Disclaimer: I still don't own it. Either the characters belong to Kat,
Nintendo, or me. Um. yeah.

So, again with another chapter my friends. Hopefully I will finish this way sooner. With some more encouragement from Kat I realized that most of my story chapters are going to be about six pages because it's easier for me to do. Got senior piccies done today and looked at my old pictures from pre- school. Awww. I was so anti-social. Isn't that adorable? *cough* Well, on with the chapter!

Chapter 7: Waterlogged and Insects
Jay sighed heavily as he continued walking. The air about him was turning cold and windy and rain was staring to come down in a heavy sprinkle. The cape he adorned was damp and drooping at his sides and his hair matted to his forehead.
"This is the life of a traveler. isn't it?" he asked himself in the oncoming darkness of night.
The wind seemed to answer him back. It seemed to be calling him toward the east where the waters met the land, where the mighty ocean dwelled.
"Strange," he said looking around, "I would have sworn that someone was calling me."
He turned east and looked before himself. He was in a vast forest already and wasn't all too far from where he resided. Supposing there was something important going on, Jay started his trek toward the east into the heart of Lynnia.

The wind was still blowing out on the ocean as Sond started to regain consciousness. She found herself tucked inside a warm, damp, and tight enclosure. Tight was right. She felt as though she was being squashed to a pulp by a two hundred pound weight. Well, she was half right.
The kangaroo that had been on the raft had stuck Sond into his pouch after she had passed out. The storm had kept coming though and the raft started to show signs of wear and tear.
The moist enclosure that Sond was in seemed safe for the time though thoughts of despair and danger ran through her head. She poked her head out the top of the sealed pouch to find the waves were huge and that the raft was being tossed about. A pair of eyes stared at her from an upside down face. The kangaroo had hid his head under his paws for shelter from the storm.
"Tharnks." He said strangely.
This was the first time Sond had gotten a good look at the creature though with the current predicament there wasn't much to look at other than a giant face, a pair of eyes, and a giant dark brown fur patch over the left eye.
Sond was going to say something when a huge wave loomed over the small party's head. The wave crashed down upon the raft and icy water flooded over the two. The faerie that had been placed in the hair of his partner had fallen out into the pouch and was safely snuggled inside.
Sond gagged as salt water filled her mouth and down into the pit of her stomach. The raft lurched again as another wave tried to take the raft the completely opposite direction of the others causing the raft to creak at the ropes.
The weather seemed to be getting worse by the moment when the waves calmed down a bit. When the waves calmed the wind died out causing the rain to die out slowly and the waves to stop almost all the way.
The waterlogged kangaroo placed his paws on the raft and stood up. He stretched out his long legs and pounded at his ears. Then looked to the sky and coked his head.
Sond looked up as well and saw the clouds in the sky part as a silver lined creature glided by on golden wings. It looked down upon the pair and swooped to it's left and landed gently on the raft with out a sound. Its eyes were small slits and it had large antlers on the top of its head. Some would say that it looked like a mix of a cat and a deer with the front legs of a deer and the rear of a feline. There was the sacred mark of the Tri Force on its rear and strange black marking filled other parts of its body.
It stared for a moment as Sond and the kangaroo stared at it in bewilderment.
"I am the mighty Cear," It said as it lowered its golden wings, "I am sworn to protect the destiny of the lands."
Sond stared blankly at it as the silver glow faded around the Cear.
"Aren't y- you a myth?" she blurted out.
The Cear looked at her and smiled a small toothy grin. "I am what you think though in life I exist. Most say I am though saving the destines I still do."
The Cear spread it's wings and lifted off into the air. As it flew forward, the raft gently followed it until it hit the sandy shore. "Farwell destine. Until another time." And the mythical beast flew high into the sky and out of sight.

