OoC: @JBC: I didn't really do anything aside from something you already wanted us to do. xD You did say someone had to save you so I figured I'd be the one. I have a really good idea. ^^
@Dara: We're all in Hyrule now. xD JBC and I are in the dungeons, you three are in the square...and is that it?

IC: "How should we get out of here tonight? These guards have us locked to these walls. It's impossible to move anything but out fee..."

At that very moment it hit him. Mizujin realized how sharp his heel fins were. If he could just flip upside down and heel kick the chains, they snap. Also he hopes that he's quiet enough at doing so so that they don't get caught breaking out.

"Well I know how to get out of the chains, it's all figured out in my head aside from keeping quiet while doing it. But I can't think of a way to get out of the actual cell. Any ideas?"

OoC: Sorry for being so short, but now that we're all interacting with each other we have to wait for responses.
JBC, I was hoping that us two would end up being close friends later. This little event could be the start and then we'd learn to work really well together in battles because we know each other so well. (I assume you have a mysterious history that we don't know yet that you could tell me personally.)
 
OOC: Yeah I know Leader-sama. I is happy nao. 83

IC:

Dara nodded as the man introduced himself. He seemed friendly enough, and he didn't try to lash out and attack her. Maybe he would actually be a friend to her. She hoped so! Dara remembered her childhood when she had a plethera amount of friends. Now, however, it was limited to Rael, a new friend, and a few aquaintances. Maybe this Dark guy could help her out with her dream of redeeming her village. She wasn't for sure though.

"Dark huh? That's a pretty cool name. Sorta mysterious."

Her voice seemed to drift off, somewhere for which Dark or Rael could not enter. Dara stood there for a moment, day dreaming, but finally, snapped back into reality.

"So, what're you doing out here this late? I figured most people would be in bed sleeping, or trying to. Not many people leave their homes at night except theives.." Dara's voice trailed off once again. "But anyways."

Once more, she snapped back into reality and blushed as she realized she was being a little abnormal.

For a moment, she had not heard Rael speaking to her. She was so caught up in her own mind that he was nearly ignored though. Once she heard his voice though, she responded.

"Oh, just sitting here. Rael, this is Dark! Dark this is Rael!" Dara pointed to both the teenagers, trying to introduce them at the same time. Her arms soon became intertwined with one of another, making her look sorta like a pretzel. Dara almost fell over in confusion, but didn't.
 
@ Mudkipblader: Knew what? XD

----------

Rael noticed Dara about to fall over and quickly wrapped his arms around her tiny waist to prevent her from falling over. Rael turned a dark red as he held her, this was all so new to him and he had no idea on how to react to this kind of situation. He noticed Dark looking over and became angry at him for no reason what so ever.

"Are you alright Dara?" Rael asked her, worry filling his voice.

Rael remembered Dara mentioning something about thieves only coming out at night, was this man a thief? Even though the sky was not pitch black yet, thieves might possibly come out sooner now because of the whole "law" meaning nothing now. Rael was ready to pull out his sword if needed. He gave Dark a warning look, as if Dark was some kind of predator getting ready to pounce on prey.
 
OC: that Rael would fall in love with Dara. It's so obvious. XD

Ic: Dark moved a little when he heard Dara saying "thieves". If he said that he was no thief he would be lying, if he said he was one, it would sound so rude and direct. He was no criminal. The only thing he stole were few rupees that were lefte alone or weren't within anyone's sight, but never in great amounts. Only enough to survive, only enough to put aside in order to save some to be able to pay the rent or buy a little of food. Yet Dark shook his head and said, trying to smile: "I'm no thief, at least not one of the thugs you're thinking of. The only reason I'm sitting here, is because my house was still holding the warmth of the day gone by. It was to unpleasant to stay inside. Evening breezes are the nicest ones of all the winds." As if the wind wanted to show it agreed with him, a soft breeze ruffeled their hair. Dark smiled, for once it was a pleasant wind, not one filled with death and sorrow.
He hadn't noticed the sky had turned black, all light of the sun was gone. No stars could be seen. He frowned. He had been outside for too long and it was still a while to his home.
The person that Dara had introduced to him as Rael made strange movement. Dark couldn't read his face in the dark. He had seen that Rael was wearing a sword and somehow it eased his mind. If their was a fighter amongst them they had more chance of coming out from a possible battle alive.

