Hyrule Adventures 2

His left hand crackling with green sparks, that dissapated the second they formed, Worru glared at the giant of a man. "What do you want?", he asked, much like a rebellious punk to a man he knows full well can break him into tiny pieces. Aria then, knowing that the boy should shut up before they are both killed, gave his lower section a swift kick, and he was sent to the ground, fetal position style. The true-blooded Sheikah was quiet, only a glare for the man.

Sakiko tipped her head at Kairos. She was a bit confused that the blue orbs (ooc: blue or green? They were blue at first...) weren't to keep, but you could eventually keep one and give one to a friend. She shrugged, too lazy to think it through. She wasn't exactly sure of what the blobs were made of, anyway. Scowling, she muttered,

"Damn spies. There's no privacy around here, is there? Goddesses, how annoying."

She turned to Xeon,

"Don't even think about posessing any of these bodies, you."

Kairos simply ignored the statement concerning spies. "Take it however you like. This is war, and precautions are necessary." He said(OOC: Right there is a hint for plot development). The man moved away, to another pile to burn.

The sky was doused in smoke.

Gobi was locked in the doorway as the question was shot at him. The giant only stared down at Worru, a question on his face. "What do I want?" Jormund Gobi repeated, and took a step forward, busting the wall so he could escape the door. He lifted Worru and Aria off the floor easily, but gently.

"I want neither what Hyrule wants, nor what the armies of darkness wants." He said, a large grin on his ancient face. "What I want is a better future. A better future for a race that has too long been oppressed and mistreated!" He said, letting anger flow out and destroy the walls. "I want a future for which I know will be glorious!"

In most cases, the boy in the giant's grip would be silent, just hoping the man didn't squeeze any more, lest his organs be crushed as well. But, no, he wasn't silent; moreso, he was laughing. Worru's head was down, hair covering one eye, and as he lifted his head, the uncovered eye changed into one of three colors on a random basis: either green, red, or his natural amythest.

"Is that so true, Jormund? That you are fighting for a glorius future for your race? Are you aware of just who is left of that race!? Well!?", he said, smiling a manic grin. "There is you; there is Kasei; there is that Tatsu fellow, if he isn't already dead; there is Aria; finally, there is the boy you hold now, the shame of the races he has been born into, me.", he explained, "But two of these are going to die soon, and when they die, there will be the question of just who is going to lead the clan after that."

"Who do you think it would be? That girl you hold in your hand, who has shown strength, courage, wisdom, far beyond her years, one who is oh-so very suited for the position of leader? Or, is it this boy, in your other hand, who has found blades of grass that are sharper than he is, who has found dulled kitchen knives that had more power to them, who is speaking out against someone who could kill him without even trying?", he asked, voice no longer in a maniac-like manner of speaking, but more one of anger.

"And tell me, Jormund, just who is going to die then? Who thinks that they are invinicble, and yet shall die against someone who is to be killed by someone who is far weaker than you? Tell me! TELL ME!", he roared, a mixture of hatred, mania, and just sheer dumbfounded courage in his voice.

Jormund simply stared down at the rag-doll sized boy in his hands through the speach. However, almost the moment he was finishes, Worru noticed an undescribably pain all over his body, though he lacked any injury. "Heheheh." The giant said.

Slam

Gobi had unleashed Worru, and, in the second the boy was in midair, summoned a gust of air to throw the boy to the wall. Blood came from Worru's mouth as some of his inner organs were bruised, and many of his bones were broken. Aria was placed on the ground softly. Jormund now stood over Worru, none of the earlier confidence or cheerfullness to be seen.

The rocks below Worru shifted, and his brocken body was lifted into the air. He was face-to-face with Gobi now, who was not happy.

"You sure do have guts, to say something like that to me, boy. I do not care how long it takes; I will restore our race to the top no matter what. If that means I simply need to raze everything else to the ground, then so be it." The giant said confidently.

Aria bit her lip, not able to find anything she could say at the moment, and inwardly scolding herself for not saying anything, and scolding Worru for saying anything.

However, this inward scolding was stopped, as she began to hear laughter. Worru's laughter, to be precise.

His eyes were a full green, now, as within his body, his bruised organs were healing with gusto. "You...you think that I...That I am just a mere being, don't you, Jormund?", the young hybrid said, his voice wavering between two tones. "I can...I can pass the Rites of Inviticus...And not flinch once...because I have my courage...heh, but it isn't exactly useful to have all of this courage...when one is a weakling like me, isn't it Jormund?"

