{Colin}

Slowly, I opened my tired eyes. Sitting up, I whimpered as my sides throbbed in pain.

'What time is it?' I thought groggily, swinging my legs over the bed. I extended my wings and floated down to the floor, turning around and noticing that Link was still sleeping. The covers were at his hips, his right hand on his stomach, and the left draped over the bed frame. I stared at his strong chest and defined abs, then his muscled arms.

"Ohmygod..."

Resisting the urge to glomp the sexiness out of him, I walked toward the window in between the beds, pulled out my cell phone, and checked the time:

7:00 AM

'The others should be up soon.' I thought, looking to Ganondorf, who, whatever the chances were, was getting up.

Aaaaaaand he only wears undergarments to bed.

For some reason, I was unable to shift my gaze.

I'm not attracted to him, but he's certainly a looker. He is extremely muscular and big, dark tanned skin and has brilliant orange hair. He has a strong face, also. Though, the fact that he's pretty much evil tears the thought of him being attractive out of my mind.

Curse me being polite.

...Not really.

"Good morning, Ganondorf." I greeted tentatively.

He actually walked toward where I was standing by the window.

"Good morning, fairy child."

I shivered. His somewhat raspy voice was cold; devoid of any warmth or friendliness.

"D-did you s-sleep w-well?" My voice quavered. He's such a creeper.

He rose his right hand and put it left shoulder. I could feel it through my thin nightshirt; it was as cold as ice.

I found that I couldn't move; I stayed rooted to the spot as he touched me.

He stopped after a few seconds, putting his hand back to his side. "It could have been better. It was rather cold." He walked to the bathroom and entered, locking the door behind him. The shower started running.

I stared at the bathroom door. Shaking my head, I returned to mine and Link's bunk bed. He was stirring.

I leaned forward on my knees, but I managed to forget my torso was bruised.

Silly me.

Letting out a loud whimper, I stood up straight faster than I should have; a moan escaped from my mouth.

Link sat up straight quickly, and I clamped both hands over the culprit that made the sounds.

He looked at me strangely. "Your body still hurts?"

"N-no."

"Why are you making pained noises?"

"I-I... I..."

He moved his legs over the bed frame. "Come here."

I floated toward him, stopping by where he was sitting. He beckoned me to turn around, so I did.

What I didn't expect was that he wrapped his arms around my waist, pulling me down so I was sitting in between his legs on the bed.

Link's chin rested on the top of my head, his hands were now around my tender middle, rubbing the bruises softly through my shirt, causing me to wiggle in odd comfort. I shivered as his lips met the left side of my neck.

"Relax. I'll make the pain go away."

I made a squeaky noise, my body now pressed against Link's chest. He hugged me tenderly, his lips grazing my exposed neck again, sucking on the soft flesh.

It was weird how we were intimate already.

I let out a relaxed sigh, tilting my head back as he kept kissing me, his arms massaging my injuries. He stopped the work with his lips, and then resumed hugging me from behind. I turned my body toward him, and our eyes met.

He leaned forward and captured my lips in a chaste kiss, then smiled at me. I blushed, then turned my body, burying my face into his chest to hide it, but face plus hot chest plus shyness equals more blush than before. Idly, I traced a hand down his chest, feeling its strength, then his abs, causing him to chuckle.

"Your body is amazing, Link."

"Thanks, babe."

My face burning, Link motioned for me to stand up. I did so, and we both headed toward our closets to get dressed.

Afterward, I took one of the Megavitamins Dr. Mario prescribed. I sure hope that they work...

After we were all showered, Link and I were sitting on his bunk, chatting about random things. He was wearing a blue tunic and hat, and I was in a black sweatshirt with a gray undershirt, and dark gray pants.

I looked over to Ganondorf, who was in his usual suit, but dark brown accented the black. He was glaring at me. Creepy. Maybe he doesn't like me?

I checked my cell phone again:

7:54

"Um, do you want to head down to breakfast?"

"You go." Came Link's reply, his gaze harsh on Ganondorf, who had stopped glaring at me and was now doing the same to Link.

This can't end well.

I floated toward the door slowly, opening it. I turned, looking the archenemies over, then exited. After closing the door, I pondered eavesdropping...

'No, that isn't right.' I shook my head and walked towards Caitlin's room, knocking three times.

