Sono Hanabira – Twilight Princess Chapter 30
Chapter 30 Hype \o/
I decided to put the whole final thing into one chapter, mainly because it just fits today being the 1 year anniversary of this story AND because it´s the 30th chapter xD. I wrote this in 2 days even though I normally need a few weeks for a little chapter because I´m lazy O_o. So this will be the last chapter of this story, even though I´m not really done yet. I still have to rewrite a few chapters, but that could take a while xD Hope you all don´t mind the chapter being this long and practically the whole end being thrown in there xD
EXTRA NOTE: I´ll announce something since it could interest some of you. Even though I manged to write this story until the end, it sometimes felt strange to me since Twilight Princess had such another atmosphere than Sono Hanabira. It was really hard to write the characters original personality without being too much OOC. But I´m too lazy to write all the chapters new just to make all personalities right, so I´m going to start a new project some time soon where I´ll try my best to get it right. It will be a crossover again, of course with Sono Hanabira and with Nanami as the main person. This time, I´ll try to write the other characters as much as Nanami, but I´ll see when the time comes. My only problem right now is, that I don´t really know what I should choose to crossover Sono Hanabira with. I have ideas: Pokemon, Mai Hime(if you don´t know it, look it up xD) and Venetica(a really cool video game, look it up if you don´t know it). Maybe you all could help me by choosing one of those or name something completely different that you would like to read. Or maybe you don´t want a crossover and just want something normal from their school life or something, that would be okay for me too since I already have ideas for that. I hope I´ll a get a few answers, when not...then I´ll just choose myself xD Or do all of them over some time :P
I hope you all had fun with this story, even though it was poorly written sometimes xD
Have fun reading the finale...
/Nanami´s POV; 30th December/
After we finally got the last mirror piece, we immediately made our way to the desert where the mirror of twilight already waited for us.
But when we just transported us in front of the mirror, I suddenly lost my consciousness and fell down on my face. Good that I already had a feeling what it was.
,,Welcome back, Nanami. I see that you already made a lot of process since last time we met.´´, the hero of time spoke as he slowly came into my direction.
I nodded with a grin and said:,,I´m trying my best!´´
,,Then I´m going to teach you one of the last hidden skills, the jump strike.´´
The hero took out his sword, jumped in the air and made a stronger version of the normal jump attack.
,,One of the basic sword techniques is the jump attack. It inflicts great damage, but none would call it effective against multiple foes. To perform the jump strike, prepare a jump attack, but focus power in your blade. The surge the blade releases can strike all enemies around you. This is the jump strike!´´
Every time he holds his speeches, I got goose bumps and I was ready to learn something new.
Alright, let´s try it! Focus the power in your blade...and release!
As I thought that, I jumped as high as I could take and created a powerful shock wave when I slashed my sword on the ground. I got really good in those kind of things!
The hero´s shade nodded and put his sword back.
,,Very good, you´re a fast learner as always. Then, now go back into your world and do what you must do. When the time comes, I will show you the last hidden technique you need to know. Since you don´t always have the chance to find the howling stones, I´ll take this task from you and just show myself in your mind so we can speed things up. Farewell...´´
After that, he vanished just as the white field around me.
A few seconds later I managed to open my eyes and saw Midna waiting.
,,Are you two done?´´, she asked a little impatient and turned to the mirror when I nodded.
,,So this is it.´´, I murmured as I walked to the mirror.
Midna got the mirror pieces and put them into their right position.
After that, the mirror began to shine brightly with white light that surrounded us.
Before Midna could speak again, a voice began to speak that probably belonged to one of the sages.
,,We are so sorry. It was our fault, Twilight Princess.´´
It didn´t surprise me since they already called her that one time, but it doesn´t want to go into my head that Midna is actually a princess...another reason why we shouldn´t and just couldn´t be together.
,,You know...´´, Midna suddenly began and ripped me out of my thoughts.
,,The Twilight is sometimes referred as the Hereafter...but in truth it´s something completely else. It´s a peaceful place...just like yours. When the evening red shines beautifully.´´
Midna began with another one of her beautiful speeches.
,,One day, Zant came into my palace and took my powers. Normally I´m twice your height and don´t look like a minion.´´
I had to hold myself back from laughing since it was very true that she looked like that.
,,The only thing that I could keep was the shadow crystal that I wear on my head as a hat.´´
The sages made a circle around us and began to listen, too.
In my world, everyone thinks that the hero will come in the form of a holy animal. That´s why I thought...when I first saw you...that I could use you to save my world.´´
My eyes got big as I listened to her confession of her past intentions.
,,But when I began to know you better...and saw Hikari giving up her life for me...Both of you were ready to give everything you had to save your world. Now...I want to help, too. I want to help you save your world after we saved mine, I promise.´´
When Midna finished, she looked at me with her big eyes and her frown...wait, frown?
,,Midna...´, I began, laying my hands on her little shoulders.
,,I don´t care what you wanted in the past. Of course, your intentions were bad for my world and you just cared for yourself, but don´t you see it? This journey showed you to rely on others and so much more. For the last time, nothing that happened to me was your fault. It was my decision to help you, even though it was just because I wanted Yuuna back. But now it´s something more, something that has to do with our friendship. I want to help you bringing back your own world so that you can be happy. So I´m going to forgive you for everything you did or wanted to do, alright?´´, I told her, smiling when I saw tears in her eyes.
She smiled back and began to hug me, but it was a bit strange since I knew that something was growing inside of me, something I´m not going to like at all.
When I noticed how Midna was trembling, I had a feeling that I wasn´t the only one thinking that.
