((A/N: Well... this was mildly disturbing... And Ilia... she deserves that, you sonuvabitch slut! Mwahahaha! I wish Link would tell her that in the game! Be all like, "ILIA YOU'RE UGLY I CAN'T LOOK AT YOUR FACE LOLZ" Oh my... I would love that. I bet that's what Link's facial expressions say. I mean... she looks like a man. Anyways, R&R. I'm done ranting.))

"Ilia!"

Ilia turned around, and found herself face-to-face with Colin. She smiled and said, "Oh hey, Colin. What's going on?" Ilia was still sore about what had happened yesterday, but she couldn't do much about it.

"Nothing really. I need to go see Link. I have a message for him!" Colin said, excited.

Ilia put her hand son her hips and said, "Link hasn't come out since I put him in there yesterday. I'm worried about him…" She looked up towards his house, and then said, "Hey, I'll go in and wake him up, alright?" Colin nodded and waited patiently. Ilia walked over to his ladder and climbed up, and then entered his house.

His house was unusually dark. Not even the light from the outside was showing up inside. Ilia took a step and heard some weird mumbling. She coughed a bit and said, "Link, stop this…" The more she walked in, the less she wanted to see him.

The door closed behind her, and she was left in totally darkness. However, she found her way to his table, where a candle was set. She lit it up and looked around. As she looked down, she screamed and fell backwards, seeing Link, his eyes rolled into the back of his head, and his head on the floor in a puddle of something. Her eyes began watering, and soon she was crying. She shook her head and told herself, "Link is alive… I have to go check him…"

She got up, sniffling. She took a few steps and knelt down near Link. First, she set him upright, and then she put her fingers over his neck to find a pulse, and then put her head near his lungs to hear breathing. Everything seemed alright. She inched away and looked up.

"Ilia…"

Ilia backed away, screaming at the aged face of Link. He looked like he was at least one hundred years old. His forehead was bloody, and skin was pealing off his entire body. "Ilia, why are you running?" Link asked. Ilia couldn't say a thing. She stood up and tried running out, but her leg was grabbed.

She looked behind her, and saw Link, grabbing her leg. This time, his eyes were red, and veins were seen running all over his body, and his skin was pale. "Don't… go…" Link said,

"Let go!" Ilia said, kicking his hand and running out of the house. Ilia jumped off the balcony, wincing as it felt like her leg twisted, and then crawled over to Colin, crying.

Colin blinked, and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Link… he's… oh…" Ilia said, unable to speak.

Colin panicked, "I… I'll go get my parents!" He ran off and Ilia lay there crying. She looked up and in the window, she saw someone… she wasn't sure who, but it didn't look like Link. The person had blue eyes but appeared as a shadow. So… all she saw were the blue eyes that stared down at her.

Later on that evening, Link and Ilia were sent over to Uli's house. Ilia had fallen asleep from the crying, and Link had not woken up at all yet.

Until…

"Mom! Link is waking up!" Colin shouted.

Link's eyes slowly opened, as he stared up into a familiar roof. A familiar scent surrounded him as well. He sat up and glanced around, and asked, "Where… am I?"

"Ilia found you unconscious in your house. So we brought you here…" Uli said. She continued, "Ilia said that your house was completely dark and you looked as if you were dead, saying odd things."

Link's eyes widened and asked, "It happened to her, too?" Uli and Colin just stared back at him, and Link shook his head, saying, "Never mind. It's nothing…"

"Link…?"

Link looked on the other side of him, and watched as Ilia woke up on another bed. Uli said, "Oh, Ilia, you're ankle will be fine in about a day or two." She smiled and continued doing what she was doing.

"Ilia…" Link said, looking into her eyes. But as he did, the though of that other Ilia came to mind. He turned away from her, clenching his pain, keeping it hidden as well as he could. It was almost like the thoughts creating the pain.

"Link, what's wrong?"

"Ilia…" Link started, "I… I can't… look at you. Not right now…" Ilia was taken by surprise at the comment, and he continued, "Once I figure out what's happening… then I can. But, I just can't right now."
