Warnings: Character death and blood also possible spoilers for Skyward Sword! Tell me in the subject lines if you don't want to be spoiled and I'll do my best!



[Link was breathing very heavily by the time he made it into a hallway. He had been running non-stop while bleeding out the stomach but he wasn't prepared to stop just yet. He wasn't ready to die.

So, he makes his way into a room, someone's dormitory. Your dormitory. He doesn't care who lives there, all that matters is that there is a chair in the corner of your room and he is sitting in it.]

GAWD DON'T SPOIL ME YOU SUCK B(

[ocariness]

[ ...

So you just ran into the room of another green clothed hero, and they are SO CONFUSED with what they are seeing right now. WHY ARE YOU BLEEDING.

Why are you in their chair?

WHAT IS GOING ON???? And oh my god do you need help........ and this guy looks... kind of a lot like them, actually, but sort of kind of different a little, and the outfit is sort of different, too, but... ]

...!

[ Approaching cautiously, now. ]

W-what happened to you?

GOD I'M SORRY BUT I DON'T LIKE YOU SO SUCKS TO BE YOU!!!!!!! /.SPOILS 5EVERRRR

[theherourherocouldbelike]

[It's nothing to worry about, Link will be fine! He's sitting in a chair after all! Except... nothing is fine. At all.

Oh god why isn't it working.

He looks up at the other green garbed hero and blinks a few times.]

[Yeah, he's not gonna talk. He's too confused.]

WOW YOU SUCK??????? WHATEVER I DIDN'T LIKE YOU ANYWAY! /STORMS OFF

[ocariness]

[ See, that doesn't fly in her Legend of Zelda, bro.

You gotta smash pots and shit for that. And she has Nayru's Love for extra protection. Just... wow, though?

Wow. So much staring... and then Link realizes this guy is BLEEDING she should probably go get something to stem it, brb fumbling and running out of the room into the bathroom and returning with towels!

Let's hope he can hang on while she approaches with some towels here, worried. ]

GOD STOP TAGGING ME THEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[theherourherocouldbelike]

[He winces a little as he moves his bloodstained arm so the other can help him out.]

Who... who are you...?

[His voice is a little strained as he speaks and quiet.]

NO I'M GONNA TAG YOU JUST TO SPITE YOU, SCREW YOU!!!!!!

[ocariness]

[ Oh... well. The confusion is honestly rather understandable. There's a small smile. ]

... Link.

[ H-heh, they have a feeling, just... a gut one, that this guy might also have that name... maybe it's an alternate reality or timeline version of them? That's plausible, really, considering the things revolving around the Master Sword and how they'd been frozen and all... hm.

Speaking of which, it may be worth noting, this one has a shield and is equipped down to silver gauntlets and a sword, bow, quiver, so on.

Link pauses, concerned with this other version of theirself. Tentatively... ]

What... happened?

[sageprincess]

Goddesses above--

[Today has been a weird day. First Demon McCreeperson in the gallery, and now someone who looks a lot like the Hero of Time but at the same time clearly isn't is in her room, bleeding to death.

Seriously, what the hell.

Nevertheless, she doesn't spare a second thought before ripping the sheets off of her bed and using them to stop the bleeding. A Link is a Link is a Link, and she is not about to let one bleed out when she can do something about it.]

[theherourherocouldbelike]

[Well you look a little familiar. But he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

He does move his arm and let her help.]

Th-thanks...

[sageprincess]

No need. Guests are to be treated with hospitality, yes?

[Seriously, bro, you're in her room. What else was she supposed to do?]

...What happened?

[theherourherocouldbelike]

I was caught in a fight-- [He winces as he shifts into a more comfortable position] --without my sword.

[sageprincess]

[A Link without his sword? Now that's a puzzling thought.

She frowns a bit in sympathy, dabbing at the blood as gently as she can.]

I see. There is only so much I can do here... do you have any healing potions? If not, I can aid you to the infirmary.

[finallycowboys]

[ Henry startles, as he's sitting on his bed and fiddling with what looks like a metal handle with a green cube on the end, but once he realizes it's just some dude bleeding profusely all over his...chair...wow, thanks... his expression settles and offers a sort of gentle smile. ]

Aye, that looks rather serious.

[theherourherocouldbelike]

[Link looks at the man and nods. He wasn't sure if he could trust him so he wasn't going to speak just yet.]

[finallycowboys]

[He'll give you a second, drumming his finger patiently against the metal handle, then he drags himself off the bed.]

I hope you don't plan on bleedin' yourself to death in my room. I'm a bit of a neat-freak.

[theherourherocouldbelike]

[He tenses up as the man stands up, keeping an eye on him.]

I'm only taking a break.

Not only is this five days late but also no spoilers please I'm so demanding kalfjgdkf

[forceless]

What the--?!

[OK so there was some weird blond guy here bleeding and running into the room and holy crap was he going to be alright--]

Are you OK? What happened?!

