Inside the beast's liar, inside the dinosaur of mischief's home, inside of Dodongo's Cavern, Shade and the others went inside to silence the threat of evil inside the Dragon's Peak. (Dodongo's Cavern is a cave in which evil dinosaurs roam, they never leave the cave unless instructed by their king to do so). Shade entered the dungeon along with his companions, and before they knew, what they saw, was really what they expected. (Dodongo's Cavern theme Ocarina of Time plays)
"What...the...?" Mystic said in awe,
"Is that what is really the problem?" Root asked,
"...you gotta be kidding!" Fragile shaking his head,
"This can't be it..." What they saw was a wall boarded up; they thought that this was the only thing keeping them from eating. Fragile looked to his right, while Shade went forward towards the board,
"Hey! There's a note!" he pulls it off, it says,
"Danger! Whoever trespasses through this wall, shall be punished if those who have the permission from Big Brother Geo, thy shalt be honored to enter- Big Brother Geo!"
"Oh...so if we did have his permission, which we don't...how do we get inside?" he asked,
"Uh? Shade over here!" Fragile pointed his paw over to a Bomb Plant.
"Oh...right...um? Didn't see that...hehe". He went over to it, picked the heavy, thing and quickly dropped it at the boarded wall, and jumped out of the way. BOOM. The wall blew up, and inside was nothing but lava, and some platforms, and two passageways on the left and right side, and a head of which looks to be a head shaped like Dodongo.
"OHhh" they all said,
"So...where do we start?" Shade taking out his sword,
"Hmm...My Goron instinct says we should take that way!" Fragile pointed to the left,
"Hey...Goron/Dog/Goat/ whatever you are...what makes you think we should go that way?" Mystic shouted,
"That's...because...I'm the one with the nose, and you're the one with a beak!" he said. Root looked at Mystic,
"He gotchu!"
"Yeah...yeah...we'll go that way!" he said displeased as ever.
"Alright then...it's settled...!" Shade jumped over the platform holding Fragile, and got to the center, and then turned left, and jumped to the other platform. Shade looked to see if Mystic flew to the cliff that he was at, and they were there.
"Okay...now that we're here! Now what?" asked Mystic?
"Simple...uh? Here's another Bomb Plant...why don't we use this little rascal to blow this wall up!"
"Heh! Why not! I mean...well...since there is a wall, and I love to blow things up!" He takes the bomb, and quickly throws it to the wall, but unexpectedly bounced back at them, and blew up behind them.
"...Oopps!"
"...Lemme do it Shade" Fragile insisted. Fragile stood up, on his two paws and picked up the bomb, and places it next to the wall. They all dove for cover, and it blew up into millions of little pieces,
"There...see Shade!" Fragile bragged,
"Him...Yeah...I see it...nice work!" he thanked,
"No problem!" Mystic looked inside,
"Uh yeah...big problem...Deku Shrub...at 12:00..." Mystic alerted,
"Whoa!" The Shrub shot a Deku Nut at Shade; he looked at it, and then rotated his side of his sword, and batted the nut back at the Shrub. The Shrub was hit, but it didn't flee,
"Oh...that's right..."
"Hmm? What Mystic?"
"It's a Deku Sales-Shrub they hide into different places to sell their needs!" Shade looked at the frightened Shrub, he walked closer, and the Shrub grew even more frightened.
"Hey!...I'm not gonna hurt ya!",
"...PLEASE DON'T HURT ME...UH?...MASTER...UM...HOW ABOUT I SELL YOU SOMETHING INSTEAD, AND BETTER YET GIVE YOU A LITTLE BACKGROUND INFO ON THIS DUNGEON...UH?...UM?...SO WHAT DO YA SAY 20 RUPEES?.!" he said oh so frightened,
"...Yeah why not!...I mean we are new here right?" Shade said, as they all nodded their heads. Shade reached into his pockets, and gave 20 rupees, the Shrub was relieved and gave Shade the Dungeon Map, Shade rolled the map and stored it away.
