The Legend of Zelda--Vegenence Starts!

[lugia_2000]

Shadow wouldn't go berserk from the fall that occured, it would just scare the crap out of him, cause he'd have no one to be angry at.

Shadow
~~~~~~~

The Lizafols had fallen, and we prepared to move through the door. As we were about to step through, four hands popped up. They had bluish colored, rotting skin, and were about six feet high.
"Dexihands!" I shouted. I had read about these. They were most often found underwater, dragging people toward their doom. We paired up again. Oddly enough, Maichi and I were partners again. The dexi hands could not move, but they still put up quite a fight. Our dexi hand thrashed violently, striking all within range. I smashed into it with the blunt of my sword, stunning it. During this time I seized my oppertunity.
"Check this out!" I shouted. I jumped high into the air and released a large stream of dark energy from my hands, blasting the hand back to where it came. The other three hands were not finished off yet, so I raced to help the others. Izumi and Maiku were distracting one hand by hitting it while quickly moving. The hand seemed confused and unable to hit them. I unexpectedly leapt forward, rending all of it's fingers. It's green blood spurted in all directions. A small globule landed on my and burnt a hole through my shirt.
"Ahhhhh!" I shouted. It stung alot.
"They're even more dangerous with no fingers!" Maiku shouted. As the hand leaned toward me to spray me with blood, I held my sword horizontally. Not only did this shield me from the blast, but it also coated my blade with the acid. I ducked down and slashed. Because of the poisons, it cleanly cut through the hand, destroying it.
"Two down, four to go!" Izumi said.

[COLOR=darkblue]It took a while,but we finally got the Lezafol to move.Suddenly,four dexi hands popped out.I remember learning about them from Shadow.We paired up again.Shadow and Maichu easily defeated theirs.Kisa and I shot differant things at ours,mine being stone and hers being a whirlwind."You know it's dead!" I commented.I quickly went to help the others.

[SmearGal]

So its Dexihands? X-x';; gah, haven't played LoZ in forever...I'll edit my post.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kurayami

I advanced to the next Dexihand, sword ready. "Euck, I hate these things already." I commented to myself. Puck and Kisa approached mine, but I wasn't going to let them have it...

"Mine," I told them, and I swung my sword towards its base, slicing it off at its bottom. Quickly, I mumbled the spell for Pressure Bubbles, (as it appeared our magic worked again) and it quickly consumed the stub and crushed it in pressure.

One hand left, and our group made short work of it.

"That was something I don't want to do again." Shadow growled, and massaged his shoulder where the acidic blood had burnt through.

The bars surrounding our doors lifted, and we were now able to move onto the next room.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Would've been longer, but my timer just rang, and I've been on the computer for a total of. . .5 hours. *rubs eyes* Buh-bai...*snores*

[Arnen]

~^*Seylan*^~

I decided to take on a Dixihand on my own. Stupid idea, huh? I approached one of the hands, Soulcutter drawn. An arctic wind whipped up, making the creepy thing sway. I walked over, sung my sword up and--got grabbed. The fist closed around my waist as I was swung back and forth. After several passes I was swung into the chamber wall, HARD.

"Ow..." I groaned, looking up. I could've sworn that thing was WAVING at me! Growling, I seized my weapon, which lay nearby, and pulled out my chain. I threw the chain at it, commanding it to grow spikes. It hit the Dixihand, which fell backward. It was nailed to the floor. I hacked at it with my sword till there was nothing left but a gorey pile of bones and yellow blood. Grinning triumphantly, I yanked my chain out of the ground and wiped Soulcutter's blade off on my tunic.

[FireMaster]

Hiro, Fire
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"HALT!!!" The guards said as they charged over. There must've been 30 of them all with long pikes and they were all pointed at me. "What Bussiness Do you have at our village!! We do not welcome trouble making ruffians like yourself!"

"HEY! How can you possible judge me. I just got here what, 2 seconds ago. Listen Im just here to drop this little girl off to her mother, then I am off to join my friends but, thats none of your business. Now let me pass!" I said Determined to get in.

The guards stared around and then stepped aside letting us in. The obivously weren't use to getting told off by anyone. I trotted in on The horse and began to head back farther into the village.

"There!!" Mary said jumping off the horse. "Thats My Mammas House!" she said as she ran over to the house.

I dismounted and ran over to Mary. We waited and a Older Woman came to the door. When Mary saw her she jumped into her arms and they both began to cry.

"Oh boy." I said to myself "I hate these touchy feely things. About 2 minutes later The woman put Mary down and turned to me.

"Are you responsible for bringing Mary back to me alive?!" She asked.

"Well um ya I guess"

"Then I owe you everything!" She said about to Cry. Is there anything I can do for you in return I will give you whatever I can. Gold, Jewels, Swords, Horses, Armor, anythin just name it.

"No no mam I wont accept anyth... Did you say Horses???"

"Why yes" she said very proudly. I have one of the best Stable full of horses on the contient and the one your riding is one of the fastest.

"Well.." I started " Horse's would help very much and I would really like it if you could um let me have some so me and my friends could um make our journey faster..."

"Journey" The Woman asked puzzled "What do you mean?"

"well its a very long story" I started

"well come in then sit down you can tell me all about it" She said as she led me inside. We sat down and I told her all about how Gannondorf had gotten ahold of the majoras mask and everything that had happened in the last few days. "Wow!!" She said have scared half supprised. "I thought that Majoras Mask and gannondorf had both been destroyed..."

'Well... They were but, Link didn't seal them up right. SO the mask was able to revive Gannondorf."

"Well" She began "I would be honored to let you have to Horses but, I need to know how many people you are traveling with."

"Well.." I said as I counted in my head(Ok this is gonna be wrong but, whatever. we can adjust it later) "Um... 10 I believe"

"Hmm... Ok" She said "They will be ready to go in about a hour. Oh and when you meet your friends. Make sure that they do not pick the horses, the horses will pick them." She said. "Well you should have something to eat before you go. I will whip something up really quick!"

I went to the table where Mary was and sat down. "Um Hiro..." Mary started to ask. "What will you name your horse. She needs a name huh?

"I sat for a minute and thought.... hmm I know.. NightBlaze." I said proudly

"Why will you name her that??" Mary asked

"Becasue during the night we were really Blazing Across the plains weren't we?"

"hehehehe I get it" mary said gigglying.

After we ate I headed outside and mounted onto NightBlaze and behind me came out 9 other horses that looked in as good of shap as NightBlaze did. I quickly waved to the woman and Mary and said "good bye. I will see you guys again some day!" and I kicked NightBlaze swiftly and lightly and we began to run out of the town. I looked behind me and the other horses were following me close behind. We got out of the gate and Mary was running behind laughing her head off yelling "G'bye Mr. hiro!!" over and over

We were really making good time. It was nice being able to ride straight on throughout the night without having to stop to sleep and eat. I rode on for about 4 hours when I saw the town where I orginally Began. I rodeup and stopped. The horses wouldn't be able to gallop here so we took it slow and followed the tracks left by Shadow and everyone else. We followed them for about a ½ of mile when I saw a HUGE pair of Doors Covered in Snow. and the tracks led into the cavern. I led the horses over by the entrance and had them wait together. I hurriedly gathered some wood and started a nice Fire so the Horses Wouldn't Freeze. The Horses Laid down.

"Now stay here guys. I will be back with the others shortly." I said

I then looked off into the cave. Then I Took my Swords out and ran into the Cavern " SHADOW!!!!!!!!!!!" I yelled "WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU GUYS!!!" Then I listen while I ran for a responce

[lugia_2000]

Oy! Horses don't lie down. They can't. They sleep standing up.
-_-"

Shadow
~~~~~~~

