A/N: Here's Part 2.
The Eds and Link broke through the water's surface and were gasping for air while Navi floated above them all.
"Is everyone okay?" she asked as Eddy, Double D, and Link glared at Ed.
"We have broken through!" Ed yelled in goofy triumph.
"Ed! What were you thinking?!" Double D yelled.
"You could've killed us!" Link yelled as they got out of the water and dealt with the Deku Baba. "What have you got to say forself?"
"...Fish stick?" Ed said as he held up half a rotten fish on a stick.
"What goes on in that mind of his?" Navi whispered inside Double D's ear.
"Practically nothing, I'm afraid." Double D said.
"Hey! Two more of those golden bugs!" Eddy said as he pulled out his slingshot and loaded it with a seed. He shot at the one on the vines leading back up into the upper room until all that was left was a golden token, then shot at the one on the iron bars where the water was running out until it left a golden token. "I'm getting pretty good with this thing." he said as he began climbing up the vines for the first token. "Ed, get the other one!"
"Okay Eddy!" Ed said. While they were retrieving the tokens, Double D and Link had found a switch that revealed a torch hidden under some giant webs before they were burned away.
"Hmm? A tiny chest?" Double D said as Link popped it open and found some more seeds for Eddy's slingshot. "I'm beginning to see Eddy's point with all these chests." Double D said as Ed and Eddy returned with the tokens.
"Hey, whatcha find?" Eddy asked as he eyed the empty chest.
"Just some more ammo for you." Link said as he gave him the seed.
"That's it?" Eddy asked with a scowl.
"I didn't put it there, so don't be angry at me." Link said.
"Let's just get going." Eddy said.
"I'm afraid that we've hit a roadblock gentlemen. I don't see a path out of here except for those vines that lead up to the room we were just in." Double D said.
"Are you telling me that we're stuck?" Eddy asked.
"Unless we can find a door, I'm afraid so." Double D said.
"Hang on a sec." Link said. "Look at those webs over there. Can you see past them?" The Eds all looked for a moment before Double D's eyes widened.
"There's a door back there." he said.
"ONWARD TO-"
"Shut up!" Eddy yelled as he grabbed Ed's lips. "We heard you the first time Lumpy!" Eddy released his friend's lips before they all swam over and were now at the web.
"It is truly a shame that we have to destroy such amazing webs." Double D said as they began pulling on the web.
"Yeah, except for the part where it won't budge!" Eddy said after they failed to remove the webbing.
"Listen!" Navi said. "The flame from that torch over there burned through the webs that surrounded it in seconds."
"Brilliant! We burn it away!" Double D said.
"So we get another one of these sticks on fire and then light these stupid webs?" Eddy said.
"Precisely." Double D said.
"I got it!" Ed yelled as he went back to the torch and pulled out a Deku stick and lit it. He then ran back, fell into the water, got out and stuck the wet Deku stick to the web. "Where'd the fire go?"
"Please tell me one of you has a better idea." Link said while looking at Eddy and Double D.
"We need to get the lit Deku stick across without it being submerged in the water." Double D said. "Hmm. I think I have an idea."
-A moment later-
"This was your big idea?" Eddy yelled as Ed held him up by his shirt and pants next to the torch, a Deku stick in his hands.
"It's simple." Double D said from near the web. "When you lit the Deku stick, Ed will throw you over to our side for you to light the webs."
"This better work!" Eddy yelled before turning to Ed. "Remember Lummox, I light the stick, then you throw me over there."
"Gotcha Eddy." Ed said.
"I have a bad feeling about this." Link said while Navi hid in his hat.
"Okay. Here goes." Eddy said as he lit the stick. Ed immediately took a running start and threw Eddy over to the other side. Too bad his body turned in mid-air, causing him to fall to the ground head first. The lit Deku stick was released from his grip, where it rolled until it hit the web, burning it to reveal the door.
"It worked!" Double D said as Eddy got up and shook his head.
"Oh, my aching-" Eddy said before Ed rammed into him, taking him with him while he ran into the door, followed by Link and Double D. They encountered another Deku Scrub, where they flawlessly defeated it.
"Ouch! Hey, you meanies!" it said.
"BEGONE, VILE BUSH!" Ed cried out as he began swatting at it with a Deku stick.
"AH! HELP! HE'S CRAZY! MAKE HIM STOP!" cried the Deku Scrub.
