Chapter 30: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOLF!!
I looked to the creature in the containment chamber with a look of disdain.
“So, this thing just warped in and attacked you?” Starburst asked.
“This ‘thing’ as you call it is not just any creature.” I look back to the monster with flayed purple flesh and blackened teeth. “This is a netherbeast, one of the hounds the netherborn had at their call.”
“... but what could that mean?”
“It means we’re running out of time, and with that the dimensional barriers of this reality become more and more unstable.” I say as a scroll appeared in front of me.
“A letter from Twilight?”
“Hmm…” I read it over quickly. “No, the mayor, a wolf with a very familiar description just appeared in Ponyville along with a strange rock appearing in the old castle of the two sisters.”
Dragon candles: FUCKING CONVENIENT!
“Want me to help?” she said excitedly, but I held a brought a hand up.
“No, I think this can be handled easily, PINE! GET YOUR SWORD!” I call as I head out, and I smile as I heard him howl for battle.
As we arrive in town, readily armed I began looking around for the creature in question.
The place was quiet… almost akin to a ghost town, with how empty it felt there were even doubts of the wolf still even being here.
“He is here, there is a clear scent.” Pine thankfully confirmed for me.
After a while however we did see him, along with a strange rift in the air near him, and moved to keep out of the wolf’s sight, observing it.
At first glance, it looked like a wolf, but its odd coloration was obvious that it wasn’t a normal wolf. The top part of its fur was crimson red that faded to a green swirl and lastly grey. On its forehead was symbol that nopony nor I could recognize. Other than the odd coloration, it was currently wearing a pair of blue earrings with its right ear damaged by a bite of some sort. The fur on its face had some lighter tones, suggesting it had been clawed in the past, especially with that lighter part of his chest.
Immediately I knew this was a displaced, and immediately I walked over, greeted myself and sat down with him for a nice relaxing cup of-
Okay, I can’t keep that up with a straight face, everyone and their mother knows I plan to fuck with him.
I rubbed my hands together and decide to put some illusion magic into play on Pine.
Hmm… you know what? Having him fight Sif might be too tame…
Carnus, come to me now, I need some help pulling this off.
{POV CHANGE: LINK, 3RD}
The hylian-turned-wolf was taking a wary glance around as he was mentally cursing himself on such a poor choice to appear, he was aiming for the everfree or atleast somewhere out of sight. Link had been experimenting with Twi-magic to see if he could create and access portals much like the Twili. He was able to manifest it’s magic before as a form of a howling stone as his token, thus this second form of Twili was a different experience for him to try. So far, the portal looked correct although red with green bits mixed in, but overall functional. What went wrong was that it appeared in the wrong location despite the thought he had focused on. Wolf Link snorted in minor annoyance. “I suppose multi-verse means not the same exact location.” he said mentally in his mind. Link had used an emerald pickaxe token as a waypoint to hone in on the universe it came from.
he was unable to ponder the situation further as the town became covered in a snowy mist, the sky covered in clouds and darkness, and the snow and mist concealed the buildings.
The eerie sight made the area look less like a village and more of a graveyard… no, something else had changed what Link was seeing.
He was in a Graveyard, with swords stabbed into the ground stood as unmarked graves while a large tombstone rested in the centre. This sudden shift in reality made Link’s body tense up, he quickly turns around in confusion, trying to figure out what had just happened. His wolf form’s mind’s fight or flight instincts kick as he walked through the area.
As he approached the centre, a large howl echoed throughout the field, before a giant grey wolf leapt out from behind the stone and turned to face the other Lupine being. The imposing beast wielded a massive greatsword in its jaws, and it’s growl and confident stance made it clear he was skilled in how to use it. The beast let out another howl as it prepared to attack Link, primed for battle.
“T-that’s a big wolf..” Link compliment in the form of a growl, his body tense even further as he lowered himself to the ground, clearly ready to accept the challenge head on. He answers in return with a howl of his own.
Having his challenge accepted, the wolf readied himself and pounced forward for a slash. Due to the massive size difference, Wolf Link had to take a high leap back to avoid being hit by the wide sword. He keeps his distance as he runs around, there is a soft gleam in Wolf Link’s eyes as he uses the Wide Angle ability.
<Great Grey Wolf Sif.
Companion to Artorias The Abyss-Walker.
HP: 3,432. Soul Power: 40,000
[can’t display weakness/resistance.] Not all is being seen, but the truth nose no bounds.>
Wolf Link snorted at the amount of health his adversary had, although the words make him ponder. Keeping his distance for now, he quickly ignites his fangs with fire. With a loud howl, a Din’s Fireball is launched at Sif.
The wolf dodged to the side, he was quite fast for a giant wolf.
As it flew off, a pillar of dirt launched to intercept the fireball before disappearing. Wolf Link quickly glances around to try and find where it went, he begins to smell the air in a attempt to pick up its scent, but something was off.. “No scent?” Link said with a loud growl.
