So yeah! Apparently I've lost the full fic file? But I still had this chapter sitting on google docs? I figured since the comic is not going to be made anymore, I might as well at least give you guys the rest of the actual story in it's original layout. Unbeta'd I just ran a quick spellcheck. Some events and dialogue would've been different in the comic especially since some events of the previous chapters were different in the comic, but again, not doing that anymore, so w/e enjoy?

Ch4

Blue sneezed as he tried to wipe his face off. "Ugh! I hate plants!" He sneezed again. "There's pollen EVERYWHERE!"

"Stop complaining," Vio rolled his eyes, a soft tint of pink on his cheeks. Blue looked good in human clothing, and he would continue to say that no matter what. "Besides, it's better to remain in your Hylian form, less conspicuous than a giant drago pounding around." They had just exited the tunnel into the Kokiri forest moments before.

Blue grumbled some more and tugged at the red tunic he was currently sporting. "But I hate red! Why can't I just go around like normal? At least in the woods? It's not like any hunters will be out in the lost woods! And I bet the Kokiri wouldn't mind!"

"As I said," Vio had his eyes closed as he walked up the stairs, "Stop. Complaining." Opening his eyes he turned them towards Blue, "It's your fault we're in this to begin with." His expression was blank as he turned back around and finished walking up the steps, reaching the forest. "Kidnapping me at first, letting me leave, and then kidnapping me in the middle of Castle Town." Sighing he rubbed the bridge of his nose, mumbling beneath his breath. "Could've just said 'No Vio, I don't want you to leave', but Nooo, you had to let me leave and then come to my home roaring drunk, literally! And kidnap me that way."

Blue rolled his eyes. "You're just not gonna let that go are you?" The drago snorted and walked out into the woods looking around. "SO! Mr. Know-it-all. Any plans on getting through the forest? It's not called the lost woods for nothing."

Vio sighed and pointed forward. "Just go forward until we get somewhere, I'd say."

"You... you're kidding right? Even I know that's a bad idea!" Blue snapped clenching his fists.

"Got a better idea?" Vio smirked.

"Uh.." Blue bit his lip and looked around, he took a few steps out then looked around again. "A... a fairy?" He suggested shrugging.

"See a fairy in the area?" Vi gave him a raised eyebrow, "So... how do you propose we find one?"

Blue growled and turned on Vio. "Oh yeah it's just SO easy to poke holes in my plans! But what have YOU come up with?!" He threw his hands in the air. "Okay! I know!" Blue picked up a stick off the ground and threw it in the air, staring at it for a moment. "I'm going this way!" He shouted pointing the direction the stick fell and marching off.

"Wrong way~" Vio hummed, following after Blue.

"How would you know?!" Blue snapped refusing to look back at Vio and continuing forward until he came to another intersection. He picked up another stick and repeated his stunt from earlier.

"I just do~" Vio continued to follow Blue from behind, chuckling.

Blue's eye twitched and you could practically see a vein popping out of his head as he continued to walk and throw sticks.

Vio leaned over, glancing at the stick, "Well would you look at that, the first time you got it right~." He couldn't help teasing the blond, mainly because it was to hilarious to watch his reactions to such things.

Blue's eye twitched again and he rounded on Vio, in his anger changing back to his drago form, the red tunic shredding as he did so. "If you say one more word! So help me Goddesses I WILL EAT YOU!" He roared butting his head against Vio's right before a loud gasp and a shout was heard taking the drago and the hylian's attentions off each other.

"WOAH! Are you a REAL dragon?!" A small boy with ginger hair asked looking a bit surprised.

Looking past Blue, Vio smiled at the ginger, "I would answer that question, however it would appear I'm going to be eaten for speaking."

Blue growled and turned around to face the kid shooting Vio a dirty look and whacking him on the head with his tail. "I'm not a Dragon, I'm a Draconian Dragos." He snorted before eyeing the boy suspiciously. "And what are you doing here kid? Don't you know these are the lost woods?"

"Of course I know!" The ginger snapped, crossing his arms, "Don't you know?! You're talking to a the leader of the Kokiri, the great and mighty Mido!"

Vio rubbed his head from where Blue whacked it, feeling the bump on his temple. "I'm Vi and the Draconian is Blue, good to meet you, Mido."

