Omg, guys, THANK YOU for wishing me all of that luck! :D It actually worked and it turned out that that English part A diploma exam was easier than I had thought... now I just have to do part B on Monday and my Math diploma on Friday. Don't worry, though, I've got those ones in the bag. The English part B is always easy because it's nothing but reading comprehension, which is something that I'm really good at. Also, my mind is a mathematical one, so my Math exam will be absolutely no problem whatsoever! ^_^ Now, before I go too far, I had better get to responding to reviews. First, to The Drone: I'm really glad that you liked that set of chapters, but (as you've probably already guessed) your guesses for the boss were wrong. :/ Oh well. I hope you like what I wrote instead. ;)

To Kagu the Great: I'm glad that I was able to make a shadow temple that was creepier than the original OoT! ^_^ I like that I made you laugh, though, with the freakin' hammer, lol. XD On the other hand, I am thankful that you don't care for the boots. Honestly, I played OoT for the first time on the 3DS, so the boots didn't annoy me anywhere near as much as they did other people. :/ Also, I hope that you've seen the ending of ALBW, because of the plot twist! :D (honestly, I really liked it.)

To the first of two Guest reviews who didn't put names: Thanks for the compliment regarding the dead hand! :D I first played OoT when I was already a teenager (first time was on the 3DS), so it didn't scare me anywhere near as much as it did some other people. However, I can why people are scared of that thing, so yeah. ;)

To the second of two Guest reviews who didn't put names: *Insert reply here*

To 'Name is my name': Both of your reviews did get posted, no need to worry. First of all, I'd like to say a big thank you for that compliment about my writing style! (I blushed when I read it) However, I understand your concern regarding the Links talking and I don't mean to sound rude, or anything, but I'm just satisfied that they haven't received any actual dialogue in this fic. I understand what you mean, and I do plan on having this corrected, but please also understand that I write ahead, so I had already written up to and including chapter 72 before you reviewed. Don't worry, though, after that, things will get better. ;)

And, finally, to 'Guest XXVIII': Thank you oh so greatly for you kind wishes! Like I said earlier, they actually worked! :D

Now, I present to you what I think is the best boss fight that I have ever written! You probably already know who it is just by the chapter title, so I won't delay any longer! Here's chapters 58-60!


Chapter 58: Dark Link

I had no idea of what to think. The shadow that had been following the black ball of light, almost seeming to help it, had taken shape before us. I remembered that it had even been there when we fought the robot way back when! Therefore, I knew that it truly knew of us. Yet, there was something odd about the fact that it took the shape of one of us (but with different colours). Cautiously, I decided to try to copy some particularly cruel slave masters and I demanded that it tell us what it was.

"Hmph… I wouldn't expect you idiots to know." It tauntingly replied. All three of us were rather startled that it actually spoke back to us, but I made sure to keep my fighting stance, even despite that. The others followed my example and regained their composure before it continued.

"I am your shadow. I was created when you three met. Although, I have learned everything about you since… Do you want to know who they are, you ignorant pigs?" it asked while motioning upwards, at the balls of light that were still going at it. Instead of replying, I decided to give it a look that just said 'tell me'.

"My master… is one of them. The other… is in our way. Although, my master has not yet obtained a true form. Even though his form is based solely on the observer. Yet, his time spent locked away has drained most of his power. He needed a vessel from each land…"

As it said this, some of the darkness that was surrounding the area melted away to reveal three different people, all of them unconscious. One of them was recognized by future Link as the boy named Ethan. Another was recognized by all of us as the horribly mean guard from knight Link's dimension: Shaun. Finally, the third was one that I had forgotten all about until I saw him again, but just seeing him again filled me with fear. It was the slave trader that had captured the three of us the last time that we were in my dimension: William!

"Quite a collection, hmm? It was only fitting, after all. Now all that we need is for you three to sew time back together. That way, ruling over all of the lands will be just that much easier." At this, I knew that we were basically screwed. If we didn't sew time back together, then the hylians of my dimension would remain as slaves. Yet, if we did, then we would be playing along with this… thing.

"You don't need the white one in order to do this, so why don't we just get rid of it?" I knew that it was talking about the white ball of light. However, none of the three of us even knew what the thing was. Yet, something in my gut told me that anything that this shadowy thing wanted to do was… wrong. It seemed that the other two Links also had this feeling, because future Link actually told it not to do it.

"Oh? You want it? Heh heh heh… well then… why don't you earn it?!" It shouted before it stood up straighter, very dramatically. Everything around us seemed to shift as darkness once again enveloped the three men that he had kidnapped and the balls of light rose out of sight. Finally, the shadowy figure spoke once again.

"Oh, and by the way, you three can call me… dark Link!" he simply stated before he began to advance on us! Almost immediately, future Link grabbed his hammer in order to try to stun it. However, dark Link dodged with a little chuckle and tried to slash at his side. Thankfully, future Link managed to whip out his shield in time to block it. At this point, I rushed forward and tried to hit dark Link!

I managed to land a hit, but it didn't seem to faze him as he simply turned and delivered a very hard kick to my stomach, pushing me away. I could see him come rushing at me very quickly, with his glowing red eyes that looked so damn murderous. Suddenly, though, knight Link jumped in between him and me, with his shield out, blocking him. Future Link then tried to stab at him. However, dark Link then did something that I had thought was impossible!

He jumped up onto future Link's sword and stood on the blade, taunting all three of us with his obvious prowess. Yes, he let loose another really deep and menacing chuckle before he moved to slash his own sword at future Link. He looked paralyzed with fear and awe, as did knight Link, so I had to run in and help! All that I could do, though, was just try to slash at his boots in order to knock him over.

However, he decided to show off a bit and he backflipped in order to land behind me! Before I knew it, he had grabbed me and jumped while keeping a tight grip on me, thus lifting both of us into the air. In midair, he twisted so that he landed on top of me! It certainly knocked the wind out of me, but then future Link rushed in before dark Link could do any more damage. So, while future Link kept dark Link busy with a combination of his well-timed bombs and his hammer, knight Link helped me to get back up.

When I did get back up, I noticed that dark Link had pinned future Link against the wall and was holding his sword up to his neck! Before I could act, knight Link rushed forward and slashed at dark Link, making him back off of future Link. However, this time, knight Link donned his vanish cape and disappeared from sight, making it impossible for dark Link to retaliate. Therefore, he had to turn to either future Link or me in order to attack… dark Link turned towards me!

He ran towards me, with his sword out, but I just barely managed to dodge out of the way in time, leaving him open to attack. So, I charged! However, I pulled back just at the last minute because I saw him getting ready to counter. As luck would have it, I did it just in time for a fire arrow to come right out of nowhere and hit him without the splash of the fire even touching me!

It was then that dark Link rushed straight at me while still on fire! As he moved, the flames subsided, so when he grabbed me again, it didn't burn. However, this time, instead of throwing himself on top of me, he twisted me around and held me in a lock. The other Links started to move to free me, but he jumped out of the way with me in hand and then he put his head on my right shoulder.

"You know, you really are the weakest Link in this chain…" he whispered, ever so gently into my ear before he hammer threw me across the room! Upon impact with the wall, I blacked out just as dark Link's words began to sink in…
