Sollux Captor

Diggs laughed a little bit, before carefully dabbing the cuts on Link's waist. "I dunno, having you tied down under me sounds kinda tempting..." He had his grin return once more, not having to look up to feel the heat that had just built up in Link's face.

Diggs blushed a little bit, before offering a little smile, before reaching into his bag. "I love you too, Link... and as such you're going to let me treat your wounds before we continue through this temple." He pulled out his first aid kid, and began to dip a clean cloth in disinfective.

"Link...? ?! D-Dear god, what happened to you?" Diggs reached out, pushing the other's shirt up, seeing the blood caked on the wounds on his waist.

Midna seemed to sigh, folding her arms and turning her head, but glanced over at this young couple... a person of the light wouldn't have had so much trouble awakening the Gale Boomerang, and yet Diggs... was he not part of this world completely...? ----- The blue-green eyes that belonged to the boy was wide as he was standing there, in his body as a seven year old, his face stained with blood as he was facing his mother one last time while she was alive. "I love you, ----..." This part of his memories always made him sad... he couldn't even hear his mother say his name... he didn't even remember if Diggs was his actual name or something he made up after wandering around so long without a home. He watched her brown eyes fall closed as she drew her last breath... she was gone now. Now only the Goddess could keep her safe. The familiar evil snickering was soon heard as he looked over at the thief who had just ended his mama's life... she had done nothing wrong... no sin in her past to deserve such a horrible ending to her life... "Alright, little freak, unless you wanna end up like your mother, be a good boy, and hand over whatever food you have." Freak? He was calling him a freak? Everyone that looked at him and his mother would whisper and say horrible things as they couldn't hear them. His mother would only smile at him and tell him the same thing. "Don't pay them any mind, my love. When we get back home, those mortals won't call you things like that..." His eyes soon narrowed on the thief... he was a closed minded mortal like mother said... and he had taken her from him. He raced towards him, his mind seeming to faze out the fear of death... this man's life couldn't go on for the sin he had committed. "Wh-What the fu--- GACK!" The man could say no more of his curse as he found a hand going through his chest, blood pooling down his back and down the arm of the child who had just punctured his body. The knife in his hand soon dropped uselessly to the ground, as the little one pulled his arm out of the man's body, and backed away, as he watched him fall to the ground, almost in the same fashion that his mother did, as he heard the thief coughing, as blood dripped down his jaw. "Y-You little... how the hell can you do something like t-that..." The boy said nothing... he wasn't even sure of it himself. "You really are a freak... you... Goron-halfing...!" Soon, this man said no more as he fell to the ground, dying in his own pool of blood... Tears were visible in his eyes... he wasn't sorry he killed this man... His sin would be given judgment in hell. He was alone... he had no one. "That's right, this man deserved this punishment..." The little one shivered, as he turned around, finding a shadowed figure standing behind him, though a strange golden glow was coming from his hand. "Pay this world no heed, child... you don't belong here... your mother was trying to bring you home... bring you to me..." He reached his hand out for the young one, though his presence seemed to frighten the little one. "Come here... prince of light and darkness..." Diggs tried to run as the larger's hand was reaching out to grab him, before a bright light shined down on them, stopping them both in their tracks, but a familiar voice seemed to call for the boy. "Diggs..." He glanced up, making out someone reaching for him... Diggs... was that his name? Could he trust this person...? He reached his hand out, ignoring the enraged yell in his ears, as he gripped the light enshrouded hand, before it all faded out into whiteness... His eyes snapped open, as he felt his hand through the torn up cloth of his glove gripping against something. He glanced up, finding a familiar face... silky blond hair... deep blue eyes... familiar green tunic... "Link..."

Midna finally appeared, as her shadowy form hovered beside Link. "I tried to get him to stop, I could have at least warped you to the other side so you could have awakened the boomerang he won for you, but he didn't listen to me. I stopped the bleeding, but it's all I could do in this state." Diggs was cradled close in Link's arms, seeming to shiver a little, as if having a nightmare at the moment.