"Yeah, well..." Mido shifted on his feet, "W-well, what are you two doing out here in the first place? Don't you big ol' adults know it's better to not go into the lost woods?!"

"Really? I never would have guess!" Blue snapped. "Look unless you can get us out of here we don't have the time to be playing babysitter. One hylian is enough." Blue shot a glare at Vio

"He's not a Hylian, Blue." Vio sighed, "He's a-"

"-Kokiri!" Mido glared, "And I don't know if I want to help people who insult me!" Turning he walked the way the stick was pointed and through a tunnel away from the two.

"Well, look what you've done... again." Vio ran a hand over his face, "This is why I try to avoid social conflicts with other races."

"Hey! He went that way! Why can't we just follow him?!" Blue snapped starting to do just that.

"Because we don't know if he's leading us into a trap." Vio rolled his eyes and followed after Blue. Someone had to keep that scaley hide intact, and it sure wasn't going to be the owner.

Mido paused at the next tunnel, turning to his left then his right, tilting his head to listen and then going to the left, stopping just at the entrance before coming out and going to the right.

Blue tilted his head to the side, curious. "What do you think he's doing?" He asked as he continued to follow Mido.

Vio rolled his eyes, "You could just ask him you know."

Mido huffed, ears twitching as he heard the two following behind him. 'Okay, it was... right, left, left, right, forward, left... and then you'd get back to the Kokiri village. If the witches hadn't changed it again…'

Vio's ears twitched, the soft echo of music... 'what was it his book said... Follow the music to find your way to the sacred meadow. Was the Kokiri following the music to the sacred meadow?'

"Hey kid!" Blue shouted disrupting both boys train of thought. "What are you doing?"

Vio jerked at the shout, being right next to Blue, Mido literally jumping into the air giving off a small shriek.

After a few seconds of silence, Mido looked to his left again, a look of irritation crossing his face. The music had switched again, just as he was sure he was going the right way! "Thanks a lot, idiot!" Mido yelled back, "You're getting me lost!"

Vio blinked. Hadn't the music been coming from the left side? "Hey, what's... wrong with the forest?"

Mido cursed a few more times at Blue and stomped his feet like a kid throwing a tantrum, which really, he was. "Your stupid dragon just got me lost that's what! I was almost back to the village! Then he goes yelling everywhere and now those no good witches have changed the forest again!"

"First of all," Vio leaned against Blue's side, "I'm the only one allowed to call him stupid, secondly, what about these witches?" Vio's face remained relaxed, watching the brat storm around, "They turned the forest around... explain, how is it possible to change a forest?"

"The lost woods are magic! Duh!" Mido scoffed and crossed his arms tapping his foot irritatedly. "Those stupid Poe Sister got bored and now they're messing with the flow of the forest's magic! Thanks to you they've rearranged it all again!"

"And who says they wouldn't of done that anyway," Vio stated, "You're a very smart Kokiri and you understand this place better than us silly strangers ever could." He gave a side-smile, completely relaxed, "Do you know where we could find a these Poe Sisters? Perhaps we could help you."

He needed Blue to just stay silent for a little bit... even if he didn't appreciate or want to help the kid, if he just kept quiet... Vio could find a way out of here and maybe even get some new information on the forest area.

Mido humphed. "As if a couple adults could do anything!"

"Hey!" Blue growled at the Kokiri. He might not want to help the kid but Vio offered and the kid practically threw it in their faces.

"Oh sorry! One adult, and one overgrown lizard!"

Blue eye twitched before he turned to attack Mido. "That's it! You're dinner kid!"

Vio slid in front of Blue, glaring at him. "Blue. Stop." Ice blue eyes narrowed, daring Blue to go against him. At the moment, Mido was their best bet of getting out of this damn forest, and if Blue made one more outburst... "Back, down." Let me handle this.

Blue grit his teeth and growled angrily but after a few minutes he finally backed down. Causing Mido to laugh. "He's like a big dog!" Which got Blue fired up yet again causing Vio to have to step in more, all in all making a small ache start to form in the Hylians head.

Vio turned to Mido and knelt down to be eye-to-eye level. "Mido, unless you want me to let my friend here eat you, I would suggest you simply answer my questions, alright?" He smiled friendly after the threat, as if nothing were wrong. "Do you understand?"

Mido's eyes widened and he glanced at the angry blue before back to the smiling Vio. "They're in the forest temple ruins!"

