Characters: AU!Ganon and YOU
Setting: just outside his room (1-16)
Format: Action. My brain for prose is gone today. 8(
Summary: Ganon realizes he's not where he expected! ....And is not amused...
Warnings: Stubborn, hard-headed hero version of Ganondorf. Brain breakage might be ahead!

*Be careful walking down the first dormitory floor's hallway. You'll probably risk being hit by a suddenly-opened door when a red-headed boy that can't be older than seventeen storms out. Destroyed? Yeah right. That's a lie. And Ganon has a good idea of who wrote that note, too. He's still buckling on the chest strap that holds on his very familiar looking sword.

The same sword that's usually only held by the various Links in the tower.

Ganon wraps the...scarf?...that he uses to shield the desert sun from his face around his neck, hiding his collar, and turns to start looking for a way out. Or the person responsible for this badly planned trick. He's certainly not going to be stuck in this tower. Not if he can help it.*

*...All right, who's calling him...

......

And then Ganon forgets all about such an odd, casual nickname, because what in the world is that on his head.*

.....what's wrong with your eyes?

Nothing's wrong with my e-- oh.

[Wow, stupid. Beat smirks and lifts the goggles off of his face, letting them hang around his neck. He does have normal eyes, honest.]

See? Nothing wrong. They're just goggles, to, uh... [He looks Ganon up and down.] ...protect my eyes. From wind and shit.

[It's not a total lie. You would not believe the things that come in contact with your face when you're skating at way too many miles an hour.]

*oh. Well. He's secretly relieved it wasn't as bad as he thought.*

I wouldn't mind something like that myself.

*with a few hundred extra pairs. For everyone.*

What kind of place is this? I found the note. *his fist clenches, and his anger flares again.* It can't all be gone, just like that...

Yeah, they're handy.

[Ganon gets a funny look for the anger spot, but no more than that.]

...We don't know. It may not be, and the guys running this place are trying to pull one over on us.

That's probably what happened, actually, knowing them.

A tall man wearing all green named Link wouldn't happen to be part of that, would he?

Link...

[Beat tilts his head.]

No, but there was a dude in green named Link traipsing around with a collar on like everybody else. I only met him the once, though.

*yep, that's all he needs to hear. Be right back, he needs to go confront someone. He's already taking off again.*

[...Um.]

Hey! Where are you going?

[And he's just going to follow Ganon -- and pretty fast, too, considering that he's wearing rollerblades at the moment.]

*and Ganon just keeps walking.*

That man... He's the one turning Hyrule into a twisted, evil forest. I can't let him go. Even if Hyrule being destroyed is a lie, he's responsible for causing so much death and hardship.

Seriously?

[And now that he's caught up, Beat is just going go move back into a walking speed. That story actually hits pretty close to home, since even if his villain wasn't working on the basis of 'twisted, evil forest', it was still doing a great job of ruining a lot of people's lives. When you're in danger of losing your turf, you fight back for it.]

[His tone is bitter.]

...What a great guy.

*Just as sarcastic:* The greatest.

*he glances at the stranger out of the corner of his eye.* My name is Ganon.

Mine's Beat.

[Ganon... where had he heard that name before?]

[Ah well, probably not important.]

Welcome to Fort Clusterfuck.

*Ganon gives him an odd look at the unfamiliar swear.* "Clusterfuck"?

[Oh, right, this guy is from Ancient Egypt or something.] A big stupid mess where no one can get their facts straight or succeed at doing anything and everything just ends up as a giant... wreck.

*except his nose and eyes don't look quite human...*

Oh. *Good a name as any, he supposes.* I'm used to dealing with "clusterfucks", then.

*boy, is he ever...*

Good, you'll feel right at home.

[And Beat punches him lightly in the arm.]

*What. Why would you hit him? ...Well. Nabooru's done the same on more than one occasion. But from a stranger...? This place is strange.*

...Come on. I want to find a way out of here.

You gonna try for an exit door? [Beat raises his eyebrows, but doesn't leave Ganon's side.] Alright, think I'll tag along for that, if you don't mind. [He clearly doesn't really care if Ganon minds or not.]

Heh. I don't mind. It's the first time someone's offered to help.

For real? There's a bunch of goody-two-shoes in this tower, I'm surprised you haven't been tripping over all the kids wanting to help.
