¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
¤ We see the usual opening: Gerudo guards patrolling the maze of clay structure that is their hideout, with a stunning sunset stretching its fingers across the valley. There is a silhouette atop the highest of these buildings. We hear a female voice speaking, presumably the owner of the silhouette. ¤
Female Voice: We have been here for years. We survive in the desert where no one else can. But all things must change, like the setting of the sun and the rising of the moon. For the first time in Gerudo history, outsiders will pass the haunted wastelands and into the Desert Colossus to participate in a contest of wit, endurance, and skills. But this is no adventure. It is a competition. A game. And only the last to leave can truly call themselves:
Survivor.
¤ Eerie music starts, kind of like a remix of the Gerudo Valley song and the Gerudo's Hideout song with some ocarina playing mixed in. We see a shot of the Desert Colossus, with two different camps: one on each side, but equidistant from the Desert Oasis; now dancing in clear, crystalline water. The song ends, and we see Nabooru standing on the steps of the Spirit Temple. ¤
Nabooru: Hello, and welcome back to Colossus: The show where we put totally different people in a barren wasteland with little food, barely any water, and practically torture them with stupid challenges, all in the name of entertainment!
Reader: -_-` (Silence.)
Nabooru: Now, it's been awhile since we last saw our two little "families", so let's go see what they're doing. But first, let's hear a little bit from our sponsors!
¤ The screen fades out, then goes totally black. Suddenly we are greeted head-on with a barrage of flashing lights, the glows of TV screens, bleeps, beeps, printers printing, and of course, the sound of someone dropping a very expensive piece of equipment and then shouting all over the store about it. A forklift drives by piled up with a computer, monitor, and all sorts of various components, followed by a very happy salesman and a very worried customer. Apparently the poor Hylian doesn't know how to say "no". ¤
Customer: Are you sure I can afford all this? All I wanted was a handheld organizer!
Salesman: Of course you can! At HyliaTronics, Inc., you can afford anything: THAT'S how low our prices are! Now let's go over here, and we'll get you suited up with our Customer Rewards Credit Card!
Customer: I don't want a credit card!
Salesman: Of course you do! Everybody wants a credit card, or two, or ten, or a hundred! Just come over here and fill out this form.
¤ The salesman leads the customer over to a counter and hands her a long piece of paper that reaches down to the floor.
Customer: It says here that I need a HyliaTronics MegaCard to get a HyliaTronics MegaCard!
Salesman: That's right! Of course, you can use your building permit, too.
Customer: I don't have a building permit. I'm an actor, not a contractor!
¤ Another salesperson comes up, this time a woman who appears to be the manager of the store. ¤
Woman: Hello, there! Do you need electronics, office supplies, or building permits? Then you need to come to HyliaTronics, Inc.! We have anything you'll ever need: including a great credit card that you can only use in our store! Come on over, and one of our expert sales associates will tell you everything they know about what you need and want!
¤ Cut to a shot of a very baffled customer looking at the digital cameras. Seeing a saleswoman walk by, the customer stops her and interrogates her on a certain camera. ¤
Customer: Excuse me, can you help me with this?
Saleswoman: I'll see what I can do! ^_~
Customer: What does this particular feature do? And what would I use it for?
Saleswoman: I don't even know what that is.
¤ Return to the shot of the store manager. She is handing a huge bag of office supplies to a young man who isn't even sure he wants all of it. ¤
Manager: Remember: HyliaTronics, Inc. has you covered for every possible situation: We'll even watch the kids for you!
¤ We see a shot of a bright room with bright yellow wallpaper and red carpeting. The so-called babysitter is engrossed in a magazine: Young Impressionable Hylians Magazine. ¤
BabySitter: Must…..buy….. Must max out all credit cards….
¤ A large group of Toddlers and Kindergartners are seated in front of a huge TV, all watching a purple Stalfos by the name of "Stalfie" dance and prance while holing a credit card and a bouquet of daisies instead of a sword and shield. Everybody else is deeply immersed in various issues of Young Impressionable Hylians Magazine. ¤
Stalfie: Hello, kids!
All young Children: HI, STALFIE!!!!!!
Stalfie: Are you ready to have some FUN!?
AYC: YEAAAAAAHHH!!!!
Stalfie: Okay, then!
¤ Horrible cheesy music comes on. It sounds like a bad mixture of Barney, theme songs from various citcoms, and a horribly out-of-tune music box. ¤
Stalfie: (Singing)
All you need is stuff, stuff, stuff!
If you buy then it's enough!
You can be happy simply by
Buying things! Oh my, oh my!
So come on now, and shop with me!
It's as fun as fun can be!
Stalfie and AYC: (Singing)
So COOOOOOOOMMMMMMMEEEE,
AND SHOP WITH MEEEEEE!!!!
IT'S AS FUN AS FUN CAN BE!!!
YOU CAN'T BE HAPPY IF YOU DON'T,
YOU WON'T BE COOL I-IF YOU DON'T!!!
SO COME ON NOW AND SHOP WITH ME,
IT'S AS FUN AS FUN CAN BE!!!!!
¤ The commercial ends, and we return to the show. ¤
Nabooru: Welcome back! Now, I hope you enjoy this episode!
¤ Tribe Tresaid. The group has just arrived at camp. ¤
Zelda: Hey, look! We made it!
Malon: Huh? Why, so we did!
Darunia: Did we win? Did we win? Didwedidwedidwedidwe!?
¤ Darunia jumps up and down excitedly, disturbing Malon from concentrating on the pain in her head from being tackled so hard. ¤
Malon: Ooohhh….
Rauru: Do you see Nabooru anywhere? Then no, we didn't win. It's not my fault you couldn't operate a sail!
Darunia: Hey, that's harder than it looks! And besides, I didn't see you doing any of the steering: Why were you the one who got to jump the Desert?
Rauru: Excuse me, but I thought you Gorons were supposed to be strong. If you weren't as big as the sail itself, you could have steered it on your own!
Darunia: WHAT!?
Malon: My head…..
Zelda: Hey, hey, HEY! Come on now! We decided on these jobs to make it easier: each of us was best suited to a different task!
Rauru: You mean YOU chose. All you had to do was boss everybody around!
