Yeah, I'm still here, I've been focusing on a few other stories for a while. Writing these files is seriously hard, you know? For this episode I browsed the net for almost and hour and used all the info I got from the Dracula and Salem's Lot. (Stephen King is a God!) I also spoke with a friend of mine who's obsessed with vampires and used my Vincent Valentine info. Well, yeah, it's true that I'm a 2die4Vincent-fan, but can it be seen? Huh? And he wasn't a lot of help anyway. (Vincent: "I don't care what you're doing, so much as the idiotic way that you're doing it.")
Yeah, the Oniwega are my invention. Of course, not completely because they hate garlic and roses and stuff like that, but all vampires hate them! I can't make unbeatable vampires, no matter how much I wanted to… I hope you like them, I used lots of time creating them! I'd really like to hear your comments!
And I want to warn you, this part has an extremely shocking event. I hope you won't flame me because you haven't seen the end of this episode and you don't know what I have in my pockets. I'm so sorry already!
Oh, by the way, I really do appreciate reviews as long as they aren't about me. You can say almost anything about my story, but as you don't know who I am, I hope you won't review me. Why am I saying this? Because I got two reviews reviewing my story and me. Okay, they didn't praise the story either, but I really don't think I'm retarded. (That would be an insult to the retarded people!) And maybe I stink when it comes to writing fanfics, but I like writing them. Thanks still for reviewing He-Man and Trogdor!

Roy opened his eyes, feeling hungry and exhausted. His head hurt, it felt like someone was pounding him on the head with a hammer. He moved closer to Link's back to feel his body. Half asleep he wrapped his arms around the one next to him, giving him a kiss on his back.
You've grown Link… And you don't feel like yourself…He let his hand caress the other one's hair and felt a tiara under his fingers.
Wait.
Oh, no. No Link's ears.
This isn't Link!!! He backed away, still drowsy and fell on the floor.
Why am I naked!? Roy looked at himself in a great confusion. When he heard the one who shared his bed snort, he peeked to see who it really was.
MARTH!? WHAT THE --!? He took a hold of his head, trying to clear his mind and remember what had happened yesterday.
Did I… sleep with him? NO!! I could never do that to Link! The general rambled on his feet, took his clothes and ran to his bathroom, closing the door behind him and putting a hand on his mouth. He couldn't remember why was the prince there, in his bed. And where was Link? He would eventually come to his room… realising that the noble was there, lying on the bed naked… It wouldn't take long from him to make the same conclusions the redhead had made. The fiery boy felt his face blush.
What am I going to tell Link? How am I going to explain to Marth that I'm already with someone and that I'm not interested in him?
He rinsed his face and opened his eyes. Maybe it was all a dream. But he knew it wasn't. Roy dressed quickly and collected himself, getting ready to tell Marth that he was already with someone. But he stopped to look at his image in the mirror.
Would I want to be with someone who cheats on me and can't even remember it? He asked in his mind, feeling somehow disgusted to see his face.
No. He couldn't look at himself in the eyes. Should I even tell him? I have to. I couldn't live with the feeling that I'm a cheater and he doesn't know it and thinks I'm all his. And he would eventually learn it in some situation, because the one I slept with isn't just someone I could ask to get lost, he's Marth. Prince Marth Lowell of Althea. Great.
The redhead closed his eyes, imagining Link's reaction. The elf was so devoted to him he would be crushed. Really crushed. But he might not hate him if he told it gently.
Just leave him? No. To ease the pain of the elf he'd need to say everything. Roy knew he would crush him, break his heart into millions of pieces, but lying was worse than telling the truth. Telling him everything. Including that he hadn't got any feelings towards the prince.
He was so afraid his hands doddered. Not because of the prince, but because how Link would react.
One deep breath. And back.