"Take five Ed." Eddy said, making Ed stop in his tracks.
"Gotcha Eddy." Ed said while Eddy approached it.
"Here's the deal. You tell us something good, we let you leave with all your leaves still on." Eddy said.
"Okay, okay!" it cried. "Up ahead, you'll find my brothers. They're tough, but you can beat them if you hit them in the right order. The order is 2, 3, 1."
"How exactly is that any different from just defeating them regularly?" Double D asked.
"Beats me. I don't have all the answers. Bye!" it said before running off, but stopped and turned around. "Also, you have to shut the eye to proceed. Later."
"Shut what eye?" Link asked as the Deku Scrub disappeared.
"I believe that he was referring to the eye that's right above the locked door." Double D said. They all looked to see an eye gazing at them above a door sealed with iron bars.
"Too easy." Eddy said as he loaded his slingshot and shot a seed at it's eye, making it close on impact. The bars flew up while Eddy blew at his slingshot like a old Western gun. "Piece of cake."
"Let's go." Link said before they all walked through the door.
"Oh dear." Double D said as he examined the room. A platform was moving back and forth on the surface of the small moat from one side to the other, with a giant spiked log barely scratching the surface of said platform. "This may be difficult."
"None of us can jump that!" Eddy said.
"There's gotta be a way." Link said. "Let's look around for a switch or something." The four of them began examining the wall, but found nothing that could help them cross the water to the other side.
"There's a switch in the water right below me." Navi said. Everyone turned to see Navi hovering above the water near the wall under the spiked log. "See?"
"She's right." Link said before removing his equipment and handing it the Eds. "Hold these." he said before jumping into the water. He swam over above it before diving down and pressing it. The water level fell a few feet until it stopped, with the sound of a timer beginning to sound off.
"We haven't much time! Link, swim to the platform! We'll pull you up!" Double D shouted before he and his friends jumped to the platform when it made it's way towards them. Eddy and Double D held onto Link's equipment while Ed pulled Link onboard when he swam by before the four of them jumped onto the other side.
"Thanks for the help Ed." Link said as Eddy and Double D returned his things.
"You're welcome, Link!" Ed said before hugging the stuffing out of him.
"Oop! Okay! Let go now!" Link said. Ed put him down while still having a huge grin on his face before he and Link joined the other two Eds.
"Another Skulltula." Double D said as he examined the spider from a safe distance.
"Ed. Take care of it." Eddy ordered.
"Gotcha Eddy." Ed said before picking up the block nearby and smashing the Skulltula with ease. "I AM ED, SMASHER OF SPIDERS!"
"Your friend is starting to scare me." Link said.
"Just be glad he's on our side." Eddy said as they climbed up the block to reach the door to the next area. Inside was a lit torch, two unlit torches, a few Deku Babas, and a iron barred door.
"Looks like we have to light more torches." Link said as he unsheathed his blade while Ed pulled out a Deku Stick.
"AWAY WITH YOU! WE ARE NOT YOUR LUNCH!" Ed yelled before he and Link began to deal with the Deku Babas. While they were doing that, Double D was looking at the map to see where they were before his eyes widened.
"What on Earth?" he said.
"What?" Eddy asked before looking at the map. "What are those little arrows?" he asked. There were five arrows on the map. One red, one light green, one dark green, one yellow, and one white.
"Something wrong?" Link asked.
"The map's got moving arrows on it." Eddy said.
"What? Let me see." Link said as they all looked at the map. "You're right."
"Can I see?" Ed said as he took the map and began fumbling with it.
"Ed! Be careful!" Double D said before Eddy snatched the map away.
"You wanna do something? Go light the torches!" Eddy said while handing him a Deku stick.
"Roger Walnut, Eddy!" Ed said with a salute before running off.
"You do realize that you just sent Ed to light the torches, right?" Double D said. The three of them looked at Ed while he lit the Deku Stick and stared at the flame laughing like a dope.
"Hold on there, Burrhead!" Eddy yelled as he ran towards him.
"Now this is interesting." Double D said as he watched the yellow and dark green arrows move around on the map. "It may be possible that these arrows represent us on the map."
"These weren't here before. Why did they appear now?" Link asked.
"It's the compass you found." Navi said. "It tells you where you and any hidden items are on the map."
"Fascinating." Double D said.
"They're lit!" Eddy shouted. "Let's go."
