Scene 10: In Unlikely Places
Link walks up to a pedestal in the middle of a dense forest, where he finds the Master Sword in its resting place. Navi follows close behind.
Navi: Hey! Listen! Hey! Listen! Hey! Listen!
Link motions to Navi to stop talking.
Link: Not now, Navi. I'm kind of having a moment here.
Navi: A moment? This is the 17th or 18th time you've obtained the Master Sword. Why not just keep it?
Link: It only works in times of great crisis, Navi, after which I have to return the sword for it to regain its power. And if the Three Goddesses are right…
Link grips the Master Sword tightly in both hands and slowly pulls on it. The Triforce of Courage resonates on his left hand as he removes the Master Sword from its pedestal and points it skyward.
Link: …this just may be our world's darkest hour yet.

Link walks past a tree stump, where Yoshi is sleeping peacefully. Navi leads the way.
Yoshi: (sleepily) No, really…I…I couldn't…eat another bite…
Suddenly, Navi stops in her tracks and starts beating her wings frantically.
Navi: Hey! Listen! Hey! Listen!
Link: What is it, Navi?
Navi: Hey! Look! Hey! Watch out!
Link turns around, then looks up and sees the Battleship Halberd overhead, surrounded by dark red clouds. It drops a swarm of Shadow Bugs that materialize into Primids all around Link and Navi.
Link: Navi, you might want to sit this one out. This could get ugly.
Navi disappears in a tiny flash of light, and Link readies the Master Sword and his shield in preparation for battle. Yoshi wakes up and walks toward Link.
Yoshi: Oh hi, Link. What brings you to—?
He notices the Primids and eyes them curiously.
Yoshi: Ooh. What are those things?
(later)
Link and Yoshi come to the edge of the forest, where they see the Halberd flying a great distance away. Link decides to head off someplace else in search of a way to catch up to the Halberd and starts running. Yoshi inquisitively follows.
Yoshi: Uh, Link, what are we doing?
Link stops running and turns to Yoshi.
Link: Oh, Yoshi, how long have you been following me?
Yoshi: Oh, I don't know. I just heard all this commotion while I was taking a nap and I thought I should investigate.
Link: Well, speaking of investigating, I happen to be on a mission to light our world's darkest hour.
Yoshi: Darkest hour? But it's still day time.
Link: It's just an expression. What I'm saying is that our world could be in big trouble right now, and if nobody else will do something about it, I will.
Yoshi: Ooh. Then count me in as well.
Link: (mildly amused) You? All you've ever done is run around like a chicken missing its head. What could you possibly—?
Suddenly, Yoshi extends his tongue, snatches Link's satchel off his belt with it, eats its contents, and spits out the satchel into his hand. Link looks into his satchel to find it completely empty.
Link: Oh yeah. I forgot.
Yoshi: So, am I in or not?
Link: Of course. Just try not to eat my lunch next time, okay?
Yoshi: Okay, but I can't make any promises.
Link and Yoshi resume running.
(later)
A cardboard box rests in the Halberd's brig.