Then he noticed… there was a scent, there’s a very strong scent of wood coming from Sif. With whatever he managed to grab with his senses, his sights flash again as the world around him took on a slight darker hue in order to spot a red mist showing where the target went off. With a bound leap to his step, he takes off following after it.
As he chased it, it was discovered to be some sort of red orb with an eye looking around inside it. Wolf Link raised a furred eyeridge at the sight before him, it reminded him of something he saw before in the past. “I hope you’re not another one of those void dwellers.” Link said mentally as he approached with caution.
He had the urge to smash the orb, which seemed to be trying to keep its distance from him and venting energy into the land, revealing what it was doing. With a strong leap, he tackled it to see if it would fall over.
With the force it hit the ground and broke apart, sending a wave of energy, bringing the town back as the illusion was dispelled.
And Sif was revealed to be not a giant grey wolf, but instead a Giant Timberwolf made of Pinewood. It seems the illusion was enough to even trick Wide Angle… almost.
“If you can understand me then you’d best start explaining.” Link said with a feral growl, he was tempted to threaten him with fangs ignited, but he decided against it. A flaming wolf would be hazardous to ponyville.
“...very well.” the wolf spoke it’s voice some form of audible telepathy. “I was brought here to test your skill and to see the efforts of my training, as for who I am, why don’t you use that scanning trick again?”
Wolf Link blinked again at how this timberwolf noticed that considering that his sights were the only hint of this skill. They gleam softly as he looks into the target’s stats again.
<Pine: The Dire Timberwolf.
Mount, Familiar and Companion to Orgran the Red.
HP: ??? MP: 2000.
Can regenerate from any damage, resistant to Earth, Ice and Air, Weak to Fire.
This one’s Bite is as bad as his Bark.>
“Then I’m…” Wolf Link started as he looked around. “Then I didn’t make a mistake, this is Orgran’s world, right?”
He nodded, then looked to his left. “Master, don’t bother anymore, he figured out the trick.”
“Aww!” Orgran said as he came out looking like the large golden hammer-wielding freak Link had encountered before dispelling the illusion.
This revealed a red bearded armored Dwarf carrying a large warhammer, battleaxe, gauntlets with large spikes mounted on the backs of them, and wearing a helmet/crown combo.
“So… what’s up?”
“What’s up? That’s quite a casual question considering I could've accidently set ponyville a flame with that trick of yours.” Link said, but all that came out was a series of growls, grunts, and barks to the Dwarf’s ears.
“To be fair he just wanted to fuck with you.” Pine explained.
“Right… so I’m guessing you’re somehow related to the Rock that showed up in the castle of the two sisters?”
Wolf Link’s ears perked up at the mention of a rock. He takes a seat on the ground before looking at Pine. “That would be my Howling stone, my token. Although why it's there instead of with Orgran? I wouldn’t know.”
“My guess is that you weren’t brought here like you normally would, either way it would be best to get to it, correct?”
“That would be best. You don’t need anypony finding it first and being curious about it.” Wolf Link suggested as his ears swiveled around.
“Then let’s go!” Orgran declared before picking Link up, hopping onto Pine’s back and riding off into the Everfree.
As the group arrived at the Howling Stone, Orgran hopped off of Pine and set Wolf Link down next to the anomalous monument. Wolf Link made his way over to give it a sniff, making sure it was legit instead of a fake copy.
“Whatever tone is being played, all you gotta do is hum its tone and I’ll be there the same way I appeared. Usually, I just leap into the summoner’s head to create a mindscape and test him or her accordingly. You’ll never know what sort of person you’ll come across.” Wolf Link explained to Pine so that he can translate to Orgran. Once translated Orgran responded.
“Well I am happy to find you’re being cautious of such.” he said, then began to hum the tone the stone was emitting.
“So… Who’s the Displaced here? I still need to apply the test before I can turn back to normal. Either that, or just a quick leap in and out.” Wolf Link explained as his ears heard his stone singing a different song than what Pine was hearing.
“That would be my master, the Dwarf.” Pine said.
“Ah, so my thoughts were right the first time.” Wolf Link in a slight embarrassed tone. “I wanted to make sure a Dwarf actually looked like a Dwarf.” He said before turning his attention to the same Dwarf in question.
“... why are you looking at me like that?” he asked as he noticed. Without getting an answer, Wolf Link’s took on an intimidating spectral appearance, he leapt toward the Dwarfs forehead as Orgran was briefly blinded by light. It vanished as quickly as it came.
There that stood before him was a taller man wearing a red cloak and hood. He reaches up and pulls it down to reveal the same scars and ear damage as his wolf form from earlier. For all the Dwarf saw, Link looked like an elf, or a hylian in this case. There were some slight key differences though, mostly the facial hair of a blond mustache and goatee nicely trimmed.
However, considering Orgran’s human past, he was able to notice enough of the similarities.
“I knew that form was familiar, you turned into Link?”
“Well, three of them into one as far as I know. I lost the cap a long time ago though.” Link said before shrugging. On the hylian’s back behind the cloak was the hylian shield itself, although the Master Sword and its sheath was located on his left hip.
“So, hero of Twilight, hero of Time and…?”
