Snap.
I turned to see what had made the sound. There was nothing here between the hedges that could've made a sound besides myself. There were no stray twigs on the ground, nothing. After a minute I decided to ignore it and keep walking. Then I felt as though I was being followed. I stopped and turned around, but no one was there. I started to get very suspicious, but again, brushed it off and continued walking back towards the Tower of Songs.
When I walked out of the hedges and came upon the Tower, I heard the sound again. Snap. And then I saw where it came from. I looked up, and standing on the top of the entryway of the Tower, was what seemed to be a woman at first glance. But a second look told me it was a man. He had white hair cut short but came down to cover his right eye. His white clothes were more or less there and had diamond shaped holes in them. He was leaning on one leg and had a hand on his hip. He spoke. "So!...This is what the Goddess has come up with to compete with me!" He half chuckled and looked me up and down "Well...I wouldnt say its a terrible job...still not as breathtaking as I!"
I was almost offended by this comment. "Who are you?"
He opened his arms graciously as he said this, "I am the fabulous Demon Lord Ghirahim! And you my dear, are my slightly less fabulous counterpart, just an attempt of that Goddess to duplicate my powers and beauty!" He started caressing his own face.
I scoffed and said, "Well what force of nature would make you so confident?"
Ghirahim snapped and disappeared.I heard another snap and he reapeared right in front of me. He leaned forward and pointed a white-gloved finger to my face. "Because, Darling, looking at you, my so called counterpart, anything near as beautiful as you must be blindingly goregous." He poked my nose and licked his lips. I backed up with a disgusted look on my face.
"Oh come now, Darling. Dont be afraid!"
"What do you want with me? Why are you here?"
He sighed. "Well...when my master told me that the Goddess had created a counterpart of myself I decided that there could only be one me and set out to kill you..."
I backed up a bit more.
"But..." he looked at me "now I think I may just have you join me."
"No." I didn't even need to give it any thought. Ghirahim was not pleased by this at all. He snapped again and a black sword closely representing the Master Sword appeared out of thin air.
"wha-?! how did you?!"
"You like it?" Ghirahim asked as he stroked the sword "What? you can't summon your birth-sword? Aw...what a pity..if you had joined me I would've personally taught you." He looked back at me "Still set in your ways..Fi?"
"Yes...." I was a bit scared at this point and Ghirahim sensed it. He charged at me with his sword and i floated out out of the way. When he missed he chuckled and said, "It seems as though we have different specialties...but I'm the one with the weapons here!" He snapped again and this time red diamonds appeared around him. He half laughed and snapped again. The diamonds came flying towards me at a deadly rate. I screamed out of surprise and dodged most of them, letting one nick my arm on accident. I floated away and dropped to the ground and started running. Ghirahim snapped and disappeared.
I ran back towards the Tower, emerging from the hedges and collapsed at the entrance. With heavy breathing, I removed my hand and saw that my arm was stained red with my blood. I examined the wound. It wasnt so deep but was still bleeding a decent amount. I looked around still weary that Ghirahim was still there, lurking ,somewhere behind the hedges. Until I heard the snap again I eased myself a little. I put my hand over the wound and took a deep breath and concentrated. A blue light began to glow from my hand and the wound slowly healed. I sat there for a while trying to process exactly what happened.
