Karane
"Yep," Parrow said, "These mushrooms are definitely edible!"
He had a big grin on his face, and I couldn't fault him for that. We had finally found some food. Things would go fine, until we ran out. I hoped this would only be temporary. "We could eat the grass…" I thought. After the excitement of finding food, the bad thoughts started to cram back into my mind.
"Why can't we bring Pipit in here with us?" I asked.
"I told you, Karane," Gaepora answered, gathering a few small mushroom pieces, "Pipit's wound would contaminate the water supply. I'll care for him outside the cave and come in here to get the supplies."
I sighed and turned to Parrow, who was carving the inside of a mushroom cap out. After a few moments, he noticed my questioning gaze. He smiled, knowing something that I didn't, and turned back to the carving. I exhaled again. This whole confusing dilemma we had ended up in wasn't helped by the weird behavior of some of our group.
Cawlin had been acting all dazed out, and Fledge was acting really strange. He had changed a lot. I thought he deserved a second chance, but now, I wasn't so sure. As I stumbled out of my thoughts, I saw Cawlin on the other side of Parrow, looking at him with a look of question.
"Don't ask," I said, with a smirk on my face.
Fledge
I swam outside to the shield. The Bokoblins knew they couldn't get in, but they were still patrolling. I looked to my right to find Gaepora and Pipit asleep. Well, Pipit had been asleep all day. People usually are unconscious when wounded as bad as he was. I sat down near the ledge and took off my backpack. I opened it, and inside was my chest of potions. I opened the chest and took out a bottle. Before I drank it, I looked at the Bokoblins. They were staring at Gaepora and Pipit, like they might pull something. Oddly enough, they weren't staring at me. I looked at the bottle again and threw it to the side.
"Look where the potion has gotten you, Fledge," the bad conscience said, "You got to stay with the others because you acted nice to them and weak when Pipit attacked you. The potion gave you that mind power. Don't just throw the power away."
"But it's turning me into a manipulative monster!"
"Look where being manipulative has gotten you. You have water, shelter, food. Drink the potion. Feel the power."
I grabbed the potion and drank it as fast as I could. I put the bottle back into the chest. I was down to only 6 more bottles of the stuff. I sealed the chest, put it in my backpack, and dived into the hole. As I came back to the inside of the rock, I saw something I didn't expect. Cawlin was moaning and groaning, a hand was stroking him, and Groose was trying to reason with it. Even with the potions, I was confused.
Groose
"You can't be with Cawlin," I told the hand.
I had woken up to find it stroking Cawlin, and decided that if I didn't want it to creep me or Cawlin out, I should try to reason with it.
"But we're in love," the hand argued.
"No, hand, he doesn't even know that you exist. And," I said, "I have a feeling he's just a replacement for somebody else."
"Yes, he is." The hand sniffled, or at least she made a sniffling sound, and continued, "I had a boyfriend in Termina. I wanted to explore the other toilets of the world, but he just wanted to stay at the same old toilet and live a regular life. I decided to leave, and I'm sure that he has found somebody else already."
"If he really loved you," I said, "he would wait for you to come back."
"Thank you Groose," the disembodied hand said as she stopped stroking Cawlin, "You're right. In fact, I'm going to go visit him right now." She faded away.
I was feeling pleased with myself. I had helped Cawlin, myself, and the relationship of two toilet-dwelling hands. I turned around and saw Fledge, and he had only one thing to say.
"WHAT?"
A/N People have been freaking out, asking me about what my next story will be (actually, it was only one PM...but you get my point.) My next story is... not Zelda related. :( But it is a funny parody. R&R!
