Guru-Guru: Here we go again...
Luna-Blu: I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS CHAPTER!
Luna-Blu: ...
Luna-Blu: Where the hell is Tobu-Ken?
Guru-Guru: Don't you remember? That's why you've been waiting for this chapter...
Luna-Blu: -blink- Right, I just miss his ranting and grammar checks...
Guru-Guru: That's what I'm here for.
Luna-Blu: ON WIT DA SHOW!
Guru-Guru: Okay!

Note: Enjoy this special treat of third person writing. It's the first and most likely last time since Father of Time, chapter 3 that you'll get to see it.

Rebirth of the Deity

Chapter 5

A rat scurried in zigzags across the damp stone floor of a dungeon. Its surroundings became lighter as it neared a small lantern placed near a young man. Knees on the floor, arms raised by the chains holding him, he sat there, unconscious, until the now blinded rat bumped into his soaked leg. He woke up with a start and uttered a yelp as the rodent scrambled into a dark corner. He didn't stand for a while. Instead, he took in the dungeon for what was, for him, the first time. Finally, assured he was no longer with his friends, he wobbled to his feet after a couple of tries. He studied his hands for a few minutes, almost counting each finger. The candle set into the wall danced over his icy blue orbs. Sweat began to mat his golden hair closer to his head. His sapphire eyes shifted from one side of the large and dark room. He tried to speak but could only produce grunts.
"Oh. So you're awake." The young man couldn't figure out where the voice was coming from or who it belonged to. He could only tell that it was soft, but forceful. "You can't imagine how long I've been waiting for this."
Somehow, the young man found his voice. "W-where a-am I?" His voice was handsome but also cracking under fear. The disembodied voice let out a sickening cackle that made him flinch. He pressed his back closer to the wall, hoping it would make him disappear, but the howl of laughter still filled the dungeon.
"YOU AMUSE ME!" the voice shrieked. "How can one of the bravest I know become a coward over night?!" The man pulled away from the cold stone and peered deeper into the darkness, trying to locate the thing addressing him. His eyes strained, but because of the darkness coating everything more then five feet in front of him, he couldn't even make out a silhouette.
"Wh-who are you?" He was deeply afraid by now. He didn't know of anybody alive who would hold him captive.
"You may not remember me, but I've known you for centuries. I know you by many names, but you only know one... What was it that Fox demon called you? Oh, that's right... Tobu-Ken..."

Guru-Guru: I love your talent for writing plot twists.
Luna-Blu: AHA! I BET YOU THOUGHT IT WAS LINK, RIGHT?!
Guru-Guru: That was the plan, and I think it worked out rather well...
Tobu-Ken: I loathe you all...
Guru-Guru: We're going to have to call Tobu-Ken by his new name, now.
Luna-Blu: Which is...
Luna-Blu: ...wait for it...
Luna-Blu: ...wait for it...
All: TK!
Guru-Guru: Oh, how original...
TK: That it is... I feel so loved...not.
Luna-Blu: Well, now I can hug you and not get cut! -hug-
TK: -blush-
Guru-Guru: Welcome to the club, pal.
TK: I like being hugged!
Guru-Guru: I repeat, welcome to the club.
Luna-Blu: -lets go and scoots away-
Asako: Whatever, now let's wrap this thing up!
Luna-Blu: Review!
