Not meaning to brag, or anything, but.....

Once, a Hellhound was chasing me. I tripped and fell, and the Hellhound was bounding up to me. Just before she reached me, I said, "Wait! Let's make a wager." "Yes, and what would that be?" I stood up, pointed to the nearby Amazoness village, and said, "If I can run straight through the middle of the village, you have to let me go. If I fail, then you can come rescue me and look cool because you saved me." "Hmmmm.....Okay. I'll give you a ten-second head start. If you dodge all the Amazonesses AND outrun me, I'll let you go. Ten....." she says with a smile.

I immediately tore at the village. I ran through some roads, undoubtedly getting some attention, then clambered up to the rooftops. They seemed to just follow on the ground.....and then I hear the Hellhound, dashing across the roofs. "She's already here?" I ask, unbelieving. I spot a chimney and duck behind it, before jumping down to the alleyway below. The Hellhound lumbers on above me, still on the rooftops. I fabricate a Hookshot and run with it, getting mixed looks from the Amazonesses and their husbands.

The end is nearly in sight....The village ends just up ahead....Four hundred metres....Three hundred metres....An arrow flies past my face, but I pay no heed....One hundred metres....Yes! I Hookshot up into a tree, panting heavily. I ran through an Amazoness village! "ICARUS, get a Rauser over here," I say into my PDA on my wrist, gesturing to the Hellhound. "Hah! Nobody even touched me!" I say victoriously, turning away from the Hellhound. "Oh really? I don't think so..." I duck, swinging my arm up at another tree. I Hookshot up, and I watch the Hellhound fall into a bush.

That is the story of how I survived an Amazoness village.
