Colossus
A FanFic by Sheik
MUAHAHAH! See chapter one if you can't possibly live without disclaimers.
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
¤ 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 to Colossus, the Hylian Survival MIS-Adventure! Today we will witness a surprising chain of events in today's immunity challenge! Stick around! We'll be right back!
¤ The screen fades out as Nabooru pops open a can of soda and walks off to her room in the Spirit Temple. When the screen fades back in, we see a busy scene in Hyrule Castle town. In what was once an empty shop on the second level of the town is now full of people. A sign out front has a huge picture of the Fairy Ocarina and a green fairy painted on it. We go to a shot of the inside of the building, where Saria is happily selling variations of the Fairy Ocarina, replicas of the Ocarina of Time, music books, and various "accessories" for so-called better ocarina playing. ¤
Saria: Oh, hello there! I'm Saria, here with an update from Saria's Ocarina Lessons! We've gotten so popular, we've moved---right to the center of Hylian life, Hyrule Castle town! Now, with our convenient shop, you can visit anytime between the hours of 9 AM and 12 PM to get anything you need to better your ocarina playing! Come on in! We'll be waiting for you!
¤ The screen fades out, and we return to the show. ¤
¤ Tribe Solain: Link, Saria, and Impa are discussing the current Frank situation. In the background, we can see the Solain camp being actively destroyed as Ruto searches for food to feed to her precious "Frankie-poo". ¤
Saria: ¤ Sigh ¤
Impa: What are we gonna do about that girl?
Link: This is DEFINITELY getting out of control.
Impa: You can say THAT again.
Link: This is DEFIN---
Saria: Shut up!
Impa: That must be the oldest joke in the book!
Link: What book?
Impa: THE book!
Link: Where? I don't see any books around here!
Saria: What Impa is trying to say is that joke is a total cliché!
Link: What's a cliché? Does that book you were talking about have the meaning of "cliché" in it, Impa?
¤ Saria and Impa crash down anime-style as Link continues to muse about "The Book". Ruto has finally discovered the reserve rations that Link and the others had buried under the sand and is now attempting to cook it. Too bad Zoras are major pyrophobics…. ¤
¤ Tribe Tresaid: Darunia's absence is beginning to get to the tribe members. Malon and Zelda seem to be rather upset, but Rauru couldn't be happier. ¤
Zelda: Man, this fire went out again!
Malon: Crap! I don't see how this keeps happening! We're doing it just like Dad and I do back home!
Rauru: Isn't it great not to have that huge creature around anymore? We'll finally have some peace and quiet and Cheez-E-Puffs and….
¤ Malon and Zelda glare at Rauru, whose face and hands are accusingly orange. ¤
Rauru: Sheesh! I'm free to have my own opinion, you know! Why, back in the Sacred Realm, when you're all alone, it seems that no one cares about you enough to visit, and then you come here, and nobody listens! It's enough to kill somebody!
¤ Rauru looks about ready to cry, and so do the girls. They immediately get up and catch Rauru in a huge Goron-style group hug. ¤
Zelda: Rauru….I…….
Malon: We had no idea you felt this way!
Malon and Zelda: WE'RE SORRY!!! WAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!
¤ Both girls begin crying on the spot as anime-style tears stream in huge arcs from their eyes. Meanwhile, Rauru is cracking up. ¤
Malon: What's so funny?
Zelda: What, did we tickle you or something?
Rauru: WHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH AHAHAHAHA!!!!!!
You guys are TOO EASY!!!!!
WHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH AHAHAHAHA!!!!!
¤ Rauru walks away, laughing his head off, while the two girls are left there standing dumbfounded. ¤
Malon: What are we gonna do with him?
Zelda: Oh, several ideas come to mind…..
Dramatic Fanfare: dun! Dun!! DUUUUUUUUN!!!!!
¤ A large package falls from the sky, hitting Malon square on the head. ¤
Malon: OW!! What the---?!
Zelda: Look! It's a message! It must be about our next challenge!
