CHAPTER 7

Colin returned to the abandoned store, and rejoined with the group. "Did you kill him?" asked Psi. "He did," responded Feravor. They were shocked. Nobody ever saw a talking sword before. Zelda understood what happened. "What were his last words, Colin?" Colin tried to speak, but Feravor whispered, "Don't, or else." Colin whispered back, "What could possibly happen?" "They," said Feravor addressing the other members, "will gut you alive." Colin looked at three people."Their names are Xi, Mu, and Nu, and they are deadly." To Colin, they looked like three people looking for a meal out of an ordinary human. Zelda said, "I see. I think I know what he said. But, did you find an object at the scene?" Colin immediately whipped out the amulet and placed it on the table for all to see. "What is THAT!?" asked Sigma. Even Zelda looked at it in horror. Silence filled the room until Feravor said, "That is our worst fear, Sigma. That is the Moon of Termina."

"You need to relax, Link," said the doctor. Link just couldn't relax. "Hyrule Castle was attacked, Ordon Village was attacked, and now the Town is in cinders. It is just as the nightmare predicted. Ganondorf is resurrecting himself, and the only one who can stop him is me." Link was angry at himself. He didn't that the Triforce left him for Colin, until he looked at the back of his hand. "WHAT?" he declared, "The Triforce of Courage left me!?" Then he remembered the fall. As its final act, the Triforce used it's last bit of strength to save me from dying. He lay down, face buried in the pillow. She came around to relieve him of the pain. But he felt as if he was losing his life.

"ARE YOU SERIOUS?" shouted Omicron. Rho began to weep. Someone kept his head down and cried, "W-we're all g-going t-to d-d-d-die!" Arguments broke out. Some began to weep. "Quiet!" shouted Zelda. Nobody heard her. She shouted at the top of her lungs, "SILENCE!" but to no avail. Feravor spoke up. "IF YOU SAY THAT YOU'RE GOING TO DIE…" At this point, everyone fell silent in the room. Feravor continued in her normal voice, "...then why is Colin here?" The crying man responded with, "Because he has the Triforce of Courage?" "Exactly,...What is your name?"

"Omega, Ma'am."

"Exactly, Omega. Exactly!"

Xi piped up with, "But he isn't a member!" Then she addressed Zelda. "You said this was a secret group. YOU said, 'No outsiders allowed!'"

Zelda looked at Colin and said, "Do you swear to keep this organization a secret from the people of Hyrule?"

Colin turned to look at her and said, "I swear."

"Do you plan to make Hyrule a better place than when you entered?"

"I swear."

"Do you plan to work against the forces of evil?"

"I swear." He bowed before the Queen.

"Colin, son of Rusl," said Zelda, "Rise…"

Everyone was nervous. Xi thought, Another Ordonian. Figures. Zelda managed to continue. "...as Delta of the Queen's Personal Guard.

The Shadow Prince saw it all happen. He was in the QPG's meeting room with the entire staff. Colin has now been inducted!? I must accelerate my plan. He communicated telepathically, Bulbins! Raid the dungeons! I'll finish off Link AND Zelda tonight!
