The Night before the day
"Goodnight" I whisper. I watch her as she walks away. It pains me so deeply that I don't understand the pure aching of my soul. To just watch her walk away from my presence.... Not looking back. I sigh heavily.
Then I look down at my arm and smile. Her handwriting was slightly messy but glided across my skin. "I will see you tomorrow, Susanna Hughs" I whisper looking back up just able to see her beneath a street lamp. "Whether you're ready for a relationship or not" As I finish speaking she steps away from the reach of the street lamp and disapears into the inky blankness of the nights shadows.
I turn on my heels pushing my hands into my pockets and head back through the park. I walk in the direction of the rented stylish apartment having no need to go back to the pub. Not now after I've met her.
I stretch my limbs painfully as I wake up. The soft pounding in my head luckily isn't too strong from the fact I didn't stay long enough for it too be. I didn't stay long cause of Susanna.... What a beautiful name. It comes from my lips with a gentle flow.
I get to my feet and walk into the bathroom and have a shower. As I step out of the shower, after washing my body and hair quickly with soap and shampoo, I ruffled my midnight black hair grabbing a towel from the rank. I dry down and head back into the bedroom.
Out of my suitcase, lying open on the side dresser, I pull out a pair of slim black jeans and a checkered gray shirt. I pull the jeans on and button the shirt up leaving three buttons undone. I don't mind attracting attention and I'm going for a nice look.
I grab my phone from the side, a ipod touch, and check the time. If I go quickly I can catch Susanna before she heads to breakfast with her friend hopefully. I type in the address for the hotel having memorised it before wiping the ink from my arm with soap.
I smile as I head out picking up a single red tulip on my way there. Hopefully she'll like it.

An afternoon that started full of promise ended in defeat for Forest against local rivals Derby as Forest still wait for their first home League win of the season.With Derby down to ten men and Forest a goal up within the first five minutes, Forest looked set for a win. But Derby were back on level terms just before the half hour mark and grew in confidence as the half progressed.Forest started the second half well, but it went downhill from there and when Derby took the lead they threw everyone back into defence and Forest were unable to find a way through.
It could not have been a more dramatic start to the game when, in the second minute, Matt Derbyshire broke into the box and spotted Ishmael Miller running in. He knocked the ball past the keeper from six yards out and Frank Fielding stood in his way, bringing the Forest striker down.The Derby keeper was immediately shown the red card by the referee and Tomas Cywka had to be substituted before he had even touched the ball.Stepping up to take the penalty, Andy Reid looked calm as he walked slowly back from the ball and kept his nerve as he ran back to shoot, sending the ball to the right as substitute keeper Adam Legzdins dived to his left.The pressure all came from Forest as they pushed forward again and again with Derby only managing the occasional break, giving Lee Camp nothing to do.Forest looked much better on the ball, unafraid to get stuck in, they won nearly every tackle they went into, although they were again let down by the final ball.Derby controversially got back on level terms in the 29th minute when the referee allowed play to carry on, with Chris Cohen lying injured in the Derby half. Derby pressed patiently forward into the box and Forest allowed Jamie Ward to get away from Radi Majewski and Chris Gunter to beat Camp at the near post.The stretcher came on but eventually Cohen managed to limp slowly off to be replaced by Joel Lynch.Derby came to life after the goal and started to look more threatening going forward, but Forest still made the extra man count when Miller made a superb break and fed the ball across to Wes Morgan as he ran forward, but the Forest defender looked unsure what to do with the ball and wasted the chance.Forest came close just before half time when Lynch chipped the ball in and Legzdins got a hand to it. He was unable to keep hold of the ball under the challenge of Miller, who was judged by the referee to have fouled the keeper, just as the ball looked like it might creep over the line.And there were cries of hand ball when a great free kick into the box by Reid appeared to hit an arm in a crowded penalty area, but the referee waved play on.Forest pressed forward at the start of the second half and some patient build-up play ended when Majewski fed the ball to Reid, whose effort went over the crossbar.And a shot along the ground from Miller from just inside the penalty area was easily saved by Legzdins.Reid came close from a free kick 25 yards out and the Derby keeper had to parry the ball round for a corner, which was also cleared by the Derby defence.On the hour mark, Robbie Findley came on to replace Jonathan Greening and provide an injection of pace up front for Forest.Great delivery into the box by Lynch threatened but was bravely headed away by Mark O'Brien.For a split second it looked like Derby had taken the lead with a shot from Jeff Hendrick, who picked up a ball at the far post, but he headed just inches wide of the far post from four yards.Forest then came closed when Findley fired over a cross and Derbyshire dived in to try and turn the ball towards goal, but it flashed wide.There were loud cheers for Lewis McGugan, in contrast to the boos that Nathan Tyson had received from the Forest crows a couple of minutes earlier, with Reid the player to make way for him.McGugan was involved straight away with a well-taken corner into the box, but the header at the back post flashed wide.Derby took the lead in the 73rd minute when Forest were unable to get the ball clear following a corner.The ball went back towards the goal where Hendrick crashed it low into the left corner of the net from the D.Forest were quickly on the attack and Chris Gunter's cross found Derbyshire, but he headed the ball straight into the arms of the keeper.And with Derby pushing all ten men back into defence, Forest struggled to get through on goal.They came close when Lynch chested the ball past a defender and from the corner of the six-yard line he smashed the ball in, forcing the keeper to put the ball out for a corner.And they threatened again from McGugan's free kick on the by-line but again, with ten men defending the goal, Forest could not find a way through.In stoppage time a low ball into the box by Lynch found Derbyshire, but substitute Russell Anderson managed to stick out a foot to deflect the ball.A volley by Chambers from ten yards out flew over the crossbar and even with Camp coming up to help with their final chance of the game, it was not to be.Forest: Camp, Cohen(Lynch 32min), Morgan, Chambers(C), Gunter, Majewski, Greening(Findley 61min), Moussi, Reid(McGugan 68min), Derbyshire, Miller Subs not used: Smith, Moloney, Bookings: Gunter 10min, Lynch 45min, Miller 53minScorer: Reid 5minDerby County: Fielding, Brayford, Roberts, O'Brien, Shackell(C), Hendrick, Bryson, B Davies, Cywka(Legzdins 4min), Robinson(Anderson,87min), Ward(Tyson 66min).Subs not used: Croft, S DaviesBookings: Fielding Red Card 1min 30sec, Brayford 45+1minScorers: Ward 29min, Hendrick 73minReferee: S MathiesonAttendance: 27,356 Away attn: 4,582

