Chapter 15- Zelda Joins the Fray
Disclaimer- I don't own Zelda. I don't own anything related to Zelda. I do own any other character besides Zelda and co. You get the picture. This is getting real old…
After Janet and I wandered into the Aqua Tower, we were swimming for about thirty minutes, Five minutes into the Tower. I, of course, was completely beat. "Are you okay, Joan?" Janet asked me. "I… am… completely… wiped… of… energy… Help!" As you can see, I couldn't speak normal words. Then both of us saw a light. "Light…" She helped me swim up to the light. Then, our heads popped out of the water, and onto dry land. She set me onto the wall. I was dripping like crazy! Janet, on the other hand, either absorbed the water, or it just fell off all at once. Why? Because she wasn't dripping. I felt a burn on my hand, and then I got all of my energy back. "I feel good-as-new! Good ol' Triforce!" I said. And, I was very, very invigorated. "Good! Let's keep going up the stairs." Janet said, sounding like a coach. Lovely, stairs. By the time we got to the time we'd get to the next pool of water, I'd be sore again. "Let's get going before I get sore about thinking about going up fifty flights of stairs." I said with such an agony, that I was darker than this place was. But that was because we were still underwater. If we were going to see our friends, we would have to go up another few floors.
So we started up the steps. And we went up step after agonizing step. Walking and walking up the steps of doom, that were slowly bringing me into their stepdom. And if there were one thousand steps here, then I would be the one thousand and… first? Then SPLASH… into some water.
"Yah!" I said. "Joan, yah? I thought you hated swimming!" Janet asked. "No more evil agonizing steps. Yah!" I said again. "I see the steps have worn you out." Said a voice from behind us. It was, Shiek? "C'mon Zelda. You can't fool us. I know Shiek is Zelda, and you are way rusty from lack of practice. Your voice is too high." I said. "Yeah, Zelda. So take off that disguise. Besides, Shiek is way taller!" Janet said.
"Alright fine. But neither of you had better look. And cover your ears, you'll learn why in a second." This voice belonged to Zelda. Of course, her voice was a lot higher than Sheik's voice, even as a child. Janet jumped in the water and started swimming up ahead. I simply put on my goggles and swam below. Then, I heard the scream that pierced, even underwater, and knocked me out. It came from Zelda. "AAAIIIIIEEEEEGH!"

When I woke up, Zelda was waiting above me. She was waiting for us. "What happened?" I asked. "I taped myself up like a mummy before I left." Zelda said, "That way, I'd look like a boy. But I had to pull it all off. You don't ever want to do that. Trust me."
"So why did you come here?" I asked.
