A/N: It's taken so long, and this is pathetically short. I'm so sorry... T.T I'm thinking of switching the writing style to something more normal... Maybe if I ask someone to collab this with me, they can keep me motivated? I haven't been able to focus on this fic well lately. T.T Thanks to the anonymous reviewer who recently yelled at me to post something... I figured this is better than nothing, right? Please don't kill me... I really need help with this fic.
Disclaimer: I wish I owned LoZ, but I don't. Nintendo does, and whoever makes the manga... I just own my plot, made-up monsters and items, and OCs...
Many Thanks To: SoulDea, i-wish-799, and LittlePidgey~!
The Links' personal Weapons (other than their swords and shields, of course!)
-Red has an ice rod, a fire rod, and a slingshot!
-Green has a boomerang, and he's pretty good with it. At the moment, he also has his weird half-dragon-ness, including a tail, wings that he can use to fly, very strong legs, and a clawed right arm with the strength of a dragon...
-Blue has a hammer, of course, which suits his personality perfectly!
-Vio has a bow and a quiver full of arrows, and of course, his ever-present book.
-Shadow has... well, his weird shadow abilities, I guess? mimicking? Also has the Dark Mirror Shield, and that dagger of his. And bombs!
Chapter 27: Splitting up
~Ruto and Rutela's house~
It is now early afternoon and Green, Vio, Shadow and an uncharacteristically quiet Vaati have come to bid farewell to Princess Rutela before they head out to investigate Lake Hylia.
"(Green) Rutela, thank you very much for offering us your hospitality. We'll be sure to... *gulp* f-find your sister, Ruto, so don't worry."
"(Vio) Would you mind telling us where she was headed?"
The younger Zora Princess sighs quietly, looking down at the floor.
"(Rutela) I promised her not to let anyone here in Zora's Domain know where Ruto went, but I doubt she'll mind me telling you. Ruto was planning on swimming out to the island that suddenly appeared in the center of Lake Hylia a few months ago, zora, the one that is always shrouded in a thick fog. I'll lend you one of our rowboats, we keep several on hand for visitors who cannot swim as well as us."
The three "Links" nod, while Vaati doesn't seem to be paying much attention.
"(Green) Thanks, Rutela. We'll check there first."
They begin to walk out of the cottage.
"(Rutela) Wait, zora!"
"(Shadow) What now?"
"(Rutela) There have been sightings of a monster swimming in the waters of Lake Hylia as of late. That is why Ruto went there to investigate. Please be careful, all of you. Try not to be idiots, alright, zora?"
Green laughs while Shadow just sweat drops.
"(Shadow) Princess or not, your definition of "idiot" is just plain odd... ^.^; "
"(Green) Don't worry, we'll be careful. See you soon!"
~Lake Hylia- Island~
"(Shadow) *stretches* Man, those currents were nasty! It's a good thing there were enough of us rowing to fight through it..."
He shoots a glance at Vaati as he says this. Said purple-skinned youth's face is tinged a sickly gray-green as he bends over double, retching into the surf.
"(Vaati) Well, excuse me... for being... seasick..."
'This is pathetic... Being in the center of a tornado doesn't bother me at all, but a little trip through rough waters has me puking... Ugh, I hate boats.'
"(Green) Are you going to be alright, Vaati?"
"(Vaati) ...Y-yeah... Just... need a minute... Go on... ahead... without me..."
"(Green) Are you sure?"
Vaati nods shakily.
"(Vio) Let's get moving, Green."
Shadow stretches, looking bored.
"(Shadow) Hope we finally get to see some real action soon. Catch ya later, midget Sorcerer."
"(Vaati) ...Jerk..."
The three "Links" head off to investigate the island, leaving Vaati behind for the moment.
A/N: Oh so very sorry... T.T ... Anyway... Please review! I don't even care if it's flames or not any more, just please review! I even allow anonymous reviews, too! Pleeeeaaaase? *puppy dog eyes*
