Hey wonderful peoplez! :3 Here is chapter 11...Enjoy :D
Alas...I don't own LoZ...but i do own this story (mostly) and my ridiculous mind.
"Oh crap….what have I gotten myself into?!" Blue asked himself as Scrub advanced towards him with a maniacal facial expression. Why did I have to open my big fat mouth?
"Hmmm, the question is….which mask to use?" Scrub pondered aloud, prompting the others to pipe in.
"I vote you use the Deku or Goron mask on him." Green suggested looking a little concerned for his 'brother'. "Those would be the funniest options."
"You'll pay for this later Green!" Blue yelled out still trying to escape Paint and Green's hold on him.
"We haven't seen the Zora mask yet…plus we could say we had to get Red and Vio so we could quickly transport a sick Zora to a source of water." Dusk pointed out, clearly opt to see all of the transformations Scrub has.
"It would be pretty hard to drag a Zora or Goron all the way over to the blacksmith's, and it would be really simple to drag a Deku scrub… I say Deku." Paint contributed.
"True, true…but there is a certain way to take off the masks that Blue doesn't know of, I would wait until after he cooperated to tell him how to take it off. That's one of the main reasons why I was stuck as a scrub the first time." Scrub informed them.
"Voting time!" Dusk yelled loudly, but quickly jumped on top of Blue as he had almost escaped Paint and Green. Now with three people on top of him, it was near to impossible for Blue to get out of this one. Ora still decided to stay out of it, though it was getting painful for him to watch, so he excused himself and went to go wait outside.
After Ora left, Scrub took over Dusk's voting thing and took in the answers. "If you vote for Goron say yes." No response came for that one. "Yeah, Blue as a Goron would be dangerous for everyone…" Scrub shuddered, a similar action emanated from the other Links-including the blue one, since he did not want to be anything other than himself. "How about a Zora?"
Both Green and Dusk shouted yes very eagerly. "I would prefer Deku, but I would never see the end of Blue's wrath ever again, and I think Zora would be the least hard on his pride." Green said sticking up for his metaphorical brother, as the 'leader' of the four, Green tried to stay on the good side of his doubles…but then again Blue never really did like anyone telling him what to do, so it really wouldn't be too different.
"Darn, I was hoping for Deku because that's the form I hate most, but Zora will do." Scrub said putting on a grin. He reached into his pouch and fumbled around a bit, until he pulled out a piece of wood resembling the face of a Zora. He put it out in front of him, and began advancing on the blue clad hero, the mask mere inches away from his face, Blue yelled.
"GUYS, JUST STOP NOW! CAN'T DUSK JUST USE HIS WOLF ABILITY OR SOMETHING INSTEAD OF TORTUING ME?!" He pleaded, clearly wanting to stay as himself and not change species suddenly, and against his will.
"Dude I really am sorry….but come on, just this once?" Dusk asked not particularly keen on the idea of using his 'ability' to lie. To scare people…HELL YEAH! But to lie….no, Dusk simply isn't that type of person. Blue scoffed.
"It's not as if I have any choice, three people pinning you down kind of makes escape useless." Blue muttered. Scrub shoved the mask onto his face before any other words could be exchanged, and motioned for Green, Paint, and Dusk to get off of him.
They sat there in silence as they watched the scene play out in front of them. The rest watched Blue as he stood up. He was up, but he was hunched, and it looked really uncomfortable-painful even. That was confirmed when the boy yelped in pain and discomfort.
Blue on the other hand had the strangest sensation coursing through his body, even stranger than the feeling if being split into four different people. Not only was it uncomfortable and strange, it was painful. Three Goddesses it was painful, he yelled louder than he had ever before. Blue felt himself getting taller, growing weird long fins out his forearms, and his head elongating behind him taking the shape of the hat he usually wore. Though in real-time the changes had been fairly quick, it had felt a whole lot longer for Blue. (The appearance of Blue as a Zora is the same as 'Zora Link' but wearing a blue tunic-skirt, and instead of green tints on his 'hat' and other parts of the body, they are dark shades of blue.)
"Enough delay, let's go and get Vio and Red!" Scrub exclaimed happily while the others looked at the blue Zora. Blue himself could do nothing but stare down at himself in shock and anger, while blushing.