,,Enough of that know, we have a strange man to defeat.´´, I said and pulled away from Midna.
The mirror was open, so we could go through now.
,,Ready?´´, Midna asked me while floating above my head. I nodded as an answer.
She took my hand and leaded me through the portal and everything went black.
When I opened my eyes again, I found myself on an island with a few creatures that looked a bit like Midna.
,,Zant did this. They are from this world, just their appearance changed. So don´t attack them.´´
,,So, what do I have to do?´´, I asked Midna, since I wasn´t the one that came from here.
,,Do you see those two recesses? Two little light balls should lie there. They contain the power of my folk. We have to bring them back to their rightful place!´´
,,And where should I search?´´
,,On the right and on the left, there are each one little tower where they have to be hidden. Just step on this marking, it should bring you to the other side. Since we can´t go to the left, we have to begin with the right one.´´
I didn´t really understand everything, but Midna was here and she should know what she was talking about.
When I reached the little tower, I got in and immediately got a strange feeling.
,,That´s Zants power, just ignore it. he´s trying to scare you away.´´, Midna said, calming me down a bit before hiding in the shadow again.
The first room wasn´t really complicated, I just had to kill a few beasts I already knew, but what came next shook me to the core.
I really big head that looked like Zant appeared and threw some kind of light ball at me.
Before I got hit I ran to it and hit it a few times with my swords, then it teleported a few meters away before shooting me with those light balls again.
When I finally defeated it, a little treasure chest appeared where I found a small key that would lead me to the next room.
It wasn´t any friendlier there, everywhere was dark mist and I was scared to step into it.
,,You´re not gonna die in there. You will transform into your wolf form if you come into contact with the mist, that´s all.´´, Midna explained.
The next minutes were spend trying to kill those strange Zant heads and trying to find the key.
It´s good that these towers are just three rooms in total, so no big deal.
Well, at least I thought that until I saw a hand holding a ball that was shining with light blue light.
,,That´s it, the sol! Hit the hand with your sword and bring the sol outside.´´, Midna ordered.
Before I could go near it, another version of Zant appeared before us.
,,Phantom Zant.´´, Midna growled and asked me to kill the thing, what I eventually did after he teleported like crazy so that I couldn´t hit him.
But just when I made my first few steps, the hands began to shine red and it began to move towards me. It had to be some sort of protector!
,,Quick, put the sol into the deepening and go up the stairs to the door. You should be able to take it with your clawshot. And be quick, the hand will try to take the ball and take it back to his spot.´´
Trying my best, I ran towards the door as fast as I could and managed to go into the next room.
When I came near the mist, it disappeared itself, probably because of the ball.
The hand appeared again, but I was quick enough and ran out of the temple after completing the last room.
When I finally was outside, I was terrified and shook while I was trying to go back to the recesses.
,,Snap out of it. Yeah, the hand is creepy, but you´ve seen stranger and more dangerous things.´´
,,That´s not helping.´´, I moaned and put the first sol in it´s spot.
This half of the Twilight Realm started to be lighter and the transformed folk transformed back into their old forms.
,,The platform that can take you to the other tower should work now.´´, Midna commented and dragged me to the platform.
The other tower was just as big as the other one, so the rooms should be as small as the other ones.
This time I had to jump over moving plates to get a small key that was protected by another one of those Zant heads.
The next room was full of dark mist, Zant heads and those strange monsters I always fought when I was hunting the shadow crystals.
The fight went on and on in my wolf form until Midna ended it with a final blow.
The last room, where also the sol was, was empty, but that changed when phantom Zant appeared again and made my life more difficult than it already was.
I had to fight in my human form again, since he summoned different monsters and then hit me himself while teleporting like crazy again.
The final blow was landed nearly fifteen minutes later and I was at my end.
And I had to play chase with that hand again...uuggghh.
But that too was eventually finished after losing a few times because I didn´t find the right place to use my clawshot at or because some monster didn´t let me go!
Finally the second sol was outside and the whole realm was lighter and seemed a bit happier, now that the whole folk should be normal again.
,,You did it! We almost saved the Twilight Realm!´´, Midna said happily while wrapping her arms around my shoulders.
,,Well, we are not finished yet. Zant is still here and probably already knows that we´re here.´´, I commented as Midna quickly put distance between us while nodding.
I only looked at her with a raised eyebrow, but ignored it since we still had a task to do.
We stood before the dark mist that covered the way to the main part of this realm, but before I could try anything, my sword began to glow.
I took it out, slashed it against the mist and it actually disappeared.
,,Well, that was easy.´´, Midna grinned and I chuckled to that comment.
This part began with a big room, monsters and recesses where I had to transport sols to so that stairs would appear.
From there, I had to hit a few little globes that had to be lit together so that a platform could appear that led me to the other side of them room where I found a key.
With another transporter, I got to the door that led me outside again.
Everywhere were shadow kargaroks that attacked me as soon as I stepped outside.
They protected a wall of dark mist that hid a big room that led way up.
Using my clawshots, I made my way up and found the big treasure chest with the master key in it.
Next, I had to kill more kargaroks to use platforms without being kicked off.
They brought me to different platforms with new Zant heads on them.
They were a lot and I had to kill every one of them to finally get a small key that I needed.
The next room was a lot more complicated than the others.
Activating more globes, jumping on more than ten platforms to get to the top of the room and always getting interrupted by those creepy heads.
Then there was another room where I had to go up again using platforms and my clawshots.
After finally reaching the top without falling down, the last room before the boss room was opened.
I was greeted by a lot of monsters, so much that I had to change my form to defeat them together with Midna. It seemed that he already waited for me.
