Hi everybody! Sorry for taking so long to finish this one...I've been sort of busy...farming...in Harvest Moon. And you know, I have been farming almost all day everyday, and then my parents decide that I should help them with their garden (which happens to be real). And I was all like, "No way, man! I'm trying to support my family! You're on your own, fools!" Yeah...That didn't go too well... And I can now say that real farming is hard! I have a new respect for all those real farmers out there... You have to actually pull out weeds! And it's not as easy as just pushing a button (fortunately, Harvest Moon doesn't have weeds!), you have to...dig...in the dirt! It's really icky.
Anyway, now that I have bored you all with my ranting... Thanks so much for reviewing! And now, we find Link in the middle of the Shadow Temple! Hope you all enjoy!

Chapter 14

Bongo-Bongo and Seeing Things in 3-D for the First Time Ever

"This is just like this one movie I saw!" Link said in awe as he stared at the hallway he was currently in. Every few feet there were large block things with spikes that would fall to the floor, squashing anyone who was unlucky enough to have been standing there. "Let's see, in the movie the guy did all these cool flips and stuff to avoid the evil spikes…But I think I'll just close my eyes and run for it!" Link said cheerfully.

He was about to do just that when Navi quickly pulled him back. "Hey!" she shouted warningly.

"Hmm, you're right! I'll find something to make me invisible, so I don't have to worry about getting hit!" Link said, and he went marching off. Navi just heaved a tired sigh before following him.

The two had been exploring the Shadow Temple for a few hours now. They had had to avoid all sorts of scary things, such as parts of the floor that wasn't really a real floor but a bottomless pit of doom disguised as a floor, strange monsters that were shaped like hands and dropped down from the ceiling, and other scary things like that. "All this work just to find Impa! Why can't she find someplace nice to go in? Like a house filled with puppies and kittens! That would be fun!" Link said miserably as he searched for something that would turn him invisible. Somehow, while he was exploring, he managed to find a shortcut and skip most of the temple. "Hey look at that! A giant cruise ship!" Link squealed with joy as he ran towards the large ship, that didn't look anything like a cruise ship.

"Let's go!" Link shouted, jumping up and down impatiently on the wooden deck. Navi was about to mention the symbol of the Triforce that Link was currently jumping on, but then thought better of it and kept quiet. Unfortunately, Link noticed it for himself, and he excitedly pulled out his ocarina and played Zelda's Lullaby. As soon as he finished the large ship started to move. "Wheeeee!" Link shouted happily as he pulled out a cushioned lounge chair out of his pocket and sat down with a cool glass of lemonade that had one of those fun, curly straws in it. Suddenly, the grumpy crew of the cruise ship got tired of watching Link laze about, and so they jumped from out of nowhere onto the deck of the ship. "Hi guys! Do you have a bowling alley here?" Link asked in a casual voice, completely oblivious to the fact that the crew were actually walking skeletons.

"Watch out!" Navi shouted, but Link completely ignored the monsters as they drew their swords and shields.

"Well!? Do you have a bowling alley or not? Honestly, you guys could at least answe- Oh my gosh! They're skeletons!!" Link shouted when he finally looked at the two skeleton monsters that were slowly walking towards him.

Link quickly abandoned his comfy lounge chair and lemonade before running towards the edge of the boat. Unfortunately, the ship was nowhere near any land that Link could jump on, as it was currently passing through some sort of tunnel. And the longer Link managed to avoid the crew members, the more of the un-dead crew joined them on the deck. By the time the ship arrived at its destination, the entire ship was covered with walking skeletons. But since the entire crew was chasing after Link, nobody was there to stop the ship, and it ended up crashing into a large wall. "The ship is sinking!" Link screamed, and he quickly jumped off of the boat and landed safely on a platform, leaving the crew to scramble to the bridge to try and repair their ship. They never managed to, however, and they ended up turning the boat into a submarine and giving tours of the underwater world to anyone who happened to go to the Shadow Temple.

Meanwhile, Link was slowly coming up to the room where Bongo-Bongo was waiting to show off his knowledge of different cultures. Link was also blowing up some neat looking statue, claiming that it had looked at him funny. As soon as the statue collapsed, much to both Link's and Navi's excitement, it created a bridge over a bottomless pit of doom that had been blocking Link's progress. "Cool!" Link said cheerfully as he walked carefully over the statue. As soon as he was across he marched straight into the next room, only to be stuck once again. More bottomless pits of doom were in this room, and they were keeping Link from reaching the boss room. "Too bad there aren't any super statues with magical powers! They could get me across no problem!" Link said as he looked around the room for some sort of inspiration. After a while Navi got bored of waiting for Link to come up with something, and so she abandoned her hair-powered tv and flew out from under Link's hat, bringing her gummy-bears and soda with her. "Hey!" she shouted in an attempt to get the boy to come up with something faster.

