Ocarina of Time: The Three Goddesses Reincarnated

Chapter Thirty-Two: Bongo Bongo

"Get. Off. Now." Tessa growled, though her voice was muffled against the surface she was squashed on. Link groaned, but got off as he was told. Navi flew around the two frantically to see if they were all right. Link dusted himself off and stretched, but otherwise seemed fine, except for the minor headache. Tessa grumbled as she pushed herself off of the odd surface they had landed on, and checked her nose. It didn't seem broken, but it was definitely bruised. She cursed and glared at Link, who took no notice to the action.

Granted, it wasn't his fault entirely that they had bounced into a heap that ended up scraping her face, bruising her nose, and giving her a massive headache. Still, Tessa had to grumble at someone and he just happened to be there.

"So, what kind of platform are we on?" Link asked as he looked at the ground, and then around him. "Assuming we're on a platform."

Tessa looked around as well. It seemed to be that they were completely surrounded by darkness, which seemed to be normal in this temple, as were disembodied hands and heads. She hoped she wouldn't see any of those. She couldn't see where the platform ended, and whatever was beyond it began. It was very eerie, and Tessa almost giggled nervously, but she felt her heart get stuck in her throat from the feeling the place gave off. She then looked to the ground, where she saw what appeared to be normal, tan-colored floor. She then walked to Link, her footsteps sounded a bit hollow.

"Link, was I crazy, or did we bounce when we landed?" Tessa asked. Link nodded.

"Oh, so you're saying I'm crazy?" Tessa glared. Link raised an eyebrow.

"I was saying that we definitely did bounce into the pile we ended up in." Link stated in exasperation. Tessa nodded to show she understood.

"Okay then."

Then, a loud boom sound went throughout the area, and the two bounced about ten feet in the air. Tessa bounced back a few times, and landed on something that wasn't the surface. Link bounced to just another spot of the platform. He then looked to see where Tessa was, and looked absolutely horrified. She saw this, and looked down.

"OH MY FUCKING GOD GET IT AWAY FROM ME!" Tessa shouted and jumped off of the bloody dismembered hand that she had landed on. She ran to Link, and hid behind him. He drew out his sword, and she drew out her bow and arrow, although very apprehensively.

Then, another dismembered hand landed right beside it, and they bounced up in the air again. Link grabbed Tessa's arm so that she wouldn't bounce onto another hand, just in case. They still bounced, but this time they were able to see the edge of the platform. Around the platform fumes were arising from a purple, bubbling liquid substance. They ran more to the middle of the platform, and faced the two hands. Link waited for the hands to do something.

One of them raised, and beat the drum. It was a bit softer, but still made the two bounce slightly. Navi circled the two hands as they began to beat the platform in a steady rhythm. It was clear that they wouldn't be on the ground for more than a few seconds at a time during this battle.

"So it would seem we're on a giant drum with two bloody, rotted hands without bodies and what are we supposed to do? Those things are huge." Tessa grumbled, but almost seemed to whimper at her last sentence. Link didn't answer, but watched the hands carefully, until a giant figure appeared before them. It seemed to be a torso without arms, or legs. It had a long, thin neck with just one giant glowing red eyeball for a head, with what looked like withered flower petals around it. Tessa could only see it for a few seconds, before it vanished, but Link could see it thanks to the Eye of Truth in his eye.

Then, the hands started to beat a bit quicker. Tessa drew an arrow as she waited for something to happen. Suddenly, one hand stopped and laid on the platform as the other rose into the air, and swooped to grab them. Link dove for the flat hand and Tessa aimed her arrow at the active hand. She shot right as it almost clasped her. The hand drew back sharply, and tried shaking itself to get the arrow out.

Link hadn't been able to strike the other hand, It drove itself out of the way and raised into the air. It then went over him, and Link raised his sword up as it came crashing down. However, an arrow landed itself square in it's palm and the hand began to shake itself out as well. Then, Link ran for Tessa.

"Shoot the eye!"

"I can't see it!" Tessa exclaimed as she readied another arrow. Link stood behind her, and pointed to where it was shooting his arm and pointer finger from behind her neck, and beyond it. She kept her sight trained and she aimed her arrow at it, and fired. Suddenly, she was able to see the torso and eye as it came crashing down in front of them. Link shot forward and slashed the eye multiple times, causing a bright purple substance to come from the eye.

Then, the eye drew sharply away from Link and its hands drew the arrow out of the eye. They shot forward this time, going for each fighter at the same instant. Tessa was able to shoot her opponent but the other hand grabbed Link and it began to try to crush him. Tessa got out another arrow and shot the hand in the back. It released Link, who fell ungracefully onto the drum. However Link didn't dwell on his landing, and sprung to show Tessa where the eye was again.

She shot it square in the center, and Link plunged the sword as deep as he could into the eye. A surreal scream came from the eye as he dragged it out horizontally, causing the eye to seem as if it were split in two. Then, the hands fell limp, and the body began to disintegrate into purple flames. Tessa shuttered at the sight of the eye gushing it's green blood and turned around to vomit, but nothing came. She supposed it was because she hadn't eaten anything that day.

Link came up to her, and rested an arm on her shoulder. She didn't stop trembling, but she hugged him. He understood that all of her fear and disgust at this temple was finally getting to her thoroughly, and he just let her squeeze him as she tried to calm herself down. Navi, unseen, grinned and snuck into Link's cap.

The familiar blue light surrounded Tessa and Link, and Tessa looked around as it happened. Then she looked into Link's eyes.

"Are you okay?" Link asked. Tessa's trembling slowed to a halt, and she nodded.

"Yeah." She murmured. Then he smiled and placed a small kiss on her lips.

"That's good." He murmured.

Tessa couldn't even react before they were completely encased, and taken to the Sages' Realm.

End of Chappie

Yeah, another short chapter, but I have to explain something here.

My update took forever because my own computer completely broke down and it won't even turn on. GO FIGURE! So I'm on my parent's computer for a limited time. I'll try to get away with doing this during school but I don't know. Sorry about that. In other news, I have made four new fan art pieces to this story on my deviantart account. I am The Youkai Nightmare (although there are dashes between The and Youkai and Nightmare, not underscores, dashes) so if you want to see those, be my guest! Those four are all spoilers for the upcoming Spirit Temple, however.

So tell me how ya'll like it and I hope to get another chapter done soon. Speech season is almost over (one meet in Rock Springs, one weekend off but I have to go with choir to sing at Wyoming State 2A Basketball, and then Speech state in Cody and it's DONE!) so maybe I'll have more free time or whatever afterwards.