“Masks and.. Whatever title the Link in A Link to the past was called.” Link finished for Pine.
“Actually in Majora’s mask it was still the Hero of Time and in Link to the Past it was the Legendary hero, so, how’d you get Displaced?”
The hylian took a gentle breath. “Tricked by curiosity. A treasure chest was left at my doorstep, I opened it, touched the Triforce, and here I am after seventeen years.” Link explained.
“Doo doo doo dooooo! You got: Displacement Artifact!” Orgran said, doing the iconic stance that the game Link would do when getting an item, until he sat down laughing.
It started off as a small snort before Link couldn’t hold back as he started laughing in amusement. “Pretty much the.. Ha ha, gist of things.”
“Yeah… sorry if you left anything important behind, but hey, it’s nice to see you can still laugh about it… beer?” he said, pulling out a glass and filling it with beer from his Ale mug. “Made it myself.”
“Don’t remind me.” Link said with a sigh as he ran a leather gloved hand through his hair. “I still miss my family despite giving up on trying to get home.” he said before looking at the offered glass. “No thanks.” he declined it.
“Eh, come on, it’s not like you can destroy your liver in the mindscape… eh forget it, would you like any kind of drink, anyway?”
“Except I stopped that mindscape before it had a moment link our minds and manifest it. As for anything to drink, not at the moment.” Link said as he looked toward the sky. Pine/Orgran’s attention was drawn when he noticed that the Howling Stone had shrunk to become a necklace. Link kneels down to pick it up and hand to Orgran. The Dwarf notices it looks exactly like the one Link’s wearing around his neck.
Orgran shrugged and downed the glass, then put on the necklace. “So… what about the whole ‘judging my character’ thing?”
“Already saw it at a glance. You’re quite a wild one.” Link commented.
“And… does that mean you know about the dangers I have looming over me and Equestria?”
“Pretty much, I only saw your current thoughts. Funny how danger follows me wherever I go.” Link said as he crossed his arms. “First, what’s Equestria’s thoughts on Displaced or humans in general?”
“Well the Princesses and Mane 6 have a positive opinion on them thanks to me… I would like to explain my situation with you, so you understand the risks here.”
“Good, this means I don’t have to put on the Unicorn Mask just to earn their trust.” Link said with a relieved sigh.
“Unless your Unicorn Mask made you one hot anthro stallion you won’t fit in that much, I don’t know why, but when everypony became anthro, everyone became super hot and I still have no clue as to why!”
“A-Anthro?” Link said with a stutter. He brings his hand to his forehead. “Please don’t tell me Spike is a female too..”
“No, he’s a guy… why do you ask?”
“I didn’t want to deal with another one..” Link said. There was a slight blush to his long hylian ears, hinting at something to the Dwarf. “As for my mask, I don’t think it’d change me that much.. But of course your world might change it anthro.” he said as he tapped his chin in thought. “I won’t know till I try.”
“It won’t, it’s not a universe’s law the incident came about through dark magic, which was created by the enemy I have to face, it’s more than likely that now that the energy dissipated, unless I threw one of the crystals at you when you used the mask that you’d stay feral.” he blinked, then put on a sincere smile. “... meh, actually there’d be no harm in trying.”
Reaching back into his pouch, he pulls out a mask that had some likeness to his hylian face, the difference was that the face was red with tiny bits of green. Ironically, it, too had the battlescars. When Link places the mask near his face, it suddenly molds into flesh and clings his face, causing blue energy to swirl and gather. With a brief flash, his form had shorten down to a small unicorn that was slightly taller than Twilight. Other than the obvious changes, he looked like a red and green stallion with a grey horn and a yellow mane. The red cloak shrunk with him while the pouches turned into saddle bags. “I have used this mask in a while since the last time I visited Appleloosa.” Link said with a slightly younger voice.
“Neat… oh hey, Link?” Orgran began as he pulled something from a pouch.
“Yea?” Link answered as he was refreshing his mind on the course of how magic telekinesis worked, some of the small rocks were being levitated by a golden glowing horn.
“Catch!” he yelled as he tossed a small glowing purple gem at the unicorn. Link the unicorn caught the gem in his magical grip, he looks at the gem in question before looking at Orgran in curiosity.
Before he could question the Dwarf the gem’s energy rushed through the magical link into Link’s body, corrupting the magic of the mask to suddenly turn Link into an anthro… but didn’t bother giving clothes. Other than the cloak that covered his upper-body, he looked almost like his human form, except now there was a darker shade of fur on his chest that told the dwarf another of Link’s past injuries; a nasty star shaped scar shown though if he were to look past that. Other than the changes, Link’s buttcheeks had the triforce held over a sword and shield.
Though Orgran was looking to the side while trying to hold back a laugh, since this situation left more than his chest exposed. Despite the obvious nakediness, Link didn’t appear to be much phased by the sudden change other than a skeptic look on his face.
“Not the first time I appeared naked.” Link said with a sigh as he reached into his slightly larger pouch to take out a red tunic similar to his green tunic, however after putting it on, the chest part wasn’t as bulky, like there was something missing that he wore as a hylian.