Zelda: I was the NAVIGATOR!!! That's a very hard job!
Malon: Owww…..
Darunia: Yeah, she's got a point there. You studied maps and all that for years, didn't you, Sister?
Zelda: That's right! ^_^
Rauru: You mean "Yeah, right." Who studies MAPS for years and years?
Malon: Why is everybody fighting? It's not anybody's fault that we crashed, we just need to learn to work like a team!
Rauru: I'm sure you know a lot about that, miss mishap!
Malon: That was an ACCIDENT!
Darunia: Come on, she's right. We have to stop fighting!
Zelda: Well, I'm not getting involved. It wasn't my fault everything got all messed up!
¤ With that, everybody starts screaming and yelling at each other. The screen faces out as we see the beginnings of a fistfight. ¤
¤ Tribe Solain. Nabooru has just left and Link has stopped banging his head on the crate. The group is trying to decide where and how to set up camp. ¤
Ruto: What about here? Or maybe over here? What about this place over here? Ooh! Ooh! Ooh! Look over here! A snail!
Link, Saria, and Impa: -_-'
Ruto: Preeetttyyyy…….
Link, Saria, and Impa: -_-''
Ruto: I think I'll call you Frank! Hello, Frank!
¤ Link, Saria, and Impa all crash down, anime-style. ¤
¤ Later on in the day. Impa is helping Link set up his luxury item: a large, two-room tent. ¤
¤ A/N: They DO make those, believe me! My friend had one in her yard once when her relatives came over! ¤
Impa: This is sure a bug tent, Link. Couldn't you have gotten a smaller one?
Link: I could have, but I wanted the two rooms. That way, if anyone ever needs some privacy, they can go in the other room without disturbing anybody.
Impa: That's a great idea!
Link: Thanks. ^_^
¤ Meanwhile, Saria is applying her luxury, sunscreen- SPF 9,000; of course. She is talking to Ruto, whom is absolutely taken by "Frank". You see, Ruto had a snail for a pet when she was a child, and she thinks that Frank is the reincarnation or Buttercup the snail. ¤
Saria: I really don't think you should keep that snail, Ruto. We'll have to take care of it, and we barely have enough supplies for ourselves as it is. And if it got away, you'd be heartbroken!
Ruto: I'm willing to take that chance for my beloved Frank! I just hope that Daddy doesn't think we're having escargot for dinner, like what happened to Buttercup!
Saria: Oh, my goodness!
Ruto: La de da….. I love you, Frank!
Saria: Of course, you do. Now, could you please help me put this on my back?
Ruto: Sure! Frank, do you want to help? ¤ She speaks in a high-pitched voice. ¤ Of course I do!
¤ Ruto slicks the bottom of Frank's foot with sunscreen and lets it loose to crawl all over the poor Kokiri's back. Unbeknownst to Ruto, however, is the fact that Saria has been afraid of snails ever since Mido put one in her hair as a valentine. ¤
Saria: AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHGGGGGGHHHH!!!! SOMEBODY HELP MEEEEEEEE!!!!!AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!
¤ Saria runs off shrieking and screaming, while Ruto pauses to wonder what happens, then realizes who is riding on Saria's back. ¤
Ruto: Hold on, Frankie dear! YOUR BELOVED ZORA PRINCESS IS COMING FOR YOU!!!
¤ Meanwhile, Link and Impa are celebrating a job well done on putting the tent together when Saria runs by with Frank still sticking to her back. ¤
Saria: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA……..
Link and Impa: O_O?
¤ And then, when it possibly couldn't get weirder, it does. Ruto runs by screaming as if Stalfie were around. ¤
Ruto: HOLD ON, FRANKIE! I, RUTO, SHALL RESCUE YOU FROM MY FRIEND'S BACK! I'M COMING FOR YOOOOOOOUUUUUUUU!!!!!!
Link and Impa: O_O?????????????????????
¤ Tribe Tresaid: The fistfight has stopped, and we see a shot of Zelda sitting on a log in front of some desert-type and tropical plants. A sprinkler is going in the background. ¤
Zelda: It's only day one and we're already breaking up. This CAN'T be good. I mean, if we aren't united, then how can we possibly win any challenges? In my opinion: Tresaid is finished if we don't pull together.
Mysterious Voice: What do you think about your teammates?
Zelda: They're all great, and they all have their weird points, too. Take Darunia.
¤ We see a shot of Darunia dancing like a maniac. The camera pulls out and we see that Malon is absentmindedly humming Saria's Song to herself as she unpacks the crate. ¤
Zelda: He is very rambunctious, but don't get me wrong: that isn't necessarily a bad thing. He's so charismatic that we can't help but stop fighting and admire him!
MV: You got all this from a few hours?
Zelda: Such is Darunia.
MV: Ah. But what about the others?
Zelda: Malon and I have been best friends since childhood. We promised that we wouldn't let this come between us no matter what; I just hope that both of us can keep that promise.
MV: So you doubt even your best friend?
Zelda: Oh, not at all! I just know what competition can do to friends and families. I've seen it before; I just hope that Malon and I don't have to live it.
MV: And what about Rauru?
Zelda: ¤ Sigh…¤ Rauru. He's… well…. Rauru. He was very ingenuitive with the Moon Jump technique, but he's too…well…. cranky. He seems upset at every little thing, and it can get annoying.
¤ We see a shot of Rauru opening a bag of CHEEZ-E PUFFS that he got out of the crate. ¤
Malon: HEY! Those need to last a long time! C'mon, SHARE!
Rauru: No. You were too slow in getting them.
¤ Rauru sticks his tongue out at Malon, prompting her to grab the bag and stomp on his foot REALLY hard. ¤
Malon: NEVER tick off a Lon Lon Rancher. We are all blackbelts in Tae Kwon Do, so we're ready for ANYTHING. From horse thieves to CHEEZ-E PUFFS hogs!
¤ Malon stomps off, leaving Rauru to lament over a bruised foot. ¤
Rauru: Oooohhhh….
¤ Return to the shot of Zelda by the plants. ¤
Zelda: I think Malon will keep him in line, though….Hehehe….
¤ Tribe Solain: The first challenge has arrived, thanks to Kaepora Gaebora. ¤
Ruto: Look up in the air, guys! What is that?
