GDL: To celebrate the fact I got Microsoft Word for Christmas, I'm going to type my new chapter on Microsoft Word. Anyway, to the reviews!

TwilightZelda: Yup, last one was long, but this one's the longest chappie for young Catherine and young Link. Now I get to have my take on the part with Ruto. XD

pheonixXxwolf: Yep, teleporting will be convenient. I'll be able to update more now since I'm on Christmas break. Yay! D

Catherine: GDL does not own the Legend of Zelda. If she did…well she wouldn't be here. xD She doesn't own the song, "Slither" by Velvet Revolver, either.

GDL: It's a kick ass song though. Anyway, on with the story!

Chapter 14: Slither-Velvet Revolver

We followed the moat around the gate to Hyrule Castle Town to Zora's River. On cue, Kaepabora Gaeabora was there waiting for us. He called to us, "Hoo hoo! Looks like you've gotten bigger and stronger already, Link and Catherine! Just ahead lies Zora's Domain. The Zoras serve Hyrule's Royal Family by protecting this water source. Their door will not open for anyone except those who have some connection with the Royal Family. Let them hear the melody of the Royal Family! Hooo hoo hoooot!" We said nothing about what happened and continued on until we got to the waterfall guarding Zora's Domain. Link read out loud what the small plaque thing under our feet said, "Sleepless Waterfall. The flow of this waterfall serves The King of Hyrule. When the King slumbers, so do these falls." Under the inscription was the mark of the royal family, The Triforce. Link and I took out our instruments and played Zelda's lullaby. The waterfall parted into two, revealing a door in which lead to Zora's Domain. I stated, "This breaks the law of physics." Link just shook his head with a sigh. I guess he didn't like me having a witty or dumb comment for situations such as these. Raven just laughed. We walked through the door to where our next adventure would await.

When we got inside, all you could see were the pretty blues that were reflected by the water. Before Link could say anything, Raven, Cali, and I all squealed, "OMG THIS PLACE IS SO PRETTY!!!!" Once again, he sighed, but this time he smiled as well. Well, it was more of a smirk. Before I could do anything, he pushed me into the water. He laughed hysterically while I yelled, "DUDE THAT'S NOT COOL, WHAT'D YOU DO THAT FOR?" He couldn't say a thing; he was just laughing and jumped into the water. When he finally swam over to me he said, "Merely because I wanted a good laugh." We both got out of the water soaking wet. I grabbed his hat and threw it back into the water as far as I could. He fumed and jumped back into the water to get it. Now it was my time to laugh. Link eventually came back and hit me with his hat. I just snickered. Anyways, because it was night, we all hid somewhere and made a place to sleep for the night. Link's dream was the one he had at the beginning of the game, mine was the same except I was there and Raven was riding off with Zelda, throwing something behind her like Zelda did. Raven just dreamed of guys she thought were hot and all the other crazy and stupid things she dreams about. When it was time to wake, Link was the first up. I got up second, but Raven wouldn't wake up. I took out my slingshot and pelted her head with a couple deku seeds. She groaned and asked, "Was that necessary?" I snickered for a bit and said, "Pretty much. Anyway, you need to go back to Zelda. Don't ask why, just think of it as starting to fulfill your destiny, ok?" She nodded and ran off.

Link asked, "What was that about?"

"I had a dream like yours, Raven was riding off with Zelda, so I told her to go back to her. I was there with you."

Link said, "Well that must be a dream that tells the future, like Zelda's did. So maybe you and Zelda have the same power of premonition?"

I nodded and said, "Yes, that must be the case."

Link and I headed off to see the King of the Zoras. When we got there, we realized he was the fattest fish ever. He was mumbling, "Oh, my dear, sweet Princess Ruto...Where has she gone? I'm so worried..." I ran off to the left where the diving game is. Link asked, "Where are you going?" I simply replied to his question, " Follow me! We're going to play the diving game for a scale, and then we're going to go through the warp to Lake Hylia to find something that will lead us to the Princess's whereabouts." Link agreed to this. We paid the guy the money. Link jumped off first. I was a bit shaky at first, but eventually jumped off and got the rest of the rupees before time ran out. The guy yelled down to us, "Great job! Bring the rupees back up here, I have a reward for you!" We ran back up to the zora guy, who rewarded us each with a silver scale. I jumped off the waterfall again and dove through the portal to Lake Hylia. Link followed me.

When we got there, all you could see is the crystalline blue of the lake. At the bottom were a few rupees encircling something that looked like a bottle. Link dove down and picked it up. I asked, "What does it say?" even though I already know. He took it out and read out loud, "I am princess Ruto, if you are reading this letter, please save me, I'm in Lord Jabu-Jabu's belly. Signed, Ruto. P.S. Don't tell my father." I sighed, because I knew Link would want to go save her. I followed him back to Zoras' Domain. We went to the king and handed him the letter in the bottle. He gasped and said, "Ho, this letter! It's from Princess Ruto!! Hmmm...Let's see...

