Shadow Fire

Lowering his gaze to the floor once again, Link decided he wouldn't tell Diggs about his dream. He's got enough of his own worries, without me adding to them. Plastering a smile onto his face, the blond laid down on his bed, glancing over at Diggs once again. "Well..." he mumbled. "Hopefully, tonight will be better for you." Hopefully, you'll stay here. Giving a soft yawn, a slight grin crossed his lips. "We'd better get some sleep..." he chuckled. "After all, I need to wake early tomorrow, and I'd like for you to see me off. Who knows? I may decide to bring you something back as a gift."

Smiling back just as faintly, the blond blinked as breakfast was suddenly placed before him. "Pancakes..." he mumbled. "Like what Rin made... They smell wonderful." Placing his hands together, the boy closed his eyes for a moment, before opening them and reaching for his fork.

Glancing to his starter, Silver gave a slight smile. "C'mon..." he said, catching his breath. "We'll whip some butt, and then I will probably feel better." The Feraligatr gave a chomp of agreement, and the two continued to Goldenrod City. However, as they got closer, they could hear excited voices. "Did you hear? These guys rushed into the Radio Tower!" "Yeah, I wonder what they're up to?" "Who knows? Though, their ugly black uniforms make them all look like thugs, so it can't be anything good." "I wonder what the red R on all their shirts stands for?" Silver froze immediately, lips curling into a snarl. "So..." he hissed. "They're in Goldenrod City too? Damn you... Team Rocket!" Once again, Ethan broke into a run, stopping as some nearby Rocket Grunts began talking of their plans at Mahogany Town. Damn! What the hell are they up to?

Link glanced at his floor, shaking his head. "It's nothing..." he mumbled. "I was just wondering if you were hungry. I'm... not really that hungry lately." There was complete silence for a few moments, until Link spoke up again. "Hey, Diggs?" he murmured. "Have you had trouble sleeping lately? I don't mean from Sera's cat, but... well..." The blond turned to his chestnut-haired friend. "It's just that..." he continued. "...I've been having these nightmares lately. They're... unsettling..."

I'd like to thank Zethy for this idea. After all, he did have me in mind when thinking this over, and his devotion to helping me out in whatever way possible is truly touching.

Leon, if you're like me, and live in any of the PAL regions, then Ocarina of Time for you would have run at 50fps as opposed to the original 60. This was to sacrifice for our superior graphical style. =P

Still glancing at his friend, the blond's smile faded to a more serious expression. "Hey, Diggs..." he mumbled. "Have you... eaten yet?" More importantly, have you been having nightmares like I have?

Shying a glance at his best friend, the Ordonian smiled, giving a nod. "Sure," he said. "That'd be great. Thanks... Diggs."

Now dressed in only short pants, Link chuckled at Diggs' comment. "It sure was..." he agreed. "Rounding up those lambs can be exhausting work. It makes me wonder how Fado will make do without me..." Sitting on his bed, the blond gave a soft sigh, resting his chin on his fist.

When Link clambered up the ladder, he opened his door, giving a quick glance down to Diggs, before entering into his house, stripping out of his clothes.

With another smile, Link nodded. "Of course," he smiled. "I already have a spare bed set up for you, should you wanna ever stay."

Link slowed Epona to a trot, glancing back at his friend, a serious look on his face. "I believe you can..." he said, letting his eyes lock with Diggs'. "I don't care what other people think or say about you, you're my best friend, and you're special to me."

The blond boy smiled, making sure Diggs was safely seated, before taking Epona's reins. Closing his eyes for a moment, his heart skipped momentarily as he felt his friend's arms lace around him from behind. Eyes opening again, he cleared his mind, and with a soft "Hyah!", Epona was on her way, Link steering her back towards Ordon Village.

Link nodded, slowly getting to his feet. Helping his friend to his feet, Link whistled for Epona, the horse galloping to her master. "C'mon, Diggs..." he said, slowly climbing onto the mare. "Let's head back and see what the fuss is." Reaching a hand down, the blond waited for Diggs to take it, so he could help the brunet up onto the horse.

Link's eyes widened slightly at his friend's comforting words, before a smile came back to his lips. Staring down at the hand which the brunet was holding, Link let his hand grip back softly. "Yeah..." he said softly. "Thanks, Diggs. You're the best friend I could ever hope to have." Giving another sigh, he turned his glance back to his friend, smile widening slightly.

Link nodded, giving a sigh. "I know, I know..." he continued. "It's only a package delivery, but Hyrule is a massive place. I've never been outside the village before. What if I get... lost?"

Link gave a slight smile, turning his head to the side, glancing at his friend. "Really..." the blond said softly. "Well, I love it here. I come here to relax... and to think." Glancing back up at the sky, his expression went serious. "Diggs..." he mumbled. "I'm... nervous..."

His face now showing a grumpy expression, Link sweatdropped at his best friend's antics. "Diggs..." he muttered. "Sometimes I wonder which one of us is truly the older one. As good as it is to see you again, you're kinda crushing me here." A smirk came over the blond's face as he teased his friend.

Twilight MemoriesThis is a roleplay based on The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, which adds a new character, Diggs, from Zelda: Unknown Origins, an awesome flash series. The roleplay was originally at RP Mania, but when that site went down, it was lost. Anyway, this is shounen'ai/yaoi, which contains love between two boys. Yes, Link and Diggs are awesome like that. Okay, Jia... let's get started. In the woods of Faron, near the small town of Ordon, a young man sat staring up at the sky, watching as the sun set. Closing his eyes for a moment, the boy listened to the sounds of the wildlife around him. Birds whistled, crickets chirped, and the nearby waterfall of the Spirits' Spring continued to make a delightful sound. The young man, no older than 17, laid back, resting his hands behind his head. His name was Link, and as the farmhand in the Ordon Ranch, he had worked hard to earn his relaxation. "The sunset..." he murmured to himself. "...beautiful. My favourite time of the day." His eyes closed, deep in thought, Link couldn't hear, nor sense the familiar presence approaching him.

Rubbing the back of his head sheepishly, Len sat down at the table, before his glance shifted to Haru.

As Silver continued towards Goldenrod City, he frowned. What the hell is wrong with me? Gritting his teeth, the red-haired boy kept running, until his lungs felt like they were going to burst. Only then, did he slow down, his hands grasping his knees, panting heavily. "Snappy..." he muttered. "I think I may be coming down with something." The Feraligatr smirked his best at the boy.

Silver walked a few steps, before coming to a stop. However, luckily for Ethan, Silver hadn't heard the raven-haired boy's comment. Instead, the cocky teen turned around and gave a slight smile. "It may not mean much from me..." he began in a voice different to his usual. "...but, I hope to see you again very soon. Farewell." Glancing at the other boy silently for a moment, Silver finally turned back away and made a run for Goldenrod City.

Yaaaaay! [warning=Glomp alert]A massive glomp is heading your way. You are powerless to stop it.[/warning] Welcome back, Wulfy-chan!

Snappy shied his glance away, staring back at his master, who slowly pulled away from Ethan, and coughed into his hand. "Uh..." he said, voice full of uncertainty. "G-good luck out there, Ethan." Pulling on his icy visage, Silver gave a smirk. "Yes..." he continued, finding a little more confidence, even though his heart was beating rapidly. "Get stronger, and I'll whip you when you're at your best. See you next time. Come, Snappy." Snappy gave one last glance to Cynder, before following his trainer.

Blinking, Len was brought out of his thoughts, giving his own smile. "Thank you, ma'am..." he said softly, giving a respectful bow. "I am indebted to you and to Haru."