“Oh that’s not it… I just feel sorry for you...”
“Feeling sorry for me?” Link asked with a raised eyebrow. “Actually, I think it’d be worth it by experimenting with a new form if I ever end up in another form. So consider your small prank a gift.” he said with a grin.
“Oh not about that… this was phase one, but just in case.” he grabs a yellow gem and shocks Link with it. “Congratulations for your mask being stuck on for the next 24 hours.”
“I still think it’ll hold some benefits despite whatever you're planning.” Link said with a frown as he started pulling the rest of his stuff out such as his sword and shield.
“So, shall we return to town? I think everypony will be out and about by now.”
“Yea, any of your friends or anypony will be curious of what happened after our little show.” Link said, he was hoping they won’t make any connections between a wolf and a unicorn who both share slightly similar colorschemes.
“Eh, the mane six are in Canterlot, and Carnus will have calmed down the populace enough before legging it back home.”
“Let’s go then.” Link said as he straightens his leather gauntlets over his hands. “Quick question… Are they naked or clothed?”
“Clothed.”
The hylian let out a relief sigh, it would of been extremely awkward if they weren’t wearing clothes, it would also be troublesome for him to talk without blushing out a storm. He already had things he had to deal with back home, he didn’t want to deal with it here too.
Though, if he could’ve seen the Dwarf’s maniacal grin, he would’ve run.
As the two walked into town, Orgran acted like everything was normal, but Link could notice something that filled him with a sense of subconscious concern.
The only ponies out and about were mares… and some were sending glances and gentle smiles his way.
“At least everypony's alright despite the mass panic.” Link commented on as he glanced around with his blue eyes.
“Mhm, Ponyville always look so nice in the Spring…”
“I prefer winter though.” Link said to Pine.
“...I’m surprised you haven’t caught onto what he’s done… or how much danger you’re in.” Pine says deadpan, already caught on to the situation.
Link waved his leather gloved hand nonchalantly. “It can’t be any worse than what happened to me so far.”
“Do you realise what kind of season Spring is?”
It suddenly clicked in the hylians mind. “Oh no… this world doesn’t have mating season, does it?” Link said in a whisper.
Orgran then proceed to clear his throat as we ended up in the centre of town, with a crowd of needy looking mares surrounding us.
“...this stallion said to me the first one to get him gets to have him all night!” he pointed at the very unlucky Hylian before dropping into a pit that closed up behind him, with Pine getting the same escape method.
“What? NO! I didn’t s-” but it was too late as both wolf and dwarf vanished from sight. “Oh by Din’s fiery wrath.” Link said as he slapped the head of his head.
It didn’t seem the mares were going to listen as they began to close in, some of their hands drifting to… certain areas on their bodies, in anticipation.
“D-don’t listen to the Dwarf- I mean can you really trust the words of a drunkard?” Link said using the only hint of that Orgran was a drinker.
“Mhm, he’s never been sober.” one mare with a mint green coat mentioned. “He’s actually trained himself to be fully coherent while absolutely wasted.”
“Plus he’s never steered the Elements wrong.” another mare added. “Plus, we can smell how big you are~.”
“Wait-what?” Link said as she stared at the mare in disbelief at what she said.
Then his thoughts ran back a moment, right after Orgran had just changed him.
“Oh that’s not it… I just feel sorry for you…”
HE FUCKING KNEW! A voice screamed in the Stallion’s mind. If Orgran could see him now, the hylian-turned unicorn had the biggest frown mixed with a slight angry scowl to his expression.
Then there was an opening in the crowd, he could get out of the ring and escape with his stallionhood undestroyed. “Noping outta here.” Link said as he took his chance. With one fluid motion and his cloak whipping at the sudden turn, he was speeding away with a pair of leather boots that had golden wings at their side; his hybrid pegasus hover boots that allowed him to run faster than before.
“AFTER HIM!!!” the group cried as they charge after the Hylian turned Pony.
“Nope, nope, nope, nope.” Link kept chanting it like a mantra, he doesn’t need a second wheel in his life to take care of.
Unfortunately those hot, slim and nicely toned bodies were not for show, as they proceed to run right after their prey, some even managing to parkour.
Unicorns began flinging spells at him, which he was able to scan with Wide Angle, strangely enough.”That’s.. A new one..” Link mentally commented as he returned his focus to where he was going. “Thank Hylia they’re not Displaced mares, otherwise they’d probably catch up with me.”
And now the mares were becoming more depraved, attempting to trip up Link by tossing whatever they had on hand at him… including their own clothes.
“Trust me, mares, you do NOT want this!” Link exclaimed as he desperately started going through his pouch, the stress allowing him to search a little faster than usual. He pulls out a Deku Nut and tosses it behind him. While it succeeded in tripping up a unicorn, the one behind her was an Earth pony that crushed it underhoof like it was nothing.
Link would regret looking back as he now saw the horde of horny, NAKED mares moaning in need as they chased after him.
