I don't own Zelda, isn't that right Nick?
Nick: Umm...how did I get here? Weren't you just moping about how you never see me?
Kirsty: Yes. You are a figment of my imagination but I don't care...*glomps the empty space...see what happens when you don't see your best friend for a year?* I'll let go if you tell me I don't own Zelda...
Nick: you don't own Zelda. -_-
Kirsty: exactly. Oh yeah, I put stars around thoughts and bolded them because it wouldn't load the italicization!
"So, what is going on tomorrow?" Renzoku asked curiously, her eyes getting big, like a cat's when they are about to pounce on an unsuspecting ribbon. "Oh, I am just going to meet my friend Ruto tomorrow, that's all." Shanti vaguely replied. "Oh. What are you going to do?" Ren asked.
*I want my question answered! Is Shanti lesbo or not?*
"Oh, just something uninteresting. I am sure a young girl like you wouldn't find it at all entertaining. You would just say 'that's silly' or 'can I come watch?' or something stupid and corny like that...little kids, jeez..." Shanti replied. "I am not as young as you may think!"
*I won't tell her my real age, no, then she would suspect...so I will cut my age down a bit...I think I should tell her...15? Yeah that is good, a bit young but then she won't even have a clue! *
Renzoku thought to herself, glad she could read Shanti's mind and that it was not the other way around.
"Well then...how old ARE you?" Shanti was confused.
*Her face looks like that of a 9-year-old and yet she is so tall...how old could she be?*
She pondered. "OH, I am 15, and yes, my innocence and my magic allow me to look like I am 9. Sorry for any confusion."
*From what I can tell, this girl is very, uhm, powerful. And she is very soft-spoken. Also probably very kind but very cold sometimes. That's all I can tell. Definitely powerful in the magic arts. I wonder what the extent of her powers is?*
Shanti pondered, figuring that this girl could read minds. "Oh, I am very soft-spoken indeed, and very polite, but when it comes to enemies I will kill them faster than you can figure out what my name means. So please, tell me, what are you doing with your friend Ruto? And I can't sense any magical aura from you. How can you switch from Zora to humanoid?" Ren asked. "Oh, just a potion. And if you thought turning into a Zora was cool, wait until you find out what ELSE I can turn into-" Shanti slapped her hands over her mouth.
* I am being both childish and careless, blast she might catch on!*
"Catch on to what? Oh I am so sorry, I am not used to being around..." she sighed very deeply. "People." She finished.
*I am just a loner. For a good reason too. Someday, though, someday I will-*
"Well, goodnight kiddo." Shanti said, breaking Renzoku's train of thought. "Goodnight, and I should be calling YOU kiddo, like I said, this spell only makes me LOOK 9, I am really older than you are, nyah!" Renzoku pulled down the bottom of her eye and stuck out her tongue, but it was too dark for Shanti to see it. The next morning, Shanti was already gone.
*Hmm.Should I use spell two... or spell three? ... Spell three! An odd number to find an odd person, right?*
Ren laughed to herself. She muttered something under her breath. " WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE? And what is with the special effects?" Shanti cried, sweating. "Oh, just a little something to make me look cool. What are you doing?" A Zora, apparently Ruto, stepped in. "I would still prefer a water race." She said. Ah I see, so they are RACING each other. That explains a lot! Renzoku was relieved. She didn't want to have to follow some weirdo around. Not that it is really THAT weird compared to Renzoku's abilities, but still...
"A land race is my final offer. From Lake Hylia to Gerodo bridge and back. Ready? Go!" "WAIT!" Ruto screamed. "NOT FAIR! Ok, so we can race more than once, right?" she grinned awkwardly. "So lets swim oh, say 30 laps around Lake Hylia first..." she started, still grinning. "Wait a minute, 30 laps around Lake Hylia is IMPOSSIBLE to do if there is gonna be MORE after that! Honestly, have you SEEN how ENORMOUS that thing is?! How about 3 and then we race on foot AROUND the lake 10 times-" Shanti argued. "Fine with me. Lets go." They both dove into the sparkling lake, Ruto swimming as hard as she could, Shanti keeping a steady pace and falling far behind...
