Chapter 1Alright, so here we have a little story I had percolating in my mind for some time now...It deals w/ Peach, Zelda, and Samus. Now the premise is feelings of weakness and not being able to fend for themselves and protect their respective kingdoms w/out the help of heroes who do everything for them and about finally achieving the power. The power is that of darkness, but the uses and princesses are pure, they want to simply be strong enough to defend themselves, their kingdoms, and all who need help in the world...Samus is already strong, so she wants to be able to properly protect the galaxy...but can they withstand corruption for long? Anyways, here are my plot ideas as I explained them on AIM w/ Starking...I am doing this b/c I want to see what all of you think of it before I actually go anywhere w/ this: *ALL PICTURES CREATED BY JULZ* Alright, so the power is similar to that of the Shadow Queen though, but they never read about that Nish the Dish (4:04:38 PM): all they heard of was great powers Nish the Dish (4:05:33 PM): so eventually, they find the item and activate it Nish the Dish (4:05:54 PM): Zelda goes first, and is surprised to find a dark mist swirling about Nish the Dish (4:06:14 PM): the energy shoots out and drapes around Zelda Nish the Dish (4:06:34 PM): she feels a dark power building up w/in her, getting stronger and stronger Nish the Dish (4:07:30 PM): after a while the, power begins to transform her Nish the Dish (4:07:57 PM): it gets to become too much for her and she can't even breathe, it's so much -Zelda's eyes begin rolling back as her skin turns a pale blue and the rest of her body changes w/ the power Nish the Dish (4:09:44 PM): she slowly ends up suffocating form all the pressure and goes still -Peach sees Zelda laying still and panics...she rushes over and starts CPR to revive her friend, pumping Zelda's chest furiously...Peach leans down to listen for a heartbeat, when suddenly Zelda is jolted back to life as the remaining power forces its way into her body, making it shake and convulse Nish the Dish (4:10:12 PM): when she awakens, her entire being has become quite intimidating...her skin now a mixture of dark grey and blue Nish the Dish (4:10:50 PM): Peach was thrown back in the sudden burst of power...Zelda is simply chuckling menacingly to herself Nish the Dish (4:24:08 PM): well, Peach is afraid of what has happened, but upon realizing Zelda is still herself, she accepts the offer to do the same Nish the Dish (4:25:46 PM): Zelda releases some power in the form of a dagger and stabs it into her Nish the Dish (4:27:01 PM): Peach is confused as the dagger dissolves away, but suddenly she clutches her chest in ever increasing pain Nish the Dish (4:28:15 PM): her heart is POUNDING immensely Nish the Dish (4:28:37 PM): she arcs her back on the ground as she tries to deal w/ it -Peach mixes screams w/ gasps as she grabs harder at her chest, her heart pounding faster and faster w/ every passing moment Nish the Dish (4:29:27 PM): eventually, she relaxes, trying to breathe, and Zelda begins to laugh insanely at all the power she has and unleashes more into Peach's heart to finish the process Nish the Dish (4:30:59 PM): her heart rate increases more and more, she can't breathe and gasps for air...and goes still Nish the Dish (4:31:52 PM): Zelda's laughter dies down...coming to her senses as she stares into the rolled back eyes of her now blue friend Nish the Dish (4:32:30 PM): Zelda panics and does the same as Peach, rushing down to revive her Nish the Dish (4:32:39 PM): nothing is working! Nish the Dish (4:33:06 PM): she panics and decides to go w/ a last ditch effort Nish the Dish (4:34:01 PM): she gets down, grabs Peach's breasts, and begins to unload bursts of electricity into Peach's heart Nish the Dish (4:34:59 PM): Zelda trades her laughter for sobs and tears as she watches Peach's blue body bounce w/ each jolt -Zelda starts crying as she shocks Peach repeatedly Nish the Dish (4:35:28 PM): eventually, Zelda feels a heartbeat through Peach's breast...her transformation has left her body completely blue, for she was out much longer than expected Nish the Dish (4:36:23 PM): after some recovering, Zelda and Peach begin to worry about how they look now Nish the Dish (4:36:43 PM): will people still accept them? will they be seen as demons? Nish the Dish (4:37:28 PM): but...they got what they wanted...they now have a developing power w/in that could lead them to fending off evils even greater than Ganondorf and Bowser combined Nish the Dish (4:39:15 PM): w/ a new determination, they vow to be honorable Princesses (maybe even Queens) Nish the Dish (4:39:52 PM): but they decide to maybe make this a trio...and look off to the stars above Nish the Dish (4:52:13 PM): alright, the only details I missed was how they fly their way up to the rim of the atmosphere Nish the Dish (4:52:59 PM): they forget the limit of their powers and start choking, but Peach discovers a new form, Lunatic Peach, which grants her the abilities of a cosmic being as well as psychic powers too and allows her to breathe in space Nish the Dish (4:53:26 PM): so she's good, but then looks over to see Zelda suffocating and shocking her own heart repeatedly to stay alive Nish the Dish (4:53:55 PM): Peach quickly goes over and kisses Zelda to breathe the power into her lungs Nish the Dish (4:54:10 PM): so now Zelda is all set Nish the Dish (4:55:28 PM): they eventually find where Samus' ship is and surprise her Nish the Dish (4:55:46 PM): then they talk and Samus begins to question how long they'll stay in control of the powers Nish the Dish (4:56:04 PM): that is when she tries to fight back -Samus turns to walk away as Peach yells "STOP" and calls up a forcefield of energy to contain the bounty hunter...Peach has forgotten how strong Samus is even w/out her Varia Suit and Samus begins to weaken the shield w/ a flurry of kicks -Eventually, Peach spontaneously uses some magic to chill her breathe and breathe it into the shield, causing it to frost over...Samus worries about how the box is now getting extremely cold and a frost begins to settle over her as she begins to shiver uncontrollably...Samus' body turns a light blue form the sub-zero temperatures and a nice layer of ice creeps across her body...Samus is now frozen in a layer of ice Zelda thinks Peach killed her, but Samus' heart is still beating...plus she's frozen and can't move and is ice cold+shiny, BUT she can still be moved and is soft Nish the Dish (4:56:24 PM): they pick her up and begin to fly back to their secret castle in Hyrule Nish the Dish (4:56:57 PM): on the way, Peach unfreezes Samus to give her the power to breathe in space... Nish the Dish (4:57:29 PM): then she freezes Samus right afterwards...cant have her exploiting that ability to make a swim for it Nish the Dish (4:57:33 PM): er...float Nish the Dish (4:57:50 PM): they're much more underhanded, but they don't want to be evil Nish the Dish (4:58:56 PM): they want to all have the power to protect their kingdoms and everyone out in the world who needs defending Nish the Dish (4:59:24 PM): instead of needing a hero do it for them....but Samus has the independence to help them learn this

