Parkour! (Big Bad Bazz Brigade)
This is based off of the parkour scene from The Office!
Thank you @hey-llison for inspiring me!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The sky above was a pale pink hue fading to midnight blue as dawn broke over the luminous structure of Zora’s Domain. Gentle coo’s of mourning doves mixed with the sound of water moving across the domain and down the local waterfalls added to the peaceful ambiance. The sound of clinking metal echoed across the stone structure as a particular captain made his way to work.
Bazz yawned, still worn out from the long night he pulled prior. The training reports for the newest addition of guards had taken longer than he had anticipated much to the dismay of Muzu. One of the new recruits managed to get lost on his first round of surveying the local river system. Poor kid, it was easy to get turned around when you didn’t study the maps enough. As Captain of The Guard, Bazz declared himself responsible for the trainee and sought to it himself to locate him. It took a bit longer than expected, but the trainee was found safe and sound and promptly brought back to the domain.
The lock on the door to the Captain’s office cla-clinked as Bazz turned the key.
Plopping himself and his stack of folders down at his desk, Bazz picked up right where he left off yesterday.
Scribble. Check. Dip quill in ink. Scribble. Check. Dip quill in ink. Scribble. Check-
Bazz groaned. He had been at it for hours now, the early hours of dawn lifting into early afternoon. He had skipped his lunch, only leaving his office to ensure his guards were keeping to their schedules as given. All seemed to be in order. Not a single guard out of pl-
The door to Bazz’s office slams open.
Bazz looks up in time to see a rust colored zora dash at him at top speed, flipping himself up onto Bazz’s desk. The Zora rolled himself over the desk, knocking paperwork, folders, and ink bottles across the floor, before landing against Bazz’s chest and pushing the Captain backwards in his chair onto the ground.
Bazz recovers quickly, glaring down the Zora.
“What. The. FUCK. Rivan!?”
Rivan’s cat-like yellow eyes looked deep into Bazz’s, face just inches away and devoid of any particular emotion- a stark contrast to pissed expression on the Captain’s. He mutters something, but Bazz did not catch it.
Taken aback, Bazz watches his childhood friend jump up off the floor and sprint out of his office, flipping over the debris and somersaulting out the door. Bazz’s eye twitches as he observed the mess of his usually neat and tidy office. He growls, getting up and fixing his helm. He grabs his silverscale spear and chases after his friend.
Rivan dashed through the marble hallways, occasionally flipping over decorative tables and vases, and bouncing off the walls going around corners. He was awfully energetic and carefree despite the sight of the captain chasing after him.
“C’mon, Bazz!! You gotta do the moves too!” Rivan shouted over his shoulder.
Bazz scrunched his face in confusion.
Rivan did another flip over one of the intricately etched designs on the luminous floor.
Bazz followed, pulling a flip over the same design before continuing his chase. They dashed around several more corners and leapt down a flight of stairs, not touching a single step. At one point Bazz swore he saw a flash of red and heard it squeak in surprise as he passed a hall. Was that Laflat? Tula? Hell, it could have been Kapson. He shrugged to himself and he kept his eyes on his friend. He increased his speed and swiftly grabbed the end of Rivan’s head tail, yanking him back.
“eeEOWWwwww okay!!! Damn!” The rusty brown Zora gave in, stopping in his tracks. “You don’t have to give me whiplash, Cap.”
Bazz shook his head, crossing his arms and giving Rivan a look clearly prompting him to explain himself. Rivan rolled his eyes and grinned before opening his mouth, but before he could get a word out a flash of grayish-lilac zipped over the boys.
Que the slow motion action scene.
Bazz and Rivan’s jaws dropped as they look up the lock eyes with Gaddison, currently flipping over their heads. Her grin could only be described as snarky.
Gaddison landed perfectly on the other side of her friends, looking up with nothing but challenge in her eyes.
Muzu stretched lightly, groaning something about his arthritis. That meeting was far too long, and they really needed to reupholster the meeting room chairs. He walked alongside King Dorephan and Prince Sidon, both stretching a bit themselves.
“Well, I think that meeting went well. It’s not everyday Seggin and Trello get through a meeting without bickering,” Sidon cracked his shoulders. The two were old friends, but bickered like a married couple.
“Mmh..yes. Though you must admit, it can be entertaining to watch them go at it like cuckoos.” Dorephan stifled a chuckle when he caught Muzu’s annoyed look.
“My king, don’t encourage your son to gossip!” Muzu shook his head. Sidon hid his eye roll and shared a glance with his father, both royals were used to Muzu’s antics.
“My apologies, Muzu,” Dorephan started, “Let’s move on. Have you had the chance to speak with Dento about the blueprints for the new- I’m sorry what??”
King Dorephan’s attention was suddenly elsewhere, jaw slack in shock. Muzu and Sidon quickly followed his eyes, only to see the most unusual sight.
Gaddison, Bazz, and Rivan were chasing each other, flipping over objects and jumping off ledges. At one point, Bazz backflipped over Tumbo. The young Zora clapped and cheered, clearly excited to be a part of the fun. All the while, the trio shouted “parkour” as they did stunts across the domain.
Muzu scoffed, “Hylia! Those three have no tact! Surely you’d think the Captain himself would never lower to such standards!”
Dorephan had to stifle another laugh, as he watched the three jump around like fleas. Those three had always been rambunctious. What did they used to call themselves as guppies? Ah, yes. The Big Bad Bazz Brigade.
“Don’t you even think about joining them, your hig- hEY!!!” Muzu shrieked, glaring at where the prince once stood.
Dorephan lowered his eyes, looking at the blank spot next to him where Sidon was standing just a minute ago. He heard a cacophony in the direction of the Big Bad Bazz Brigade, indicative of a new friend joining the chaos.

I Hope you liked this! This is the first short fic I’ve written! I had fun with this!
I wasn’t sure how to describe Gaddison’s color, as she appears gray in post of the pictures of her but I know the colors in the domain are a bit muddled from the rain! I only knew Rivan was actually a rusty brown when I saw him in the sunlight!