"Okay...what's the little secret?",
"Uh?...OH YEAH...HERE IT IS!...THIS PLACE IS DODONGO'S CAVERN, THE PLACE WHERE THE GEO'S FEAST UPON THE ROCKS, BUT DUE TO A CURSE BY A WITCH BY THE NAME OF KOUME. WHEN SHE DID SO, SHE CREATED THE BEAST DODONGO, IT'S SO SCARY THAT ALL WHO TRIED TO SLAY THE BEAST, WERE ALL EATEN ALIVE!",
"..." Shade was shocked,
"YES..AND NOT ONLY THAT...EACH AND EVERY WEEK, IT GETS PREGNANT FOR AN UNKNOWN REASON, BUT OF COURSE...I CAN TELL THAT YOU ARE A WARRIOR OF DIGNITY, I BELIEVE YOU CAN SLAY THE TERRIFYING BEAST, AND SAVE THE LAND FROM THIS DREADFUL CURSE...!", the Shrub said ending the Background info,
"..." Shade was silent, looking down at the ground, and then looked at the shrub, and smiled.
"Hmph...you know...I get that alot!",
"YE...YES SIR...NOW I MUST BE ON OUR WAY!...BUT...I MUST GIVE YOU THIS!...",
"Hmm?...what for?",
"BECAUSE MY FRIENDS SHALL KNOW WHO YOU REALLY ARE...SO I GIVE YOU THIS DEED TO LET THE OTHERS KNOW NOT TO ATTACK YOU!",
"Hey!..that can really come in handy!". The nervous Deku Sales-Shrub gave him a Deku Deed, and just like that and it dug right into the ground, and left. Shade rolled up the Deed, and put it away. (The Deku Deed, is a paper signed by a Deku Sales-Shrub to let the other Sale-Shrubs know that you are a friend of their race, but you still have to pay for what they have, that you might need.)
"Well that went well" Mystic said,
"Alright...now that thats settled, let's just continue on" the impatient Root said, on top of Mystic's back,
"Alright...you guys...c'mon...let's get this started already!". Shade and the other went to the next door, beside the other door they were in. Shade and the others enter the room, and reach to some stoned staircase, where there was a cob web at the top.
"...This bites...man I hate Spiders!" Mystic said,
"You know I do...I mean I'm a little small for those things!" Root stated,
"We know...we just gotta find a way...to..." Shade paused, when he looked and found an eye looking them, but it wasn't moving, it wasn't planning to attack them, it just stood there.
"How long has that thing bee looking at us?" asked Mystic,
"...well...lets find out then!" Shade said already sneaking towards that eye, with a triangular yellow like substance around it.
"Oh?...Shade..." Fragile trying to him something,
"Shh...we don't want to give us away!: he said continuing to sneak towards to the eye over at the corner. Shade looked at it, and then struck it with his sword, but it only recoiled him back.
"Hmm...that didn't work!",
"Obviously...but wait...I think we'll need something like a...slingshot or something?" Fragile said. Shade got a little interested in what Fragile was suggesting, so he went over to him,
"Do you know where I can get a slingshot?",
"No...but why don't we just look around?...I mean...someone could've left one behind",
"Ha...you maybe right?." Shade agreed,
"Um?..one minor problem!...who would leave a perfectly good slingshot in a place like this?" Root asked,
"Lot's of people...who else...?...I mean there's gotta be one around here somewhere?" he said looking around. Mystic flew up in the air, but didn't look up, which made him bump into the a large stone, that began to rattle. Shade looked up, and saw that the stone was about to drop.
"Mystic !HEADS UP!" he shouted, as the stone fell, and just in time, Mystic flew out of the way. The stone dropped onto the ground, and what Shade saw actually caught him by surprise. The stone was actually carved in a shape. Shade got near it,
"What do you think this is?" he got closer, Mystic looked up to Shade about to touch the stone,
"Shade watch out that's a Dinofols" Mystic warned, but it was too late, Shade had touch the stone, but a little bit too hard, and it caused it to fall over and break. (Dinofols are those easy to kill dinosaurs that breathe fire, in Majora's Mask). Before Shade knew it, it swung it's blade, and it gave Shade a cut to the chest. Blood was dripping from his chest, but not alot.
