Meeting Zelda and Sonic's Groups and the Eds/Escape from the Castle

*(Later in the dungeon, Link’s group, except the Rowdyruff Boys, are seated there in silence and sadness. Link then began to listen to the voices of himself, his group, Terra, and Aqua speaking out)*

Link: (Voice-over, hopefully) So, that means we can try and save the day?

Rest of Link’s group: (Voice-over, hopefully) Or maybe Hyrule?

Terra and Aqua: (Voice-over) Yes.

Terra: (Voice-over) Just as long as you don’t do anything brash.

Aqua: (Voice-over) And remember, untried courage is no match for the villains’ evil. Be careful.

Link: (Voice-over) Look at me, Wilbur! I can do it!

*(He sighed sadly. Then Aryll sadly broke the silence)*

Aryll: (Sadly) It’s mine and Wilbur’s fault we’re captured, isn’t it?

*(Hearing her say that, Link’s group smiled a bit to comfort her)*

Link: No, it’s not.

Comet Tail: We’ll find a way to escape.

Caramel: Yeah. Just stay positive and confident and anything is possible.

*(Aryll smiled a bit from these comforting words)*

Aryll: Thanks.

*(They then rested themselves against the wall)*

Aryll: Any escape ideas?

Thunderlane: Nothing yet.

Braeburn: What we need is a miracle.

*(Suddenly, they heard a flagstone moving on the floor nearby. They turned and got calmly suspicious. Then, to their calm surprise after the flagstone opened, 11 girls and a male baby dragon emerged from the hole and looked around cautiously, with the last girl the same age as Link emerging last. And here comes the introductions; The first girl is a teenage unicorn-like girl with lavender skin, violet eyes, dark indigo hair with pink and purple streaks, and wearing a light blue short-sleeved shirt with a pink bowtie, a purple skirt with a pink star and five white stars, and purple and pink legwarmers with black dress shoes. She is Twilight Sparkle, the leader and bookworm of the Mane Seven. The second girl is a teenage Pegasus-like girl with sky-blue skin, magenta eyes, rainbow colored hair with bangs hanging in the right side of her face, and wearing a blue short-sleeved button up shirt, a white short-sleeved shirt with a rainbow lightning bolt on it, a tight fitting black biker shorts underneath a pink and white skirt, rainbow colored bracelets, matching knee socks, and light blue and white converse shoes. She is Rainbow Dash, the competitive member of the Mane Seven. The third girl is a teenage pony-like girl with ivory yellow skin, teal eyes, and light pink hair, which was held in a butterfly hair clip, wearing a white tanktop, a grass-green skirt with three white and pink butterflies on it, a pink skirt lace with white polka dots, matching knee-high socks, and grass-green boots with white frills on them. She is Fluttershy, the shy voice of reason of the Mane Seven. The fourth girl is a teenage earth pony-like girl with a brown cowboy hat, tan skin with white freckles on her face, green eyes, tied up blonde hair, a southern accent, and wearing a white and green short-sleeved shirt, a brown belt with a red apple, a blue denim miniskirt with two pockets and a light blue skirt lace, and brown boots with three apples on each of them. She is Applejack, the tomboy of the Mane Seven. The fifth girl is a teenage pony-like girl with pure white skin, dark blue eyes, royal purple hair which is combed in wavy curls most of the time, a Mid-Atlantic accent, and wearing a short-sleeved pale blue shirt, two gold bracelets, a lilac skirt with blue and violet accents and three cyan diamonds on it, a blue triple-diamond barette, a violet designer belt and lilac boots with cyan diamonds on them. She is Rarity, the beauty queen of the Mane Seven. The sixth girl is a teenage pony-like girl with pale pink skin, light blue eyes, curly magenta hair, and wearing a white short-sleeved shirt with a pink heart on it, a blue long-sleeved jacket, two matching bracelets, a pink skirt with two blue balloons and a yellow balloon on it, and blue boots with pink bows on them. She is Pinkie Pie, the hyperactive member of the Mane Seven. The seventh girl is a teenage pony-like girl with light amber skin, cyan eyes, red hair with yellow streaks, and wearing a magenta halter shirt with a red and yellow sun on it and a black halterneck strap on her neck, and orange skirt with a yellow stripe and a purple stripe on it, black wristbands with magenta studs on each of them, and black boots with magenta flame markings on them. She is Sunset Shimmer, the Mane Seven’s newest member and best friend. The eighth girl is a five year old doll-like girl with long orange hair, pink eyes, and wearing a big red bow on top of her head, a pink hairclip with a red heart on it tying her hair in a ponytail, a pink sleeveless dress with a black line, white stockings, and black Mary Jane shoes. She is Blossom, the leader of the Powerpuff Girls. The ninth girl is a five year old doll-like girl with short blonde hair tied in pigtails, baby blue eyes, and wearing a baby blue sleeveless dress with a black line, white stockings, and black Mary Jane shoes. She is Bubbles, Blossom’s sister and the cute member of the Powerpuff Girls. The tenth girl is a five year old doll-like girl with short black hair, light green eyes, and wearing a light green sleeveless dress with a black line, white stockings and black Mary Jane shoes. She is Buttercup, Blossom and Bubbles’ sister and the tough member of the Powerpuff Girls. The last girl is, like it’s mentioned above, the same age as Link and she has long hip-length gold lemon-yellow hair, gray blue eyes, and wearing a small gold tiara-like headband, a pair of small gold dangly three triangle-shaped earrings, a white cropped tanktop with pink spaghetti straps, a small gold three triangle-shaped necklace, a blue ring bracelet on her left wrist, a sky blue knee-length flowing skirt, and purple flat shoes. And the baby male dragon with them has purple scales, green eyes, and light green horns and underbelly. He is Spike, Twilight Sparkle’s assistant and the Mane Seven’s best friend. The girls and Spike, after looking around, sighed and turned to Bubbles)*

