Chapter IV
"Geh…" Water filled inside me, and splashes of water filled my surroundings with me struggling to get to the surface. In an instance, I saw a blue-skinned hand reaching for me. In the little strength I had, I grabbed the blue-skinned fin hand. I flew up on to the platform, grasping for air.
"WHAT THE HELL WERE YOU TRYING TO DO!?" I looked up at Rachael now glaring at me.
"I… wanted to… catch up… to that," I coughed. "…person…!"
"Is that… REALLY worth risking your life?!" I looked away.
"Maybe…" She face palmed. "You're serious!?" I stood up. "Yes, I am." Her head slowly went down. "Seriously…" I sighed, and began walking forward. "I'm just like that… it's probably how I'm going to die in this game!" I felt a darting stare. "Game?" I stopped, in fear. With a laugh. "Er… where are my words getting to? Ha ha!" Again she stared at me like I was a crazy person. "Did you inhale too much water?" I turned around, and stared up. With short time to say something, I looked back to her with a slow yes. She walked pass me. I watched her swim across. WAIT A SECOND… SWIM!?
I ran over, and stopped on my heels finding WATER! I still don't understand why I have a fear of water in this "game"! The water was vast, it scared me.
"Um… what are doing?" I glanced up, and crossed my arms. Looking around, I thought of answers. I raised my index finger up, pointing at her.
"SIMPLY! Just observing the water! FOR THAT PERSON!" My words were the exact words printing out of my mind. I seriously sounded like a person advertising Pokemon or something!
"What is up with you, right now…" I stomped.
"WELL! IT IS OBVIOUS THAT I WANT TO FIND THAT PERSON!" She turned around. Oh please! Buy buy!
"You need to chill," She said with a leaving around the corner. I gaped, and took my wand out. Placing my thumb over the sapphire triforce, and made a wave to get across. Running along the corner I found Rachael.
With all the noises I was making to run on the tile, she turned to me.
"Can you use your wave, so we can get across?" I smiled slightly, a little annoyed.
"Well… I was going to do that anyway…" I walked up to her, and held the wand pointing down. Water soon flowed below us. She got on, and I led it up onto the other side. "WATCH OUT!" I noticed a pillar in the way, it had a snake head. I swiftly moved the wave to my left, and lowered it down to the ground floor.
"You almost killed us… AGAIN!" I glared at her.
"It is a little difficult to maneuver with this thing!" She sighed.
"Okay…" She stood next to the green door, and I opened the door for her. The knob was slightly cold. We both walked in.
Inside the room, were slow moving spikes gliding across the room. There was about three layers of those.
"WHAT ARE THOSE?!" She shrieked with horror. I as well was in shock… I didn't really… want to get hurt! I mean I have a Bougainvillea plant outside my house, in the backyard. It has magenta flowers on it, but like roses they have thorns. I love them… and I hate them… I don't know if I like spikes gliding around.
"Um… I guess I'll use the wave—"A high-pitched voice interrupted me. "Oh… you won't be doing that!" I glanced up, and so did Rachael. A black cat… and her demonic green eyes glared at me.
"Oh… it's you…" She looked away, placing her left paw on her right shoulder, with her eyes squinting.
"OH YES! I may help you now… but I still WILL remember, how you treated me before!" She sobbed.
"Well… you were treating me in a rudely manner AS WELL!" Rachael was gaping at the cat.
"OH WOW! A TALKING CAT!" She shouted out. The black cat brought herself to Rachael, and smiled at her with graceful smile.
"Well! Finally someone who appreciates me!" I grunted, and rolled my eyes.
"WHY DON'T TELL ME WHAT YOU WANT TO SAY!" Another glared shot up me.
"Hmph… you should bring yourself up her and catch me… BUT!" 1… 2… 3… "YOU CAN'T USE ANY MAGIC!" I smirked, and the cat ran to my right somewhere. I quickly struggled up the slope, avoiding the spikes.
"HEY WAIT!"
"I have to deal with this cat on my own…"
"WHY!"
"Because… you'll stop me!" I got up. There was a large door with a lock on it, and a small little hole in the wall, to my right. I stood in front of the hole, and got closer to it… I heard a mixture of voices.
"HEY WHY NOT! I WANT TO COME!" and there was, "Turn into a cat!" I laid down on the tile floor, and attempted to listen to the second voice. "Turn into a cat, by pulling your invisible headband off!" That's exactly what I heard.
I sat up, and tried to visualize my headband. It wasn't actually there of course. I practically was wielding air, nothing special! It did not work! "HEY ARE YOU LISTENING TO ME?!" She kept on going in an annoying circle, so I closed eyes. Again… I imagined a headband, and then a triforce appeared to me? I opened my eyes, and I tried to stand up but I couldn't? Looking down, I saw brown paws with striped fur, and a sapphire triforce on my left. I glanced at my nose, and found that my whiskers really came out! I'M A CAT! FINALLY MY DREAM HAS COME TRU—
"Get in this FREAKING HOLE!" I rolled my eyes, and crawled in the hole.