"Whoa!..*cough*...that caught me of guard" Shade's cut was easily healed up, but his upper armor still had a tear on it.
"Shade you alright!.?" he asked,
"Yeah...just took me by surprise...that's all...I can go on!..." he said taking out his sword. The Dinofols got ready to attack, since Shade didn't have a shield, he was ready anyway. Shade went to his fighting stance, and waiting for him to attack. It charged, and Shade ducked low avoiding his horizontal attack, and Shade struck it. It did another horizontal attack after back flipping backwards twice, and jumping to the right side. Shade barely dodged it, but it only singed a piece of his hair.
"All right...I got this!". It did a vertical attack this time, and Shade quickly clashed it with his sword. The Dinofols used all of it's strength and thrusts Shade of it's blade, and swung at Shade. Shade barely ducked it, and struck it's stomach. It grew weaker, by the second, Shade of course grew confident, and so to seal the deal. He quickly runs to it, and just before it knew it, another one kicked Shade back.
"Awh!...". They both communicated very well, and began thinking up a strategy. Shade stood up, a little wounded, but knew he could do it, he just think with his brain, not with his sword. The two Dinofols surrounded Shade,
"C'mon Shade! you got this!" cheered Fragile,
"Thats right...slice'em into four pieces!" Root cheered also. Shade looked at Mystic, and saw him sleeping, he had a squint look on his face. The 1st one, jumped at Shade, which knocked him to the ground. Quickly, Shade rolled out of the way, before he was stabbed by it. Shade struck the legs, and it made it trip. And the other one blew fire, and Shade put his arm behind him. Shade spun around, and twirled the fire. But what he didn't know was, his Shadow power can absorb any element like attacks, that isn't his weakness. So Shade's sword grew red, and was very very fiery hot. Shade looked at the sword,
"Shade! your sword!.?" Root said in surprised,
"It...It...It absorbed the flames!",
"I can see...is this part of my power?". The 2nd one, grew very impatient, and charged at him. Shade turned his eyes to the right, held his sword with both hands, over his head, and sliced through the 2nd one, leaving it buried in flames. The injured one with no legs, crawled over to Shade, and still wanted to kill him. Shade looked down at the crawling Dinofols, he lifted up his sword and stabbed it right into the head. Mystic finally woke up, and flew over to the other three.
"Nice...work Shade...you actually proved you talent!",
"Easy for you to say...I was the one who fought both of these killer Dinofols!" he complained. Root looked over to his right,
"Hey?...was that there before!.?" he asked,
"Uh?...no...not that I know of!" Shade said,
"Well...open it Shade!". Shade nodded his head, and walked over to the mysterious chest, he opens it, and sees something that sparkles his eyes. He hops onto the ledge, and retrieves the item, and comes back out with the: Geo Slingshot. (I'm going to make a website of this story, like a glossary but this is the last chapter I will put Parentheses.) (The Geo Slingshot is a type of weapon used to break heavy things, such as medium sized boulders. The items used for it are the Geo Mini Bombs) (Geo Mini Bombs are normal sized bombs that can do some damage to close enemies, but just to let you know, the Geo's are looking for the slingshot, so if I was Shade, I would keep it all to myself, but that's just me...ha).
Shade grabbed it, and aimed it at the eye. He pulled back on the band and shot it towards the eye, and when he touched and exploded. The stoned steps descended lower, reachable for them to climb upon.
"Well...here goes nothing!" he walks over to the stoned staircase. He jumps unto the first one, and pulls himself up onto the ledge; he turns and notices mystic flying the others to the upper ledge.
"Now…you do it! Man your useless…."
"You too…I would've dropped those uglies in a second!"
"Riiight…keep talking!". He jumps and pulls himself onto the other ledge, and continues to do this until he reaches the top. He turns around and sees them on an even higher ledge, behind a cob web. He runs up the stairs on the side, he meets up with them.
