So, I've updated the poll on my profile to three choices, due to a request from Griffemon, who wants me to do a crossover between LoZ and Okami. Now, a quick question for Griffemon: Did you mean that you wanted the Wolf LinkxAmmy pairing, or did you just want to see them working together? Because I'm sorry if you wanted the pairing; cuz I just cannot write romance. Besides, I'm not a huge fan of Ammy pairings. I just like to imagine her staying single forever. But I can make them good friends if you want! By the way, should Wolf Link come to Nippon or should Ammy go to Hyrule?

(PS: It's spelled Amaterasu, not Amerterasu)

Please vote on the poll, only one person's done it so far! I'm going to be using the poll to determine what to write next!

Transparent steps led the way to a pearly opaque platform, standing directly in line with the tunnel. Dark and the Hero climbed up the steps and stood together, Dark feeling a sense of déjà vu for some reason. He gasped, seeing flashes of images- memories -in his mind. He dimly registered Link by his side, staring away into nothing, eyes glassy and unseeing- his consciousness was within, wrestling with the emotions and memories that had come from the sight of the portal opening. Dark saw what he saw, experienced what he experienced, all in one rush- like a flood- within the space of a single, short heartbeat.

Sand. Sand everywhere, spinning and dancing through the air-

Oppressing heat, seeming to crush all the oxygen from his lungs-

A statue, surrounded by a winding, curving rail-

The feeling of the wind, rushing through his clothes, cooling his parched body as he circled, higher and higher-

The joy of riding this amazing contraption, whizzing around and around-

The magnificence of the ancient mechanism, gears whirring and spinning to lower the great stone into place-

A black and white imp, seething with rage at the sight of the broken mirror; a single shard clinging to its frame-

Squinting through a blinding snowstorm, every instinct on edge-

Fending off a pack of territorial white wolves, all the while following the overpowering scent of reekfish-

Laughing in pure exaltation while snowboarding down the mountainside, close on the tail of a large furry beast man-

Standing before the transformed Yeta, a victim of the Mirror Shard's evil power-

Now he was back in the familiar grounds of Faron Woods, gliding by cucco across a large gap-

The magnificent Temple of Time, with soaring arches and moving statues far, far into the past-

Craning his neck at the ceiling, observing the movements of the Twilit Arachnid; Armogohma-

Traveling across Hyrule, gathering words for an ancient book from the Sky-

A cannon, buried deep beneath the grounds of Kakariko Village-

Braving the harsh winds of the City in the Sky, surrounded by the odd chicken-people known as Oocca-

Facing down the terrible dragon that had terrorized the City, pulled through the air by his clawshots in the blinding rain-

Riding that dragon like a bucking horse, stabbing his sword into the creature's back-

Returning to the Mirror Chamber, making the pieces whole once again-

That same imp from before, restored to a beautiful young woman-

A single tear was all it took, drifting through the air as if suspended like a puppet on a string-

The Mirror shattering into a million pieces, never to be reassembled again-

Her words echo back to him, resounding in his head-

"Only the true ruler of the Twili can destroy the Mirror of Twilight."

The Twilight Princess, departing forever-

An overwhelming feeling of shock, despair, and above all, sadness-

Dark was abruptly snapped back to reality when he felt himself begin to literally start to dissolve, his very essence coalescing into black twilight squares and getting sucked into the tunnel. Swallowing a sudden burst of fear, he only had time for one short yell before they were both sucked in.

Getting the very particles of your body pulled apart and sucked into a glowing tunnel to another world was a very... interesting sensation, to say the least. The trip itself only lasted about a second; barely enough time to even register what was really going on before Dark felt himself re-forming on solid ground, staggering slightly as he landed.

"Uh, what was that earlier? I think I was seeing your memories or something like that." Dark immediately said, turning to his Light Half. Link cocked his head to the side quizzically (like a wolf, Dark thought) and frowned.

"Yeah, I know I was reliving those, but I didn't know you were seeing them too. Maybe because we're technically different versions of each other?" He suggested. Dark nodded, accepting this easily. Thus, the matter was quickly dropped in light of other, more pressing issues- such as the fact that they had arrived at the Realm of Twilight, or Twilight Realm, or whatever you want to call it.

Dark's first thought upon drinking in the sights of the Twilight Realm was this: It was calm and peaceful, like a dream of sorts. This illusion was almost immediately shattered by the sound of yelling. Now, having landed just south of the central plaza and directly across from the palace, the two had a wonderful view of the sight of a very angry twili of some high rank (maybe a lord or a prince, judging by the fancy clothes) storming through the doors and yelling... uh... some very... colorful language. Not exactly something you'd say to your grandmother; let's leave it at that. Dark had to fight back a snicker at the sight of the man, his white markings flushed bright crimson and his orange eyes bugging out as if they were trying to escape from his head. Some of his angry tirade drifted through the air and reached the ears of the two hylians, who managed to catch the tail end of whatever he was screeching about.

"... An insult to my entire family, I say! An insult! Oh, I've never been so offended in my life! To think that you, YOU, of all of us, would turn me down?! ME, the highest-ranking lord in your court! How could-" At this point one of his escorts grabbed his arm and pulled the still-ranting twili away, dragging him into a floating carriage drawn by two twilit kargaroks. They could hear his muffled yells all the way across the island until the carriage was hastily jerked into motion, the driver urging the animals as fast as they could go. It then streaked across the orange skies to another island, far in the distance. Dark idly wondered how they got the carriage to float like that. Magic, perhaps?

"Oh, dear. It looks like Lord Ermil's in a bad mood today. I wonder what could have gotten his temper up? Ee he he!"

Link started at the sound of what Dark thought was a slightly creepy and possibly a bit deranged laugh. Recognition flickered over the Hero's face, and a large grin worthy of the Cheshire Cat spread over his features. Dark resisted the urge to laugh, reminded of a hopeful puppy.

The tall woman standing at the front of the palace was clearly the Princess of Twilight, as shown by her royal robes and striking appearance, as well as her distinctive way of talking- a permanent note of scorn and mischief in her voice. Very rarely was she heard sounding serious about anything, if the rumors were to be believed. It seemed that Princess Midna wasn't somebody you forgot easily.

Without warning, Link suddenly transformed into a wolf and bolted, streaking past the surprised twili scattered across the island and making a beeline straight for Midna. Dark stood, stunned, for a second before cursing under his breath and chasing after the love-struck Hero.

Unfortunately for him, the wolf is a streamlined animal built for speed and power, able to run far faster than any mere hylian. Therefore, Dark never stood a chance. Before he was halfway across the plaza Link was already sitting at Midna's feet, tongue lolling out happily and tail wagging like there was no tomorrow. He let out a hopeful bark and started panting, gazing up at the Princess with the biggest blue puppy eyes he could muster. The Twilight Princess looked down at him, shocked, before uttering one hopeful word.

"Link?"