**Also switching to first person, lol**
Joan left me to it after our brief conversation, for which I was pretty grateful. I knew how to tell this story, but not to somebody that, well, that I might end up being friends with. Could I tell it in a way that wouldn't make me seem totally pathetic? Nope, probably not.
Later, after pointe class, I was talking to a girl called Charlotte. She seemed quite nice, but not the sort of person to really stand out in a crowd. Her pointe work was the same - not bad, not good, just mediocre. I didn't judge her for it. We hadn't all had to go through what I did.
"Hi," she said. "I'm new. How long have you been here?"
"Oh, about two days." We grinned at each other. "I was going to audition a while back, but you know ... things got me down. Well, actually I was in hospital. And then ..."
Charlotte looked flabbergasted. "No way? I was in hospital too! I had to have an operation on my knee because the cartilage became infected or something. Yeah, I don't really understand it either. I couldn't even walk for about two months."
Without even thinking, I blurted it out. "I had brain surgery."
"You what?"
"I collapsed at dance class, doing pirouettes. I'd never fallen before but I was really dizzy. They called my mum and she told them that I'd never fainted in my life, so it was probably serious. I went to the hospital, had a scan, and they sent me home. The next day they rang up and told me I had a brain tumour."
Charlotte's rapt attention was everything I'd looked for in the people to whom I'd told this story in the past. "It wasn't what I was expecting. And this was, like, a week before my audition, you know? And they told me I had to have brain surgery that Wednesday afternoon. It was Monday morning.
"So my parents rang up my dance teachers, who were kind of angry. I had this audition, and I had my exam in a couple of weeks too, and they asked my dad why I wasn't going to be there at such an important time and he told them I was about to have brain surgery. That sort of shut them up.
"I had the operation. I don't remember it, of course. I just remember waking up. I couldn't move, couldn't walk, couldn't dance... My school had a show in just three months time and they were going to have to recast it. But I told them I would dance it and I did. Of course I did. I couldn't let them down...
"I was going to audition the following year, when I'd got my strength back, but..." I looked at Charlotte, who was still listening hard. With embarrassment I realised I was almost crying. "My dad died in a car crash a month before the audition."

Chapter 3: Illusion
It's been a couple days since Unith left the Argent Tournament Grounds. They were now heading for Howling Fjord to catch a boat to Eastern Kingdoms. They were taking a short cut through Storm Peaks. Ashbringer was sheathed on Unith's hip as his horse galloped relentlessly through the snowy fields. Mythaania's spiritual face appeared on the blade.
"Unith...I apologize...I should've explained all of this to you sooner. It was my fault you were mobbed." Mythaania's voice seemed to overlap with another, but still audible. Her eyes glanced up at Unith whose face was still. The blade bounced against the hide of the horse.
"... that detail might of been helpful to know in the beginning." Unith responded.
"I didn't know how to tell you at the time. Besides we wouldn't be in this situation if you didn't go on a rampage and end up killing me. After we get to my body, we go our seperate ways. You don't have to deal with me anymore. I'll ignore the fact that you killed me."
"It wasn't my fault. Anyone who holds that blade..." Unith stopped in dead silence. He heard the same voice that was in his dreams.
- "I... was... pure... once." The voice said.
"Anyone who holds the blade?... What happens if the person holds the blade?" Mythaania asked.
"Anyone who holds the blade starts to..." Unith was cut off by the voice again, losing train of though.
- "Fought... for... righteousness."
Unith continued, "Anyone who wields the blade, Ashbringer, they slowly become corrupt. They are in no control of their actions."
The voice finished, "I... was... once... called... Ashbringer."
Mythaania's face melted back into the blade, and Unith continued to ride. His face began to dot with sweat, despite the below freezing temperatures. As they neared K3, the Goblin settlement, Unith's horse bucked and reared his head forward in a dazing cry. Unith was thrown off and landed in the snow, sword first.
The horse dug its hooves into the thick snow, and ran into the distance. Unith stood up, buffeted by the fall as well as the flakes trickling down from a grey blue sky. He placed a hand on his hip to feel for the sword. Instead, he got a deep gash that oozed crimson. Dizzied from all the sudden blood loss, Unith searched the ground for another imprint in the snow.
He noticed a faint glow about 10 feet away from him. Shuffling through snow almost knee deep, he bent down and picked up Ashbringer. Mythaania's face appeared on the blade, her voice filled with worry.
"Unith? What happened? Why are we stopped?" Mythaania drove herself out of Ashbringer and reformed by Unith.
Looking to where Unith had one hand hard pressed against his side, Mythaania slowly lifted it, revealing the bloodied gash. She peered closer to it, her hazed eyes resting themselves upon the sight. Mythaania heavily sighed.
"Get the book out. Now." her voice was rigid. With only a slight amount of hesitation, Unith pulled the book from his bag.
"What exactly do you plan...to...do..." Unith's voice trailed off as he passed out on the ground.
With the flick of a hand, the book flew open. As Mythaania lifted her hand which had opened the book, it began to float. She waved fingers until it landed on a specific page. Mythaania raised her hands in a way that made it look like she was going to claw something. Mumbling in Demonic, Mythaania flashed one of her hands open towards Unith, and threw up the other arm.
Coughing terribly, Unith's body rattled and he shot up to a sitting position. He removed his hand from his side, noticing the gash had began to scab over.
"What exactly...did you do?" Unith muttered under his gasps for air.
"I told you. That book would come in handy. Now, we're about 3 miles out from K3. We can make it by nightfall." Mythaania lifted Ashbringer for Unith and handed it to him.
As her spirit depleted back into the sword, Unith sheathed it once again on his hip. Beginning to walk in the direction Mythaania spoke of, she whispered lowly,
"You Paladins never learn." Unith was almost certain laughter could be heard coming from her diminishing spirit
Unith got back up and looked around. The horse had ran far past Unith's viewing distance.
"...It looks like we're going to have to walk the rest of the way to K3. We should be able to get there by nightfall." Unith said with a sigh, mocking Mythaania's earlier statement.
Unith moved forward towards K3. He knew if he didn't make it to K3 by the time the sun had completely set, he would be engulfed by the blizzard. It had already been a couple hours after his horse had fled, and he only had a few minutes of sunlight left. He could see a small settlement on the horizon, maybe half an hour at the least to get there.
"Unith, we need to find shelter. We can make it to K3 tomorrow" Mythaania said.
"No. We can make it there by tonight, before the blizzard comes in." Unith responded.
They continued after the settlement up ahead. Unith could hear the whistling wind start to pick up speed. Unith tried to walk faster, but his feet kept sinking into the snow, causing him to slip.
"Unith, we need to stop. We're going to get trapped in the blizzard!" Mythaania spoke with concern.
"We can't stop now. We'll just have to make it through the storm to get there." Unith replied. "Besides. the sooner we get there, the sooner we can find your body."
"You stupid human!" Mythaania spoke in anger." It won't matter if it saves time, you'll end up dying in the storm. But hey, be my guest, you go ahead and try to act strong and go through the blizzard. If you die, I'll just wait for the next person to pick up your precious Ashbringer and have them take me to my body. Maybe they'll be smarter than a Paladin like yourself."
"I'm not going to get myself-" Unith stopped. He heard a huge rumble coming from his right. All he could see is darkness engulfing everything in the storms path.
"And that is me proving you wrong." Mythaania responded, the storm closing in.

