Stepping from the shadows, Link and Neji saw a couple people with really... Interesting outfits. It was bright red colored suits. To top it all off, they were wearing sombreros.
Link and Neji looked at one another, thinking this was some kind of prank instead of an enemy attack. But despite their ridiculous appearance, they had Princess Zelda.
Link turned towards the two mysterious people standing before them. "Who are you?"
The two mysterious people smirked, pressing their backs against each other while speaking in the most heaviest accent you could ever imagine.
"Prepare for trouble."
"And make it double."
Not expecting that to come out of their mouths, Link slow blinked in response. "What the f-"
"Link!" Neji exclaimed. "There's a child present!"
"What child?!"
"Me!"
Getting somewhat annoyed about everything that was happening right now, Link let out a sigh. "Just tell us who you are, and your motives for capturing the princess."
"Party pooper, aren't we?" One of then spoke up. "Let's just cut to the chase then. We're from an organization called Team Vermilion. Our lovely boss wanted us to capture Princess Zelda for a negotiation."
"Negotiation for what..?"
"To buy a huge chunk of land for our future oil factory! Think about it! This land will be rich if we produced a lot of oil! All the other lands will come crawling to us!"
Princess Zelda let out a sigh. "That's why I don't wish to go through with that."
"Why?! It will help you too, Princess!"
"No. It won't. It will only cause pollution, endanger the wildlife, and eventually overcome a huge portion of Hyrule. I don't want Hyrule to look like an oil field in five years!"
"That's why you need to come with us so our boss can persuade you." One of them forced Zelda on her feet. Her hands were still bind by dark shackles.
Feeling his blood boil, Link readied his sword. "Let her go."
One of the grunts started laughing. "What are you going to do about it?"
Link shifted his eyes towards Neji. "Hey kid. Will you back me up?"
Neji nodded. "You got it."
Link vanished from sight, earning the surprised expressions from the Vermilion grunts. Since they were distracted by Link sudden disappearance, Neji saw an opportunity to attack.
Running towards the Vermilion grunts, Neji had his sword pointing straight. He widened his eyes for effect. "Byakugan!" The grunts looked confused, standing their guard. Once Neji got close to them, he stuck his tongue out. "Just kidding! I just made that up!"
