Chapter 5: Ruto and the Spiritual Stone of Water, Part I

a week after Harry's victory on Death Mountain:

Harry was walking along the path that followed Zora's River upriver. He was anxious to get the final Spiritual Stone from the leader of the Zoras. He smiled at the prospect of meeting the fish-people. The river was long, but he soon made it to the waterfall. He stood on an image of a grate, and heard a mysterious voice.

"Play the Song of the Royal Family, and the way forth shall open for you." Harry pulled out his ocarina, and played the aforementioned song. After the final note was played, he watched as the waterfall itself parted down the middle. He jumped the gap, and ran into the cavern. The young hero gasped as he saw a huge lake loom out before him. He saw a path, and followed it to his destination. As soon as he reached it, he stood in amazement at the large fish-like being before him.

"Can I help you, young man?"

"Are you King Zora?"

"That I am. What can I do for you?"

"I was told that I could find the Spiritual Stone of Water here."

"Aye, you can. However, the holder is not present at this time. She was eaten by our guardian god, Jord Jabu-Jabu. We need someone to go in to rescue her."

"I'll do it. So, who is the holder?"

"My daughter, Princess Ruto. If you save her, and she deems you worthy, you may have the stone."

"Okay." Harry ran beyond the zora, and soon after, saw the whale-like being that is Jabu-Jabu. He remembered that guardian gods liked offerings, so he presented a fish as an offering, and was instantly inhaled with the fish. After waking up, he looked around, before hearing a yell of shock. He rushed forward, and saw a young female. She was running from a tentacle of a giant parasite. He saw a jellyfish getting closer and closer to the young princess, and took matters into his own hands, by grabbing her around the chest, and pulling her away. He could feel the starts of breasts, but didn't care. Once they were out of danger, Ruto promptly smacked the "stranger", simply because he grabbed a little high. She was reflexively covering her upper torso.

"Who are you?"

"Harry. Are you Princess Ruto?"

"Yes. I'm the next in line for leader of all the Zoras of this land."

"Great! Let's go. Your father's worried sick!"

"I can't leave yet. That monster stole the Spiritual Stone! I must get it back, but it broke my boomerang!"

"Okay. I'll try to get it for you. You just stay here, out of danger."

"No way. I must be the one to retrieve it!"

"Fine. How do you propose we do that, Your Highness?"

"You're carry me."

"But I won't be able to fight."

"That's ok. We Zoras are very resistant to electricity. We have to be to live the way we do."

"Fine. Carrying it is." Harry picked Ruto up, mindful of her "lower area", and ran forward. Ruto used her fin blades to deal with the jellyfish, while Harry dashed forward. Unfortunately, one of the jellyfish got the young hero from behind, and zapped him with plenty of electricity. He kept going though. What he didn't know is that the first jellyfish to zap leaves behind a trace for others to follow, so Harry was zapped so much that he collapsed. The parasite then grabbed the young hero around the neck, and started to choke him. The last thing he saw was a shady figure throwing something, and then darkness took him. He thought he heard faint laughter in the background.
