Chapter 4 – Legend of Zelda! GX
A/N: Thanks for the comments.
Zelda woke to a small noise, which was strange; she never was a light sleeper, in fact, she was quite a heavy sleeper. When she opened her eyes, she saw the dull red painted dorm she fell asleep in. As she sat up, she saw Link, her "younger" brother sleeping on the floor beside her bed.
She gazed at the clock, six O four, she thought sleepily and lowered her eyes back to Link. He was sleeping so peacefully. Zelda jumped off the bed and gently put a hand on Link's shoulder and wiggled him a bit.
"Link…wake up. You have a duel today, don't you?" Link's eyes shot open as fast as a bullet that flies by.
He didn't say anything; just lied there and stared at his sister. Zelda could tell he wasn't happy about something. The look in Link's eye told her that she shouldn't have woken him up.
"Why aren't you sleeping with your roommates?" asked Zelda ignoring his cold look.
Link didn't answer for a moment. He turned his head away in thought and looked back at her without a freezing glint in his eye. "You remember Zane?" He asked bluntly.
Zelda gasped a short gasp and shook her head really fast as if to knock something of her head. "How do you remember Zane? You were…around only four years old."
"He was your boyfriend. I remember all of them and I hate all of them." Link said as he sat up level to Zelda now.
"Well, I do remember, why?" Zelda asked keeping her eyebrows down.
"Jaden; he says he asked Zane about…"Link trailed off remembering Majora, "Majora's Mask." He told her.
"Majora?" Zelda repeated in horror.
"You told him, didn't you?" Link asked loudly and a little angry.
Zelda hesitated and she looked down unable to look him in the eye. Everyone she knew she could trust, she told them almost anything, and Majora slipped on accident, because she was forbidden to tell anybody. She did anyway, and now Link knew. She felt guilty and embarrassed of her mistake.
"Link…" she tried to muster up the strength to tell him…"I am so sorry. It was an accident, and…"
"An ACCIDENT?!" Link yelled, "how is that an accident? It just 'slipped out'?!"
Link was flaring with anger built in his body.
"Link, calm down and listen to me! You'll give yourself a heart attack!" Zelda scolded.
"Listen…to you?" Link barely got out, "Zelda…you said that you would never--"
"I know Link, but it did slip out. I didn't mean for that to happen, we were talking about our little brothers and you came up and it slipped, alright." Zelda explained calmly.
Link stared at his sister in disbelief and anger. He shook his head, negative and shot to his feet. "I have a duel…" Link told her and left out the door. Fortunately for him, he was still in his uniform, he'd slept in it and now he was going to duel somebody.
"YAWN!"
"Mornin' Jay. Sleep well?" Syrus asked Jaden who was staring at his Hero Deck.
"You bet'cha." Jaden grinned, when he turned to Syrus, he noticed Chumley's bunk was empty.
"Chumley's already gone." Jaden said solemnly. "Ah well. Link has a duel today! I can't WAIT to see what he's got!"
"Link? Where is he?" Syrus asked looking around the room looking for Link.
"He left yesterday, out of the dorm, I don't really get it." Jaden explained putting down his deck.
"Left? Another one?" Syrus whined.
"No Sy, not left the Island, or the Academy, just out the door and didn't come back." Jaden shrugged.
"Oh…well okay. How did the rest of the game go last night?" Syrus asked.
"It was great! We got answers. Turns out 'Majora' is ALIVE!" Jaden said creepily like he was in a horror movie.
"Huh? Alive?!" Syrus repeated a little terrified.
"Yeah…I wonder if he has the card. Well anyway, he will be a good friend I'm sure." Jaden said looking over to the clock.
Syrus looked as well, "Oh gosh! We'll miss the duel! It is supposed to start in two minutes!" Syrus exclaimed.
"Let's run!" Jaden yelled running out the door. It was six forty-eight when they left and they were a little late, but they didn't miss much. Only the announcement that Link would transfer to Ra or his opponent, Andrew would transfer to Obelisk, since he was already in Ra.
"Let the duel begin!"
