Hey everybody! How are you doing? Sorry this came so late - I had a whole bunch of work to do, and I got sick. But it's finally done! It's going to get revisions sooner or later. Chapter 1 is getting revisions as we speak.
I do not own Legend of Zelda. Or these characters.
Chapter 2:
Kalle Demos stealthily walked the dim hallways of Forsaken Fortress. He was aware of his surroundings, making sure not to be seen by the guards. After making sure the storage room was empty and secure, he ducked in and hid behind the nearest object. He sighed. Looking for this place is harder than I thought. And it doesn't help that I have to keep myself as hidden as possible right now.
He looked cautiously over the object, checking if he was in the clear. Again he continued, going down towards the lower parts of the Fortress. According to Gohdan, since the Tower of Hera is the highest point in Hyrule, the tower would be connected somehow to Forsaken Fortress. And, since the Tower of Hera is connected, it wouldn't be flooded. However, Gohdan said that he had to find the way there. "Ganon does not trust me as much as you. He would become very suspicious if he found me sneaking around. Look for a room with a pit and a stairwell."
Kalle Demos shook himself out of his thoughts and continued on his way. Then he felt it.
Step - step - step. Step - step - step.
That step pattern...he knew it anywhere.
Step - step - step. Step - step - step.
Turning around frantically, he saw an object on his left. Then, an idea suddenly popped into his head.
Step - step - step. Step - step - step.
Let's hope this works.
"AH -HA!" a squeaky voice called.
A lady with long blond hair busted into the room. She wore a tan dress with multiple black patterns. It ended off as a loose skirt right before the knees. She herself was a fully developed teen, standing about 5'5". Her face was a bit thin, and she had a slightly long nose. Her eyes were a cobalt blue.
"There's nothing here Molgera." said a baritone voice
Molgera looked around the place before pouting. "Hmph! I was sure someone was here. Oh well. Let's go Jahalla"
Unlike the others, Jahalla did not have a normal human form, since he could not go into sunlight. He resembled a genie with his large, shadowy, rotund body. Instead of legs, he had a wispy trail. He wore a red vest with strange blue mark on each side. His hair (if he had any) was under a black hood, and he still wore the creepy mask on his face. A single, glowing lantern hanged at his side.
"I'm right behind you," Jahalla said, before giving one of the barrels a quick glance.
"...What are you looking at?"
"…Nothing. Let's go."
After a few moments, complete silence filled the hallway. Then, a shuffling and CLAK! A barrel was thrown onto the floor. Kalle Demos stood where the barrel was initially. He dusted himself off; I see why the Hero of Wind used barrels. He sat back down on the cold, stone floor. I'll have to thank Jahalla later. He really saved me from Molgera... he shivered at the thought of the woman.
Kalle looked around the now dead silent hallway. It was much different than most of Forsaken Fortress. The hallway walls were dim black, but the places lit by the strange lights had a tint of purple. The floor was made of smooth, dark blue stone - the same as the fortress. The place had a smell simillar to wet paper. Kalle suddenly hugged his cloak closer. It's freezing in here! He thought as he continued shivering, hoping to become a bit warmer.
After 5 minutes of constant shivering, the parasite finally decided to get going. His footsteps echoed loudly on the stone, his silhouette warping on the walls as he traversed the halls. The hallway was long, and constant - no evidence of age anywhere. Everything looked as if it was just created.
I'm bored...Kalle thought, something better happen...
Luckily for Kalle, the hallway ended into an empty room. The room was very strange - in between some of the room's perimeter and center, the floor was gone. A stairwell going down was located on his immediate right, and the floor on both the platform and the actual room was cracked blue stone. Although there wasn't a visible light source, the room was perfectly lit. Kalle gave another look around, "Ok...this place seems to fit Gohdan's description - I guess this is the top of the Tower of Hera. Now I just need to find the -"
"KAL - KUN!"
I think we all know who this is.