The three of them walked in the tower and noticed a door on the opposite end of the room. Gardom looked around. "There's nothing here, something doesn't seem right."
Zelda looked surprised at Gardom. "For once I agree with you." She took a normal arrow and fire it into the room and it ignited as it hit the ground. "So anything that touches the floor instantly bursts into flames." She looked around. "The guards have to get across to check on the piece so there must be a way around this."
Link pointed at narrow holes in the walls of the room leading across. He grabbed a couple and started climbing across.
Gardom closed his eyes and sighed. "I hate heights, but it's for Hyrule." He paused. "Don't worry Zelda if you lack the upper body strength to make it across I'll understand." He turned but didn't find her anywhere near the door.
"Hurry up Gardom you're holding us up." Zelda yelled from across the room. Gardom slowly started to climb the way looking down way more often than he should which only made him travel across the room slower.
Several minutes later the three of them exited the room to find themselves in a room where the path is covered in lava and there are two exits. One blocked by chains across the door with a giant lock in front of it. "How do we get past this?" She looked and noticed plants growing out of the water with large bulbs hanging off of them. "What's that?" Gardom looked at the plants carefully.
"Those are geyser weeds. They grow in hot places and carry water in those bulbs there. It's said the water they generate takes longer to evaporate."
Zelda drew her bow. "So if we pop a hole in those plants we might be able to walk across." She fired an arrow and the water dripped from the plant and the lava steamed leaving behind a large rock that could be walked on. She fired several more arrows hitting the plants before the ground was clear. The three of them exited out of the room and into a small room with suits of armor along the walls.
"Something feels creepy about this place." Gardom said as he looked around he walked to the center of the room. A blue glow rose from the floor of the room and split with each piece going to a suit of armor. The armors walked out and started to attack Gardom but he managed to swing his axe and get some distance. "There are five of these guys. I'll take four you two take out the last one." He said as he swung his axe down and broke the helm of a nearby suit.
Zelda started to fire her arrows at two of the suits using her ice arrows to freeze them in place then switched to a black arrow. When it hit the armor a light explosion happened which sent the pieces of the armor flying.
Link was using his sword to fight one suit, and the shield to protect himself as another tried to attack. As the two suits of armor tried to attack at the same time Link rolled out of the way causing the suits to attack each other separating the armor. All the suits fell to the ground and the light seemed to die down but there was no path to be seen.
"Where do we go from here?" Gardom said as he looked around. The light soon reappeared as the three of them readied their weapons a small box appeared in the middle of the room. Link walked up and took a small key out of the box and held it up high with a grin on his face. Gardom looked at him confused. "Please, it's just a key." He took the key from Link's hand and led the party as they walked to the locked door they saw earlier. Gardom looked at Zelda. "Do they really have to fight those things every time they check on the piece?" Zelda shrugged as she grabbed the key and opened the door.
When they entered the room there was a large chest near a door that was far bigger than any door they seen before, and another chest on the opposite side of the room. Gardom looked at Link and Zelda. "Is it just me or do you hear something breathing on the other end of that door?" He quietly walked over to the door but a wall of fire rose from the floor blocking their path. Link looked around and opened up a nearby chest which contained a pair of boots. Link grinned and held the boots up in the air. Gardom sighed. "Do you do that every time you open a box?"
Zelda looked at the boots. "Looks like they're called boost boots. I've heard of these. If I'm right the wearer can jump to incredible heights with these."
Gardom looked at them. "Why would they put a pair of old boots nearby." He walked off and accidently triggered the flame wall again. "I hate this thing." He started to swing his axe at the flames.
Zelda looked at Link. "I don't know what's hotter that wall or his temper." She looked at the wall. "There's a small gap between the fire and the roof if you use the boots you can jump in between the gap and pass through."
Link put on the boots and jumped narrowly avoiding the flames as he retrieved the key and opened the door to the next chamber. When the door opened the flames died down and Gardom looked at him. "Show off arrogant little punk." They walked inside looking around as a swarm of lizard looking creatures swarmed the party. Gardom started swinging madly left and right as Link used his spin attack with Zelda providing cover with regular arrows. Swarm after swarm came after them with the battle lasting several minutes before an eerie calm finally filled the room.
Zelda looked around before noticing a door towering above them to their left. The lock on the door was bigger than any door they walked in before. To the right she noticed another door up above them with a platform leading to it. "Link, we'll have to wait here as you travel down that path. Without the books we have no way of getting up there."
Link nodded and jumped up rushing into the door. A large box stood on the opposite side, but as Link walked over to the box once again a wall of fire appeared this time rising up to the roof. There was no way Link could get across. He walked around the room before finding two switches that when stood on activated. He stood there thinking wondering how he could activate both of them at once and spotted a large crate. He grabbed it and with a mighty pull the crate slowly moved before placing it on top of one of the switches. Walking over to the other when both switches were pressed a rumbling sound could be heard near the chest. Cautiously, Link walked over this time reaching the chest and pulling out a massive key. He quickly left the room and jumped down to Gardom and Zelda showing the key.
Link walked over to the large door and used the key and the look fell down the chains echoing in the room. Gardom prepared for battle as he took his axe off and ran into the room. It was dark and Gardom was out of site until a bright light shined in the room and Gardom screamed. "Are you serious!" Zelda and Link ran in to find themselves face to face with a towering, ferocious, fire breathing, Dragon.
Gardom pointed at it. "What the heck is that?"
Zelda looked at it. "That's a Dragon, few people have ever survived encounters with these beasts. They breath fire that can easily incinerate us."
Gardom ran up to the Dragon and swung his axe hitting the Dragon on the side, but the Dragon wasn't fazed and with one swipe of its wing it flung Gardom to the side.
Zelda rushed to Gardom and helped him up. "You can't just blindly strike, Dragons have a weak spot behind the neck. We have to aim there." Gardom groaned and slowly worked his way back to his feet.
The Dragon went after Gardom and tried to bite him but Gardom slashed at the Dragon hitting its jaw and cracking a couple of its teeth. Link then jumped up onto the Dragon's back and landed a mighty blow at its weak point. The Dragon turned over and fell on Link slowly getting back up. Link was having trouble standing and the Dragon was about to strike back but Gardom quickly pulled Link out of its way. The Dragon then breathed fire in their direction but Link quickly used his spin attack creating enough of a gust to redirect the fire away from them. Link tried again to jump over the Dragon but was knocked aside in mid air by the Dragon's razor sharp claws. Zelda took one of her arrows and fired it right at the Dragon causing it to turn around and shoot fire in her direction. She dodged it and shot an Ice arrow right at the beast's mouth freezing it shut. It leaned over and Gardom threw his axe right at the Dragon hitting the weak point in its armor the power behind his throw causing it to fall over. Zelda then jumped on the Dragon and fired one last arrow on it. The dragon feel limp and disappeared in a cloud of smoke.
A chest fell from the top of the room onto the ground before them. In it a piece of the Master sword. Zelda sighed in relief. "Finally took long enough. I" before she could finish her statement a man showed up in the room seemingly out of nowhere.
