3: Cave of Monsters
Link reached into his bag and tossed the Bow of Light to Zelda. "Here, use this!" he said.
Zelda caught the Bow and aimed it out of one of the train's windows.
Link used his whip to destroy a spider, but in the process, he fell off the train. "Eek!" he screamed as he continued his descent to the ground. Lyra leaned out and grabbed him, but a spider was about to jump on them. Lyra made a quick decision and pulled Link onto the cannon platform while holding the cannon and pressing the trigger just as the spider leaped toward them. Link landed on the floor with a thump! as the cannonball zoomed toward the cave spider. One millisecond later, the spider fainted.
The next two spiders approached more cautiously. Zelda pulled the Bow string back a little more for more force and released an arrow. The high-speed light arrow flew in an almost perfect arc and found its mark on the spider's eye. The spider fell off the cave wall and disappeared into darkness.
The last spider charged towards Gold and leaped off the cave roof to attack him. Gold tightened his grip on his pool stick and jumped up to thrust his cue into the monster. The spider cracked Gold's pool cue and landed on the train car. Gold released his grip on the useless weapon, but suddenly saw a sword flying toward him. He jumped up and grabbed the handle of the sword and swung it down on the monster's eye. The monster spider screeched and fell off the passenger car.
Suddenly, a hand pulled him off the roof of the car, just as the train went through the low exit of the tunnel Gold looked at the person who had saved him and saw the smiling face of Lyra with Link standing behind her.
"You can keep the sword," Link said.
Gold stood up. "Thanks for saving me, guys."
Lyra said, "That's what friends are for!"
Link hopped onto the floor of the engine. Zelda walked back to sit in the passenger car. "We are approaching the Dark Realm shortly," Link explained.
Lyra was standing on the cannon platform in a couple seconds. "Got it!" she shouted back to Link who gave her a thumbs-up.
Gold opened his bag and stared at the ten bombs he had bought at Adoba Village. Will I ever use them? he thought. Just then, the train collided with the portal to the Dark Realm and they were teleported away.
