Here's the next chapter. I told you I would update as fast as possible!
Chapter 3: The First Temple! The Monsters of the Darkness!
"You're right… How do we get inside?" wonders Link.
"Should I cut a way in?" asks Zoro.
While they are still wondering on what to do, a monkey appears out of nowhere and approaches them. "Hey! I see that you have a problem," says the monkey.
"Wow! The monkey is talking!" says Luffy.
"Unbelievable! There are other animals besides me who can talk!" says Chopper.
"Want to get inside this place?" asks the monkey. "I am Kiki the rupee-loving monkey! Pay me 100 rupees and I'll open the door for you!"
"100 rupees! That's too much!" says Link.
"Then you'll never get in there!"
"Is rupee the currency of this world?" asks Robin.
"Yeah…" says Link, taking out his wallet. When he opens it, Nami looks into it and sees several colored crystals.
"Wow! Those are beautiful crystals!" she exclaims.
"But they don't worth too much. Let's see how much I have… Uh oh…"
"What's wrong?" asks Luffy.
"I only got 90 rupees."
"Then you get no help from me!" says Kiki. "I'm the only one who can get up to the roof and press the button there for you to get in!"
"Up on the roof? I can open it!" says Luffy.
"Then I'd like to see you try!"
"Okay then!" Luffy stretches his hand all the way to the rooftop of the palace and then pulls himself up there.
"WHAT THE!" gasps Kiki.
"This is the button, right?" asks Luffy, pointing to the button in front of him. He steps on it and an entrance appears before the others.
"At last, it's opened!" says Sanji.
Luffy jumps back down and says, "Okay, let's go in!"
Suddenly, a loud voice booms in from nowhere and stops them all. "Link, you have finally meet the chosen ones who are destined to help you," says the voice.
"That voice is… Saharalah!" says Link.
"I am speaking to you telepathically," says the voice of Saharalah. "The prophecy indeed has been fulfilled, where helpers will be sent to help you in the quest of defeating Ganon. This proves the power of Ganon to be much stronger than expected."
"I can still send him flying though," says Luffy.
"Now Link, listen carefully," continues the voice. "Only one people can go inside the temple and assist you."
"Why's that?" asks Link.
"Whatever the reason is, only one may go with you at a time, and the first partner you are going to take is the one who feels super."
"That would be me!" says Franky. "I'm the chosen one! Hahaha!"
"Good luck on your quest, Link. Franky, do all you can to help the hero," says Saharalah.
"You can count on me!" says Franky. "I feel super!"
"But I wanna go in and kick the baddies!" says Luffy.
"If that's what Saharalah says, then Franky should come in with me first," says Link.
"Yeah! You go in and I'll wait out here and make sure nobody goes in!" says Usopp.
"You're actually afraid to go in," Zoro says to Usopp.
"Okay, we'll come back out as soon as possible," says Link, and then he goes inside the Dark Palace with Franky.
"I wonder what'll happen if I try to go in?" wonders Luffy. He heads for the entrance, but some strange force pushed him back. "What was that!"
"Looks like there is some supernatural force pushing you out, since you're not the chosen one in there," says Robin.
"Oh well… Then let's eat while we wait for them!"
"But you just had breakfast!" says Sanji.
Meanwhile, Kiki is still trying to recover from the shock of seeing a guy with long arms.

Inside the temple…
"It's not that dark in here as the name implies," says Franky.
"Whatever; we need to be aware of our surroundings," says Link. "I've been to previous dungeons before and there were lots of enemies and traps."
"Bring them on! I'm super enough to take on them!"
They travel forward and instantly come to a closed door without a doorknob. "What kind of a door doesn't have a doorknob?" asks Franky. "How do we get in?"
"I remember…" Link begins looking around. "There should be a switch around here that will open the door." Soon, he finds the switch lying in the corner of the room. "There it is!" Right when he is about to press it, he hears a crashing sound, so he turns around and sees that Franky has punched down the door!
"The door's out of the way!" say Franky.
"Whoa… You're strong…"
They go through the busted door and are immediately confronted with Helmasaurs. "What are these freaks?" asks Franky.
"Whatever they are, they're coming for us!" says Link, getting his sword.
One Helmasaur charges at Link, and he swings his sword at the monster's head, but the sword bounces off the monster's hard helmet. "Whoa! They have protective masks!" The Helmasaur prepares for another attack, and this time Link jumps over it and slashes in the back. "We can take them from behind!"
Franky simply punches another Helmasaur in the head so hard that its helmet cracked and is sent flying across the room. "No hard mask can withstand my real fist of iron!" he says.