Malon: OOH! OPEN IT! OPEN IT!
Zelda: I would, but it's taped shut!
Malon: Here.
¤ Malon hands Zelda and arrow. ¤
Zelda: Ooh! Thanks! Good thing I brought these, huh?
Malon: Yeah! What's inside?
Zelda: Hold on! Gimme a sec!
¤ Zelda uses the head of the arrow to cut the tape on the box, revealing some cans of soda, paper plates, and various kinds of junk food. ¤
Malon and Zelda: OMIGOSH! I CAN'T BELIEVE IT!
Zelda: Wait…………shouldn't we tell Rauru?
Malon: After how he ditched us?
Both: NO WAY!!!!
¤ They begin to dig in, when--- ¤
Rauru: HEY! WHAT IS THAT?!
Malon: EEP!
Zelda: It's a something to do with our challenge! Look, we saved some for you!
¤ Zelda tosses Rauru a can of diet soda and a bag of Cheez-E-Puffs. Rauru, seemingly satisfied, walks off to enjoy pigging out in peace. ¤
Zelda: Phew! I thought he'd never leave!
Malon: You can say that again!
Zelda: Phew! You can---
¤ The Spirit Temple: the two tribes have gathered for the second immunity challenge. Nabooru is standing in the doorway of the Temple, while the contestants are gathered on the steps. ¤
Nabooru: Greetings, contestants, and welcome to your second immunity challenge. I trust you are all feeling up to it?
¤ Tresaid seems okay, and Ruto is ecstatic. The rest of Solain, however, couldn't be more tired AND hungry. After all, Ruto got all the food and all the bedding: she couldn't sleep at all if her precious Frank didn't have a king-sized bed in the tent. ¤
Nabooru: Well, I'm sure you'll wake up once you find out what our immunity challenge is!
Malon, Zelda, Impa, Saria, and Link: IS IT AN EATING CONTEST?!?!?!?
Nabooru: No. It's--- well, I guess I had better show you.
¤ Nabooru snaps her fingers and the whole group is instantly warped to the canyon area in Gerudo Valley, and it is MUCH bigger than it looks. Set up across the canyon, pretty far down the river and away from the bridge is a wobbly tightrope with none other than Rauru's hovercraft floating around beneath it, piloted by none other than Bombchu Guy. ¤
Rauru: HEY! My Game Boy is on that!!! Give it back!
BG: (Shouting) No! I need it to pilot this thing!
Rauru: WHAT DID YOU SAY?
BG: (Shouting louder) I NEED IT TO PILOT THIS THING!!!
Rauru: WHAT?! I CAN'T HEAR YOU!!!
Nabooru: You'll understand later, Rauru. I promise your Game Boy will be safe.
Rauru: ¤ mumblemumble ¤ Ok…….
Nabooru: ALL RIGHT!!!! YOU GUYS CAN COME OUT NOW!!!
¤ From inside the Gerudo's fortress come many scantily clad Gerudo women; from the Hyrule Field entrance to the valley come several Kokiri children armed with slingshots, a few bomb-wielding Gorons, a whole bunch of Deku Scrubs, and the Cucco lady from Kakariko Village followed by the carpenter guys carrying suspiciously violently-shaking crates. Next, from the highest walls of the canyon, far above the contestants, come about a dozen or so Zoras, all wielding boomerangs, at various places around the valley so that they have it surrounded from above. Finally, about six Octoroks pop up from the water below. ¤
All contestants: WHAT IN THE NAME OF THE TRIFORCE IS THIS ALL ABOUT?!?
Nabooru: This is your challenge, of course! EVERYBODY, TO YOUR PLACES!!!!
¤ The entire group of newcomers, sans the Zora who are already in their places, scatter to various points in the valley: Cucco Lady and the carpenters are on the bridge, and the others are in random points in the valley. ¤
Saria: Wait a minute, what are the Kokiri doing here? I thought they couldn't leave the forest!!!
Nabooru: They gained permission from the Deku Tree's sprout, just like you did.
