Gerudo Pirates' Fortress – "Courtyard" - 4 days B.C.T. – 1:11 a.m.
Hiding behind crates, Mikau checked the area for any entrances into the buildings. Most of them were high up or well protected by patrolling guards. But one heavily-guarded room stood out. Over the entrance was a skull and crossbones mark, except there were two Gerudo-style swords instead of the bones. It was blood red in the background of the mark. The only possible room that could be was the leader's room. Lulu's eggs had to be in there! But it was still under watch of too many guards. He could not take them all on at once.
Then he noticed a room above it, which led to the leader's room's attic. That would be the perfect place to enter. Mikau traced the path to it in his mind. He was on the western edge of the complex, and a watch tower that had a ladder on the bottom was in the middle. The second floor of the tower had a bridge that led straight to his targeted entrance. What he had to do was eliminate the guards patrolling the bottom and the bridge. He also had to do this while avoiding the notice of the other two Gerudos patrolling the spots where they could see him, should they look.
Mikau ran behind the crate close to the bottom-floor guard. He waited till the other guards weren't looking and…attacked! He brought himself and the Gerudo down, flat on the ground, and knocked her unconscious. Then he stuffed her body in a crate. During all this, everything was as silent as the grave.
The other two guards that could see the area Mikau was assaulting took a minute to realize the guard in the crate was gone. One spoke to the other. "Hey, where's Tabora?"
"She's patrolling the stairs of the watch tower, you fool." The other one snapped.
"No, she's not. Look."
"Let's see…hey, you're right. She could be late for duty."
"She was just there a minute ago."
"Hmm…that's very odd. You should report it to the leader. Her name is Urooban in case you didn't know."
"Right." As she began to walk away, she turned around and came back. "Umm…"
"What's the matter? Go."
"I don't know where Urooban's room is."
"Imbecile!"
"You don't have to yell…sorry, but I'm new here."
"It's the one with skull and cross-swords. Red coloring. Can't miss it; it's the only one like it."
As the other guard started to leave, the other followed. The new one asked "Why are you following me?"
"To make sure you don't say something stupid to Urooban."
After they went inside, Mikau could hardly believe his luck. By eliminating one guard (Tabora), he had made all the others leave! Or at least, the two that could spot him. The only important one left now was the one on the bridge. He climbed to watchtower's ladder slowly. When he got to the top, he ducked behind a corner.
In that little corner, he waited. The second the bridge's guard came in, he would strike. He waited, every nerve in his fist tense and tight. The suspense was killing him. Finally, a head covered in purple cloth came through. Wham. She went down hard. Mikau took a deep breath of relief and crossed the bridge. He went into the "attic" of Urooban's room…
