Link rode on his faithful steed, Epona, riding threw the misty morning green fields, of Hyrule, wind hitting his warm face as the sun slowly began to rise. Link wore his green tunic, that was said that the young hero had once warn. Link gently hit the sides of Epona with his ankles, making her go much faster, riding the huge green hills, and high up over the sun rise. His master sword clung to his side, and his bow and arrow hung from his back, along with a quiver with a dozen arrows. Link thought of all of the days that past.... Hyule became safe from the evil dark dwellers of Gannon, and Zant. Link's thought wandered on... For some small reason he had a hard time keeping one thing off his mind... was Hyrule truly safe? will it walways remain safe from Gannon's darkness? will he come again? Link couldn't have anything else to think about, but to one little fact...His new friend that had just resently had gone back to her own world...Midna, the Twilight Princess... he couldn't stop thinking about her for some strange reason. Epona stopped ontop of the green hill, soulhoutting the sunrise, being a shadow in the distance from the fields. The wind whipped his short brown hair back, the wind also whipping back Epona's main. Link gazed out over the sunrise....his mind wandering...he would nbever, ever see Midna again...he was clear of that one, and Hryule...it was safe? He hoped. for now. His mind went to all of the children at his village, Ordon... Colin, who now had the curouge to stand up for himself...a smile formed on Link's face as he remembered what Colin had said, "Someday, i want to be just like you, Link..." He remembered the shy look, on the small boys face. Now, he had a little sibbling, and his father a high commander for the Hyrule soldiers. And then Talo...such an adventuriss child, never could link look at a fight, and just picture him in it, laughing, and yelling, "Ahha! i have you now!" And then it went to Milo....such a strange one, buit Milo helped Link in so many ways... selling him items he needed for his journy, making donations for the re-building of the bridge...and even building a shop in caste town. Link sighed softly as he remembered Ilia...how she had been kidnapped, and how he had gone to save her....he remembered how worried her mother was. Link patted Eponas main, and said softly, "What do we do now, Epona?" the horse neighed softly. Link's brown eyes looked back up to the sunrise.... Link knew he wasn't done saving Hyrule....he just knew it, this...just felt too safe to be...not safe. Link closed his eyes, and started to whisper something softly to himself..."What do i do now, Midna? what would you want to do now?" of course he knew, she is running her Twilight Palace as princess....maybe she wouldn't want him to do anything...and why was he asking her? why would he ask her? He sighed softly, his eyes opening up again, he turned Epona around, and started to run down the grassy plaigns of green grass.
Later, that same day, aorund in the afternoon, Link had ridden to Kakariko Village. He pulled Epona over, and got off her back, tying her up to a pole. He walked around the small village of Kakariko, he looked at the old Milo's shop, of course, he was probably at his knew shop in Castle Town. Link saw Renado, the village 'Cordinator' as he thought of him. Renado smiled at Link as he walked over, he wore his long robes as he usually did, "Hello, Link. ow are you this day?" Link gave a smile in return, "Everything's good today..." Renado knew that the look on Link's face meant that he wasn't ok, he said, "Link-" but he interrupted Rendado. "I am fine, Renado, i do not need any of your advice-..." Link stopped when he saw the surpirsed look on Renado's face. Link looked to the ground, "I...i'm...forgive me, Renado, its just i havent been sleeping to well sense..." Link paused. Renado gave a small smile, and put a hand on Link's shoulder, "Sense it all ended?you saved Hyrule, why should you feel so sad? I'm sure that they're might be other missions for you." Link said, "Its not tgat i want a mission, Renado, its just..." he paused again.... he remembered that Renado knew nothing about Midna.... Renado said, "Well?" Then link said looking at the ground, "I just...it feels like that i have not done anything...I know, i did help and save Hyrule...but, it feels like when it ended...nothing better has really happened to Hyrule.." Renado smiled, and took his hand away from link, and said, "I understand, strange emotions flock this time of joy, a time of perril that has passed us." Link looked up at him, hope in his eyes. Renado gave a head nod and said, "I must leave you now, i must go and mind the Santuary." Link nodded, and Renado walked towards the sanctuary. Link sat down on a wooden railing, and put his hands in his face...what could he do? after a few minutes, he stood up and walked to Epona. He mounted on his steed, and rode out of the village, uknowest to him that eyes were secretly watching...

A day later, in the mroning Link came out of his little hut home in Ordon Village. He stretched, he was dressed in his Ordon clothing. He jumped down from the ladder from his little home, and walked into the village of Ordon. The peoples doing what they did best...Beth's mother working in her shop, and her cat wondering around mystrously in the cool green grass.... the Mayer, who's daughter sat ontop their little hut deck. She looked up at Link, and smiled. Link gave a weak smile as well. She walked over to him, and said smiling, "How are you doing this day, Link?" Link hesitated, and smiled and said, "Well, i sopose i'm doing fine, nice day out this morning." Ilia nodded her head in agreement, "Yes," she said, "very nice." Link just kinda looked around the village as it looked as if Ilia was expecting him to say more. Then finally, she said, "Well, have a good day, then Link." she gave him one last smile and walked back to her father. Link sighed softly as he scratched the back of his kneck, and whiping his brow with his arm. He thought he could go out today and ride Epona, but he had to finish early this morning with the ranch...as if always, the goats where acting up again, and being more stubburn than ever. He walked back towards his hut, and walked to Epona who was eating grass by his home, "At least something gets rid of those wickid weeds." he said to himself with a chuckle. He mountaid Epona, and gave her a slight kick, and she gallopped in threw the entrance of the Ordon Village, and up the Ordon Ranch path. Link got to the ranch, and after battling the goats in getting them inside the barn, he chatted with (i kinda forgot his name...?) for a bit, and mountaid Epona again, and left the ranch.
A few minutes later, Link was feeling the wind on his face again, as he and Epona ran threw the green fields of Hyrule once more...this time, Link seemed a bit more alert....something he scenses when he had first left Kakariko Village.... His eyes darted from side to side as Epona ran. He was equipped with his MasterSword, and his Heros bow, and Hylian Shield. The sky was blue, not a single cloud blocked its beauty.... Thats what scared Link, as Epona ran on. Maybe he just had terrible paranoia....yes, probably what it was. But he stayed alert anyhow. As he rode on, he saw someone way off in the distance...he looked harder with his keen eyes, and saw a horse...but with someone else on it...when they got closer, it turned out to be Rusl, the Ordanian that had helped him a couple of times when he and Midna were in the Hyrule castle. Rusl smiled, "Gooday, Link." Link nodded in response. "What are you doing in these parts?" he asked Rusl, as he took a drink of watever from a small bottle. "Just getting back from Lake Hylia," Link blinked, "Why?" Link asked...then he remembered. "I had to talk to old friend there," "-Yes, i remember." said Link. Rusl said, "Well, i had better get back to the villagers. Link said his farewells, and Rusl, rode off on his steed. Link patted Epona's main, and hit her sides softly, Epona ran threw the fields again, and this time going towards Lake Hylia.... "Might be a good place to think...." but he knew what he was going to do there, and it made him smile, memorys of putting on the Zora armor and swimming the lake, and finding hidden things was agreat adventure. Link heard something...wizzing? He looked towards the side of where he was running, and an arrow pierced him in the shoulder. the impact of the arrow made him fall back and slam into the ground. he looked at the wound..the arrow sticking out of his shoulder...blood...he looked up to see if Rusl was around....no one was around.

