Ganondorf's barrier fell. The Sages and Joe rushed to the dead heroes but there was nothing anyone could do.  7 years of separation... an eternity together in death.

“Ganondorf!” Joe shouted to the evil king, his rage building inside him. Ganondorf stopped and turned to face this foolish boy.

 “You have committed murder here! You won’t get away with this,”

Ganondorf laughed at the mere threat.

“And what are going to do about it? You humans are all alike! You are weak! Those two are dead because they stood in my way and they have no power. Not like the absolute power that I have. With this kind of power I will be king of all!”

Stunned by his words Joe gathered his courage and replied, “There is no such thing as absolute power! Power is something you use to defend those dear to you. If you could understand things like friendship and love you would understand,” Joe pick up the Master Sword, holding it in both hands due to its weight.

 “And I wish to protect this world and my friends, those people who I care for. You, Ganondorf have abused the power of the Triforce for far too long and now we shall set things right.”

Ganondorf saw the boy facing him now. A boy holding a sword that was too big for him and all he could do was laugh at this pathetic excuse of a last stand.

 “You may laugh at me, but I will fight for my friends,” and with that he charged.

Ganondorf didn’t even bother to draw his blade to him. Once he was near enough he kicked Joe so hard in his face that he was sent flying back. Unconscious.

 “Now to take over all worlds.”

--

He was floating, somewhere. Joe opened his eyes; he saw two figures standing before him. He looked up to see their faces. Link and Zelda.

“Hi guys,”

They just looked at him, their faces solemn

“I tried to beat Ganondorf... but he is too strong... how do you beat ultimate power?”

“In this case,” Zelda finally said, “Not with the power of the Sages... but with the power of friendship... prove what you just said to Ganondorf.” She raised her hand as Link raised his.

--

With new life in him Joe leapt up out of his blackout and once more called out:

“Ganondorf! We are not finished yet!” he turned around, only having advanced a few paces further since Joe’s blackout. Ganondorf drew his weapons and Joe gripped the Master Sword tightly with both hands.

“My friends are my power!”

Ganondorf said to himself, “How amusing.”

They charged each other, both thinking of death to each other. They were about to meet with a jumping attack, which would kill Joe. Suddenly a great tree sprouted between them carrying Joe in its branches and knocking Ganondorf of his feet.

“Let me handle this!” Cara shouted as she threw a vine at Joe, making it grab the Master Sword from Joe’s hands, and turned it upon Ganondorf, waving her vine like a whip, causing the Master Sword to slash at him. He lashed out with his sword slicing the vine, sending the Master Sword flying. Joe jumped from the tree and grabbed the sword in mid-fall; Ganondorf was quickly upon him, he pressed his blade hard against the block that Joe put up, his weight crushing him. Another sword clashed against Ganondorf’s. Joe looked up to see Luke helping him, his sword burning against his. With their combined strength Ganondorf was pushed back until he swung his sword at Luke forcing him to back off or be sliced. He turned and stabbed at Joe hoping it would end his life, but he sidestepped and raised the sword high above his head and brought it down on Ganondorf’s with all his might, the power of the Master Sword shattering Ganondorf’s blade in half. Ganondorf skidded back suddenly and threw the remainder of his blade at Joe, who had to duck to avoid losing his head. As he quickly raised his head he saw Ganondorf running at him, his sword ready to end his life. Joe saw the anger in his eyes and was paralysed with fear. From behind Joe a quick burst of water stopped Ganondorf in his tracks, spluttering for air.

“Quickly get him out of the way!” Rachel shouted out. Debbie, who was jumping through the air on clouds formed at her feet, picked up Joe and deposited him on Cara’s tree. Ganondorf was surrounded by Andy, Luke, Rachel and Debbie and they started attacking him with all their power. Rachel slowed him down with her water blasts from her palms allowing the others to harm him as much as possible. Luke burned him with a flamethrower from his sword, Andy slamming his Stone Sword upon the ground shaking the ground under Ganondorf’s feet. Debbie, still floating, waved her glowing swords sending gusts of wind at Ganondorf. Ganondorf quickly used his dark magic to create an expanding force of evil that sent the sages flying back. Joe quickly got back to his feet dodging an attack from Ganondorf. Katie appeared in front of Joe, her Sais at the ready, she sidestepped out Ganondorf’s attack,

“Back off Joe! Here we go!” she shouted. She lunged at Ganondorf striking his arm, quickly rolling behind him as he swung his blade at her. She leapt onto his back and attempted to stab his neck, but he spun faster than she expected and she snapped her fingers vanishing from his back to a few feet in front of him,

“What’s the matter, scared?!” she shouted at Ganondorf. He laughed as he lunged; Katie locked his blade with her Sais and shouted, “Ok finish him!” 

Ryan appeared behind Katie and fired a beam of light at Ganondorf preventing him from doing anything. Devon used her power to grab Joe and told him,

“This is it! Finish him with all your might!” And with that she flung Joe high into the air above Ganondorf, holding him above him,

“Now get him!” Cara shouted as Joe pointed the Master Sword downward and Devon let go. He fell and with the force of the fall, his wish to protect his friends and his world and to avenge Link and Zelda was granted as he broke through Ganondorf’s head.