Saria: It looks like….
Link: OH NO!!! IT'S THAT STUPID OWL!!! SAVE US!!! SSAAAAAAAAAVVVVVVVEEEEE UUUUUUSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!
¤ Kaepora comes in for a landing right on top of Link's tent and drops a letter into Impa's hands. ¤
Kaepora Gaebora: Hoot! Hoot! Hoot! Fine day, isn't it? Head southwest and you'll reach the Spirit Temple! You may find a couple surprises, too! Hoot! Hoot! Hoot!
Impa: We don't WANT to go to the Spirit Temple.
KG: Hoot! Hoot! Don't be so sure! Hoot! Hoot! Hoot!
Link: WHAT are you talking about!?
KG: Read the letter! Oh, and by the way…challenge……….careful! ………dangerous……..blah blah blah………goodness……..fly away………oh my!…………Hoot! Hoot! Hoot!………jgdkhgak…….dgfadgtdgry………… sgftsryg ………….artgazrgtza……s.fsdt…….hdyz……fdhytux……..stggrtz….. blah blah blah………….
Link, Saria, Ruto, and Impa: ZZZZzzzzZZZZzzzzZZZZzzzzZZZZzzzzZZZZzzzz…..
¤ Just as KG is wrapping up, the whole group starts awake. ¤
KG: Do you want to hear what I said again?
All Solain: NO!!!!
KG: You're so smart! I'm off to Tribe Tresaid! Hoot! Hoot! Hoot!
¤ KG takes off, causing the whole tent to collapse. ¤
Link and Impa: AAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!
¤ Tribe Tresaid: Zelda is reading the challenge to everybody. ¤
Zelda: Beware, ye tribes
Of twists and turns
And Dead-end paths!
For the time has
Come, you must race,
Or your tribe
Will be missing
A face!
Malon: It's a race! We've got to run through a maze!
Rauru: Well, duh…..
Darunia: This should be fun!
Rauru: It would be more if I didn't have a BROKEN FOOT!!!!!
Malon: Ahhh…hehehe…. Yeah, sorry about that.
Rauru: Whatever. I wanted CHEEZ-E PUFFS!!!
Zelda: After the challenge you can have as many as you like.
Rauru: YAY!
¤ The group grabs walking sticks they found on the ground and take off towards the Spirit Temple. At the same time, Solain has left too. The two groups converge about ten yards from the steps of the temple and continue the rest of the way in silence. Once they ascend the steps, they spread out into a nice little arc: Malon, Zelda, Darunia, Rauru, Link, Ruto, Saria, Impa. Nabooru emerges from inside the Spirit Temple. She has a sun visor on and sunscreen is on her nose. ¤
Nabooru: Hello, and welcome to your first immunity challenge! Since you all figured out the riddle, I don't need to tell you that you will be racing through a maze. The first one out wins immunity from the first council. Does everybody understand?
¤ Everybody nods ¤
Nabooru: Good. Now please get behind me.
¤ The group splits and goes behind Nabooru: Tresaid one way, and Solain the other. ¤
Nabooru: Here we go!
¤ Nabooru raises her hands in the air and looks upward. The two tribes follow her gaze. The hands of the statue in the front of the Temple begin to glow orange. Each sends down a beam of energy into a ball of bright orange magical energy floating there in Nabooru's hands. Once all of the magic is in the energy ball, the hands of the statue stop glowing. Nabooru brings her arms down in front of her and opens them wide. The energy shoots out in a huge ray and forms two mazes with crystalline glowing orange walls. Nabooru claps her hands once: Adobe walls form inside the orange crystal; again: The crystal breaks into thousands of minuscule points of light and vanishes. ¤
Both Tribes: O_O
Nabooru: What? Sage powers!
BT: Ah.
Nabooru: Now, one member of each tribe has been given their magic back in order to cast Farore's Wind, which will take your tribe to the center of the maze. Then I will give the signal. After that, your tribe must ace through the maze and grab the immunity idol.
¤ Nabooru points to a mini Armos statue. ¤
Nabooru: The first tribe to get it wins immunity. Everybody got it?
¤ The group nods ¤
Nabooru: Okay, then! Let's begin! Tresaid, your caster is Zelda.
Rauru: Big surprise there.
Nabooru: Solain, your caster is Link.
Ruto: But I wanted to! CanIcanIcanIcanIcanIcanIcanICANI!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
Nabooru: No.
Ruto: Awww….
Nabooru: On your marks, charge up, and CAST!!!!
¤ Zelda casts Farore's wind with poise and grace, and the group disappears into a shower of green lights that gracefully floats in a wide arc over to the center of a maze with a green finish line. Link casts too, but not so gracefully. The group disappears into a bunch of little green lights that bob, weave, and spiral over to the center of a maze with a blue finish line. Nabooru lifts her hands and disappears in a shower of orange sparks. She reappears hovering over the space between each maze. ¤
Nabooru: Is everybody ready?
¤ Both groups holler and cheer, meaning that they are. ¤
Nabooru: Good. All right! ON YOUR MARK!
¤ The members of each tribe wish their teammates luck. ¤
Nabooru: GET SET!!!
¤ The teams prepare themselves, straighten up, and a few get into a starting position. ¤
Nabooru: RACE!!!
¤ Nabooru disappears and reappears in the hand of the statue that has a triforce on it. She watches the two tribes from a distance, smiling. The camera dives down and plunges into one of the mazes. It follows the twists, turns, and pathways until it arrives in the center of the maze and focuses on the Tribe Solain. They are deciding how to go about this. ¤
Saria: Can I lead? I'm great with puzzles!
Link: I don't know. You always follow the right-hand side of the wall until you get out.
Saria: Exactly! That always leads you out! Besides, it's too risky just to pick an arbitrary direction and run! If we went the wrong way, the delay would cost us immunity. What do you say?
Ruto: It's worth a shot.
Impa: I think it's a great idea! You have my vote, Saria!
Link: You're right. Are we gonna win this?
All: YEAH!
¤ Saria lines the tribe up in single file as she gives directions. ¤
Saria: Okay. Everybody follow me. Hold hands, like this. I'll call out directions. When I say "One!" step with your left foot. When I say "Two!" step with your right foot. I will tell you if a turn is coming up by saying "Left!" or "Right!" Does that make sense?