"My, my, my, you made that look so much harder than it have to be." He sat down with a large sword in his hands. He gently set it down and slowly clapped for the party. He looked at the three of them before turning his attention to Link."You there, boy, come here." Link slowly walked over to the man. "I know why you're here, and I know you mean well, but you are far from ready for the war ahead of you; however, I still think you have a chance, you just need a little work." He stood up and drew his sword holding the two handed blade in his right hand. "There are five unique sword maneuvers only mastered by the best of the best." He pointed his sword at Link. "If you hope to gain the power to defeat Ganon. You must be able to use them all."
Link drew his blade and the two swords clashed making a loud clang. Link's sword was flung across the room and landed on the floor. "That's called a Tiger Rise." He walked over and threw Link's sword back at him. "It's an upward attack that when timed correctly can disarm an enemy and leave you ready for a finishing blow. We will continue this until you've knocked this monstrosity of a sword out of my hand." The two clashed blades several more times before Link successfully used the move. The man smiled and laughed as he watched his sword land on the ground. "Not bad kid." He patted Link on the shoulder. "A great burden has been placed on you, greater than what should be asked, but everyone's depending on you." He turned facing away from the group. "We will meet again, and when we do I have another technique for you." He smiled walked off and disappeared.
Gardom looked at the others. "I don't know what just happened, but I think that was a ghost." The two of them just looked at Gardom unable to think of a reply to that.
Zelda looked at where the man was. "Ghost or not he's at least here to help, but I would like to know who he is."
Link raised his sword and yelled. "Hiyaa!"
Gardom sighed. "Really? Still that energetic."
The three of them left the castle and walked back to their base rejoicing that they retrieved the first piece.
The two parties regrouped at the base and the Old Man smiled as he held the piece in his hands. "Great job you guys, great job. We're one step closer to taking down that evil king of ours."
Gardom sighed. "Yeah, but we had to take down a dragon in our first quest. If that's how we begin what's in the other four?"
Zelda smacked him in the back of the head. "Hey we defeated it didn't we. Besides we'll just have to wait and see. Now where's the next best place to go?"
The Old Man starred at the map. "This one." He pointed to another circle on the map. "The castle of lightning." He looked at the group. "Get some rest. You've earned it, and need it even more for tomorrow will be even more difficult than today." He retreated to a back room. The party decided to keep the details of the mysterious swordsman to themselves, not even sure how to explain it in the first place as everyone went back laid down in the beds and exhaustion quickly lured them to a deep sleep.
Chapter 5: Speak softly and carry a big stick
The party woke up the next morning feeling triumphed but also worried of the challenges ahead. Smith looked at the Zelda and then the Old Man. "I think I'll go with them this time Grandpa."
The Old Man looked at him and sighed. "You make the decision as if we don't need you here."
Smith looked back at the old man intensely. "You saw the way they came back yesterday." He paused. "They were lucky to come back at all and you're sending them into something even more challenging. They need all the help they can get."
The Old Man walked up to Smith and looked him right in the eye. "Everyone plays there part in this group. However hard that may be you must understand. We are all at risk. I can't have you going around playing hero because you think Zelda is a damsel in distress."
Smith stared back at the Old Man. "And I can't just stand by knowing that she could be."
The Old Man tapped his cane. "It looks like you're mind is made up. Fine, go, besides I'm sure we can come up with some way of keeping the guards off your trail." He stroked his chin and thought for a moment. "The same idea won't work twice, but." He paused again and looked around for several minutes before looking up with a glow in his eyes. "Ah, that just might work!" He held up a bow and took one black arrow away from Zelda. "There's an abandon part of town not far from here where a lot of work is taking place, if we cause a little mischief there we should draw all the guards to that spot. Leaving the castle wide open." He looked at the rest of the group. "I can do this on my own, so you best hurry up. The guards may be stupid but they work fast you won't have a lot of time." He started to head out. "Good luck." He said as he walked out the door.
Smith looked at Gardom, Zelda, and Link. "We should be on our way as well."
Gardom grumbled as they all left. "This saving Hyrule stuff is a lot harder than I thought it would be."
Smith without even looking at Gardom. "Let me guess you thought you could swing an axe and cut them all down in one swoop."
Gardom grinned. "Well one could only hope."
Zelda grabbed Smith's arm and looked at him. "I don't need your protection. If I find out the Old Man got hurt because of your selfish actions. I will never let you live it down." She paused and let him go. "Now get moving you're arrogance is testing my patience."
Smith sighed and was about to respond when they heard an explosion in the background. "There's our diversion, quickly now." He said as he started to run with the others following close behind him; however, before they could get to the castle they heard blades clanging. Zelda pulled on Smith's arm. "Wait, someone's in trouble"
Smith pulled away. "There's no time we need to hurry up and get to the castle. Zelda, Zelda!"
Zelda was already running off and looked at Link. "We'll go check it out, you two take out the castle guards." She said addressing Smith and Gardom as she pulled Link in the direction of the battle with Smith and Gardom taking off to the castle.
Link and Zelda rushed to where the sound came from to find a woman fighting off two knights with a metal staff as several civilians were running from the scene. One knight looked at the girl and slashed at her with his sword but she countered by thrusting her staff into the knight's helm. She then flipped her staff over knocking the knight behind her under the chin sending him flying backwards landing with a loud thud on the ground. It looked like she had the fight won, but then five more knights rushed to their aid. Zelda looked at Link. "We have to do something." She stood up and fired a series of arrows at the knights sending two of them to the ground hitting exposed parts of the leg armor around the joints. The other three knights advanced and Link jumped up in the air using the boost boots and using the tip of his sword landed on one of the guards bouncing off of him and landing on the other, bounced once again landing a blow to the final Knight.
The girl walked over to Zelda and Link. "I try to avoid using weapons with a blade, too violent, but I'm starting to consider making an exception to that." She looked at the knights on the ground. "Still breathing, that's a relief. If the people strong enough to defend themselves start attacking the knights the same way they do to us. What good would that do anyone?" She smiled. "It's nice to know there are others still holding on to any scrap of decency in this place. I'm Aurora."
Zelda smiled back. "I'm Zelda, and this is Link."
Aurora looked at Link waiting for him to say something. "What's the matter cat got your tongue?"
Link turned a light shade of red as Zelda turned to her. "He doesn't speak."
Aurora chuckled. "Well isn't that amusing, so what brings you over in this part of town?"
Zelda pointed to the castle nearby. "We're collecting the pieces of the Master Sword, once we do Link's going to fight Ganon."
Aurora looked skeptic. "Looks a little puny doesn't he." She paused. "Well good luck to you, but I doubt you'll get far."
Zelda smirked. "Don't be so sure, we already have one of the pieces."
Aurora looked impressed. "So silent but deadly does have a little backbone, nice." She looked in the direction of the explosion. "So I take it that's why there's less of these guys up and about. Create a diversion so you can sneak in and out, but what happens with the knights swarm in on the explosion and catch the person responsible?"
Zelda, and Link stood there quietly realizing the predicament the Old Man put himself in. Aurora sighed. "Ok you know what you people are ok and I have a debt to repay. Who's your guy and I'll get him out."
Zelda started to describe the Old Man. "Well, he's old and..."
Aurora started to head off in his direction and Zelda tried to stop her. "Wait! I barely said anything."
Aurora laughed. "Please, people rot in this town it's rare to find someone who actually aged. He'll stand out like a sore thumb." She started running off and turned to Link. "Better have a story for me when you get done pretty boy."
Zelda looked at Link starring at him. "I don't see it." She turned around and the two rushed over to the castle and immediately noticed the group of guards lying around. "I see some people have been busy." She smiled and the two of them walked inside.
Link's to the previous chapters.

