While Tora wasn't enraptured by the rabbit heroes strange weapon for long, Linkle was very interested in it. It was basically some kind of bomb, but not one that she had ever heard of before. Not even in the legends had she ever heard of some kind of poison bomb. Not surprising, it was hardly what you could call a heroic weapon. Watching him play around with it with such child like energy and joy, though, she couldn't help but laugh. When they weren't shooting at you these guys were surprisingly endearing.

"I think I know what happened." She said after considering the situation. "Sometimes, when you find two groups of monsters fighting it out, if you start helping one side the other one will join your army out of gratitude. At least for a little bit. So I bet our friends started helping out the rabbits, and that made the whole group friendly." She nodded to herself and the long white ears on top of her hood drooped down in front of her face. She reached out and gripped one between her fingers. "Or maybe it'd because I'm wearing this?" She shrugged and flipped the ears back. 

The three continued on after the rabbit until Tora called for a break. Linkle could keep going, but then again she couldn't remember a time when she'd been tired. The little guy then asked a question that she was surprised no one had asked yet, and Linkle jumped on it. "Oh, Hyrule is the best. It's full of lush green forests, beautiful clear rivers, fields where the breeze always blows just hard enough to keep you nice and cool. A paradise built by the godessess for any people who are willing to live with and cherish the land, from Lake Hylia to Death Mountain!" She threw out her arms to emphasize the great size of the Kingdome, then brought them back together. "At least, that's how grandma always described it. I'd never been out of the village before my first adventure and I didn't get to see a lot of the peaceful Hyrule. I ran into a lot of things my Grandma had never described before while on the road to the castle. There was this forest full of stalphos where an imp in a creepy mask stole my compass, an old temple in the middle of a lake, this big pit where I was fought this strange purple guy, and even this place where it was always sunset. Shadow people lived there, and one of them helped me rescue Princess Zelda from this insane shadow man."

She folded her arms and sighed sadly. "By the time I made it to the castle it was about to fall to the forces of darkness. I thought after I took care of that I could finally see the peaceful Hyrule grandma told me stories about, but then this all happened." She looked around, and seemed to suddenly realize that she had lost her some of her peppy, never say die energy. She smacked herself on the cheeks a few times and perked herself back up. "But that's okay! The reason Hyrule is so peaceful is that whenever disasters like this rear their ugly heads the Legendary Hero is always there to put everything right again. This time, that's me! So I'll just take my grand tour after we settle this mess."

Linkle couldn't help but agree with Tora's complaints about having to hide. She really starting to get sick of it. She watched from relative safety as the rabbit army was decimated by the two robots that flanked the helmeted man. It looked like her earlier idea had been right and that the other group had swung the battle in the rabbits favor and if it were up to her she would have been right up there with them, diving into the thick of it. Instead she was here, taking cover again.

Tora separated from her and Minako, spotting his chance to advance while the turrets were distracted with the rabbits and taking his shot. This had the unfortunate effect of attracting one of the turrets attention and it began harrying him as he tried to move from cover to comer.

But now they had a problem. One gun was focusing on Tora, the other was finishing off the rabbits. Neither was looking at them. She looked over the the heroic green rabbit that they had followed over here, and the poison puddles his weapon created. She looked back up at how close together all three of their enemies were. "Hey." She called to the rabbit while dispensing a bomb from her holstered crossbows. She held it out to him, pointed to the bomb in his hand, then jerked her thumb at the turret nest the engineer had set up. She waved her arm at him to come one, then vaulted her cover and started sprinting at the turrets hoping her would follow. She had to get him close enough before the rest of those rabbits were completely gone or, barring that, act as a distraction herself so he could float that whole area in poison purple too.

Unluckily the rabbit army didn't seem to be doing so hot as the turret fired it's missiles into the midst again, but that's when Linkle felt the turret come into sharp focus. There, she could see it! It was like a shield hovering over the top of the turret. It's big attack had left it vulnerable. She doubled her effort, spreading up as she came into range. She threw her bomb, but not just the one. She reached down and suspended another bomb from the crossbows, then another, and another, tossing a whole cluster of bombs primarily at the rocket shooting turret to try and do enough damage to knock it off kilter so she could move in for the kill before they refocused their attention on her.
