Midna’s slippers papped against the ground in rapid fire as they carried her through the woods, broken occasionally when the princess reached the top of a slope and the princess took advantage of her new sliding power to scoot down it for extra speed, then using a slam of her shadow hand into the ground behind her to rapidly push herself back to her feet. While part of this was for efficiency and getting to the distressed person as fast as possible, some of it was to keep ahead of the other so they didn't see her getting used to being so slippery on the ground. 

Two close encounters with trees later and a bit more experience in handling like she was on running on ice later and the princess skidded out from the candy woods and found herself faced with a town. Not just any town, no in this land of sweets it was, of course, built to be tantalizingly edible. Midna supposed that if everything else was made of food, you kind of had to build your home out of it, but it still didn't seem like the best building material. If you tried to heat your home you’d just melt it and-

The princess’s analysis of the viability of living like this was cut short when she noticed the actual occupants of the town and they, in turn, noticed her.

The first was an unwilling guest and the source of the distressed calling: a fairy, or so Midna assumed  based on her wings. Possibly a rather powerful one, if the rules of Hyrule applied elsewhere. Then again, she was stuck in a cage, so perhaps not. 

Her captors were also hard to miss. Two titanic robots, who had been patrolling the town square and guarding the caged fairy, paused their wandering when the woman started shouting and turned to look at her. Just. Looked at her. Which was odd considering they where designed like the other robots who had been very aggressive. Maybe, Midna thought, it was because they just didn't want to leave their posts to come attack her. The princess stared back at them for a few moments, then glanced over her shoulder and realized that she’d left her allies in the dust. If they were coming at all. Taking on those titans was something she thought she could do if she had too, but she also really didn't want to find herself sliding right into the path of one of their human sized fists if she could avoid it.

She could simply wait of course, the fairy was distressed but not actively in danger locked up like that, but that level of inaction didn't sit right with her after she’d put the effort in to hurry over here quickly as she had. Still charging right in to fight them wasn't the be all and end all of what she could do in this situation either, so instead she decided to take a sneakier approach.

Without a word she stepped back into the shade of the candy forest and then vanished from sight, leaving behind a few rapidly decaying square motes of twilight magic. She reappeared in the shadow of a chocolate straw chimney on one of the houses on the far side of the square, putting her behind the robots that had been looking at her, and then sliding down the back of the roof so she was completely out of sight of them even if they turned around. From there she’d make a quick scout of the town to make sure there weren't any surprises hiding in all the houses, like, say, lots of little bots lying in ambush, and then wait to see if a ‘distraction’ was going to show up or not before she made a her move.

If they were a no show, then, well, she could always make her own.
