Hyrule's Brand New-Ancient Monstrosity

Chapter 21: Lanayru's Minining Facility



Sorry, I know it might be coming as me not being able to make a decision, but this time, I'm taking away POVs and never bringing them back, after some more usage I find that they're too situational and take away from the reading.

Vexalia reached the bottom of the stairs entering the first room of the facility, "I don't know why I didn't expect there to be sand, but here we are." She said with a small smirk, kicking a pile of sand away, but also a small, white scorpion thingy.

The sight of the scorpion made Vexalia shiver to her bones, "OH DEAR GODDESS WHAT IS THAT!?!?" She yelled as she scurried as far away as possible from it, pushing her back to the wall, "That is an infant creature known as an Arachna." Fi explained calmly, further freaking Vexalia out, "YOU MEAN THERE'S BIGGER OF THESE THINGS!?!?" She exclaimed in horror before creating a bomb and tossing it.

An explosion later, Vexalia stepped away from the hole she made, "I'm gonna die here..." She lamented under her breath while hugging herself.

Sending a beetle to activate two switches on the other side of sand pits and to collect a red rupee from a chest, she went through the door that opened and was met with two three headed lizard, "Better than the Arachnas..." She commented as she tried cutting one of their head only to have it grow back after it flailed in pain.

"Fuck this." Vexalia said as she sheated her sword and then headbutted the middle head and puched the other two, killing the creature, "You next?" She asked the other, but saw that it was shivering while holding it's chins against the floor, "Good choice I guess?" She said in confusion before heading to the only door that wasn't locked.

Pushing some crates to reach the door, Vexalia saw the huge chamber, "Damn... All this just for some purple rock." She commented before Fi spoke, "I detect the presence of Zelda straight ahead." And that was enough for Vexalia to take off running in the direction said by Fi.

"Mistress, to proceed you're going to need-" Fi was saying as Vexalia approached a gate locked by a pinwheel, which there wasn't equipment avaiable, but then suddenly an aura got dragged towards her and she absorbed it, and with that she blew a gust of wind that made the pinwheel spin and open the gate, "-A tool..." Fi finished with slight stupor as Vexalia got to the locked door.

Not having a key, Vexalia punched into the lock, squeezing her hand in the hole and into a bloody pulp that she used to unlock it, "Mistress what-" Fi was saying before being interrupted, "SHUT! UP!" Vexalia yelled, before her veins started burning all of a sudden, with the ones under her skin charring it and the ones tangled in her hair glowing.

Getting beyond the door, Vexalia stepped into the sand filled room, ignoring how it shifted beneath her feet, she stopped in the middle, looking around for a way forward, before something burst out of the sand behind her and tried to take a slash at her, which was met by a toss gover the shoulder, revealing to her the scorpion thing attacking her.

Thousand Year Arachnid: Moldarach.

Looking at it, there wasn't an hint of hesitation in the heroine's eyes as she charged at the scorpion and grabbed it by the tail, swinging it around like a ragdoll, lifting up sand and finally tossing it away into the wall, "Mistress!" Fi exclaimed in shock at how savage Vexalia was, having seen it only earlier that day in that fit of anger.

Now with a clear opening, all it took was a moment for Vexalia to unsheate her sword and bringing it down at the base of Moldarachs tail, severing it off completely and sending the monster into a fit of pained spasms, causing it to get back on it's feet and move away, but now without it's greatest weapon, and in that fit, it opened its central eye, allowing Vexalia to stab it and inject it with sulfur, making it die from toxicity.

With the Moldarach now dead, the sand in the chamber began lowering, revealing a passage further in the facility that led to an enormous passage with a cart rail that was already powered by a time shift stone for some reason, but taking advantage of that, Vexalia climbed on the cart and arrived at the other end, finding stairs that finally, brought her to the temple.

The sight made Vexalia calm down enough for her veins to stop burning and her senses to return, "My Goddess... I made it!" She exclaimed as she looked around the place, until her eyes landed on none other than Zelda, "...ZELDA!!!" Vexalia yelled after a pause, catching the attention of her girlfriend.

"VEXALIA!!" Zelda yelled back with a bright smile, "Guess you aren't so useless as a hero after all..." The girl escorting Zelda commented with a slight smile right as a boom went off near them, "SO HE DID FOLLOW US!!" The girl yelled to get everyones attention on the attacker, which was none other than Ghirahim, "As if I'm going to just let you escape!" He proclaimed, pointing his sword at Zelda and the girl.

At that threat, Vexalia clashed her sword against his to hold him back, "VEXALIA! CATCH!" Zelda instructed as she used some kind of magic to send her harp flying to the heroine, who pushed Ghirahim away to catch the harp, "LISTEN! YOU KNOW WHERE TO GO TO!" The girl told Vexalia before opening a portal like the one in the Earth Temple and went in along with Zelda.

"Damnit! You let them-" Ghirahim stopped as he noticed that Vexalias veins literally caught on fire, also making it come pouring out of her mouth, "Get away..." He finished, but inteding it more for Vexalia to do so, "GET AWAY!!" He begged before teleporting away, making Vexalia calm down as he disappeared, "...Off to the Sealing Grounds..." Vexalia simply said, feeling more dejected than she has since the Earth Temple.

"You will find her mistress, you quest depends on it." Fi reassured before going dormant to leave Vexalia to deal with her feelings.
