Chapter 1 by shadow dude
Dark walked through the vast fields of Hyrule, sweat running down his brow.He looked back behind him a few times to make sure he wasnt following him.He ran a hand through his black hair and sighed.His breathing increased and he felt a strange pain in his chest.He held his hair with both hands and felt to his knees.He could easily hear his heart pound in his chest."W-what is happening to me?"He barly wispered.The pain grew bigger and bigger until it was agonizing.He scremed in pain until his vision became black.
_______________________________________
Dark shot up.Cold sweat ran down his pale face and his chest moved up and down with his rapid breathing.He was in his apparment on the couch.He sighed and looked at his clock."Oh shit!I`m gonna be late for Zelda`s ball!"Zelda was holding a ball for her and Link`s daughter`s, Catilyn`s, fith birthday.Everyone in the kingdom was invited, but Dark was a friend so he was definetly invited.He scrambled to his bedroom and grabbed his red tunic that was outlined in gold.After tieing his boots and brushing out his hair, he grabbed his coat and locked his aparment dor behind him.He ran down the streets, the dead leaves crunching under his wieght.Once he came to the gate, he was kinda surprised to see it opened, though, everyone was invited.He entered the castle`s lobby and speed walked down many corridors.Finally, he made it to large oak doors.He could hear laughing and music and talking on the other side so he pushed the doors open and manuverd his way through the crowd.He spotted Link talking to somebody and walked closer.The person was a girl.She had long, fiery, red hair, bangs puled back, icy blue eyes, a slight tan and muscle and she wore a light blue spegheti strap dress going to her mid-shin.Black, flat heeled, shoes covered her feet and a golden horse necklice sparkled around her neck."Oh, Dark.I didnt see you there."Link said, spotting his friend."This is Malon.She`s the ranch owner`s daughter."

Dark couldnt move his eyes from the beutiful girl standing in front of him.He felt strange, not in a bad way, but, rather, a good way.Dark smiled at her and held out a hand.Malon smiled and shook it."It`s a pleasure meeting you, Dark."Malon greeted, cheerfuly.Dark`s face turned bright red.He cleared his throat and stutterd"Y-you too, Malon"He felt ,somehow, peacful when she said his name.Malon giggled"W-were`s Catilyn?"Dark asked, trying to control himself."Playing tag with her friends."
"Oh, hey guys"Zelda said.She had a hand on her swolen, seven month pregnaungt belly."Hey honey."Link gave her a peck on the lips and the song changed,"May I have this dance, my Queen?"
"Of corse, my hero"Link led Zelda by the hand and left Dark and Malon standing alone.A slight pink brushes Malons face, as Dark`s is still red."S-so, do, do y-you dance?"Dark asked, holding his hand out to her."I`m not the best, but sure."She smiled as she took his hand.Dark`s face turned redder.Malon wrapped her arms around Dark`s neck and Dark caustiously, wrapped his arms around her waist.They swayed to the music and Dark looked down a few times."So, how did you meet Link?"Dark asked, breaking the awkward silence."When I was ten, I was waiting for my father to finish his dilivery to the castle in castle town and I accedently ran into Link, I told him about my father and ,apperintly, my father had fallen asleep.Not a big surprise.You?"
"Well, acually, I used to be evil."Malon cocked her head
"Realy?You seem like such a nice guy, though."
"I wasn`t always.Ganondorf created my to be Link`s shadow and kill him as the middle boss in the water temple.Though, Link defeated me and I found out how much Ganon was a jerk, so I helped Link defeat him."
"Wow.That`s intresting."
"Really?You dont think I`m a freak?"
"Of corse not!I think your rather cute."She giggled.Dark turned even more redder."Y-you really think so?"
"Yeah, I really think your cute."
Chapter 3 by shadow dude
Link had his arm around Zelda`s sholders and they glared at the two."They`re such an addorible couple.Dont you think Linkie-poo?"Zelda giggled.
"They do seem happey together.Maby, just maby, they might get together."
"Link, that would be so cute."

Later that night, once the ball ended, Dark left and went to a bar a fe blocks from his appartment.He walked down the few steps and sat at the bar next to a drunk couple making-out."Hey, Dark.Here for a beer?"The, buff bartender asked.
"Yeah, Dante, I`ll just take a beer."Dark sighed as the man handed him a bottle."Thanks."Dark couldnt get Malon out of his head."You went to the ball?"
"Yeah, Cat, loved her gift."
"I bet she did.Why ya look so glumy?"
"Nothing, it`s just, I`ve always felt like somthin' was missing in my life, until tonight."He said, the last part dreamily"Tell me, Dante, how do you know your in love?"
"Well, I heard that you cant stop thinkin of her, and every time ya see her, your unusualy happy."
"I cant stop getting her image out of my head.Every time I try to shake it out of my head, she comes back.When I danced with her, oh, Dante, I swear, I`ll never find a better girl.She`s kind, beutiful,"Dark sighed again"she`s perfect."
"Wow, she sounds perfect"Dark smirked at him"She is."