Buttercup: Bubbles, you said this was the exit!

Bubbles: Sorry. But I thought this was it. They were similar.

Rainbow Dash: Like I told you, it’s at the other side of the catacombs!

*(Fluttershy and Spike noticed Link’s group watching in calm amazement)*

Spike: Who are you guys?

Fluttershy: Yeah.

*(The other girls noticed and showed calm amazement as well)*

Both groups: Hi there.

Girl: Are you held prisoner as well?

Link: Yes.

Ember: Are you here because…?

Twilight Sparkle: We’re held against our will, too. And we hate it.

Buttercup: We know what you mean, Twilight Sparkle.

Comet Tail: We also know what you mean.

*(Spike went up to Ember and bows to her)*

Spike: Seems like we’re in a pickle together.

*(Ember blushed a bit with a soft smile, glad to see Spike’s polite manner)*

Ember: (Blushing) Tell me about it.

Blossom: Anyway, how’d you get here?

Soarin: We were captured helping our magical pig escape.

Link: And my sister here.

Aryll: Yep.

*(Link then asked away to the girl the same age as him)*

Link: What about you, Miss…?

Girl: Zelda. Princess Zelda.

*(Realizing, Link’s group got surprised)*

Link’s group: Princess?

*(They bowed, but the girl, now revealed to be Zelda, giggled a bit along with her group)*

Zelda: It’s okay. You don’t need to bow or grovel. I don’t mind.

*(Link’s group understood and stopped bowing)*

Link: Anyway, how were you…?

Zelda: Infinite and the Gwythaints invaded Hyrule Castle and abducted us, except the Powerpuff Girls, by holding us hostage.

Applejack: Then we were brought to this castle because Myotismon, Ganondorf, and their army want us to use our powers to find the Black Cauldron.

Link: Just like they wanted our pig to find it.

Rarity: Exactly.

Pinkie Pie: Then they decided to find your pig once they sensed his magic and we tried to escape from that distraction of theirs by fighting back against them.

Sunset Shimmer: Then we were locked up in this dungeon when we refused to cooperate, claiming that we need to think of our “defiant behavior.”

Spike: And Myotismon’s cruel son of his named Vanitas told Zelda off by claiming that she will marry his “Uncle Ganondorf.”

Comet Tails: Holy Hylia!

Zelda: Which I will never do at all!

Blossom: Besides, Ganondorf’s too old and evil to be her type.

*(Zelda nods in agreement)*

Zelda: But thankfully, the Powerpuff Girls here followed us from Hyrule Castle and busted us out.

Blossom: So, now we’re searching for the way out through the catacombs.

Pokey Pierce: Hence why you’re here.

