The Flag Of Crab
Part 5
Raco
beamed at Nitram with fire in his eyes. ¡§Don¡¦t listen to him, Soldier.
He¡¦s a liar.¡¨
¡§I
helped you, Remember?¡¨ Nitram protested. ¡§I will help you as I have helped
you. I promise.¡¨
¡§He
said so last time, and see, what¡¦s the result?¡¨ Raco bellowed. ¡§He¡¦s
using you!¡¨
¡§I
won¡¦t trap you,¡¨ Nitram insisted. ¡§If I wanted to use you, I would not
have waited until today.¡¨
¡§The
choice is yours, Soldier,¡¨ Raco urged.
¡§The
choice is yours, Soldier,¡¨ Nitram repeated.
¡§What
shall I do, Nho?¡¨ Soldier felt like crying. He did not know whom to believe.
He did not know what Raco wanted to say, but it was unlikely that he told lies.
Nho kept silent.
Raco
pleaded, ¡§Time is running up, Soldier.¡¨
At
length Soldier announced, ¡§All of us will go.¡¨ Nitram grinned happily and
thanked him but Raco was near to explode. He ran a few yards ahead of them and
walked alone. Soldier was desperate. ¡§Let¡¦s go,¡¨ he suggested.
So
they went off for the Triforces. Raco walked in the front, followed by Nho and
Soldier, and Nitram reared. They did not say a word to each other except Soldier
asked Nho something silently. Raco was still infuriated. He made no sound for
communication. Nitram stayed quiet as well. It was as if once he said a word
Raco would explode as a bomb.
They
came to the side of a cliff. About 5 metres down was the roaring sea. Soldier
gazed at the immense sea. There was a familiarity of it, but Soldier could not
tell what. Without thinking, he dived into the sea, leaving the other three
behind astonished.
The
seawater was so cold, so refreshing. Soldier was enjoying those wonderful
sensations the water gave him when suddenly he saw something in his mind again.
There was a membrane protecting a sphere thing inside it deep under the sea. A
yellow dot was sparkling in the centre of the sphere. Then, he recalled the day
inside the King¡¦s Room. Everything clearly went into his mind.
¡§This
is the road to obtain the Triforces,¡¨ Yor Crab the King told Soldier secretly.
¡§We must get the Triforces so that peace can stay in our kingdom eternally. A
powerful clam called Nomis Clam guards the Triforces. Nomis is a friend of mine.
You can find him inside Hyrule. Pass this message for me to him: Restore power.
He will know what to do.¡¨
¡§Soldier!¡¨
Soldier came back to the real world. He head was dizzy. It was Nho who was
holding him and shouting. ¡§Soldier! Are you all right?¡¨
¡§We have to go,¡¨ Soldier announced firmly. ¡§We have to go to Hyrule to find the power.¡¨