All: Yep!
Saria: Okay, let's go!
¤ She grabs Link's hand, who was the first in line. Now Saria is first. ¤
Saria: Forward…..MARCH!
¤ The whole group takes off. ¤
Saria: One, two, one ,two, LEFT! One, two, one, two, one, LEFT! Two, one, two, RIGHT!
¤ Tribe Solain: They are not having as much luck. It is all Malon can do to keep everybody from just running off. ¤
Malon: Wait! Everybody follow the right-hand wall!
Rauru: What kind of stupid method is that?
Malon: It's a proven fact that when in a maze, if one follows the right-hand wall, it will eventually lead to the exit!
Darunia: Aaaaaawwww… That takes too long!
Rauru: That's right! Come on, D! Let's go!
¤ Darunia and Rauru take off into the maze. ¤
Malon and Zelda: WAAAAIIIITTTT!!!!!
¤ Malon and Zelda take off after them. Then, a few minutes later, we see the group at a dead end. ¤
Malon: I TOLD YOU! Now we're lost!
Zelda: You two should've listened.
Rauru: How was I supposed to know that this was the wrong way?
Darunia: Yeah, it's not like we have a map or anything.
¤ The group argues for several minutes, and almost come to blows, when: ¤
Zelda: Argh, come on! Malon, you lead the way.
Malon: Thank you! All right, everybody! Follow me!
Voice of Nabooru: Time's up!
¤ The mazes disappear and Tribe Solain is instantly warped back to the steps of the Spirit Temple. At this point we see a replay of Tribe Solain reaching the finish. ¤
Saria: One, two, one, two, HEY! THERE IT IS!
Ruto: Hooray!
Link: We made it!
Impa: Way to go, Saria!
Saria: Now for it! Everybody run up and grab the Idol!
¤ The whole group sprints out of the maze and grabs the Mini-mos. It and Saria are lifted up onto the tribe's shoulders. ¤
All: (Lots of cheering and yelling)
Ruto: We won! We won!
Link: You rock, Saria!
Impa: We did it! We actually did it! I can't believe it!
Saria: ¤ Laughing and even crying a little. ¤
¤ Nabooru appears, also laughing. ¤
Nabooru: Congratulations, Solain! You are immune to the first council!
Solain: WAHOOO!!!!!!! YEAH!! WE DID IT!!!!
Nabooru: Time's up!
¤ Nabooru snaps her fingers and the mazes disappear. Tribe Tresaid appears on the steps of the temple, brought back by Nabooru's magic. ¤
Darunia: I can't believe it!
Malon: We lost! I told you people!
Zelda: You should have listened!
Rauru: This blows!
All Tresaid: ¤ Sigh….¤
Nabooru: Congratulations, Solain! Tresaid, I will see you the day after tomorrow at dusk. Come into the main room of the Temple. Okay, people! Go back to your camps!
¤ Saria raises her hand. ¤
Nabooru: Yes, Saria?
Saria: Can you PLEASE get this thing OFF me!?
¤ Saria turns around and points to her back, which still has Frank holding on for dear life.¤
Nabooru: Of course, dear! What happened?
¤ Nabooru rips Frank off Saria's back and puts "him" in Saria's hand. ¤
Saria: Long story. Thank you!
¤ Saria chucks the poor thing across the desert. It vanishes past the horizon. ¤
Ruto: NNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!
Impa: There, there, dear. Let it go.
Link: You were way too attached to that thing. And you don't go around letting it crawl all over people's backs!
Saria: Yeah! Don't you remember how snails freak me out? Goddesses, I hate those things!
Ruto: DON'T YOU WORRY, MY FRANKIE!!!!!!! RUTO'S COMING TO GET YOOOOUUUUU!!!!!
¤ Ruto takes off, only to be grabbed just in time by Impa. ¤
Impa: Oh, no you don't!
Link: We need to get back. Let's go.
¤ Tribe Solain takes off, all happy- except Ruto, who is determined to rescue her "Frankie". She is screaming and yelling for Impa to let go of her. Link comes to Impa's aide and each one of them grabs one of Ruto's arms and almost have to drag her away. Saria is walking in front, carrying the armos. ¤
Zelda: What was that all about!?
Darunia: Who knows? Let's go back to camp.
Malon: Yeah, let's go.
¤ Rauru doesn't say anything. He is too busy fantasizing about CHEEZ-E PUFFS. Darunia taps him on the shoulder, signaling that it is time to go. Tribe Tresaid leaves to go back to camp. Nabooru is all alone on the steps of the Spirit Temple. It is as if the two tribes were never there: it is sunset, and not even their footprints remain. ¤
Nabooru: Well, a lot happened today. Friends were made, and were they lost as well? We will find out next time on……
¤ Nabooru spreads her arms out wide, and the camera pulls out remarkably fast. Now we see the entire Spirit Temple. We can hear Nabooru calling across the desert. ¤
Nabooru: Colossus: The Hylian Survival Adventure!
¤ Credits roll against a shot of the tribes going back to camp as the theme song plays. After a few minutes of this, the screen goes black and the show ends. ¤
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
GAAAWWL, these take forever! Well, at least I got it up, right? Since Spring Break is coming up, I'll be able to update more often. Yay! ^_^
Anyways, I have another episode before we find out who's leaving: Malon, Zelda, Darunia, or Rauru: Who is the (un)lucky contestant?
¤ Remember: I won't reveal who's off until I get enough votes to make my decision! E-mail me at the address found in my Bio, or leave your vote in a review. Either way, your opinion counts! We wouldn't want another election of 2000, would we!? ^_~
As always, I'm Sheik, asking for YOUR opinion and YOUR suggestion. I'll "see" you next time when I update, so until then…..
Vynafamm! Ihdem fa saad ykeyh.....
For all you non-Final Fantasy X players, that is in a language called Al Bhed. And for all you Al Bhed Illiterates, this is what it means:
~ Farewell! Until we meet again…..
Disclaimer: Do books have copyright pages in front of each chapter? NO! If you actually WANT to see a disclaimer, go to chapter one. I will not say this again. EVER. Except in my bio, so I don't have to repeat it. There you go.
