A/N: Heyhey guys and girls. I'm so sorry I haven't updated in like forever but as you probably could tell I'm also working on a Beyblade fic. Well without far delay, here's chapter 9.

Disclaimer- Me, myself and I do not own Zelda. Stupid laws.

Chapter 9 – Tunics, Fire bead and Blondie

Zelda was thrown to the ground roughly. Her wrists were raw and bleeding from the chains that bound her for so long, and her whole body ached and bled from the rough treatment she got got from the prison guards. Ganondorf pulled up his pants and licked his lips. " Now Zelda, will you talk now? Will you talk now that you know exactly how many ways I can hurt you? Will you spare yourself the pain?"

Zelda stood up shakily using the wall to support most of her weight. Her nightgown torn in various places and was stained with blood. She glared at Ganon evily. Her bright blue eyes were now dulled and her spirit nearly broken, but her hope was yet to be shaken. " No. I will tell you nothing." She had to protect Kaian. She couldn't let the beads or the Triforce piece fall into the hands of this disgusting man.

" Oh?" Ganon laughed. "You will not tell me anything How about I make you a deal? Tell me one piece of useful information, and I will spare you father." Snapping hisfingers, two Iron knuckles brought forth an old man. He was unconscious and bleeding from the head.

" Father!" Zelda cried. As pain shot through her heart and body.

" You know very will what my men can do. Now what is your answer?"

Tears fell from Zelda. Not of pain or sadness but anger. " Fine I will tell you one thing. That girl will be your downfall Ganondorf. She will destroy you without mercy, and there is not a thing you can do to stop her. Not with who protects her. She is the bearer of the unspoken, she holds the power of the unknown, and you will fall before her."

Waving the guards away, he walked over to Zelda and kissed her forcefully on the lips before throwing her back towards the ground. " You speak lies Princess, and I don't like it." He cracked his knuckles. "But I will spare your Father, for now." Walking toward the door he called over his shoulder. " I'll be seeing you later."

As the door clicked, Zelda began to laugh insanely. The Great King of Darkness had showed fear as she spoke. She wasnow just hoping she wasn't wrong.

The two walked in silence up Death Mountain trail. Link had said something about buying some tunics, but Kaian wasn't really listening. Her eyes still half closed her using her powers back in the forest. She never realised just how much in took out of her. Yawning, she turned to Link. " So when are we getting to this Goron City place thing?"

" It's just up here." True to his words, they arrived at the mountain city in a mere 2 minutes. Kaian looked around in awe. ' The things here must have had a lot of time on they're hands.' She thought. " The store is just down there."

" At the very bottom?" she asked curiously.

" Yes." Link replied starting down the stairs. Again an awkward silence fell between them as they walked towards the bottom of the city. Kaian dragged her feet suddenly missing her friends. They always had something to talk about. Never a moment of silence between them. It was actually funny. A small smile spread across her face, when Link's voice brought her back to reality. " Do you guys have a fire tunic in a small?"

The lazy shop owner yawned and replied. " Nope."

Link growled in frustration. " You must have! What kind of store is this? Are you sure you only carry large?"

Yawning again. " Yep."

Kaian looked at Link weirdly. She never knew Linksuch had anger issues. Not wanting to see the poor shop owner get hurt, she grabbed Link's wallet and paid for the tunic. " Thank you!" She called as she walked out.

" What are you doing? You can't fit in that." Ignoring him, she pulled out the thread, needle and scissors she 'burrowed' from the shop and went to work. " Kai?" Link asked taking a sit beside her.

" Does it need to cover the whole body?" She asked grabbing the scissors.

" Well…no but mostly."

" Good." Kaian continued quietly. Making the bottoms into a knee-high skirt, with a slit (By an accident.), the shirt into a short sleeve with a low V-neckline, leather string connecting from the bottom of the neckline to the top of it, and the shirt itself reaching just above her stomach, skin tight. Satisfied with her work she looked around making sure know one as around. Finally she turned her attention to Link. " Well turn around already." A blush appearing across his face, he turned around quickly. Kaian quickly dressed down to her bra and underwear, not really caring if any one of the Goron's walked in, considering they weren't even human. Finally placing the red hat on her redder head, she walked in front of Link and twirled around. " Well, what cha think?"

Link liked her up and down simply speechless. How could she make a simple tunic into a work of art in thirty minutes? Shaking his head he replied. " You look great Kai."