We went through the doorway, into the next room. For once, there were no monsters. Or at least, not visible ones. There were millions of dissapearing and reappearing tiles lining the floors. They were very large, and one wrong move would sent someone plummetng toward their doom.
"Can't you just halt them?" Seylan asked Maichi, looking a bit nervous.
"We cant. Magic won't work here." She replied. Seylan gulped, but bounded forward. I closely followed. I hopped across each tile, looking for solid ground. There were a few occassions when I almost slipped, but I made it to a peice of land. Unfortuiantely, I got to a different place than the others.
"The door's locked!" Kisa shouted in disbelief. I looked at where I was, on an opposite ledge. There was a chest at my foot. I opened it up, and snatched from within it a tiny golden key. I threw it as far as I could. Maiku managed to catch it, and opened it door. He peeked inside.
"AAAAAHHHHHHHH!!! Shut it shut it shut it!!!!" Puck shouted. The group closed the door, a look of horror upon their faces. I hopped over to see what was the matter.
"It's huge!" (don't mean to sound suggestive here. -_-") Seylan shouted.
"What is?!" I asked. They slowly opened the door. Inside was the hugest beast I had ever seen.
~~~~~~~~
Someone else make up the dungeon boss...this is a sorta short dungeon w/o much in it.

[VirtualPlay]

Well, I kinda related the magic loss to that first room only, but it worked in the next room. Gonna find that magic works in the boss room.

Maiku
~~~~~~~~
It was very large. It was very ugly. And it was downright evil.

It looked like a 20-foot long, slime-green millipede. It had millions of small tendrils that it used to move around, and instead of just an end to the front, it had nasty, 5-foot long teeth. It had no eyes or nose, but it seemed to notice us all the same. It charged. Quickly, we closed the door again as he hit the wall with a huge 'THUMP'.

"Do we really have to go through it?" Maichi asked, trembling.

"Yeah, we gotta," Shadow replied. "The other door's locked."

Carefully, we opened the door again. The beast was crawling around another part of the sand-covered floor. We started going in, when we heard shouts from the previous room.

"Where are you guys!! Shadow!!" It was Hiro! The other door opened somehow and Hiro walked through. "There you-"

"DON'T LET IT-" the door closed, with the bars falling down again, "-close…" we finished.

"Let what…oh…" he noticed the door. Nimbly, he jumped the panels to the ledge we were on. "So, what're we waiting for?"

We opened the door slightly, letting him look in. "That," I said.
~~~~~~~~

Meh…I just had the idea for what the boss should be. I call it "Slime Worm: Hidden Horror" just so you know. (Just like Odolwa is "Masked Jungle Warrior: Odolwa")

[lugia_2000]

Hidden Horror's good.

Shadow
~~~~~~~

The worm swished it's head from left to right, and then burrowed deep underground. I felt a rumbling beneath my feet, and figured that it was going to pop up at me from underground. I leapt to the side, and it just grazed my leg. I was sent about a yard forward just from it touching me. It hurt a bit, but I was allright. The beast reared up on it's hind legs.
"There!" Kurayami shouted. The beast was exposing a dull red spot near its torso. I seized the moment.
"Hiro!" I shouted. I made an X sign with my fingers. He nodded.
"X strike!!!" We shouted in unison. I dashed to the left and Hiro dashed to the right. We made an X shaped formation as we dashed toward it. It noticed us, and covered the spot with it's legs. We did connect however, and severed six legs. The horror squealed in pain, and went into a headlong dash for Hiro and I. It smashed into me, then Hiro. We were sent hurdling into the air, and smashed into the ceiling. I coughed up a mouth full of blood as I landed. The beast continued around the room, smahing Maiku, then Maichi, then Izumi. Things looked grim. Suddenly, a mysterious blue light surrounded kurayami. She grew wings, then horns, then scales, and finally grew twenty times her original size. She had turned into a huge blue dragon.

[Tyler and Hobbes]

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After the whole dexi incadent I was ready to leave,but we continued to the next room.It was filled with moving panels and had a box in the middle.We opened it I said,"Close it!Close it!Clse it!"There was some sort of worm in it with large fangs."Shadow!Shadow!"someone called out.It was HiroWe quickly closed the door.

The worm moved its head everywhere.Hiro and Shadow made an x-shape and wounded it.It attacked them and Maichi,Izumi,and Maichu."Izumi!Shadow!"I called out."Die you big freak!''I said turning half of it to stone.Suddenly Kurayami changed.

Edituck gets stronger when he is mad.

[Haruko]

I know I skipped out about 1 1/2 rooms, ut I Didn't wanna mess up, and I was at the mall yesterday..(Hug's her Valentine Patch(101 Dalmations) Plushie..

~~~~~~~~~~~~
Izumi
~~~~
"Bahh!"I said, when the centipide monster hit me,Maichi and Maiku...

I just lyed there, with my eye's left a little open..

"Whaaaaa..?"I whispered in the voice I had. Kurayami started to glow in a Faint blue light, growing Horns, scales, wings, and then Grew a lot more..

She Transformed to a Dragon...how weird..
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Short....Bahhh.

[SmearGal]

lugia_2000 - Not to seem rude... but actually, horses CAN sleep on the ground. Cows sleep standing up, but horses can, and most of the time will sleep sitting on the ground. X-x';; Texans gotta know these things...

Fwah, XD Mesa Draconian now...XD!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kurayami

The horrid monster squealed, as six of its legs thudded to the ground, then went into a rampage, charging down my fellow teammates, and tossing them across the dungeon as if they were dolls.