The poor hylian’s cheeks and ears blushed furiously at that mistake. “Ok! Let’s go with plan B!” Link said as he took a detour into an alley-way, then with a strong crouch and channeling his red cloaks enchantments, he leaps high up and onto the nearest roof.
All was quiet as he landed, it looked like his strategy completely bamboozled them. Link let out a breath he didn’t know he was holding, he slowly raises up and begins dusting himself off.
...only to turn around and get tackled by a pair of Pegasi. Who began to trail kisses affectionately along his jaw.
“Huh-wha-no,no,no-no!” Link said as he tried to get away without harming them.
“Hey! He’s up on the roof!” one of the unicorns called out as they heard his panic.
“Son of a flying pot!” Link said as he quickly put his hands into his pouches again to pull out and put a pair of golden gauntlets with a red gem. Feeling the extra in strength in his body, he gets up with the pegasi possibly hanging from him. He carefully pries them off of him before taking off again, using a combination of the Pegasus Hover Boots and his enchanted cloak to leap from building to building.
But suddenly, at one of the buildings he almost misses, not feeling the power of his cloak anymore.
Must’ve been stripped off when I pulled those pegasi off. Think, Link, think! Link said mentally to himself as he started going through a mental list of his items that could help him out of this predicament. “I don’t have time to play a quick song.. I don’t want to cast any magic at them as that’ll paint me in a bad light… Orgran said I couldn’t remove my mask but…” Link took off again but instead of leaping to another building, he leapt down to ground level and used the hover enchantment of his boots to land safely. “Could I put a mask over the mask?” Link asked himself as he took off running.
Then he saw the massive swarm of mares emerge to chase him again.
The first thoughts of suggestion would be to change forms, but with the crystal’s effect still on him, it would probably make it even worse.
Not to mention who knows what the corruptive spell on the pony mask would do to the others. The only things that could help him is Farore’s Wind, song of time, or run even faster with the bunnyhood. “But would that be willing to chase me out of ponyville j-just for their lust?” Link asked himself with a shudder at the thought of having to run for twenty four hours, it would be rough on the poor hylian. An idea sparked into his head as he reached into his pouch to pull out a dull looking Stone Mask, he places it onto his head, praying to the three that its enchantments would make the mares lose interest.
The corruption, as seemingly expected, tried to spread into the mask, however could not find any transformative effects to latch on to.
Part of Link was glad he didn’t try this with another mask in his panic.
The mares all stopped, right next to him, unable to notice he was there and all letting out various noises of disappointment, they continued to look around.
Right next to Link.
With their nude breasts almost touching his face. The hylian kept mentally praying to the three while trying his holy damndest to not move otherwise they may get curious of why a boring rock was rolling in their sights.
Eventually the crowd ended up disbanding, though some were crying.
Link held his breath the best he could and once he was standing alone and nopony was watching, he allowed himself to breath slowly as to not make a noise. With gentle steps, he started to slowly tip-toe away quietly, hoping to get to somewhere safe until he can find the Dwarf… and beat the living Farore out of him for pulling this prank on him.
Eventually he managed to find where Orgran lived, it was some sort of laboratory castle hidden within a hill on the outskirts of town.
“ORGRAN!” Link yelled with his stone mask still on.
Silence.
Link began whispering and cussing in the hylian language as he approached the castle. He gives the door a furious knock.
What he didn’t expect was the heavily armoured loli girl to answer the door. “Hello?”
Link was about to remove his mask but hesitated considering who was at the door.
“Ugh, stupid ding-dong dickheads messing with me, what does a Dwarf have to do to not get pranked by the most basic bullshit.”
Realizing that it wasn’t a mare this time, Link reaches up and removes the mask. “Is there a certain red headed male dwarf here?” he asked.
“What do you want with my husband?”
“He played a rather cruel prank on me and I was forced to run from a huge crowd of mares.” Link explained with a frown.
“Wow… if you ran from the mares in ponyville, I’d say you need to get laid but then again I don’t know any stallions nearby who’d be interested.”
“I-wha? NO!” Link said as he pinched the bridge of his nose. “I’m a Displaced and I’m not from around here.”
“But come on, they’re hot! And it’s pretty clear you’re blueballen right now.”
“Look… I already have a certain someone back home and I’d rather not later down the line have a descendant in this world.” Link said as he was trying hard not to allow his anger to get the best of him.
“...uh, seriously? Oh right, Orgran doesn’t know either… Mares in heat always put on contraceptive charms first before going out to hunt for stallions.”
“Even so, I highly doubt I’d be alive let alone have functionality down there… I mean for Hylia’s sake, the population of ponyville? I think not. I may be a hero but a sex god I’m definitely not.” Link said as he took a deep breath to calm not only himself, but the raging snake down below.
“Well, there’s only one mare here.”
Link suddenly spun around in an attempt to find said mare, prepared to run if the loli warrior was telling the truth. Only to be grabbed by the horn and dragged in, slamming the door closed.
“STARLIGHT! I GOT YOU A DATE!”
“Oh come on!” Link exclaimed in annoyance, he was starting to get tired of this treatment.