Kas sat at the fire looking extremely discontent. He was still thinking about what had happened earlier. Even Timbre had deserted him. They can be selfish brats at times I suppose he thought to himself. And even if they do act like they know everything, they still need to be helped in times of danger.
As Kas thought he heard a loud bickering came from down the nearby path. Two young boys seemed to be arguing with each other about something. One had blue spiky hair that resembled sort of a hedgehog look and had dark black lines under his eyes in which the left was sported with a large scar. He wore white clothes a short blue cape and had a black glove on the right hand and a four fingered white glove on the left. The other, who was yelling quite loudly, had blonde hair and the same two dark lines under his eyes. He too had a scar but it was over the side of his nose and down the left of his cheek. He had a red feather over his ear, a green t-shirt, dark brown gloves, and blue jeans. A blue cat perched on his shoulders and a faerie bobbing at the side of his head.
"Why'd you have to go and do THAT?" Yelled the blonde pointing at his rear end. Behind him were two large yellow wolf like tails.
"They.. suit you well," said the blue haired one nodding, "I could have made you look like a cat."
"Well, no respectable wolf has three tails and runs around like a Keaton!" yelled the first.
The other smiled evily. "I didn't say you WERE respectable. I just went and poisoned your food anyway."
The blonde sighed and looked at the ground in front of him. "I don't see why we're doing this in the first place Silf."
"You know, I was thinking the same thing Archer." Silf took out a dagger from the side of his belt and balanced it tip first on his finger. "I could have just sliced your throat you know." He laughed as he threw the dagger into the air.
Archer sighed. It had been too long of a journey with a suicidal homicide maniac at his side. As he looked up he saw a figure clad in gray with a cape up ahead.
"Ohy!!" He cried to the figure.
Kas looked behind him and waved once. Archer ran over, tails twitching behind him as Silf pulled up the rear and sheathed his dagger.
"So." Kas said in a low tone, "what are you doing here."
Archer looked at him and replied, "Well, we were looking for you and the gang. We had to tell you guys that some people in Clock Town said that the Great Faerie said that se heard from some light sage that there is something bad stirring out in Lynnia and beginning in Holodrum.
Kas sighed and leaned back looking at the sky. "I knew something must have been up. I felt it when she left."
"Who?" Archer asked as he scooted away from Silf who was tinkering around with something behind his back.
"Sondilyn left towards Lynnia about three days ago."
Archer's eyes widened a bit. "You mean you let her go? With out MY protection?"
Silf coughed from behind Archer. "She's mine. even if I have to poison you again."
Archer scowled, "You'd poison HER you freak."
Silf grabbed his dagger once again, "So what if I do. she's mine anyways."
Kas stood up and grabbed each by the back of the shirt as the both tried to lunge for one another. As much as he didn't want to get into the middle of a fight, he didn't want to be disturbed either.
"If you don't mind," Kas said as he clunked both their heads together, "I am going to check up on the others. If you fight, I will have to severely punish you."
Archer and Silf glared at each other dizzily.
"Can you kill me?" Silf asked happily.
"I will neuter you if you don't stop." Kas said firmly as his eyebrows slanted into an angry face.
Silf yelped and hid behind a nearby rock as Archer sat down by the fire and stared at Kas. "I'll be fine. You go check on them." His tails wagged behind his like they had a mind of their own. "Stopit you two." He poked them and they twitched.
Kas nodded and headed toward the large hole in the ground.
***
Inside the hole the group was still scavenging through the grass and the chests. Timbre still stood near the shining light portal thinking about Kas. He supposed that he kept thinking because Kas had never really been wrong when saying that something was dangerous.
Katherine was content picking up rupees while Kafei thought it was amusing to touch heart shaped pendants and watch them disappear. Ty and Nick sat about throwing blades of grass at each other and Chiron poked at fish in a puddle.
"So, wasn't it a good idea not to listen for a change?" asked Link as he opened a small clump a dirt with his sword tip.
"Mus' sai'," Nick replied, "Migh' not've be'n to brigh' an' all, buh' we foun' all thi' nifty s'uff."
Timbre sat down and stared at Link. Why did I even follow him in the first place? Timbre thought to himself. Was it the was Link said it. or was it because I don't have respect for Kas anymore.
Just as Timbre thought of this there was a loud yell from the corner of the room and the sound of a sword.
"Just what do you think you're doing?"
"Getting treasure monkey boy!"
Ty and Link were at it again with their arguing. If they weren't fighting over something they were pre-occupied.
"Why push me over? There's nothing under my bum for you." Ty yelled at Link.
"You're sitting on a red rupee dumb butt." Link yelled back as he pointed his sword toward Ty's rear.
"Hey no faerie why don't you just take it over there. then maybe your blondness won't rub off on me." Ty retaliated.
Link grumbled a bit and then lunged at Ty. Ty grabbed out and wrapped his arm around Link's neck as Link grabbed Ty's shirt. They rolled around fighting in the hole, which got more violent each roll.
The boys tussled until they hit a wall near Timbre. The wall shuddered and the room fell silent. Nick, Chiron, Kafei, and Kat looked at the two. They seemed frozen in place, Link with his hand around Ty's tail and foot in his gut and Ty with his fist a few inches from Link's face and his foot on Link's stomach.
A soft buzzing from the same corner of the room broke the silence. A large brown circular looking object started to move violently and the buzzing got really loud. The children looked up and their mouths dropped in horror. Three large bees the size of a medium dog came out of the object and clacked their metal jaws. They spread their wings out and took flight. Unfortunately, it was towards the small group of children.

Well, there you have it. Another chapter! It's weird, the other chapter took so long and this one took an all nighter and a day. Wow. I surprised myself. Well, I hope you like the chapter and please at least review. Uh. thanks. I gotta go put this up now 'cause Kat insists! Yeah so thanks!
