Black stroked his fingers through Envy's wet hair. "Just relax." He said calmly as they floated further out into the lake. "I'm not going to let you go at all. But if you don't feel safe, then wrap your legs around my waist." He said as they neared a small little island toward the back of Lake Hylia.

Before long, Assis had the horse under his charm, calm and trusting of his intentions. He had stopped humming as he began to pat the horse on the back. Good, this would probably get him to Castle Town before midnight. Although, there was one more detail he had to cover before he could leave. Assis needed a shirt before he could go trotting up to the remnants of Hyrule's largest city. Even if they were just remnants, they were still crawling with dark forces, and Assis had to at least appear as if he were not against them. After all, in times like these, criminals were the ones living in the highest of luxuries.
- The house nearby was empty and dark, not a sound coming from inside. Assis left the horse with one last rub on the back before approaching the nearest window to peer inside. He could not see anyone, but still, if they were simply out of sight, then his intrusion would cause a raucus that would draw Black to him. This was something he could not risk. So, sure to keep the house between himself and Black, who was sitting at the edge of the water more toward the fishing grotto, Assis spied into the house through each window around that side of the house.
- The owner of the house was standing in front of a hearth, cooking what appeared to be three large fish. Assis sighed nervously. How could he obtain some kind of garment to wear when he could not take it for himself? He knew no other way.
- Assis knocked on the door, casual as ever, before pressing his back against the wall next to the door. He listened carefully as the sound of a blade sliding across a table reverberated through the crack under the door to pierce his ears. Following that sound were heavy footsteps slowly approaching the door. Finally, the door opened, and the heavy-set fisherman.....was nowhere to be seen. Assis was waiting for the man's large head to poke through the doorway, but nothing came. Perhaps the fisherman was standing further back inside?
- A couple moments later, the door began to shut, not a hint of the fisherman's head. This was going to take more drastic measures. Kick the door in? No.....
- Without warning, Assis jumped out in front of the doorway, his face twisted into an akward smile. He had been holding a throwing knife behind his back, which was now being slipped back into one of the loops in his belt.
- The fisherman simply widened his eyes in surprise at the man's actions. He could tell Assis was an outsider from the dark complexion of his skin. But the fact that he had no shirt, and that he had suddenly leapt out into the open after hiding beside the door the way he had, gave the fisherman no reason to shower Assis in his undivided trust. Instead, he tightened his grip on the handle of the large cleaver in his left hand.
"Hey, what'cho doin'!? You some kinda theif thar, boy?"
Assis' hands had begun to shake nervously. He had never done anything like this before. It was always a knife to their throat, "Gimme what I want, and I'll let you live!" Talking wasn't so much his department of expertise. He simply held his hands flat against his sides, offering a quick bow as he forced himself to keep the smile wide on his face.
"Who, me? HAHAHAHAHA!"
He was begining to sweat, now. He really didn't know what to say, and his laugh was loud and obnoxious.
"I'm just a lone, shirt-less traveler, looking for a helping hand, is all!"
Honest..... perhaps a bit too honest.
The man simply frowned, raising the over-sized blade to rest on his shoulder. It had dried blood stains on it, along with some other dried fluid. What was he using it for? The blade was far too big to use on just fish.
"Hmph.... 'n' why should I trust ya? Ya look like some kinda pirate t'me."
The fisherman held the cleaver out in front of him, pointed directly at Assis. He could tell there wasn't something right about this. And, he was right. Assis' was completely out of character. But, he was trying to do this without having to make any threats, or spill any blood. He didn't need any more attention than he'd already brought upon his self.
"You Gerudo, boy?"

Envy ears twitched, feelings her legs wrap around Black waist and holding onto him. She didn't like the water, and she knew the Black must be enjoying holding Envy so close. But Envy didn't care, she wanted to get out the water as soon as possible. Tears were making their way down her face. "Please, let's just get out of the water, please." Envy sobbed silently into Black's shoulder.

Black shook his head. "Hold on. We'll be on land soon enough." He said as they drifted nearer and nearer to the small little island in the middle of the lake. Once they got close enough, Black crawled onto the platform, which was harder to do since Envy was holding him so tightly, and rolled over a bit. "We're on land now, so you can get off, if you want." Black explained, though, he wouldn't mind too much if Envy continued to hold on to him. He had said they were on land, and he wasn't lying, but it probably wasn't the land Envy wanted. It was just a small, square platform in toward the back of the lake that stood there like an island.

