As for this chapter it's a little sad and depressing at the start, but I tried to work some humor into it, so don't kill me or send Michael Jackson or Rosie O' Donnell after me, looks at Hieisbitch Vslasher says, don't you dare!
The Legend of Zelda: The Liryxn Blade Chapter 8: Eternal Sorrow
This chapter starts about at the start of nightfall,
Find me… look at me… find me… cut to pieces inside of you…. look at me…
Cut to pieces inside you… find me… says a bodiless voice to Malon in her dream. Malon groans as she feels a warm energy flow around her.
As Rhekai mourns the death of his mother, one can only feel nothing but anger and sadness in one's heart. The question is what to do with it all? When you have no one but yourself to care? No one around to care for you, sadness engulfs Rhekai as he looks sadly at the world beneath him… He is so angry at the world that had taken all those he had loved from him, and yet he knew he shouldn't. His mother had taught him that anger should not be taken out on others, that they had no fault in the matter.
"Why hurt the innocent when they are harmless?" his mother always said, "Why kill people for the sake of killing them? Do not lower yourself to Ganondorf 's level, he killed because he had the power to kill, one should never do that evil to the world. My people die because of people like them, remember Rhekai never sink to that level."(A/n: because it will come back and bite you in the ass, seriously it will, from my own experiences trust me it does, always..) Rhekai heads to his favorite area in Lake Hylia, to the tree outside of the Water temple. Rhekai was thinking if he should still enter the tournament, he was not sure that he felt like fighting right now and probably wouldn't be a good idea. He got and idea, since he was in the area, he decides to visit his friend in the Lake Hylia laboratory. The scientist and Rhekai had always been good friends, ever since Rhekai has saved The scientists life on the first time they had met.
Flashback (Do all those wavy thingies comedies do): The scientist whose name I had not mentioned before cause I was to dam lazy is, Professor Hanhjoab, pronounced (han-job, yea I know shut it, that is if you got it). Hanhjoab was at the top of Death Mountain talking to the biggoron who had asked the scientist for his eye drops in return for some goron texts. As he was climbing down the mountain, he was attacked by a horde of tektikes that were mating out in the mountain (Is it just Vslasher or are the tektikes getting to humpy dumpy in this story?), he had disturbed their afternoon mating, and the aggressive tektikes attacked him. As he ran down the mountain he tripped on a dam goron and had a little free-fall down the mountain, luckily for him Rhekai was taking a flight around the area and saw the scientist falling down the mountain. Rhekai dived in and caught the scientist, Rhekai then proceeded to land on the base of Death Mountain. Hanhjoab thanked Rhekai for saving him and asked if there was anything, he could do to thank him for saving his life. Rhekai though of something, you see at this time Rhekai's mother had already been ill, so he asked the scientist if there was anything he could do to cure ringworm disease. The scientist told him that there had been no remedy made yet, but that he would gladly work on one in order to repay Rhekai for saving him, thus explaining the crap shack A.K.A, the laboratory in Lake Hylia and also his knowing of medicinal properties and such. Rhekai had decided to befriend the Hanhjoab, since he was very pleasing and friendly and most importantly, he could one day cure his mother. Ever since that faithful day, two years ago Rhekai had hoped for a cure, but alas it was not meant to be…
Back to Reality,
As Rhekai walks towards the laboratory, he hears a voice saying, "Find me… look at me… cut to pieces inside you…" He can not explain this feeling, but it almost sounded like a plea for help, he felt something around his body that was warm. He ignores it and continues walking towards his friend's crap shack, but to no avail he can not make it go away, he felt the warmth burning through him…but suddenly it was gone.
In Gerudo valley,
Link awakes from his sleep, he yawns and says, "I may not be home, but at least I had no dreams involving Rosie O' Donnell or Michael Jackson." He then heard a voice saying, "Find me… Look at me…Cut to pieces inside you…Find me.." Link thinks he must have gotten drunk (I think that a lot sometimes too) or something else; because he knew, he was alone. Nevertheless, Link says, "Who's there? Show yourself!" but no one was in the room, it was silent.
