"Green!" Purple yelled scaring Green.

"Whaaat!" Green cried angrily.

"I was just going to tell you that we've been passing that same bush ten times already, and I'm pretty sure that we've been walking in circles for the past five minutes."

"Well, do you have any ideas on how to get out of here?"

"I know!" Red yelled pointing at some vines that someone cleverly covered with vines, "what about those vines that are covering the door." Everyone stared at him, then at the door, then at Red again.

"Okay now everyone help me tear the vines off the door." Blue told the others as he started to tear off the vines.

"Or," Purple said, "we can knock the vines down with our boomerangs."

"Or we could do that." Blue agreed.

They all pulled out their boomerangs and threw them at the door, and sure enough the vines came down hitting the ground. The Mikes opened the door together because it was heavy and it didn't have a doorknob. They went through the door and found a room with a treasure chest in the middle of it. Blue dashed towards the treasure chest so that he could open it, but the others tried to stop him. As soon as Blue got to the chest, it disappeared. Blue stepped back while drawing out his sword waiting for someone or something to attack. Green, Red, and Purple pulled out their swords and rushed towards Blue.

"Mwah-hah-hah-hah-ha." Somebody laughed, "it seems as if someone has stumbled upon my lair."

The Mikes looked around but saw nobody. "Look up you idiots!" The voice yelled impatiently, the Mikes looked up and saw a silhouette that looked just like them. Green froze and remembered something Vaati said earlier.

"Guys," Green said, "I think that this silhouette is a shadow clone."

"Good eye Green," The shadow clone said as if he were surprised, "but since you all have your own 'special' names according to the clothes you wear I shall be called 'Dark' or 'Black' whichever you would prefer to call me."

"Okay 'Dark' let's dance!" Blue shouted.

Dark leaped down from where he was standing, pulled out his sword, and multiplied into four copies of himself and started to battle the four heroes. Nobody could figure out which clone was the real one; until Red pointed out that the main clone was still on the platform. The main clone jumped down from his platform and performed a spin attack causing his clones to disappear, and knocking the heroes back Blue and Red were unconscious and Green was hurt badly but he was still able to walk.

Purple was furious, so he took out his sword and charged at Dark slashing him on his right side making Dark fall. Dark stood up, he looked at the heroes and walked towards Green, who fell face flat on the ground. Dark raised up his sword pointing the tip down and hanging it over Green. Red found some sort of rod and charged up power in the rod and swung it causing a beam of fire appearing from the jewel at the tip of the rod. The beam of fire hit Dark causing him to fly backwards.

Dark stood up. "You are more powerful than I expected," he said, "but nothing compared to my master, you have still a ways to go. I would not be surprised that if you make it to Vaati's lair that you would already have collected all of the sacred weapons. But that doesn't mean I won't try to stop you." Dark disappeared just as Vaati did at the realm of the four sword. The heroes ran over to Green to see if he was alright. Green had a deep scratch on his side and there was blood leaking out of it. Blue and Purple picked Green up while Red opened the treasure chest that reappeared when Dark left. There was a bow and a quiver, just as he put his bow in his bag everyone else had a bow and quiver in his bag.

"We need to find a place to heal Green or we'll never finish our quest," Purple exclaimed as they headed out of the forest, "but where?" Ten minutes later Red found a pebble on the ground and threw it at Blue who almost dropped Green's head. "RED!" Blue yelled angrily, "This is no time for messing around; you almost made me drop Green."

"Sorry." Red said shamefully, hanging his head down.