Dark jumped of the edge of the fountain and landed in front of the two youngsters. Now that they stood on the same level, Dark noticed he was a few heads taller than Dara and almost as tall as Rael, although the silver-haired boy was still a little taller than him.
He turned his head towards the darkened castle gate and narrowed his amethyst eyes upon saying: "We gotta hurry... They're coming."

OOC: I thinks you are meture enough... I'll start sending you a bit of Mosquett's story by PM, just don't tell no one.. XD some I will reveal threwout the Rp though... XD

I'm going to be the first to control Pricess Zelda... Me hopes no one minds.

IC:

Mosquett smiled and looked to the Zora, "Leave that to me..."

He closed his eyes and broke threw the long made bond between himself and the Beautful Princess Zelda. Princess... it is time... he whispered into the depts of her sleeping mind.

Zelda sat up in her bed, awakened by the voice of her knight in shining armor. He was calling to her, she was not sure where he was, but he had sent her images threw her dreams and she bealived that she knew which way to go. She slid out of bed, her long blond hair falling over her shoulders in a gorgiuse gold waterfall, she blinked in the darkness then remembering what he has asked she reached under her bed and produced the Queen's Guardian sheild. It was a beautiful thing, made of the strongest silver ingraved with pink silver and even some gold. Zelda held it high, it was not heavy but it was strong. She sighed, she was disapointed that she had not been able to get the sword, but she did know where it was and she hoped that it would help.

She exited her room swiftly, making sure that the sheild did not make unwanted noise. she made her way to the tallest of all the four towers, her father had always told her to never go there, but if her knight was there then she must get to him. She slipped past the guard who was standig half asleep at his post, she went up the long flight of stairs. When she got to the top she saw the two cells, one had a Zora in it and the other had her knight in it, "Sr. Knight!" she whispered loudly for he had never told her his name.

Mosquett looked to her, "Why hello... sweet princess."
 
As Mizujin just stared at Mosquett with confusion, he began to break his own chains. He attempted three times to break his left arm chain until finally getting it. The right arm chain only took him one try as he had got the hang of what to do. Wonder what he's doing. Just looks like he's sleeping. I guess he's just thinking. He got ready to flip and kick Mosquett's chains.

Just then a beautiful girl flew down the hall and Mosquett had greeted her. Mizujin just stared at her in amazement. How'd he get the princess to come here without a single word!?

OoC: I guess I'll start controlling Zelda a bit too...xD But before I go on, I gotta know, does Zelda know who you are? Or does she just recognize you from dreams and such?

NOTE: Italics means thinking.
 
"SEVENTY RUPEES!?"

A voice that cracked through the murky quiet like lightning through a clear night sky erupted from a corner of the town square. A timid looking merchant with a frail, gangly frame was practically cowering behind his portable stall, which was, at best, twenty meters from the fountain. Across from the stall -- or rather, by now, on top of it -- was a tiny little creature, no taller than two and a half feet high, which was waving its little stubby arms around wildly. A high-pitched voice rang out from beneath a large leaf that the creature wore as a mask. Each time the little thing took a step forward, the merchant took one back.

"I-it's a r-reasonable p-price, sir… please, I n-need to feed m-my f-family…" the man stuttered, glancing around him at the ever darkening city. His hands were trembling, and he was eyeing his stall anxiously: he wanted to get back home before it got too late. "If you could just--"

"It's one ruddy loaf of bread, buddy!" the Korok who was still advancing on the retreating merchant bellowed, "You're ripping me off!" The merchant gulped and backed up against a wall, his eyes fixed on the castle gate beyond the fountain. His fidgeting stopped, and he wiped his brow with his sleeve.

"Okay, okay!" the man whispered, handing over a fat loaf of white bread and a paper bag, "Just take it, I need to GO!" He snatched ten rupees from the Korok's outstretched hand, and in a flash, was hurdling down the cobblestone street with his stall in tow. The Korok grinned, obviously pleased with himself, and let the warm, crispy bread slide into the paper bag with a soft, satisfying crunch. Then he turned. Looked around. He obviously spotted the three teens lounging by the fountain, because now he was strolling towards them at a leisurely pace, holding the bag carefully in both hands. As he neared the fountain, still looking just as smug as before, he cleared his throat.