Alright folks, this one will be in an actual story format, so it'll seem more organized than chapter 1. Ready? GO! Chapter 2----After a long flight, Peach and Zelda finally touch down in Hyrule w/ a frozen Samus in hand. They make themselves at home in an extra room in Zelda's castle, pose Samus in a comfy chair, and unfreeze her. Surprisingly, Samus appears much calmer than before and allows the princesses to explain how they got their power and exactly what they plan. Samus begins to ponder their offer of joining them, but isn't quite sure if it's a good decision. On one hand, the 3 of them must beware of corruption, but on the other hand, they could go toe to toe w/ evil and injustice in all forms (think of how the Space Pirates would freak out if they saw Samus w/ this power!). Samus tells Zelda and Peach how she'll need some time to decide and proceeds to call her ship to make its way to Hyrule...she can't risk not having her ride OR her equipment and Varia suit. Seeing that this decision may take a few days and Samus has a place to stay in the castle, Peach decides that she better head home to make sure everything is going well. It has been a few months since Mario's galactic adventure, but she cannot shirk her responsibilities as princess and ruler. As she starts her stroll (w/ her new power, this shouldn't take long), she notices that it's been winter for a while...they've been so busy that she forgot to dress properly. But as she makes her way back to the Mushroom Kingdom form Hyrule's side, someone else is doing the same form the opposite side, deep in the Shiver Mountains of the Mushroom Kingdom. ----She is the Crystal Queen. As she makes her trek down to the castle, she recounts the events that led her to this: A few years ago, Bowser had stolen the powerful star rod and imprisoned the 7 star spirits that protect it. The Crystal King and his wife, the Crystal Queen, were Bowser's strongest guards and protected the final star spirit together from the deep w/in their Crystal Palace, high atop Shiver Mountain. After learning that Mario and co. had defeated the other 6 of Bowser's hand selected guardians, the King knew that he must fight Mario alone, for he would never be so reckless as to endanger his beloved wife's life against such a powerful adversary. They were both quite intelligent and loved each other deeply, so the Queen knew exactly what he was thinking. So as Mario and co. made their way through the Palace, The Queen agreed to being put into a deep sleep and hidden at the deepest depths of the frozen pond in their throne room...as she slumbered, she prayed for her husband, for they both knew his chances of winning were fatally slim. The enchantment was set so that she wouldn't wake up until all danger, the TRUE danger, had subsided. Based on this, she didn't wake up until sometime after Mario had infiltrated Bowser's Castle and foiled his plans. The dangers of Bowser's dastardly plans were gone and the Crystal Queen awoke to a rather lonely Crystal Palace. The Queen rose form the pond and walked over to where the fighting had taken place...all that was left of her love was a shattered crown of ice. She was fairly weak and needed to regain some strength, but the hatred was swelling up inside her icy heart and she vowed to avenge her beloved by destroying Mario. But, all she could do was wait and build upon her powers and control of all things water and ice before she could ever dream of fighting such a mighty "hero". ----A few hours later, the Crystal Queen arrived in Toad Town, her hatred pushing her through the cold winter night. Lucky for her, Mario just happens to be out getting some groceries he forgot earlier that evening. As he walks by the frozen pond in the middle of town, the Crystal Queen attacks him. Thinking quickly, Mario slides the bag in his hands to the edge of the pond and defends himself w/ a swift kick. The Queen is slashing furiously at him like an animal, chilling the air even more w/ each swipe. Mario decides to heat up the battle and stomps the ice, bringing up a quick wall of flames to push her away. Being a wielder of ice, the fire seriously hurts her, and she falls to her knee, having far less stamina than her deceased partner. Mario dismisses this pale woman as a mere thief and quickly heads home w/ his groceries. The ice beneath the Queen gives way, due to the intense fight and the heat of Mario's fire. Unfortunately, she's too weak to break the thick ice that reforms over the hole and she is left trapped w/ no way out. She has no need to worry about drowning, but it would be obvious she isn't normal if she just floated there all night, so she decides to trick someone into breaking her out. ----The Crystal Queen floats herself up against the ice, lets her body go limp, and hangs her mouth open w/ eyes full of terror. She then periodically pretends to have chest spasms and slows her heartbeat to a crawl, no human would be able to hear it...the illusion of drowning is now complete, all she must do is wait for "help". Lucky for her, Peach had arrived home much earlier and decided to go for a late night stroll through town (she's much more confident now w/ her powers)...normally she and Zelda create the illusion of looking like they used to as to not draw suspicion , but at this hour, she can safely reveal her blue skin. She decides to frolic upon the ice for fun, but she hears something soft bumping up against what sounds like...the ice beneath her! She looks down and shrieks, finding a rather pale girl, convulsing and drowning under the ice. She immediately breaks the ice, pulls the girl out, and proceeds w/ CPR, pounding the girls chest, unable to hear or even feel a heartbeat! After many efforts, the Crystal Queen puts her heart back to normal. Peach feels for life and is overjoyed to find some. She then takes the girl back to the castle to warm her up and nurse her back to health. The Crystal Queen overhears Peach mutter, "Boy, Mario's fire powers would be pretty handy right now". The faking Queen smiles to herself as they reach Peach's castle. As Peach lays the girl down in an extra room, she goes to fetch some blankets and hot tea. The Crystal Queen silently gets up and uses the last bits of her power to ice the ground, gliding silently behind Peach. The princess feels a creepy chill and turns around quickly to defend herself, but the Crystal Queen quickly blows her icy breathe into the princess as she gasps in surprise...as Peach freezes in place, the Crystal Queen chuckles menacingly, for she now has the perfect bait to lure in Mario, maybe even see what Peach knows as well.

Chapter 3
----The Crystal Queen (CQ) caressed Peach's soft frozen face, quite pleased with how successful her plan was. *REMEMBER: In this story, people are still soft and movable when frozen!* ----She leaves the castle as silently as they had entered. The next day, Peach awakens to find herself trapped within a large room of ice. The walls seem to be reflecting the image of a rather pale woman, slowly moving closer and closer to her. The woman stops directly in front of Peach, who immediately recognizes her. The woman simply laughs at Peach's realization. C.Q.: "I am forever in your debt for 'saving' me. I do hope you're loving this icy abode as a gift...I've been needing a use for it for a long time now."
----The woman paces, almost in a gleeful skip, back and forth as Peach struggles to move, now realizing she is restrained in a near translucent crystal spire in the middle of the room. C.Q.: I knew you were THE Princess Peach immediately, the one always rescued by that accursed plumber, so you have the strong connection I had hoped for...but now I can see that you have a hidden potential of your own. You've sneaked about the bases of your captors several times, stealing information in ways that would put a ninja to shame. You've even SAVED Mario and an entire island single-handed from the very beast that kidnaps you, simply by tapping into the powers of your emotions and inner feelings and having perfect control over it all. To top it all off, you've joined Mario and your friends in adventures and saved the world with them on many occasions...you could even be considered one of, if not, THE BEST team member on said adventures. My my my, I hit the jackpot!!!" Peach: *astonished by C.Q.'s knowledge* "Well, I owe it all to my friends for teaching me all I know." *acting calm* "Also plenty of sporting events year-round play a big part. Besides, I'm the PRINCESS, my friends will notice I'm gone and come looking for me! I don't know why you hate Mario so much, but how do you plan on getting close to him? With me here, they'll come after you and the whole kingdom will be after you!" C.Q.: True, but they won't do anything if you're still there." ----She motions to her ears, where her earrings have somehow disappeared! C.Q.: "You were already unconscious within the ice before we left, but I used power stored in my earrings to create an exact ice replica of you! She looks, acts, talks, works identically to how you do." *She summons up an ice screen to show an image of the Peachy imposter* "As we speak, 'you' have now summoned Mario to the castle and had him arrest and thrown in the dungeon. Your imposter is sure to make this very believable, as if she has a plan, but really this is a simple way to corner and do away with the little man! I will give the command for Mario to be killed by 'you', the kingdom will go to chaos as their beloved, intelligent leader goes evil, and I will swoop in to take over!!!"
