Emily awakens to see Hyrule Field sprawling out before her.

"Holy crap. We're here. We're actually HERE!" Emily mutters, fascinated.

"YEAH! What? Did you think we weren't coming to Hyrule?" Vaati snorts, bemused.

"Actually, she DID think at one point that we were just pervs, kidnapping her just for rape," Dark cuts in.

Alex wakes up, annoyed and confused.

"AAAAAAAAAHHHHHH! EMILY! NATURE! IT'S TOUCHING MEEE! IT'S EVERYWHERE! WAAAAHHHHHH!" Alex screams suddenly, her expression terrified and twisted in pure horror.

"What's wrong with her?!" Dark inquires, his eyebrows twitching.

"That's just her personality. And she's some-what allergic to Nature… You just HAD to tie me to HER, didn't you?! DIDN'T YOU?! She's clinically INSANE, for goodness sake! I mean, of all people to tie me to, you chose her. You COULD have conceivably have tied me to Aaron or ASHTON! I'd rather be tied to HIM than HER!" Emily complains emphatically.

"Emily. A bug. It's crawling towards me... I'm gonna kill it," Alex says.

Alex squirms around, toppling the two of them to the ground.

"NO! Not with your face!" Emily cries, realizing too late what Alex was doing.

"Alright, you two. Knock it off. Our ride should be here soon," Vaati commands, his gaze searching far and wide for a sign.

Dark sits the girls back up not at all gently.

"Oh yes. Dark, I forgot to mention something earlier. It has to do with the prisoners. Come with me," Vaati mentions off-handly, walking a distance away from the others.

Dark follows Vaati, his expression unreadable.

"You still got my pocketknife?" Alex says.

"Yeah, it's in my pocket. I think you should be able to reach it. I feel kinda bad about leaving the guys, though," Emily whispers.

"They'll be fine. They're big boys. They can survive until we come back to rescue them," Alex consoles, starting to hack at their bonds. "I… Got it!" Alex whispers in triumph.

Alex and Emily lean against each other to hide the fact that they are free. They both watch the two captors carefully, waiting to see if they suddenly have the urge to look back at them.

"On my mark, we start running... One, two, three!" Emily cries.

Alex and Emily book it away from the scene, not wasting a single second they can use for escape. It takes a rather large head start on their part before Dark and Vaati notice their absence.

"After them!" Vaati shrieks.

Dark starts chasing the girls, leaving Vaati with the boys. Luckily for Vaati, both are still out cold. Otherwise, much heckling and threats would have occurred.

"Do you have ANY idea of where we're going?" Alex cries.

"Nope! Head for that bridge! We might be able to lose him after we cross," Emily replies breathily.

Alex and Emily start crossing the bridge, Dark following closely behind. About mid-way across the bridge, Alex trips, and breaks the railing. Emily grabs Alex's hand with every intention of pulling her up. Instead, Alex drags her down, leaving them dangling, holding onto the ledge with a vice-like grip. Dark then strolls lazily over to the precariously perched girls with a swagger that provokes Alex into a slight anger.

Chuckling, he offers, "Need a hand?"

Dark crouches down to pull up both the girls up at once, and grunts, "Why are you so heavy?! You're really light when you're apart, but weigh a TON when you're together!"

"Well, excuse me! I'm trying to lay off the cake, okay?! It's just REALLY hard!" Emily shouts up to Dark, annoyed.

"Emily! You don't NEED to lay off the cake because you're SKINNY!" Alex calls down with a sigh.

"Dark! Whatever you do, DON'T LOOK DOWN!" Emily calls haughtily.

Of course, counter to what Emily said, Dark Link looks down at what the girls are trying NOT to fall into. A large, blue-silver, raging river flows beneath their feet, threatening and sure to kill if unwary. Alex takes advantage of Dark's distraction, and bites his arm, drawing blood in the process. Dark hisses in pain, and falls over the edge of the bridge. He nearly drops into the water, but Emily catches him with the last push of her strength.

"Oh! He's one to talk about being heavy! He's practically ripping my arm out of its SOCKET!" Emily moans.

"Well, I wasn't asking for you to save me! Let me go, so I can die with some shred of dignity!" Dark replies, demandingly.

"Ummm…. Emily? I just want you to know that you'll always be my best friend/cinnamon," Alex calls down hesitantly.

"And you'll always be MY super long acronym/water loving best friend. I'm guessing that you're slipping, aren't you?" Emily replies with just as much empathy.

"Yeah… I can't hold on much longer. I'm sorry," Alex sighs.

With a great splash, the three fall into the raging river, screaming.

"ALEX!" Emily shrieks. She can't see. She can't stay afloat. She can't do ANYTHING to help!

"Emily! Where are you?" Alex calls. She can't find the poor, nearly drowning girl in the near darkness of the ravine

"ALEX! I can't see!" Emily sobs, completely at a loss.

"Don't worry! I'll find you. Just keep talking!"

"I am SO scared! I don't know where we ARE! I think that Dark may be right next to ME! I am so HUNGRY! I want CAKE! I was KIDNAPPED! And now I'm somewhere in Hyrule River!" Emily sings with the tone-deafened voice of a panicked harpy.

"I've got you," Alex says, grabbing Emily's hand. "Hold your breath! We're going down some rapids!" Alex warns.
