Chapter Eighteen: Runaway Rabbit
Father was relieved to have his children back. "Oh Father, we missed you so much." The Delight Children from Down the Lane said hugging him.
"I missed you all." Father said. "I hope they didn't hurt you."
"No, they didn't." They said. "I thought you wouldn't get us. I thought you love Zelda more than us."
"Oh children, you are all my precious treasure. You are all priceless to me." He said. "No one can replace you my delightful children."
"But what about Zelda?"
"She is my niece and she taught me how wonderful a life of a father can be." Father said.
"But Father, she is going to die."
"No she is not, my children you know your father is not all that good." He said, letting out a chuckle. "I am a bad guy and a bad guy doesn't play fair."Good luck Zelda…
Zelda raced through the halls, making her way to the main room. "That girl sure can run." Negative Chad said, watching her through the monitors. "I wonder if she can actually fight."
"Why are you not at your post Chad?" Negative Zelda snapped.
"I am going but I don't think I need to. She won't get too far." He replied. "Unless you are worried…" A laser beam raced towards him. He nodded his head to the left and dodged it. "Oh you miss my Mistress. You were this close of getting my head though."
"You're fucking pissing me off Chad." Negative Zelda snapped. "This girl is no threat."
"Yes that's why I am here." He replied.
"Do you think Zelda has a chance?" Richard asked. "I mean we are talking about a former agent who has been out of the game far too long."
"What choice do we have?" Ruby said. "I believe Zelda can do this."
"Still, I am still worried about her. She is by herself." Gwen said.
"Come on, if she can beat me in her sleep she can do this." Johnny said.
"We just need to have faith in her." Maurice said.
"She would do fine." Cree said.
Zelda made it to a room. Waiting for her was Negative Maurice. "Whoa, seeing the positive Zelda makes me feel lustful especially with the outfit she got on." He said, smiling. "So my pet, do you really want to do this? If you give in to me and be my slave, I will give you mercy and also the best time of your life."
"You must be Negative Maurice. The Maurice I know is faithful to his girlfriend and treats girls with respect." Zelda said.
"Ah yes, but why be attach to one girl if you can have all the girls in the world." He replied.
"I hope Zelda kicks his ass." Cree said, staring at the screen. She then turned to Maurice. "No offense…"
"None taken… I don't like my negative either." Maurice said, gritting his teeth.
"So what will it be my pet?" Negative Maurice asked.
"I guess I am fighting you." She said. "It is kind a hard since you look like one of my friends."
"Aww… how innocent and honest… You are definitely still a virgin." He said, smiling mischievous. "I can't wait to defile your body."
"Defile? Ah… What does that mean?" She asked, staring at him with a baffle look. He let out a chuckle.
"I am going to strip your innocence and fuck you hard." He said.
"Ahh…not following…" She said, looking more confused.
"I AM GOING TO HAVE SEX WITH YOU, IDIOT!" He screamed.
"Oh… That actually makes sense." She said, scratching her head.
"Hey Chad, what is sex?" Nigel asked. Chad blushed in front of him. "Why are you all red?"
"It is a grownup thing." He mumbled. Damn, I would never expect to explain sex to this person. This is so uncomfortable. "It makes you older."
"Oh yuck, I don't want to do anything that is meant for grownup." Nigel said, sticking out his tongue. Chad let out a sigh and turned back to the battle. "ZELDA, YOU BETTER NOT HAVE SEX WITH THAT GUY!" Everyone that was in the cage with him either face palm themselves or laughed.
"I am going to have fun with you." Negative Maurice said, smiling.
"But we can't do that." Zelda said.
"Why?" He asked.
"Well, you belong to Cree and it would be weird to do it with you. Also I have a boyfriend so it would be unfair to him if I do it with you." Zelda said, putting some thought in to it. "What do you call it? Oh yes, it is call cheating."
"I don't belong to anyone." Negative Maurice said.
"So you are not dating Cree in your world?" She asked.
