Hello again! I hope you're enjoying my story thus far! This is a rather short chapter, and is still at the far beginning, but still important nonetheless. I hope you enjoy! Please critique. Thank you.

The dust finally settled. I found myself gripping the the monster's indents on its shell for support so I wouldn't fly off of it. I had closed my eyes to protect to protect them from the dust, opening them, I realized the four were looking at me. No, not looking, they were staring. I could only think of the thoughts they had. 'Who is this imposture?' was one of them. This is what I had to do- I had to fit in. With this thought in mind, I stood up and wiped off my tunic.

"Great job guys." I said casually, sliding off of the creatures back and grabbing my sword again. Lissa was no where to be found, but who really cared about that brat anyway.

Red was the first one to approach me. He started off by poking my chest, then looking right into my eyes. Thirdly, he examined my sword.

"I don't get it.." he finally told the others. Red was obviously confused.

I looked over to the one I wanted acceptance from the most, Vio. He was keeping the farthest distance. The calm Link I had considered a friend.. I wanted him to be my friend again, especially now that I could be considered a light being, but, he didn't seem to want anything to do with me.

"You're kidding." Blue spurted. His tone was just rude, and I didn't want to deal with that either. He stormed up and crossed his arms. He leaned a bit closer (to close for comfort), then examined me up and down.

"Obviously if you're one of us, you're not a very attractive one." This comment really pushed my buttons.

"Excuse me?" I asked, my tone angered. How could he talk to me about attractiveness? His personality wasn't attractive in the slightest.

"Obviously. You wear such a flashy color. It doesn't mesh with your hair at all." Blue scowled. Was he REALLY trying to give ME fashion advise? Idiot. I'll deal with him later. I need to get on all of their good sides for now.

"Come on Blue, don't be so rude." Green began speaking as he approached the little group. "Where are you from?" he asked me. "What's your name?" was his second question.

I only decided to answer one of the two. "My name's Link." I crossed my arms, making the response blunt. The three in front of me had surprised expressions, they looked to each other for answers. While they did this, I again drew my attention to Vio, who had pulled out a book from his adventure pouch. I had to force away a smile, that's just like him..

"Vio? Can you explain this to us?" Red asked, trying to get him to come over. Vio sighed with disinterest and approached the team.

"I actually can't."

'ooh, the smart ass can't answer a question' I wanted to say, but I couldn't, that'd be to obvious.

Vio looked to me for a moment, our eyes met. It's been so long since I've seen those eyes. I missed those eyes. But he turned away almost instantly, looking to his leader to explain what he knew.

"In the legends, the hero gathered four elements and brought them to the elemental sanctuary. This sanctuary then created the four sword." he looked at each one of his teammates as he mentioned the elements, "The fire element created you, Red. The water element created Blue. The earth element created myself, and finally, the wind element assists in Green's power, being as he's the main Link. Each element was the color of our respective tunic. Being as there is no such thing as a fifth yellow element, I have no idea what he is."

The three listened carefully, even I had a bit of interest in the story. What was I going to say? I had to think quick.

Violet Link gave me a rude, almost evil glare. "So tell me, how did you get here?" he asked, hate clear in his eyes.

"I um.." I stammered. Dammit, I needed more time to think! More time..

"The Great Fairy created him." Lissa spoke up, flying out of my adventure pouch. "She sent me too. Geez, can't you all just accept a new member?" for once, Lissa's attitude allowed me to relax. The four, easily believing this story, nodded their heads.

"Why did she send you two?" The leader asked curiously.

"There's going to be a big battle or something, and you need more help." I smiled very slightly as Lissa spoke for me. I didn't want to speak yet, I hadn't figured out my new identity fully.

"Help?! We'll be fine on our own! Go back to the fairy fountain or something." Blue detested, waving a hand. "If worst comes to worse, all we need is me." he smirked proudly. His confidence has, and always will be, a nuisance. I shook my head and chuckled a bit, not able to stop myself.

"What are you laughing about?" he asked, feeling disrespected.

"Just your attitude." I told him. "Obviously working as a team would be best if the great fairy even thinks you need help." I wanted to choke on my words, I'd never worked on a team before. Of course, besides with Vio..

I looked to him again, he was holding a small book with his writing in it in his right hand. He had been taking notes on all of the monsters and their patterns, he didn't care about the others at all, or at least it had seemed that way. Feeling as if the others might notice my continuous gaze on my old friend, I looked to the remaining three. Red was giving me big, excited eyes. Blue was ready to fight me if it was needed. Green was trying to figure out if Lissa was telling the truth.