GOSH (No it's okay <3)

[theherourherocouldbelike]

[Asking someone who's bleeding out the stomach if they're ok seems a little redundant. He winces and sits up a little.]

I... got in a fight.

[He has no idea who you are so he's not prepared to just tell him exactly who he was fighting and why]

RAWR RAWR ACCOMMODATE MEEEEE

[forceless]

[Cut him some slack they're not allowed to show blood in his universe]

With who?! One of the monsters? [--No wait, he cut himself off this time. Probably should take care of wounds first.]

Uh, here, let me fix it! I know how to do cure magic, if it's ok...!

SO DEMANDING GOSH

[theherourherocouldbelike]

[He nods, glad to be helped.]

I was fighting with-- [He shifts position.] --someone named Ghirahim.

[1/GLAM] OBVIOUS SPOILING WARNING GOES HERE..... seriously guys.

[lordoffabulous]

[ Let's have a timeskip.

After all the stuff Link's done, guess who's been hunting for him? Scouring all over?

If you guessed Ghirahim, you're right! ]

[2/also fabulousness]

[lordoffabulous]

[ And, of course, with Link still being weaponless, this is likely not going to be... something that ends well.

At all.

At first, he turned the Tower upside-down searching in a blind sort of angry panic, but time passed and somehow, Link eluded him, whether by sheer dumb luck or by complete coincidence, it doesn't matter. Eventually, however, he runs across the hero on the floor with the glass walls and floor.

Looking decidedly NOT nearly dead.

This was not okay. ]

[3/oh and he's mad]

[lordoffabulous]

[ ... He'd calmed down since their last... ENCOUNTER, but seeing Link again fills him with fresh rage, of the sort that can scarcely be contained.

It isn't long before the gloves are off, literally and metaphorically. ]

[4/5] AGAIN, SPOILERS.

[lordoffabulous]

[ Every inch he walks closer to Link is also given a proceeding bit of magic as he slowly shifts forms, smile gone from his face.

There is no amusement.

There is no laughter, there are no taunting words. Just the silent, overwhelming POWER of a VERY pissed off demonic weapon. ]

[5/5] enjoy your death. C:

[lordoffabulous]

[ And there's the distinct sound of metal on glass as he takes each step, now in his Sword Spirit form, and a snap of his fingers is the prelude to the sealing off of every exit on the floor.

Anyone nearby was sealed outside the following floor in a given area by the same yellow diamond-shaped magic Ghirahim was known for.

No one comes in, and no one goes out. And especially NOT Link.

In his hand now the huge blade that he'd summoned during their final encounter, rather than the two rapiers. From Link's back, he would find MULTIPLE daggers floating, suspended, in mid-air. If he even TRIED to move, they would cut him to ribbons.

When he finally speaks, his voice is angry, and full of malice. ]

Link... you ran away from me. Like a coward. I'm disappointed. For that, your punishment will be all the MORE severe.

[ Each word is accented with him getting closer, of course. Slowly. He will ENJOY this, DAMMIT. Link has EARNED this torture. ]

First, I will make you BLEED. I will make you wish you'd died when I'd stirred up that little tornado... and when I'm done that, I will dismember you one limb at a time. Then, after I have done that, I am going to take you to one of the highest floors, but only after I've reveled in your blood. There, I will hang you over a pit so that you slowly bleed to death while begging me to end it--oh, but I won't end it quickly, oh, no--before falling to your deserving, overdue end.

You killed my Master, you insolent brat! Not once, but TWICE... you defied me numerous times when I did nothing but, despite my best judgement, magnanimously spare you time and time again! Your sins will be repaid in ever single drop of your blood and bones I spill and crush, and you will pay for what you have done. I swear it.

[ At... least he's giving you time to think, Link...? But you'd better do something, he is getting kind of close. ]

HNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNG YES GOOD

[theherourherocouldbelike]

[There wasn't much to do in a situation like this. He was pretty much screwed. He didn't have his sword, he didn't have any room to use his arrows, and his slingshot was useless. The only thing he could do was die.

But he wasn't going to scream. He was going to stand tall, stand brave, and face death head on. He was going to take it like a man and not give Ghirahim the pleasure of hearing his shrill screams or hearing him beg for his life. No, he was ready to die.

He smirks a little. Poor Ghirahim wouldn't have much fun at all if Link could help it.]

I KNOW YOU'RE ENJOYING THIS BUT CONTAIN YOURSELF DEAR

[lordoffabulous]

[ Oh, no, Link. No no no no no.

This is decidedly NOT okay. You aren't helping to make this rage subside in the least, are you?

The first little rapier positions itself around his torso. A second does the same. Then a third and a forth until the four of them are in a diamond-like pattern, which then embed themselves in him.

Oh, he hasn't punctured any vital organs... yet. But it probably hurts like a bitch. Enjoy your blood going everywhere. ]

And now, dear Sky Child, we match...