And, here's the one thing that anyone will think of when someone talks about me: REVIEW!!!!
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
¤ We see the usual opening: Gerudo guards patrolling the maze of clay structure that is their hideout, with a stunning sunset stretching its fingers across the valley. There is a silhouette atop the highest of these buildings. We hear a female voice speaking, presumably the owner of the silhouette. ¤
Female Voice: We have been here for years. We survive in the desert where no one else can. But all things must change, like the setting of the sun and the rising of the moon. For the first time in Gerudo history, outsiders will pass the haunted wastelands and into the Desert Colossus to participate in a contest of wit, endurance, and skills. But this is no adventure. It is a competition. A game. And only the last to leave can truly call themselves:
Survivor.
¤ Eerie music starts, kind of like a remix of the Gerudo Valley song and the Gerudo's Hideout song with some ocarina playing mixed in. We see a shot of the Desert Colossus, with two different camps: one on each side, but equidistant from the Desert Oasis; now dancing in clear, crystalline water. The song ends, and we see Nabooru standing on the steps of the Spirit Temple. ¤
Nabooru: Hello, and welcome back to Colossus: The show where we put totally different people in a barren wasteland with little food, barely any water, and practically torture them with stupid challenges, all in the name of entertainment!
Reader: -_-` (Silence.)
Nabooru: Now, it's been awhile since we last saw our two little "families", so let's go see what they're doing. But first, let's hear a little bit from our sponsors!
¤ The screen fades out, then goes totally black. Suddenly we are greeted head-on with a barrage of flashing lights, the glows of TV screens, bleeps, beeps, printers printing, and of course, the sound of someone dropping a very expensive piece of equipment and then shouting all over the store about it. A forklift drives by piled up with a computer, monitor, and all sorts of various components, followed by a very happy salesman and a very worried customer. Apparently the poor Hylian doesn't know how to say "no". ¤
Customer: Are you sure I can afford all this? All I wanted was a handheld organizer!
Salesman: Of course you can! At HyliaTronics, Inc., you can afford anything: THAT'S how low our prices are! Now let's go over here, and we'll get you suited up with our Customer Rewards Credit Card!
Customer: I don't want a credit card!
Salesman: Of course you do! Everybody wants a credit card, or two, or ten, or a hundred! Just come over here and fill out this form.
¤ The salesman leads the customer over to a counter and hands her a long piece of paper that reaches down to the floor.
Customer: It says here that I need a HyliaTronics MegaCard to get a HyliaTronics MegaCard!
Salesman: That's right! Of course, you can use your building permit, too.
Customer: I don't have a building permit. I'm an actor, not a contractor!
¤ Another salesperson comes up, this time a woman who appears to be the manager of the store. ¤
Woman: Hello, there! Do you need electronics, office supplies, or building permits? Then you need to come to HyliaTronics, Inc.! We have anything you'll ever need: including a great credit card that you can only use in our store! Come on over, and one of our expert sales associates will tell you everything they know about what you need and want!
¤ Cut to a shot of a very baffled customer looking at the digital cameras. Seeing a saleswoman walk by, the customer stops her and interrogates her on a certain camera. ¤
Customer: Excuse me, can you help me with this?
Saleswoman: I'll see what I can do! ^_~
Customer: What does this particular feature do? And what would I use it for?
Saleswoman: I don't even know what that is.
¤ Return to the shot of the store manager. She is handing a huge bag of office supplies to a young man who isn't even sure he wants all of it. ¤
Manager: Remember: HyliaTronics, Inc. has you covered for every possible situation: We'll even watch the kids for you!
¤ We see a shot of a bright room with bright yellow wallpaper and red carpeting. The so-called babysitter is engrossed in a magazine: Young Impressionable Hylians Magazine. ¤
BabySitter: Must…..buy….. Must max out all credit cards….
¤ A large group of Toddlers and Kindergartners are seated in front of a huge TV, all watching a purple Stalfos by the name of "Stalfie" dance and prance while holing a credit card and a bouquet of daisies instead of a sword and shield. Everybody else is deeply immersed in various issues of Young Impressionable Hylians Magazine. ¤
Stalfie: Hello, kids!
All young Children: HI, STALFIE!!!!!!
Stalfie: Are you ready to have some FUN!?
AYC: YEAAAAAAHHH!!!!
Stalfie: Okay, then!
¤ Horrible cheesy music comes on. It sounds like a bad mixture of Barney, theme songs from various citcoms, and a horribly out-of-tune music box. ¤
Stalfie: (Singing)
All you need is stuff, stuff, stuff!
If you buy then it's enough!
You can be happy simply by
Buying things! Oh my, oh my!
So come on now, and shop with me!
It's as fun as fun can be!
Stalfie and AYC: (Singing)
So COOOOOOOOMMMMMMMEEEE,
AND SHOP WITH MEEEEEE!!!!
IT'S AS FUN AS FUN CAN BE!!!
YOU CAN'T BE HAPPY IF YOU DON'T,
YOU WON'T BE COOL I-IF YOU DON'T!!!
SO COME ON NOW AND SHOP WITH ME,
IT'S AS FUN AS FUN CAN BE!!!!!
¤ The commercial ends, and we return to the show. ¤
Nabooru: Welcome back! Now, I hope you enjoy this episode!
¤ Tribe Tresaid. The group has just arrived at camp. ¤
Zelda: Hey, look! We made it!
Malon: Huh? Why, so we did!
Darunia: Did we win? Did we win? Didwedidwedidwedidwe!?
¤ Darunia jumps up and down excitedly, disturbing Malon from concentrating on the pain in her head from being tackled so hard. ¤
Malon: Ooohhh….
Rauru: Do you see Nabooru anywhere? Then no, we didn't win. It's not my fault you couldn't operate a sail!
Darunia: Hey, that's harder than it looks! And besides, I didn't see you doing any of the steering: Why were you the one who got to jump the Desert?
Rauru: Excuse me, but I thought you Gorons were supposed to be strong. If you weren't as big as the sail itself, you could have steered it on your own!
Darunia: WHAT!?
Malon: My head…..