"You three," he stated, his eyes closed and his nose in the air, "You shouldn't be out so late. You know that creepers roam the city at these hours, don't you?" With a glint in his eye, and an intake of air through his nose that could only be described as 'greedy', the Korok came to a halt. That eerie hollow jingling sound that can be heard when a Korok moves ceased, and they stood there in the silence of the night.
 
OOC: @Sabaku; She only knows Mosquett from her dreams, but he has gotten her to fall in love with him, giving him a seariuse advantage over the king. She doesn't really know why he's locked up though.

Note: I am assuming that Ganandorf is the king.... if it not true... I'm gonna change it. ok... let's move on.

IC:

Mosquett smiled kindly to the princess, "Dear sweet princess... help a poor knight out?"

She looked up at him, her mind told her to just drop the sheild and run, but her heart was telling her to stay and help the man who was her only friend since the evil king had taken the throne. She walked up to the cell, "But... I can't open the door." she said placing a delicate hand on the lock.

Mosquett smiled sweetly, "Princess... you are capable of anything..."

She was trasfixed by his seductive smile, so with a full blush on her face she reached forward and touched the lock. Mosquett watched her and used the energy that she brought into the room to send fire threw the princess and break open the lock. She cried out when the lock fell, She backed off and looked at her hand, "I didnt' know I could do that..." she stampered.

Mosquett looked to Mizujin, "Swiftly Mizujin, the guards a long run away must have heard it." He said a bit loudly.

The princess was scared and she hid behind the Sheild hopeing that somehow it would protect her from the fear that she felt due to Mosquett's sudden change in demeaner. He had tossed his hair back so that his his deep brown eyes were visible and peircing threw the darkness. It seemed as though some great evil was about to be unleashed and Zelda had the sudden urge to go to the Zora and tell him not to let Mosquett go.
 
Dara was listening to Dark speak with great interest. Never before had she met a thief that was considered "kind and thoughtful". For an odd reason, she felt a wave of sadness rush over her. She couldn't place a reason as to why this was though. Dara felt the wind run through her legs, and tugged at her skirt. It would have been most unpleasant if her skirt would have blown up. The pleats were moving every which way, making her blush and pull at her skirt even more.

"AHHHH!" Dara cried as she was flushed with embarrassment.

To make matters worse, someone in the distance was causing a big uproar, making Dara's head begin to throb. She hated hearing people yell all the time, especially near her. Years ago, she had learned to tolerate it. Now, however, she was used to peaceful actions by people.

Then, it all grew silent. The yelling had ceased along with the wind. With a deep and thankful sigh, Dara stopped fidgeting with her skirt. Silence did not last long, however. An odd, ringing sound, almost like bells, filled her ears. Dara became a little bit nervous as she saw a blanked lump begin to approach the three.

"What's.. that?" Dara whispered to where only Dark and Rael could hear. She shivered, holding on to Rael's arm by accident.

Neither of them answered. Before long, the person made their way into the light. It was a Korok, barely standing a few feet tall. He spoke with such a gruff voice, Dara did not understand how such a cute thing could sound like that! Once she saw it was an adorable Korok, she released Rael's arm and rushed over to the Korok.

"D'Aww! Aren't you cute?"

Before he could do anything, she picked him up and hugged him violently. "You're the cutest thing! What are you doing out here alone, little guy?"
 
Rael rushed over towards Dara, to make sure everything was alright. He noticed the little Korok and sighed with relief. He, also, could not believe that such a small little thing could create such loud noises.

"Everything alright, Dara?" He asked, sitting down next to her.

Rael then glanced over at Dark and once again, gave him another warning glance. He now could never trust this guy. Thieves cannot be harmless and friendly. Every thief had a "evil" side, so what made Dark any different?
 
Crunch.

