The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
Chapter VIII
Lord Jabu-Jabu
Link followed the Zora's river untill they came to a series of large waterfalls.
"Guess you'll have to hop over them," Navi said.
"Guess I will," Link said. He hopped over a few untill he reached a dead end, and a very large waterfall.
"What do we do now?" Link asked.
Navi flew close to the waterfall, "I can see an opening...Wonder how we'll get in."
"It worked at Goron City..." Link pulled out Saria's Ocarina and played Zelda's lullabye.
A large strip of wood slid out over the opening, spliting the waterfall in two,allowing Link to jump in. He did so. The strip moved back inside the opening and the waterfall begain to fall again. It seemed to work by magic.
"Cool!" Link said.
He walked through a small cavern untill he smelled water. Then he saw light, then he tripped.
Splash!
He fell about one-hundred feet into a large pool of water he persumed. Because of the Hylian Sheild's weight, he sank to the bottom, and fell unconsious.
He was standing in a dark place, in the middle of the night,andit was raining. Ganondorf was standing before him.
"You've done well to get here boy..." Ganondorf said gruffly, "You've defeated most of the monsters I summoned."
Link just stood there, he did not say a word. He felt...different, he was tense, and could not move. The only thing he could do was make a fist, though it felt different, like something was blocking him. Link then was propelled into the air by some unknown force,and flew right towards Ganondorf. He then heard a scream, weather it was his or Ganondorf's, most likely Ganondorf's because his voice wasn't that low. Everything went black.
"Get up! You're not dead, just get up!" An unfamilar voice said. It seemed like it echoed a bit, and sort of high-pitched.
"Guh..Ugh..." Link opened his eyes. He covered his eyes with his hands. He was cold. He was wet, and he felt sick.
His sensitivity to light soon stopped, and his eyes opened completly. He was shocked at first, but then noticed that he was in a small cave. He was frightened a bit when he saw who was infront of him.
He looked like a man...though his skin was light blue. He had a fish tail extending from his head and wore no clothing. He had fins on his elbows and legs. His eyes were large, and aquatic. He had flippers on his feet.
"Who...who are you?" Link said weakly.
"I'm a Zora," He said.
"Wh...what happened?" Link asked. His voice was croaky and his throat and nosehurt badly.
"You fell into the water and sank to the bottom, I found you though,"The Zorasaid. "Here, take this, it'll make you feel a little better." The Zora handed Link a bottle of a thick, blue liquid.
Link gulped it down. For a second he felt like he might faint, but soon all the pain went away. He stood up.
"I'm okay now, where are we?" Link said.
"Zora's Domain," The Zora replied. He led Link out of the hallway and into a large cavern. Link could see reflections of the water on the walls and ceiling.
"What brings you here anyway?" The Zora asked.
"I was sent by Princess Zelda to collect the Spiritual Stones, I need one more, someone said it was here," Link said.
"Oh, that stone. Ruto's allways looking at that..or was," The Zora said.
"Was? And who's Ruto?" Link said.
"Princess Ruto is King Zora's daughter. She's recently dissapeared though. King Zora's very worried about her."
"Oh...hey what's that?" Link ran over to the water and grabbed a bottle. "A note's in there!"
He pulled the cork off and read the note.
I'm in Jabu-Jabu's belly! Help me please!
-Ruto (PS Don't tell my father)
"This Ruto's inside...Jabu-Jabu?" Link said.
"Who's Jabu-Jabu?" Navi asked.
"Jabu-Jabu's our god, but why would Princess Ruto be in him?" The Zora asked.
"I have to tell her father!" Link said.
"But it says not to!" Navi said.
"He'll go crazy if we don't tell him, c'mon Navi!"
"Okay!" Navi gave up.
"Can you lead us to King Zora?" Link asked.
"Fine, follow me!" The Zora said.
He lead them through a series of stone stairs untill they reached a thone room, in the center was King Zora.
"King Zora, this boy knows the whearabouts of Princess Ruto," the Zora said.
King's Zora's head shot up. He didn't look like the other Zoras. He was much more heavy-set and wore a golden headress and red jacket.
"WHAT! WHERE IS SHE?" The Zora King comanded.
"Er..." Link begain. "This note says she's inside Jabu-Jabu-"
"What?Lord Jabu-Jabu? How? He has been acting strange lately...though why would she be there?" King Zora said. He then noticed Link had a sword and sheild. "You save her!"
Link twitched, "W...WHAT?"
"You go inside Lord Jabu-Jabu and save my daughter!" King Zora demanded.
"Fine! Where is Jabu-Jabu anyway?"
"Right behind this throne is Zora's Fountian, Lord Jabu-Jabu is there."
"Okay," Link said and went out.
He saw a large fish.
"THAT'S Jabu-Jabu?" Link said.
"Yup," Navi said.
"How do we get in?"
"I-"
GROWL
Jabu-Jabu groaned.
"Mabye...he's hungry?" Link said and grabbed a few fish from the pond next to him.
Link laied the fish on the ground infront of Jabu-Jabu. He opened his mouth and sucked Link and Navi in.
Link hit the ground. He looked around. He saw pink, pink, and someone running.
"Hey? Is that Ruto?" He ran after the figure.