When I stood before the door that hid Zanto, my thoughts began to wander again.
/To think that killing things is so easy by now. A few months ago I never would have imagined that I had to kill or even hurt something./
Midna got me out of my thoughts and beckoned me to go in to finally that man or whatever he was.
Zant sat patiently in his seat, waiting for his guests to find their way to him.
From the beginning he probably saw all the events that happened in the last two hours.
When he saw us, he just stood up and watched us.
,,So you two are finally here.´´, Zant muttered, light anger present in his voice.
,,Don´t try to play dumb! Give me back my magic, my tribes magic!´´, Midna growled.
,,You speak of magic? Still your tongue for a moment, whelp, and I will tell you both magic and the oppression of ages. The people of our tribe...a tribe that mastered the arts of magic..were locked away in this world like insects in a cage. In the shadows we regressed, so much so that we soon knew neither anger nor hatred...nor even the faintest bloom of desire. And all of it was the fault of a useless, do-nothing royal family that had resigned itself to this miserable halt-existence! I had served and endured in that depraved household for far too long, my impudent princess. And why, you ask?´´
,,Ehm...no?´´, Midna said sarcastically and probably was as bored as I was since it sounded really cliche.
,,Because I believed I would be the next to rule our people! THAT is why! But would they acknowledge me as their king? No! And as such, I was denied the magic powers befitting our ruler. It was then, in the thrall of hatred and despair, that I turned my eyes to heavens...and found a god.´´
,,Are you finished? I don´t care what for life problems you had, but stealing the magic and try to hurt the human world too goes too far.´´
Midna wanted to charge at him, but I quickly took her hand and restrained her to do so.
,,My god had only one wish...To merge shadow and light...and make darkness!´´
,,So you just went with it, as long as you got your power to rule this folk?´´, I asked shocked.
To do all those things just to be the ruler...he´s the perfect example for craziness because of family problems.
,,My god and I share this dream...´´, Zant muttered and walked towards us.
,,You talking bullshit! Just give me back my power or we will hurt you!´´, Midna tried to scare him, but it didn´t seem to work.
When Zant came even nearer, I took my sword out, but suddenly Zant began to jump around.
Then he began to laugh and made me scared with this sudden change of character.
,,Ill end both of you, so that I can finally rule this place in peace!´´, Zant yelled out loud and flew up. Now the fight officially began!
/3rd POV/
Zant moved his arms and suddenly, all three of them were back at the forest shrine in the boss room.
Nanami quickly stood before the poisoned lake and watched as Zant flew just above the water and began to shoot shadow attacks at her.
,,I somehow have to get him here so that I can hit him with my sword.´´, Nanami thought out loud before she finally got an idea and took her boomerang she hasn´t used for a while.
She threw it right at Zant who stopped shooting magic around and landed right before Nanami´s feet before she slashed her sword directly at him.
He got damaged, but quickly stood back up and flew above the lake again.
This tactic was used for three more times, before he finally gave up, moved his arms in a strange circle again and teleported them somewhere else.
This time, they were at the goron mine where this magnetic platform used to be, so Nanami had to use her iron boots again so that she wouldn´t fall down into the lava.
Zant began to jump up and down again, but Nanami used that time to slowly walk to him and attacked him with her sword.
Again, he brought them somewhere else, but it was different this time...they were underwater in the water shrine.
Nanami quickly tried to wear her zora tunica, but only managed to get the mask so that she wouldn´t drown any second.
A giant version of Zant´s head got out of the sand and Zant himself was in the mouth.
He began to shoot Nanami, but she managed to dodge it, get him with the clawshot and attacked him with the sword again.
It seemed that this was the tactic again, but this time four heads appeared and Zant would always appear in one of them before getting attacked by Nanami again.
A few seconds later, just when Nanami began to lose her power, he teleported them back into the forest shrine again, but this time in the room of this damn monkey.
Zant jumped on the pillars that were making a circle, but Nanami immediately knew what to do.
When Zant stopped for a few seconds on one of the pillars, Nanami rolled herself against this pillar two times before he fell down and it with the sword.
,,He´s trying to confuse us with this teleporting. It´s not really working.´´, Midna commented as Nanami attacked Zant again.
,,Yeah, he´s just messing with us. I think he tries to tire me out before the real fight begins.´´
Midna nodded and hid in Nanami´s shadow again as Zant let them appear somewhere else again.
It was the boss room of the mansion in the mountains where the yetis live.
Zant slowly mutated into a giant and began to walk towards Nanami, who already began to panic.
,,Oh god, oh god, oh god...´´, Nanami said to herself as she tried to dodge the attacks of Zant.
Midna appeared and gave her the ball and chain without saying something, but she didn´t need to.
Nanami used it on Zant´s foot who began to shrink again and jumped around, hurt.
That was her chance to attack Zant with her sword!
Just as Nanami thought that he would turn into a giant again, Zant teleported them again, but not into a shirne this time.
They were right before some castle...
,,Is...is this the castle from Ganondorf?!´´, Nanami asked herself, shocked.
Midna came out and looked at the castle with an open mouth before saying:,,Yes, that´s it! But where exactly is it located when Zant can teleport us there?´´
They quickly looked around without noticing that Zant was still there and got two swords out.
There was a big field around them, a blue sky, no snow, even though it was winter.
,,Where are we? This can´t be Japan.´´, Midna muttered.
As they wanted to turn their attention to Zant, he already was right before Nanami and got her with his sword.
Nanami fell on the ground before she too got her sword out and tried to attack Zant, but he dodged.
He began to spin around like crazy and stretched the swords out so that they could hurt Nanami when she got near him.