Saria: But I'm the Sage of the Forest!!! I don't NEED permission! It's just……understood that I can leave!
Nabooru: Whatever. But the point is, they were allowed to leave and now they're here. Okay?
Saria: Yeah. Sure, sure.
Nabooru: Now, this challenge is a test of your agility, balance, and your ability to kick REALLY hard. This is how the game will work:
One contestant from Tresaid will stand on this side of the rope, and one contestant from Solain will stand on THAT side of the rope on the other side of the canyon. When I say to go, both contestants will walk, or however you want to get across, out to the middle of the rope and stop at the red line. Then you will have to get down and hang by your arms or hands or whatever and play a game of "Chicken". Bombchu Guy will catch you, so don't worry if you fall.
But that's not all! You have to dodge various obstacles. Dodging it will result in getting points, and getting hit will result in losing points. Both dodging and getting hit will result in the same amount of points either awarded or taken away. Here is how the points match up:
Deku seed: 1 point
Deku nut: 2 points
Boomerang: 3 points
Octorok rock: 4 points
Bomb: 5 points
Cucco: 10 points
The winner of the game of chicken will get 20 points, and the loser gets nothing. Falling off the rope for reasons other than losing the chicken game will result in a penalty of 15 points. There will be three matches. At the end of all three, the points will be calculated and the tribe with the most points wins.
Link: What does that have to do with FOOD?!?
Nabooru: I'm not finished! Let me talk! As I was JUST ABOUT TO SAY, the loser of the game gets a lifetime supply of Cheez-E-Puffs.
Rauru: O_O!!! WHERE ARE THEY?!?
Nabooru: You'll find out soon enough. Either they will be in your camp, or Solain's camp. It all depends on who wins and who loses.
Rauru: Oh…..
Nabooru: Now, Solain, since you have four members and Tresaid has two, you'll need to have one of your members sit out.
Saria: I'll sit out. I definitely won't have the advantage in the chicken part.
Link: But you're the smallest! You can dodge all the obstacles the easiest!
Impa: That's where all the points lie!
Ruto: Where's Frank?
Link: I'll sit out. I never was good at that game, and Mido loved to rub it in my face. I'm not sure if I'd really want to play all that bad ever again.
Saria: Are you sure?
Ruto: Has anyone seen Frank?
Link: I'm positive. Go get 'em, you guys!
Impa: If you say so. I'll do my best!
Saria: Me too!
Ruto: OMIGOSH! I LEFT HIM BACK AT CAMP!!!
¤ Ruto begins to run off towards camp, only to be grabbed by the arm by Impa just in time. ¤
Impa: Oh no, you don't! We need you here to play! We need to win immunity!
Ruto: But….but….
Saria: No buts! He'll be fine!
Ruto: WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!! I WANT MY FRANKIE-POO!!!! WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!
Link: Someone shut her up!
Saria: Ack! What a horrible noise!
¤ Impa somehow manages to cover Ruto's huge mouth. With her other hand, she grabs the whiny Zora's hands and pins them behind her. ¤
Impa: QUIET.
Ruto: Mmmfmm mfmfmfmfmfm!!! Mmmmmffff!
Solain: WHAT?!?
Impa: Oops!
¤ Impa uncovers Ruto's mouth. ¤
Ruto: THANK YOU! I SAID, Okay! I'll stay!
Saria: That's a relief!
Link: You guys win this!
Impa: Will do!
All Solain: LET'S DO IT!!!
Nabooru: Well, it appears we're out of time for this show! Click in next time when we come back with Colossus: the Hylian survival adventure!
¤ The theme song plays, the credits roll, and in the background, as the camera pulls out, we see the contestants getting ready to participate in the challenge. The screen fades out, and the show ends. ¤
Heh…..Sorry I didn't get the challenge posted this update, but I think that this chapter is long enough as it is, don't you? Anyways, start thinking about who you want to vote out, like a person from each tribe or something like that. Remember: you can only vote once per council so make it count! I'm Sheik, telling you to review this story and watch for updates. See ya!