It turned to me, eyes burning in fury. It was a grim scene, and I knew I had only one choice...

Sheathing my sword, I concentrated, mumbling the proper spell...Wings sprouted from my back, horns from atop my head, claws replaced my hands, and a tail came out of nowhere. Slowly, I grew, my size doubling...tripling...meanwhile, scales glittered as they appeared.

The monster backed up apprehensively, as I spread out my wings to their fullest. My sight, hearing, and ... Oh boy was my strength increased. I could hear mumbles of astonishment coming from near the ground.

I hissed, crouching low near the ground, ready to pounce upon the monster...waiting for it to make the first move...

Before I could react, the gigantic worm burrowed underground for another attack from below. I quickly moved aside, waiting for it to come back up. Quickly, I spoke to my comrades, who by now were standing shakily upon their legs.

Listen, when the worm comes up, I'll grab him. Use that opportunity to attack his weak spot while I have him held.

They nodded, grabbing their weapons to be ready for the moment to attack.

The monster shot out of the ground, and I pounced, digging my claws deep into its skin, spreading my wings for leverage as it frantically wiggled.

NOW!! I yelled.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
XP I'll let you guys take care of that, 'kays?

[FireMaster]

Oops I guess they don't lie down do they Um I wasn't exactly caught up with you guys yet but, I suppose i will post that now eh?
~~~~~~~~~~~

I ran through the cave listening for a response. Then I heard just what I needed to Hear.

"SHUT IT, SHUT IT, SHUT IT!!!! I heard puck yell. I looked over and it was coming through the open door... Go figure.

I ran throught the door and on the ground were dead Lizafos. I continued on to a room with dead Dexihands. Then to a door with a wierd symbol on it. I figured it was the Dungeon leader. I ran to the door and twisted the key that was still lodged into it. I opened the Door and Ran in "Hey!" I yelled and looked up at the milipede. I looked at Shadow and he yelled my name

Then he held up an X with his Fingers.
"X STRIKE !" We both yelled And Charged the milipede with an X shape. The Milipede noticed and tried to Guard but, we hit and severed several of its legs. The Beast the charged us and knocked us up very hard into the celling. I landed on my back and It hurt for sometime but, I was able to get up when I saw the Milipede heading towards me with its Teeth reared.

After I got up I went over to where Shadow was.

"Comeon Shadow get up. We need to finish this thing!" I said as I helped him to his feet

[lugia_2000]

Darnit...foiled again! I thought horses stood up...oh well...-_-"

Shadow
~~~~~~~

Upon recieving a healing spell, I was back up and ready to go. Kurayami flew into the air and pinned the beast. Its tendrils were outstretched, trying to flip back over.
"Take this!!!" I shouted. With a wave of my hand, my sword was surrounded in a black aura. I plunged it deep into the beast's weak spot. Kurayami was spewing blue flames at it's face. All of our group, excluding Kurayami, plunged their weapons deep into the area. The beast curled up into a ball. The battle was won.
....or was it?
It unrolled again, completely healed.
"What?!?" I shouted in disbelief.
'

[Arnen]

OoC: Ha! You been FOILED! *maniacle laughter* MuHaHaHa!!! Eheh, I already knew that; my uncle has horses at his farm, and I seen 'em sleep before.

~^*Seylan*^~

"*A@$*%(D<AF#@$(!!!" I swore loudly. How could this thing keep coming back?! Deciding to try something, I turned to the others. "You may want to step back a bit," I informed them. They did so. Quickly, I pulled a dagger out of a hilt up my sleeve, then whipped it at one of the monster's eyes. It shrieked, green blood spraying everywhere (drawing groans of disgust from the girls). Then I unsheathed Soulcutter and planted the tip of the blade into the sand.

An arctic wind began whirling around the area. My eyes flashed blue for a second before shards of ice, large and sharp as daggers, joined the wind, biting at the gargantuan beast. Droplets of blood bled from newly-opened wounds, as my storm began to decrease in intensity. I was losing energy. Then, quite suddenly, the storm subsided. But I didn't see. For I had blacked out.

[SmearGal]

XD Yah, I used to think that, too, but then I moved here, and everyone and there dog kept saying I was wrong. XD!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kurayami (Dragon Form)

Standing back, I watched Seylan magically create an arctic wind, along with icicles, and attack the beast from all sides. The worm flailed and wriggled in pain, blood splattering from its new wounds.

Suddenly, drained of energy, Seylan blacked out, and fell to the ground. The monster shook itself angrily, and charged at the fainted form of Seylan.

This was enough. Springing up in the air, I flapped my wings, trying to stay airborne in the precious space between the floor and the ceiling. Aiming carefully, I folded my wings, and plummeted upon the rampant worm, digging my claws into its back. It squealed again, and its head flung upward, in which I took the opportune moment to grab its..."neck" with my teeth. Again, my wings spread to steady myself, as I pulled it in a way to show its weakness again. My comrades knew the drill, and they hurried forward, slashing mercilessly as the worm wriggled in pain. Izumi ran to Seylan, healing him and waking him up.

The monster shuddered, and I felt it go weak beneath my claws. It drooped miserably, and its many legs still twitched, as it still wiggled every now and then trying to free itself from my grasp.

"It's still ALIVE?!" everyone yelled angrily.

Keeping my hind-claws firmly in its back, let go of its head, and pretty much stood on it.

Uhh...yeah, you guys may not want to watch this... I told them, and I did an almost comical form of cutting of my head. Unless this thing can regrow bones.

As I dragged its bloodied body across the dungeon floor, a couple of people turned, but the boys mostly watched. I again grabbed its neck, whispered I'm sorry, and pulled. The monster screeched in pain, but I continued to pull and twist, knowing any second....

CrrrAAAAACK!! the sound echoed (unfortunately) throughout the dungeon. The girls shuddered, including myself, as I let go of it and backed away. Suddenly, the dungeon glowed in a bright light, and out of nowhere appeared a giant treasure-chest.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
XP Yuckers. Should I mention Kurayami would rather not bite off the head of a giant icky worm? XD!

[Haruko]

~~~~~~~
Izumi
~~~
I got out my bow and Arrow,making sure to pick the sharpest one out of the bunch..
'Ah.'I thought to myself. I was keeping quiet in a corner, since my throat got very soar, quick..


The beast suddenly curled up in a ball after Kurayami's attack and are weapon's hitting target..

All of the sudden, it got up again, better than ever..
Seylan got really mad, saying something I covered my ear's for. I heard that a lot. Not nice...