The only thing she could was using a spin attack or the jump strike to paralyze Zant and hit him as quickly as possible.
It was a good strategy, but Zant was really quick and always hit Nanami on the legs, the arms or her shoulders. He probably tried to hit her neck.
Minutes passed and eventually, Nanami was laying on the ground and tried to block Zant´s swords.
But this was a situation where Midna interfered and hit Zant with her magic.
,,Nanami, now!´´, Midna shouted and brought Nanami back up so that she could hit Zant with the final blow.
He fell down on his back, but still managed to teleport them back into the castle in the twilight realm where he sat on the throne again.
He didn´t say anything until Nanami and Midna wanted to go out.
,,As long as Ganondorf is alive, I´ll always come back!´´
Without an answer, Midna got the shadow crystals back and immediately used them to transform her hair into two big hands that charged right at Zant!
Even though Zant seemed dead, Midna´s face turned into shock.
,,That...that was just a little bit of my power! Zant was right...as long as Ganondorf lives, I´ll never get my full power back.´´
,,Well, good that I have to do that too, huh?´´, Nanami said, trying to lighten up the mood.
Midna smirked a bit and then turned to Nanami.
,,We have to go back to Telma so that you can rest. Then, we´ll have to find the castle Ganondorf is in.´´
Then, both of them turned around and walked to the portal that brought them back to the human world.
/Nanami´s POV/
It was night and Midna was talking to Telma and the others, trying to find the castle.
Zant was finally defeated, it was one big step into peace, even though we now have another problem, Ganondorf.
Since I had time, I called my mother and everyone else to tell them that the final battle would take place soon.
Just as I sent the last message to Sara-san, Midna came into the room.
,,Nanami, we think we have an idea where the castle could be!´´, she said excited, pulling me off the bed to follow her.
Downstairs, everyone was surrounding a table with a big map on it.
,,So, where is the castle?´´, I asked, slightly scared.
,,We couldn´t find it anywhere in Japan. Midna told us that a big grass field surrounded the castle, so of course, we searched for something like that.´´, Shad began to tell me.
,,There wasn´t anything like that in Japan, so we tried to search in other countries, but didn´t find any castles that fitted your description.´´,Telma continued.
,,So, where did you found it?´´, I asked, even more confused than before.
,,We didn´t found it...but he have an idea. What if the castle is in the past?´´
At first, I didn´t get it at all, but after a few seconds silence I understood.
,,So, you want to to go to the temple of time to go the Hyrule? But it was flooded, right?´´
,,Yes, but Hyrule castle still should stand. Ganondorf could have made it into his own castle. When we go now we should be able to have enough time to find out.´´, Midna said.
I nodded and quickly grabbed my stuff before I took Midna by the hand and ran out of the door.
,,Then let´s go now. Teleport us to the gate.´´, I told her and transformed into my wolf form.
/Temple of Time(Past); 31th December/
We went out and saw the town flooded, but the castle was still standing without any damage, probably because Ganondorf protected it with some kind of spell.
A big orange shield surrounded the castle, that had to be it.
,,Midna, can you destroy that?´´, I asked her, but Midna already went to the castle and took out the shadow crystals.
,,I can with the power of those. Could you try to catch me? When I´m done transforming I´ll be unconscious for a little while.´´
I nodded and stepped back a bit when we reached the castle.
Midna transformed into a giant...something...and destroyed the shield with a big spear.
Just as she thought, she fell down into my arms when she transformed back and needed a little while until she woke up.
,,Is it gone?´´, she asked a bit out of breath, but smiled when I nodded "yes".
,,Now it´s time for the final mission, huh?´´, I commented as we stepped onto the front yard.
When we reached the door, which was locked, the sun came out, telling us that a new day began.
Since we couldn´t go inside, we had to find a key somewhere in the back yard that had two entrances, right and left.
The left one was locked, too, so I had to use the right one.
Suddenly, I felt a sensation I knew perfectly...the hero´s shade called to me.
I found myself back at our training place, where he already waited for me.
,,You´re back. It is time for you to learn the last and strongest hidden skill. I hope you are ready for this.´´, he said and nodded when he saw my excited grin.
,,The great spin! You have at your disposal the basic sword technique known as the spin attack. You now have in you the ability to magnify the power of your spin attack. But the only time you can draw out that power is when your life energy is brimming full. You can´t use it if you don´t have enough power left in you. Understood?´´
The hero´s shade concentrated all his power and made a giant spin attack that made me lose my balance.
,,Now you.´´, he said and watched as I copied him by making a large spin attack that made a giant shock wave, just like it did when he used it.
,,Great, you mastered it! Now, you have to do one last job, right? In that case, return to your world and train yourself further. Although I accepted life as the hero, I could not convey the lessons of that life to those who came after. At last, I have eased my regrets...I thank you, Nanami. Farewell!´´
Slowly, he disappeared, but not fast enough so that he could hear my last words to him.
,,Thank you so much for training me! I´ll never forget that.´´
After that, I blacked out and was back with Midna who already waited for me.
We walked to the right way that led to the backyard...
It was pretty empty instead of a few trees, so I was confused at how I should find something here.
When I wanted to go back, a magical barrier appeared and trapped me and Midna.
,,So he does know that we´re here.´´, Midna said before a familiar silhouette, King Bulblin.
This time, he just had his giant ax he would use for the fight.
He began to walk towards, but since I knew that he wasn´t really quick, I ran around him and hit him with different hidden skills because normal attacks don´t work on him with his thick armor.
One time he actually hit me because I didn´t watch him right, so I had a big scar on my left shoulder.