Diggs had made it into the room, only for a wooden spiked gate to lash out and sealing the way out, as he clutched his short sword up near his face, his eyes focused on the baboon, who looked almost possessed, as it lifted its boomerange, still glowing with dark energy and threw it, sending two Deku Babas onto the ground. He narrowed his eyes... he raced forward, and slashed the two man eating plants in half, before flipping his sword, returning his attention to Ook, who looked ready to throw his boomerang at him once more. He managed to duck out of the way before it hit him, as he slammed his foot into the pillar, leaving him unable to catch it as it hit the creature in the face, knocking him to the ground. He hurried over and got in a good couple of hits, feeling kinda bad as it clutched its butt in pain, before jumping back onto the pillar, reclaiming the boomerang in his hand before throwing it at the chestnut haired male again, though this time it hit. Diggs skid across the ground, having blood on his lip. That cetainly didn't feel good. He spit the blood out of his mouth, before he raced over, and slammed the pillar so hard that it broke in half, knocking Ook over once more, causing the boomerang to go flying out of reach. He grabbed his sword and stabbed... something. His eyebrow rose since it sounded like he cracked an exoskeleton of some sort. Ook howled in pain, clutching it's red bottom, before it crashed hard into another of the pillars, before hitting the ground, as a half dead spider went flying into the short grass below, as he watched it curl up into a sort of fetal position, before disappearing in a puff of black smoke. The said baboon seemed confused as it found itself in a part of the temple he wasn't in the last he remembered. "What happened here...?" Diggs heard it mumble in confused. It seemed to freeze, realizing it wasn't alone, as it looked over its shoulder to see Diggs was standing right there, having a sword in his hand. "Ah! A human! Don't hurt me!" A sweat drop appeared above his head as Ook jumped from platform to platform til it leapt through a opening that was above. "...He had a spider possessing him? No wonder he was so pissed off..." Diggs went over, and found the boomerang the baboon had been holding before, and picked it up... it wasn't glowing anymore, but it wasn't seeming to respond to him. Could it be he couldn't awaken its powers? He frowned, as he looked over at the gate that had sealed him inside this room. He attatched the boomerang to his belt, and went over. He had strength that Link always envied over, and he was only proud of cause of the said blonde. He could get the gate up enough for Link to get through... right? He grabbed the gate, giving a squeeze, before attempting to lift it upwards. "Diggs, don't do that, a Goron can only manage to push that up, you're only human! Don't be stupid..." "I'm... not only human... I can do this... I have to...!" He hissed out. A rumble was heard, as the the spikes were being lifted out of the grass, though the sharp parts of the gate were causing blood to drip from his hands, as he managed to lift it at least halfway up. He finally felt that was enough, as he released his grip, as he moved backwards, obviously seeming tired. "There... I did it... Link..." Feeling a bit drained, his eyes closed as he fell onto the grass, his arms spread out, feeling he didn't wanna move for the moment, as he drifted into darkness. "...Ooo... wolf boy is not gonna like this..."

Diggs had his legs wrapped tightly around the rope that once helped support the bridge that used to be there... thanks a lot, Ook. He had his eyes focused on the door that was above... he would not look down. Don't get him wrong, he wasn't afraid of heights... he was afraid of falling and meeting the ground below because of the height. He finally had ground under his head as he gripped the rope, and released his legs, and swung over, and landed on the ground, only for him to stumble and he fell over onto his ass. "...That could have been more graceful..." He grumbled, as he stood up, brushing the dust off his arms. He began to walk towards the door that the baboon ran into... if he took care of him before Link returned, then it would be simpler for them to find this item that Midna was looking for without too much distraction. As he was reaching for the door... "What in the world are you doing?!" "Ah!" Diggs jumped back, holding his heart. "You don't know what will happen if you go in there by yourself, are you trying to get yourself killed?" The male's ears lowered, "N... No, it's not like that... I just..." "You just what? Is fighting this monkey alone supposed to prove your power or something? Your so strong you think you don't need help?" Midna was picking at him, trying to get an answer out of him. "You men are all the same." "I'm not trying to prove my strength! I'm making up for my mistake!" Midna blinked, before her face became serious. "What mistake?" Diggs clenched his fist tightly, "I screwed up... Link trusted me to protect Ordon... I let the kids get captured by those things and dragged into the Twilight to suffer fates as Spirits... if I can stop this thing while Link takes care of the monkey, then my sin will finally be atoned." Midna watched his carefully... his feelings were genuine... he was a bit stupid, but he had a good heart, and the strength to back up his words. How corny. "Very well. I shall assist you." He nodded as a way to say thank you, as she disappeared, as he pushed the door open, watching as it slid to the side, as he stepped inside.

Midna tapped her chin while following him in the temple, still stuck in her shadow form since they weren't in the Twilight. "I guess I could do that for you. You two are helping me get something I need in all this craziness. Try not to get hurt without me, wolf boy." With a flash of a smile, she quickly disappeared into the shadows and with that, Link didn't hear from her.