"I'm thinking, Navi!" Link said in an annoyed tone.

Navi sighed and was about to return to her little house under Link's hat when suddenly she accidentally dropped her soda. "Watch out!" Navi shouted warningly.

Link was able to jump away just in time before the sticky drink hit his head. But, unfortunately, the liquid hit his boots. "Navi! Those were my good boots!" Link shouted as he pulled them off, revealing teddy-bear socks.

"Listen!" Navi said cheerfully.

"I know I have two other pairs, but I liked these the best!" Link said as he stuffed his old boots into his pocket to be cleaned later. He then pulled out the other pairs and examined them carefully. Eventually he decided that he didn't want to go stomping around in his iron boots, and so he slipped on the pair he had just gotten. "Well, now that that's settled, what are we-" before Link could finish, however, he suddenly realized that he was gliding along the floor. He turned his head to see Navi pushing him along, humming happily. "Navi! Stop! We're coming up to the edge!" Link screamed. He quickly shut his eyes when Navi didn't stop pushing him, and he waited with dread for the fall.

When it didn't come he opened his eyes again, and saw to his amazement that he was actually gliding right over the bottomless pit of doom and heading right towards the large door. "Amazing!" Link shouted, and he began to flap his arms around happily. This threw Navi off, however, and as soon as he stopped moving he fell towards the bottom of the bottomless pit of doom. "Noooooo!" Link shouted, and he quickly reached out his hands to find something to hold onto. He somehow managed to grab the ledge of where the boss door was, and after struggling to find a foothold, he managed to pull himself up. "These boots stink!" Link shouted, and he quickly tossed the Hover Boots towards the pit. The boots flew through the air for awhile before stopping in mid air and just hovering there. "Stupid boots, now they're mocking me!" Link shouted, and he decided to waste all of his bombs and arrows as he tried to kill the evil boots. Navi soon decided that watching Link was much more entertaining than her little tv, and she quickly flew up to the ceiling so she could get a better view of the show. After Link had expended all of his weapon ammo, he turned sharply around and went through the door, trying his best to not look back at the still hovering boots.

Once inside the next room, he waited for Navi to catch up before jumping down into a hole through the floor without a second thought. Navi sighed and then followed him down into the room below, where she found Link to be jumping around on a giant drum. "Trampoline! Trampoline!" Link shouted happily as he hopped around. Suddenly he started to fly through the air even higher as something else began to jump on the drum. Navi shouted out a warning when she saw two giant hands banging on the drum, but Link was too busy shouting with excitement to hear her. "It is time for culture!" shouted a loud voice suddenly, causing Link to miss his next landing and collapse on the drum.

"Hey, Navi not so loud!" Link said as he stood up. It was then that he realized that he was still bouncing on the drum slightly. He slowly turned around to see a giant ghost with one eye banging on the drum. "Ghost! Run!" Link screamed. While he desperately started jumping around and trying to get back up the hole, Navi quickly flew up and left the temple completely for the second time. "Hey!" Link shouted as he watched Navi's easy escape.

"Culture time!" the ghost shouted again, and he started to bang faster on his bongo, nearly squashing Link several times.

"Noooooo!" Link screamed as he ran around and dodged the giant, creepy looking hands. "I've had about enough of this!" Link shouted after a few minutes, and he quickly reached into his pocket, still dodging the ghost's bongo playing. Eventually he found what he was looking for, and he pulled out…his old boots! After slipping them on very carefully, so as not to get any of the sticky soda on his hands, he turned to face the giant ghost. "So, giant ghost! Prepare to meet your doom!" he shouted, and he pulled out his bow. He instinctively reached for an arrow and pulled on the bow string before he even realized that he was out of arrows. He soon found this out, however, when the string just gave a small plucking sound. "Darn!" Link shouted, stomping his foot against the drum.

"Hey…you messed up Bongo-Bongo song!" Bongo-Bongo shouted.

"Uh oh…" Link mumbled as he looked up from his bow to see what the ghost was doing. He had stopped hitting his bongo and was currently glaring at Link angrily. "Um…want to use my bow?" Link asked, giving the string another pluck so the ghost could see what to do with it.