*(Zelda’s group nods. Then Link’s group suddenly remembered the Rowdyruff Boys)*

Link: Oh! The Rowdyruff Boys!

Flash Sentry: We have to save them before…!

Blossom: No problem.

Buttercup: One of our Hylian Knights is secretly rescuing them already.

Bubbles: Yeah. Along with 19 other Hylian Knights that went with me and my sisters.

Link: 20 Hylian Knights and you three?

*(Link’s group thought it over and then realized)*

Link: Come to think of it, we saw 20 cloaked figures here before getting captured.

Thunderlane: And who were they?

Blossom: You’ll see when we meet up with them outside the catacombs.

Bubbles: And in disguise.

Link’s group: (Hopefully) “We?”

Zelda: Yep. “We” as in all of us, since we now know we’re all captives on the escape.

Rainbow Dash: Shall we?

*(Link’s group nods and they go down the hole into the catacombs. Elsewhere in a nearby cell, the Rowdyruff Boys were quietly sitting around, a little concerned of their fate)*

Butch: I wish Link’s group were here.

Boomer: Yeah.

Brick: Well, they’re not.

*(Suddenly, they heard the cell door unlock and got determined)*

Brick: Get ready….

*(Then, the door opened to reveal a cloaked figure carrying an axe)*

Brick: Now!

*(They charge at him, but the figure stopped them calmly, making them stop right in front of him in suspicion and then the figure made a hush sign)*

Rowdyruff Boys: (Whispering) Huh?

Brick: (Whispering) Why’d you stop us?

Boomer and Butch: (Whispering) Yeah?

*(Then the figure spoke up, revealing to be a male)*

Male figure: (Whispering) I’m here to help you escape. I knocked the real executioner out and scheduled your so-called execution to now.

*(The Rowdyruff Boys got surprised)*

Rowdyruff Boys: (Whispering) Really?

*(The male figure nods and then pulled three shackles out)*

Male figure: (Whispering) Two other guards are waiting. Play along with me.

*(Getting it, the Rowdyruff Boys nod in agreement with smiles and then played along after letting the male figure shackle their wrists)*

Rowdyruff Boys: Let go of us!

Male figure: (In rough voice) Get moving, now!

*(Once out of the cell, the male figure ushered the Rowdyruff Boys towards the empty gallows along with two other guards. Once they went up the gallows, the Rowdyruff Boys kneeled down to a chopping block in pretend sadness. Then the male figure raised his axe, as if ready to chop their heads off. Then, miraculously, the male figure, instead of dropping the axe’s blade on the Rowdyruff Boys’ necks, swung the axe’s handle like a bo stick and knocked the two guards out by whacking them on their heads. Then the male figure broke the shackles off the Rowdyruff Boys with the axe and threw the axe aside. Then the four ran off the gallows and into the catacombs. Elsewhere in the catacombs, Link and Zelda’s groups continued their trek when they heard four footsteps. They turned and got ready to defend themselves when they see, to their happiness, the male figure and the Rowdyruff Boys)*

Link and Zelda’s group: Hey!

*(Noticing them, the four approached them, much to the Rowdyruff Boys’ happiness and surprise)*

Brick: Hey!

Boomer: How’d you get out?

Butch: And who’re these girls and male dragon?

*(Link’s group explained away)*

Comet Tail: These girls were captives as well.

Pokey Pierce: But they escaped and helped us escape.

Aryll: They are Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Rarity, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, and Sunset Shimmer of the Mane Seven, Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup of the Powerpuff Girls, Twilight Sparkle’s male dragon assistant, Spike, and last, but not least, Hyrule’s Princess Zelda.

*(Impressed and interested, the Rowdyruff Boys understood)*

Brick: Nice to meet you all.

Butch: Word.

Boomer: And these doll-like girls are cute.

Brick and Butch: (Nods) Yeah.

*(The Powerpuff Girls smiled a bit and blushed at that comment)*

Powerpuff Girls: Thanks.

Caramel: But who’s this figure that helped you?

*(The male figure then answered)*

Male figure: Glad you asked.

*(Then he removed his cloak to reveal his true form. A male 16 year old Mobian wolf with red fur, peach-colored skin, blue eyes, and wearing a pair of brown aviator goggles on his light brown newsboy hat with his ears sticking out on top, a black tanktop, a brown sleeveless vest, white gloves, dark blue shorts, white socks, and brown cargo boots. Zelda’s group smiled in recognition)*

Zelda’s group: Hey.