Link's eyes slowly opened....his eye sight really blurry...."Where am i?" he whispered...he must've been knocked out, because he remembered nothing. He then remember when he felt a rush of pain going threw his shoulder, 'The arrow,' he thought, but it was no longer intact into his shoulder. Bloody it was, but no arrow...? This confused him a little. He sat up slightly, and was surprise to find that his sword remained in its sheath. He painfully stood up, and looked around him when his sight finally came back to him.... He was inside.... HIs eyes widened...how could it be? He gasped as his eyes scanned what was....the Twilight. the Twilight Palace..... Link looked wildly around him, this made no sense! non at all! then he heard a noise, and he quickly unsheathed his sword, and looked around....and saw one of the people from the Twilight Palace...he cant really remember what they called themselves axactly, but he knew their forms. "Do not be alarmed." said the twilight man, ((sorry, i forget if they really have a name, or if they even can speak and link know what their saying)) "You were to be expected...." Link blinked, "What...i...i dont understand," then it dawned on him, he could see Midna again! but...what if he couldn't get back to his world? what if he didn't want to leave....? The man then said, "you are confused? do not worry.....it was meant to be this way..." Link looked at him, and said, "I dont understand....'Meant to be this way'?" he was confused, very confused. Where was Epona? must of had been left behind. the twilight man smiled, pointed teeth glistoning, "You want to see her?" Link knew exactly what he meant and nodded, and said, "But...how do i get back to my world?" "You are not leaving." said the twilight Figure, link knew something was wrong...really wrong. The Twilight Man transformed into Midna, Link blinked, "Mi...Midna....?" he said confused, then she turned into Renado, except his eyes where a glowing red...then he turned their shape, into...Link gripped his sword, "Gannon..." he said, and gritted his teeth at the huge man, who wore a long old dark robe cloke, and who's giant sword glistoned in the twilight realm. His face turned to a sneer, "We meet again, Link. I told you it wasn't the end..." Link thought about all of the evil doings Gannon had done in the past....and then, to the past, with he and Midna....Midna, who used the fused shadows to 'kill'/'distroy' gannon. And how They won, not this evil that now stood before Link. Gannon sneered and said, "I let you go so many times, Link. Hero of time..." he said, glaring at the boy. Link was just gorwing more angry. "Come at me, boy! if you are a true warrior of time!" Link charged at him, and he and Gannon's sword both clashed together, making sparks, and loud sqreech sounds. Link did a back flips as Gannon dived at him to dodge his blow. Gannon smiled, and he turned into Link.... (The real link)Link gasped, "wa-?" he said. Then, the appearence of the room, disspaeared into Hylia lake. (The real link)Link looked wildly around him, and when he turned to look back at Gannon/himself, was gone. "What?!" (real link) said as he looked wildly around him. then there was laughter...his own laughter.... Link turned seeing, a new scene....Lake Hylia, was destroyed. "No!" Link said, running to where the cannon that man had owned. Distroyed...he looked at the lake, it looked mirky, and it was all musty and filth, the waterfall was nothing but burnt mudd slipping down the slopes. Link didnt see gannon....but a few dead old corpses of Zoras.....Link turned away, wanting to barf. He dropped his sword and fell to his knees.
........Tears filled his eyes...."Whats happening?!" he shouted to no one....

Link started his way out of Lake Hylia.... He was so worn out...something was really wrong...he had a feeling of what was happening: Gannon got this awesome ability to change times.... And he liked this time because it is the time of darkness....and he can make it stay this way, even for Link to suffer... Link took out his horse whistle, and blew on it, the sounds echoaing off mountains, and bouncing off trees. No Epona.... He whistles again... seconds later.... No Epona. Link put his whistles away, and looked all around him...surely his steed was still alive...or was she? he thought. He rubbed his eyes as he walked, the dryness of the earth was drying them out. He countinued to walk, now out of Lake Hylia, and into Hyrule field. He stopped wlaking...his eyes fixed on the field...it looked like a bloody battle had once sporned out.... old dead bodys....blood, a old dirty mist filled the field..."This isn't a good thing, Link..." he whispered to himself...what was he to do? he couldn't just find Gannon and force him to turn everything back to normal... Then, he thought about what had happened before this all went ge-haud....He, riding Epona in the fields of Hyrule, pretty day....and seeing the villagers in his village...one last time, Ilia... Then he thought, 'I need to see if anyone survived...but it will take me forever to get there....' He sighed, he was totally beat...Gannon, must've won...Link couldn't do anything else... So, he took that dredful walk threw Hyrule field, towards Faron woods....the walk of death would probably soon befal him..... He past a dead human body....looked like it had been laying there for days....maybe even months. He looked away, and continued his walk.... What will he find in Ordon Village? will it be destroyed? will everyone even the kids be dead? Ilia? He was too afraid to find out what it looked like.... then, sad memorys flooded his mind....'I wish Midna could be here to help...she was so helpful before...' Then it made Link think, what if Midna wasn't even alive? Or maybe this is all sometype of dream....

Link limped his way threw the misty darkness of Faron woods...closer...he was getting closer to what he was afraid to see....death...or survival...it was a chance. Link walked inside a tunnel, and out the end, and saw the Light spirits pond .....it was all dried up, and no light spirit could be sense of the ol pond...he healing water, whitch Link started to crave. "Light Spirit....is..." Link looked away from the dead pond, and started to walk towards the woods part that lead towards the village.... He didn't even bother to look over at the spirit pond he had just now past, the Ordona spirit, whitch was now, probably diminished. Link walked into the entrance of where his home was...his little hut. He stood infront of the house.... what house?he house was burned down, and old ashes flew everywhere. Link sighed, and looked over at the main entrance to Ordon Village... "Give me streingh..." he whispered to no one or anything....no animals had stirred in the trees Faron, as he had past by. Link walked threw the path, and saw the small village that he had grown up in for years. Mockery....Plain, mockery.... He stood there, a dirty boy, with a sword, He looked out over at all of his friends and neighbors..... Beth, Talo, and Malo...playing, Talo chasing Beth with a wooden sword, yelling, "Angard! scavanger!" and Malo just watching with disgust. and the Adults doing their daily work jobs... Tears filled Link's eyes as he saw this...he walked all the way into the village....and all of the villagers, and kids stopped, and looked at him...they just stared.... Link stopped dead in his tracks. This was weird.... Then he saw Ilia, walk towards him, with the smile on her face, "Welcome back Link, now you didn't do anything ruthless while you were gone, did you?" she giggled. Link closed his eyes as tears fell down them.... Then, when he opened them, he saw Colin standing by his father, Rusl, and his mother holding their newborn. Link looked down at Colin.... Colin Grinned. Link blinked, and was about to say something...when he looked to Ilia.... Link jumped back in surprise...the entire village turned a musty grey mist....the houses torn to pieces, and the water murky with demonic fish swimming in it. Link saw the villagers start to laugh.....and the kids.... Link pulled out his sword, Ilia grabbed him by the arm and pulled him to her with unormal good streingh. Ilia looked deep intohis eyes, "Ilia!" Link said, "Whats going on?!" Link closed his eyes, and when he opened them, the entire villagers dissapeared into thin air... Link dropped his sword, and fell to his knees and began to sob. He didn't want to look around at the village again....not again.... I wish...I wish i had help.... he thought. His eyes looked up at the dark musty clouds in the sky. "Please..." he whispered to the sky, "Send me...send me someone!" he shouted.... All hope was lost. Thoughts of Midna spread his mind....tears filled his eyes more....he just...for once...wanted to just lay on the ground, and close his eyes, and enver open them....like, death. He thought of Midna's last word: "Link.... I.....See you later..." Those words were all of Midna he had left of. "I wish...." he whispered, "I wish you were here, Midna....me and you could get threw this together...we could beat that Gannon, and save Hyrule once again..." he paused, and then he cried out, "I dont even know if your alive!" And he stood up out of anger and sadness, and picked up his sword and looked around him, the houses...like before, messed up....but where the villagers in them? probably not. Link was so full of hatred, and anger....tears of hatred filled his eyes as he looked at his home village...his village was his family, the people...Talo, Malo, Beth.... Ilia. Link ran to the mayers home, and ran into the house, crushing it open, "ILIA?!" he yelled at pure desperationg for someone...sombody to be alive! He ran up the staires, Gannon, what if he made certain images of the villagers layign dead in someway, that he new it would make Link weaker.... "Not happening," Link mumbled. He was upstaires... He looked at the bed that was Ilias... And he saw the small, delicate, pale body, of Ilia, laying in the bed... Link had more tears now. He bent down so he was the height of the bed. He put his head on Ilias stomach...."I'm sorry, Ilia....it was wrong of me to go on that ride in the fields...you would've hated to find out what had happened to Epona..." he said threw muffled sobs, "I cant find Epona.....but i know you would've had faith in me, to stay strong, to survive." Link stopped, and just sat there for a few moments...then he finally stood up, and covered Ilias body under a cover, and walked down the staires and out their front door that was now in pieces. He stood outside of their home.... He wiped the tears away. He was very angry, Gannon had to be stopped..... and other things he wished were to be... Midna, he needed her.... "But first," He said outloud to himself, "I must go and see Zelda. If..." he said. He walked out of the entrance of Ordon Village, the fate of gaining hope, and faith...gone....