----The Crystal Queen laughs maniacally as she watches over the clone. Peach begins to panic, wishing she hadn't been so careless. She begins to wonder how she could possibly get help from Zelda and Samus, but can't think of anything. Suddenly she remembers that Zelda had helped Peach through the transformation process and they both had the same type of power, so maybe this means they are somewhat connected. As The Crystal Queen turns to talk with a minion, Peach begins to focus all her power on contacting Zelda, but needs a little boost in order to make sure she has a 100% chance of reaching them. The Queen notices this immediately and forms ice shards around Peach, slicing at her, but this pain is enough to help send the distress signal through. Peach nearly passes out, her energy spent, and slowly heals herself so the Queen won't notice. The Crystal Queen simply leaves. C.Q.: "I figured you had other friends outside the kingdom, no other explanation for such a power...hope they like a little surprise when they arrive."
----Back at Hyrule Castle, Zelda and Samus are training and taking it easy as the bounty hunter still struggles to decide. Zelda has been explaining everything in detail continuously, but nothing seems to convince Samus. Suddenly, Zelda feels a pulse of power identical to her own and knows exactly who it came from. Samus: "Is somehting wrong?" Zelda: "I...I feel distress and panic coming from the direction of the Mushroom Kingdom. Samus, your time to decide just got cut short, depending on what the reason for this signal was, I'll need an answer." Samus: "Ugh, I had a feeling this would happen. I hope nothing happened to our good friend Peach...she's probably fine, but don't worry so much. So which is faster transport: your fancy flying or my ship?"

Chapter 4----Zelda and Samus both arrived on the outskirts of Toad Town in Samus' ship. They decided that Zelda shouldn't fly so that she could conserve power, just in case somehting bad happens. Plus, if that "something bad" ends up happening and the princesses use too much power and get weak, the 3 of them will have a way to escape danger. Samus gets into a simple outfit of jeans and a shirt and puts on a special wrist device that calls her Varia Suit onto her, fully equipped, whenever she needs it and Zelda disguised her new dark look and energy as to not bring unneeded attention to them...she looked just like her old self. The town around the castle had an odd air about itself. The fact that 2 of Peach's closest friends form outside the kingdom: Princess Zelda of Hyrule and Samus Aran the intergalactic bounty hunter, made things even odder. Eventually, all the gossiping and stares from the people got to them, making Samus a bit anxious. Samus: "Alright Zelda, hurry up and ask these people what the hell is going on..." *starting to get impatient* "...before my Varia Suit asks FOR you." *she motions to her wrist device* Zelda: "You REALLY must work on your patience, Samus. I know that it isn't your style, but it pays to stay back and watch how others react to things." --Samus smirks and adjusts her shirt as she waits over by a shop. Zelda smiles and politely asks a nearby toad about what has happened. It seems something is going on with Peach and the arrival of Zelda and Samus is making everyone think this may be something serious if it involves them. Zelda bows, thanking the toad, and rushes back to Samus in a panic. Zelda: "Peach has arrested Mario and is holding him prisoner in her castle!!!" ----Zelda and Samus rushed through town as fast as possible, eager to find Peach and figure out why she arrested Mario. They burst through the front doors, yelling for directions to where ever Peach is. Toadsworth is there pacing back and forth, and upon seeing that the abrupt visitors are friends of Peach's, he quickly directs them to the basement and they take off immediately. The basement is lit, but it is still much darker than the rest of the castle...Zelda and Samus walk slowly, back to back, prepared for anything that may happen. Suddenly they hear the fast clicking of high heels as "Peach" runs up to great her friends. Zelda and Samus are relieved to see she is unharmed and that her disguising spell is working. She quickly turns them away from whatever she was doing in the basement and leads them up to the dining hall for some tea. The two simply nod and follow her. The 3 of them sit down with their cups and begin to chat. Peach is smiling form ear to ear, Zelda is happy and curious as to what is going on, and Samus is suspicious of everything....even the tea in her hand (probably because she'd never drink the stuff anyways). Zelda: "So umm...Peach, about what has happened recently...with the whole Mario incident and we really need to kn- Samus: "Why in the world would you throw Mario in a cell?! He's the honorable hero who saved you more times than one can count! You better have a good reason..." "Peach": "Oh my! Zelda, Samus, please understand, things have gotten quite complicated in the Mushroom Kingdom." *she gets up and begins pacing about the room* "Throughout his adventures, Mario defeated many foes to save us all...but why did he have to brutally injure and even kill them?! Such a 'valiant' hero should have been able to negotiate with them as an emissary of our kingdom." *she stops and looks down, saddened* "He could have brought them to our aid...it has gone unnoticed until now, but NO MORE! He will be punished for these deeds. Considering how many have fallen to him...the WORST of punishments may be needed." ----Zelda and Samus are shocked and disgusted by what their friend has said. Toadsworth and a few guards and castle attendants pass by as the 3 begin to bicker back and forth, Peach defending her position while Zelda and Samus try to show her how wrong she is. The guards try their best to hold them back from each other. Zelda is appauled by these words, wondering what could have gotten into Peach. She's always been a smart and gentle ruler, but now she is going to far! Zelda's power begins to show through her frustration, and suddenly she notices something. She can see Peach's aura! Peach's aura is a gentle pink, while this one is a sharp cyan...Zelda simply shoots Samus a glare, who knows EXACTLY what is going on, she even suspected it this whole time. Toadsworth panics as Samus launches a vase straight at Peach's head, lodging a shard in her forehead as her back arcs and her head flies back. To their distress, Peach begins to giggle like a crazy woman, her voice sounding identical to Peach's yet echoing, as she straightens up her back and yanks the glass out, her head now healed. Mirage Peach: "So, you finally figured it out, eh? I guess it was only a matter of time before you 2 figured it out. I guess your little Peach isn't quite capable of being so cruel? Oh well, this should be fun anyways!" --As she begins to laugh insanely, most of the color in her being begin to wash away, revealing the colorless copy that she is. Her skin and lips become a bleached white, the brightness in her blonde hair dulls considerably, the vibrant colors of the dress wash away, revealing nothing but sickly grays, purples, and oranges. She licks her lips as she prepares to fight. Toadsworth, the attendants, and all the guards quickly scatter. Mirage P.: "Mmmmm, that vase felt pretty good, I've never been one to shirk from pain...it actually feels nice! Oh, I can't wait to see you 2 squirm...I could use some entertainment and excitement!"