I took a couple of back steps, seeing Seyal taking out a Dagger..

~~~~~~~~

[Arnen]

OoC: Blech! Who would?

~^*Seylan*^~

"What'd I miss?!" I cried, sitting up suddenly to see Izumi standing over me.

"See for yourself," she said, pointing over her shoulder at Kurayami mangling the worm. I grabbed my sword, which was still sticking straight up out of the sand, and used it to steady myself as I stood up.

Kurayami was now strangling the worm, although it still twitched occasionally. "IT'S STILL ALIVE?!?!" I yelled. How in the Giants' names could it still be living?!

CRRRRAAAACCKK! The sound of the beast's neck being broken echoed throughout the dungeon, drawing another "Eeeew!" from the girls. There was a flash, and sddenly a chest, an overly-large chest, appeared.

"Shall we open it?" I asked.

[Tyler and Hobbes]

Puck

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After we hit it it curled up into a ball and got better again.Seylan said some stuff that might have scared Izumi.Seylan got his sword and dagger.I got my daggers ready incase he needed backup.He slashed and used his magic.He was a great fighter,better than me anyway.I stuck my dagger in its head and it got wounded.Enough for it to die?Just incase I stuck my other one in and I swung on its back.It kicked me off and Kurayami in dragon form strangled it.

[lugia_2000]

Shadow
~~~~~~~~~

Finally, the beast was down, and would probably stay down. I walked toward the newly formed treasure chest and kicked it open. I felt like screaming at what I saw.
"Another key?!?!" I shouted.
"Aggghhhh!!!" I shouted in frusturation, kicking the chest. I grabbed the key, and proceded to a very elorately carved door made of ice. I fit the key in, and the ice shattered. I stepped thorugh. There was nothing in this room. Just an altar and a glowing purple crystal. I wanted to touch it, but didn't. When everyone had entered, The crystal exploded. Several energy streams erupted from it and flew into Seylan. He fell to the ground.
"Wha-what happened?" I asked. Seylan looked up at me.
"I-I feel....stronger." He replied. He stood up. His soulcutter blade looked longer, broader (too...much...suggestive...dialouge!), and more powerful. A strange blue aura now surrounded it.
"It's like...I've known all this stuff my whole life." Seylan said.
"What?" Izumi asked, confused.
"Impale!" Seylan shouted. A huge icicle shot out of the ground, far from the group.
"There are all these spells...it's like those beams transferred this new magic to me."
Seylan was right. I knew what he was saying. The crystal transferred new ice magic to him. He had never used that spell before. He had become stronger.
"That's what the giants meant!" I shouted.
"They meant that by collecting these crystals, we'd have the strength to destroy gannondorf!" I shouted. Upon saying this, I found myself back outside again. There were horses grazing.
"We're back out..." I said, smiling.
"Yeah." Said Maichi, looking happy. It was good to be out of there. I walked up to a horse.
"Oh yeah...about them." Hiro said.
"I got them for you, from the girl's mother."
I approached a horse. It was jet black, with a white mane and tail. It was bizzare and amazing at the same time. I jumped onto his back, and each other member also chose a horse.
"Where to next?" Maiku asked.
"Zora cape!!" Shouted nearly everyone at once. Zora cape was supposed to be awesome. Blue skies, clear blue seas, white sandy beaches...It would be a great vacation spot, and besides, the aqua temple was there.

[Twizzler0171]

(Sorry, my fault. Horses sleep either way.)

Kisa--
I stared at the sword, and then calmly walked out. As I recieved my horse, a white Arabian Mare, I smiled as the perfect name formed in my head. "Hello, Windstorm." I said. Windstorm nickered softly, nuzzling her face against mine. I laughed. Windstorm stood up, a little clumsily I thought, and I glanced up and down at her. As Arabians go, she was pretty tall.

[Tyler and Hobbes]

Puck

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After Seylan got his new abilities I asked him to try them on me for a practice run.I made a mistake by saying that.

The ice almost went threw me.If I hadn't levitated it would have."Whaa!"I called out in distress."Sorry."Seylan said laughing.I knew he wasn't that sorry,but it brought a smile to everyones face.When I got over the shock I herd Hiro say the horses were for us.A horse came up to me.He was gray with a tint of black and had a black mane."I think I'll call you Jett!"

We all decided to go to Zora Cape.That sounded good I needed a rest.

[Twizzler0171]

Kisa--
"Careful!" I called almost getting hit by the blast, the only thing that saved me was an old tree. After awhile, we decided to go to Zora's Cape. I had been there before, but it was so long ago, I couldn't remember the details. Windstorm was fast, I knew that, though I hadn't made her gallop yet. Arabians are good at many things. Windstorm nickered, and I liked that. It was soft, and comforting.

[lugia_2000]

Ha! Told you! Un-foiled again! Muahahahahahahahahahahahaha*takes a deep breath*hahahahahahahahahahaha!