"Right behind you." Link said as he and Double D walked out of the room with them. They found themselves inside another room with two webbed doorways, a few Deku Babas, and a Skulltula hanging above the entrance before them. They quickly took care of it before walking into the center and looking around.
"Burn the webs like before?" Eddy asked.
"That seems to be the best option here." Double D said. They all nodded and were about to take action before what looked like a brown sack fell near them.
"What is this thing?" Eddy asked as they all stared at it.
"It has friends." Ed said while looking at the ceiling. The others looked up to see two similar sacks hanging on the ceiling before they dropped down next to the first one. They all stared at them in confusion before they began to twitch violently.
"W-what's going on?" Eddy asked as they backed away.
"It may be possible that those are *gulp* eggs!" Double D said.
"What kind of eggs?" Link asked before the soft brown sacks began to split, revealing giant, one-eyed, two-legged bug creatures.
"Aww. Babies bug creatures!" Ed said.
"Watch out! Those are Gohma Larvas!" Navi warned. "They're young, but they're strong!"
"Um, guys. They're looking at us." Link said. The three Larvas stared at them with big blue eyes before they turned blood red while they crouched down. "Get ready!" Link yelled before they pounced.
"Careful of the Deku Babas too!" Navi yelled as some of them sprouted from the ground.
"Just perfect!" Eddy yelled as he pulled out his slingshot and loaded it.
"We can beat these things!" Link said. "Eddy and Double D, handle the Deku Babas! Ed! You and I will handle these Gohma Larvas!"
"Right!" Ed yelled as he pulled out a Deku stick.
"Whatever." Eddy said as he readied his slingshot.
"Um, okay!" Double D said as he took out a Deku stick. "Oh dear." The Eds and Link began to square off against the creatures. Eddy kept his distance while firing at a Deku Baba, hitting it a few times before it finally withered into a Deku Nut. Link was switching between defense and offense as one of the Larva's kept pouncing at it before thrusting his blade into it's eye, killing it instantly. Ed was lost in his own world acting like a wrestler while fighting the other two Larvas, roaring and jumping around until all that remained were squished parts everywhere. Double D was having a hard time dealing with his Deku Baba as his knees kept shaking through the whole fight. His lack of strength made it hard for him to do any damage when he managed to swat it's head away from him.
"Please, just stay down!" Double D yelled after it rose from it's third time being hit. It was ready to lunge again before a seed shot right through it's head, finishing it off.
"You can thank me later." Eddy said as he put his slingshot away before they all joined up.
"Deku Babas usually only take two hits." Navi said. She had been watching them all fight until they all had won. "How come it was still alive after you hit it three times?"
"I told you. All brain, no brawn." Eddy said.
"No one can be that weak." Link said before Eddy whispered into his and Navi's ears. "I stand corrected."
"You lost...in a fight...to a piece of wood?" Navi asked. "That is just pitiful." Double D turned red in embarrassment as he pulled his hat over his face.
"Let's just go." he said through his hat. They nodded before they burned the webbing from both paths away. One leading to a wall that looked a little crumbly, the other to a small hole.
"I don't know how we'll get through the wall." Link said. "The only way now is through this tiny hole." Double D and Eddy looked at each other, silently wondering if they should just have Ed knock the wall down with his brute strength. "I'll check it out first." Link said before crawling through.
"You know, this all feels very strange." Double D said. "The layout, the traps, the methods we've used to get this far. It all feels like a...like a-"
"Like some kind of weird game?" Eddy said.
"OH! OH! Or maybe it could be an amazing story written by the coolest writer ever!" Ed said. Double and Eddy looked at Ed, then at each other.
"Naaah!" they said just as Link came crawling back.
"Well, the bad news is that only Eddy and I can get through." Link said.
"What's the good news?" Double D asked.
"This leads us back to the room we first fell down into after going through that spider web." Link said.
"You mean we went around in a big circle?!" Eddy yelled.
"To a spot we couldn't reach before." Link said. "Ed and Double D will have to go back the way we came. Eddy, come with me. I see a way for them to join us." Eddy was grumbling the whole way through the hole while Double D and Ed went back the way they came. Link followed him to the upper part of the room, where a few Deku Babas were. Link and Eddy quickly defeated them before Link showed Eddy the giant block on the ground. "All we gotta do is push this over the edge and they'll be able to join us up here." Link said.
