Chapter 10 – Water bead, Mara's horse and Home.
Kaian woke up just as the sun was rising. Yawning, she tried to sit up but a stronger force brought her back down. "Meh?" She landed on something soft. She lazily looked up to see Link fast asleep, she smiled a little. He looked so cute and innocent. His hat had fallen of some time during the night, and a few strands of his bangs fell over his eyes. All previous anger had floated away from her, as she lay there perfectly content. About ready to fall back to sleep, her stomach gave a low, deep growl. She cursed softly as she remembered exactly how much energy she had used yesterday. Trying again to get out of his grasp only resulted to him unconsciously tighten his hold. Growling in frustration, she thought about waking him up. ' But he looks so cute!' She mentally cried. Then an idea popped in her head. She slowly turned to face Mara. The blond looked to just be staring at the sunrise. " Yo blondie!" She called in a low whisper. Mara snapped her head toward Kaian, her two-toned eyes giving her a questioning look. " A little help?"
Sitting up the blonde walked over to her traveling companions. She gently lifted Link's arm, with a little difficulty. Kaian wiggled up of his arms and stood beside Mara. "Damn he has some grip eh?" She laughed while walking to the edge of the water and sitting down. Mara walked slowly behind her, a little dazed due to the fact she had just touched the hottest guy in Hyrule. She sat down beside Kaian. " So tell me about yourself blondie."
Mara smiled. Her new nickname was kind of growing on her. " Well, I like to wear Zora tunics, as you can tell, my eye colour and my hair colour are natural." She paused for a second and gazed out into the lake. " I'm really into archery, and I'm pretty decent in the arts of kicking. I'm terrified of redeads and skulltulla's, and I sometimes say things that make no sense. Random like."
" That's cool. You just better not get killed ok?"
Mara laughed. " It's a deal." While Kaian was having her laughing fit, Mara again gazed out into the water, only this time something caught her eye. " Hey what's that?"
Kaian looked over to where she was pointing. " Hey that's the water bead!" She jumped up happily. " But I can't swim down that far without drowning myself.
Mara's eyes lit up. " Oh, I can get it!" She pumped her fist in the air. " Leave it to me! MyZore tunic helps me breathe under water."
Kaian nodded her head andlaughed " Alright, alright. You can go." Just as she was about to jump into the water, something behind them shook the ground. The girls spun around to face a huge octopus and two ice Keese. Link wide-awake but trapped in a bubble. " Holy cow!" Kaian exclaimed.
" That's a Octorok! A very big Octorok." She glanced towards the bead. " And it looks like those Bari want that bead!" She stated in a very serious voice.
" Great. That's just fucking great. Our hero is trapped in a freakin' bubble and there is enemies everywhere!" Calming herself she quickly thought of a plan. She quickly grabbed her arrows and sword. She stood back to back with Mara. " All take care of these idiots while you go get that bead."
" But it'll be dangerous! You mi-"
" Shut up there's no other way I can't swim down there you can. So go!"
Sighing in defeat she nodded. " Be careful."
" Aren't I always?" Kaian winked as Mara dove into the water. Kaian turned back to her foes. " Ready to die suckers?" The Keese attacked her head on. She quickly took out two arrows and shot the bats heading her way. They fell to the ground instantly. The Octorok didn't look too happy as it to attacked her. She barely jumped out of the way. " Hey, Linky-boy how do I kill this thing."
Link yelled at the top of his lungs. " It's back. Hit it on it's back!"
" It's back?" She quickly threw a glance at the turned octopus. Sure enough there was a bulge at the base of it's back. " Ha, bingo." Using her sword, she attacked it but the sword bounced off. " Huh?" The Octorok turned around in pure anger and knocked her into the wall. " Owww that really hurt!"
Link winced. " You have to stun it!"
" Now he tells me." The redhead mumbled getting up. She took out an arrow and shot the octopus in the eye. It froze. " Oh, you're so dead now."
Meanwhile...
Mara swam until she was right above the bead. The Bari swam up to her obviously very angry with her. She took out an arrow and drove it into the closest jellyfish. It died, but she got a nasty shock. " That was stupid Mara." She muttered to herself. She took out her bow and shot the next three under her. She looked around her to see five more still alive. She had only three arrows left. " That's just great." She muttered as she quickly killed the she could. She drove down, heading toward the bead, getting shocked on the way. Blood escaped from were the Bari touched her. Crying out in pain she refused to give up. Finally reaching the bead, she noticed a bundle of arrows. She laughed at her luck as she shot the remaining jellyfish. As she reached the surface she swam toward the land.
Back to Kaian...
Kaian smirked as she hit the Octorok again, that final time it fell to the ground, green flames consuming it. " Ha sucker, teach you to mess with me." She looked up at Link. " Now had do I get you down?" A calming voice filled her head. Put your magic into your weapon. " Put your magic into your weapon?" She repeated. Shrugging she concentrated her power on the sword. Red, yellow and green flames now engulfed the bluish sword. She let out piercing cry as she realised the energy, freeing Link and leaving behind a pretty deep crater. " Oops?" Kaian shrugged, a little dizzy from the energy use.
Mara was now beside her, she looked on in awe. " Wow." She breathed. Shaking her head she faced Kaian. " Here." The water bead dropped in the grey eyed girl's hand.