"And how do we get there?" Vio asked, taking his time to let Blue calm down some. "Do we follow the music still or is there a specific path we have to follow since the witches seem to be in control of the forest."

Mido scratched his head. "Well they change the forest arrangement, but Saria's always in the sacred meadow playing her ocarina, if you followed the sound of it you'd probably find her and the temple too." Mido shrugged. "The Kokiri village, where I'm trying to go, is in the opposite direction, but I guess there's no getting there until those stupid witches are done."

"Could you lead us or shall Blue and I find our own way?" Vio's ears twitched as he could have sworn he heard Blue mutter something along the lines of the second option. Choosing to ignore it, Vio shifted to stand.

"I'll take you!" Mido said determined. "No way would I let a couple adults near Saria without me for protection!"

"Oh yeah I bet she feels so safe." Blue muttered and rolled his eyes.

"Blue," Vio scolded, "Of course she does, after all, he's much stronger than he appears." Turning to Blue he smirked, "After all, not just ianyone/i becomes the leader of the Kokiri, show some respect." Of course, this blatant use of sarcasm would, if Vio was lucky, go straight over Mido's head, but perhaps follow through with jumping over Blue's as well. Instead of continuing on, however, Vio jumped up Blue's back, resting there comfortably. "We'll follow where you lead us, Mido."

"Right!" Mido stood to attention. "Follow me!" He shouted before running off following the trail of music which was, admittedly much easier then trying to follow it in reverse to the village.

Blue growled at Vio. "Oh sure, just make yourself right at home." He whacked vio on the head with his tail again before following after Mido.

"Shut up," Vio mumbled quietly, "I got the kid to lead us where to go without letting anyone getting eaten." Chuckling under his breath, he watched the Kokiri running off in front of them. "Though, I guess this'd be my fault, if I'd just said we needed to follow the music..."

Blue growled lowly. "I swear to you Vio. I will eat him. And then I will eat you for dessert."

"Mhmm~ And I'm feeling a bit peckish myself," Vio trailed a finger down one of Blue's scales, smirking to himself, "Perhaps some Drago burgers maybe~?" He was getting tired of being threatened to be eaten when they both knew he would do no such thing. Glancing up, Mido had stopped in front of a trunk, taking a gulp before going in.

Blue shuddered and the touch. "D-don't do that!" He snapped at vio almost missing the comment from the other. "...hey! What do you MEAN Drago burger?!"

"Hnn?" Vio blinked at the sudden shudder, "Well, I'm getting tired of you threatening to eat me all the time, it's been long enough that you could have done so several times now and I'm quite sure you won't." Running his finger along the scales again lightly, rubbing the smooth surface with his thumb.

"Mmm~" Blue shuddered again, if he were in hylian for he would be blushing. But it just felt... nice. No one had ever touched him like that. So gentle and practically teasing, making him want more. "Who said I wasn't going to? Maybe I'm just not hungry yet."

Mido piped up, voice loud, "If you two will stop talking now! We're here!" Vio jerked his hand back, a flush to his cheeks though he wasn't... quite sure why. Pointing over the pillars and to the stairs Mido huffed at the two of them. "Now you adults ready to meet Saria? You better be nice to her!"

"We'll be fine! We're not going to do anything to your little girl-friends kid." Blue growled out shaking himself off from the previous touches.

Vio sighed, rubbing at his hand, calming down some. "We won't harm her."

Mido glared at Blue before turning and walking up the steps, coming out at top where a green-haired girl sat, ocarina between her fingers, a song twirling away from her fingers moving back and forth from the holes. "Saria! These two adults are weird!"

Vio scoffed.

Blue growled at Mido as Saria looked up pulling the ocarina away from her lips. "Oh? A drago!" He hopped off her stump and rushed forward between Mido and Blue as if to protect him. "What do you want here?!"

Vio tilted and waved from Blue's back, "And Hylian, hello."

"Oh!" Saria relaxed, seeing Vio sitting on Blue's back. "Well hello you two." She giggled. "I'm saria." She curtsied. "Sorry for my first reaction. I've never met a dragos before." She smiled at Blue.

Jumping from Blue's back, Vio stumbled a bit, catching himself awkwardly. "Eh, I'm Vio and this here is Blue," Giving a smile he straightened a bit and bowed back, "No worries about that, it's an understandable reaction." Glancing to Blue he looked back, "Anyway, we heard you were having problems with your... Poe Sisters, something about rearranging the forest?"