Shadow
~~~~~~~

Soul flame....I thought to myself. That's what I'd name my horse. He was oddly colored and reminded me of a pet I once had...
"Wait..." I mumbled to myself.
"I had a pet?"
I thought for a moment...it was as if a memory was transmitted to me just a little while ago...I felt like Seylan must have...it was like a new door opened up to me. Before I could remember until I was ten...now I could go back to seven...but nothing in between.
flash back time!

A young man stood by a fire, gazing into it deeply.
"Honey, do you really have to go off to war?" A woman asked.
"I...I must..." The man responded.
"I must fight to defend out country!" He said triumphantly. A tear slid down the woman's cheek.
"What if I never see you again?" She asked.
"You will...don't worry." He said with a soothing voice. Little boy resembling a young puck marched inward. He looked young...around four or five.
"Daddy," He began. "I'll miss you!"
He began to cry. Two more boys came onto the scene.
"W-we'll miss you!" They shouted. Tears welled up in their eyes.
"Seylan...Asher...don't cry..." The man said. He looked as if he might as well.
"I bought you guys something to keep you company. He's outside." The man said. The three boys rushed outside.
"Wow!" Puck shouted. There stood a magnificent dodongo. It was about seven feet long, four feet high, and gleamed with emerald scales. It had a large horn upon it's head, a mouth full of teeth, and a saddle on it's back.
"He's all yours." The man said. The three hugged him, and gave their words of thanks. They all went back inside. The man gazed at a clock.
"I...I have to go...the caravan is leaving to Gannondorf's keep soon." The man said. At this the woman ran up to embrace him.
"Oh...Taban!" She cried. She began to weep. The man hugged her as well, grabbed a bladed pole, and left.
I could not remember seeing him ever again.
~~~~~~~
I shook my head. Did the crystal do this? Perhaps they were unraveling the mysteries of my past...

~~~~~~~~
Well, I hope that revealed a nice chunk of the plot for you. ^_^
I had this planned for a while.

[Twizzler0171]

Kisa--

I looked at Shadow. His eyes were misty, as if he was thinking of something. I wish I could remember. "No..." I mumbled to myself. "I can't..." I didn't know why. "Well, shall we?" I asked aloud. I was jealous, jealous of everyone who knew their past.

[SmearGal]

X-x';; Yeah, I just a few minutes ago asked my mom about it, and she said they sleep either way...XD Sorry, but I'm still PARTIALLY correct!! XD!!

XP I've got a lot of stuff to go through...
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kurayami

Still shivering a bit, I slowly transformed back into human, ready to spit out whatever blood was left in my mouth. ((OOC: Anything like water, solid objects, or blood left on her dragon form are as if she had done that in her human form. IOW, she has bloody hands'n'a bloody mouth. XD!))

Gagging at the horrible taste, I spat out as much as I could, and hurriedly wiped my hands off on the bottom of my vest. "How lovely," I commented, but, looking up, I saw almost everyone had already gone to inspect the opening in the cavern. I hurried over to watch, and was amazed at the beautiful purple column in the center of the room. As everyone watched, the crystaline pillar shattered, and the shards seemed to be magnetically drawn towards Seylan, for they all hit him, and he fell down.

"Wha-What happened?" Shadow asked uneasily.

"I-I feel stronger" Seylan replied, standing up shakily and looking at his Soulcutter Blade. Strangely enough, it seemed more deadly than before, and a strange blue aura surrounded it.

For a few minutes, we all talked, and watched as Seylan tried out his new Ice Abilities.

"That's what the giants meant!" Shadow shouted. "They meant that by collecting these crystals, we'd have the strength to destroy Gannondorf!"

At these words, the dungeon seemed to swirl around us, and we suddenly reappeared outside. In front of us we could see horses grazing in the pawed-up grass.

"We're back out..." Shadow said, smiling.
"Yeah." Said Maichi, looking happy. I smiled to myself, happy to be free of that horrible worm.

Shadow approached a horse.

"Oh yeah...about them." Hiro said. "I got them for you, from the girl's mother."

I stood, watching my companions get their horses, when I felt a nudge in my back.

"Hmm? Who're you?" I asked, turning around. It was a beautiful gray stallion, with a black mane, and several black spots upon its back. "Hello!" I greeted it. It snorted, flickering its tail back and forth. I rubbed its nose. "I suppose this means your mine?" The horse stomped its foot, and I happily got into the saddle, adjusting the bridle 'till my horse was satisfied.

Patting its neck, I thought of a name I could call it. "How about Shunme...That's a nice name for you."

Looking around, I saw Kisa had mounted a beautifully white Arabian mare. Shadow had recieved a jet black horse with a unique white mane and tail. Puck also had a gray horse, with a tint of black, and a black mane.

"Where to next?" Maiku asked us.

"Zora Cape!" Most everyone shouted. Zora Cape? I thought to myself. Never heard of 'Zora Cape'...Oh well, sounds lovely.

Upon this, the rest mounted their steeds, and we trotted in the direction of the obviously famous Zora Cape!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fwah, long post.

[Arnen]

OoC: Aw man, new abilities and I MISSED it!

~^*Seylan*^~

Shadow opened the large chest, and seemed pretty p!ssed about something.He jammed the key into the hole on the door, so hard it shattered. I shook my head, walking after the others.

The next chamber was empty, except for a large, purple crystal. I had a weird feeling about it... Suddenly, it burst into shards, all of which flew straight at me. My eyes widened as I was stabbed a hundred times...

When I finally woke up, after what seemed an eternity, somethin felt wrong. No... That's a lie... I glanced at the sword in my hand, it was surrounded by a blue aura.

"Wha-what happened?" Shadow asked.

I looked up at him. "I-I feel....stronger." I replied. I stood up. "It's like...I've known all this stuff my whole life." I said softly.

"What?" Izumi asked, confused.

"Impale!" I cried suddenly. A huge icicle shot out of the ground, far from the group. "There are all these spells...it's like those beams transferred this new magic to me."

"That's what the giants meant!" Shadow shouted, "They meant that by collecting these crystals, we'd have the strength to destroy gannondorf!"

As my brother said this, I was stunned to find myself outside again. There were horses grazing nearby.

"We're back out..." Shadow smiled.

"Yeah." Said Maichihappily.

I looked uncertainly at the horses.

"Oh yeah...about them," Hiro said, "I got them for you, from the girl's mother."

I felt a shove in my back, and fell face-first onto the turf. Grumbling, I stood back up, brushing grass off my tunic. I turned and saw a midnight-black stallion with a silver mane, whinnying with laughter. Grumbling, I muttered, "I guess that means he likes me." The horse reared up, pawing the air. "<I'll take that as a 'yes'...>Ok, then, you'll be... Midnight." He whinnied again; he liked the name, I guess.

When we got outside of the cave The horses were there just chilling out. I told everyone that they were for them.

"Make sure you let the horses Choose you. By the I mean if you try and touch them and the back up. Thats not the Horse for you."

I whatched Shadow walk up the Black horse. I kinda thought he would. The horse easily accpet him. At that moment Nightblaze came up to me and nudged me.

"Don't worry NightBlaze." U said While I patted his head softly. "I would trade you for anything!" Then I hoped on her back and trotted on over to Shadow.

"So Shadow, You like your new Horse?"

[Twizzler0171]

Kisa--

I watched the others pick their horses, Windstorm walking by my side. Windstorm nickered to one of the other horses. Of course, they knew eachother. I wondered if Windstorm knew her past, where she was born.

[Haruko]

O.o..I'm not very good with horses...

Ahh....

Izumi
~~~~
After the monster was gone, the room led to another, with just a Purple crystal...

It seemed connected to Seylan, then it glew, making a lot of tiny cyrstal's that hit Seylan..

When he woke up, his sword was engulfed in a blue glow..

"Wha-what happened?" Shadow asked.
"I-I feel....stronger." Seylan replied, getting up, "It's like...I've known all this stuff my whole life."

"What??"I said, utterly confused..
Seylan performed a magic attack,with more power..

Sooner or later, we were outside again, with horses grazing outide..

"Remember, let the horse choose you.."Hiro said.

I walked up to one of them, that had a Silverish Mane and white skin..

I pet it, with it nuzzeling against my head....

"I'll name you Hikari(Mean's Light in Japanese..)..."I said...petting it more..