Chapter 5----Mirage Peach quickly fashions sharp claws of ice and a rapier with her power. She now has a naughty, yet dangerous and crazed look on her face as she licks the Rapier blade, ready to fight to the death. As she waits, Zelda, who changed back to her normal dark form, is focusing some sort of magic as Samus braces herself. Samus: "I guess I have no choice but to join you and Peach in this shadowy mojo. Are you sure you'll be able to fight if you're using some power to transform me? She doesn't look like a pushover." Zelda: "This going to take quite a bit of my power, but I still have all the magic and skills I've been honing ever since I was a little girl, I can easily hold her off until you're done!" --Samus, who has already gotten into her Zero Suit for better mobility and flexibility, closes her eyes as Zelda fashions a dark capsule around her. As the dark energy fills the capsule and surrounds Samus, Zelda finishes the process and rushes Mirage Peach, ready to stall for time until the transformation is complete. The girl giggles with excitement and quickly stabs at Zelda who dodges to the side, only to have Mirage Peach swipe her claws at her. Zelda quickly pushes her arm away and spins, using Farore's Wind to push Mirage Peach into a table, where she proceeds to deliver an axe kick while the girl is dazed on the ground. True to her name, Mirage Peach quickly phases out form under Zelda and reappears beside her, slashing the princess in the side w/ the rapier. Zelda shrieks and turns around, both slapping Mirage Peach and secretly activation Din's Fire, blowing it up directly on her! As the 2 jump back, ready for round 2, Zelda glances at the capsule, where Samus isn't quite ready yet, and then looks back at Mirage Peach. Zelda is definitely causing significant damage, but Mirage Peach's icy origins keep her from being burned (although she's in huge pain from it). Zelda holds her side and stops the bleeding, slightly worried about if she'll be alright, as Mirage Peach is now licking the blood off her rapier...this isn't going to be fun. Mirage P.: "Mmmm, so exhilarating! My pain, the anxiety, your panic and worried look....it's all so DELICIOUS!" ----As she begins to sway back and forth from the rush of pleasure, Zelda teleports in front of her and sweep kicks the girl, dropping her to the ground. Mirage Peach takes advantage of Peach's nimble dancer frame and quickly spins on her arms to get back up, spinning in place and icing up the floor of the room. As Zelda struggles to balance, MP shows how nimble Peach is by twirling and sliding across the ice and grabbing into Zelda's shoulder w/ her ice claws. As this happens, Zelda grabs MP w/ her magic and throws her to the ground. Zelda's eyes glow redder than usual as she becomes rather annoyed....she grabs onto Mirage Peach's chest and unleashes all the electricity she can muster. Mirage Peach's body convulses and shakes insanely as her chest heaves and bounces, her screaming bloody murder. As she goes still, Zelda begins to laugh maniacally at how powerful she is...she's starting to lose control. Suddenly she snaps back to normal as Mirage Peach slowly gets up, giggling like a school girl in a very creepy way. Zelda: "B-but how?! You dare to still challenge m-" Mirage P.: "Oh Zelda, that felt great and all, but I'm tired of this.....so..." --She pushes Zelda off and punches her in the gut. Zelda is in extreme pain as MP picks her up by her hair, waving the rapier in front of Zelda, pinching her cheeks to mock her. Just as she pulls her arm back to finish Zelda off, something grabs her arm! Mirage Peach drops the princess and looks back to see Samus looming over her, staring angrily with glowing yellow eyes...Samus' already intense presence is now almost terrifying, for the transformation is complete and she is almost like a shadow. ----Samus pulls Mirage Peach close and headbutts her, then proceeds to roundhouse kick her in the face, having focused kinetic energy into the sole of her Zero Suit's shoe to put more force behind it. Samus quickly leaps to the stunned girl before she can even slam into a wall and karate chops her in the neck. Mirage Peach finally counters and twists w/ the hit, throwing Samus into a nearby chair. The imposter twirls towards the dizzy Samus and makes her rapier even thicker as to end this now....but before she can eve think to swing, Samus materializes her arm cannon in a split second and blasts the rapier to shards. Mirage Peach is shocked at this defeat and Samus begins to interrogate her once Zelda gets up. Samus: "Time to explain exactly what the hell is going on here! Who sent you to kill Mario?" Mirage P.: "Hmph, like I'd ever tell you! My mistress is unbeatable! This is merely the begi-" *Samus promptly backhands her* Zelda: "Be grateful we didn't kill you where you stood!" Mirage Peach: "Tch, fine...my mistress, the Crystal Queen has wanted revenge on Mario for a long time due to the death of her husband by his hands. She will deliver swift destruction upon this kingdom and make it her own! I am merely a part of her power...and being that I can...." --MP promptly begins to glow, returning to her original form as the Crystal Queen's power and vanishes form the room, escaping. Samus and Zelda aren't worried, for Samus has gotten used to her new powers quickly. The two of them get back into disguise as their old selves and free Mario from his cell and ask him about the story behind the Crystal Queen's husband...Mario remembers a being named the Crystal King and explains it all. Zelda asks Mario to have Toadsworth address the kingdom about what has happened, and that Mario, Luigi, and all their friends must prepare for an invasion. The Crystal Queen may become impatient now and who knows what she may do. Luigi even heads off to go warn Daisy of what has transpired and that she could help (as well as protecting her own nation of Sarasaland). Once everything is ready, Zelda and Samus learn where they can get to the Shiver Mountains the fastest, and head off. Zelda: "I still remember her aura so maybe if I transfer that energy to you, Samus, we can track her down, get to the Queen, and save Peach!" Samus: "I see you're getting better at this adventuring business...just grab my hand and to transfer the energy signature, then I can use my suit's radar and map system to track her like you said. Ready?" Zelda: "More than I'll ever be!"

Chapter 6 [Part 1]----As Zelda and Samus quickly traversed the Shiver region, Mirage Peach had already stumbled into the Crystal Palace, reporting her failure and the power of Peach's friends to the Crystal Queen. Mirage Peach is still surprised at how much power these 3 hold. Peach laughs and cheers for Zelda and Samus as the Crystal Queen becomes furious and begins to slap her insolent henchwoman, eventually deciding on a new plan of attack. Crystal Queen: "Very well, I must thank you for accidentally showing me how strong they are. Go watch the progress of the 2 on their way...it's time the denizens of Shiver Mountain and I visited the castle!" Mirage Peach: "Yes mistress, I will report back when they enter the vicinity of the palace." *she kneels respectfully and rushes off* --As she leaves, the Crystal Queen turns to Peach and gives her a more thorough look over, now even more fascinated by the princess' blue skin and dark outfit. Seeing there is more to these girls she could have imagined, she laughs evilly and disappears like a cloud of snow in the wind. Little did she realize that Peach has been thinking of a way to escape this whole time. Peach eyes large crystalline lights hanging form the room's ceiling. She decides to channel some telekinetic power form her Lunatic Peach form. If she transforms out of her normal dark form, the Queen may notice the shift of power. So she simply uses some power to focus on the biggest light and swing it back and forth, building momentum. As the light begins to risk hitting the ceiling, she makes it's tether give out, sending the whole thing careening straight towards the spire she is trapped in. As it shatters and Peach daintily floats down to the ground, she smiles innocently, dusts off her dress, and makes her way to the palace entrance to meet up w/ her best friends. ----Peach slowly and stealthily explores the palace, marveling at how amazing the place is and the fact that she finally has the chance to explore it like Mario did with his friends. Although she can easily take on single guards now, she can't make noise and get caught again, so upon reaching a rather large doorway to what must be the throne room, Peach sings and lets her soft voice bounce of the icy walls, confusing the guards and letting her pass through. Upon entering, Peach realizes it is where the Crystal Queen has called forth her strongest guards and is explaining her plan of action against Peach's kingdom! Knowing this isn't where she needs to be, Peach quickly leaves and rushes in the other direction. Lucky for her, Zelda and Samus have arrived at the Crystal Palace and open the doors to find Peach looking around. Zelda: "Peach! How did you escape?!" Peach: "Well, I was able to channel some power and got a little "outside help" to break free." Samus: "Guess it was that weird psycho power, huh? Anyways, that weird imposter of you must've warned her boss that we're here, any idea where the big guy may be?" Peach: "The Crystal QUEEN is preparing her soldiers for an invasion, we must stop her now!" --The 3 of them quickly rush back to the large room Peach had stumbled into, only to find themselves surrounded upon entering. Mirage Peach's warning arrived just in time...the Queen simply smirks and points at them, at which point the soldiers charge in w/ Mirage Peach at the lead. As the Crystal Queen walks back to the giant stage she was speaking on, Peach notices and in a fit of disgust, pushes past all in her path, leaping off the head of her imposter like a spring board and attacks the Queen with her frying pan. She blocks the attack and pushes Peach back. Zelda and Samus continue to fight Mirage Peach yet again, who seems to be bent on retribution for earlier. Amidst the chaos, she gets tripped up. Samus materializes her grapple beam and grabs the girl, flinging her into the air, where Zelda brings up a light arrow and pierces the imposter's chest. Since she cannot actually die, Mirage Peach simply yells in disgust as she returns to her original form as the Queen's earrings. At this point the Queen stops fighting and brings up a large barrier, trapping her and Peach on the large throne podium...it now resembles an arena. Crystal Queen: "Now we wouldn't want the chaos to spill into our little duel, would we? I wonder how long a simple princess will survive even w/ those fancy tricks. I could always use 3 more beautiful ice sculptures..." Peach: "I'm not just some innocent princess, I'm Peach Toadstool! I am the kind and smart ruler of the Mushroom Kingdom and I'd never let you attack us just to fulfill your misguided thirst for vengeance! Samus! Zelda! I'm fine here, so I trust you 2 can handle them?" Samus: "Oh please, I've fought bigger hordes than this! We won't let this pregnant dog succeed Peach, you can count on us!" *Samus gives a quick thumbs up before blasting an incoming Clubba* Zelda: "Yes, failure is not an option, and these goons are nothing before our combined might! We will hold on as defense! You have our best wishes, good luck!" --With this, the 3 all smile at each other, at which the Crystal Queen merely scoffs and levitates into the air, her powers emanating like crazy. Peach, Zelda, and Samus quickly leap into action, ready to end this once and for all!!!