*(The male Mobian wolf nods a hello to Zelda’s group and then introduced himself to Link’s group)*

Male Mobian wolf: My name is Max. Max the Wolf.

Link’s group: Nice to meet you.

*(Later, while walking through the catacombs after already introducing themselves to each other and explaining Link’s group’s journey, the group searched for the other flagstone leading to the exit while talking)*

Zelda: So, tell me, Link. Are you either a lord or a warrior?

Link: Neither. My sister, friends, and I are pig keepers.

Zelda: (Bummed out) That’s a pity. *(Happily)*But it doesn’t matter. What matters most is how brave you were risking your life along with your friends to help your pig and sister.

*(Link smiled softly)*

Link: Thanks.

*(As they continued on, Aryll felt uncomfortable seeing some rats run by. Then noticing something offscreen, Aryll felt calmly sick to her stomach while Brick turned to her)*

Brick: Now do you believe me that rats float in water when they’re dead, Aryll?

Aryll: (Uncomfortably) Yes….

*(Then suddenly, Link, and even Aryll and Zelda sensed something, much to the group’s notice)*

Twilight Sparkle: What is it?

Max: Something bad approaching us?

Link, Zelda, and Aryll: No…. Something magical….

*(They then turned to the source of what they sensed and walked over to a door with a three triangle-shaped symbol)*

Group: The Triforce….

*(Suddenly, Link, Zelda, and Aryll’s right hands glowed a gold light and they and the group noticed that the symbol of the Triforce is glowing on the three’s hands)*

Zelda: It’s even on our hands….

Link: But why?

*(Suddenly, the Triforce of their hands activated the door and the door opened to reveal an empty chamber and in the center of the room stood a pedestal and resting in the pedestal, the group saw as they took a closer look upon entering….)*

Group: A sword.

*(Max takes a closer look)*

Max: Not just a sword.

*(He inspects it and realized what it is. It is a magical-looking sword with a blue handle with a yellow diamond-shaped symbol engraved between the handle and blade)*

Max: It’s the Master Sword.

*(The group realized)*

Blossom: The legendary magical sword that evil can never touch.

Brick: And a powerful sword as well.

Link: And only one with a pure heart of a hero can pull it out of that pedestal and wield it.

*(Silence, then Max tried to pull the Master Sword out of its pedestal, but it wouldn’t budge)*

Max: I can’t get it out.

Brick: (Approaching the sword) Then let me and my brothers try.

Comet Tail: And me and the Stallion Seven.

*(Each of them tried it, but to no luck)*

Boomer: It’s like it’s glued in the pedestal.

*(Silence, then the group turned to Link in a calm hopeful look)*

Link: Me?

*(The group nods)*

Link: Why?

Aryll: Because if you had the Triforce on you, maybe you can.

*(Calmly realizing Aryll’s right, Link nods and went up to the Master Sword after Link’s group and Max backed away. After grabbing the handle, Link took a calm deep breath, and pulled when, to their surprise, the Master Sword was removed from the pedestal. They watch in calm surprise and silence as Link held the sword in calm amazement. Then suddenly, a gold and blue sheath appeared and Link accepted it calmly)*

Zelda: The Master Sword accepted you.

*(Hearing her, Link got calmly determined, knowing that with the Master Sword, he can protect his sister and friends from danger. Then he puts the Master Sword in the sheath and then tied the belt of the sheath around his torso, making the Master Sword hang on his back. Suddenly noticing a shield, a golden bow and it’s golden arrows in a golden quiver, and even a mechanical blue grappling hook of some kind nearby, Link, Zelda, and Aryll respectively went up to them. The shield is silver with blue and red markings on the front, and the Triforce in the center)*

Link: The Legendary Hylian Shield….

Zelda: The Legendary Light Bow and Light Arrows….

Aryll: And the Legendary Longshot….

*(Suddenly, the three objects glowed upon being touched by Link, Zelda, and Aryll, as if they accepted them as their owners. Deciding to take them as well, Link attached the Hylian Shield on his back, Zelda puts on the quiver and bow, and Aryll attached the Longshot’s belt around her torso like a backpack)*

Comet Tail: Now we’re getting somewhere.

