The Wolf Takes Over.

Link opened his eyes slowly, hoping that the events of the night wasn't just a dream. But when he felt Midna's body moving her head he smiled in relief.

Thank the goddesses it wasn't a dream.

For several minutes, Link just looked down on Midna as she slept peacefully in his arms. It was strange, that she could sleep so soundly when she was imprisoned. Maybe it had something to do with him being here with her in the prison?

Midna stirred and opened her beautiful eyes to gaze into Link's warm, blue wolf eyes.

"Good morning..." She whispered with a small smile.

"Good morning, Midna! Did you sleep well?" Link wondered and Midna nodded into his chest.

"I feel safe when you are here, so yes I slept well! You?"

Link grinned, showing of his big white fangs. Midna had changed since they last met, no more annoying sarcasm! The wolf would have laughed if he didn't realise that Midna had asked him something.

"I did get some sleep, actually. I have not been able to sleep for several days, so it felt heavenly!"

The Twili smiled warmly and the Werewolf returned it with another grin.

For several minutes they remained in that position, staring into eachother's eyes.

"Maybe we should try to find a way out of here?" Link suggested finally, Midna nodded and sat up.

"Yes, you are right! But I've tried to break out of here for as long as I've been here, but those bars are made of something magical. Hell, this entire cell must be made of magic! I can't even use my powers so there must be something that stops magic from being used in here!" She exclaimed and rammed her fist into the floor, wincing in pain as it made contact with the rock floor.

"Damn!" Link snarled angrily.

"But of course, we could always try to bend the bars..."

"And how do you suppose we do that?" Link replied dumbly, Midna smacked the side of his head.

"Not we, you! You are a Werewolf, and from what I have heard they are very strong!" She said.

"Well, I need food if I am to bend those bars. Can't work on an empty stomach!"

Link's stomach rumbled as if to confirm the Werewolf's words, Midna let out a small giggle while Link smiled nervously.

"You don't have to worry, but the food is absolutely disgusting!" Midna assured him and grimaced.

Some minutes later, the cell door screeched as one of the guards dragged himself into the small cell.

The guard looked a lot like a Twili, though he was red and purple coloured instead of the the normal green and black. And he wore a large suit of copper armor, plus holding two medium sized bowls in his hands. Filled with something that looked like rotten oatmeal.

Without a word, the guard dropped the bowl on the floor and exited the cell and slamming the door as hard as he could behind him.

"Was that...?" Link trailed of.

"Yes, that used to be a Twili. But Shadow Link turned him and many others into Shadow Twili, he didn't do it to me because it would be much more of a torture if I saw my own people turn against me. Sadistic bastard!" Midna growled with hate in her voice.

Link nuzzled his nose into her cheek to try and calm her down, Midna burst into tears and leaned her head on Link's shoulder while he continued to nuzzle her cheek.

"Why does everything happen to us, Link? Why does every villain seem to love to make us miserable!?" The Twilight Princess screamed into the thick fur.

Link opened his mouth to speak, but closed it again when he realised that it was better if he didn't say anything.

Midna's sadness tore at Link's heart as a monster, making him as sad and angry as Midna was.

But he couldn't show weakness, because then Midna would probably become even more sad. Finally he decided to speak.

"Dear Midna, you can not help that everyone who likes to create trouble target you. But what you can help is to try and remain strong in times of sadness! This is not the Midna I know and love, the Midna I love is someone who makes the villains pay for making her angry and is always strong no matter what!" Link ignored that he had just said that he love her outloud, it was better to have it said than let it remain beneath the surface.

Midna sniffed and looked into the clear blue eyes of the Werewolf named Link, and managed to stutter out: "Y-you l-love me?"

Link nodded with sincerity etched into his eyes, Midna's face broke into a big smile and she hugged him so hard he had problems to breathe. And not to mention the lovely lips that was pressed against his snout.

