| Through the Echo Flowers | |

| Meka had originally thought it was a good idea to leave Link and | |
| Jo to head to the lab on their own. Originally being the key | |
| word. She wasn't even half way home due to her continuously | |
| turning back before advancing again. They'd be fine, right? Jo | |
| was very defensive and Link was a strong attacker. However, she | |
| had left them without any form of medic. She was needed back | |
| home though... but this could be a life or death situation... | |
| She had to tell Kapral about the stars... but the person who | |
| told her about them could potentially be in danger. The boss | |
| monster pressed her back against a cold stone wall and slowly | |
| slid down the surface, making a soft noise as she made contact | |
| with the ground. | |
| "What do I do?" she said to no-one. | |
| "What do I do?" a blue flower mimicked. Soon more began to mimic | |
| the first. | |
| "What do I do? What do I do? What do I do? What do I do?" the | |
| flowers cried out. It seemed that every Echo flower within range | |
| was ever so eager to repeat her question, but naturally none | |
| would answer it. Meka sighed and listened to the questioning | |
| flowers and the crashing of a near by waterfall. She could hear | |
| something else among these sounds... it sounded almost like foot | |
| steps. | |
| "Hello?" She called out. | |
| "Hello? Hello? Hello?" The flowers repeated. | |

| Boomerang was taking a stroll towards the ruins. He had intended | |
| to stop at Grillby's for a snack. I can't wait! was his initial | |
| thought as he walked. "Just a quick patrol, a snack.." This time | |
| he spoke allowed. "But definitely the snack first," he said with | |
| a nod. | |
| He continued to walked, slowing to a stop when he heard a voice. | |
| He cringed a bit at the echoing flowers, but the echoes the | |
| emitted had him a bit concerned. He made his way towards the | |
| voices, stopping once more once he got to the flowers. He peered | |
| around until he saw the boss monster. Tilting his head he walked | |
| towards her, waving his hand in the air. "Hey," he called, to | |
| her, trying to ignore the flowers now mimicking him. | |

| The walk with Link was soon cut short as the familiar sound of | |
| Meka's voice reverberated across the cavern, a new voice soon | |
| following. "Meka?" Her soft voice was echoed around her, the | |
| sound expanding away from her within...... 'Echo flowers.' The | |
| words formed in her mind and soon her thoughts enveloped into a | |
| memory, a small smile forming on her lips. "Nya." The flowers | |
| echoed her noise, a giggle piercing the air and soon followed | |
| the previous echo, the giggle forming to a laugh. 'Why does this | |
| make me so happy? It's just flowers.' "Okay, Link, let's take a | |
| detour for a minute, I gotta show you something." Her now | |
| childish mind took over as she sat by an echo flower, her face | |
| beaming in joy. | |

| Meka first noticed Boomerang and then the sound of a familiar | |
| voice as the echo flowers mimicked Jo. | |
| "Oh, hello!" she called out to Boomerang. The boss monster got | |
| to her feet and walked slowly and hesitantly over to the other | |
| monster. | |
| "I h-haven't seen you before" she said as she got a better look | |
| at the golden canine kid. He appeared to be a similar age to | |
| her, perhaps even a bit younger. | |

| "Yeah... I kind of do my own thing..." Boomerang laughed a bit. | |
| "I take back routes and i don't see many monsters in 'em." He | |
| held out his hand. "Name's Boomerang." He greeted. He continued | |
| before she responded. "So, what don't you know what you should | |
| do about?" His ear twitched at the sound of the echoing flowers. | |
| He wanted to see who was there, but they seemed a less pressing | |
| matter than a young monster in a possible dilemma. | |

| Meka nodded and took Boomerang's extended hand, shaking it | |
| gently. She then blushed slightly, embarrassed that the echo | |
| flowers had alerted others of her dilemma. | |
| "My name is Meka" she started, "and I'm just a b-bit unsure as | |
| to whether or not I should return to my place of dwelling or if | |
| I should continue on my journey to h-help out a friend". She | |
| offered a sheepish grin and shook her head uncertainly. | |

| Boomerang tapped his chin. "That is a puzzler..." He moved his | |
| hands behind his head, kicking his foot a few times. "We you | |
| close to this friend? Were they in a real jam? Or is it best to | |
| just move on?" His voice came out as if the answer was obvious, | |
| but really he was sincerely asking her questions, trying to help | |
| her make the decision. | |

| Hearing the voices some more, her giggling subsided, turning the | |
| echo flower in the direction she assumed the conversation. | |
| 'Guess this game does come in handy. Who knew?' Her lips were | |
| sealed and her movements were almost unnoticeable, taking the | |
| conversation in through the small flower cupped in hands. | |
| 'What's this guy's deal? Were? More like are.' | |

| Now that she thought about it she had only just met Link so | |
| although they were getting along incredibly well she couldn't | |
| say she was close... she knew almost nothing of his past and | |
| wasn't sure if she would be included in his future. Especially | |
| if he was trying to get to the surface. Perhaps he could take | |
| care of himself... but his violent ways did tend to worry her, | |
| and she wasn't sure if Jo would be able to stop him from using | |
| his sword to quickly resolve conflict. | |
| "I guess it isn't just the friend that I'm worried about, but | |
| the monsters he may encounter along his journey. I can tell he | |
| has the kindness to give mercy, but not the patience" she said | |
| with a sigh. | |
| "My presence back home is simply needed due to the day growing | |
| old... and if I don't return home my parents will worry" the | |
| boss monster continued. | |

| Her unmoving lips opened as her mouth formed a gasped, a flicker | |
| of a memory appearing in the back of Jo's mind. 'Her.' A face | |
| couldn't be conjured from the memory, but a towering figure was | |
| all that was seen, the flare of red hair bright against the hazy | |
| memory. 'If we run into her.....' The thought was unfinished as | |
| she got up, walking back. 'I can't just walk into the situation | |
| like this. Link and I need a cover.' "Meka? Meka, you here?" Her | |
| voice echoed loudly against the cavern walls, the sound growing | |
| louder as it moved away from her. | |