The ghost continued to simply glare at the boy.

"Uh…"

"You ruined Bongo-Bongo show! You can tell that owl person that Bongo-Bongo quit, and that Bongo-Bongo never work for him again! …Ever!" The ghost shouted, and he went to the other side of the room to sulk.

"What owl? What are you talking about!?" Link snapped impatiently as he stuffed his useless bow back into his pocket.

"You know…the owl!" the ghost said, sniffling slightly.

"What, Kae…Kabora…however you pronounce it…that owl!? What's he got to do with anything!?" Link asked curiously.

"Well…"

"We got a code red! Code red!" the owl screamed right into Saria's ear.

The girl scowled at him and set her book down calmly. "I don't even know what code red is!" she snapped at him.

"Look!" the owl screeched as he pointed towards the screen.

Saria gasped when she saw that Bongo-Bongo was about to tell Link all about their show. "Code blue! Code blue!" she screamed at the owl.

"Noooo! I already told you, we're doing code red for the important stuff!" the owl said in a whiny voice.

"Oh but, code blue is used for hospital emergencies!" Saria argued. "That means it's urgent!"

"So!? We're not a hospital! We're using code red! It sounds cooler!"

"Whatever, we need to stop Bongo-Bongo before it's too late!" Saria said quickly, and the two were soon running all the way to Kakariko Village.

"I don't care about the owl's childhood, I want to know what he has to do with you!" Link shouted impatiently as the ghost continued to tell him all about what the owl's parents looked like. "And it's creepy that you know so much about him anyway…" Link grumbled.

"Well fine! Be that way! People today are so rude! Anyway, like Bongo-Bongo was saying, when owl person first learn to fly, he-"

"I can't take it anymore!" Link shouted, and he pulled out his sword and started to attack the giant drum in his frustration.

"No! Not Bongo-Bongo drum!" the ghost screeched angrily.

"Oops. Maybe that wasn't such a good idea…" Link said as the ghost's eye began to turn red. "Run run run!" Link screamed, and he began to start jumping around again in a desperate attempt to get back up to the other room.

"Die, Human, die!" the ghost shouted, only to quickly cover his ears when Link gave a high-pitched scream. "Make it stop!" the ghost shouted, and he started to run around frantically. Suddenly he tripped on one of the rips on his drum that Link had previously made. "Noooo!" Bongo-Bongo screamed as he fell to the ground. Items fell out of his pockets and fell ontop of Link, who started to scold the ghost for not keeping a better eye on his things.

"Hey, these are arrows!" Link said happily.

"They are? Bongo-Bongo thought they were quills for writing…" the ghost said as he stood up again. "Ahha! Can't find Bongo-Bongo now, loser!" the ghost shouted suddenly, and he quickly turned invisible except for his hands, which were still visible as they started to slap Link across the face.

"Hey, watch it!" Link shouted, and he quickly shot an arrow out, not even taking the time to aim. Somehow, even though he had been aiming in completely the other direction, he managed to hit one of Bongo-Bongo's hands.

"Ow!" the ghost shouted, but he continued trying to hit Link with his other hand.

"Take this!" Link said, excited that he was actually getting the evil ghost.

After awhile Link managed to hit the other hand, and soon the ghost was trying to run Link over with his giant, one-eyed face, which Link still couldn't see. He could, however, hear the ghost coming, and so the boy was soon running around and shouting for Navi to quit being so lazy and to help him. Eventually Link tripped on the same rip in the drum that the ghost had tripped on. Amazingly enough, something had managed to stay in Link's pocket despite the hole, and this item came flying out of said pocket after Link had hit the ground. Link picked up the item and saw that it was the magnifying glass that he had found in the well, seven years ago, but really just a few hours ago. "Hey, this side is blue, and the other side is red!" Link said, finally looking at it instead of just stuffing it into his pocket. "It must be a 3-D magnifying glass! Now I can see things in 3-D! Amazing!" Link said, and he quickly stuck the lens to his eye and slowly turned around. "The world looks so much bigger now!" he said happily.

Suddenly he saw Bongo-Bongo getting ready to try and run over him once again. Link gave a scream and quickly lowered the Lens of Truth. He then gasped in surprise when the ghost instantly disappeared. "Hmm…" Link hurriedly put the lens back over his eye, and then grinned happily when he was able to see the ghost again. He then put the lens down and watched the ghost disappear, then he put it back to his eye, and watched it reappear. He did this for awhile, until he finally realized that the ghost was getting dangerously close to him.

