chapter 9

Link's group rush through the forests to get to the Sacred Grove. Link, Agitha, and Ashei had the easiest time getting into the grove. Link shifted to his wolf form and leaped from platform to platform with ease; Agitha used her parasol to glide, and Ashei quickly skipped with ease. Shad was a clumsy fool and often almost fell off by losing his balance, which made Link leap back to help him. Telma was busy yelling at a Golden Cucoo for not being able to support her weight, and Auru simply refused to try to jump.

After about 20 minutes, Ashei and Link finally got the 3 over the platforms.

"I swear! I am never doing that again!" Auru swore, covered in sweat and still shaking, even for a big guy.

"You know we have to go over it again to leave, right?" Ashei said calmly. Auru just paled slightly before tossing his cannon over his shoulder and sighing. Everyone took a minute to get their breath, though Agitha was full of energy after sitting and waiting for the rest of the group to make it past the platforms.

As they walked through, Link suddenly stopped and gasped.

"What's wrong hun?" Telma asked.

"This place has changed. Walls that had been closed have been ripped open. Trees that kept different sections of the grove apart, are gone. The Kibishi and Ganondorf have destroyed this place..." Link's eyes took in the area, wide and pale.

"This place is no longer Sacred..." Shad noted, writing it down quickly in his book, earning an angry nudge from Auru. "How horrible!" Agitha cried, wiping her eyes. "Agitha.. honey don't cry." Telma went over and hugged her.

"I can feel them.. the sacred bugs, they are in pain. So many of their kind gone, it hurts them." Agitha sobbed. Telma moved her and Agitha over and tried to comfort her. Shad continued writing away in his book, and Auru and Ashei walked over to Link.

"What do you wanna do boy?" Auru asked.

Link clenched his hands. "I am going to save Hyrule. I am going to kill Ganondorf and free Dark."

"Aren't they in the same body?" Ashei pointed out.

"I'll figure it out." Link said shortly.

Link took out his sword and shield, sad it wasn't the Master Sword, and walked deeper into the grove, Ashei and Auru walking silently behind him. They were just about to enter the room where the Puzzle Link had had to solve a year ago when they ducked behind some bushes when they caught sight of some large Kibishi.

"How many are there?" Auru asked.

"I have counted 8." Came Ashei's reply. "Crap!" Link growled quietly. "2 was hard enough, how are we suppose to take care of 8?" He sighed.

"Auru, can you help me take care of them?" Ashei asked. "You doubt my abilities warrior?" Auru asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Of course not. Link, you go try to get the Master Sword while we take care of these guys." Ashei said. Link gaped at her. "Are you insane? You two will die!"

Ashei gave Link a small smile. "I am willing to fight to the death for this world, to protect it." She said.

"As am I." Auru said gruffly. Link just stared at the two with a sad look. "You guys.. I can't let you do that."

"Well it ain't like the other three are gonna come help. We gotta do what we can boy! You are the only one who can wield the Master Sword and it is way stronger than that feeble little sword you got from Malo."

"Be careful what you say Auru, that kid can sense when someone says crap about his stuff." Ashei said.

~.~.~.~.~

Meanwhile in Kokoriko Village, Malo wakes up with a jerk. Malo sits up and narrows his small eyes. "You are gonna get it Auru." The small child says, before returning to his nap.

~.~.~.~.~

Auru suddenly shivers. "What was that? I just got goosebumps."

Ashei just grinned at him, earning herself a scowl.

"Alright.. if that is what you guys want to do, then I can't argue with you." Link sighed, scratching the back of his head.

Both Ashei and Auru nodded, and got their weapons ready. Just as they were about to jump out of their hiding place, suddenly a large green glowing beetle broke through the trees. "You all must die for hurting the bugs in this place!" Agitha screamed, sitting on top of the beetle. Telma was holding a frying pan above her head whooping, and a scared Shad was holding onto the beetle for dear life.

The Kibishi all turned at the sound before the giant beetle rammed into them, knocking them all over the place like a bowling ball hitting pins. Ashei and Auru cheered before rushing forward to help. Link took a deep breath before standing up and shifting into a wolf. He stuck to the shadows as he edged his way towards the opening of the shrine, hoping not to attract any Kibishi.

The beetle disappears in a flash of light as Agitha floats to the ground with her parasol, before turning around and whipping it up, knocking a Kibishi nearby in the throat. Telma walked calmly through the battle field, shooting arrows straight in the eyes of any Kibishi unfortunate enough to feel her sting. "Shad honey! Get a hold of yourself and help us!" She called out.

Shad popped his head up from behind a bush that he had retreated to shortly after the beetle had disappeared. "I've never fought before! I don't think I can do it!" Shad called back. "Get off your bum or no drinks for you from my bar for the rest of your life!" Telma threatened. Shad jumped at this and sighed. "Fine!" He stood up and looked around, noticing a statue holding a large hammer with a hole in the center of its body. Shooting the ball of light from the dominion rod at the statue, Shad came out of hiding with the large statue right behind him.

A Kibishi nearby noticed Shad and growled, slowly stalking towards him. When the Kibishi got close enough, and was about to strike at the man, Shad let out a nervous yell as he swung the rod down. The statue followed his movements and slammed the hammer down, knocking the Kibishi flat on the ground.

