OOC: LINK IS HERE >:

IC:

The young male stood on one of the terraces of the half destroyed castle. Heavily panting he leaned against one of the bigger bricks on the battle field, cause that was what Hyrule Castle was turned into: Monsters of all sorts climbed out of the windows and over the walls into the streets and back yards of the castle to meet with those that tried to win back their lands which had been covered with darkness. Many fell on both sides, but the young man had something to do, which only he could do. He inhaled deeply, threw the tip of his green hat over his shoulder and took his blade into his left hand and his shield into his right. With the back of his left hand he rubbed a little of blood from the corner of his mouth. He blinked a few times and felled ready to battle again. His flying companion followed him everywhere he went. She was silent… for her doing.
He took a step towards the staircase and rushed towards the highest tower, ignoring the pain in his right leg. A piece of Stalfos had hit him hard when he had blown it apart.
On the upper floor he met with the dark King, at last. His dark skin had almost the same colour as the rocks falling on the terrace, some covered with fire, others with sharp edges.
His red hair had the colour of flames. The boy shrugged, saw the sharp side of the shining blade of his opponent and felt how the heavens split in two.

"Hey, listen! WAIT UP FOR ME!" A clear blue light dashed through the woods, trying to catch up with a greater, more clear flash whose speed was much higher. "HEY! DIDN'T YOU HEAR ME?"
The flash in front of the fairy suddenly stopped almost making her smash into its clear body.
"What was that for?" she asked angrily, glaring at the spirit in front of her. His almond-shaped eyes had a mischievous air around them. Instead of answering the fairy, the spirit started to move again, at top speed, but now upwards, to wards the top branches of one of the highest firs in the Woods. His slightly see through finger grabbed the trunk which was only a few cm's in diameter at this height. He gazed into the distance, towards the northern horizon, where all was still dark. Behind him the sun cast a magical glow on the treads of fog that danced around the trees. The wind played with his bangs and long hat. As he narrowed his eyes the fairy caught up with him. "WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?" She continued with her rant. But the spirit raised his left hand and made her shut up. It surprised her how much he resembled his human shape from long ago. "Be quiet for a moment…. Navi…" Curiously she looked into the same direction of him, but couldn't distinguish anything else except the smell of death and rotting or drought and destruction. "The wind…" he broke the silence. The voice that came from deep within his heart was warm and almost sounded if he was singing.
He sat down on one of the branches, one leg on the branch, one leg hanging down. "It's bringing the scent of change…"

OCC: Ugh. It's a little uncomfortable knowing Mosquett sexually abused someone. ._.; I have my reasons for feeling this way, but can we at least change that? >> Like Mudkipblader said before, kids are reading this too. >>

Dara listend as Alex explained how she could use a knife/dagger. She pouted slightly, feeling as if she degraded slightly. Alex was commenting her and telling her many of the advantages of her having a knife, but she dreamed of wielding a sword. For some reason, swords had always fascinated her. Thinking about her village, she sighed slightly. Back at her old home, she remembered the large sword hanging in the village hall. Dara was almost tempted to tell the two boys, but then she remembered what happened to the sword. One of the Dark King's minions made off with it in the raid of the city. Once again, she sighed.

"Well, what are we waiting for? Let's go ahead and head for Alex's house and on towards the Lost Woods. I guess we can ask around for a weapons shop and what not."

Grabbing the two boy's hands, she led them onward past the sqaure and towards the draw bridge that led out of the city. Smiling, she looked towards the horizon. A little feeling of longing entered her heart as she wondered where Rael was. She also wanting to give him the pastry!

"All right men. Let's move out!"
 
RP = Dead D: Bring it back to life? =]

--------

Rael was confused with everything. Too many things were going on at once. He just found out that he could learn magic, then he finds out that Mosquett was not only a rapist, but a murder and was in jail for who knows how long, and now he finds out that the Princess Zelda is being attacked! Honestly, Rael didn't want to help out. But he felt the need to, he didn't want anyone to end up hating him.