"You guys make it alright?" he asked,
"Yeah it wasn't hard for us" Root boasted,
"Easy for you to say..." he dropped off the others. Shade walked up to them, *CREEEEEEEK!*. They heard a noise,
"AWH!...man I hate sounds like that!" he covered his ears,
"Ohhh...okay...do you want to know where it's coming from?" Mystic asked,
"Yea..of course" he takes out his sword,
"Alright then close your eyes, and walk backwards!",
"huh?...",
"It's a dream creature..you can only see it when you close you eyes!". Shade closed his eyes and walked back,
"You know you're for this!" Root whispered,
"I know...but it's soo worth it!" he whispered back,
"..Aren't you gonna do something Fragile?",
"..." he remained silent, but just smiled. As Shade walked backwards, Mystic began to laugh, and right behind was a Gold Skulltula just crawling in circles.
"Okay thats it...keep going!", Fragile smiled some more. Shade then stopped, 2 inches near the Skulltula, he then stuck the sword right on the belly of the arachnid.
"Heh I knew it" Fragile smirked. Shade pulled the sword back out and walked back to the group,
"You guys can't fool me...hehe",
"How did you know?...",
"Please Mystic...I can read you like a book" he begins gabbing.
"I of course...have known you and observed you for the longest and I sure can predict anything that has to do with me suffering" he puts his sword back into the slot tied to his left shoulder.
"Alright...enough of the talking lets just hurry out of this weird dark damp cavern!" Root bounced on top of Mystic's back. Shade walked closer to the wooden door, he placed both his hands under it. He struggles lifting it, but eventually gets a good grip on it, and lifts it open. The four walk past it, leaving Shade to quickly let go, and bolt inside.
"Okay...guys stay close...anything could happen" he begins to stay cautious. Mystic of course had to listen to Shade, because he was the one with power, the sword, and the strength, and all he had was just, wings.
"You can say that again", Root notices something when he looks up.
"Hey guys check this out!", Mystic looks up also. They both see that the pathway way in front of them leads up to the ceiling, like a swirling vortex.
"Whoa...okay...thanks for the heads up...Root...". Shade took a step closer to lava, but was suddenly stopped,
"Hold it Shade' Fragile warned,
"Huh?...*SIZZLE!*" he stepped in it,
"YAHHHHHOOOOOOWWWW!" he shouted, hopping on one foot, while cooling the other one off. Mystic and Root couldn't help but laugh,
"Ha...man that was funny". After recovering, he took out his sword and pointed at the owl.
"Oh..did I do that out loud!" he begins to hover. Fragile grew impatient,
"Okay...Okay..we had our little fun...now can we just hurry and get this over with" he walks with his four legs over to another door on the other side, in which Shade had to open with his bare hands. He jumps unto a piece of ground in the middle of the medium sized puddle of lava, and makes it to the other side.
"Nice going..." he says. Shade walks backwards, then dashes forward to make it to the piece of land, and then onto the other one. Mystic flew over to them, along with Root.
"We're all hear...now stand back" he turns around, placed both his hands onto the bottom of the wooden door. He struggles to pick it up, but manages. He lifts it open, and heads inside along with the others. The four head up the swirling vortex like pathway, and stops at the 3rd floor at an edge.
"Whoa..." he holds the other back,
"We gotta be more careful..", Shade looks over to the other side, and notices a platform, then looks down to the ground, and sees a lake of lava.
"Alright you guys..." he begins to give out instructions,
"Mystic fly Root and Fragile to the other edge!",
"No problem I guess!",
"Don't even think about dropping me..!" he ordered,
"Don't worry I would...if it wasn't for Shade". He grabs him with his claws and flies him to the other side. Shade jumps onto the platform in the middle, lost his balance, but fortunately regained it, then continued to jump to the other edge. Fragile in a hurry said,
"Now that that's done, c'mon" he bolts on ahead. Shade had to catch his breathe, but caught up with the others. Finally after going from floor to floor, they made it to the last one.
"Alright you guys...stay..here I sense something on the other side of this door!" he warned them.
"You sure Shade" Fragile asked,
"Mhm...I'll be back..." he runs to the door,
"Oh...and by the way" he gets their attention,
"Fragile you're in charge!",
"WHAT UNFAIR!.." Mystic shouts. Shade predicted this would happen, so he mouths everything that Mystic said after the previous one.