Chapter 6 [Part 2]----As Peach and the Crystal Queen slowly circle around each other, waiting for the other to make a move, Zelda and Samus continue to use their abilities to push back anyone who approached the barrier. Zelda teleports about to throw off the guards, then explodes her Din's Fire amidst clusters of confused foes. Samus' new dark form makes it so she doesn't need to be in her full Varia Suit to use all of its equipment and protection. All she has to do is think about it, and what she needs materializes in the appropriate place, the suit acting like an invisible barrier. Samus flips through the air and lassos soldiers with her grapple beam, using them like a whip to give herself space. Suddenly, Samus is slammed to the ground under a whole group of Clubbas, trying to crush her under their weight, Zelda simply takes a few steps back as Samus unleashes a power bomb blast and sends them flying with a battle cry, jumping straight back into the fray as Zelda calls forth magic sparks and combines them with a torrent of wind she has also called forth, throwing about soldiers as they get blasted. Eventually, the forces begin to die down as there are very few left now. The 2 look at each other and prepare for the coup de grace...Samus brings up her arm cannon and a second shadow one on her other hand, blasting a wave AND ice beam at the remaining forces, paralyzing them and freezing the ground so they can't move. Zelda simply charges up all her energy into a huge light arrow entwined in all the elements, she suddenly lets it loose and wipes out all the remaining forces...the 2 high five each other and look on to the podium where Peach is fighting. IMPORTANT:This battle and Peach's battle happen at the same time, we are now going back to watch Peach's fight once Samus and Zelda start theirs...You'll know when I'm back to the present, which is Samus and Zelda watching Peach fight. Btw, I recommend listening to "Egg Dragoon" from Sonic Unleashed while you read Peach's fight, it makes it even more epic! www.youtube.com/watch?v=a8Ebl5izSO0&feature=related----As Samus and Zelda begin to hold steady on defense, Peach begins to notice the area inside the barrier getting...colder. As she circles the Queen, she notices the Queen's brooch glow and then suddenly flash, freezing the floor and all surfaces withing the barrier, stalagmites and stalactites of ice forming everyone to make a worthy dueling ground. Peach can improve her traction by relocating a bit of power to her feet, but she'll need all she can muster against this witch. Peach holds her parasol steady as the Queen approaches, launching small shards of ice at Peach as she skids her foot along the ground. Peach reacts fast and spins her open parasol to easily block all the shards, thrusting it forward like a blade to stop the Queen. Upon doing so she flips the parasol against the ground and uses it to pole vault kick the Queen straight across the face, knocking her away. The Queen shakes with the sudden pain, then blows a chilling mist into the air, concealing herself within. Peach turns about trying to find the source of the Crystal Queen's echoing voice. Suddenly she feels something grab her by the throat and toss her up into the air, and as soon as she gets there, a large hand of ice swats her right into a stalagmite! She lets out a quick yelp, some blood coming forth w/ a cough, but she is ready to retaliate. She gets a solid footing on the object and pushes off, using her float ability to somewhat glide to the ground quickly. As she lands with the grace and nimble moves of a ballerina, the Queen growls in frustration and slams her foot and hands on the ground, causing a huge wave of crystal spikes to shoot forth at Peach. She quickly uses the speed built up during the glide to skate towards the Queen, dodging each wave with ease. Timing it just right, she reaches the Queen as another wave is released, allowing Peach an opening to drop her parasol over the Queen's head like a hammer and slashing her across the stomach with her crown. ----The Queen yells in pain and aggravation as she begins to smack Peach with all her rage, eventually sucker punching the princess in the gut and tossing her to the ground. Peach's eyes go wide as the Queen closes them up in a case of crystal w/in the battlefield. Looking through the walls, she can see that Zelda and Samus are easily holding their own. Her thought is interrupted as the Queen begins to stab into Peach's arms and legs with a small ice dagger. She smiles in a freaky manner as Peach cringes in sheer pain. Samus and Zelda finish their fight, only to realize what is going on, calling to their friend in the hopes that it may help. Peach hears them and quickly changes to her lunatic form in response. Deciding now is the best time to try and bring back an old technique, Peach uses her mind to conjure up a psych bomb and the resulting blast obliterates the case and knocks the Queen back against the barrier. Samus and Zelda are now cheering from outside the barrier as Peach struggles to regain her composure. The Queen begins sending out a flurry of shards as Peach blocks w/ her parasol and uses her mind to launch pieces of the cage right back at her...knowing she must end this quickly, Peach skates towards the Queen THROUGH the barrage of ice, getting cut up as she goes. As she picks up speed, Peach endures the pain and uses the telekinesis to mold the ice shards around her outstretched parasol and into the form of a lance! Crystal Queen: "Annoying little brat, just DIE ALREADY!!!" Peach: "HaaaaaaAAAAAAA!" --Peach quickly does a magnificent spinning leap as the Queen slashes at her one last time, looking to the air in shock and awe as Peach twirls like a top. Peach: "CHA!" --She twists her arm out as fast as possible, impaling the Crystal Queen with the lance. Suddenly the entire barrier falls, all the stalactites and stalagmites crumble and fall, opening a huge, deep crevasse in the throne room. The Queen stumbles back as the ice lance melts away and Peach's parasol falls to the ground. Crystal Queen: "My dear husband...I've failed you...Peach, you've done well...I must admit, you are a worthy princess, but I still despise you...may punishment come quickly to your enemies, and may DEATH do the same to you!!!" --The Queen gasps and falls back into the crevasse...Peach cannot tell how far down it goes...

