Now that the first dice was cast (or the first sage was killed) Link knew that he had to make haste. He would have preferred to plan his revenge a bit more careful, but the circumstances changed that, and he wouldn't have had it any other way.

Inside his head, the mask was giving him instructions.

Together we will make them pay for hurting you. We'll hurt them the way they've hurt you. But hurry, time is running out. We'll cut them, torture them, and watch while they bleed. Nothing will get in our way…

It was getting harder and harder to resist the mask, and even though one small part of his mind regretted what he had done to Nabooru, Link couldn't stop now. It felt as if he was balancing on a cliff, just waiting to be pushed down into the abyss waiting for him below.

So within half a day, he made it to Zora´s Fountain, ready to deal with that fishy fiancée of his. He had wanted to start with her, watch as the life slowly drained from her, watch as she realised that the man she had wanted to marry turned out to be her killer. Heh how ironic, she never would be the first in anything to him…

No one noticed him as he entered, which was quite strange, but it sure served his purpose.

Together we´re unstopable….

Within minutes, he entered the private chamber of Princess Ruto, Water Sage, Princess of the Zora. It must have been his lucky day because she was there, lying on what probably served as her bed, sleeping blissfully unaware of her oncoming doom. As quietly as he could, he locked the door and made his way to her.

And that's when she woke.

Link! You're back! What on earth are you doing here? You look like you've just been through hell and back, what's wrong? You're here to visit me right? Oh my gosh!! I have to tell Zelda, I knew you loved me the same way as I love you!!

She slowly made her way over, arms open, ready to embrace him. Link used that opportunity to end her pathetic life. He watched as she fell to the floor, mouth open, arms clutching her wound.

"Link….why???"

"I've come to end your pathetic fishy life. Feel the pain you, and your precious little Zelda along with the other sages, caused me. Think of me as you burn in hell."

He then kicked her right below her chin, forcing her on her back. He couldn't help but smile sadistically when he located her heart, and removed it within a few seconds.

She had offered him her heart, and he literally took it and ripped it apart.

Her blue blood would forever stain his hands.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The clock was still ticking and he would have to hurry all the more. With his luck, the Hyrulian army was probably on their way to stop him, but he wouldn't be an easy pushover. No…he would take as many of them with him as he could manage.

So many Sages to kill…So little time…

He barely allowed himself the time to wash her blood, Ruto's blood of his hands. It wouldn't just do, waltzing into Goron Cavern with her blood staining his hands, would it? He would be Shish Kebab before he could have even finished pronouncing that word. Not that he ever talking though, they weren't worth his time and voice….

Getting to Darunia would be a lot harder then getting to Ruto. Darunia had a lot of physical power and easily hold him in a death grip. And if he managed to end his life how would he leave said place? He couldn't just kill Darunia and continue his merry way out, no he wouldn't be able to handle all the Gorons at once. And that's when the solution hit him. He was going to blow up the whole mountain, thus ending the Fire Sage and his people.

How could he not have thought of that before? It would be so easy to warp into Death Mountains crater, drop a bomb there, and warp away….

Yes……That would safe him a lot of time….

The only thing that irked him was that warping would make his presence known to princess Zelda. And he wanted to safe her for last….

He allowed himself to think over his next steps. If he would warp to the crater and drop said bomb there, where would he warp to? Who would he pick as his next victim? It would be easier to deal with Saria first, killing her would be a piece of cake, she never would see it coming. Then again, it would also be the hardest, at least mentally. She cared for him after all…

She knew what was going to happen to you, yet she did nothing to prevent it from happening. She must be punished as well..

Or perhaps he would warp to Kakariko graveyard, find Impa and deal with her. He imagined that Impa would show the most resistance, after all, she was a trained bodyguard for the princess, and she was a Sheikah…. She might be a thread to him, so he should act carefully… Surely, the eruption caused by the explosion would alert her that something wasn't right….and he needed the element of surprise….

He made up his mind, he was going to go after Impa after he had dealt with Darunia.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Finishing off the Fire Sage was a piece of cake, and Link continued his merry way of death and destruction to find the Sage of Death. He would soon rearrange her title so that it would be more fitting…The Dead Sage….

She had been expecting him. Weapons drawn, deadly glint in her red eyes, the colour of blood, she stood before him.

"What happened to you Link? What happened to the little boy who was best friends with the Noble Princess Zelda?"

"He grew up Impa, and he's ready to repay you the pain you and your princess have caused him"

"If you're looking for a fight, so be it. But I won't be a pushover."

Almost faster then light, she reached Link and tried to jam her knife between his ribs. Barely fast enough, Link sidestepped and pushed her away. Her shear strength and agility amazed him. Yes, he had known that it wouldn't be easy to finish her off, but this wasn't what he had expected.

A smirk crossed his face. Finally a challenge.

Knowing that being defensive wouldn't do him any good, Link started his own series of attacks. A look of confusion crossed Impas face. She had seen him fight better in his days as the hero of time. Perhaps his inner darkness was clouding not only his ability to judge and act, but also his ability to fight?

She managed to inflict a few minor wounds on him, but nothing serious. And that's when it hit her. He was only playing with her.

"Enjoying our fight Impa?" He said with a smirk.

"Just you wait, I'll whip that smirk of your face Fairy boy"

That's what he had waited for, he had finally managed to anger the great impassive Impa. That mistake would be her down fall. Finally letting go of his façade, Link started attacking with a lot more power and way faster. He could see that Impa was having trouble keeping up with him.

Turning around fast, he knocked her to the ground and within seconds, he held her pinned to the ground.

"Don't worry, you'll see Zelda soon enough,"

And with that he ended the life of the last Sheikah, the great Impa, Sage of death.

Only two to go…

Only two? What about….?

We'll let the fatso be…He won't pose a thread to us…