Dark plopped down on his bed and looked at cieling, still thinking of Malon.He had seen her father at the castle, just not her."Malon, I love that name."He gently shut his eyes.
Chapter 4 by shadow dude
Malon sat at the breakfeast table the next morning, and she was unusually, happy."Oh father, last night was just amazing"She sighed dreamily."Why, what happened?"
"I met some one spectacular.He seems so kind and sweet.I cant stop thinking about him father."
"Uh oh.Looks like you`ve been bit by the love bug."Talon smirked
"Father.He`s just so, so, so perfect."

Dark walked up the dirt path, leading to Lon Lon ranch.He entered the ranch and was about to knock on the door when he heard Malon and her father talking."He`s so perfect, father.I cant stop thinking about him."
"What`d you say this boy`s name was?"
"His name`s Dark."Dark gasped and stepped away from the door.A smile swept across his face"She likes me.She really likes me."He looked around and found a patch of flowers.He picked some and knocked on the door."Coming"Malon sang.The door opened and a wide smiling Malon looked at the colorful flowers in Dark`s hand"Are those for me?" "Yeah, I wanted to say hi on my way to the castle and saw some flowers I thought you`d like."Dark lied.Malon gracfuly took the flowers and put them in a vase."Well, I`d better go" "Wait.Are you in a hurry?" "N-no.Why?" "Come with me"She grabbed his wrist and dragged him into the corral.She sat down in the center and closed her eyes.The wind blew through her shinny hair as she began to sing.Dark sat down next to her, putting his legs strait out in front of him and his hands supporting him up behind him."I love to just come out here and sing to the horses.They seem to like it too." "I dont see why they wouldnt.Your singing is beutiful."Malon blushed a bit"Th-thank you."She sighed"I love the way the wind blows during autum.Acually, autum is my favorite season.You?" "Now that I think about it, fall is a great season.It`s not to cold or hot, for some odd reason, it smells good,"Malon giggled and his reply"It tastes good to"

Malon sighed."Hey, you wanna go horse back riding?"She opened her eyes"Sure.I`m not much a wrangler but sure."Malon smiled and jumped on a horse.Dark climbed on another, and they trotted off.Malon giggled and smiled at Dark, who returbed her friendly gesture.They rgalloped beside a long river and fish jumped up.Malon galloped in front of Dark and he caught up."Were to now?"He asked, excited
"Dont know"She srugged and winked at him."I guess were our hearts lead us."They passed the drawbridge heading into castle town, and the ground became harder and red.Malon`s horse suddenly stopped and went on his hine legs, making Malon fly off."Malon!"Dark jumped off his horse and cradled Malon in his arms."Malon, Malon are you okey.Talk to me Malon."
"D-Dark, w-what happend?"
"Your horse just threw you off.Are you okey?"
"Yes, I`m fine.What made him stop?"
"I dont know"Malon stood up, but fell back down"Here, I`ll take you home."He picked her up bridal style and carried her to her horse.
Once they arrived at the ranch, Talon had left to deliver some milk, and Ingo, well, no one really knows were he goes off to.Dark carried her inside and set her down in a chair.He knelt down and checked her ankel.It was a little swolen and a bit purple."You might have sprained it.Here, you just stay seated."he walked over to a cabnet and grabbed banages.He wrapped her foot up and sat down across from her."Does it hurt?"He asked, concerned
"It almost sounds as if your concerned for my health, Dark."Dark blushed.
"Well, I...ummm...I just, thought..."
"It`s okey.I wont push, but do you care?"
"Well, I do care.Because, well, you know, because."Malon giggled and kissed his cheek, making Dark`s face blood red"I`ve never seen a boy so red.You must like me."Dark seemed to turn redder, if that was possible."Well...I...ummm"He sighed"I`m not getting out of this am I?"Malon nodded
"Not a chance, Shadow."That name brought back so many memories"That name."