After screaming for a bit about this, Link started to throw his arrows at Bongo-Bongo, not bothering to waste time using the bow. Finally he managed to hit the giant ghost right in his eye. "Ow!" the ghost screamed. He then became visible and glared at Link while he put his new 3-D magnifying glass away. "You're mean!" the ghost shouted angrily.

"You started it!" Link snapped.

"No, Bongo-Bongo didn't! You did!"

"No, you!"

"Nuhuh!"

"Did too!"

"Did not!"

"Did!"

"Didn't!"

Suddenly Saria and the owl came rushing into the room and threw some water on the ghost before rushing out. "Nooooo, Bongo-Bongo meeeeelting!" the ghost shouted, and it dissolved into a small pool of black, steaming, liquid.

"What happened?" Link asked in a confused voice (the owl and Saria had been so fast that Link hadn't even noticed them come in). "That was weird…" he said, right before he was warped back to the Chamber of Sages. The boy gave an annoyed sigh, "You know, this is getting really annoying!" he shouted. Then he noticed Impa standing in front of him, with her arms crossed and glaring at the boy.

"I hate you!" Impa shouted finally.

"You said that the last time we met," Link said tiredly as he looked around for any sign of Navi.

"Well…I still hate you!"

"Whatever," Link said in a bored voice.

"Hi there! I'm Impa! Sage of Shadow!"

"Right…shouldn't it be Sage of Shadows…or Sage of the Shadows?" Link asked.

"No!" Impa snapped. "I know my own name, foo!"

"What's a foo?"

"It's short for fool, foo! I still hate you! Here, take this!" Impa shouted angrily, and she threw a large, purple colored medallion at him.

This time, Link actually managed to catch the medallion, instead of it hitting him and knocking him out, or it landing in a giant pit of lava that the goddesses had put in for decoration, and then taken out again. While Link was examining the medallion proudly, Impa suddenly began to snicker. "What?" Link asked suspiciously.

"That's not the real medallion, foo! That's a bomb, under cover!" Impa shouted, laughing cheerfully.

"Oh no!" Link screamed, and he quickly threw the medallion away from him, where it promptly blew up right over Rauru, who had been visiting to see how Link was doing.

"Uh oh…" both Link and Impa said nervously as Rauru tried to flatten his hair back down and wipe the black soot from his face, glaring at the two of them the entire time.

"You wanna speed this up a bit, maybe?" Link asked urgently.

"Good idea!" Impa said quickly. "So, on that day, seven years ago, before you tricked Ganondorf into making a wish to make the world a horrible place," Impa began hurriedly, glancing nervously at Rauru every once in a while. "Ganondorf tried to take the Ocarina of Time for himself after he saw pictures of it that Zelda had showed him…"

Flashback…

"And here's me with the Ocarina! Oh, and here's me with the Ocarina! And here's another of me…with the Ocarina!" Zelda said, showing off all of her pictures to a very bored looking Ganondorf, who would then hand the pictures over to his new puppies, who promptly chewed them up. "And here's my parents," Zelda said in a bored voice. Then she instantly brightened when she found another one of her. "And here's me again! That's me over there, riding the horse…with the Ocarina! Say, do you want to hear me play the ocarina?" Zelda asked cheerfully, staring at him with wide eyes.

"Are you sure that's a good idea, Princess?" Impa, who was slightly off to the back of the courtyard, asked.

"Silly Impa, of course it's a good idea! I always have good ideas!" Zelda said, and she went skipping off to find her musical instrument.

"But, that's one of our better props! You'll break it!" Ganondorf protested the minute the girl returned. Impa and Zelda just glared at the man until he quickly sat down. "Ready!" Ganondorf said cheerfully.

"Ok, here we go!" Zelda said, and she began to play.

"Why do you follow her around, anyway?" Ganondorf asked Impa as they both tried to pretend they were enjoying the horrible playing that Zelda was doing.

"She hired me to defeat any other evil scientists, so that she'd be the only one! She's paying me two hundred rupees an hour!" Impa said happily.

"Wow, I should work for her!" Ganondorf commented cheerily.

"Hey, the job's taken, buddy!" Impa said angrily.

"I wasn't going to take yours!" Ganondorf tried to explain, but before he could say anything else, Zelda finished her song, much to the relief of the puppies, who had been hiding behind Ganondorf.