"I'll go and get the others, you go on without me!" Rael shouted as he went to go and look for Dara, Dark, and Alex. "I'll be right back, ok?"

With that, Rael was off. He remembered seeing them go into Hyrule market, so he ran there. He looked around, kind of confused with where things were. Rael began to have thoughts about Dara and Dark going off somewhere and possibly... He quickly got out of those thoughts, Dara would never do that! Rael heard Dara's soft voice echo as she shouted something. His thoughts were getting worse about it, but tried to ignore it. He went in the direction where the voice came from and saw Dara.

"Dara!" Rael shouted as he ran up to her. He frowned slightly seeing Alex and Dark, even though he knew he was suppose to go and get them too. "Mosquett needs everyone's help, so do you want to help out?"

He noticed her with a dagger and wondered why she had one in the first place. He noticed the sweet treats too and wondered what she was going to do with them.

"You have a dagger now? I didn't know you were into daggers.." Rael then realized that they went shopping. He gritted his teeth as he took this as if they were dating. "If you wanted anything, I could of gotten it for you." His eyes moved over her body and he thought for a second. "You seem more like a sword person, I'd give you my sword if you wanted it. But I doubt you really want it, huh?" He felt like a idiot.
 
"Rael, good to see you again." Dark smiled as he saw the swordsman, he was happy to see one of the others again. After all, Alex, Dara and the swordsman Rael were the only people he considered to be his friends. Even though he know them for only 12 hours so far, he felt like had known them for much longer. He pointed a the bag Dara was holding with both hands as he said: "I think you might be hungry after such a rough night, you might as well eat something." He looked over to Alex and the happy look changed into a slight confused look. "What is it exactly that you're planning?" he asked the Archer.
 
((OOC: I must stop being gone so long. ))

IC:

Mosquett didn't quite agree with Rael's choice but he accepted it. He stood to full hight in order to find the Princess. luckily her fear had rooted her to the spot, he ran over and stood between her and her assailant, "HANDS OFF THE PRI-!" he stopped in mid sentence, "Mizujin?!" he asked seeing the Zorian standing there, (S said we could use him when ever XD ). The poor creature seemed stunned by what had just happened.

"All I wanted to do was lead her to the others..." Mizujin said shaking himself.

Mosquett sighed then turned to the princess, "And you?"

She smiled, "Um...." she could say nothing for she had been scared for no reason.

Mosquett sighed, "Let's get to the others... I'm sure not enough people will recognize me this morning... let's go..."

They walked together into town, Mosquett wanted to get himself new clothes, the princess as well but they were unsure where to go. Mosquett saw a small stall that had an old woman as it's proprietor, "I'll go..." Mizujin said when he saw Mosquett staring. Mosquett blushed but allowed the Zorian to go with a good 10 yellow Rupees that he had taken from the Guard he killed. a few moments later Mizujin returned with simple peasant outfits. "This is the best I could find." he said.

Mosquett took the clothes and looked it over, it looked a lot like what he used to where when he was a boy, he sighed and looked to a house that seemed to have no one living in it. "Guard the door Mizujin." he said as he pulled the princess inside. After a few minutes they exited completely redressed. The princess was upset due to the fact that she looked like a commoner and she expressed this loudly. "This is awful! Look at me!"

Mosquett closed his eyes, he had never dreamed that she would be so difficult. "To the others I assume?" he asked Mizujin who was covering his ears.

Mizujin nodded and they went to where the others stood the Princess complaining the whole way. When they stood next to them Mosquett stated, "Does Anyone have a rag on hand? Or... possibly... a rope?"

((OOC: RANDOM XD))
 
Alex stroked his chin. "Well Dark. It includes a lot of arrows.... A number of swords...." He said laughing. He snapped his head to the right, his mophead of hair following. "Well it's best we get off then. "Hey Rael calm down. I had one lying around back at my place and I thought it'd be easier for Dara because it would make her really agile on the battlefeild." He said shrugging. "But I say we go for the horses tonight and ride through the night to the other town so then people wouldn't exactly see us. But I'm sure Rael and Mosquett could keep their words ready and I could bring up the rear with my bow. Then keep Rael and Mosquett near the front." He said starting to pace.
 
