Invisible String | Ghirahim x Reader x Link

Another World

"Ah sister, come to see the show?" A husky voice rasped.

I tried to move but found my wrists were bound by golden chains. The chains held my arms above my head and they seemed like their source went on and on.I attempted to fight the restraints, but I couldn't move even an inch.

I stared up to the sky.

This was the same place in my dreams.

"Brother, show yourself."

Demise walked into my field of view with a massive smirk on his face.

"Aww look at my poor sister," he sneered. "She thinks she's in a position to give me demands in the hellscape she banished me to."

"Cut the act, Demise." I snapped.

I attempted to use my powers, but nothing happened.

"Did you really think that'd work? We're in my realm now. And until either of us loses we're trapped here together." Demise laughed.

He snapped his fingers and a mirror appeared before me showing how Link was fairing. He was fighting the ancient automaton Koloktos which Ghirahim had unleased on him.

"Link will send you right back in your seals no matter how many times it takes." I said defiantly.

"Oh, I have no doubt, but sister, your powers are back. Are they not?"

"Some of them are." I answer hoping I was wrong about the next thing that would come from his mouth.

"Well, the wonders of being your brother—and there are very few—is my powers will return as yours do. Your hero will slip up one of these days and that brainless beast on the Surface will become me and I will ravage the land you so desperately love."

"Link will get the Triforce and end your path of destruction." I retort watching the mirror as Link delivers the final strike.

Demise laughed scratching my face with one of his talons drawing blood.

"That's the funny thing about all this. You've shown your cards, while mine, dearest sister, I have a couple wildcards up my sleeve." He said as the area around us began dissolving. "And I know how to call your bluff."

In an instance, Demise and the clear blue skies were gone.

Now, I stood alone as the skies were filled with a dark mist. The tranquil feeling was all but gone from this place, and the chains holding my wrists above my head started glowing.

I tugged at them a little, but it did nothing.

"Demise get back here!" I screamed hearing my voice echo.

The air turned cold when several mirrors, much like the one Demise had me stare into, appeared before me. Each mirror bore an intricate design; some were just a simple oval, others were shaped like a shield with thick gold lining the edges, one was cracked, one was tiny, and one had thorns lining it.

I gasped as the chains disappeared and I fell to my knees into the swallow water. Surprisingly, my dress didn't get the slightest bit wet.

After I pulled myself to my feet, I walked to the mirror closest to me.

It was a small one. Its oval surface was cracked like someone had dropped it from a great height or smashed it in rage.

At the very top was a distorted version of Hylia's crest and running down the small mirror's sides were metal vines.

The strange thing about this was that as I looked into the mirror, I saw no reflection. There was nothing when I looked into the cracked surface.