The Korok stared in utter horror and disbelief at the girl embracing him. His previously flailing limbs fell to his sides, and he stopped blinking altogether. He had heard the crunch. Heard the sound of his loaf of bread crumpling and breaking inside its warm little paper back. Heard his stomach growl. Suddenly he drew himself up, puffing out his chest and trying to prize loose the hands of his oppressor.

"You IDIOT! That was my bread! I JUST bought that! And you RUINED it!" He kicked his little stubby legs, his eyes shut tightly and his mask convulsing from the heat of the angered face beneath. He huffed, screamed some more, then tired out. His flailing slowed, and he took deep breaths. "Don't you know who I am!?"

[OoC;; Kinda short. :B
 
Dark looked a the little creature that Dara was squeezing in her arms, he obviously didn't like it. He was making more sounds and movements then before. Dark had never seen anything like it, nor had he heard of anything like it. He scratched the the back of his head with his right hand. I guess there's still a lot to learn of the world, he thought and somehow felt that strong urge again to leave this town, for good.
A sudden flash of pain struck his right hand. Beneath the piece of cloth that was tied around his hand, his skin had started to burn. Dark grit his teeth, the timing couldn't be worse. "We gotta run!" he almost yelled. "They're here!" From the castle area strange noises and an cold, glow of light, probably blue-fired torches, were coming.
 
Dara, feeling his body flail insanely, held him out in front of her face. She smiled a little bit, as the Korok looked adorable wore out. He was like a little toy to her, except more leafy and could talk. Although he looked terribly annoyed at her, she still held him in front of her, grinning as much as ever.

"No, I do not know who you are, little guy. All I know is you're so cuuuuute! By the way, my name is Dara!" As she spoke, she twirled around and around. She didn't become dizzy, however.

Looking over at Dark, she tilted her head in confusion. He looked so worried and confused. Nothing seemed to be outside at this hour expect for the four of them. Maybe Dara was over looking something. She did have a tendacy to miss the bigger picture around here.

"What's wrong Dark? Who is coming? I don't see anyone near here." Dara patted her Korok buddy as she spoke.
 
Post 3: A common goal

The heavy breathing had stopped. The Korok was perfectly still, his eyes narrowed beneath his grayed leaf mask. He was holding his breath, masking his presence, almost. With a quick little maneuver, he slipped from the grasp of the girl who held him without uttering so much as a single word of response to her. His legs bent deftly at the knees when he landed, the only sound coming from him being that familiar hollow ringing. He turned his head quickly, glancing behind him suspiciously. The air was solid now. The Korok fought to take in a sharp little breath of it, and then spoke in a voice that was completely alien to his former one: soft, cautious, and calm.

"You kids…" he murmured quietly, adjusting the pouch-studded belt around his tiny waist, "… Get out of here, if you don't want to die." In an almost too-fast-to-see motion, the Korok had reached into one of the pouches and revealed a Deku Nut. He grasped it in his right hand, taking an almost defensive stance. "Oh, and, by the way…" He turned to Dara.

"I'm Link. I am the Hero of Time."
 
Zelda had quickly grabbed Mizujin by the arms before he could get away with Mosquett. Mosquett turned around baffled by what the princess had done. "I can't let you go with him Zora. I have a very bad feeling about this," the princess said. "If you end up getting injured or killed because of this, I couldn't stand to live with myself," tears began to fill her eyes.

"Don't worry princess, I can defend myself. If you really don't feel comfortable with me going with him, you should come along too. Honestly if he was bad in anyway, he wouldn't harm me in front of you," Mizujin said with a bright smile to the princess. "We gotta get going...NOW."
 
Dark was trembeling and his breathing was heavier and faster than usual. He admited it, he was scared.
He had heard stories about people meeting the soldiers of the king. They were lucky to make it out alive. There was one in the street he lived in, with scars all over his body. Dark shivered. Although the pain had weakened, he still felt his heart beat in his right hand. "They are what they call the guardians of the city", he groaned. "They go out each night to clear the city from all and everything that roams the streets at night. Good and bad." The creature in Dara's hand had become silent. Taking something out of his pockets. But Dark knew why he did that. He had warned them, didn't he?
"It's a while to my house", Dark continued. "but if we run, it won't take that long... and we migth... mind you... might be able to keep ahead of them." His eyes shifted to Rael and the young man's sword. He hoped that Rael would be able to fight...

