Displaced fic. A man gets transported to Equestria after buying an item from The Merchant. This item? Majora's Mask... And now I'm a floating mask.. What's going on?!

Being transported to another world is one thing. Having such a thing happen without me knowing, is another thing. But why.. Oh god why, do I have to be Majora's Mask? I don't even have a body!
How do I even start this!?

Must.. Keep.. Cool!

I can't focus..

And it's not because of the ungodly power being formed in front of me. No, its the screaming!

"We cannot die!" The voice continued to repeat that over.. And over.. Just screeching in my non-existent ears. No matter, I just need to figure out-

"We cannot die!" It screeched again.

..Just need to figure out how to get-

"We cannot die!"

Will you shut the fuck up?! I screamed at the voice. I heard my own thoughts echo around a bit, and all I heard after that was silence.. Was it gone? I hope so, my non-existent head was throbbing at the thought of more screeching..

Back to my old problem-

Bam!

My vision was sent careening through a wall, and another.. and- Was that a tree?! Jesus Christ! I was getting dizzy, still not quite used to seeing the world in full Three hundred Sixty degrees and spinning made my head.. Well, spin. I floated/stood back up- still getting used to the clunky movement system this thing has- and noticed the Two from earlier flying in the air above me.

Can everything in this world fly? I'm starting to wonder..

"What is this creation?" The Blue woman, I believe her name was Luna, asked the white one, Celestia. Huh, what creative parents they must have had.. Luna for the moon since her hair resembles the night sky and her fur was dark blue. And Celestia? If she was a boy would her name be Solaris? You cant get any more cliché than this! ..Oh, I'm rambling again.

"I don't know sister, but it doesn't look like its trying to hurt anypony." Celestia said to Luna. Ah.. So they are sisters. That explains so much..

I focused on everything I knew about my god-damned body. I could float, just like the Mask could in the game. I have its stupid dark magic, just like the game.. So does that mean?

Oh.. No no, no more hitting me! I ain't growing tentacles today! I've had enough bullshit to last me a lifetime happen today! Think, what else could it do?

...

I could always..

Would that work? How would it work?

Welp, I've got nothing to lose.. I sure hope I get a second chance at life after this crap.

I slowly floated closer to the Two sisters, keeping my use of magic down to a minimum.. I got to about Three feet in front of them. I noticed, that Celestia seemed to be more curious than anything else. She would probably be the best one to talk to, so I floated there, preparing myself.

"What do you think it want?" Celestia asked her sister. Luna was looking at me with a mix of disgust and wariness. Oh.. How I wish I didn't have to do this!

I willed the Mask to do what I wanted, and it shot towards Luna. All that escaped from her mouth was a surprised "Eep!" as the Mask attached to her face. I heard an faint cry of fear as my 'vision' darkened. I felt the world slip from my perspective, but I also saw it sort of, slow down?

***Luna's Mind***

Huh, I actually felt myself fade in here. I looked around and only saw a faded grey backdrop, with a white floor. Wait, I looked around? I had a neck? I had a head?! Not just a head, I had a body.. Although it was rather ghostly. You know how you used to have those old T.V's? You know how they had those channels with fuzz on them? Yeah, I'm that. Only vaguely human shaped.

"We can give you power, just give us your body." I heard Majora talking.

"No! I don't need more power!" I heard Luna tell it. I started toward them, hopefully nothing stupid-

"Your sister doesn't believe anything you say. We can help you. We can help bring your justice to the world." I heard Majora whisper soothingly into Luna's very mind. I approached them, to see Luna looking down, seemingly contemplating the words it used. I walked over and stood between them.

"What are you doing?" I asked the floating Red snake in front of Luna. Luna jumped slightly at my appearance. Her frown turning to a slight look of worry.

"We are gathering power, power to destroy. It stated, almost like I should know better. And know better I did.. I just wasn't having any of that.

"Nope, not happening." I said flatly. I only now realized I was talking out loud.. With no mouth.. Nope, not getting into this.

"You asked for more power. We are getting it for you. You chose this one as a vessel!" It screeched. Luna covered her ears at the noise. I crossed my arms.

"I Chose her to talk to her! Now, take your Dark Magic bullshit somewhere else!" I growled out, Majora's attitude was already getting on my nerves.

"How dare you!" It screeched, wrapping itself around my neck and torso. "Who are you to tell us what to do?!" It hissed into my ear. Really now? I stood my ground, I knew a power play when I saw one. I may not know a lot about what was going on right now, but I knew one thing for certain.

"Because." I grabbed it by the neck, "I'm the one in control here!" I threw it into the air. It flew up, and swam around like a water snake, before turning back to us with glowing Orange eyes.

"Control.." It hissed out as it faded away.

"Oh man, that was NOT how I wanted this to start.." I muttered to myself. A small cough caught my attention. I turned to see Luna looking at me with a stern face.

"Right.. Well, since this started out swimmingly, I'll start with this then. I mean no harm. I got sent to your world in a different body." I said quickly. Luna blinked owlishly, then sat down on the ground cross-legged. She sighed before looking up at me.

"Continue." She ushered me on. I breathed out a sigh of relief, as I sat in front of her, on my knee's.

"Thank you, I'm really glad your listening. I'll start easy, I'm a human, from another world called Earth. I have no idea where I am,but I do know what I am. I'm an incredibly evil artifact from a game I played as a child. It's known as 'Majora's Mask'." She seemed to perk up at this fact, she even looked like she was fully paying attention now. "This item was used as the games focal point, making you spend all your time trying to beat it. The Mask itself is almost indestructible, and the Magic it possesses is insane." Luna was now staring into my soul through my eyes.

"How do you do it?" She all but whispered her question. I almost didn't hear here, not that it made a difference.

"Do what?" I asked softly. She looked to the ground as she fiddled with the hem of her skirt.

"How do you tell such a malicious power to go away? I watched you do it just now. You talked to it like a foal, yet it didn't do anything. Why?" She asked, her eyes meeting mine again. I smiled.

"Its actually really simple. Things like that require your own fear to power itself. It wants you to fear it, so it digs into your mind and uses what it needs to get deeper. Soon enough, the very thing you didn't want, looks like it's the only thing you want." She looked down again, but I cupped her chin and lifted her face up. "All you have to do is not listen. Just remember, whatever they say, it's all a lie." I saw Luna smile for the first time since I met her, but it was short lived. It seemed like my time here was up. The world we were in was fading into darkness again.

Come to think of it.. I thought I would be able to talk to Celestia through Luna's body. I mean talking to Luna was great and all, but what about-

***Real World***

Bam!

Oh goody, more spinning! I saw the world zip around me, as I rocketed out of the tree line. Jesus.. How hard did she hit me?

"You dare touch my sister?!" Celestia was literally smoldering right now. What is she, a volcano? Her eyes were white, and her rainbow hair was steaming. "I'll send you to Tartarus!" Her voice a snarl. I vaguely saw her horn light up, as I was still trying to get the world to stop tilting at a Ninety degree angle.. Oh wait. I righted my own floating just in time to see a blast of white send me digging a trench into the ground.

I felt it, a rumbling in my new body, as I finally stopped moving again. I could feel my body telling me. I was dangerously close my second stage.

"I swear to god, if you make me sprout tentacles I'll kill myself!" I roar in anger. Celestia stopped mid-flight, and her hair stopped steaming as she looked at me confused.

"What?" She asked

What?

I talked? I talked! Yes, now I just need to-

"Sister stop!" Luna's voice called out. A blur of Blue stopped in front of me, as Luna hovered in front of me. I hovered higher up, so I wasn't staring at her butt, when she grabbed me. She held me close, and looked to her sister. She held out a hand to tell her sister to hold. She looked at me, as she moved me around. "Are you injured?" She asked, a slight bit of worry on her face.

"No." Oh god, my voice was so shrill, I swear its only a few tones lower than Majora's scream. But, at least I can talk. "I'm fine, thanks for worrying though." I said, the Mask's eyes glowing slightly. Luna nodded at me, and turned her attention back to her sister.

"He means no harm, sister. He is an Outsider." She really put an emphasis on that last word. Celestia looked confused, and then her eyes widened.

"Like Starswirl?!" She exclaimed. Her face one of amazement.

I swear Luna felt my confusion, as she looked to me and spoke.

"Starswirl is a magician who almost re-wrote what we thought we knew on 'Magic'. Sadly, he passed away some time ago. He was in a similar position you were in. He once told me that he was from another world. One where magic was but a fairy tale. When he gained his magic, he was a stallion obsessed, and wouldn't stop until he had mastered Magic as a whole. He was close, but time caught up to him in the end." Luna's story got me thinking.

If there was another like me.. Perhaps it's not too far-fetched of an idea that others might come, or already exist here! Maybe one knows a way home. I'd have to save that for the future though. As for right now, I need to figure out this body completely first. Speaking of..

"Um, Luna. You can let me go now." I felt her jump slightly at my comment, as she let go with a slight flush. I floated away from her chest slowly, as she muttered an apology. "So, how do I get back into town? I assume I'm still leaking Dark Magic right?" A mod from the Two sisters was all I got. "And I doubt the people.. Erm, Ponies?" I asked, getting a nod again. "Right, I doubt the ponies in town will like the idea of a Mask pouring out Dark Magic following the princesses through town. Any idea's?" I asked, the Mask's eyes glowing slightly. Celestia was first this time.

"You can go limp, right? Like you did to get in the first time?" She asked, a finger on her chin in thought.

"That was more because I didn't trust myself, but yeah. Why?" It was at this time when I realized that Luna's smile was both cute and sinister at the same time.

***In Town***

Really?

This was their plan?

Luna currently had me in a glowing blue chain of magic. Lightly holding me in the air, so the townsponies could see. I could hear the ponies murmuring to themselves. It was a bit degrading, but I've done a lot today. Might as well add this to the 'bullshit I went through today' list I was now making in my head.. Its a pretty long list.

I was still a bit confused though. If all she wanted was to show the townsponies that I wasn't a threat right now, then why hsve me wrapped up in a-

I was lifted up to Luna's face, where I could see her growing smile. Why was it so evil look-

Ah Christ, she's spinning me! She tossing me around like you would a toy!

And she's laughing! Oh when we get inside I'm going to-

Smack!

She just accidently slapped me into her butt.. In front of everyone. Just the looks on their faces..

Nope, never mind, I'm all set. Please, continue to swing me around. At least I get a nice airbag.

Two of a Kind

I looked outside and noted the setting sun. I knew that the moon was coming out soon, I could feel it. The power inside me was getting restless and that meant Majora would be up to no good. I turned myself to the two sister who were sitting enjoying a cup of tea at a table not too far from a glowing fireplace.

"So-" I stopped short, a shiver going down my non-existent spine. I hated how my voice sounded coming from the mask.. "So when do you two get to bed anyway?" I asked, trying to keep the screeching down to a minimum. If I do anything in this world, it will be getting to talk normally. The two sisters shared a look, Celestia turned to me with a small smile.

"We do not sleep much, as Alicorns we require the bare minimum of life's necessities. We still eat, to feel normal, but we do not require more than a few hours of sleep every few days." She stated. She nodded to Luna, her smile switching to a sly smirk. "In fact, tonight is Luna's turn for her few hours. She was telling me earlier how she would like to-" She was interrupted by a blue furred hand covering her mouth. Luna looked at her with wide, slightly angry eyes.

"I told you not to say anything!" She barked to her sister. She turned to me, an embarrassed smile on her face. Celestia's eyes twinkled slightly, as she pulled her sister's hand from her mouth.

"-She wants you to sleep with her!" Celestia blurted out with a laugh. Luna sputtered at the outburst, looking at me with a flushed face, trying to form sentences.

"It's not- I don't- Gaah!" Luna screamed as she put her head in her hands to hide her embarrassment. The smile on Celestia's face was one I knew too well..

I will forever call this mare Trollestia if she keeps this up.

I shook my head, in turn shaking the Mask as well.

"We seem to think alike." I replied stoically. In an instant Celestia's smirk faded, and Luna 'Eeped' as she pulled her head from her hands, looking at me in confusion and.. Was that disgust? Jesus mare, I've know you for like a day!

"I simply imply that we both wished to talk to each other more. Doing so while she is asleep, and wearing the Mask would be beneficial to both parties." I stated, like the politician I never wanted to be. Fortunately my explanation drew two separate sighs, one from each mare. Letting me know that my reasoning passed whatever test they were trying to pull. Luna flashed a smile, as she turned to her sister with a smug grin.

"Well then, looks like I get to sleep with the overly-sentient Mask after all." She teased her sister, probably a play off the joke that I just witnessed. Celestia's reply was the child-like response of sticking your tongue out.

Luna walked over to me, and simply grabbed me by the horn on top of my body.. I don't think I'll be getting used to having two separate body's working under the same yet fundamentally different motor controls.

I know its not my body, but I feel everything that happens to it! Luna's hand gripping the spike, the fur tickling me as it rubbed slightly. The pressure she put in the grip to make sure I didn't go anywhere. Even the warmth from her body! Do you understand how weird it is knowing that your body doesn't make its own heat anymore?

I was drawn from my monologue again, by the sound of a door closing. I brought my attention to the area around me, and was a bit dumbstruck at the room I was in. The ceiling was painted exactly like a night sky, the walls a deep blue. Even the bed was amazing, a slight purple mixed with the blue to make it stand out in the room, yet not keep your eyes from flowing to the rest of the room.

"Wow, your room is beautiful, Luna." I stated. I looked at her to see her standing in front of her bed, looking at the ceiling, the lighting in the room just bright enough to glimmer off her eyes. She brought her eyes to my own orange ones and I noted a flicker in those eyes I hadn't seen before.

