Four Swords Re-booted
Author's Note: Not much to say here... new chapter! This one is a little more serious/scary. Leave me a Personal Message about your opinions on the story. Should it stay with a similar theme to this or be more of a light-heart-styled adventure? Anyways, Enjoy!
(A/N2): THIS CHAPTER IS EXTREMELY PLOT CRUCIAL. I reference back to it later in my writing, and even as an example of a true villain. If you choose to skip this chapter, be warned that a majority of later combat and baddies won't make any sense. You have been warned.

Chapter 6: Adventure!
The heroes walked down the path, some chat involved, though not much happened. It is quite funny when what you know and think is shared exactly the same with those around you! Red thought it was creepy; if he ever had a personal thought, their similar ways of thinking would probably mean that the others thought the same. No one else seemed to mind but Red; Red never talked about it or brought it up. Green whistled a happy tune, similar to that of the musicians in the market, but not as professional and definitely not that of an actual instrument. Vio and Blue walked apart from one another; both lost in thought about what was to come of their recently started adventure.
Suddenly, Blue stumbled on what seemed to be a loose rock. Not long before this, he had proceeded to kick it, trying to give him some idle activity. His foot hurt, though nothing serious (or even considered an injury for that matter). The rock had a cave in on the side, like a worn handle. Blue got down to see why he hadn't moved the so-called 'rock'. It was off the road a bit, he was drifting to the side after all. He gave it a tug, though it wasn't budging. Green caught the sight of Blue pulling at something. He decided to go see what it was; it looked like a very comical sight. Blue determinedly tried to pull it out of the ground. Pretty soon, Red and Vio went to join. All four pulled at the rock.
A loud CA-THUNK was heard. A patch of dirt moved, then more, and suddenly a rusted metal handle exposed itself. As more of this mysterious object revealed itself, it became more clear that it was a door leading into the ground. Blue let go of the 'quite now definitely not a rock-thing-object' and everyone stumbled backward and on top of Vio. Blue was quickly over by the strange door leading into the ground. He swung it open; a loud creaking was heard by the others. A group of keese flew free, startling Blue to fall backward. He was okay with keese, but in his face was where he didn't want them.
The four continued into the cave. It was dark (duh!) and that reminded Green of the lantern he had picked up when they left the castle. He took it out and lit it and a glow of light filled the cave. They noticed a few more keese where on the ceiling, undisturbed by the light. A moblin skull was on the ground.
"Eeeew..." mumbled Red.
"Shhhh," said Vio, "we don't want to wake whatever is in here up... if there IS anything in here."
"There has to be something good if it is so 'cleverly' hidden." grumbled Blue thinking of his hurt foot.
Then the silence broke when Green stepped on a weak root, cracking it. The sound echoed throughout the cave, producing the original sound ten times over.
In another area far from Hyrule... (ending to the side-story)
"He he he..." laughed the fairy. After she had placed the quite large and possibly universe breaking compactibility with her size, she lit a match. She had a line of moon dust which she... somehow... made flammable (it smells like used gunpowder! Really, look it up!). She lit the match and line of flammable trail and it went straight to the bomb.
"Run awaaaaaaaaay!" Yelled the fairy. A trail of sparkles went flying behind her. She flew past the scrub and, just on que, he followed her. They left the moons atmosphere.
"CABOOOOOM!" yelled the fairy.
Skull kid gulped. "Why are they running away so fast?!" he thought. He frantically thought of a reason. He looked at the moon. It had a face different from the one before. It looked like it had eaten a foul food rather than a crazed grin. "oh noooo..." he thought.
Then Termina's balance went haywire. Link and Tatl ran (or flew) very far away, and Majora was doomed to a terrible, unspeakable death.
The hero's walked deeper into the strange cave. A sound of slow slurping was heard.
"Shhhhhluuuurpkkshhh" the strange producer of the sound made.
"W-what was that?" startled Red managed to shakily say.
"I... I don't know" Vio said as though it was directly him that Red was talking to.
