Me: Well what do you know? PEOPLE REVIEWED!
Phoenix: Incredible, I thought you wouldn't get any reviews.
Me: Don't ruin my moment Mr. I'm-so-damn-sarcastic-all-the-time!
Phoenix: Whatever.
Me: Let's answer reviews!
Atchika: Link was basically supervising the trip of the book and to guard it from anything. Guess the job is harder than he thought.
Midnight Starfire: You don't need to pick the story apart with tweezers. What I would really like is for you to inform me of any obvious mistakes I may have made. Again, I NEED ALL THE HELP I CAN GET!
Me: Ok, I'm taking a gamble on this. I've noticed a lot of people are still answering reviews after April 19, so I'll do it too. I'm going to pray this story isn't removed.
Phoenix: I'll laugh if it does.
Me: Watch it you.
Disclaimer: I don't own Zelda, parts of plot from Pirates of the Caribbean, Treasure Planet, and Sinbad. But I do own the characters on the pirate ship and maybe a few monsters and creatures.
The Legend of Zelda: Pirates and Men
Chapter 2: Monster!
As Phoenix and Link made it to the ship's deck, they saw a terrible thing. At the front of the ship, they saw a barrel-like body with golden scales, two long, suction-cupped tentacles as arms, and a serpent-like neck with a dragon's head on top. The tentacles were snatching up the guards on the deck and shoving them into the creature's mouth. The guards were trying to fight back, but their weapons were useless against the monster's scales.
After staring in awe for a few seconds, Phoenix turned away and ran to the left side of the cargo ship to swing aboard the pirate ship.
Link turned to see this and called out to the retreating captain, "We need help! Are you just going to leave us?"
Phoenix looked deep in thought for a second and answered, "Um, YEAH!"
Phoenix was about to jump to his ship when he noticed it wasn't there any more. It was in fact torn away from the cargo ship and flung a few miles away. Phoenix was speechless with anger, for he thought his ship and crew were destroyed.
"My, MY SHIP! Ok, that's it! You're going down you stupid squid!" and with that he joined the guards attacking the monster.
Link himself was in the fray, shooting arrows at the monster's head. Of course, against the armor of the monster, the arrows were not doing any damage. When he saw a tentacle heading his way, the Hylian jumped out of the tentacle's path. Unfortunately, a guard that was next to Link was exposed to the tentacle and he was immediately snatched up and dragged into the monster's mouth.
Link was uncertain that he and his men could defeat the creature, when Phoenix called out to him.
"Link!" he called, "Do you have any bombs on you?"
The green-clad Hylian was surprised at the question, but nodded his head.
"Toss me two will you?"
Still uncertain, Link threw two unlit bombs at the pirate. Phoenix caught them with ease, lit them, and them called out to the monster.
"HEY! SQUID HEAD! OVER HERE!"
The monster turned its head to look at the pirate who called to it. Still hungry it shot its tentacle at the captain. Reacting quickly, Phoenix threw the bombs at the hungry monster and dived out of the way. Thinking the bombs were food, the monster caught the two bombs and pulled them into the creature's hungry mouth.
Phoenix stood next to Link and told him, "Now, stand by for squid flambé!"
Nothing seemed to have happened at first, but then the monster trembled, and then belched out smoke, saliva, and a guard that was lucky enough not to have been killed by the bombs or the stomach acid. As the guard landed, he looked at his slime-covered body in horror, then rage, and picked up his sword and charged at the monster screaming many curses.
Link and Phoenix looked on in surprise and Phoenix muttered, "Give that guy a raise."
Meanwhile, the monster was enraged that the bombs had caused him some pain, and that they weren't edible. Seeing the pirate that had thrown him the bombs, the monster let out a thundering roar. The ferocity of the roar caused its breath to be like tornado winds, and while Link barely stood his ground, Phoenix was caught by surprise and blown back to the back of the ship.
As the captain sat there in a daze, the monster shot out its tentacle, intent on capturing and eating the stunned prey. Before the captain was caught in the tentacle however, Link jumped in the way, trying to push away the captain. However, that act put him in the path of the tentacle, and he was snatched him and pulled into the monster's mouth.
Phoenix looked on in horror as his savior was eaten by the creature, and was terrified to see that the tentacle was coming back for him! Before the tentacle wrapped itself around the captain, the creature stopped, realizing it's latest prey, Link, had halted its descent to the stomach. And before the creature could do anything, a sword protruded from the middle of creature's neck, and decapitated the doomed monster, Link jumping out of the bottom half of the neck onto the deck.
The head of the monster landed on the ships deck as well, a look of surprise and pain on its face. And the twitching body of the monster started to sink slowly into the sea. Link stood panting on the deck, a look of total disgust on his face. But who could blame him? He was covered in slime, blood, and other things Link did not want to think about.
Phoenix ran over to Link and put a hand on the Hylians slimy shoulder and said, "That Link, was excellent! You saved my life, and I thank you."
As the captain pulled away his hand away from Link's shoulder, he realized it was covered with slime, and he grimaced.
Phoenix kept congratulating Link by saying, "And you got a new trophy for yourself!"
But as Phoenix looked at it closer, he accidentally detailed the trophy. "A slimy, bloody trophy."
Seeing Link was looking queasy, the captain quickly added, "But a trophy! Now let's get you cleaned up."
Before the two could walk off, suddenly, out of reflex, one of the monster's tentacles wrapped itself around Phoenix and pulled him under the sea.
Me: Hoped you liked the battle scene! And I hope I made it detailed enough...
Phoenix: Whatever, I hate cliffhangers, but only when they are done to me. .
Both: REVIEW PLEASE!
