Chapter 16

Dark Link's Treachery

Link gulped in air deeply, the fight had worn him out, although he felt strange energy surging through him…Revitalizing his strength…the triforce maybe?

"Th-that was amazing…" Alexis commented.

"It was nothing…" he muttered…had that sudden burst of energy come from seeing Alexis being hurt by Naomi, if so…that meant he was lost deeper in his emotions than he first realized…Shoot.

Alexis smiled meekly.

"Are you gonna be okay?" Link asked her.

"Yeah…I'll be fine…---" a deranged laughter suddenly rent the air around them. Alexis jumped in fright…right into Link's arms…

He sighed, "Alexis…" he set her down.

Alexis blinked back a tear but didn't say anything.

"That's right, you should be scared." a cold voice said, a voice that sent shivers up and down Alexis' spine.

Alexis was shocked, "Didn't you kill him?"

"Uh yeah…something kinda backfired…" Link replied hurriedly, looking around the room for an extra shadow that didn't belong.

Dark Link appeared…with his sword edge pressed against Alexis' throat, yet again...why did it seem he always had to do this to her?

"It's me you want, not her!" Link exclaimed.

"Oh really?" Dark Link laughed sadistically, then he turned Alexis' head towards him and…placed a kiss on her lips. She struggled to break it, but to no avail…not to forget the fact that the sword was still held against her neck.

Bitter jealously and aggravation flooded through Link's veins. He can't kiss her! Wait---What? Why was he feeling so strange?...Where had jealousy slipped in, what reason did he have to be jealous? His emotions puzzled him to the extent that he didn't notice Dark Link throw Alexis to the side and Dark link now had his sword aimed on Link's heart.

Alexis landed several feet away and spat disdainfully, "You dirty little---" that's when she noticed where Dark Link had his sword aimed.

"What's wrong, Alexis? Do I really kiss that bad?" Dark Link taunted, glaring at Link. "My revenge is now, your life is over."

Before he could even nick the skin on Link's chest, Alexis rammed into him, sending them both rolling on the floor. Dark Link brutally kicked her off of him and stood up, anger written all over his face, but then he came up with a clever mark, "Just one kiss and you already can't get enough of me."

"You pervert!" Alexis screamed angrily, Dark Link sneered and stabbed her with his blade, just enough to cause her pain. When he turned back to where Link had been standing, Link was gone…

Dark Link cursed under his breath and then glared at Alexis, "Gee thanks for givin' Link time to escape, the frightened little baby probably ditched you."

Alexis smirked, and Dark Link raised an eyebrow in confusion at her. Then from the beams in the ceiling, came Link swinging down and kicking Dark Link hard in the back of the head, striking heavily and sending Dark Link toppling over into the floor face first.

The Ocarina of Time bounced across the floor, and Link instantly snatched it, relieved to see the final gift from Zelda returned to him. Dark Link angrily jumped up and lashed out with his sword, Link shoved Alexis out of the way and took the blade through his arm. He grunted his pain, but refused to cry out.

Dark Link threw his head back and began laughing hysterically, "This is just too funny! You deny your feelings for her yet here you are, taking the pain in her place, Hahahahahaha."

Dark Link forcefully ripped his sword from Link's arm, blood pumped out heavily. Alexis ripped a piece of cloth from the end of her cloak and quickly tied it around the wound like a bandage, not allowing time for Dark Link to recover from his laughing fit and stop her.

"Thank you…" Alexis whispered softly.

Link went in for the kill as Dark Link was apparently distracted, but Dark Link brought his sword up and blocked it, the laughter instantly gone and a grim smile on his face.

"Think you're so clever, huh?" he smirked, kicking Link hard and ending him crashing back into the wall behind him. "We'll just see about that when I'm through with you…and your little girlfriend."