"I am not looking for a relationship. Relationships are for losers. It is too much work." He said. "But one night stands and blissful sex takes the cake don't you think?"
"But you won't feel anything right?" She asked. "You won't feel any love."
"Love is overrated. It is easy to fall in love but so hard to get out of it." He protested. "Love ruins everything." He then disappeared.
"What the…" She said, looking all over the place. Where did he go? He was just in front of me a minute ago.
"He is using camouflage mode just like he did to kidnap us." Hoagie said.
"LOOK OUT ZEDDY!" Kuki screamed.
"I hope Zelda can beat this cruddy teenager." Wally said.
"Number 5 believes in her." Abby said, smiling. "She is infinite after all."
"So what are you going to do?" Negative Maurice said, sneaking behind her. "You can't do anything if you can't see me." He blew into her ear and she swiftly swung her fist towards him but he dodges it. He started chuckling. "You miss." He then moved in front of her and lifted her skirt. She kicked and he dodged it again. "White panty… how boring…"
"Fucking pervert…" Chad said, holding his nosebleed and blushing. Why of all days she has to wear a skirt?
"ZELDA, STAY FOCUS!" Nigel screamed. Why does she have to wear a skirt?
"I guess I took a bad day of wearing a skirt." Zelda said, scanning the room once more. Well, I guess I have no choice. She dropped her duffle bag to the ground and pulled out black gloves. She put it on and took a deep breath. Let's see if I still got it. She started running all over the room.
What the hell is she doing? Negative Maurice thought. "Running like a rabbit is not going to help you."
"What a desperate act? She thinks if she runs around, she would bump into Maurice." Negative Zelda said, laughing. "She is such an idiot."
"Why is Zelda running around? Ruby said.
"I don't know." Johnny said. Zelda was running and jumping all over the place. "She is prancing everywhere." He then turned to Chad. He found him smiling along with Nigel. "Hey, do you guys know what's going on here?"
"You will see." Chad said.
"Yeah…" Nigel said.
Negative Maurice tried to attack her but she was too fast. She is fast I give her that. He thought. When then stopped where her duffle bag was at and stood there for a brief moment.
"That's a lot of running." She said, unbuttoning her top. "It is so hot." She flicked her hair. "I thought I could find him."
This is my chance. Negative Maurice thought. She is all mine… When he got close to her, he froze. "What the…"
"I was wondering where you are?" Zelda said. She fiddled her fingers and Negative Maurice appeared. "There you are."
"WHAT?!" Negative Zelda screamed. "HOW THE HELL DID SHE DO THAT?!"
"Whoa, Zelda got him." Gwen said.
"ATTA GIRL Z!" Cree cheered.
"How did you…" Negative Maurice said. He then noticed her fingers. There were strings attached to it. "That is why you ran around the room. You were placing a trap for me."
"A rabbit has lucky feet." She said, giggling.
"It is one of Infinite's favorite weapons, the Strong Thin Rope Incase No Game." Chad said. "She always uses it when she fights opponents with invisibility abilities."
"And she still got it." Nigel said, smiling.
"So tell me where I have to go." She said, fiddling with her fingers once more. It made him fall on his knees. "I am in a tight schedule so please tell me."
"Just go straight but you would meet two of my other operatives before you get to your negative self. You may have tricked me but that is not going to work on the others. You won't even get to my Mistress." He said. I can't believe I was outsmarted by a girl…Just like before… Damn it.. "So what are you going to do with me?" She stared at him for a brief moment.
"You were hurt by a girl before that is why you are treating a girl as a thing." Zelda said. "Because you are afraid to get hurt again… You don't want your heart to be attached to another girl."
"You don't know anything about me." He snapped. She forced him to stand up. He then started dancing. "WHAT THE HELL YOU ARE DOING TO ME?" She let out a giggle and started singing.
Head, shoulders, knees, and toes
Knees and toes X2

Negative Maurice was doing all the actions and it irritated him more. "You sure can move Maurice." She teased again. "Do it again?"
