Sollux Captor

Diggs stared at him, before giving a small nod. "Yeah, I think I know what you're saying... as long as I don't have to be chained up again, then I'll let Dusk use my power when he needs to..."

The three of them followed after Freya, who had just finished talking to yet another soldier who was only alive for a little longer. He had offered a bell to them, since these bells were the only thing that would allow them to open the doors inside of the grotto so they would be able to get further through and sooner or later, reach Burmecia. When they opened the doors, however... they weren't expecting to see a bunch of Black Mages walking around, setting some of the Burmecian soldiers on fire, and the strange jesters from the palace wandering around on the bridge above them.

A nod came from Sheko as he nuzzled himself close against the other's shoulder. "I'm just glad you're okay, Shadow... and alive with me..."

Diggs stared at him, as he gently clutched his fingers against the grass. "Your the Umbra he is always talking about... will you two promise you'll find a way to give seperate bodies for me and Link? I don't really like the idea of being sealed away..."

A dark blush was on Shuichi's face as he looked up at the other's face. "Ryu... I... I like you too..."

The other made a noise as he found himself being kissed, as his cheeks burned a bit, before his eyes closed, pressing back into the kiss. He was being kissed by his role model and hero in his life... It was almost like a dream.

The pink haired male had a blush run across his face as the other leaned close, and gently licked him on the nose, now just realizing that ice cream had been there just a moment ago. "Ryuichi...?" He managed as he found the other's soft blue eyes were staring at him.

Shuichi could hear the other laughing at him, as he glanced over at him. "What I do?"

Dusk stared at him, the pools of water blue gleaming at the orbs of blood, before they closed. "Very well... make no mistake, I plan to get my own body, I'm not going to let my mother's actions cause me the life I want with my Umbra..." Hey... get up... A voice was slowly trying to draw the unconscious mind from his forced slumber, as the blue-green eyes was opening softly, finding the face that looked like his own in front of him, the blood eyes he remembered before the chains drew him into darkness shining underneath his hair. Y...You... wh... what's going on...? Be quiet... before I end up changing my mind... your Link wants to see you... so I'm going to release you. I'm a little pissed off that I have to give control back to you when I never got to spend any intimate time with Umbra, but it can't be helped... seeing as that stupid Master Sword woke his other persona back up... I'm... not sure I understand... but... Link wants to see me.... right...? ...Yeah... so wake up and see him before I change my mind... 'Diggs could hear the other grumbling about still not having alone time completely with this Umbra he kept mentioning, but said nothing, as their foreheads were pressed together, the darkness that had swallowed him before seeming to be replaced by a burst of white-yellow light... --- Midna was watching as she found the Twili's body had lost its balance for a moment, seeming to fall onto his butt, his hands pressed against the grass, as the eyes slowly opened once more, the blue-green orbs visible once more.

"I can tell. You're Link now, aren't you?" Dusk tilted his head into his palm, seeing the confused look in the blonde's eyes. "As it's clear to see, I'm not Diggs... I know you want to see him, am I right?"

"A lot more simple looking than I would have imagined... but it does give off a rather powerful presence , doesn't it?" Dusk stayed put as Umbra went over to use the sword as the princess had told him in order to return to his human form.

"I'm fine... let's just go get the sword, and leave..." He grumbled as they headed through the gate that the two guardians had been keeping them from at first. Midna sighed softly, seeing the trouble visible in the other's eyes. Neither Dusk or Diggs were good at hiding their emotions in their eyes.

The hedgefox gave a small nod, as he rested against him, being careful of the older's injuries. "Okay... I look forward to seeing you alright again, Shadow..."

--- It had been a few hours since they started travelling towards the Gizamaluke Grotto, and they ended up getting lost and ended up at a forest where they were able to find a Chocobo named Choco... how original. Thanks to the riding bird that had softened up to them, they were able to make it to the Grotto before it got dark to make up for the time that they had gotten lost... but they were greeted by an unpretty sight. Lying in front of the entrance of the Grotto they ended up finding the bodies of Burmecian soldiers. Freya immediately ran over to them, begging for them to either wake up or open their eyes as if they hadn't already passed on to the afterlife. "These black mages...! Who are they?!" Freya shouted, obviously looking upset. Vivi looked a bit uncomfortable, though Zidane assured him that this wasn't his fault. "Vivi, aren't they your---" She cut herself off with a gasp, "The king might be in danger! Let's go!" With that, she raced inside ahead of them.

Dusk was sitting against the stones, watching as his love was calculating exactly where he should jump in order to lead the statues back to the spot they were in before, as his gaze softened a bit. I think I know how you feel now, Diggs... even when you are with your love, you have to sit aside and watch cause the gods don't recognize you as the hero of the goddesses... maybe we have another thing in common other than who we are in love with...

"I love it too." The younger male replied, having a little smile visible, as he took another little bite of the ice cream.

"Exactly what kind of magic do you use, Quina?" Vivi looked over at him, seeming rather curious. OFF TOPIC: I'm going with him, cause him/her with every post is going to get annoying

Vivi had a soft blush from the 'eating' comment... he wasn't really sure why. "Mmmph..."

Vivi gave a small nod, as he felt the other gently brush their lips together. Freya gave a little cough. "I don't mean to interrupt... but we do have another member on the team now..."

Vivi glanced over his shoulder at him, as a sad sigh escaped him. He squeezed the other's hand, following close behind him.

"Grandpa looks a lot like you, Mr. Quale..." The two boys were left to sweatdrop as he replied that they were from the same tribe... didn't he just say he didn't know him? "You really don't know him?"

"That was defiantly strange..." Midna gave a shrug as she helped the two press onward through the grove in order to find what they were looking for.

"Grandpa Quan was a bit strange... so... how do you know him?"

Sheko gave a little twitch of his ears, as he smiled. "Of course, Shadow..." He hurried over to him, and crawled into the bed with him.

Dusk quickly pointed out Skull Kid's location everytime it changed, as he watched Umbra lunge forward, and pounced at the puppets as well as the strange boy. This is how it was supposed to be, Diggs...I was supposed to be in control of this body... and once we get rid of Zant and our father, we can say goodbye to this horrible place and live in the Twilight together... but don't worry, Umbra is kinder than I... he'll find a way to get a separate body for you and your little Link...
