Fanfic prompt: considering the fact that four had to deal with shadow straight up bombing him he probably would’ve learned to just bolt whenever a shadow creature is standing menacingly in the air
All of him learned it because even when he turned to the side of good he still drops the bombs on four (so that the colors remain vigilant because he is a good friend of course )
The chain ends up in his Hyrule and they certainly didn’t learn such a lesson so when they see a shadow appear they immediately prepare for combat
But the second they see the usually fearless four start running like hell is on his heels they followed especially because he kept cursing bad enough that even Wind looked concerned
And not a second to late because immediately after running behind a bolder an explosion goes off
And while the others are still trying to orientate themselves and stop the ringing in their ears (four was the only one covering his ears because of the amount of experience he has with explosives)
And they are helpless as they see the shadow link get close with only four still on his feet
For some reason four isn’t drawing his sword
When the shadow strikes at four everyone is already closing their eyes to not see him be killed
When they hear four screaming they open their eyes to see four on the ground and the shadow on him
And four just starts petting him
Wait what's happening right now?!
They quickly catch themselves standing up to fight the monster
But four just picks him up and hugs him close
TELLING HIM HE MISSED HIM !?!‘!.?,.KL!.!?
the chain then gets introduced to shadow and as they stare dumbfoundedly while following four to his grandfather’s house
Shadow somehow managed to one up his antics again when time tried to say hallo
That demon hissed at him and both four and his grandpa started to tell him to stop scaring him
The chain quickly found out there exists someone who somehow was even more horrible then all their worst enemies combined
That night they were forced to sleep with one eye open because shadow was staring at them from above the wardrobe (except for some ungodly reason Wind won that monster's favor because he and shadow were both pranking the chain they were like dynamite and fire )
Shadow is like a cat with eldrich powers and always hanging of four who doesn’t even flinch when the other bites him in the arm (he just keeps petting him )
The betrayal the entire chain felt when four (whose eyes looked very violett at that moment) said that they should probably learn how to safely escape from explosives and if shadow would be so kind as to show them
Was unparalleled by any other dread they have ever experienced
