Disclaimer: We don't own Zelda. This is getting really tired to say.

Firesage: it's another chapter.

Crowd: Yay…. (Really bored)

Firesage: Oh come on people. They are on Death Mountain right now. Anyways, just to tell you I am writing most of this chapter. Ravengrl is on Vacation. (Ravengrl sunbathing)

"Link, wait up!" shouted Stefan. Stefan is still carrying Blake around.

Link slowed down a little but Stefan still had to run to keep up.

"Who the heck was he," asked Stefan, "He made it seem like you know him."

"I really haven't the faintest idea," replied Link looking thoughtful.

All three of them were heading up Death Mountain. They were making slow progress because at this time Blake is unconscious.

"Why is it called Death Mountain?" whispered Stefan under his breath.

Link, who didn't hear the remark, went up the Stefan. "For right now I will carry Blake," said Link who was reaching down for Blake. "We need to hurry as fast as we can and get to the Goron Village."

Stefan, who was glad the weight was gone, asked Link, "Why do we need to hurry?"

Link answered, "If we hurry you won't find out." He kicked Epona in to gear and started to run up the mountain.

"Wait Link, slow down," shouted Stefan after him. "I can't run that fast!"

Stefan started running after the horse when he started to feel a rumble through out the mountain.

"What the heck was that?" Stefan looked around and did not find anything that was out of the ordinary. The rumbling was getting louder. 'Where is it coming from' Stefan thought.

Meanwhile

"Unnnn," mumbled Blake. "Why does my head hurt so much?"

"Good you're finally awake," said Link who dumped Blake on the ground.

"Owww, what was that for," complained Blake. He got up and glared at Link.

"I was gracious enough to allow you to ride on Epona when you were out cold," replied Link.

Blake took a look at his surroundings. "Where the heck are we, and where is Stefan." Blake looks up and down the path that they were traveling.

Link moving up the path replied, "We are Death Mountain and Stefan is back there some where." He vaguely pointed behind him.

"I am going to wait for him," said Blake loyally.

Just then they heard a girlish scream.

Back to Stefan

Stefan looked up when he couldn't find anything wrong on the ground. He just kept noticing a shadow getting bigger and bigger on the ground right underneath him.

"Holy Crap!" shouted Stefan who just jumped out to the way when a boulder was crashing down, right where he was standing. "Why didn't Link tell me about falling Boulders!"

He got up and looked at the boulder which was crack in to pieces. He breathed a sigh of relief when he noticed something moving by the boulder. Being curious at the time, Stefan went to go check to out.

"Ahhhhhhhhhh!" screamed Stefan. It came out really girlish. A whole bunch of Jumping type Spiders were about to attack him.

"Run for your life!" He started running up the path with a huge army of Spider things. (AN: don't know what they're called but they are the red and blue spiders that always jump around.)

Back to Blake and Link.

"Sounded like Stefan," announced Blake.

"He has a girlish scream?" asked Link. At Blake's nod he said, "Stefan pathetic." Link, now knowing that it is actually not a girl, starts back up the path to the Goron City.

Blake looking puzzled said, "Shouldn't we go help him. I mean he usually doesn't scream like that unless he is extremely scared." Unfortunately since Link is on Epona and way far ahead of him now, Blake was just talking to air.

"He always leaves us poor people in the dust," sighed Blake. Just then the ground started rumbling. "What the heck?"

Back to Stefan

"This is not happening!" shouted it Stefan. "It's like my nightmare coming to life!" (AN: if you haven't figured it out Stefan is hugely afraid of Spiders of any type.)

Stefan was running up the hill with a huge cloud of dust and Spiders. He looks up to see a familiar looking figure up ahead of him. "Run for the hills!"

Back to Blake

Blake looks up to see a huge cloud of dust. In front of the dust cloud is his partner in crime. "Stefan what's wrong?"

At this time Blake came see that Stefan is moving extremely fast, and started to sweat.

"What!" shouted Blake. He heard Stefan shouted something but could not under stand him. The rumbling started to get loader and loader the closer the dirt cloud came.

"Run for the hills!" Blake heard that one. He stared to look closer at the cloud.

"What the frick!" he shouted. Stefan, who is now almost right onto a paralyzed Blake, grabs for his arm and starts pulling him along. "Come on Blake run!"

Blake now snapped out of the void and started running to keep up with Stefan. Man can Stefan run when he's motivated thought Blake.

Soon after running forever, Blake looked behind him. The Spiders were gone, as was the cloud of dust. The rumbling of the ground had stopped awhile ago.

"Stefan we can stop. They're gone." But sadly Stefan was no where to be seen. "I got ditched again," said a disappointed Blake. He started walking calmly, getting his breath back.

All of a sudden a boulder landed just two feet in front of him. He looked up and saw tons of boulders falling down the cliff.

"This is just not my day," said a very tired Blake. He sighed and tried to make it through the boulders.

Back to Stefan

Stefan being frightened as he was just kept running as fast as he could. Just ahead he could see another figure on a horse. He zipped by the person screaming his head off.