Just when I wanted to hit the final blow with the jump strike, King Bulblin stopped and yelled:,, That´s enough!´´ with a dark voice. So he can speak?!
He grabbed at his belt and gave me a small key, probably for the other side of the backyard.
,,I follow the strongest...My folk always did that!´´ Then he rode away with his wild boar.
Now that I had the key, I went to the other side and was greeted with fire arrows.
They left side of the backyard was full of towers and walls of wood.
At first I didn´t have a clue what I could do, but I saw a boar near me, so I rode him and destroyed the walls and towers on my way.
When we reached the end, the boar threw me off and went away.
There wasn´t anything, expect a small gate that had a treasure chest inside.
It wasn´t that complicated to get it, I only had to use my boomerang on the pillars in the right order to open it and get the map.
I tried to think of what to do next, but Midna came out and pointed at a small hole on the wall.
I should be able to dig under it as a wolf, so I just did that to appear in a graveyard.
The whole yard was empty, but when I looked around, I noticed a treasure chest on a wall, but I couldn´t reach it, not even Midna since it was somehow protected.
And if that wasn´t enough, staltroops began to attack us whenever they could.
There were two statues that I could use with my copy rod, but they were hidden my a gate that I had to open with two torches being lit, but it was raining right now and the fire would go out.
There had to be a way to stop the rain or at least lit the torches without them being extinguished.
Well, there was a big broken stone that said:,,The cursed knight rests before the holy tree".
They probably meant this really big tree where I had to blow away a stone to activate a switch.
Another gate opened where I got new oil to fill my lantern with.
Also, the rain stopped when I lit the torch right beside, so I had the chance to light the torches at the gate on the other side.
I ran as fast as I could since the rain surely wouldn´t stop forever, but I managed to do it in time and got the statues to move just right so that I could open the treasure chest where the key for the front door was.
Midna and I went to the big door that would lead us into the castle, but just when we wanted to go in, we suddenly heard bells...wait, were those wedding bells?!
,,Don´t tell me that the wedding is starting now!´´, I said with shock and looked at Midna who also was a bit surprised.
,,Well...then again, it´s the last day before new year, right? He probably didn´t want to wait until tomorrow, especially because we two are here.´´, Midna explained with a pained expression.
,,Then we have to hurry!´´, I exclaimed and ran into the main hall.
/3rd POV/
The main hall was really empty, except for a few chandeliers.
Nanami only made a few steps before a magical barrier appeared, together with a few bokoblins and dynafols'. After they were slayed, Nanami shot up to the balcony with the help of the clawshots and the chandeliers.
She did that until she got to a door that led to the next enemy, a darknut.
,,Argh, when enemies are appearing all the time, I´ll never be at the wedding in time!´´, Nanami rages, but still began to fight the darknut.
The fight was longer than she expected and was even angrier now.
,,Nanami, chill a bit. It won´t help you if you´ll have a rage trip now.´´
,,You...think so? And why do I feel the power of Dark? Maybe I should just...´´
Before Midna could stop her, Nanami was surrounded by dark mist.
Her hair was now dark, her tunic was black and her red pupils looked around.
,,Don´t worry, I´ll end this quick.´´, Dark said with a grin and began to ran.
Dark ignored little enemies and killed every big one that tried to get in her way.
A few room later she was outside and saw the big treasure chest on the other side of a bridge, but was stopped by two Aeralfos' which later payed for that.
Then, other enemies wanted to shoot her, but a hawk came out of nowhere and attacked them.
Dark looked down and saw the Telma´s group, waving at her.
She grinned at them, got the boss key and ran back inside.
Since Dark was really clever and quickly solved the needed puzzles and killed even more enemies.
That person really showed Nanami´s rage that she can´t really show herself.
When she was in a room with blocks as ground with a few abysses, she began to breath hard and slowly changed back to Nanami.
Before she was fully away, Midna came out and asked:,,Why exactly are you helping her instead of trying to control her or something?´´
Dark looked at her with red cheeks and said:,,Just because I´m Nanami´s dark side doesn´t mean that I´m entirely evil. We both want to kill Ganondorf, so I´m doing just that if Nanami needs help.´´
With that, she disappeared and left a confused Midna to a confused Nanami, who quickly understood what happened again.
When Nanami almost fell down the abyss because she didn´t look right, she changed into a wolf and was shocked at what she saw.
Dead soldiers showed them the right way to a staircase with traps where Nanami had to use her spinner to get to the top.
After using her clawshots to get over a completely broken staircase, she saw the door that would lead her to Ganondorf.
But it was protected by a last darknut which was quickly destroyed with a bit of Dark´s power.
After that, the door opened and brought Nanami to a really big staircase that led to the top of the castle. Music was loudly booming as Nanami and Midna saw Yuuna and Ganondorf standing at the end of the room with a priest behind them.
,,Are you ready? This is clearly the last battle.´´, Midna said and watched as the guests, in other words a lot of monsters, yelled something about "kissing already", even though the priest was in the middle of the speech.
,,Yes, I am! I worked months for this! Ganondorf has to be stopped, for more the one reason!´´
Nanami wanted to go in, but Midna stopped her by taking her hand.
,,Nanami, please don´t get too cocky now. One wrong move and you´ll be dead. Me, Yuuna and others clearly don´t want that.´´
The girl stopped and looked at Midna, a confused and nervous expression on her face.
,,That reminds me...there´s something I wanted to talk to you about...´´, Nanami began, but suddenly stopped when she heard the priest say:,,Ganondorf, do you take Yuuna as your bride?´´
The "Yes, I do" got Nanami´s attention and she snapped.
