TW: blood and organs

When Steven is not looking and looking for herbs for Link's fever, Okapi signals Dark Steven to look after Link. Dark Steven is wondering, 'Is he the Heroes that Yusei mentioned, he looks sometimes familiar but he wears a blue tunic.' Link starts to have nightmares again, he sees a vast wasteland filled with horned kaiju. 'Here I'm I, I'm I having those nightmares again?'

(Song of healing is played backward while a massive swarm of glitching butterflies)

'what's going on, who's there.' Then a bloodied Steven with a scratch with a brief view of exposed intestine. Link got horrified at seeing him before starting to feel nausea of his condition. 'hmmph, Steven what happened I thought your fine just a minute ago' Steven that Link is talking to is actually Dark Steven linking him. 'what are you talking about I'm trying to contact you to help.' Link is to horrify to think, 'help with whom?'. Dark Steven replies, 'help heal the earth and help me.' Link is confused,' WHAT'. Dark Steven comes closer to Link in a zombie-like manner that Link froze in horror. 'no, not again. WHY CAN'T I RUN.' Sees a hallucination of Greyson as elk demon being maimed by gorosaurus while bleeding, other of Deathclaw being gutted by Godzilla's blast. Then he sees a bloodied eye lion that starred at Link. 'Stop it, get away from me.' Link uses his spin attack but everything is gone. Link sees Steven again, 'This is freaking, how come you're dead.' Dark Steven replies,' I'm not dead, I just revived two years ago from…just wake up and I'll explain everything.'

Link wakes up, sees Dark Steven (semi-corrupted) unharmed and clean. Link tearfully hugs Steven, 'Steven, thank the gods that you alright. So your Steven from this timeline, how is this possible other than Terra Nova origins.' Dark Steven replies, this is the original timeline. /the mere difference is that Terra Nova horned the new timeline about the evil of…Demon lords guided by The Fox spirit that took a form of despair and turned the earth as we see.' Steven comes back and sees Dark Steven, 'what going on, how myself is different than an alternative timeline.' Snips the Okapi looks down with depressed expression, 'You had a terrible fate, Steven.' Steven is shocked with a thousand-mile stare before turning pink, 'So sealing the Demon Lords before the Dark Amazon battle was for nothing when this happens'. Dark Steven replied, 'no every happens in Amazon is the same as your timeline except the part when the Evil is nuked, he was split into seven demon seals that cause a catastrophic even if is not checked.' Steven asked DS a question,' so everything about ultra worlds, Korra and her borderline issues, Meg, horses-human conflict and dino did happen in the original timeline.' DS responded, 'Yes when I'm not doing gem stuff, the Amazon part happens after the Diamonds but slower than your jouncy because mine took several years before I choose to become Teen Steven.' Shaymin is wondering, 'So Teen Steven meant Spinal and have issues with the future,' DS responded, 'that happened two years after Battle of Amazon, between that it was peace until I heard what happen to….my dear friend KO.' DS looks down with a very depressing expression. Link starts to wonder, 'what happened to my ancestor.' Steven responded to Link, 'Link is sensitive about it, properly something happens similarly like our timeline.' DS looks down with grief, 'sometimes when I was traveling the world, something had gone wrong.'

(a distorted song of (un)healing played backward then a slower version of Song of healing)

'a Crowmon created by evil necromancy is created by revived fallen champions known as Teen titans become distant from is propose because go Giratina's wishes. We may have a major rivalry until 2 years after he was defeated his spirit as a corrupted angel still lingers. They believed that they would change but they…they…..killed KO with Lion-o's corpse as a meat armor so he could Sword of Omens.' Link starts to relived that ROAR Lion-O may not be dead after all, 'I knew his still alive but….heartless.' DS starts to weep,' WHY I COULN"T SAVE HIM, WHY…..WOULD THAT CROWMON BETRYETED ME LIKE THAT? I THOUGHT WE ARE PASSIONATE RIVALS.'

