Me: hello again
Max: another legend of Zelda Fanfic chapter
Side note…I, I got nothin
I started to run up Death Mountain trail when I came across that same Goron who knocked me down before. He sees me and says, "Oh, you've returned, when will you realize your weak human spirit is no match for that of a goron." He rolled at me as I slipped into my iron boots. I grabbed onto the goron and threw him over my shoulders and watched it keep on rolling. I keep going up and find myself at the end of the trail after dodging archer bublins.
I look up and see a goron launch another to an entrance and realize that's where I need to go. I realize that my shield is how I'm going to get there. The only problem? The active volcano. I jump to the clearing when an eruption starts. 'Oh joy' I think 'A rousing game of dodge rock' when all of a sudden a huge rock almost falls on me. After it lands, Midna pops out and says, "So, this is the traditional Death Mountain welcome." I then hiss under my breath, "Speak for yourself." I then take of my shield and sword and walk up to a goron. Many gorons later, and I find myself at the entrance I saw when I got here.
I enter and find myself staring down a bunch of Gorons who attempt to run me down when a voice calls out, "HEY!" all attention turns to an entrance I presume to the Goron Mines and he continues saying, "Is this small one so imposing that we need to gang up on him, I think not little brothers." A small goron comes out of the entrance and looks at me and motions for me to come over to him. I walk over; in my iron boots might I add, to the head goron. He tells me he's just an elder and that I was forbidden to go inside the mines, which is where the spirits say I have to go. He then says if I can prove myself in a match of strength. Which I do, I guess it's safe to say I hate sumo wrestling, and he explains that the actual leader had touched the forbidden treasure, you should not touch forbidden items, transformed and with great regret, the elders had to lock up the chief. He then asks me on behalf of the tribe to save the patriarch, and I accepted because maybe, Max is rubbing off on me, because I feel the need to help those who couldn't help themselves.
I entered the mines only to find the mines in question are an active volcano. Midna pops up and says, "These are the mines or an active volcano, you tell me. You mean to tell me the gorons come in here like it's no big deal? Your just a mere human, one false step and your done." I answer here with, "Gee, and I thought that was really hot water." Midna gives me a look that shuts me up, that and the fact that the boss of this temple is a living inferno, but I shouldn't break the fourth wall like that should I.
I get through that room, much more adrenaline doing it for real then in the video game, doesn't help that I hate being underground. Goes with being a bird kid. I then realize that I should probably test my wings because I know I had them in wolf form (A/N my fault for not mentioning them till now, go ahead say it, I walked into it) I then give them a good stretch, they felt good to be spread out when Midna comes out and says, "Look, I hate to interrupt this…moment you're having with your wings, but we need to keep moving. I sigh, and fold my wings again and get moving.
I come into a rather large room with no ceiling. Now I know I'm going crazy, I didn't reach Death Mountain Summit until night, why is it daytime here? I know I'm supposed to get the key before entering the next room, but I realize that this is the perfect opportunity to test my wings. I take a running leap and unfurl them. I get the feeling I'd been missing for days. I land at the door that's up a little ways. I enter and go across to the other side and enter the room with the elder and receive the first shard of key to the boss room. I exit and keep moving. I fly to the next door and ignore the bublins as I enter the room. This next room was easy as I breeze through it, collecting the key and proceeding to the next elder who tells me of a treasure a little further and to talk to the guard. I seriously hope the guard isn't a pushover, make me work for something.
I enter a strange room and hear the familiar thud of a gate. I turn to find that the door has been sealed good and tight. I walk on to the platform and see the guard just as he sees me. He stands up and says, "Oh, what business does a human have coming in here, none. These grounds are sacred to the gorons, I will protect the treasure from you." He jumps on the platform knocking it into the lava. I'm glad to finally have a challenge. He comes over to me I put on my iron boots and use my sword to slash the large goron's belly the goron starts to spin at me but I grab him and toss him in the lava. This happens twice more before the mask he's wearing comes off and he looks at me and says, "That really hurt, perhaps you are here to save the patriarch?" I say, "Uh, duh." The goron raises the lava level somehow, if I weren't the cool type I'd be amazed. The goron continues, "With moves like that even the Patriarch can be brought back to his senses, take the hero's weapon and save the Patriarch."
*time skip due to laziness*
I am standing in front of the boss chamber and realize, I don't want to do this. I mean after the last boss, I could've died, but I realize that if I'm to get out of this world and back to my own world I need to defeat this boss and get the fused shadow. I enter and find a rather large beast, it looks nothing like the thing I fought in the video game for some reason. Then the thing wakes up and tries to attack me before realizing it's restrained and lights itself on fire. Now it looks like the thing I fought in the video game. I shoot an arrow at the glowing jewel on its forehead and grab the chain connected to one of the feet and pull while wearing the iron boots. The thing falls and I slip out of the iron boots run over to the thing and slash the jewel with my sword. I do this twice more except the last time I do an ending blow to be epic.
The monster transforms back into the patriarch and I'm rewarded with another fused shadow. Midna takes this from me and explains about Zant the king of shadows and how he abuses his tribe. And then says, "Not that your Max is any better, a carefree youth who lives a life of luxury, how does that teach discipline?" I very pointedly say, "Don't begrudge the circumstances of her life, she didn't choose it." Midna then says, "You're right, and I would never wish her harm, no as long as I get my hands on the fused shadow I'll be fine, finish up in here and I'll warp you out." I walk over to the patriarch, Darbus, as he stands up and says, "Where am I? My head, it hurts." I walk over to Midna who asks, "So, shall we go?" I nod and step into the portal. The feeling of disintegration returns.
