CHAPTER FIVE: THE VILLAGE
Shimie saw Laura get hit in the head by a familiar Shiekah face. It was Noruko, the villages guardian. Shimmie was ready to attack, to get Laura out of immidiate danger untill she saw Noruko do something that she had never seen him do before.
Noruko picked up the crystal sword, put it in Laura's sheath, picked up Laura, and headed towards the village.
"He knows?! I thought for sure that he was going to kill her!!" Shimmie said, surprised. She decided that she had seen enough of the forest today, and decided to get back to the village before Noruko found out she was gone.
***
Noruko carried Laura to the village. "I'm sorry. If you only knew why I attacked, then you would understand, Heroine of Hope." Noruko said.
He carried Laura into the village. As he walked to the medicine elders house, women, childeren, everyone stopped everything to stare at what Noruko carried in his arms.
"Do not worry! She is not the cursed demon that has been released to destroy this world!" Noruko said. People were still tensed, though most went back to what they were doing. Noruko carried on to the medicine elders.
He entered the hut with the unconscious thirteen year old. It was larger than normal huts because it occationally held a patient, but it was still small. It was filled with the aroma of herbs and spices. There were shelves packed with herbs, tonics, potions, and medicines. There were a couple of beds, but usually those who were recovering from illness laid on a mat untill they were healed, or they were to old to recover and died.
The hut was empty for the exception of an old Shokuan hag working at the way back at a table. Even the table was strewn with medical tonics.
"Miuska!" Noruko said to get the old hags attention. She turned around. She sighed inwardly. "Have I not taught you anything? People outside the villiage are ones to die." Miuska said before she turned back around to contuniue on with her work.
"She's the Heroine of Hope." Noruko stated simply.
Miuska turned around and glared at Noruko. "Fine, set her on the bed. I guess we really don't have proof to say she's evil, do we?" Miuska said.
"We don't have the proof that she's not evil, for the exception of this." Noruko pulled the Crystal Sword out of Laura's sheath. Miuska turned around to look at the sword. "Oh my! Is that what I think it is?!" Miuska said. Not giving an answere, Noruko set Laura onto the bed.
"I will take care of her now. Please. Leave me be to my work." Miuska said. Noruko nodded, and walked out of the hut.
***
Zelda looked through a portal that she and the other sages had created to see into the Mystic Realm. They were watching over Link.
"His heart beat slows," Rauru said. "If he does not get the antidote in two days, he will die."
Zelda cringed at the thought of that. 'Please hurry, Laura.' Zelda thought. She made a prayer to the godesses, then continued to watch over the dying Link.
***
Miuska finished wrapping Laura's shoulder in a bandage that was dipped in healing herbs. Just then, did Shimmie walk in. Miuska turned around.
"You must learn how to walk quieter. Even the dead can hear you, girl." Miuska said. "Sorry, Miusky-san." Shimmie said. Shimie was the only person in the tribe that called Miuska Miusky-san.
"How is she? I saw Noruko carry her in here. Will the Heroine of Hope be alright?" Shimie asked, careful not to say that she was spying on Noruko when he attacked.
"She is fine. Just a wound to the shoulder and a little concussed, but she should be conscious in about an hour or so." Miuska replied. "I need rest. I have been up to long working on potions. May I ask you this- can you watch over the lass while I retire for the day?" Miuska said. "Sure thing, Miusky- san." Shimie said. "Thank you. Ja mata. I shall see you when I awaken." Miuska said, and headed off to the basement of the hut that she used as her home.
Shimie sighed. "I hope Miusky-san awakens before tomarrow. I know that Laura has to ask for something. I know she needs to ask for a tonic." Shimie considered the thought of making the tonic herself, then decided against it. "I'm not as experienced in the medical field as Miusky-san. I will just wait till the both of them are up." Shimie said then went over to Laura to watch over her.
***
Nikkinon watched Noruko take Laura to the village and the events play out. 'She's the cause of some of this trouble.' Nikkinon said. Said a dark form that was hidden in the shadows. It looked to be a woman, and the only thing that was really all that visible were her blood read eyes. She said before disapearing in a cloud of pitch black smoke. Nikkinon shuddered. 'She always gives me the creaps.' Nikkinon said. "Naioko, Biskoua, Hashike, come forth." Three serpent like beings came out. They were Naga queens. They had the torsos, arms, and heads of women, and a long tail that were like a snake. "Take the entire army of Nagas to the village. Destroy it, and capture the girl." Said Nikkinon. "Make sure she is alive." The Naga queens hissed, then went off to do as commanded.
***
Laura moaned as reality snuck back into her mind. At first, everything that was even a memory seemed to be shrouded in a cloud of smoke. She couldn't even remember her own name.
Then everything flooded back to her.
Laura sat up suddenly, then growled in pain and fell back onto the bed. "Take it easy." a voice said. Laura forced herself to move her head toward the voice. She saw Shimie sitting next to her. "Who are you? Where am I? What happened?" Laura said, questions just coming out, not giving Shimie a time to answer.
"Whoh! Slow down there, girl! First tell me your name, then I will answere your questions." Shimmie said.
"My name's Laura. I at least wish to know were I am." Laura breathed.
"Shimie. You were attacked by Noruko, the village's main guard. You are..." Shimie was cut off when Laura put two and Two together.
"I'm in the village?! Were's you medicine woman! I need here to make an antidote for me!" Laura said as she slowly got out of the bed.
"Whoh, Lie back down! You are not going any where in that condition!" Shimie scolded.
"If I don't get the antidote and give it to Link, he will die!" Laura exclaimed. Shimie was about to say something when Miuska came back up from the basement.
"I overheard what you said, young girl. I shall make the antidote for you as long as you stay in that bed while I make it!" Miuska cackled. "I will." Laura said, laying back into the bed. Miuska walked to the table and begane to mix tonics and potions together. "I know what the young lad needs. I saw what happened that night." Miuska said. "Just sit tight. This will take a couple of hours."
Laura sighed and waited as the old hag began to make the potion.
A/N: WHOH HOOO!! Long chapter finally! Who is this mytirious dark woman? And what will happen to the villiage when the Naga Queens reach it? Find out in the next chapter, The Ambush.
Link: *still out cold.*
