The song in this is "Whisper" by Evanesence. Just thought I'd let you know.

The Shadow's Song

Tetra tried to get away, but it was useless. She was stuck by what was most likely the same force that had lead her to this sick little clearing.

On sight, Bambi did not appear to be focusing on Tetra, but the air around the shadow claimed different. It was obvious that despite the fact that Bambi didn't have her eyes on Tetra, the pirate occupied her full attention. Bambi was laying on her back on that tall branch, staring up at the ceiling. One red eye shifted slightly to finally look at Tetra. It was a subtle move, but Tetra was able to notice it all the same.

Much to the pirate's surprise, the wretched thing began to sing...

"Catch me as I fall... Say you're here and it's all over now..." Bambi's head flopped all the way over onto its side so as to be able to look at Tetra with both eyes.

Tetra thought, Ok...why is she singing? And dammit, I still can't move! Oh, Link...if only you were here...

Continuing, "Speaking to the atmosphere; no one's here and I fall into myself..." Bambi rolled over onto her stomach, rested her chin on the backs of her hands, and smiled at Tetra, red eyes shining...seductively!

"This truth drives me into madness. I know I can stop the pain if I will it all away... If I will it all away..." Bambi sat up, crossed her arms, lifted her chin slightly, and sang on, "Don't turn away... Don't try to hide... Don't close your eyes... Don't turn out the light..."

Tetra tried to take a step back as the shadow lept from her perch and floated to the ground. Tetra tried once more as Bambi began to approach her, still singing that song.

"I'm frightened by what I see, but somehow I know that there's much more to come..."

Tetra tried to cry out at Bambi wrapped one arm around her hip and smirked.

BAD TOUCH, BAD TOUCH! Tetra's mind screamed, BAD, LESBIAN TOUCH!

"Immobilized by my fear, and soon to be blinded by tears..."

Bambi began to circle Tetra, guided by her arm that still remained about the pirate's hip.

At first, Tetra was baffled as to why Bambi was hitting on her and singing, but then she realized that it was some freaky-hypno trick, for she noticed that the longer this went on, the less control over herself she had.

Bambi played with Tetra's hair a little and continued, "I can stop the pain if I will it all away... If I will it all away... "Don't turn away... Don't try to hide... Don't close your eyes... Don't turn out the light..."

Tetra wanted to scream as Bambi laced fingers with her and touched noses with her. Red eyes looked lustful at a glance, but it was obvious that that was fake. Lust was only masking a taunting, mocking look. Tetra figured that Bambi probably thought the look on Tetra's face was quite amusing.

"Fallen angels at my feet, whispered voices at my ear; death before my eyes, lying next to me I fear... She beckons me shall I give in? Upon my end shall I begin? Forsaking all I've fallen for, I rise to meet the end..."

The hypnotic powers strengthened as the song advanced, and now Tetra found it hard to think clearly. Her thoughts were ebbing away as the lyrics flowed on.

"Don't turn away... Don't try to hide... Don't close your eyes... Don't turn out the light..."

Tetra found herself losing even more control, and along with it, conciousness. Bambi noticed this, and smirked even more.

"Don't turn away... Don't try to hide... Don't close your eyes... Don't turn out the light..."

Tetra manged to utter out, "S...stop..."

"Don't turn away... Don't try to hide... Don't close your eyes... Don't turn out the light..."

Too late. The song was done, and Tetra blacked out, having lost complete control over herself. She collapsed in Bambi's arms.

Bambi chuckled and turned back into her natural, human form.

"Silly, silly Tetra... Fool. Now that you are under my control, I shall have you kill Link. Unless, of course, something else in this dungeon doesen't do him in first." Bambi disappeared with her prize.

4 ghost creatures (Poes) appeared in front of Link. They were different from the Poes Link had encountered before. They were feminine, and twice as menacing looking.

"W...who the hell are you?" Link squeaked.

"I'm Beth," said the blue poe.

Said the red, "Joelle."

"I'm Amy," introduced the green.

"And I'm Meg," the purple one said.

"And we are your worst nightmare!" the Poe Sisters exclaimed in unison.

Gaylord growled and stood in front of Link.