"You-you, b-but Huh?" Sky stuttered, after Ravio had removed his hood.
The brunet Link gasped and looked about to take his sword back out until common sense took over. He looks really similar to Dark Link….But those eyes, they're not harsh crimson…they're a brilliant green. I know Ravio is not an enemy no matter where he is from or what he looks like. The wise teen thought.
Ravio under the hood looked very similar to the Links, but had dark black hair and deep green eyes. He also had slightly darker skin.
"Almost everyone in Hyrule has a Lorulian counterpart, and I happen to be Link's-er Mr. Hero's since you share names. Downside to that is, Mr. Hero has unmeasurable courage….I on the other hand am a coward." Ravio said with his head hung.
"Why do you wear that hood and scarf?" Spirit asked after the daze wore off. "And why a bunny…..a pink/purple bunny?" Do have to admit, it's a lot easier talking to him when you can actually see his face and know what he is feeling. Spirit thought wile grinning internally.
"Like I said earlier I somehow gathered enough courage-took a long time- to travel to Hyrule, and I have been helping Mr. Hero by selling him items…..I need the rupees ya know. They're kinda more important than life itself!" Ravio said with a chuckle, as if it were an inside joke. (1) After he was done chuckling, he regained a serious look. "Anyways, again I needed to keep my identity until I show him later. I look exactly like him but with different 'coloring' you could say." He continued. "Oh, and as for the bunny look of it….well that's a funny story."
"Well don't leave us hanging, we wanna hear it!" Spirit said enthusiastically. Well he was the only 'kid' in the group-being 12 while the others were in their teens.
The Lorulian adopted a thoughtful and bemused look as he thought of where to start with the story.
Just as Ravio opened his mouth, a rustling could be heard pretty close to where they were standing. Ravio's hands shot immediately to the back of his head where his hood was. Sheerow helped him to pull it on quickly so that no one else could see his face, and see he wasn't from the so called 'Light World'.
Halfexpecting another 'Link' to walk out towards them, no one was prepared for what actually did show itself. They were too busy expecting big things to imagine something normal…though you can't exactly blame them, what with the weird day or so they have been having. That's why when a rabbit hopped out of a bush right in front of them, they jumped in fright and surprise.
"That's actually pretty ironic huh?" Sky said with a laugh, after he got over the shock of seeing the rabbit. "You know….the bunny, and you Ravio….especially since we were just talking about it…..yeah no. Ok I'll shut up now." Sky said embarrassed since the others were looking at him with clear expressions of 'seriously?', and yes even with the hood on it was easy to tell Ravio was giving that look….it burned right through the fabric. Sky looked at the ground avoiding eye-contact after his attempt to be funny. How come I only ever got Zelda to laugh? Sky thought bitterly. Even back on Skyloft…huh, you don't think it was forced do you? He asked to himself in third person.
"Sky….just no, please no." The teen who was found unconscious on the trails a little while ago said while looking at the latter and reaching up to pat him on the back in a 'there, there' kind of manner.
"Hey, I kind of promised that Rabbitland Rescue guy I told you about earlier, that I would catch bunnies for him, so you guys wanna help me capture him? They are actually pretty hard to catch, since they like to run away after a while." Spirit pointed to the small mammal, holding out his rabbit net.
The currently unnamed Link smiled and took the net out of the kid's hands abruptly-making Spirit flinch- and started to chase after the rabbit. The bunny in question seemed to know what was conspiring, since he was deliberately tricking the boys and even snickering at them.
"Ugghh, I freaking hate rabbits!" The Hero of Worlds cursed, but stole a glance at the Lorulian. "….N-no offense Ravio…"
Ravio threw up his arms in an exasperated manner and yelled: "I'M NOT AN ACTUAL RABBIT, YOU KNOW!"…which surprisingly did not scare the real rabbit away. The Lorulian -after his outburst- decided to hang back and watch the fun, he had to admit, and it did look certainly absurd and hilarious the way they were chasing after a rabbit….and losing terribly. The rabbit-on all levels- was winning at everything….cunning, stamina (Which Sky had a surprisingly little amount of), and -strangely enough- sarcasm. Everything about that rabbit was seething sarcasm…seething. It was purposely toying with the three boys clad in green…which is why it didn't run away for quite some time.
