Chapter One

Puppet Zelda slipped past the people in Castle Town, and made her way into Hyrule field. It was mid-day and even though it would be better to search at night, she was hoping to run into a Poe or something of the sort. She would ask them of resurrection; and the power needed to perform one. Resurrecting her Master, she would have her love back and he would find a way for her to regain a true form. Placing her feet on the ground, she began to walk the paths of the field.

It would have been easier to just glide along the ground, rather than doing like mortals and walking, but Poes only appeared when one stepped near the area they rested. Her glowing hair flowed behind her as sauntered along the dirt paths. The light made her sick. Hyrule would be so much more beautiful under the rule of her Master. The thought of this world in ruins thrilled her. Yes, his castle would take the place of that blasted Princess's castle. The Hylians would fall into turmoil if they chose not to follow the rightful King of the World.

She smirked, yes. As soon as she brought her Master back to life, this world would be theres for the taking. After roaming Hyrule field for quite some time, lost in her thoughts of the world her Master would create, a cackle was heard from behind her. Turning, she came to face a purple Poe who's yellow eyes told stories of the world beyond the living.

"Ms. Puppet Zelda." The Poe bowed his head. Puppet Zelda scoffed at the sight.

"Don't call me that." She spat, stepping closer. "I have a question to ask of you Poe."

"Y-yes Ms.? Anything f-for you." Her eye twitched at the formal title again, obviously the simple minded Poe hadn't cared enough to correct himself.

"The power to resurrect. How is such a spell performed?" She questioned sternly.

"Oh. I don't think such a spell is possible Ms." Frustrated with the Poe and his ignorance, she snarled at him and began to form one of her own spells.

"Then you are useless." The Poe hadn't enough time to even put his hands up in defense or plead for his undead life before the spell hit him, and he burst into nothingness. She smiled at ability to finally use one of her spells again. They only worked on the dead, and it wasn't as thrilling as using one on the living, but it still satisfied her blood lust.

Of course such spells were possible, how else could her Master have returned so many times before? Stupid Poe. Hopefully she could come across one of intelligence. Even though Poes were just simple spirits, one of them must have some sort of a brain.

A movement near one of the trees she passed caught her eye, and she stopped dead in her tracks. Nothing appeared to be near the tree. Just before she turned away, she noticed two glowing red orbs in the shadow, watching her. It's a shade. How is it he sees me? She stepped towards the shade and he drew his sword, just as she drew hers.

She struck at him but he blocked it with his shield. She continued striking at the shade, trying not to let her questions overwhelm and distract her. The shade's sword pierced through her stomach; she didn't feel a thing. The shade was obviously confused. She had less than a second to make a move. Either kill the shade, or question him. Even though her bloodlust was strong, she pinned the shade to the ground.

"How is it you notice me? You're a shade! You're not dead." Her eyes met his red glowing ones, at the same time he noticed the markings up the side of her face, and her slightly glowing form.

"He made you." They spoke at the same time. Puppet Zelda released him, and they both found their feet, staring in disbelief at each other. She now noticed he was a shade of the Hero's. The resemblance was exact, had he not been dark with his crimson eyes.

"I mistook you for Princess Zelda." He whispered examining her. The thought of someone confusing her with that weak Princess made her angry. But she bit her tongue and held her temper, maybe this shade knew something she didn't.

"Why are you here? What's your purpose?" She demanded a bit rudely.

"Why should I tell you?" He responded, looking at her un-trusting.

"I see." She said as she began circling him. He was starting to annoy her, but she had to bite her tongue.

"What's yours?" He asked. She laughed.

"Why should I tell you Shade?" She answered sarcastically.

"Fine. My purpose was to defeat the Hero of Time and serve King Ganondorf." He gave in, his voice full of annoyance.

"Ah, so you failed." Puppet Zelda taunted.

"I'm going to take a guess here and say you were meant to defeat the Hero of Light. Well, I saw him crossing this field just the other day. I guess I'm not the only one who failed." She eyes narrowed at him. "Now I'm a bit busy at the moment, so if you'll excuse me-"

"Oh? And what is it you're so busy with Shade?"

"Serving my Master, bringing him back." He said smugly. The thought of sharing her Master made her sick.

"Really now? Because that requires magic I'm positive you're not capable of." She commented.

"And you are?" He raised his eyebrow, genuinely curious.

"Actually, yes." As soon as she said this, he knew he needed her.

"Then I could use your help."

"And in return?" She was going to use him for what she could considering she already planned on resurrecting her Master.

"What do you want?"

"A body." She answered simply.

"What?" He asked, bewildered. What did she mean a body?

"You heard me. A solid form. I had one when my Master first created me, but once the Hero defeated me, the Princess and I were split in two. She took the body, I remain a spirit." She answered calmly.

"I'm not sure how exactly I can get you a solid form. But I can do my best." She sighed and held out her hand.

"Fine. I'll help you resurrect our Master-"

"And I'll help you find a solid form." He finished taking her hand and shaking it.

"Until our Master is resurrected, we have an alliance. You watch my back, I'll watch yours. Once we complete our part of the bargain, we don't have to see each other again. Deal?"

"Deal."