Link walked threw the dryness field, of Hyrule. He breathed in dry air. I'm going to need some water....soon, i cant just live without it. He thought as he limped threw the field towards Hryule Castle. He could see the castle in the distance, a murky shadow looming over the darkness of the mass. Link looked at his surroundings, "If only you were here Epona..." he mumbled, he wondered if she was even alive. He decided to just run, run to the castle, the princess had to be alive! somebody had to be! He ran, his legs felt almost like jello as he ran threw the field. He gasped in air that was...filthy, it made him caugh, and moree thirsty. He first ran towards the antrance of Castle Town, "Anyone alive here?" he thought outloud to himself. He ran inside...no one, no one in sight. He ran to the castle entrance, and burst threw the door. The yard of the castle was filthy, dust everywhere, just like everywhere else. He burst threw the Castle door, and looked around the run-down place, no one in sight. He ran up flights of staires, and ran threw many doors, he had memorized it from him and Midna's last visit to save her, ((Spoiler here)):and than had to defeat gannon.((End of Spoiler)) Then, he stood right in front of..her door. He took a deep breath.... I'm not going to like what i'm going to see anyhow, this could be one huge trap. He thought outloud. Then, he put his hand on the doorknob, and psuhed the door open slowly. He looked inside... ...."Zelda?" He looked around the room. Where was she? he went inside, and looked around the big room. The chair she normally sat in, empty, and musty and dirty. He sighed, giving up. "She's not here." he said outloud to himself. He sqeezed his fists, his whole life, almost his whole life he was meant to protect her, and now, she was gone, Gannon probably killed her. But if he did he'd leave bread-crums. Link smirked and looked out one of the rooms windows, over the whole Hyrule, Castle Town, nothing but murky. Hryule field was nothing but mass that looked burned, and left the ashes. A tear fell down his face, "His home, his entire home, gone! He turned and kicked down a table, and threw a chair into the window, crashing it. He threw a small table at the wall, splinters flying everywhere.... He ran out of the room, and ran outside of the castle, and out of Castle town, and back out to Hyrule field. He ran and ran....tears of exhoustion coming out of his red tired eyes. Then, he stopped, and fell down in the middle of the field, and just laid down on his back, looking up at the cloudy sky...used to be so blue, and clear....so, free.... He closed his eyes...and ended up falling asleep...
He opened his eyes, he had fallen asleep....he sighed, so, its not a dream. He looked back up at the sky.....he just looked up at it, thinking about how everything was fine before Gannon came to him, before he was shot by that arrow. His wound had mysteriously healed. He looked at the sky.... He thought of the villagers, how they were doing their own village work, the kids playing around... Link blinked, and gasped....a big hole, a black hole appeared into the sky....Link painfully stood up, and looked at it....it looked...familiar..... Then, something....was falling from it...? He looked harder.... it was a little bit aways, but not far from him at all. It looked like...a figure.... And Link new who it was emedietly.... ......"MIDNA!" he yelled as he ran towards the falling body....

Link ran, and jumped up as Midna's body came closer. He grabbed her mangled body that had been fallling from the sky, and fell streight down to the ground and landed on both of his feet. He gently laid Midna on the earth ground. "Midna?!" said Link as he searched her over for any wounds, or any sign of if she was even alive. Midna, was in her real form, the one he had seen when they had last departed. "I thought i'd never see you again!" said link, so happy someone else was even alive, and her of all people. Midna's eyes were closed, and her chest moved up and down as she breathed in small breaths. "Midna?" Link whisperd gently stroking her pale face.... Midna's eyes weakly opened a little, her nice sparkly eyes looking right into his, she formed a weak smile, and said in a muffled voice, "Link...i..." Link had a few tears comign down his face as he looked in her eyes, How could this be? Maybe this was another one of Gannons little tricks. But Link new, by looking into Midna's eyes, that she is the real Midna. "Hello...Midna..." said Link forming a smile. Midna closed her eyes. Link noticed a wound on her side, strange blood dripping from it. He tore part of his clothing, and wrapped it around the wound, he had to find a place to have her rest...and he knew exactly where to go.
Link carried Midna into Kakariko village. Link paid no heed to the emptiness of the small village, and walked into the house that that Zora Prince had once been resting. He walked up the flights of staires. I hope Midna will be ok, I mean, theres no healing water.... nothing. Link was even beginning to thirst very badly to. He lay Midna down on a bed up in the upper room, and put a hand on her pale forehead. He sat down in a chair, and decided to rest his eyes...so he did, and endedup starting to dose off... A few moments later, he heard in his mind, "Link..." and he opened his eyes, and looked at Midna quickly, alarmed that something might be wrong. He went to her bedside, and said, "Midna? do you feel alright? are you thirsty? Hungry?" Midna chuckled softly, and looked back at him, "Its such a pleasure to finally meet you again, Link..." Link smiled, and gently took her hand, "I know....its nice to see you again as well..." Midna blushed a little. Link then wondered something, and asked her, "How did you get here?" Midna's eyes looked away from him for a few moments, and he saw despaire in her eyes. "Midna?" Link whispered, "What happened?" he could tell something was wrong. really wrong. Midna's eyes remained off from Link's, and she said softy, "My Palace....my people..." tears fell down Midna's face. Link sqeezed her hand slightly, and said, "What has happened to your Palace?" Midna's red watery eyes looked to Link's tired eyes. She said softly, "Link, my people...their...." she hesitated, and Link knew exactly what she was going to say.... "Their all dead..." Midna said, trying to hold back a muffled sob. Link hadn't had time to notice, but her cloths were torn at some places. He gently whipeed away a few tears that fell down Midna's face, "Midna....its...Gannon, he has done it." Midna said, "How? How did he get so much power? he slaughtered them so..." Midna realizing what she had said, made more tears come down her face. "Yes, i know," said Link, "He has acquired a power, that i will never know how he possessed it." "Zelda?" asked Midna, "She..She might know what to do!" Link turned his head, and looked at the floor. Midna, new by the look on his face... "Oh Link..." she said softly sitting up in the bed, and gently puting her hand on his shoulder, "I'm...i'm sorry-" But Link interrupted in anger, "-And my villagers!! and friends!! my home!" Link stood up, and walked over to the other side of the room. He remembered Ilia's body, how dead it was, but peaceful in a way. Midna stood up from the bed, and walked over to him, "Link," she said softly, "We must find a way to stop Gannon." she said, "Like the old days, remember?" Midna smiled. Link gave a smile but he wasn't looking at her, "Such a good team..." he whispered. "Yes," Midna said, "But Link....i..am confused, it seemed as if Time had passed..." "It has." said Link, "He can control of whatever time he wants it to be. It seems, he chose the 'Dark Ages' Another words..." Link didn't want to say it, and Midna new. "Link...is anyone...anybody, 'Anything' alive that could help us. Link thought...and thought. A few came to mind, "I'm not sure if anyone of them are even still alive, but, maybe the ones up in SnowPeak, and maybe i can see if the Zora Prince could help...that is, if hes..." he remembered seeing the dead Zora's in Lake Hylia. "We'll have to see." said Midna, giving that look Midna always gave when she new that they had a chance at anything. Link looked at her and smiled, "Looks like we're a team once more." "We've always been a team, and always WILL be a team." She walked to him, and gently stroked some brown hair out of his face, "We can win this..." Right then, Link just wanted to...hug her, kiss her maybe....but, something just told him 'not yet.' "Come on," said Midna walking to the door of the room, "We must go, first to SnowPeak!" Link said, "But what about your wound?" Midna looked at herself, "What wound?" she asked looking questioningly at Link. Link saw the bloody bandage, she unrapped it...Nothing. Just like him with the arrow, when he got shot, no wound came with him... "Odd." said link silently. He walked to the door, "lets go." he said walking out of the building. They walked out of Kakariko Village.

Link and Midna both walked out of Kakariko village, and were now in the middle of Hyrule Field. "Midna," said Link. Midna looked at him as he asked her, "Can you warp us? it might be faster." Midna smiled, and said, "Yes," Link pondered for a moment, then said, "Dont i have to be in wolf form?" Midna said, "Yes," Link looked away. "I can make you turn into the wolf again, but not for long, sor some reaosn, whenever i use my type of magic, i feel weak. So, i turn you into wolf, and warp. And then you turn human." Link nodded. Midna held up the small shard that would turn him. He turned into wolf, and he warped to SnowPeak.