As soon as the ocarina stopped playing, the young dogs came racing out from their hiding place and grabbed the Ocarina of Time from the princess' hands. "Hey! Give that back!" Zelda screeched angrily as the puppies began to try and chew it up.

"No, puppies! No!" Ganondorf shouted as he chased after the dogs.

"Get him!" Zelda shouted. "He wants the Ocarina for himself!"

Impa quickly jumped up and started to chase after Ganondorf, who was still running after the dogs. After a few seconds Zelda got bored of just watching, and she quickly joined in by chasing after Impa and whacking her with a deku stick. "Faster, Impa! Catch him!" Zelda shouted, still hitting her body guard person with the stick. Eventually Ganondorf managed to catch the dogs, and Impa managed to catch Ganondorf, and Zelda was then able to hit both Impa and Ganondorf with her stick. After it broke in half, the group calmly walked back to where they had been sitting before, the puppies prancing around them as they went, wagging their stubby little tails. "So, it doesn't look too bad…" Ganondorf said, examining the ocarina for any signs of teeth marks. Fortunately, none were to be seen.

"Give me that!" Zelda snapped as she snatched her instrument away from the man. "Ewww, it's all slimy!" the princess shouted, holding it away from herself and giving a disgusted look.

"I can clean that!" Ganondorf said nervously.

"It's too late! I'm not showing you anymore pictures ever again!" Zelda shouted angrily.

"Come on, Impa! We need to get out of here and find something to clean this ocarina!"

"Ok…" Impa said, and she went walking off to find a horse. Zelda spent the entire time that Impa was gone just glaring at Ganondorf and keeping the ocarina above her head so that the puppies couldn't grab it again. Ganondorf just looked around nervously under the princess' angry stare. Finally Impa returned, and she and Zelda went stalking off to find an ocarina cleaner.

"Wait, you forgot your gloves!" Ganondorf shouted suddenly when he noticed the white gloves laying on the ground. The man quickly scooped up the gloves, told his puppies to wait for him at his house, and then went running off to find the princess and return the gloves.

Meanwhile, Zelda was continually hitting the gate keeper guy to lower the drawbridge. "Hurry up, man!" she shouted impatiently. Finally she gave up and just had Impa have the horse jump over the moat. It was then that she spotted Link, and she quickly started to throw all of her items at the boy. After shouting at him and scolding him for awhile, she accidentally threw her ocarina at him without realizing it. "Hey, guess what!" she said suddenly, wanting to show off to Link before they got too far away.

"What?" was Link's nervous response.

"I can do special effects!" she shouted, and she proved this by throwing a bunch of her potions together and creating a massive explosion. By the time they had made it through the large dust cloud, Link and the town was far off in the distance. "Now then, to find that ocarina cleaner!" Zelda said happily. "Oh no! I threw it at Link! Nooooooo!"

…End of Flashback…

"So anyway, here's the real medallion!" Impa said quickly as soon as her story was finished.

"Thanks!" Link said, and he quickly stuffed the medallion into his pocket as Rauru slowly got closer and closer.

"Ok, bye now!" Impa shouted, and she quickly blinded everyone with a deku nut. Link was fortunately saved from this, as he was quickly warped back to the graveyard in Kakariko Village.

"That was a close one!" Link said, giving a sigh of relief when he remembered how close Rauru had been getting to them with that angry expression.

"Hey!" a familiar voice suddenly shouted.

"Navi! Where have you been?" Link asked happily.

"Listen! Just one more Spiritual Stone, Link!" Navi said excitedly.

"Hooray!" Link shouted.

"Hey!" Navi cheered along.

"So, where is the last one?"

Both of them were silent as they tried to remember what Sheik had told them before. Remembering back to that time, however, was extremely hard for Link, as that had been the time when he had had that pesky brain damage. Finally Link remembered saying something about dessert, and Sheik looking rather annoyed at him. "The desert! That's where we have to go!" Link said cheerfully. "Of course, it's sort of obvious…that's the only place we haven't been to yet."

"Hey!" Navi said happily, and the two immediately set off for Gerudo Valley, right after getting a few hours rest, playing a few archery games, and buying random stuff that they didn't even need.

Well, Link was really close to finding out about his show today...but nope! Will he ever find out? Who knows! I know I don't, 'cause that chapter hasn't been written yet! It think I'll visit a psychic! They're always fun...especially since there's a Starbucks coffee shop thing right next to the one that lives near me... :-D I just love their hot chocolate!

So, thanks for reading and all that! :-)
