Fiore is a land full of wonder. Dense forests, tall mountains, deep valleys. Despite the country's relatively small size, (A/N Seriously, look at the official Earthland Map) it is a place where adventure and dreams run rampant. It is here that the goddess Farore sent four beings to live out their lives.

Soon enough, Link, Evan, Tatl, and Tael stepped (or floated) out of the portal and found themselves in a forest, the sun reaching its peak.

"So" Link said, "This is Fiore".

"…Doesn't look much different from Hyrule" Tael spoke up.

"...Maybe Farore sent us to the wrong place".

Tatl then smacked Evan on the head. "Don't be stupid" she scolded, "She is a goddess, of course she knows what she is doing".

"Still…" Evan replied, rubbing his head. He then snapped his fingers "I know!" He then reached into Link's satchel and pulled out his new mask. He moved to put it on.

Link's eyes widened "Evan, wa-", but he was too late, Evan had put on the mask.

Evan soon began to twitch and shiver. He then began contorting violently before arching his head up and screaming into the sky "AAAAAAAAAAGGGGGHGHHHHHGHGH!" A flash of light occurred, and he had emerged in his old Skull Kid form. He fell to the ground, clutching his stomach.

Link and the fairies soon crowded around him. "Sorry Evan" Link spoke up "I should have warned you, first transformation is a rough one".

"You okay Evan?" asked Tael.

"Want to be healed up?" Tatl follow up.

"*Wheeze* No, no, I'm…good." Evan finally said. He then turned to Link, "Are all transformations this bad?"

"No, like I said, only the first time is painful. After that, you only feel a slight sting. I should probably get mine over with as well". Evan sighed in relief before standing up and sniffing the air.

"Oh!" he exclaimed.

"What is it Evan?" queried Tatl.

"I wanted to see if this place smelled any different," He took off his mask, relieved that there was only a slight sting as Link said. "It does, the air smells…stronger".

"...Stronger..." Tatl deadpanned.

"I know what I smelt".

"Perhaps it is the magic of this land," Link added.

"Yeah, I do feel different" Tael said.

"Yeah, yeah, that's all well and good, but quick question. Where are we?" Tatl said.

Evan tilted his head, "In Fiore Tatl. Did the portal fry your brain?"

Tatl just took a deep breath. "Link, check your map please?" she asked in a sickeningly sweet voice.

Link, having been married, knew what the tone of voice meant, and quickly rummaged through his satchel. He paused however, when he felt a small smooth object. "What's this?" he thought, " It's too big to be the compass, I am wearing all my gear, and the masks are in another pocket". He pulled out the object in question and looked on in shock to reveal the Ocarina of Time. "What in the name of Nayru?"

"Hey Link" Tael said, noticing the ocarina, "I thought you said you returned that when you came back from Termina?"

"I did…Oh well, might as well keep it". He put the ocarina back and pulled out the map and compass. Their location glowed green, red, white and purple "Hmmm, it would appear we are near a town called…Acalypha". He then noticed that the upper-right hand corner of the map had the current time and date. "It's 11:00 am, if we leave now we should be able to make it and grab some lunch, I have a bag full of rupees to cover the cost".

"What are we waiting for? Let's go" Tael said.

As the group was nearing the town they were wrapping up their cover story since, after all, it would be suspicious if two fairies, an armed man in green, and a small boy with a trumpet suddenly appeared from out of the woods.

"…Okay so to recap" Tatl said, "Tael and I will hide out in Link's cap while you two pose as father and son looking for work who just moved from…"

Link finished with, "we won't say were we moved from. I'll just say that unfortunate circumstances forced us to relocate from our farm and that I will need a job to get us back on our feet".

"Well what if someone asks what the circumstance was?"

"A jerk noble coupled with a drought".

"Will that work?"

"No matter where you go those things will always be there. Trust me, it'll work.".

"Question" Evan interrupted.

"Yes Evan?" Link responded.

"If we are pretending to be father and son, then…should I…call you Papa?" He asked, head down, poking his fingers together.

Link paused at this, as did Tatl and Tael. He then turned towards Evan, crouched down so that they were looking each other in the eye and said "If that is what you want, then yes, I can be your Papa" Link then opened his arms to give Evan a hug.

Evan just looked up at Link, a hopeful gleam in his eyes, before finally saying "…Nah. That'd be too weird. I'm just going to stick with calling you Link". Then, with an impish smile, he sidled past Link and moved forward.

Tatl, Tael, and Link just stayed glue to their spots before Link got up with a long sigh "…Okay, I'll admit it, he really had me going there".

"Yeah…" Tatl spoke up.

"Back as a Skull Kid he was always a trickster, especially considering the fact that not having a true face made lying and telling jokes easier. Considering that he just got his face back, and he can already control what he shows on it…" Link trailed off.

"…By the goddesses…we've created a monster" Tael finished, horror creeping in his voice.

"Hey guys!" Tael jumped in fright, Evan suddenly appearing right behind them. "The town is just over that bend…you okay Tael? You're light's looking a little dim".

"Oh yeah, I'm perfectly fine, nothing wrong with me. Nosiree bob" the fairy blabbered.

Evan narrowed his eyes, causing the fairy to squirm a bit. "Okay. Glad you're feeling all right" he smiled and continued down the path, tooting on his trumpet. Link and the fairies just shared a long look before shivering and following him.

A/N: Here it is. Chapter two. There will be interactions with Fiorans (is that how you say it?) next chapter. Also, Link and Evan's current physical ages are 24 and 10 respectively. Oh, and send me some thoughts as to any new masks the foursome should acquire, as well as magics they should learn. I already have some lined up, but would like to hear your suggestions.

P.S. So, I can't see any new reviews that anyone posted. I can see the numbers, its currently eleven, but the last review listed is from June 26 by 'The Grimm Fate'. Weird, I know, but I can't see any criticisms people wrote, so that is horribly detrimental for me (if anyone else has this problem let me know). For those that previously posted, and any that would want to post, just PM your review. Hopefully the problem will be fixed soon.