Dark Steven start has a major meltdown while Snips jumps to action, 'Steven please you don't feel that that, I understand your rival relationship is complicated but you have to accept that shadow of light could turn to the dark side even if is a friendly rival.' DS cries become louder until it sounds more animalistic and less humane. Link sees a swarm of butterflies and sees undead/redead ROAR Thundercats while,' Link…you must tell…him that…..we need him, our past lives are sorry for his loss.' Link angrily responded, 'you killed my ancestor 200 years ago and you're sorry for killing the blood of Hero of Legend you Hero killing jerks.' ROAR Lion-o asked Link, 'why are feeling about me.' Their eyes start to bleed before fusing into Ornismon, 'Got away from me.' Grabs the master sword I'm gonna get, Zacain is wondering why Link is attacking black fog, 'Link is everything alright.'

Steven gets close to DS until he embraces him,'You don't have to feel bad not just because ROAR died on there on stupidity but I felt that experience too you know. Just look at Link, every time something bad happens, there is hope even when things get worse.' DS calms down and wonders where dd Link when, the fog disappears and reviles that Link looks some mantis mech and some lazer beaks. DS is concern that Link has so much to learn about,' we better tell him what happened to earth, Okapi already explains you back story.' DS is hesitated to explain it while clutching his stomach while Daxter hides underneath his jacket, 'Demon Lords avenge the fall of Nior Earth but it has to be done for the Zodiac Spirits that want change to happen regardless of chaos effect.' Okapi explains, 'he meant Nior Earth to make a change but is immune because the inhabitants are heartless that created by…The Fallen.' DS covered her mouth,' Snips remember, we don't even speak his name that caused temptations.' Link is curious to know, who is he like.' Steven told Link,' He is only referred to as The Fox or Kitsune by ancient Terra Novans that speaks dragon but what I saw is the appearance of all Zodiac Spirits.' Shaymin is confused about the 'fox' part,' The reason why called a fox even he's more draconic is beyond me.'

Link got carried away from his innocent curiosity,' Did one of the Demon lords hurt you so much that…they scared you' DS got triggered and starts to remember 200 years ago when he fought a Demon Lord. It was a dark stormy night, Steven looks at his pic of Redfire in sorrow but his Mega Charizard X cheer him up. They both are ready to fight one of the Demon lords until Charizard saw blood splattering in horror. The Crystal Gems are horrified by what happened, Greg weeps that he may die. Flashback ends and starts to summon a crane origami that sifts into a throwing star while in a Pink state. Link regrets what he said while Snips and Steven running towards him to calm him down. Steven comes close but start to see but starts to see blood oozing out of his chest and sees a swarm of butterflies becoming Lugia/ horned dragon bird guardian. Lugia utter wisdom, 'don't give to despair of your defeat. Allowed them to fight them and receive the broken pieces that your missing.' DS stopped glowing before Steven embrace,' I understand you are in so much pain but let us help you.' DS check makes sure Steven is still oozing but there actually nothing,'I must be seeing things lately.'

Meanwhile, Dark Link went to the Dark region called Umbra and remembers a massive battle with Watcher (raptor), Stalker (cougar), Scotcher (wolf-like) mechs with his army. But he was forced to left his army to defect defenses, they suffered casualties by driller worm mech but realized that they're attacking each other because there are mere pawns by a rogue commander under Gavin. Dark weeps from leaving them in the darkness.

Meanwhile, Link sees Snips the Okapi again but with a dark version of himself- Dark Link. Link is surprised while Dark Link commented,' we are not finished with our backstory.' He sees a vision of final years together, he sees Okapi be round up by Stalker mechs for slaves lead by slaver working with familiar Dakotaraptor. They attack the site until they become slaves undercover to save once endangered species. Dark Link bonded with a chieftain of a kingdom that enslaves anything with horns- kudus, elade. Dark trash the auction until he was whipped. The okapi gets subdued, looks like thing looks hopeless until Dark Link convinced to the chieftain that he's actually enslaved by a familiar friend. During an aerial attack, the slaver was impaled and the Okapi slaves are freed but at the cost of the chieftain. Then sees a familiar figure that looked after Dark Link as Dark's master, he felt that he faced him before weak and nearly broken.