Had.. Had she never been complimented before? Yes I know her room is made in her image, as would most when making a bedroom, so complimenting their room is like complimenting them. But the way she looked at me.. Was like she wasn't expecting anyone to do so.

"You truly think so?" Her voice soft, and uncertainty flowed from her.

Yup, that right there? I'm not one to let this go. This woman is beautiful, and deserves the praise I'd seen her sister get on the way in town.

"Most certainly. It also truly shows what the night can stand for. Comfort. Relaxation. Rejuvenation. Just to name a few. I know that most do not see it, but-" I was suddenly surrounded by blue. Blue fur to be exact.

"Thank you.." Luna said softly, hugging me. A tear dropped and landed on my orange eye.

Wait.. What?

"Nopony has ever said anything about my night like that before. Or me, as well." Her voice dropped even lower, to a whisper into where I would have had an ear. She pulled away, and smiled softly.

Her smile was.. Different? Gone was the suspicion of me they once held, however little it was. Now it was like a child that had their first piece of candy.

Good, maybe she'll be able to handle more next time. Even if I'm the only one who does it, I will be the one to make her feel special damnit!

..Where did that come from? Am I going crazy? I don't feel any different.. Maybe not having a body is affecting my mind somehow? Cutting off sensory input from some senses and amplifying others would have the affects, but I feel like I would have noticed. Maybe I could-

I was turned around, in a flash of blue. Luna had apparently turned me around. But why? Its not like that would stop me from see-

I immediately dove under the bed, almost out the other side. I heard Luna squeak as I did so.

"What's wrong?!" She asked, as I heard a fluttering from where she was.

"I'm sorry.. I'm sorry.. I'm sorry.." She must have heard my muttering, as she continued over to my position. Before I could say anything, I was gently grabbed from under the bed.

"It's okay. What happened?" She asked gently.

"I should have told her.. Its my fault.. I'm sorry.." She heard me mutter again. She gently flicked my forehead, getting me to zone back in. I focused on my surroundings again. My mind landed on Luna, and I flinched back slightly. "S-Sorry. I should have told you sooner. But my new body doesn't actually have eyes, so I see everything using what I believe is a magic eye." She cocked her head to the side in confusion. "I don't need to be facing the direction to see something, I see all around me all the time. I usually just focus on what I need to." I told her, ready for the hit.

I re-focused on Luna, to see her with her eyes closed, mouth a thin line, and her cheeks a cherry red.

"I-I tried. I tried to unfocus, but I couldn't. So I panicked and flew under the bed, where my vision would cut off from around me." This got her attention, as she looked at me in confusion. The confusion drifted to a smile, as she looked at me.

"You were not trying to peek, and even went out of your way to stop it from continuing. That is most admirable. Most stallions in your position would have stared and enjoyed the sight of a princess changing in front of them." She spoke with a haughty tone, like she was playing with me. Her smirk proved that theory to me. I floated in front of her face, and spoke in the least screeching way I could muster.

"The female body is not something to be exploited. It is something that should only be seen by those chosen by said female. I may sound old fashioned, but that is how I was raised. And that is how I will live." I said, my voice surprisingly steady and not too many of Majora's screeches in there. Luna stood there looking at me, her face unreadable. After a bit of time, she seemed to settle for a smile. One that reached her eyes, as her eyes flashed with.. I think that was Compassion? Its hard to read that crap on a moments notice.

"Well then, shall we?" Luna motioned for the bed. Honestly, I was surprised. If I had a body, I'd be hard pressed to survive this crap with all the blood I'd be losing. Between all the contact I've had with her, and her being almost nude in front of me earlier, I have no doubt I would have comically shot out of the room from a blood rocket. I watched as she climbed into the bed, motioning me forward. I floated in front of her face, as she grabbed me with both hands, gently turning me around.

"How does this feel, by the way?" She asked suddenly, looking at the inside of my body.

-Wait, when the hell did I start calling this Mask my body?! *sigh* Fine, I guess it is.. Doesn't mean I like the thought any more than I did before.

"To be honest, I was to focused on not dying at the time, so I don't remember much about it. But I do remember a warm feeling as I attached to you, before whiting out. That help any?" I asked, noting the subtle change in my voice. It was getting easier to make the Mask pronounce my voice rather than Majora's. Everything I do is like muscle memory. The more I practice, the better I get at it.

I saw Luna smile, before speaking again, her eyes drooping slightly from laying down.

"Yes, I remember the warmth. It never left, even while you were telling that 'Majora' thing to go away. A warmth radiated from you and kept me calm. I thought it was but a trick at first. But after getting to know you a bit, I now realize that its your magic. The Mask may have a massive pool of Dark Magic, but you yourself have your own magic that you mix with the Mask's own. It dilutes the evil feeling more and more, the more you try. I noticed it earlier, when you were scared. The presence of the mask was all but suppressed, and all I felt was the same warmth from before." Her smile deepened as she continued. "Your warm magic is what's making me sleepy right now, actually. Usually I have to read for hours to get this tired, yet here, all I had to do was lay down and hold you."

Woah, that's a lot to take in..

I have my own magic? How's that work? I can kinda feel what she's talking about, but I still feel the power the Mask has. I feel the evil magic, surging through me constantly, never stopping. Even when I don't want it to, it keeps going. In fact, I think it may be linked to how I'm alive right now.

Food for thought, for a later date.

"I have much I wish to ask you." Luna said sleepily, as she pressed me to her face, that warmth spreading through myself, and into Luna. I felt Luna tense up, then relax, as she released a sigh. I whited out shortly after.

----Luna's Mind----

Luna's mind was very intricate this time. The place was full of diverse biomes. Plains here, jungle there, even a dessert over there! I found Luna stretched out on a meadow. Enjoying the breeze flowing through her hair. She opened her eyes and looked at me, she motioned towards the spot next to her. I floated down next to her, my body, although made of what looked to be fuzz from a T.V, was still solid. I landed next to her and looked to the sunset she had made in her head.

So, what would you like to start off with?" I did a quick bit of math in my head. "We have about Four hours in here before you wake up." A rustle came from her, as she moved a bit sitting up. A tree popped up behind her, holding her up so she could lean on it.

"Well, how about how you got here?" She asked, her eyes closed again. I hopped up onto the tree, and used my legs to hang from the underside of a branch.

"Short story, I went to a um.." I stopped to think this through. Finding the right word to describe what I needed. "A party! A costume party, I bought something for my costume, and wound up buying a cursed item. It transported me to your world, while turning me into.. The Mask you see outside." I explained. Luna looked up at me, eyes full of emotion. She turned back to the sunset and smiled.

"I'm glad." She said simply. I was going to interrupt her, and ask why, but I didn't need to. "I'm glad you came here. I got to meet somepony who wasn't afraid of me. Somepony who likes my Night.." She paused. "I met somepony who understands me." Her eyes met mine again.

How? I know I've been reading her facial features to read her emotions, but how can she-

"Its your magic." She started suddenly. "I can hear you, since we're in my mind. You're still new to magic, especially the one you use instinctually. And as such, you tend to flare up at odd times. When your telling the truth your magic evens out. When your lying, it drops." She paused to chuckle. "When your flustered, it spikes. Those, and a few other thing I won't tell you, help me understand you." She looked away. "Next question, how do you plan on going back?" The question came out straight and to the point.

It took me a bit to find my answer, and even longer to believe what I'd cooked up.

"I'm.. Not sure I can." I curled my knee's to my chest as I looked out to the sunset. "I wasn't the most like person where I came from. I left my family behind when I was Eighteen, and never thought to reconnect. Even though people told me too, I wouldn't. I guess I'm stubborn, but my stubbornness is why I am who I am." I felt Luna's eyes on me. "I-I.. I don't think I wanna go back." Something stung my eyes.

Tears.. I had tears going down my cheeks. I hadn't cried since I was Twelve for Christ's sakes!

"I had a shitty job, sure I had friends, but they were all work friends. None of them really mattered in the end. I had no family, at least, none that I wanted to talk to and well.. My life just sucked. I know you'll just think I'm crazy for saying all this, but starting a new life on a different planet.. Sounds ideal to me." I rubbed away a few tears, drying my eyes. "But of course, fate sticks one more block in my way. I'm a god-damned Mask!" I laughed, but it was empty, no feeling in it. "How am I supposed to do anything as an object? I can barely move without causing some sort of ruckus, but I'm supposed to do what? Find love? Start over? I don't even know anymore.." I muttered into my hands.

...

Oh god, I just had a breakdown in front of Luna.. She must think I'm completely insane.

A fuzzy blue hand rested gently on my chin and neck, moving my head up out of my hands, my tear streaked eyes met her own. Tears welling up in her own, as she pulled my head to her chest in a hug. I sat there, hugging her back, sobbing into her neck, as she cooed into my ear, while rubbing my back.

It was a few minutes later, when I pulled back, and sniffed the last of my crying away. She looked at me and smiled, as she put a hand to my cheek.

"All this time, I thought that the creature inside the Mask was some hardened warrior, or some amazing tactician. But it was simply a stallion, a stallion looking for a life to live and love." She made a motion to the setting sun again, drawing my attention there as she talked. "We were both dealt bad hands at birth. Both of us search for a place we belong. Both of us are destined for lives of turmoil." She said solemnly.

"Unless we stick together.." I replied softly, but she still heard it. Luna looked at me with a decent amount of shock on her face. But I was committed to this now, as I looked to the sky. "If we both are outcasts in some way, shape, or form.. Then sticking together would be the best option for us to at least enjoy life at a base level." I turned back to Luna. "We can keep each other sane." I muttered.

Luna looked at me, then to the sky, a small smile appeared on her face. Just as she was about to talk however-

"Oh how cute. Little Luna thinks she can have a friend." A cold voice called from behind us., We turned quickly, to the sight of a pony I hadn't seen yet. Her hair was almost identical to Luna's, but her fur was completely black. Her eyes were Turquois with a slit in them like a cats eye, And she was even wearing some sort of armor. I was about to ask who she was, but a growl from next to me answered any question I had.

"Nightmare! What are you doing here? I told you I don't need your power!" Luna growled out as she stood from her passion, myself following close behind.

"Now now Luna don't think you can get away from me as simply as that. I had the help of a new friend." As Nightmare spoke, I had a sense of dread wash over me, as a flash of Red light appeared next to me.

"We may not be in control, but we certainly know how to gain it!" The voice of Majora screeched in my ear, as it pushed its way into me. Not metaphorically, I mean literally, into my chest. The sudden intrusion made me cry out, as Luna continued to stare down Nightmare. Said mare only had a smirk on her face, like she knew what was going on. A sudden pain made me grasp my head.

It felt as if somebody was tearing something from me!

I cried out as I felt my non-physical body fade, as Luna looked to me in worry. She watched as, what looked like bolts of White and Red magic intermingled. The Red magic got darker, as it pulled away from the White one. It solidified into a representation of the Mask itself.

"Ah, that's much better. No more bothersome sanity to tie us down! Hee-Hee!" Majora laughed insanely.

The White bolt condensed into a small ball, and flew at Luna. As she reached out to grab it, she gasped as it fazed right through her hand, and collided into her chest. a few seconds passed, and she didn't feel anything left of the magic of her new friend. She turned to Majora and Nightmare and glared at them with hate.

"What have you done?" She hissed. Her response was Nightmare laughing, as Majora floated up to Luna. In an instant Red pulsating tentacles shot from the Mask, and wrapped around Luna.

"We've won" Majora said, as Luna felt her mind slipping from the dream world.

----Reality: Third Person----

Luna awoke to the feeling of just pure.. Malice. She jumped from her bed, in time to see a swirling vortex of Red and dark Purple magic convert into a single point. It slowly formed a body, feminine in looks. It wasn't until the final layer of fur was added did Luna piece together what was happening in front of her, she flinched back at the pure magic power emanating from the creature. Nightmare Moon stood in front of Luna, decked out in her usual armor, Blue plated gloves, boots and chest plate. Instead of her helmet, she simply cocked her head to the side as a smile appeared on her face. Her eyes glazed over slightly, as Red wispy magic rushed towards her face, condensing into Majora's Mask over he face. Her head still cocked to the side, she started laughing. The two voices of Nightmare and Majora mixing into one feminine yet screechy cry of laughter.

"This.. This is the power we've needed!" The combination cried out as it flexed it's new magic power. A windstorm of Black and Red wisps came from Nightmare as they cackled in delight. Luna shielded her eyes as the power washed over her.

"Luna?!" Celestia's voice called out, as she burst through the door to Luna's bedroom. Her eyes went wide upon seeing the masked version of Nightmare. "Luna?! What's happened?" She asked her sister as she glanced at Luna, her horn lighting up in a Golden glow.

"How cute, you think you can stop us?" Nightmare giggled, as the mask glowed a faint Purple, as her horn glowed a faint Red. In an instant Celestia's horn fizzled and popped like small fireworks.

"What?!" Celestia called out, surprised. Luna looked on in anger, but not for the same reason as Celestia.

"What did you do to him?" She called out, standing tall. Nightmare looked to Luna, and cocked her head to the side.

"We simply took the Insanity and Fun from him, and left the remainder to die. Insanity powers us, its that simple." And with that statement, Nightmare raised a hand with her palm facing Luna. In front of her palm magic swirled, and mixed. Ending up as a small tennis ball sized swirl on magic. The power radiating off of it was almost too much for Luna.

"I refuse!" A voice called out. In an instant the ball of White magic fazed out of Luna's chest, and stopped in front of her. "I refuse to let you hurt them!" The voice called out, angrily. The ball of magic exploded in a wave of wisps, blinding all those who watched. Nightmare watched silently, as her magic ball still floated in her hand. The White magic settled down, and Nightmare backed up slightly.

