Summary
Shadow stared out in front of him from where he lie on the floor, at the chain connecting his collar to the wall. The light magic that was imbued in the collar wreaked havoc on his body. He was so exhausted. However, he was in too much pain to sleep. The headache, the feeling of the light choking his throat, and all over he felt wave after wave of pain as the light magic pulsed throughout his body. All he could do was lie there and wait, he didn’t even have the energy left to move anymore.

Summary
Twilight cleared his throat to make sure he didn’t spook his brightly colored doppelganger. “What I’m wonderin’ is why do you think the guy you’ve got up a tree back there is a dark but I’m not.”
The air was calm except for the occasional creak of branches and rope from the still-bound shadow. Slowly, with eyes full of open curiosity, Goldie turned to look at where Twilight was leaning. He gave him an appraising once-over. Then a hum.
“You haven’t attacked me yet, I suppose.”

Love That Transcends Time by lulimation

Summary
At the end of their adventure, the four heroes of the Four Sword must become one yet again. Unexpectedly, though their bodies became one, their minds remained separate. With sadness in their hearts over Shadow's sacrifice, they (primarily Vio) research ways to bring him back. They manage to bring him back, and they live a normal life together for awhile. That is until a portal brings them on another adventure with many other "Links" from across time.
It was very concerning for the colors when suddenly, while walking with the chain, Shadow states, "something's wrong." before disappearing from their now shared body. It was even more concerning for the rest of the chain when Four collapsed to the ground a moment later, completely unresponsive.
Where Shadow ended up though was definitely not what anyone could have expected. He appeared in a group of people who all claimed they were in a romantic relationship with a Link. Now, with no other known objectives, they have to search for the chain as they continue traveling through different portals across time.

Summary
Having completed the many many many shrines, Link was told to go and claim his reward. What happens if it wouldn't come off. Link quickly decides he actually likes being a half Zonai, that's what. This is an AU for 'Aspects of a Hero' by Tashacee because I can't get these scenes out of my head and now it's become much bigger then I ever imagined. I have changed the name of this work as I think it is big enough to deserve its own. This work was once called 'Au Aspects of a hero'.
