For some reason, I was in the back with Vio, but I was still the first person to see it.

"You guys, it's a door!" I gestured to it with the hand Vio hadn't wrapped his fingers around so tightly.

When I wasn't paying attention, he grabbed my other hand and kissed it so I started paying attention to him again. I remembered doing the same thing in the Fire Temple everytime I thought four hours was a bit too much time to spend reading.

He was still kinda leaning on me, but I liked being able to be close to him, so it didn't matter.

The voice had gotten louder as we had gotten closer and now we could hear it clearly. "The exit is right here...the exit is right here..."

Zelda stopped moving. "Why is there a voice, can we trust this voice?"

"Probably not, but..." I started.

Vio finished for me. "What other choice do we have?"

Something about the voice seemed familiar and I found myself trusting it. Zelda reluctantly started moving again, probably realizing that if we didn't take this door we'd just be stuck here forever until we found another exit. I shivered at the very thought. 

We reached the door. Green placed his hand on the doorknob and then looked at all of us, probably doing a head count. 

We were all there. I mean, probably.

The door swung open and we were in the same bloody-grass-covered-landscape in the dark. Red pulled out his fire rod, but it could only give off so much light.

I must have been too busy glancing around to pay attention to Vio. I felt his lips on my hand, brush past my knuckles, take its time on every one of my fingers...

I felt like all warmth returned to my body, when had I gotten so cold? We walked side by side behind the others, Blue snickering about how "when this is all over, they need a room," and Red smiling about how "they're joined at the hips, they're my OTP!!!1! OWO <3."

And then we heard a scream.

The moment we turned around, I noticed that the blood on the grass had started to dry, but now a wet trail of bright scarlet lay on the grass.

When we heard the scream again, I think we were expecting a cry for help, a plea for them to stop, not the loud, "I'LL KILL YOU MOTHERFUCKERS IF YOU DON'T LEAVE ME THE FUCK ALONE, YOU FUCKING BITCHES!"

But you know, that's what we got.