Footsteps.

The door creaked open, and Samus was there. I flinched. Damn it! She's about three inches taller than me. Samus was wearing a hot pink body suit which showed her voluptuous form, and was now putting her long, bright, yellow-blonde hair into a ponytail.

"Oh. It's you."

"Good morning, Samus." My voice was indifferent.

"What do you want?" Such a smug expression.

"I came here to see Caitlin and Peach, but I have a question to ask you."

"What?"

"Did you really have to hit me so hard? Did I say something wrong, or do you normally perform that way in battle?"

She scoffed. Retreating back into the room, leaving the door open for me. I walked inside and shut it.

"Good morning, Colin!" Peach was so cheery. I smiled. "Caitlin's in the shower." I watched as she smoothed down her red dress. The white lace is so pretty!

"Good morning, Peach. Thank you."

Peach walked over to her vanity table by the television, sitting down and applying whatever makeup she wore.

Samus was sitting on her bed, the lower bunk. Oddly, she beckoned me to come over.

Flying across the room, I sat down next to her. "Yes, Samus?"

"Why don't you hit girls? Your attacks didn't hurt at all."

"...?" Weird question. "It doesn't feel right to me."

"What, you think we can't take it?"

"Girls are stronger than men. They can give birth. Just hitting people seems wrong to me."

Samus huffed. "Then, why are you even here?"

I paused. I didn't even know the answer to that question. "Master Hand invited me? Try asking him, I'm sorry."

"Whatever."

"Samus, I really don't think men are superior to women. I believe in chivalry."

She frowned at me. "That's why you have difficulty?" She then muttered something that sounded like 'Chivalry is outdated.'

"Yes."

"Don't do it when we fight."

"Yes, Samus." If she's going to be hurt about it... I'll do what she says.

"I did hit you harder than I should have, not that I had to hold back at all. Sorry."

"It's alright." I smiled at her

Simultaneously, we stood up, and she shook my right hand with her own.

"Hi, sweetie!" Caitlin hugged me good morning after she was finished bathing and had changed, donning a green shirt and boots with brown pants.

I winced, but she didn't notice. "Good morning."

"I'm done!" I heard Peach yell triumphantly.

"Time?" Samus' voice.

Caitlin checked her phone after detaching from me. "Eight o'clock."

Peach looked angry as Caitlin and Samus laughed, all of us heading to breakfast. Did I miss something?

-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-

After we arrived in the dining room, I looked around. No sign of Link or Ganondorf. I hope they aren't fighting in the room!

"Link isn't here." I said, double checking the room. "I'll go see if he's upstairs."

"Okay, Colin." Peach smiled at me. She was the only one around; Samus was chatting to Snake and Caitlin was sitting by... Ethan? Weird.

She put her right hand on my left and smiled again. I grinned at her, noticing she was as tall as I was, then flexed my wings and floated back to the stairs to the dormitories as she found a seat.

-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-

I flew up the stairs quickly, my hair flapping around my face wildly. I landed on the top of the staircase, and patted my hair down, smiling.

Flying is so bomb!

The hallway seemed desolate as I headed toward the end of it. It was dark. I guess lights are on for a limited time?

Room thirteen was soon before me. I pulled out my access card and swiped it on the machine next to the door. Noticing a message on its screen: 'ACCESS GRANTED', I heard it unlock.

"Link? Ganondorf?" I pushed the door open quietly, my voice low. Why was I so quiet, anyway? I headed inside, closing the door behind me with little noise. The room was dark, much like the hallway was. I couldn't see very well. Floating across the huge room, I noticed something:

It was empty. Weird.

I stopped in front of the window, its curtains closed. "I guess no one's here..."

Suddenly, I felt a hand roughly grip my shoulder. It spun me around, and I was looking into glowing, brick red eyes.

I almost let out a scream, but his other hand had covered my mouth. Not good.

"Hello, Colin." Dark Link said, leaning over so that our eyes met, red to blue. Dark Link has very dark, blackish skin, pale gray-blonde hair, and is wearing a black tunic and hat. His hand went from my mouth to my throat, then moving his lips to my ear, he said in his voice identical to Link's, only... darker, "You will not make any noise." He squeezed slightly, asserting superiority.