"Sweet! We didn't miss anything!" Jaden exclaimed.
"Let's go Link! We're rootin' for ya!" Syrus yelled out in enthusiasm.
Link held his silver duel disk on his right forearm. His duel disk was quite remarkable. A solid silver duel disk with only 3 card places. Two on the left and one on the right. The mid-circles had the same sign, a gold triangle. It was very unique, unlike anyone in Duel Academy had seen before.
"You're a lefty, eh, mate?" Andrew said in a deep British accent.
"Correct, I am left-handed."
"Alright then, left first."
Link drew his first standby phase, and looked at his hand.
"I summon a Zora in attack mode," (1200) Link stated, and added "His special ability allows me to summon a second Zora to the field. I lay two face downs and I'll be done for now."
"Whoa! What are those?" Syrus asked.
"I have never seen anything like THAT before." Jaden declared in awe.
A lot of people were talking about how strange this kid's deck was.
"Do not look at me, I don't know a thing." Bastion stated.
"We know you don't…" Chazz replied.
"That it, mate? Alright." Andrew took his standby phase and played a dragon card called Lord of D. (1200).
"I also play the spell, Flute of Summoning Dragon! See, mate, when my Lord of D. is on this field, I to summon 2 more monsters from my deck."
"Oh great…" Link mumbled.
"Yes very much. I summon up Dragon Ice," (1800), "and Decoy Dragon in ATK." (300) Andrew told Link.
"Wow. So far, that Andrew guy's got game." Jaden said.
"Yeah, he does, but my brother's more game." A voice told them from behind. Jaden looked behind him as well as Syrus and Bastion.
"Hey Zelda." Jaden greeted.
"Hi Jaden, friends." Zelda bowed.
"Wow…" Bastion and Syrus drooled.
"I'm involved." Zelda smiled.
"Aw!" they both complained.
"Anyway, I'm Syrus, Syrus Truesdale."
Zelda flinched at 'Truesdale'.
"Interesting…" She trailed off in thought.
"And I'm Bastion Misawa."
"Nice to meet you both." Zelda smiled.
"I'll have my Dragon Ice attack one of your Zora friends," Andrew told him and sent one Zora of the field with a blistering cold attack. Link almost winced… (3600 Life Points left)
"And Lastly, I summon a spell called Spirit Barrier." Andrew explained.
"Not under my name." Link said with his eyes closed and his arms crossed.
"Heh?" Andrew exclaimed, shocked.
"My facedown." Link reminded him, "It's called Oath to Order, a Melody Spell, and it negates your spell and ends your turn."
"Oh…flabnogg." Andrew muttered.
Flabnogg? Everyone watching the duel between Link's Hylian Deck and Andrew's Dragon Deck were all taken aback when he said flabnogg.
"English?" Bastion suggested aloud, which made a few people laugh.
"My go," Link took his standby phase, "I play my spell, Jar of Avarice, so I'll take two cards from my deck," Link looked at the cards he drew, "and I'll play one of them. I summon Death Armos to the Field!" (ATK: 800)
"Why? That thing only has 800 ATK." Syrus declared.
"Apparently it has some kind of effect, but that is a chance I'm going to take, mate." Andrew said lightly.
"It can wait, it's not your turn."
Suddenly, a burst through the doors made a major uproar. Someone came in, a yellow jacket, no sleeves, a bandana over his head with yellow colored teeth, and tan skin with black dreadlocks.
"Sergeant Hassleberry is BACK!" the figure yelled so everyone could hear.
"Hassleberry!" Syrus exclaimed.
"How're ya doin', buddy?" Jaden asked.
"Can you losers keep it down a bit? There's a duel going on, ya know." Chazz said.
"You should meet someone." Jaden smiled motioning Hassleberry to come sit with them with his whole left arm.
"Did I hear a duel was goin' on?" Hassleberry asked in his deep country voice.
"You sure did." Syrus replied.
"Yeah why do you think we are all sitting here? Get a brain, sheesh…" Chazz insulted.
"I will, when you will…" Hassleberry grinned.