In Kokiri forest,
Clarisse hears the same voice saying to her, "Find me… Look at me… Cut to pieces inside you…Find me.." Clarisse, had no explanation to this voice, but she knew not to panic, a sudden warm feeling surrounded her body and a few seconds later it was gone. She knew that this must be some sort of signal of an awakening, but whether it was for good or evil, she did not know…
Somewhere in the Shadow Abyss,
Shadow Link is training hard after his defeat by Clarisse, in frustration he hears a voice saying to him, "Find me… Look at me…Cut to pieces inside you…Find me…" Shadow Link stops his training and screams out in anger, "Leave me alone, I have no desire whatsoever to help out this world! It does not matter, I will always be what I am, a monster…" He then releases a finishing blow to the wallmaster he was training on, (those hand like things that grab you and take you to the start of the dungeon in oracle of seasons and oracle of ages), therefore cutting it in half with excessive strength. The voice acknowledges what S.L said and responds, "You are what you are, but what you are, is not a monster…" S.L responds, "It does not matter, I am known as a monster… there is nothing I can do, but watch this world crumble in its own hatred…and Besides, that dammed kokiri girl is probably of more help to you right now, she kicked my sorry ass for all its worth. Im done, just leave me alone..." Shadow Link feels a feeling he had not felt before, warmth but after a few seconds it was gone.
In Zora's domain,
Japas is also training in the zora fountain as he hears, "Find me…look at me…cut to pieces inside you…" Japas thinks someone is playing a trick on him, he looks around frantically, but no one was around… He thinks, "I must be going crazy, but what does that mean? A sudden warmth engulfed him as he shouts, "Cut to pieces inside me? What does it mean!"
Back at Lake Hylia,
Rhekai reaches Hanhjoab's crap shack and knocks on the door, there is a reply, Hanhjoab comes out and opens the door. Hanhjoab is surprised to find his friend Rhekai outside the door, Rhekai looks somewhat grim; Hanhjoab quickly greets Rhekai and invites him inside the crap shack. Rhekai tells Hanhjoab what has happened to his mother, the scientist tries to console Rhekai, but to no avail, all he says is, "If we only had more time…"
Hanhjoab replies, "Death waits for no one…whether they are good or evil." Malon wakes up to the presence of Rhekai, she feels as if she knows him even though they had never met before. Rhekai asks Malon her name, she responds, "My name is Malon, its nice to meet you." Rhekai smiles and says, "Likewise", to her. Hanhjoab tells Malon if she is hungry, she can eat anything she wants or what is at disposal. Malon nods and heads to the kitchen, at the door she stops and asks if they want anything, both of them respond with a "no, thank you." Malon nods her head, goes into the kitchen, and makes herself something to eat.
It is almost Midnight, Rhekai decides its best to leave now that Malon is now at rest, he says to Hanhjoab, "It was nice seeing you again, I will come back when the time allows". Hanhjoab says his goodbye, and adds that he will also keep working on the remedy of the ringworm disease, lest it be needed one day. With that, Rhekai says quietly, "Thank you and good luck, friend…whatever may ever happen you and I are still friends" Before Malon went back resting, since she is still somewhat weakened by the loss of blood, she had told the scientist if Link was to come back, to wake her up no matter how late it was.
In Gerudo valley, Link finally reaches the underground caves leading to Lake Hylia, he had been walking almost the whole night and the light he had left is beginning to leave. He walks in the cavern; it was so humid, cold, dreary and there were some odd noises of creatures. Link almost felt that something was following him through the darkness. What he did not know, is that there were rumors that the caves were home to some monsters that came out in the night, but then again it was just a rumor because no one had enough sense of stupidity to actually go into the caves at night. Link was not worried; he thought he could deal with whatever came his way, no matter what. Just then, the creature that is following him decides that it was done fooling around with him, and decides to attack. The beast is of black color with appalling features, it has large claws that are sharp to the very end, grotesque fangs that makes one cringe at the sight, as if you were seeing Michael Jackson face-to-face, it has large yellowish, glowing eyes, it is about the size of a white wolfo, whom are bigger than the forest wolfos. It's thick black hide is the perfect defense against most weapons, for the exception of the sword of evil's bane and some other ones, the creature was a mythical Death Wyvern, there were rumored to have gone extinct in the age when the sages put a seal on the Sacred realm (from LoZ: A Link to the Past), but this one managed to survive without the dark energy of the Sacred realm.
The creature lets out a battle roar to initiate its attack; Link notices this (how the hell could you not?) and unsheathes his sword. The D.W (Death Wyvern) strikes from above Link, and slashing at Link's sword trying to disarm him. Link dodges the attack and counters with a parry attack, the D.W dodges it and grapples the wall with its claws. It started to ascend on the cave walls, this works as an advantage for the creature, seeing as how the shadows conceal its black hide. Link can not see a thing, so he stops and starts listening in order to see if he could hear the D.W climbing the cavern walls. He felt a weak breeze passing to his left, he slashes but he hits a cavern wall. Link is starting to grow inpatient, it had been 10 minutes since the D.W had attacked him.