My eyes widened in fear. This can't be happening!

I shivered as his right hand went from my left shoulder and down to my sensitive side. At that point, he barked an order.

"Take off this thing you're wearing. I want to look at you." Dark Link gestured to my usual bulky sweatshirt.

I pondered a moment. 'Now or never.' Both of my arms were folded on my upper chest. As quickly as I could, I lashed out with both hands; trying to push Dark away with all my might.

...Which isn't very much. Though, as soon as I got a bit away, I flexed my wings and took to the air! He couldn't catch me now!

...Or so I thought. Dark grabbed my ankle and pulled hard. I fell to the floor with a thud, and he was looming over me ominously. I sat on my rear, scooting backwards until I reached the windowsill. Dark Link walked over cautiously, and stopped. He crouched down to my eye level, smiling.

The next thing I registered was pain. Dark's hand had traveled so fast... I hadn't seen it coming. Not a slap or a choke, he punched me right across my right cheek, causing me to fall sideways onto the floor with a yelp.

"Pity. I thought you were smarter than that." Dark taunted me as he sat me up, soothing the injury with the back of his right hand. I trembled under his touch. How could I be so weak?

"Why are you doing this, Dark Link?" I asked, my voice a whisper.

"Because I want to." He stopped touching my face.

"Who else are you doing this to?" I prayed that no one else was being hurt.

"No one, but if you don't comply... I might have to hurt Peach,"

I froze.

"Zelda," he continued nonchalantly.

I hugged myself.

With a wicked smirk, "Caitlin."

'That tears it!' I rose faster than I thought I could, startling Dark as I kicked him in the chest, sprawling him on the floor. I floated forward quickly. "You...!" I seethed.

Dark stood up, chuckling. He was the exact height and build Link was. "That wasn't smart, little one." He rushed forward, and I cast a shield spell, repelling him. Being a fairy has its benefits!

"Like I said, if you don't comply, I'll do more than just hurt them." Dark threatened as I dropped the magic shield.

I faltered. 'I wouldn't put it past him to actually try something...' Dark took this opportunity to charge again and punch me in the middle.

Bruises...

I collapsed to my knees instantly, muffling a scream in my hands as I folded under Dark's superior strength.

"Aw, does it hurt?" He walked over to my fragile form, squatting in front of me where I sat on my legs.

I whimpered. How could I be so weak?

Dark tipped my head up with his thumb, then used his other hand to wipe the coming tears from my eyes. "Don't cry, little one. I didn't mean to hurt you." He cooed.

I felt like I was going to vomit. How dare he lie to me so openly? 'It's better than this happening to one of the girls...' I thought silently, clutching my stomach.

He stood, and then hauled me up roughly, causing me to moan in pain.

"Is there something wrong with your body, little one?"

"I was in a Battle--" I muttered silently.

"Let me see."

'Give him what he wants for the girls' sake...' My mind played it over and over like a mantra. I lifted my black sweatshirt and gray undershirt to reveal my petite, bruised figure.

"Look at you." Dark crouched and ran an oddly warm hand across my injuries, including the new bruise forming from his recent strike. "You're so small and tender."

His words caused me to blush. How could I be so weak?

Dark stood tall again, and I put down my clothes, feeling safer than before. Suddenly, he pulled me into a hug, wrapping his arms around my waist, pressing our bodies together...

'Just like Link does...' I thought. The only difference was that my arms are under his stronger ones, so I couldn't move them, and my face was was pressed against his shoulder and turned toward his body. I waited for it to be over.

After a bit, he stopped the embrace and stepped back, his hands now on my shoulders. I stared at Dark, my gaze inquisitive, asking why he was doing this to me. He stared back, his expression unreadable.

I was caught unawares as Dark pulled me toward him, and sure enough, his lips met mine. A few seconds into the kiss, he licked my bottom lip to get me to open my mouth.

Naturally, I refused.

Dark's grip on my shoulders tightened to the point where I let out a muffled scream, thus opening my mouth and granting him access. His tongue danced around my unresponsive one. Clearly frustrated, he bit down on my lower lip, causing it to bleed. I moaned in pain again, continuing only for the girls' sake.

His tongue moved around mine once more, and I brushed against his gently.

So wrong...

