Which is the right path to take?

Which path leads to salvation on this dark and damned road of fate?

There are many ways, my son, to find where the demons remain. But it takes just one second of fear and doubt until at last your soul they'll gain.

The Wolf With Steel Fangs

True Intentions

Looking back at me
I see that I never really got it right
I never stopped to think of you
I'm always wrapped up in
Things I cannot win
And now I can see
You are the antidote that gets me by
Something strong
Like a drug that gets me high
What I really meant to say
Is I'm sorry for the way I am
I never meant to be so cold
I never meant to be so
Cold to you
I'm sorry about all the lies

Dark Link appeared, as usual, when Zelda was half naked and in the process of changing into her nightwear. She didn't act surprised when she saw him, this was a natural occurrence for her. She had obviously not yet heard that her captive had been stolen by the same pet that now sat obediently at the foot of her bed. Dark Link glanced down at Rathix once before she solemnly crawled over to the other side of the room and sat on the cold stone floor.

"Come to play?" Zelda asked, snapping her fingers and grinning as Rathix slowly crawled to her side and sat down once more.

"Just curious. I heard a rumor that you're keeping my real counterpart. I wanted to know if it was true." Dark Link replied, red eyes fixed on Zelda.

She smiled and finished getting dressed before she answered.

"It's true. He is locked away and in the process of being broken by the Royal Black."

"The Royal Black?" Dark Link inquired, trying his best to play dumb. It worked.

"Surely you know of them. They were the elite killers of my father's and Gannondorf's army." Zelda replied, sitting on the edge of the bed.

Dark Link seemed to search his mind for a moment, continuing his part.

"Oh! Them! Okay. I remember them now. They're not dead yet I see."

"Far from it." Zelda replied, snapping her fingers once again and Rathix silently crawled from the room.

Dark Link sat down on the great red bed next to Zelda. She smiled and inched closer to him. Dark Link continued to play along. This is the game she wanted to play, and he would take what he needed and leave.

"So...what are you going to do with him?" Dark Link asked, running his fingers through Zelda's golden hair.

"I will make him mine...my own...my bitch."

That was all that was needed before Dark Link slipped into the nearest shadow and was gone. This was indeed a somewhat dire situation, especially when she found out that Link was missing. Dark Link was now questioning everything. There was so much that he could do now. And that wolf-girl. Something about her still remained a mystery. Come to think of it...he had never seen her eyes. They had always been hidden behind her black bangs.

Dark Link returned, his counterpart was still asleep. He sat down and sighed. Well...he knew her intentions. There was only so much he could do. He was...after all...only half. Now what? What options did he have?

"You're back."

Dark Link jumped and turned to see Link slowly rub the sleep from his eyes.

"Yeah...I found out what that princess wants." He replied.

Link blinked once or twice. He felt very confused.

"What?" He asked.

"She wants you to be her whore." Dark Link replied.

"The hell?"

"Yes."

There was silence for a moment.

"Now what? What can we do now?" Link asked, looking at the ceiling again.

"Not much. We really can only wait until they realize that you're missing."

Link nodded and slowly tried to stand up. It was almost painful to watch, but he indeed did succeed in standing. Dark Link jumped to his feet.

"What in hell do you think you're doing?"

"I need to be strong enough to defeat them. I need to destroy them." Link said firmly.

Dark Link sighed and crossed his arms. This was true...but the process would be hell. He tapped his foot once and then settled on the option. It wasn't guaranteed...hell...it was fatal at best. The survival rate was less than one percent...but it wasn't zero. This may work...and the desire to become stronger would be the deciding factor.

"Link...I can help you to become stronger...but you must survive it."

"I'll do anything." Link replied.

Dark Link smiled.

"I thought you'd say that."