" Thanks." She looked at Link. " You ok?" Link nodded. " Alright." She slipped the bead onto the necklace. Blue light surrounded her as she screamed in pain. A blue teardrop appeared on her wrist. Her screaming ceased as her fell to the ground, landing on her butt. " Ok, at least it's not as painful as before."
" You still scream loud enough to break a window." Link half joked, as he removed his hands from his sensitive ears.
Mara who had never witness this before was again in awe. " That's so cool!" She laughed. " You like, get a new power to right?" Kaian nodded. " Oh so cool." She laughed. " Oh, you must be tired. Link you stay here in case more monsters come by and I'll get some food ok?" The two nodded in agreement. " Cool! Be back soon." With that she took off and disappeared behind the corner, toward the waterfall.
" Weird girl." Link finally concluded.
Kaian shrugged. " She's not that bad."
" Master Ganondorf. I have news." The blonde spy reported.
Ganon was sitting on his dark throne lazily. He was simply bored out of his mind. Zelda won't talk or scream when he hit her. There was no important business at the current moment. Who would have though getting revenge and taking over the land could get this boring. " Well report already."
" The girl who travels with the hero has found another bead. With this new bead she can unlock a new power. It could prove dangerous."
Ganon was now looking at his spy's lips. He now just now was figuring out his attraction to his servant. " Go on."
The blonde cleared their throat. " I also found that she can fair good in battle without the hero's help. I suggest we get rid of her as soon as possible Master."
" Oh is that right?" Ganon was now advancing on the blonde, cornering the spy in a corner.
" Y-yes Master Ganon-" He was silenced with a forceful kiss. Ganon had the poor spy trapped between a wall and himself. His tongue demanding entrance. His hands roamed the spy's body; his hands travelled downward into the bottom half of the clothing. The blonde yelped, as the spy felt Ganon's cold, large hands. Of course, this let Ganon's tongue gain entrance. It roamed its new territory, tasting every bit. Finally, he drew back for air. As he was about to go for a second round, another one of the servants walked is. The blonde sighed with relieve.
" Sir, the Lizalfos are at it again." The servant reported.
Ganon growled. " You interrupted for that?" The servant gulped. " Right now I can careless. Right now I want the Hero of Time and his redheaded friend disposed of got it? Send the spell casters Koume and Kotake. "
" Yes sir!"
" You go and make sure they don't mess up got it?" Ganondorf was now talking to the spy.
" Yes, Master." With that the two left. Ganon returned to his throne, really pissed off that he didn't get to have his fun with the blonde.
Mara finally returned soaking wet. " I hate fish." She stated.
Kaian laughed as she got up and took the fish from her. " Will eat then get you a horse since you're going to be travelling with us."
" Why? I can just share Link's horse." She smiled sweetly.
" No." Kaian growled.
Mara laughed. " Okay, okay. So we head for Lon Lon Range?"
So the three ate and laughed and talked about the stupid things. But the also spoke of important issues as well. They packed up and mounted their horses. Kaian letting Mara ride with Link. When they made it to the ranch Malon greeted them happily. " Kaian, Link how are you?" She looked at Mara. " I'm afraid I haven't met yet."
" I'm Mara." She replied as she jumped off the saddle.
" Well it's nice to met you Mara." She said with a smile.
" Hey carrot top we need a favour."
Malon spun around. " And what's that Kai?"
" We need a horse for blondie over hear." She jerked her thumb toward Mara.
" Umm, ok what about…" Malon disappeared in the barn and came out with a brown horse. She patted in lightly. " This is Coco, our most tame but not a racing horse. So you can have her."
Mara squealed in happiness. " Thank you Malon!"
" Anytime. So I guess you guys are going now?"
" Yes. We need to defeat Ganondorf quickly." Link answered.
" Ok, but come back soon."
" Of course carrot top. Bye now."
" Bye. Be careful!"
The three rode out of the ranch, heading for Karkariko village. Kaian and Link way ahead of Mara, who was just getting used to the new horse. They rode in peace for about three minutes when two very ugly witches appeared in front of them. The two horses reeled in fright and knocked their owners to the ground. " Hehehe, it's nice to see you again Hero." Koume said first.
" To bad you need to go so soon." Kotake teased.
" You two are alive? Well, that's just great." Link sarcastically remarked.
" What do you mean need to go?" Kaian questioned. Mara stayed where she was while this conversation happened.
" You are banished from this dimension as of NOW!" The two screamed at the same time. They brought they're wands together and created a ball of energy. Kaian screamed and Link watched in horror as the ball consumed them both. Mara fell to the ground, her hand over her mouth as she watched helplessly.
" Well that was easy." Kotake snorted.
" Our son will be pleased." Koume laughed as they disappeared. Mara stared at the spot were her friends once were. Only they're horses remained.
Kaian woke up in a pile of hay. She stood up, and surveyed her surroundings. Her eyes widen as she kicked Link awake. He moaned and sat up slowly. " Where are we?" Kaian walked out of the barn and stared at the building in front of her. Link walked behind her and put his hand on her shoulder. He shook her lightly. " Where are we?" He asked again.
" Earth." Was her reply. " I'm home."
A/N: oh wow they're on Earth. Wait Link's on Earth! Holy shit how's my hair?