She got up, took Midna and ran to the entrance of the tower where the wedding took place.
The door was kicked open violently and Nanami yelled:,,I´m sorry, but I have a little problem with this ceremony!´´
/Nanami´s POV/
The priest stopped, as well did Ganondorf and the rest of the monsters.
Yuuna looked at me with sparkling eyes and a smile that got my heart jumping around again.
,,It seems that you actually did it. You killed all my puppets, managed all temples and shrine and even killed Zant...´´
All the monsters suddenly disappeared, leaving our small group.
,,Let´s end this, Ganondorf!´´, Midna and I said at the same time, glaring at him.
He just smirked and looked up at a statue...wait, was that Hikari up there?!
,,When Zelda´s incarnation gave Midna her power, she immediately was made into my new guest. Don´t misunderstand, she has a special job to do.´´
Midna didn´t listen to him and flew up to Hikari, trying to give her back her magic.
But before anything could get done, Hikari opened her eyes and floated down to us with her sword pointed to us.
,,She´s here to put an end to you!´´, Ganondorf yelled at me, grabbed Yuuna and sat on his throne, keeping a grip on MY Yuuna!
I growled and saw as Midna was thrown away, leaving me alone with Ganondorf´s new puppet.
Hikari didn´t waste any time and directly flew at me, trying to hit me with her sword, but I dodged.
Next, she held up her sword and created a golden triangle on the ground.
I wasn´t quick enough and was shocked, so it had to be some kind of energy field.
I heard Yuuna´s shocked yell, so I quickly got myself together and began to dodge better.
Now she loaded a powerball and shot it at me, but I slashed my sword against it and threw it back at her.
This game of "ping-pong" held on for a while, but the attack eventually damaged Hikari and the thing began from the start.
The next minutes were spent dodging and playing ping-pong and finally I managed to defeat Hikari.
Ganondorf let out a yell and seemed to have fallen unconscious while Midna came up and used her giant hands to get the bad magic out of Hikari.
Midna leaned herself on my shoulder and smirked at me, which I gave back.
It didn´t take long for Yuuna, or rather Onee-sama, to reach us and hug me as strong as she could.
I missed her hug so much...finally I could smell that heavenly scent of hers.
,,Nanami! My Nanami! I missed you so much!´´
As she continued to blabber on, I saw Midna looking at us with a sad look...so I wasn´t the only one with strange thoughts, huh?
But now that I had Onee-sama back in my arms...I couldn´t believe how happy I was.
A bubble of happiness appeared inside of me and made somersaults.
I smiled and grabbed Midna by her hand so that she could join us, but that happy atmosphere didn´t hold up long.
We heard a loud groaning behind us, it was a dark mist that slowly transformed into Ganon.
He had a big white scar on his belly, so that had to be his weak spot.
,,Onee-sama, get out as quick as you can. Midna and I will fight Ganon in this time.´´
She kissed me on the cheek and ran out as we got ready.
Ganon growled and suddenly disappear through a portal that changed it´s position every second.
,,What do I have to do?´´, I asked a bit scared, but Midna answered me quickly.
,,Didn´t you see that thing on his forehead? You probably have to hit it with your arrows.´´
I nodded, got out my bow and followed every portal with my eyes until one of them turned red and Ganon came out of it.
I quickly shot his forehead and he fell down, but got up after I hit him a few times with my sword.
That had to be done a second time before he roared and the crystal on his head was broken.
,,Nanami, better change into your wolf form. I can help you dealing with him.´´, Midna said and sat on my back when I turned into a wolf.
Just in time, Ganon ran to us, but Midna used her hair-hand to stop him and threw him to the side.
This was my chance to attack his scar a few times before we had to repeat that a few times.
Just when I wanted to damage him again, he stood up quicker than before and hit my so hard that I was thrown against a wall. It hurt a lot since I was way smaller than him.
I couldn´t stand up again, but Midna saved me when Ganon wanted to bite me with his giant fangs.
Ganon was defeated and slowly turned into green mist that disappeared.
Midna suddenly looked up to Hikari, who was seated on the thrown since we started fighting.
We quickly ran to her as she slowly opened her eyes, while Midna began to glow what had to be the magic Hikari gave to Midna to save her.
She smiled at us and wanted to stand up, but we suddenly heard a laugh behind us.
Green smoke in the form of Ganondorfs head appeared and laughed at us.
Midna glared at him and wanted to do something, but the she smiled and brought me and Hikari together.
,,Midna, what are you trying to do?!´´, I asked her alarmed, but before I could ask more questions, she just kissed me...on the mouth.
I was shocked, but still tried to reach out to her, but she just teleported us outside the castle.
All we could here was explosions and saw as Midna transformed into that giant again, but all disappeared.
Onee-sama came to us and hugged me from behind while we watched the destroyed castle.
Did...Midna just kiss me? So she actually had the same thoughts as me...now I was even more confused than before.
But my thoughts were interrupted when we heard a horse in the distance.
We looked into the direction and saw Ganondorf on his black horse...holding...Midna´s mask...
He...he just destroyed it...but what about Midna...was...was she...?!
Hikari tapped my shoulder and pointed at Sora who was suddenly beside me, beside her was Onee-sama with my horse flute in her hand.
I suddenly felt my tears...so that´s why they looked at me so sad.
Ganondorf laughed loudly and rode along with some ghosts away from us.
I would get him...I would revenge Midna!
Hikari stopped me and said:,,There´s no time for getting angry! Try to keep calm and use Sora to follow Ganondorf. I will come with you so that I can shot him with my light arrows. That should stop him for a while so that you can hit him with your sword.´´
I sniffed back my tears, nodded and got onto Sora with Hikari.