Envy blinked looking up at Black, untangling her legs from Black's waist, but she kept her arms around Black's neck looking around. She didn't want to move encase she fell into the water again. "Please, don't do that again..." She murmured, her face looked practically terrified.

Black smiled gently at Envy. "Sorry about that. I just wanted to bring you here so we could watch the sunset, alone." He explained as he looked up at the sun. "It's quite beautiful from this spot. And, don't worry, I won't force you to swim, with me back to shore." He added as he wrapped his arms around her and kissed her.

Envy looked up at the sunset. She leaned against Black feeling his lips against hers. She felt herself shivering violently from being wet, and cuddled up to Black for his warmth.

Black felt Envy cuddle up close to him. "Hmm... We'll need a change of clothes soon..." He muttered under his breath. "But you have to admit, Envy, this is a lot more fun that being up in the clouds the whole time. There isn't even any water up there." Black explained, holding Envy tight to try and keep her warm.

Tenser almost smiled into the kiss, then felt an odd, hot wind. He almost dismissed it, thinking it was just from him and Eva, but it slowly grew stronger. He slowly pulled away from Eva to see a sandstorm right behind him, which engulfed him an instant later, burying him underneath. Just before he was buried, he called out to Eva, losing his grip on her, like it was his lifeline and the only thing tying them together was their voices. Darkness blacked out his vision, but he wasn't sure if it was from being buried or something else...
(I finally got a post that isn't less than three sentences!!!)

Envy was still shivering, but less violently than before. She kept her face against Black's chest. "I-I g-guess y-you're r-right." She gasped looking at Black, a small smile on her face.
"TENSER!" Eva shouted but they were both lost by the storm, she was pushed back and covered herself in a forcefield. Once the storm passed over, seeing the sand burying over the ground. "Tenser? Tenser?!" She shouted, looking around desperately.

Black smiled back at Envy. "Should I take us back up to Sky World so we can dry off and change clothes? Sunset won't happen for a while, so we have time." He suggested. Apparently, the cold dampness of his clothes was getting to him as well.

Envy nodded, "No sky diving though, I'd rather not go through the experience again..." Envy murmured, still shivering through Black's warmth, burying her head in his chest. She wished she would stop shaking.

Black chuckled a bit. "Alright alright." He slowly stood up and summoned the clouds back down, holding Envy close. "Just bare with the cold for a little longer." Soon, the clouds engulfed the two and transported them back up to Sky World. "Alright, follow me. I know of someone who can dry us off." He said as Leena was walking by. "Well, speak of the devil." Black thought as he flagged her down. "Hey! Leena! Think you could dry us off a bit? We kind of went swiming."
Leena blinked as she looked at them, then sighed and shook her head. "You and White are always so reckless." She muttered as she sumoned a whirlwind of flames to dry them off quickly. "There, is that better?" She asked, mostly directing the question towards Envy. She knew Black was perfectly fine, but Envy seemed to have been shivering a lot.

Vaati smirked, and suddenly the door slammed shut and the windows made a loud bang as they closed. "We could use someone like you... someone who touch the hero while we can't." His smirk continued as he grabbed her hair and forced her down while he gripped her wrist with his free hand. The hand that gripped her turned black.
((Not Link action right now... D: ))

Tenser slowly gain consciousness, but he couldn't open his eyes. He felt sand trying to seep through the cracks in his lips, his eyelids, and other areas that will leave very embarrassing itches until he can wash himself. If he got out.
In truth, even if he wanted to, he couldn't open his mouth if he wanted to breathe, the weight on him pushing what little air was in his lungs, but even that air was useless now, full of extra water vapors and carbon dioxide. He tried to move his arms, but it was like his whole body, every centimeter, was bound by metal. The sand shifted slightly, but the movement only made him use up energy he got from the oxygen he had within him to burn the sugar inside him. The more he moved, the faster death would come. But even then, the clock was ticking as he needed air soon. Eva should be nearby, so with all his might he pushed against the sand around him, but even though he moved some, more sand from above it took its place. It was curse and a blessing, even though Tenser's work of getting him out was being thwarted, the moved sand would soon outline his form. He hoped Eva could find him in time...
