Chapter 7
As Link entered the forbidden room it slammed shut behind him. He spun around and then back again. He could hear a silent movement pacing through the room. He drew his sword from his sheath and pulled the shield up over his chest. The quiet creeping stopped, but nothing happened. It was just plain silence. Link was getting uneasy. He shuffled his feet nervously. He backed up towards the torch that was near his back. He bumped into it, so he spun around alarmed. He stared at it making out its form. He got an idea and quickly lit it causing the room to light up on that side. Link then suddenly saw it. It was a gigantic animal. It looked as though it was a........wolf like monster! The wolf backed up and hid in the shadows growling silently. Link carefully walked up near it and raised his sword higher planing to destroy the creature quickly without pain. The wolf looked at Link for a moment and growled again. He bolted forward through Link's legs causing Link to fall back. Link scrambled back up again and desperately searched the room for the wolf. It's eyes gave the creature away. They were brightly shining yellow and lit up like a candle. Link murmured something under his breath and charged forward with the sword. The wolf sprang like a flash and Link only struck stone with his sword. But before Link could turn around for his next attack the wolf jumped on Link's back and sunk his teeth in slowly. Link cried out in pain and jerked his hands around the wolf's neck and savagely strangled it. The wolf clamped harder and Link tightened more. Link could feel the wolf getting looser on his back gasping for breath. Link fell back landing on the wolf's body. The wolf couldn't hold in any longer so he let go. Link took the opportunity and grabbed his sword and jabbed it into the wolf's stomach. Blood jugged out and the wolf's yellow eyes slowly faded into a dull green and then into a black. The door opened again and Link turned around to enter Room two.
The next room was much different. It was lit up and a platform was in the center of the room. It was spinning madly. It reminded Link of the Windmill in Kakariko Village. He smiled at the thought but quickly disposed it as he heard a creaky sound from across the room. He pulled out his Hookshot and aimed at a wooden board that hung above the spinning platform. He shot at it and his body lifted from the ground the drop onto the platform. He looked around to find nothing. He could still hear the creaking noise from across him. He bit his lip hard and thought about how he was supposed to defeat an invisible being. The creaking grew louder and a heavy breathing soon took it's place. Link could suddenly feel a hot breath on his face and he quickly slashed out hitting something. The invisible thing cried out in pain and backed up. Link jumped to the other side and listened for the breathing. He heard it coming closer again and he brought the shield up closer. A sharp pain slash his back and he spun around and lashed out. Blood spilled on the floor and Link saw the blood dripping from air. He followed it and kept striking until a blue cloud of smoke filled the room. He stopped in his tracks not sure if it was a trap. It cleared when he saw a chest in front of him. He opened it and peered inside. It was a key. He stuffed it inside of his pocket and left the room to Door Number three.

The room was just a little different from the other one was, but not quite. It was brightly lit with a platform in the center but it wasn't spinning. There were also chandlers hanging from the ceiling. Link looked curiously around expecting something horrible and ugly to be hiding somewhere. The room was booming in noise though. The crackling of the fire, the creaking of the old floors, the swinging motion of the chandlers, and the slight breathing of Link sounded much better to him than total silence. Link closed his eyes and concentrated on feeling something alive in the room. (Hylians could do that since they have a sixth sense.) He couldn't feel anything. He was puzzled a little than looked around some more in case it was a puzzle room. Nothing seemed to be a clue, so Link jumped onto the platform and than onto the other side. A tiny picture of the Triforce was embedded into the wall. Link quickly took out his Ocarina and played Zelda's Lullaby. Suddenly a door opened in front of him! It was hidden so no wonder he didn't see it in the first place. Link walked in and looked around. The next room was dimly lit and a soft yet stomach curdling music was playing. Link held his stomach as pain shot through it. He stumbled forward and felt dizzy and sick. He suddenly felt his feet falling from underneath him and he collapsed. He struggled getting to his feet but than heard a bellowing laugh rocking through the room. A dark figure came out from the clouds that had swallowed the room when he had fallen. It came closer until Link could make out his figure. It was Ganondorf! Link gasped under his breath while insane thoughts were running through his mind. Ganon's laugh suddenly turned into a fearful snarl of hatred. "So, we meet again, dear Link?" Ganondorf sneered. "Well, why don't we play a little game of torture?" Ganondorf raised up a shimmering knife that was as sharp as an ice blade, and suddenly it was aiming straight at Link.
Link stumbled forward beginning to feel dizzy and uneasy again. He could barely see as his sight was darkening. He tried to force himself to move forward but it felt as though he was being held back by his own feet. He suddenly felt his feet falling from beneath him and he fell on his knees. Finally, he could no longer see anything as he fell forward and hit the ground. The last thing he remembered was a wave of total darkness.
