The Black Triforce

CHP 15: Break into castle

Laying back within his prison/jail cell is Link who just looks up at the ceiling wondering if he'll ever get out of this place. But an even better question is, will he ever see that of his home world Hyrule ever again; with the way things have played out thus far it's hard to predict what will happen next. Listening to a door opening down the hall, he sits up.

"Hey Link are you feeling any better from earlier?" Michelangelo asks from his cell across the room.

Turning his attention to Mikey, the Hylian nods his head informing that he is doing much better after getting a good deal of rest. For guys like them, life will be a little bit tougher; but sometimes you just have to go with the flow. Stretching out Link moves down to the end of the bed sitting back. It isn't long before the footsteps come to a stop with one of the prison guards standing in the middle of the room.

"Listen you prison trash, you'll have twenty minutes of cafeteria time and then it will be back to work...Got it!" The guard says making himself clear.

Before doing anything else the guard waits for more of his backup before proceeding. With the press of a button, the laser/electric prison bars to each prisoners cell is uplifted. Following the guards the group is lead to the cafeteria. Picking up a tray for himself as well as Michelangelo; Link gets into the line. Those rumors about prison food not being so good is true, even being in an entirely different world that still holds true. But hey I guess it's better than nothing.

"Pssed Mike, do you see any of the others out there?" Link asks somewhat whispering.

Both individuals look over in the area of where all the tables are, but don't see any of their teammates. But that isn't surprising, seeing that the two of them are on a different cell block than the rest of their group which means their time to eat and or breaks won't always fall in place with them.

"I'm sure they're doing fine, but it sure would be nice if we could all group up. Being apart will get us no further in escaping this madhouse!" Michelangelo complains.

Hearing the words of Michelangelo brings a smirk to the face of Link who just chuckles a bit, completely agreeing. It may not be on the mind of Mikey, but Link would sure like to know what happened to Batman; after he escaped there has been no word about him. Plus there is always the possibility that security went out and hunted him down; possibly putting an end to the Dark Knight! But that is only speculation, none of them can be 100% sure on what may have happened. On a positive thought, there is also the reality he could be just fine; plotting on how he'll get the rest of them out of here.

"Hey Link we're up, is everything ok? You seem to be daydreaming." Mikey says.

Hearing that of Michelangelo truly brings him back to reality, putting out his tray as both of them are served the daily special. Continuing forward it is Mikey who leads them over to a table where they both take a seat waiting for their lunch to cool of a little bit. Picking up his spoon Link runs it through his side dish of some sort of soup. Resting his left elbow with on the table top he just hopes Hyrule has been unharmed, and that Princess Zelda is doing well.

"I think it would have been a great idea had this place at least had some video games, and or something to do while we have our little free time."

Shaking his head Link couldn't agree more, a little bit of entertainment could at least make their stay here a little bit more manageable. After all they really shouldn't even be here any way; their group never actually committed a crime. If there will be any finger pointing, it'll have to be at both the Shredder and Ganondorf. Gaining the trust of King Ghamphiz is what ultimately lead up to them being imprisoned here.

"Hey...would either of you like to buy some magazines?" Someone asks tapping Michelangelo over his shell.

Both the mutated turtle and Hylian turn their attention to this person not recognizing him one bit. But with the several inmates in this place it comes as no surprise.

"Maybe another time pal, neither of us are interested." Mikey replies speaking for them both.

Shrugging his shoulders the tall muscular inmate walks off in the other direction. That is probably the only good thing about being in this place, is that you can earn coins for doing different things; which can get you an extra cold drink or whatever you so choose. There are several things one can do to earn these coins, such as good behavior, extra work etc. But what Mikey finds to be amazing, but at the same time really strange is how they jumped from one dimension to another and the inhabitants here speak the same language! It's really quiet incredible and something to think about.

Ion Mountain

Those who aren't working help with setting up chairs and tables for the birthday of Deanna. Both Raphael and Bruce just stand off to the side, neither of them feeling very comfortable. After what just happened with some of King Ghamphiz's closes followers it is best they don't let their guard down even for a second. The two of them were told to watch their backs, which is something they're taking very serious.

"Ghee why don't the two of you just relax. I'm excellent at reading people, and the two of you are way to tense." Linla says walking up in front of them.

