No Longer Whole: Transcendence {Book 2}

Chapter 3 (Individuality)

Yelling was heard throughout the castle, and soon a door slammed hard. Blue was at it again, fighting with Vio, and this time made a huge mistake to talk with his counterpart. He had just damaged the Vio clad more than he already was, and probably to a point where it could never be forgiven. Green and Red held back into Blue's white long sleeves to prevent him from banging on Vio's door.

"What the fuck Blue!? Do you see what you have done? He is a part of you, it's time for you to show some respect to your brother. If you damage him, you damage a part of your self, what the hell are you thinking?" Green's words only went in to one ear and out the other. The blue clad didn't give a damn about what his leader said, this was non on his business. It was on his own accord.

"Stop fucking getting in my business. Why don't you run along to your damn princess and spend all the time you can until she marries a damn stranger that happened to be the fucking Prince of Lorule?!" Blue began to shout as he got out of Red and Greens grip and pivoted to turn to them. "I swear Green, if you care for us, keep your distance from me." He gave both Red and Green a deadly glare as he walked over to his room and slammed his door as well.

Green only stood there, contemplating what Blue had just told him. Of coarse, he had no idea of such thing. The princess never told him after all, so how would he understand.

Not long after did the red clad run after his brother before a hand grabbed his wrist.

"Don't."

Silence only filled between them. A relationship had just been broken, and possibly for ever. Vio was on the verge of breaking down, Blue was on the brink of anger taking over him. Vio was trying to do all he could to protect Hyrule from evil, Blue was waylaying. Vio and Blue were alway on top of each other, and today would be the day all interaction would be lost between them. Green feared that it would soon come for months, and now it has happened.

One thing that struck Green hard, was how could Blue could say something so selfish to Vio. Vio was trying to protect all of them, and Blue messes it up, for all of them. What had the Violet clad done to deserve the way he spoke to him? For fucks sake, they were the same person and a family!

"I-I should go talk to-" Red began to say as an excuse to get out of the hallway but Green wasn't going to have any of that. No one was going to talk to either of them, especially Blue. Blue had to learn to calm himself and be patient at the right times and stop screwing up everything.

Green just shook his head at the red clad, his face somber. Red looked down at his feet and just nodded, and turned around to leave. Red's footsteps barely sounded through the hallways, they were slow and seemed sad in a way. Green stayed there, staring at the door that would shut out a relationship, for the rest of his face. The door, that broke the relationship before his eyes. The owner of the door, lost his senses to a fool.

Vio's back was to the door, and he slid down slowly. He had heard Blue continuing to yell at him through the door, and he heard Green scold him. What did it matter, he knew that Blue would soon snap and say the words he did to him. He saw it coming a long time ago.

Once he knew everyone was gone from the hallway, he got up and started walking to the table he had the mirror shard he had picket up from Faron Woods. He reached over and grabbed all he mirror shards he had picked up from outside of Kakariko's gates and threw them on the table. He turned around and started to walk to his bed before something told him to turn around. He didn't hesitate to turn, and what he saw was even worse than any sorcery he has seen. All the different shards bounded together even if they didn't fit together. Once all of them were fused together, they made a perfect mirror piece that had no cracks or blemishes.

His index finger grazed the surface smoothly, no imperfections. As Vio went to pull his finger back, he got cut with the end of the mirror and began to bleed. He only gave a gasp as his finger had gotten the fresh wound. It was a bit deep as well, so he had to quickly put the finger in his mouth to prevent the blood getting on any surface.

"I swear to fuck..." Vio murmured as he took out his finger from his mouth and examine it. It didn't stop bleeding, it just flowed flowed and flowed, which forced Vio to rummage around his room looking for something to wrap around it. Nothing came to help so he just let it drip, not wanting to go outside just in case.

The blood dripping off his finger didn't seem to mind him as Vio investigated the other mirror shards he found by Kakariko Village. He ought to be studying something else, but it caught his attention. All the books about Moon Pearls, the Dark Mirror, and the Dark World all forgotten on top of his desk. His friend could wait, could he not?

Later, the dinner table was quiet. The Violet clad never showed up, and Green was beginning to worry for his brother. He was about to excuse himself before the princess cleared her throat. The awkward silence became denser. Red seemed to suppress a sigh beside him, fiddling with his thumbs. Red didn't seem to sit still all day, and Green thought it was just because he was antsy, but it was the complete opposite; Red was nervous.

Blue just ignored everyone, like no one was even there. Blue's behavior wasn't like him, it was like it was mechanical. Yes, Green wasn't happy with him, but that didn't stop him from worrying for his brother. Something was obviously happening to him, and it just made him want to yell at Vio more than usual, especially by bringing up a certain someone that was no longer alive.

Just thinking of Blue, made him wonder from his words earlier. 'What did he mean that Princess Zelda was getting married?' The question was repetitive in his head, never giving him some peace and quiet. It bothered him to no end, and though he knew it was non of his business, he couldn't help but throw a few questioning looks at Zelda, which she never caught. Green himself started getting antsy, and his tongue itched to say the words 'excuse me' and simply walk out of the room.

One more thing was just biting at him. He hadn't talked much to his father, despite them always being in the same facility everyday. His father said he was busy all the time, yet he never seemed to be doing anything. Was he trying to ignore him? Green was afraid of what his father was thinking of him. He never did anything wrong, has he?

As Green thought, his Violet clone was practically pulling his hair out.

"How the fuck!? This makes no sense whatsoever!" Vio was ready to throw the book across the room. Blue wasn't the only one acting out of it. Vio let his head drop with a loud thud as his head rests on the brim of his desk. His heavy breathing was the only noise in the room. "Isn't there an easier way to get you back?" Were the only inaudible words that slipped out of Vio's mouth.

The more he read, the more he thought he was loosing his mind. The Moon Pearls, the energy that the moon transfers to the pearl and how it sucks it in, and how the energy revolves around it making it glow a thin sheet of white, and gives off the power to touch anything in the Dark World. The magic they possess is an ancient power by the Shiekah Tribe, a magic that can only be accessible though a pure cause. Meaning, he could use the moon pearls magic for a individual purpose, but how, he didn't know. There would have to be a completely different process to accesses, and it just tore the hero in half.

The fusion of the magic could take days, weeks, months, maybe even years. Vio didn't need it then, he needed it now. "Fuck it." The book was slammed shut, and Vio laid back in his chair, rubbing his tired eyes. Involuntarily, he took out a mirror shard and began to twirl it around in his hands, memorizing every small crease and dent that made the shard, an individual.

After a few moments, Vio's hand stopped twirling the shard around, and almost dropped it.

"That's it. An individual." Vio's voice broke the silence in his room. "It's what makes each Moon Pearl an individual."
