[QUOTE="Kirby, post: 41604, member: 541"] [align=center][b][size=x-large]Chapter 17 Melton[/size][/b][/align] Melton stepped into Hyrule square. It's been about a month since he's come to the peaceful land of Hyrule, and nothing much has happened, except for the loss of his new friend, Reco. Melton, Link, Princess Zelda, and the Sages of the Twilight Mirror frantically searched the stone slab that Reco was "sucked" into. After about 3 days of continuous searching, they were forced to give in and go home, except for the sages. The chamber was their home, and they wanted further investigation on the matter. All Melton could do is sit and wait. It was odd that Hyrule was yet not even threatened from the black-armored soldiers. For some odd reason, they just couldn't find it, or so they think. Since the portal to the Mushroom Kingdom was shut down, Melton was cut off from the rest of the universe. This was something else that Melton didn't understand about Hyrule. It was stillÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã‚Â¦middle aged. Even with access to the modern world, Hyrule denied advancingÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã‚Â¦at all. At the portal to Hyrule, guards check anyone coming through to make sure that they didn't hold technology. This always confused Melton, but if a colony doesn't want to come to the modern world, so be it. Melton sat on the fountain in center Hyrule square. A few kids talk amongst themselves, telling stories of Hyrule's past, from Zelda coming to power, to an imp riding a wolf through the town, scaring everyone away. He gazed over at the Malo Mart, as always since Melton came, the store was bustling with customers and every that came out was carrying a bag with the face of this "Malo" on it, and singing a jingle: "You were smart! You bought it at Malo Mart!" Melton sighed, and gazed up at the sky. There were no clouds out today. He started to look back down to see a large being made almost all of rock staring at him. It was a Goron, as Zelda once told him. Once Melton made eye contact with the rock creature, it quickly looked away and stared into space. It must be the big mushroom head, Melton thought, and looked back down to the town. When his eyes made ground level, the mask of a sage of the Twilight Mirror was staring into his face. "Whoa!" Melton yelped and nearly fell back into the fountain. "Sorry to scare you, but we may have found something." The sage bowed before Melton. "Please, come." The sage grabbed Melton and together they vanished. The next thing he knew, Melton was at the Twilight Chamber. He quickly felt himself, making sure he came in one piece. It was cloudy, and it felt extremely humid; conditions for rain. A moment later, two more sages popped up, one holding Princess Zelda, one holding Link. Melton saw Link pat himself in surprise, making sure he came in one piece. "Why did you find?" Zelda quickly asked. A sage floated to the side of the large stone slab that stood tall in the chamber. He patted it and began. "Well, after many days of research, and focusing, we may have found a way to get one of you into the Twilight Realm." The sage started. Link's face lit up. "The current weather conditions make the slab of Twilight act up in ways where energy from it is emitted." He paused to catch his breath. "With the energy that young Reco used to get into the Twilight Realm, we may be able to harness it, and create a temporary warp." Melton grinned. He looked over and saw Link's face beaming. Melton heard that Link was fond of someone in the Twilight Realm, so maybe he thinks of it as a chance for a reunion. Melton looked over the black slab. It was steaming, most likely a result of the humidity and heat, like when something gets wet, and steams because it gets hot. The humid air was the explanation. Then, he felt rain. It started and picked up fast. Soon enough, it was pouring. Nobody did anything, mainly since they didn't expect rain. As the stone slab got drenched, it steamed even more, indicating that it must be more than 100 degrees Celsius. The sages took note of this quickly. "Ah!" One of them gasped, "It seems this rain makes it even more conditioned for transport! We should get started right away! All the sages gathered around the temple, they raised they're arms, making the arising steam become concentrated. They then gathered in one area, and pulled the steam or "energy" to the front of the slab, lined up with the mirror alter. Then they pushed the energy against the slab and condensed it again, spinning it around as if they wanted to drill a hole into the massive rock. Melton watched with amazement as the steam started glowing brightly. Soon enough, a portal came to life in front of them. "You must hurry! We can't hold this portal open for long!" One of the mages calmly shouted. Princess Zelda looked at Link, and then winced. "Why do you have that Link!?" Zelda shouted, staring at the hilt of his