IGNORE WHAT I SAID LAST CHAPTER. I had enough time to write this during the weekend, and oddly, ideas and words just flew to me. this chapter finishes off what happens with Link and Malon, and their story actually happened to me, except I was Link. This was oddly AFTER I posted the original idea of Sigmond and I'm pretty sure I just predicted the future. The ending here is what actually happened with me and my ex (Except we hugged). the other stuff is just preparing for other games, trust me, you'll get it by the end of the chapter. Have a Pie-filled day!
Chapter 14
Back stories and side quests
Majora's POV
The life of a taking mask is hard. I bet you wouldn't think of that but, people don't really believe me when I say that before I was a mask, I was a feared demon. Even Gretta's mom, who's great-grandmother had sealed me, thinks I'm just a pest, LIKE A BEE! I'M A MASK THAT CAN SHOOT TENTACLES AND HAS POWERFUL TELEKINESIS. Too bad I don't want to destroy hyrule (otherwise I'd be homeless). If we ever go to a new world, I am DEFINITELY blowing that shit up like nuclear warfare.
Anyways, my pupil and the morons of this little group were walking around the blown up hyrule castle town, killing redeads for training.
"GO GO SLOW ASS REDEAD, IF YOU CAN'T KILL LINK THEN I'LL DO IT MYSELF!" I sang, annoying our protagonist in green. Did I already make fun of the fact that he's wearing a skirt?
"Majora." I looked up to see Gretta, putting some redead blood in a bottle.
"How do you use redead blood in a potion?" I asked, thinking why zombies have blood.
"I don't. I just occasionally pour it on people's graves and watch as they become temporary redeads." She shrugged "they die as soon as the sun comes out."
"Hey… where's Farore…" Navi whispered. She was paranoid today.
"Dead." I said.
"SHUT UP! MASKS CAN'T TALK!" she began to hide behind Gretta and began to mutter rapidly about purple flashlight-weilding aliens who steal cows. I rolled my eyes.
"Wait a minuete… where is Farore?" Gretta asked, knitting her brow. She gazed around as I scanned the houses with my sixth psychic sense. Actually, it's 5th, I can't taste.
-later-
After finding her in the happy mask shop, I telepathicly blew up the place with the rocks nearby, because, what god forsaken place would sell masks? IT'S SLAVERY. pretty sure that was outlawed a couple years ago. And why hasn't anyone spoke up for the poor, defenceless masks? It's not like all of them can possess their owners, someone need to stand up! And that person will be ME, Majora! I told this to Gretta.
"So you're going to kill people who sell masks?" she said, a hint of amusement in her voice.
"YES! THAT IS SELLING PEOPLE!" I began to rant on as Link killed the poes to give to the poe guy. I don't like that guy.
After obtaining all the ghosts, we went back to the guy's hut.
"So, you came back…"
"Yeah yeah, now gimmie a prize." Gretta put the poes in his little cage and stood in front of the hooded hunter, arms crossed and patience low. The ghost master reached into his pocket and pulled out… a bottle.
"WHAT?!" Link yelled.
"Lemmie handle this, I'm better at scaring souls to their cores."Gretta politely said to Link. She turned toward the ghost hunter. "NOW you fatherfucker, I HAVE BEEN HUNTING FOR THESE DANG POES FOR 4 HOURS NOW! DO YOU REALIZE HOW BOREING IT IS?! I HAVE SCOURED THE ENTIRE MAP OF HYRULE FOR THESE WORTHLESS THINGS, THEY DON'T EVEN HAVE ANY KIND OF ORGAN THAT COULD BE USEFUL FOR POTIONS, AND DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY BOTTLES I HAVE, DO YOU, CHEAP BASTARD?!."
"Um… 12?" he whimpered, cowering in the corner. Gretta sat right next to him, her nose touching his.
"Yessss… now, you have two options. 1) give me something better or 2) die a horrible death as I take your blood for potions. Choose wisely." Gretta whispered so calmly, it began to unnerve me.
