A Link in Time

Fourteen: Ganon

~Twilight's POV~

"So... you really want to know what happened to me?" Heather questioned, looking between us. We nodded, making her sigh before putting her fork down. "Alright. Well, he tried to starve me, giving me small amounts of food. Then because I kept killing the bokoblins that we're watching me, he moved me to solitary confinement-which I also guess could kill someone from boredom. Then on his 'surprise' visits, which were pretty frequent, he would just do normal torture stuff to me. He scarred up my back pretty good."

          "What did he do to you Heather...?" Sky questioned, lowering his voice. This earned us another sigh from her.

         "I'm not going into details but there was a sword and whip involved and if I ever see his ugly face again, it'll be too soon," With that she went back to eating. Sky and I casted a glance at each other and looked back to her.

         "What about those?" I questioned, motioning to her wrist. She looked at us for a second before looking down at her wrists. Gulping down what she had in her mouth, she pulled down her sleeve so we could see the long line of scars better.

         "Self inflicted from a long time ago. You don't have to worry though, I've stopped for... a year? Two years now? Eh, somewhere in there." We gave her a confused look, "My family wasn't the best, I had major depression and was suicidal. I um... actually tried a few times but Skylor and Allison were always there and made sure I didn't, otherwise I wouldn't be here right now."

         "You... you were suicidal?" Sky questioned in amazement. You wouldn't think that she was ever like that. She's bubbly, fun to be around, and never showed any signs. Well, I guess she did say she was over it, but still.

        "Yeah, from about as long as I can remember up until about a year or two ago when I finally moved out and into an apartment with Skylor, Allison and our friend, Megan, for college. They made sure I didn't kill myself while I was there and a bunch of other things I can't really repay them for...." she looked down and sighed, "and that's really the reason I don't want to tell them what Ganon did to me. I don't want them to feel like I'm going to go back and be suicidal and depressed and all that fun stuff." We nodded, understanding her situation. It would be better if they did know what she was put through, but it's on her whether or not she tells them.

"You can always tell Wild, too. He's been through a lot and has a lot of scars," I said, smiling at her.

"I know," she replied, smiling as well. That's when Majora and Allison came back, bags of items in hand.

"Okay, so I didn't know ya'lls' sizes, so I went two shirts up from Majora 'cause you all have the same frame n' what not. But I mean, I tried. Anywho, I got ya'll some nice clothes and all that." Allison walked over and handed Sky, Heather, and I some bags, all full of items. I was going to ask how much this all was but Majora just shook his head, a scared look on his face. Time is not gonna be happy...

~Wild's POV~

        "You're gonna pat for taking Heather!" Skylor started, taking one of the spears from the ground, as some bokoblins were in here and were fairly easy to defeat. Ganon just raised an eyebrow at her as he turned to face her. The rest of us stared at him, a burning fire to take him down, and holding our swords out in front of us. Ready if he tries anything.

        Though, Ganon just waved his hand and the Yiga clan members surrounding the room jumped into action. Skylor just glared at one of the smaller members before whacking him upside the head and making him back away from her. The rest of us fought the bigger members while Skylor scared the smaller ones. Telling them 'if I scare you, run.' Which is what they did. Wow. Blocking the attacks and hitting the members back, we were able to kill them without any major injuries. When I turned around, Skylor was already slapping Ganon with the spear, making him back away from her. She really doesn't like him...

         "You mother fucker! This is for taking Heather!" Skylor whacked him in the face with the pointed end of the spear, making a gash appear on his cheek. That was before Wind pulled Skylor back so she wouldn't kill him. "Wind no! Let me kill him!"

       "No! We have to understand why he wanted Heather!" Wind started, as I walked over, holding my master sword tightly in my grip. He looked up at me with a smile.

         "Tell me why you wanted Heather." I stated, leaving no room for him to argue. He propped himself up on his elbows before talking.

        "To get back at you, of course. You have beaten me time and time again; taking away the things I find most precious. And this time, I wanted you to feel what I have felt for decades now. So how does it feel? Knowing you'll never get to see your beloved again, Link?" He questioned, letting out a long laugh, only for it to get cut short when Time and Dark showed up.

        "Heather's safe, she's back at the house with Twilight, Sky, Majora and Allison, Wild," Time spoke up, making me sigh and release a breathe I didn't know I held in. Thank god she's okay! I turned my attention back to Ganon, seeing his angry reaction.

         "You may have foiled my plans this time, but mark my words! I'll be back and next time I'll destroy you once and for all!" I let him finish just to humor him before getting the final hit on him, making him disappear. Hopefully for the last time until a new Link appears with him as the main protagonist. When I turned, I saw Skylor pouting beside Wind. I tilted my head as I walked over, hearing her mumble, 'I wanted to kill the asshat...' which made me and Wind laugh.

        Once we finished cleaning out the Yiga clan and other monsters in the castle, we found Zelda and the king in one of the many cell blocks in the castle. Letting them out, we were given a gift and something for Heather as to apologize for letting this get so far out of hand. Though, I have a feeling that she'll forgive them either way. They had no way of knowing that this would happen.