"Dude, you need to cooperate, especially since Sky over there apparently doesn't have any stamina!" Spirit hollered to the unnamed Link.
"Hey! …Actually…*pant*... I guess…*hack*... you are kind of...*huff*…right." Sky panted, then promptly collapsing from the exhaustion of chasing a rabbit around in circles while not very gracefully avoiding the other Links. They all crashed into each other at least 5 times.
After a while, the bunny grew tired of the games and sprinted away. "That…was embarrassing." The Hero of Worlds sighed with his hand on his forehead, looking at his boots.
"No kidding." Spirit replied dryly. "Hey guys, a thought just dawned on me…we haven't given you a nickname yet." He gestured to the brunet Link.
"Oh, yeah…I never really thought about that, considering everyone just usually calls me Link." He responded "My hero title is Hero of Worlds…maybe World? I did/still do travel around a lot-heck I get lost a lot too, Hyrule is too damn confusing." The hero dubbed World said.
"You said it right mate" Sky said, stretching his arms, and Ravio snorted.
"Let's start on the way towards Aboda Village again, it's going to get dark soon. You three can crash at my house tonight….that is if my roommate, old Niko allows it-he's pretty chill, so we'll be fine I think.
The three heroes and the Lorulian boarded the train, and set off again towards their destination, the light of the twilight illuminating everything on New Hyrule field beautifully.
While everyone was gazing out the train windows at the iridescent dusk lighting, they never noticed the flash. The sky stayed the same- twilight. The only things that alerted the passengers and even the conductor, that anything different happened, was the sudden lack of rails, the train abruptly screeching, and being jerked forwards- getting flung out of the train, and landing in a thorn bush. Sky however was the luckiest, for he-instead of the thorn bush- hit the side a tree, and collapsed in front of it.
"Link….that you?" A high-pitched female voice called out. "Link, it IS you!" The voice sounded happy…but that quickly changed. "HOW COULD YOU LEAVE POOR OL' MIDNA ALONE?! DO YOU KNOW HOW LONG I WAS LOOKING FOR YOU?!" The voice-coming from someone named Midna boomed.
"'It sure is boooorrring around here!'" Zant exclaimed, stretching his arms above his head.
"REFRENCES LIKE THAT AREN'T ALLOWED HERE! ….'MEH BOI!'" Ghirahim yelled at Zant from across cells. "….Heh, heh I kind of HAD to make that reference as well." Ghirahim chortled whilst striking a pose-one arm raised the other on his hip, he also had his head tilted upwards….it made him look like he was trying to be famous.
"And maybe when you're done with the horrible references we can go 'bust some dodongos'." Vaati chuckled. This-totally ignoring the fact that they were all very evil beings-caused hysterical laughter to explode along the halls of the prison. The laughter was contagious, even some of the villains who were too dignified to laugh at such pitiful jokes-like Demise, Onox, and some of the Gannon/Gannondorfs- joined in with booming laughter.
A couple calls could be heard along with the chuckling like a couple 'Dodongos?!' and even a 'Shhh, it's a secret to everybody!' was heard.A good while later the hysterical laughter died down to a couple of chuckles…now all that could be heard was various greedy gulps of air and people/creatures picking themselves off the floor.
"Eee hee hee!….Wait I don't get it." Zant said with his hand on the chin of his mask.
"Typical, you're the one who caused all this….and you don't even understand what you even said. YOU MORON!" Twilight Gannondorf snapped back. Why did I even work with him in the first place…? I'm sure I could have gotten out of the Twilight Realm by myself…even without my body. Twilight thought bitterly to himself.
An explosion of bubblish complaining came next… this coming from the giant squid-thing Bellum. It seemed as if Bellum was trying to make fun of Twilight and Zant…but failed miserably due to the facts that, A: No one could even understand him properly, and B: He's kind of a giant squid. You lose respect for that kind of thing.
"You! Shut up, no one wants to hear it, Bellum!" Ocean Gannondorf complained whilst covering his ears with his robe sleeves. Thus causing squeals, mocking, and more complaints to come out of Bellum.
"You know, octopus, you sound as if someone put your head into a blender… turned it up to the highest setting, and then tried to drown you." Ghirahim announced, putting his hand over his eyes. "And let me tell you….IT"S NOT PLEASANT! It's better than the 'Sky Child'…but not by much, and still makes my ears bleed."