"You are going to get it when I get out of these strings." He snapped. These strings are tough. Every time I try to break free, I get hurt. What a sneaky weapon. She then let him sit down on the floor. She stared at him for a brief moment. "What are you looking at?"
"I am sorry for the pain you have gone through but you shouldn't let that destroy yourself. You are still stuck in the past and I think it is time to move on in a better path instead of being cold and bitter. Everyone deserves happiness and love even my negative self." She said.
"Our data was right about you. You are too nice. You expect everyone to be good but really it is all an illusion." He said. "It is stupid. You shouldn't trust people."
"Your right but what is the point if you don't trust anyone. You will still be alone." She said. "Trusting someone is a risk and I have my fair share of trusting people that hurt me but it helps me be strong. You can't be strong if you are still full of hatred."
"Be strong…" He said.
"Sometimes being strong doesn't mean muscle. It also means your heart." She said, smiling. "But it is nice meeting you Negative Maurice. I would love to chat but I have to save the people that matters to me." She then walked away.
"HEY GET BACK HERE!" He screamed. Zelda left the room and he let out a sigh. Damn, that girl read me like a book. How did she know that I got hurt? He gritted his teeth and tried to break free. I can't believe it… He let out another sigh. "That girl is such an idiot."
"She is smart." Negative Chad said, smiling. "I am starting to like this girl." He then turned to Chad. "So you don't mind if I pull out her heart?"
"I mind a lot psycho." Chad said, glaring at him. Negative started chuckling.
"So she is your girlfriend in this world right?" He said, walking back to the cage.
"Curiosity kills the cat you know." Chad said.
"But satisfaction brought it back." Negative Chad said. Chad turned to the screen and stared at Zelda running through a hall. "Does she love you to death?"
"CHAD, GO TO YOUR POST NOW!" Negative Zelda screamed.
"Yes Mistress…" Negative Chad said.
"What was that about?" Maurice asked.
"I don't know." Chad said. Could it be that he really loves Negative Zelda? He watched his negative self bowed in front of Negative Zelda. She looked away from him but there was a slight blush on her cheeks. She likes him too. What is going on here?
"If I can make a hypothesis, it has seems that Negative Chad and Zelda used to be lovers." Maurice pointed out. "However, they still love each other. Negative Zelda pushes him away while he tries his best to get her back."
"But the question is why is she pushing him away?" Cree asked. "And also why is she doing this?"
"She said something about a perfect world." Nigel said. "That it is only possible if Zelda is out of the picture."
"But why do it here?" Richard said. "Why not do it in her world?"
"All I know is that Zelda can stop her." Chad said. Come on babe, you got this. Zelda stopped and found a cam-bot hovering around her. She stared at it.
"Ah, if you are watching this my negative self, I want you to know that if you lay a hand on my family, friends, or my boyfriend I will personally give you a beating." She said, smiling. "So be careful." Negative Zelda gritted her teeth.
"DON'T GET COCKY! YOU DEFEATED ONE OF MY MINIONS!" She screamed.
"Actually I defeated three, have you forgotten about the first two that are tied up right now?" She said. "You are sneaky though, you are using my dearest friends for this."
"Why? You can't handle the heat." Negative Zelda teased.
"I can handle it. It is the concept that you are not here to stop me." She said. "You are hiding behind your minions."
"OH FUCK YOU! I CAN KILL YOU EASILY!" She snapped. Zelda let out a giggle. "What is so funny?"
"Back then I was so afraid of you but now, you are just too funny to me." She teased. "Did anyone tell you that you are cute when you are mad?" Negative Zelda blushed in front of her. "Awww… You are also so cute when you blush."
"YOU ARE TOTALLY GOING TO GET FROM ME!" Negative Zelda snapped. How dare she talk to me like this? She is supposed to hate me.
"I am looking forwards to it." She said. She started running through the halls.