“Hey, you need this, and she needs this, you only need to go one round and she’ll be good, no responsibility, no pregnancy, just relief, then we can get Orgran and he can tell you all about the massive risk that potentially dooms the multiverse.”
“The multiverse doomed? Oh don’t tell me it's another void dweller who thinks too highly of themselves…” Link said with disdain in his voice.
“Actually it’s a race of demons growing in power from the worship of a race of creatures they corrupted with their essence and magic on a quest to, originally to destroy all life but now, enslave all races for more worship and to indulge in carnal desires.” she explained as she tossed link into a magic-proof room with Starlight Glimmer. Then slammed the door to it closed and locked it.
Link the unicorn at first twisted the door, only to hear it rattle in resistance. Link turned around and pushed his back against the door, he was afraid of what sort of game or kinks this mare may have.
“So… you’re the date my mom mentioned?” she asked.
“More like enslaved.” Link commented sarcastically followed by a sigh. He already tried to cast a Farore Wind spell, only for the green orb of magic to putter out from his horn. “...Magic proof room…”
“Then… c-could you… please help and… rut my brains out?”
“You want me to do what to your brains?” Link asked innocently as he wasn’t familiar with the word ‘rut’.
“I… I mean could you… take charge and…” she didn’t say anything else instead opting to strip down, then present herself to get the message across.
It was made clear that Starlight’s fetish was to be submissive. The hylian, once again for the third or fourth time today, placed his hand onto his face. He let out a defeated sigh, knowing clearly that he can’t escape this time and has no choice but to do what he didn’t want to do or else the mare may become a bit more if she goes without relief. At least this one had a little more control instead the mares out there.
“...Alright… Alright…” Link said as Nayru’s love reared its ugly head. Right now, the size of it finally got to him and the pressure was becoming too much. Slowly, he begins to remove his tunic and places them into saddle bags. “Just don’t expect me to be experienced. This body isn’t exactly my original form.” Link admitted.
{several hours later}
The door opened, allowing Link and Starlight to leave the room, the mare looking very satisfied and Link… while he was happy that the Dodongo was defeated, his expression had some conflictions, like being happy, depressed, unsure, and questioning himself that if he’ll be the same, especially if his thoughts of the Heart Container love making will end up growing. He already went through this before and he’ll hate it if his feelings drove him crazy.
“Thanks… Link, was it? I really needed that, to relieve myself.”
“Please, call me Protective Shield while I’m in this form. Just..” Link stopped in mid-sentence as he raised his hand as if to say something, but he stopped only to sigh. “You’re welcome..” Link said as he rubbed the head of his head nervously.
“Relax, this wasn’t too big, just a quick romp to save us from blue-balls, no need to make it any bigger, right?”
“Yea…. Yea.” Link said as he looked up at Starlight, he leaned forward but stopped himself. “Everything's good, right?”
“Mhm, and while yeah, it might’ve been nice, you’re from another world, long distance relationships don’t exactly work.”
“I know, I know. It’s just of the many worlds I go to, there’s always someone giving me the look, or something going wrong.” Link said as he rubbed his horn. “I go to those worlds to help those who summon me, but it's often unavoidable if a mare has interest- I mean I’m not implying you do.. Just…” He sighs. “Multiverse travel, many realities, many good people and ponies. I’m not one to this sort of thing but it can troublesome when some of those worlds have the whole mating season thing and I just often end up coming in at the wrong time.”
“Right… w-well… it’s no big deal, we can just be friends… r-right?”
The hylian was silent for a few moments, he took a gentle breath and gave it some thought. “...Before I say this, there’s just one thing I’m concerned about. Once twenty four hours has past, I’ll be able to remove this enchanted mask that allows me to be the unicorn you see before you. I will look different upon removing it. The main question is if your opinion of me may change. I’m actually a hylian in my original form, it's like a human but with longer pointed ears.” Link explained.
“And a human is like a Dwarf but taller?”
“Yea, and alot more magical with spells. I mean I can use them but ya know.” Link said as he waved a hand around the room and the nullification it had at the moment.
“We’re out of the room now… also...” she pulled Link close and kissed him. “I fell in love with Link, not Protective Shield.”
“R-really? N-not because of the instincts a-and all of that..” Link stuttered, his cheeks and his ears blushing red.
“Link, Estrus instincts only flare up if you haven’t fucked somepony yet.”
“O-oh.. Then…” Link softly chuckled as he smiled. “Then this can work despite species difference but.…” he looked at Starlight. “You wouldn’t mind being in a different world? I mean the one I came from, everypony's more on the.. Well, feral side, four-legged I mean.”
“Well…”
“I’m sure Orgran can make something to make a more permanent gateway.” the female Dwarf from before says as she walks over to them. “But I expect grandkids.”
“M-MOM!!” the unicorn mare blushed in surprise and embarrassment.
“Well, it’s kind of her choice, she does that… what was it again? The spell.” Link asked as he gave Starlight a kiss on her forehead to the side of the horn.
“Yeah…” Starlight muttered with a smile.