Dark frowned as he heard what Alex' plan was. He wasn't quite sure what the boy was saying, but he was plotting something grand. After a little silence, Dark spoke to the archer, hesitating at the beginning: "I'm not so sure what you're plotting, Alex... but" here he became silent again... "I'd love to help. It's just.." He paused once more before saying:" I don't have any weapons." He stated the last part on a very light tone, even though he knew it was nothing to do lightly about. It was just very obvious.
He frowned a little more when the ran over Alex' words again. Didn't he just say 'tonight'? What would they be doing the rest of the day that remained? They were like planning the biggest escape since.. yeah, since when? The Era of Legends? Dark grinned when he thought that. He told the others that they could hide in his house if they liked. It would give him the opportunity to look around and make sure he didn't forget anything important for the upcoming journey.
 
Dara looked from side to side at each of the men's faces. She was becoming more and more confused the longer this raged on. By the way they were talking, they were supposed to head off to the Lost Woods. Now, however, everyone seemed to have different ides. Tapping her foot slightly, she reached for Rael's sword. She held it in her hand, running her fingers over the handle. For an average sword, she found the detail and craftsmanship to be quite detailed. Frowning, she handed the sword back to Rael. She wanted to keep it, but she felt she should at least spare him the trouble and get her own. That way, Rael wouldn't have to buy another sword.

"I'm sorry Rael, but I guess I need to get my own. You won't be short of a weapon that way. I want it, but I have to say no."

She placed the sword in Rael's hand. Her attention then turned to Alex. He was apparently plotting some sort of escape plan. Sighing, she leaned against a wall. More work and more walking. Pouting slightly, she decided to speak.

"Oh okay. I guess we'll go by night. I'm not too good with horses though. I'll try my hardest for you guys since we're friends."
 
Rael frowned as his offer was rejected. He didn't mind giving her the sword, he couldn't even fight with it. Dara was much better off with it.

"You can have it, I don't mind." Rael was a little too stubborn to give up. He was determined to change her mind. "It would be better off with you. I can always get a new one. I have some money."

Which was true, he did. He had managed to steal some from his dead father before he left. His father surprisingly had a lot of money when he would say that they had none. He was hoping Dara would say yes to his offer or at least let him buy her one.

He noticed her not looking too happy when she found out that they would be leaving soon. No surprise there, it was getting very old traveling around. They hadn't even gotten proper sleep yet! Rael wondered if they even knew where to go. The only one who seemed to understand anything was Mosquett and he was off rescuing that princess girl.

"Dara, if you don't want to walk I could um..." His face turned a light red. "I could carry you if you'd like.."

He looked down at his feet, so embarrassed and nervous. He was expecting her to say no to his offer. What was he thinking? She would only say yes if Dark offered it. Jealousy clouded his mind as he thought about it.
 
((OOC: I hoped that more would post if I waited.. oh well... BTW Mosquett the Princess and Mijuzin are with you guys.))

Mosquett stood to his full hight, with the princess before him he looked like the guardian he was meant to portray. Mijuzin sighed, "Guys... it's getting dry out here." he touched his skin, he was starting to dry out, "I need water... does anyone have any?"

Mosquett thought about making it rain but then pushed the thought aside, more introductions into his power were not needed and what was more, Mosquett was starting to feel his powers draining again, something he had not felt since he had escaped and it was a horrible feeling. "Children" he stated addressing them all, "We must learn to work as a team, not as a single. I know that most of you are used to being on your own, I myself would rather do this mission myself but I know that it can not be done so. We must learn to trust in each other as much as we trust ourselves, or don't as the case might be." he looked down at the Princess, "Each of us has a specific gift that the other do not-."

"unless they are you Mosquett?" The princess interrupted then blushed.