Kaian giggled " Then I guess off the to volcano then?" Nodding, Link led her to the secret entrance in Darunia's room. As they entered the volcano, Kaian yelp in surprise as the wave of heat hit her. " This is so not a normal place for humans."

Link laughed. " That's why we're wearing tunics, to protect us from the heat."

Kaian looked at him oddly. " When did you change?" She asked raising an eyebrow.

Link shrugged. " While you were working."

'Shit!' She cursed to herself. 'I missed him naked!'

'Wait, why do I care?'

'Cause you like him duh.'

'I do not! He's just a friend. I have no feelings towards him!'

'Uh huh, right, sure I believe you.'

'Wait who the fuck are you?'

'Umm, you?'

'Sure, ok, right.'

'Fine don't believe me I'm leaving!'

' …Hello?…Ello?…Huh that was weird'

"KAIAN!" Link yelled for the fifth time.

" Ow, why'd you yell?" She asked snapping back to present time.

Throwing his arms in the air he walked to the bridge muttering something not understandable. " Come on Kai lets get this over with."

The bridge had already been repaired by the Gorons, so the two made it too the entrance of the fire temple easy. As they were about to enter something caught Kaian's eye. She smacked herself for not noticing it before. The red bead sat right in the middle of the Triforce platform. As she walked toward it the red started to move. Stopping quickly she backed up as a blast of lava came from ground. When it died down 3 Lava dragons and a Lizalfo stood in her way of getting the bead. " Umm, Linky-boy we got company."

Link spun around just noticing Kaian wasn't beside him. He ran beside Kaian and drew his sword. " How you attract so many enemies is beyond me. I'll take the dragons you take the Lizafo ok?"

"Again with the Lizafos? Geez why can't these things just leave me alone?" Kaian groaned as she drew her sword.

" You're irresistible." Link muttered as he charged the first dragon aiming at its tail.

Kaian shrugged her shoulders as she too, charged at her target. As she slashed her sword the lizard blocked. This happened about four times, before the lizard got a hit on her, slashing her side. Not deep, but deep enough for her to growl in pain. " Oh you're so going to pay for that!" She said as she drove her sword in the lizard stomach. She mentally thanked her cousin for paying for her lessons in weaponry. As the Lizafo fell, Link's last Lava dragon exploded. " Well that was fun." The dark red head muttered as she walked toward the bead behind Link, holding her side.

" Did you got hurt? Are you ok?" Link as quickly going to her side.

" I'm fine I'm fine." She answered picking up the bead. Taking a deep breath, she slipped the bead on to the necklace. A red light engulfed her, as she screamed out in pain. A streak of black appear in hair opposite of the blonde one she got from the light bead. Her screams quieted down as she swayed on her feet. She refused to loss consciousness this time. That only proved she couldn't handle the pain that came with the power. She held her head until everything stopped spinning.

" Kai? Are you alright?" Link asked worried.

" Oh yeah, just peachy Linky." They sat out front of Goron City until Kaian was fully back to herself. " Ok I'm good. Shall we head for out to look for the water bead?"

Link laughed. " How about we stop and rest at Impa's house? Then tomorrow we'll head for Lake Hylia. Sound good?"

" Yeah, ok but you're carrying me down the mountain."

Groaning, Link lifted her up and carried her down the mountain bridal style. Kaian instantly fell asleep, her arm closed tightly around Links neck. Link looked down at the sleeping girl. ' What spell do you have me under Kai?'

The next morning they to set out toward Lake Hylia, but Link couldn't shake the feeling of being followed. Kaian was like usual, was off in her own little world unaware of anything. " So Kai, do you have any idea what your new power is?"

" Nah. I haven't been threatened yet." Just as the words escaped her mouth, an arrow few past her face, making a cut on her cheek. " What the…" Link was already off Epona and had his sword drawn.

" Oh, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Oh geez did I just you? Are yo-" The blonde stopped in her track. Her mouth halfway open and her blue-brown eyes widen. " You-you're Link!"

Link lowered his sword and raised his eyebrow. " Yes, I am."

The blonde smiled widely. " This is so great I ran into you! I've heard that you're the person to come to when you've gotta problem." The blonde smirked. " I've also heard you were really hot… At least one rumour is true."

Link blushed a little. " Well what problem do you have?"

The girl casually walked over to Link and grabbed his arm. Link blushed even more at this action. " Well this Ganondorf man came and destroy my home and take away my friend. He said something about needing more servants. So since then I've been searching for him." Link nodded. " So since you're probably looking for him… Can I travel with you? I promise I won't get in your way."

Link thought about this. " Well we could use the help."