“I overheard! The gate’s done!” Orgran yelled from the other room.
Link chose to make no comment as he was starting to chalk the Dwarf’s antics be that of a certain pinkin party pony; just don’t question it.
He then walked in. “so… we got to talk.”
We return to Orgran and Link in another room, Orgran with his Ale mug taking a sip. “So… you up for a drink, now?”
“..Something light, I think I’ll need a buzz right about now after this twist of fate.” Link said as he rubbed his horn. He wasn’t ungrateful for it, it was more on the subject of this threat that's coming to Orgran’s world than the little Mini-game session he had with Starlight...
“Relax future son-in-law, you’ll be fine.” he says as he pours Link out a glass of some light Apple Cider.
Link snorted at that comment. “Son-in-law, a hylian who is a son-in-law to a Dwarf.” he said jokingly.
“More accurately a Dwarven king since I am the last of my kind, and yes there used to be more of my kind in this world.”
“Aren’t we all when we get Displaced? I mean I’m the first and last hylian in my Equestria.” Link said as he took a swig of the apple cider.
“No, I mean look to the north, across the sea you will find Mylinia, Orgran’s land of origin, a beautiful realm full of magic and various races living in harmony… at least… it was, now they’re all gone, every last being that found their home on that land is dead, Mylinia is now nothing more than one massive graveyard for my people and the hundred other races.”
“Oh then… Flying Pot. Sorry, I didn’t know.” Link said with a frown.
“You want to know what happened to them?”
“Does it have anything to do with that threat you were talking about?” Link asked as he took a slow slurp of his drink. The Dwarf proceeded to nod and take a sip from his own mug.
“Yes, the Netherborn, a vile race composed of a solidified organic form of Nether Magic… Entropy Based Magic.”
Link stroked his goatee in thought, in a literal sense since he’s a unicorn. “Has any books survived? Anything we could learn from this magic?”
“You shouldn’t considering it’s a magic banned in the entire multiverse… a long time ago 5 heroes united the five great races in Mylinia in a war against this cursed army, one Elf, one Undead, one Dragonkin, one Human, and one Dwarf… of course the Dwarf was me, we charged against the enemy and beat them back until me and my friends reached the leader known solely as the Netherlord… I’ll let you guess what happened next.”
“Hylia damnit..” Link said with a soft sigh. “And were they Displaced or the original races?”
“Original… I did lose everyone, but we did win… but then Orgran disappeared for unknown reasons… must’ve been when I became displaced as him, either way even with the Netherborn defeated their energy corrupted the land, making it attack and kill its own inhabitants out of sheer spite… and then a new race landed on the shores of Mylinia… The Caribou.”
“Was Mylinia the only place this.. Caribou hit?” Link asked he took on a thoughtful pose, hands together and propping his head up from the table.
“Yes… and no, this was after a Civil War between the Dainn Dynasty and the Doe Devoted, one wished for a male dominant patriarchy to battle against the increase in matriarchs and princesses while the other wished to keep their tradition of the high priestess leading the people, when Dainn was beaten back they fled, leaving the Devoted with any Bucks who remained loyal to the Priestess and the Dynasty with whatever Doe they could capture for repopulation when they fled since no female had sided with them… Dainn wasn’t a bad king, if he had won I’m sure his rule would’ve been just and fair as any ruler before him… but then he met the Netherlord… turns out even after we killed him his soul stuck around.”
“Jeez, like a stubborn Ganondorf resurrecting every generation.” Link said as he shook his head. “What happened to the Caribou? Are they still around?”
“That’s the problem, the Netherborn were beings of Entropy, so they gained power from the lack of life in an area, it’s what motivated their genocide to begin with, but with these Caribou, who were lost and looked to anything for guidance, who met these powerful beings and praised them as gods… they found a new power, Worship.”
“Dangerous combination. From what you’ve told me and if they’re not stopped, everyone else will end up like in the past. Especially my world, I’d hate it if they discovered a few things…” Link said as he shuddered at a past memory.
“Exactly, with this worship the Netherlord turned Dainn into his avatar and corrupted the Caribou race, gifting them with the crystals you see I have now, and so they took over the Caribou lands and made a dark kingdom in my homeland, now the caribou race is as corrupt as every Fall of Equestria Universe version… though some can see the light, like Carnus, my black knight, or the Nijato Three who have willingly become Zecora’s male harem.”
Link lowered his head and mumbled to himself ‘A hero’s work is never done’, he looks up back at the Dwarf. “How adaptable are they? I’d like to make sure my Master Sword can still be their bane or hopefully my Light Arrows can still affect them..” Link asked.
“We don’t have a full detail, but what I know is that they have salvaged Dwarven War Machines, have mutant warbeasts, and have begun to use their female slaves for meat shields, and as we speak Dainn is moving to revive the Netherlord.”
“By Din’s fiery wrath, they’re far worse than what I’ve faced in the past…” Link said with a groan before he grabbed his glass and swigged the rest in one go.
