Dark refused to give in, using quick footwork to try and keep up with the creature. No one was going to defeat him again. He had decided that long ago. The ghoul before him was no different. He just needed to think of a way to make his attacks connect.
Pulling out his boomerang, Dark tossed it at the ghoul hoping to stun him. The forward strike missed so Dark darted to the side, adjusting his angle in hopes that the boomerang would connect when it tried to return to him.

The creature was smarter than it looked. It jumped up onto a wall, and rebounded on another one, then went straight for Dark, the boomerang missing entirely.
Or so was thought.
It grazed the monster's shoulder when it returned, but that didn't stop the ghoul's charge. The undead felt no pain.

"Hold still and die, you stupid creature!" Dark growled in frustration as he caught his boomerang and put it away.
Dark saw the ghoul charge and decided to meet him head-on. He charged as well, swinging his sword in a flury of strikes, hoping that at least one of them would connect with the undead creature.

They all connected, but that didn't mean that stopped the creature. It slashed outward with it's talons, followed by intense biting. Was that all the creature could muster? Speed, and beastial strikes?
Well, what was to be expected from the undead? They didn't have the intelligence of living beings, except for undead that were higher up the ladder.

Intense pain shot through Dark as he felt one of the bites sink into the flesh of his left shoulder. With a howl of rage, Dark swung his dark sword with all his might at the undead monster. The blade cackled with his new powers as it lashed out at the ghoulish creature.

The power grew, and finally ended up in a wide, thick arc, fully severing the ghoul into pieces. The pieces hit the floor with a sickening splat, then puffed into black smoke.
Dreadwing was applauding, "There was the power. You can do whatever you want with it. All you have to do is think, and let it come to you."

Dark grunted with satisfaction. It would still take a little time to get use to, but he could put this power to good use. He wasn't sure if it would be enough to defeat Link, but he was eager to put it to the test.
How to best go about it, though. That was the question. Dark had no idea what had happened to Link since their last encounter. As a matter of fact, he had not seen any of the world outside the Water Temple since their encounter. Dark decided that he would have to do some exploring in Hyrule before he could plan his next move.

As if she read his mind, she said, "I can tell you haven't had an outside look of the world. I can read it on your face. Go ahead and explore. Get to know your terrain. If so, then you'll have a great advantage over your enemies."
She absently made a shooing motion with a clawed hand, then vanished the same way she showed up.

With a wicked grin, Dark gave the air a slash, using his sword to cut open a dark portal. He stepped inside, and it vanished.
((I think that wraps up this story arc. Thanks for role playing with me on this!))
