Here is chapter 3. I know it's been forever and then some, but I had no computer for that amount of time. Working on descriptions and stuff, it just doesn't come easily to me. So here's Chapter 3, please Rate and Review.
Sebastian looked at the computer screen in front of him, one robotic eye taking on everything at once. He sighed, pulling back, his heavy footsteps ringing against the metal grate that served as a floor. One of the last bastion of those opposing the All-Master. He stayed in the shadows, away from the blinking lights along the walls that only he could understand.
"Sebastian, sir,"someone said from behind him.
He turned, and the man flinched when he got a good look at the scared face. He was new to the Bastion, obviously, or he would know better.
"What is it private, I haven't got all day," he said in a grating voice.
"Word from Fox, he was in the Hyrulian sector, and found Ganondorf . . .dead," he said with excitement. "Decapitated."
Sebastian was silent for a few moments. Fox would never have managed to kill the Gerudo King, nor would Samus. Only someone holding one of the pieces of the Triforce could kill him. Sheik was here with him, so it left only Link. If his face could under the metal plating, he would've smiled. Things were looking up now. He moved along, metal on metal sounds echoing against metal walls. He almost made it to his quarters when another private caught up to him.
"Sir, another rift opened. We think the third Chosen has arrived . . . We think he's in trouble . . ."
"What sector?" the harsh voice demanded.
"The Hyrule sector, Sir. But we haven't received confirmation from Fox yet. . . "

Steven dodged the blade by the skin of his teeth, literally. The laser blade came back towards him, and again, he dodged. Military hand to hand combat had never taught him to deal with something like that. Not that it matter, he was being trained as special ops, and it would take more than something he wasn't prepared for to take care of him. When the next blow came, instead of dodging again, he moved past the defense of the one attacking him, and his fist came up with enough force to crack a brick. A sharp crack followed by a lance of pain told him that his opponent was not human, but an android.
"GOD DAMMIT" he swore, grey eyes flashing in anger.
The Red-clad android punched him back and he went flying, hitting a boulder hard enough to break his arm. He fell to the ground and coughed, trying to catch his breath, but it had been knocked clear out of him. He heard the machine moving closer to him, and knew that he was dead.
"Strange," it said. " I would have thought that a servant of the All-Master would be . . . a bigger challenge."
"The hell you're talking about?" he asked, looking a the bare plain around him.
It was his luck to hit the one boulder in the area, everything was clear but for the dead grass. Nothing useful that he could see anywhere. Only his death fast approaching. The mechanical man stood over him now and raised his blade. He close his eyes, and heard it come down, but a sound of something hitting metal exploded near him rather than the brief pain of his head being detached from his neck.
"What are you doing Zero, you almost killed one of the Chosen!" someone snarled.
Steven cracked an eye open, and saw something he had never expected to see. A young woman, with pointed ears of all thing stood between him and the robot.
"Him? But . . . Fox said he'd spied a high ranking Infected here and needed to . . . Are you sure?"
"Sebastian sent me. He came from a Rift. We think Samus got the second one, and . . . Link is alive apparently."
"Alive? I doubt it, he would never have left the Hyrulian sector get this bad if he was . . ."
"You didn't see him at the Sundering, before Sebastian arrived? He gave up on us, on this land. He was angrier than I thought possible. He quit . . .just quit."
"Link might think he had quit, but he could not, no more than X could. He's a hero, a true one . . . If he's alive, then all hope isn't lost."
Steven understood nothing of what was being said. He wondered if he had been injured during training and if that was simply his imagination. He passed his uninjured hand through his black hair, and looked at them.
"Would someone tell me what is happening?" he asked, refusing to let the pain to show in his voice.
"Sebastian will tell you everything you need to know. It'll be easier to accept coming from him, believe me," the Android called Zero said.
Steven wondered if 'Zero' was a model, or a name. With a shrug, which sent a jolt of pain down his arm and shoulder, he got on his feet and followed. He was alive for the moment, and soon he would know more. Things could be worst really.
