Dark

I open my eyes feeling completely sick, someone helps me up and into the bathroom, I don't even bother to look at them as I spill my guts into the toilet. I feel someone pushing my hair out of my face rubbing gentle circles into my back. I looked up to see Sheik standing next to me, I blinked in shock.

"I thought you were dead." He says softly tucking my silver bangs behind my ear. I feel myself getting sick all over again, I go back to the toilet throwing up one last time. I'm left panting and heaving as Sheik holds me up.

"Where are we?" I say ignoring his earlier statement. He looks around the red and black room barely lit by torches.

"Hyrule castle." he says helping me over to the sink where I thoroughly wash my mouth of the acidic taste.

"Were you the one who knocked me unconscious?" I question looking up at him feeling a bit strange since he's not wearing his gauze. The last time I saw his face was back when… we were at Lon Lon Ranch in the moonlight. I felt an ache in my heart making a knot form in my throat.

"Yes, Ganon got here around the same time as you, I didn't want you to panic so I took you that way." That was before he decided to kill me for Zelda's sake.

"Are you the only one here?" He nodded looking down at the ground solemnly.

"Princess Zelda was killed, she has been reborn already but I have no idea where she is." I chuckle humorlessly before shaking my head. This is fucking fantastic, I'm stuck with the man who tried to murder me.

"We have to get out of here, we have to get back to Link." he stared at me uncertain. "You were with Link? He knows you are alive?" I nod watching his shoulders relax.

"I'm happy you are alive." Sheik says placing a gentle hand on my cheek. I blink staring at him as he places his lips against mine…. What the fuck is going on?

"S-Sheik?" I question as he pulls away, his eyes are glittering with an emotion I've only seen once before in Links eyes. He walks forward making me back up until I hit the door behind me. He is staring at me with a predatory gaze and I'm frozen, I don't know what to do.

"I love Link Sheik, please stop." I beg as he leans his forehead on my shoulder. "I'm sorry Dark, I didn't mean to scare you." He murmurs pulling away from me.

"I-its okay, we need to get out of here." He nods and opens the door for me to walk out into the castle. The place is still grey filled all of Ganons servants.

"What's wrong with this place?" I ask as Sheik leads me down back to the main floor of the castle.

"After Link disappeared Ganon came back, he almost got his hands on the triforce but before he could Zelda's father ended up wishing for Hyrule to never fall into Ganons hands. That's when the flood happened, I was trapped here after Zelda died." I went back to the blocks that I was standing next to before Sheik knocked me out.

"So the flood was the cause of the king of Hyrule making a wish to keep Hyrule from Ganon? That takes the if I can't have it nobody can saying to a whole new level." I say as I run my hands down one of the large stone blocks before us.

"Sheik, help me move these. There might be something useful." I point out as he walks around to the side opposite from me.

"Alright!" He shouts and gets ready to push his own block as I place my hands on the large stone block before me pushing as hard as I can to make sure it falls into place. We do this until the blocks fall into place creating the triforce on the ground that begins glowing with an unearthly golden light. Sheik and I stare at each other as the light begins to seep into the ground making it change back to its original color. The place that was once frozen in time now has its color once more and then a realization hits me and I whirl around to see all the monsters in the room had come back to life. I turn to see a large statue of what looks like Link giving way to a small underground staircase.

"What the fuck is this?" Sheik hisses grabbing my wrist and dragging me up to the staircase that had just opened up for us. We run down the stairs coming to a small altar that is covered in windows portraying the sages from our time painted on them. I walked up onto a small pedestal seeing the master sword imbedded in the middle of the room.

"The master sword?" Sheik questions looking from me to the sword before us.

"You didn't know it was here?" I say as I step forward to examine the blade that Link had left behind.

"No, I thought Link had taken it with him and Zelda never mentioned anything about it after he left." Sheik says as he places a hand on the holy blade only to be thrown back by its power.

"looks like it's not a fan of you either." I joked making Sheik narrow his crimson eyes at me. I raised my hands in surrender chuckling slightly before trying myself to pull the blade from its altar. When I touched the hilt I didn't feel any pain only a surge of power as I held the blade Link held during our quest.

"How is it that you can touch the holy blade yet I cannot?" Sheik questions as he stands up and brushes himself off.

"Because I am essentially Link, because I am his shadow I am allowed all the powers he possesses." I say swing the sword a few times to get a feel for it.

"How is that possible if Ganon created you?" I look up at him and sigh as I put the sword in my sheath.

"Ganon didn't create me, I was already alive and about ten maybe eleven years old when that asshole kidnapped me. I was the prince of the Twilight realm before I was forced to be that bastards slave."

Sheik stares at me confused as I begin walking back to the staircase that we had just used to get out of there.

"So then you aren't actually evil?" Sheik murmurs to himself hoping I won't hear that part but I do anyways.