Link's four paws touched the cold snowy ground of SnowPeak-Wait! Link's dog scenses tinged at the smell of...smell! there was smell! He looked around him, no snow. Midna was standing right by him, "Oh no." she said looking around them. Link turned back to Human form. "Its warm." he said getting a shiver from the unexpected scense of warm, very warmness. Link sighed, "Looks like they got it hard to." Midna looked at him with sorry eyes, "Dont worry Link, i'm sure others will be..." she hesitated, Link looked at her, and shook his head, "I doubt it," "But someone has to be!" said Midna, "Not everyone can be...dead." 'She's right,' he thought. In his Ordon village, he had only saw Ilia's body, none of the other villagers, and Zelda, he didn't find her body....maybe their not all dead, maybe he's just trying to trick them.... "Your right," he said, "I'm sure that Gannon wouldnt've killed everyone, i mean..." "I know what you mean," Said Midna looking out over the hills of SnowPeak...the dryness of the mountains kicking in Link's throte. Midna sighed, "Well....we gotta think of something to do." she said sitting down on a dry log you could tell had been coverd in thick snow for a long time. Lin sat down next to her, and put a hand to his forehead, and sighed deeply. "Midna..." he whispered. Midna looked at him, "What if.... what if none of this is really happening...that...that its all just a HUGE illusion?" Midna looked at him for a few moments, then looked back out at the mountains, and she said, "I dont know...if its an Illusion, then why does earth feel so-" "Real?" said Link looking over at her again. Midna nodded, "I mean, if he has grown stronger in power....then, something must be wrong about this, i mean..." Midna sighed giving up her own idea, still looking out to the distance, Link could tell.... She misses her home, Twilight Palace, she missed running her people, and her kingdom. But Link new that she would rather stay here with him, then go back to the Palace and see all of the destruction Gannon had done to it, and her people. "Link...." Midna whispered. Link looked at her, "What if... What if it isn't an Illusion? and Gannon has been more powerful then we thought.... that he had this power way before when i first met you, and we walked right into a trap...right into the trap." Link new what she meant. Tears came down her face. Link had never had a day, when he's cried as much, except for this day, and Midna was probably thinking the same. Link took her hand, and held it tightly, "Dont worry Midna, if anything happens..." Midna looked at him now, with sad hopful eyes, "...I...I will be here with you..." Midna's eyes looked into his, who gazed back into hers. Link always thought she had the prettiest eyes....He kept holding her hand. "Everything...eveything will turn out, ok." he said. Midna looked away, and Link new he should of had just shut his mouth. He looked out over the mountains.... "Where should we go next?" he asked gazing out over the misty filthy mountains. Midna a few moments later said, "we shouldn't bother going to the Zorians. I think, maybe we should go to Castle Town?" Link shook his head, "Been there, empty. same as everywhere else." Then Midna said, "Something tells me...maybe we should go to Lake Hylia, i have a strange feeling about that place....it makes me shiver when i tink about it for some reason...But, i think we can get help there." Link looked at her, and smiled, "Wherever Midna might think of a place to go, then we should go there." Midna smiled and blushed a little looking away. "Well," she said standing up,"Lets go." Link stood up, and turned into wolf, and he and Midna warped to Lake Hylia.[/color]

Link and Midna both were warped to Lake Hylia. Wolf Link, sooned turned back right into his own human form. Link looked around him, just as it looked when he first came to this....'Illusion' or whatever. The whole thing was confusing. Midna sighed, looking around them. "I wonder..." she said looking at the murky waters. Link looked around, and he looked up, and saw a figure up on the mountain side...with, A bow and arrow?! aimed right at Midna! Link ran to Midna, and grabbed her, pulling away from the lakeside, and the arrow wizzed passed. Link looked back up att he figure, it looked, mad. And it looked human shaped, so..."Maybe its another survivor!" said Link. Midna wiped dust from her shoulders, "Yes, well i hope they have a good reason for shooting at me." she said. Link looked back up at the mountainside, and the figure, was gone. "Whered they...?" he sighed in frustration. Then, Link heard..gallopping? He looked back to the mountainside, and out from around a corner, came...Links eyes lit up, "Epona!" He ran to his steed, who's main was patched, and other spots on her body had patches of hair missing. He rubbed her main, almost making him want to cry, "Its ok, Epona..." Link whispered in her ear. Epona neighed, she seemed to have been threw alot. And something seemed wrong. Then, Midna said, "Link! look!" Link turned to Midna, and there, that had a knife up to her kneck, was... "Rusl?" said Link. The man, looked ravid, like a wild man, that has been in a pack for a long time. He looked confusing like at Link. Link slowly walked towards him, "Rusl?" he said again. Rusl twitched, and said in a gruddy voice, "You....Your dead! you demon of Gannon! you evil doer!" Link stopped in his tracks, and said, "Rusl, its ok...." but Link new what RUsl met....Gannon had been in the appearence of Link right before he had departed. "What do you mean?" said Midna, but Rusl pushed the blade harder at her kneck, "Shut up, creature!" Link said, "Rusl...what-" "Shut your mouth, Gannon!" -"But I'm not-" said Link. But Link stopped when he saw a little drinkle of blood fall down Midna's kneck from the blade. "You, killed everyone! and who is this soposed to be? some new Demon you created? No more! ahah! soon, i will of had destroyed your-" Then Rusl paused. and then he said, "Give me my horse." Link looke at Epona who neighed softly, "This isn't your horse," said Link, "Its Ep-" "-Epona, my horse! once belonged to the Hero Of Time! duh! you of all people and creatures of this earth Gannon, you should know!" Link was confused.... "Am..." he whispered, "I'm realy dead?" he asked himself in a whisper. "He's....the real....Link...." gasped Midna. Rusl looked at her as if she was crazy, "Nice try, creature!" But he could focus fast enough, to see Link punch him right in the face, making him fall back, releaing Midna. Link grabbed Midna and pulled her back. Link stood over Rusl's body, Rusl looked up at him. but Link had a sword to his kneck, "Rusl," said Link quietly, "Remember....remember the day when i rode passed you, on Epona? remember that day?" Rusl had a glare of hatred, "Thats the last tiem i saw you," Link said. "Then you died." said Rusl, tears coming out of his eyes. What? Link thought. "I came back, to Hyrule Field, saw a lone bloody arrow on the ground, i saw blood all over the place. Epona was left alone. And then...." Rusl pased. Link grabbed him by the shoulders, "What happened next? you must tell me Rusl!" Link almost just wanted to brake down right there...was he really...dead? "Darkness...emedietly fell over Hyrule....i went back to my village, i felt like i had to protect it," he puased, then went on, "When i got there....Fire. everywhere. All of the houses were burned down, i saw no sign of anyones body, except for one, whitch was-" "-Ilias?" inturrupted Link. Rusl blinked, "Yes, you must've been there to." Link nodded, "Go on." said Link, "Tell me more." Rusl continued, "They, were all dead, i knew that much. I went to go see the princess. Not there. I went to go and see my old friend that was usually up on that tower." He pointed up at the tower that Link had once climbed up to see a friend of Rusl before. "But he wasn't there. Everybody was gone. except..." Rusl stopped, and closed his eyes. "Who?!" asked Link, he felt like wanting to go mad, "Who?!" But Rusl, remained silent, "Nice try, Gannon." Link grabbed RUsl by the collar, and lifted him to his feet, and slamed him into the mountain wall, "Rusl! i am not gannon!" said Link, practically sobbing. Rusl just smiled, "I can give you proof, you are dead, Link." Link let go of him, "Show me then. where do i go? tell me, and i'll meet you there." Rusl told him where, "In the Mirrow Chamber, go there." Then, Rusl mountaid Epona, and rode off. Link looked at Midna, "I hope he's right. i'm so confused..." Midna took his hand, "Dont worry, Link." she said giving him a smile. He was transormed into wolf. and they Warped to the Mirror Chamber, if Gerudo Desert. When they finally got there, Link turned back into Human, Midna stood next to him. He looked at Rusl who just rode in on Epona, who Link inveyed and wanted back soon. "Right over there," said Rusl, pointing at the alter where you walk onto the center spot, where you used to enter the mirror of twilight. Link slowly walked up it. Then he wished he hadn't... there He was...Link....dead, really dead. Link turned his head and fell to his knees, and put his hands on his face, sobbing, and trying to fight the urge to puke. Midna walked over to him, and saw his mangled body on the alter. Is it Gannon? or is it...really me? Link thought threw muffled sobs, and gags. Midna lookd up at Rusl, who just sat there, looking at them both as if watiing for a trap. Midna sneered....something was wrong.