[lugia_2000]

That means I'm partially correct to! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Shadow
~~~~~~

I had gotten up on my horse, as had everyone else. I had decided I'd name him Inuyasha (after the show, of course ^_^). Now that we had all mounted the horses, we were ready to go.
"Hyah!" I shouted as my horse raced forward. I was used to riding...well, sort of. I used to own a dodongo, or so it seemed. It was like horse riding was farmiliar to me. The others followed closely behind. It took us nearly six hours of riding across termina field, but fianally we arrived at Zora cape.
"WOW!!!" I exclaimed as we came to the gates. There were miles and miles of sandy beach, rolling blue water, and even a huge, flashy looking town. It was probably about midnight when we arrived, but the town was completely lit up.
"Let's check it out!" Kisa shouted. Everyone seemed totally excited. It was nice and warm here. Not as warm as Ikana...it was just the right amount of heat. There was also a hint of humidity. We opened the gates, and lead our horses to the town. Two guards stopped us.
"Where do you think you are going?" One asked.
"To find a corral for our horses." I responded.
"No!" The second one shouted.
"No animals in the city!"
"Then where's the corral?" Kurayami asked.
"Around main street." The first one said.
"But that's in the city!" I shouted. The man tossed me a small cardboard box. I opened it up. There were Ten drawstring bags, in each two gems.
"What're these?" I asked. The guards broke out in laughter.
"These are summon gems." He responded.
"Wha?" Puck said, confused.
"You can use them to command the spirit of creatures good of heart. An animal or beast or whatever can be stored in them, one per gem."
I nodded my words of thanks.
"How do you use them?" Hiro asked.
"Just point 'em to what you want put in the gem, and shout 'summon!' It's likewise for bringing something out of a gem as well."
"What's the extra for?" Asked Miachi.
"Well, for another beast, if you find one. Remember, only creatures good of heart may be captured." The guard said.
"Summon!" I shouted, pointing the gem to Inuyasha. He was sucked into the gem.
"Hope it's comfortable in there..." I sighed. I figured I could buy more summon gems inside the city.
"Well then, should we split into groups to explore the city?" Seyaln asked. Everyone nodded.
I waited for someone to offer to check out the town with me.

[SmearGal]

Yes, but you're partially wrong too. XD! This is fun...

BTW, I should've said this, but Shunme is Japanese for 'swift horse.' ^_^';; And did I ever say that kurayami means 'darkness' or 'the dark.' Been obsessed with words like that. XD!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kurayami

"How do you use them?" Hiro asked.

"Just point 'em to what you want put in the gem, and shout 'summon!' It's likewise for bringing something out of a gem as well." The guard replied.

"What's the extra for?" Asked Maichi.

"Well, for another beast, if you find one. Remember, only creatures good of heart may be captured." The guard said.

"Summon!" Shadow shouted, pointing the gem to Inuyasha. He seemed to shrink, as he was magically sucked into the gem.

"Okay, Shunme. In you go! Summon!" I ordered, pointing the gem at Shunme, and watched as he was sucked into it. I tied the drawstring bag around my belt, and waited for the others.

"Well then, should we split into groups to explore the city?" Seylan asked us. Everyone nodded, so we looked around for partners.

Shadow seemed to be waiting for someone to go with him. Why not?, I thought to myself, turning to Shadow.

"Hey Shadow, care to come with me?" I asked him. ((OOC: That sounds like I'm asking him to a dance, or something. XD!))

"Uh...sure, okay." He answered, smiling.

I smiled back, and turned to our separate groups. "D'you think we should meet somewhere in a few hours or so?"

After a while, we agreed to meet back here around 2 hours, giving us plenty of time to check out the city. We gave our goodbyes, and Shadow and I walked down main street, talking lightly.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Can't think of what to talk about, so you make something up. XD!
Edit: Other things. XD!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The city was so big!Some guards met us and gave us things called summon gems.Sha dow asked how to use them and they laughed.I almost puched one of them.I used it on my horse.

We were going to split up and explore the city"Wanna come with me Maichi?"I asked."O.K"Maichi said.I couldn't help feeling bad for Shadow though,until Kurayami asked him.He got toung- tide.I was always comfortable around girls on the other-hand.We talked for a while about life,death,Shadow,rupies,and dreams, when we heard a rustling in the bushes.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

gonna let you tell what it was

[Twizzler0171]

Kisa--

I nodded, taking the bag. I patted Windstorm, and she nuzzled me. I took a deep breath. "I hope it's comfortable in there, Windstorm." I said. "Summon!" Windstorm was sucked in. I almost cried. Silently, I followed the others.

[Arnen]

~^*Seylan*^~

I fingered the small blue crystal. I pointed it at Midnite (changed the spelling), shouting "Summon!" There was a small flash, and the horse was gone. I smirked; the girls seemed pretty upset about their horses being gone.

I wandered into the city, alone (OoC: Did I neglect to mention he's sorta a loner? Meh...), daydreaming about what I could put into the second crystal. I didn't notice when I walked into this big guy until he punched me in the nose, drawing blood.

"Watch where yer goin', punk!" he drawled, glaring stupidly. He was, as I said, huge, a few years older than I, and I was willing to bet he had the IQ of a Deku Stick.

I grinned slyly, brushing blood from my face. "You should watch who you call names," I warned. He just grunted and swung another punch. This one I ducked under easilly. I grabbed his wrist and twisted, drawing a howl of pain from him. I grinned, walking away. He was sobbing like a little baby.

OoC: Meh, nothin' much, just a fight with some street scum.

[FireMaster]

Hiro
~~~~~

The man at the gate handed me a 2 Summon stones. 1 was for NightBlaze the over for anything I could find.

"Excuse me Sir" I started "Whats it like inside these crystals?"

"Well, its a huge plain full of water and tress. Its really quite nice."

I nodded and pointed it at Nightblaze

"and one more thing, if my horse doesn't comeout felling good. Then you will be seeing me again.." said Glaring. "Summon" I said and Nightblaze was sucked into the stone.

After that I headed into the town. This town was actully quite big. I walked around for a bit when, I saw a weapon smith. I got inside and the man was bragging about how his swords were the strongest around.

"I beg to differ" I said as i walked up to the front.

"Who might you be?" the man asked. "Your obviously new around here becasue everyone knows my swords are the strongest around."

I walked over to them picked them up and look closely. The made to look very nice but, were very cheap to produce.

"I will duel you then, I will use mine," I said this as i drew them both out."and, you can use yours."

The man agreed and led everyone into the back where there was a small arena in the back and a few people whatched.

GO! The crowd yelled.

