Ralia • Sallie • Kain • Ambre

"Leave this Sacred place at once Demon"

A voice boomed in Dark Link's head, he looked around suddenly jerking it from left to right to find the owner of the demanding voice.

"What's wrong Link?" He didn't respond, instead he brought his hands to his face to protect them from some invisible force, "Arrrghhh!" he growled in pain. "Link? Are you alright?" Ralia stared down at him worriedly, "Sallie!" she called out, "Go fetch Ambre!" Sallie looked down from the rocks she had been climbing, "What? Why?" Ralia could here the pout in her friends voice; she sighed in frustration, "There's something wrong with Link, now just go!" The brown-haired girl paused a moment, then hurled herself off the cliff she had climbed and dove into the deep pool below, swimming out quickly she passed Ralia to speedily dry herself, "Okay fine, but if I run into those annoying kids he is gonna owe me big time." She said pointing at Shadow Link then without any further ado she sprinted out of the glade back to the village. "Wait! You forgot your top! Sallie!!" Ralia yelled, but the sprinter was long gone; clad only in shorts and a bikini top.

She sighed and turned her attention back to the man in her arms, "Link, you ok?" She heard a slight murmur emit from his covered face, "What?" she asked him again. This time she heard an answer, "Please get me out of the water." It was an odd request but it seemed as if he was in a serious amount of pain so she decided to give him the benefit of the doubt. Ralia stood up and positioned herself behind Link to lift him; she grabbed him from under his arms and attempted to lift the muscular man, "nnrrrghh, god you are waaay too heavy. I can't lift you." Ralia admitted. Shadow Link smiled from underneath his hands, when she tried to lift him, he had felt the warm sensation of her chest pressing against his back, it was nice, "Ugh, okay I think I can stand, just help me up…please." Ralia blushed at his sincerity, "Okay." Although she would never admit it; Ralia also blushed because of his warm back.

Once Dark was out of the water all they had to do was wait for Sallie to return with their horse Ambre.

"Hey Ralia."

"Yes, what is it?"

Shadow Link looked over at his prey pathetically, "Can I rest my head on your lap please?" Ralia was putting her shirt back on when she heard his question; she paused and looked over at him suspiciously, "And why would I do that for you after you have been a total jackass to my best friend?" "So she can swear…sexy." He thought to himself, "well time to act like a nice, caring…jackass."

"Look Ralia it's complicated, my feelings for Sallie they have been gone for a while now, I don't know how to explain it but…" Dark grabbed her hand, " I think…" he looked up longingly into this beautiful girl's eyes, "I think…I love you, Ralia." With those final words he clutched Ralia's hands with a stronger grip and with a jerking motion he pulled her down his face and pressed his lips against her startled lips, "Mmm she tastes good." Though the kiss only lasted a few moments it felt like eternity for both the giver and the receiver. Ralia pulled back surprised, her face a beetroot red; staring straight at Dark Link. Then they both heard the sound of a galloping horse, Sallie was returning and Ralia was in no condition to be caught. Quickly she rushed to the water and splashed her face, desperately trying to reduce the massive blush she knew was there, her face couldn't be that hot without a reason.

"I'm back!" Sallie yelled sounding worried and yet jolly at the same time, sitting atop a beautiful chestnut brown mare that was known to the two girls as Ambre. Dismounting the mare; Sallie looked apologetically at Ralia, "Sorry it took me so long, when I was getting Ambre a big, green dog followed me and scared our poor horsey." She pouted rubbing the horses strong neck, then she turned her attention to the problem at hand. "Okay let's get this guy back to his house." The brown-haired girl walked over to look at Link, "Damn he really doesn't look too good; his face is all red, hmm neither do you Ralia, I mean your face is lookin a bit pinky…wash it off, you may be burnt from the sun." Without asking Sallie took her spare towel over to the spring and soaked it with the water, walked over to Dark Link and squeezed all the water out of the towel and onto his face.

"Aughh!" Shadow Link screamed out in agony clutching his face as the clear water burnt his eyes. Ralia and Sallie recoiled uncertain of what to do, but not before friends traded looks; Ralia's scolding and Sallie's apologetic. Of course Ralia was the first to respond as Sallie took this as her unexpected revenge, "Now we're even." She muttered. Dark Link's vision was getting blurry, he could see a girl with fair skin and long beautiful hair approach him worriedly, the other just staring. The blurry images turning back, he was falling unconscious and he knew it, "Just one thing before…" he reached up and grabbed a lock of the hair but missed, his hand falling but caught by a smooth, gentle hand. "Hang in there." He heard an angel whisper.

"Ralia.." Everything went dark. The last thing he heard before passing out was an apologetic voice, "Hey Ralia, I know this isn't the right time and all, but; I think we have a new pet, and it's a dog."

The two girls rushed to the collapsed figure, stunned and worried. Ralia ran beside the unconscious man cursing silently at her growing feelings for him. Sallie stood over the two; her arms crossed and her eyes deep with concentration, "Ralia…check his eyes." Saying this she turned around and walked off to find the shirt she was still lacking. Ralia the more worried of the pair gently pulled up Dark Link's eyelid, her worried emotions were soon placed with distress and possibly even…fear, "Sal…Sallie! Quickly help! We need to get a medic!" She started to panic. Sallie came running over; pulling her shirt over her head, "What happened?!" She questioned. Ralia answered immediately, "His eyes! Look at his eyes!" Both the girls stared down at the eyes of their supposed friend. "….Oh shit, Ralia…that's not Link…it can't be."

Both girls stared down at the unconscious maroon, red eyes staring back up at them.
