Shadow's POV
"I spy with my little eye…"
"Oh, not this again…" Dark Link was getting quite annoyed with me, as I started another round of his least favourite game. "It's my hat."
"What? Pfft! No it's not…" I said, hoping he wouldn't see passed my lie.
"Yes it is."
I was silent for a bit, as we climbed the stairs to Kakariko Village, the sun setting quickly behind us.
"It totally wasn't your hat." I grumbled to myself, crossing my arms in front of me defiantly.
"Yes, it was. Just like last time it was. And the time before that. And the time before that." He rolled his eyes at me, while we made our way up the long staircase.
"No! The time before that it was my hat, not yours. And it was your shoes this time, Mr. know it all"
"Whatever. Look, its getting pretty dark out, we need to find a place to rest for the night."
I grumbled at that sentence. "Why do we need to find a place anyways? We're shadows, the night is our friend."
"But we abandoned Ganondorf. He's bound to notice at some time, and send his lackeys after us." At that moment, we arrived at the gate to Kakariko Village. No one was around. It seemed everyone was in for the night.
I looked around at the village I have never seen before. It was boring. Before I could realize what was happening, I was on the ground with the most terrible headache imaginable. I looked in front of me to see a tree that I seemed to have walked into. I looked to my right and saw Dark Link's disapproving gaze. I groaned and laid on my back with my eyes closed basking in the shame.
I heard a gasp to my left, a young girl's voice called out "Oh my goodness, are you okay?" And I heard the fluttering of wings (a cucco's?) get closer and closer. I opened my eyes and looked to the direction of the noise. I spotted an unusually red haired girl running towards me, to see if I was alright. A moment of panic took over me. I had little to no experience speaking with people, let alone someone as pretty as her. And she was very pretty, but dressed very strangely, almost as if she was homeless.
Mary's POV
I was chasing a rather stubborn cucco. Carolanne was inside a house, 'begging' for food, as she said she would. She took the rupee I found in the field in with her, but I doubt that'll help much. I lunged to grab the cucco and firmly grasped it in my hand. Suddenly, I heard a rather loud thump coming from the main area of the village. My first thought was of someone walking into the tree there. I laughed at the stupidity it would take for that to actually happen.
I got up with the cucco on my hands and walked to the stairs to see what happened. I gasped at the sight of a young male lying on the ground with his eyes closed. "Oh my goodness, are you okay?" I called, preparing the cucco for flight. I leapt off the side of the stairs, and let go of the flying thing in panic from not flying ever before. Luckily, I landed on my feet. I quickly got my balance and began running towards the male, who looked about my age. He was now looking at me. I got to him soon after I landed. "Are you o- Oh my Nayru!" I stopped and stared. Our eyes met, and I noticed his were purple. "Oh my gosh… Your hair is purple… and your eyes… are…. purple…" I did the first thing that came to my head. I ran. I ran as hard as I could toward the house Carolanne was in. She came out just as I was about to reach the door, and I ran into her.
"What the Farore?" she yelled as I hid behind her, breathing hard. At that moment she looked up….
Carolanne's POV
My one little green rupee had bought me a single glass of water, which I was kind of grateful for since I didn't think a green rupee would be able to buy even that. Navi tried to persuade the house keeper to give me some food to share with Mary, but she wouldn't budge.
"Come back with more money, little kid." That made my blood boil. I was certainly not a little kid; I was almost legal gosh darned and I would not be talked to that way!
"I'll show you…" I mutter as I walk out of the house, ready to face the night out in the cold. I didn't expect to be suddenly jolted from the front.
"What the Farore?" I shouted as I was hit with pain. "Mary, what the heck?"
"Guys, guys, there are guys, guys guys guys guys." Mary said in a panic, making no sense what so ever. It wasn't like Mary to obsess over random cute guys, so what was she on about?
Then I saw them. Or rather, him. I wasn't really paying attention to the younger one. But who I did see, was…. THE Dark Link.
"Oh my Hylia…" I couldn't believe it. He was supposed to be in the Water temple, and he was supposed to have been defeated, so how could he possibly be here? I could say though, I was glad he was here. He was so beautiful. Just, gorgeous. He was exactly how I imagined him to look, tall with dark skin and dark hair, with piercing red eyes that oh my goodness we were making eye contact I was making eye contact with Dark Link he existed this was real right now this was happening and He was in front of me he was real oh my gosh-
Dark Link's POV
"She… fainted? Why on earth would she faint?" A million thoughts rushed through my head, most of them concern, which was strange for me because I am not likely to care what happens to a stranger, but for her it was different. It pissed me off to no end.
"I'm not that scary, jeez how rude." I looked to the other girl, the one that was still conscious, kneeling beside the fainty girl. "What is her problem?" She looked too stunned to talk, which was really strange.
"Shadow, do you have any idea what the Din is going on?" I looked to my apprentice, whom looked just as confused as I would.
I looked back to the two girls and groaned, feeling my 'Link' hero complex start to come out.
"Hey, um, do you girls need somewhere to stay? I mean it's the least I can do considering I think that I made your friend faint?" I could feel Shadow's confused gaze, and this whole situation was making me frustrated and tired.
The red headed girl's mouth opened and closed, as if she was having trouble forming a sentence.
"Sure thank you so much!" She said in one breath.
"Well come on then, we'll show you the way. Um, do you need help carrying her or something?" I crossed my arms impatiently, I just wanted to get away but something was making me stop and help these stupid girls.
"Yes please."
I bent down to the small woman, and picked her up, her head resting on my chest. I looked at her just for a moment, before walking up and starting towards the Skulltella house, where we would be staying. The fainty girl was kind of nice looking now that I had gotten a good look at her.
