satisfaction, but then lowered and he sighed. "You seemed to have injured yourself." I looked down and saw that my legging was ripped open, blood spilling out. Link's eyes filled with worry. "Oh… I didn't even notice." Imprey crouched down and started working on it as his sister Zulu talked for him. "Well, I'll take those medallions." I handed them over, and Imprey popped right back up, saying, "There. It'll take a few minutes to heal up." I smiled. "Thanks, Imprey." He nodded and took one of the medallions from Zulu. They both walked into the newly opened way behind us. I shrugged, following them. As we walked in the room, they both turned to me. "Now, place your sword on the shrine." Zulu commanded. I obeyed the order, and let them do what they did. They mumbled words in a language I've never heard, and turned to me once they were done. "Aaron, we've upgraded your sword." I looked at them. "Huh?"

"Your sword is imbued with the power of Moon and Shadow. Now Fi can assist you in fights, and she has more wider range of knowledge."

Fi flew right by me, and her cape-like arms sharpened up, sword sharp. I looked at her in wonder. "Yes, Master Aaron. I'm now able to fight." I looked over to Link, who smiled and nodded. I took my sword and headed out the small flight of stairs that lead upward and out of the dungeon. Link's satisfied face soon fell back into a normal expression. I sighed, and he whistled, putting two fingers in his mouth to amplify the sound. Soon, a giant red bird came flying down. I unsheathed my sword. Link laughed. "It's alright, Aaron. It's my loftwing, Firefeather." He patted my shoulder, and I sheathed my sword. The majestic creature landed down next to us, cawing with loudness. I slowly walked up to it, and it greeted me with it's eyes. I gaped in bewilderment, probably looking like an idiot. It lowered it's body, as it's eyes seem to say, "Hello." I gulped, closing my mouth. Link laughed again. "Hey, come on. He's friendly." He hopped on it, and held out a hand. I looked at it for a while, then took it. "Hold on tight." He told me. I gripped the fur on it with all my might, and we took off. I squeezed my eyes shut, scared to even look at where we were at. I shook my head and eventually opened them to see Hyrule below us. I gasped.

"It's such a wonderful sight…" I told him. He smiled at me, saying, "I know, right? Here, I'll show you a place." We flew even more up, doing loop-de-loops until we reached a certain elevation, and I spotted a floating, no, several floating islands. I felt air escape my mouth once again, amazed at what I was seeing. "There was a statue up here called the Statue of the Goddess, but it's not there now, because it-" "You caused it to go down on the surface. I know that one." I turned to him. "How…" I blushed at his question. "I've studied a bit." I said, scratching the back of my head. He then landed us on the biggest island. It seemed washed up and old, yet the buildings still survived. He sighed. "This was my home, believe it or not. I...I'm so sad to have to come back to it's ruins." I looked at him. "Well, it looks great for old buildings." He chuckled a bit, then looked up. "Hey, I can teach you how to get a loftwing. Come with me." He pulled me along. We ended up in the plaza, and he got me near the edge. "Now, you just have to blow on your fingers, like this," He whistled, "And it'll come. I'm guaranteeing you, it'll work." I looked down. "It looks pretty scary…" He patted my back. "Don't worry. It'll be fine." He then pushed me off. I panicked a bit, but did as I was commanded. I blew out the whistle, and a blinding flash of white came under me. I had held on to this giant beast, and squeezed my eyes. "Aaron! Open your eyes!" Link yelled. I opened them and smiled. I'm...holy...fucking...shit. I'M FLYING. "I'M FLYING! I'M FLYING!" I screamed. Link laughed and shouted back to me, "Hey, calm down! Keep it under control!" I placed my feet near the base of it's wings, and all of a sudden, it started to spin. I held on tight as it dove down and up, heat swirling around.

I crash landed into the forest. I opened up my eyes quickly to find Link standing over me, towering me like a giant. "You...you okay?" He asked. I nodded. "I'm fine, don't worry." I told him getting up. I saw that my bird wasn't looking too hot. It's wings were spread out, and it's breathing was deep and heavy. I kneeled down and pet it. It's blue eyes reflected back into mine. It was pure white, with black tipped feathers. I nodded, smiling at it. It gave a caw back, then got back up. "She's gorgeous...your lucky to have a cloud loftwing." I looked at him.

"Cloud loftwing?"

"They're extremely rare. Even more rare than crimson loftwings. It was said that there was only one in the whole world, and I had yet to see one."

"Oh...well…"

I looked at it. "Pyro."

"Huh?"

"I'm calling her Pyro. Isn't more fitting than what you think?"

"Uhh, sure I guess. What ever floats your boat, Aaron."

I laughed. Aaron, huh? Well, nice to meet you. A cool voice sounded in my head. Master, the loftwing is communicating with you.

Do you approve of your name?

Yes. I do. I like it very much.

Great!

Link tapped my shoulder. "We should get going. I have a bad feeling about this." I then went over and hopped on Pyro, who flapped a few times and got into the air. We flew over towards the Tomb of the Heroes to find that the door was still open. I slid off of Pyro and ran in. Our footsteps echoed while I held the torch, furthering our expedition into the Tomb. I arrived at it, to find that two of the coffins were opened. I looked back over to Link, who shrugged. They all had symbols on wall, above them. One had a bird head, which I assume where Link came from, the next four had a sword on them, then another one had an ocarina on it, which lead to a wolf's head, and a different looking sword. I gulped. "Wait a second...I think I remember something...Aha! I know now! These are all places where the heroes sleep! These are...my...predecessors." He slowed down and looked worried. I saw his face. "Predecessors? Then that means…" His face looked up at me. "You're the latest one."

I couldn't believe it. Yeah, he was my ancestor, but ALL of them? I didn't know… Oh, my, gods. How did I fail to realize that. I sighed. "I guess I've got to awaken the next one?"

"Ones. They're the Four Sword."

"Wait, how do you know?"

"I've watched over them in my sleep. It's kinda hard to see a similar thing happen to those who've descended from you."

I looked over to him. "I'm so sorry to hear that." He looked up. "Well, that's my sad life." I then looked back at the coffins, and opened them, revealing four kids that looked alike. One was in green, while the other three were in blue, red, and purple. They all opened their eyes and saw me. "So we're back." The green one said. I smiled. "Yes." I then realized something. "Wait, we're going to need nicknames for you all." Link's eyes lit with surprise. "Well, we already have nicknames established between us, so…let me see. I'm Green. He's Blue...etc. But him?" Green pointed towards Link. "I'm not sure. Maybe Bird Master?"

"Bird Master?"

"Well, I find it fitting." I said. He sighed. "Yeah, that's true. Might as well." I opened the next coffin. It was another, who had a tunic which literally looked identical to mine, and his hair was purely blonde. He didn't really open his eyes, which kinda scared me a bit. "Um, hey, clean up here on aisle five." I looked over to Bird Master, who nudged him. This one awoken very subtle. "Holy...shit...where the hell am I?" He looked to me, then to Bird Master. "Ah, wait now I remember. If I'm correct, you're Aaron?" I laughed. "Yup." I looked to the other side when he stopped me. "Where's Wolfie?"

"Yeah, where is he?"

We all looked at each other. Oh...shit.