Mosquett smiled despite himself, "Thank you for the compliment Princess, but no... I do not have the gifts they posses. I have magic and swordsmanship. that is as far as my gifts go for i have lost many since I was put in that tower. I think that if we are to work together that we must know what each is capable of, what we can be used for." He ran a hand threw his now silky clean hair. "I can destroy..." he looked down at the Princess, "Zelda can heal." he turned to Mijuzin who said:

"I can breath underwater, and my swimming skill is remarkable even by Zorian standards."

Mosquett nodded, "That means that we are only good outside of combat, I apologize children, but I will not fight. If i do i will surly loose control of myself and you will be forced to stop me. Although you will be unable." Mosquett didn't mean to boast but it was true.

((I got nothin'....))
 
Dara sighed and rejected Rael's offer once again. She hated denying him, but she wanted her own sword and wanted to get it herself. It more or less a pride thing, rather than disowning Rael.

"I'm sorry Rael. I want my own sword. I want to get it myself too. "

Yawning, she began to stretch. The sun was beginning to dim it's light slightly, meaning afternoon was soon about to pass into evening.

"Hm.. Mosquett is here?"

Dara looked up and saw Mosquett standing in the group. That meant everyone was together now, therefore they could actually do something. Rubbing her eyes, she looked around.

"Mosquett... we're not all children you know."

She folded her arms over her chest and pouted. Then she listened to him talk about gifts and what everyone might or might not be able to do. She sighed. Dara wasn't sure what her talent was.

OCC: Sorry this sucks. Just got a new computer.
 
Alex rubbed his eyes. "Is it this late already?" He said as the sun dimmed. He rubbed his eyes again and snapped his head to the right with his hair following. As he listened to Rael continue to try and get Dara to use her sword. "Come on Rael. You'll need the sword. Besides were probably low on funds anyways. We can get the sword later but for now we need, again need, to get more money or we will be screwed for a long time. But now we need to get those horses while we can, before the sun sets. We need to get off now. We cant stop now for a spot of tea." He said withdrawing his bow and knocked a newly cut arrow. "Well who's leading? How about Mosquett and Rael?" He said shrugging. "I'd happily stay back and shoot." he said shrugging.
 
Hey guys, it's probably a screen resolution/size issue, but some of you are cutting it really close to the paragraph minimum rule.

SlashVorlex, I'd suggest trying to crank out about two-three more sentences than you usually do, because you're really sitting on the fence. xD;
 
OOC: ((Listen to the Almighty Loki once known as I don't even remember anymore, you have changed your name to much Loki... ok... now for a post... all wonder at what happens when you type a Zelda themed post while listening to Spice Girls songs.))

IC:

Mosquett looked to the girl who commented that they were not children, "My dear... I am over 200 years old... to me you are but children." he chuckled slightly. "As for being leader... I don't think so... I'm old... but that does not make me a good leader." her thought about it, "or does it?" he laughed full heartily thinking himself quite funny.

Zelda on the other hand didn't think he was funny at all, "I should lead! of all of you I have the highest ranking! I'm the Princess after all!" she crossed her arms in front of her full chest. "I don't even know why you would consid-"

Mosquett plastered his hand onto her mouth, "Sweet princess... right now you have the rank of hostage... you are no longer royal... for you like me can not fight." he stood to full hight, "I think that Dark should lead. He has the will and strength of a leader... and he reminds me of what I used to be.... before all the misunderstandings." He laughed again this time it echoed throwout the town giving all who heard it the long forgotten shivers that only came with the presence of Ganon.

Mujizin (that is not how you spell it!) walked over and shook himself, "You know I think Mosquett makes a good point, I mean Dark does seem the leader type after all. Most of us are like lost..." he blushed referring mostly to himself, "I think that the only one that knows anything about anything is Mosquett but that's only because he's so old that if he didn't he would have to be the stupidest man on earth," Mosquett started to nod but caught the insult and glared at the Zorian, Mujizin (how many times will i write it before I get it right?) ignored him, "We must figure out what we are doing here... and what we are planning to do before we go running in the dark." He blinked a few times and shook for he had started to sweat something that Zorians do when they got to dry. "Mosquett, the princess and i are only here because we have things we have things to loose... well Mosquett I don't think has anything to loose... anymore...."