What he did not know was that the creature was right above his head, the dam thing was making Link look like an idiot; however, unlike Link the creature was not stupid, it was biding its time to see if Link would be stupid enough to sheathe his sword; therefore, leaving Link vulnerable for an attack. Link; however, is in deep thoughts (holy crap, Link can think!), "I could use the light arrows to see if can find that thing, but then again sheathing my sword could leave me vulnerable to an attack. What to do? Link then flashes a smile, "Nayru's love." Nayru's love emits light as it was cast, also protecting him at the same time, Link starts to cast the spell, he does the Nayru's love stance and the bright blue light surrounds Link. The creature bellows at the sight of the light, the D.W does not like the light, and was therefore forced to retreat, at least for now. Link starts running to try to get out of the cavern before the effects of Nayru's love ran out, but unfortunately for Link, Vslasher is a bastard and wants to see Link be beaten up, so Vslasher is going to make the effects of Nayru's love end ……. now!
Link is once again in engulfed in darkness, the only light that was visible was the very weak light of the torches, but those were not enough to keep away the D.W. As soon as the D.W realized that the effects of the spell ran out, it goes after Link with a vengeance, the D.W rushes towards Link and lands a devastating slash to Link's back, but luckily for Link it had backhanded him with its umm… claw hand thingy... Link stumbles forward and crashes into a nearby column, the D.W then climbs the wall and does triangle jump to the other wall. This causes the D.W to gain momentum and also confusing Link, since the walls caused an echo throughout the cavern. Link is really in for it now, the creature lets out a harsh cry, which meant it was feeding time… (Vslasher smiles, oh boy pizza, oh wait its just hamburgers, o0 …hamburgers, sweet!)
Link is pissing in his pants now; he is thinking "Im too young to be molested!" (hah, tell that to Michael Jackson, he would be on your ass like George Bush on an oil well), the D.W finally strikes from Link's right side. Luckily, for Link he had his Hylian shield protecting him from the attack and causing the creature to go on a rebound. Since the creature is on the rebound from the impact of the steel shield and its claws, Link takes advantage of this opportunity by charging to towards the D.W. The D.W takes notice of this and uses its black, thick tail to smack Link across the cave tunnel. Link had not even gotten up when the D.W begins attacking him again. Link is forced to roll out of the way, but the D.W stays on his tail like Michael Jackson at a little kid's birthday party.
Link Is now to the point were he is very, very, very exhausted from the never-ending brutality of the D.W. (However, since Vslasher cannot kill Link off, seeing as he is an important person in his story, Vslasher decides to give Link a break. Morning is about to break in, 10..9..8..7..6..5..4..3..2..1..) The light of the morning sun breaks out and floods the cave, as if it was a Six flags on a High School field trip, filled with horny teenagers and shitty teachers. (Vslasher smiles I cant help it I love making fun of things, like the president of the U.S.A, whose name I wont even bother in mentioning, Rosie O' Donnell, Michael Jackson and some others as well) The D.W groans as it was teenager out of whip cream, knowing that it had lost its prey due to the fact that it could not stand the dam light! (ahem.. Ill get a hold of myself now… I just cant live without whip cream on my ice cream or on another certain thing, looks at Diane, umm no, not like that! Ahh blah, I give up you, can kill me now Diane -.- moments later R.I.P. Omar, A.K.A. Vslasher on a tombstone) Link sighs in relief, he is glad that painful experience was over, (all thanks to the twisted humor of Vslasher! umm .. were was I? oh, that's right! wait a minute, aren't I supposed to be dead?) Link still has to walk a few more minutes before he can get to Lake Hylia.
This; however, does not discourage our hero, who by the way has pissed in his tights, nevertheless he still continues to walk with the last shred of dignity he still had left, which was…umm (Vslasher thinks…he peed in his pants.. got beaten up.. acted like an idiot, wait that's anatomically incorrect, he is an idiot! …has not gotten laid…got beaten up by a gay, pink, fluffy pillow… cried like a sissy boy one time…umm nope, Link no longer has any shred of dignity left, well at least the fact that he hasn't gotten ass rammed by Michael Jackson, remains, ill give him that, but that might change…heh). Link reaches Lake Hylia, but now he has to go down a steep ledge and he does not have enough energy for it; nevertheless, he is forced by the author, Vslasher to climb down the steep ledge, causing him to lose his balance and to take an unexpected bath in the cold morning water of Lake Hylia. Link shudders as he gets out of the freaking cold ass water, continuing his way towards the scientists crap shack, a few minutes later he reaches the crap shack, he knocks the door, waiting for the scientist to open the door.