They all made camp in the Gerudo Desert, now away from the horrible scene of Link's 'dead' body in the Mirror Chamber. Link sat down on a sandy hill not far from where they were camping. Midna walked out of a tent Rusl had put up, of course they all had their own seperate tents. Midna looked up at Link, who sat ontop of the hill, and gazed out over the sunset. Midna Sighed, and walked up the hill to him, she stood behind him. "Link..." she said putting a hand on his shoulder, "Everything will be ok." she said giving him a hug. Link just stared off into the distance as if not knowing she was there. Rusl watched this sectretly, sitting down by his tent, and sharpening a stick with a knife. Midna sat down by Link, and looked out over the sunset, "You know something, Link." she said still gazing out at the sunset. Link shrugged, "What?" Midna said, "I might not even be able to get back to my world when this is over," this caught Link's attention, he looked at her, and she looked at him. "Even if i do get back somehow, nothings going to be there, nothing....my kingdom was destroyed, and all of my people." Link looked down a little, he knew that she was probably going to start to get upset. But he looked back up at her, and she just smiled, "I'm not afraid of not being able to go back at all Link." Link made a look of surprise, she said, "Because, when i'm here, i feel safer around you." Link tried to hide a smile, as he looked back out at the sunset once more. "And...." Midna hesitated... Link looked back up at her. Midna looked into his eyes, and said, "I think...we'd be able to survive...if we were together. We always made a good team..." Midna's eyes looked down to the sandy ground. Link put a hand to her chin, and gently made her look back up at him. He made a smile, and said softly, "I know...." He whiped a tear that fell down her cheak, and gently took her hand, "I think if anyones capabel of getting threw this, its us." Midna smiled. Link thought he heard a snear down at the tents, but he just thought it was the wind and ignored it. The sun continued to set behind them, them both looking into eachothers eyes, as if just finding what they were looking for....eachother. "Midna..." Link whispered, "I....um...." Midna waited for him to say whatever he wanted to say...but he was hesitating. "I...er..." Midna put a finger to his lips, and slowly leaned in, and- "Hey LINK!" yelled Rusl from the tents. Link and Midna both looked down at Rusl, he pointed to rushing creatures... "Gannons! looks like we're going to have a battle!" he yelled happily, pulling out his sword, and running towards the creatures, yelling, "AAHHHH haaa!!!! die!" Rusl yelled. Link and Midna both had their weapons ready. Link looked at Midna, she looked at him, "Be careful," she said, Link nodded and ran towards the battle, that Rusl already began to fight. There were only a few creatures, not many, just about 20-25, maybe even thirty, he wasn't sure if they would even be able to win! he wished he could of had kissed... "Never mind that now," he said to himse,f quietly, "You want that kiss, then you need to slaughter these creatures. Link couldn't keep the scenes of when he had saw his dead body in the Mirror Chamber, nothing made snese to him anymore. He swung his sword, cutting off an orc's head as he tried to shoot an arrow at him. Blood splattered on Link's face. He turned, seeing Rusl, and saw a creature coming up behind him, and stabbed him threw the back, the creature sqeeled and fell down, blood everywhere. Rusl seemed very good with his sword, very well trained. Link saw Midna with two thin sword, and blocking a blow from another creature. link turned to his front, and blocked a deadly blow. Rusl yelled, "Dont worry! we will beat them! they are weak! usless! helpless!" Rusl cried out insain like. that scared Link a little, Rusl seemed really crazy. Link was being ambushed into a small circle, bad guys all around him. Midna was to. and so was Rusl. Link stabbed a bad guy threw the chest, and turned and blocked a blow. Link looked at Midna, and saw a sword go into her side, "Midna!" Link cried. Midna looked at him with heavy eyes, and fell to the ground. Link punched a creature in the face sending him flying backwards, and he ran towards her, then, "Aaah!" Link grabbed his side, a sword sticking out of it. his eyes got heavy...blood...everywhere...."Midna..." Link gronad, trying to crawl towards her own magnled body that had blood all around it. Link got stabbed again in the legs totally perilyzing him. And Link's eyes slowly closed.....

Link's eyes slowly opened...where was he? He lay on sand...hot sand. He looked around him. Dead orc bodies lay everywhere.... Link sqinted, "Ahh..." he said slightly, looking at his bloody hands. His wounds were deep. "I lost a lot of blood..." he thought. He tried standing up when he realized, he was chained down....he looked around him, "Midna?" He said, looking around, no Midna.. "Rusl?" No Rusl... "They cant be dead." Link said to himself. He tried getting up, but the chains were around him so tight that they rubbed hard against his wounds even if he tried sitting up. He lay under the boiling hot sun....did they leave him here to slowly die? maybe....he sqinted, the sun was really bright. He tried feeling around him for a weapon to try to get the chains off. He had none... His master sword..bow and arrows...daggars.... all gone. Link just lay there now...his eyes looking up at the sky, bright....hot...sky. He closed his eyes....
A few minutes later he opened them...it was nighttime. He hoped Midna was ok, and Rusl. He tried once again to sit up. He sqinted from the pain as he sat up more and more. And finally, and was sitting. "MIDNA!" Link yelled, "RUSL!" No sign, or movement. Link sighed. Gannon....he was making things more confusing, what if he took Rusl and Midna as bait...but like he thought of before, Wouldn't Gannon leave bread crumbs to lead to them? Link stood up, the heavy chains making it hard to walk. The chaines were wrapped around his arms and hands, connecting to one othe rchain that wrapped around his waste, so that whenever he moved a sertain way, it would hurt badly. And it was working, Link new that for sure. Link started to limp across the Gerudo desert's sanding floors, now that the sun was gone, it was much cooler. "Midna....Rusl..." Link moaned a few minutes after calling their names over and over again. Link was starting to breakdown....Gannon was breaking him slowly...Mentally, and Emotionally. And the fact of thinking of Midna being dead....didn't help him in any way...he seemed...almost, like he was going to loose his sanity.... He looked all around him, he yelled out one last time very loudly, "MIDNA!!!" his voice echoed off of sandy hills, and old brokedown bricks. Link fell to his knees....so exhaustid....no food...water...or rest for days! his bones hurt...his wounds stung badly. He closed his eyes and just stayed on his knees, he thought of Midna...Midna was the only person that made him feel...happy, safe, like none of this bad stuff was happening.... Link opened his eyes again...he had to stay sane...had to keep it together.... "No ones alive!" Link shouted to the sky, "No one! Nothing! No...way...of surviving!" Link gasped as he tried to catch his breath....his heart pounding, he was loosing it. He stood up, and looked up at the sky, "Please..." he whispered.... "I...i just want things normal..." after a few moments of as waiting for a reply, he yelled, "I know your watching, GANNON!" Link had tears coming out of his eyes... he said in a lower voice, "Yeah...i bet your laughing...how triumphet you are, you think your beating me! ha! your probably thinking, 'Wow, what an amazing plan of mine...' your wrong! and your thinking i'm going mad!" He started walking again, but much faster this time... he laughed, and said, "Come on! come fight me! i'm ready!" What was he thinking? he needed to find Midna, and Rusl, he realized, he must be going more mad than he thought. Link continued to walk much faster, dispite the chains around his arms, and wounds. Link got to the top of a hill, where he fell to his knees...cool wind whipping his brown hair...he remembered of how it felt when he and Epona would ride on threw the fields... that was another time, when he knew something bad was going to happen...and he did nothing to try to prevent it from happening. He thought of the whole thing... no one being around... Dead zoras... seeing his own dead body.... Midna falling into the world of light.... Zelda...no zelda... Link had more tears coming down his face now.... "I need...more help..." which was true. Link was more weak than he had ever felt before in his life...he remembered other times when he thought he felt weak...he smirked, not like now. He could barely lift himself off the ground. Link couldn't do this alone. The heavy chains around his arms, tore into his flesh from them weaghing him down. Link sighed...he thought of Midna.... Then...he thought, "Not a bad time just to rest..." and he fell back onto the sandy floors of Gerudo desert, where he fell asleep.