"What`s wrong with it?"Malon cocked her head in confusion."You said you were Link`s shadow."
"That I am, but it just brings back memories, good and bad."
"Oh sorry"
"It`s okey."
"You still haven`t answered my question.Do you like me or not?"
"Well, of corse.I mean who doesn`t"
"Dark that`s not what I mean.I mean, like like."
"Oh, well....Malon I....I...do like you.Your all I think about.I try to shake you out of my head but you just come back.I do like you Malon.A matter of fact, I think I might even....love you."Malon`s eyes lit up."Dark, I...I feel the same way.I love you."Dark smiled at her.Malon looked in his crimson eyes."Your eyes...there so, so unusualy...cute.And your hair it`s like, nothing I`ve ever seen.Your, just....just perfect."Malon explained.
"I love the way your hair shimmers in the light, and your eyes light up when I talk to you.It`s so adorible."Dark chuckled."I really do love you.I dont see how I could love you more.It was like love at first sight."
"Oh Dark"Malon cupped his face and brushed their lips together.The kiss lasted what felt like ten years.When they broke apart to catch their breath, Dark embraced her."I love you."
_______________________________________
Two years after, Dark and Malon were at Lake hilia, watching the sunset.It was low below death mountain."It`s beutiful."Malon sighed"Yeah, but not more beutiful than you."Malon playfully punched him in the sholder."Yeah, and the sun isn`t as hot as you." "Awwww, so cute."Dark giggled.He wrapped an arm around her and looked up at the orange sky.He looked down at Malon and kissed her forehead.Then Malon broke the silence."H-hey, Dark"Dark could tell she was blushing"Yeah?Are you okey?" "Yeah, yeah, I`m fine just had a random thought" "I`m all ears"She cleared her throat and began,"W-well, we`ve been together for two years, right?" "Right.Why?" "Well..."
Chapter 7 by shadow dude
"Well, what?"Dark asked curious
"Well, you love me, right"
"Of corse."She gulped
"I was...kinda...thinking...that maby...you know..."Dark caught on and looked qiuet shocked."You mean....you want to....you know...sleep together?"
"S-sure, I mean w-why not?"
"A-are you sure your ready?"
"Yes, Dark, I am.And I want you to be the one to take my virginity.Because I love you more than life itself."
"Okey, I`ll go easy on you, okey."
"Kay."Dark pulled her in to a kiss and he rubbed his tounge along Malon`s lips, signaling for her to open her mouth.He let his tounge explore her mouth.Dark, gently, reached his hand under Malon`s shirt, massaging her breasts.Malon moaned and tugged at his hair.Dark unbottoned her shirt and tossed it to the side along with her bra.Malon blushed a little.Dark sucked and nibbled on her nipples as they grew hard.Malon threw off Dark`s shirt ans ran her hand down his bare chest.Dark looked up at Malon, mentally asking her somthing.Malon nodded and took off her belt.He slid her jeans off and set them with the other clothes.He, slowly, slid her painties down her legs and kissed her again.Malon undid Dark`s belt and pants.She took his pants compleatly off and his boxers off.She stared at his throbbing hard on and bent down.She let it in her mouth and stroked it.She heard him moan and she sucked harder and faster."Oh, Malon, Malon, I love you"
Dark moaned.Malon kept sucking on his cock and soon she felt his warm juices flood in her mouth.Dark moaned again and looked at Malon who was smiling."A-are you sure?It`s not to late to back down."
"No, Dark, I`m sure."Dark sighed and smiled as he asked"Ready?After this, you will never be a virgin again.So are you sure you want to?"
"Yes, I`m sure."
"okey."He pointed his cock at Malon`s vagina and slowly enterd her body.Malon moaned as he slowly slid in and out."Oh, Dark, faster, faster!"She yelled.Dark obeyed and thrust in faster.She maoned and gasped"Oh, Dark, please faster!Please!"Dark obeyed.
Chapter 8 by shadow dude
Dark made his final thrust before orgasming again.He emptied his jices into Malon and pulled out, lying on the grass, bothe panting."Wow.Dark, that was....that was amazing."
"Really?"
"Yes"Malon smiled and rolled on top of him.She began kissing him.It was now dark.
_______________________________________
Dark dropped off Malon home and left for his apparment.He tossed his jacket and keys on his coffee table and kicked his shoes off.He pulled his pants off and shirt.He layed in bed and closed his eyes, still thinking of Malon.Then he thought, his hole life, he`d been living in the shadows, trying to figure out his meaning in life.Now he knew.It was to be with Malon.H sighed and fell asleep.
Chapter 9 by shadow dude
Dark woke up one morning to dark storm clouds outside his apparment.He sighed and dressed in his normal clothes.Black tee shirt, jeans, boots, and hat.He grabbed jacket and headed towrd the ranch."It`s problbly gonna rain today."He sighed again"Oh well."Once he became closer to the ranch he could see puffs of smoke and he heard Malon screme."Malon!"He ran to the entrance and rushed to the field were a cloaked feature held the uncoinsious Malon."Malon!You Basterd, let her go!"The man turned around and Dark froze when he saw his beaty yellow eyes"Ganondorf!What are you doing here?!"
"I`m here to recieve my vengence, Traitor.How could you abandon your creator."
"Your not my creater!I wasn`t really created by you!You just wanted the credit!"
"Shut up!You want your presious Malon back.Meet me at the water temple in your room."Ganon snapped his chubby fingers and disapeared.
Dark took one last breathe before opening the door leading to the dreadful room where Link had fought him.He walked in and saw Malon tied to the dead tree."Malon!" "No Dark!It`s a trap!"He didn`t care.He ran over to Malon and untied her.He held her in his arms and then relised, this was Ganondorf.He wouldn`t do this.He wouldn`t just tie her to a tree.He wouldn`t just give up that easily.Dark gently set Malon down in the ankel deep water and stood.He pulled out his sword and shield, causious of his surrondings."Ganon!I know your here!Show yourself, you cowardly basterd!" "Where`s the fun in that, Darkie." "Shut up!"Dark shouted at the emptiness"Ooh, I made the shadow mad now.I`m so scared, I`m trembling." "Ganon, if you touch Malon, I swear I will make sure you never touch anything again." "Oh, I`m gonna pee in my pants I`m so scared, HAHAHA!" "GANON!" "Fine, you wanna fight.I`ll give you one hell of a fight."Ganondorf apeared in front of Dark and chuckled."Your going to have a hard time defeating me with that knife." Dark lunged at Ganondorf, and the battle began.
Chapter 10 by shadow dude
Just after an hour or two of fiighting, Dark had gash after gash, scratch after scratch, bruise after bruise running down his sore body.He didn`t know how much he could take before Ganondorf whiped him out.Ganondorf shot dark magic at Dark and he flew back hitting the tree.Ganondorf chuckled in delight."Your never going to surrvive, boy.Just give up now and I might spare your life.Problibly not though."
"I....will never....give up...Ganon!"
"How do feel anyways?Your a shadow.Shadows don`t feel for a human."Dark didn`t respond.Really, he had no clue either.Ganondorf raised his palm and, once again, shot magic at him.Though this time, it was bigger and had more energy.It sent him back to the tree and he couldn`t take it anymore.Malon crawled over to him and cradled him in her arms."Dark, don`t leave me Dark.I love you.I love you!"She cried as Dark`s life slowly slipped away."M-Malon, I...I-I love you too.I love you....more than anything"Dark took one last breathe, and fell limp and lifless.Malon screamed and buried her face in his chest.Ganondorf chuckled, then laughed, but was intterupted by three woman who apeared in front of them."The goddesses?!" Ganondorf boomed."Ganondorf, you have taken the life of an innocent child of ours.You shall pay for your crime deeply.We, the goddesses of the land of hyrule, banish Ganondorf Dragmire, king of evil and gerudos, from any land garded by Hyrule.Be gone evil dweller!"Ganondorf turned to green, red, and blue dust and disapeared, leaving the triforce of power behind."G-Goddesses, please, I love Dark.I love him more than life itself.Please save him."
"Child, we normally can`t do this because he is a shadow, but he has pleadged to fight aganst evil instead of on evil`s side.We grant Dark Link of the Shadows to now hold the triforce of power!"The golden triangle floated over to Dark`s lifless body and sank into his cold skin.Dark`s body heat started coming back and his face didn`t look as pale.

