Warnings: None, yet.

Once again, it was time to let the darker side of the moon show its face to the world. This time, however, the prospects looked far more intriguing - this particular subject was closer to what he might call a worthy opponent. A hero, even a trapped one, should be far less naïve than the last subject.

Yes, this would be well worth the time. A hero caged was hardly something one saw everyday, after all. Perhaps he could even manage to enjoy this, or as much as he was able to.

It wasn't as if Link intended to give him that chance, however. With a yell that would have done a goron proud, he rushed Saix, fully intending at the least to disarm him and hoping to steal away his weapon. Given the way that he had summoned it to start with, he doubtless had others; this was simply in hopes that he could somehow even out this extremely lopsided playing field.

His opening maneuver was a body check, aimed at Saix's midriff. He doubted it would work, but still, it was the thought that counted. Right?

The maneuver might have worked, had Saïx not been expecting something of the sort - sidestepping Link's charge, although just barely.

He struck out with the hilt of sword as Link passed, the blow intended to strike him from behind. It was of course most likely not going to have much effect what with that damnable spell, but perhaps it would wear off before the blow hit home. And if it didn't, well, it wasn't like it would do much harm to his sword. Hopefully.