sheathed sword. Melton looked at it to notice it was different. It wasn't the Ordon sword that he showed Melton before, it had a blue hilt, finely designed with to wings coming out the side, and there was a glowing gem between the two wings. It was the Master Sword, the design of the hilt alone matched perfectly to the description Zelda gave him. Link looked back at his sword, he looked down, and shrugged. Melton guessed he shouldn't have it. Zelda's look of anger quickly melted to thought. "You shouldn't have that, but at least you can go with me." She said. Link's face beamed once more. Melton walked over to them, wanted to join them. "Can I go, too?" He asked, Zelda looked down to him, and smiled. "I'm sorry, but you can't." She murmured. "Only beings that have the ability to handle the Twilight or have an object that counters the Twilight can go." She said with disappointment. Melton felt displeased, but then realized something. "Can Reco handle the Twilight?" He asked. Zelda looked up in thought, the idea must've not hit her before. "Hurry!" A sage strained, "We can't hold this much longer!" "I don't know, I hope so." She replied, and jumped through the portal. Link nodded to Melton, and followed the Princess. The portal closed. Melton stood in front of the stone slab, disappointed. The sages floated down beside him. "I'm sorry you couldn't go, you must want to see your friend." He tried to comfort him. Melton looked back up to the sky, remembering when he first met him on the tour bus. He had no idea that Reco and him would be in this situation. "ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã‚Â¦Would you like to go back to the Town Square?" A sage asked. "YeaÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã‚Â¦" Melton said, now in thought. In an instant, Melton was grabbed by the hand, and whisked to Hyrule Town Square. Melton looked around. A few people stared at him, wondering where he came from, but for the most part, the town remained in its bustling state. Melton then thought of the Mushroom Kingdom, was it still taken over? An idea struck his mind, but he was going to wait for night to put this plan to action * * * That night, Melton walked to the Mushroom Kingdom portal. It still remained off so Hyrule couldn't be invaded. The portal guard stood at the gate, seeing Melton as he walked up. "Can I help you?" he asked one hand on his sword. "Actually, yes." Melton started. He wondered if he should say this. "Can you open the portal for me?" The guard jumped somewhat. He looked at Melton with a curious glare and then looked at the portal. "Are you kidding me?" The guard said. The reaction was expected as much by Melton. "Yes, I want to see if the Mushroom Kingdom is still overrun. Can you open it for me?" Melton said. He knew wasn't getting anywhere fast. "No, there could be enemies waiting for us to open this portal!" The guard retorted. Melton thought for a moment, and then he came up with an idea. "Then let's make a deal." He said. The guard perked up. "What kind of deal?" "Open the portal," Melton started, "when I go through, wait 30 seconds, if I don't come back saying that it's safe, then shut down the portal." The guard thought for a moment, he pondered for a moment before speaking again. "Fine, but only for 20 seconds, deal?" He stated. "Fine." Melton said. It wasn't much time, but there was always a chance. The guard hit a few controls on the portal panel, and the portal came to life. Melton nodded and jumped through. The first thing Melton saw was troops. His heart jumped and then froze. The troops pointed their guns at him, but then pointed down. "He's not a hostile!" The troops said. Melton tilted his head and looked over the soldiers. They looked strangely familiar, as if they have visited beforeÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã‚Â¦ Then it struck him. They were Cornerian troops! They have been to the Kingdom before, but they were here now! "Why are you here?" Melton said in excitement. "We were here to liberate the Mushroom Kingdom, which we have succeeded on. By the way, what'sÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã¢â‚¬Â" "Hold that thought." Melton interrupted. He stepped back into the portal. As soon as he saw the guard he gave thumbs up and smiled brightly. "Huh?" The guard said, hand on the power button. "The Mushroom Kingdom has been liberated! It's safe to keep the portal on!" Melton said, jumping up and down. "What?" The guard said. The Cornerian troop that talked to Melton first came through the portal. The guard put his hand to his sword, but Melton quickly explained. "It's ok! He's with us, he's friendly!" He shouted excitement as took over him. The two soldiers eyed each other, and then went at ease. "Is it true?" The guard asked. The Cornerian troop nodded. "Yes, it's true. The Mushroom Kingdom has been liberated." Melton cheered loudly, and jumped back through the portal with anticipation. [/QUOTE]