"Just how strong are you…?" says Link with a rather shocked look.
-
They advance deeper into the temple until they come across a large treasure chest. "Now that's one big chest," says Franky. "It must contain lots of treasure!"
"I came across these kinds of chests before," says Link. "It contains useful items that will help in the dungeon."
"Let's open it!" Franky runs to the chest and delivers a strong punch, but it didn't do any damage. "Huh? It withstood my iron fist!"
"These chests are protected by strong magic which cannot be opened by force. We need to get a big key to do it."
"Then let's find it fast!"
They continue to move forward and eventually came to a room with several beetle-like creatures with large rubbery shells.
"Now what?" asks Franky.
"Watch out! Their shells can bounce off several kinds of attacks and hitting them physically can result in you getting sent backwards," Link tells him.
"Then I'll get them indirectly!" Franky detaches his hand and fires bullets at the beetles, but to his surprise, the bullets bounce off their shells! "What!"
"Your projectile attack isn't strong enough to pierce through their shell!" says Link. "We can only use sharp things! But the problem is we don't have any at the moment and my boomerang won't hurt them either."
"Then take this for the size!" Franky takes a deep breathe and then shoots out several nails out of his mouth! "Master Nail!" The nails hit the beetles and stab into their shells and kill them.
"Whoa! How did you get those stuffs inside your mouth!" exclaims Link.
"I told you my body is a living weapon."
-
After more advancement, they come into a pitch black room. "Now it's getting dark in here," says Franky.
"Good thing I brought my lamp," says Link, lighting up a lamp. "This should light our way. Be careful though…"
They slowly proceed through the dark hallway, and soon came to a wall.
"Dead end… Let's take the other path," says Link.
They continue moving and soon came to another wall, so they turn and took another path, but they just keep on running into walls.
"Something tells me we're inside a maze…" says Link.
"Argh! I hate these kinds of stuff, especially in the dark!" says Franky. "I'm gonna bust down the wall!" He throws himself at a wall and smashes right through it forcefully.
BANG!
"Good idea…" says Link oddly.
"Hey look what I found!" shouts Franky from the other side. "I found a chest and inside it is a large golden key!" Franky shows Link the key he found.
"Great! That's the big key!" says Link. "Now we can open the big chest and collect the secret weapon inside!"
As they turn to leave, several one-eyed bats appear and begin harassing them.
"Whoa!" Link quickly swings his sword at one of the bats, but misses. He quickly switches to bow and arrow and shoots an arrow at one of the bats and hits it square in the eye.
"Take this! Franky Triangle Jacker!" Franky pulls off his sideburns and throws it at one of the bats. The bat flies to the side to avoid it, but the flying sideburns fly back like a boomerang and hit the bat from behind. "Ha! Bet you didn't see that coming!"
"Watch out!" shouts Link, pointing at a fireball being shot towards them, and they quickly jump to the side to avoid it. The fireball was shot by a small fierce-looking lizard.
"So you want to play with fire? I'll play with you! Fresh Fire!" Franky takes a deep breath and then shoots out a large column fire at the lizard. The lizard also fought back by shooting fire, but Franky's fire is stronger than the lizard's and it overpowered the lizard's fire and burns the lizard to ashes.
Link watches with amazement and says, "I tell you the truth: You are even more bizarre than all these monsters!"
"Yeah, I'm a monster! Fear me!" says Franky.
-
They finally made their way back to the large chest, and Link opens it using the big key they found. Inside the chest is a medium-sized hammer. "You call this a secret weapon?" asks Franky.
"Somehow, I can feel strong power trembling in it," says Link as he wields the hammer. "It should be able to destroy things my sword cannot."
After this, they continue advancing into places they haven't been before. They soon come to a large room with no place to advance any further. "Great… Another dead end!" says Franky.
Link sees a statue on one side of the room and observes it. Then he takes out his bow and shoots an arrow at the eye of the statue. Immediately, the whole place begins shaking and the wall before them slowly slides apart! "Wow! The wall is opening!" exclaims Franky.
"I knew this statue was suspicious!" says Link.
They step through the newly opened way and goes down a set of stairs into another dark room. After lighting up the way using the lamp, they see a mole-like creature in front of them.
"Nya nya! You cannot get pass me!" laughs the creature.
"Oh yeah? Take this!" Franky throws a punch into the creature's face, but it did nothing.
"Ha! Your feeble punches won't hurt me!"
"Argh!"
"Then take this! Magic Hammer!" Link jumps into the air and slams the Magic Hammer down on top of the creature, and pounds it flat into the floor.