Then another vision occurs in a peaceful sheikah tribe, Snips is encounter by the yiga clan. One of them is scared by Gavin, Snips bonded prisoners. Yiga tempted to burn down unless she fights them of.

(back to the real world)

Meanwhile, Steven senses a stalker called- EXD-9 until a DS shoots it with a shock arrow before Link uses finishing blow.

Zacian attempt uses an ancient weapon called the dark saber, the saber is the ultimate honor by uniting clans and a tribe of fierce warriors. Link and Zacain star to have a sparing match. Zacian uses backslash but Link uses a spin attack. Zacain is down but starts to have quotes about the decision with Chief of the sheikah whether or no he deserves such an honorable weapon. 'Zacian why you want to reunite us from Yiga with an ancient weapon. The yoga can disgrace our honor, they must be away from us. Unless you using it to reunite Digimon back to the people, maybe could help you for Digimon's honor.'

A rouge vision shows an enraged yellow horn carno controlled by witches, guided by Gavin until got punished for killing a tapir king. He used rage to fight Dark Link and a Charizard that Link finds it familiar. He found his brother that wanted avenge for being bisected by a familiar figure. They bait him by killing some villagers before capturing him before fleeing. A chivalry master Gallia but is killed by the yellow carno, but Charizard cut off Savage arm. The Carno flee which left Link confused.

Link felt something until he grabs something that stalking him, a mudskipper called Robonino. Link felt lichee seen him before until he felt Dark Link when he's electrocuted by the fish. Link felt he was attacked until he smacked the fish until he was horrified of his actions, 'No, what have I done.'

Meanwhile, in the desert, the bisected carno cyborg is wandering until he faces the enemy that bisected him. 'Is you, after years of enraged hated I'm here to set you ice and for all.' Once ready for the attack, he got hit by a dragon claw attack before dying. 'you have no possession to have the desire to snuff a life.'

Meanwhile, in lii'homeschool, the sister of the voodoo witch chieftain- Ventress end up their tp find her self. Amethyst introduced herself, 'Hey amethyst here, do you to hang with quartzes as their traditional Kage warriors while others are doing a traditional quartz ceremony. Ventress finds interesting but Amethyst fails to realize a snake marking near her chest, 'Interesting, tell me more about these ninjas'.

In the original timeline- the events are the same as all my fics except for the demon lords arcs (this never happened). So basically the only difference is any interaction with demon lords, TTG was not connected by one of the Demon Lords in the original timeline that becomes the downfall, even Greymon's story but without Sasuke, so Greymon did the hunting the Trolls part.

I don't think calling Dark Steven DS or Dark Steven, his name might shift it to Fuchsia

Dark Link and Snips were separated less than 10 years ago from a terrible fate/ future where most of their backstories took place. Their moments were loosely inspired by Star Wars the Clone Wars because I really love the interaction between Skywalker and Snips. Clone wars are defiantly the best show on CN even to this day, the atmosphere is bleak but in a beautiful way.

Dark Link appearance basically looks like BotW Link and Anakin appearance in CW because they kinda look alike even nearly a decade apart. Dark Link's clothing is basically black versos of Link's Champion tunic with a samurai-like robe (similar to Anakin). Dark Link has TP Link's voice to sound more intimidating compared to BotW Link. Dark Link's age is 26 while Link is TP Link's age (16). Dark Link has a conflict with Gavin similar to Dooku and Skywalker.

the voodoo witches from rouge vision are killed before the events by a powerful mech.

Snips the Okapi is under the care of DS because her bonded partner Plo was killed after Snips desolation, he did appear in her backstory.

Ventress is loosely based on the Clone Wars character but in this fic, she's a banshee

Star Wars Rebel is good as The clone wars

The tusk horses some tomes are called yak lions because of the intimidating appearance