The man took out his sword and I took mine out. He charged forward with his sword high above his head and brought it down apon me. I blocked easily. He was much easier than anything else we had faced. When I saw it fit. I thrusted his sword up and got out of the guard postion. Then, I charged forward both swords ready. Seeing me charge he put his sword up in front of him to black my X Slash.(Thats where you bring the sword down in a X. Go figure) I jumped forward and slashed. There was a slight *ting and everyone was trying to figure out what was going on

"Go ahead" I said "slash me"

The man drew his sword about his head but, when he did the blade fell off into 3 peices.

After that everyone left and I just smiled.

"Make your weapons more sturdy, don't go for looks."

with taht I walked out
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~``

No time to edit sorry, i have school

[lugia_2000]

Grrrrr....but I'm more right than wrong!....I think....wait, no...darn!
Oh yeah, more info regarding summon gems...they're used like spells, not like pokeballs, just in case you were wondering.

Shadow
~~~~~~

Kurayami and I walked down several blocks of stores and stands and dealers and such. There was so much interseting stuff. I didn't want to blow all my money, five hundred rupees to be axact, but I had a feeling I might.
"Freeeesh fish!" A man said, thrusting a mackeral in my face. I gulped.
"Uh, no thanks..." I said, pushing the fish away. Kurayami gave a short laugh.
"The people here sure are stange, huh?" She asked. I nodded.
"Yeah...it seems like they'll do anything to get a bit of attention. " I remarked. Upon saying this, we rounded a block, and something caught my eye. There was a brightly lit sign reading: SUMMON, atop a large grey building.
"Wow...want to check it out?" I asked her, eager to see what they had to sell.
"Sure." Kurayami replied. We ran over to the building. The doors opened by themselves, as if by magic. Inside was just about every last type of creature you could think of...domestic dodongos, horses, fishes, inscects, birds, beasts, everything!
"Ah man...I just know I'm going to have to buy something..." I said, giving a slight sigh. Kurayami and I walked over to the dodongos. One particullary stood out. It was a dodongo, I estimated he was about eight feet long, and three feet high. His scales gleamed in the bright light, and a tremendous horn stood atop it's head. It was all muscle, and it's four legs were bulging with muscles and sinew. It seemed...firmiliar somehow. I called over an attendant.
"How much for him?" I asked, motioning to the dodongo.
"He would be...three hundred and fifty ruppees." He said, looking down at the floor. I looked in my wallet. Five hundred ruppees total. I hesitated.
"Would you go down to 300?" I asked, a bit nervous. The man waited a bit, and then spoke.
"No. 350 at the least."
I forked over the money. The man smiled at his buisness, and walked off. I approached the dodongo. A battered saddle stood on it's back. I took a closer look. Etched into the saddle in terrible handwriting was the name, Asher. I thought to myself. Could he have been that boy in my memory? Nah, probably just another Asher.
"Summon!" I shouted. The dodongo was sucked into my remaining gem. Kurayami then proceeded to drag me over to the other exibits. Eventually we stopped at a pen containing a large yellow bird (copy and paste this link for a pic) http://www.fortunecity.com/rivendell...38/chocobo.jpg Standing next to the bird was a furry white creature with little pointed ears, a pair of wings, and small eyes. It kind of resmebled a cross between a bear and a cat. Their name plates said, 'Chocobo and Mog'. Kurayami seemed amazed at them.
"How much for these?" She asked a nearby salesman. He smiled.
"They're a bit weak, and both stay in the same gem, as they attack together. The chocobo makes a great ride, and is quite superior to horses. They're 50 rupees."

[Haruko]

Never..I mean NEVER...Get a shot in your hip. I'm warning you, it hurts...

A lot!

Izumi got ton's of rupees..
~~~~~~~~
Izumi
~~~~
While we were riding the horses, I made Hikari go faster by pulling out my full wing-span, it being 7 feet. I swore some of the time we were of the ground...

It was something that didn't care what I was..

"Finally!"I said, patting Hikari..We had reached Zora Cape, and there was a city sitting on the shore..

We went over, to only have the guards yell, saying no Animal's allowed. They looked over at me..

I hope they weren't going to not let me in, I'm considered a Animal a lot.

This guy threw a box, with Summoning Crystals. I've been in one before, since I can go in, Having wings. It's not the best place to be. I did get out...

I grabbed 2 of them..and Summoned Hikari into one, patting her..

~

I walked alone on the City street, with my Sack of Rupee's I had. I recieved Dirty look's, and look's of like someone saw a angel..

Weird, I'm no Angel, but you can call me that if you want..

"Lady....Can I touch your wings??"A little kid said, after begging his mom to come over to me.

"Sure.."I said. He touched them..

"Soft.."He said..

"Thank you lady!!"He said, with one of my feathers...I was sheading already...I shead a Feather a Month..(Her feather's don't carry disease...)

"Girl...What do you use those Arrow's for?"The person in a Booth said. He carried arrow's, but not my Double tip Sun Silver Arrows..

"Attacking...Defending.."I said, Taking one out..

"Can I touch it?"He said, nervous..
I gave it to him, with him Touching it and looking at it..

"How do you get these thing's to hit directly?"He asked me..
"Easy, you have to aim more below the Target. You also have t have great force with it.."

"Oh..here, I'll reduce the price for you, but this Guy came over and sold me these arrow's and a Bow like yours. And your's is all bloody....I'll give you it for 150 rupees..."

"Deal.."I said, giving him the rupees. I had 900, mostly back when people in my town asked me to defend them..

I looked, and saw a Moon Arrow, still double tip, but more elegant...All of them where Moon Arrow's, and the bow was a silverish like material...

I saw Kurayami and Shadow go in a place with SUMMON..

I followed them..

~~~~~~~~~

[Twizzler0171]

Kisa--

SUMMONS. That was where everyone--almost everyone, anyways--was going. I followed. Looking around, something caught my eye. "What's that?" I asked. It looked like a bird, but, at the same time it didn't. I noticed it had gills, and webbed feet. It could go underwater. Interesting. But, it was the face that really interested me. A blue beak, grey eyes, it looked similar to me in its own way. I listened as Shadow got a Dodongo, Kurayami got two, a Chocobo and a Mog. And...and, the only thing that interested me was that thing...

[SmearGal]

X-x';; Oh no...gah...

I'm finally out of horrid school,
(Man, isn't that real lame?)
My friends read their poems today,
And it drove me all insane.

We have to write a poem;
It's what I hate to do,
'Cause anything I ever say,
Is never worth a shoe.

So here's something to think about,
As you sit at your PC...
Whenever you have to do poems,
Never, EVER listen to me.