Zelda: Hey, hey, HEY! Come on now! We decided on these jobs to make it easier: each of us was best suited to a different task!
Rauru: You mean YOU chose. All you had to do was boss everybody around!
Zelda: I was the NAVIGATOR!!! That's a very hard job!
Malon: Owww…..
Darunia: Yeah, she's got a point there. You studied maps and all that for years, didn't you, Sister?
Zelda: That's right! ^_^
Rauru: You mean "Yeah, right." Who studies MAPS for years and years?
Malon: Why is everybody fighting? It's not anybody's fault that we crashed, we just need to learn to work like a team!
Rauru: I'm sure you know a lot about that, miss mishap!
Malon: That was an ACCIDENT!
Darunia: Come on, she's right. We have to stop fighting!
Zelda: Well, I'm not getting involved. It wasn't my fault everything got all messed up!
¤ With that, everybody starts screaming and yelling at each other. The screen faces out as we see the beginnings of a fistfight. ¤
¤ Tribe Solain. Nabooru has just left and Link has stopped banging his head on the crate. The group is trying to decide where and how to set up camp. ¤
Ruto: What about here? Or maybe over here? What about this place over here? Ooh! Ooh! Ooh! Look over here! A snail!
Link, Saria, and Impa: -_-'
Ruto: Preeetttyyyy…….
Link, Saria, and Impa: -_-''
Ruto: I think I'll call you Frank! Hello, Frank!
¤ Link, Saria, and Impa all crash down, anime-style. ¤
¤ Later on in the day. Impa is helping Link set up his luxury item: a large, two-room tent. ¤
¤ A/N: They DO make those, believe me! My friend had one in her yard once when her relatives came over! ¤
Impa: This is sure a bug tent, Link. Couldn't you have gotten a smaller one?
Link: I could have, but I wanted the two rooms. That way, if anyone ever needs some privacy, they can go in the other room without disturbing anybody.
Impa: That's a great idea!
Link: Thanks. ^_^
¤ Meanwhile, Saria is applying her luxury, sunscreen- SPF 9,000; of course. She is talking to Ruto, whom is absolutely taken by "Frank". You see, Ruto had a snail for a pet when she was a child, and she thinks that Frank is the reincarnation or Buttercup the snail. ¤
Saria: I really don't think you should keep that snail, Ruto. We'll have to take care of it, and we barely have enough supplies for ourselves as it is. And if it got away, you'd be heartbroken!
Ruto: I'm willing to take that chance for my beloved Frank! I just hope that Daddy doesn't think we're having escargot for dinner, like what happened to Buttercup!
Saria: Oh, my goodness!
Ruto: La de da….. I love you, Frank!
Saria: Of course, you do. Now, could you please help me put this on my back?
Ruto: Sure! Frank, do you want to help? ¤ She speaks in a high-pitched voice. ¤ Of course I do!
¤ Ruto slicks the bottom of Frank's foot with sunscreen and lets it loose to crawl all over the poor Kokiri's back. Unbeknownst to Ruto, however, is the fact that Saria has been afraid of snails ever since Mido put one in her hair as a valentine. ¤
Saria: AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHGGGGGGHHHH!!!! SOMEBODY HELP MEEEEEEEE!!!!!AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!
¤ Saria runs off shrieking and screaming, while Ruto pauses to wonder what happens, then realizes who is riding on Saria's back. ¤
Ruto: Hold on, Frankie dear! YOUR BELOVED ZORA PRINCESS IS COMING FOR YOU!!!
¤ Meanwhile, Link and Impa are celebrating a job well done on putting the tent together when Saria runs by with Frank still sticking to her back. ¤
Saria: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA……..
Link and Impa: O_O?
¤ And then, when it possibly couldn't get weirder, it does. Ruto runs by screaming as if Stalfie were around. ¤
Ruto: HOLD ON, FRANKIE! I, RUTO, SHALL RESCUE YOU FROM MY FRIEND'S BACK! I'M COMING FOR YOOOOOOOUUUUUUUU!!!!!!
Link and Impa: O_O?????????????????????
¤ Tribe Tresaid: The fistfight has stopped, and we see a shot of Zelda sitting on a log in front of some desert-type and tropical plants. A sprinkler is going in the background. ¤
Zelda: It's only day one and we're already breaking up. This CAN'T be good. I mean, if we aren't united, then how can we possibly win any challenges? In my opinion: Tresaid is finished if we don't pull together.
Mysterious Voice: What do you think about your teammates?
Zelda: They're all great, and they all have their weird points, too. Take Darunia.
¤ We see a shot of Darunia dancing like a maniac. The camera pulls out and we see that Malon is absentmindedly humming Saria's Song to herself as she unpacks the crate. ¤
Zelda: He is very rambunctious, but don't get me wrong: that isn't necessarily a bad thing. He's so charismatic that we can't help but stop fighting and admire him!
MV: You got all this from a few hours?
Zelda: Such is Darunia.
MV: Ah. But what about the others?
Zelda: Malon and I have been best friends since childhood. We promised that we wouldn't let this come between us no matter what; I just hope that both of us can keep that promise.
MV: So you doubt even your best friend?
Zelda: Oh, not at all! I just know what competition can do to friends and families. I've seen it before; I just hope that Malon and I don't have to live it.
MV: And what about Rauru?
Zelda: ¤ Sigh…¤ Rauru. He's… well…. Rauru. He was very ingenuitive with the Moon Jump technique, but he's too…well…. cranky. He seems upset at every little thing, and it can get annoying.
¤ We see a shot of Rauru opening a bag of CHEEZ-E PUFFS that he got out of the crate. ¤
Malon: HEY! Those need to last a long time! C'mon, SHARE!
Rauru: No. You were too slow in getting them.
¤ Rauru sticks his tongue out at Malon, prompting her to grab the bag and stomp on his foot REALLY hard. ¤
Malon: NEVER tick off a Lon Lon Rancher. We are all blackbelts in Tae Kwon Do, so we're ready for ANYTHING. From horse thieves to CHEEZ-E PUFFS hogs!
¤ Malon stomps off, leaving Rauru to lament over a bruised foot. ¤
Rauru: Oooohhhh….
¤ Return to the shot of Zelda by the plants. ¤
Zelda: I think Malon will keep him in line, though….Hehehe….
