Chapter 5 Ryan met with the other sages in their own tent.
“Well what is happening?” asked Andy as he looked up from the floor
“We are going to battle in one hour,” announced Ryan
“What!? So soon!? But we don’t know how to use our powers,” Rachel reminded them.
Ryan simply said, “Just think of what you want and your element will guide you, apparently.” Ryan told them the plan. They were to fight alongside the army, who were getting ready at that very moment.
The sages, practised their magic, preparing for the fight ahead. Luke snapped his fingers to send fireballs which Rachel contained with bubbles caused by her swipes. Andy raised his hands to summon chunks of earth towards the targets that they were given. Cara practised with vine like wipes that she summoned from her hands.
“Move Out!” they heard Link shout out. The Sages marched with the army to where once a few hours ago their playing field was, only to find it had turned into a burned out wasteland where Ganondorf’s army waited for them.
They had finished off the human army with ease, captured or killed all who were in the school and they were hungry for more blood. The Sages grew angry at these monsters who had brought so much tragedy on this school and their world. Their emotions became power as each sage got their own weapon of their element. Then the command of Ganondorf’s army and the Hyrillan army as each one cried out:
“Charge!” as each army charged there were many swords clashing against swords, screeches and screams of pain. The howling of the wolfos. The twang of the bows. Everywhere was the sound of the war. But the sages knew what to do.
Cara the Sage of Forest with her leaf blade was hacking down a white wolfos, her movements with the sword, confusing her enemy with the speed of her unpredictable strikes and with 3 slashes and stabs the wolfos was dead.
She felt proud of herself for her first win…unti she saw what was coming towards her… an Iron Knuckle. She was told that these enemies were capable of sending a tank flying. She wished that something would come and protect her. Her powers answered her, a giant oak grew before her and without thinking she commanded it to destroy the iron knuckle. The tree brought its wrath on the knuckle like an enormous hammer to a nail turning the knuckle in to a flat metal dish.
Luke was fighting alongside Debbie in their struggle against the Wizzrobes; Luke’s fireball attack constantly dispelled by the wizzrobes’ own. Until Debbie intervened. She summoned a sandstorm to howl at the wizzrobes causing them to be unable to do their magic
“Get them Luke!” and with his friend’s command he blasted them with a scorching heat wave from his Sword of Flames. After that combination the wizzrobes fell to the floor having being imprisoned in glass and they shattered into thousands of pieces upon impact and killing the enemies beneath them. With more enemies surrounding them Luke cast Din’s Fire around them and commanded it to expand and burn all enemies to ashes without harming any of their own army.
Rachel was surrounded by 4 Bokoblins each armed with large maces and were about to charge her from each direction. But a second before being skewered she disappeared. The bokoblins were confused but not for long when Rachel reformed herself from the puddle she had transformed into and with elegant dance-like sword strikes killed each one.
Andy, fearing for Rachel’s safety joined her in her fight. Any enemy who opposed these friends was either drowned with her powerful water blasts which erupted from her hands like geysers or crushed with boulders summoned by Andy from the earth and flung them at the monsters and if that wasn’t enough for them his huge Stone sword and her Blade of the Sea would finish them off.
Devon was faced by a shadow beast, an evil 4 legged beast that had dangerous claws and a deadly poison. Devon was unsure of her element. How could Spirit be used in a battle? As the shadow beast advanced for the kill Devon raised her Scimitar in a defensive position and screamed for help. Just as the beast was about to leap at her she shut her eyes and prayed for help. She opened her eyes to the beast screeching in pain as its arm had been cut off, and her Spirit scimitar was floating back to her. Her blade could be controlled by her mind, using her new found psychic-like powers, her blade finished her enemy with one ending blow and she continued to battle. After killing another wolfos she met with Cara and they joined together to fight, Cara summoning trees and Devon lifting them up and using it as a club with her powers along with her scimitar.
Katie faced the same moblin that killed her teacher but she knew exactly what to do
“I’ll kill you just as I killed that hag,” threatened the monster. Katie just stood there with her arms crossed staring at the monster, ready to act when it did.
With a roar the monster began to swing his spear at Katie. She disappeared and in her place 20 illusions of herself surrounded the moblin and they all got their Sai of the Night ready to strike the monster. The monster laughed this attempt off and with one mighty full body swing of his spear he hit all the Katies but they just disappeared upon contact and the monster didn’t have enough time to be puzzled. The real Katie reappeared above him and as she fell she got her true Sai of the Night using the force of her fall, stabbed the monster through the head killing him instantly.
Ryan saw what Katie did and was inspired to fight his best, using his light sword he slashed at the dragon warrior he faced, shooting with his light beams when it was flying to bring it down. Soon all of the sages were battling together and combining powers such as when three Iron Knuckles approached Rachel and Debbie. Andy sent a huge chunk of earth to Devon who held it above the monsters, Luke melted it down to lava and the iron knuckles burned in that attack. But there were so many enemies. Many of the Hyrilinas, Zoras and Gorons were dead and the sages were tired. Ryan called out
“By the powers that we have we shall cleanse this land of the dark army!” and with that the sages held their weapons to the air. Cara’s Leaf Blade, Luke’s Sword of Flames, Rachel’s Sword of the Sea, Andy’s Stone Sword, Debbie’s Wind Blades, Katie’s Sai of the Night, Devon’s Spirit Scimitar and Ryan’s Light Sword. The powers of the sages combined into one little glowing speck but it grew and grew. Ryan commanded
“Now!” and the speck turn into an orb which surrounded the sages and it expanded with all the colours of the sages and killed every enemy without harming anyone else. The battle was over. Many had died but now thanks to the sages all the army was destroyed. The sages were all tired after the battle, “We won…” panted Ryan.
“We did good didn’t we?” said Andy. But all was not over, for in the centre of the battlefield a voice cried out in emotional agony “
No!”