What's your speculation?
I'm putting the entire contents of this post behind a jump link, to shield the eyes of our anti-spoiler/speculation brethren. :)
Now that we're just hours away from The Office Season 3 finale, I figured you guys needed some kind of outlet for all that nervous energy you're undoubtedly feeling.
So tell me, what's your speculation?
Lots to think about:
- Now that Rashida Jones' show The Rules for Starting Over has been officially picked up by Fox, how does this affect Karen's appearances on The Office?
- Will we see any JAM action tonight?
- Who will be offered the job at corporate? Who will take the job at corporate?
- And my favorite, regarding the "literally big" Michael/Jan development that various members of the cast have been alluding to for weeks, what is that big development? Is Jan pregnant? Did Jan get a boob job? Does Jan take Michael's old job in Scranton?
Discuss amongst yourselves.

woah I didn't think about that…Jan getting michael's job. good one!
- pamcasso
Well, BJ was on KROQ in LA this morning, and he gave some MAJOR hints……again, he said that Jan comes in with news…and what ensues is hilarious.
He then said that Dwight takes over Dunder Mifflin…at least in this episode…
And that there are "quite a few" Jim and Pam moments
He then said the episode will leave "everyone psyched" and that they've already started writing season 4, and what they are writing is based on what happens in the finale……..
My personal opinion:
* Pam and Jim confront the issue, but they are going to "work on their friendship"
* I think Michael will get the job at corporate…but then maybe next season miss DM so much that he comes back
* I also think they give Rashida an option of staying at corporate, which she ponders….and we might not know the answer until next season..
As for the "Big News" from Jan – Maybe she is coming to DH to be closer to Michael (?) That is, if he doesnt get the job at corporate.
9.5 hours and counting.
My guesses:
I think there will be some JAM action, but not as intense as last year's kiss.
I think Jim will be offered the job, but for some reason or another Karen will somehow wind up with it in the end.
And I think Jan is pregnant.
It's ridiculous how nervous I get before finales like this one… seriously. Based on things I've read, I'm saying Michael gets the job. I'm not sure HOW in the world that's going to work considering… it's Michael. And it will totally change the tone of the show if Dwight – or someone else – is in charge in Scranton, BUT putting Dwight in charge does bode well for lots of Jim and Pam pranks, so hey, works for me. I just don't think it makes sense to send Jim away for the second year in a row. And surely it's not something crazy, like two of them get corporate jobs or something… no, no, no…
On the Jim/Pam front, I don't think (no matter how hard I might wish) they're "getting together" tonight. My biggest hope at this point is that Jim tells Pam he misses her as well and they start rebuilding their friendship. I'd love to see S4 Jim and Pam return to their S2 state… And honestly, I'm still waiting for a bit of a fight or argument between the two about everything that happened.
The wild card is Karen. With Rashida's pilot picked up, how will they handle that relationship? Will she and Jim break up or try to get through this "rough patch" – eventually to no avail? How much can Rashida actually be around if she's on another show and how do they handle it in the finale since they had no "for sure" on her pilot getting picked up…
*sigh* Is it 7 yet?
- Toby from HR
Here you go:
1) Rashida doing another show will lead to her not having enough time to be a regular, thus breaking up Jim and Karen.
2) Of course. But I doubt they're going to reconcile the whole thing. They're going to want to milk this for as long as possible. I'm guessing until the SERIES finale.
3) Jim will have it offered to him, but Karen will take it (her being in New York is a good excuse to get her out of the picture but still have her available for the occasional cameo.
4) Karen is pregnant. That's 99% sure.
I'm pulling on the writers to put Jim and Pam together so we can be done with that and move on to other plot lines. Honestly, it's dragged on to the point that JAM is taking away from the show and I'm not sure if I'm watching The Office or The Young and the Restless. For most other shows getting the star-crossed lovers together might spell doom, but The Office is unique and creative enough to pull it off. The only question is: Do the writers have the guts to do it?
Tonight we'll find out.
- Kismet
Okay, here goes:
I am so beyond speculation this point, but my biggest fear is that the cliffhanger will be who actually ends up going to corporate. If they do this, I will cry!
I tend to lean towards Jan being pregnant. I think that Karen will get the corporate job. I think it might be offered to Jim, though. Wouldn't it be interesting if we ended up with a scenario where Karen got a job in NY, and Jim was also offered one? Then Jim's choice would be between NY-bottled-water-Karen, or Scranton-grape-soda-Pam. hmmmm.
I think Jim gets offered the job but turns it down without telling Karen why; she takes the job and they try the long-distance thing (confirming reports we'll see "more" of corporate next year). I can't imagine Michael getting a promotion, and I don't like to think that the Office producers/writers would be so unoriginal as to have Jim leave the office again. I don't think the boob job proposal is in line with the show's humor/style, but I really can't figure out what her "big" news is. I guess I'll just have to wait 6 or 7 hours and find out…
- JAMtastic
i think jim will be offered the job, but he'll give it up because he won't be able to stop thinking about pam's speech. i think that karen will take the job instead. i really think jan is preggers…i think that jim will confront pam about her speech. pam will admit that she has feelings for jim, and that she's jealous of karen.(that's my hope anyways), i don't know, but all i know for sure is that the writers won't disappoint…
- Toby from HR
Whoops, on number 4 I meant JAN is pregnant, not Karen.
- Jim Bag!
I love the speculation page :-)
I'll return with my predictions later.
- ooga booga
I think Karen is off the show.
Definitely some JAM action…I want to see everyone's (of course Jim's)reaction to Pam.
Jim will be offered the job…Karen will take the job.
I think Jan will interview Michael and when he sees her, she have HUGE boobs. This will cause him to act more Michael than usual.
I think we're going to get some major Dwangela action as well.
- spazzychipmunk
Wow….soooo much to think about. I don't think Karen gets offered the job, but I think she does go to Corporate (does that make sense?). Like maybe Jim/Michael gets the job but they turn it down. I would love if Jim turned it down and I think it would be kind of full circle, dont you think? Last season, Jim made a confession and ran. It would be a pretty big character development if he stayed, I think.
And what's the big "game changer" ala Lost? The only thing thats coming to mind is Michael leaving, but given the spoilers, and Rashida Jones' show being picked up (which in the very least means she has a reduced role on the show), I'm not sure Michael does get the job.
ARGH! I don't know…..only 6 hours and 19 minutes.
- mixedberries
2. I'd really like to see Jim come back to Scranton from New York as the "old Jim," with his floppy hair and rolled up sleeves, and planning to pull a prank on Dwight with Pam. I'm okay with them just being friends again at the end of this season.
3. I think Jim will get offered the job, but turn it down when he realizes he's not New York Jim, he's Scranton Jim. Then Karen will take the job.
Either that or Karen will get offered the job and Jim will assume that he's going to New York with her until she tells him otherwise.
4. I have no idea what the big Jan surprise is. I think she's pregnant, but since Melora has vetoed that idea, I'm not sure.
- for realsies
The suspense is killing me! I'm still wondering what they mean in the summary by "Pam plays an interesting role." Could it be possible that the fancy new Beesley decides she wants a shot at a corporate job herself? I know that's far-fetched, but I'm not discounting any curve balls that these writers may throw our way tonight. I do feel good about so many of the cast members saying that "questions will be answered." Can't wait!
- KingoftheStupidUniverse
Karen is out.
Definite JAM action tonight and they will definitely be dating next season. The writers aren't going to drag it out any longer.
Jan and Michael switch jobs.
Jan's getting huge "chesticles"!
- smartone
My predictions
Michael is offered the job
Karen doesn't get job but stays in NYC
Michael picks Dwight for RM job — Jim doesn't get RM Job because he turned it down last week –
Jan definitely getting boob job (hence the title of episode "The Job")
sets up next year where Michael is at corporate and Dwight is RM with Jim back at scranton
- Lindsay
i think jan is pregnant. i think karen will get the job. i think pam and jim will get married and live happily ever after…it's not going to be that simple is it?
- Janet
I agree with most of what Toby from HR says about JAM happening and Jan pregnant. I think Michael goes to corporate because Jan is pregnant. If Jan is not pregnant, I think they reconcile and get married, and again, Michael goes to NY. I think Jim will be the RM in Scranton.
- Amy
I definetly think that Jim will be offered the Job but turn it down, instead Karen gets it. But I dont see how this would involve changes for the whole office…
Anyway, I think the Jam action will hapen after Jim comes back from NY, just telling Pam that he turned the offer down.
Just a guess.
- Emily
Ok. I really have no clue what's going to happen tonight, so I am just going to list my ideas.
1. I think Jan is pregnant, especially after hearing Angela put the emphasis on "big" changes for Jan and Michael. I mean, it's pretty obvious, it doesn't sound like Michael and Jan are expecting a baby, but I really do think that's it.
2. About the job in corporate- I think that they will offer Jim the job, but of course after Pam's heart-wrenching speech, he can't leave her again, especially knowing how she feels about him now. So, somehow he realizes he's not meant for New York material, he's a Scranton boy for lifee =).
3. Once, Jim turns down the job, I think it will be offered to Karen. Michael, on the other hand, will most likely stay as regional manager. Then, I think Karen will expect Jim to move to New York with her, since the relationship seems pretty intense. But, he won't && I think tonight's the eppisode where they break up (hopefully!! *crosses fingers*
4. PLEASE WE NEED JAM ACTION. I really want to see some juicy JAM. Whoop! That's my #1 priority of the night! Ha-ha.
Ok, that's my speculation. Thanks for reading! Respond if you agree/disagree! .