"How!?"Nightmare called out in surprise. She then held up her hand and charged more magic into the previous ball of malevolent energy. "Die!" She launched the ball, and it exploded, tearing up the castle around them in a plum of dark Red magic. "Die, Die!" Nightmare charged and threw Two more blasts, all the while the screech of Majora was getting more and more profound.

After the explosion cleared, the smoke and dust floated away, revealing a bubble of white magic. Inside the bubble was a shocked Celestia, who looked around at the devastation. Followed by a surprised Luna, she however wasn't looking at the destruction, rather she was looking at what was causing the Barrier.

In front of Luna, was a Mask. This one reminded her of the long lost Elvish race, as the Mask had the look of an Elf. Only it had Red tribal markings under its eyes and a Blue tribal mark on its forehead. It was topped with what looked to be a Sea-Green hat.

What was really surprising was the magic it was letting seep out of itself. The same warmth she felt from the other occupant of the mask, only more.. Vicious, and Angry. But the warmth was still there. Let alone the fact that the pure amount of magic that it was letting off was enough for it to form the barrier.

"If you want a fight, I'll gladly destroy you now, and take back what was mine. The Elvish mask said. Its words laced with hatred.

Silence

Luna looked to Nightmare as she noticed that her head was down, and it looked like she was examining her hands, as they clenched and unclenched.

"Our body is not yet at full power.." Nightmare muttered out loud, as she raised her head. She began laughing as Majora's Mask began glowing. "We will meet again, when you wish to stop the moon!" Nightmare said as its glow darkened, and she disappeared, her cackling laughter fading into the distance.

Celestia stood slowly, as the white barrier around them faded. Her eyes blazing with anger as she looked to the new Mask.

"What happened? And who are you?!" Her anger making slight flames erupt from the ground behind her, as he mane turned from flowing rainbow to living flame. The Mask turned to face them, its motions slow. It seemed to study its surrounding slightly, before answering.

"...As it stands now, I am the Fierce Deity Mask. I am simply the shadows of your friends memories and emotions combined into this Mask. The Fierce Deity's Mask said. "I am a re-imagining of the one object your friend knew could stop Majora and its rampage. Celestia's flames subsided as she heard those words. As I was only made from Anger and Magic, I do not understand why he made me, but I do know that his last conscious thoughts were to protect you from Majora." The Mask turned to Luna. "I will take down Majora, and maybe regain what was lost." With that, the Mask's White glow faded, as it went into a sleep mode.

Luna looked to her sister, and they survived the area. Only a fourth of the castle was destroyed, but the destruction was absolute. Not a single piece of the building was left, aside from what was in the barrier at the time. That meant that whatever ponies in the area at the time were also gone forever. Celestia collapsed to the floor, tears streaming down her face at the loss of her ponies. Luna lay next to her, and placed her head in her sister's neck, crying herself.

"I'm sorry, Tia.." Luna shook from her sobs, both from the loss of the ponies, and the loss of her new friend.

They had a long day ahead of them tomorrow.

There we go, got this down and finished on my Birthday! :pinkiehappy:

I made sure to go over it at least four times.
Tell me what you think guys!:pinkiehappy:

Why Must Magic Be Complicated?

----The Castle----

Luna looked to her sister as she levitated up a large piece of framework into place for the repairs. They had gotten about half of it done, but Celestia had to step aside, as more and more ponies came asking questions. More than a few of them left in tears at the end of the explanation, as Celestia looked more and more downtrodden with each one.

Luna glanced over to where her sisters room was, and noted the floating White Mask in the window, shed could faintly feel the magic emanating from it, so similar to her friend, yet at the same time, it was so.. angry. She could feel the warm magic from before burning like her sisters own magic. It was watching the destruction that had be brought by letting Majora do what it did. It probably felt responsible for the damage. She would have to talk to it soon, lest its magic be felt from other, more magic sensitive ponies.

"I'm sorry, Luna." Her thoughts were interrupted by Celestia's voice, as she had walked over while Luna was looking to the tower.

"What are you sorry for?" Luna asked as she waved her hands as they glowed with her magic, flowing nails into needed spots and pushing them in.

"I haven't been helping." Was all Celestia said. Luna scoffed lightly at her words. She stopped channeling magic to turn to her sister.

"You've been telling ponies grave news, and helping them understand why it happened. If that's not helping, then neither is fixing the castle." Luna glared childishly at her sister. She watched as a small smile curled on Celestia's lips.

"Thanks Lulu.." She whispered in her ear as she drew her sister in for a hug. The two stayed in that position for a few minutes, before Celestia broke the hug, mouth tugged into a smirk.

"I can take over for now, why not go see what our new Elvish friend wants? I'm sure you've noticed his power spiking, like he's trying to gain our attention." Luna looked at her sister in confusion, the looked to the tower. She simply nodded, as she flew off to her sisters room. Behind her, Celestia's smile faded, and she looked to the sun as it was slowly sinking through the sky. Her lips curled downwards into a slight snarl, as she thought about everything that has happened.

As Luna opened the door to her sisters room she immediately felt the magic she had been sensing dissipate. she looked to the window, as she closed the door, and let out a sigh.

"You need to be a bit more discrete, if somepony feels your magic, and discovers you before we set things right, then you might as well ask for ponykind to hate you." She said, exasperatedly. She waited for an answer. The mask just float there, un-moving for almost a full two minutes. Just as Luna was about to question it further, it turned around.

"I am sorry. As I said yesterday, I was made from the Magic and Hatred of your friend, I do not know was other emotions are, nor can I say I've ever experienced them." It turned to the window, looking out at the partially rebuilt castle tower. "Yet looking at the destruction my lack of action resulted in.. It fills me with a feeling of dread. Its.. Hard to describe."Luna looked at it with steely eyes.

"Your sad that you caused the deaths of so many ponies." She stated flatly.

"Sadness.. Such things make me wish I was still whole.." It muttered. Luna's eyebrow rose.

"Whole? What do you mean?" Luna asked, nervous of the response. The Mask turned back to her.

"Majora realized it was lacking what made it so strong. So it took it. It reached inside of us, and ripped out all of our Insanity. As you should guess, removing one emotion can lead to quite a few problems. With Logic as the base emotion, it tore us apart on the inside, as it couldn't rationalize what was going on. In a last ditch attempt to save at least a fragment of ourselves from fading away to nothing, we used Knowledge as a base for us breaking off our understanding of Magic, and our Hatred for everything and split 'us' into me. As of now, the rest remains inside you, locked away so it cant do more harm. Without Insanity to guide the other emotions through it, we cannot exist in this world full of magic. It is essential that we regain what was lost, so we can become one being." At this it turned around to look outside, but this time it was focusing on the slowly rising moon.

"You sound as if your in a rush." Luna said, as she sat on the bed, thinking over what she just heard.

"As of right now, Insanity is using it's new hosts as a power source, both Majora and Nightmare will feed it. My power comes from anger, as such, just being near your sister lets me gain powers." This got Luna to perk up.

"What do you me-" Luna was interrupted.

"So you can tell then?" The cold voice of Celestia came from the door. Both occupants turned to see Celestia leaning on the doorway with her arms crossed under her chest.

"Indeed, your anger at Majora is almost tangible. But regrettably, so is your anger aimed at my previous form, both these will help me fight Majora." Celestia flinched at the second half of the Mask's statement, but regained her fiery look quickly.

"Those Two are the reason Fourteen pony lives were lost today. They will pay." Celestia growled out. The Mask floated over to her and stopped right in front of her face.

"If we combine our energies together we can become stronger than Majora ever could. My predecessor could have done the same with Luna, yet he chose not to. He didn't even bring it up, due to Logic disagreeing with Insanity and Instinct." It said, floating gently towards Celestia's hands.

Luna looked shocked, the Mask was basically saying that her sister would help it beat Majora, the very being that caused a crater with a single attack. How strong could this Magic be?

"You can't sister! What if Majora and Nightmare are expecting you to show up? We have to think this through-" Luna was interrupted as her sister reached forward to grab the mask. As soon as she grabbed it, they all felt a wave of magic wash over them. But it was coming from outside. Eyes widening in shock they all rushed to the window.

Outside the air had a red-Orange hue to it, as if the sky itself was on fire. Looking further out, they clearly saw the figure of Nightmare standing on a mountaintop, arms raised in the air.

"We are wasting time! Do you not see what is happening?!" The Mask sounded frantic. "Up!!" It called. Confused, the Two sisters looked up, and both of their jaws fell due to what they saw.

The moon.

The moon was far too close to the planet, it only looked to be a few hundred miles away at the most, and closing fast.

"Luna?!" Celestia called out, as she looked to her sister. Luna's horn was already aglow, burning a bright blue. A drop of sweat ran down her neck, as her eyes snapped open.

"I cant control it! I can hold it still, but even that takes too much concentration!" Luna exclaimed, voice laced with fear.

"We must go, now! The longer we wait the more the moon feeds Majora strength!" The Mask said, forcing Celestia's hand towards the window. The jerking motion snapped her out of her stupor, as she snarled at the moon. Her eyes darted to Nightmare's position. In a flash of Golden light, she was gone.

"Wait!" Luna called. She looked to the moon, then to Nightmare, a determined look came across her face, as she relinquished her hold on the moon, and quickly teleported to where she felt her sister. In a flash of navy blue magic, she appeared and re-locked her magic with that of the moon's. The moon's motion was paused again, but this time, instead of stopping fully, it was still inching its way down. From its position and speed, Luna figured the moon would hit the ground in under Twelve minutes. She looked to her sister, and noted that they were talking.

"You must hurry.." She muttered.

Celestia glared at Nightmare, the horn atop her head glowed a vicious Golden Yellow. Nightmare, adorned with Majora's mask, simply chuckled.

"Oh? And what do you intend to do, dear sister?" The combination of both Nightmare's and Majora's voices called out mockingly. Celestia simply stared, as she studied the magic they were flowing out, it was indeed a decent margin stronger than the last time she felt it. She pulled her arms from behind her back, holding the Mask by the eyeholes, the nose facing her palm.

"This." She stated, as she placed the Mask over her face, instantly the sound of breaking bones came from the mask. The sound spread through Celestia's body, as she cried out in surprise pain. A white light starting to shine through her skin, as the bone breaking sounds got even louder, the pain causing Celestia to cry out louder, then with a final scream she flipped her head towards the sky, eyes bloodshot, and the mouth of the mask itself open as if it was screaming for her. In a burst of White light, a cloud of dust rose around her.

As the dust settled revealing Celestia, Luna gasped, and Majora cried out in anger. In her place stood an Elvish woman, wearing a Blue tunic. Wearing a dark Blue undershirt, stockings, and gloves, while the boots she was wearing were brown. On her back was a sword unlike any other. A blade as long as her own body, with a handle clearly meant for Two hands. The blade itself was Helix Edged, meaning the blade started from the handle and split off into two smaller pieces of metal that crossed once midway and met at the end in a sharp point.

Her face resembled the Mask, the only different being the gender. Majora was the first to talk.

"Even in another world, we cant be rid of you." It scoffed. "No matter, with the power of the moon, and Nightmare Moon, combined with Majora's own, we can destroy you in an instant!" Nightmare said, a whirlwind of energy erupting from around her, causing massive damage to the surrounding mountain. Celestia simply looked at her, face impassive, as she surged her own power. The White magic that flowed from her soared into the sky like a beacon, the only thing that stopped it was the moon itself, as it shook from the impact. When the magic died down, Celestia drew her new sword, Blue energy crackling alongside its edge like lightning.

In a flash of motion, and Red magic, Nightmare appeared in front of Celestia and did a quick flip kick, followed by a few tentacles zipping out and whipping in her direction. Celestia took the kick, and used her sword to slice at the tentacles mere inches away from her face. She punched Nightmare in the shoulder, sending her flying back. Nightmare did a quick recovery flip, and started to float into the air. Her cackling laugh rocked through the battlefield.

"You have some skill. Lets test your abilities, shall we?" Nightmare chuckled as she flicked her wrist and a tentacle slip from Majora into her hand. Her other hand was outstretched, aimed palm first at Celestia. As Red and Purple magic mixed with Black magic in her palm, she began to spin her newest whip.

"Here, catch!" Nightmare yelled out with a screech as she pulsed her magic out into a beam, towards Celestia.

With a hefty swing, Celestia cut through the magic beam, sending a small Blue bolt of magic to Nightmares palm, disabling the spell. with a deft flick of her fingers, she flicked the heavy sword into the sky with what looked like practiced ease. Only to grab the incoming Red tentacle with both hands, and quickly spin. This made Nightmare fly towards her with a surprised yelp. With a quick motion, Celestia wrapped the tentacle around Nightmare.

Nightmare let out a grunt, as she looked into Celestia's emotionless face.

"Didn't know you felt that way about me. I am your sister after all." Nightmare said, voice low and husky. At those words Celestia's previously emotionless face grew an anger filled snarl. She lifted an arm, fingers outstretched, as she caught the sword she had flung into the air. Upon contact with her hand, the sword began glowing a blinding Blue.

"Eep?"

*Smash*

A wave of Blue shot out, fully encompassing Nightmares form. As the energy faded, Celestia plunged the blade into the ground, standing in the same spot she started in.

"You are not any sibling of mine. Never talk to me like we're family!" The hatred burning in Celestia's eyes. Nightmare stared a bit, before she started laughing again, smoke still seeping from her from the attack.

