Purple was the last one at the table, he sat down in a chair on the end of the table, across from the Keeper. Ashley and Sarah were standing at the table waiting for instruction to sit or leave. Purple noticed something different about Sarah; he just couldn't put his mind exactly on it.
"May we sit please, master?" Sarah asked. Everyone, except Red and Ashley, looked at her in astonishment. Purple then realized that it was Sarah who spoke on the intercom.
"But of course you may sit, girls," the Keeper answered, his eyes mainly on Sarah. "Besides, we have guests. It would be rude for you to ignore them." A smile came across Sarah's face as she thanked the Keeper and sat down next to Red. Everybody was still staring at her, a confused look then came across her face.
Green spoke up, "Wh-what happened in there that made you start talking?" Everyone was curious, looking at both Red and Sarah.
"Red…did something." Sarah looked at Red and smiled again.
"What'd you do Red?" Blue asked curiously.
"I…I plead the fifth." Red's face turned the color of his clothes.
"This is a different world, so the fifth-amendment won't work here." Purple chuckled.
"Fine," Red admitted, "I…I kissed her."
Green dropped his fork; everyone had a surprised look on their face. "B-but it was unintentional," Red looked at the soup ladle. "Somehow the ladle fell on the ground and I tripped over it and fell on her. How the ladle got on the ground, I have no clue."
"I may have played a little part in that," Ashley admitted. "I might have accidently dropped it on the ground. Although, I did see something in Sarah's eyes that I have never seen before. It was almost as if something awoke inside of her."
Sarah blushed, she was obviously a little embarrassed of being the center of attention. She scooted her chair towards Red, trying to show affection. Green slammed the table, stood up, and excused himself from the table. There were no words spoken at the table after that. An awkward silence.
When dinner was over, the Keeper offered them to stay the night. Green refused the offer, and because he was the "self-appointed" leader. Sarah had to hug Red goodbye, and he assured her that they'll come back before they leave Hyrule. Green had the Golden Sword and Shield strapped on his back. They left through an elevator that led to an island in the middle of the lake. They swam to the other side, despite all of the stuff they were carrying.
"Why did you refuse the offer?" Red asked Green, a little disappointed.
"Because," Green answered, without looking at Red, "I couldn't let Sarah get too attached to you."
Red looked at Green with suspicion, "Why not?"
"Because, Red," Blue butted in, "we already have a girlfriend. Do you know how much of a pain it would be if Sarah were to suddenly barge in on our life?"
"But Sarah's a technically a fictional person," Red tried to argue. "She exists in a video game. She wouldn't be an issue concerning Sam."
Red thought his argument was logical, but of course, Purple had something more to explain. "But she has feelings too," Purple explained, "Even if she's a fictional character. She's still human enough to have feelings."
"I never said she didn't have feelings."
"Still," Purple looked at Red, as if trying to send a message to him. Red understood. He still felt bad about leaving Sarah behind like that. But he knew that once Green made up his mind, there was no changing it
The four traveled back to the village. They were throwing a party because of what they did. Green assured the villagers that they will come back someday; they then left the village, after they returned the scuba gear. Green had no idea where to go next, but he was sure that they would just stumble upon it. After hours of searching, they couldn't find anything; no clues, no tracks, nothing.
Purple remembered something he read in the Keeper's library. "If you want to find the Tower's key," He said. "Find the one who will not flee. The ones you need have purple eyes, for they won't lead you to demise." The others stared at him as if he was crazy.
"What?" Green was confused. Purple repeated the poem. One thing was obvious, he was one of the 'ones' that the poem said, because he had purple eyes, but they didn't know what anything else meant.
"Well if I remember correctly," Purple said. "Purple eyes appear very rarely on humans. But it is common for albino kids to have them."
Green's eyes widened, showing a green glow. "That would mean that there's someone living in the shadow realm, someone who may not want to leave."
"But there was no one like that back when we were there." Blue stammered. He looked at green, wondering if he remembered anything about the village and the moon pearl.
"And," Purple said, "we would need a Moon Pearl in order to do it."
"Well I'm not going back to that creepy village just to get a stupid Moon Pearl." Blue's eyes burned with a ferocious blue fire.
"But where else would we find a Moon Pearl?" Red finally spoke, "Much less, some other way to get to the Dark Realm."
"That's it!" Green was excited. "Purple, does the book say anything else about the Dark Realm?"
Purple's eyes widened, "I don't know, but I'll check." He pulled out the Book of Hyrule and scanned the pages.
After a while, Blue got bored. "Seriously," he said, "that book doesn't come with a Table of Contents?"
"Ah," Purple seemed to have found it, "here it is. In order to go to the Dark Realm without a Moon Pearl, one must find someone who comes from there instead."
Everyone was confused, but for some reason the "someone who comes from the Dark World" seemed familiar.
"Maybe," Red spoke up, "we need to somehow cooperate with Dark. Then he may be able to bring us to the Dark World."
The other three stared at him for a while, and then they simultaneously said, "ARE YOU CRAZY!?" Red sank down; he obviously thought that it might have been a good idea. The others thought that Dark would never cooperate, but Red thought that he saw something in Dark's eyes as they were fighting. As if a little bit of light came into his Dark Soul.