I didn't get the role I wanted for The Importance of Being Ernest, which would have been Ernest. I got the part of the rector, Doctor Chasuble, which wasn't too bad. After that I performed in a string of other performances before deciding to get a job doing something else. I found a bookshop in Mildaley town centre, starting in retail, and before I knew it, I'd become assistant manager.
I think I've told you all I can about my line of work.
Today I decided to take Kimberley out to dinner to cheer her up after yesterday. Apparently a sales girl in Madames spat at her for being casually dressed. I hope Kimberley didn't treat her too badly afterwards. She's a strong-willed woman, and she's not afraid to say or do anything drastic to get what she wants. She should have been a lawyer. She went for a law degree actually, but she was taken off the course in her third year because she had a nervous breakdown. I didn't know her at the time, so I couldn't tell you what that was about.
Anyway, Kimbo and I decided to go to Gino's because I don't like a pizza that's too greasy and she likes food that's expensive and tastes good. As always, I pay for the dinner and she pays me back afterwards, not necessarily in money. That's the deal we've had since I can remember. I won't lie, she enjoys the meal and if we decide the dessert will taste better in bed we'll go to a hotel and she likes that too.
This time around, I decide to let Kimbo know about my wife's suspicions. The one weekend I brought Kimbo back to the house when Shell (short for Michelle) was at a competent parenting course, she came back to find a long blonde hair in the toilet bowl. I had to lie and say it was from a toupee I'd been trying on. She knew I was sensitive about my baldness so it kept her quiet, but Shell is suspicious. I told Kimberley, who didn't seem to be taking the concept very seriously. She wanted to know, in her frostiest voice, what I was getting at, so I told her that from now on we'd be seeing each other... less frequently.
So Kimberley was upset and began making a scene, but we were interrupted by the main course arriving. We eat pizza in different ways; I like to cut mine into pieces because it's easier to chew that way - she likes to eat the crust (her least favourite bit) to get it over with, and then will roll the base up and eat it that way. She is a funny lass.
But today, she was eating less. I asked what was the matter, and she replied, 'Oh, nothing. But if you think you're getting laid after this you've got another thing coming.' I was upset not just because I was in the mood, but because she'd broken our deal. I said, 'Well listen, how about we go halves on the dinner and leave it there?' And she said, 'Oh no you don't. This piece of paper says you pay for the diner AND decide out of the goodness of your bloody heart to tip me generously for all my past services.' And then she handed me the paper, and it has my wife's mobile number written on it. God knows how she found that out.
So we finished the dinner, which took an excruciatingly long time. She called the waiter over to refill her glass about three times and selected a very pricey dessert. And i had to go along with it, because if I didn't, my wife was going to find out in the most inelegant manner possible that I'd been shagging a woman I met in a bar.