"You think your better than me?" Nightmare laughed out. "I rule the Night! The moon is under my complete control!" Nightmare's laugh died out as she looked to the moon. "In fact.. fall!" She seemed to pull her hand down from the air, and a pulse of magic was sent careening into the moon. Within seconds the moon's natural Grey glow was overtaken by an eerie Red. The moon suddenly started dropping faster than it had before.

An outcry from behind her turned Celestia's attention to Luna for a second. Luna was now on the ground, horn still lit with a Blue glow, but it was fading.

"Magic.. Too strong.." Luna breathed out, as her horn petered out. The moon picked up speed, Luna cringed as she figured that the moon would now only take 6 minutes at most to fall to the ground.

Celestia turned back to Nightmare to see the mare staring at the moon. The Masked visage of Nightmare looked over her shoulder towards Celestia.

"Come get me!" A beam of black and purple magic flew down from the moon, pulling Nightmare upwards. Her laughter was only heard as echoes as she disappeared into the moon. Celestia didn't waste time, and jumped in as well. Luna could only wait, as she watched the moon continue to fall.

----Inside The Moon: Meadow----

Celestia looked around and noted the bright Green of the grass, and The general beauty of the meadow they now resided. Even the large tree that stood in the distance was bright.

"Always back to here, huh Majora?" Fierce Deity asked aloud, without moving Celestia's mouth.

"If memory serves, this is the place where you reside is it not?" Majora asked from across the meadow, drawing Celestia's attention to the tree. In front of it stood Nightmare, arms crossed, floating lazily in the air. "However.." Majora said as Nightmare's head tilted sideways in amusement. She snapped her fingers, and suddenly they were standing in a room with rainbow colored walls, only they were far to dark to be called anything but malevolent.

"Welcome to our home." Nightmare's voice called out, as she floated in the middle of the room.

Celestia readied her sword, a Blue and White glow flowing down its edges.

"You talk to much." With those words, Celestia swung her sword, sending a beam of magic across the room, nailing Nightmare in the chest, slamming her into the wall behind her. Aside from the impact itself, it looked as if the attack had no affect at all. With blazing speeds, Celestia stabbed at the air rapidly and swung in wide arcs, sending blast after blast at the deadly duo. When the room was full of smoke and dust, Two red tentacles rushed from the clouds and smashed into Celestia, sliding her back a foot, as she braced for the continuous whipping that followed. Rapid strikes from all angles were all Celestia felt, as her rage grew. She rushed forward.

"I don't have time! If magic wont work, then I'll use force!" She grunted as she got within arms reach of Nightmare. At the same time the tentacles all stabbed into Celestia's back. Not showing anything but pure, burning rage as she dug her feet into the ground so the tentacles couldn't move her, as she reached up to Nightmare's face. She grasped the edges of the Mask, and pulled.

The masked Alicorn of rage incarnate pulled with everything she had, growling lowly.

"No! You can't!" Nightmare screeched out, ash she lashed out with more tentacles, hands reaching up to grab the hand pulling Majora from her face. In an act of pure instinct, Nightmare reached up to Celestia's face, and grabbed the edge of her face, forcing magic into her hand. She pulled, and felt the Mask Celestia was wearing slipping off.

In one last grunt, Celestia pulled and pushed herself away.

A flash of Red and White was all that could be seen.

Kneeling against on wall was Celestia Back to normal, panting for breath like she hadn't been breathing for hours, hand rubbing her face and eyes wild.

On the opposite side of the room, knelt Nightmare, eyes glossed over, and her hands by her side.

In the middle of the room, both Majora's Mask and Fierce Deity's Mask were floating apart of each other. Each silent, as theyu started to glow faintly.

"We never had a chance, did we? You had this all planned out like this.. Didn't you?" Majora's mask seemed subdued.

"No, this was all the original. It was his quick thinking that lead to this." Fierce Deity said flatly, glowing brighter as it faded into a small ball of light. As the small light entered Majora's Mask, Majora said one last thing.

"Hmm, our next try will have more thought behind it. Just you wait!" Majora's Mask glowed its dark red, before it lightened up considerably, almost back to the color it was before, then the magic stopped flowing entirely. The Mask simply fell to floor with a clatter. Its orange eyes had no glow, it looked lifeless.

Celestia had watched the exchange fully, and got up shakily of the floor. Her steps like a new born foal, as she slowly made her way to the fallen Mask. It appearance was almost identical to how it was a few minutes ago. The only differences was the fact that the mask itself seemed a bit brighter. Celestia raised a foot, hovering it over the Mask. Celestia had half a mind to stomp on the thing now, and stop any more of this from happening again.

Celestia gently let her foot land on the ground, as she bent over to pick it up. She tucked it under her arm, as she walked to Nightmare. Said mare was still dazed, eyes glossed over, and mumbling about power. Celestia almost dropped the Mask when it flashed a bright white, sending a small bolt towards Nightmare. The magic entered through her head, and the mare seemed to snap out of it.

"H-huh?" She said groggily, as she looked around. When she saw Celestia she tried to get up, but upon seeing the Mask under her arm, she immediately pushed herself away using her arms.

"Keep that thing away from me!" She even raised her arms to keep her face covered. Celestia raised an eyebrow, but sighed tiredly. She lit up her horn and summoned a glowing Golden chain and wrapped it around Nightmare's wrists. It was then, that a flash of Red magic was sent through the area in a wave, momentarily blinding Celestia. When opened her eyes, she found herself outside, however upon looking up she noted the moon still hanging in the air, almost touching her castle tower no less!

"Sister!" Luna's voice called out from behind her, as she turned she found herself hugged by her sister in a tackle-hug. Luna spun her sister around like a ragdoll, before letting her go. A soft clatter caught her attention, as she looked down she saw the lifeless mask. With a soft gasp, she gently leaned down and picked it up, cradling it like a baby. She couldn't feel anything from it, only a slightly warm feeling in her-

A soft White light gently spooled from her chest, wrapping around the Mask once, then soaking into it. After a minute of this, the White light stopped, and the Orange eyes of the Mask lit up faintly.

"W-what happened?" The voice of her friend came from the Mask. Not a screech to be heard, as his soft tone made her smile.

"What?" A confused sounding Nightmare called from behind Celestia. Upon seeing her, Luna clutched her friend to herself harder, and frowned.

"What are you doing here?" Luna asked Nightmare with no amount of joy in her voice.

"Can we get to that later? Where did that creepy voice go? The one that kept telling me to kill Everypony?!" Nightmare seemed none too happy.

"M-Majora.." The soft voice from the Mask started. "Majora got free. I'm so sorry." Luna shushed him, the Mask grumbling before the glow of his eyes faded. He was asleep.

"I don't know why your still here.. Or why I sense his magic inside of you, but I guess I can answer your questions if you answer my own. He is from a different world. He was brought here against his will, and at the same time, transformed into the Mask you see before you. It also houses the Masks initial soul as well, thus making it a bit like the struggle we once had." Luna answered. " Now, why do you have some of his magic in you? Is that why he's so tired?" Luna asked. Before Nightmare could try and answer, Celestia started to talk.

"I believe that he gave it to her." Celestia said, her answer was met with the confused looks of both maidens of the moon. "I think that, even unconscious, he knew she was in trouble, and gave up a part of himself to keep her alive." The confusion only deepened. Celestia sighed as she pinched the bridge of her nose. She turned to look at Nightmare. "Before you came in contact with Majora, did you have a body to claim as your own?" She asked. A look of sudden acknowledgment flashed across her face.

"He.. Gave me a body?" Nightmare whispered, eyes wide with surprise. Luna looked from Nightmare to the Mask, and gently rubbed one of its spikes.

"Yes, that does seem like something he would do." Celestia focused on the Mask herself, before turning and walking away towards the castle.

"Come on Lulu." She said with a chuckle, the tension finally leaving Celestia's shoulders a bit. "Its been a long day, and I want to relax for a while." She said with a yawn. She glanced towards Nightmare Moon. "And I don't think we have to worry about Nightmare." She smirked. Luna, confused, looked up and over to Nightmare, who was really close to her, staring down at the Mask in her arms with a look of adoration. A look that didn't exactly look right on the mare that Luna knew was evil. It clicked slightly in Luna's brain, and she smiled lightly, before muttering softly to herself.

"We are the same mare, so we think alike..

"What was that?" Nightmare snapped back to attention at the sudden noise next to her. She looked to Celestia and Luna, both of whom were smirking at her.

"What?"

Luna and Celestia laughed as they made their way towards the castle, Nightmare in tow, lagging behind due to the glowing yellow chains weighing her down.

Author's Note

There we go, everything that needed explaining is there now.
What do you guys think?

Groundbreaking Problems

I looked around, and I was disgusted.

I was disgusted at myself for everything that happened. It was all my fault that Majora was able to get free. My fault that Majora had enough power to level half the castle AND run away.

Glaring upwards, my rage at myself petered out, and was replaced by the unending guilt that I had cost Fourteen ponies lives. However, my rage wasn't gone, it was only focused on the floating mass of grey that sat a few hundred feet above the castle. My orange eyes glowed with my anger, as I reached inside myself for what I needed. I knew that Majora was the reason for the moon's placement, and that only the same power could move it back.

I dug, until I hit the wall inside my own mind. This wall was my own safety lock that kept Majora and it's power away from the Mask and myself. Yeah, it was weird finding out that Majora was simply sealed in the Mask like I was. The magic around the seal was old, and honestly, the power behind it was simply ridiculous. But we'll cross that bridge when we need to, for now I knocked on the lock I kept on Majora.

And by knock, I mean I plowed right through it and grabbed the manifestation of Majora before it could do anything.

"What do you need with us?!" Majora's screech was faded. Good, it didn't have the willpower left to stop me right now.

"That's a simple answer." My White fuzz hand gripped the Red bolt of magic tighter. "You aren't the Mask, but your power is just as much mine as the emotions you stole from me are." Majora squirmed in my grip. "And if I wasn't absolutly positive that forcing you out would cause more problems than good." Majora stopped squirming, and I could swear it had a grin on it's non-existent face.

"You are correct. The mask seals both you and Us in it. It is Magical in nature and thus draws it's power from both of us." Majora said while simply floating in my grip.

"Great, now that we covered that, give me your half of the power so I can fix the moon." I demanded as I let go of Majora. It immediately zipped around me, much like an agitated fly.

"Who are you to make demands of Us?!" Majora's screech was louder than earlier. "You have no control over Us!" It picked up its speed, and suddenly it zipped upwards and disappeared into the Black void that made up its residence. I looked around, waiting for it to come back, but I couldn't even feel it's malicious magic any more.

"Damn.." I silently cursed to myself, as I left the space, and locked the door behind me.

With a quick thought, I was back outside, my gaze still focused on the moon. My eyes flashed a deeper Orange as my anger peeked.

"Move.." I pulsed my magic, I felt the telltale signs of my magic flowing through the Mask. The Mask itself began emitting an aura of Purple and Red magic.

"Move!" I pulled more magic from myself, and forced it into the Mask. The waves of Red and Purple now flowing freely enough to swirl in my vision. The Mask's eyes glowed even brighter, to the point that It's Orange glow started mixing with the magic around me. Even with all this, the moon just sat there, taunting me.

Even now I couldn't do anything!

The magic flow around me started to wane, as did the glow from the Mask's eyes. I looked inside myself and found myself remembering pieces of what happened during my time split apart. A flash of Luna laying on the ground, her horn petering out as she put all she had to stop the moon from falling. Another flash of even Celestia in Fierce Deity mode sending a wave of magic up at the moon, and it still not stopping, all while she fought Majora.

If everyone else had given a hundred percent, then why wasn't I?

Was I scared? ..No, I wasn't.

I'm not some scared child who was afraid of what would happen!

I reached inside myself once more, and grasped at what I came to know as my magic. I pulled it out.

All of it.

"Move!" I cried out, my voice once more reverting to the screech of Majora. In a blast of force my magic exploded out of the Mask. The White of my own magic mixing with the Red and Purple of the Masks own amplified magic. Even as the Orange glow from the eyes returned full force, the Mask was trying to absorb my magic in an attempt to amplify it again. The movement of magic caused a small tornado of lights around me. I heard a groaning, and watched as the moon itself was being pushed back. Slowly, but surly the moon was moving away from the castle and back into the sky.

I couldn't keep it up however. I needed to speed it up if I wanted any chance of finishing this. I took hold of the White magic, my magic, that I had forced out from myself, and began force feeding it into the Mask. The mask itself began to glow slightly, as the amount of magic it was amplifying had reached heights it had never worked with before. The moon was pushed farther away, it's speed picking up slightly.

"More!" I called, Almost all of the magic I had was now being syphoned into the mask, and the glow coming from it was.. Dark. The Purple had changed to a Black and the Red had darkened into a deep blood color. The moon was now more than halfway back to where it was originally. Just a little bit more..

"Mor-"

*Crk!*

A cracking noise echoed through me head, and my magic faded instantly. As did the Dark Light that was emanating from the Mask. I watched faintly as the moon kept going on sheer momentum, even as my vision blurred and blackness creeped up and swallowed my sight.

----Third Person----

The few ponies that stayed in the immediate area stopped their cheering. As the Mask that had, up until just now, been pushing the moon back into the sky, simply fell down the ground with a clatter.

The group of Ten or so ponies all murmured to themselves about what could have been wrong. One little yellow pegasus filly simply ran though the group and up the hill where the Mask had been performing it's magic. Despite the outcry from the filly's mother, she kept running up the hill until she got to the top. Upon noticing the Mask lying face up on the ground she stopped moving.

"H-hello?" Her voice was small, and she was laying herself down as close as she could to the ground. Not hearing a response, she got up a little, and looked over to the Mask, where she noticed Two things. The first was that the Mask was no longer glowing, even though she knew it was glowing before it started using it's magic to help them. Even it's eyes weren't glowing anymore.

