Well I think that I have kept this story on hold for long enough... so without further delay I'll just get right to it... that is unless you want to see some one being tortured by Chaos Samus... meh whatever Here's the chapter... ... ...

(Ridley) ...

Once Link and Samus got back to Warfang I knew something bad had happened because of the look on Link's face. Something looked... off about him. It was not until I got a look at Samus and realized that she was suffering from something within.

Gathering together all the equipment I could I had my science officers get to work on figuring out what was bothering Samus at the moment. It was apparent that her mind was still in a state that thought Link was dead but the way she looked right now showed that she had just gotten beat badly.

Scientists went about gathering medical supplies when one of them tripped over something. As they fell a large red crystal flew from their hand and was heading right for Samus' Dragon form. As it got closer to her it instantly was absorbed into her body. A few seconds passed and most of the injuries seemed to vanish.

Upon seeing this I ordered the scouts to go find more of the red, green, blue, and purple gem clusters.

A few hours later presented a few crates full of each gem type. During that hour though the scientists had isolated what was causing Samus to be in such a state.

It was her attachment to Link that initiated the Chaos Mode and it was her own abilities that caused her to go into such a state.

Upon seeing this, and getting the gems that I asked for, I set about finding a way to mix the gems together in hopes of making something that would help her and possibly the other dragons as well.

Link assisted as much as he could, He even went as far as to using his own abilities to try and help Samus recover.

This was admirable to say the least but it could have made me sick. As it were I was dealing with several different compounds of energy restorative materials and the mixture I was making could turn out to be very unstable if things were not mixed properly.

(Inside Samus' mind)

Link was dead... he was dead... he had to be dead... Yet he's not dead...

"That one is an imposter... the real Link died during that battle... remember?" A sinister voice echoed sweetly.

"Yes I remember..." Samus' voice echoed in response.

"Good... the one you fought was an imposter and not the real Link... I can grant you the power you need to get revenge... just give in and I will grant you my power..." The sinister voice said as if it were smiling.

I wanted to give in to this sweet sounding voice... I wanted to believe it but yet there was a part of me that would not let me believe it... Call it my stubbornness or my strong will... Call it whatever you want but whatever it was It was fading quickly and this voice was going to take control of me.

"I want to believe you yet I just can't seem to do so... Something about the way you talk about Link is very... off putting..."

"I tell you nothing but truth... Link is dead and those responsible are trying to keep you from avenging his death... the one whom you fought against was not the real Link but an imposter who sought to calm your mind and take advantage of you." the sinister voice spoke calmly.

"As if anyone would be stupid enough to try that on me." I said looking around at the void within my mind when suddenly a blue light appeared...

"Samus..." This voice was gentle, calm, and calculative. "Samus I calculate a 95% chance that this entity which tries to convince you that Link is dead is up to no good at all. Calm the storm of your mind Samus... Link is alright... He is safe..."

This new voice did put my mind at ease which caused the other one to scream out in rage. Something was seeming to go right for a change.

"In the past there was a boy named Link... He was once my master... I have been sleeping for many eons waiting... During my sleep I sensed something great and dangerous rising up within the land. Now here I am talking with you... The entity that speaks to you is a wrathful shadow infused with the corruption and poison that burns within you. I calculate an 85% chance that you will be healed of this inner chaos... I will help you... I will become a part of you and leave my place as part of the Master Sword. The goddess had given me orders in the past and now... I register you as myself... now wake up... Wake up Samus..." the serene voice said.

I didn't wake up but asked the name of the voice. There was no response

(Link's POV)

Samus seemed to be waking up and yet there was something different yet familiar about her. Something seemed to change in her appearance for certain. Some how... she seemed a bit more graceful as her scales changed color... from what they once were they changed entirely. luminescent blue, light purple, red orange, while the horns and scales on her head remained in the color of a red blond coloring.

Her eyes opened and she turned to look at me. I had to pick my jaw back up off the floor. Even though she was a dragon, as was I, her face had that form that was calm serenity fused with mischief and her eyes... her eyes looked calculative and soul piercing. At that moment I felt like I had fallen in love with her in more ways than one. needless to say I passed out shortly after picking my jaw up off the ground.

(Samus' POV)

After waking up and looking at Link his jaw fell open and shortly after closing it he passed out. It was then that I looked at Ridley who grumbled to himself about something and walked off. The Space Pirates were apparently stunned about something. I paid it no mind seeing as in the past some were stunned to even see me walking through their base.

I got up off the table I was on and lifted Link up off the ground and started looking for a way out... that is till i realized that I could teleport with Twilit energy.

After teleporting out of the chamber Link and I appeared in a room chamber where I could leave Link. After depositing the out could hero on the pile of cushions I walked out the door and into the corridor where I encountered Spyro and Cynder.

"Oh Samus... Your alright. I thought that..." Cynder went silent as she saw Samus staring at the ground where Spyro was standing, now laying on the ground. "Well that's never happened before. Must've been exhausted." Cynder said.

"Hey Cynder what were you two doing up here?" I asked.

"Well. We WERE coming up here to get away from everything else. Those Federation guys are strict and the Guardians just seem to be getting along with them just fine. Truthfully we came up here to get some rest due to the battles we've been going into. Can't seem to get much sleep when these communicators are going off almost all the time." Cynder groused as she shook her head and neck causing the communicator to rattle and shift against her neck scales.

"I know how that is. Annoying isn't it?" I said with a slight smile.

Cynder nodded then asked, "May I drag Spyro in there? he must have been so tired as to collapse right here in the hall."

I stepped aside and opened the door and helped Cynder dragon the unconscious purple dragon into the chamber that I had just left Link in.

"You look beautiful by the way." Cynder said after we had placed Spyro on a few cushions away from Link.

This was a compliment that I had never really gotten from many people, or dragons for that matter. So I was pleasantly taken aback by it.

I smiled at the compliment just as Cynder collapsed beside Spyro and was instantly asleep.

Deciding to see what Cynder was talking about I walked over to the mirror and looked at my reflection and I instantly knew why Link passed out.

No longer were my scales a strange mix of dark colors and my body did not seem so bulky. My body was slender and sleek yet strong, I seemed more agile and graceful, my scales were of brighter colors luminescent blue, and light purple were on my shoulders and streaking down to my hind legs, red orange made up the main part of my scales but they were mixed in such a way that brought out my new features better. My neck spikes, crest, and horns were the same red blond that they had been but they now had faint twili runes on them and going down my back were the same runes.

All in all I was down right gorgeous by most definitions. I struck a pose of sorts and laughed about it and shortly heard a faint groan coming from Link, who must have been waking up, I struck yet another pose to get a better look at my new appearance. That was when I heard Link gasp, slightly choke then his head hitting the cushions again. I turned and saw that there was blood coming from his nose and the cushions were soaking it up.

If I had to guess how many hearts he had left I would have to say that he was down by nine hearts. I laughed and laid down on the cushions next to him and closed my eyes.

I fell asleep rather quickly just seconds after hearing the ever so familiar voice of federation marines, dragons, cheetahs, and moles all conversing about something.

well this was a long time in the working... sorry for the long horrifying wait.