The Kibishi started to stand again, growling, before Shad swung the hammer down again, knocking it down yet again. He did it a few times until the large hammer hit the Kibishi's skull, killing it. Shad was sweating like crazy and fell to his knees.

"I can't do this." He sighed. He turned and watched the others fight it out with the Kibishi.

Ashei was a quick one; she slid pass the Kibishi's attacks with ease, whipping around one and slashing at it with every chance she got, before finally bringing it down.

Nearby Auru was shooting at a Kibishi with his large cannon as the Kibishi charged at him with rage in its eyes. Auru stood there calmly, watching the giant Kibishi rushing at him. Shad opened his mouth to yell for Auru to run, but was frozen at the sight.

Auru waited until the Kibishi was almost on top of him, before dropping his cannon and reaching back to his 2-handed sword, swinging it forward with one hand and cutting the Kibishi in half. The Kibishi gurgled and fell to the ground in two pieces.

Auru straightened himself and placed the large sword on his back, glancing ant Shad and winking. "Ain't nothin' to it boy!" Auru hooted, turning around and rushing towards another Kibishi shooting at it with his cannon.

Nearby Agitha had a ton of golden bugs flying around her. A few butterflies flapped air into her parasol and lifted her up. She landed gracefully on a tree before pulling out her white staff. Twirling it in front of her, golden summoning circles appeared at her feet as she summoned another bug.

A Giant Golden Butterfly came out of nowhere; an image, as it went right through trees and next to Agitha. She hopped on it (despite it being able to go through things, it was able to hold her) and the Butterfly hovered over a group of Kibishi, flapped its wings, and caused a small tornado in the middle of them.

Agitha giggled and jumped off the butterfly, her parasol landing her lightly onto the ground. An angry Kibishi roared and lifted up a claw to strike at her. Agitha simply smiled at it and stabbed it swiftly with the tip of her parasol. The Kibishi growled and backed up, black blood seeping out the tiny poke. It swiped at Agitha angrily, which she avoided by jumping onto its paw and using the breeze to float away.

When Agitha was a few feet from the Kibishi, she switched her parasol with her staff and twirled it, summoning her giant green beetle. Before the Kibishi knew what hit it, a Giant Beetle landed right on top of it, crushing it. The beetle disappeared, and Agitha smiled and skipped to the other kibishi forming around Ashei and Auru.

Shad took a deep breath and ran towards the remaining four Kibishi, determined not to be the one person in a group who hides. All four of them stood back to back ,facing off the last of the Kibishi in the Grove.

Meanwhile, Link had edged his way into the room with the Master Sword, and his eyes widened at the sight. A giant Kibishi, much much larger than the others, had its back turned to Link, and was standing right in front of the Sword he so desperately needed.

The large beast turned around slowly and looked at Link. A gruff voice spoke, "Well hello there Hero." The Kibishi said. Link froze. "Ganondorf?" He gaped. Ganondorf raised his large black Kibishi body and let out a growl. "Indeed. This body has served its purpose well." Ganondorf was possessing a huge wolf like body, but it was distorted. The body was a wreck, and barely noticeable as the once beautiful black wolf Link had known.

Link's eyes widened. "Is that Dark's Body? What the hell did you do to him?" Link yelled. Ganondorf chuckled. "Oh do not worry little twerp, he is still in here, just incapable of fending for himself."

"LET HIM GO!" Link screamed, pulling out his Shield and cheap sword. Ganondorf turned his muzzle down and growled; Sharp teeth showing. "You really care for this useless shadow that much? Well there is no way you can save him. So give it up boy."

Link's eyes watered as he gritted his teeth. "I am going to save him! And I am going to kill you once and for all!" He yelled.

"Dark! Can you hear me! I am going to save you!" Link screamed, running forward and clashing sword to claw with Ganondorf.

Dark sat up in the dark space of his mind with a start. L-Link? He thought. Dark jumped up and peered through his possessed eyes, gasping when he saw Link facing off with Ganondorf.

Dark had no strength left to try to get his body back, so he could only watch in silence at Link's useless attacks.

Link clashed with Ganondorf again. His large Kibishi body proved a nuisance when Link slid underneath his belly and slashed at it with his sword. He didn't do more than a scratch, but Ganondorf roared at this and tried to step on Link with his giant paws. Link rolled and moved out from underneath him, landing straight in front of the Master Sword in its pedestal.

Ganondorf whirled around and roared. "You shall not win Hero!" He growled, and then was shocked when he notice said Hero holding the Master Sword straight at him.

Blast it all! I forgot about the Master Sword being here! Ganondorf growled in his mind. Dark only smirked at this.

"This ends now Ganondorf!" Link yelled, his voice echoing through the Grove. "I will kill you, and I will save Dark and Hyrule!"

Ganondorf only gave a wolfy grin, and Dark's heart sunk in his chest. If Link kills Ganondorf, I die as well... Dark could only watch as the two faced off.

Regardless of what happens, Dark knew that he would always be ok with whatever happens.

In mere seconds, the two, Ganondorf and Link, rushed at each other, anger in both of their faces.
