Some Live, Some Die

Chapter Nineteen: Will you ever leave me?

   "Sky...Sky!", said a hushed voice that woke Sky up instantly. Sky looked out of the window and saw that it was still night time, it looked like it was 3 am. The air was cool as he sat up to see who was calling his name. He looked around the room to see if someone was there, it was Time. Sky gasped a little from small fright of seeing someone in the dark who called his name.

"It's just me, Time..., "he said, looking worried. Sky was a little startled and shook his head a little to see if his eyes adjusted to the darkness. He rubbed his eyes and gripped his shirt and began to fix it. He was wearing his Skyloft clothes without the fabric around his waist while Time just wore a white shirt and his white tights. As soon as Sky's eyes adjusted just enough to see Time, he spoke.

"I just heard you crying and wanted to know whats wrong.", said Time.

"Oh...I just had some bad memories from the past...you know....what happened to Minish and that stuff...", Sky replied.

"Love...don't be sad about it. It wasn't your fault.", Time sighed, making his voice more serious then it was moments ago.

"How...how could someone like you say that?!", Sky began to silently yell. "Arrow, Warrior, you, Twilight, or Past could literally DIE due to me not talking to them about my nightmares! How could that not be my fault?!"

"Warrior and Arrow should be fine. As well as me, Past, and Twilight.", Time replied while glancing at Warrior, who was hugging Arrow and sleeping like he was a giant teddy bear.

"The fucking thought of it being YOUR fault is absolute bull crap. If you don't tell any of us about your dream, it means that you're afraid of telling us things and that you're a coward. You NEED to tell us how bloody or painful our death will be so that we can try to dodge it like a bullet. We should be able to understand you in an instant flash so we can comfort you about this stuff. Yes, it was a bad idea to not jump out of the portal and grab Legend, but it doesn't make you a bad person. If you don't understand me right now..then I guess that I just lost all hope in you.", Time said, making it obvious that he was mad. Sky's eyes widened a little and began to water, but he lowered his head so Time wouldn't see.

"I see....", said Sky in a hushed voice. "I'm sorry for worrying you, Time. I'll try to be more optimistic from now on so I don't worry or make any of you guys start to hate me."

"That's the spirit, love. I don't like seeing you so worked up and worried about the events that took place in the past. None of us will be dying anytime soon. Now get some rest. We're going to the desert in the morning.", Time said with a wry smile. Sky nodded and both of them just said a simple "Goodnight." before they slept.

Morning soon came and all of them were packing their things. Midna was floating by Fi and smiling a little while Fi remained expressionless.

"The Gerudo, eh? Just a couple of evil doers who around the Twilight Realm.", Midna said.

"I believe that we will need to be cautious around the desert and try not to be defeated by the intense heat.", Fi replied. Midna's hair grew into a large hand and she giggled wickedly.

"They shouldn't worry about that. No need to be careful. I'll fight to my death!"

"Midna, I do not think you understand what I mean."

"Relax, Fi. The Mirror of Twilight SHOULD be in the desert at the top of an ancient temple. We SHOULD be able to get there easily."

"Due to my recent sightings of the current environments we have seen thus far, I detect that the temple's appearance has changed drastically."

"Is that so...? Then that will change how the inside looks and what we will need to do in it!"

"Correct. I will help my Master(s) during it....while you will have a 0% chance of helpfulness.", Fi concluded as she turned her back and went to Sky's side. Midna floated to her and put her hand on Fi's blue shoulder. Fi turned around to see what she wanted.