Dark shot up and grasped Malon`s sholders."Malon."He mumbled.He wrapped his arms around her tightly in a loving embrace."Dark.Don`t ever leave me.Ever."
"I promise.Malon, I love you."
"I love you too, Dark."Dark looked in her eyes, and then placed his rough lips on her soft ones."Malon,"He gulped"I love you so so much.I`ve loved you ever since I first layed eyes on you at the ball.I never knew I could love until I saw you.Every time I have to leave to go home, I dread every second being away from you.What I`m trying to say is....is that, Malon, I want to see your smileing face next to me everyday, every second possible.Malon will you do the honnors of making me the happiest man in all of Hyrule and beyond?Will you marry me?"Malon`s face turned from worry to pure shock and happiness."Dark I, I don`t know what to say.I mean, I love you Dark, so, I would love to do the honnors of being your wife."Dark let out a breathe he had no clue he was holdng."That`s great.Thank you so much Malon.I can`t even describe how perfect this makes me feel."
"But, Dark."Her face had worry in it again.Dark frowned"What`s wrong, Malon?"She gulped and looked down."I-I`m pregnaught, Dark."Dark looked up at her."Really?"
"Yes.I found out before Ganon came.Luckily, he didn`t hurt the baby.Dark, do you still want to marry me?"
"What?Of course!Just because your pregnaught doesn`t change my feelings about you.I`ll love you for longer than eternity.Don`t you ever think I don`t love you."
