Link has to get rid of Dark Link before anybody finds out that he actually exists, but why is Dark Link so laid back about the whole thing? Doesn't he care about being destroyed?
This fanfic updates Mondays and Fridays.
When he woke up again, Sheik was sitting next to him, and Dark sat on the opposite side. He still reeked of smoke and blood.
"Whut?" asked Link, blinking, but the light from the torches hurt his eyes. Sheik looked down at him, concern in his eyes.
"Why didn't you say you two were linked?"
Link laughed, and Sheik put down the paper he had been reading.
"Are you alright? Link? Can you understand me?"
"He's fine, he's just dizzy." Said Dark. Link realized what he was doing and stopped laughing.
"uh...I...I didn't know. I never tried to hurt myself, and we never really fought like this. But, it's nice to know it now."
"I was so worried. I cured you with a red potion you had on you." He narrowed his only visible eye. "You should have told me that you also shared damage. If I had known the bond you two share was so strong, I would have never..."
"What? Bond?"
"I explained it all to him, Blondie A" said Dark, pulling him up.
"Blondie A?"
"Yep. You're Blondie A, he's Blondie B. I'm the hot dark haired evil twin, but I haven't decided what Oni is."
"I think I'm not the only one hallucinating."
"He's been blabbing gibberish all this time. You two go sit over there until you stop hallucinating, I'll play the song to the mask." Sheik shooed them away, and stood near the mask, which laid in the center of the tapestry.
Link leaned against his shadow and they both limped away. With each step Link felt his head clearing, and the sound of Sheik's harp soothed his worries.
"We should kidnap him and make him play for us every day." Said Dark, looking at Sheik with a sharp grin.
"He'll go back to the castle," said Link, letting his head fall against Dark's shoulder.
"A bad idea, considering they're the ones most likely to have put him in the shield," said Dark.
Link refused to believe that. "We can't be sure," he said.
"You just don't want to accept that it's the truth."
"But why would Zelda and the sages do that? Sheik was always the most loyal to them."
"Well, he doesn't seems the same, does he? He doesn't seem as worried as he should be about going to the castle, or making sure Zelda is alright. He was always so obsessive about her back then."
"Yes. But...well, It's awkward to suddenly wake up and find you've spent the past decade sleeping," said Link. He felt something like anxiety building in his chest. His stomach felt like throwing up, and the scar healing on his forehead itched.
"But he woke up and sprinted into action, like he did back then. Now he's just...so calm. I don't know. You know what I mean, don't make me put it into words," said Dark, and gritted his teeth. He started feeling dizzy, like he needed to lie down a moment.
"Yes. But...I like that he seems much calmer," said Link. He wanted to relax and lie down. With every note, his heart quickened, and he felt like he had lost something important. He tried to remember what it was. He was so sure there was something he was missing.
"Doesn't it feels like the calm before the storm?" asked Dark.
"It...kind of...does," said Link with a sigh, as if in a daze.
Dark held on to Link's tunic, and stumbled forward. He felt like he was falling asleep. Not like he usually did, by drifting softly into darkness, but by being pulled... dragged, into the absolute black of a dreamless sleep.
"Link, I...I feel," he panted.
Link tried to hold on to him, but his fingers felt numb, and Dark slipped from his grasp, sliding to the floor even as he tried to reach out to him. Link fell to his knees next to him, and grabbed Dark's hand. He could barely hear the other one's thoughts, as if the door between their mindspaces had closed.
Don't go, thought Link as he lost all strength and his body crumbled to the ground next to his shadow's. He felt Dark's fingers holding on to him, and then...
Then there was light.
And everything vanished.