Jormund smiled as he listened. Once again, the happines seemed to return. He gave a little nod, and let Worru drift to the floor. "Indeed, you are correct, boy." He said in his deep tone, turning to the door. "I will be back, and we will have a long conversation." He finished, as he began to leave the room. "Clean up this mess." Demanded to the guards, and to a third guard who had brought dinner for the two prisoners.

OOC: Post something random, in the next reply, Denkou reveals his badassness.

Aria watched Jormund as the giant left the room, and once he was gone through the stretched doorway, she went over to Worru and tried to stand him up, or at least prop him up on the wall of their smallish cell, knowing just how weak and in pain he must be.

She would need more help to lift him, but for now, Aria could hear a swift thump outside the cell, as both guards fell to the ground, the third one had been impaled to the opposite wall to the cell with a sword in his face. The food he had been carrying, a loaf of bread and two apples, flew through the air. A hand reached out and grabbed the bread. Another snatched an apple. The second apple landed cleanly in the mouth of one Denkou, lightning thief, who literally stood on top of the heads of the defeated guards. "Hiya there Worru, Aria." He said, as Gobi turned his head to look.

"I'm here to steal y'all back."

In an instant, he flew into the cell with speed even the legendary Dogura couldn't compare to, and grabbed Aria and Worru, putting them over his shoulders, just as Jormund appeared in the doorway.

"Place them down and you're death will be relatively painless." The giant commanded. Denkou looked at him for a second, then opened his mouth to reply; "Those are shitty conditions, so I think i'll pass that particular deal, gramps."

He finished the sentance as he flew through the air and planted his foot into Gobi's face, sending the giant tumbling backwards. Not willing to wait for the demon to get up, Denkou sped down the hallway like a bolt of lightning, the weight of Aria and Worru not seeming to hinder him at all.

Worru's head lifted up, eyes only able to peek through his eyelids as he tried to look at Denkou. "Why...Why did you take us...us back?", he asked the lightning theif, hesitating at points as he thought over the plan he was formulating at the moment. Aria gave the boy a glare, silently telling the young hybrid to just shut up and let himself be rescued, but the boy would have none of that.

"He...Jormund wants to talk with...me. I need to go back...and...and talk with him...", the boy added, thinking it might help his purpose a bit better.

Left, left, right, u-turn, left, right, left.

These were the tedious turns Denkou made in the time it took Worru to finish the question. "Kid, if I take you back, i'll die. That old dude had a face of bricks. Ya know him?" The thief asked over the roar of the wind. The man was literaly nothing but a yellow bolt as he sped around the base, looking for the exit.

Slice. Crash.

Denkou's legs gave under him as a scythe came from nowhere and cut his ankles. Aria and Worru flew to the ground at top speed. "Looks like you won't be going anywhere, boy." Gobi said as he towered over the bleeding Denkou.

"Oh yeah? Try and stop me." The hylian said defiantly, summoning a bolt of lightning and shooting it at Jormund, who seemed unnafected.

"Uh-oh."

Worru rose himself up from the ground, weakly by his arms, his face only scuffed by the ground after he landed. He glanced over to Aria, to find that she was in a lot better shape then he was, as she had cushioned her landing with some of her elemental power of wind, an-

Wait., the boy thought, as the wind around the girl dissapated. Didn't...Didn't that room have seals on it? Since we're out now...I guess we can use our powers again., the hybrid realized, even if it wasd obvious by now. To him, however, this was quickly forgotten as he slowly got to his feet, and faced the giant Jormund. "Well...What are we to talk about?", Worru asked, body aching as it finished his healing.

Energy surrounded Worru and pushed the injured boy away from Gobi and the oncoming nightmare creatures. "Dumbass! Do you want to die!" The thief Denkou roared, getting up quickly, elektricity coarsing through his legs to support him. He quickly grabbed Worru and snatched Aria.

Jormund raised his scythe for another attack, but Denkou was already long gone, headed for the exit at top speed. "If you all stay here, that old oji-san will most certainly kill you!" He said as he was almost out of the base.

Worru was able to laugh as he listened to Denkou and his premonitions of death if the boy were to stay behind. "Sure...he's stronger, faster, and smarter than I am. But, can he dance?", the boy asked, his tone ironically serious. It seemed as if, if Gobi had the ability to dance, it would make the man even more fearsome.

Denkou couldn't help but give off a chuckle, and Aria looked at Worru obstinantly as the pair of them flew through the gates of the base and into the hylian field, where a small group of archers was waiting. . . eagerly. Denkou looked at his cargo with a smile. "Well, now. What shall we do?" He asked mischeiviously, as lightning clouds started to form overhead. "Run, or rip them apart?"