¤ Tribe Solain: The first challenge has arrived, thanks to Kaepora Gaebora. ¤
Ruto: Look up in the air, guys! What is that?
Saria: It looks like….
Link: OH NO!!! IT'S THAT STUPID OWL!!! SAVE US!!! SSAAAAAAAAAVVVVVVVEEEEE UUUUUUSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!
¤ Kaepora comes in for a landing right on top of Link's tent and drops a letter into Impa's hands. ¤
Kaepora Gaebora: Hoot! Hoot! Hoot! Fine day, isn't it? Head southwest and you'll reach the Spirit Temple! You may find a couple surprises, too! Hoot! Hoot! Hoot!
Impa: We don't WANT to go to the Spirit Temple.
KG: Hoot! Hoot! Don't be so sure! Hoot! Hoot! Hoot!
Link: WHAT are you talking about!?
KG: Read the letter! Oh, and by the way…challenge……….careful! ………dangerous……..blah blah blah………goodness……..fly away………oh my!…………Hoot! Hoot! Hoot!………jgdkhgak…….dgfadgtdgry………… sgftsryg ………….artgazrgtza……s.fsdt…….hdyz……fdhytux……..stggrtz….. blah blah blah………….
Link, Saria, Ruto, and Impa: ZZZZzzzzZZZZzzzzZZZZzzzzZZZZzzzzZZZZzzzz…..
¤ Just as KG is wrapping up, the whole group starts awake. ¤
KG: Do you want to hear what I said again?
All Solain: NO!!!!
KG: You're so smart! I'm off to Tribe Tresaid! Hoot! Hoot! Hoot!
¤ KG takes off, causing the whole tent to collapse. ¤
Link and Impa: AAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!
¤ Tribe Tresaid: Zelda is reading the challenge to everybody. ¤
Zelda: Beware, ye tribes
Of twists and turns
And Dead-end paths!
For the time has
Come, you must race,
Or your tribe
Will be missing
A face!
Malon: It's a race! We've got to run through a maze!
Rauru: Well, duh…..
Darunia: This should be fun!
Rauru: It would be more if I didn't have a BROKEN FOOT!!!!!
Malon: Ahhh…hehehe…. Yeah, sorry about that.
Rauru: Whatever. I wanted CHEEZ-E PUFFS!!!
Zelda: After the challenge you can have as many as you like.
Rauru: YAY!
¤ The group grabs walking sticks they found on the ground and take off towards the Spirit Temple. At the same time, Solain has left too. The two groups converge about ten yards from the steps of the temple and continue the rest of the way in silence. Once they ascend the steps, they spread out into a nice little arc: Malon, Zelda, Darunia, Rauru, Link, Ruto, Saria, Impa. Nabooru emerges from inside the Spirit Temple. She has a sun visor on and sunscreen is on her nose. ¤
Nabooru: Hello, and welcome to your first immunity challenge! Since you all figured out the riddle, I don't need to tell you that you will be racing through a maze. The first one out wins immunity from the first council. Does everybody understand?
¤ Everybody nods ¤
Nabooru: Good. Now please get behind me.
¤ The group splits and goes behind Nabooru: Tresaid one way, and Solain the other. ¤
Nabooru: Here we go!
¤ Nabooru raises her hands in the air and looks upward. The two tribes follow her gaze. The hands of the statue in the front of the Temple begin to glow orange. Each sends down a beam of energy into a ball of bright orange magical energy floating there in Nabooru's hands. Once all of the magic is in the energy ball, the hands of the statue stop glowing. Nabooru brings her arms down in front of her and opens them wide. The energy shoots out in a huge ray and forms two mazes with crystalline glowing orange walls. Nabooru claps her hands once: Adobe walls form inside the orange crystal; again: The crystal breaks into thousands of minuscule points of light and vanishes. ¤
Both Tribes: O_O
Nabooru: What? Sage powers!
BT: Ah.
Nabooru: Now, one member of each tribe has been given their magic back in order to cast Farore's Wind, which will take your tribe to the center of the maze. Then I will give the signal. After that, your tribe must ace through the maze and grab the immunity idol.
¤ Nabooru points to a mini Armos statue. ¤
Nabooru: The first tribe to get it wins immunity. Everybody got it?
¤ The group nods ¤
Nabooru: Okay, then! Let's begin! Tresaid, your caster is Zelda.
Rauru: Big surprise there.
Nabooru: Solain, your caster is Link.
Ruto: But I wanted to! CanIcanIcanIcanIcanIcanIcanICANI!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
Nabooru: No.
Ruto: Awww….
Nabooru: On your marks, charge up, and CAST!!!!
¤ Zelda casts Farore's wind with poise and grace, and the group disappears into a shower of green lights that gracefully floats in a wide arc over to the center of a maze with a green finish line. Link casts too, but not so gracefully. The group disappears into a bunch of little green lights that bob, weave, and spiral over to the center of a maze with a blue finish line. Nabooru lifts her hands and disappears in a shower of orange sparks. She reappears hovering over the space between each maze. ¤
Nabooru: Is everybody ready?
¤ Both groups holler and cheer, meaning that they are. ¤
Nabooru: Good. All right! ON YOUR MARK!
¤ The members of each tribe wish their teammates luck. ¤
Nabooru: GET SET!!!
¤ The teams prepare themselves, straighten up, and a few get into a starting position. ¤
Nabooru: RACE!!!
¤ Nabooru disappears and reappears in the hand of the statue that has a triforce on it. She watches the two tribes from a distance, smiling. The camera dives down and plunges into one of the mazes. It follows the twists, turns, and pathways until it arrives in the center of the maze and focuses on the Tribe Solain. They are deciding how to go about this. ¤
Saria: Can I lead? I'm great with puzzles!
Link: I don't know. You always follow the right-hand side of the wall until you get out.
Saria: Exactly! That always leads you out! Besides, it's too risky just to pick an arbitrary direction and run! If we went the wrong way, the delay would cost us immunity. What do you say?
Ruto: It's worth a shot.
Impa: I think it's a great idea! You have my vote, Saria!
Link: You're right. Are we gonna win this?
All: YEAH!
