The now revived citizens of Hyrule came together to repair the castle town. Beat was made to rest and recover from his little breakdown. Finn had decided to help repair the town with everyone else. Link had left to play the Requiem of Reincarnation across Hyrule, bringing back those who were transformed somehow. Richard stayed to watch over Beat, and Lukas wandered town helping wherever it was needed. Things were set on a track to recovery.
Jacob yawned as he watched the screen reveal Beat. He viewed the action that brought Grinsley back from the brink.
"My king will not be happy." sighed Jacob, turning to vanish in smoke.
As he left a man crept inside. He was clearly q great warrior, for he carried a great bow. He thought it would never compare to his main bow, but it was in a good place. With his son, Finn.
"Alright what do you have planned Drake?"
Finn walked through town carrying timbers to a building under reconstruction. He set the boards down and wiped the sweat from his brow. "I didn't think it'd be this hard." he sighed.
"I know someone who can help." whispered a voice in his ear.
Finn quickly punched the source of the voice, unknowingly hitting his friend Lukas.
"Ah, you ass! That hurt." shouted Lukas.
"You shouldn't have snuck up on me." replied Finn casually.
Beat slept peacefully over the night. Richard sat close by, waiting for his friend to recover. Richard had traveled with Beat for some time, but he never saw him act like this.
"Something's up, and I'm going to find out." whispered Richard.
Lukas helped carry boards with Finn to help rebuild the town. Many of the newly revived guards worked on the outer city wall, and gate.
Finn grew restless wanting to do something else besides build. He just couldn't figure out what.
Beat woke up, and tried to leave his bed. He was pushed back into bed by Richard. He felt exhausted, but he needed something to eat.
"Can't I at least walk around the room?"
"Nope, Finn said you need rest. So stay here." ordered Richard.
"But I'm starving!" moaned Beat.
"I'll get you some fruit." muttered Richard.
Lukas stared at Death Mountain, and shuddered. He stared at the dragons circling the mountain top. "I wish I could help." he sighed.
"We can, remember how quickly we could to Kakariko? We only need to climb the mountain." laughed Finn. "Let's ditch this work."
"I don't know." said Lukas nervously.
"Go ahead. You've done enough." assured a Kokiri boy.
"Thanks, Archer was it?" laughed Finn.
"Yeah, that's me. Go do what you need to do." ordered the boy.
"Thanks. Let's go Finn." urged Lukas.
"Geez, this town is trashed!" gasped Finn as he entered the ruins of Kakariko.
"Yikes." muttered Lukas. "This is gruesome."
"Oh it's fine. I managed to live here." laughed an old man. "I'm Jackson Fright."
"Hello there, I'm Finn, and this is Lukas greeted Finn.
"Ah, you're the young man who brought back the Sage's Army. I must say that was impressive." said the man with a smile.
"Ah, it was nothing." blushed Finn.
"Oh but it was. I'm a very prideful man, but it makes me happy to say you did a great job."
"Oh, don't worry, I'm fine. I didn't help at all." growled Lukas.
"Ah, young Lukas, you have done quite remarkable feats. Such as saving the young Gwen, or the Prince Zachari." cackled the man.
Lukas tensed up. He had a bad feeling. This guy had a murderous essence lurking around him. The man seemed familiar, too familiar.
"How did you know about that? I didn't really explain things about Aeorobis."
The man growled, and tensed up. He then smiled and straightened his back. He pulled his hair back to reveal fiery red hair and a grim smile.
"You're Jacob! You caused the deaths of those Groundies!" growled Lukas.
"Oh, dear. My past has come back to haunt me. I'm so terrified. Please make my death swift and painless." yawned Jacob.
Finn drew his sword Lightbringer, and took a fighting stance. Lukas drew the gun he brought.
"You won't play your mind games with us." spat Lukas.
"Oh really? Then how about I play this?" laughed Jacob ripping through the air with his yellow energy. Suddenly five skeletons jumped through the rift. "Bone Soldiers, tear them apart."
"With pleasure my lord." cackled the head skeleton.
"Please, those things can't stop us." laughed Finn. He slashed his sword releasing a blinding flash of light.
Jacob and his soldiers all shouted as they tried to regain their sight. Lukas took the confusion as an advantage. He shot at the Bone Soldiers, taking down the three lead soldiers. Finn used the light from his sword as a whip, and snapped the neck of the one on the right. He then sent the whip straight through the head of the final soldier.
Jacob stood alone as the light cleared. He was surrounded by bones, and had a gun focused at his head. "Oh wonderful, back where we started." growled the redheaded teen.
"Huh, this is boring." yawned Beat. He played a short tune on his violin, and then grew tired of it. He got out of bed and headed towards the door. "Wait, they'll expect me to do that. To the window!"
"Yeah, no." laughed Romero appearing at the window. "Back to bed."
"Damn it." muttered Beat, climbing into the bed. Then he smiled, a great idea blossoming in his mind
"Alright let's see, we've repeated that little stunt three times, can I please kill you two now?" sighed Jacob. "You'll have to run out of bullets sometime."
"Oh get over it. We will kill you soon." laughed Finn.
"I won't kill him, I'm out of ammo." whispered Lukas.
"Perfect, now it's time to end this." grinned Jacob.
"I couldn't agree more." growled Finn. He sheathed Lightbringer, and drew his Mad Bow.
"Oh please, you have no arrows." scoffed Jacob.
"I just need focus to use this." stated Finn, before releasing an energy bolt from the bow, sending Jacob flying.
"Nice shot. I think he flew into the windmill." laughed Lukas.
"Alright, let's kill those dragons!" announced Finn running off.
"Can I have an apple?" asked Beat looking to his new guard, Nabooru.
"Sure, catch it." sighed Nabooru tossing him the red apple.
"Thanks. You know, I want to help rid Death Mountain of those dragons. I mean they are all the same as Volvagia, right?"
"No telling Grimsley. No telling." sighed the Gerudo.
"Bullcrap! I am not going up there." shouted Finn.
"Come on Finn, don't be a bitch." taunted Lukas climbing up the mountainside.
"Don't call me a bitch, Bitch!" roared Finn running up the path.
They reached the top and found the path to the crater blocked by boulders.
"Well we tried." shrugged Finn turning back.
"I don't think so, we're headed for the Goron City. They had a secret passage leading to the crater."
"Right let's go, back down the mountain. Or we could shoot at them from here."
"Come on Finn, we both know you're not that good a marksmen." chided Lukas.
"I could get you up there." laughed a masked man, who wore nothing but black. His mask was red with a wicked grin painted onto it. "Call me Red Spirit, I'm rather close to your friend Beat."
"How are you gonna help us?" asked Finn.
"With these Goron Tunics, they cancel out heat of the volcano. You can trust me, I'm wearing one also." laughed the masked man, pulling back his cloak to reveal his tunic. "I would suggest scaling the side instead of climbing up from the inside. We'd be easy picking for any nestlings inside. Our main target will be the King Dragon, which will be the biggest one there." explained Red Spirit.
"Aw jeez, this is just what I needed." sighed Finn.
"Suck it up, let's get climbing." urged Lukas scaling the mountain.
"But it... Ah screw it." muttered Finn following Lukas.
"Hmm, they seem off." yawned Spirit under his mask. "Beat should have warned me better."