"Heh…good one," Jaden said just as Hassleberry stopped in front of him, "anyway, there is two new students here, and she's one of them." Jaden said moving out of Zelda's way so she could see Hassleberry and Hassleberry could see her.
"Wow…." Hassleberry drooled.
"Don't bother." Chazz said.
"Yeah, she says she is 'involved'." Syrus said to Hassleberry and turned back to the duel. "That down there is her brother Link."
Link tried to ignore them after giving them a half-hearted wave without smiling. He turned his attention back to Andrew who was staring at Hassleberry…or, at least, he better have been. If he was looking at Zelda, he will be sure Andrew would see his last duel.
'Because nobody, and I mean nobody can get between us.' Link thought.
He had always had a fear that Zelda would start to leave Link alone in a dark room so she can go with some other boy who will eventually change his mind and break her heart. He never wanted her to get hurt or leave his side, because without her, he felt as though he was nothing. Which wasn't true, but Link couldn't help but think.
"First I'll attack your Decoy Dragon with Death Armos."
"Big mistake…" Andrew said. He'd lost his Decoy Dragon and 300 Life Points, but his Decoy Dragon had a special ability which allowed him to summon another dragon.
"I special summon Darkblaze Dragon in ATK." (1200), "And because he was special summoned, he gets double ATK power." Andrew said.
"Whoa! 2400 Points?!" Jaden exclaimed.
"I lay a face down and end my turn." Link said quietly, just having that fear come back into his head.
"Sam Hill…" Hassleberry breathed, "This is such a strange deck."
"It's a Hylian Deck." Zelda explained.
"Alright, I summon a spell, called Summoner's Art. So from my deck, I'll send a card to my hand and I get to play it next turn. Next, I'll have my Dragon Ice attack your Zora and after that, Lord of D. will attack your Death Armos, and that only leaves one target left for my Darkblaze Dragon." Andrew said.
"In your dreams." Link said.
"Your trap." Andrew replied back sarcastically as if he was expecting a yes.
"No. My Death Armos." Link said irritably, "He can only be destroyed by Light monsters." Link explained.
"Oh….k, mate." Andrew said hiding the fact that he was disappointed, "so I guess I'll lay a card down and be done with it."
"Great. I summon up Koume, the Fire Witch, and Kotake the Ice Witch." Link said, "now I play a Spell called Connection, so I'll fuse Koume and Kotake to make Twinrova! Something about Twinrova, she doubles her ATK points when I sacrifice a monster LV. 5 or up." (3200)
"SAM HILL!" Hassleberry exclaimed.
"That is one nifty card." Syrus said in complete awe.
"Now Twinrova, get rid of that Darkblaze Dragon of his."
"It's brilliant. I have never seen a monster with a Pyro and Aqua Type before." Bastion muttered.
"Yeah, me either." Syrus said.
"That's one of the traits of a Hylian Deck, almost every monster have two types, but one element, and one effect…ya know, usually." Zelda explained.
"Also, Twinrova can attack twice." Link said, "but I think I'll give it a break for now. Your go."
Cliffhanger Ending…lol. Just a heads up, Andrew has 3700 Life Points, 2 monsters on the field (Lord of D. with 1200 ATK and Dragon Ice with 1800 ATK), and Link has 3600 Life Points (which I will call LP from now on) and 2 monsters (Twinrova with 3200 ATK and Death Armos with 800)
Also, I'll let you know what they are, just in case you forgot. Death Armos is the big stone looking thing that floats in Stone Tower Temple (Majora's Mask) and tries to squish you. The only thing that can kill it is a Light Arrow, so that's where his ability came from.
Twinrova is Koume and Kotake who are the two Gerudo sisters who capture Nabaroo in OoT (Ocarina of Time) and they are the boss for the Spirit Temple as Twinrova.
A zora is the blue fish thing in all LoZ games.
Connection is Polymerization, and Jar of Avarice is Pot of Greed renamed like LoZ stuff, so…lol
Oath to Order was a song that you played in the MM and the 4 Giants stopped the moon from falling.
The rest of the cards are all real. Lol either from the YGO video game or TV show from all three series.