"What are you going to do? Kill me? Kill me dead?" Link asked with a smirk to hide his fear of them.

Said Joelle, "Foolish boy child, don't fake confidence. We can smell your fear."

"Yes, smell your fear," the other 3 hissed.

"FEH! I'm not scared! I am like, waaay too macho to be...um...scared..."

"Liar," accused Meg.

"Liar," the other sisters repeated.

"We're gonna kill you," growled Beth.

"Yes, kill you," the others mimicked.

Link was getting slightly annoyed by the repeating crap. Drawing his stick warily, he said, "Then...um...come. I'm armed with a stick...ya know..."

The Poe Sisters laughed and pulled out rifles.

"Shit..." Link cursed under his breath.

"And now, you must die!" exclaimed Amy.

"Yes, die!" the others said.

"Wait! Please, don't kill me! PLEASE!" Link screamed, dropping the stick and begging on his knees. Gaylord looked away in shame.

The sisters exchanged looks before turning to gaze back at Link.

"And why shouldn't we?" asked Beth.

"Yes, why shouldn't we?" the other 3 echoed. Link twitched slightly.

"Umm... If you don't kill me, I'll sleep with you..." he said.

There was a moment of silence.

"Ok," said the sisters in unision. Then they all began fucking eachother. Even Gaylord helped.

A few hours later, the Poe Sisters and Link lay under a blanket, drinking martinis.

"Whew! You guys ain't half bad!" Link panted.

"You're not so bad yourself," Joelle complimented.

"Yes, you are not so bad yourself," the other 3 copied.

Link realized something. "Oh, damn, Tetra's gonna kill me if she finds out... Ah, well. Anyway, I DO wonder where the others are..."

"We can take you to them," Meg offered.

"Yes, take you to them," the other 3 Poe Sisters echoed.

"Well, I really don't want to, but I kind of have to. Got a bitch to kill, you know," Link told them, picking up Gaylord.

"Very well," said Amy. "It was nice sleeping with you. Good luck on your quest."

"Yes, good luck on your quest," came the echo before Link and Gaylord were teleported away.

Komali and Saria picked their way through the forest.

"Dammit, Saria, you got us lost! You, like, own this place! Should you AT LEAST know your way around it?" Komali asked irritably.

"Well, SOR-RY! This place got all fucked up and changed because of that Bambi person. Danger is around every corner!" Saria sighed exasperatedly.

Link and Gaylord suddenly appeared before them.

"Link! Gaylord!" Komali exclaimed.

"Link!" Saria cried happily.

Gaylord yipped.

"Where were you?" Saria asked.

"Just sleeping with some ghost chicks."

"Yeah, that's always fun," Komali said with a nod.

Link looked around.

"Where's Tetra?" he asked.

"We haven't seen her..." Saria frowned.

"Oh, and how hard have you looked?" a voice asked slyly. Spinning around, Link, Komali, and Saria saw none other than the infamous Bambi leaning against a tree, looking at them with a smirk.

Link drew his stick and pointed it at her.

"What did you do with Tetra?"

"What haven't I done with Tetra?"

Link was appalled, angered, and shocked.

"YOU SICK FUCK!" he screeched.

Despite the fact that he had no idea who the girl leaning against the tree was, Komali asked boldly (and eagerly), "Did you get it on tape?"

Bambi ignored Komali and said, "After that incident with the Poe Sisters, I'm sure Tetra wouldn't even want to look at you."

"You're keeping her hostage, aren't you?" Link snarled.

"Me! No, of course not! Do I strike you as the type of person to do such a horrible deed!" Bambi gasped innocently.

"Yes..." Saria mumbled. Gaylord growled at Bambi ferociously.

Bambi's eyes, permanently red after she had left the pirate ship for some reason, flashed menacingly for a brief moment.

"Well, to show you just how wonderful I am, I'll do this..." said she, pushing aside some nearby foliage to reveal the boss room.

"It's the boss room!" Saria gasped.

Bambi nodded. "Yep."

Saria, Komali, Gaylord, and Link went to inspect the door. Suddenly, it flew open, and Bambi shoved them all inside and shut the door behind them.

"Have fun with my giant people-eating monster!" she sneered.
