Link was flying over to New Arcadia via the prototype SC-1 plane, armed with; a .30 cal LMG, about 30 bombs (Classic Zelda bombs) and his back up .44 magnum.
Link was thinking about the arsenal that they had created over the few years; the D and H model Magnum, Lee-Enfield .00 bolt rifle, some crappy SMG that sucked shit with a 20 round mag, and a primitive grenade launcher thing. And as for support options; .30 cal Mg's at best, a rifle or crossbow with a scope, grenades, and very shitty APC's and tanks (I'm talkin' bout modified steam tractors; does that clarify everything?). While the S.S had hundreds of A7V (WW1) tanks and heavy artillery AND more!
"Well this outta give 'em a scare" He thought
(Most of the tech is WW1 era... and 'SC' stands for, Sky Craft)
Link found the battle ground and it was a mess, the town was fucked up; buildings lay in broken mounds, the walls torn down and most of the civvies' dead.
*chk*
"Huh? Daniels what is it?"
*ka-boom*
"Fuck sir! The S.S are pounding us with the big guns we need you to fly over there and take out that damn howitzer! Over"
"Got it. Over"
"Sir, the person commanding this attack, I know who it is! Over"
"Who? Over.
"Dark and shadow! Over"
"Then I'll be sure to give 'em one hell of a payback! Over and out."
Link swooped over the enemy artillery and let loose a stream of hot lead, destroying two of the guns and killing a good 20 infantry.
Dark link's POV (1st person perspective)
"Shadow, why are we doing this?" I asked
"Cuz, after all these years of being trapped in the dark realm, our old boss has realised us, so why should we not re-pay the favour!" My brother said
"We are killing innocent people! What have they done to us!" I asked as I looked out over the field with a telescope and saw a lady with her child thrown into a burning building by a S.S soldier. That set me off.
"This is murder!" I snapped
"This is business, our job, and life, get used to it!"
*grrrr* "you mother fucker!" I screamed as I tore of the badge on my outfit and threw it at my brother's feet, drew my sword and stabbed the closest S.S soldier to my left. And I ran.
"GET HIM!" yelled a guard
I swear I had to pull some fucking serious A.C moves to lose them.
"Oh crap, oh crap, oh crap, running, running, running!"
"Get the traitor!" yelled another
"Fuck!" I yelled as I countered a swing from a soldier, soon I came to the stables and jumped on a horse and rode towards the ruins of the city we were attacking.
A S.S soldiers POV
"Hey why don't we use our guns yet?" he asked
"Plot convenient!"
Back to Dark Link...
I rode thru the archway of the city, scared as hell that the thing would fall on me, and towards a fallen building.
*BANG*
A bullet seared thru dark's horse and it fell to the ground, "SHIT!" I cursed and continued on foot, running.
"DIE DESERTER!"
Unarmed I ran up the side of a slanted wall and up onto the roofs of the town, the soldiers followed me, jumping over small gaps in the city.
"I'll get him" one yelled and attempted to grab me but a countered and threw him off the building, killing him.
There were still 4 left "I can take 'em" I thought, but then saw almost a few squads coming up the building.
"FUCK! Keep running!" I thought "will I ever lose these bastards!"
I jumped onto a wire hanging from a ruined structure and quickly but carefully walk/ran across it, still they followed. On the other side I could see a wooden crane hanging from a building in progress and a rope hanging from it. I got an idea.
I went completely full sprint and jumped off the building, grabbing the rope, the crane turned and I jumped into a lower window of a building across, that would have been impossible to get to without the rope, and kept going.
I lost them for a moment, I had another idea... I could hear them. I took a jagged piece of metal and slashed myself across the chest, but not too bad, and let the blood soak into my black tunic; I took off my helmet and threw it on the ground.
My plan was; I could see a river, I could follow it down a bit, it ran thru town, I would fake my 'accidental' death.
I got to the top of the building I would jump off, not to high, I took my tunic off and threw it on the roof, it was blood soaked, I ringed it out a bit and made a trail. The bleeding had stopped but it hurt like hell.
"AHHH!" I screamed and jumped into the river.
Third person view
The soldiers heard the scream and rushed over the way the sound had originated and saw it. A blood soaked tunic, blood all over a spike sticking out of the ground, and the body in the river
"He must have tripped?" suggested one
"Yeah maybe" said another
"Well we better report this to shadow"
Back at the S.S camp
"Sir!" said a soldier
"Hmm? Oh, yeah report" said shadow looking up from the battlefield map, but stopped short. The soldier was holding his brother's blood soaked tunic. Suddenly Shadow lost all interest in the battle.
"We saw the body in the river, we assume he was killed by AONH soldiers"
"Leave me." Shadow ordered
"Yes sir."
Shadow walked back to his personal quarters, a huge tent with pretty thick walls... and cried.
"Dear brother, I understand what you mean now... But I can't let your death be in vain, this war goes on."
Shadow looked at a picture of them as kids; the only way to tell the difference between the two was that Dark had glowing maroon eyes and a more muscular build, while Shadow had bright crimson and had pitch black hair rather than silver.
Shadow thought about their childhood and let the tears fall..
While writing this i actually felt REALLY sorry for Shadow, i actually got a bit depressed writing that last part!
PS: i am going to post Character bios as a story, rated T, (CNH: bios)