Chapter 7
----And so it has been done...Peach, Zelda, and Samus have banded together as best friends and protectors of justice to vanquish the up and coming evil known as the Crystal Queen. The crevasses was too deep to tell, but they are fairly certain that the Crystal Queen could not survive that fall with her wound. Unfortunately, this is rather distressing to Peach, who would never kill unless she needed to. As they get back to the castle, Peach is rather shaken up...here she is, the kind, caring, innocent, merciful leader of the Mushroom Kingdom...and she KILLED a young woman w/out second thought! Zelda sees her friend's pain and holds her tightly in a hug as Samus offers words of solace. Back at the castle, the 3 don their disguising magic and Peach address her people about what has happened. She explains to Toadsworth who had attacked them and what the reason was. Toadsworth is instructed to go and inform the rest of the kingdom, for Peach must accompany Zelda and Samus back to Hyrule to make sure everything is safe. Toadsworth agrees and goes to find Mario as the 3 say their goodbyes and leave for Zelda's home. Zelda: "Considering how powerful she was, I wouldn't be surprised if the Queen had some connections to my kingdom as well...although highly unlikely, I can't shake the feeling that this may not be over." --The 3 nod silently and board Samus' ship. Time to relax and chat after a job well done! Upon reaching Hyrule Castle, Zelda sets up the extra room that Samus stayed in to house 2 people now. The girls quickly get ready for a good night's sleep. But, Peach's mind is still fraught w/ guilt.
----Peach suddenly wakes up all alone in a dark room. She calls out for Samus and Zelda, but all she sees is crimson light flooding the walls of what looks like a morbid version of her own castle! This is obviously a dream! Peach begins to run through the halls, following a voice almost like her own. Voice: "It was easy wasn't it?" Peach: "Was WHAT easy? Who the hell are you and why am I in this nightmarish world?" Voice: "Oh my, you've had these powers for quite sometime now, but you don't even recognize my presence in your mind? Tsk tsk, you really should pay attention more..." Peach: *growing impatient* "Stop messing around and just tell me what you found so easy!!!" Voice: "Why killing that ice girl of course! She wasn't much older than you, was she? I thought you couldn't kill anything unless it was deemed necessary?" Peach: "But, I didn't mean to...I just wanted to stop her, I never meant t-" Voice: *mocking tone* "Must be easy for you to make up reasons when you rule the kingdom...you can change the rules as you see fit!" Peach: *feeling insulted* "HOW DARE YOU!!! I would never do such a thing! I simply want to help keep peace with these powers!" Voice: "You don't realize these are powers of DARKNESS, do you? Using such powerful forces for good constantly would be like trying to push the positive sides of 2 magnets together! It.just.doesn't.WORK!!!" *the room shakes form the intensity of these words* Peach: "The laws of science make that impossible, but my WILL controls YOU! This all relies on my strength!" --As Peach makes this statement, everything grows darker as she approaches the door to what would be her throne room. The voice is cackling like a witch. Voice: "I never realized how funny you are! Oh, you think that now, but nobody can resist for long...the power will slowly take over w/out you even REALIZING it, and when it does..." *the voice goes to a quiet and sinister whisper* "everything you love will buuuuurn..." --Peach is frightened by this thought as she opens the door. On the ground as she enters is the bloody and beaten body of Samus, having lost an intense struggle. As Peach looks up, she is horrified to see herself sitting in the bloody throne, her bright dress ripped and bloody. She is sitting there staring back at Peach w/ a sinister yet sweet smile, her demonic eyes glowing through the crimson light as she sips a dark red liquid from a chalice. She seems to be holding some chain...beside her sits Zelda, beaten and chained up like a pet, staring off w/ soulless, blank eyes...and deep cuts on her body, the blood drained. Peach lets out a shriek so loud she wakes up Samus and Zelda. They simply rush over and comfort her as she sweats and cries. Zelda and Samus: "What the hell happened?!" Peach: "Girls...we must not let this power corrupt us, we just CAN'T!" --Realizing Peach may have seen something in her dreams, they understand the cryptic message and go back to sleep after some comforting words.

Chapter 8*A Few Days Later* ----Back at the partly ruined Crystal Palace, a lone figure is seen emerging from the pile of rubble that used to be part of the Crystal Queen's throne room. This figure reveals herself to be Mirage Peach as she struggles to pull something form the rubble. After a few grunts and groans, Mirage Peach finally succeeds in pulling her weakened mistress from the debris. The Queen has been slowly recovering form the battle. Mirage Peach: "Madam! Oh, thank goodness your injuries aren't too grave! I thought for sure that y-" Crystal Queen: *groaning in a feeble manner as she gets up* "Please, don't worry about me...I may have underestimated Peach and almost had my life ended, but I won't make that same mistake twice!" Mirage Peach: "Our powers alone aren't enough to stop their combined might...and they seem to get stronger through their friendship and struggles. Perhaps we should find allies...an old adversary from their respective pasts? While pretending to be Peach, I DID learn of a being known as the Shadow Queen, perhaps we could use Peach's genetic material w/in my being to find a way to resurrect her!" --The Crystal Queen begins to ponder this idea and eventually agrees, praising her assistant's quick thinking. Crystal Queen: "This sounds good, but we'll have to go to this homeland of Zelda's in order to learn of its past villains. I'm still recovering, so maybe I'll make you a little friend to back you up and protect me as we travel..." --The Crystal Queen taps her remaining earring, causing it to shine and take shape, forming into another Peach, similar to Mirage Peach, but more of a mix of greys and reds. The 2 "associates" hug and giggle at each other, then proceed to escort their mistress down Shiver Mountain, their destination: Hyrule. *A Few MORE Days Later* ----It has been a week since Peach, Zelda, and Samus' arrival in Hyrule and luckily Zelda has kept a watchful eye over everything. They have been regularly training together in order to hone, harness, and control their powers effectively. It seems Peach's nightmarish vision has left them all fairly worried. They have plenty of time to train though, for things have been relatively calm even when Zelda was gone. But, it would seem the Crysta Queen and her servants had arrived in town a few days ago. For the past few days, they have disguised themselves as normal Hylian women and been reading up on different evils to have fallen upon this land within the local library. As their mistress walks amongst the many shelves of books for more resources, the 2 impostors slowly search through one book together, sitting rather close together and holding hands. As they push the book away and start to snuggle closer, the Queen drops another book onto the table they're at with a resounding thud, giving them an unamused look. The duo quickly break away and get back to work, now signaling that they have found something. Mirage: "Mistress, Mirror Peach and I have found a perfect candidate for an ally!" Crystal Queen: "Excellent work you 2! This is what you can do when you aren't distracted by this 'attraction' you 2 have...and, why did you call her Mirror?" Mirror Peach: "Oh, well you never gave me a name! So Agey gave me one, so we can avoid confusion." *the 2 smile affectionately at each other* Crystal Queen: *looking down at the page they're on* "Now that we have that tidbit of info cleared up, it says this villain is named...Veran." Mirror Peach: "Indeed, she was an extremely powerful sorceress who could change her form, she impersonated a strong girl named Nayru and used this form to wreak havoc on Hyrule, only to be thwarted by one of Link's past incarnations." Mirage Peach: "Roro is correct, and to resurrect her would take considerable amounts of power" Mirror Peach: "...perhaps we can use the same power we'll need to resurrect the Shadow Queen and do both at once!" Crystal Queen: "My my, she's both beautiful AND powerful...you have both made me very proud with this...this land has plenty of ruins and secluded areas, so we could do this quite easily and undetected. Shall we scout a location and the proper materials for the ritual?" Mirage and Mirror: "We get to go shopping? Oh mistress, this is such a nice change!" Crystal Queen: "Don't get used to it, I'm still not too keen on those nicknames of yours." --The 3 quickly disappear from the library, as if they were never there, and proceed to go collect ritual materials.