"WHY DOES FRAGILE...GET TO DO EVERYTHING COOL...ALL THE TIME...WHAT ABOUT MY NEEDS!.?...I NEED TO DO SOMETHING MORE FUN THEN PARTY UP WITH YOU!". Shade takes a sigh, then turns around,
"Look...Fragile is more mature...then you think...I mean he's more dependable than you",
"He's gotta point there" Root added,
"Oh...so I assume you wanna walk?",
"No no thanks...right here is fine thank you",
"That's what I thought". Shade turns back around,
"I'll be back..." he opens the dungeon door, but as it closes, bars appeared sealing his exit. He turns his head first then his body, but over his right shoulder. A kid dinosaur like dragon kid appeared right behind him. Shade takes out his sword, while turning slowly around. He sees the kid crying, he walks over to it.
"Hey?...you okay?" he asked it,
"*Whimper Whimper*...I'm sorry...*Cries*..",
"Huh?...then behind him, a foe jumped from the ceiling, and attempted to strike Shade, but he barely deflected it. He pushes the kid back, and focuses on the enemy. It turned out to be a Inferfols. (A mutated version of the Dinofols, because of it's new tails, it can easily grab a hold of you, and bash you against the hard ground numerous times). (Ocarina of Time- Mini Boss theme plays).
It charged at Shade with rage, and did a vertical sword swing at him. He clashed it with his sword, and stabbed it. It didn't bleed, it only grew angrier. It jumped behind Shade, kicked him in the back, and tried to stab him. He rolled over, and went back into his fighting stance. It jumped strikes at Shade, but he jumps to the left, does a hard left horizontal swing at the Inferfols. It's eyes grew red, and began breathing fire. Shade got ready, and with a smirk on his face, he allowed it to blow fire at him. Shade spun around, and ignited the sword with flames, he then strikes it with nice sword combos. He stabs, and stabs, he spins then strikes it on the left side, then brings the sword back to strike it on the right. He kicks it up he rolls in the air with his right hip pointing at the Inferfols face, takes his sword, ans slices it down to the ground hard. With it's last breathe, it died, and then vanished in the shadows. He puts his sword back in the slot, takes a breather, and turns back around and notices the kid was gone. Little as he knew it, he was being watch by the kid, hiding behind rocks. The kid whimpers, and trembles with absolute fear, Shade already knew where it was, he just didn't want to scare it, or leave it here, in this scary cavern.
He walks over to it behind the rocks.
"Hey?...come on out little guy" he extends his arm out to pet it. It cries even more,
"Hey...come on now...I killed it...it'a gone". The kid stops crying, and walks over to Shade, it hugs his face, and licks it.
"Hahahah...okay..hahaha alright.." Shade laughs,
"Excuse...me...hero",
"Hmm?...yeah?"
"I thank you for saving my life...it's just that, it's been terrorizing me...for a long time. and I prayed that a hero would come rescue me!" it's smile turn into a shy look.
"Awh..don't mention it...oh and my names Shade" he extends his arm,
"My name's Ninogen, prince of all Jabbers, but please call me Nino" he shakes his hand. (Jabbers are also Dinosaur Dragons, who live in volcanoes, but his people live in the Hyrule region. The King and Queen are currently separated due to Satar and Ganondorf)
" I'm not from here...I came to visit my brother in this volcano!".
"Wait...your brother is the guardian of this volcano!",
"Mhm...Pathogen, he's also the prince of all Jabbers". Shade took a little time to think,
{"I SEE I APOLOGIZE...I AM JUST IN SEARCH FOR MY BROTHER",
"Your brother?...",
"YES...EVER SINCE SATAR TOOK HIM AWAY FROM ME...I'VE BEEN IN A ANGER STATE EVER SINCE.}, he remembers the time he met him.
"Hmm?...how did you end up in here?" he asked,
"Well...it all started like this..." he begins to tell the story.