¤ Saria lines the tribe up in single file as she gives directions. ¤
Saria: Okay. Everybody follow me. Hold hands, like this. I'll call out directions. When I say "One!" step with your left foot. When I say "Two!" step with your right foot. I will tell you if a turn is coming up by saying "Left!" or "Right!" Does that make sense?
All: Yep!
Saria: Okay, let's go!
¤ She grabs Link's hand, who was the first in line. Now Saria is first. ¤
Saria: Forward…..MARCH!
¤ The whole group takes off. ¤
Saria: One, two, one ,two, LEFT! One, two, one, two, one, LEFT! Two, one, two, RIGHT!
¤ Tribe Solain: They are not having as much luck. It is all Malon can do to keep everybody from just running off. ¤
Malon: Wait! Everybody follow the right-hand wall!
Rauru: What kind of stupid method is that?
Malon: It's a proven fact that when in a maze, if one follows the right-hand wall, it will eventually lead to the exit!
Darunia: Aaaaaawwww… That takes too long!
Rauru: That's right! Come on, D! Let's go!
¤ Darunia and Rauru take off into the maze. ¤
Malon and Zelda: WAAAAIIIITTTT!!!!!
¤ Malon and Zelda take off after them. Then, a few minutes later, we see the group at a dead end. ¤
Malon: I TOLD YOU! Now we're lost!
Zelda: You two should've listened.
Rauru: How was I supposed to know that this was the wrong way?
Darunia: Yeah, it's not like we have a map or anything.
¤ The group argues for several minutes, and almost come to blows, when: ¤
Zelda: Argh, come on! Malon, you lead the way.
Malon: Thank you! All right, everybody! Follow me!
Voice of Nabooru: Time's up!
¤ The mazes disappear and Tribe Solain is instantly warped back to the steps of the Spirit Temple. At this point we see a replay of Tribe Solain reaching the finish. ¤
Saria: One, two, one, two, HEY! THERE IT IS!
Ruto: Hooray!
Link: We made it!
Impa: Way to go, Saria!
Saria: Now for it! Everybody run up and grab the Idol!
¤ The whole group sprints out of the maze and grabs the Mini-mos. It and Saria are lifted up onto the tribe's shoulders. ¤
All: (Lots of cheering and yelling)
Ruto: We won! We won!
Link: You rock, Saria!
Impa: We did it! We actually did it! I can't believe it!
Saria: ¤ Laughing and even crying a little. ¤
¤ Nabooru appears, also laughing. ¤
Nabooru: Congratulations, Solain! You are immune to the first council!
Solain: WAHOOO!!!!!!! YEAH!! WE DID IT!!!!
Nabooru: Time's up!
¤ Nabooru snaps her fingers and the mazes disappear. Tribe Tresaid appears on the steps of the temple, brought back by Nabooru's magic. ¤
Darunia: I can't believe it!
Malon: We lost! I told you people!
Zelda: You should have listened!
Rauru: This blows!
All Tresaid: ¤ Sigh….¤
Nabooru: Congratulations, Solain! Tresaid, I will see you the day after tomorrow at dusk. Come into the main room of the Temple. Okay, people! Go back to your camps!
¤ Saria raises her hand. ¤
Nabooru: Yes, Saria?
Saria: Can you PLEASE get this thing OFF me!?
¤ Saria turns around and points to her back, which still has Frank holding on for dear life.¤
Nabooru: Of course, dear! What happened?
¤ Nabooru rips Frank off Saria's back and puts "him" in Saria's hand. ¤
Saria: Long story. Thank you!
¤ Saria chucks the poor thing across the desert. It vanishes past the horizon. ¤
Ruto: NNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!
Impa: There, there, dear. Let it go.
Link: You were way too attached to that thing. And you don't go around letting it crawl all over people's backs!
Saria: Yeah! Don't you remember how snails freak me out? Goddesses, I hate those things!
Ruto: DON'T YOU WORRY, MY FRANKIE!!!!!!! RUTO'S COMING TO GET YOOOOUUUUU!!!!!
¤ Ruto takes off, only to be grabbed just in time by Impa. ¤
Impa: Oh, no you don't!
Link: We need to get back. Let's go.
¤ Tribe Solain takes off, all happy- except Ruto, who is determined to rescue her "Frankie". She is screaming and yelling for Impa to let go of her. Link comes to Impa's aide and each one of them grabs one of Ruto's arms and almost have to drag her away. Saria is walking in front, carrying the armos. ¤
Zelda: What was that all about!?
Darunia: Who knows? Let's go back to camp.
Malon: Yeah, let's go.
¤ Rauru doesn't say anything. He is too busy fantasizing about CHEEZ-E PUFFS. Darunia taps him on the shoulder, signaling that it is time to go. Tribe Tresaid leaves to go back to camp. Nabooru is all alone on the steps of the Spirit Temple. It is as if the two tribes were never there: it is sunset, and not even their footprints remain. ¤
Nabooru: Well, a lot happened today. Friends were made, and were they lost as well? We will find out next time on……
¤ Nabooru spreads her arms out wide, and the camera pulls out remarkably fast. Now we see the entire Spirit Temple. We can hear Nabooru calling across the desert. ¤
Nabooru: Colossus: The Hylian Survival Adventure!
¤ Credits roll against a shot of the tribes going back to camp as the theme song plays. After a few minutes of this, the screen goes black and the show ends. ¤
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
GAAAWWL, these take forever! Well, at least I got it up, right? Since Spring Break is coming up, I'll be able to update more often. Yay! ^_^
Anyways, I have another episode before we find out who's leaving: Malon, Zelda, Darunia, or Rauru: Who is the (un)lucky contestant?
¤ Remember: I won't reveal who's off until I get enough votes to make my decision! E-mail me at the address found in my Bio, or leave your vote in a review. Either way, your opinion counts! We wouldn't want another election of 2000, would we!? ^_~
As always, I'm Sheik, asking for YOUR opinion and YOUR suggestion. I'll "see" you next time when I update, so until then…..
Vynafamm! Ihdem fa saad ykeyh.....
For all you non-Final Fantasy X players, that is in a language called Al Bhed. And for all you Al Bhed Illiterates, this is what it means:
~ Farewell! Until we meet again…..
