Red woke up to see the moonlight filtering in above him in the pitch darkness as stars gleamed like tiny holes in a box. He could hear his siblings snoring deeper in the house and stretched. He wonder vaguely what woke him, maybe the cool draft slowly swirling into his room? No. Tilting his head he pondered.

Are those eyes outside?? Red noticed, alarm spiking through his veins. He shot out of bed and crept downstairs. Weaving his way past the stuffed animals on his floor. He quietly went to grab his fire rod. But first he wanted to check and make sure his siblings were okay.

He passed Green’s room first, peeking his head in he saw Green lay sprawled on his bed. His face was buried into his pillows as he snored quietly. Red smiled softly at the sight. His room was messy as always, clothes and other various objects thrown across. Blue would be furious seeing anyone’s room like this.

Blue was next as Red checked her room. She was all bundled in blankets, clearly not happy with the cold wind of the night. Her clothes were neatly folded and hanging in the closet. Her floor was clean, void of any clutter that Green or Red had.

Finally Red went to check on Vio. Glancing inside the clutter of papers was present as always. Some where across their purple desk and some had fluttered towards the floor. Their curtains were tightly drawn casting barely any light into the room. Red had to squint his eyes to see Vio’s form on their bed.

Good, their asleep. Red smiled, happy that Vio was actually sleeping. But for how long?

Vio was curled tightly, taking very shallow breathes as if they were suffocating. They twitched occasionally and made small wimpers as Red frowned worriedly at them.

I think Vio is having a nightmare… Red though frowning at his brother. Once I check on those weird eyes I’m going to come and help you. I swear!

Red quietly went downstairs, treading carefully intothe darkened kichen, quietly snagging his fire rod, sword, sheild and even some armor, he opened the door and closed it quietly. Stepping out side, he glanced around holding the fire rod out for light. He heard something shuffling behind him and he drew his sword.

“Wh.. who is there?!” He spoke into the quiet night, fear betrayed by his expression.

A shadow of darkness appeared behind him. Its red eyes glowed in the sparkling moonlight.

Red squinted, blinking rapidly and his sword hand shaking slightly. “Sh.. Shadow? Is that you?! What happened to you?” Red asked, putting his sword down once he recognize Shadow’s form.

Shadow’s right eye was almost entirely red with the exception of a pupil, becoming a white dot in his eyes. A huge gash dripped black.. ooze? It dripped into the grass, leaving behind what looked like ink stains. His left eye looked… partly normal. The edges were red and were fading into his eyes, trying to close into his pupil and capture it in a sea of red. Black ink flowed from his right eye and some started to drip from his left eye. As if black stained tears were cascading down.

“Where are the others? I.. I need to tell you guys something.. before…” Shadow looked around desperately, searching as if he was being hunted.

“I can wake them up, come on. You shouldn’t be standing in the cold night!” Red smiled nervously, catching the urgency from Shadow.

They both crept back into the house and Red set his sword and sheild down, gently placing the small amount of armor he had on and went to wake the others. He started with Vio, hoping to jerk them from their nightmare first.

“Hey Vio? Wake up.” Red walked over to his brother who was still laying on his bed. After a couple of tries, Vio’s eyes snapped open and they grabbed the nearest thing, (which turned out to be Red), and hung on for dear life.

“Hey, Vio its okay its okay.” Red hugged them. “Shhh its okay.”

Vio blinked at Red, and let go slowly, rubbing their eyes as they woke up.

“Red? Why are you in my room at this time? Whats going on?”

Red smiled. “Its Shadow, he’s back… but something is wrong. Can you wake up Green? I need to wake up Blue.”

Vio nodded slowly. “Yeah… I can.”

Red nodded and stood back up, gently helping his brother up. Vio stood and stretched and went to wake up Green, grateful that he got the more agreeable brother.

Now to wake up Blue. Red thought. Waking up the beast is never a good idea… I wonder what happened on the mission that would make Shadow so frazzled..

Red knew Shadow had been sent on a mission by Zelda to look at recent monsters that had been popping up. These monsters were much stronger then the regular ones and had black blood. Shadow had been gone for a couple of days, way more than he should have been while on a scout mission.

Red came to Blue’s room and opened her door.

“Hey, Blue. Wake up please.” Red spoke, aiming his eyes towards the clutter of blankets nestled on the bed.

Unlike Vio, Blue instantly woke up and stared at Red. Hopping out of her bed, she gently picked off the blankets that clung to her and then she stared at Red.

“Whats up?” She asked, moving to get changed.

Red turned around knowing Blue didn’t like having people watch her change.

“Shadows back.” Red replied. “He’s back from his mission but something is wrong. He looks different and they were panicking.”

Blue didn’t say anything, only the shuffling of her getting dressed quicker indicated that she heard.

“Okay, lets go down.” Blue said. Walking past Red towards the door. “Is everyone else awake?” She asked as Red followed her.

“I sent Vio to wake Green, I don’t know if they were awake enough though…” Red murmered

“Well if they aren’t down there, I can go and wake Green up.”