*(Then noticing a slingshot nearby, Link grabbed it and its pellets and they run out. They look around until they found another flagstone)*

Blossom: This is it….

*(They opened it quietly and cautiously saw, to their calm surprise and happiness, it was the way out of the dungeon and back into the castle. They see the 19 cloaked figures sitting around, as if waiting for them)*

Max: (Whispering) Guys…!

*(The figures noticed them and nods silently. Then they heard something approach and they hide after the group climbed out of the hole and closed the flagstone quietly. As they remain hidden, they see Demidevimon and Vanitas ushering a guard pulling a cart into another chamber)*

Vanitas: Great job getting another deceased villain into our collection.

Demidevimon: Yeah! This’ll please them!

Vanitas: And me.

Demidevimon: Yeah, yeah.

*(As they entered the chamber, the cart was pulled inside, and as its wheel landed on a bump, a skeletal arm fell out from beneath the cloak and then the cart was pulled inside. Once the door closed, the group and cloaked figures turned to each other and nodded)*

Male figure with calm strict voice: (Whispering) Let’s get out of here before they return.

*(They run by the chamber and once in an empty corner room, the group turned to the cloaked figures)*

Link: (Whispering) You’re Max’s fellow Hylian Warriors, right?

*(The cloaked figures nod. Then another female voice, sounding like sultry, spoke up)*

Female figure: (Whispering) Yep.

*(They removed their cloaks and armor, revealing themselves to be 18 Mobians, a male Chao, a male frog, and a male robot.

*(Sonic’s group nods as Max went by them)*

Sonic: (Whispering) We attempted to tell you we were here with the Powerpuff Girls to rescue Princess Zelda, her ladies-in-waiting, and Spike and locate the Black Cauldron ourselves so we can hide it from Myotismon, Ganondorf, and their army.

*(Link’s group got surprised)*

Link’s group: (Whispering) Really?

Zelda and Sonic’s groups: (Whispering) Yes.

Rarity: (Whispering) It’s to save Hyrule and the world from the undead.

*(Realizing, Link’s group got interested)*

Link’s group: (Whispering) Ah.

*(Noticing the weapons Link, Zelda, and Aryll have, Sonic’s group, except Max, got calmly surprised)*

Tails: (Whispering) Where did you find the Master Sword, the Hylian Shield, the Light Bow and Arrows, and the Longshot?

*(Later, all was explained)*

Tails: (Whispering) So, that explains it.

Kayla: (Whispering) We had no idea you, Aryll, and the princess have the Triforce within you….

Max: (Whispering) Kind of surprising, huh?

Kayla: (Whispering with a nod) Yeah.

*(After thinking it over, Sonic’s group turned to Link and Zelda’s group)*

Knuckles: (Whispering) We’ve been thinking it over….

Espio: (Whispering) Since the weapons you found chose Link, Aryll, and even Zelda, we decided to let you accompany us on our quest.

*(Calmly surprised, Link and Zelda’s groups were about to speak, but Espio cut them off calmly)*

Espio: (Whispering) And yes, we understand Link’s group’s concern for Wilbur the pig, but rest assured, my group and I are certain he’s fine. And finding the Black Cauldron and hiding it is more important.

Charmy: (Whispering) And not to mention risky, but fun.

*(Understanding, Link and Zelda’s groups gave in)*

Link and Zelda’s groups: (Whispering) Okay.

Bubbles: (Whispering) But where will we go to find out the Black Cauldron’s location?

Vector: (Whispering) We were ordered by King Daphnes Nohansen Hyrule himself to consult the Fairy Realm on where to find it after rescuing Zelda’s group.

*(Realizing even more, Link’s group agreed quickly)*

Link: (Whispering) That’s where my group and I were gonna take Wilbur to for his safety by Terra and Aqua’s orders.

*(Hearing him mention this, Zelda and Sonic’s group got surprised)*

Shadow: (Whispering) You know Terra and Aqua?

Link’s group: (Whispering) Yes.

Aryll: (Whispering) They’re our mentors on pig keeper duties.

*(A short pause, then Silver spoke up)*

Silver: (Whispering) More than just pig keepers. They’re Hylian Knights as well.

*(Link’s group got interested)*

Link’s group: (Whispering) Really?

Soarin: (Whispering) We had no idea….

Link: (Whispering) Terra and Aqua *did*mention they were gonna tell me and Aryll our origin when Wilbur and us met up with them at the Fairy Realm….

