Guru-Guru: This is gonna start as one of my more traditional author's notes, since Blu isn't here yet. Yes, the paper thing is similar to an IM conversation, but I actually came up with the idea by combining two elements from Harry Potter. The first is Tom Riddle's diary and the way that it writes back at you. The second is the DA galleons. The ones that all change to imitate the original. Kudos to anyone who thought of that before reading it.
Announcer Guy: We now return you to your regularly scheduled insanity.
Luna-Blu: Is that my cue?
Announcer Guy: Yes.
Luna-Blu: Umm...LINE!
Guru-Guru: Don't look at me...
TK: -reads off of a script- Luna-Blu: Hi, all you Zelda lovers you, ready for another chapter of fun, fun, fun?!
Luna-Blu: I am not saying that.
Asako: *whispers*
Luna-Blu: My farts smell like...WAIT A SECOND! DAMMIT, ASAKO!
TK: Okay, works for me. -throws the script in random direction, hitting Asako-
Guru-Guru: Okay... Let's just get on with it, shall we?
Rebirth of the Deity
Chapter 10
Day Eight: 2:00 PM
Blu's POV
South Clock Town
"A little to the left...no more...right…right...NO! YOUR OTHER RIGHT! Come on...little more...right about...more to the left..."
Asako dropped her half of the sign, making her sister flutter even faster. "MAKE UP YOUR DAMN MIND!"
"Fine, fine...just put it right above the doorway." Both the fairies glared at me, seeing as I had them on the other side of the roof. "Well? I made up my mind, now move!"
"BLU! I NEED YOUR HELP WITH THIS BOULDER!" I turned in the direction of the shout.
"Kimiko! Why would there be a boulder in the middle of..." I walked over and right into a very large rock. "...town."
"Did you forget what the Fierce Deity did to this place not even 10 minutes ago? By the way, you're supposed to be reconstructing it exactly the way it was before using your powers, not ordering fairies to move signs how you like them."
"The Fierce Deity? Kimiko, that was your dad..."
"Yeah, I know, but it's easier to call him that. Besides, he might as well be the Fierce Deity. From what I understand, the same thing that made him the way he is made the deity the way he was."
For a second I thought about the poem carved into the tablets. It made me shudder. "I just don't get how that dude gave up his life and then is tempted right then and there!"
"You know, there could be a timeframe in that story none of us know about." I turned to Makoto.
"So? He still was dumb, but not dumber than his town! They killed each other for no reason!"
"There WAS a reason, dummy, it's just not listed in the text!"
"They were still dumb!"
"You do realize that there's no way that the gauntlet could possibly be good, don't you? Think about the way it always creates a side effect. Think about the near limitless power inside of it! The evil in that gauntlet is why they were fighting!"
I was about to say something, mouth hanging open and everything, but I decided I'd better not. If something can corrupt Link, THE Link, it had to be pure evil. Instead, I turned to the rock, which disappeared in a matter of seconds. Thank you, Kitsune!
"Thanks for doing something constructive. Well, I guess that's the last of iiiiiiiiiiiit!" That's when the ground underneath us gave way. The fairies followed just before the hole that swallowed us closed.
"Where are we?"
"Well, if you look at those bars behind us that lead to a waterwheel, and considering where we are, plus my dad's stories, I'd say we're in the Clock Town Temple?"
My eyebrow twitched. "...temple?" Kimiko nodded. I turned to the now covered ceiling. "Why, Goddesses, DO YOU WISH TO TORTURE US SO?!"
"Damn," Asako addressed Kimiko, "Is she ALWAYS such a drama queen?" Kimiko, of course, nodded again in reply.
"I AM JUST SICK AND TIRED OF THE TEMPLE THING! HOW ABOUT MAKING SOMETHING THAT YOU CAN'T GET LOST FOR HOURS IN!"
"You could get lost for hours in a closet, now come on." I glared at Kimiko who just flashed a satisfied smile.
Day Eight: 2:00 PM, Two Hours Later
Kimiko's POV
Clock Town Temple
I'd have thought my watch was broken if my dad hadn't told me about the time standing still thing that exists in the clock tower. And when you're with Blu, time standing still is NOT a good thing. "I'm bored." "Are we there yet?" "I have to go to the bathroom!" Wouldn't you know it, we came across a Rubik's Cube (not that Blu's smart enough to do one), a "You Are Here" map, and a bathroom...
As Blu ran for the bathroom, after blowing up what she called 'the cube from Hell', I checked out the 'You Are Here' map, which really came from a chest like any other. Both of the fairies sat on my shoulders, seeing as neither wanted to know what our fair demon does with her bathroom time. While Makoto read over, well FROM my shoulder really, her sister seemed very infixed on the pile of ash what was once a Rubik's Cube.
"Why'd she blow it up?"
"Because it was annoying me, like you're starting to do..." said Blu, emerging from the bathroom. Asako gave a yelp and hid in Blu's pack.
"Look at this, Blu. This map says that there's another branch of the temple that my parents never explored. See? This hallway leads to the boss room, which we don't need to do, and this one leads to some sort of altar, then it comes out somewhere past there."
"Wonderful! More ALTARS!"
"What's her problem?" Makoto asked me.
"Oh, nothing, she just died on one..."
"TWICE!" Blu added. Both of the fairies seemed very disturbed that our Blu was once deceased...I mean, twice deceased...
"Don't freak out about it too bad. I mean, she hadn't even been alive again for five hours when you met us!" That was enough to send both Makoto and Asako into the bathroom Blu had just left. Retching sounds could be heard.
"What is THEIR problem?" Blu shot me a smile, something that I had been needing to see on one of us for a long time. We were in way over our heads.
"Well, it's not like they should be surprised, right? I mean, it's US we're talking about here." I returned the friendly banter and the two of us waited for our...sickened companions to return from their little pit-stop.
"Feeling better, little LIVING ones?" Blu asked in the most sickeningly sweet voice I've ever heard. I didn't even think she was capable of that.
"Nice try, but our stomachs are already empty," replied Asako, although it looked like she might hurl again.
"Can we get moving? That dummy will only confuse Link for so long." Makoto started pulling on my long ear. "Come on!"
"All right, all right! The map says that the split is just ahead and it's a short walk to the exit from there."
"I hate this place." Blu crossed her arms as she slowly followed behind. What she has with dungeons, I will never know. "Why can't people just hand you the stuff you need? Or better yet, NOT BE EVIL AND MESS WITH OUR FAMILY AND LIVES!"
"Down girl." Blu glared at her fairy.
"SHUT UP!" Blu flicked the fairy off my shoulder, much to the delight of her sister. "I HAVE MY OWN DAMN REASONS! NONE OF YOUR BEESWAX!"
"Calm down, Blu. We're here. The door's just on the other side of...this...altar..." As I stepped on the altar, I started feeling dizzy. Then, out of nowhere, I started screaming in a voice that was not my own. In fact, I would have sworn it was my dad's scream...
"Kimiko? Are you all right?" asked Blu, fairies shoved in her sensitive ears. I just shook my head. Eventually, the scream died down, leaving everyone feeling lightheaded.
"Blu?" The last thing I saw before I passed out was her doing the same.