The second was the crack running down the center of the Mask starting at the top and going all the way down to where a nose would be. She slowly walked over to the mask and bent down at it's side.

"A-are you okay?" Her voice louder, but full of worry. When she didn't get a response again, she simply reached down and picked it up. The Mask weighed almost nothing to even a filly like her, and her curiosity overrode her worry for a bit. She flipped the Mask around in her hands as she inspected it thoroughly. Checking out the detail in the front of it. Curiously looking at the various different Orange's used in coloring the eyes. How the mixture of both Violet and Maroon colors made the bright Orange stick out even though they weren't glowing. Flipping it over, she inspected the inside. Finding the inside completely smooth, and it even looked soft. She touched it gently with a couple fingers, her eyes opened wide at the silky feel it had. She just wanted to wear it!

She looked around and saw that, from the angle she was kneeling, nopony on the ground could see her. She let a smile creep onto her face as she gently raised the Mask to her face. Amazingly she could see through the eyes as she held the Mask up to her eyes. Right before she could attach the Mask to her face however..

"Don't.." A voice called softly through her head.

"Do it!" Another voice called out loudly in her head. It was loud enough to snap her out of whatever curiosity she was stuck in. She quickly tore the Mask away from her face and pulled it to her chest as she got up and made a mad dash down the hill. She walked up to her mother as the mare kneeled down to her daughter's level.

"Fritter! What have I told you about going off on your own like that?" The mother glared at her daughter.

"But mommy, the Mask thing needed help!" Fritter held up the Mask to her mother. She gasped at what her daughter was holding. She gently grabbed it from her daughter's hands and looked at it. She gently rubbed a thumb over the crack that ran down it's middle. She was about to inspect it further, when her daughter grabbed it from her hands. Fritter held the Mask close and tight as she sent a glare to her mother.

"Come on, we have to go see the Princesses!" She nudged her mom towards the castle.

"Honey, that mask is dangerous-" The mother tried to reason with Fritter.

"Nuh-uh! It just put the moon back for us! How Is that bad?" She asked her mom, the little filly's eyes had confusion in them. The mother looked up, and then sighed. Her frown turning into a smile as she looked at her daughter.

"Your right sweetie, lets go." She rubbed her daughters head lovingly as they made their way to the castle.

They came to the castle gate and walked up to the guards stationed there.

"Halt! What's your business?" The feminine voice called out to them. Fritter simply held up the Mask for the guards to see.

"I'm sorry, my daughter would like to give this back to the Princess if you don't mind." The mother said with a bow. The guards looked at each other, then back to the mother and daughter.

"Fine, I'll lead you in to the throne room." A male voice came from the other guard. With a nod they followed him inside the castle. They looked around in awe at the amount of things strewn about the walls. Stuff that looked like it belonged in some kind of museum. A sword here, and spear there, and many different trinkets lay posted on the walls and on stands.

A sudden knocking caught there attention as the guard stood at the door.

"Your Majesty's! Somepony wishes to give you something!" He called out, his voice loud and booming. It was only after a few seconds did they hear a response.

"Enter!" Celestia's voice was heard from inside. As soon as the words hit their ears, the guards was already pushing on the door to let them in.

"Be on your best behavior." The guard mumbled to them as he simply stood in the doorway. The two walked in, as the mother kept her head down, Fritter had stars in her eyes. She was in front of the Princesses! She looked at them, since she had never been this close before.

"What brings you hear this morning?" Celestia's voice was calm, yet to the point. She looked down at the mother and daughter in front of them, and gently smiled at the little one that was staring at her and her sister with such open affection. She was surprised when the mother gently nudged her daughter with an elbow, gaining the little ones attention from the staring. Celestia watched as the filly smiled sheepishly as she pushed her hands up in her direction. In her hands lay-

"What?!" Luna jumped from her seat in the thrown, landing down next to the filly and her mother. She gently kneeled down so she could look at the Mask being held up, as she gently placed a hand on the Mask.

"What happened?" Luna asked softly, her hand gently tracing the crack.

"The weird Mask thingy pushed the moon away with its beautiful magic! But just when the moon was about back to normal it collapsed to the ground." The little filly said, as she withdrew her hands, and the Mask, to her chest. Luna looked at her with confusion.

"I went to check on it, and almost put it on when I saw how pretty it is." Her words made both Luna and Celestia flinch slightly. "But a voice told me not to in my head." The filly smiled, as she hugged the Mask to herself tighter. "The voice was so nice and soft. It sounded like it didn't want me getting hurt, kind of like how mommy talks." At this Luna smiled and felt her pride for her friend rise.

"But then some mean sounding voice told me to put it on.. I didn't like that one. Can you bring the nice voice back? Pretty please?" The little filly asked Luna as she handed over the Mask with big puppy eyes.

Luna gingerly took her friend from the filly and looked the Mask over herself. Her eyes roamed over the multicolor surface of the front of it, and stopped at the eyes. So used to seeing the glow from them, she couldn't help the small gasp as she saw nothing, not even a spark of Orange. A determined look appeared on her face, as she gently placed the Mask onto her face.

----Inside the Mask----

Luna looked around, her eyes scanned the surrounding area. She knew she wasn't in her mind, which was weird, since that's were they had always gone when she wore it. She saw a bunch of different terrains, much like her own mind. To the North was a large Mountain surrounded by smaller mountains and it even had a village hidden away next to it. The whole area looked to be covered completely in snow.

Snowhead

She heard a voice whisper into her head, looking around she saw nopony else in the sky around her. She looked to the east and saw a rather large tower made of a carved out mountain. Surrounding it was a rocky plain that was littered with the feeling of death and loneliness.

Stone Tower Temple

The same whisper, another name. Luna turned her attention again, this time to the south. She saw a lush forest surrounded in Purple water. The forest was so thick she couldn't make out anything else.

Woodfall

Luna was getting tired of the whisper, but it seemed to be helping her understand what was going on. She turned to the West now, only to see a vast and deep ocean. As far as she could see, that's all there was. Except a strange island deep outside the boundary of which she could see.

Great Bay

Luna was about to ask what this all meant when the sound of explosions sounded from underneath her. She looked down and saw that there was a town sitting in the middle of a field of sorts. The field was full of monsters and-

Termina Field

Irritated, Luna continued. -And the town itself seemed to be made into Four main sections.

Clock Town

"Alright! Who is that?!" Luna asked aloud. She looked around, and didn't spot anypony. She sighed as she looked around the town really quick. It seemed to be in the middle of a festival, if the colorful explosions were any indication. She honestly could watch them for a while, if she wasn't on a mission.

She looked around, scanning the town for signs of her friend, either Mask or that fuzzy form he takes. She saw a bunch of people, some clapping their hands, and some huddled up like they were scared.

You must hurry
He needs you

Luna's attention was drawn as the weird clock tower in the middle dropped its ball thing and opened up both on top and a way in on the side. What she saw inside the dome was.. Well weird. Floating in the sky slightly above the dome was a small creature its arms folded and it was lazily floating in the air much like Nightmare did as Majora took over. In fact the creature indeed did have the Mask over his face. It was talking downwards into the dome. When Luna looked farther down she quickly found herself more confused.. For a few seconds.

Inside the dome, standing on the ground was a young boy in Green, brandishing a sword and shield. Fortunately Luna was close enough to the ground to hear the conversation.

"Skull Kid, stop this! You don't know what your doing! I don't want to have to use the Giants on you!" The boy in Green said, sheathing his sword, and plucking out an Ocarina. Skull Kid simply laughed.

"Well whatever. Even if they were to come now, they wouldn't be able to handle me... Hee, hee. Just look above you... If it's something that can be stopped, then just try to stop it! " The voice she had begun to recognize as Majora spoke. She looked up at his words and gasped.

The moon!

The moon of this world was hovering a few feet from her. How she didn't see it was a mystery to itself. She looked back to the talking boys. As the boy in Green lifted his instrument to his lips, he paused, and clutched his head. Instantly his posture changed.

Gone was the brave stature, and willingness from before. Now he stood hunched over, like he was hurt, and he was sweating profusely.

The Boy in green then started to fade out, leaving a fuzzy outline of White and Black spots. The child floating in the air disappeared as well, only the Mask remained floating.

"Oh come now, you barely lasted long enough to be fun!" Majora called out. Luna watched as her friend fell to one knee as he panted.

"You and your sick games! I wont let you win!" He called out to Majora. His body flashed Green for a second. There was a silence, until Majora floated over to where her friend lay.

"You don't have a say in this anymore, without your magic you have no hold on Us.".

It was this moment that Luna decided that she had seen enough, as she flew towards Majora, intending to smash the mask away from her friend. Instead she flew right through the Mask like it wasn't even there. Upon landing on the ground, she felt herself change. Instantly she felt all but the most basic levels of her magic disappear, as she also felt her body solidify. In a flash of Green she was wearing the same Green tunic that the boy from earlier had worn, albeit a few alterations to suit her.. Now 'Teenage' body.

"Damnit Luna! What are you doing here?!" Her friend asked, walking back over to her even as he changed back to the same Green clad boy from earlier. Majora's laughing caught their attention however.

"Now now, you don't need to yell at the poor horse."

"What?!" Luna's outcry was drowned out by the groaning of the moon.

"Shit!" The boy swore as he held up the Ocarina to his mouth playing a very odd Melody. The song seemed to echo out around them halting all noise in the process. After a few moments he stopped playing, and like magic the music continued to play. It was only after another minute of silence did something disturb the oddly serene music. It was Majora's high pitched laughing.

"Your a fool! You haven't done anything yet! How could you summon the giants if you haven't even been outside Clocktown yet?" Majora's laughter continued until it petered out. "Well then, We guess it's our turn then?" Luna could almost feel the tension in the air as Majora leaned backwards and stared up at the moon. Suddenly the moon's face began to glow a deep Red-Orange. A sudden sense of urgency hit her as she looked to her friend.

He was already bringing her into a makeshift hug. She blushed slightly at the contact, and when she went to back off, he held her tighter.

"Dont move!" He hissed angrily, as he pulled the Ocarina up to his face again. She was surprised at the sheer audacity that he would play music at a time like This..

The music played Twice, once as he played it, and the second, happened when she found herself falling through a White void?! Everything got brighter and brighter until she had to blink. As soon as she did, she found herself standing in front of that clock tower. She looked around confused, as she remembered the moon falling!

She jerked her head up so fast she heard a crack.

"Ouch, I think I felt that!" The voice of her friend called out from behind her. She jumped slightly at the sudden noise behind her. Turning around, she saw him, standing there with his arms folded behind his head, smiling.

"Wh-What was that? What was all of that?!" Luna demanded. She glared as her friend simply shrugged off her malicious glare and lightly tossed his Ocarina before catching it again.

"That was the Song of Time. A very useful and powerful song. It's magic allows the passage of time to be altered and reversed. In this case, we go back Three days. It takes Three days for Majora to gather the necessary negative and magical energy to pull the moon down." His response was.. Straightforward. She wasn't expecting it, so she coughed into her hand before continuing.

"Time is not something that is easily toyed with! No mere Ocarina could alter time!" She retorted. She watched as his eyebrow rose, and he sighed. She smiled, thinking she had won the argument, until he spoke.

"Well, we did just go back in time, if you don't trust me, I can always do it again." He responded, raising his Ocarina again. Luna jumped forward, grabbing his hand forcing it to lower away from his face. As that happened he gently blew a raspberry while winking at her. "Thought so." He chuckled lightly, causing Luna to puff out a cheek in annoyance. She straightened up as she looked him over, just now realizing that he had a body. One that wasn't White fuzz, and such. She gently reached a hand over, and cupped his cheek. He jumped at the sudden contact and looked at her confused.

"You have a body." She said gently, her voice soft like the boy before her would break if she spoke too loud. He chuckled at her words, and grabbed her hand from his cheek.

"Yeah, this is the body of the Hero of Time, heh, go figure. Oh!" He paused for a second, he snapped a finger. "While we're here, you can call me 'Link" okay? It'll be weird if I don't have a name ya'know?" He smiled, catching Luna off guard.

"Link?" She asked, testing the name out herself. He nodded at her.

"Yup, it the name of the Hero of Time. He went on a few different adventures, all revolving around his travel between time to save his world." His smile brightened. Luna smile back, as she felt the happiness radiating off of him. Her attention was drawn as he fidgeted slightly.

"What's wrong Link?" She asked.

"Are you any good with a sword?" He asked suddenly, his smile dropped, as worry appeared on his face. Luna nodded her head.

"Yes, I can compete with my sister in armed combat quite evenly." She was surprised when he thrust his sword and shield in her direction. She looked to him, seeing his bright smile back and went to grab them.

"Great! I really suck at using them myself.. I'll stick with Long range and diversion tactics!" He grinned ear to ear. As Luna equipped the sword and shield she found herself being pulled along as Link ran down the street. He turned a corner and ran up a hill, Luna following right behind him. He stopped at a small stand with a young boy wearing a green suit of sorts. Link waved hello to the boy and started talking to him.

"How are you today?" Links asked, a small smile still on his face, like he knew something was going to happen.

"Hello! I'm fine, how about.. Do I know you? Hold on a second.." The young man reached out and grabbed Link's hand and quickly let it go after looking at seemingly nothing. "Ah, your the little guy that deposited Two Hundred Rupee's. What can I do for you today?" He asked Link cheerfully.

"I'll need the full Two Hundred Rupee's today." Link said without missing a beet, and Luna watched as the young banker grumbled.