Chapter 9----After a few playful hours of shopping for supplies, the trio scout out a prime location for their ritual. With bags of materials, the Crystal Queen leads her cheerful assistants deep into the Lost Woods, so far that nobody would ever notice their presence there. After an hour of preparation, a simple altar has been fashioned out of a tree stump in the clearing they occupy. As the sun disappears form the sky and brings darkness into the thick grove, a variety of purple, red, and black candles are lit around the altar, various types on incense burning in the center of the altar. The Crystal Queen motions for the 2 girls to stand atop the altar and they nervously do as they're told. The Queen's dark blue eyes begin to glow and her body begins to emanate dark energy as she chants mysterious incantations. A large barrier appears around the altar, trapping the girls inside as a dark vortex appears high above them on the altar. Mirage and Mirror Peach quickly hug each other as to try and not panic as they hear an ominous heartbeat bellowing from the vortex. The 2 girls begin to whimper and hold each other tighter, now feeling each others heartbeats....to their shock, their own hearts are beating in synchronization w/ the mysterious heartbeat! Mirage Peach quickly yells out to her Queen about what is going on. Mirage: "What the hell IS that thing?!" Crystal Queen: "The 2 women we're resurrecting were cruel and evil individuals...this is the portal to the underworld! Your idea, my dear girl, got me thinking: Why waste all our energy trying to reconstruct their bodies AND bring back their souls using the limited resources we have, when we can simply call forth the souls and put them in NEW vessels! You 2 have served me well and made me proud...now it is time for you to fulfill my desires one more time!" ----As the Crystal Queen smiles like a maniac and continues the chants, Mirage and Mirror Peach begin to attack the barrier, terrified of what is going to happen to them. The 2 of them are both screaming angrily and crying in betrayal as they try to escape their fate. Suddenly 2 cloud-looking souls burst from the vortex and swarm around Mirage an Mirror Peach like locusts, leaving them to run and roll about trying to fight back and keep their bodies. The Crystal Queen looks up at the barrier to see both Mirage and Mirror Peach on the ground, reaching out to their mistress for aid. The Queen simply waves back at them w/ a mocking and innocent smile on her face as the 2 are lifted into the air, the souls now forcing themselves into Mirage and Mirror Peach's bodies. Their eyes roll back as they gasp and convulse, trying to fight back against the powers, their hearts beating faster and faster. Suddenly a bright light envelopes the entire altar...when it disappears, the only beings left standing are Veran and the Shadow Queen. The Crystal Queen walks up to them and gives them both a welcoming kiss on the cheek, happy to finally meet her new allies. Crystal Queen: "My my, you 2 are even more dazzling and beautiful in person...and so strong." Veran: "It's good to be back, madam, I'm honored to meet my fellow female villains." *feeling her body* "Oh, how I missed my gorgeous figure!" Shadow Queen: "I must thank you for reviving me...this time, my revenge will be swift! Although I don't quite remember looking like this. Even after my first resurrection, my body was long gone." --The Shadow Queen's soul has taken on the general figure of Mirror Peach, but has the same shadowy look of the Shadow Queen herself, making her own new, unique body for herself. Crystal Queen: "Well your revenge on Peach will have to stay on the back burner for a few...she's MUCH stronger than you remember her, and our next target shall be Zelda. Veran, I'm guessing this would be your area of expertise?" --Veran simply laughs to herself and begins to think about how she could pay a visit to her "favorite" Hylian princess. The 3 simply cackle like witches, echoing through the darkness of the Lost Woods.

Chapter 10----A few days pass and Zelda shows Peach and Samus around her favorite spots in Hyrule and the 3 friends train and hone their abilities, attempting to gain more control over, understand, and further harness it. Although Samus is just as diligent, she begins to notice the sheer determination in Peach and Zelda. Both were a bit afraid of what may happen if they don't get things under control...who KNOWS what could happen if they went out of control! As the girls settled down and clean up for the day, Peach can feel the nightmare from the other night starting to fade from her memory...with a sigh of relief, she suggests that they go out to keep busy after all this hard work. Zelda and Samus nod as their Hylian host leads them into town. Peach: "So girls, what might you 2 be in the mood for tonight?" Samus: "Hmm, I can't remember the last time I saw a stage performance...that, and I'm hungry as all hell." *rubs her stomach* Zelda: "Well, I've heard about a nice trio of performing artists making a good bit of money w/in the past couple days...maybe we can check them out..." *all 3 of their stomachs growl* "AFTER we get some dinner..." --The 3 head out and enjoy a nice, well earned dinner after all their extensive training. ----The girls slowly approach an average sized building w/ flashy lights and plenty of signs advertising the show inside. It would seem the performers were having a rather slow day, for they were the only ones in the audience. The 3 performers poke their heads form behind the flowing curtains on stage to address their new guests. They were 3 mysterious and beautiful young girls. One was very pale with magenta hair, a light blue dancer's outfit, and a cold, yet inviting stare. The second girl had blonde hair and was a bit darker, almost a grayish hue, had dark make-up, and wore a menacing gown...like that of a mystic. The third, their leader, was a bit tanner w/ orange hair and a purple magician's cloak...the 3 of them look very skilled at their jobs, but also friendly and respectable. The leader steps forward as the other 2 open the curtains and prepare for their routines. Mage: "Welcome to the stage of our performance troupe! We've been fixing up the stage and working on our routines all day, so we figured nobody would show up...but lo and behold, here we have 3 ladies to test our practice on! So, w/out further adieu, let it begin!" ----Peach, Zelda, and Samus clap as they take their seats. Peach leans forward a bit almost like a little girl w/ her eyes lit up, Zelda sits properly w/ her eyes just as bright, and Samus leans back w/ her arms crossed, patiently waiting for something to "wow" her. A mesmerizing sitar tune can be hear echoing throughout throughout the closed building...the pale dancer strolls out, almost gliding across the stage as if it was ice. As the girls are hypnotized by her great spins, flips, and other moves, a spotlight centers on the back curtains where the mystic's shadow appears, tons of energy swirling about, making the light dance around the the pale girl as they both pose and perform. Eventually, torches along the stage begin to light up as the mage begins to channel electricity, water and fire through the streams of light and shadows being manipulated by the mystic. With the graceful dancer leaping across the stage, the magic of the mage and mystic help make this quite the spectacle. Without a doubt, our princesses and bounty hunter are quite entranced by this performance. ----Suddenly, the dancer begins to twirl about in place, faster than one could ever think possible, causing the shadows and light to swirl about her body and combine in a glittering cloud above her. As the mystic contains the cloud, the mage snaps her finger causing all types of elemental magic to strike the cloud and send it out across the seats. Peach, Zelda, and Samus all quickly stand up to applaud the show as the trio all come forth and bow. Suddenly, Zelda seems to lose her balance a bit and feel dizzy! As the girls go to help her, the same happens to them...Zelda mutters something about the cloud still hovering inside the entire room and Peach quickly glances at the trio, who seem to be chuckling together, their images becoming blurry and dark. Samus tries to break toward them, but succumbs and passes out w/ one last gasp. By this time, Peach has already fallen, still holding Zelda. The mysterious trio hop off the stage and reveal their true selves. The leader's tan grows darker and darker until it goes from black all the way to blue...the dancer's looks become even colder as the air around her chills...the mystic's shadow becomes immense dark power. Veran: "Sleep well, ladys..."

