A.N. Ha, this idea started with the Gerudo outfit you need to get into Gerudo Town and then more ideas started popping up. I work best with the mice, deal with it. Also their Horror movie incident of the same caliber that I'm treating this with is a reference to a story bit made by a friend of mine, Squad Unit 19. Enjoy my insanity!^.^
Minnie was the first to wake up after hearing an unfamiliar feminine voice. Slowly she opened her eyes and immediately felt herself half submerged in some sort of liquid and it was receding, at the corner of her eyes she could see that it was glowing bright blue.
She jump started herself from the dazed haze of what felt like a really long sleep, just so she could panic at not knowing where she was. Nothing of her surroundings had any sort of familiarity to her and most importantly she didn't know how she got there. At least she realized that she was in a pod of some sort, and looking back at what she was laying down on, she noticed a symbol that she did recognize, it was a symbol of a crying eye from her husband's favorite videogame series.
She looked over the side of her pod and noticed that hers wasn't the only one in here. Minnie couldn't help but jump and trip out of her pod the second she realized who was in that other pod. Mickey, and he hadn't woken yet. She crawled right in with him not caring about the glowing blue liquid since she was still soaked from it in her pod.
Mickey was also roused by the sound of an unfamiliar feminine voice calling his name and telling him to open his eyes, but soon that voice was replaced by one he was much more familiar with, that of his wife's voice.
"Mickey! Oh thank goodness you're alright!" Minnie gushed, hugging him tightly as he finally roused awake enough that the liquid around them receded and he managed to sit up though still in a slight daze.
When he finally snapped into reality he hugged her back tightly and verbally checked in to make sure she was okay as he briefly took in his surroundings and noting it as oddly familiar.
"Minnie? Are you okay? Where are we?" He couldn't help but ask that last one just because he couldn't be sure if his slowly growing hunch was right.
"I'm not sure, as soon as I realized that you were in the pod next to mine I forgot to question our surroundings. I'm fine though if you are." She admitted, pulling back to get a good look at him to check for any injuries. "Oh! Oh, my…!" She gasped as she finally took the rest of him in, and herself since she was looking down. Neither of them were wearing much, him just some boxer trunks that could be passed off for swimwear if not for the fact that his…endowment, for the lack of a better term, was a bit noticeable no thanks to the design of the trunks practically outlining it, and it most certainly didn't help her that his muscles were glistening from the weird glowing liquid. As for she herself, she was also wearing what could qualify as the bare necessities since it was similar in design to Mickey's bare essentials in terms of underwear, as she was in a very simple navy blue bikini that left her as decent as possible even in underwear. Though it did manage to somewhat match his in color as the very middle part of her bra was a darker blue and so was the front of her panties, the rest of her bra and the back of her panties were the lighter blue that matched the thighs of Mickey's trunks, including the white stripes bordering the differing colors.
"Oh Jeez…" Mickey muttered as he noticed the same things as he followed her gaze. By his tone Minnie had a feeling he knew better about it, but before she could even question him on his tone she noticed something far more important.
"Oh no! My rings are gone!" She wailed and hopped back out of the pod so she could search the one she woke up in. Her engagement ring and wedding ring to be exact.
Mickey looked down and noticed his wedding ring was gone too and told her as such. He feebly felt around his respective liquid to search for it but if his growing hunch was right, he knew he wasn't going to find it, nor was Minnie going to find hers.
He looked off further off to his left and saw a suspiciously important looking pedestal at the other end of the room. His hunch was beginning to become right.
"Hey Minnie?"
"Yes, dear?" She said irritably as she was fruitlessly still trying to find her rings, they were so important to her after all.
"Remember when we got sucked into that horror movie and became a part of it a couple o' years back?" He could hear her freeze as her splashing movements stopped so abruptly.
"You had better not be suggesting what I think you're suggesting…" She started in a low tone.
"Sorry Min, but I think we're in my videogame." He replied sadly.
"Mickey Mouse!"
"And our rings were probably conductors which is why they're not with us, along with something else fer another reason that I'm not sure about yet." Mickey countered quickly before she could even argue anything.
"What other reason?" Minnie asked sharply.
"Well think about it, Minnie. If we're really in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, and the fact that there are two pods that we both woke up from, then we've taken Link's place entirely somehow…I've just got a bad feeling all the folks we run into will call us brother and sister. Hence the other reason why we don't have our rings." He explained slowly.
"You've got to be kidding me." She huffed out a sigh in agitation.
"I wish I was Min, but I'm just speculating until we finally talk to somebody and they drop some lore on us. If I'm right they'll talk about some ancient hero and his sister…we can only hope that ain't exactly the case and yer my girlfriend that they also decided to save in these pods, and I only assume that as well because of our missing rings." Mickey agreed in an equally irritated tone.
"Well, let's go find out by getting out of here, assuming we'll find clothes by then." Minnie replied in slight determination of getting this all over with. "Do I dare ask how long this game is assuming beating it is our only way out?"
"If I told you that you'd push me right off the cliff that's just outside." Mickey quipped bashfully, finally hopping out of his pod so he could hide from the incoming shrill of his name and the following complaint.
"Mickey Mouse, you just had to pick the longest game to play tonight didn't you?!"