Diggs murred, holding the other gently, as they kissed softly, ignoring the bored groan coming from the Twilight Imp. "I'll be okay, Link... I'll see you at the top." He offered a teasing wink, as he slowly released the other's hand as he headed back inside the lower part of the temple.

Out of the shadows around Diggs and Link appeared Midna, who seemed both confused and peeved. "Oh! What is going on?! Has there been a monkey fight?!" Her eyes drifted over to the broken bridge, seeming a bit disappointed. "Oh no! Now we can't go any farther. We might as well head back. I don't know what is going on, but it seems she wants to take you somewhere, so maybe you should just follow her." Diggs was staring at the door where the weird baboon had run off into, as he looked over at Link. "Um... would you be okay helping her finding the other monkeys? I think I can get across."

Diggs went over, and easily pushed the door, as it moved backwards and opened up, allowing them to step outside, as they found they were in front of a bridge that seemed to lead to the upper part of the temple, the wind around them blowing crazily.

Diggs looked over at Link, before giving a grin. He went over to each of the torches, as he brought the flame over them, allowing the old torches to be lit once again. Once all of them were lit, a bridge came down, and allowed them access to the next area. "Yes! That was good thinking."

He nodded, as he lifted the lantern back up, as they came into the main room of the temple. They came to crossway that had a lowered bridge too low to reach them to the other side, as Diggs pulled out the lantern, trying to get a better view of everything.

Diggs connected the shield to his arm, and seemed to hold the sword like one would hold a knife. "I think this suits me better. Don't you?"

"Treasure chest~" Diggs said in excitement, as he hurried over, and opened it up. If he had wolf tail at the moment, it would be wagging like crazy. "Wooooah... Link... there's a short sword in here. I bet I could use it." His fanged grin had returned, as he pulled it out, gripping it by the handle, the blade seeming to have a hook on the end.

Diggs slowly opened his eyes, as he gave out a little sigh. "I'd feel a little better about fighting against the spider things by myself if I had my own sword at least..."

Diggs felt a shiver go up his spine... he hated feeling like there was many eyes on him at once. He quickly covered his eyes, turning around. "If that's what I think it is... please just kill it..."

"Help me! I need help! The other monkeys like me... they've been caged up like I was!" Diggs blinked, as he went over to the door. "Other monkeys like you were captured? Well, don't worry, we'll help them."

Diggs looked over at Link, rubbing the back of his head. "Sorry about that...I got a little carried away." He calmed down a little, as he got the key he had snatched from them, before he unlocked the door.

Diggs lashed out, spin kicking the Bokoblins into the walls, the impact already breaking one of their skulls, as he lashed out, his hands wrapped tightly around the last one's neck. *What are you doing?! Haven't we followed his orders?! We left you alone like he said!* "Shut up!" He hissed, he didn't really like hearing their voices, it sounded like nails being dragged across a blackboard, as he threw his foot straight through his chest, causing the ribs to pierce its lungs, as it died, as he let it fall to the ground.

Diggs looked inside, seeing there was a door leading to the inner part of the temple although there were a bunch of Bokoblins and Deku Babas in the way. Others who would get caught would get stuck chosing if they wanted to be beaten to death by clubs or be the possible next meal to a Deku plant... hmm... such wonderful choices. "Here, Link." He offered the Lantern to him. "If you can get rid of the Dekus, we can use their stems as torches... I'll get rid of the Bokoblins."

"I'm glad your awake, I got us to the temple while you were asleep." Diggs looked over, though he stayed a bit behind Link. "Though... on the way here, I kept seeing spiders webs..."

Diggs looked over, holding the lantern in front of them, offering a little smile as he saw the blonde was awake now. "Hey, Link, are you feelin better now?"

The feeling of another's weight on his shoulder hit Diggs, as he looked over, finding Link had fallen unconsious, making him jump, as he caught the other male before he fell over, as he knelt down, having the other rest in his arms. What just happened...? Link mentioned seeing a golden wolf, and then he passed out on him... "Link...don't worry, you took care of me while I was unconsious, I'll protect you." He soothed, as he brought the other onto his back, before continuing down the path towards the temple.

"Wolf... what wolf?" He looked forward, but he didn't see anything... did Link see something he didn't? The said gold-white wolf seemed to position itself into a attack pose, as he leapt out at Link, a bark head as it did.