“Oh goddess no. The last time you used swords to make a loud noise and woke the entire house!” Red groaned.

“Well I mean if everyone needs to be up anyways, I see nothing wrong.” Blue shrugged.

They finished the last step and rushed into the living room to see Green sitting on the couch and Vio leaning against the wall between the living room and kichen. They were both looking at Shadow’s new design as he anxiously paced the room. In the few minutes Red was gone, he noticed that more of Shadow’s left eye was more red and it almost completely surrounded an almost white pupil. As Blue and Red hurried into the room, Vio looked at them and Green turned his head confused. Still trying to blink away sleep from his head.

Shadow also looked up. “Oh good. You guys are all here. You need to listen those monsters aren’t natural.. there was something, someone I didn’t recognize and they.. I don’t know did something and they made those monsters. They can do it to hylians I think they can and I only ha-”

“Slow down Shadow, I can barely understand you.” Green pointed out.

“I only have so much time… there was.. someone making the black blooded monsters… I think… I think they are the cause of the monster outbreaks.”

A sharp intake went around the room.

“What did they look like?” Blue asked, her eyes narrowing.

“Well, they wore black clothing. Much like me but much taller. Their eyes were fully black with small red pupiles… thats.. thats all I remember before I passed out.” Shadow shook his head. Blinking wildly.

“I need to leave!” He suddenly shouted, rushing through the door and closing it with a slam as he ran outside.

Red reacted instantly, being the closest to the door, he followed Shadow behind. He could also hear cries of his brothers as they chased Shadow.

Shadow ran into the nearby forest and Red followed, his eyes never leaving Shadow’s form as he raced through the moonlit forest. Red could hear minish racing through the trees also. Branches slapped his face and left stinging wounds at his speeds.

Shadow stopped in a forest clearing and looked at Red in sadness. Red looked for his brothers but couldn’t see them behind him. All that was there was trees that surrounded them and encased them in an arena.

Shadow looked so… sad, his eyes completely red surrounding a white pupils.

“I’m so.. so sorry Red… I can’t… help. Its… Its got me..” He collasped and cried into the night.

Red rushed forward to hug him, and something changed with Shadow. He could distantly hear yelling of his brothers and crackling of twigs.

Shadow grew more… animalistic. Straighting his back and arching his spine, he hissed and it sounded. Strange per say. By this time though, Red already had his arms wrapped around Shadow and he felt a piercing strike along his back. It felt like several, sharpened claws were simultaneously tearing out flesh from under his tunic. He yelped as Shadow shoved him away and hissed in an unlike Shadow fashion. He heard his brother closer but he couldn’t take his eyes off of Shadow, or whatever Shadow became.

“Red! There you are! Wha- Shadow?” Green called out, gently putting a hand on Red’s shoulder.

Red blinked and noticed all of his brothers were standing nearby looking at Shadow worriedly.

“Shadow? Whats wrong?” Green took a step but Red blurted out: “Don’t go near him!”

Green blinked and obeyed, stepping back and keeping a distance.

“What.. what do you think is wrong?” Vio wondered, his hands twitching for a bow he didn’t have.

Red shrugged, the pain in his back stung, and shook his head. “I don’t know. Its like he’s become a different creature even!”

Shadow hissed again in that unnatural sound and vanished, no puff of smoke and no lingering shadows like he usually world leave. He just left nothing.

They all stared in silence before chaos broke loose.

Blue swore. “Shadow come back here!! Where are you?!”

Green whipped out his sword, the only one who brought his weapon out. He observed the area and kept close eyes out.

Red was just blankly staring at where Shadow once stood.

Vio however noticed something odd. Something inky black was dripping from Red’s back. But he blinked and saw nothing as if it was never there. Maybe he was hallucinating.

Shadow stood, in the trees watching his brothers yell and stare around. He sighed quietly as he watched them. Narrowing his eyes, he could spot Red’s injured back, barely. He moved his claws into sight and grimaced at the red, stickly blood that clung to them.

“Well, I thought I would find you here.” A voice called out behind him.

Shadow twisted around hissing and ready to attack. A spectator in his own body.

The dark appeared and stared sadly. “You couldn’t warn them?”

Shadow shook his head. “I did something worse. I panicked, I couldn’t control myself… and I got Red. I’m so.. sorry.. that voice is so… loud.”

The dark frowned. “Well, I guess that leaves plan H, huh? I really would rather not use my powers that extensively…”

Shadow sighed and frustration and sadness. He could feel that aching feeling of drawing blood. That unnatural thrill that wasn’t him and the chills that he couldn’t control. That voice urging him to kill his kin, his brothers. The people who stood by him and helped him.

“You did wonderfully my friend. Amazing job. Perhaps I should enlist you instead of those… unuseful idiots as my hands and my king. Well I say you have definitely earned my left hand’s servent role.”

That voice that whispered promises into his ear. Unknowing of the betrayal that sat at their hearts.

Maybe I will continue this if enough people like it.
