Gohma

A big pool of lava sat in the middle of the room.

Things seem ok here... Link thought.

He looked up and saw a strange thing hanging from a hole in the ceiling...

"Uh-oh..." Link said faintly.

It was the Great Valoo's tail!

Medli said that there was a creature in this room that was doing harmful things to that tail...

At that moment, a monstrous bug-like creature rose from the depths of the lava!

It was at least 50 feet tall, and sort of resembled a magtail, only it wasn't on fire.

This creature's name was Gohma.

It screeched, and dug its claw-like arms in the ground on both sides of Link.

The ground rumbled, and Link fell backward.

"Hey-!"

Its large eye was only two feet away from him, and it was as big as he was!

Gohma reared up again to an upright position.

"Ok, what do I do here!" Link said in a shaky tone as he trembled with panic and exhaustion.

"AAH!" Link yelped in pain as a large claw came down and scratched him.

There had to be someway to kill this bitch!

But how?

Or at least there should be a way to escape!

The dragon's tail resembled a grappling hook point!

Of course! He used his new item on the tail.

Maybe Link could escape the attacks if he was in the air. It was possible that Gohma couldn't hit him from the air. All it did was stare at him with that big, hideous eye, waiting for him to fall down...

And that's exactly what happened.

Link slipped off the rope, and both he and the grappling hook fell onto the ground.

He slid, and hit the wall.

Link waited for the creature to attack, but it didn't.

A large rock had fallen on top of Gohma, cracking its shell.

But it got enough strength to lift the rock back into place.

Link grinned.

"So that's the catch, eh?" he said, beginning to understand how to do this.

His grappling hook wrapped around the dragon's tail.

Link swung to the other end of the room, and dropped to the ground, more gracefully this time.

The same thing happened. The rock fell, and cracked Gohma's shell even more.

One more hit from the rock should do it! Link thought.

Swoosh!

The grappling hook whisked through the air and got a nice hold on the end of the spiky tail.

For the third time, Link used the grappling hook to swing to the opposite side of the room.

He landed on his hands and knees, and watched the rock fall and break Gohma's shell off!

"YES!"

But the creature was not dead. All the attack had done was break the outer shell.

The creature had caught on to Link's plan. It stayed only a few feet away from him, its eye staring at him with anger.

Gohma was too close, and Link couldn't get his grappling hook to the tail of Valoo.

"Uh..."

Link backed up slowly.

"OWWW!" he screamed in pain as Gohma hit him with its claw, scraping Link's leg.

It began to bleed.

"(Beeping) BITCH!" he shouted, throwing the metal part of his grappling hook at the creature's eye.

That seemed to do a lot of damage!

Link began to slash the eyeball with his sword.

He repeated this once more, and Gohma reared up, screeching in pain.

It stiffened, and then exploded.

Gohma's head landed next to Link, who jumped to the side and squealed like a scared little school girl.

"EW! GROSS!"

Valoo instantly began to calm down.

"Wow... I killed it!" Link said, "I saved an entire village from destruction! And what really makes me feel good inside is the fact that I did it for 100 rupees! Now I'm going to get all that money! WOOHOO!"

He spotted a little swirling gust of wind in the middle of the room, sort of like a mini tornado, and walked into it.

"AH!"

It began to spin, and then it vanished into thin air with Link inside of it.
