Link was getting sick of these bugs. He had filled every section of the vassal except one. And the last bug was on the lookout tower. There was no way he could jump from the roofs up there. Midna wouldn't do it either, but Link doubted she would help anyway.
"C'mon hurry up!" urged Midna kicking Link's sides.
Link bared his fangs and tried climbing up the ladder. He lost his footing at the seventh rung and fell. This was going to take awhile.
"Hmm?" murmured the imp. "Looks like somebody opened portals into the Twilight. Around the castle too. Maybe we should check there for someone who could help you."
Link nodded quickly. "Good, somebody is on my side here." he thought. But then he realized what that meant, the enemy took over the castle! He urged Midna to warp him and she smiled.
"Alright dog, let's go." she laughed snapping her fingers.

Kai sat in his cart recalling his time before joining Beat and everyone else. He sighed to himself. "It's all behind you now Kai."
"So what did you do before deciding to come with us?" asked Richard sitting down next to him.
"Let's just leave it at bad things." muttered Kai. "I wouldn't have the friends I have now if I was still that way."
Richard shrugged in indifference. "I doubt it. What happened in the past won't affect who you are now. We know the Kai that's here with us, but I think we all want to know the previous Kai." yawned Richard as he stood up. "I'm not gonna make you talk, but here's a little advice. Beat told me about his past full of suffering, reliving the pain. You can do it too."
He then walked off leaving Kai behind. Kai looked at his cleaned blade and traced paths he had seen blood go down. He sighed as he sheathed it and headed to join the rest of his friends.
"I can do it, I can admit my mistakes." he repeated as he walked.

Beat and Kafei returned to the kitchen of the Stockpot Inn, arms full of groceries.
"I don't think we needed this much." gasped Anju.
"It's not just for the kitchen darling." explained Kafei. "I'm going to help Beat for a while. He says that bad things are happening at Great Bay, and I trust his instincts."
"Besides, we overheard somebody say he saw Setton headed for the ocean. So Kafei has a chance at catching him." added Beat separating his supplies from the kitchen's.
Anju tried to argue but her grandmother put her arm on Anju's hip.
"Child trust them. Something evil is happening in the ocean." she nodded.
Beat grimaced at that and quickened his pace. "I wish I had my sword, but I'll just have to stick with magic." he sighed.
Kafei ran off to the mayor's residence to grab something he said was "extremely necessary".

Beat stood at the West Gate tapping his foot impatiently waiting for Kafei. The guard refused to let him pass even though he had seen him talk with Kafei.
Kafei ran up to join Beat with a cloth covered package strapped to his back. He had a look that said "I'm not telling" in his eyes, so Beat just sighed and followed his elder.
When Beat looked at Termina field again he felt like something was off. He could see the same dark clouds he saw when he was with his friends over the ocean.
"That's strange." muttered Kafei.
Beat felt uneasy as they proceeded towards the darkness.

Travie sat impatiently outside the wall if Twilight, polishing his weapon. Reggi kept looking around nervously.
"What's wrong with you, you freak?" growled Travis.
"I just feel like something's wrong. Look, that weird wall is spreading out all around Hyrule field!" explained Reggi. "What if it shrinks around us?" 
"Good point." nodded Travie. "I'm sure Link can handle that area, so let's go check out the field. Lon Lon Ranch is out there, so they may need protection." he suggested.
"But I won't be able to help though. All the supplies for my bombs are in the carts." sighed Reggi.
"Don't worry, I'm sure they'll lend you something that you can make explode." laughed Travie getting up. "C'mon."
"All right." muttered Reggi shrugging his shoulders.

When Link opened his eyes he was standing in the fountain in the town square.
"Hmm, there are four portals open here." yawned Midna. "Somebody's been busy. I don't think you'll be able to get any tears for Eldin here. So let's find someone who can help us and get out of here."
Link nodded in agreement and started roaming the streets.

Kai walked up to Richard and Ivy and told them his story. He figured he'd start with the most trustworthy people in the group. Ivy was taken aback by Kai's story, but Richard showed no surprise.
"I figured it was something like that." sighed Richard.
"So, you really did those things?" asked Ivy.
Kai nodded sadly. He was about to say something when he saw a creature walking up to them. He grabbed Richard and Ivy and pulled them back.
"What are you doing?!?" shouted Richard.
"Don't you see that thing?" growled Kai.
"What thing?" asked Ivy nervously.
"That wolf!" spat Kai drawing his sword.
"I don't see anything." muttered Richard walking off.
"You seem off today." sighed Ivy following Richard.
Kai stayed where he was and stared at the wolf.