"I'm really starting to hate this whole thing." Eddy said before he and Link began to push the block until it went over the edge. "So what now?"
"When Ed and Double D get here, I'll burn that spider web covering the hole to the lower level." Link said.
"Honey, I'm home!" Ed shouted as he and Double D ran inside.
"Up here!" Link shouted from just above the block. Ed and Double D used the block to join them up on the upper level, where he showed them the spider web. With Ed lifting him up, Link lit a Deku stick before setting the web ablaze, allowing them to get to the lower level.
"It's all water down there." Link said as he blew out the flame and put the stick away.
"In that case...CANNONBALL!" Eddy shouted as he jumped down into the water with a loud splash.
"Look out below!" Double D shouted as he jumped next.
"YAHOO!" Ed shouted as he jumped down after them.
"I think those three are having too much fun." Navi said.
"Still, that does look fun." Link said with a Link. "Heads up!" Link shouted as he jumped down after them. Navi only chuckled before floating down to them to see them all swim towards dry land.
"Deku Scrubs!" Eddy said as three Scrubs came out of the ground.
"These must be the ones we have to defeat in a certain order." Double D said.
"2, 3, 1." Link said as he raised his shield. "I'll handle this." he said before he carefully bounced the seeds back in the right order.
"How'd you know the secret code?!" yelled the last one.
"Does it matter? Link here got it right, so open the door." Eddy said.
"Fine." said the Scrub before he unlocked the door. "Not like you'll be Queen Gohma anyway."
"Is there a way to beat her?" Double D asked.
"Why should I tell you?" asked the Scrub.
"Because you'll live longer." Eddy said.
"...Fair point." said the scrub. "You gotta stun her first. Forgive me, Queen Gohma!" said the Scrub before he and his brothers disappeared.
"It looks like we've reached the end." Link said.
"The source of the curse is beyond that door." Double D said.
"The Boss Level!" Ed said.
"Any final words?" Eddy said.
"Don't worry." Navi said. "You all managed to get through everything else that lead up to this point. I know you guys can do it!" They all looked at her before turning back to the door. Their resolve hardened, they entered into the room.
"It's dark." Eddy said.
"And really quiet." Link said.
"Let's be careful." Double D said.
"Come out, come out, where ever you are." Ed said as they walked into a big, dark chamber before a massive door slammed down behind them, trapping them inside.
"No turning back now." Navi said.
"Shh! You hear that?" Link asked. They all remained still until they heard the sound of something crawling around in the room. It was getting louder, but they didn't see anything as they looked in all directions.
"Double D." Eddy whispered, a hint of fear in his voice. "You're good with spiders, right?"
"I take care of them in the basement of my house. Why?" he asked.
"Think you can take care of the one above us?" They all turned their attention to the ceiling to see a giant eye looking straight at them before falling down in front of them.
"It's the Parasitic Armored Arachnid!" Navi yelled as the spider creature hissed while glaring at them. "GOHMA!"
"NOT COOL! NOT COOL!" the Eds shouted before everyone scattered.
"What do we do?!" Double D shouted.
"Aim for it's eye!" Navi yelled.
"Easier said than done!" Eddy yelled.
"RUN AWAY!" Ed yelled as Gohma chased after him.
"Ed! This way!" Link yelled as he pulled out a Deku Nut. Ed ran towards him, with Gohma crawling right behind him. The moment it got close enough, Link through the nut right at it's eye, stunning the creature. He then began to slash Gohma's eye before she slammed it shut and backed away. It crawled away before crawling up the wall and unto the ceiling, where it began to spit out more brown eggs at them, where they quickly hatched.
"Mini Gohmas!" Ed yelled before pulling out a Deku stick. "PREPARE TO BE SQUASHED!" he yelled before he began fighting. He and Link began to fight them and quickly beat them, only for Gohma to spit out more.
"There's no end to them!" Eddy shouted.
"Eddy! The slingshot!" Double D shouted. "Use your slingshot!"
"Huh? Oh, right." he said as he loaded his slingshot. "HEY UGLY!" he shouted. Gohma turned to see Eddy aiming right at her. "DON'T BLINK!" he yelled before nailing her in the eye with a seed, stunning her and causing her to fall on the fresh Larvas. Link began to slash at her again before she crawled away again. She tried to crawl away again, only to be stopped by Ed.