*(Understanding the same destination they’re aiming for after contemplating, the group came to an agreement)*

Sonic: (Whispering) Then we’ll go to the Fairy Realm together after we escape.

Link and Zelda’s groups: (Whispering) Yeah.

Pinkie Pie: (Whispering) We’ll make a great team.

Omega: (Whispering) Speaking of making a great team, let’s think up a good name for this newly-made team.

Charmy: (Whispering) Like me, Espio, and Vector are Team Chaotix.

Rouge: (Whispering) And me, you, and Shadow are Team Dark.

Charmy: (Whispering) How about Team CDH?

*(The group looked at him in confusion)*

Charmy: (Whispering) CDH stands for “Chaotix-Dark-Hylia.”

*(The group gave Charmy an uninterested look, making Charmy understand)*

Charmy: (Whispering) Yeah. I guess that name’s too long and stupid, huh?

Vector: (Whispering) How about Team Hylian Heroes?

Espio: (Whispering) There’s already Hylian in that name, Vector, which consists the Hylian Knights.

*(Link, Zelda, and Sonic then thought up a name)*

Link, Zelda, and Sonic: (Whispering) I got it.

*(The group turned to them)*

Link: (Whispering) Hearing the name “Hylia” brings joy and hope to us, right?

*(The group nods)*

Zelda: (Whispering) So, we thought up a great inspirational name for our team.

Sonic: (Whispering) We were thinking “Team Hylia.”

*(Interested in that name, the group nods in agreement)*

Shadow: (Whispering) That’s fine with us.

Espio: (Whispering) My sentiments exactly.

Blaze: (Whispering) Cutting out the “n” in “Hylian” to make “Hylia,” after the name of our kingdom’s goddess, is perfect for our team name.

Big: (Whispering) Yeah.

*(Froggy quietly croaks in agreement)*

Cheese: (Whispering happily) Chao, chao.

Knuckles: (Whispering) Okay. Team Hylia, it is.

Cosmo: (Whispering) Link, do you and your group know the oath to the Hylian Knight code?

*(Link’s group nodded)*

Brick: (Whispering) Memorized it.

*(Then they chanted the oath quietly as they do a hand pile)*

Group: (Whispering) This is the Code of the Hylian Knight, as old and true as the Sun, the Moon, the Stars, and the Land, the Sea, and the Sky. The knight who holds true to honor will flourish and bring hope and happiness. But the knight who breaks it will suffer the consequences like a criminal caught by authority. For the strength of the Hylian Knight is honor. And the honor of the strength is the Hylian Knight. All for one, and one for all.

*(They finished their oath and hand pile and thus, Team Hylia is born. Then they resumed their escape. Suddenly, they heard three boys’ voices, one goofy, one nasal, and one loud, shouting angrily at someone)*

Loud boy’s voice: Hey, hey, hey! Let go of us!

Nasal boy’s voice: You’re making a mistake!

Goofy boy’s voice: You’ll suffer the consequences of doom!

*(They peeked and saw the same guard and dog that Link’s group encountered before tying three boys’ hands to a wooden plank. The first boy where the goofy voice came from is a 12 year old with yellow skin, black stubby hair strands on the top of his head, a black unibrow, and is wearing a short-sleeved red and white striped shirt underneath his green long-sleeved jacket, blue pants, white socks, and black shoes. The second boy with the nasal voice is 12 years old with black stringed hair tucked underneath his black sockhat with white lines, a gap in the middle of his top teeth, and is wearing a red orange short-sleeved shirt, purple shorts, red socks, and blue shoes. And the last boy with the loud voice is 12 years old with three long black hair strands sticking out, light pink skin, and is wearing a yellow short-sleeved bowling shirt with purple rims, a white collar rim button, and a red horizontal stripe, blue pants with a white fuzzy dice string sticking out of his pocket, white socks, and red shoes)*

Guard: Aw, shut up! That’ll hold ya for trespassing in our castle!

Loud boy: For the last time, we didn’t trespass here!

Nasal boy: We just wandered in unexpectantly!

Guard: Sure you did.

Goofy boy: No, honest! If you don’t release us, we will show you the wrath of Lothar, Viking and protector of Montezuma!

