JDizzle was just getting home from work. The day had been a killer on him. First, he got told he wasn't getting that pay raise, then his girlfriend just... he didn't want to think about it. Picking up his Wii U, he sighed. "Well, at least video games never change. Maybe a little pixelated mind numbing gamage will make me forget life for a while."<br/><br/>Turning the system on, he went through the menu and selected The Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess HD, scrolling to his save file, which was at the point right before the light spirit Lanayru showed Link the vision with the shadowy versions of himself. The cutscene played up to the point where Shadow Link showed up, but instead of creating the Fuzed Shadows like normal, he smirked and snapped, the screen going black.<br/><br/>JDizzle was concerned for a moment as he stared at the screen, which suddenly flickered and text appeared on the screen.<br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic">~Do you want me to help you fix this world?~</span><br/><br/>JDizzle read the text a few times over. "What the heck? Who puts tech support in a video game?" he asked himself, unaware of what the true nature of those words meant. pressing the "A" button, the text disappeared and a small fairy replaced it. "Follow me!" it said in a voice that reminded JD of Navi but sounded a bit more masculine.<br/><br/>Now, JD would have been concerned about his system's integrity, but he had never been the smartest guy when it came to impulsive decisions. Putting the controller down he walked over to the TV and tapped on the glass. Or he would have tapped on it if it didn't bend like jello. "What the- What's going on?" he asked. the fairy simply exited the screen quite literally, and the gelatinous screen went back to being hard glass. "Out here!" the fairy squeaked as it flew outside an open window. JD ran after it, unaware until he was outside that he was no longer in the city. looking around, he saw a trio of Shadowy figures smirk as they ran up to him and the center one reached out and as it touched JD's shoulder, he blacked out.<br/><br/>"Ugh... what happened?" JD said groggily as he sat up and rubbed his head. His eyes widened as he noticed his skin was an ashen grayish color. They widened further as he saw the gear at his feet and the fairy from earlier bumping his head. "Oww... hey, quit it!" he murmured, annoyed. "Sorry... but you weren't waking up!" the small blue ball of light squeaked.<br/><br/>"And whose damn fault is that?" He asked. "And for that matter what happened to me?"<br/><br/>"You said you'd help me fix this world! You promised!" The fairy said, conveniently dodging the question. JD sighed, "Let me guess. You weren't talking about the game?"<br/><br/>"What... game?" the fairy asked slowly. JD sighed.<span style="font-style: italic">~Might as well just go along with it.~</span><br/><br/>"So Where do we need to go?" he asked, standing up and stretching.<br/><br/>"GO TO HELL YOU BASTARD!" He heard a yell from behind him. Turning he raised his newly acquired Hylian Shield on reflex as a knife bounced harmlessly off of it. lowering the shield, he smiled, which just made him look malevolent due to the current body he was inhabiting. "Kallen? Kallen Kozuki? This is... unexpected."<br/><br/>"How do you know my name? You shadowy bastards have been attacking me ever since I was conscious!" She shouted angrily.<br/><br/>"I have?" JD/Shadow Link asked confused. JD noticed that Shadow Link had a slight echoing undertone to his voice.<span style="font-style: italic">~Great...now I'm always going to sound evil.</span>He thought. Kallen frowned as a horde of shadowy figures surrounded the two. JD recognized them as Heartless from Kingdom Hearts.<br/><br/>"Not the way I wanted to start my day. Eh, what the hell! FOR HYRULE!" JD shouted as he began running around madly cuting their numbers down.<br/><br/>Kallen looked to the fairy. "Is he with you?"<br/><br/>The fairy jingled a "yep. Shadow's the best warrior I could find to help us!"<br/><br/>Kallen shrugged and attacked the Heartless as well, their numbers eventually getting manageable. JD smirked as he realized that if he indeed had the powers he knew Shadow Link possessed, he could end this fight quite quickly. he reached into a pouch at his hip and withdrew a Hylian bomb. "Kallen! get ready to find cover!" he shouted. Throwing the bomb into the midst of the remaining heartless, he jumped behind a small boulder as it exploded, taking out the remaining horde.<br/><br/>"So you aren't one of them?" Kallen asked as she dusted off her clothing. Shadow Link shook his head. "Nope. So where're you from?"<br/><br/>"I...I don't know... I was just here about twenty minutes ago..." Kallen answered him.<br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic">~"Wierd... better not press the issue..."~</span>JD thought. "We should probably find a place to stay. you! fairy! Where can we go to get a meal and a bed?"<br/><br/>"I have a name you know!" The fairy pouted. "It's Ivan! and I am not a fairy. I'm a Shadow Fae!"<br/><br/>JD shrugged. Figures he would be a dark version of fairies... following someone from the dark mirror kinda guaranteed that. "Alright, Ivan, can you tell us where to go?" he resigned. Ivan jingled and bobbed up and down, "This way!" and he took off.
