Wild Secrets

Fire and Chaos

Link's POV

We rode in silence for a few minutes before coming to the monster camp.

It looked like all the others. There was nothing special about it.

I noticed though, that the monsters on it, were mostly silver with two or three gold ones. No red or blue monsters were in sight.

We dismounted and hid behind a rock a few feet away.

The others didn't seem to take the large amount of silver enemies and the gold ones as a big deal. Then I remembered how they're not from this time.

They must not have color-coded monsters like we do.

I told them how the silver monsters were powerful, but no where near as strong as the gold ones.

My theory turned out to be right as they seemed surprised.

"So how are we going to do this?" Hyrule asked.

Time took charge. "Legend, Four and Wind, you take on the three black bokoblins as fast as you can. Apparently they're not as powerful as the others so they will just be a distraction."

The three nodded.

"Captain, Sky take the silver moblin. You're the quickest but most powerful in a fight. Might as well get rid of the big one.

"Twilight and I will be archers. When you finish off your monster, move on to the next. Any questions?"

I raised my hand to get everyone's attention.

Time widened his eyes. He forgot about me.

He opened his mouth, probably to assign me to some monster but I cut him off.

'I can help you and Twilight with archery.' I signed. 'I'm a pretty good one.'

Time hesitated for a second before nodding. "Okay."

And the plan was put into motion.

Legend, Four and Wind went one way and Warriors and Sky went another.

Time, Twilight and I climbed up the rock face for a moment before coming to a ledge that gave us a bird's eye view.

We nocked our arrows and waited.

My eyes caught something on the structure.

Explosive barrels.

I found the location of the five on foot. They were out of range.

I put my arrow to the side and instead nocked a fire arrow.

Time and Twilight asked me what I was doing, but I didn't answer.

I pulled the arrow back, aimed, and fired.

Fire enveloped the camp. The silver moblin went over the edge and into the water below.

A black bokoblin smacked into the rock wall and flopped lifelessly onto the rocks at the bottom.

The best part of my action, was that alll the monsters had dropped their weapons in surprise.

The heroes on the ground recovered quickly.

They charged in and took on defenseless monsters. They used their initial confusion to their advantage.

The black bokoblin below us, jumped back up and tried to join the fight. Warriors was able to finish him off pretty quickly.

Soon, all the monsters were gone.

Time, Twilight and I climbed back down and regrouped with the others.

"What the Hell was that?" Legend asked. "That wasn't apart of the plan!"

I scratched the back of my head nervously.

Legend glared at me. Hyrule elbowed him to warn him to stop.

"That was good thinking, Link." Warriors congratulated me. "How'd you do it?"

'I saw there was a explosive barrel so I used a fire arrow to make it explode.' I explained.

Warriors looked confused but Time interrupted. "Whatever you did, it was smart. Now, let's find a place to set up camp."

Link looked up and found that the sun had began to set.

They walked through the wilderness before coming to a clearing that had a freshwater stream cutting through it.

They lit a fire and sat down around it.