---
Link opened his eyes, immediately thinking of Roy. He'd needed two blankets to get warm without the warmth of the boy. And he was shivering again. But now it wasn't because he was cold, it was because he was afraid to get out of his room, his instincts we're going to the walls again. He checked his neck for bite marks and found none. Yesterday there had been only one vampire, today two, tomorrow four… Soon they'd all be vampires if he couldn't figure out how to heal the two swordsmen. Or kill them.
He stretched, looking at the ceiling. He'd stay in his room until breakfast and leave to the library right after it, only saying hi to his beloved. No matter how much he missed him. It would be hard, but he would be able to do it. He was the only one in the whole building who knew what was going on, he shouldn't be lost to the vampires.
Link couldn't help the hand squeezing his heart as he thought about needing to kill Roy. He loved the boy too much. He wasn't sure would he be able to plunge a wooden stick through the boy's heart and watch him die. Watch those bright blue sapphires cloud, their flame extinguish. The Hero felt a tear rolling down his cheek. He'd do everything he could to save him. The last thing he would do was to kill him.
I hope I can heal him… The elf got out of his bed, trying to be optimistic. He went to his bathroom, and saw the bath tube. His eyes opened wide as he looked at his mini in it, sleeping peacefully, his hands crossed on his chest. The Hylian looked at him in great surprise for a while.
How did he get to my room?"Mini-me?"
No answer.
"Uh… Young Link?" He tried to use the small elf's real name, starting to get afraid.
How can he be here? The door was locked! "Wake up!"
"…Uh…" Young Link groaned.
"Mini… You okay?" Link stepped closer. The elven child was fully dressed in his bath tube, just sleeping.
"…I'm… so hungry…"
The Hero of Time backed away as his smaller self sat up, stretching. "How did you get to my room!?"
"Ah, don't go away from me… There's nothing to be afraid of…" Young Link tried to reach him, but stopped, his eyes flashed red.
"Don't you dare to come closer!" Link snapped, still backing away.
"…Don't worry. I can't take you." The small elven boy stood up and sat on the edge of the bath tube.
"W-what?"
"You're protected." He yawned and looked around himself with a puzzled expression. "Why am I in your room? Don't tell me I was seeing nightmares!"
Huh? One moment he's someone else and then he's himself… Does he have the bite marks on his neck? Link dashed for his younger version and checked his neck. He had the two spots on his neck, the other bled a little.
"What are you doing!?" Young Link pushed him away, looking at him with an even more puzzled face.
"Oh…" The blonde counted that now there were three vampires in the Smash Building. The swordsmen were faster than he had expected. "Yeah, yeah, yeah, nightmares."
"But what did you do to my neck?" the small boy showed his bloody fingers to him. "Where did this blood come from?"
"Maybe you hurt yourself." Link had more important matters to think about. He'd leave to the library without a breakfast and search for the type of vampires that took a hold of someone's body only at times. He was closer to the type of vampires he needed to find.
He ran out of his room, directly into the fiery boy's arms.
"What the hell are you doing here!?" Link snapped, the colour gone from his face. He regretted it right away as he saw Roy's confused expression."I needed to talk to you!" The general snapped back in his short-tempered way. The blonde missed him so much. He wanted to feel the boy closer, in his arms, but hold himself back.
A vampire, a vampire, a vampire…
"… I'm sorry. I didn't mean to sound like that. I just… got scared."
Damn.
"Oh, come on! I already told you I'm not a freaking vampire! I even have the necklace you gave me!" Roy pointed at his neck.
"I'm sorry. I'm sorry. It's just that I found Mini-me sleeping in my bath tube and then you were right behind my door I just kind of freaked out." The Hylian explained.
"Out of my way!" Young Link ran past them, waving to Roy and shouted: "I didn't see nightmares! I'm a big boy already!"
The two swordsmen watched him disappear down the stairs with amused expressions.
"…What did you want to talk to me about?" Link remembered why the general had come to him.
"It's kind of private. I have to tell you something." The boy blushed, looking extremely guilty.