"Your not going to get far if you spend all your savings like this." The banker told Link as he handed him a small bag with a gem embolden on it. He took it happily and put it in his pocket.. Where she had seen him pull out a fair number of things so far..

"Don't worry, I'll start saving real soon!" Link said, acting the part of a small child awfully well. He began walking across the street to the nearest store that had a sign that read: General Store. But before they could enter, Luna grabbed his attention.

"Link.." She started.

"Luna, don't.." Link said, like he knew what she was going to say.

"You said we went back in time.." She began again.

"Luna you really don't want to.." Link tried again to stop her.

"But that boy knew you, and had money stored for you.. How? That's just not-" Luna stopped, her eyes going cross as smoke began seeping from her ears. Link just smiled lightly as he shook his head.

"Told you not to do it. It's just one of those things you don't question. Just learn to take the gift you've been given." He scoffed slightly. "Besides, do you know how annoying it would be to have to go grind for money before starting any quests? You'd waste a whole day doing it before you get anything done.." He muttered to himself. Luna perked up, slipping from her trance.

"Grind?" She asked, testing the new term out. Link looked at her sheepishly, as he opened the door and walked into the store.

"Yeah, it uh, means to continue to do the same thing over and over to get items and other things." Luna cocked her head to the side, as Link face-palmed lightly. "We're playing a version of the game I mentioned when I came here." At those words Luna understand what was going on. His knowledge of the surroundings and use of that Ocarina and its songs. She watched as he went ahead to the counter and purchased something. When he came back, she was ready with questions. As they made their way back to the Clock Tower, she confronted him.

"First question-" She started, grabbing his shoulder and spinning him around.

"Shoot." He motioned with his hand with a small smile on his face.

"Why cant I feel my magic?" She asked. Links smile disappeared, and his face went serious.

"Well then, starting off with the hard ones huh? Well, My guess was that when you made contact with the ground here, you became part of Majora's plan. With what little I know, me and you are now the combined Hero of this game. And the Hero didn't exactly have the mystical arts you used to have, so they vanished. To answer the next one, no, I don't believe your stuck here." He said slowly.

"How did you know I was going to ask that?" Luna asked. She watched as Link's face turned solemn, as a sad smile crossed his face.

"I figured you would want to leave as fast as possible. In fact you should be able to leave once we get back the first Remnant." His tone was dull. "It's gonna be a pain in the butt, since we have no items, but we have to start with something." Luna nodded with vigor, But stopped upon remembering something.

"What did you buy at that store? I never did get to see it." Link's serious face disappeared and back was the light grin.

"Right!" He started fishing around his pockets. "I had seen it on my first trip around the town before the reset, and I deffinatly don't remember there being one in this game." He withdrew his hand from his pocket and in it was a weirdly shaped stick split near the end into two prongs, with a band wrapped around each prong. "This, is the Slingshot. It flings pebbles or other small objects. I probably can't kill any monsters with it, but I sure as hell can be annoying until I get the Hero's Bow." He deftly twirled the Slingshot a bit before sliding it into a small holder on his hip. "Wasn't sure If I could equip the thing, but that makes this whole thing a bit better." He mumbled before digging through his pocket again. He took out a bag that had a small explosive logo on it. "It took a bit of bargaining, but I got us both Bomb Bags. This nifty bag can hold up to Thirty bombs." He tossed one bag over to Luna. She looked inside and saw a small assortment of small Blue bombs. Luna shook her head with a smile as she put the bag in her own pocket. He then lead her to a gate being guarded by a guard in Grey armor.

"Halt! Only adults allowed outside. Termina Field is teaming with monster-" The guard started.

"See ya on the other side!" Link chuckled as he rolled underneath the guards legs. The guard himself grumbled about 'Stupid kids these days', as he looked back at Luna. He straightened up immediately though.

"Oh, you have a sword. Well, just be careful out there. Tell your friend that too." He said as he stepped aside letting Luna go. She chuckled to herself as she made her way outside, where Link was running around in the waist high grass. She smiled, as he was laughing like a little kid. She was a little sad on the inside, when she realized that she had never seen the version of him in the Mask let out so much emotion. Link stopped his running when he was in front of her, raising his arms up and crossing them behind his head.

"Just for your information, he wont let you through without a sword, so I'll have to do that every time we leave town on foot." He chuckled, and waved her on towards a large tree. She remembered this being the area that lead to that forest area. She was cut from her thinking as Link grabbed her and threw her under the grass. Just as she was about to get up and yell at him, a big bird swooped down from where she was standing. It's cry rung out as it was pelted on the head with a rock, it started flapping it wings franticly and lifting itself back into the air and away from the two.

"Thats right ya stupid bird! Git!" Link hollered at the flying bird. He eyed it for a good minute before he turned to Luna, still glancing in its direction. "We have to move quick. That bird is called a Takkuri, and it's a beginners trap. If it hits us, we lose a random item in our inventory. That includes important items like sword or the Ocarina." He said as he lead her though the area as he flicked the bird with a few more rocks to keep it away. Luna nodded her head now keeping a close eye on the bird as well.

"This world is full of terrible things, isn't it?" Luna asked as they made their way into the next area. It lead to a strange house sitting above the weird Purple water. Link seemed to be mulling a few thing's through his head, he even looked up to gauge the time. His eyes widened as he quickly took out his Ocarina and played a Song

Suddenly everything felt weird, but just as fast, it went back to normal. She blinked, waiting for something to happen, as the song sounded a lot like the one used to go back in time. She watched as Link quickly placed the Ocarina back into his pocket and smiled.

"There we go, I almost forgot to do that." When he saw the confused look on Luna's faced, his smile turned sheepish. "Oh right. Playing the Song of Time backwards has the affect of slowing time down to half. What was Three days will seem more like Six days now." At his explanation, Luna's eyes widened considerably.

"Wha- But- How?!" Luna shook her head and groaned before she simply sighed and crossed her arms in front of her chest.. "I should try to get used to stuff like that, right?" She asked.

"Yup! That Ocarina can do all kinds of things." He chuckled, as they made for the waters edge. He stopped before a bunch of Lily pads that lead across the water. "The water here isn't poisoned from the monster that took over the area. We can use these lily pads to get across so you can get used to it before we get to where we can die." Luna nodded in understanding, she could see the Purple water in the distance. As Luna made to jump, he reached out and held her back. "Hold on a second! As you are, you'll make them sink as you land on them. Let me go first." He reached into his pocket again, as Luna's face grew red.

"Are you calling me fat?!" Luna screeched, her face red with anger. She calmed down quickly after seeing him pull out a Mask from his pocket. It looked like the face of a strange tree or plant creature. It was Brown like wood, and had an open circle mouth that protruded outwards slightly. It's eyes didn't glow, but they looked like they should, as they were orange. Her eyes widened when he pulled the Mask over his face and he hunched over, as if in pain. The sound of cracking was heard, much like when her sister put of the 'Fierce Deity' Mask. It was even followed by his guttural scream of agony at the end as he was bathed in a flash of light.

Luna blinked and looked down. In front of her now stood a rather small wooden creature, it only came up to her knee's. It's face was exactly like the Mask from earlier, only the eyes were now alive and looking around. It wore Links Green hat and the lower half of his tunic..

"Link?" She asked softly. The creature spun around and faced her quickly. With a nod of its head it spoke.

"Yup!" Luna's eyes went starry at his voice. Gone was the young man's voice from a minute ago, now it was higher, and slightly echoed to the point that it was adorable. "Jeeze, what is with that voice?" Link asked himself. He found himself tugged into a hug as quickly as he spoke.

"Your adorable!" Luna called out as she nuzzled the top of his head. Link pushed his way out of her arms and stood a few feet from her. His cheeks had a slightly darker hue of brown as he turned around quickly.

"This is another Transformation Mask like the Fierce Deity Mask. I went through the beginning of the game trapped like this until I got my Ocarina back. Using another Song I broke the Magic holding me in this form, and now the Mask itself is bound to me." Link explained, while edging his way out to the waters edge up until his knees. "This is the form of a Deku Scrub. They are very light, and very fragile. They have an innate ability to hide in impossibly small spaces to avoid danger. They also can't swim. He said as he jumped onto the water's surface. Luna gasped as he did so, thinking she would have to grab him from the shallow water. However, she watched in awe as he lightly tapped a foot on the water's surface and bounced off it. He repeated twice and landed on the Lily pad without it even moving or bobbing in the water.

"I get Five bounces until I sink. Unfortunately you don't have the option, as the lily pad will start sinking immediately after you make contact. You need to plan out how you move and when. Since there are Two of us me going first is necessary, and this will happen a lot in the area we're going." Link continued, before hopping across the next couple of pads. Luna gave a running start and followed after her traveling companion.

She only fell in once, and it was near the end.

As they walked through the archway that lead to the next area, they watched as what looked to be a witch fly out of the woods to their left and into the building in the tree in front of them. Link continued in towards the woods on the right. Luna followed him in, and in front of them was a bouncing.. Monkey? Before Luna could step towards it, Link stopped her again. She glared down at the little Deku Scrub that blocked her.

"This is the Woods of Mystery. If you get lost, simply walk a random direction and stay near the entrance." Luna scoffed, how would she get lost? She took a step closer to the monkey and it began running around.

"Follow!" It spoke.

In a flash of movement, the monkey zipped around the room and left through the left doorway. She watched as Link's little Deku body ran quickly after it, leaving her flabbergasted in the room. She gathered herself quickly and raced through the door, only to almost run into Link. He was coming from the left, running towards the right doorway. Luna ground her heels into the dirt to stop her momentum and turn to the right. She ran into the next room but found herself jumping backwards due to a spinning shell of some kind charging her from her right. She caught a small glimpse of Green flutter through the door directly across from her. Using her shield she bounced the spinning spike ball aside and ran full tilt at the doorway. She slid to a stop on the other side as she looked around for signs of where to go. All she saw was the woods themselves and all she could hear was some music lightly playing in the background. Sighing, she collapsed to her knees to regain her energy.

"How can I lose a monkey and a talking tree root?" She growled lightly. She waited a minute or so, and got up to leave. As she walked to the edge of a doorway, she heard something coming from it. Suddenly a monkey leapt over her using her shoulder as a platform. Just as quickly she watched Link rush through the door, doing some little spin trick that made him go faster. He spun right through her legs and called out.

"This way!" He went through the left most doorway from her position. Luna pinched the bridge of her nose and walked over to the doorway, and noted the small group of monkeys run past her.

"Thanks little Deku, that accursed Skull Kid knocked me off my broom with his magic!" The witch kneeling on the ground in front of Link had said. In a puff of smoke, she was floating into the air on a broom. "I run the Swamp Tour, come by and I'll let you on for free." The witch said as she flew off, over the woods.

Link sighed, as he made for one of the signs that read 'Wrong way' on them.

"You ready? We're halfway to the dungeon now.." He grumbled. Luna couldn't help but chuckle at the way his voice sounded.

----Ten Minutes Later----

"Ugh, that boat ride is so much longer in person!" Deku Link grumbled. He turned to Luna, only to find her frozen stiff and the color gone from her face. He gently poked her knee to get her to move, when she grabbed him and held him tight.

"Why are there giant Octopus things too?!" She whined. Link slid out of her grasp, and walked across the wooden bridge leading to a large castle of sorts. He confused her however, when he jumped over to a lily pad next to the middle.

"Where are you going?" She asked.

"I need to get inside and re-learn a song. Just wait there, you cant get far without being a Deku anyway. I won't be long." He started spinning across the water, and bouncing like a skipping tone.

Not Five minutes later, she heard him cry out from behind her. She turned to see him get flung over the Two stationed guards and landing roughly a few feet from her. He jumped up and brushed himself off.

"Even in person the King is still an ass." He growled out, as Luna laughed at his high pitched anger. She watched him bounce over to a ledge she didn't notice across the water. She carefully made her way across, being wary of the Purple water. She climbed up the ladder and stood next to a confused Link.

"There are switches? Why are there switches?" He paused for a brief moment, before he groaned. "In order to make it accessible to both of us, the game changed.. I hope that it doesn't change the dungeons.." He muttered, as he dove into the nearest Pink Deku Flower. Luna watched with interest as he popped back out and used flowers to fly through the air a short distance. When he landed on the next platform across from them, he spun and hit a tall crystal looking thing. It chimed and turned black as a pathway appeared out of thin air. The soft ticking made her realize that it was a timed event. They did the same thing over and over again, slowly gaining height as they made their way to the waterfall.

"So this if different?" Luna asked as she crossed another bridge. Deku Link huffed in annoyance as they walked into the next area.

"Yeah, but I knew the game was different when I got the slingshot." He looked over at Luna and waver her in front of him. She looked over, and saw that it was the same thing they were just doing, only there were enemies in their way. She sighed, and heard Link chuckle behind her.

"Get used to it, this place will make you use and abuse what you have." He told her as he followed behind her. After slowly trudging their way up the spiral, they made it to a pedestal. Link looked around, and spun into a pot that rested on the top. Out came a small Pink fairy, which he shoved in the bottle. He lightly tossed the bottle to Luna, who almost dropped it. "Keep that on you, that witch gave me two bottles. I'm now assuming one was meant for you. it'll come in handy." He said seriously before he brought out some strange instrument. Instead of the Ocarina, it was a mess of Pipes.. That were all connected to the same mouth piece. He quickly played out a new Song and suddenly a strange temple came jutting out of the water. Link put away the Deku Pipes and looked to Luna.