XP It was inevitable, and the teacher liked it. XD!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kurayami

"Chocobo! Chocobo!" I sang happily. I never had so many pets before!! Usually having to contend with Wolfos pups in the Lost Woods, which in turn never liked me anyway.

Shadow looked troubled. He had bought a large Dodongo. Dodongos were cute...but I think this one had meant something more to him...

Stretching animatedly, I turned around to see Izumi walk in the store.

"Hey," She called, waving. Her wings were carefully folded, lest they should become a play-toy for some baby creature.

"Hi Izumi. Guess what I just bought?" I smiled.

"What?"

"A Chocobo and a Mog!!" I spoke with such enthusiasm, I probably seemed insane and highly dangerous. The storeowner sure seemed to think so, for he had retreated behind the door. ((OOC: My History teacher thinks I'm crazy, because I smile at him evilly, and he hurries down the hall...XD Such fun!))

Izumi, sensing my joy, smiled and said, "That's great! Chocobos are cute, and so are Mogs." She turned to Shadow. "And what about you? What did you get?"

Shadow paused for a moment. "I bought a Dodongo."

Izumi smiled again, "Dodongos are really loyal, aren't they? They're supposed to be nice pets...if they don't set fire to your house, that is." We all laughed.

Hearing a jingle, we turned to the door, where Kisa walked inside. After a few greetings, she looked around the place, catching her eye upon some underwater creature.

"How much for this?" She asked the storeowner, who had reappeared from his hiding spot.

"Aahhh...Yes, that is one of our most prized specimens." He smiled, hurrying over to Kisa. He told her all about it, though we couldn't really hear from this distance.

"What about you, Izumi? Are you planning to buy anything here?" I asked her.

"Oh...probably. I'll look around. I just bought some new arrows, and a new bow, as mine was all bloody from our battle..." She paused, glancing at me. I almost sighed. People can be so stereotypical...Turn into a Dragon just once, and you get weird looks. I stopped thinking to myself, and laughed inwardly. That sounds funny...

"How long've we got 'till we meet up?" Shadow asked.

Glancing 'round for a clock, I spotted one, and read the time. "About 45 minutes, according to that." I pointed. Suddenly, I got an inspiration. "Heeey!! I know! I've been needing to buy some new clothes...Clothing store!"

Shadow looked at me with horror. "...I...no...don't...wha?" He stuttered.

I rolled my eyes. Teenage boys...G-R-O-A-N! I plucked at my uniform's dark colors. "If this weather keeps up, I'll hardly be able to breath. This thing was designed for nice, shady weather, like in the Lost Woods. Not tropical beaches."

Shadow still looked horrorstruck, as if accompanying a girl to a clothing store was a crime. Inside, I was battling a torrent of laughter. Ohh...I would do this for a living... I thought.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
XD I had this whole scenario played out in my mind. XD! And PoLIzumi: XD Hip shots are horrid, but I hate the shots that paralyze your arm for an hour or two. *shudders*

[lugia_2000]

Ahhhh....they hurt. I got one in my nose once. Now THAT hurts...
Oh yeah...nabooru, who's Tadan? haha...
Oh yeah, one more thing...can I change the magic summoning word to "un-summon" for containing creatures? It sounds alot better. You don't have to go back and edit your posts.

Shadow
~~~~~~~

Great...clothes shopping...my favorite thing in the world. -_-"
I had to agree though, it would be hot out, and considering my normally gothic dress style, I decided to come along to buy something cooler. Kurayami and I eventually found a shop full of clothes, and to make matters worse, it was a large shop of clothes. We walked inside.
"This sucks..." I mumbled.
"What?" Kurayami said.
"Er, nothing." I said, acting fast. I looked around for a bit, and then bought a pair of black zip off cargo pants, and a white tee-shirt with a scary looking dragon insignia on it. Forty ruppees, down the drain...-_-" Kurayami seemed to be buying everything in sight.
"Why don't you just get the deed to the store?" I asked sarcastically.
"Ha ha...very funny." She said, plucking another top from a rack.
"Meet you outside." I said, marching back into the night. I sat down upon a bench and waited for about ten minutes unti; Kurayami came back out with about three bags full of outfits. I groaned.
"Can you help me carry some of these?" She asked.
"...alright." I responded reluctantly. She threw me all three bags. I nearly toppled over. It took us about fifteen more minutes to reach the only inn in (heehee, puns!) Zora cape. I reserved a room for myself. Kurayami did the same. I helped her carry her bags into her room, and then walked back to the front desk.
"'There a room where I can leave my pets for the night?" I asked. The attendant looked down at his paper work, responseless. He pointed to a sign, which read: Kennel, left and down the hall. I gave my thanks and raced to see my new dodongo.

"Here you go Inuyasha." I said, releasing him into a stable. There was an area for horses apart from the various beast kennel. I patted his nose and slipped him a carrot, and then leisurely walked over to the beast kennel.
"Summon!" I said, holding the gem in front of myself. The dodongo gradually came into view. He gazed at me with his deep black eyes, and slowly plodded toward me. I patted the top of his head. I had not noticed before, but there was a collar around his neck. Upon closer examination, I read it aloud,
"Gigyas."
That rang a bell. I had heard that name somewhere. I could not remember when or where I had heard it, but I knew it had some meaning. "Gigyas" suddenly opened his mouth as to breathe fire, but shut it quickly. He lay down beside me and looked up.
"Mighty fine dodongo you have there."
There was an old wrinkly man standing about three yards away.
"Thank you." I responded.
"Where you get that thing?"
"At the summons shop...just a few blocks down from here." I said. He looked shocked.
"Most people 'be havin' flames all over the place when they buy a dodongo...this one seems, well, to trust you..." He said. I did not respond.
"I' give ya' sev'n hundred ruppees for 'im."
"No thanks."
"Eight hundred!"
"No thanks."
"A thous'nd!"
"I said no thank you!" I shouted.
"Gaaaaahhhhhhhh!!!!" The man shouted. He came at me, fists flailing. He was stopped by a torrent of flame. The man left, a bit shooken up. Just then Kurayami came into the area.
"Hi Shadow." She said.
"Hey." I responded. She released her chocobo and mog. The mog was sitting on the chocobo's back. I laughed at the sight.
"They're pretty cool, huh?" I said.
"Yeah," She replied. "THey seem quite smart."
"We'll have to go back tomorrow." I mentioned.
"What about our mission?"
"It can wait...this city is so great...I love it here." I said, a smile upon my face.
~~~~~~~~
gotta go...tired...hungry....thirsty....-_-"