Private? Will he try to bite me again?"D-do we need to be alone?"
"If you're afraid of me, I can't talk to you. But this is important. Because of us." Roy lowered his voice to a whisper.
Of us? What's happened? You want to break up?"What?" Link couldn't help the worried tone in his voice.
"Private." The general kept whispering.
Normally I would get some dirty thoughts, but now you scare me, Roy.
"Let's go to my room." Link begged that the boy wouldn't try anything.
He sat on the edge of his bed, waiting for his love to start. He saw that the general was thinking very hard. Was he about to tell him he didn't love him anymore? Was he about to leave the tournament? The thoughts popped to Link's mind and they didn't want to go away.
"I…" Roy finally said, still thinking. Then he took a deep breath and started: "I can't remember anything about last night, it's all a blur, I don't know what I've been doing or anything! I don't know if I was so drunk that I can't remember or was I just too tired or it was too dark to tell the differences or anything and-and-and--"
What are you talking about?"--and I slept with Marth!" The boy inhaled at last.
"WHAT!?"
Roy had said it, now he just stared at the floor, looking guilty and his face as red as his red armour.
Calm down. Link told himself. "But… why?"
"I don't know, I already told you that I can't remember anything about it!" The general avoided his gaze. "I'm sorry! Please, forgive me!"
"It's all right. But how can you be sure you made out with him?" The Hylian stood up and went closer to the redhead, putting his hands on his shoulders. The general looked in his eyes and then away:
"I woke up naked."
"Roy…" The Hylian hugged him tight. "If you really made out with him, I understand, but I don't think it was you if you even made love to him."
"Huh?"
"You said you can't remember anything about it. Young Link couldn't remember why he came to my room and let me check one thing…"
Why didn't I do this earlier? The Hero tried to check the boy's neck, but he pushed him away.
"Damn, Link! I just told you I've cheated on you and all you can think about are vampires! Have you lost your mind!?" The redhead flared up.
"No, Roy, but I might be right."
They were quiet for a while, Roy snorting to show he was offended and Link created a theory from the behaviour of the two he'd spoken with. The elf remembered reading something about vampires that invaded the body they bit.
"If there's a spirit of a vampire inside you and it comes out only when it needs blood, you should have two bite marks on your neck. It would also explain why you can't remember."
The Fire Emblem warrior hesitated for a moment, but showed him his neck, looking vexed.
A-ha! But the two spots were almost healed, they were only tiny scars anymore. The necklace Saria had given him was gone. He'd probably ripped it off somewhere. When Link couldn't see.
"Happy now?"
Oh, no! That tone of voice! Link tried to dash to the door and get out, but before he could even take a step, he was lying on his back on the bed under Roy.
"Why are you so paranoid about me?" The boy's pale face was close to his, he licked his teeth with his tongue. And his scent was so seducing.
A vampire, a vampire, a vampire"You.. are not… Roy…" Link tried to push him away, but the boy had incredible powers and pressed him against the bed, holding his wrists tight.
"Oh, but I am! I am your precious Roy, the one you can't live without, but I'm much better now that I don't have any weaknesses… I devour the weaknesses inside me and soon I'll be insurmountable…" The seductive whispering continued. "And you'll be too…"
"I don't want to be insurmountable, depending on the blood of humans! You're not my Roy… you're a vampire!" Link kept telling himself that the redhead was a vampire now, he shouldn't give in, no matter how wonderful things he might say. He was already maybe lost now, but he wouldn't give in without a fight. The creature would need to do better if it wanted to drink his blood.
"But I am… I look like him, I feel like him, I talk like him… why wouldn't I be him?" The general held his wrists tight, but put his hands on his warm sides so that the elf could feel his body. The Hylian Hero shook his head frantically, trying to get his hands from Roy's grasp. "…Think about it… We could be eternally together, in the world where no one can die. You don't have to fear about losing me… We'll both be eternal." The general purred quietly.
