An Ancient Evil Reawakens
In a clearing within a forgotten forest, a small imp hunches close to the ground and quickly starts digging. After creating a little hole, the imp grabs an object and places it into the hole, hoping its power will be forever trapped, and buries it. He stands up and wipes the dirt off his straw-like clothes. Suddenly the child feels he is being watched. He looks over his shoulder and sees a dark purple aura forming on the other side of the clearing.
The aura begins to expand as a foot takes a step onto the ground and soon the rest of the body emerges from the darkness. A tall dark man looks around and notices the imp, but ignores him as a powerful force is nearby and it wants to be reawakened. He looks at the mound on the ground and smirks.
The imp sees the man's face looking at the buried object. He steps in front of the man's view and quickly realizes he may have made a grave mistake.
The tall man narrows his eyes and prepares for an attack. He lunges towards the child using his Flame Choke attack, revealing him to be none other than the King of Darkness, Ganondorf.
The imp flinches as he sees Ganondorf coming closer. He quickly pulls out an odd instrument with four pipes protruding from it. The child quickly blows through the instrument.
Ganondorf suddenly stops and laughs at the child's miserable attempt of an attack. Soon the evil lord hears several noises from the forest. He looks around and sees numerous creatures.
The creatures oddly float towards the King of Darkness. They move as if they are marionettes being controlled by a higher power. The creatures, simply known as Puppets, begin flailing their arms and bodies towards the male Gerudo.
Ganon easily swats away most of the Puppets, destroying them. He crushes another Puppet that has appeared, but soon hears the horn and even more Puppets appear. He prepares himself for the onslaught of Puppets.

The evil wizard destroys another wave of Puppets and as if on cue hears the horn and another wave appears from the forest. He clenches his fists, getting really annoyed at the child and his army of weak minions. Ganondorf quickly pulls his left arm back as a dark aura forms around his hand. He watches as the Puppets descend upon him. Just as the Puppets are about to attack him, he lets loose his Warlock Punch, but instead of shooting it forward, he punches the ground below him.
The powerful attack causes a shockwave, knocking back all of the Puppets and the child as well. The imp nearly loses his grip on the instrument, but manages to get a hold of it. He soon sees Ganondorf crouching down and quickly uses his Wizard's Foot attack. The child inhales and is about to exhale into the horn, but the Wizard's Foot's attack stops in front of him.
Ganondorf swiftly kicks upward, knocking the instrument out of the imp's hands, and it flies up into the sky. He stands up, towering over the small child, and holds his arm out. The instrument lands into Ganondorf's hand. He looks at the annoying instrument and crushes it. Ganon turns his head towards the child and sees the depressing expression in the imp's face. He soon starts laughing at the child's misery. The King of Darkness quickly ignores the imp and starts to head towards the mound of dirt.
The child remains motionless not knowing what the wizard wants with the buried object.
Ganon looks down at the mound and notices a part of the object is sticking out of the ground; no doubt the cause is from the shockwave he created earlier. He leans down and grabs the spike and pulls the object out. Ganondorf wonders what was so special about this item. Why was it calling out to him? What was so special about this mask?
The eerie mask's eyes begin to glow as Ganondorf begins feeling strange. The evil king starts groaning in pain, while the imp just watches knowing something terrible is happening. Ganondorf feels as if he is being drained of energy. He soon throws the mask to the ground and the pain suddenly stops. Ganon shakes his head and looks down at the mask. He clenches his fist and teeth in irritation because something actually would try to cause him pain. Suddenly from the corner of his eye, he sees the imp trying to escape into the forest. He quickly lunges to the child, performing his Flame Choke attack. He grabs the imp's neck and attacks him with a dark pulse.
The small child looses consciousness from the dark pulse.
Ganondorf continues to hold the imp's neck and laughs at the lifeless child. He walks over to the mask and sees it staring directly at him and feels it is just mocking him. He taps the mask with his foot, causing the mask to flip over. Ganondorf looks at the kid and drops him face first into the mask. He slowly takes a few steps back, wondering what will happen.
Suddenly the imp's eyes quickly open and he slowly begins to rise to his feet. He soon feels different and lifts his arms up to his face. He notices something is over his face as he feels the spikes and horns on the object. He quickly realizes he is wearing the malicious mask known as Majora's Mask. The child or better known as the Skull Kid turns and looks at Ganondorf, if he was not wearing a mask, the King of Darkness could see the anger in his eyes. The Skull Kid hovers a bit before lunging towards Ganondorf.

The Skull Kid dodges each punch and kick Ganondorf tries to inflict. He lands on the ground away from the tall man. He crouches downward and quickly mimics an attack like Ganondorf's Wizard's Foot. As he is about to kick the wizard, the Skull Kid disappears.
Ganondorf looks around as he clenches his fists, annoyed at this little game. He soon hears something behind him. Ganon quickly turns around to try and attack the little imp, but he is quickly grabbed by the neck.
The Skull Kid starts floating upwards and he giggles as he tightens his grip on Ganondorf's neck. Soon a dark aura appears around the hand holding Ganon. He quickly sends a dark pulse, similar to Ganondorf's own Flame Choke attack, but he quickly shakes his head and the aura evaporates into the air. He looks down at Ganondorf's face wondering, thinking if this is what he wanted to do or if it was what Majora's Mask wanted. The Skull Kid threw Ganondorf to the ground and floated to the other side of the clearing. He lands on the ground wondering if he is in charge or is he just being used… again.
