Midna nodded and stood up. "I can walk. It just hurts a little." She started towards the castle. "Coming?"

Tenebre nodded to Ganondorf.
"I believe that can happen. Shall we discuss our motives as well?"
He pulled his sword out of the ground, not caring if the being got away. The destruction only caused more panic. Win-win.

"Yes, let's go." Zelda said. "Link and I can help you if need be."
"Of course." Ganon replied. "We're off, then." He concentrated a bit before, whoosh! The two were out of the now-destroyed Kakariko Village and were planted at the gates of his castle. "Come, follow me."
He led his new ally down a dark corridor, up a winding staircase, and across a bridge overlooking his desolate empire. They entered a circular room, with a large mahogany table. To the right was a large, glass dome, where he was capable of seeing whatever was going on in whatever land he wished to see. "Welcome to my domain." He said. "It's smaller than what I want, but in time I shall be gaining a great bit of land." The Kingdom of Hyrule was the first thing that crossed Ganon's greedy mind.

"Lovely." Vaati smirked and waved his hands in the air. Instantly, he was dressed in fancy black suit and a strange person dressed in black robes appeared. "We're going to be wedded now."

Tenebre sighed, because if he read Ganondorf's face right, they weren't about to cause the destruction of their surroundings. But he liked that most, it varied from points of destruction. It caused more terror, created fires, and possibly ended lives.
"I'm guessing you have our next location?"
Link nodded, his eyes focused and fiery.
"Let's get moving. C'mon Zelda."
He grabbed her hand and tugged her along.

"Princess Zelda!" A guard yelled as he approached the castle. He ran up to her, and stopped several feet from her. "This girl was found crawling around some debris, she's blind." He explained as he showed the girl to her.
The girl was still awake, even after blinded by some falling debris, and jerked around from all the running the guard had done. She had calmed down just enough to be able to speak. "... Where's my mother?.. And father?..." She murmured. The guard didn't even have the sense to wrapped the poor girl's mangled eyes in bandages.

Ganon folded his arms and walked to the clear glass ball, staring at it for around ten seconds before an image began materializing in it. As more details came into view, it showed castle town, and the villagers mourning the loss of their homes. "Unfortunately, for now we wait. Midna has harmed me a little more than I'd expected. Our plans to destroy and conquer are slightly hindered, but nonetheless will be carried out in the future." He winced a little from the pain in his back. "I'm going to rest a bit, do you have any injuries that need to be taken care of?"
Zelda was slightly shocked at Link taking her hand, but nonetheless she walked on, looking one last time at the rubble that once was Castle Town before turning her head back to their destination. She knew that this wouldn't be the last attack, and she feared the next would be even worse. They then met with the guard carrying the girl.
Zelda approached the guards and gasped in shock from the girl's eyes, bloodied and bruised. "Well don't just carry her around, get her help! We're heading to the medical wing of the castle, all of us." She snapped, then took on a gentler tone for the girl. "We will find your mother and father soon, okay? Right now, the only thing you should worry about is getting better. We're going to take you into Hyrule castle to take care of your eyes."

The girl nodded as she 'looked' in Zelda's direction. Even thought her eyes were gone, you could easily tell that she was crying internally. "... Okay..." The girl murmured before the guard carried her off to the med wing.

Zelda and the gang followed, since their destination, too, was the med wing. As they approached the gates, the doors were quickly opened, and a few more guards came out, swiftly ushering them inside. The massive doors were forced shut even more quickly after that. Word of the destruction had spread like wildfire throughout the castle, causing everyone to panic, especially since the only possible heirs to the throne were out and about during the time.
When they entered the Medical Wing, a chubby nurse with rosy cheeks and bright orange hair approached them. "Goodness! Princess! Link! It's nice to know you're all alright. We have Sarri, and we're currently working on her arm."
"Good. The sooner she is well again the better." Zelda nodded. "I would like you to take care of this girl. She was a resident of the village, blinded by the attacker. Please, is there some way to reverse the damage that has been done?"
The nurse looked at the girl, a sad look on her face. "We'll see what we can do, dearie. Please take her this way." The nurse looked at the guards, pointing to one of the cots towards the back of the massive room. She then looked at Zelda. "Is there anything else you need, princess?"
"No, I'm alright... I am going to the library, now. Link, would you like to accompany me?"

The guard set the girl down on the cot, and quickly returned to his squad. She could hear all the footsteps of the doctors running back, and forth, trying to aid the injured. The girl sat up straight, and turned her head in the direction of Zelda.

Link nodded to Zelda, but didn't like how the girl looked. She was likely to be blind, and her eyes may have actually been ripped out.
Tenebre sighed a very long one.
"I don't actually get hurt, only my armor gets damaged. Anything that actually hits my body just goes through."
He dragged his sword across the floor to Ganon, looking at the injury with disgust.
"Organic bodies are so pathetic. They require so much attention."

"Alright." Zelda led Link up a marble staircase, taking two lefts and a right, until they met with the entrance of the Library. "I'm trying to find books on dreaming, and visions. Maybe it'll explain what we've got."
Off she went, straight to the section on the Hylian mind. They didn't have many books in that category, but she tried them anyway. "Hm..." Her fingers grazed each name lightly as she searched, trying to find something that would jump out at her. The Journey to Knowledge, no.... The Hylian book of... Hylians? What a creative name... She sighed. This could take a while...
"Alright." Ganon ignored the comment on organic bodies. "You're free to roam the castle, just don't destroy anything. There's some training grounds nearby, if you'd like to try it out." He said as he left the room.

Tenebre just grumbled to himself and dragged his sword behind him, creating a few scratches in the floor. He lifted it up and a vase on the floor broke, a few rupees randomly falling out. He just sighed and kept walking.
Standing next to Zelda, Link looked through books as well.
Hmm...What a Hylian thinks in a Day...A translation, Hylian into...female Hylian and back. THAT could be useful. Hmm...

Ganon sat on a cold, flat metal bench as his back was being bandaged by one of his minions. They'll be coming soon, I know it. Link always shows up every time I return. And every time he's banished me from Hyrule... But not this time. I won't let it happen again.
Zelda sat up on the wooden table just in front of the shelf near Link, back propped against the wall of books. She hummed a little tune as she leafed through the pages of A Dreamscape revealed. "While this book doesn't have anything on visions, it's got plenty of information on what we dream and why we do it. Hm. Apparently we have over 15 dreams a night, yet we only remember a couple... That's a little discouraging. We could be missing valuable pieces of information from them. There isn't much we can really do about it, though."

A nurse walked over to the girl and kneeled down beside the cot. "What's your name, sweety?" She asked.
The girl 'looked' at the nurse. "Sunoka." She answered. She could feel several people, with wash clothes, cleaning the blood off her face. Luckily, Sunoka still had eyeballs, but they were far beyond repair.
