~~Chapter Two~~

~Trapped in Termina?~

Last Time...
Standing in front of a silver door with green moss around it, Link was ready as he walked towards the door leading Epona saying, "Okay time to go home!".

The following thunk heard was but a small noise compared to the profanity uttered when the door didn't open.

The door stayed shut...

And Now...

As the great door remained firmly sealed shut, Link was thouroughly befuddled. What the... the door didn't open... Just to be sure he wasn't imagining it, the young lad led Epona and himself back several paces and then approached the door once again. Yet still the door remained shut, not even so much as a shift. This can't be happening... why won't the door open? Maybe if I approach it differently. Putting his thoughts into action, Link decided to use his puzzle solving skills (finely tuned from numerous dungeons) to the task.

Had a casual observer happened by just then, they would have been treated to several confusing, yet at the same time amusing sights. Link tried to approach the door in a variety of ways. He tried by himself, just Epona, walking backwards, riding Epona, and he even went so far as to place all of the items he acquired in Termina on the ground before walking to the door. All of the attempts gave only the results of a frustrated and hungry hero.

"All of this madness is making me hungry, you hungry girl?", Link asked Epona. With an answering whinny she came over to Link's side and affectionately pushed against him. Laughing, Link pushed back, then dug into his sack saying, "I'll take that for a yes." Now I wish I had taken that ice-cream treat, but no, I figured I would be back in the forest by now. "Here ya go, a carrot for you, and some ranch milk for me." Sitting down to rest for a moment, Link talked out loud as he considered the problem at hand.

"Isn't this just the great ending to my time here. I risk life and limb, traveling through time and terrain, defeat an evil mask bent on global obliteration, and save 'all' of Termina... and yet I can't even open the damn door to leave and go home! I just don't understand what's going on here. Sure, the door was sealed ever since I entered, but I just assumed that taking down Majora would open it back up, no such luck there. I'm at my wits end here, that's it... I am gonna use all items on that door, and if that doesn't work then I don't know what I'll do." Probably scream

Putting away the half-finished bottle of milk and standing up to walk over to the door, after re-shouldering his backsack, Link said, "Here goes nothing." I'll start with my swords. Pulling the gilded sword out of its sheath from on his back, he admired it for a moment. It really is a fine blade, sharp and nigh-invulnerable. I hope Mido and the other kokiri don't expect to get their kokiri sword back, ever, I quite enjoy its new form. The thought of keeping and changing the 'legendary' treasure of the kokiri for his own, despite Mido's protests, brought out a brief smirk of satisfication.

Then Link walked up to the door and proceeded to try every sword move he could think of. He sliced sideways, upways, downwards, straight jabs, even a few jumping strikes. All that hacking and slashing, though, yeilded no results. He even at one point attempted to insert the sword like a key into the slot, yet nothing worked. Resheathing his sword, Link took out the two-handed great fairy sword and tried everything again, but like before it didn't do anything.

"Okay, so no sword strike can scratch it." What the heck is that door made of? Maybe some magic arrows will work.. Taking out the hero bow and an arrow, Link stepped back ten paces to not be too close. He infused the arrow with magical flames, pulled back on the string untill it was as taught as possible, then let it fly. Regretably, aside from creating a fireball on contact, there was no effect whatsoever. Not letting this faze him, much, the frustrated 'Hero of Time' proceeded to let loose with several ice and light arrows in quick succession... no effect.

By this time Link was getting uneasy and was beggining to fear that nothing would work. Maybe some bombs will do the trick. The youth placed down three bombs and then backed off as he waited for their short fuses to end. Not having very long to wait at all, Link watched anxiously as they blew up, hoping that it worked. Once again, however, when the smoke cleared there was revealed to be a completely undamaged door. Getting angry now, Link pulled out the Goron mask and roughly smashed it on his face, thus triggering the magical transformation.

Once again, he was treated to the totally unique sensation of becoming a completely different race then he was born into. Bones and body reshaping, internal organs rearranging, and an intense merging of souls takes place all within the span of a few seconds. The feeling is still so intense, even after many many times experiencing it, that he can not prevent a yell from being forced out. I'll never get used to feeling that, but at least I'm starting to restrain how loud I yell.

Where once stood a young hylian of the apparent age of around eleveen, now stands a tall, sturdy, strong and mature looking Goron. Darunia-Link once more came into existence. The hylian-goron hybrid walked up to the door and started punching and pounding into it with enough force to pulverize most creatures and shatter rocks. After giving the door a continous assault for several minutes, filled with 1-2-3 combo's, he stopped to catch a breath. Unbelievably, the door still had no indication on it that it was being slammed into.

Now, Darunia-Link really started to loose his patience, and with an angry yell he rolled into a ball and let out his magic spikes to ram the offending gateway, "Grraaagh!" It was like trying to batter down an invulnerable wall, which it what he was beginning to think it was. As a last ditch effort he tried using a powder keg, a bomb so big and strong that only an adult goron could lift it, and it can blow up huge boulders with ease. Abruptly Darunia-Link set the powder keg down, and then got as far back out of the blast radius as possible with Epona.

Allowing his face to take on the properties of a mask once more, he pulled it off and became Link once again as his birth form. Not having the patience anymore, for the fuse to naturally go off on the keg, he shot it with an arrow. The keg exploded with a tremendous boom and the following tremor knocked Link onto his rear, while Epona just took a few steps back. Whoah, that one seemed stronger then usual. Link thought that surely, that would have worked, but much to his astonishment the door was impecably untarnished.

The savior of Termina and Hero of Time, and all around powerful warrrior, had only one thing to say for his situation.

"Well, shit this sucks! Now, what?"

Kevone- Thank you for your patronage. I'm not sure If I can get many chapters the same length as the last one. Somehow I tend to average around 1500 words for a chapter. So, the summary could be better? I agree... Any ideas as to a better summary for me to use? Plz? :O

Legofan- Well, the updates not exactly 'very' soon... But it's faster then some. Plz read and enjoy---> and then review!

Omake Attempt #1

Jamming the GF sword into the edge of the door, Link tried to pry open the door by applying his full strength to the hilt. After straining for a moment, the sword snapped in half.

Out of the sword came a swirling mist, and it revealed to be an aged elder GF, whom when seeing Link spoke, "You saved me from that prison. Now I shall reward you by doing a mystic dance around you that will take 24 hours and embarrass the hell out of you, and it will release your hidden potential!

"Hell no! This isn't DragonBall Z!"

Omake Attempt #2

After trying everything he could think of, Link gave up as he leaned against the door. Suddenly Navi flew by and said, "HEY, Link. LOOK, have you tried the knob? LISTEN, your a real idiot, you know that?"

"Navi, where the hell you come from? Of, course I tried the knob. Do you honestly think I would waste all this time without seeing if it was unlocked? He goes over and turns knob then pushes, "There you see, the door is lo-...," the door swung open. Link smacked himself in the head real hard, and Navi flew away mumbling about plot holes and dumbass heroes.
