The group was confused, but reluctantly took the bottles and drunk. They were surprised to find it creamy and satisfying, making their whole bodies feel warm and strong. Meilin was trying to sneak some of Tomoyo's, who giggled and starting playing keep-away with her remaining potion before gulping it down. After a minute, however, Sakura noticed that one person still hadn't even touched a bottle.
"Yue-san, why won't you drink the potion Link-san made?"
Yue sighed. "I don't drink, or eat, Sakura-san. Of all people, you should know that, considering my disgusting false form does it all for me."
Sakura turned beet-red. "Yue-san!" she cried, indignant. "Don't talk about Yukito-san like that!"
"You're really one and the same person as Tsukishiro-san, Yue," Syaoran prompted, "so if you insult Tsukishiro-san, you insult yourself."
Yue turned up his nose. "We are two separate people. I am nothing like Yukito."
Sakura frowned. "That's not true, Yue-san. You and Yukito-san are exactly alike."
"How?" demanded Yue, not sounding pleased in the least. "In what way could you even begin to compare me to an idiot like Yukito?"
"In every way," said Sakura sweetly. "Now drink."

HYRULE FIELD
WHACK! The megaton hammer fell on Volvagia's head for the final time. The dragon roared in defiance before finally fading away into the shadow magic from which it was created. From here on out, the battle would be much easier.
FLOOR EIGHT
The door to the room where Ganondorf and Majora waited was huge. Link could sense the huge evil presence emanating from the door and shuddered. He took a deep breath.
He opened the door.

Yue eventually gulped down the potion, coughing and spluttering as it entered him, but swallowing nonetheless. As they approached the eighth floor, every member of the gang seemed to notice a serious, foreboding air about it. This was it. This was the moment they'd all been waiting for. This was the great evil they had to fight.
This was the final battle.
Sakura was scared, but Syaoran's look of determination gave her courage. Tomoyo had her camera on the best-quality setting available. Meilin stabbed her sword at the air for practice. Yue's facade never changed, but one could sense a knowledge of what was to come behind his placid eyes.
This was it.

Link led the way into the room. Inside was a huge throne room that had been redecorated to Ganondorf's liking. Sitting in the throne was the evil king himself, and standing next to him was Majora. "Hello again Link." Ganon's voice was deep and menacing. "I'm so glad you could join us. You remember Majora, don't you? He's been waiting to see you." The dark king stood up to his full hight, taller than a normal Hylian. He pulled out a huge two handed sword, wielding it in one hand, and pointed it at Link. "You sealed me in the sacred realm, but I managed to escape. AND NOW YOU WILL PAY!" Ganondorf sprang forwards intending to slice Link in half. The Master Sword met the huge blade with a resounding clang. Ganon sprang back.
"So, you've been practicing." Said Link dryly.
Ganon roared and charged again, this time Majora charged alongside him. Link leaped out of the way and rolled just in time to evade a Magical blast from Majora.
The fight was on.

Sakura gasped. "Link-san!" The way he used a sword was exceptional. She'd never seen anyone--not Syaoran, not Meilin, not even Rika when she had been possessed by the Sword Card--wield a weapon like that. It made her truly realize for the first time that she was a little 11-year-old-girl and Link was fighting full-grown men with a world of magical experience behind them. There was no way Sakura could win this.
At least not alone.
"Card made by Clow, lend your powers to my key!" cried Sakura, swinging the head of her staff down onto the Card in question with fury. "FIREY!"

Link leaped backwards so as to not get burned. Ganon looked at him, slightly puzzled.
"What do you think you're doing?"
Link pointed past Ganon's shoulder.
"What-" Ganon turned around just in time to get a face full of fire. For a split second, nothing happened. Then Ganon brushed away the flame like a feather. "Foolish girl. I am Ganondorf, bearer of the Triforce of Power. Did you really think mere flames could stop- UNGHH" Ganon grunted as the light arrow from Link's bow hit it's mark. Again, the evil king shook off the attack. "That won't work this time hero. Ganon spat the last word. Nothing but the blade in your hand can stop me, and since I will destroy you before you get the chance to land a single blow with said blade, it is irrelevant.
"Your overconfidence is your weakness." Link's voice was firm and determined.
"Your faith in your friends is yours." Said Ganon menacingly as he whirled around and brought his sword down towards Link.

"LINK-SAN!" Sakura started and barely managed to catch the Firey as it fluttered into her hand in Card Form. But... Firey was one of the four element Cards! Nothing could beat them! How could Ganondorf brush it away so easily? Sakura looked to Syaoran, who was watching the battle with wide eyes. He knew there was nothing he could do to help, and so stayed out of the way of the battle. Tomoyo was filming fervently, and Meilin was clinging to her arm in fear, a fact neither of them really noticed. Yue hovered behind the group, sighing obnoxiously when Link made even the slightest mistake.
Sakura's eyes teared up. If Firey wouldn't work, then she supposed that the rest of the Cards wouldn't either. Were they really expected to just watch and do nothing?! Link's plan hadn't gone this far into the battle. What was she supposed to do now?

