I have no idea what's going to happen here. This might be the end of the series, it might not. With Kimiko and Blu having rescued the Triforce, everything's going to be good again, and I'm not sure how to unfix it. I'm in a jam, and it doesn't look like I'm going to get a second miracle to get myself back out.
If I manage to find something that will allow me to salvage it, it will continue. Don't think that I'm going to force myself to write here, because I won't. If I can't come up with anything that is acceptable, I won't do anything. I won't write a piece of crap just to keep going. If I fail to come up with anything suitable, I'm going to try something else. I've been meaning to re-write Princess No More so it's not so horrible. And I want to finish If Things Were Different. We'll see how it goes. Please excuse this horribly long author's note. I have one last thing to say before I start the chapter.
I didn't forget to explain how Kitsune's mom got stuck in the Sacred Realm, it's just that there are only three POVs I could write from where the character knew, and it hasn't been convenient to write a goddess chapter lately, so I'll tell you now. See, when the ancient sages sealed the Sacred Realm, they got everyone out first, and the only person to get trapped inside was Kitsune's mom, pregnant with Kitsune.
Kimiko's Quest
Chapter 12
Day Six: 1:15 PM
Link's POV
Outside the Spirit Temple (Sacred Realm)
"All we need to do is touch the Triforce and bring it back." The girls moved toward the golden sacred triangles, ready to bring them back to us.
"We'll take care of that." I know, it was a cheesy entrance, but it was fun at the time.
"Mom! Dad! Aunt Zelda! How did you get here?"
"The goddesses let us in just now. Are you okay?"
"Yeah, Dad. I'm fine."
"What about you, Blu?" The fox child still looked shaken.
"We should give her a funeral."
"Huh?"
"Kitsune. The other me. We should bury her."
"You're right, Blu. She deserves it. I know that you two could just do this easily with magic, but I think we should do this the right way, so could you make some shovels instead? And get a coffin ready." Well, the girls did as I asked, and it took us all most of the day to dig a grave big enough. When it was finally finished, we moved Kitsune's body into the coffin. 'After thousands of years, the girl can finally rest in peace,' I thought, just before glancing at Blu. 'Maybe not just yet...'
Blu walked over to the open coffin, sitting there in the ground. "Goodbye, Kitsune." She closed the lid and picked up a shovel. Following her cue, we all pitched in to finish filling in the grave.
I know it's short, but it was meant to be. Before I tell you this, to clear up any confusion, Kimiko's Quest will have one more chapter. Now, I explained my dilemma above, and I've come to two solutions. I won't go into any more detail than to tell you that I'm either going to end the series and start a new story, or I'm going to move on to a fifth part. I can go either way at this point. I'm leaving the choice in your hands. You have one week (until January 10) to vote. So we don't piss off FanFiction.net here, only use the review system to vote if you have an actual review to go with it. Otherwise, e-mail me or IM me. ekgiii@aol.com, AIM ekgiii.