Ganondorf quickly gets back up and looks towards the Skull Kid. He clenches his fists, annoyed at himself for losing to a mere child, but soon wonders if he was losing to the kid or to the mask. He quickly shakes the thoughts from his head as he charges towards the Skull Kid.
The Skull Kid easily notices Ganondorf's attack and sidesteps out of the way. The two are about to do battle once again, but suddenly they both hear a woman's shout. The Skull Kid looks up and sees a maiden flying through the sky. He quickly flies up after her, leaving Ganondorf behind.
The girl is flying through the air with her yellow dress blowing with the wind. She crosses her arms upset at how that fat oaf surprised her and just flung her out of the castle. She is snapped out of her thoughts by the sight of a mask wearing imp flying up next to her.
The Skull Kid looks at the girl, first noticing her yellow dress and second notices a small crown on top of her head. He soon comes to the conclusion that she must be a queen or at least a princess.
She continues to stare at the Skull Kid's eerie-looking mask, but soon her attention is drawn elsewhere as she starts to descend to the ground below. Her eyes widen at the incoming ground. She starts shouting loudly and quickly covers her eyes for the inevitable.
The Skull Kid giggles at her cowardliness. He floats closer to her and grabs a hold of the girl. He slowly floats safely to the ground, while the girl remains screaming.
The girl's screams slowly start to fade as she peaks through her fingers and sees she has stopped moving. She removes her hands from her face and notices she is in the arms of the imp. She smiles and turns towards the Skull Kid's face, thanking him. Her eyes look away from the supernatural-looking mask, but the smile soon fades as she is dropped to the ground. As she falls to the ground, her brooch falls off her dress and rolls away. She turns and looks to see the small imp has spotted something.
The Skull Kid's attention is gained from a tall building. He finds it odd that a building would be out in the middle of a forest. Suddenly, something taps his foot and he looks down to pick up the flower-shaped brooch. He looks at the shiny emerald in the middle surrounded by white petals. The Skull Kid turns to look at the girl, who is still on the ground, and sees her earrings are the same design as the brooch and her crown also has the same emblem. He comes to the conclusion that this type of flower has something to do with this girl. He walks over to the girl and helps her up as he hands her the flower-shaped brooch.
She smiles at him thanking him as she places the brooch on her dress and finally introduces herself as the princess simply known as Daisy. Her eyes wonder away from the imp's mask. She wonders why the mask gives her the creeps but yet none of the Koopa King's army has spooked her, not even his undead minions.
Suddenly the Skull Kid feels an ache in his head. He places his hand over the mask as mischievously dark thoughts pop into his head. The Skull Kid feels a soft hand on his shoulder. He looks up and sees Daisy with a concerned look on her face. The imp pushes the princess away, telling her to leave.
Daisy is bewildered by the sudden change in the Skull Kid's mood.
The Skull Kid points towards the woods, telling her to leave immediately because he doesn't want to hurt her. He begins having thoughts as to what mischievous things he could do to her such as turning her into a short, wooden creature or turn her into a small infant. He places both hands over his head as he conflicts with himself.
Daisy does not know what to do and moves closer to the child. She soon sees the Skull Kid look up at her. She notices he has started to hover over the ground. He brings his limbs closer to the center of his body. The princess wonders what's wrong with him. She quickly steps back as the imp spreads his limbs outwards.
The Skull Kid screams at the top of his lungs as a vortex of colors appear behind him.
Princess Daisy tries to move closer to her new friend, but suddenly a shockwave created from the vortex is sent directly towards her. She is quickly struck by the wave. She glows brightly and she is turned into a Trophy. Her Trophy is soon sent flying towards the horizon.
The Skull Kid's screams soon fade away as he slowly floats back down. He turns and looks at the building like nothing even happened. He floats up the wall of the building and looks through a window. The imp notices it to be a lab of some kind, but what really caught his eye are three stasis tubes with a robot in each. He ponders what he should do, cause major mischief or if he should… his thoughts leave him as he looks over his shoulder towards the horizon feeling like he forgot something. He turns back towards the window and looks through the glass once more.
Majora's Mask's eyes glow as the Skull Kid clenches his fist. He pulls back his arm and soon lets it fly towards the glass.
Meanwhile back at the clearing from earlier, Ganondorf clenches his fist as he uses his Warlock Punch to destroy a few trees. He ponders how that child's strength increased from letting others fight his battles to being able to overpower him, the King of Darkness.
Soon a dark aura appears behind the wizard and his mighty steed walks out of it. Ganon's horse walks over to its master. The horse snorts, allowing Ganondorf to know of its presence.
Ganondorf turns and sees the beast. He smiles as he quickly mounts the horse. He quickly pulls on the reins as the horse begins galloping in the direction the Skull Kid went. He suddenly comes to a realization it was not the child that beat him, it was the mask that beat him. The child only started fighting after the mask was over his face. Ganon comes to the conclusion that he needs to recruit the child as his pawn before a certain reptilian annoyance recruits him first.
Hope you enjoyed.
I really want the Skull Kid wearing Majora's Mask to be playable in the next SSB game, out of all the Zelda characters I would like him the most, but most likely we'll get someone from Skyward Sword or no one at all.
But can you imagine his Final Smash, it would either be him hurling the moon onto the stage or the mask would become Majora's Wrath.