She's inside Lord Jabu-Jabu? That's not possible! Our guardian god, Lord Jabu-Jabu, would never eat my dear Princess Ruto!But since that stranger, Ganondorf, came here, Lord Jabu-Jabu has been a little green around the gills... The evidence seems clear. Of course, you'll go find Ruto. You can pass through here to the altar of Lord Jabu-Jabu. I'll keep this letter. You keep the bottle it was in. Take it respectfully!

Please find my dear Princess Ruto immediately... Link and Catherine!" And then…he started to move veeeeeery slowly. Eventually…Link and I fell asleep. Around an hour and a half later, he was finally done moving his fat ass out of the way. Though, I would never say that out loud. Link was about to run up the small set of steps, but I ran the other way. He called to me, "Where are you going with that bottle?" I ran to the small pond where the fishies were without telling Link what I was doing. Oh well, he'll find out. I ran back to him and we went to Jabu-Jabu's fountain place. Link marveled at the largeness of it.

Before he could do anything, I swam away to a small island with a huge rock backed up next to the wall. Before Link could ask, I blew up the wall and walked into the small cavern. It was another great fairy's fountain. Link and I played Zelda's Lullaby on the triforce mark and a shrilling laughter echoed through the cavern. Another great fairy appeared. She stated, "I'm the great fairy of magic. I'll give you a magic power. Receive it now!" Link got Farore's Wind, and I got…something. I don't know what. And then…I started hearing Link's thoughts. "I wonder why Catherine didn't get anything…Or did she? Eh, no use thinking about it." I snickered for a few seconds. This could be a well worthy power. I can spy on Link's thoughts whenever I want. Then, she realized Link could hear HER thoughts too. How? Because he said, "Or we can talk telepathically and I can block you out when I want" A smirk was on his face when he thought this. Catherine sighed and they walked out of the small cavern.

They got back to the platform with Jabu-Jabu. Catherine let the poor fish out of its bottle, just to be eaten by the huge fish. He opened his large deity-like mouth, and then swallowed the fish hole, with us along for the ride. I was going to be in a huge fish. Disgusting. When we showed up inside, Link was glaring at me. I said, "What? We needed to get in here SOMEHOW. So, we got eaten, and now I'm sickened." Link just sighed. We seem to get on each other's nerves a lot, don't we? Oh well. Anyway, we ran through the first room, and I hit the yellow switch with a deku seed, opening the door. In the next room were a few Biris and a couple boxes. We passed by all of these and went through the door. Sadly, when we got in there, we found the bih-I mean Ruto. (You know what she was going to say, right? XD) Anyway, she glared at us and scoffed, "You? Who are you? I am Ruto, Princess of the Zoras. What? Are you saying my father asked you to come her to save me? I'd never ask anyone to do such a thing! "Letter in a Bottle?" I have no idea what you're talking about! My father is worried about me? I don't care! Anyway, I can't go home right now. And you... Get out of here! Understand?" She went to walk away, but fell down a hole and screamed, "Ooooh Noooooo!" I begged him silently to not go down, but he did anyway. I sighed and jumped down as well. When we fell down next to Ruto, she started yelling at us again, "Are you still hanging around here? I told you to go away! I'm OK. I've been going inside Lord Jabu-Jabu's belly since I was little, but...Lord Jabu-Jabu is very strange today...There are electrified jellyfish and strange holes around...On top of that, my precious stone was...but...That's none of your business! Anyway...You! Go home now! Understand?" We didn't go away, which made her finally sigh and say, "You're that worried about me? Then I will give you the honor of carrying me! However...I won't leave until I find the thing I'm looking for. You'd better believe me!" Link cringed and looked over me with a weird look in his eye. I wonder what he was thinking at that moment…oh well. Link reluctantly picked up Ruto and we went into the room behind where Ruto was standing.

