Hey guys! Srry I haven't posted in a REALLY long time. I've been very busy. I was planning on uploading something last weekend but my family and friends were celebrating my 14th birthday that was on Friday. Anyway... here is an all new story! I'm actually using this one for something called NaNoRaMo. It's about Dark Link. This takes place before Link and Zelda knew Ganondorf was evil and he acted like any other noble would. This story is a bit unique because the first Chapter doesn't start until after the first two posts. The first two chapters posted will be sort of like previews. They'll be called Mistake 1 and Mistake 2. Please enjoy!

Darkness. As long as he could remember it had been his home. His creation. His sustenance. His life. But after a while it had gotten a bit boring. There was absolutely nothing to do in the realm of darkness. Then came the day when the shadow got taken from the darkness and forced into the burning, searing light. The man who had brought him out promised to protect him from the light. As long as the shadow served him. The shadow agreed. That was the shadow's first mistake.
Mistake 1- Serving the Taker
Dark Link was sitting in his usual place on the window sill in the throne room. It was dark outside and he was always careful to leave if the sun came up. He gazed across the pale blue desert, his crimson eyes reflecting the stars that still twinkled in the sky. The pale moonlight reflected off of his silver hair making it glow slightly. Across the desert was a world he'd never been allowed to see. Hyrule. The world of light. This castle was his home as much as his prison. A snarl stretched across Dark Link's pale lips as he saw the start of sunlight creeping it's way across the desert which was slowly being dyed yellow. He jumped off the window sill and landing on his feet lightly. It was time to wake his siblings. Their master was to wake soon, they had to make his breakfast, and start their chores. As he walked through the halls to the room he and his siblings shared, he was thinking of how annoying it was that he always woke up first in this damned place. It was probably because he wanted to get an hour or two of darkness before the light came. His younger brother he understood. He was a little kid and enjoyed sleeping in. But his older sister? She was three years older than Dark Link and she needed to be woken every morning. He walked into the bedroom quietly and looked to the bed at the far side. His older sister was still sleeping peacefully. Her long white hair, that was still somehow flawlessly straight, cascaded over her pale shoulders. She looked so different without makeup. In Dark's opinion she didn't need it. His sister was quite lovely without it, but she insisted she needed it. Next to her their youngest brother was pressed up against his sister. His hair was quite long for a boy's, not quite as long as Dark's yet but almost, and was a deep shade of purple. His skin was as pale as Dark and his sister. The boy must have had nightmares and slipped into bed with their sister. Dark Link walked up to his siblings and gently shook his sister's shoulder. She groaned sleepily and opened her crimson eyes to look at him.
"Good morning Dark Zelda. Time to wake up." he said with a slight smirk at her tired expression.
"Already?" she asked sleepily. When Dark Link nodded she sighed and got up. As she was getting ready for the day he woke up his younger brother. It took a couple of minutes to persuade him to open his dark cerulean eyes and look up at him.
"Morning Shadow Link." Dark said gently.
Shadow didn't answer, only nodded and sat up. By the time Dark Link finished making sure that his younger brother got ready for the day and didn't go back to sleep Dark Zelda was already dressed and ready. She was just finishing applying some black eyeshadow. Dark Zelda turned to her two brothers with a smile.
"Everyone ready?"
Her brothers both nodded. The three of them walked out into the hall, making sure to make no noise as they passed their master's room, and made their way to the kitchen. They all started their normal routine. Shadow Link set the table for their master, Dark Zelda started cleaning, and, of course, Dark started cooking their master's breakfast. He got out his master's favorite wine. Well, at least he thought it was his favorite. He didn't dislike it at least. A bell rang on the kitchen's wall. Though they heard it everyday, the shadows all flinched. That meant that their master was awake and sitting at the table waiting. Dark Link's hands shook. If there was anything wrong with his master's food the punishment would go to him. Dark Zelda took the plate of food, giving Dark a warning look, and took it out to their master. Shadow took the bottle and followed his sister. Dark Link however waited a couple seconds, his eyes closed trying to steady his breathing. Once he was sure he was calm he walked out. His master was sitting at the table eating his siblings off to the side. He walked over to them and stood next to Shadow. He had realized his mistake when he agreed to serve Ganondorf. For now he lived every moment in fear, hoping against hope that his master wouldn't punish him. Right now he was silently praying that his master would be pleased.
That was fun!
Dark Link: Sure. If you like to be protreid as a weakling.
You are not! I just wanted to make it sound dramatic.
Dark Link: *scoff* Whatever.
I had fun writing it. Now shut up or I'll make the next chapter even more painful than it needs to be!
Dark Link: NO! NO! ANYTHING BUT THAT!
Good. Now say goodbye.
Dark Link: *grumbles*
DO IT!
Dark Link: *sigh* Good bye all readers. We hope you enjoyed reading this as much as Vaati12 had writing it.
That'll do...for now. Anyway, sorry again for not posting and I'll try to post again soon. Bye nii!
Dark Link: See ya.