"P-please, don't hurt me. I'll give you a-anything, l-l-look around and choose what y-you want…" he cowered with his hands covering his head. Gretta smiled
"Better." She looked around and settled on his tall, oak staff. With a goodbye, we left.
"Why did you pick the staff? There was money in there!" I asked Grretta, genuinely confused.
"It's a ghost calling staff."
"What?"
"It's a staff that can call the dead if you use it right, it can also be used for magic."
"But you already have a staff…"
"No, this is for Link, he needs some kind of distance weapon."
"Why not for you?"
"It's weak compaired to mine. She called Link over and explained why she wanted the staff. Link looked suspicious
"So it's mine" Link asked.
"Yeah, depending on where and when you call the dead, you can get different beasts. I think you can also use some sort of magic, but I don't know what kind you're suited for. Can you let me check?" she smiled in a mischievous manner. He thought if he should.
"Look, it's not like you screwed her, you don't pool magic." I said. Link stared at Gretta in horror.
"Well, yeah, I did screw him, but my way was by blood oath." She smiled. "Just give me your hand." Link hesitantly gave his hand to her, internally debating whether magic and power over the dead.
Gretta closed her eyes and sent part of her soul to Link's as a messenger, sencing his personality and she began he laugh to herself. She left his soul.
"Weird. I only did that once before. Anyways. Your power is lycanthropy." She smiled. "Not really magical, but hey, it seems to given to you by Farore so be glad you got something that was partially useful."
"What's lycanthropy?"
"The ability to transform into a wolf."
"Why would that be relevant to the triforce of courage?!" he asked Farore.
"I like puppies. Now they're badass." She simply said, and I had to say, that was acceptable.
"So where are we going next?" Link asked. Gretta began to smile evilly as she headed north.
-later-
"LON LON RANCH?! WHYYYY?" Link yelled, bashing his head with the wall. Gretta shook her head.
"Look, I know that you have a sore spot when you got dumped by Malon, but get over it. We need to save the ranch from Whatshisfase with the weird mustache."
"Ingo?" I asked.
"I think. Do you honestly think I'd take the time to learn the names?"
"No."
"Nope."
"Nada."
"Nice to know that you all believe in me guys."
We went inside the ranch to see Ingo whipping a horse. I telepathicly asked Gretta to teleport Link next to Malon. She smiled and agreed.
-Link's POV-
I felt a tingle sence in my gut and then closed my eyes for no reason. When I opened them, I was staring face-to-face with Malon.
"…Hi."
"Why are you so close to me."
"I just teleported in front of you."
"But…why?"
"The mask's a bitch"
"Ah." We stayed silent for a few moments. "Um…Do you still remember-"
"Yeah." She nervously eyed my sword.
"So. How's Sigmond?"
"Um, I only hired him."
"Oh…" I made a mental note to hew him.
"So how're you doing, Grasshopper?"
"Don't call me that." I lost my sheepish smile.
"Link?"
"What?"
"You're not going to disembowel me… right?"
"Why would I?"
"1) I denied you and 2) I saw what you did to those redeads while I was riding on one of the horses." She shuddered.
"…Malon."
"Yeah…"
"Is there something you'd like to say to me?"
"I-I'm sorry… I was dumb to do that to you…I want to know… are you still single" She looked a bit sorry.
"Yeah…" she moved in front of me, her warm russet eyes looked up to my light blue ones, and she went on her tip toes and her soft scarlet lips touched mine, and we had a few minutes of hevan, our arms holding each other, and our hearts beating as one.
"The years have did you well…" She whispered in my ear when we stopped our kiss. "So… will you forgive me? I'd be honored to be your girlfriend…"
"That's nice… but hell no." I lost my smile and threw her off of me. "You played with me. You denied me. I miss you yes, but I hate you as much as I love you."
"Why…"
But by that time, I left the building.
Um, my mind is quite unfathomable. So I get most of my ideas when I have my breakfast or lunch, and when I originally planned this story, I wasn't going to have Link and Malon in a relationship at all. But oh well, minds change, especially if you are a Gemini like me.
