A/N: I did not keep you waiting for who-knows-how-long. XD Nope.
Reviewers:
Aedrex: I haven't seen it either, and I'm glad you find it interesting. :p
G01den W01f 11: Not stupid, eh? We'll see about that one. And Link's spirit maturing? Hadn't actually thought about it…t'would appear I've made an unintentional writing…thingy…'cause I wasn't thinking about it. At all.
NekoKitty13: Well, now you'll know! :3

Water's Flow
Chapter 1: Begin
Where to begin…well, I would suppose that it began with the war.
For I knew exactly what Ganondorf would do with the being known as Dark Link, and, to use a commonly-said phrase of the latter, I'd be damned if I was about to allow that to happen.
So it was that I began my crusade, beginning with the shadow himself.

Perhaps appearing in a bright flash of light before the shadow was not the best of plans.
Dark Link flinched visibly, throwing his arms up as if to protect himself from a blow. "Din damn it!" As the glow receded, he squinted to get a better view. Once he had affirmed my presence, a cocky grin wormed its way across his face. In a husky voice, he chuckled, "Well, well, well. If it isn't the Goddess of Wisdom herself, come to pay little old me a visit. To what do I own this pleasure, hm?"
"Dark Link," I replied, weighing my words carefully, "surely you know why I have come?"
The specter smirked. "And why wouldn't I? You came to win me back." Perceptive. "Unfortunately," he continued, "I'm not interested in siding with you. You'll find that I care little for any one of you damned gods, or your hero."
I fought to retain my composure. How dare he?! The nerve of him…
"Dark Link, you know not of the consequences. I implore you, please return to your makers."
"My makers?" the shade spat, then laughed derisively. "You think that way? For a goddess supposed to embody wisdom, you're not smart at all."
"You…" I narrowed my eyes.
Dark Link stood up from his position on the bed, his form flickering in the dimness of the room. "Don't act like you don't know what you did. And don't even pretend to think that I don't either."
"Dark Link, I…" I frowned. "You must know that I never intended to harm you…"
The silhouette of the hero crossed his arms. "Well, you did. Now leave my sight, before I make you."
I scowled, losing my neutral expression, then disappeared.
This was by no means over.

A/N: Characters…you give 'em an inch, they take it three miles.