"No… no…" Link watched the blood red lips touch his fingers. "I don't want to be eternal!"
"Why not? There wouldn't be any pain, any heart-breaking, only the two of us, together…"
"I want… my shy Roy back!"
"What?" The boy stopped. "You should already be mine! I've marked you! You have to give in!" he pressed his lips on Link's neck, embedding his teeth to the artery on the elf's neck.
"Link, ya okay there?" Captain Falcon spoke through his door and Roy turned to look at it with a furious look, his preying was disturbed. A small drop of blood flowed down his chin. He startled as the driver knocked on the door.
"Yeah, I'm fine! Just some muscle cramps!"
"Huh?" the general looked at the elf with a confused expression. He blushed immediately when he realised what he was doing and stood up, avoiding Link's gaze again. He felt embarrassed that he suddenly did things he couldn't remember later and couldn't control. The boy wiped the blood off his chin looking confused and lost.
"See?" Roy finally looked at his beloved, who still lied on the bed heaving a relieved sigh. "Is this some kind of a disease? Alzheimer?"
"It's a vampire, Roy. I spoke to it just a second ago." The Hylian's cerulean eyes met with the boy's.
"Link! Honestly! I want to make it perfectly clear that I don't believe in them. You can believe, I don't mind, but you can't make me believe in things that simply just don't exist!"
"But they do! You're living proof!" The Hero of Time sat up.
"Stop it! I'm not a vampire! I've never been and will never be! They don't exist!" Roy flared as he exited the elf's room. He wanted to be alone. His confession had turned into a conversation about vampires, the elf didn't even seem to care about the fact that he'd slept with someone else. What if he would keep having these weird attacks and continue cheating on him, would he care? How could he be so obsessed with supernatural? Roy went to the garden to collect his thoughts and try to understand his beloved.
---
"Link?" Peach knocked on the doorframe of the open door.
"Uh, yeah?"
"You really think Roy's a vampire?" She looked at the surprised hero. "I just heard the two of you talking and… he said that…--"
"I'm not saying that he's a vampire, I think a spirit of one has entered his mind and takes control over him at times."
"Well, Link, I can't wonder why he flares up to you so often. I mean, sure, you're good friends, but I'd get mad too if you told me I'm a vampire."
"But… can't you see how he's changed?"
"He might not look like himself, he's a growing boy. You must understand that many things change in him as he becomes an adult."
"Of course, but he's not himself! Adolescence doesn't go by in just two days! He does things he can't remember after a few minutes! That's not normal!" Link tried to make the princess believe in his desperation.
"He does? …What if he's just jesting with you because you believe so easily?"
You're as disbelieving as Roy. This is hopeless.
"Yeah, maybe." Link decided not to try anymore. "Let's go and have some breakfast."
---
The Hylian and the princess sat near Ness and Young Link, who spoke excitedly about the match between Gabondorf and Jigglypuff. By surprise, Jigglypuff had won against the Gerudo. This had given the two children hope to win against the big guys, like DK and Bowser.
"Hey, Link! Did you see the match yesterday?" The boy with the cap asked.
"No, I was in the library the whole day. But I heard Jigglypuff won."
"Yeah! Isn't it so cool that she won against Ganondorf?" Young Link said excitedly.
"What did you do in the library, Link?" The cobalt-eyed prince looked at him as he stood next to the table, holding his plate. "Can I come here?" The princess nodded.
Link couldn't help the anger he suddenly felt towards the prince. It was a like a huge wave that hit him with the flames of jealousy. That man had slept with is beloved! And it didn't seem to bother him at all, he was completely at ease. His face looked like he was enjoying the meal and had probably enjoyed the night as well. The Hylian reminded himself that Roy hadn't been in his senses, the vampire in him had had control. Still, the thought about losing his general to the blue-haired prince felt horrible. He realised he was feeling jealousy over the redhead.
crack
It felt so foolish, wanting to keep the boy all to himself, letting no one else touch him or even talk to him. But he couldn't blame Marth about stealing Roy away from him, because everyone thought they were just good friends, not lovers. How could the noble possibly know the general was his?
