Dib followed his sister down the dusty path. She led him to a building with an atrocious-looking sign propped up beside the door. The door opened and Link came out. He nodded to Gaz. "It's time to leave," she interpreted.
Link led the siblings back to the King of Red Lions and got in. He waited patiently for the other two passengers to return, to which Dib said frantically, "Don't worry about Zim; let's go without him!"
Link yawned and stretched, a subtle action that caused the boat to drift away from the dock slightly. He was just about to raise the sail when, seemingly out of nowhere, Zim and Gir jumped off the dock about ten feet into the air. The angry pigs fell into the water, where they cooled off and waded back to shore. Zim fell into the boat, screaming. Gir landed right on top of the King's head!
The King of Red Lions said nothing as the little green "dog" stood up and hopped into the crowd with the rest of the crew. Zim, however, decided to deliver a very angry monologue to his archenemy:
"You smelly DIB-BEAST! You DARE to attempt to leave the ALMIGHTY ZIM behind? With those filthy STINKBEASTS? CURSE YOU, HUMAN! You will PAY! YOU WILL PAY!"
"The piggies are gone," Gir realized with a sniffle.
Gaz followed in Link's example and remained silent, although she was slowly losing her patience. Fortunately, she had her Game Slave 2 to keep her busy.
Once again, they were headed for the Triangle Islands. Link had the three Pearls he needed to place in the Goddess statues, and he was ready complete the task he was destined to perform. Soon, his sister Aryll would be safe at home with her big brother and her grandmother, and everyone else would be back to…wherever it was they came from. The King of Red Lions sailed proudly off in the direction of the nearest Triangle, with the elfin hero bravely keeping the boat on course with the Wind Waker.
…Until the batteries in Gaz's GS2 died.