Most stocks will follow the direction of the general market. And now that the market is in a correction, look for leading stocks to pull back and digest gains.
One key area to watch for is the 10-week moving average. The line can offer support and can be used as a sell signal. A number of leading stocks are already at or near their 10-week lines.
Apple (AAPL) is testing its 10-week moving average. This is its first test of the line since breaking out from a cup-with-handle base in April. Apple reversed from a near two-year high last week in below-average trade.
This week's volume was also tracking below average. Soft turnover in a pullback is a good thing.
Lithia Motors (LAD) has backtracked to its 10-week line in mostly tame volume. The stock has already had a huge run in recent years. It rallied nearly 42% after breaking out past a 68.66 entry from a handle in a double-bottom base in early April.
The stock has corrected as much as 10% from its July peak, so it may end up forming a flat base.
Last month, the auto dealer beat expectations with a 28% rise in Q2 earnings. Sales climbed 21%, marking the second straight quarter of acceleration.
OmniVision Technologies (OVTI) is testing its own 10-week line. It's also a little below a 23.19 buy point from a cup-with-handle base. The current pattern corrected much less than a prior cup-with-handle that ran almost a year in length.
U.S. Silica (SLCA) staged a big downside reversal in heavy trade last week, but it is putting in a rebound this week. Volume was tracking slightly above average for the week. The stock is in its first test of the line since clearing a consolidation in March.
Akorn (AKRX) had some wild action this week, despite posting Q2 results above views and raising guidance. But the stock got support at its 10-week moving average. This is its first test of the line since breaking out from a cup base in May.

The Jewish state's chief prosecutor revealed investigators suspect he took envelopes full of cash from New York fundraiser Morris Talansky.
He is also accused of giving favours in return for a discount on the purchase of a Jerusalem home.
Probe: Ehud Olmert, speaking in Latrun yesterday, was questioned again today
The leader, who was first questioned three weeks ago, has denied any wrongdoing but said he would resign if charged.
This morning police arrived at Mr Olmert's home and are understood to have quizzed him over claims he helped Mr Talansky obtain business contracts in South America while in previous government posts.
And a police source said officers would travel to the U.S. "in the coming weeks to continue the investigation in the Olmert case".
Mr Olmert acknowledged earlier this month that Talansky raised funds for his two successful campaigns for mayor of Jerusalem in 1993 and 1998, a failed bid to lead the right-wing Likud party in 1999 and a further internal Likud election in 2002.
Prosecutors want Mr Talansky to give evidence under oath on Sunday before a court order banning him from leaving Israel expires the following day.
But Olmert's lawyers will ask the Jerusalem District Court today to delay the testimony by two weeks.
The Israeli Supreme Court this week rejected Olmert's petition to stop a lower court from hearing preliminary testimony from Mr Talansky.
Mr Olmert has said his former law partner handled the details, voicing confidence the attorney made sure proper procedures were followed.
Israeli media today reported that questioning of Olmert would focus on the attorney's evidence.
A judicial source said the sums involved totaled hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Mr Olmert is also under criminal investigation into accusations that he gave favours in return for a discount on the purchase of a Jerusalem home, and appointed cronies to a state business authority. He has said the suspicions are baseless.
Last November police concluded there was insufficient evidence against him over his role in the sale of state-owned Bank Leumi when serving as finance minister.
Israel and Syria, in a surprise move, announced on Wednesday that they had begun indirect peace talks in Turkey, a move many Israelis believed was meant to divert attention from Mr Olmert's various corruption probes.
Yesterday the PM briefly suspended a speech he was giving when demonstrators marched in front of him, carrying a banner saying "The people are with the Golan," in protest at the talks with Syria.
Damascus has demanded the return of the Golan Heights, a strategic plateau Israel captured in the 1967 Middle East war.
Olmert has not said publicly that Israel would give up all of the area.

The BEST Doctor EVER! She takes so much time with each patient and really DOES care. She is passionate about helping her patients and compassionate while doing so. She also aspires to work WITH you, trying to figure out the best care possible, rather than just writing scripts at a drop of a hat. She truly cares about her patients as she attempts to get to the root cause of health issues, not just masking the underlying cause with pharmaceuticals. I trust her judgment when it comes to my healthcare concerns.

Could not have found a better physician!!!!
I have lived in the Sheboygan area my entire life. As an adult, I have been to several different doctors, none of which made me feel comfortable enough to return to after the first visit. I found Dr. Vrzal by complete accident. Who says accidents are a bad thing??? Not only do I keep every appointment with Dr. Vrzal, but I actually look forward to seeing her the next time! She has an amazing disposition for making her patients feel welcome and best of all comfortable. She offers choices and makes her patients feel like they have control over their treatment. I can only hope and pray that she doesn't go anywhere any time soon because I have never had a better experience in the doctor's office!!!

