The beast hissed again, and with speed I wouldn't have thought possible for such an ungainly creature, it bolted forward, alredy moving towards the river, obviously intending the zora to be it's prey. I found it extremely difficult not to position myself between her and the beast, and began speaking in a clam, but hushed voice. "Look," I began, pointing with the staff. "It's legs are very small, so it probably won't attack if you stay out of the water."
 
I paused for a moment, thinking. Then after a few moments, I decided I would rather risk getting eaten then being trapped with Psycho. I dove into the water, using every inch of my Zora speed to get across the river before the thing could catch me...
 
The beast shot forward with suprising sped, seeming to ignore the current completely as it was quickly gaining on Tiamat. I had seen this, and my mind had gone devoid of all conscious thought, save one. I had to stop that beast from harming her. I was a bit suprised to find myself already dashing madly towards the river...
 
I had managed to reach the opposite shore, but I could see the creature coming, and could only hope I'd manage to get out of the water and far enough away before the thing was in range... it was going to be a matter of speed and luck...
 
The beast shot forward, as I pole-vaulted over the bank using the staff, and was in mid air. I could see time slow down around me again, and noticed that the creature was still moving with what seemed an impossible speed, swiftly gaining on Tiamat...
 
I was out of the water, bt the mud around the riverbank made it difficult for me. I had a feeling this thing could force itself out of the water as well, but death was still better then being with Psycho... my decision would always be that..
 
The beast climbed out of the water, ambling chaotically on it's legs, but still moving faster than it should have been. It hissed again, and opened the roof of it's mouth wide... However as it was only a matter of a foot or so from Tiamat, it fell the the ground, skidding for an inch ot two before it stopped. The hilt of my sword was keeping it's mouth slightly opened as blood poured from it's jaws. "It didn't have any of those tough scales inside it's mouth." I explained, slowly and carefully removing the sword from it's flesh so that it's mouth didn't take off my hand as it closed.
 
"you just HAVE to play the hero, don't you!?!" I said, absoloutly steamed. Figured. Stupid jerkwad wouldn't get the hint to just let me get eaten. I wanted to be away from him. Sad part was he never seemed to shut up either.
 
"No, I had to keep you from dying." I sadi, feigning anger so that she wouldn't know that I felt downcast at her words. "If the prohpecy is true, then I can't let you die." I said, wiping the sword on the grass beafore sheathing it, and picking up the staff like a walking stick.
 
"Big if. Unfortunatly, our sole sourse doesn't seem to be the most reliable thing in the world." I snapped, unknowingly reverting to the Zora tounge. I was losing focus on speaking Hylian, which was never a good thing.
 
I couldn't take it any more. What little thread I had that binded me to being calm snapped. "Just leave me alone!" I yelled, diving into the lake, going deep, my crying sobs muffled now. Why couldn't he just stop, he was blind to how much it hurt....
 
I didn't say anything, though I was perplexed by what had happened. Surely she hadn't expected me to let her die, did she? It didn't really matter, because even if I did, even if I could, it seemed fate would just step in again, as it had so far.
 
Once I was at that bottom, I partially buried myself to keep from floating as I started crying. How I managed to cry underwater was anyone's guess, but even the octopus things in the water leaved me alone. I was in total silence, in an underwater world.
 
I sighed after a moment, and walked over to the water. I gently slipped my hands beneath the surface, and clicked my fist and my palm together, which made a sound that carried a long way in the water. I did this a few times, and waited. I hoped that she would come over to me, I needed to apologize for whatever I had done to upset her.
 
I tilted my head slightly, having heard somehting. Sounded like a wounded fish. But the pitch was slightly diffrent, so I moved toward the sound, before membering who it was. I surfaced at a high speed, landing on dry land next to Psycho. "What do you want?" I said, on the verge of dry-land tears...
 
I sighed, but began to speak the truth. "I was to say that I'm sorry." I began, looking down into the water at the reflection of the moon. "I know you're upset about what the prophecy says about you having to stay with me, though I'm not quite sure what I did to send you into that fit of yours, but I want to apologize..." I explained, though as it happened, I wouldn't get the chance to finish my Explanation...
 
"shut up about the prophesy already, I'm tired of you acting like it's the most important thing in the world to you!" I yelled, grabbing the staff from his hand without thinking and bringing it down over his head as hard as I could. For a moment, I considered laughing, but then decided to sprint into the water still carrying the stick, knowing I could keep it at the bottom of the lake...
 
My world suddenly became a bright flash of color as pain exploded in the back of my head. I sat there for a few moments, my brain trying to find a way to cope with the combined pain and shock, when I regained my eyesight, and noticed what she had done. I literally leapt up into the air, shrieking, and dashing out into the water, though I knew that now I was completely at her mercy, and that she would decide whether I got the staff back or not.
 
I had doven to the bottom of the lake, placing the staff, and returning to the surface, smiling slightly.. He would be paying for his ignorance for the next few minutes, oh yes he would... Cause I was the only thing that could get the staff short of Ansem...