SMASH!
"Waaaaaaaa…"
"Now we can pass," says Link.
"Guess this hammer is good for something!" says Franky.
They continue advancing through the dark room and soon encounter several turtles. "They're after us also, right?" asks Franky.
"You bet," says Link. He dashes at a turtle and strikes with his sword, but it did no damage to their shell. "What! It won't work!"
Franky throws a punch at a turtle and sends it flying. "But it works for me!"
"Then let's try this!" Link uses the Magic Hammer on the turtle and smashes its shell and kills it. "I get it now!" Then he slams the hammer onto the floor and creates a mild tremor that knocks all the turtles onto their backs. Link then quickly attacks their exposed underside and kills them all.
"That was a good trick! Now let's go through that suspicious-looking door," says Franky, pointing to a large door.
"I have feeling we're going to have a huge battle coming up next," says Link.
They two go to the door and unlocks it using the big key, and when they step inside…
"Whoa! What on earth is that!" gasps Franky.
"I told you a big battle is coming!" says Link.
Before them stood a gigantic lizard-like monster on all fours and it wears a large metal mask in front its face—King Helmasaur!
The monster lets out a roar and breathes out several fireballs, which they hop to the side to avoid. "This guy looks just like those little masked dudes!" says Franky. "Those masks are nothing compared to my iron fist!" Franky takes off the layer of skin around his hand to reveal metal underneath it, and then he rushes to the monster and throws a powerful punch. "Super Hammer!" His fist impacts with the metal mask and left a small crack! "Ha! Told ya!"
The monster roars angrily and shoots out even more fireballs, and it caught Franky by surprise and scorches him.
"Yeow!"
"Franky! Are you all right?" Link asks him.
"This is nothing at all! I've been through worse!" says Franky.
"We'll have to destroy his mask first," says Link.
The monster swings its long, stretchable tail at them and tries to hit them with the spike on the end of the tail, but misses.
Link takes out the Magic Hammer and runs towards the monster, but the monster quickly swings his tail at Link. Just in time, Link brings up his shield, but the impact sends him flying away. "Ouch!"
"Hey! Take on me, ugly!" Franky runs towards the monster for another attack, but he got hit by the spiked tail when it is swung towards him. "YA!"
"Franky!" shouts Link in distress. The monster turns towards Link and swings its tail at him again. Link swiftly jumps to the side and runs towards the monster. The monster breathes out fireballs at Link, but Link avoids them skillfully and made it closer to the monster, and smashes it hard in the metal mask using the hammer. This left behind an even larger crack on the mask.
"Now's my turn to get back on you!" says Franky. "Super Hammer!" He throws another powerful punch at the metal mask, and finally, the mask can't hold up any longer and cracks apart, revealing the monster's face.
"Now we should be able to fight it much easier," says Link.
"Boy, he's even uglier without the mask," says Franky.
The monster roars angry and loudly, and then begins to take a deep breath. "I have a bad feeling about this…" says Link.
"Then it's about time I use my most devastating move!" says Franky. "You better get behind me!"
"What are you going to do?"
"Just get behind me!" Franky then places his arms together and a small tube appears in between them and connects them together. Then he opens his palms wide and a hole appears on each of his palms. "Get ready for the super attack!"
"Are you going to shoot out fire?" asks Link.
"No fire, but only a little breeze!"
The monster then opens its mouth and unleashes the largest fireball it has ever shot out.
"Oh no! It's coming!" cries Link.
"70mm 1.5 max Cola Power! Coup de Vent!" Franky then shoots out a humongous and super powerful blast of wind. The wind pushes the fire back towards King Helmasaur and not only scorches it, but also sends the monster itself flying and crashing to the back of the room.
CRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASH!
"HOLY GOD!" exclaims Link.
King Helmasaur lies in the back of the room and on the floor, but still twitching a bit. Franky's hair drops down limp to his face and he becomes tired. "Phew… I used up every last bit of cola I have…"
"Now to finish him off!" Link runs to King Helmasaur and stabs the Master Sword right into the monster's skull.
King Helmasaur roars his last and then drops down limp and stops breathing. Link falls onto the floor and says, "Phew… It's over…"
"Glad to hear that…" says Franky.
Suddenly, the room begins glowing and it blinds them.
"Whoa! Another monster is coming!"
When the glowing finally dies down, they see a large crystal floating in midair, and a beautiful woman can be seen inside it.
"What's that?"
"It's one of the maidens!" exclaims Link.
TO BE CONTINUED…
That first dungeon is complete! I sure hope you enjoyed this chapter!
