'Cling!' 'Clang!' Link and the eyegore exchanged hits.

Link swung into the eyegore's chest, but wait the eyegore blocked the blow, and returned with... nothing really.

Link wondered why the eyegore was only fighting defensively, after all, he was giving it all he had.

"Hey, aren't you going to fight me?!" Link said loudly. But as soon as Link stopped fighting so did the eyegore.

Then Link noticed it, a small potatoe-like creature attatched to the eyegore's head.

"What is that thing?" Link thought aloud.

Then the potatoe thing started to shake, and the eyegore's eye started to glow brightly.

"I know it must be more powerful than a beamos, but I also know that it doesn't take this long to discharge energy, what's going AACK!!" Link exclaimed as he jumped back from the gimongous crater in front of him.

"I-I-I don't think that my deku form can take a hit from that beam! However I also cannot change back because I'll get hit! What to do, what to do?!"

Then the eyegore started glowing more brightly.

"Uh, mabye I should... reflect...mabye... Hey! I can use my mirror shield!" Link said excitedly.

But when Link went to draw his shield...

"AAAAHHH!!!! My shield's a nut?!?!? Augh!" Link said before the eyegore fired.

Link then put up his shield in a hopeless attempt to block the attack.

BOOM!

"Am I alive?" Link said in shock. "Yes! Yes I am alive! Whooppee! Not that I ever doubted it for a second you see..." Link said jumping about. Then he noticed it. " The eyegore hasn't attacked me yet even though I've given him about every single opportunity. What's going on?"

Then whirled around to see the eyegore...

"It- it's staggering as if it was... hit..." Link said confused. Then the shards of something landed on his head.

"Ow! What hit me?" Link exclaimed, still seething with adrenaline from the previous bout.

"Hmm? This are... mirror shards... but why-" then Link realized what had happened.

"My nut reflected the blast into the ceiling... where a mirror apparantly was... causing the blast to hit the mirror, bounce off and hit the eyegore, but there's no damage to the eyegore. What's going on??"

Then he saw the reason, a few meters from where the eyegore stood, lied the smoldering remains of the potatoe creature.

"Oh, that's gross." Link said, looking at the bubbling black and purple remains.

Then the eyegore's dazed look left it , and it looked around confused.

Link didn't move a muscle. He thought to himself that this thing was probably controlled by that thing.

"Ohhh no, I think I destroyed its control mechanism; now one of two things might happen: if he's sentient he'll either kill me, or thank me, but if he's an animal I'm more than likely screwed over, but there is that tiny chance that the potatoe thing amplified his power, as well as controlling him, although there is a chance that monkeys are blue, but you don't see that happening. I hate this situation!!"

Then the eyegore looked at Link, and, however you could know this from an eye, looked happy.

"Uh oh, it saw me... hey, it's turning toward that door I tried to come through, and flexing, and- holy crap he's gonna fire!"

BOOM!

Although the eyegore hit the door full force with its eye-beam, the door remained unscathed. But the results were still very promising. Now Link could behold the massive door in all of its glory.

"Man..." Link said amazed. "No wonder I grabbed a skulltula, they were covering the entire door almost."

What Link said was true, the door he had seen was about 6 feet wide, and 7 feet tall where the light shown the greatest; but the actual door was far larger, several times larger.

"Uh, I guess I'll just go in now... right?" Link asked still kind of shocked.

But the eyegore shook its head. It showed that it before Link could enter, the door that he needed the key. Link thought this meant the grueling task of finding it, but he lucked out. The eyegore held the key. But even with the key, Link couldn't reach the keyhole 7 feet up.

"Um, can I ask for some help here?" Link said almost sheepishly.

The eyegore happily agreed.

It slowly turned the key.

"Click"

And the doors opened, slowly but surely. And then the door opened too- another hallway, with another door. Link almost died.

"Another door... why?! Why is there another door?! Have I not suffered enough?"

The eyegore looked at Link funnily. Then the eyegore sighed, and opened the door easily.

"Oh. I'd kinda forgotten that some doors don't need keys; heh!" Link said rubbing his head with that grin of his.

"Now... I must defeat Odolwa!" Link said and he walked through the door.

**********************************************************

"Where is Link?!" Tetra said impatiently. "He should have beaten that stupid Odwat or whatever already! There is no excuse for this!" Tetra yelled at the sky. " I mean he handled Ganon in a few hours, some less than that, but here he's taken days! I mean how hard could this guy be?!"

"Does she always rant like this?" the deku queen asked.

"Most times, she just releases her anger to the sea, I guess the lack of large expanses of water is troubling her." Aryll said nonchalantly.

" So what's it like out there in the open world?" the deku queen asked.

"Oh, not as dry as it is here. I've never seen an open plain in all of my life." Aryll said grinning.

"You mean it's all water?"

"Mostly; a few mountain-tops still stick out, but no large land-masses."

"Wow."

"And to make it worse, a huge wind blows across the sea; powerful too, enough.. too... Augh!"

"What? What is it Aryll?" Tetra said concerned.

"Grandma... Outset... they only had three days... its been weeks..."

"Gasp! Oh... no... I'd gotton so rapped up in our situation... I'd tottaly forgotton." Tetra said sadly.

"Grandma... Orka... that little piggie I sheltered for months... gone..."

"Aryll... I'm sorry..."

But Aryll didn't listen; she just ran out of the room.

*******************************************

"Emperor Odolwa! There's a deku guard here to see you. Should we let him in?"

"Let it be so." Odolwa said.

"Emperor Odalwa I presume." Link said cockily.

"Hrm."

"I'll take that as a yes."

"What is it that you want deku peon?"

"Only too... takeoveryourkingdomandfreethedekus."

"What?"

"Freethedekus- there I said it happy, okay, let's go."

"What is wrong with you?"

"Uh...."

"Your not a deku!"

"What gave that away?"

"Dekus don't have blond leaves!"

"Crap....Oh! Um... Ah ha! Just as I thought you would, you have discovered my plan! And that was part of my plan! So suscumb to my plaaan!"

"Uh, guards sieze him!"

"Now I will take off my mask to reveal...."Link started, taking off his mask

"No... It cannot be! Not you again..."

"Yes, it is me Link! Your destructor!"

"L-link, the hero of time... him...HIM!"

Then Odolwa pulled out his sword.

"Y-you m-must DIE!"

Then Odolwa charged Link.

"Whoa!" Link said narrowly dodging the attack.

"Stand still!"

"Fat chance!" Link said rapidly dodging every assault.

"Die-die-DIE!"

"Whoa! Why are you so angry?! Even Ganon didn't want me dead this badly."

"Y-you defeated me... y-you humiliated me by beating me in seconds... and you nearly killed me many times, no matter how strong I became!"

"What?! The deku queen said he- I mean I only fought you once!"

"Um, you did, I... uh... DIE!!"

"Man this guy creeps me out! I'd better watch it!"

Then Odolwa pulled back his sword, dipped it into a black substance, and swung.

What will happen next find out next time!