"That was the Sonata of Awakening. It has the power to wake up anything sleeping, be it Spirits or even temples. It's a song only pssed down in Deku royalty." He paused as Luna gave him a curious look. "Forgot to mention, we're here to save a the Deku Princess. Preferably before they cook a monkey because he was at the scene of her disappearance.." He muttered the last bit to himself as he jumped into another Pink flower. He quickly shot out and floated lazily over the gap to the temple. Another switch and Luna was right beside him as they entered the temple.

Link stopped suddenly as Luna kept walking to get a better look around. She saw a lot in the first room, as it was full of platforms and stairs and even more of that poison water.

"This place is amazing! Creepy, but amazing!" She turned to Link, "So where do we start?" She asked. When he didn't answer, she crouched down by him and poked his forehead. He flinched, broken out of his inner thoughts, and rushed by her to the edge of the platform and looked out at the room.

"This.. This isn't right. The dungeon should be a minimum of Six rooms all looping back to each other." His eyes followed the stairs that lead to a locked door, then they darted to the other side that had an eye sitting above another door. "This whole dungeon is different.." His eyes dropped down to the poison water, and a big golden door surrounded by it. "Its all in one room?!" Link sighed as he turned back to Luna. She was still crouched there, waiting for him.

"Well what do we do then?" She asked, sounding agitated. She watched as Link turned around and dove into a Pink flower. Hopping out and floating over to one of the many platforms. Upon hitting the crystal a bridge opened up to the platform to his right, instead of to her. She chuckled as she heard the little Deku curse loudly.

"I've gotta figure this room out first, or we'll be here all day!" He called over the gap. She watched in amusement as he moved from platform to platform mumbling to himself. A few minutes later a bridge appeared from nowhere to her right connecting to the platform that Link started on.

"Seriously?! Fuck this room!" Links voice was faint, from being on the exact opposite side of the room.

She almost fell off the platform laughing as Link threw a little tantrum. Wiping a tear from her eye she made her way onto the platform, and from there they made there way to the only unlocked door in the room. Upon entering it, there were more of those spikey turtles.

"Those are snappers, you can take them out by using bombs to flip them over and attacking with your sword." He proceeded to run into the room and dove into a Pink flower directly in front of them. The snapper looked over to her and starting spinning like the top it wasn't and zipped towards her. Luna fumbled around her pockets for her bombs and wound up just pulling her shield up to stop the Snapper. Right before it got to her, Link shot out of the ground and into the Snappers underside. A sickening 'crunch' was heard as it flipped upside down and slowly disappeared into the ground. Link landed next to her, his little circle mouth stretched into a smirk.

"Or you can run diversion while I do that." He said smugly." Luna scoffed and went for the other one to her left, leaving the one currently spinning at them from the right to him. She grabbed its attention as she grabbed a bomb from the bag in her pocket. Ignoring the fact that upon hitting the open air the bomb grew to be about the size of her head, she hurled it at the spinning Snapper. Hitting it dead center, it exploded causing the Snapper to flip upside down. Luna lunged at it, and swung her sword as rapidly as she could. After Three quick slashes it spun away from her with a screech and faded into the ground. She huffed as she breathed heavy from the excitement, turning back to where Link was she found him standing at the door leaning on it, no sign of the other Snapper to be found.

"In the future, when it's a One on One like that, going for stabs instead of slashes will dish out more damage in a shorter time." He lectured quickly as he opened pointed to the center of the room. Luna turned and watched a chest appear in a wave of light. Upon opening it, she found just a small key. With that done the Two left the room and made there way up the spiraling staircase connected to the platform. At the top was the door that required the key. Opening it up and walking in caused the door to slam shut behind them and then metal bars slid down to stop them from leaving.

Link ran in front and threw something at the ground, just as something fell from the roof. A strange Lizard walking on Two legs and holding a sword was caught in the light created from what Link threw at the ground. She watched as Link spun around it letting her have the front.

Luna charged the Lizard that was frozen in place and slashed it a few times, before remembering what Link told her about stabbing. When she went to stab it, it jumped into the air away from her. Luna chased after it and went for another slash. She was surprised when it block her sword strike with it's own sword, and did so for the next few attacks as well. There was a flash of light from behind it whena rock pelted it's head.

"Hey! Over here you overgrown Lizard!" Link's regular voice echoed through the small room, even as a few more rocked pelted it's head. As the Lizard jumped away from her she saw Link standing there with his Slingshot out, following it with it his eyes. He rolled to the side to avoid the downward slash from the air, and began doing a bunch of side jumps to dodge further slashes. With a slight smirk, he pulled back his slingshot's rubber band again, only it wasn't a rock this time. He let it go at the ground and another bright flash stopped the Lizard again. Seeing her chance, Luna jumped at the creature, landing a downwards slash of her own. Following up with a quick stab, she watched as the Lizard collapsed to the ground and disappeared into the ground. After making sure nothing else was going to attack, Luna sheathed her sword and shield and looked to Link. He had pocketed his Slingshot as well as he gave her a thumbs up and a smile.

"That was called a Lizalfos, easy if you know how to handle them." He said. Hearing the bars on the door slide back up, Luna turned to leave, but the sound of a chest appearing stopped her. Before she could even fully turn around Link was reaching into the chest with reckless abandon. "Yes! Finally!" Link called out, as he held up his new treasure. It was a simple Bow and Quiver, but she had never seen him so happy before- "~Reunited at last~" He sang out happily as he hugged it close.

-Scratch that, She would never see him this happy again apparently. She gave him a deadpan look as she motioned to the door. Upon noticing the look in her face, Link flung the Quiver onto his back and held onto the Bow with his left hand.

"This Bow is the Single most important item in the entire game, and one of the most useful." He countered, as he made his way outside. As soon as they stood back on the platform he took quick aim and shot an arrow across the large room, hitting the small eye sitting above the door. Luna squinted her eyes as she had trouble seeing the small target.

"How did you-?" She began.

"Practice my dear, a lot of practice." Link said proudly. He then pulled out the Deku Mask again as a platform from the bottom of the dungeon floated upwards. "Now, back to being this dungeons bridge maker.." He muttered. Luna laughed as he disappeared in a flash of light, being replaced by his smaller Deku body. He dove into the Pink flower sitting right there and made his way to the platform. Spinning to activate the crystal, Luna watched as a bridge appeared.. On the other side.

"What?! How the-" He grumbled the last bit to himself, as he looked up. He muttered a few things that Luna could only guess were insults or profanity. She watched in curiosity as he seemed to form a bubble out of his mouth. He let it loose and it flew wobbly up to the roof, smacking into another crystal that was hanging upside down. Another bridge formed shortly after, and Luna made her way across to Link. She even caught the last bit of another monologue.

"Stupid, asinine level design.. Making me do everything everywhere!" He grumbled as they made there way into the next room. The door once again was bared up behind them. As if snapped from his own inner musings, Link quickly took off his Deku Mask and pulled out his bow.

"Get your bombs ready." He said softly. Suddenly a Four foot tall frog jumped down from the roof. Before Luna could make any judgements on it's appearance other than that, it was shot by Three consecutive arrows, one to the shoulder, stomach and second shoulder. It howled and jumped back. It whistled out like it was calling something, and something came digging up from the ground. A Snapper, easily Three times the size of any other Snapper they had come across was standing in front of them. The frog jumped on top of it and laughed maniacally as the Snapper started spinning. Link dove to the left and Luna dove to the right, as the Snapper slammed into the wall and followed after Link. Luna took this chance to grab a bomb from her pocket, which was a lot easier after the first time. She lobbed it at the Snapper but missed and watched as the bomb just sat there and flashed red as it counted down from some sort of timer. She reached and pulled out another and lobbed it, this time ahead of the Snapper. It may not have hit it dead center, but with it too focused on Link it just rolled right into the bomb and it exploded, it even slid into the other bomb just as it exploded. The Snapper flipped over and launched the frog away from it. It jumped to the wall and started climbing it rapidly, even so much as sticking to the ceiling.

"Yay, your faster.. I'm not dealing with this garbage!" Link's voice called from behind Luna. She turned only to see Link holding his Bow sideways aiming up at the rapidly moving frog. His eyes and bow following it like it was more of an annoyance than a threat. But what really got Luna's attention was the fact that that Link didn't just have an Arrow notched on the bow, he had Three of them. The string of the Bow being held back by his whole hand rather than a few fingers, this let the Three arrows sit parallel to each other as the string was straight in his hand. With a small jump sideways he let the Arrows fly and soar towards the frog. It barely had time to blink before both its hands were pinned to the roof and the other Arrow lay wedged in it's neck. A slight gargle was all it got out before it slid off the arrows and into the ground, vanishing like everything else they had defeated. The same happed to the Snapper, as it didn't have a Master anymore. Luna watched as Link made his way to the back of the room and fetched the item from the fancy chest in the back. It had contained a rather Big Key, and they made there way back out to the platform.

"More changes?" Luna asked as Link looked down at the ground. He seemed to find what he was looking for as he turned to Luna.

"Just a minor one, so I made my own." He grinned, and pulled on his Deku Mask again.

"Now, when you see the water change color, jump into it, ok?" Without waiting for her response, he ran at the ledge and jumped off. Luna yelped in surprise as she rushed to the ledge. She watched as Link landed in the water.. Only to bounce away to the edge. A few moments later, the water changed to a clear blue. Shrugging her shoulders, she jumped.

She fell and landed in the water with a small splash. She looked over to Link, who was already unlocking the big Golden door. She rushed over and entered the room with him.

"In a rush?" She asked with a glare.

"I'm sick of this Temple already, I just want to get it over with." The door slammed down behind them and sealed them in. "Okay now, this boss will either be easy, or amazingly difficult. If I say 'Easy' that means I want you to wait and attack when I stun him. If I say 'Hard' I want you to keep your shield up at all times. Never pull it down, and never take your eyes off him." Luna nodded at his words, knowing fully that he knew what he was talking about. They made there way to the center of the room, and it suddenly lit up. Luna say a bunch of Deku flowers laying in the ground.

"Oh thank god, Easy!" Link called out, as he dove into a flower and popped into the air. As he did so, a large creature jumped from the roof, and stood with a sword in one hand and a shield in the other. On it's head it wore a Mask of it's own, it looked like a tribal Mask of sorts, kind of like a flower with a face on it?

Instantly it started to dance, it's janky movements made it hard to figure out what was a possible attack or just it moving around. Link dropped another of those nut things and caused it to hit the ground and flash the crazy dancing monster. It slumped over and revealed a glowing Purple eye on the top of it's Masked head. Luna took her chance and jumped up and landed a falling slash to it's head. She followed up with a few stabs.

The creature suddenly shot up, and jumped away from her. Just as it landed, Link was already floating above it sending another nut-bomb down to stun it. She jump attacked again, and repeated her stabs until the monster let loose a cry and flailed away from her. She watched as it clutched it's head and kneeled down on the ground.

"Is that it?" Link's presence beside her made Luna jump. She gently bopped him on the head with a scowl as she turned to scold him.
The creature quickly rose from it's hunched over position and did a weird dance. Link let out a surprised noise as he went to reach for his Mask.

In an instant a wave of fire erupted from it's position and made its way through both combatants. Luna had raised her shield as it washed over her, the flames only licking at her shoes. Just as she was about to ask Link what came next, she was horrified. Next to her was a small inferno, screeching in agony and rolling on the ground. Link's wooden body had ignighted before he could take off his Mask, as he smouldered into a dead husk. Steam and smoke rose from his now dead eyes and mouth, his whole body black from the fire, as it crumbled into a small pile of ash.

Luna could only gasp at the sight as she reached for his charred Green hat that lay on top. She stopped suddenly, as something strange happened. A small Pink fairy shot out of his hat and circled his ashes. It circled it so much that it became a pink light enveloping the wjole ash pile.

When the light died down, Luna couldn't help but gasp again as she saw the little Deku standing there with a bewildered look on his face. She dove at him and gave him a hug, tears streaming down her face.

"I thought you were dead!" She cried out. She was shocked when he quickly threw her arms off of her, but she realized why, when he reached up and yanked off his Deku Mask. Standing at his normal height he glared at the boss.

"Sorry, but that has to wait!" He yelled as he pushed her to the side as he dove to the oposite side. The monster's sword landing where they had both been just moments ago. Luna raised her shield as Link spoke again. "Switching to Hard mode at the last second was a dick move!" He said pulling an Arrow back and firing it at the boss only for it to swing it's sword and deflect it. It focused on Link as it danced it's way towards him.

"Try to get him to focus on you!" He called out to Luna. She nodded, as she rushed towards it. Link's words from before were still ringing through her head, so she kept her shield up and went for some stabs. It ducked under the stabs and kicked at her legs. Luna was sent tumbling to the ground as it turned to her, sword raised up for a strike. An Arrow lodged into its head, knocking it's aim off and making it slam it's sword into the ground. Luna got up and went for another stab, when it dodged backwards, she did another. At it's second dodge, and Arrow lodged into the other side of it's head, Luna lunged with a full force stab. It connected with its torso, and it stagared. Another arrow lodged into it's head on the back, and it fell over like it was tired.

"Now!" Link called from behind it. Without thinking about it, Luna jumped into the air and jammed her blade into the Monster's head all the way to the hilt.

Silence rained through the room, as the creature simply went limp. It's form began evaporating and Luna pulled her sword from it's disapearing corpse. All that remained was it's tribal Mask, that seemed to emit a strange yet powerful magic.

Luna and Link walked up to it, and both grabbed the Mask. It faded as soon as they did, and Luna felt some of Link's Magic returning. Non of her's returned however, and just before she could ask about it, she was blinded by a white light. She covered her eyes, and felt the telltale signs of being teleported.