"Link?" The prince was paler than usually. "Are you all right?"
"Huh? What?" The Hero looked at the glass's broken pieces in his bleeding hands.
Did I break it? The blood dripped on his corn flakes, colouring the milk red. He felt the pain of the pieces of glass on his palms, but he couldn't stop staring at the red liquid. Why did the vampires want it so much? Why--
"Are you okay?" Marth's eyes showed that he was worried.
"Yeah, I'm fine. I… I'm fine."
"What happened?" he asked.
"I was in my thoughts." Link still felt the disturbing jealousy gnawing his heart. Otherwise he didn't have a reason to be so cold towards the noble, who was just being worried.
"Where's Dr. Mario when we need him!?" Peach whimpered in a shock.
"He went to train with Samus an hour ago, I have no idea when they're coming back." Ness said, standing up. "I'll go get him!"
"No, I'm fine. I don't need any help." The Hylian stood up and tried to take his bloody plate, but the pieces of glass ached in his hand too much.
"Let me help." Marth took his plate, trying to smile an encouraging smile. "I'll take care of the pieces of glass if someone could give me tweezers and bandaging materials. We don't need to bother Dr. Mario."
"Uh, okay." Maybe he could ask the prince about the night and his behaviour before leaving to the library. If he suffered the same loss of memory that Roy, they were surely vampires and he would know what kind of he was looking for.
---
The blue-haired noble focused on the pieces of glass very hard, sitting on the table of the living room. Link was sitting on the couch, holding his hand so that it was on the light and the pieces easy to see.
If I weren't so jealous, this wouldn't have happened!
Marth removed a big piece and he grimaced of the pain, pulling his hand away from the prince. The cobalt-eyed warrior looked at him, rising his eyebrows and waited for him to give the hand back.
"That hurts, you know?" Link extended his arm.
"Yeah, I know." The noble answered, taking out another piece. "When I was exiled, I was thrown out of my castle through a window in a tower."
"Ouch."
"That's what I said too."
They were quiet for a while, Marth concentrating on his work again and Link feeling less jealous. He'd been so blind, thinking that he had lost Roy now that the two Fire Emblem warriors had slept together. But the boy had come to him, begging for pardon. There was nothing between the two of them.
The Prince of Althea was such a kind person, he would never take the general away from him. If he knew they were together. And if things would start to seem hopeless, he'd tell the noble kindly so that he wouldn't hurt him. But he didn't want to lose Roy.
Ask it! Link pushed a question away. Ask it!! You want to! The elf tried not to think about it, but his subconscious wouldn't let the matter be. ASK IT!
"What did it feel like?"
"What? You mean the fall?"
"No. I mean the night." The Hylian looked into the widened cobalt eyes. Marth had stopped, the tweezers fell on the floor and he returned to reality with the sound that they made as they hit the floor and reached to get them.
"What night?" The prince asked, being as calm and collected as always.
How does he know? he thought.Link looked around to make sure all the other smashers were somewhere else: "Last night."
The noble paused again for a while, this time with a slight confusion on his face.
"I spent the night with Roy." He collected himself again.
"Doing what?"
"Why are you questioning me about what I did last night?" Marth asked curiously, yet annoyed, but he hid it pretty well.
"I'm just worried about you." Link said, sincerely. He was worried that the prince would take his beloved and turn all the smashers to vampires.
"I appreciate your concern, but what I did with Roy last night is confidential."
Were you aware of what you did or are you just acting? The Hero wondered."Oh, I'm sorry." The Hylian had made Marth cautious, the prince had no idea why he was asking such things. Link knew he wouldn't talk about it, at least now.
"The bleeding won't stop, it's hard to see the smallest pieces…" the noble spoke like he had forgotten about what they'd spoken just a second ago. He gave Link his hand and went to the kitchen to get some paper and water to clean the wound.