*(A short pause, then the guard laughs at him)*

Guard: (Sarcastically) Right. After you told me your names are Ed, Double D, and Eddy. *(Seriously)* Now be good boys and stay here and die of starvation.

*(The goofy, nasal, and loud boys, now revealed to be Ed, Double D, due to his name being Edd with two ds, and Eddy, turned to the dog)*

Double D: (Chuckling nervously) That’s a nice-looking dog you got. Does he have a name?

*(He whistled to him, only that provoked the dog into barking and snarling savagely at the Eds, startling them)*

Eddy: Does he *look* nice to you, Double D?!

*(But the guard yanked the dog away)*

Guard: Come on!

*(Then with that, the guard and dog were gone. Then the Eds struggled to free themselves)*

Ed: My friends and I warned you!

Eddy: Forget it, Ed! He and his mongrel are gone.

Double D: I hope someone with a good heart will come to our rescue.

*(Feeling sorry for the Eds, Team Hylia nods to each other, deciding to help them. Then they approach them, getting their attention)*

Zelda: Excuse us.

Link: We heard you were waiting for a rescue.

Sonic: So, we’ll see to it that you’re free.

*(The Eds got happy)*

Ed: Hooray!

Double D: Bless you, bless you, bless you!

Eddy: Now get us out of these ropes!

*(Later, after the Eds are untied and introducing each other, Team Hylia and the Eds found the armory room)*

Amy: These weapons will be perfect for those who don’t have weapons.

Eds, Stallion Seven, and Mane Seven: Thanks.

*(Then with that, the Eds, Stallion Seven, and Mane Seven arm themselves with weapons and shields. Then Pokey Pierce notice Pinkie Pie holding a big axe while he is holding a small axe)*

Pokey Pierce: I’ll take the big axe if you like.

*(Noticing the little axe he’s holding and then noticing the big axe she’s holding, Pinkie Pie happily agreed)*

Pinkie Pie: Okay!

*(They trade. After arming themselves and leaving the armory room, they suddenly heard guards shouting from another room, one of them apparently the real executioner)*

Guard 1: (Voice-over) The prisoners escaped!

Executioner: (Voice-over) Along with the three doll-like boys we were gonna execute tomorrow!

Guard 2: (Voice-over) But I thought you executed the boys a few minutes ago, sir?

Executioner: (Voice-over) No! Someone knocked me out and stripped me of my clothes!

*(Team Hylia realized that they’re mentioning about earlier involving Max saving the Rowdyruff Boys a few minutes ago)*

Guard 2: (Voice-over) Hence the boxers.

Executioner: (Voice-over) Shut up!

Guard 1: (Voice-over) Tell the other guards to search immediately!

Executioner: (Voice-over) And get me some clothes!

*(Deciding they must hurry and escape, Team Hylia and the Eds hurry along until they reached a parapet. Link, Zelda, and Aryll suddenly tripped and fell down. The others noticed and went to go help them when….)*

Link: Go on ahead!

Zelda: We’ll catch up!

Aryll: Hurry!

*(Understanding, Team Hylia and the Eds hurry along. Link, Zelda, and Aryll arm themselves and walked around cautiously, hoping to find the others)*

Link, Zelda, and Aryll: (Whispering) Guys?

Zelda: (Whispering) Where are you?

*(After looking around some more, they suddenly bump into the same guard that destroyed Link’s old sword before)*

Guard 3: Found you!

*(Link, Zelda, and Aryll gasp and fight back successfully by Link striking the guard in the stomach by shooting his slingshot and then Zelda and Aryll pushing him down. As he recovered, the guard got angry)*

Guard 3: You brats!

*(He raises his axe to strike them, but Link quickly pulled the Master Sword out and prepared to block the attack. The guard noticed the Master Sword and pretended to become concerned)*

Guard 3: (Sarcastically) The Master Sword? Impossible!

*(Then he smirked evilly and prepared himself)*

Guard 3: Ha! I like to see your face on a destroyed weapon again!

*(He strikes, but Link swung the Master Sword, destroying the axe, much to the guard’s shock and horror and Link, Zelda, and Aryll’s surprise)*

Guard 3: (Nervously) Uh, on second thought….

*(He runs away in fear screaming. Surprise turning into happiness slowly, Link, Zelda, and Aryll were impressed)*

Link, Zelda, and Aryll: Wow….

Link: It really *is* powerful!