,,Onee-sama, try to keep distance from us, ok? I ´don´t want you to get hurt.´´
Onee-sama watched me with a sad smile and tried to hide.
Was surely a funny task when she was still wearing that beautiful wedding dress...concentrate!
Hikari got her arrows ready as I began to follow Ganondorf, but his ghosts always come in our way and push me off Sora when I´m not quick enough.
But when Hikari actually managed to hit Ganondorf, I hit him with my sword, but didn´t seem to make a lot of damage. He wouldn´t even fall off his horse!
This hunt went for a while...actually, half an hour by now.
,,Hikari, now!´´, I yelled as she shot her last arrow at Ganondorf who finally fell off his horse.
But now he seemed really angry and glared with us, even though he was still smirking somehow.
Hikari and I got off our horse and Ganondorf came into out direction.
,,Hikari, run now! Go to Onee-sama and hide together. Ganondorf and I have something to finish!´´
She nodded and met Onee-sama, who was already running into our direction.
They walked a few steps away from us as Ganondorf made a magic barrier around us.
,,Girl...this will be our final fight! I have enough of playing around. We´ll finish this with a good old sword fight.´´, he said with clenched teeth.
Both of us took out our sword while Hikari and Onee-sama stood before the barrier, watching us.
I was already pretty wounded from the fights before and already had trouble standing right.
This surely wouldn´t be fun at all.
/3rd POV/
Ganondorf slowly walked towards Nanami who just trembled a bit and tried to look brave. He slashed his sword right to Nanami who countered it by hitting her own sword against it, making it a strength competition which Nanami quickly lost. Ganondorf used that chance to kick her in the face, giving her a big bruise. Nanami stood up and kept moving until he attacked again, but this time she got away and used it to hit him with a spin attack. This cause him to stumble what gave Nanami a chance to damage Ganondorf on his back. The man quickly grabbed Nanami by her throat and held her up while trying to suffocate her. She quickly used her sword to cut Ganondorfs wrist and got a few steps away to control her breathing.
/Oh no, I´m starting to get dizzy. I have to find a way to end this quickly!/, Nanami thought and ran to Ganondorf and slashed her sword right at him. He just catched the sword with his hand and let the girl fly into the sky. But Nanami wasn´t finished yet and used the gravity to start a powerful attack from above. She hit Ganondorf on his head, but not enough to cut it. The tall man growled and rammed his elbow into Nanami´s stomach. She coughed blood and fell down on the ground. As Ganondorf came nearer, his sword raised for the final blow, Nanami saw her life playing before her eyes. Was this really the end? Would she actually die here, even though she managed all the way to come this far.
/So everything was for nothing. I may have defeated a few monsters, but couldn´t kill this man./
Her last thoughts were interrupted by a strange light she could see from her nearly closed eyes. A golden light appeared in front of her and came nearer.
,,Ha...ha...why is that light here?!´´, Ganondorf said somewhat panicked.
The light surrounded Nanami, healing her strongest injuries and giving her new courage.
/Hero, it´s time for you to use your full power. Take this gift from the gods and fulfill your destiny!/, the voice spoke.
It wasn´t the only one who spoke to Nanami, since another voice began to speak. The one from Dark, her other side.
/I may be your other half, you dark side, but I still want to kill Ganondorf, so I´ll help you out with my power, too. Take it. But after that, I won´t be so nice to you anymore!/
Now, dark mist surrounded her too, giving her new strength!
Ganondorf, Yuuna and Hikari had no idea what was going on, but two of them liked it.
All the light and mist disappeared, leaving a new Nanami to fight.
Her hair was half golden half black, both her eyes gold and red, and her sword was shining brightly with golden light and dark mist.(A/N: I really like transformations like this, and since Nanami isn´t the strongest hero, I gave her this power up :P Hope that´s ok xD)
,,What in the world happened?!´´, Ganondorf yelled and ran to Nanami, who just moved away and slashed her sword right at his eyes. After that, she quickly moved behind him and tried to hit him. But Ganondorf countered the attack with his sword and pushed Nanami away, starting an attack on his own. He was really fast, gaining power from his part of the triforce. But Nanami also had her new triforce powers, which she used to see Ganondorf´s attack and ducked at the right time. With this chance right in front of her, she used her newest learned technique.
,,Great Spin!´´, Nanami yelled and used all of her power in this strike. She created a massive shock wave and damaged Ganondorf quite a bit. He stumbled and then fell on the ground after Nanami attacked him even more. He was laying there, trying to get up again, but before he could even try, Nanami jumped into the air and made the final blow with the "Ending Blow".
,,Now we finally end this!´´, Nanami yelled and finally stabbed her sword right through Ganondorf.
The man yelled and the magical barrier disappeared.
Even though he just got stabbed, Ganondorf slowly stood up again and began to rant on.
,,The fight...just began!´´, he laughed, but then his triforce disappeared and left him being only human.
Before Ganondorf could even make another move, Zant, who was still linked to the him, made a small move, killing the man by braking his neck.
Ganondorf just stood there, lifeless.
Nanami got out the sword and fell down, but still saw Hikari and Yuuna running to her as she fell unconscious with a smile.
/Nanami´s POV/
A woke up because of raised voices, but they stopped when I groaned.
,,Nanami?! Nanami, please wake up!´´, a voice spoke to me, which I recognized as Onee-sama´s.
When I opened my eyes, I saw her looking at me with teary eyes.
,,Did...did I do it? Is it finally over?´´, I asked, looking around, seeing familiar faces.