"Ever since the King of Demons entered my kingdom, he caused war that forced my father to fight him. But ever since that happened, I never saw, heard, or hugged him again. That's why I need to become the prince I always wanted to be, so I can search for my father. That's why I came to visit my brother in order to do so. So while I was searching for the whereabouts of my brother, I encountered a witch with bubbly eyes, and red fire like hair, who sent monsters to kill me. I ran into this dungeon, to stay safe. But what I didn't know was, she cursed the dungeon with a dreadful beast, Queen Dodongo. I had ti hide inside, because someone had boarded up the entrance, so I had to stay hidden.",
"Hmm sounds interesting...but we can't stay here...we have to get you home!",
"Right...but first I would like to see my brother 1st" he nodded.
"Agreed...alright let's go!"Shade headed for the door, opened it, and let Nino go first. Shade looked left and right, but couldn't find the others.
"What the...HEY!...GUESS!" he called for them,
"..." no answer,
"You have companions?" he asked,
"Yeah...that's right...but I don't know where they went". Nino looked to his right, and noticed a wing was peaking out from two boulders,
"Is that one of them?" he pointed. Shade saw the wing sticking out, he went over to it, and once he got behind the two boulders, he saw Fragile tied up, and the two of them were playing cards.
"Mystic!",
"What?.!...what was I supposed to do!...I can't have a Dog/Goron/Dinosaur/...whatever...telling me what to do!", he complained, as Shade was untying Fragile.
"Boy...would I like to scratch the beak of your face",
"Don't make me poke your eye out!",
"Just try it!",
"Bring it on half breed!",
"Quiet...both of you!" Shade commanded. Root noticed Nino,
"Hey?..uh?...Shade whose...that behind you?", Shade looked behind his leg,
"Guys...this is Prince..." before Shade could finish, Mystic interrupted,
"Ninogen, Prince of the Jabbers!",
"How'd you know...?",
"His people and I go way back!",
"Oh then you must be Mystic then...my parents have said that your a messenger of the one who actually saved both Hyrule and Nebulas back when it was in evil hands!",
"MESSENGER!.?...why I outta!",
"Mystic calm down...we don't time for this...we gotta find and kill Dodongo..so we can leave and restore please on this land!" he orderd,
"ARGH!" Mystic grumbles.
"Hi...I'm Fragile",
"Nice to meet you",
"Same here...the names Root from Dewpoint Town!"
"I've heard about that place...the mayor there I think is one of Satar's and Ganondorf's followers",
"Haha I figured", The five headed for the edge in front of the door.
"Shade...I know you're good at finding out solutions...so...WHAT DO WE DO NOW!"
"Hold your horses...we have to find out what to do next!". Fragile's sensitive nose picked up a scent of treasure chest, over where they meet up.
"Hey?..uh?...Shade",
"Yeah?...what's up?",
"Was that there before?" he asked,
"Apparent;y not!" he walked over there, after giving them the hand signal to stay put. He walked over to the chest, he lifted the top, then pushed it back, he jumped onto the ledge, grabbed the item, then jumped down. Shade now has the Goron Knuckles. (The Goron Knuckles are Iron made material used to break, pick up, and move certain items. Used for centuries, the Goron's definitely want those, so if I were you I would keep those to yourself. But although they are one of a kind, they carry a lot of weight, about 2 tons.)
"Whoa!.." he falls to the ground, with his fist buried in the dirt. He struggles to lift them up, for they are way too heavy to carry.
"Okay...man these Gorons...must be tougher then I though...but still I'm still going.." he attempts to pick them up, but once again has no luck.
"Okay...maybe I won't be able touse them with enemies very well", he stores them in his pack, and catches up with the others.
"What were those things you had on?" Root asked,
"Oh nothing important haha...just something Goron's use to pick up stuff!",
"Oh Okay..I guess",
"So Shade...what do we do now?" Nino asked,
"I don't know..." he begins to look around and think. He didn't think of it at first but a loose Stalagmite on the ceiling. It dawns on him, that he had a knew weapon that can knock it down, to block the pouring lava.
