The Princess of Twilight

By: Cutegirlmayra (So... it's been awhile. sorry for the delay, things happened and are happening as well... hope you enjoy this story though. if your reading this far, then you must be right? Shout outs to all who think I'm torturing Zelda.. cause in all honesty..

I haven't even started yet.)

Ganon picked up the completely knocked out Princess and slung her over his shoulder. He turned back to the two men, "Come. The ceremony will begin now."

"Now?" the two men both spoke in unsion, as if they were almost dreading the thought.

"But, Ganon-" Dark Link began, shifting back to his almost humanly appearance. He was cut off by Ganon's large and alongigated sword that swiped at him and stopped right at his nose.

"Really, Shadow. I'm beginning to wonder where your loyalities lie. Has this wrench revived the feelings of the true hero in you? In such a case, I would have no need of you, And you know what happens next." Ganon ticked his sword to the side, making Dark Link flinch slightly. He looked at the limp body of Zelda and then down. His eyes were hidden by his black hair over his face, as he lifted his hand to his heart in a fist, and knelt to Ganon's feet.

"Now, why would I betray myself by letting my other's feelings control me? I serve he who owns my soul. Which would be you, Lord Ganondorf."

Ganon huffed a light laugh, and then walked out of the shadow realm and back into the lighted area. The whole field shifted as the dark vortex behind Shard and Dark Link disappeared as they entered it too. Shard folding his arms as Dark Link got up and walked a head of him, both watching intensily at the scene playing out before them. The lightened area shifted as well, the walls became that of some kind of bubble as the outside world was then shown. They had entered the Crystal that Ganon had used to communicate with Shard and Dark Link before. "The girl will not be limp for long, Chain her to the pillars of Deceit, Greed, Anger, and Envy." Ganon commanded, pointing to each pillar with different markings on it. He placed Zelda down in the circled center of the ruin, and she gently rolled to her back. The two men looked at eachother, a moment of unwillingness, however they looked away and with expressionless faces they chained each one of Zelda's limps up to one of the four pillars. "How long have I awaited this moment?" Ganon begun to speak. "At long last, liberty!" Both Dark Link and Shard listened, but there faces held no glory in this act. They knew that, unbenounce to Zelda, she had a sacred power within her, passed down from the royal blood line of Hyrule from generation to generation. She was literally the life source of the land, a cycle of power was equally disturbuted from her and the land itself in perfect balance. As Ganon began the ceremony, Zelda's body was lifted into the air, a beautiful and intricite strings of bright and seemingly tangable mist came gracefully down into the center circle of the ceremony ruin. Suddenly, the cycle was right before the men's eyes, as they saw the earth suddenly give off that same pattern of strings that whipped back and forth as they flew into Zelda's body, and her power flew down to it. "Behold, the ancient bond of Hyrule. A legend of pure and untoucable power that has never been messed with for billions of years." He slowly swiped his hand through the strings, they flew off into mist at the direction he had moved his hand through them, but then rejoined into thier elegant dances. "Life Force. With this very force, all of Hyrule and the power of Gods will be at my finger tips. I will be able to grant myself life once more!" He opened his arms out wide, the strings shook and formed into gaggid lines that suddenly began to bend toward him. "Come to me, anicent power of this blessed land. Come, and bring me my to my glory!" Zelda whinced and let out small whimpers of pain, tossing her head side to side as the bubble like mirror showed the castle growing dark and crumbling. The land was feeling the power loosen as well, and with Zelda being there life source, began to feel the illness of the beginnings of death. The plants surround the castle begun to wither away, it's once jungle like surrounds slowly dimmed into a brown and dieing world. The lines looked so close to touch, until Ganon's very eyes glew with there shine. But before coming into contact with him, Ganon thrusted his unsheathed sword into Shard.