Link managed to backflip out of the way, but it was a very close call. Zelda and Malon were facing off against Majora and it seemed that the battle could go either way. Ganon charged again and Link dodged much more quickly this time. Link jumped into the air and brought his sword down to meet Ganon's. They began a deadly dance, swords clanging, neither one landing any blows. Majora was starting to gain the upper hand on Malon and Zelda.
This was getting out of hand.

"No," Sakura whispered, starting to cry despite herself. Why was she such a crybaby all the time? Why couldn't she ever do anything to help?! "L-L-Link-san! They'll hurt Link-san! They'll k-kill him!"
"Sakura!" Syaoran put an arm around her. "Link has experience with this sort of thing. He'll be fine." It was a mark of the seriousness of the situation how Syaoran called him by name for the first time. "But even if he is in danger, crying won't help."
Sakura wiped her arm on her sleeve as her sniffles slowly subsided. "It's just..." She struggled to explain her attachment for the tourguide. "Link-san was the one who first showed me that I love you, Syaoran. Thank you." She clenched the Star Key a newly-made fist. Link had helped her out so much since she'd come to Hyrule. She had to do something to help him now! But what?

Ganon leaped into the air and shot a ball of magic towards Link.
"Time to step it up a notch. DIN'S FIRE!" A beam of flame tore through the ball of energy and hit Ganon squarely in the chest, doing no damage but sending him flying across the room. Link sprang forwards and pulled out a bomb. "Hold this. Thanks." Link thrut the bomb into Ganon's hands and sprang back as the explosion engulfed him.
"You are only delaying the inevitable hero." Ganon started to laugh. "Majora!" Majora formed into it's mask form. "Let's show them the true meaning of power."
"NO!" Link knew what was going to happen next.
Ganon put on the mask. Instead of being controlled by Majora however, Ganon absorbed it's power.
"BEHOLD! I AM NOW THE MOST POWERFUL BEING IN THE UNIVERSE! HAHAHAHAHA!"
"I don't think so Ganon." Link sprang forwards at the same time as Malon. The lovers delivered a double strike to Ganon's Sword, breaking it in two.
"NO MATTER, MY MAGICAL ABILITIES ARE MORE THAN ENOUGH TO KILL YOU ALL!" Two blades of dark energy appeared in Ganon's hands.
Suddenly, numerous duplicates of the evil king appeared, surrounding Link.
"I remember how this works." murmured Link as he pulled out his bow. He fired an arrow at each copy until one met real armor and fell to the floor. (he can fire arrows fast) He slashed at the real Ganon, and the sword fight began once more.

Suddenly, when Sakura thought all hope was lost, a rapid stream of sharp crystals whizzed past her face, making her hair rustle in the slight breeze they created. "Hoeee?"
Yue had struck. He flew forward with inhuman speed and precision, spiraling crystals at Ganon just as he had during the Final Judgement. The others looked after him in awe.
"I am one of the guardians that Clow Reed created," Yue muttered. "And that means I do not let harm come to my master!"

Link breathed a quick sigh of relief, they finally had some backup. He leaped into the air, summoned the Megaton hammer back into his hand, and slammed it down directly on Ganon's head. The shock wave shattered the evil king's armor, rendering him more vulnerable, but faster on his feet. Malon and Zelda attacked next, slashing at Ganon and throwing Shekiah needles at him respectively. Their attacks had little effect, since Ganon was only vulnerable to the Master Sword. Suddenly, Ganon picked up Link and tossed him into the center of the room. Ganon himself leaped to a spot about ten feet away from the hero. A magical barrier formed, enclosing the two in an arena.
"IT'S JUST YOU AND ME NOW HERO."
"Why so it is."
They both dashed forwards.

Yue sighed deeply. "I tried my hardest. At least now the new master is no longer in harm's way."
"How can you say that, Yue-san?!" Sakura cried, hysterical now. She ran forward and slammed her fists against the sides of the barrier, again and again but she could make no headway. "Link-san! Link-san! LINK-SAN!"
Yue was taken aback by her forcefulness when it came to someone she cared about. Was there anyone that he cared about as much as she cared about the ones she loved? Yue doubted there was anyone he cared for as much as Sakura loved her mere acquaintances. Sure, Yukito had feelings for Toya, but Yue didn't in the least feel the same way. There was only one person he had ever really loved, and that was...
...Clow, his old master.
But Clow was dead, and Yue had a new master now.
Yue slowly stepped forward until he was standing next to Sakura. She stopped pounding for a moment only to look him in the eyes. Yue softened. "Sakura-san," he said quietly, "this is Link's battle. I'm sure he'll be all right."
Sakura smiled. "Thank you... Yue-san. I know he will."

The duel seemed to be moving in slow motion. Link was aware of his friends and loved ones trying to break the barrier, but he was also aware of Ganon's every move. Swords clashed, magical blasts resonated, and arrows and bombs were depleted. Anything could happen.

Sakura was still scared out of her mind for Link's safety, but now she watched as a spectator instead of bursting to interfere. Yue stood by her side, and soon Syaoran came over to hold her hand. Tomoyo moved in closer to film, and Meilin, attached to her arm like glue, moved with her. No one could breathe. Who would win?