Both Raph and Bruce just seem to stare at her with Raphael crossing his arms. Keeping at this for a few moments it is the turtle who cracks half a smile. Out of he and his brothers, most would probably proclaim he is the most emotionless of them; but that is totally un true. Sometimes it can be hard for someone to understand his (or) her feelings toward others, or in this case his feelings for her! Yes he has barely just met Linla, but there is something about her that just makes him feel all warm and fuzzy inside! For him that is a really awkward feeling; but he thinks he likes it.

"You don't have to worry about us...We're going to try and make sure your big sis's birthday is a good one; and that means without any uninvited guests." Raphael replies after a long silence.

With a certain glare in her eyes she moves forward wrapping her arms around Raph holding him tight. This action by her makes him feel a bit uncomfortable due to the fact he really isn't one for much affection; but coming from her he really doesn't mind.

"I'm glad the two of you are here, you truly don't know how thankful we all are." She says.

Finally breaking her grasp from him she steps back looking at them both, wondering if they were sent from the heavens. The way she has been brought up and taught, is that things happen for a reason. Maybe Raphael and Bruce didn't just arrive here by accident! Really though none of that matters right now, today is all about her Sister.

"I've got something I need to do, but I'll see the two of you shortly." Linla says before walking off.

Raphael waves watching her travel in the other direction opposite to them. At some point they may be able to take it easy, but for now they must stay on the look out just incase the guys they encountered return with a quick attack expecting them to be off guard.

"So what are we going to do about getting the others out? Does what just happened with those followers of Ghamphiz change anything?" Raphael asks.

Turning to Raphael, Bruce shakes his head informing that won't be the case at all.

"Just as we had planned, we'll get them out tonight. After we get that accomplished, I'm not sure what the immediate follow up actions will be. At the moment It would be hard to say if your enemy known as the Shredder is still in this world."

Overhearing their conversation is Deanna who sets down a few plates over one of the tables walking over in their direction. With the arrival of them, for the first time in a long time there might be hope for the people of this kingdom to start living normal lives.

"Sorry for eavesdropping, but you're all welcomed to stay here until you figure out whatever it is you need. My father does know some people that could help with your efforts to free your friends if you'd like." Deanna tells.

Both reply by telling her that the extra help will not be needed, but thank her for having her home open to them. Just then someone calls out for her; looking over her shoulder she smiles to see two of her closes friends Kayla and Vayz.

"Happy Birthday Deanna, it's good to see you," Kayla walks forward giving her a hug, "Who're your friends?"

Turning around Deanna introduces the four of them to one another. After doing so Deanna grabs Bruce by his wrist leading him away toward the tables telling Raphael and her friends to follow. After a few steps she lets go of his wrist with the three of them following her lead. Both Raph and Bruce move at a slow pace letting the ladies get ahead of them.

"Well I guess Linla and Deanna aren't the only beauty's around!" Raphael whispers to Bruce.

Bruce does not reply verbally but he does shake his head agreeing. Both Kayla and Vayz are very attractive. Hopefully they're all able to get through this day without any more problems, especially anything which involves the King.

Hyrule

Outside the outer edges of Hyrule castle is Ganondorf who marches alongside Ganondorf with the small portion of his army of 400 at their side. Getting closer and closer to their destination several Hyrule civilians are taken down which try and fight them off.

"This might end up being a lot easier than I originally thought." Ghamphiz says.

Continuing to move forward the Gerudo King is nothing but anxious, ready to get this over with. For the first time ever, he'll finally be the true ruler of Hyrule. Worrying about that being taken away will no longer be a problem, seeing that the only one with the power to stop him is no longer an issue; the only thing the hero of time is now is history, along with a bad memory which he's glad to finally be rid of.

"Ready yourself men, we're coming up on the castle now! I'm not sure if they have been informed of our arrival, so be sure to stay on guard."

Coming up over a hill the castle is in sight, but it doesn't appear the royal family has any idea that they're coming or even the security of the family. Having the element of surprise is always nice, but in this given situation they really don't need it. After some time they make their way up to the front entrance, with everyone just standing in place.

"So how do you suppose we'll get in...by knocking maybe?" King Ghamphiz asks Ganondorf.

Looking up into the night sky, half a smile grows on the face of Ganon knowing that this moment is the perfect opportunity to test out his upgraded magical abilities due to the Triforce of the other world. Feeling the great dark power within him, he powers up creating a huge energy ball which he uses to easily blow down the door! Stepping forward Ganondorf is the first of them to enter, with the others following close behind. But it isn't long before a large group of the Hyrule step in the way of them continuing any further!

"Now this should be fun." Ganondorf says with a smile.
