Where the Bad Guys Always Win

Breath of the Darkness

Deep inside Hyrule Castle, Princess Zelda remained in stasis, her vast power the last thing keeping Hyrule from suffering disaster. A century ago, the blight known as Calamity Ganon surfaced and ravaged Hyrule, decimating the countryside and massacring its people. Zelda and her Champion, Link, attempted to fight off the great evil, but Link was heavily injured in the assault. He was placed in a cryostasis chamber in order to heal while Zelda herself used the powers of the Goddess Hylia to seal Calamity Ganon inside Hyrule Castle and away from the rest of Hyrule. 

But even a Goddess has her limit, and a century later, Zelda's seal was weakening. Ganon's power was seeping out from the castle, infecting the land around it. Thankfully, the still conscious Zelda sensed that Link had finally awoken and telepathically called out to him. Unfortunately, he suffered from amnesia, so he was far from ready to take on this evil and save Zelda. He would have to go around Hyrule and free the Champions' spirits from the Divine Beasts and awaken the Master Sword. Zelda pressured Link to hurry, as her power was waning fast, but though Link grew a great deal during his travels, Princess Zelda couldn't help but be annoyed when he stopped to do unimportant things like Shield Surfing. Link could be such an idiot sometimes.

Wait, where did that come from? Zelda's mind raced, as she had never thought anything bad of her Champion, ever. After all, he was doing his best. Zelda suddenly heard a voice laugh inside her mind, telling her the boy was hopeless and would rather screw around than accomplish his mission. Zelda mentally demanded to know who this voice was and saw an image in her mind: herself! Only, this vision of herself was clad in darkness and had red eyes. She then realized this was a trick by Calamity Ganon to try and get free and tried to ignore the evil doppelganger. However, the evil Zelda continued to taunt the princess, saying that her power would soon disappear and nothing would stop Hyrule from falling to Ganon. 

Annoyed, Princess Zelda tried to put up a mental shield to block out the villainous spirit, but her power wasn't enough to do so. The evil Zelda destroyed the barrier easily, Zelda's spirit then tried to attack with a focused beam of light, but it dissipated in the darkness. Her power had drained more than she thought. Zelda began to worry a bit, her mental self becoming unnerved by the evil clone's confidence in her victory. If Calamity Ganon had enough power to affect her mind like this, his power was closer to breaking free than Zelda thought. She tried to reach out to Link to urge him to hurry, but Ganon blocked her mind link, isolating her from the outside world. 

Things got worse as Zelda found that her spirit's clothes suddenly disappeared, leaving her buck naked. The evil Zelda was also naked and gloated about how such a beautiful woman was wasting her life on the side of light. Around her, dark, purple miasma began flooding the mindscape, surrounding the two and making Zelda panic. She tried to push back the darkness, but several tentacles shot out and quite easily restrained the young woman inside her mind. Pulling her arms and legs in a spread eagle position, Zelda blushed in shame as she was in an especially vulnerable position that she was unable to escape from. More tentacles sprouted from the darkness and began to caress her body, its cold touch chilled her mental spirit to its core. 

Floating down to her victim, the evil Zelda grabbed her counterpart's breasts and began to softly knead them, taunting her by telling her how much the darkness can make her feel good, that it would be better to give in to the inevitable. Zelda twisted her head away from the woman, ashamed to admit that her clone was expertly manipulating her breasts, causing the girl to involuntarily get aroused. The evil Zelda delighted in her toy's whimpers, laughing at how easy it was to ebb her power little by little. She then reached down and began to finger the princess' pussy, rubbing her clit for a short while before inserting a few fingers between her folds. Zelda's eyes went wide as the fingers invaded her most private place, quickly making her pussy gush. Her protests soon disappeared, replaced by pants of arousal as she tried her best to push these feelings out of her body... but failing more by the second.

Smiling, the evil Zelda floated in even closer and began to lick the helpless princess' cheek, savoring the taste before moving down to her shoulders and neck. By this point, Zelda had stopped trying to escape and was putting all her power into her mental defenses, trying her best to stave off Calamity Ganon's power until Link arrived, but this evil spirit knew all of her sensitive spots. Her iron will was starting to crumble. She felt goosebumps as the dark spirit went further down, flicking Zelda's nipples with her tongue, then kissing and licking her stomach before finally moving down to her pussy. Softly caressing the woman's thighs, Dark Zelda slowly began to lick the folds, savoring the taste of her nectar before diving in. Her tongue snaked its way into the pussy, the spirit extending the organ as far as it needed to go since she wasn't a real object. Hearing the whimpers and pants of her victim excited the dark spirit as she began licking the soft pussy. 

