Link x Princess!Reader-Escaping Royalty part 12

You stared at the ground beneath you in silence while Nicolei paced around.

"Where could they be already?"He cursed at himself.Soon,you heard two pairs of footsteps enter behind you and Nicolei looked up.

"What took you two so long to get here?!"he snaps.

"Sorry but our captive decided to collapse on us."Thorn says,entering the chamber along with Lizet.You slowly look up and see Link slung limply over Thorn's shoulder,seemingly unconscious.

You watched as they chained Link up just like how you were diagonally from where you where bound.

"Finally..we can begin!"Nicolei said.Lizet approached Link and slapped her palm right across his face.Immediately Link's eyes snapped open and looked right past Lizet at you.HE gasped at the sight of strange markings singed all over your arm,face,and neck.Everywhere that he could see you were covered.

"________!!Are you okay?What happened?!"Link shouted,instantly turning his glare towards Nicolei,Thorn,and Lizet."What did you do to her?I swear I'll kill you!"Nicolei chuckled.

"I didn't do anything but bring out her true colors.This is what _______ is.It's what she was created for."he says.

"________ was born!Not created!And her purpose isn't to fulfill your evil wishes!________ IS NOT SOMETHING YOU CAN USE!"Link hollered,pulling hard on his chains.

"You speak nonsense!This is what ________ was created for!She was born to fulfill this moment!To resurrect lord Ganondorf's wishes and to lead us to conquer the Twilight Realm!"Nicolei bellowed.Link stared at you now.

"_______!Why don't you say anything?!Come on!You know what you are!Don't let this guy make you think you're something else!"he says.You look up at him as Nicolei placed a hand on your head.

"Link..I...he's right.I am just something to be used..Just a portal!That's the only reason why exist..Even Zelda knew...I..I'm not really a person.."you whimper.Link's eyes widen and he pulled on his chains once more.

"_______ what are you talking about?Where is all this coming from?You know you're not a portal!You're a human being!"

"Link look at me!I am not a normal human being!"you shout back.

"Of course you're not a normal human _______!You're special!You're extraordinary!There's nobody else like you and the ________ I know knows that!You're your own person!You don't have to do this just because of what Nicolei says!It's not true!None of it is!"

"I don't care what you say Link...You can't change what I am at all.I'm really just a stupid doorway.I don't really have a body and once the doorway is open and completed,this one will disappear."you say softly."I'll be forgotten.."Before Link could speak up,Nicolei was clapping his hands.

"Well said.Now I would hate to prolong this any longer,lets get right to it shall we?"he says.Thorn and Lizet nod.

"Yes."they say in unison.Link watched as Thorn,Lizet,and Nicolei extended their hands out towards you and began to chant in the old Hylian language.Dark magic swirled around you from their palms before engulfing your body.

You gasped as the dark energy entered you.You felt it fester and swirl around inside you and it burned deeply.You wail and shrike in pain as the scriptures on your body began to glow brightly in the color blue.You felt your stomach feel as if it were on fire and was being ripped out.

Your skin began to pale and your eyes began to fade as the image of a ringed Triforce appeared on your forehead and stomach.It shined brightly through your dress and multiple rings around it began to form.

Suddenly,the Triforce symbol grew and the marks detached themselves off of your body.They levitated outward in front of you.The symbols swirled and spun around each other fast before shining even brighter.

"Yes,at last!"Nicolei exclaimed.

"No!!_______!Stop!You have to stop it!"Link called to you,but you could barely hear him.Your body was overcome by pain and ultimately felt numb.You couldn't move an inch.Link growled and pulled on his chains with all his might.

"Damn..come on..break.."He scowled,pulling hard on the chains but all he ended up with was hurt arms.Nicolei laughed.

"There's nothing that can stop it!The doorway is opening!"he yells as the three watch the Triforce symbol levitate over to the large boulder.He laughed maniacally as the Triforce embedded itself onto the boulder and the rings around it began to flash vividly.

"It's finally happening!I've won!!"Nicolei yelled.Suddenly Lizet gasped in pain and fell to her knees as something pierced her.Thorn and Nicolei immediately look over and see a light arrow lodged in her side.

"What?!"Nicolei,Thorn,and Lizet looked in the arrow's direction and see none other than Zelda standing there aiming another light arrow at them with a golden bow clenched tightly in her hands.

Link looked over and a relieved smiled formed on his lips.

"Princess Zelda!"Zelda looked over at Link then back at Nicolei and his gang.

"I should have known you were after ________ for the portal from the start."She says.Nicolei chuckles.

"Yes but you're too late!The portal is already opening and you can't stop it for if you try,you'll only ending up killing ________!"Zelda steps closer.

"I'm well aware of that fact,however I don't intend on letting you go through it."she says.Nicolei growled and took a step back.

"You think you can stop us?We have lord Ganondorf's magic flowing within us!HE lives within us!"he shouted."Us combined,we are stronger than you!"

"That's right!"Lizet growled as she ripped the light arrow right out of her side.Zelda glanced over at her from the corner of her eye then back at Nicolei and Thorn.

"Alright.."she says,quickly turning and aiming her light arrow at Link.

"Eh?!What are you doing?!"Link gasped,eyes wide.Zelda let the arrow go and sent it flying at him."Ah!"Link ducked his head as the arrow flew by the chains that bound one of his wrists,breaking it on impact.

Link sighed and looked at his free wrist.His eyes lit up happily and he smirked at Nicolei as he pulled the other wrist free on his own.Zelda prepared another arrow and aimed it at Nicolei.

"Well..what are the scores now?"she asks.Nicolei smirked.

"E-even with that fool free he's useless without his sword&shield!"he says.Links sighed.

"He's right,I can't do anything without my sword!"he says.

"Wait.."a faint whisper was heard.Link along with everybody else looked up and saw five ghostly figures standing on the six large pillars that surrounded the chamber.

"It's the sages.."Link murmurs.

"Damn..not them.."Nicolei growls.

"Great hero Link...who stands before us.Please,allow us to lend you our power in place of your sword and shield..."The sages spoke.Link pursed his lips and stepped forward towards them.The sages then released their energy into Link.The energy surged through Link's body like electricity.

Link's body glowed brightly for a moment as the power settled into him.Link looked down and saw a glowing sword and shield clasped tightly in his hands.He testily swung the sword before holding it up and smirking.

"Oh yeah..this will work."he says,Nicolei glared at Link and drew his own sword made from dark magic while Thorn pulled out a dark bow and arrow,aiming it at Zelda.

Zelda gripped her bow tighter and aimed it at Thorn.

"Ready?"she asks Link.He nods and points his sword at Nicolei.

"Ready!"