He was eventually satisfied, and we broke apart, breathing deeply. I swallowed the blood in my mouth, and then gasped as he pulled my sweatshirt's collar to the side, exposing my lower neck and shoulder area. I closed my eyes and whimpered as he bit down and sucked, marking me with his teeth and a hickey.

"Mine." Dark growled possessively, licking the tender flesh. "I own you, do you understand?"

I had no choice but to nod. How could I be so weak?

Dark straightened. "Good." He ran a hand across my cheek as he did so. I shivered under his touch. "Oh, and before I forget, break up with Link. I don't want to take care of it." He put his hand to his side.

I gasped in surprise and looked up at him. "B-b-but..."

The loud noise of the smack resounded through the room. I clutched my right cheek with both hands and quivered.

"No buts. It will be done tonight. Do you understand, little one? Otherwise... Caitlin--" He brought up my most sensitive spot.

"Okay, I'll do it! Just don't touch her, or even speak of her!" I said desperately, looking Dark in his glowing red eyes with my cerulean ones. "I'll do anything you want, just don't--"

"I'm glad we've come to an understanding." Dark cut me off, smirking. "Do not tell anyone of this. Otherwise, there will be... complications."

I nodded my head, looking to the ground and folding my hands. 'She's safe...'

Dark tilted my head up again, sealing the deal with another kiss. I closed my eyes and kissed him back, reaching for the back of his head and pulling it toward me, to show that I mean business.

He smirked again. "Good. I won't touch Caitlin or even speak of her. You will meet me in the courtyard every night at eleven o'clock by the gate. It's very dark there. No one will see us."

I nodded. My body shook slightly as the gravity of this situation dawned on me.

"I'm done with you... for now." Dark caressed my tender right cheek with his left hand.

He stopped as I started to tremble. I watched as he turned around and walked to the middle of the room, disappearing into the shadows.

I paused briefly before flying to the bathroom as fast as I could wondering only one thing: Was there anything I could do?

-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-

"Colin! Where have you been? Master Hand has already made announcements."

"I'm sorry, Caitlin. I was looking for Link and Ganondorf. ...Mostly Link."

"Peach did say you were looking for him. I think they both walked in after you left, they were probably training before breakfast. Link said you were in the shower? He checked the room for you."

"Yeah. I didn't see them in the dormitory, so I took a shower."

"Link said you had already taken one?"

"Hey, don't laugh! There's nothing wrong with taking showers."

"...? Colin? Are you upset?"

"Of course not."

"Well, here. I saved this piece of toast for you."

"Oh, yay! Toast! Thanks, bestie!"

"Whoa, punkin. Slow down, you'll choke."

"I won't, don't worry. Did Master Hand announce anything important?"

"Yeah, good thing you're here, there's another practice battle today."

-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-

Caitlin and I rushed into the Battle room, thanking Peach as we sat down in two chairs that she had saved for us between her and Link. I sat down next to him, forcing a smile.

Master Hand began to speak, "Smashers! I shall get right to the point. We will hold another practice battle for one of the newcomers. Caitlin!" Master Hand called, the voice that had called Samus' and mine before yelled 'Caitlin' soon after. "If you'll come up to the first teleporter please."

I watched as my best friend walked up to the teleporter, no trace of fear, only competitive determination.

"Are there any volunteers?"

I looked around the room. Ness, Toon Link, Fox, and Jigglypuff raised their hands.

"Fox! Get on up here." After about a second, the voice on the computer let out a 'Fox', and the anthropomorphic fox walked up to the second teleporter.

I poked Link and Peach before floating toward the front of the room, the two right behind me. We sat in chairs closest to the main television, Peach on my left, and Link on my right.

"It will be a two stock match on Caitlin's Manor." Caitlin, Ethan, and I perked up at this. "If you'll enter the teleporters..."

Caitlin and Fox stepped inside the now open transportation units.

I started to get an uneasy feeling. I hope Caitlin will be alright... As if on cue, Caitlin sent me a smile and a thumbs up. Next, I looked to my left hand, and saw that Peach had taken it within her right, squeezing gently. She smiled at me reassuringly.

"She'll be fine, Colin." Link said, patting my shoulder. "She can hold her own."

I nodded as the teleporter doors closed, the television screen now showing in red letters:

READY TO FIGHT!