Another dry slurp was heard. Green was distracted by the strange noise and did not look in front of him. Then he felt a cold feeling across his hand. He looked forward and what he saw sent shivers down his spine.
A pale white face stared at him through the bars. One of its eyes was larger than the other with a scar through it. It did not make any noise. It had sharp claws and the bodies of familiar people layed behind it. It took slow breathes. It had a slight purple and dark blue tone to its skin. It gave Green a headache just looking at it. It slowly raised it's 'hand' which was grossly amputated and morfed. It began to reach for Green. Green was frozen with fear. He wanted to run but his legs where as heavy as lead. His face was pale and his hands went cold. The face of the demon was forever frozen into his head. It starred, with an empty expression that would possibly reflect sadness and anger mixed together. It's cold, black, pupuless eyes continued to stare. Green began to step back as the monster drew closer with its hand. No one else seemed to notice what was happening.
"What's up Green? You have stood there for a while. Are you ok?" Blue (slightly) annoyingly said to Green.
Green finally managed to say something. "Run." he mumbled.
"What?" said Red. "We've come so far.
"RUN NOW!" Green yelled.
The monster showed its teeth. It let out a screech that was silent and yet loud at once.
"Wha-what was that?!" panicked Vio. "Is that...?" mumbled Vio.
"WHAT IS IT VIO JUST TELL US-" Blue panicked to Vio, cut off by Red's hand who, at the time, was using the other hand to shield his eyes from the monster.
"It's a Grey... ummm... Horror?! Who names this stuf?!"Vio blurted out.
The monster cringed at the mention of it's species. It didn't like that name for some reason.
"A Grey?" said a confused Red, "That doesn't sound scary at all." He mistakenly unshielded his eyes. He immediately regretted it. It was like staring at your darkest fear, yet so much worse. He quickly had the same reaction as Green. He froze with fear.
Blue grabbed red by the shirt and Vio followed so by grabbing Green before the monster actually touched him. Whatever the outcome of that would be, they didn't need to find out. The dead bodies on the floor should have hinted it.
The group quickly rushed to the surface. Red and Green quickly ran in opposite directions to puke into the bushes. There was is no better way to say it, they were scarred senseless. Vio and Blue both red in the face from the 'endurance run they just went through carrying another body with them, sat on a rock, back to back from one another. Blue lightly kicked the strange rock that had allowed them entrance to the hell-hole they entered before, closing the entrance so that hopefully no one would have to suffer the same fate as them. Green and Red came back to Vio and Blue. Red was clutching something tightly in his hands.
"What's that?" Vio asked.
"It's a familiar weapon I found in there. I was going to tell you guys about it just before Green found that... whatever it was..." Red explained. "It looks like that fire staff I got last time I was with you guys, yet this one has a different top." He continued, pointing to the top of the staff. It was very similar to the previous one with the wood-work and all, yet this one had a light blue crystal at the top, rather than the previous red one.
"Well, what are you waiting for, try it out!" said Blue.
Then as though it was planned, a octorock walked through the bushes. Red pointed the staff at the small red enemy and fired. In defense, the creäture spit a large rock and ran away. The blast of blue light and the rock hit and created a...
"It freezes stuff, huh?" Blue said quizzically.
The rock sat on the ground in a case of jagged ice. It clearly explained what the staff did.
"Wow, score!" said Red proudly holding out his new weapon.
"Lucky..." mumbled Green, letting his jealousy escape him for a moment. However, the others heard this comment and everyone laughed.
Well, that was chapter 6, did you enjoy it? I worked a little while on this one, trying to get it a little more exciting. Don't forget to drop a like, favorite, or just send me a personal message on your thoughts about this story. I'm starting to think about that second story I mentioned before. If I start that, this story's posts will become slower. If you approve (or disapprove) of this, send me a personal message. If no one sends me anything (like usual) I will just start it anyways... so good luck stopping me without some feedback! I may start that second story around chapter nine, we will see (no promises). For now, just remember to comment on this story. Have a good day, guys.