"Hey Mystic...watch this" he gets his attention,
"What?". He takes the Geo Slingshot out of his storage, inserts a mini bomb on the launcher, and aims at it. He shoots it away, and a direct hit, made the Stalagmite rock, then fall hard and fast on the pouring lava. It clogged the lava pouring, and it then turned black, and hard.
"Ha...score one for the man..oh yeah" he put it back in storage.
"Okay..genius now what!.?". Shade took out the knuckles, and looked down at the Stalagmite clogging the lava pouring. He walked backwards toward the door, and then jumped from the ledge and going full speed, he jerked back his right arm, and thrusts it forward. He successfully pounded the top of the Stalagmite. It cracked, then it spread throughout, including the dred up lava, and down below it broke through, making shade fall along with it.
"Ahahaha" Mystic laughs. Inside in the new little are, Shade gets up,
"Very funny Mystic...Huh?" he says as he saw an unsual chest, with yellowish gold, blue chest. Shade looked at it,
"Hey guys...I fouind something!" he called as the others came towards from above. Shade picked himself up, and walked over to it. He lifted the top, pushed it back, jumped onto the ledge, grabbed the utem, and jumped out. Shade now has the Boss Key. He carries it, and walks towards the others.
"I believe we're almost there now" he puts it in his pack,
"Yeah...so what now?" Mystic asked,
"There's a door over there...maybe that could help us?" Fragile said oh so sarcastically,
"Shut up dog!...",
"Hey c'mon guys Shade already opening the door", they all turn their heads over to Nino,
"What?..",
"Since you're new and all...we would like for you to know...that...we always rely on Shade to do our hard work,...well sometimes we help with the little things, but yeah Shade does the hard work!" Mystic explains everything they do to Nino
"Fragile...?" Nino called,
"It's kinda true...well I sometimes help him with the most difficult things, and little things, but Mystic here got a point...our job is to guide Shade to his heroic triumphant Son of Time he was chosen to be" Fragile explained also,
"Son of Time?.!...he's the Son of Time?.!",
"Yeah..that's right" Root said,
"I've heard stories of the Hero of Time...so he's the one who shall save Nebulas from the two evil Kings",
"Yeah...that's kinda it!". Shade had done lifting the door open,
"Alright come on you guys...it's open..." they walk over to him, and exit the room. Shade and the others continue to walk down the path.
"(Man...how could they do that to Shade)" Nino thought,
"(I gotta go tell'em ...I just got to)". Shade notices how he trembles, so he answers his question,
"Hey...don't worry about...I already know...in fact I've been known...but I'm not mad at all...they're my friends...",
"(Wow so forgiving)",
"Okay...just to let you know...",
"Pretty soon you're gonna start doing it to",
"No...I refuse...",
"I know ...c'mon",
"No...that's unacceptable..I won't",
"...Hmm...well then...thanks". He looks up to Shade, as if he was a brother, and they just got to know each other. Anyway, they arrived at the main room of the cavern,
"Whoa...that was one weird trip" Mystic said,
"You're telling me..." Shade said lookign around with the others. He feels some raw energy coming from a hidden area, he can't quite locate it right now.
"Stay here!" he hops over one platform, and hopes over to the main one in the middle. He turns to his left, where the head of Dodongo is located. He walks over to it, he grabs the bottom of the mouth, and with the power of the knuckles, he successfully lifts the mouth open, when his hands slip onto the upper part of the mouth.
"Oh well..." Shade dusts off his hands,
"All this time it was right in front of us" Fragile laughed,
"Haha true...but we needed the Boss Key to open the gate" Root said. Mystic grabs Fragile and flies over to where Shade is.
"Hey...uh is this gonna be a regular thing...because since you can only carry a squirrel and Dog/Goron/Dinosaur/Dragon/Lizard/Sword Fish..who am I supposed to fly with!",
"...WHAT THE?.!..." Shade, Mystic, Fragile, and
"Man this guy is good...but anyway dude you can swin in lava right?",
"Yeah...I mean in general...like water!",
"Well why don't we cross that bridge whe we come to it" Mystic interrupted again,
"Nevermind *Sigh*" he caught up with the others. They entered the mouth, and there was the Boss Door.