"He see's us." cackled Midna.
"So there's more than just a wolf." growled Kai advancing on them.
Link wanted to say it was him, but he couldn't talk. Kai kept getting closer bringing the sword closer to it's target. Kai began to raise his sword when an arrow whizzed by and struck his sword.
Kai and Link both turned to see Archer and Navi standing at the end of the street.
"Don't hurt the wolf Kai!" pleaded Archer as he ran towards him.
"It's a monster, just like the other things we found here." stated Kai flatly.
"No it's not. It would've attacked you, but it just sat there." argued Archer looking at Link.
"Two of these spirits can see you, they must be gifted." muttered Impa.
"It's not anything I've seen. It's more calm than a wolfos though, I can say that much." chimed Navi.
"Now that you mention it, I do feel like I've met it somewhere before." sighed Kai. "Sorry about that, I was trying to protect my friends." laughed Kai rubbing Link's head.
Link knew he'd get Kai back, just not as a wolf right now. Impa them jumped up and waved in front of Kai making him jump.
"Ah geez, an imp. Don't do that!" growled Kai.
"I need help from of one of you two. I think you'd be the better choice." Impa said to Kai.
"Neither of us are going to..."
"I'll go!" offered Archer, cutting Kai off.
"Archer reconsider this!" growled Kai.
"The wolf is good. I don't know about the imp though." replied Archer.
Midna laughed at that statement. "You may be able to see us, but you won't be able to help."
"It's not gonna be me." muttered Kai.
Link walked up to Archer and looked up at him. He looked to Midna and nodded.
"Fine you stupid mutt. If you want to come with us come on kid." sighed Midna.
Archer straightened his quiver and followed the imp and wolf.
"Be careful." ordered Kai.
"Yes sir." laughed Archer.

Beat sat in front of the strange wall while Kafei looked at his map.
"This is the entrance to the Great Bay, but this thing is blocking the only way." sighed Kafei.
"Evil things are behind this wall. I can feel dark power back there." growled Beat.
"Well, we can't get in there." noted Kafei as he touched the wall with a stick that went flying into the sand.
The sand then started to boil, as a swarm of leevers began to rise. Beat jumped in front of Kafei and focused on making the sand erupt in flames. But he only managed to make a small wave of flames go towards the monsters.
"Right, you can use magic," stated Kafei looking at Beat control the fire.
"Not that well though." muttered Beat between clenched teeth. "I'm still trying to get control over it."
"Well sorry Grimsley, but you'll have to try harder!" laughed a familiar voice planting his foot in Beat's back.
Beat slid across the sand and turned to face Jacob. Kafei tried to unwrap his package but was pushed down by Edmund.
"Alright Wraith, do it." yawned Edmund.
Then a long claw snagged Beat through the wall and dragged him through it, leaving Kafei alone with Jacob and Edmund.
"So, which of us gets to play with this guy?" laughed Jacob.
Kafei dropped the cloth revealing a full Razor Sword. He had made sure this one stayed shard, and paid for the blacksmith to make it so it'd keep it's edge.
"I'm ready for you!" growled the purple haired man.

Archer quickly climbed the ladder and kicked the bug down. As it splattered across the ground Link collected the last tear. Archer quickly climbed down to follow the wolf to the spring. When the large owl made of light appeared Archer jumped back in surprise. He looked up and saw the dark sky fading into a clear blue sky. He looked back to see Link standing where the wolf had been.
"Link?!?" gasped Archer.
"Good work Archer. Now where should we go to get rid of this weird Twilight?" laughed Link.
"So you knew the kid, that's why you trusted him." yawned Midna appearing as a shadow.
"Midna, this is Archer. Archer, this is Midna who is a complete..."
Midna pushed Link down into the spring interrupting him. Archer laughed when he noticed the path was empty now.
"Where's Travie and Reggi?" asked Archer.
Link then remembered his friends said they'd stay there until he was done. "They left?!?" gasped Link.
"Not my fault!" exclaimed Midna holding up her hands.

Reggi looked over his shoulder and saw the Twilight clearing up by Kakariko. "Travie look! Link did it!" he laughed.
Travis looked back and smiled when he saw it was true. "Let's go back and get Link to help us protect the ranch." he suggested.
"Right!" nodded Reggi starting to run towards the town they just left.

Beat looked into the eyes of black dragon with blood red eyes.
"Remember me Grimsley?" roared the dragon.
"Not particularly." growled Beat, trying to escape the grasp of it's massive claws.
"I possessed Edmund during the competition. I was the more fearsome version." snarled the dragon.
"The one with wings." spat Beat. "I remember now."
"Ready to die?" laughed the demon.
"Now Wraith, remember our orders." sighed Clovis stepping onto it's head. "We're only supposed to rough him up. Oh, and relax Grimsley, it's gonna be easy to get rid of the Twilight covering all of Termina. Just need to free the four giants."
Beat gasped in pain as the dragon released him. He fell to the ground and looked up to see the demon dragon fly off.
"Tata Grimsley." waved Clovis.
Beat started to rise, but fell down. He felt strange in the Twilight. He gasped in pain as the Twilight began affecting his body, making him writhe in pain. He howled in agony and soon fell unconscious.