“And it gets worse, it’s safe to say the Netherborn have grown to indulge like their followers… and they won’t stop in this universe… and they’ll rape and enslave every female they find…” at that he glances over to his wife and daughter who were in the next room.
“...They’ll never be satisfied then, the multiverse is vast and endless. Almost like letting a goron into an all you can eat rock buffet.” Link said half serious and half jokingly.
“And they don’t discriminate from what Carnus has told me, not even age!... I… it scares me... I do have a plan, but to do that, I need an army… and heroes.”
“Well, you’ve kind of have a one-man army right here. But I know it won’t be enough depending on how long this has been going on.. Tell me, how many Displaced have you met?” Link asked.
“Two, but one’s long dead from what I can tell from his Token, but the other is working to spread the word to others, his name is Thrin.”
“It’s a start.” Link said as he started to think about it. “I’ve met a fair amount of Displaced, a lot of them busy dealing with their own villains at the moment.” he said as he thought some more. “There is Betty, Azure, Wyatt, Nick, Rez, Palutena, Rin, Sans the Batter, Akuma, Iron Ash, DarkSpider, and the last two are a powerful sith lord and his sister Katy, an Undyne Displaced.”
“I know about them, I read their stories on Fimfiction.”
Link gave the Dwarf a questioning look.
“Oh yeah, different Earths… are you aware of the Equestria having the cartoon analogue ‘My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic?”
“I have no knowledge of it other than its a cartoon that’s actually.. Well.” Link said before chuckling. “We know how this went when its actually real, it becomes a surreal experience the first few days. I was in such a distressful state at the start of this Displaced life.”
“Well there’s a site called Fimfiction for MLP fanfiction… one of the more common genres is ‘Displaced fics’ I used to binge read them in my life that when I encountered the Merchant himself I willingly let myself become displaced.”
“I know of the Merchant, but it does make sense of why everything is.. Well, this. The Merchant basically liked the idea and decided to make it real.. Although that doesn’t explain why I got picked when I didn’t want too but..” Link waved his hand. “It's the past and I’ve learned a lot and while it’s been rough, there’s been a lot of good things that happened in my life.”
“Well… now that I have your help… I want to ask something of you.”
“Well of course. What you explained is some pretty messed up stuff, I wouldn’t be able to ignore your plea of help while it weighs heavily on my mind. There is a reason the Master Sword chose me when I proved myself seven years ago. So what is it that you ask of me?” Link asked.
“The gateway isn’t really complete yet, it’ll be done after the war is over, so when you leave today, take Starlight with you to your world and make sure she stays with you.”
“That I can do. It’s… well, somewhat safe in my world as long as I protect her, the royal twins can also help out when I need them.” Link said with a smile.
“Link, I’m serious, she’s going to hate me for this but there have been more attacks on me in my own home… I’m worried that the next day she’ll be gone and the next time I see her she’ll be in a red collar and…” he grabbed his head as the anxiety of a possible future began to weigh on him.
“Orgran, I swear on the triforce of courage I’ll keep her safe. I won’t let anything happen to her, I’ll even go the extra extent of using the Fierce Deity Mask when I need to. I’ll.. I’ll go God Of War on their asses.” Link said before blinking. “Oh… right, a lot of my cussing is in hylian or zelda enemy names yet the word asses passes my lips without changing.” he said before shaking his head at the strangeness. But the Dwarf didn’t care as he pulled the Hylian into a hug.
“Thank you… thank you…”
“Well it’s time.” Orgran said to Link as they were outside, with Starlight, Pine, Carnus, Hella (Orgran’s Wife) and Chrysalis (Apparently Orgran’s other wife) having already said their goodbyes to him in his true form, Starlight unaware of her father’s request.
“By the way, Orgran.” Link said as he tapped the Howling Stone that was around the Dwarf’s neck. “Be careful with it, it can change your form if you accidentally activate its magic into that of a wolf.” he warned.
He shrugged. “Meh, I can turn into Alucard from Hellsing Ultimate Abridged because of the heart of an undead god… not a big deal.”
“...Except you’ll be stuck in that form till you figure out how to turn back.. Also, seriously?” Link asked about the vampire part.
“Yep… so how do I turn back, or did you not learn how to turn back?”
“I can’t answer that as you’ll need to figure your own method. Last time I tried to teach someone to use it, it didn’t work for him even though it activates with a thought or a feeling of desire of wanting to be in the form. I suppose void energy compatibility?” Link said with a shrug of his arms.
“Alright… well, see you later… Link, our contract is complete.”
With those words spoke, a blue crystal started to surround him as he rose up into the air. However, instead of spinning around and vanishing like it usually does, he along with the crystal started breaking into black particles and being sucked up into a green and red portal in the sky. Despite Link being gone, the Twili portal stayed for some reason..
That reason was revealed when Starlight began to become similar particles. “Dad?! What’s happening?!”
“I… I’m sorry, you’ll be safe with Link.”
The realization gave her a look of horror. “DAD! NO-” but it was too late as she was sent away and the portal closed behind her, everyone was frozen in shock, though the Dwarf simply walked away with tears in his eyes.
“...I’m sorry…”