His eyes slowly opened.... 'No..' he thought closing his eyes again... 'I dont want to wake up yet...let me sleep...' And then, his eyes shot open, and Rusl stood over him, "Hey." he said. Link shrieked and jumped out of the bed...-Bed?! He looked around him, where was he? then he realized he was in one of the torn buildings of Kakariko village. "Lay back down, and calm down now boy." Rusl said making Link lay back down on the bed. Link lay there, and he said, "Whats happened? are you injured? if Midna ok?! Whats going on-?" "Settle down, Link." said Rusl a little harshly, "Midna's...sleeping, in the other room. She is very much injured, yes, and so are you. now get some sleep." Link couldn't argue...because sleep over took him.

Link woke up the next day...... He blinked, and could finally see more clearly. He didn't see anyone in the room....Might as well get up... thats when he remembered Midna, he quickly got up, and ran to the other room. He stopped in the doorway, he saw Midna's slim Twilight figure sprawled out on the bed. Covers over her body. He walked over to her bedside, "I should've been by your side..." he whispered, bending down so he could be as high as her bed. He put a hand on hers....cold. He gently rubbed it, "I'm...sorry..." he whispered. Why hadn't he been there for her? She wouldn't be hurt! Then he realized the pain in his legs...when he had gotten stabbed right before he had passed out in the Gerudo desert sand. He sighed softly, "I probably would have still failed to help....i cant do anything..." He could hear her heavy breathing, but it was soft...peaceful.... A tear come down Link's face...."We...We can do this together, Midna...i...i need you," he puased, and said, "I need you....." then he said the words he hated.... "I need you to help me....i ant survive like this..." Rusl stood at the doorway, listoning to every word he said...Rusl's face in a sneer. Link didn't know Rusl was watching him.... Link rested his head on her stomach, listoning to her heavy breathing. He closed his eyes.... "Please...." he whispered... "I cant live with out you..." Then, Link heard Rusl say loudly, "You should'nt be having emotions at a time like this, Link...." Link's eyes opened and he looked up at Rusl. Link stood up quickly, but painfully, sense his legs were still sore. Rus said, "This is a time of war Link, did you not just see it?! you cannot servive if this...this Thing is on your shoulders." He pointed at Midna. Link glared, "She is not....a Thing!" Rusl laughed.... "Look at her?!" Link looked at Midna's limp body.....then back up at Rusl. "Whats your point?" Link asked angerly. Rusl rolled his eyes, "You do not have time for this!" he motioned at Midna, "You cant live like this, no one can, you have to find Gannon, and destroy him for good!" Link continued to glare...Rusl...was acting strange...very strange...Link knew he knew something that Link didn't. Rusl said, "Your the only one who can kill him! and she is not helping you!" Link saw Midna turn a little in her sleep, as if she was having a bad dream. Rusl smirked, "Even if you did beat this...this whole thing with Gannon, you still wouldn't be able to survive with her. She's a creature! creature of darkness!" Link Ran to Rusl, and punched him in the face. Rusl fell back. Link grabbed him by the shirt, and pushe dhim up against the wall. "Why does everybody think i can do this?!" He screamed. His face close to Rusl's face, who winced in a bunch of pain. "I cant carry this world on my shoulder!! Cant you see that?! If this is the future! i failed to save it from Gannon's power! I saw my dead body!!! none of it makes sense to me! But i'm going to at least to try...to try have some hope!" Link had tears fill his eyes, tears of anger, as he yelled this. Rusl blinked...and smiled, "Link....you have to carry this world on your shoulders...your the only one capable..." Link hit him hard against the wall again, Rusl winced, Link yelled again, "NO! Midna...Midna....she helps me! She's the one who's been able to keep me in this....in this whole confusing thing!" Rusl's face contorted as if he was disgusted, then Link said more quietly, but sternly, "You know something...." Rusl's face turned to a frown... Link continued, "What do you know Rusl? You know something i dont know, and i want to know...What?" Rusl eyes turned looking behind Link, towards Midna. Link looked back and saw Midna standing there, just standing there...a worried look on her face....Link looked back at Rusl, "Look at me," Rusl's eyes slowly looked back at Link's, Link said, "What do you know?" Rusl laughed, "Link....Link Link..." Link blinked. Rusl was clearly hiding something...and he was very crazy... Link threw him into a shelf. The shelf shattered into pieces as Rusl crashed into it. Rusl was on the floor, splinters and glass everywhere. Link walked to him, and forced him up by grabbing him by the shirt, and throwing him into a wall. "Link!" cried Midna. Link looked at her...Midna's face was shocked, "Midna.." Link said, "He knows! He knows something! He thinks we're weak! we're not!" Link ran back to Rusl who was painfully still trying to sit up. Link grabbed him again. Rusl moaned, cuts on his face and arms. Link dragged him outside of the room, and down a staircase, and all the way down the stairs. Midna followed them at a fast pase. Link threw Rusl outside in the desert dirt. Link pulled out his sword, and angled it at Rusl's kneck. Rusl just lay on the ground looking up at her. Midna ran out to them, and went to Link, puting her arms around his arm, "Link, No...dont do this." Link looked at Midna, "He knows..." Midna still noticed those tears in his eyes...."Link...." she whispered... "Please...." Link glared at Rusl, "You will...tell me." he pressed his sword harder on Rusl's kneck, some blood dripping from it. Rusl winced, and groaned... "Link, Link...i can...tell you...i have what you need..." Link's face slowly turned back to a face of hope...Was this good news? he hoped... "Tell me..." said Link.

Rusl had led Link and Midna threw Hyrule field once more, going towards Lake Hylia once more. Link hated to go there, but, Rusl had something that Link needed....and what was it needed for? Midna walked beside Link, as Rusl walked ahead. "What do you sopose it is he has?" asked Midna to Link. Link shrugged, "Maybe this is all a huge trap....Rusl, is different. Very different, i wouldn't trust him even after this." Midna nodded. A few minutes later, they walked inside the entrance of Lake Hylia once more, Rusl stopped by the water, and turned to Link. Link said, "Well?" Rusl yawned, and scratched his kneck. Midna rolled her eyes, "We dont have time for this!" She said. Rusl smiled, and said, "Here....lives a new species, of Hylian..." Link blinked, "What?" he asked with a quetioning look. Rusl grinned, "First off, if you want to find Gannon, and kill him, you need to declare war, i know all the statistics, Where Gannon's army lies, quietly, waiting to be awakened once more." Link gripped his sword, "And," continued Rusl, "I have your army, Link." Midna and Link both looked at eachother, then back at Rusl. Rusl turned his back to them, and yelled something in a strange toung. Link looked all around them, Human sized creatures rose from the mountain walls, some coming up from out of ground, kinda like those bone creatures, that were like wolves. Link never could remember the names. But Link knew, these were human creatures....all men. They all wore ratty clothing, and they were so filthy, as if they hadn't washed in years. Rusl looked to Link with a look, as if waiting for an award. "How..." said Link.. "How did you find these....?" Rusl shrugged, and said, "When Gannon's rebels-And Gannon himself-Destroyed Hyrule, these creatures came to my aid when i tried to stop them. They do not speak, they just take orders from me, or to no one." Midna grabbed Link's arm tightly, she was a bit freightened, Link new that, the creatures looked fierce....but yet...peace in their eyes. Rusl said, "In order to get Gannon's attention, you need to get your army out on the fields of Hyrule, and the next thing you know, he'll be waiting..." Link looked at Rusl. "How do you know so much?" Link asked harshly. Rusl made a face, "You dont know what i've been threw, Child." Link smirked, "I dont really care about what you've been threw." Said Link. Midna looked at him, "What?" she said letting go of his arm. Rusl's eyes fell to the ground. Link new he said something bad, of course he cared.... "I dont have time to find out your emotions about of whats happened, i've had that happen to me plenty of times, and i dont need to hear yours." Link walked over to Rusl, and said, "You know too much." The creatures around them sturred as their master was being confronted by a living being. Link noticed that their was at least thousands to billions in Lake Hylia now, perfect size for an army. Link continued to stare harshly at Rusl, "But for now," Link said, "Lets do this whole 'Army' thing. Gannon's time on this earth is up." Rusl sneered as Link walked back to Midna, who's arms were crossed, she was looking to the ground, Link sighed, and said, "Midna... I..-" "-I should get ready for war." Midna said turning and walked away from the both of them. When Link watched her leave, he slowly turned his head back to Rusl.... Rusl was giving Link a look.... a tricky look.... a sly look.... Link glared....Rusl was definently....not Rusl.