The hole was slightly wet, and it was narrow. I kind of struggled to walk because I wasn't used to walking on all four legs! But I couldn't believe it! I HAD A TAIL AND I WAS A CAT! I could see very well… the area was illuminated, and I saw things fine without any glasses.
O O O
HOW FAR WAS THIS?! Oh… I see something. I sprinted over. The black cat in her shadow stood in front of me.
"Hey look… you found out how to be a cat!" I stared at her.
"You're bugging me…"
"Hmm… you think you can turn back to your human form?" She asked.
"How?" She looked away, and licked her paw. She began grooming herself.
"Well it's obvious… imagine yourself human…" I sighed, and closed my eyes. I tried to imagine myself. Brown hair, hazel eyes…
My eyes open, and the black cat was now what I saw as my head was tilted downwards. "I really wanted to be a cat…" She looked away with her eyes closed.
"It will come in important needs…"
"Yeah well…" The black cat that appeared in front of me began glowing? It was a light-greenish glow… her form also began to grew. I stepped back. Purple sparkles appeared, and a visual image appeared. Purplish-Black hair and green eyes. Same hair colored ears were planted on the head. Pale skin, and a black cute dress with a purple bow tie as well. There were also brown boots laced to the bottom.
Her eyes laid on me, and she had no smile at all.
"You're cute!"
"Oh… so now you're nice…" She turned around and began walking forward. Her voice was actually not as high?
"Actually… you've been treating me rudely…" She stopped.
"Let's go… we have a boss to beat…" I sighed, and got closer to her. I dared not to walk beside her, I didn't like her.
O O O
Her foot steps were fierce, and they clicked the floor. Her hair also glided with her movements. I just glared at her behind hoping that my wavelength would reach her. I did not like her… I wanted to hit her, and send her flying! Yes! Wait… maybe it's my chance! I stepped closer to her, and looked down at her feet to match my walk speed. But… all of a sudden, she turned around, and looked at me.
"Go fill your wand up with water over there," She pointed to a small pool of water. I sighed and walked over to the pool of water… I was so close to slamming her on the ground! I basically cried in my head. Oh well…
The pool of water actually looked like a small pool. It had tile in it for the bottom, and some kind of symbols on the sides… I still can't understand this language! I dipped the wand inside.
"You have to be careful with how much water you use,"
"Why?"
"Well, I was getting to that…" She sighed, and I squinted my eyes in annoyance. Afterwards, I pulled my wand out.
"Do you remember when your water just stopped working when you were getting to that girl," I turned around.
"It's a SHE!" She glared at me, with her face pumped with actually anger. I just pranced around. "YES! I'M GOING BE FRIENDS WITH THEM!" I for which was pumped with happiness. I went on and on jumping around, and she just gave me ominous stares. I didn't really notice.
She face palmed. "Maybe I shouldn't have said anything…" I stopped, and looked at her. "Well you said something," She tilted her head in anger, and kept walking. Bad day? I guess so… "Then forget it…" I stood there. "Wha…?" Why is she so confusing? "I'm sure you can figure it out…" She hissed. I sighed and followed behind her. I think she is boring as a human somehow?
Again, I didn't want to get close to her. She had some energy going around her, I still didn't like. I just leaned to my sides to talk to her. "Do you think I'll meet this person at wherever you're taking me?"
"Do you remember why you came here? …to Hylia Lake?" She grumbled.
"Uh… yes, I came here to at least try to beat the game."
"Exactly," She said before I can draw another breath. I nodded up.
"We're going to beat the game, and get you out of here." I tilted my head.
"Wait… why do I have to get out of the game, so quickly?" Silence… I looked at her behind confused. Is she supposed to be helping me? "Hello…?" Her head still remained forward not saying any word, or having a reaction. See boring!
"Let's see how well you do…" I sighed.
"Yeah… okay… I'll probably die…" She said nothing… why is she so boring… GAH!
A door now stood in front of us. It had a lock on it… a blue lock in the symbol of the Zora's. The girl faced me, she didn't seem to care. She held a blue key in her hand as well.
"Use your water to loosen the keyhole." I glanced at the lock, and back at her.
"Loosen…? How is that supposed to work?!" She sighed.
"You're wand has the same symbol on the door…" I glanced at my wand. Awkward moment of thought!
"Oh…" She face palmed. I raised the staff, and pointed it at the lock yanking it forward. A swarm of water floated in the air around the lock. Not sure what to do, I pulled it towards. She smiled. WELL LOOK AT THAT!
"You're a quick learner…" She stepped closer to the door with the blue key pointing in the direction.
"Not at school," I added.
"Hmph… so what… I hated school as well!" I stared at her.
"There's school in this world?" She paused. Her hair blocked my view of her face.
"Yes… if you want to put it that way," She continued getting to the door.
"Huh…" She placed the key inside, and tilted the key to the left. She jerked her hair at me, and smiled at me.
"Ready?" Confused a little bit, I said yes. The doors flung open…