Chapter 11----The girls all awoke in a strange fortress. The gentle blue light of early morning flooded the overgrown foliage in the dungeon room they occupied. Peach was examining the room to figure out what those 3 performers were up to, while Samus simply sat in the corner facepalming over and over again. Zelda could hear her grumbling to herself. Samus: "I always thought this would never happen to me...I'm a BOUNTY HUNTER for f*ck's sake! I thought I could bypass the typical 'damsel in distress' spiel...yet here I am, stuck in a dungeon that nature is reclaiming and my 2 best friends happen to be PRINCESSES...fan-f*cking-tastic, my reputation is RUINED!" --After ignoring Samus and her plight, Zelda began to examine the room as well. The entire place was covered in plants and vines of sorts. The foliage choked every corner of the room tightly and seemed to have been reclaiming the fortress for some time now. The 3 girls vaguely remembered how the 3 troupe they watched the previous night had knocked them out for some reason. Before, the 3 of them could think of what to do next, a trio of evil laughs echoed through the room as the troupe leader finally appeared, now in her true form. The blue woman quickly walked forward, introducing herself as Veran...Zelda had never met this woman, but she seemed to recognize her form somewhere. Zelda: "Veran....YOU must be that notorious sorceress who was sealed away by one of Link's past incarnations! You possessed his time's lady Nayru to wreak havoc on the land, but HOW are you here now?!" Veran: "Precisely, my child, I'm the one and only Veran...you see, I've become good friends w/ 2 other like minded women, one of which resurrected me and the other was brought back to life as well. I believe the dainty looking girl over there recognizes them." *she motions to Peach, who grows nervous* --A shadowy mist seeps up from the ground and becomes a large ice crystal, shattering to reveal the Crystal and Shadow Queens. Crystal and Shadow Queens: "Long time no see, princess!" Peach: *looking disgusted* "Ugh, things just CAN'T get any worse..." ----The villains began to chat as Zelda and the others were still out of it from the gas cloud the other night... Shadow Queen: "You see, girls, we've decided that it's time we seek some revenge for what has been done to each of us.You 3 have grown fairly strong, and must be eliminated before we can rule it all...Veran, you can take over from here." Crystal Queen: "Indeed...this IS Hyrule, so it only fits that you take the helm on this one." --The queens back away as Veran quickly snaps her fingers, causing a multitude of the vines and plants to wrap around Zelda, Peach, and Samus. A full bush of thorns, vines, and deadly flowers wrap around and entangle Zelda painfully, as some flowers spray a paralyzing dust at Peach and Samus as 2 Venus flytraps appear and swallow them whole, slinking down through the floor to transport them deeper into the fortress. Zelda tries to yell, but a vine wraps around her neck tightly. Veran chuckles as she and her cohorts leave the room. Veran: "This power you 3 hold should be useful...we just need to extract it and discard the...SHELLS that contain them!" --They leave the room, and many other plants in the room drop to the ground, forming into plant guards, similar to Alraune's and other forest monsters. The vine around Zelda's neck drops away, but she soon gasps and cringes as multiple thorns shoot out of parts of the bush into her arms, legs, and the rest of her body. She begins to breathe in a shallow manner and hyperventilate...she's starting to sweat a bit as a burning pain rushes through her body and makes it a struggle to even get enough air in her lungs. The thorns contain a powerful poison that is now surging throughout her entire body, leaving grotesque green veins all over. The guards taunt the poor girl as she thrashes about in her leafy restraints, desperate for some air and to be rid of this pain. The pain becomes to much as she can hear her heart pounding too fast, then slowing rapidly...she's beginning to relax...but, in one last surge of strength, she activates her Triforce of Wisdom! Her hand begins to glow, as she uses the power to absorb the deadly poison, somehow becoming one w/ it through use of her dark powers. Her heartbeat becomes normal as she sighs, relieved of all the pain...her skin begins to take on the poisonous green hue of the thorns, the chemicals making her lips a sickly dead color. Her outfit takes on colors reminiscent of plant life...both dead and alive...her hair begins to gain some more color, but only enough to make the white into gray. The guards go wide-eyed and prepare themselves, as the plants are commanded to release her, thanks to the powers over nature that VENOM Zelda commands!

Chapter 12
----As Zelda stepped down from the jumble of plants that had held her prison, the guards quickly let out a battle cry and charged forward. Zelda, figuring this would make good ability practice, she makes a vine sprout out of the ground and trips one of the guards. The other 2 lunge forward, attacking w/ their weapons, Zelda dodges them both and smacks them both w/ a magically charged chop...leaving behind a small flower in the spots she hit. The 2 of them simply look at each other and growl at Zelda...she simple puts on an innocent look and snaps her fingers. The flowers stretch out and latch onto each other, yanking the guards together and smacking their heads together, turning them back into the plants they formed from. Zelda steps over to the guard getting up and gives and gives her a quick kiss on the cheek and continues walking. The guard tries to get up, but suddenly purple veins reach across her body, as poison causes her body to lock up. Zelda laughs and leaves the room, the last guard yelling in aggravation, rolling about like a log until finally changing back into a plant. The winding halls of this natural dungeon are almost like a maze, but Zelda can sense her friends, as they can do the same for her. After using her new powers to sneak past a few guards and break through some heavy duty doors, Zelda encounters 2 familiar ladies fighting off hordes of man eating plants...they're surrounded and she can't see them. Peach levitates up above the crowd to spy who just broke into the room. Peach: Oh look, it's Zelda! She's alright! If it's not too much trouble, could you thin out the horde on that end?" --Peach quickly breathes an icy mist on a big group of plants, freezing them, then smacking them into some more w/ her parasol, shattering them. Samus: "Yeah, some help would be appreciated, even being on the Space Pirate homeworld led me to less annoying ambushes!" --Samus takes her frustration out on a group of plants, launching energy disks into the whole crowd, slicing them all, then blasting ice plasma beam shots to thin out the whole horde. Zelda quickly builds up power and large vines spike out of the ground, crushing plants beneath them...as the fight ends, Peach and Samus give their friend a confused look over, astonished by her new look. Samus: "Oh, don't tell me you guys can get even MORE of these crazy powers?" Zelda: "So, if I got powers over nature, then I'm guessing we'll need to make use of all the plants around here...well then, shall we get going?" --The 3 ladies dusted themselves off, and headed out to the other end of the room, entering the next part of the fortress.

Chapter 13
----Thanks to the new powers of Zelda's venom form, the 3 young women could easily traverse the traps and armed forces littering the fortress. Whether it be Samus taking out guards from afar, Peach directing the group safely through traps, or Zelda creating new paths to get them closer to Veran, NOTHING seems to be able to stop them! As they continue down the path, an eery silence fills the corridor as the dark auras of the villainous women creep through every inch of the fortress. Samus: I Know this kind of silence all too well...we're getting close...I hope you 2 are ready...and I hope I am...
--NOT FINISHED!!! WILL CONTINUE SOON!!!--

I was meaning to say this when I saw the update at Arden's last night, but I really, REALLY love how you use the less-remembered villains like Veran for this. <3
