There was lava everywhere, slowly hitting the sides of the numerous platforms. Link gulped.
Navi had had enough of Link ignoring the fact she couldn't see through the hat.
"For Din's sake, Link, what is it?"
"Lava....lots and lots of it..and....there are...there are this lizard things." Link stuttered.
"Well, "lizard things" doesn't sound that bad, Link."
"No...you don't understand...there's a lot of lava..."
"Well, yeah, I know, you just told me, but exactly how much lava?"
"There are platforms...and the lizard things are coming nearer!"
Navi just couldn't possibly picture the scene Link was talking about.
"Link, take off your hat."
Link obeyed, gripped the hat by the top and pulled it off. Navi took a deep breath of fresh air before actually caring to look.
But when she did, she didn't like it.
Lava was spewing out from holes in the sides of the chamber, and the "lizard things" carried a sharp dagger and were hopping from platform to platform, getting closer to Link.
Navi swallowed hard. She turned to the way they had just come from to find cold, hard, metal bars blocking the way. All the way on the other side was an exit, also blocked with bars.
"There's only one way to do this, Link."
"Oooh, oooh, I know! I know! I have to beat those lizard things, right?"
Navi nodded, and shivered.
"Put back your hat, will you?"
"These things don't..."
"Breathe fire? Hopefully, no."
Link was in the process of unhooking his shield, but after he heard what Navi had said, he stopped and watched as the lizard thing came nearer.
Navi could see the lizard thing much clearer now, despite the material, because it was only one platform away. Suddenly, it made a movement Navi recognised-when it hopped, it's head automatically bent down.
"Llzalfos." Navi uttered softly.
Author's Note: Sorry that I'm barging in on the story here, just want to say that I think I spelt Llzalfos wrong. Oh well, back to the story.
Link heard Navi speak. "How do I beat them?"
"Use your shield-they don't breathe fire. Just lock them in combat and kill them with your sword. Try not to get hit."
The Llzalfo hopped over to the platform Link was standing on and immediately tried to cut Link with it's dagger.
Link raised his shield and watched as the dagger created a clean mark on the Kokiri symbol. Moments later, however, it vanished and just like the time with the Wolfos, was quickly replaced with fresh, new wood.
"Yeah, I'd say the Llzalfo engaged me into combat!"
Navi watched hopelessly. Link was on the defensive while the Llzalfo was on the offensive, and pretty soon Link would get tired.
Link started to look a little bit red and started to sweat.
Navi noticed this. "Link, stop! Try to get a hit in! You won't last long like this!"
Link made a stab and hit the Llzalfo in the stomach.
The Llzalfo was momentarily shocked, and Link, satisfied, pulled out his sword.
But the Llzalfo was only faking-it jumped to the next few platforms.
Link looked disappointed. "I was aiming for the Llzalfo's foot."
"No time for that! Go catch up with him!" Navi urged.
"But I don't wanna," Link protested. "There's lots and lots of lava, and I could fall in."
But as quick as a flash, the same Llzalfo jumped back to the platform from Link's back and snuck up quietly.
"I can get forever scarred by the lava!!!" Link whined.
"Oh, stop whining, you baby." Navi got an idea. "Look out! There's a Beamos right behind you and it saw you!"
Link immediately jumped to the next platform just as the Llzalfo brought it's dagger down.
"Whoa!" Navi gasped. "I didn't see that guy!"
"Hey, where's the Beamos?"
"Forget about that, there's a Llzalfo right there!"
Link waited at the platform patiently and the Llzalfo hopped over.
This time, Link, with Navi's encouraging and good advice, had the upper hand.
The Llzalfo quickly lunged at Link, it's dagger glistening in the light.
"Dodge stab!" Navi screamed. She didn't have any time to speak proper sentences.
Link sidestepped the Llzalfo's attack and slashed it on the back. The Llzafos got up and swayed slightly, dizzy.
"Advantage take kill!"
Link frowned.
"No time! Hit sword!"
Link processed the information. "Ok."
The Llzalfo collapsed to the ground. The dagger it was holding rolled out of it's claws into the lava, slowly heating up and melting.
"Wait one minute...wasn't there another one?"
"OWIIIIIEEEEE!!! Sacre bleu!!!!" Link screamed out.
"Hey, when did you learn to speak French?" Navi said suspicously.
"Whoopsies, I meant, OWWWIIIEEE!!!! THAT HURT!"
The remaining Llzalfo had snuck up behind Link and had cut him.
Fortunately, the only damage Link recieved was a very small scar, but his clothes had a huge rip in the back.
"Grrr...nobody touches da clothes...nobody..."
Link whipped around angrily and dropped his sword.
"Link, are you insane??? Pick up your sword!"
Link paid no attention to Navi and started a catfight between him and the Llzalfo.
The Kokiri's hands were a blur as they constantly moved up and down, and all Navi heard were the noises of someone getting slapped...hard.
Finally, after about ten minutes, Link stopped. He brushed his hands together and put his sword back in the scabbard.
As for the Llzalfo, it simply dropped to the floor.
Navi didn't say a thing. She had gotten used to Link's strange, miraculous outbursts. They went over to the exit which was now unblocked, it's metal bars gone.