*(He laughs as he swung and twirled his sword in victory while Zelda and Aryll watched happily. Suddenly noticing a target attached to a hallway above, Aryll pulled the Longshot out and aimed it’s red laser at the target)*

Aryll: If that’s the case, watch this!

*(She fired her Longshot at the target and then was almost pulled up by herself when Link and Zelda grabbed onto her and they were yanked by the Longshot up to the hallway. After recovering in the hallway, they laughed and then Link mocked the guard)*

Link: (In a tough voice) “I like to see your face on a destroyed weapon again!” *(In his normal voice)* Ha! He should’ve seen the look on *his* face!

*(They laugh again until they noticed Team Hylia and the Eds approach)*

Ed: What’s so funny, guys?

Aryll: (Giggling) Link destroyed a guard’s axe!

Zelda: With the Master Sword!

Link: And you should’ve seen his scared look!

*(Surprised at first along with the Eds, Team Hylia then became impressed)*

Vector: That was awesome!

Sonic: That took a lot of guts!

Tikal: But how did you get up here?

Aryll: With my Longshot.

*(Impressed along with the others, Tikal spoke up)*

Tikal: That’s incredible!

*(The Eds got confused)*

Ed: You mean you got *the* Master Sword?

Link: Yeah.

*(A short pause)*

Eds: Cool!

*(Suddenly, they heard some guards shouting and approaching)*

Sonic: Less chatting, more running! Come on!

*(They get up and ran. Suddenly, at the stairs, a guard approached with a sword, making Aryll scream)*

Guard 4: Found you!

*(He swung his sword at them, but Link knocked the sword out of his hand with the Master Sword and pointed the blade at the guard, scaring him)*

Guard 4: Don’t hurt me!

*(Then Silver used his psychokinesis to lift the guard up and knock him down to the other guards that caught up, knocking them down. The guards notice Sonic’s group and got angry and determined)*

Guard 2: It’s Sonic’s group of the Hylian Knights!

Guard 1: Get them!

*(But Blaze used her pyrokinetic claws and kicks to knock them back)*

Blaze: (To Team Hylia and Eds) Come on!

*(They run as the guards recovered. In the winery room full of wine-filled barrels, Zelda and Link got an idea)*

Zelda: I know what you’re thinking, Link!

Link: Me too, Zelda!

*(Then with that, as the guards arrived, Link struck the barrels near him and Zelda and they backed away as wine spilled out. Even Zelda struck a barrel above by shooting a Light Arrow at it, knocking it down on the guards, stunning them and making them slip on the wine. Then Team Hylia and the Eds ran out to the courtyard and reached the closed drawbridge)*

Rouge: Shadow! Get us out!

Shadow: Understood!

*(They suddenly noticed from behind, the guards and even Demidevimon and Vanitas charging at them)*

Vanitas: Thought you’d escape, huh?!

Demidevimon: We got ya! Demi Dart!

*(He throws the dart at the group, but they dodged. Soon the guards threw some weapons at them, making Team Hylia and the Eds dodge)*

Cream: Hurry, Shadow!

*(Shadow then used his power)*

Shadow: Chaos Control!

*(Then he teleported right next to Demidevimon, Vanitas, and the guards and sneak-attacked them by knocking a wooden beam on them, knocking them down and stunning them. Then Shadow nods to Team Hylia and the Eds and then Link destroyed the chain holding the drawbridge up and the drawbridge fell. Team Hylia and the Eds started to run when the Eds turned around and shouted out to the recovered villains)*

Eds: Long live King Daphnes Nohansen Hyrule!

*(They blew their raspberries at them. Then Vanitas threw his Keyblade in anger at them like a boomerang, but Shadow suddenly appeared and deflected the Keyblade with his Chaos Lance. Then Shadow struck the rope holding the gate up with his Chaos Lance again. Then the gate shut quickly, preventing the guards, Vanitas, and Demidevimon from following)*

Shadow: (Smirks lightly with a scoff) You said it, Eds.

*(Then Link called out to the villains)*

Link: And don’t forget our team name!

Team Hylia: Team Hylia!

*(Vanitas’ anger then boiled as he punched the closed gate)*

Vanitas: Well, Team Hylia, we’ll see to it that we *will*eventually catch you!

*(Then with that, Team Hylia and the Eds, after glaring at the villains, ran out into the forest)*