Blue gave Vio a slightly worried look when he stumbled and his tail swished as if ready to grab the hylian if he fell.

"Ahh yes, the Poe Sisters." Saria sighed heavily before turning around and pointing to a raised platform that appeared to have ha steps to it at some point. "That is the forest temple. Long ago, the hero of time entered that very same temple and defeated the sisters and a phantom shadow of the dark lord Ganon, thus freeing the forest of evil." She turned back to face blue and vio. "Now however, it seems the poe sisters have returned, and with no one able to stop them, they've begun messing with the magic of the lost woods. If it were not for playing my ocarina you would never have escaped them. Not even kokiri of the fairies can find their way anymore."

Vio's batted away Blue's tail. He was fine, just because jumping off his back made him stumble didn't mean anything. "I see..." He remembered the stories he read about the hero, and he did remember something along the lines of the Poe sisters. "He defeated them with a bow, correct?" Tapping his chin, he tried to remember more clearly of what happened. Though the dungeons themselves were always sketchy in detail, how and what the enemies were defeated with always seemed pretty detailed. "By going through temple he awakened the Sage of Forest, earning the medallion and gained the Fairy's Bow, right?" He was too busy thinking to notice a look of surprise flash across Saria's face.

"You are well versed in history." Saria nodded. "The fairy's bow was returned to the temple after the hero defeated the dark lord. I can offer you a quiver of arrows, but the bow itself will have to be found within."

Blue tilted his head finally speaking up. "That hero sure did a lot huh?" Being dragos he hadn't been exposed to the history lessons like Vio, but he certainly knew a little from the books he had read.

"He did much more than that," Vio nodded in agreement, "As for the explanation why I know so much, where I lived and a distinct love for History." Looking to Saria he gave her a kind smile, "And that would be very much appreciated, a quiver of arrows that is."

She looked at him funny as if trying to figure out who he was but nodded and ran to receive the quiver from behind her stump. "There are only 30 arrows here, so make them count." she said as she handed them to Vio.

"No worries," Vio took the quiver, "I will." Turning to Blue his smile turned into a teasing smirk, "Think you can take us over to that temple, Blue?"

"I could take us all the way to the damn Poes!" Blue snapped flaring out his wings and grabbing Vio with his tail, tossing him on his back.

Vio flinched, and chuckled lightly at the aggressiveness, "Well there you have it, we'll be back once we've put the sisters back in their lace," Shifting to sit more comfortably, "Good to meet you, Saria, Mido."

"Good luck... Vio." Saria said smiling. "An you too Blue."

Blue laughed obnoxiously. "As if I need luck." He stated before flying up to the entrance and through the large door.

Vio picked an arrow from the quiver, looking at it closely before nodding, sliding it back in. Good quality arrows. Which somewhat surprised him, what would Kokiri need arrows for without a bow? Shrugging he looked up at the temple. "Well... looks like both you and I will ha-" Vio paused, jumping off before finishing his thought, "have to be Hylian."

Blue shot Vio a glare. "Seriously? Again?! What's wrong with this form?" he griped as he reluctantly shifted back to hylian form.

"Size, mainly," Vio stated simply, "unless you want to be stuck out here, which I don't mind going in alone, just thought you may want to tag along." Twirling an arrow between his fingers, he looked around the front before walking up and opening the door sticking at the entrance with a sigh, "Bubbles..." he mumbled irritably.

"Oh no! you're not going in THERE alone! remember what happened at dodongos cavern? Uh-uh I'm coming with you!" Blue snapped and jerked the door open walking through and straight into the awaiting bubble both stunning it and injuring himself.

Vio flinched as he rushed in, grabbing Blue by the shoulders, ducking under the Bubble and pulled him through the next door, slamming it behind him and leaning against it. "goddesses... why Bubbles... why..." His face had paled considerably, legs wobbly as he slid to the ground.

Blue pouted rubbing at the sore spot he now had before he noticed Vio. "Hey... Are you okay?" she stood in front of Vio and leaned against him, his naked body pressing against Vio's clothes. "What's wrong with Bubbles?"

