Well, I definitely have to say that a funeral is not a good way to start a week. *sigh* At least I have the best friends that I could ever ask for. Anyway, All of the reviews (a whopping 2) guessed the exact same boss... which was incorrect. The correct answer is below, of course. Now, I'm going to respond to reviews by starting with a guest who forgot to put a name in, which I'm guessing was actually The Drone: Thank you for your warm wishes, but you've never played AlttP? Wow, umm... AlttP was the very first video game that I had ever played, so yeah. That's why I picked such an obscure item from it. *sweatdrop* Either way, I think that you're thinking of Stallord from TP. Well, it's not that. Despite how awesome of a boss fight that was, it'd be pretty hard to manage three Links trying to fight that thing without a spinner, so yeah. Also, it didn't even cross my mind because I actually like the thing that I did choose better. Finally, when you posted the review, I had just started hero mode with having collected all of the maiamais (pronounced my-a-my). By now, though, I've done a 100% run of hero mode... except for the heart pieces. -_- Anyway, I hope you enjoy the fight.
Now, to Kagu the Great: It is horrible to lose someone that close to you. However, I'm glad that your thanksgiving was good. Just because I'm going through hard times doesn't mean that anyone else has to. If you do write, then I'd like to read it. ;) Okay, I won't put anything in the fic that might spoil ALBW until the chapters that come after the new year. Also, as far as the chapter names go, I totally understand. I will stop making dungeon items chapter names. However, the bosses are a bit different. You see, I barely even know what I'm doing with the chapter names anymore because I already have SO FLIPPIN' MANY! Also, they let people who want to go back and read them later have a bit of a landmark, so to speak. I completely understand, but sometimes, without naming the chapter after them, it would be very difficult to ascertain what the links are fighting because I don't like describing how things look too much. (that's what's lead to so many failed stories that simply hit the trash can) Besides, the bosses have their own set of chapters while the items are just stuck in there with the dungeon, so that's why I'm going to do it like that. I'm practically begging that you understand! *sigh* Finally, I know that you already know what the boss is, but don't worry, the drone guessed the same thing, so yeah.
Now, I'd just like to say that while typing this, I listened to Theophany's remix of this boss' theme on youtube. Look it up if you want to. Anyway, here's chapters 40-42:
Chapter 40: Molgera
Sand splayed everywhere from the center of the room as something absolutely huge jumped out! I looked up to it only to see a giant worm-snake thing that had a massive mouth (compared to its body size) that opened vertically. The rest of its body had dark brown and very sharp looking scales and a small, split-tipped end of its tail. Not to mention that it had two glowing green eyes on each side of its head, just behind its mouth. I looked over to the other two Links only to see that they were staring wide-eyed at this thing, obviously scared to the death of it.
What was the most surprising about this thing, though, was the fact that it was a digging creature, -meant for underground- but it was flying above our heads. Eventually, it dug back into the sand at the center of the room with a loud crash and another splay of sand. This snapped the other two Links out of their shock, so we began to devise a strategy. However, we soon realized that it was way ahead of us as the sand underneath our feet began to dip.
All three of us immediately ran off in the same direction, but a tiny version of the big thing immediately popped out of the sand and hit me square-on. The knockback seemed to be just enough for the giant one to try and snatch me up, but knight Link came to the rescue by launching a particularly violent fire arrow at it. After I scrambled away, I turned around, wondering exactly what it was that he had hit. What I saw sink back into the sand last was its supposed tongue which the end of was glowing a slightly brighter green than its eyes. If that didn't scream 'HIT ME', then I didn't know what did.
Out of nowhere, knight Link snapped his fingers and claimed that he had suddenly remembered a couple of stories about this thing (apparently, none of them spoke of a weakness) that called it 'Molgera'. Future Link shrugged, obviously figuring that if it had a name, then it would only be easier to talk about, nothing more. We were then broken out of our thoughts by Molgera trying again to get us. This time, though, when the three of us ran away, we each made sure to draw our swords and impale the mini-molgera that went after us.
As soon as we got a safe distance away, knight Link did a 'one-eighty', as future Link called it, and shot it with an ice arrow, making it retreat until the ice melted! Meanwhile, it sent many mini-molgeras at us. The other two were having a tough time with them, but \I discovered that they were practically powerless against my hookshot and me, so I ended up taking most of them out, myself. I was thanked by the other two Links before Molgera burst out of the sand and flew upwards again!
Knight Link immediately tried to coax it back into the sand by yelling at it and making obnoxious noises. Before long, it dove for him and he donned his vanish cape in order to confuse it. Seeing as there were footsteps in the sand near where Molgera had crashed down, both future Link and I could tell that knight Link had got away. Future Link then made a mad dash over to where we assumed knight Link to be and he began explaining something to him. Apparently, it only made sense that if it couldn't visually see from underground, then it knew where knight Link was, even if he had the vanish cape on.
Figuring that future Link was right, knight Link took off his vanish cape and started devising a plan. He told me to lag slightly behind future Link and him so that they would be able to take care of the mini-molgera while I used my hookshot on Molgera's tongue. I was about to express my concern regarding this risky move, but the sand underneath our feet began to sink, telling us that it was time to RUN! Thankfully, things went just as planned, seeing as when I launched my hookshot at Molgera's tongue, the hookshot brought the tongue to me instead of it being the other way around.
Immediately, knight Link started to go absolutely crazy with attacks on it. It only took a fraction of a second for future Link and me to join in. Honestly, it was pretty hard to tell what exactly was going on. Suddenly, though, I noticed Molgera's mouth twitching like it was about to snap closed. Without thinking, I grabbed the other two Link and pulled them back just in time.
Afterward, we heard a bit of a roar. Obviously, Molgera was pissed off! Thankfully, we managed to stay roughly ahead of it for a while. Even when it leapt out of the sand and flew around, we were lucky enough to be able to run out of the way in time… or so I thought. Seeing knight Link only about two feet away from me, a question creeped into my mind. Where was future Link?