Mosquett turned away from everyone, the Zorian was right he no longer had anything left to loose. "We must..." he started but then decided against it, "Nothing... it is not important.... we must go dear ones... we have many one-long runs to cover before we reach even the half way point in our journey."

He looked down and saw the princess staring at him confused, "Long what?"

Mosquett sighed, not many knew the old words anymore so he did not blame them for not knowing what a one-long run was. yet he was not sure what they were now called. "He means miles, actuality five miles." Mijuzin chimed in and Mosquett turned to him surprised, "I was taught by very old Zorians..." he admitted with a smile.

((what ever happened to my Spice Girls Inspiration?! it died!))
 
WTF RAEL. Rael is jealous D:

----------
Rael wasn't too happy to hear his offer get rejected once again. He looked a little hurt and he was, but he was trying to hide. He hated how easily she could hurt him.

He attempted at paying close attention to everyone, but his mind was off in space right now. He was wondering when they would actually make a attempt at leaving. He heard them mention something about a leader. Of course Dark would be it. Not that he cared that much, he just got tired of hearing how awesome Dark was.

Rael wasn't in the mood for any of this and this is not what he had planned when he left his home. So far everything had gone wrong. He met a amazing girl that he had fallen in... No! He couldn't fall in love. He would never allow that. He had met a amazing girl that he had a crush on. Nothing more. What Rael didn't really realize is that he was and is in love with her and it would remain that way. Everything was great at first, then they had to meet Dark and Alex. Not that he has anything against them, he just got jealous was all. Then this whole mess started and they are right back where they started. Was anything going to happen at all?

"I'm going on a walk." Rael said randomly, disrupting the conversation. "I won't be far, I guess let me know if we go anywhere. It's really up to you guys."

And with that, he was off walking around the market.
 
Dara frowned as she was called a child once again. Although Mosquett was quite old, that still didn't give him a right to say that! His appearance was more like a teenager's than a person who has lived over 2 millioniums! Sighing to herself, Dara decided to drop the subject and leave it be. There was no use arguing over such a stupid matter. She now wondered why she even had brought it up in the first place.

Now, the group was talking about a leader. Great. Just what everyone needed. Someone was going to blast in an argument. Dara didn't mind who leaded the group. She was just "along for the ride" as they say. All her attempts of pushing the group forward failed. This counted her out of the leader decisions. Hearing Mosquett's mention of Dark, Dara began to wonder.

"Well, shouldn't we all vote? It's fair that way. Dark hasn't given his say so in this, so therefore, we can't automatically nominate him if he doesn't want to. Don't get me wrong, he seems like a great leader. We need his consent though."

A little nervous, Dara's voice backed down. She was no unsure of herself, and whether or not she had aggravated anyone. Sitting down on a stone ledge, she stared off into the sunset. It was now nearing evening, the Evening Star almost in full view. Everyone needed to make a decision and stick to it. Pretty soon, it would be dark fall. The guards would roam the market square.

"We need to make a decision. Evening is upon us you guys..."

Just as she was about to finish her sentence, she watched Rael wonder off. He always seemed to leave at such random times. She wasn't sure if it was herself, or if he was just shy. He needed to come back to the group so everyone could stick together. Dara was a little nervous, for an unknown reason, to chase after him.

"Maybe he will come back in time.." She whispered.

OCC: Is all I got for now.
 
OOC: Sorry, Loki for the short post. I will make sure they'll be larger in the future. D:
Sorry for my absence, I was on a vacation since the 2nd of August. :3