" Yay! Thank you so much Link." She spun around in happiest, only to be met by a pair of intense grey eyes. " Oh, who are you?"

Kaian couldn't explain why she was so mad at the girl in front of her. 'Maybe because she hit me. Ya, that's got to be it.' " I could ask you the same thing." The crimson haired girl replied coldly.

" Oh I'm sorry. I'm Mara."

" Kaian."

" Oh so you and Link are like dating?"

Kaian raised an eyebrow. This girl definitely wasn't from Hyrule. Her speech was too modern for this place, and her ears were human. She didn't trust her, but she put on a smile and replied. " What? No that's gross. Me date him? Oh no we're just friends."

" Great!" She said as grabbed links arm again.

The three walked in silence for a while until they heard a buzzing sound. Kaian who was a head by the other two stopped and looked up. There, was a Peahat hovering over her three baby ones beside it. Mara screamed as yet another Peahat and it's little ones beside it. " We're ambushed!" Mara stated reclaiming her calm and getting her bow and arrows.

Link stood in front of Mara and called over his shoulder. " You got that one right Kaian?"

Kaian couldn't believe her ears. They had just met this girl and he just totally forgot about her. Blowing the hair out of her eyes she called back. " I'll be fine." She brought her attention back to the monsters. The little Peahats were already on the attack. Cursing silently her called out. " Shield!" A wall of vines protected her. She watched as the Peahats fell to the ground. " Idiots." She muttered.

Meanwhile Link slashed another little one in half. " I'll go after the one and you take care of the small?"

Mara nodded as she shot another Peahat. " Sure thing." Link got out his arrows and concentrated on the large Peahat. The tip of the arrow glowed red with fire. He realised the arrow. On impact, the monster was engulfed with flames, falling to the ground in ashes. Just as Mara had killed the last of her enemies. " Yes! We did it Link!" The hyper girl laughed

Suddenly Link's attention snapped toward Kaian. " Kaian!"

Kaian was dodging the little ones by using her light bead. This had been happening for a good five minutes. Since her sword had been knocked away from her, plunged deeply into the rock that surrounded them. Finally a little Peahat hit her knocked her to ground. She growled as she grasped the new cut on her side. The large Peahat seemed to laugh at her as it turned on its side letting it's razor sharp leaves become a weapon, the little ones close behind it. Realising the serious danger, her eyes rolled to the back of her head as the black streak in her hair glowed a devilish red. Pure anger and power rushed though her body as her hand raised in front her fallen body. " Flare!" She called as a ball fire was realised from hand. The monsters were dead on contact.

" Kai are you alright?" Link asked helping her up.

" I'm fine." She hissed as she pulled away from Link's arm and limped toward her horse.

" Hey Kaian you really should let Link help you." Mara said concerned.

" Screw you." Was her answer.

' She must be mad at me.' Link thought. ' But I can not let her ride with those injuries.' Making up his mind he grabbed Kaian and picked her up. Being careful of her wounds, but held her so she couldn't kick him or attempt to punch him.

" Put me down right now you jackass!"

" No." Him started walking Mara and the horse following him quietly. " We'll camp out on the shore of Lake Hylia, when you're well Kai, we will search for the bead."

" I can walk!" She wined. But after about fifteen minutes of arguing and attempted biting. Kaian fell asleep once again. Her lack of power and energy was too much for her body.

" Well at least it's quiet now right Link?" Mara stated way too happy for normal. But she got no reaction from Link. He was too far-gone in his thoughts. They set up camp and went to sleep with little conversation. Mara help Link clean and bandage Kaian's wounds. Both somewhat afraid of waking up Kaian. Mara fell asleep curled up to the fire. Link was leaned up against a pillar. Kaian's body in his lap and her head on his chest.

" I'm sorry I left you alone like that Kai." He murmured into her hair, inhaling her scent. " Forgive me." It didn't take to long for sleep to consume him.

" Good everything as planned. The Hero of Time will fall before very soon." Ganon laughed as he caressed his spy's cheek. " But what that bitch Zelda said about that girl worries me."

" Don't worry Master. She is nothing with the Hero's help. You won't have to worry about her." Ganon then placed a forceful kiss on the spy's small lips. " Ma-ster." The spy said in a shaky voice.

" Keep up the good work. Keep me posted and don't disappoint me, or I will kill you." Ganondorf threatened as he pushed back the spy lightly.

" Yes master." The spy bowed and walked away from the King of Evil, not looking back in fear he might get ideas.