"Oh Link, I can't understand fully why I ever broke that mirror! I could almost feel what you felt towards me on the road back to the Mirror chamber, but as stubborn as I was I chose not to talk to you about it!" Midna said with tears of joy streaming down her cheeks.

"You know, you've made me ten times the man by responding to my love! Let us hurry to try and get out of here!" Link replied with a warm smile, he broke away from her and crawled over to the bars.

He gripped the cold metal and then snarled as he began to pull. A metallic sound was heard as the bars was bent towards him, to finally crack and create a small escape way.

"Amazing, but I am too big to be able to get through that hole... but not you, Midna. I'll bend back the bars for now so that they don't realise that we are trying to get out of here! When does the guards patrol this place?" Link asked.

"Late at night and early in the morning there comes a guard to make sure those who sit in this corridor with us, doesn't do anything stupid!" The Twili answered.

"The next time the guard comes I will bend the bars again and you will slip out and try to pickpocket his key. You then come and open the cell door so we can get out!" Link's plan seemed good enough and Midna nodded.

And so they waited, and waited and waited. The minutes felt like long hours and the seconds like minutes, but finally the door on the far end of the corridor opened as a guard dragged himself into the prizoners' sight.

His heavy footfalls made Link's sensitive ears hurt slightly and not mention that sharp sound the former Twili's copper boots made when they was rubbed against the cold stone floor.

"Shut up, ya old pigs!" He yelled and kicked the bars to one of the cells who had screamed for release.

Finally the guard passes Midna and Link's cell and Link quickly bent the bars and let Midna slip out of the gap.

The Twilight Princess sneaked up on the guard and with skilled and quick fingers stole the keys that hung from the guards belt.

The guard didn't notice anything and Midna returned to Link and opened the cell door.

Link let a wolfish grin appear on his face as he exited the cell and then when he was out of it, he rose to hind legs and revealed his true lenght.

The ten feet tall Werewolf walked over to the guard with the grin intact, before grabbing his skull and crushing it with one clawed hand.

"Eww, I hope you'll do that with Shadow Link's head too!" Midna commented with a smile, Link let the Twilight Princess crawl up on his back as he too smiled.

Then Link and Midna were off.

"There it is! The way out of this place!" Midna yelled and pointed to the portal in front of them.

But just when they were about to leap through it, a shadow jumped into their path and rammed the hilt of his sword into Link's forehead.

Midna flew of her rescuer as Link crashed into the ground with a painful whine. She crawled over to him and stroked his head.

"Ganondorf's master always said you would be easy to trick. That's right, I tricked you into escaping that rathole. And too make things much easier I put the dumbest guard to patrol the 'prizon'." Shadow Link laughed.

"But why would you want us to try and escape?" Midna asked.

"My master said that you were going to be killed anyway, so why not speed things up a bit? Well, he said that I was going to fight my reflection and if he won you two would be allowed to leave... but we all know who is going to lose!" The shadow replied with a smirk.

"And if Link actually did win then I have to do something first, a little thing our puppet Zant couldn't do!"

"What is that?" Midna wondered, she was beginning to get scared.

"Werewolfes aren't supposed to be able to control their actions!" Shadow Link yelled and a red ball of light exited the palm of his hand and entered Link's body.

The Werewolf howled in pain as he flew up on his legs, his eyes began to lose their blue colour and taking an amber colour instead.

"Midna... find Zelda... run!" Link managed to growl before letting loose another howl.

Midna nodded with tears running down her cheeks and ran towards the portal.

"Oh no, you don't!" Shadow Link bellowed and was about to run after her, when he was tackled by a heavy Werewolf.

The shadow looked into the amber predator eyes and what he saw there would be the last things he ever saw.

Rage and hunger.

Shadow Link let loose a scream as Link bit into his throat with his sharp fangs, while Midna disappeared out of the portal with a sorrowful expression on her beautiful face.

The wolf had taken over.