They reached the marker, which was a very large rock, on their third lap and jumped out of the lake and started running. Ruto started looking tired. She showed it too, slowing steadily in the pace. Meanwhile, Shanti hadn't run out of energy because of her pacing and soon was behind her by an arm's length. As they approached the tenth time seeing the particularly large, spiky, white rock, Ruto yelled, "Hey, lets swim against the current in the Gerudo River! How about twice back and forth?" "Sure, whatever" Shanti said, she too began to feel the fatigues of running and swimming in her arms and legs. She felt her legs were suddenly gonna stop moving and she would sink as fast as your favorite bracelet in the middle of the ocean. (I have lost SO many bracelets to the ocean...anyway...) But miraculously she took the lead up the river around the second time swimming up. She became more paranoid that she was gonna faint with every passing second.
"Hey, how about we run 20 laps around that cottage over there" Shanti gestured to the cottage a few miles away from the river. By this time, Renzoku indeed WAS bored. She had tried to fight it; she didn't want Shanti to be right, but she just couldn't. She was as bored as a kid in school when it is snowing outside. So terribly bored, she felt like she could die. She fell to her knees, screaming a single word, "Hitori". She screamed it so loudly that Shanti, a mile away, was holding her ears in agony.
Repeatedly, she couldn't stop herself. She held the word for about 30 seconds every time she said it, which would give herself time to think about stopping and prepare to do so, but every time, "Hitori" just rolled off her lips. She didn't know the word, besides that it was Japanese, and the only Japanese words she knew were kawaii, yume, and renzoku. (Cute, dream, and continuous). So why did she yell it?
Shanti and Ruto had coped with it and ignored it by now, having raced three more races during the time she had been screaming. She still was. Shanti yelled "I can't stand it much longer, I gotta shut her up, so this is the final race: on foot, from Gerudo Bridge to Lake Hylia, there is the bridge, ready? GO!" the set off running from the bridge to the lake.
*Renzoku is over by the lake, so I can just shut her up at the end of the race. Perfect. But why yell Hitori? I don't think she even knows what it MEANS. I do, I wish she wouldn't scream it.*
Shanti set on full speed and, from far behind, passed Ruto and dived into Lake Hylia.
"Man, that really hits the spot! All that running got me all hot and sweaty but man this lake is COLD!" Shanti splashed Ruto as she arrived. "GRRR!" Ruto stormed off, irritated. "Renzoku, what the heck are you screaming?" Renzoku didn't stop at all. "Renzoku!" Shanti yelled. "SHUT UP!" she screamed. Very softly, Renzoku rolled out a slow, sad "Hitori...I can't take it anymore...hitori..." and then threw herself into the lake. Noticing that Renzoku had not emerged yet she dove down. Ren was sinking to the bottom, and was nearly at her destination. She had a nice, understanding smile on her face. Her eyes were very shiny and half-closed, and she smiled in the smallest, most pleasant way. She didn't even extend a hand to Shanti as she saw her diving. She seemed happy to die.
*I am NOT letting you die; I still need to chew you out for screaming words you don't know! Little miss "I-am-so-perfect-I-can-read- your-mind-I'm- not-used-to-humans-cuz-I'm-a-loner-look-at-me!" I HATE when she does that. She says she is a loner so proudly, and yet she screams hitori like it's a bad thing to her. I bet she just wants attention, well I am gonna yell at her for a while, so she will get it, eh? I will have two lectures, one on not screaming in a peaceful town and another about not sinking to the bottom of really cold lakes before I tell her that it is ok for her to die! I am gonna catch pneumonia! What is this girl THINKING? Oh well, I won my race, score! *
Shanti smiled and did a small victory dance. Suddenly it hit her that Ren was still sinking...
Shanti finally grabbed on to the girl and swam to the surface. Ren struggled to get away from her.
*It is like she WANTS to die, but why would someone like HER want to DIE? I have had my moments but I have never considered THIS. I wished I had never been born many times, and I wished to be killed by others, but I never wished to be killed by myself.*
Lying on the grass, Shanti forced Ren to breathe. "What the heck are you thinking?!" Shanti yelled. "Hitori" she whispered. "What does it mean?" Ren coughed violently. "Alone. It means alone. So why would a girl such as yourself be screaming it?" Shanti seriously wanted to know, NOT. She didn't care less about Ren's past, but she DID want to know why she was screaming a word she didn't know. It struck Shanti as odd. Then again, everything about Renzoku struck Shanti as odd...