Dark unintenionally looked at his right hand when he heard Mosquett talk about special gifts and powers. He couldn't see the bright side of the upside down triangle on his hand. With his left index he followed the outline of triangle hidden beneath the cloth around his hand. What good could possible come out of it? In Hylian legends all triangles were with the point up, not down. Things that went reverse usually meant something bad, a turn of events. He sighed, lost in his thoughts. He suddenly turned his head up, back to the conversation when he heard his name. It took him a while to figure out that they were talking on choosing a leader. And apparently someone proposed to make him the leader of their group... HIM? If Dark wasn't so surprised about the idea, he would have started laughing at the thought of it alone alone. Dark never had lead people, he didn't even know how he had to do it. He didn't even have a weapon, let alone knew how to use it. But then the feeling he had this morning came crouching from from the back of his mind. He quickly moved it back by shaking his head slightly, it made his purple hair move a little. As he opened his eyes again, he noticed that Rael had wandered off. He was a little worried about the boy. At first he seemed like a really nice guy, whom Dark wanted to befriend, but now... he seemed kinda... off? He raised his hand to the others to indicate that he had to do something. He turned and rushed off towards the swordsman. "RAEL!" he yelled.
 
OMG. This took me forever D: Sorry! Whenever I got on, the forum was done XD Lawl. Sorry if this is short too, my brain is dead. Damn school...

----------

Rael looked back at Dark who was following his trail. This confused him a bit because he thought that Dark would stay behind with the others. He sighed to himself. Dark was just going to make himself look better so Dara would love him much more.

"Hey Dark." Rael managed to fake a small smile. "What's up? What brings your over here? Are we going already?"

Rael looked back over at everyone and they were still having their conversation about something. This confused Rael even more because everyone looked like they were into the conversation so it's not like they were all waiting for him to come back so that they could leave.

"Shouldn't you be over there with everyone?" Rael was tempted to say with his girlfriend, but he still wasn't for sure if they were actually dating.

He noticed everyone looking exhausted and stressed. The day had went by so fast, faster than he expected. Night was already coming and they all had no where to go. What were the plans anyways? Did anyone even live near by? Rael didn't know his way at all so it's not like he could suggest a place. He began to wonder if they would be able to sleep tonight.
 
Dark looked over his shoulder back to where the others wer standing. Dara looked turned her head a little towards the boys, smiled and quickly turned her head again, putting a loose strand of her long, brown hair behind her long ears. Dark turned back to Rael and noticed that the boy had a strange expression on his face, but that quickly vanished again. For one second Dark thought he had dreamed it.
Rael had been behaving quite strange lately... Not that Dark knew the guy that good, but he thought that his behaviour of today did not match that of yesterday...

Dark shook his head when Rael asked him his second question. "Not really... It'd be best if we left all to-..." He saw Rael looking to something behind him. Dark turned his head.."-gether..."
He had noticed (or thougth) what Rael was looking at. Rather who...
He looked back at Rael, who tried to hide his emotions from the purple haired boy standing in front of him. Dark didn't know what to think of it... was he mad at her because she refused to take his sword? Or...
A slight grin appeared on his lips... but he didn't say more about it... he didn't want to ruin chances to make friends, Rael could teach him a think or two about swordfighting...

"Hey, we gotta leave together... we're more powerful in group than alone. I've wanted to leave this city since... since I got the chance to take a sneekpeak of the world out there... Now that I got the chance, I'm gonna take it. I don't know what the future will bring, but somehow, Mosquet's idea of going to the forests, somehow seems quite good to me. And... it seems a strong swordsman could come in handy..." He turned around and started to walk back, but after two staps he turned around and said with a mischievous grin, but he truely meant it, "Oh, something more... she wants you there too..."
 
Should be doing a American History paper, oh well 8D This is more fun

------------

Rael looked at him rather confused with that statement. He didn't understand what he meant and just shake his head.

"I have no idea what you are talking about." Rael glanced over at Dara again and frowned a little. "Should we leave then?"

Rael hadn't seen much of the world, either. He had been trapped in his home for so long that he never had the chance to see what the real world was like. He ended up in Hyrule market some how and he is still a bit clueless about how that happened. He's glad that he did though, other wise he'd be stuck at home with his fathers corpse.

"I haven't seen the world either." Rael stated as him and Dark began to head back to the large, frustrated group. "What are our exact plans though? It's almost dark and it's too dangerous to be standing around here." Rael looked up at the fading starry sky. "Should we leave now and attempt to escape from whoever chases us?"
