Chapter 1 - Episode 6: Link Between Worlds

(The episode begins in a small bedroom of sorts. We cut to an overview of the bed in the room to see Link, without his hat, sound asleep. He slowly starts to wake up and sits up in the bed. He looks around.)

Link: Huh? Where am I? (We go to Link's thought sequence, similar to Red's. It shows Link going to Hyrule Castle before the sky goes dark with Link turning around to look at it. We go back to the real world.) Zelda! (We hear a high pitched giggling as Link looks off to the bedroom door and sees a little girl. She hurries off leaving Link confused.)

(We cut to a kitchen area with the little girl and who is presumably her father looking down at her. These are two original characters: Mr. Yamamoto and Akari. Link silently walks in.)

Yamamoto: (To Akari.) Have you been spying on our house guest again?

Akari: He's up! I saw him wake up!

Yamamoto: (Frustrated.) Akari... (Notices Link.) Oh. Hello there. I didn't see you come in.

Link: Ummm, hello there. My name is Link.

Yamamoto: I am Hiro Yamamoto. This is my daughter Akari.

Akari: (Shyly.) Hello there. Are you a prince?

Link: Huh?

Yamamoto: Akari believes you are a prince from a faraway land.

Akari: We found you in the alley by our apartment. Did an evil monster send you here? Is there a princess you need to save?

Yamamoto: Now Akari...

Link: Actually yes. I am from the land of Hyrule and I was visiting the Princess Zelda when I ended up here.

Akari: I told you dad!

Yamamoto: I guess the sword and shield make more sense then. Oh, these are yours. (He points to Link's hat, the Master Sword, and the Hylian Shield on a table. Link grabs them.)

Link: Well, if you will excuse me, I must go. Thank you for your hospitality. (Link leaves.)

Akari: Bye Link! Come back sometime to tell me some stories.

Yamamoto: Hmmm, New York could use a hero.

(We cut to Link walking out of the apartment building and looking around. He starts down the sidewalk.)

(We cut to a comic book shop. Inside of it are some regular civilians and also Sketch Turner (Comix Zone). We also see another hero: Joe. He's looking at comic books.)

Joe: What even are these superheroes. None of them compare to Captain Blue. I mean, "Batman"? "Superman"? What kinds of names are these?

Gex: (Walks up beside Joe.) I know right. These people have no idea how to make characters. (Joe looks surprised.) What? Do I know you or something?

Joe: No no! It's... uhhh... nothing. (Joe exits the shop.) Man, does this place have anything fun? (An ice cream truck drives around the corner past the shop.) I guess I could use a treat. (Joe runs off after it.)

(We cut again to the outside of a mall where Frank West is being hauled out by security guards.)

Frank: I'm tellin' ya! I don't know how I got into your storage area! I just woke up!

Guard: Yeah yeah! Beat it, old timer! (They go back into the mall.)

Frank: Old timer! What do they know. I've covered wars. (He takes out his camera and looks around.) Now what the h*ll is this place anyway. (He sees Link through his camera.) One of these things is not like the other. That guy'll help me out. (He starts walking across the street towards Link. Behind Link is Garrett (Thief) who notices a pouch of rupees on Link's belt. Garrett swiftly goes up to Link, takes his pouch of rupees, and runs away. Frank comes up behind Link.) Hey th- (Link runs in pursuit of Garrett.) Hey! Wait! (Frank runs after Link.)

(We cut to many different shots of Garrett, Link, and Frank running through the city. Garrett and Link seem to be farther ahead than Frank. Eventually, Link takes out his hookshot and grapples Garrett with it, which drags him back towards Link. Garrett pulls out a dagger and swings it at Link who barely dodges. Frank sees this and the camera pans to Power Pro Kun (Power Pro) watching with his baseball bat and mitt on the ground. Frank takes the bat.)

Frank: Sorry kid! It's important! (He runs toward the fight. Power Pro Kun grunts angrily.)

(Garrett kicks Link onto the ground but Frank hits Garrett with the bat and he's knocked onto the ground. Garrett sweeps Frank's legs and he lands on the ground. Link gets up and slashes Garrett with the master sword. He then does a spin attack. Frank gets up and he and Link surrounded Garrett. They rush him but Garrett kicks down Frank and blocks Link's sword with his own that he pulls out. He pushes Link back and kicks him down. By now, a crowd of people is watching.)

(Suddenly, the ice cream truck from before pulls up and stops near our heroes. An unknown figure gets out. We cut and see that it is Sweet Tooth with a shotgun. He shoots and hits Garrett in the head, killing him.)

Sweet Tooth: Aaawww. Did I ruin your fun? (He starts shooting more people while laughing maniacally. Frank gets up drowsily and Sweet Tooth aims his gun for him. As soon as he shoots, Link gets up and blocks the bullet with his shield.) So you wanna play hero huh? Okay, let's play.

(Sweet Tooth throws his gun on the ground and pulls out a machete. He lunges at Link and swipes at him. Link blocks the blows with his shield. Link lands a couple blows with his sword but Sweet Tooth rams into Link, throwing him on the ground.)

Frank: (Off camera.) Hey! Chuckles! (An empty bottle hits Sweet Tooth in the face.) How do you like that!

Sweet Tooth: That was a mistake buddy. (Sweet Tooth pulls out a molotov and throws it at Frank, knocking him to the ground. Frank gets up and hits Sweet Tooth with his bat. Sweet Tooth gets ready to use his machete but his arm is caught by Link's hookshot. But instead of Sweet Tooth being pulled back, he pulls Link toward him with the hookshot. Link falls to the ground but as soon as he gets up, Sweet Tooth stabs him in the chest and Link falls to the ground.)

