"What…? Where…?" Link muttered, attempting to get up. He almost cried out in sheer horror when he stood up; on all fours.
"Why am I like this?" He howled. "What happened? Someone tell me… Wait… Where's Faye?"
"Right here. Stop panicking, you'll just make yourself worse." She whispered silently.
Link took a moment to collect his thoughts together. He looked down upon himself, as he whimpered quietly.
"We're wolves." Faye noted. "Please Link, don't worry yourself over this."
Link walked over to Faye, but was halted, by the chains holding him in place. He sighed.
"Yeah. Don't worry yourself over it." A new voice mimicked.
"Who's there?" Faye and Link shouted simultaneously.
"Heh…"
A small, dark figure jumped out of the worst of the darkness.
"I'll help you… If you're gonna help me."
"Why should we help you?" Faye inquired.
"Because I'll help you. Is that simple enough for you?"
"Humph."
"Sure, as long as you get us out of here!" Link begged.
"You humans are so stupidly obedient."
Faye growled at the small imp.
"Oh, looks like we got a wild one here, eh?"
The small creature summoned a ball of black energy and threw it at the chains holding Link and Faye.
"It's up to you to get out of the cell."
Link sniffed around, and found soft soil, suitable to dig through. the two wolves dug through the dirt and came face to face with the imp.
"I'm Link; and this is Faye."
"Whatever." She said, lifting her paw up, as if to say: Speak to the paw, 'cause the snout ain't listening.
"I'm Midna. And as you've promised, you are going to help me."
Midna jumped onto Link's back, riding him like a small horse. Link sighed.
"Where are we going?"
"Well, first we have to get out of these dungeons."
Faye ran in front of Link and Midna, sniffing the air, taking full advantage of her newfound abilities.
She smiled, and galloped off, through a hole in the wall. As the three walked through, Link noticed a strange hovering substance.
"What is that?"
"A spirit." Midna answered. "You can see it, if you use your senses, but it can't see you."
"It's a soldier." Faye mentioned.
"Midna, where are we?"
"If we can get out of here, I'll show you."
The two wolves looked around, at the dark, dank sewers they were standing in. Chains hung from the ceiling, and small shadowy creatures roamed the waters.
"I don't like this place one bit." Faye whimpered.
"If you're going to help me, you'd better get over yourself."
"Shut up, I've never been put into a situation like this before!"
"Stop arguing, you two! We need to work together to get out of here!"
Faye ran ahead of Midna and Link, soon after, they both heard violent attacking noises. Link ran toward the direction of the noise.
A pile of the shadow creatures lay in front of the she-wolf. Faye continued to growl, grinning, showing her sharp, pointed teeth.
"I've gotten over myself… Now, come on, I've found a way out."
Link walked beside Faye, who seemed to be enjoying herself. Midna pointed out the black scar on Faye's back leg, going half way down. It seemed to radiate a shadowy substance from it. Faye took no notice to the wound, so Midna decided against telling her it was there. It was just a cut, what harm could it do?
The female wolf led Link to a door, but they needed help to get through the window above the door.
"I can help you there." Midna muttered, as she whizzed to a sturdy foothold. The two wolves leaped up to the top, and exited the dungeons.
"Are we in Hyrule Castle?" Faye asked, pawing at the stone floor.
"Yup, and there's someone I want you to meet." Midna replied.
The quadrupeds followed the small, levitating imp.
"Aren't the black twilight clouds fetching today?" She noted.
"I personally prefer the white, fluffy ones myself." Link replied.
Midna led the wolves to a small opening, which they jumped up on, and went through. Up the spiralling staircase, there were a pair of wooden doors, and through them, was a hooded figure.
"Midna? You shouldn't be here. They're after you." The hooded figure mumbled.
"Sorry about that. I just thought you oughta meet these guys. They're not bad like, but they'll do."
"Oh, not that bad, eh? Well, I guess I'll take that as a compliment, coming from you." Faye muttered.
"So, I take it by the markings, this is the hero."
"Yup. He even has the triforce on his left paw."
"What are you two talking about?" Link asked.
"I'm sorry; I can't understand your tongue."
"What? We're speaking plain hylian!"
"No, you're barking." Midna noted.
"Well, how can you understand us?"
"Because I'm Midna. Let's keep it at that for now."
The hooded figure suddenly revealed herself; it was Princess Zelda.
"Whoa! Isn't that Zelda? I'm just confused now…" Faye muttered.
"It is me… Princess Zelda. I can see that you are both surprised."
"Well, you didn't have to go showing yourself this early, you know." Midna said.
"It's alright; you three just go, and save Hyrule from this twilight."
Midna rolled her eyes.
"The twilight isn't that bad you know. I personally don't see what all this light stuff is about anyway."
"Come on you guys; looks like we've got a new job to do!" Faye barked.
