Welcome to Gaia! ::

"DENJI!" Josline screamed when Benvolio played the song without her. Damn him, this was his little plan from the beginning! That b*****d! She ran to the ledge and dug her hands into the cliff wall, dragging herself upwards towards the ledge. Slipping a few times, she almost gave up, feeling tears in her eyes. Failure, it was never a feeling you wished to feel. However, Josline was a figure! And this was her temple, there was no way she was going to give up yet. Pulling the hood over her face she dragged herself up, feeling her leg almost giving up on her. However, she grabbed the bars of the fence, pulling herself over she rushed down the steps. DAMMIT! He had closed the door as she ran over and slammed her fists into it. She could hear them, their voices were not far off, not Denji but Benvolio's. She heard the traitor speaking to Denji, about to kill him. She heard the shadows, they were whispering to her and mocking her. Her tears moved down her face as she started to drag herself through the shadows. She blinked up at Benvolio. "YOU ******** IDIOT!" Josline shouted tackling him to the ground and slammed him into the ground. "THIS IS MY TERRITORY! I KNOW THE SHADOWS WAY MORE THAN YOU COULD EVER KNOW! b*****d!" She slammed his fist into his cheek, "TRAITOR!" another slam against his cheek. She grabbed him as her eyes were blood red and lifted him up to the wall. "You lay one hand on him and I swear, I SWEAR! This WILL be your tomb!" She snapped at him and slammed his sword hand into the ground and ripped it from him. She breathed hard and looked over at Denji, calming down slowly.

Josline slammed against the wall as she cried out in pain as she felt the bone almost snap. She fell to the ground, feeling her head spin from the pain, she looked up at Benvolio as she bit into her lip, what a b*****d. It might have thrown her back, but the blast of energy was still radiating from her chest, the blow had been absorbed straight into her. "Idiot... I told you... this is MY DOMAIN!" Josline said grabbing her chest as the energy was absorbed into her arm as she threw it straight back at him. She cringed under her knee as she stood there, however, she wouldn't go back on her promise. Even if it was for the protect against Twinrova... it was the protect for Denji too... she moved straight into the shadows vanishing from sight before he could react.

(Josline has full control of shadows, anything dark or shadow is totally ineffective towards her...)

"You're right... 'I' can't..." She murmured, however she knew one secret... a secret that he couldn't even figure out by first glance. Of course she couldn't she was mortal, first wound to the heart would kill her as she stood leaning against the wall. However... hundreds of clones could still stand to defend against Benvolio. Snickering when he said he was a 'warrior'. He wouldn't last a day against the figures... they were trained assassins, they could have taken him down before he even knew it was happening. "I'll let 'you' live." She said slipping out of the shadows. "Only if he lives..."

((wait, is this in the period of time where gannondorf has taken over Hyrule? If so, I need to edit or delete my last post.))

Korin woke with sunlight shimmering through the water of the moat. He'd over slept. It was passed morning and nearing the afternoon. Stretching, he yawned, making a muffled noise under the water. When he was done, he swam quickly to the surface and shot into the air, backflipping and landing on the broken bridge. Reaching in his bag, he pulled out a cloak made from wide leaves that he made in the Lost Woods. Wrapping himself in it and stowing his belongings descreetly below it. He pulled the hood low so that no Hylians would recognize he was a Zora.

Walking passed the large walls, he immediatley saw that things were wrong in Hyrule. Darkness surrounded the castle in the distance. The buildings in the square were in shambles. And the inhabitants had been replaced with... monsters. They didn't look dangerous, but after living in the wild for so long, Korin's animal instincts screamed for his retreat. Korin stuck to the shadows and entered the nearest door he could find.

The room was dimly lit. Only a few torches burned against the walls. At the end of the room was what appeared to be a market stand. It was watched over by a small, strange figure in a cloak. The cage above had ghosts that seemed to drift in and out of focuss. With all this strangeness, the last think Korin was worried about was his annonymity. He lowered his hood and approached. "Hello, my name is-"

"Payment first. Then I'll tell you about the stone." Korin stared at the hooded figure in shock. Had the mysteryous salesperson read his mind? Could they see the future? The cloaked figure simply cackled, waiting for payment.

"How much gold?" The figured just cackled again.

"No gold. Bring me ghosts." Korin stared blankly.

"Where do I find ghosts? How do I catch them?" The salesperson threw a jar at Korin's head. He caught it with lightening reflexes.

"Catch with that. I don't care where."

"But I-" The cloaked figure brought a stick around with a speed unexpected and wacked him on the head.

"Ghosts. Then talk." Korin rubbed his head in indignation before leaving the room to search for ghosts. The nerve! Even if he was exiled, Korin was still a prince. He deserved more respect than that.

((You can ignore my portion of the plot for now. My story line is running seperate from theirs at the moment.))

Benvolio looked at the girl. He didnt care. He started walking into the heart of the dungeon. He couldn't kill the monster deep inside but he could hold it's wrath for a while. "He can live. I'm forbidden to kill the hero of time anyway. It's not worth eternity in the sacred realm." He said before unsheathing his sword and opening a small portal through the shadows.