Midna sat ontop of a hill that is in Lake Hylia, and she gazed out into the misty, dead waters of Lake Hylia....she sighed. Link was breaking down...she knew that much. Rusl, was crazy. And she felt like she was about to diminish....somehow....she just didn't get this whole thing...it took too much thinking.... Link saw his own dead body, so, why isn't he dead? Midna.... I...Midna....Twilight Princess.....no longer....Gannon destroyed my kingdom, my people... and she wanted to pay, She wanted to hurt Gannon, maybe even kill him, if she could, for killing her poeple, and destroying her palace. She sighed once more.... But what of Link? I fear for him....What if....what if I make it...and he doesn't? I cant go back home, no one else if living here...Then she realized, Link has saved my life so many times....even when he was extremely injured... I lived.....so...maybe...he can win this...and maybe....maybe i dont have to be alone...we wouldn't have to be alone.... She looked at the sky...then suddenly...in her head....She screamed and closed her eyes, her hands on her head, pain shooting threw her brain....
The memory came back to her like lightning... "No!" Midna yelled, she was inside her palace, Everyone was being slaughtered by an evil darkness... Gannon. Midna picked up her sword and ran down her staircase, and saw one of her people get stabbed by a spear. She ran to aid him, but she was grabbed by- she gasped, "Gannon!" Gannon grinned, "Nice to meet you again, Midna....Twilight Princess...." Midna gasped more as his arm sqeezed around her kneck, "We finally get to actually talk...." Midna tried swiping her sword at him, but Gannon just snapped his fingers and the sword fell into ashes. "Now, dont get ansy..." And he tossed her into a group of his evil creatures, and they smiled with fangy teeth. They grabbed her, Midna tried to get away, but they were too strong....they wrapped chains around her arms. "Come." said Gannon. The creatures forced Midna to follow as they walked back inside the palace walls. They tossed her on the stony floor, and left the room. Only Midna and Gannon.... Gannon stood, the darkness devouring him like bugs. He grinned, Midna said, "I... I thought... Link-" "Ha! you think a little thing like that would keep me away forever...actually...he's made me much stronger." Midna glared, "No! he didn't!" Gannon chuckled, "if only..." he said, "If only you could've stayed with him." Midna's eyes looked to the ground. "Dont be shy..." said Gannon, "Its too late for him, i've already got him under my feet." Midna looked back up at him, "What...What do you mean?" Gannon waved his arms, and a hologram came up in thin air...Midna gasped, "Link..." she whispered. In the images, Link was inside Ordon Village, by Ilia's bedside, Ilia's dead body mangled on the bed.... Gannon said as she watched, "He's all alone....no one to aid him...or to help him." Midna has a tear come down her cheak. It went forword faster, and Link was in Lake Hylia... dead Zoras.....Gannon said, "I will soon, very soon break him...he is dying..." Midna looked up at Gannon, Gannon nodded and said, "He is weak, he wont be able to survive...but there will be a day, when i kill him with my own sword." The hologram went off. Midna looked up at Gannon. Gannon said, "But first, i want to do something i for-longed to do to you before hand..." Midna backed up a little- Midna woke up screaming, Link was over her, and Rusl was nearby. Link tried to calm her down, "Midn! Midna! its ok!" Midna stopped writhing...and looked up at him...tears fell from her eyes like a stream... "Link.." she sobbed... Link pulled her into a hug. "Whats going on?" Link asked softly in Midna's ear as she began to sob... "Its...its Gannon..." she said in muffled sobs... "I had forgotton..." Link looked her in the face and wiped her tears away, and said, "What is it? about Gannon?" Midna looked away from him, trying to hold back the sobs... "Gannon...." Midna hesitated... "He's going to win." Link's eyes got big... "What?!"

Link and Midna both sat down by eachother a few minutes later. Rusl divising a plan for Link's soldiers to follow, and Link, trying to figure this....this out, Midna, obviously had been with Gannon not long after he destroyed her kingdom. Link had questions, and Midna, was worried, she new she had to tell him. Link said, "Midna, you think you can tell me now?" he asked softly. Midna nodded, not looking at him, but the sunset, "Link," she said, "Gannon told me, that he was going to brake you, brake you by isolating you, you know how no ones around? how everythings 'dead'?" Link nodded...he understood this, and Gannon's plan was slowly working, Link could feel it. But, he had to have hope, he and Midna...possibly Rusl. "Dont worry, like i've been saying, Midna. We can make it out of this." Midna shook her head. Link smile turned to a frown. "No, Link...." she said sadly, "Now....now i feel like....we are going to loose..." Link looked away.... she couldn't be saying this... she needed to help him! "Link," Said Midna. Link looked back at her, Midna said, "I'm not trying to discourage you.... i really do think, you are strong...you can win this." She forced a smile.... "But...I just dont want anything recklis to happen to you...i fear you might...might..." Link took her hand, "Midna..." he said calmly, "If i die, trying to save this world, then it would be better, than dying not saving the world from Gannon's evil power..." Midna looked away, he was right... "I can...at least try....we can." Midna looked at him and smiled, he was smiling as well. Midna sighed, and said, "Yes....we can die as a Team...." Link nodded. Rusl walked over, "Link," Link looked at him, "We must get your army to the fields....you see the skys?" Link looked up at them, yes...they were growing much much darker...not with lack of sun...with lack of Good.... "That means Gannon's ready...i've learned and seen it too many times." Midna stood up, and said, "Then, to war we will go." Link looked at her about to say something... he didn't want her to go and risk her life...but, she was willing to risk her life to try to help kill Gannon. So, he said nothing more. Rusl said, "Link, once we get to our destination, our army will already be there, waiting for us. They are talented that way." Almost too talented.... thought Link. Rusl walked ahead, Epona was tied to a wood board, eating dead grass. Rusl held her regns out to Link, "Your steed." he said with a smile. Link took the regns and mounted onto Epona. Rusl whistles loudly and two other horses came running to them. A black horse, and a White horse. Rusl mounted the black horse, and Midna mounted the White one. "Lets go." said Link as he hit Epona's sides with his ankles. Epona neighed and gallopped out of Lake Hylia, Midna and Rusl by Link's side. Please... he thought, Let this war...be worth fighting for....let this be Gannon's final draw!