"YOU WILL NOT RUN AWAY, SCOURGE OF THE DEKU TREE!" Ed shouted as he used his crazy strength and pulled her off the wall before flipping her upside down. She hissed as she tried to right herself, only stopping to see a flash of green approach her.
"HIYAA!" Link yelled as he jumped and slashed down, stabbing straight through her eye. Gohma began to thrash and roar in pain before everything ceased. Her body fell in a heap before burning away. Link, Ed, Edd, and Eddy all stared while breathing hard before they began chuckling. "We did it."
"We beat that giant spider thing!" Eddy shouted.
"YAHOOOO! WE BEAT THE MONSTER!" Ed yelled.
"That...was scary." Double D said, though he couldn't stop the smile to his face.
"Great work everyone!" Navi said as she happily flew around the boys. "I knew you guys could do it!" The boys all smiled before they were enveloped in a soft light.
"What's going on?" Eddy said before they were all blinded by the light. The light faded after awhile and they looked around to see that they were back outside and standing before the Great Deku Tree.
"Well done, Link. And you too, Eds." said the Deku Tree. "Thy hast verily demonstrated thy courage. I knew that thou wouldst be able to carry out my wishes."
"It wasn't that tough." Eddy said while rubbing his fist against his chest while Double D shook his head.
"THAT WAS SO COOL!" Ed shouted.
"Now, I have more to tell thee. Wouldst thou listen?" asked the Deku Tree.
"Yes." Link answered.
"Good." said the Deku Tree. Link and the Eds listened as the Great Deku Tree spoke of a wicked man uses his vile sorcerous powers to try and enter the Sacred Realm that was connected to Hyrule, which is where one would find the sacred relic, the Triforce, which is said to contain the essence of the gods. He then spoke how long ago, before the world came into existence, three golden goddesses descended upon the chaotic world of Hyrule when it was beginning to form. Din, the goddess of Power, crafted the red Earth with her strong flaming arms. Nayru, the Goddess of Wisdom, poured her wisdom onto the Earth, giving the power of law. Farore, the Goddess of Courage, with her rich soul produced all life that would uphold that law. When they left for the Heavens, three golden triangles were left at the very place where they left the world, which was now known as the Sacred Realm.
"What an amazing story." Double D said when the Deku Tree was finished telling the tale, with Link nodding as they all stood up.
'So, somewhere out there are three golden triangles.' Eddy thought with a grin while Ed stared at the Deku Tree with big eyes.
"Thou must never allow the man in black armor to lay his hands on the Triforce...Thou must never suffer that man, with his evil heart, to enter the Sacred Realm of legend...That evil man who cast the death curse upon me and sapped my power."
"Death curse?!" Double D said.
"Don't worry. We beat it." Eddy said.
"It is true that thou hast destroyed the creature that was the source of the curse. Sadly, my end was nigh before thou even started." said the Deku Tree.
"Then...you're still gonna..." Link said while they all stared in shock.
"Yes. I shall pass away soon." The Eds, Link, and Navi all gasped in shock and horror at the news. "But do not grieve for me. I have been able to tell you of these important matters. This is Hyrule's final hope. Link. Ed. Edd. And Eddy. Go now to Hyrule Castle. Their, thou shall surely meet the Princess of Destiny. Take this stone with you. The stone that wicked man wanted so much, that he cast the curse upon me." The four of them jumped when a mass tree roots suddenly sprouted before them. They watched as the roots slowly moved away, revealing a beautiful green jewel with a golden design encasing around it, the Kokiri Emerald. The four were mesmerized by it as Link gently plucked it from the roots surrounding it.
"The future depends upon thee, Link, Ed, Edd, and Eddy." said the Deku Tree. "Thou art courageous. Navi the fairy...Help the four of them carry out my will...I...en..treat...thee...Navi...Good...bye..." The five of them watched as a horrible creaking sound came from the Deku Tree while some of his leaves fell from his branches and his entire being changed from a rich brown to a dull grey color. The Great Deku Tree...was gone. They were all silent as they stared at the dead Deku Tree before Navi spoke.
"Let's go to Hyrule Castle. Link. Eds." she said before casting a final glance at the Great Deku Tree. "Good-Bye...Great Deku Tree." she said before they all began to slowly walk back, none of them saying a word while they silently cried, or sobbed uncontrollably in Ed's case.