Frank: Holy sh*t!

Sweet Tooth: You're next pal. (Sweet Tooth quickly runs over to Frank and kicks him to the ground, and then delivers a kick to his stomach. Frank is on the ground, not able to get up. Sweet Tooth is about to kill him.) No, I have a better idea.

(We go to Sweet Tooth putting Frank in the back of the ice cream truck. As soon as that happens, Joe turns the corner to see what's happening.)

Joe: Woah! What the?!

(Sweet Tooth gets back in his van but then we cut back to Link. A fairy has appeared from presumably his pocket and has revived him.)

Link: (Getting up.) Urgh. Huh? (Sweet Tooth gets in his van and starts it up.) Hey! (Link picks up his hookshot and hooks it to the top of the truck. The van starts going and takes Link with it. He screams. A small crowd has formed after the truck has gone, most of them with their phones out. Joe walks up in front of the crowd.)

Joe: Hmmm, looks like an audience to me. Attention everyone! (The crowd looks toward Joe.) Lights! Camera! (Joe activates his v-watch and transforms into Viewtiful Joe.) Action! (To crowd.) No need to worry ladies and gentlemen! I'll handle this! (Joe runs off.)

(We go back into Sweet Tooth's truck. Frank starts getting up, clutching his stomach.)

Sweet Tooth: Up already?

Frank: Shut it clown!

Sweet Tooth: That wasn't very nice. (He puts a cinder block on the gas pedal.) Guess I'll have to take care of you myself! (Sweet Tooth gets up and goes back to Frank.)

(Sweet Tooth grabs a chainsaw off of the floor and starts it. He swings it a couple times at Frank, who barely dodges each time. Frank holds up his camera.)

Frank: Smile! (He flashes the camera at Sweet Tooth who covers his eyes.)

Sweet Tooth: Why you... (Suddenly, everything is in slow motion. Viewtiful Joe is seen out of the windshield in midair.)

Joe: Slooooooooooow! (Joe crashes through the windshield and kicks Sweet Tooth in the face. Sweet Tooth's body hits the back door.) Haha! Gotcha!

Frank: Who the h*ll are you?!

Joe: Viewtiful Joe. Professional hero. (Joe looks through the broken window.) Is that a building in front of us?

Frank: Huh? (It's a building.) Jesus! (Frank grabs the steering wheel and fiercely turns left. Outside, Link is flung into the buildings but uses his shield like a snowboard and glides on the walls. He then lands on top of the truck. Joe hears this.)

Joe: What was that? (Sweet Tooth starts getting up. He starts towards Joe until Link jumps down onto the truck hood.)

Frank: Jesus Christ! (Link shoots an arrow into Sweet Tooth's arm.)

Sweet Tooth: (Taking out arrow.) You're alive?

Joe: (To Sweet Tooth.) You're alive?

(Link runs at Sweet Tooth and delivers a blow to him with his sword. Joe kicks Sweet Tooth into the wall.)

Joe: Red hot kick!

Sweet Tooth: I'll show you hot! (Sweet Tooth breathes fire at Joe. He dodges but his cape catches on fire.)

Joe: No no no! Not the cape! (Joe desperately tries to put it out until Sweet Tooth kicks him into a wall.) Ugh! Uncool man.

(Suddenly a boomerang hits Sweet Tooth and Link catches it. Sweet Tooth starts toward Link but Link bashes him with his shield, knocking him to the ground. Link points his sword to Sweet Tooth's throat.)

Link: Gotcha!

Frank: Okay good! Now help me with this cinder block. He put it on the gas pedal.

Sweet Tooth: Not so fast! (He pulls out a stick of dynamite and lights it with his fire breath.) So Long! (He laughs maniacally and we see the ice cream truck explode and it lands on its side. Police sirens are heard in the distance.)

(We cut to Frank on the ground near the truck.)

Frank: Ugh, I'm... alive? (He gets up.) Where are the rest? (He sees Link and Joe, still in the truck. There's more dynamite in the truck.) Oh sh*t. (Frank quickly goes and drags Joe from out of the truck. He's unconscious. When he's out, Frank starts dragging Link but while he is the truck explodes again and Frank and Link are sent flying. Joe wakes up.)

Joe: Huh? Did we do it?

Frank: I don't know. He wasn't in the truck.

Link: (Waking up.) Ugh! We're still alive.

Frank: Yeah. I had to save you two.

Link: Thank you.

Frank: No problem. I've covered wars y'know.

(Police cars pull up and the police chief walks up to our heroes.)

Chief: Do you people know anything about this?

Frank: Mad clown attack. Not the first time I've dealt with this.

Chief: And do you all know anything about the uhhh... giant turtle attack in Albany?

Joe: Giant turtle?

Link: Hmmm...

Frank: What?

Link: Perhaps these incidents are linked to what brought us here.

Chief: Brought you he-?

Frank: Ha! I knew you were brought here by that weird darkness!

Joe: Then let's gooooo! (They head off.)

Chief: Wait come ba-! (He sighs.)

Joe: (Turning around.) Oh! And officer!

Chief: What?

Joe: The name's Joe! Viewtiful Joe! And I'm better than Superman! (He runs off.)

Chief: (Shaking his head.) Only in New York.

(The camera pans back and we see Sweet Tooth hiding in an alleyway, laughing.)