In this room were a platform, water, and another platform. In the water were the evil stingray things that sting you when they hit you. Link jumped into the water and threw Ruto onto the other side. Then he hit the switch, and we swam to the other side before the time ran out. We then ran into the next room, Ruto in tow, and jumped onto the elevator-like platform, which took us back to where we started. We made our way back to the room filled with weird looking holes and biris, and went into the door at the end of the room. There was a room with a huge three-break fork. In the middle of it all were electrocuting snake things. We ran past them as fast as we could. I ran to the right, making Link follow. (A/n: You know, I learned recently that Link is actually a real boy's name. It means, "Colony" just a random fact) Link stepped on the switch with Ruto, making the door open. We ran into the door, a time limit started, and a bunch of stingray things came out of the floor. Link and I shot them all down, making a huge chest open. I stated, "You know what? I'm starting to hate the enemies in this dungeon." Link opened the chest, bringing out 2 boomerangs. One contained a ruby, and the other contained a sapphire. I took the one with the sapphire, considering Link got the one with a ruby in the game. We ran off with Ruto to the room next to this one. There was a weird looking thing in the middle of the room; that was trying to attack us. Cali tried to say, "That thing looks like a guy's di-," but I stopped her, and started to snicker. Link and I locked onto it and hit it about 5 times with our boomerangs, making it be destroyed. We ran out of there and made our way to the next room. This one, we had to leave Ruto behind on a switch. This was the second of the weird things that destroyed the pillars of slime. We destroyed it, and moved to the next room with the last pillar thing, that Cali thinks looks like a men's body part. Which is definantly something Cali would think, because she has a dirty mind. We went back to the room of the holes, and fell down the one that the slime pillar thing was blocking before. Going into the room that was where we fell, I did a little dance, knowing what would happen next. Ruto squealed, "That's it! That's what I've been looking for! Throw me up there! Onto the platform!" Link gratefully threw her up on the platform. Ruto took the Zora's Sapphire in her hands. Navi sighed and said, "Princess Ruto got the spiritual stone! But why Princess Ruto?" Ruto started to rant again, "Oh my goodness! I finally found...My mother's stone...I got very upset when Lord Jabu-Jabu swallowed it...While I was feeding him, he suddenly swallowed me! I was so surprised I dropped it inside...But, now that I've found it; I don't need to be in here anymore! So, take me home, right now!" Before Link could oblige, the platform rose up, making Ruto scream. I smirked, but then Ruto screamed, "Keeeyah! What is this? An octopus?" A huge octorock..octopus looking thing fell down from the platform. I tried to tell Link my plan, "We should-," but Link interrupted me," We should double-team it. One of us stunning it by hitting it in the face with the boomerang, the other hitting its but with their sword." I nodded. Great minds think alike. Though I hate this mini boss, we put the plan into action. I attacked its face with my boomerang, making it stunned. Link attacked its green flashing butt with his sword, which made the mini-boss spin around and chase Link. Link then stunned it's face, and I attacked its butt with my sword. Then it was my turn again, and we flip-flopped until it finally died. The platform turned to normal, which took us to a new room.

Link bottled a fairy, and we went into the next room. In here were 3 weird red wobbly things. Disgusting. Link stunned one of them and jumped on it. He did the same for the other two and made it to the next door. I did what Link did and made it to where Link was. We went into the next room. In this room was a really high pillar thing, a switch behind a see-through wall, and a bunch of biri. I took care of them, and Link completed the puzzle in the room, which took like 20 minutes until he got it right. We ran around and got hearts, and went to the door before the boss. We readied ourselves, and reluctantly walked into the boss room.

When we walked inside, a cackling sound was heard. It was a bunch of biri surrounding Barinade. The biri became appendages to the boss, and Barinade attached itself to the ceiling. Link and I locked on, and attacked its tentacles with our boomerangs, while jumping out of the way of its electric shocks. Eventually, it came unattached to the ceiling, and the biri came off of Barinade. We took care of 4 of them, and then Barinade re-attached itself to the ceiling. We did what we did before, and destroyed the rest of the biri. Barinade started spinning, and I declared, "Uh, I think we made it pissed." We dodged it the best we could and hit it with our boomerangs. The boss then dug a hole in the ground. We locked onto it again and jumped out of the way of the blasts of electricity, and eventually hit it. Link then slashed it with its sword until it started spinning again. We did the same thing, and I hit it with my sword. We continued this until Barinade was destroyed. It turned into a nasty blob of nothingness and exploded into green goo of nastiness. Link and I took our heart containers and went over to the blue light, where Ruto the bitch was waiting for us. She had a scowl on her face and said, "You...You're late! What took you so long? You're useless! I was just lonely, that's all...Just a little!!" We warped to the water outside of Jabu-Jabu.

Ruto completely ignored me, but got up close and personal with Link. Noticing that she was invading his personal space, he fell back into the water. If looks could kill, Ruto would be dead. Sadly, that isn't the case. She had a flirtatious look in her eyes, and jumped in the water with Link. She said, "You! You looked cool...cooler than I thought you would, anyway...Just a little! Well, anyway, you saved me, so I guess I'll reward you. What do you wish? Just tell me..." I growled and swam over to where the little scene was happening. Link demanded, "I want that spiritual stone!" I just scowled the whole time this was going on, when really I wanted to curse Ruto out. Maybe I'm just over protective, or it could be something more. Either way, it's an excuse to hate Ruto. Ruto had a flirtatious grin on her face and said, "You mean the Spiritual Stone of Water, Zora's Sapphire, don't you? My mother gave it to me and said I should give it only to the man who will be

my husband. You might call it the Zora's Engagement Ring!" I could tell Link was really regretting asking for it. And this makes me pissed. It took all my will power not to dive after Ruto and ring her neck. She smirked and declared, "All right! I'll give you my most precious possession: Zora's Sapphire!" A pretty blue light came over Ruto and my favorite Spiritual Stone came from her, Zora's Sapphire. Link went to take the spiritual stone, but I grabbed it from him. I then mumbled, "Her precious possession? You don't know what this means, but you've finally collected all three spiritual stones! Go to see princess Zelda!" I pocketed the gem and swam off. Link asked the fairies, "What's her problem?" They all sighed and yelled out for the world to hear, "YOU'RE CLUELESS!" Link swam off to catch up with Catherine.

GDL: Tadah! The longest Young Link/Young Catherine chappie! And now you see that Catherine loathes princess Ruto, and I get to do my favorite chapter next! Yay! Anyway, Reviews would be nice.