Vio shuddered, "Un...dead..." The thought of skeletons moving about on their own... coming after you with that wicked laughter of theirs... Vio shut his eyes even though he could feel Blue hovering over him. Okay... okay... calm down. He was shivering when he slowly opened his eyes, looking up at Blue, face somewhat reminiscent of a kicked puppy.

"Vio?" The Dragos asked actually quiet for one of his very rare occasions. "Are you okay?" Blue repeated tilting his head to the side.

"N-not good... w-with skeletons..." Vio whispered, leaning back against the door. Not good was an understatement. He could take spiders better than he could take skeletons. And spiders were... He shuddered again, closing his eyes. He could deal with them, but... terrible... terrible...

Blue sighed. "Well, i guess I'll get the bubbles then. Anything ELSE I should know about?" Blue questioned not wanting to find out during a pinch that vio was afraid of deku scrubs or something too.

Vio looked at Blue, biting his lip. Should he really say... "...spiders..." he muttered.

"Spiders?" Blue tilted his head. Well that wasn't so bad, he'd heard a lot of people were afraid of spider. "Well it's not like we're going to run into any spiders here." Blue smirked and in a spur of the moment he leaned forward and gave Vio a small peck on the lips. "Come on, I'll deal with the bubbles, you find that bow."

Vio flushed at the peck on the lips. That was unnecessary... Pushing himself off the wall, he nodded, looking around the main room. "Well... The dungeons outlines were never clear in my books. Lost in translation as they would say..." Turning to the right, he looked up at the closed eye and a cropping of a ledge with stairs leading up it. "I'd say we go up the middle one first, it looks as if it'd be the first thing a person would be supposed to go through."

Blue nodded and pulled away from Vio. "Lead the way oh mighty Brains-a-lot"

"Brains - a - lot? Really Blue?" Vio's eye twitched. "That's like me calling you buff idiot."

Blue scoffed. "Oh whatever, just come on."

"Actually... I may stick with that one." Vio walked in front of Blue, clambering up the steps to the area across the room. "Nah, I can think of much better insults."

Blue shot a glare. "Are you going to stand there thinking up insults for me all day?" He grumbled and peeked around the door. Just a few bubbles. "I'll take care of this!" He snatched an arrow from Vio and went through the door stabbing each skull a few times with the arrow head before they finally poofed. "All clear!" Blue shouted as he came back out, some blisters now visible on his hands.

"Well..." Vio rolled his eyes before opening the door barely, peeking in and going inside. Walking forward he opened up the door at the end of the hallway barely. It didn't look like there were any monsters in here... Glancing up at the ceiling than looking back to the floor. The only thing in the room was a medium sized chest in the middle of the room.

Blue followed Vio through the door. "So, we get treasure? Sweet."

"Yeah... I suppose..." Vio walked forward, opening the chest and staring at it's contents... well... if it had any. "It's..." Vio's face contorted into a look of confusion, "It's..."

"Empty." Blue stated his jaw dropping for a moment. "Well that's just GREAT! this place better not be full of a bunch of empty chests! because if it is-!"

Entering the umpteenth room, Vio's looked like he would blow a gasket. "I swear, this place is more of a bitch than my sister is!" Looking to Blue, "And that's saying a lot." Running a hand through his hair, Vio closed his eyes and re-opened them to look at the empty room.

"What is this?!" Blue snapped already irritated beyond belief from all the previous rooms. "a DEAD END!? WHAT THE HELL?!" he stormed into the room unable to believe what he was seeing.

Vio followed behind Blue, having given up on trying to lead them through this temple as he closed his eyes, a headache pounding. His head hurt more than when his sister tried to get him involved in sexual activities with random people. A sudden rumbling and a low cackle echoed through the room, doors clicking and activating as bars slid up, blocking the exit.

Vio jerked backward, eyes wide as he was already quite paranoid to be met. Eye-to-eye with a stalfos. He froze for only a second before a blood curdling scream lept from his lips, stumbling backwards, heel slamming into something as he cried out in alarm, falling over on his back, wincing at the pain now reverberating through his skull from hitting the floor.

"VIO?!" Blue shouted eyes wide before he turned to face the Stalfos. "Oh great... I got-OOMPH!" Blue grunted as the stalfos jump towards him and shield bashed him right in the gut, knocking him onto the floor before going after Vio again.