They stopped in the middle of Hyrule field. Link looked at Rusl and Midna's weapons... Rusl's: A sword, and a spear. Midna's: Two thin swords, and a Twili bow. And...Link's: His MasterSword. His Hylian Shield (Which was hiley worn) and his heros bow. And he wore a Green Tunic. "Hey," Midna said. As Link looked at her, she said, "Be careful," and She leaned over and kissed Link on the cheek. Link blushed slightly....trying his best to hide it, which did no good. Midna smiled, Rusl smirked silently, his eyes focused in the distance. he said, "I will go and get the soldiers lined. I can already see Gannon's troops marching in from the distance." Link squinted, was true. Lines and Lines of men and creatures walked threw the fields of Hyrule... Link looked back to say something to Rusl, but he was already gone. he looked at Midna, "Be careful," Midna smiled, "Link Link, I think i'll be fine." Then...Link wondered...something as bothering him. He looke back at Midna, "What did Gannon do to you?" Midna didn't look at him.....just looked streight ahead, "Remember my wound?" Link nodded, yes, the one that she had on her side when she fell from the sky... "Yes." Midna said, "He gave me that...." Link gritted his teeth...he could tell by her face.... Gannon had tortured Midna. This made Link angry, Midna could tell, but she kept her eyes from his. "When i kill him...I'm going to cut his head off!" Link said angrily, gazing out into the distance with fierce eyes, at the incoming army. "Be ready..." Link said, pulling out his MasterSword. Midna pulled out both of her long swords, ready.... she just hoped Rusl would be back soon with the rest of them. "Link ,we wont last long if Rusl doesn't get here on time." said Midna. "I know, but its a risk i'm willing to take." said Link ,anger in his voice. "Link, do not fight out of anger! Gannon always lost to fighting with anger! if he does, then you sertainly will to." said Midna, looking at him with a look of, 'Your nuts if you do that' look. Link looked at her, and he calmed down, his nerves. "Your right....we dont need evil to overcome us. Gannon needs to die the right way." he said looking back at the fields...his mind began to be more calmer...he thought of how Midna kissed him! he couldn't believe it..... "Hey," Midna said, "Um...Link....I...uh..." Link looked at her, "I..." Then Link noticed that Gannon's army were 50 feet away. He saw an arrow flying towards Midna, Link yelle,d "Look out!" And he jumped off Epona and grabbed the arrow in thin air. He hit the ground hard, Epona neighed. He looked at the arrow he was holding in surprise, "Link, you ok!?" Midna asked, "Yeah!" he said, "Wheres Rusl?" Link got back on Epona, and said, "Lets just go!" He raise dhis MasterSword, and yelled as Epona ran at full speed towards the evil creatures.... Rusl... Link thought.... Where are you?!?! He swiped his sword at the first line of creatures. Blood and guts flew everywhere as they were slashed and trampled over. Midna right beside him slashed her sword at them as well....heads went rolling, and other various body parts. Blood splashed on Link's face. the taste of dead mans blood in his taste buds. A creature charged at Midna, stabbing her horse threw the chest. The horse fell down, tumbling over herself. Midna lost balance and flew off of her horse....landing on her back, she painfully stood up, her weapons flew out of her hands as she had fell from her horse....that now lay dead. Midna stood up painfully, she ran for her swords- Link was unaware of this, creatures surrounded him and Epona, He whispered something into Eponas ear. Epona neighed loudly and Link jumped off of Epona's back, Epona giving him a boost. Link landed ontop of a creature, snapping the creatures bones, and smashing the evil animal. Link grinned at the other bewildered creatures, and he grinned, twirling his sword. They all turned and ran towards Midna, freightened of him. Link smirked and charged at them any way, just then finding out that Midna was being grabbed by the creatures. Link took out his heros bow and shot an arrow at one the creatures that held her back. The arrow hit him right in teh forehead, killing him emediatly. Link picked up Midna's swords, and tossed them at her. Midna grabbed them both in midair, turning quickly, and stabbing a creature that was coming up behind her. She looked at Link, "Thanks." And turned continueing to defend herself. Link nodded and blocked a blow that came for his head. He did spin attack, killing about five that were around him. Then it seemed as if more were coming....more surrounded both Link and Midna. I cant believe this! Link thought as he defended himself, Rusl! i new he was a trator! "Link!" Yelled Midna, pointing up at a hill, "Look!" Link looked up at the mountain, as the Sun began to rise, their, souhlotting the sunrise, was Rusl, his sword raised up high, and yelling, "CHARGE!" and a HUGE Rush of those creatures came sworming down the hill, weapons, swords, spears, and bows and arrows, Charged. And not to mention metal sheilds. Link smiled up at Rusl, and nodded his head to him, meaning, 'Thank you.' Rusl just shrugged like it was nothing, and charged down behind his men. Link smiled at Midna, who smiled back, "Maybe he's not that bad." said Midna. "Guess not." said Link. He and Midna both ran towards the havoc that just begun to start forming in the middle of Hyrule FIeld... they were going to win! but where was Gannondorf? Link hoped he'd show up soon.... And then again... he hoped he wouldn't. Link helped Midna fight a path way threw the armys of Gannon, blood and guts went everywhere. Link wiped blood off his face as they continued to charge. Rusl was a little bit away, fighting the creatures, Link could've sworn he saw Rusl cut a creatures eyes out with his knife. Link shuddered at the thought. Link had gotten a few stabb wounds, as he and Midna caught up to Rusl, who was starting to get badly injured from fighting with fury. Link could've sworn he heard Rusl mumble something like, 'Killed my family! my children! my Wife!' Great....we're already fighting out of anger... But Link didn't blame Rusl. Link felt like just fighting out of anger by his side. But, like Midna said, Had to keep his cool. Gannon's troops just kept on sworming, more and more of Rusl's men caming sotmring down the hill...those creatures must've came in big larg numbers. Link continued to fight, he looked over and saw Midna get stabbed in the side, she yelled in pain, but bopped a fist at the creature who had done so. Link started to run towards her when a large creature blocked his way of her. "Midna!" he yelled towards her. "I'm...Fine!" She yelled back, Link could hear her pull the daggar out. Then he saw a creature that was in front of her at the time, fall down dead. Link smiled. Then it slowly faded as he looked back up at the creature...the creature grinned, and pulled up a huge Axe. Link made a nervous laugh, and raised his sword, slashing it at the creature. The creature easily blocked it with his axe. Link groaned loudly in frustration, Rusl ran over to help, but was blacked off by a group of Gannon's men. Link tried his bow and arrow. He easily blocked the arrow. The creature yelled in pain all the sudden. Link blinked, he hadn't touched him.... Then, Link saw part of a sword come in threw the large creatures chest. It was Midna's. The creature fell face first to the earth. Link backed up, not wanting be crushed by the large creatures weight. Midna remained on the back of the creature, getting her sword out from it. Link smiled....just smiled, "Thanks..." Midna looked up and nodded....she struggled to get the sword out from the creatures back. Link walked over and grabbed her sword handle, and pulled it out for her. Felt like pulling the MasterSword out from the ground once more... He handed her the bloody sword, she smiled, "Thanks..." Link was about to s ay something else more, when he heard Rusl yell, "LOVE BIRDS! GET IN THE FIGHT!" Link jumped in surprise and started fighting again, how could he forget about the fight? Midna began to fight again as well....It was getting brutal...too brutal.....
A day went by...Link started to gasp for air as he kept fighting....Midna in terrible shape as well, Rusl...well, just Rusl. Link almost couldn't breathe....no matter how many men they were killing.....the more and more men that came. Link had scratched and wounds and stabb marks all over him. Midna...one of her swords snapped in two, so now she had a bow, and one sword. I cant...keep doing this.... Link thought as he stabbed another creature threw the chest... as another came by to try and take a swipe at him. Link blocked it weakly, and chopped off one of the creatures legs. Link stood back up, and turned blocking another blow.... "Link..." Midna moaned as she blocked a blow, she was on her knees. Link ran to her, and stabbed the creature, killing it. He helped her up, "Come...come on....we must...keep..." Link said.... "We...gotta win this..." Midna looked up at him with hopful eyes... "Link..." she whispered... "I'm too weak....." Link didn't know what else to say, "I...i know..." he said weakly, gasping for breath.. "Rusl?" he said weakly... no Rusl? He looked around him, "Rusl!" No sign of him.... Midna looked at him worriedly, and said, "Where is he?" All of Gannon's creatures started to get high in numbers again.... I must...keep going! he thought, forcing to swing hnis sword, and block a blow, Midna trying to stay in the fight as well.... After about an hour of fighting without Rusl....Link, collasped on the ground. "Link!" Midna yelled running towards him weakly, but she tripped, and was being crushed by the weight of another creature. SHe looked at Link's mangled body, his eyes were open, he was holding wounds that were on his side and chest...blood....Midna tried getting up, when she looked up at her was holding her down...she tried stabbing the creature, and it fell off her grabbing itself in pain. Midna ran over to Link, "Link!" she said as she got closer to him, "Link?" she said stroking his face gently...weakness in his eyes....blood and dirt all over. Link forced a smile, "I'm..i'm sorry..." Midna tried helping him to his feet....Link stood, but not very well, Rusl's men were holding back the evil creatures as they tried to Refresh. Link groaned in pain, olding his side wounds, "Link, we can do this, just keep trying..." Link knew she was right... "Keep going," she nodded, and she said, "Til death..." Link nodded, with a painful smile. They turned and ran towards the crowd of Gannon's forces. And attacked once more, Link trying to stay strong...but he knew...he knew he was dying. He looked up and saw a creature getting ready to stab him, he swung his sword, and stabbe dhim first in the chest. Midna twirled, blocking a blow that would of had cut her head off. She stabbed the creature, and looked up at Link...she gasped, "Link! Look out!!" Link looked at her, then to behind him, twirling around. Rusl stabbed Link in the chest. he yelled out in pain, Rusl smiled, he made sure that the blade sunk into his chest, pain like Link never imaged pulsed threw his veigns.... Midna ran towards him, "Link!" she yelled, but a crowed of Gannon's shrowed blocked her way. "Ru...Rusl...?" Link said painfully, still standing, with the blade still in his chest.... Rusl shook his head.... "Gannon." replied Rusl. Link blinked painfully, and he fell to his knees. Rusl laughed....