Princess Zelda knew what the spirit was trying to do. She could sense her mindscape becoming more and more overcome by darkness and her mental defenses weakening. However, try as she might, there was nothing she could do to stop it, which she was quickly realizing. Knowing deep down she wouldn't last much longer, Zelda helplessly panted as the tongue working her pussy made her even more aroused. She desperately pleaded that Link would appear soon and save her from Calamity Ganon's corruption, though she knew full well he was miles away. The reincarnation of Hylia couldn't help but moan as her spirit grew hotter and hotter from the tongue in her spiritual pussy. Her resistance was crumbling before her eyes and soon enough, she came, letting out a loud moan as her spirit body convulsed in pleasure. 

Pleased at her work, the evil Zelda withdrew, leaving the panting victim an utter mess. To finish her off, several tentacles emerged from the growing darkness around them. Two were formed into suction cups and were placed over her breasts, while two more snaked their way into her pussy and asshole. Instantly, Zelda felt the pleasurable sensations bubble their way back up, in greater force than ever before. Despite never having sex beforehand, the penetration didn't hurt. In fact, it felt right. The tentacle cups sucking on her breasts felt wonderful. The captive princess knew she had to fight back, to resist more, to hold off Calamity Ganon until Link got there, but her will to fight back was quickly eroding away. The tentacles pumping at her holes left her moaning in pleasure as she could feel her inner light fading away by the second.

Amused at how easily Zelda's corruption had been, the evil Zelda once again floated towards her victim and cupped her face, staring into her eyes. They were becoming glassy and weak, not helped by Zelda having another orgasm. To finish the job, the evil Zelda leaned in and kissed the light spirit deeply. What little mental defenses Zelda had left evaporated as she felt the darkness enter through her mouth, filling her body. She closed her eyes and let the evil spirit explore her mouth. As the kiss continued, the tentacles began to retract back into the darkness, until Zelda hung there limply, being supported solely by Dark Zelda holding her head and kissing her. Though her arms and legs were free, Zelda made no move to struggle or get away. Ending the kiss soon after, Dark Zelda looked at her pathetic victim, her mind almost completely overtaken, and a confident grin grew upon her face. Her eyes glowed red as her voice was replaced by Calamity Ganon's, telling her that she lost. She then let go of Zelda, and the helpless girl floated down, falling into the miasma. As the darkness began to consume her body, the unresisting girl merely stared at her dark self, with Ganon's face looming huge behind her, a final reminder of what Zelda's failure meant. 

A single tear fell down her cheek as her mind was fully consumed by darkness.

Many days later, Link had finally managed to force his way into Hyrule Castle. With the Master Sword and the powers of the Champions with him, he felt confident that he was going to defeat Calamity Ganon once and for all and save Zelda from her fate. As he entered the main throne room, however, he sensed that the seal over the castle was gone. All around him was darkness and evil. Suddenly, he heard a woman laughing. Looking around, Link wondered where it was coming from, eventually looking up. His eyes bulged as he gasped upon the sight he saw.

Princess Zelda was floating down, naked save for intricate thigh-high boots and arm coverings, with a black cape billowing behind her. Her eyes lacked the soft, kind look from his memories, instead showing a cruelness he didn't think possible. Around her was a purple/red aura that chilled him to his bones. As the giggling Zelda touched down on the ground, she welcomed Link, her voice echoing through the halls. The young warrior realized he was too late: Calamity Ganon had been successful in taking over Zelda. Link pulled out the Master Sword, but Zelda merely shot out her aura, knocking the sword from his hands. Before Link could finish reacting to the move, Zelda suddenly appeared before him. Waving her hand by his head, Link felt a mighty power wash over him, forcing him to his knees. The scope of the corrupted Zelda's power was becoming clear to him, and his face showed pure terror for the first time.

Calamity Ganon smiled as he saw the realization on Link's face that he had already won.

There was nothing left of the original pure-hearted reincarnation of the Goddess Hylia.

Only the corrupted Empress Zelda remained, and would do so for the rest of time.