Vio scrambled to his feet, running forward and slamming his back into a wall, dodging under a swing the stalfos sent at him. "Blue?!" Vio yelled, worry etching into his voice as he kept trying to avoid the wild and deadly accurate swings. "B-BLUE!" The sword nicked his arm, catching it just at right the angle to get a scratch to appear, cutting into the cloth of his tunic.

Blue's eyes snapped open and without a second thought he shifted into his dragos form, glad that the room was big enough for him, before he lunged at the Stalfos. It jumped out of the way an he hit the floor... hard. A loud rumble was heard and the room started to shake, before the center collapsed down into the room below.

Vio's eyes widened in horror, "BLUE!" Before instantly he was forced back into his own situation. Now with the lack of room, the Stalfos was creeping up to him. Vio whimpered backing up in slow steps.

Blue groaned as he got up from the rubble shaking his head. "Vio?"

"B-Blue?" Vio yelled again, still trying to back away from the approaching stalfos.

Just as the voice came down however two skeletons slid up from the ground, red eyes glowing as the slowly circled the Dragos, swords drawn.

The stalfos let out a shriek as it jumped forward sword raised high.

Meanwhile, Blue roared as the Stalfos approached him. No way was he going to leave Vi alone with that Stalfos! "COME AT ME!"

So they did. Both at once.

They'd learned before from the previous killer the trick to killing was to attack in a team, unlike before where they took turns. So, they jumped, slicing through the air to cut at the Blue Draconian's scales together, not flinching at hide-nor-hair of that beast.

Blue roared as their swords hit, his scales barely withstanding the blow, his tail swept around and knocked them back and he lunged at one of them using his claws to tear the bones apart.

One of the skeletons fell to the ground crumbling to pieces, but still remaining partially in tact as the other one continued to lay a blow against Blue.

Blue blocked the swing with his wings then swatting the stalfos legs with his tail knocking it off its feet. He prepared to attack this one but had forgotten about the remains of the first and stumbled as it caught one of his legs.

A shuffling of bones and the first stalfos slowly began to rise back upward, taking its stance once again, the second stalfos charging Blue once again.

Vio tripped backwards, wincing. "B-Blue! A little help here!"

"KINDA BUSY!" Blue shouted back right before the stalfos got to him. With another swing he whacked the damaged one back again and bit into the other tearing its torso from the rest of its body before pouncing and crushing its head.

Falling apart, they slowly dissolved into purple dust and a loud shing rang out, a chest slowly appearing on the opposite end in the chamber Vio was stuck in with the stalfos. Vio's eyes widened as the stalfos rose it's sword above his head...

Another roar sounded and Blue flew up from below bashing into the stalfos' side knocking it away from Vio.

Vio was panting, pupils dilated as he stared at the broken bones, bubbling and dissipating beneath Blue's claws. His hands were shaking, having fallen backwards before while tripping he just sat there, unsure of his legs and his voice.

Blue heaved a sigh. "It just had to be Stalfos..." He shook his head then turned to Vio. "You okay?

Vio gave him a look that said 'what do you think?!' eyes wide as his breathing was forced to slow down from his lungs refusing to pump that much air into them that quickly.

Blue scoffed but instead of saying more, he went to Vio's side and curled his body around the hylian as best he could in the cramped space. "Just calm down. They're gone now."

Vio wrapped his arms around Blue's neck, holding on tightly, eyes clenching closed. Blue was right... what was he doing acting all fucking scared? What was he, some woman? His mind then went to point out the size difference and the probability that he would be... His face flushed an odd shade between crimson and green as his eyes snapped open. Swallowing hard he breathed once more, calming down to the best of his possibility.

Blue noticed the change in the color of Vio's face, but he assumed it was because of the stalfos. He sighed and licked the side of Vio's face, trying to distract the hylian. "Come on. How about we see the empty box we just faced stalfos for?"

Vio shuddered slightly at the tongue, but otherwise ignored it. "Y-yeah..." Trying to shake the previous thoughts from his head, he used Blue to help him stand up. A bit wobbly, he was otherwise alright and he kneeled down in front of the chest, flipping the lid to notice...

"Hey! It's not empty!"

"What?!" Blue shoved his head in Vio's way so he could see before his face changed from disbelief to excitement. "FINALLY!"