"Was that Stefan," asked Link to himself. He shook his head, "It couldn't be." Link calmly kept riding ahead.

Meanwhile Blake was still dodging boulders. "Now I know why this is called Death Mountain. Know matter where you step you can get killed!"

Soon Blake got out of the falling boulders. "Finally!" he said. Then he noticed something wrong with his foot. He looked down and saw that his left shoe was missing! "AHHHH," he growled angrily. That was one of his best traveling shoes. "How did I lose it!"

Flashback

"Ahhhh," Blake yelled as he fell down barely getting hit by a boulder. He tried to get up but felt some resistance but soon he was free. Looking back to see what had kept him down he noticed another boulder about to fall on him. He jumped out of the way and kept dodging all of the boulders. His shoe was left on the ground.

End of Flashback

"That is why I couldn't get back up," he pondered. "I guess I will have to steal another pair." He started making his way up the trail again.

Stefan

Stefan was rounding a corner and saw some rocks with different patterns on then. 'What is with these weird rocks?' thought Stefan. By now Stefan was slowing down to a walk. His curiosity got the better of him again. (It is going to be his death someday, I just know it) He went up to one of the rocks and just before he was about to poke it, the rock started to move.

"Holy smokes!" shouted Stefan. He back up about ten paces, while the "rock" got up. "What the heck are you!" Stefan is now breathing really heavily.

"Hey how did you get here before me?" said a voice behind him.

Stefan turned around to see Link on Epona, riding calmly to him. "I ran past you, I think," answered Stefan.

"You were the runner that ran past me?" Link said in wonderment, "I didn't know you could run that fast."

"When I am motivated, I can," responded Stefan.

"Oh sorry, that was rude of me to ignore you," said Link to the "rock".

"Link, what the heck is that thing," said Stefan in a wary voice. Looking at the rock like it was going to attack him.

"Stefan, don't be rude," Link said, "it is a Goron we reached Goron city."

"Hey you guys! Wait up," shouted a voice. All three turned around to see a rumpled Blake walking up to meet them. "So this is Goron City."

"Finally," said an exasperated Stefan, "I am so hungry."

Link just smiled as the Goron showed them into the city.

"Link, thank you so much for showing up." The Goron said as he slowly walked down some stairs.

"It's nothing really, besides I heard that you guys had problems with the temple again." Link said as the two turned another corner.

Blake and Stefan were still in awe of where they were. They didn't notice Link walking off with the Goron until…

"Stefan." Stefan turned to Blake with his jaw hanging. Blake closed his friend's mouth and glared at him. "Where is Link?"

"Uh, wasn't he right over…there?" Stefan walked over to the stairs and looked down to see nothing but shadow. "Ah crud, he ditched us again! This time it was for a rock that talks!"

Blake quickly put his hand over Stefan's mouth and gave him the shut up sign as a few Gorons stared in their direction.

"Don't mind us, we're tourists." Blake said as he dragged Stefan down the stairs. "You bumbling idiot, don't open your mouth without thinking! Now come on, we have to find Link." Blake glared at Stefan and then continued to walk down the stairs.

"It's not my fault they look like rocks." Stefan mumbled to himself as he followed Blake down the stairs.

As the two friends walked down the stairs, it got darker and darker.

"Hey Blake, make sure you don't trip ok." Stefan said as he tried to see in front of him.

"I'm not that clumsy! I'll have you know that…" Blake's voice was cut off as he tripped on his own feet tumbling down the stairs. Stefan felt Blake grab for his arm and thought 'Oh crud' as he was yanked down. The two thieves miraculously landed on the next floor down without gaining any injuries. Stefan jumped up and inspected his head for any new bumps.

"I don't care what anyone says, that was an accomplishment!" Stefan exclaimed.

"What in Hyrule are you blabbing about?" Blake asked as he slowly stood.

"I didn't (You had don't) hit my head on the way down!" Stefan jumped for joy while Blake just shook his head.

"Stop clowning around, we have to find Link. Also I wonder if they have any shoes around here." Blake asked himself as he walked off.

"Hey wait up! Blake, could we get some food? I'm starved." Stefan asked as he followed.

In the shadows of the staircase

"Hey boss, when are we gonna take them down?"

"When the time is right. Now stop yapping and follow those two." The leader spoke.

"Yes sir." Two figures bowed to their leader and then vanished within the shadows.

"Finally, I will have my revenge." The leader spoke and smirked as he watched Blake and Stefan walked away without a care in the world.

Ravengrl: Bum…Bum…Bum! (I like saying that)

Stefan: Hurray, we have a bad guy!

Firesage: I guess he's over his chicken phobia…for now.

Stefan: I'll give them a HA and a HIYAH! (WHAM!) Oops, sorry Blake.

(Blake begins to shout at Stefan and chases him around the room)

Firesage: Hey you guys! Calm down! Stop it you idiots!

(Firesage joins in the chase. Ravengrl smacks her head)

Ravengrl: Oh well, I am back from vacation and got a lovely tan. (Shows off her tan) Anyways, I hope you enjoyed and please R&R.