Dara, hearing the words "Link" ring in her ears almost exploded. The Hero of Time was standing right in her grasp! Oh how she had wanted to meet him since she was old enough to actually get out of the house. She had heard legend after legend of his brave deeds and his dedication to the country of Hyrule. From a few female admirers, she had also heard he was quite handsome. This little Korok was not exactly her idea of "handsome". Also, she had heard Link was a Hylian. Dara figured not to press the issue any farther.

"Hello there Link! It's nice to finally meet you! I've always wanted to know you. In fact, you're like, my hero or something!"

Dara began to enter "fan girl mode". It wasn't something she was born with. She had developed it from her lack of a boyfriend. For about 5 minutes, Dara babbled on and on about how she loved Link and how it was such an honor to actually meet him. She then noticed everyone tense up, so she ceased her babble. Confused, she purged more questions.

"Um, really? I had no idea that they did that. I guess we better get a move on huh? Why does everyone look so tense? I can imagine we have more than enough ability to out run them all."
 
OOC: We take PRINCESS!

IC:

Mosquett smiled sweetly, "Dear princess... there is no reason to fear me, I am but your humble servent...." he takes the sheild from her, "Now my dear.... where is my sword?"

She gulped as she looked up at him, he was tall, so tall in fact that it almost hurt her neck to look at him. "It's... in my father's quarters... I wasn't able to get it for you..." once again she was under his spell and willing to do anything for him.

Mosquett placed his hand over her, "Princess... take me there..."

She looked sleepy for a moment then nodded, "....yes..."

She turned and started walking down the stairs, Mosquett turns to Mizujin, "If I had my full powers, i could make us invisible... unfortunataly without my sword I can not consentrate my power enough." he looked towards the princess, "If we wish to get out of here we shall have to learn to trust one anouther... I do not wish to keep the princess under that spell for longer then nessesary." He runs his fingers threw his hair, "Help me gain her full trust Mizujin... and I shall grant you anything you disire."

OOC: Mosquett' making offers! XD
 
OC: I changed something in my post. I was typing so slowly I didn't notice others had posted. ^^"

Ic: Dark sniffed. "Then we have to move NOW! I know what I'm talking about." Suddenly Dark came back to his senses and he prepared himself to run as fast as his feet would allow him. He inhaled deeply. "Those who want to follow me, tag along!"
And then he rushed off, he did not look behind him if anyone followed him. He was afraid, he was afraid to meet those creatures unarmed. And even if he was armed, it would be a miracle if anyone like him would even stand a tiny change. While crossing the square and diving into one of the small, dark streets an almost forgotten memory came back. A memory from 8 years ago, when he was still a small boy.
Dark grit his teeth when he tought of it. It was dark, just like now, around the same time. He had been playing with his buddies (all children of the orphanage) all day long. They had so much fun. While he was running away while playing hide and seek, he got lost in a dead alleyway. Not noticing the night had already fallen, he was unable to find the way back. Even though he had been warned so many time, he did not hide, but kept looking for the way back. And then he was locked in by two of them. Their strange glowing eyes, their strange skin that looked like something that had been dead for a few days, the smell.. and the weapons they carried. One carried a big sword, the other one a bat with spikes. Dark had been terrified, so terrified that he could not think very clear anymore. His right hand had started beating, and his mind went blank. He passed out.
When he came to his senses, he was heavily breathing. Covered in blood, he stood up. And then he saw the two 'guardians laying on the ground. Lifeless. He, the small kid, had nothing.
 
Rael looked at everyone confused, he was spacing out a little so he had no idea what was going on. He grew jealous though as he heard the Korok thing mention he was Link. Rael knew this had to be a fake. This pissed him off as Dara talked about how great Link was. Since when was this little piece of wood thing so great? Rael noticed the thief was gone and sighed in relief.

"Hey, Dara." He was curious to know what had happened to the thief, he left so quickly. "Where did that one guy go?"

Sorry for the short post! XD And that it took so long! I neglect Pokecommuntiy sometimes XD