Pushing Blue back out of the way, Vio grabbed the bow from the chest, pulling it out carefully. It was beautifully crafted for such an old item. Pulling back the string, he tested the resistance, a bit surprise at the fluidity of the movement. Perhaps fifty-sixty pound pull, slowly letting the string back, he looked at it happily. "Finally indeed, it's in perfect condition to boot."

"Well it is the Fairy bow. It's probably protected by magic." Blue answered returning to his hylian form as he couldn't get through the doors otherwise. "Now let's go find us some Poes!"

"Fairy bow or not," Vi said with a smile, holding onto the bow as he followed Blue, "I could take a horse down with this."

Blue's eyes slowly slid to the side to stare at vio his head not moving. "Are you insinuating something?" He was about the size of a horse.

Vio blinked and looked at Blue in surprise. Oops, he'd forgotten about Blue... "Nothing at all, for a fairy bow the pull is at about fifty four, fifty five pounds giving me enough force to be able to kill a horse. That's all I was implying."

Blue gave Vio a suspicious glare but let it go. "So where do we look first?"

A soft crackling came from outside the door. "I would suggest we follow the maniacal cackling." Vio suggested, chuckling. "If I wanted to kill you earlier, Blue. Why wouldn't I have just used a bomb?"

Blue's eyes widened and he took a few steps away from Vio. 'Note to self, watch out for armed Vio...' "uh.. yeah.. cackling... so.. how many poe sisters are there?"

Vio glanced back, looking at Blue with a raised eyebrow, "Stop acting like I'm about to butcher you, and there's four in total. Probably all in different sections of this temple." Seriously, he would have done so earlier if he'd meant to kill the draconian.

"Okay... so we just find them and you shoot them with the arrows?" That just sounded far too simple for what they had experienced already in the temple.

"Basically," Vio said with a shrug, "I'd expect there to be a couple of puzzles and tricks to finding them, but other than that..." Opening the door another soft cackle could be heard, a fading red poe sister sliding up and fading.

"...was that one?" Blue asked dumbly.

"No, that was simply a poe of discolored size and shape that gives of a insane laughter." Vio rolled his eyes as he slid an arrow out from his pouch, notching it, and turning the feather upright as he walked into the room. "Of course it was."

"Know-it-all." Blue grumbled under his breath as he followed Vio into the room. The laughter continued coming from different directions

Closing his eyes Vio breathed, drawing the string back as he held up the bow, ears twitching as he whirled around, arrow whizzing right behind Blue's ear, just missing.

"GAH!" Blue froze eyes wide for a moment before he turned on Vio. "I KNEW IT! YOU'RE TRYING TO KILL ME! THAT WHY YOU'RE AGREEING TO DO ALL THESE STUPID ERRANDS ISN'T IT?! SO YOU CAN GET THE WEAPONS!"

Opening his eyes slowly a shriek shredded through Blue's testimony as a red poe with an arrow sticking through it's body slowly disintegrated, fire burning the arrow as it disappeared, a small flame lighting up a torch to the side. "I believe I just saved your life." He said calmly, brushing off his tunic, completely ignoring the statement. "Once, four more times to go and I'll be even with you."

Blue looked back and forth between Vio and the now lit lantern before scoffing. "Just luck." But the dragos hung his head and didn't speak again until they had located the next Poe.

The next poe chamber was rather close, only a few more doors that were opened and an insane cackling filled their ears, Vio wincing at the sudden outburst, having gotten used to the silence. Reaching for an arrow, he slowly pulled one out, the soft sound of notching the arrow the only thing heard afterward. Eyes narrowing Vio looked around warily.

"...so where is it?" Blue asked breaking the silence.

Vio pulled the string back, ears twitching slightly as he stayed silent. Another roar of laughter and Vio shifted his footing, sliding in a ninety degrees angle, shooting as his arrow hit the wall and he cursed, going for another one. "Not sure..." trying to pinpoint on sound alone made it difficult, he'd been close on that last arrow, if he'd just aimed a bit lower he might have...

"Uh.. Vio." Blue said nervously. "Viiioooo."

Vio's ears twitched again as he drew back his arrow. Where was it... a sudden breeze sent a shiver up his spine as his eyes widened. Twirling around, his arrow pointed directly towards Blue as the Poe disappeared, cackling.

Blues eyes widened as he saw the arrow pointed directly at his uncovered chest, and let out a small meep, lifting his hands up in surrender. "N-never mind..."