"I can't help it, it's brand new! Besides its only as long as ya want it ta be, it is possible ta speedrun it…but I'd rather not since the final boss is tricky ta prepare fer. It won't be that bad, Minnie, I promise we just have to regain some memories and then we'll be able ta see the secret ending of the game after the credits, and with luck then we'll be able ta go home. It sure beats finding 900 Koroks."
"MICKEY THEODORE MOUSE!" Minnie shrilled again using his middle name this time. She couldn't stand being mad at him in theory but she couldn't help it, this entire situation was entirely on him.
"I knew I shouldn't have told ya my middle name when we got married." Mickey couldn't help but groan despite how hot the water he was in, sliding down further in his hopless hiding spot from her, having to raise his voice a little so she could hear him. "It doesn't sound right comin' from ya."
Luckily it managed to calm her a little.
"Couldn't be helped, we had paperwork to sign when we got married, remember?" She huffed as her anger started subsiding.
"Of course." He replied automatically finally standing up and out of hiding. "Plus I told ya 'cause I love ya." He made a point to look at her in the eye even if he was looking over his shoulder as he said it. Mickey knew he had gotten through to her on that one as he watched her own shoulders lower from the release of tension she had from being miffed at him.
"I love you too, Mickey." She cooed at him sweetly, and padded around the pods and over to him, linking her arm with him. "Now how's about we get out of here, huh?"
"Sure thing, Min." Mickey quipped cheerfully and led her over to the pedestal.
As they examined it, it moved on its own, turning a small circle of its center and presenting them with something that looked suspiciously like a cell phone from their world. Then the same feminine voice that woke them up made her presense known again as she told them that it was a Sheikah Slate, and that it would guide them after their long slumber.
The mice couldn't help but look at each other with slight suspicion since logically, they didn't really belong in this world, but if this really was going to be just like the time they got sucked into a horror movie, then they really were magically included as part of this videogame. The only actual thing stranger than the horror movie incident was that this time they actually took the hero's place by the looks of it, instead of simply being integrated in with the rest of the cast of characters. But since they were players, it made a little bit of sense, even though in this game Link's name couldn't be changed for once.
Regardless, Mickey gingerly took the Sheikah Slate with his free hand and felt…what he could only mentally describe as Link's original emotions of having never seen the device before but still sensing something familiar about it. It was weird to say the least, and as he looked over to Minnie and saw her seemingly go through the same feelings judging by her face and how she was trying to shake something off internally.
"Ya felt it too didn't ya?" He decided to ask her outright. Just to make sure he himself wasn't going crazy if anything.
"Emotions that definitely weren't mine, you mean?" She saw him nod. "Then yes." She nodded as well. "Let's just get out of here please, it's all weird enough as is."
As if on cue the pedestal retracted and opened the door ahead for them.
"Point taken, but you'll get used to it." Mickey quipped soothingly, patting her hand that was on his arm lovingly. "After all, I magically have a belt ta hold this thing, and it just clips right on and off like its nothin'."
Minnie looked down to see that he was right, he really did suddenly have a belt just there to carry the Sheikah Slate and it came with a little pouch in the back on his other side, closest to her. Then she had the one thought that made it make sense as well as any other coincidences. "Videogame logic?"
"Yep, now yer getting' it." Mickey said with a wide smile. "C'mon, if I remember correctly from the E3 presentation on this game last year, there should be some clothes for us in that next room."
Sure enough there was, for both of them, since whatever sucked them in was powerful enough to rewrite them in Link's place, naturally it rewrote other aspects as well, such as clothing for each of them. The clothes were old and well-worn, and surprisingly there was a skirt for Minnie, and after putting on the shirts they realized rather quickly that they had to switch because they had each other's.
After finally becoming more presentable to the world outside and ahead, Mickey put the Sheikah Slate on another pedestal, as per the instructions given by the mysterious voice again. The pedestal authenticated it and opened the door that led outside completely judging by the light shining in. Then the voice came again.
"Mickey and Minnie…You two are the light – our light – that must shine on Hyrule once again. Now go…"
The mice couldn't help but look at each other again in skepticism, complete with a raised eyebrow.
"Awfully dependent on us isn't she?" Minnie said in slight sarcasm.
"Yeah, but she's got every reason ta be, she got herself stuck in the biggest ditch in the world and she needs us to help get her out." Mickey replied a little more seriously than even he intended. Part of that came from Link even though Link was supposed to have completely lost his memories and not exactly understand the weight of his words and his conversation. He shook it off and told her, "C'mon, let's get outta here, this place is gettin' ta me." And he went on ahead so he could help her climb up, however, by videogame logic alone, she could climb just as easily as he could.
As soon as they hit the grass, their legs moved on their own as they stepped out of the shadows and into the sunlight, and their legs took the all the way to the edge of the cliff. They drank in the world as far as they could see, and all of it was free for them to explore as they started this day on a glorious morning.
They could actually see the title drop of the game at the corner of their eyes (since they were technically players) and then their attention was drawn by a little camp fire to their right as they caught sight of a mysterious old man, who in turn noticed them but didn't wave and instead, simply walked back to his campfire. He was just down the hill from them.
In the end when all was said and done, the tower, the trials and the old man revealing himself as a long dead king, the tale of the past he wove for them included their roles to each other. It was by luck that they were still seen as husband and wife even though their rings had gone missing 'during the fall of Hyrule and their own consciousness as they fought 'til the end for Princess Zelda'.