"That's what I tried to tell everyone, no one but Link believed me." I scoffed as I look around the room counting at least 30 enemies on the first floor a mix of Moblins and Iron Knuckles.

"There's no way we can fight our way out of here, sword or no sword." I whisper to Sheik who is following my gaze.

"There's a door behind us to a small court yard, we can get out of the castle through there." I nod following quietly behind Sheik, just as were about to get outside we get noticed. I dive out of the way as an Iron knuckle slams its sword down between me and Sheik. I pull my sword from its sheath and face him. I twirl my sword in my hand and wait for him to attack. He leaps forward slamming his sword down hard again causing me to roll out of the way before slicing at his back making his armor fall to a heap at our feet.

"I'm sorry did I do that?" I taunt smirking and knowing full well this thing understands me. It growls before lunging at me again this time kicking me square in the chest making me fly back into a column. I wince as I hit the column hard before sliding to the ground. I watch in shock as Sheik grabs the master sword thrusting it into the Iron knuckles stomach. I thought he couldn't touch it? I stand as he blinks at his hands and I follow his eyes to see his hands are severely burned and his sandy skin is an angry red.

"you shouldn't of done that. I could have handled it." I chide making him grunt in response as I go through my pouch finding some gauze to wrap around his hands. I feel guilty as he winces every time I wrap the bandages around a new finger.

"come on lets go before the rest of these guys catch us and those burns become the least of our problems." I urged as I pulled the master sword from the dead Iron knuckle swing it once to rid it of the blood before putting it back in my sheath. I followed behind Sheik to see a strange circle illuminating the water, it's magic I know that much. But where does it lead?

"Dark." Sheik whimpered tugging on my tunic and pointing out towards our surroundings. We were in Hyrule alright, I could see Death mountain and the Zoras domain far off in the distance. But it was all flooded, it was as if Hyrule castle was the only area that had a bubble of air around it. "this is worse than I thought, we need to find a way to figure out where the hell Link is." I clamp my hand around Sheiks wrist pulling him with me into the water towards the small ring of purple glowing within the water. Sheik and I hold on to each other's hands tightly and take a deep breath as the magic helps us make our ascent to the surface. Finally after a few moments we are gasping as we break the surface of the water.

"MISS TETRA, THERES TWO MEN DROWING ON THE SIDE OF THE BOAT." I hear a voice call before a rope is being thrown to Sheik and I. We grip the rope tightly as we are pulled onto the ship lying on wet pile on some wooden floor boards.

"Who are you and what are you doing here?" Sheik sits up helping me up as we catch our breaths.

"Dark Link, Sheik. We are looking for someone. A blonde he looks exactly like me but with blue eyes and a green tunic. Have you seen him?" I ask as pull off my hat wringing the water out of it.

"If you're talking about who I'm thinking of yes, I remember that brat. He was back at outset when I first saw him. Link was it?" I nod looking at the girl helplessly. I stare at her curiously she looks a lot like Sheik aside from the blue eyes of course.

"Can you take me to him?" She narrows her eyes at me.

"We are pirates not a fucking courier service, but I can help you if you get something back for me that your friend stole from me." Stole? Link actually stole something, there's no way were talking about the same person.

"Uh…okay just get me to him." She smiles a mischievous glint in her eyes as she offers me her hand to shake. I sigh softly putting my hand in hers and shaking it.

"Go down stairs and make yourselves comfortable and change your clothes you'll catch cold like that." I look to Sheik who nods, we both follow a pirate to a small room in the lower deck. It has a bed big enough for both of us as well as a small bathroom, we turn to a pirate who hands us a change of clothes I'm grateful to see its black.

"I'll take a shower first, try not to fill the room with water." I say going straight to the bathroom and striping out of my clothes, I take a fast shower changing into my new pirate clothes with a sigh. I walk out making Sheik look up from his spot by the window.

"The pirate look suits you." He says with a grin and I have the urge to throw something at him.

"Just go shower damn it!" I growl stomping over to the bed scooting as far towards the corner as I could. I listened to the sounds of the shower running and thought of Link. He probably thinks I'm dead right now." I sigh huddling into the blanket for warmth as Sheik comes out of the bathroom.

"Dark?" I turn my head slightly to lock eyes with crimson ones as Sheik gets into the bed with me.

"I'm really happy you're here with me, I don't think I would have ever gotten out of the castle without you as an encouragement." I sighed turning to face him brushing his bangs out of his eyes.

"I'm glad I'm not alone too. I don't think I could find Link on my own." I whisper dropping my hand to the mattress between us.

"We will find him, I promise you Dark." Sheik murmurs as he pulls me into his chest and holds me tightly. He's surprisingly warm and I can't even push him away so I fall asleep there in the comfort of someone who I knew I didn't trust.

"Night Sheik." I mumble as he tightens his grip.

"Night Dark." I smile closing my eyes allowing myself to finally fall asleep.
