Beyond the Boundaries
A/N: I made a little mistake when I wrote that Midna was mad at Tei when I should have put Tem in the last chapter, so my bad.
Chapter #6: One step too far
The monster loomed overhead with a toothy grin on its face, a smug and rather wry grin at that. Link and Midna took on a defensive stance and braced themselves, getting ready for anything. The monster popped its neck and its joints and sighed contently. "Ahhh! Free at last! It was getting cramped in that pit they call a prison, but now, after a thousand years; I'm free from my state of dormancy!"
The monster peered down at the hero of light and the princess of Twilight, grinning a wry smile. "Thanks to you two. Allow me to repay the favor by releasing you from the fail safe curse cast upon you by this realm!" The monster raised its hand above them and in its shadow, Link and Midna transformed into their true forms in a burst of light and sparks. Link fell hard on his belly as Midna remained mounted on his back in a comical effect, making the monster laugh out loudly.
As happy as this scene appears, much grief is yet to follow. Hex regained his consciousness and looked up from the place where he lay. His eyes focused and a towering beast hovered high above Link and Midna menacingly, a wry smile edging his crooked lips. "Oh, no! How did HE get out?!" Hex tried to get up but an injured tendon twitched and he fell back on to the ground. "Nnngghhhh!! Damn...!" Hex was powerless to help them right now.
The two heroes rose to their feet and gazed up at the towering monster high above them. Something told Link to get away from the monster but this realization came too late. The monster launched his massive hand outward with Link as his target. "YOUR MINE!!!!!" the monster roared out as his hand began to close in. "Link! No!" Link was shoved to the side and Midna was captured in the creatures' unrelenting grasp. Link rolled onto the ground and quickly regained his stance and stood with his sword unsheathed.
"Oh, I don't think you want to do that, light boy. Not if you want the Twili woman alive!" Midna was about to shout out her protest when she screamed out in pain as the monster gripped her body tightly, squeezing her like a doll.
"This is the price you pay for your attempted foolishness, hero! Watch as I make her the example of my power! The power of Shun, the forbidden!!!" With a violent slam of his other hand, the monster slammed its claws into Midna, her blood splattering all over his hand.
Midna let out an unearthly sound as her body fell limp in the monsters' grip. Link dropped his sword as his eyes filled with white hot anger, his heart consumed by hate.
"MIDNAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!"