Vio closed his eyes, lowering the bow so the arrow was pointed to the floor. A cackle and the poe appeared besides Blue, giving a loud sound besides Blue's ear before disappearing again as Vio snapped the bow back up aiming to Blue's left shoulder before turning it around and releasing the arrow, a loud crack being heard as it split the one in the wall. "Come out already!"

The Poe simply cackled louder. And blue couldn't help making a comment. "Why would it come out? You're trigger happy. I kinda wish I could hide too."

"Third arrow, Blue." Vio breathed, closing his eyes at the cackling. "So unless you can do a better job, don't make fun of my shooting." Next time he wouldn't miss damnit...

Blue snorted and crossed his arms, just as a loud cackling sounded again, the Poe in question appearing literally on the drago's face.

Vio smirked, drawing the arrow quickly as he released, the arrow protruding the front of the green poe sister, pointed tip almost touching the Draconian's nose. "I guess trigger happy is a good word, after all."

Blue just gulped as he stared at the arrow tip, before the poe burst into flames and vanished leaving the arrow to fall to the ground. He then stared at Vio for a moment. "I swear I will never threaten to eat you for as long as I live. Just do not do that again!"

Vio laughed, "Two for four then." Giving a side-ways smile, he hid the fact he was honestly scared to death of hitting Blue, "Honestly I can't promise that, if the next poe takes a liking to your face, I'm afraid I'll have to shoot towards you again." Third times the charm after all.. No! No! Bad Vio, bad Vio, you're not going to try and kill the draconian.

"I swear you're doing this on purpose." Blue growled and walked towards the next room.

Byrne was now standing at the entrance facing several rather... unfriendly Gorons. "Look, I just need to find out where a human and draconian went, that human is very important."

The gorons laughed. "A likely story!" One spoke crossing his arms. "You just wish to kill the drago!"

"Likely because it's true!" The drago killer sighed, "Listen, I really need to hurry before it's too late, so if you would please let me talk to your chieftain, perhaps I can come up with a compromise."

"NEVER! Brother Darunia would NEVER agree to see someone like you!" The other goron shouted angrily.

"Someone like who?" Darunia asked coming up behind the two gorons. He'd heard the yelling and he's already figured what type of person was trying to get through their door. But if this hunter knew that Vio was the prince they would have no choice but to tell him where Blue and Vio had gone, else the gorons be accused of crimes against the crown and a war be started against them. "What do you want stranger?"

"To find a man who was kidnapped," Byrne stated, finally feeling more relaxed upon seeing someone who seemed to be more controlled. "A drago stole him away from his home so I'm simply searching for them to bring he man back home." Should he mention the titles of Prince? Perhaps... but he'd just leave that out for now in case he needed it for later...

"Is that so?" Darunia asked playing the fool. Perhaps they could send him on a wild goose chase. "Well I can tell you nothing stranger, we've seen no dragos come through here. Nor anyone held against their will"

"Prince Vio was kidnapped from the castle," Byrne snapped back curtly, "As for the Drago's, I know there was one here thanks to a Goron down near the caverns."

Darunia managed to keep a straight face but on the inside he was cursing everyone especially the goron on guard duty. "Ah.. You meant them! I'm sorry, once someone is considered a brother to the goron tribe we do not view them as anything but Goron." The elder replied smoothly. "But again, there are no longer any dragos here, nor was there ever anyone being held against their will. Have you tried Kakariko?"

"I have, that was why I originally came up here," He admitted, "I came here to help with the dodongo problem, but when I got here, the draconian and his... companion had already defeated them." He crossed his arms over his chest, "And how do you know that one of them wasn't held against their will? Have you ever been cornered by a drago while they're hungry and unable to do anything but follow them or die?" Besides the prince... the prince needed help...

Darunia scoffed. "Have you ever actually gotten to know a drago? Or are you so caught up in your old fables and rumors that you have blinded yourself? One does not earn the title of Brother from the goron tribe easily."

"I have gotten to know a drago," Byrne snapped, "Worst decision of my life!"

"Then you got to know the wrong one!" Darunia snapped back clenching his fists. "Regardless of what you think! They are no longer HERE! The two left the mines this morning!"

"Where did they go?! I need to get the Prince back to Hyrule Castle!"

"We do not know!" Darunia snapped before turning on his heel the gorons at the door keeping Byrne from following. "And for their sakes I hope you never find them."
