This is it. The moment you've all been waiting for. Blu's worst nightmare. I'm not sure if that's literal or not... I dunno, Blu, what do you think?
Luna-Blu: Yes. (censored) is like my biggest fear. Caz' I'm one of those people who HAVE to know what comes next. And you never know with (censored). Like anyone came back to tell you what happens. VERY literal.
Guru-Guru: Wow. It seems that I can emulate your character better and better every day. For the readers, this author's note has been an actual conversation between me and the real Blu. Now, on with the story!
Kimiko's Quest
Chapter 7
Day Six: 12:00 PM
Blu's POV
The Dead Pathways
"Oh! I've always wanted to go to the Spirit Temple! You remember those stories your dad told us about that place? I remember him telling us that you can just feel this...this...something in the air. Are we almost there! Come on! Let me see the map!"
"I'm sorry Blu, but you'll find out in a couple hours. I swear."
"This had better be good, Kimiko. I've been wondering about this for a week."
"Don't worry, Blu. It won't be good, but I think you'll understand when you see it."
"Whatever. Hey, we're here!" The ground had bee moving upwards ever since we started moving east from the Shadow Temple. We were now on top of a wall that surrounded the Desert Colossus. Well, I guess you couldn't call it that, exactly. The whole thing was green. There were holes in the wall that let us look out over the whole thing, but for some reason, something was always blocking my view of the front of the Spirit Temple. I couldn't see Triforce's altar, either.
Anyway, the path had led us to where the goddess of the sand's arms would have been. As soon as we got inside, I could feel something in the air, some kind of power, I think. I also felt that the place was somehow familiar, but I couldn't quite place how...
"Blu? Come on, are we going back to Hyrule or not?"
"Oh, I'm sorry. Yeah, let's go." I'll never get used to that feeling, the feeling of going from one dimension to another. It's like every tiny piece of you is ripped apart and put back together somewhere else, but it doesn't hurt. "Whoa...I'm dizzy..."
"Come on. We've got to climb all the way down to the entrance to get to the other warp. At least Dad cleared this place out already."
"Couldn't we just jump, or use the Requiem of Spirit?"
"Supposedly, all of the warp pads are out right now. Something about running out of energy. I don't think that Nabooru has gotten around to going to the Temple of Light to recharge it, so that's not an option. And it's too far of a fall. We'd end up burying ourselves in the sand."
Well, it was a long walk through the temple to get to the bottom, but I enjoyed all of it. Just the atmosphere in this place was enough to put me in heaven. I could almost hear this music playing, some kind of mystical music. I loved it. All too soon, we were standing in front of the exit. I was just putting my ocarina to my lips, when a man clothed in green ran in.
"WAIT! Girls, I've been trying to catch you for the past three days!"
"Dad, can't it wait? We're almost there. The Triforce is sitting right outside the temple!"
"Listen. I had to find you to apologize for the other day. I shouldn't have tried to keep you from going. I know that it's important that you two get the Triforce back, and I'm sorry." The look on his face was one of pure guilt and shame.
"I'm sorry, too, Dad. I didn't mean to talk to you the way I did, and I really didn't mean to cause that big explosion in the Sacred Forest Meadow. I hope none of you got hurt."
"Nah, that just scared us a little. It's going to take a lot for us to get used to you, now that you have those new powers."
"It's taking a lot for me to get used to them, too."
"Hey, you're not the one that's been following the most friggin powerful mage in the entire history of Hyrule for five days! You know how freaky some of the stuff you've done is?!" I remarked, my voice dripping with false anger.
"Sorry 'bout that, Blu. Dad, we really have to be going now. The sooner we get the Triforce, the better, and Blu's about to find out about...well, you know."
"Yeah. Well, be careful. I have a feeling there's something else out there you need to worry about. I should be going, too. I sent Epona back to the Temple of Time, since I can't get through the Wasteland backwards, and Rauru's the only sage that's gotten around to fixing his warp..."
"Uh-huh. The others really need to get to that. Well, bye Dad!" We all played our ocarinas. Link finished his song first, and the last thing Kimiko and I saw before going back to the Sacred Realm was several balls of yellow light, taking Link back to the place where this whole thing started. "Blu, before we walk outside, you need to prepare yourself for this. Nayru wasn't kidding when she said that it was the worst thing you could possibly imagine. I kept the map from you because I didn't want you to see this until now."
"What in the name of Din are you...talking...about..." Just then, we walked outside and I saw it.
Me.
Dead.
Wow. That came a lot sooner than I expected. Yeah, that's the worst thing she should have been able to imagine. The thing that only two other people knew is that things don't rot in the Sacred Realm. I feel bad, now. The secret pics will go up on the site as soon as I get around to fixing it. If you want to see them now, they're hidden there. Clicking on each of the first three ocarinas in the background will take you to them. Blu would like me to ask you not to click on the middle one, because she doesn't really like it. It's just an inked version of the first one, so you won't miss anything. Well, that's all for now!
Luna-Blu: Yes. (censored) is like my biggest fear. Caz' I'm one of those people who HAVE to know what comes next. And you never know with (censored). Like anyone came back to tell you what happens. VERY literal.