He came back and cleaned the most of the blood on his palm, trying to be as gentle as possible. Then he continued his work, focusing on it completely.
"Marth…?"
Swimming or sinking…"Hm?"
"Are you aware of what you did with Roy last night?"
"Why are you asking me these questions?" Marth's voice was clearly annoyed.
"I'm just curious… Well?"
"Why wouldn't I be aware of what I did last night? Link, you're acting like you're jealous."
Oh my god! The blonde looked at the floor.
"…You are. I never thought that… you would like…" The prince of Althea was very surprised, he had stopped again.
"I'm just protecting him. He's like a brother to me." The Hero of Time made up to protect his promise. "I don't want anyone breaking his heart."
"Then don't worry." The prince smiled warmly, picking the last piece of glass from his palm and getting the bandaging materials from the table.
---
Roy wasn't satisfied. The little lightning pokémon hadn't been enough to satisfy his hunger. He had thrown it on the ground where it lied, it's little neck covered in blood and twisted to the point of being scary. It whimpered incoherently through the deep dream.
The general licked his teeth as he bent over Pichu and licked off the blood that hadn't coagulated yet. But he still wasn't satisfied. He needed to get his prey. The fiery boy walked back to the Smash Building, leaving the pathetic-looking yellow pokémon twitching its legs on the ground.
He would do it today. The only reason why he hadn't succeeded already was the remains of that nauseous boy, who was still struggling inside him, trying to stay as himself. But soon he would surrender and be eliminated and that body would be completely his. He was already controlling the body most of the time, the real owner just happened to take control when he was in the middle of preying. When the boy's soul would be gone, he could live again, bring the chaos back to earth that had been sleeping for so long.
The redhead walked past the living room and saw Marth finishing bandaging on Link's hand. And there was no one to stop them.
"Marth, hold him still."
"Hi, Roy. I was just wondering where you went."
"Hold him." Roy looked at the Hylian, his eyes shining red. Link wouldn't have recognised him anymore, his hair was sleet, almost black, his face as white as milk, the eyes intensively red. The elf dashed by him out of the building to the library to find some answers. And after that, he would go to the woods and find some sharp sticks, no matter how much it would hurt to kill the general. If that were the only way, he'd do it.
"Shouldn't we go after him?" Marth asked, his voice very smooth.
"No, he'll come back and he'll be mine. He can't kill me, so don't worry." Roy kissed the noble on his lips seductively, possessively. Finally they had to pull away to breath and saw Peach standing on the hallway, looking at them her eyes wide.
"She's all yours." The general smiled sensually.
"Peach?"
"Yes?" The princess took a step towards them, half against her will. "Did you two just…?"
"Come and talk with us."
---
Link didn't stop before he got to the library and closed the door behind him, heaving a heavy sigh.
I've got to be quick! There're already three of them I know, but how many have they bitten today?"Can I have all specialising literature on vampires?" He huffed to the librarian, who smiled gently as she guided him to the occult literature section of the library and left, leaving him alone with the huge old dusty books.
Link searched the books for the type of vampires the swordsmen were. He had seen something about that type of vampires yesterday, but hadn't read it. He cursed himself in his mind.
Come on…The Hero of Time browsed the large tomes in desperation. Maybe Roy was already lost, but he wouldn't give up hope. And the real Roy, not this obscene creature, would want him to kill it if he was to decide. And to believe. Link let his head fall on the pages of the book, holding his tears back.

"The Demon vampires ~ Oniwega"
The Hylian Hero had missed the lunch and his stomach growled like a savage beast. He had finally found what he was looking for, the demon vampires. But so far, none of them made the possessed to suffer from a loss of memory.
"These vampires are known for their charm and seductiveness. They charm their prey and make them unconscious before sucking their blood."
