Chapter 2- Your Instincts Prove Your Insanity
To Wizzro, it remains a mystery to this minute how Cia managed to convince Midna to join her side for this battle. There are three forces in this battle. Cia's forces include Wizzro and Midna. Zelda's forces include Link and Lana. Ganondorf's forces include Zant, Ghirahim, and Volga. Before the battle started, Volga left Cia's forces at the last minute in favor of Ganondorf's forces. With great haste, Cia managed to open the time gate to the Era of Twilight, summon Midna, and persuade Midna to join forces with her. Wizzro's respect for Cia grew just a tad after witnessing all of that.
Right now, however, the battle has already started, and is heating up quickly. In the keep mirroring Wizzro's current location, Midna has just engaged battle with Lana. Ghirahim is coming up quickly on them.
"Wizzro, go to the Southwest Keep and take it while Zant is distracted," Cia commands. Well, so much for just sitting back and relaxing. Although he would prefer to just sit back and watch for a while, Wizzro reluctantly abandons his own wishes and does as commanded.
The Southwest Keep only has a few enemy forces within its walls. This is pushover for Wizzro. He takes the keep in about a minute. His record is 45 seconds. If his pride was represented by a flesh wound, then the wound would be infected and swollen to the point where touching it would seemingly cause it to burst. Yep, this is the kind of imagery Wizzro's analogies have to offer. Isn't it just charming?
Once again, Cia's commands fill the air. "The base is under siege. Come defend it you worthless imbeciles!" That was rude and unnecessary on Cia's part.
Wizzro's ears catch Midna's response. She responds by saying, "What do I look like, a maid? Just hold on until I've got this load off my back. Gees." With all fairness, Midna is fighting Ghirahim and Lana in an enemy base. Unlike Volga, Wizzro realizes that Midna is not your average imp.
When Lana is distracted by Ghirahim, Midna takes off, headed for her allied base. The base sits at the very edge of the battlefield, so Midna has a few enemies to plow through just for fun on her way there.
Midna and Wizzro rendezvous at the keep just south of their allied base. "I thought you said you were busy, missy," Wizzro taunts.
"Yeah, I was. I was busy fighting everybody on the battlefield while you were resting on your non-existent backside."
Midna is so charming when she's angry. You know what, Cia can hold off Ganondorf and Link in the allied base while Wizzro has a little fun with Midna.
Wait, what?! Cia is fighting both Ganondorf and Link in the allied base?! Both Midna and Wizzro seem to realize this at the same time, because both of their gazes turn towards the allied base right then. Midna's gaze returns to Wizzro. "Hey, if you decide to get off your non-existent backside anytime soon, do you think you could hold off anybody else that comes to attack us? Cia and I would greatly appreciate it."
"As you wish," Wizzro replies mockingly, "your majesty."
Midna refrains from flicking that one pink eye with her hair so hard it launches out the back of that wizard's head.
Wizzro is too busy staring at Midna to notice Zant running up from behind her. Once he does notice Zant, it is too late. Zant grows to tremendous size and crushes Midna under his foot. The Twilight Princess is crushed onto the ground and knocked out cold. Zant shrinks back to his original size before moving off of Midna.
In response, Wizzro descends with utter disbelief. Instinctively, he pushes his black, skeletal arms under Midna as if going to lift her off the ground. In an unusual display of emotions, Wizzro yells, "NO! She was my only companion!"
Zant cannot decide amongst himself how to respond to this. He is the only witness of this strange behavior from the twisted wizard, and wonders if he is just hallucinating this. No seriously, was this some sort of disturbing nightmare?
In addition to his scene, Wizzro rests Midna back on the ground and uses his magic to attack Zant.
Despite Wizzro defeating Zant, the battle is lost when Cia falls to Ganondorf, with Link's help of course. Overall, Zelda's forces win the battle, to Ganondorf's dismay. As it turns out, Zant wasn't the only one to witness Wizzro's outburst; Lana witnessed it from behind as she was heading to Link's aid. To Wizzro's embarrassment, Midna wakes up, proving herself to be, in fact, not dead.
As for the battles of the future, whenever Wizzro enters the same keep as Midna, he has a faint flashback of his instinctive reaction to Midna's supposed defeat. In all honesty, he doesn't know whether to be proud or embarrassed by it… oh well.
Author's Notes- A little strange you say? I agree. Wizzro is a little creepy to look at, but somewhere down in that abyssal cloak is a normal head with a normal personality. Or,... maybe not. Tell me what you thought of this, and I love suggestions. Link and I love suggestions. Ganondorf, too.