- the all-cause mortality hazard ratio was 0.87 (p=0.01) in as-treated patient analyses when compared with patients receiving conventional thrice-weekly in-center dialysis,
- the cause-specific mortality hazard ratios were 0.92 (p=0.34) for cardiovascular disease; 1.13 (p=0.41) for infection; 0.63 (p=0.03) for cachexia/dialysis withdrawal; 1.06 (p=0.69) for other specified cause; and 0.59 (p<0.01) for unknown cause. For this study, hazard ratios of <1 indicate reduced risk of death, whereas ratios of >1 indicate a greater risk. Mortality results in the study are associated with a reduced risk of death from cachexia/dialysis withdrawal and unknown causes.
LAWRENCE, Mass., Feb. 23, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- NxStage® Medical, Inc. (Nasdaq: NXTM), a leading manufacturer of innovative dialysis products, today commented on findings of the Chronic Disease Research Group (CDRG) study which shows patients using the NxStage System One™ for daily, or more frequent, home hemodialysis, experienced a 13 to 18 percent lower risk of mortality and higher 3-year survival compared with that of patients treated with center-based conventional, thrice-weekly dialysis. The CDRG paper, "Mortality in Daily Home Hemodialysis and Matched Thrice-Weekly In-center Hemodialysis Patients" was published online on the Journal of the American Society of Nephrology (JASN) website in advance of its release in print. CDRG evaluated 1,873 NxStage daily home hemodialysis patients and 9,365 in-center patients over a three year period. CDRG is a nonprofit division of the Minneapolis Medical Research Foundation committed to investigating chronic illness to improve public health. (Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20110503/MM94799LOGO ) The retrospective cohort study is the largest to date examining all-cause and cause-specific mortality and three-year survival of daily home hemodialysis patients using the NxStage System One compared with a matched cohort of in-center hemodialysis patients from the United States Renal Data System (USRDS) database. The study is also the most rigorously matched of its kind, leveraging 17 matching criteria including first date of follow-up, demographic characteristics, disease severity measures, transplant waiting list and other severity of disease covariates that could impact mortality. The study demonstrated that in the intention-to-treat analysis:

Red and swollen outer ear
Both my ears are red and swollen and I feel a burning sensation.. After searching the Internet I found out that it might be perichondritis. Can homeopathy provide a solution to this? What's the average heal time?

There are two differential diagnoses for your condition - Acute Perichondritis & Relapsing Polychondritis. Hurry up and consult a good ENT Specialist near you before your ear cartilage is destroyed completely and you end up with a Cabbage Ear! Alternate medicine has no solution for both these conditions. Is anybody gives you any promises contrary to the same, just google up images of Cabbage Ear to realise what you are up against.

BMW e-Boxer | UP TO SPEED
Electric bikes have come a long way in the last few years, but they still struggle to match the aesthetics of a gas-powered machineparticularly without bodywork.
Electric motors are just boring to look at, and after more than a century of motorcycles designed to emphasize the mechanical beauty of their engines its hard to let go of that. But BMWs latest development could be a solution to that issue.
The firm is already a leading light in the electric-bike movement as the only one of the established manufacturers to have an electric offering already on sale in the form of its C Evolution scooter. Its latest design reveals that its been working on an electric motorcycle that mimics the visual appeal of its traditional boxer-twin engines.
The idea is simply to attach two electric motors to a central transmission, with one poking out each side of the bike just like the cylinders on a boxer twin. The transmission rotates their drive by 90 degrees to allow the use of a shaft drive, again in conventional BMW style. To boost the look, and to take advantage of the fact the motors are hanging out of the sides of the bike, the patent indicates that air-cooled motors are likely to be used, complete with functional cooling fins on their aluminum cases, which would help complete the illusion.
If hiding cooling units or ECUs is an issue, expect a small upper fairing for the eBoxer.
As well as looking more interesting than a single-motor design, the BMW layout offers practical advantages. The two motors can be smaller than a single one while providing the same output, and theyll have a lower center of gravity in this configuration. The design also suggests that when theres relatively little load on the motors, the transmission could be arranged to allow one motor to disengage and stop entirely, reducing friction and helping improve the bikes range compared to a single-motor layout.
The sketches accompanying the firms patent application are simplistic in the extreme, giving little clue as to the machines final look, but given its commitment to electric power, not just on the C Evolution but also on its i3 and i8 cars, it would be no surprise to see a BMW electric bike in prototype, or even production, form in the very near future.

The Colorado Rapids looked primed to give up some valuable points at home to FC Dallas thanks to an early second half goal from David Ferriera, but Rapids midfielder Vicente Sanchez wasn't going to let that happen Saturday night at Dick's Sporting Goods Park.
Sanchez had a hand in both of the Rapids (12-8-9, 45 pts.) goals in its 2-1 victory over Dallas (10-8-10), giving Colorado three important points in a Western Conference game with playoff implications.
After a 50-minute delay to the game because of a thunderstorm, it was Ferriera and Dallas who struck first.
The Colombian midfielder opened the scoring in the 51st minute after getting on the end of a Jair Benitez cross from the left wing that was slid across the Rapids goals. Ferriera, who started the move in the midfield, was able to get on the end of the cross after bursting into the box on a late-runner and getting on the goal side of the Colorado defense.
It took Colorado just seven minutes to get the goal back, though
Chris Klute put a cross into the Dallas box and two Dallas defenders tried to head it away, but instead they put the ball to Sanchez, who was having his way much of the game on the left wing for Colorado, inside the penalty area. The Uruguayan took the volley first time and slotted his shot home in the 59th minute, leveling the score.
Six minutes later Sanchez was again tormenting the Dallas defense. This time the midfielder dribbled around George John on the left side of the penalty area and pulled across back in front of goal in the direction of a Gabriel Torres, who was bursting into the box. Luckily for Dallas Matt Hedges he was in a good position, but unluckily he miscued the clearance and tipped the ball into the net, giving the Rapids a 2-1 lead.
Dallas tried to bring the score level and attacked Clint Irwin in the Colorado net, but the Rapids held onto their lead and got a valuable three points that keeps them in third place in the Western Conference.
With the loss the Toros move three points behind the Portland Timbers for the fifth and final playoff spot in the west.
Colorado will head to Portland on Friday to take on the Timbers. Dallas will head to New York to take on the Red Bulls on Sunday.
Here are the match highlights:
Sanchez was beautiful there the way he cut George John and left him completely out of the play. He's been a force from the moment he hit the field for the Rapids a few games back.
Pleastly surprised with Sanchez. Could be the best midseason signing in MLS this year. The guy is a real quality player that still runs around and fights like he is ten years younger.
Even tho he got beat G. John put in another quality game. Ferrera while he is talented is a total flop.
Disappointed by this article. I would have thought the writers Ives hires would at least know the names of the players they are writing about. " Luckily for Dallas Chris Hedges he was in a good position" His name is Matt Hedges and he was one of the top rookies last year.
Sanchez was fun to watch on Toluca a few years back. He had a killer mohawk too. I'm glad he is in MLS after not doing much in Germany.