Is this what I'm looking for?"The Oniwega vampires are very rare, they existed in the dark ages as members of the Oniwega Royal family. It's said that they were all annihilated in a blast that destroyed their castle, but there are stories that the father of the family ate his family members right before the blast and sealed himself in a bottle protected with powerful spells. The story says that he will possess the one who opens this bottle and breaths the father and the ones he bites will become possessed by the spirits the members of his family. Only the one with the demon of the father can transfer his family members to others, the other family member's bites make people basic vampires."
Yadda, yadda, yadda…"Recognising and Oniwega is easy, all of them have long sleek black hair and intense red eyes. A possessed one suffers from a loss of memory before the demons are fully awakened and changes to look like them. They wear only shades of red, black and white. The Oniwega are very strong and flexible. They can't be seen in a mirror, they can get to closed rooms and their movement is smooth, almost hovering."
Roy and Young Link can't remember some things…
What were Roy, Marth and Young Link wearing today?
Red and black.
Young Link got to my room although the door was locked…
I didn't hear Roy walking to my room when I ran to him…
His hair's almost completely black, but his eyes flicker between red and blue…
This has got to be it!
"But because these demon vampires are very old and they've spent a long time in the bottle, they aren't completely awakened immediately after the contact. The fastness of the process depends on the will of living of the possessed. And it can also be stopped if the one possessed wants the demon to go away and seals it back in the bottle.
The Oniwega are killed in the same way as any vampire. Piercing their heart with a wooden stick kills them instantly. They become weaker if they smell garlic or see roses or crosses."
Is this all? Only Roy can heal himself?
He doesn't believe. Link banged his head against the table.
I've got to make him believe, otherwise… he'll get a piercing.
---
"We've got to talk."
"Huh?" Roy looked at the Hero of Time. "What about?"
"About a certain well and a bottle."
The general stood up. His eyes showed that he was confused, yet curious.
"A well?"
"Yeah." Link walked upstairs, the confused redhead following him from a distance.
When they entered the Hylian's room, he turned around and sat on his bed. He looked at the boy he loved so much with a sad expression. If Roy wouldn't believe and wouldn't do it, he'd have to kill him.
"Roy, I've found an answer for your loss of memory."
"What is it? Because I'm a yeti? A bigfoot?" The redhead said scornfully.
"No…" Link sighed in exasperation. "The reason is a demon vampire. Here, read this."
The general had a disbelieving expression as he read the text he'd copied in the library, but didn't say anything after he gave it back.
"So?" The blonde asked finally.
"I'm sorry, Link. I don't believe I'm a vampire."
Link saw how his beloved held himself back, he didn't want to flare up now.
"Please, do it for me. Let's go to Kakariko Village together and find the bottle and—"
"No." The seductive tone was back. "He's already lost."
No! I… NO!!"Roy! Fight!"
"He's trying to. But he's too weak."
I can't!"Roy! You've got to!"
"You'll never make it in time to Kakariko."
I promised! I have to do it… for him.
"I'm so sorry, Roy. I love you more than anything." Link dashed at the vampire and plunged the wooden stick into his chest, piercing the creature's heart. It screamed in agony for a while, blood gushing from the wound the Hero had caused. Then it breathed it's last and the blue sapphire eyes of Roy looked at him like he was a four-year-old who had lost his candies. The elf saw the glowing embers go out as the boy died, looking glassy eyed to the distance.
Link took off his rubber gloves he had worn not to leave fingerprints and closed the boy's eyes gently, feeling how his heart was crushed. The wooden stick had pierced the hearts of the vampire, his lover and him as well. He wrapped his arms around the general, holding him tight and letting his tears roll down his cheeks. The blonde kissed Roy's cheek, sobbing quietly, hoping that the life he had taken would come back. But he knew the boy was gone forever.
"I'm so sorry… I'm so… sorry…"
---
Please don't flame me now! I'm so sorry for my weird and twisted imagination! Please forgive me and review! Thank you!
