Chapter 15
The Second Dungeon Miniboss
Link was sitting near the lake while day drew close to night. But it also was getting cold and the lake started to freeze as the day grew closer to night. "Why is the lake freezing?" Link asked Navi. "Probably so you can walk to the temple in the middle of the lake," Navi answered. "It's starting to get really cold to I think I'll make a campfire," Link said.
Link gathered some firewood and soon had a campfire going. "This is boring," Dark Link said. "Not really," I said practicing minor magic with my crystal like sending memories and making light shields on myself.
"That's because you have something to do!" Dark Link shouted. "Why are you getting mad at me," I said, "I'm practicing magic that can't kill you because you blocked some of the necklaces magic." "So you don't escape," Dark Link said. "Whatever," I said and went back to practicing minor magic with my necklace. Link sat around the campfire and the full moon was at its peak. "So where's the Moon Sanctuary," Link said. "Just be patient," Navi said.
All the sudden a moon beam came from the moon and touched the lake and the Moon Sanctuary came into sight. "Wow it's like an ice temple," Link said, "But how do we get to it?" "Walk across the ice," Navi said. "But the ice could break as soon as I step onto it," Link explained. "And the lake froze hours ago," Navi argued back.
"Fine I'll go," Link said with a sigh, "But it's your fault if I freeze to death because the ice broke." Link started on to the lake and he made it to the temple without the ice breaking but he almost slipped a couple of times. "See wasn't so bad," Navi said. "Oh be quiet," Link muttered and opened the doors to the Moon Sanctuary.
Link walked into the Moon Sanctuary and the inside of the Moon Sanctuary was ice just like the outside. "It's cold here," Navi said. "You just noticed now," Link said. "Actually I noticed a while ago but it just got colder when we got into the Moon Sanctuary," Navi explained. "That doesn't make it any sense," Link said.
"Why don't we just focus on the dungeon and not the cold," Navi said almost shouting. "Okay fine," Link said and looked around. The room was reasonably large with ice columns holding up the ceiling and at the other end was an ice door that had a lock Link never seen before.
"What do you think is on the other end of this door?" Link asked. "I don't know but I don't think a normal key can open it," Navi answered. The lock was golden with a red jewel above the keyhole. "Maybe the key for it is later in this dungeon," Link suggested. "Then let's look for it," Navi said.
"I really wonder what's on the other side of this door," Dark Link said and turned to me, "And I bet you know." "What am I your information source?" I asked. "Maybe," Dark Link answered. "Well I seriously don't know," I said and added when Dark Link shot a glare at me, "Honest."
Link walked to the only door left beside the entrance and the locked door which was on the left side of the room. The next room was like and icy cavern and had spikes hanging down from the ceiling. Two ice keese were flying around the room.
"This will be simple," Link said, "I'll just kill the keese and move on." "It's not that easy," Dark Link said. "Don't even think about!" I shouted. But Dark Link already did a downwards motion with his hand which caused the spikes on the ceiling to fall down when ever Link was underneath them. Two spikes above Link started to fall. "Link look out!" Navi shouted.
Link moved of the way and right in front of the ice keese. Link killed them with one slash of his sword but other spikes right above him started to fall. Link ran out of the way only to run underneath even more spikes. "Quick Link get to the door," Navi said. Link ran to the door spikes falling behind him and made it to the door and went through it.
The next room had a tall frozen waterfall that looked almost impossible to climb. "How do I get up that?" Link asked. "I'm thinking how," Navi answered, "Just wait." "Heh he'll never get pass this," Dark Link said, "It's impossible."
"No it's not," I said. Dark Link glared at me, "How do you know?" "There's stairs over there by the wall of the room that's barely noticeable," I said. "Navi," Link said. "What," Navi said, "I haven't come up with anything." "There are some stairs right over there," Link said pointing to some stairs.
"I don't like the person who made this dungeon," Navi muttered. "Maybe this dungeon is like test," Link said, "And when you pass the test you get whatever is in that locked room." "What do you think is in that room?" Navi asked. "No clue," Link answered.
Link walked up the stairs and at the top he saw a switch. "I think you should step on it," Navi suggested. "I think your right since the door we need to get through is barred," Link said pointing to the door. Link stepped on the switch and they felt a rumble. "What was that," Navi said starting to get nervous.
"Heh this is getting interesting," Dark Link said. "Dark Link," I said getting annoyed. "What," Dark Link said turning to me and I punched him in the face. "What was that for!?" Dark Link shouted. "Because you laugh evilly every time Link runs into trouble," I argued. "Why I want to enjoy moments that could kill Link," Dark Link said. "Shut up!" I shouted punching him in the face again.
Link and Navi heard the sound of ice breaking from the edge of the icy ridge they were on next to the waterfall that was frozen. "Link I think the waterfall is going to unfreeze," Navi said. "Navi the door isn't barred anymore," Link said pointing to the door. "Quick get to it before the waterfall unfreezes completely," Navi said.
Link ran to the door but the water unfroze and the ice cracked underneath Link's feet and he fell into rushing water going toward the waterfall. "Link," I called out desperately. "Well looks like that got rid of him," Dark Link said. "It's not that easy to get rid of Link," I said punching Dark Link in the face again.
Link burst out of the water coughing and grabbed a rock just before reaching the waterfall. "T-t-this water is freezing," Link said shivering. "Well get out of there and get to the door," Navi said. "The current is to strong I can't just swim over to the edge of the river that easily," Link said.
Navi rolled her eyes, "Did you come prepared like do you have a zora's tunic?" Link gave Navi a nervous smile, "Sorry." "You idiot!" Navi shouted. "Okay you don't have to shout," Link said, "Let's just try to get me out of the water first." "What can I do I'm just a fairy," Navi said. "Use your knowledge," Link said.
"Ugh fine then use your sword," Navi said. "What do you mean?" Link asked. "Is the cold water getting to your brain," Navi said getting impatient, "Stab the sword into the ice at the edge of the river and pull yourself out." "Yes I told you he would be okay," I cheered. "How did you know he would make it?" Dark Link asked angrily. "Probably because I know him so well from adventuring with him," I answered.
Link pulled himself out of the water using Navi's idea. "I-I-I'm cold," Link said shivering. "Well move around you'll warm up and dry off," Navi said. "Okay," Link said and went through a door to the next room. The next room was empty with two doors. One door was blocked by ice spikes but the other door was unblocked.
"Well we only have one choice," Link said walking through the door that was unblocked. As soon as Link walked into the empty room the door behind him got barred and two white wolves appeared. "Link you do know these two wolves are different from the ones you fought before do you?" Navi asked.
"Actually I don't," Link answered. "Then let me explain as soon as your sword makes contact with there fur you'll be frozen," Navi said. "Then what do I do," Link demanded. "I'm coming up with an idea quickly," Navi said. "This is enjoyable," Dark Link said. "No it's not," I said slapping Dark Link.
"I have an idea," Link said running to a torch nearby and dipping his sword into the flames. "Now I have a fire sword," Link said. The wolves leaped at Link but he slashed them killing them instantly. The bars on the door disappeared and a treasure chest appeared.