"Well this is it...Root, Fragile, Nino stay here...Mystic and I can handle this!",
"Why Mystic...I bet he won't help you",
"Yeah he will or else the Gods will curse him!",
"*Sigh*..I hate the Gods",
"I wouldn't say that...but anyway...c'mon...I'll come back here when I'm done!" he walked through the door, along with Mystic. Shade looked around and sees nothing,
"What!.?...that's ith...where is this soo called Queen Dodongo...?" Mystic asked. Shade walked over to a weird spot on the floor.
"Hey Mystic...it's below us",
"Ohhh...!". Shade takes out his Geo Slingshot, and shoots a bomb onto the hole. They both quickly back off, and *Boom!*. Shade and Mystic jumped through the hole.
"AHHHHH!" he yelled landing on the soft ground. The room was partially dark, with not much light, so he couldn't see that he was being watched. But in the dark something was moving, getting closer, closer and closer, Shade wasn't aware that it was behind him. He heard the rumbling of the earth, so he turned around, and was...
*ROOOOOOOOOAAAAARRRRRRRR*, (Dinosaur Battle Dodongo Theme- Ocarina of Time)
"Its...It's...QUEEN DODONGO!...THE IRON DINOSAUR OF MISCHIEF!",
"Wha!...why is it called the Iron Dinosaur!.?", he shouted trying to hear Mystic,
"EVERYONE ALWAYS SAYS THAT...ARGH!",
"Wh..." he couldn't finish what he had to say, because it struck with it's long razor sharp tail. Shade side flipped to the other side. It rolled very fast towards him, Shade ran away from the beast, but it was way too fast, and caused Shade to dove out of the way.
*ROAAAAAAARRRRRRRRR!*, it circled around again. Shade looked down, while kneeling, and found out that a medium sized lava puddle was in the middle of the area.
"Shade try using your Knuckles to knock it off balance!". Shade didn't know what to do, so he allowed a few amount of shadow power, to defeat him. Shade stood his ground, and as it got nearer, Shade turned his head the other way with both hands extended, he closed his eyes. And then...
*CRAAASSHHHH*, Shade was being pushed his feet were dragging on the ground, marks were made on the ground. But it all stopped, Shade was able to gain control, and so he made the beast turn over. He thrusted it, which made him fall over, to his right. He took his sword out, and began striking it with the sword. Then it popped up on its two feet, it looked over to Shade, and slapped him to the wall, with it's ferocious, gigantic, claws. It pinned him to the wall, and began crushing him. Shade's shadow power grew powerful, and increased his power. To be honest Shade has only mastered only level's 1 and 2, he hasn't even thought about master his 3rd one yet.
Shade broke the hold of the beast, and waited for it to start rolling again. It did and it charged at Shade, he got ready, and *CRASH!*. Shade turned it over again, and he jumped on top and struck it's head with a hard clash. He then continued to do more strikes onto it's head. Then it grew even angrier and
*ROAAAARED!*,
"Shade watch out for it's earthquakes!",
"..." he ran away has large amounts of rocks came tumbling down the ceiling. He dodged a few, but then jumped from rock to rock, and his shadow power grew around him. 4th level of shadow is starting to cause something that has to do with his energy level. Shade takes his sword, and sliced the head of the beast. Then jumped from the wall, then finished the head off into little pieces. He then looks at the body he jumps from the wall from the left side, aerial flips far away from it, then throws the sword where the head was. Then he walks over to it, then grabs the sword, holds the body over it's head, and chucks it over his head. It burns in the lava, and then the body sinks inside. The lava dries up black. (Boss Defeated- Ocarina of Time.
Shade's shadow power vanished, leaving him with no energy whatsoever. He was limping in a horrifying state, his vision was like he was blind, couldn't speak. He couldn't een breathe without being in deadly pain. He couldn't reach the body, so as soon as his heart gave out his last beat. He fell heading towards the ground, but with the tip of his finger he barely touched the Heart Container that appeared next the body. And Shade fell unconscious as ever on the ground, without breathing. But where he was going, he shall help the ones who are helping him right now, in the future along side the greatest companion of all time.