"Hah, nice one!" Vaati outstretched his hand through the 'bars' to fist-bump the demon sword spirit. It was utterly rejected, and Vaati awkwardly held his arm out. "Come on, don't leave me hanging!" He urged.
Instead of getting want he wanted, Vaati's hand was grabbed by one of Majora's tentacle-thingies, and yanked against the cell wall, where he continuously got slapped into it painfully. "Y-you do…realize I-I'm a…w-wi-wind mage r-right?!" He yelled while still being shaken and pummeled into the wall.
"That does not matter to Majora. Majora is all powerful." Majora called back.
Vaati sent harsh wind, lightning, and hail towards the assaulter, actually causing the mask to shudder, and flinch back. The former Minish stood and dusted himself off. "See? You don't mess with Vaati, the Wind mage!"
"PUNY. LIFE. FORM. YOU. CANNOT. GO. UNPUNISHED. BY. MAJORA!" The floating mask screeched, causing Vaati to immediately lose his tough-guy face, and look horrifyingly up at the vibrantly colorful mask of death.
"The day I get out of here, and destroy the pitiful goddesses, and that worthless 'hero' will be the day that all of you will realize my ranking of a god, and THAT I WAS THE ONE THAT PERMITTED YOU TO EVEN LIVE IN THE FIRST PLACE!" Demise muttered out loud, over the torture session that was currently going on.
"I believe that we just got threatened again…" Nayru said, a look of thought on her face.
"Oh hun, don't we always get threatened by Power?" Farore replied while glaring at Din as if it were her fault.
"Hey, if I recall correctly, Courage had threatened us a bunch of times too." Din snapped back at her sister.
"Only a couple of times…..but those were for good reasons, like when the Hero of Time in the child timeline got stuck as a Deku scrub the first and second times. Or when the Hero of Hyrule and Koholint got turned into a rabbit in the dark world." Farore argued back, intent on winning. "In reality all we really get it from, is Power. Oh and what about Wisdom? I think I remember getting threatened at least one time from Wisdom." She continued. She and Din looked over at Nayru expectantly, trying to get the blame off of themselves.
"Sisters, calm yourselves, were goddesses for crying out loud." Naryu looked stern at her divine sisters. "We have strayed from our main concern. We need to pay attention to make sure nothing bad happens to Courage, since we couldn't contain them like we did to Power. We wouldn't want anything too crazy to happen while we were arguing." Nayru advised wisely. "Where were-" She gasped, and motioned for her sisters to come to her side.
"What's wrong?" Din asked rushing to the goddess of Wisdom's side.
"The H-hero of Trains, Worlds, Hylia's Chosen Hero, and the New Hero of Hyrule's Lorulian counterpart j-just appeared in another world…" Nayru stammered uncharacteristically.
"Hun, that's kind of been happening a lot recently." Farore comforted Nayru.
"What world did they get sent to?" Din asked with force.
"T-to the Hero of Twilight's Hyrule, but-" Nayru was cut-off, by the goddess of Power.
"Oh thank the Triforce…I thought you were going to say something like Termina!" Din visibly shuddered. "What's so bad about that particular Hyrule?"
Nayru looked uncertain, but spoke up anyway. "The problem is that the hero from that world is not currently there…so now there are a couple of incarnations of Courage in an unknown Hyrule without anyone who actually knows where or what everything is." Nayru finished, her oceanic blue eyes slightly clouded.
"Isn't the Twilight Princess, Midna-I think- there? Can't she help them?"
"Think about Midna, then rethink your question. Her personality will most likely take over…" The goddess of Wisdom shot back.
"Well since we have to pay attention so nothing else like this happens, might as well enjoy the show!" Farore exclaimed sitting on a recliner-that seconds ago was not there-and leaning back.
"Works for me, though if something bad is about to happen, we will reach in and discreetly help….got it?" Din asked sternly, before sitting in a separate recliner. Nayru watched both of them through a face palm, but fought against better judgment and sat down beside them.
(1) In the game 'A Link Between Worlds' if you walk next to Ravio's rupee bag, he'll yell at you to leave the bag alone, since it contains things that are more important than life itself.
Thanks to Andrea231 for following and favoriting!