When she lowered her arms, she found herself on a strange platform surrounded by white clouds that blurred out almost everything around her. In the distance, she could faintly see something big. She turned to Link, only to see him nod at the new being. She looked back to it, and watched it slowly not baqck, it whole upper body made the motion, as it seemed to be just a head and legs with arms. Just as she got comfy in this new place, she was teleported out with Link. They found themselves in some cave like structure with a grotto of sorts behind them.

"So." Link gained her attention. "I can send you back now, if you-"

"Yes! Get me out of here!" Luna cried out. Link just chuckled.

"Yeah, I figured as much. It sure was alot to take in wasn't it?" His smile faded. "Just a quick note, I can't leave until I have all my magic back."

"Don't worry." Luna smiled, as she drew him into a hug. "I'll be back, I just want to.. Take a break." She let out an axasperated sigh. Link chuckled, as he placed a hand on her forehead.

"Since I'm stuck in here, you can't, under any circumstances, let anyone else wear the Mask. I can't override what Majora does while I'm here." He spoke seriously. Luna nodded in understanding. Link smiled as he let her mind leave the Mask in a flash of Blue light.

"Now.. Which side quest to do?" He mused to himself.

----Canterlot----

Luna gasped, as the Mask fell from her face. Her eyes adjusting quickly to the light again as she looked around. She was in her bedroom, and so was her sister.

"Luna? Are you okay?" Celestia asked softly.

"Yes, very." Luna nodded, as her sister hugged her.

"And our little friend?" Celestia asked, barely a twinge of worry on her face. Luna chuckled lightly as she got a flash of Link in his Deku form when her sister said the word 'little'.

"He'll be fine, he just needs a little help inside the Mask." She explained Celestia seemed to be fine with that explanation.. For now.

"I'll expect a slightly more detailed explanation at dinner, Luna." Celestia said.

"Oh? Is Loonie awake?" A childlike voice called from outside.

"Oh right, Dissy came back from his trip." Celestia said with a smile. As the door opened up and a small creature walked in. His head was pony shaped, he has a deer antler on the right, a blue goat horn on the left, one long fang, different-sized pupils, a snake tongue, a small goat beard, and white bushy eyebrows. He has the right arm of a lion, the left claw of an eagle, the right leg of a lizard, and the left leg of a goat. In addition, he has a bat's right wing, a Pegasus' left wing, a horse's mane, and a dragon-like snake's tail with a white tail tuft. The shape of his body resembles that of a snake. Overall he was only half the size of either Luna or Celestia.

"Discord?" Luna groaned.

"Hi Loonie! I felt a massive wave of magic and I knew I needed to-" He stopped as he glanced at the Mask laying in her lap. It's eyes flashed Orange, and his eyes widened ever so slightly. He shook his head lightly, as he addressed Luna.

"What's that?" Discord asked Luna in his small voice. Luna grabbed the Mask, and got up from her bed.

"Nothing you need to know about little one." Her tone was sharp, as she followed her sister out of the room. Discord's eyes followed the Mask without blinking, and a small smile crept onto his face as he floated after the two. His own eyes flashed orange for but a brief moment.

Author's Note

God, this chapter took me Three tries to get right! I hope it came out okay.. Let me know okay guys?

Sorry for the long wait on an update.. I just couldn't get this to come out the way I intended..

Where Is My Everything?!

I found myself bored.. Why you ask? well, I'm currently sitting at a table in the middle of a Anime Convention. Why? My mask made of Paper Mache fell apart. I looked all over the place, but I couldn't find any booth that sold one. I had sat down all of five minutes ago, and was about to just get up and sulk around for one more look around.

Imagine my surprise when I noticed something odd. A booth just kind of, appeared. I saw some guy picking up a fancy Black hat, but what caught my eye, was the mask near his position. I jumped from my seated position, and started across the crowded floor. A few people got in my line of sight, but I was glad that the booth just didn't vanish like it had appeared. I entered, confused as the guy that was here just a moment ago had disappeared. I looked around, but jumped when a voice came from behind me.

"Oh?" His voice sent a shiver down my spine. I turned to see the one who spoke, and boy did it bring back some memories. This guy was fully decked out in a Resident Evil 4: Merchant costume. His face was even hidden from view, leaving only his eyes visible. "I don't normally sell to Two people in the same universe, you must have already had your eye on something. So, what can I get for you?" The man asked.

I found myself in awe at the mans mannerisms, they all fit the bill for acting as the Merchant. It was almost like he was the real deal. I shook my head and walked over to the mask. I held it up to the light to inspect it. It was amazing.

Majora's Mask

The single most iconic evil item in The Legend of Zelda, Ganon being the most iconic evil person. The mask was heart shaped, and colored a deep purple. Its main attributes were its spikes, jutting from the bottom of the heart shape on both sides. Four on each side, and on the top, it had One on each side, for a total of Ten spikes. It other feature that was most prominent, were the eyes. Its eyes were big, taking up about an eighth of the mask. They were a deep orange on the outside, that faded to a lighter orange as it went in, meeting a green circle that formed the pupil. The eyes even glowed like in the Game! I felt like I was holding the real Majora's Mask!

"This! I'll take this!" I announce proudly. Grabbing for my wallet. The Merchant guy cocked his head to the right, I could almost FEEL his smirk.

"Oh dear, that Mask is quite the deal. I've been trying to sell it for years now, so why don't you take it, and I'll only charge you Forty-Five dollars for it?" The man looked me dead in the eyes, as I looked at him with wide eyes and an open mouth. This Mask was a minimum Two Hundred and Fifty dollars, and he wanted to sell it to me for a fifth of that? Fine by me!

"Deal!" I almost screamed in his face, practically throwing the money at him. I turned around and held the Mask up to my face. The inside sure did look weird, almost like the Red tentacles that it uses in the boss-

Slurk

A pulsing Red tentacle wrapped around my head, as my eyes widened. It pulled itself onto my face, and my vision swam with different wavy colors, before I blacked out.

----Equestria: Everfree Forest----

I woke up, and opened my eyes, I could see the sun peaking through some tree's nearby, the sky was cloudless, and all in all, it looked like a damn good day to wake up. I tried getting up, only to realize my arms didn't even budge. I went to move my head to see what was wrong, when I realized I could move that either! I panicked, and tried to thrash about. All that accomplished was me getting angry at myself, and my vision rumbling around a bit.

Why? Why can't I move?! What the hell happened to me?

I calmed myself down after a few minutes, and I realized something. I wasn't quite as tied down as I thought I was. It's weird, but I'm not really.. Linked to my body? That sounds about right. Let me put it this way.

I can't physically turn my head, but my vision compensates for that. I can see all around me, which, let me tell you, took some time to get used to. Along with another panic attack, but I wont bore you with those details.

Next, I can't move my body, But I can shift my Attention inside my head, using my Thee hundred and Sixty degree vision as a basis. Did I tell you how wonky this feels? Its ridiculous! Congratulations me! In under Four hours we've managed to figure out how to look around!

..It's going to be a long night.

Speaking of which, I just watched the sun zip across the sky into a sunset.. Where am I?! I've got far to many questions that I can't even ask, because I don't have a mouth!

..Breath in, breath out.. Ok, I think I'm okay now. I just need to figure out how to move. I mean, if I can look around without eyes, I must be able to- Why am I moving?

I was moving.. With no air, no water and no strings. I was hovering? Why? What did I do different than any other time?! Well, no time for that now, While I was still floating, for whatever reason, I tried getting used to it, tried to adapt. Was it possible? Yes! Difficult? Oh obscenely! How is it that I not only do I see in every direction, but I can move in every direction? Seriously, up, down, left, right, diagonal, Spins! I can spin like a god damn top! All I have to do is Will my body to do what I want, and not actually try to do it. It was weird.

Breathing didn't seem to be helping anymore, there was just too much information, in so little time. I floated back down to the ground, as gently as I could. I rested in that one spot for a good few hours, the sun has long since been down, and the moon was big and beautiful. I think I stared at the moon for a good majority of the night, until something clicked in my head, as the moon started to head to the horizon to set for the sun. The rate that the moon went down reminded me of how you could watch the moon fall in Majora's Mask-

..No.. It would make since. Not having a body, seeing everything but myself, even floating! I had to know, I floated up- Heh, it was getting easier, it only took me Fifteen minutes to get off the ground this time. I floated over to a puddle, and looked into it, its muddy water barely reflecting anything. But it gave me the information I needed.

Glowing Orange eyes

I was Majora's Mask.. Heh, how the hell will this work?

"Is it coming from over here?" A feminine voice called out over the tree's.

Oh? People, well then, I doubt seeing a floating Mask will help their view of me much. I gently fell to the ground, careful not to make a clatter. I even dunked half of myself into the water, to make it look like I was discarded.

"Yes, the Magic fluctuations were coming from this direction." Another feminine voice called out. I was curious about what they were talking about with magic, until I spotted them. Looking like a regular human, only with slightly longer faces, and fur covering their bodies. Let alone the Horn on one of them, and the Wings on the other.

"Is that it?" The one with wings asked, did I tell you it was a girl? Even if she was in armor, You could clearly make out the increased chest area. She walked up to me, and I'm not going to lie, I got scared that she might step on me. Until I remembered that Majora's mask was said to be damn near unbreakable, which is why it was sealed away.

"The power fluctuations have stopped, so I am unsure." The other girl said, looking around. I was curious, if they could feel me assert my will on the Mask. So I opted for a slight change. I willed the Mask to increase the glow in it's eyes. And change it did. Instantly the one with the Horn turned her head to me, and pointed a finger at me.

"Its that Mask, grab it. We'll take it to the Princesses." I was suddenly grabbed by the one with wings. Her fingers gripped me tightly. I felt the soft fur make contact with the Mask. I felt each muscle in her hand move as she shifted me in her hold. How the hell is this fair?! I swear if I feel pain in this body I will freak out! I shivered on the inside as I felt the winged girl rub a finger on one of my horns, as she looked me over with a scrutinizing look.

"What is this Mask?" She said, her face inches from the mask as she tried to make out some minute details on my new body. In a rush to get her to back off slightly, I willed the Mask to send off a pulse. I felt the Mask shudder slightly, as the Horned girl turned on a dime, and caught me in her own.. Magic? Wow, so that's new.. Am I releasing Magic? Thoughts for later..

The girl had caught me in her Magic, because the Winged girl had dropped me from the sudden pulse of energy I had exuded.

"W-what was that?" The winged girl asked shakily. Jeeze, act like I'm evil of something.. Oh, well this might not go over well if the Magic I'm releasing is anything like what you see in the game.

"That.." The horned girl stopped to breath. Woah, was it that bad? I wish I could apologize. "That was the Magic I had sensed earlier, I told you it felt evil. I should have been carrying it from the start." She sighed as she continued on her way. To stop any miss-fortune I didn't do much of anything during the trip. Aside from watching my surroundings..

We arrived in front of some big double doors, and my mind instantly went to royalty. And since they had mentioned Princesses, I assumed that I would be meeting them soon. I hated that I couldn't do anything without making them instantly hate me. They pushed their way into the room ahead, and I was met with a sight I don't think I was ready for.

There were Two women sitting on individual thrones. One was about Seven maybe even Eight feet tall if the others I had seen were any indicators. She was porcelain white, with hair that looked like a living rainbow. She had a moderately sized bust for someone her size, and her clothes were very trim and proper, only her arms, neck and ankles were visible in her fancy dress. Her Rose eyes looked full of warmth.

Now the other, looked as if she was made in conjuncture to the white one. Her fur a dark midnight blue, her hair a start constellation, and a slightly smaller bust as well. Her outfit was rather.. Revealing if you compared it to the other one. Her dress stopped at just above her knee's and as such was considered a skirt. It also dropped into a small V-neck, revealing a small bit of cleavage.

"What have you found?" Oh.. great, I missed the introductions.. I waited with baited breath to see what was going to happen. I was grabbed with Magic again, being held out for the Two Princesses to see.

"Princess Celestia, Princess Luna, We found this Mask inside Everfree forest. It was emitting waves of Dark Magic. I suggest destroying it before any bad comes from it. Almost instantly I felt myself being tugged away from One magic, into another. I was floating in front of Celestia's face, as she seemed to concentrate. After a moment, I was handed off to her sister, who physically held me in her hand. A look of dis-trust on her face. Did she have a history with Dark Magic? That would be a pain..

"I do not sense this 'Dark Magic' are you sure you felt it?" Celestia asked the Horned girl.

"I'm sure!" She nodded furiously. Luna took her attention off of me and looked to her sister.

"We should destroy it, no need for any risks." Luna said simply. Her horn glowed a deep blue.

I panicked okay? Its an easy thing to do when your life is threatened by magically endowed creatures!

In my panic I asked for the Mask to let me speak, it wouldn't respond. I asked again, and again, pouring more and more feeling into it. I didn't notice, but I had started floating again in the real world. The ones in the room looked on in awe, as my Mask emitted pure, unfiltered, Dark Energy. I snapped back to attention when I felt.. I Felt them charging a spell. The Two princesses were charging a spell together, faces contorted in concentration.

Why?! Why cant I talk?! I remember Majora's Mask being able to talk Damnit!

"Not enough power.."

..What? Where did that come from? I barely heard it, like a whisper in the back of my head.

"Need power.."

I looked around confused, and on the outside the Mask's eyes were glowing an eerie Orange.

"Give me more power!"

I flinched internally at the jarring screech that emitted all around me. It sounded like somebody threw a chalkboard into a waterfall of chalk, and the board got stuck on a rock! If I had ears I'd be bleeding..

It was then.. That I realized that I was hearing what was supposed to be Majora's Mask.

Why was it talking to me? Why did it wait so long to do so?

Why.. Why do I ask so many god damn questions?!