,,You did it, Nanami-chan!´´, Sara said happily while hugging Kaede-san´s arm.
My mother came to me and kissed me on my forehead. ,,I´m so proud at you, dear.´´
,,Wait, how did we get back?´´, I asked them confused, since I realized that I´m laying in my bed at home, in Tokyo.
,,Hikari and Midna helped us two getting out of the past and brought you here.´´, Onee-sama said.
Wait a moment...,,Midna is alive?!´´, I yelled shocked and immediately got out of bed.
Before they could stop me, I ran down the stairs and go out of the house to see a really big, beautiful woman starring into the sky.
Orange hair, black clothing...and those orange eyes...,,Midna?´´, I spoke to the woman who quickly turned around when she heard my voice.
After a few seconds of silence, she smiled and hugged me tight.
,,I´m happy to see you healthy. You actually did it.´´
,,So it really is you.´´, I said with a smile and hugged her back.
We moved away and smiled at each other.
,,Well, there´s not much to say anymore. You finished your task and helped me saving my home. I will never forget that. But...I still have to tell you something, Nanami.´´
Just in that moment, Onee-sama and my mother came out of the house.
,,Oh, Midna. What are you two talking about?´´, Onee-sama asked her nicely.
Midna grinned and said:,,Confessing my love to Nanami.´´ Silence.
,,WHAT?!´´, both Onee-sama and I yelled as Midna came near me again.
,,It´s the truth, I fell in love with Nanami while we were on our journey together. I think Nanami already knew that since I kissed her before Ganondorf nearly killed me.´´
I could already feel the dark aura from Onee-sama...
,,Nanami, please say something. I know you have something to tell me...or rather us.´´, she said as she looked at Onee-sama nervously.
,,Well...´´, I began. ,,I have to admit...that I felt something for Midna while we were traveling together. But...´´
The dark aura reached it´s maximum and made me tremble...
,,I don´t think that Midna and I could have a good relationship. Firstly, I realized how much I love Onee-...Yuuna when I finally got her back from Ganondorf. Secondly, we two live in different worlds, so...´´
Midna frowned and hugged me quickly before moving away again.
,,I understand that, Nanami. Yes, I love you...but it could never work. You have your own life here in this world. Also, I have a folk to lead since I´m a princess.´´
I smiled and turned to Yuuna who was nearly crying.
She hugged me with all her force and made us fall down.
,,I can´t believe it! How can you do this to me?!´´
She ranted on about how her parents are the worst and she couldn´t believe that I actually thought about going out with someone else. Midna and I looked at each other and started to laugh. Yes, everything was going to be fine.
As we went back into my house, fireworks started to go off, reminding us that a new year had begun.
/Epilogue, Nanami´s POV/
Our small group was back at the mirror chamber, standing before the Mirror of Twilight where Midna was about to leave.
,,I thank you all, especially you Nanami.´´
As she said that, Yuuna hugged me from behind and shot a glare towards Midna.
A few days passed since I woke up, and Midna and I came to the conclusion that we would be best friends, since it clearly wouldn´t work.
Yuuna spoke to us again and asked me if I had any remaining feelings for Midna.
I answered her completely honest, which was yes, I still had feelings for her, but as a good friend...or maybe a sister.
The romantic interest slightly began to crack when Yuuna began to be clingy again and always told me how much she loved me and reminded me why I loved her so much.
Of course, when I explained that to Midna, I also had a talk with Yuuna alone about my thoughts of us and how we just jumped into a relationship without knowing much about one another, what probably was why I had those feelings...because Midna and I somehow had a bonding because we spent so much time together getting to know us.
She understood, promised me to start anew together and kissed me, what cleared up my thoughts about maybe not loving her.
Now, it was time to say goodbye to my probably best friend/sister I ever had and will have.
Before Midna could say another word, Dark suddenly appeared right beside me.
,,Wait a moment, don´t forget me.´´, she said with a charming smile towards Midna.
,,Did I miss something?´´, I asked, confused and shocked at the same time.
Dark didn´t say anything and just moved beside Midna, taking her hand.
,,Just because you have someone else doesn´t mean I have to go with you. I´m your other side, but if you´ll let me, I´ll go with this gorgeous woman and help her. Then I can´t bother you anymore.´´
This whole situation just got really bizarre...but oh well.
,,If Midna is ok with it, I don´t really care.´´, I commented and got another shock as Midna smirked and moved her arms around Dark´s waist.
,,I think I can live with this.´´, she said and moved towards the portal...but then turned around.
She smiled, suddenly began to cry and used one of her tears to fly to the mirror.
,,Midna...what are you doing?´´, I asked her, but she just walked backwards with Dark towards the portal.
,,Nanami, it was great meeting you. I´ll never forget you and our memories.´´
I tried to run to her, but she disappeared and the mirror was destroyed, completely this time.
Hikari came to my side and told me that we still had to bring the master sword back.
I nodded, took Yuuna´s hand and brought her to the temple of time in our time.
The master sword was back into it´s rightful place and we went back to Tokyo where Hikari went to school with us.
We all began to go back to the normal life, but I´ll never forget my adventures.
Finally, peace arrived in this world, and I couldn´t wait to finally begin my future.
I actually finished the story (╯°□°）╯)
I´m actually quite happy about how it ended :D Hopefully you all are too xD Even though a little part of me wanted Nanami to end up with Midna, I just couldn´t do it to my YuuNami heart.
This chapter is 14 pages long in open office...a lot of work I mostly did on one day.
Well, that´s done now. Maybe I will see you all in another story of mine...maybe on the holidays when I have enough time again xD