"I think you should join our team." Green said, after plenty of silence. Blue's mouth dropped.

"This flashy idiot?!" he detested. "You're kidding!" I didn't care all to much if Blue wanted me around or not, I'm sure if he went alone, he would prefer that anyway opposed to a team.

"I'm not kidding." Green held out his hand. "This guy- no matter where he came from- is one of us. And being one of us instantly accepts him as a member of our team." he gave me an amazing reassuring smile. His attitude was perfect for that of a leader. When I was the leader of my monsters, all I did was boss them around and insult them (I mean they were stubborn idiots anyway), Green on the other hand had compassion and kindness, and I kind of liked it. Don't tell him I said that, I don't want him getting cocky like Blue.

"Well, if they turn out to be double agents or something, don't look to me for help." the blue hued Link rolled his eyes and crossed his arms, not accepting a fifth member of the team.

"With that, I'd like to announce you as-" he was holding his hand out to me, but Red stopped him.

"Wait! He can't be a member if he doesn't have one of my nicknames~" The optimistic boy chimed happily at the thought of being able to give out another name. In response to him, I waved my hand in a circular motion, wanting him to hurry up.

"How's Yellow sound?" he asked me.

"No."

"Oh.. um.. Low?"

"Definitely not."

"Yell?"

"Ew."

"Ow?"

"Absolutely not."

"Yellow?" he suggested again.

"Fine." I caved and gave in, not wanting to hear what else the boy had in store for a name. I'm not sure how much farther he could have gone with breaking up the word "yellow" but that's where his mind set was, and I my as well just ignore how much I hated it. I'm sure I won't be in this state for all to long. Eventually they'll be able to call me Shadow again. Hopefully..

Green laughed gently at the spectacle that had been going on between Red and me. Once again, he held out his hand to me. "As I was saying, welcome to the team Yellow." he happily emphasized the word- no, the name Yellow. Blech. Whatever helped Red sleep at night I guess.

"Let's get going." Vio told them, leading the way.

"Where are we going?" Green asked confused. Most ideas should go through him before anything else is done, but Vio was more of a 'lone ranger' type due to his intelligence. Cocky bastard.

"Kakariko Village." he told them. Blue's mouth dropped, he's cheeks grew red with anger "That's across Hyrule you idiot! It's a two day walk!"

"And?" The smart one asked them all. "What difference does it make? What else do we have to do?"

"Eat." I answered. Vio's glare just made me smile. Getting on his nerves was funny.

"Excuse me?" he asked me, not having had accepted me as a member quite yet.

"I'm hungry." I chuckled with my answer. "can't we get some grub or something? I haven't eaten in a while."

"We'll stop back at castle town for supplies and a plan, and possibly a mission if one's needed in the area." The main Link compromised.

This caused Vio to continue his glare toward me, but he ignored his aggravation of wanting to move on farther than castle town and continued walking.

"Wait up Vio~!" Red said, catching up with his fast paced brother. Blue rolled his eyes and followed behind.

Suddenly I was frozen, I had to take a moment. I was on a team. I was being accepted. I wasn't afraid of the light. I once again had to stop to take some breaths and just..smile. Once again, it all felt incredibly surreal. Was this even real? My life felt..almost perfect. I wasn't.. lonely.

"Are you coming Yellow?" Green asked when I was lagging behind.

"Y-Yeah sorry!" Lissa hit me in the back of the head for stopping. She probably called me an idiot, but I was much to distracted to listen to her. As I ran, I passed a window. For a moment, I saw myself. Finally, I was ok with this outfit, this situation, and this setting.

I could get used to this.

Together, we returned to castle town.

"There's another sir.." a moblin spoke, his voice shaking.

"Another what." a calm voice responded.

"Another hero in a tunic. This one is yellow."

"Tcht.." it was a male voice. "Just another one to kill. It'll be fun I'm sure."

"The Violet one is coming on to us." it continued.

"Then target that one first. We can't have them figuring out anything we have planned or our location. Is that understood?"

"Y-Yes sir.." the little moblin responded, barely audible.

"IS THAT UNDERSTOOD?!" the calm voice became enraged in seconds. His voice echoing.

"Yes sir!" the moblin stood to attention, then ran out to tell his comrades what he had been told.

How long will my happiness last? I wonder..