"I guess it fits then. Well, I wonder what we are supposed to do now? I have to change but I can do that in the tent tomorrow morning. I don't know where, but we are supposed to go SOMEWHERE I feel it. It's like I had a vision but I can't recall it."
"Renzoku, isn't it?" a girl walked up to her and said. "Yes, but last time I saw you was...when you opened that fridge up and then locked yourself in a room. Yes, Seana? What do you need?" Renzoku remembered that bug-a-phobic girl. "I have been having some after effects of your vision."
* After effects? Hmm, must be because I didn't remember to modify it for human's senses...*
"What KIND of after effects?" Renzoku asked, wondering what they might possibly be. "I saw something. It just appeared in my head. It showed me this girl wandering around. She looked like you, so I guess that is who it was. You went to the Kokori Forrest and found an emerald there, you next went to Goron Mountain, where you found a ruby. Lastly, you went to Zora's fountain, where you found a sapphire. All three of these places had terrible, gruesome monsters tormenting the owners of these valuable gems...what were they called...spiritual stones? Something like that... then you met a beautiful woman. She gave you some kind of instrument, like an ocarina of some sort. She looked kinda like someone, but I can't recall who."
"Thank you, your side effects should end once you have told me that. The vision was meant for me and now that I have the knowledge I require everything should be peachy from now on. Ok?" Renzoku smiled, she had been talking softly the whole time and was very polite. "You ARE polite to other people! God, I thought it wasn't possible! You are gonna make me throw up you know that? Being all proper and fancy, someone would think you were Princess Zelda or something! Next thing we know you will be talking about a guy who wears a strange green hat and how he is 'so dreamy' and how you are gonna marry him someday.... GOD you make me SICK!" Shanti stepped in. "Well actually, there was this guy I once knew, he didn't wear a green hat, but he was so-" Renzoku started dreaming. "But I guess I am supposed to stick with you, being that we need to go to Kokori Forrest and I need you to help me strategize against that 'gruesome monster'" Shanti butt in, not wanting to hear about this dream guy of Renzoku's. "Well, lets go."
Heading off, Renzoku sighed. "He was SO dreamy...he had the coolest blonde-brown hair and the most amazing blue eyes that I could get lost in forever. He was so sweet, but he was a real jerk most of the time. I haven't seen him in a long time I wonder what he is doing now?" Renzoku put her hands behind her head while she walked. Shanti literally threw up in the bushes. "I don't handle that romance crap well ok, so just please, SHUT UP!" she said as Renzoku giggled.
*He was a great guy, but I will never forgive him for his deeds! Well, Shanti doesn't need to know a thing about Niku! Then she would DEFINITELY catch on.*
"I think that the spell of yours makes you ACT like you're nine too! Such a child! Ugh!" Shanti cursed under her breath. "Looks like we have arrived at Kokori Forrest, when should I start strategizing?" Renzoku asked. Shanti slapped her own forehead. "You were supposed to do that on the WAY! IDIOT!" She yelled. "Wonder what's IN there..." They both stared in amazement, Shanti screamed.
Authors notes: Sorry for the confusion, and sorry I left you hanging. IM SO SORRY! Go me! Mevy, for the sake of our sanity, you had better write fast!
Mevy: I write a lot faster than YOU do, miss "I'm-not-gonna-post-for-a- month".
Nick: Hey, I got a mention! What did you call my character?
Kirstyn: Niku. God I hate your character.
Nick: I'm not even IN this story!
Kirsty: Yeah I know, but any character of YOURS is gonna be one I hate. Why don't you call me more often?
Nick: I lost your number. Besides I thought you HATED me.
Mevy: you two are way off the subject.
Kirsty: Oh yes, the next chapter is yours Mevy. Have fun!
Mevy: Joy, well, at least my chapter will be longer than yours!
Kirsty: Uhn, well, *pulls down bottom eyelid and sticks out tongue*
Mevy: Oh god, you are such a child.
Kirsty: Don't throw up, this is a new car.
Mevy: What car?!
Kirsty: Sorry, always wanted to say that.... Anyway, shouldn't you be WRITING?!
Mevy: Again, I write faster than YOU do.
Kirsty: You should be making up for my lost time then.
Mevy: ugh. Official end to the Authors Notes in this chapter, goodbye everyone.
