Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask-A different kind of magic.
Chapter 4-The mountain and the sea-pt 1.
Disclaimer-don't Own Zelda
Link had successfully defeated the evil in the swamp. Next, she had to go to the mountain. She stepped out of Clock Town, and saw a huge piece of ice blocking her way. She looked above that, however, and saw an icicle that looked sharp enough to break the ice. She loaded an arrow into her bow, aimed, and fired. She hit the icicle dead on, causing it to fall and break the ice apart. Tatl and Link went up into the mountains where the Goron's lived. When they got up the mountain, they saw a house. They went in, and the two people who apparently lived there were frozen alive. Continuing up the mountain, they came to the area where the gorons lived. There was a giant bull-like animal attacking the homes. A lone goron saw the Hylian girl and said:
"You had better get out of here, that beast came down from the snowfall temple. It is the one that made it so cold around here."
"I will defeat it." Said Link. She unsheathed her sword and ran at the beast, slashing it's leg and causing obvious pain to it. She saw a bunch of stairs and ran up them. The creature known as Ghot tried to pursue the young girl, but was to big. It launched a bomb in the direction of the heroine, which she easily dodged. She then pulled out her bow and aimed at the creature that was terrorizing the gorons. She fired arrow after arrow at the creature. After 15 arrows, the creature ran into the side of a mountain and exploded. All that was left behind of the mountain guardian was the mask that it was wearing. All of the gorons came out and thanked Link. Tatl congratulated Link on a job well done. One of the gorons presented Link with a bottle of gold dust. Link decided to go back to Clock Town, when she realized that the snow was melting. She went back to the house that she had seen earlier, and went in to see if the two people inside were okay. They were unfrozen now.
"Are you guys ok." Asked Link, very concerned.
"Yes, we are thank you young lady." Said the short one. Link cringed a little at that last remark. The short man then noticed the sword that Link was carrying.
"Hey, let me see that sword for a second." He said. Link handed him her sword, and he said "To bad you don't have gold dust, I could make this blade much stronger." Link then pulled out the bottle of gold dust and showed it to him. After seeing the gold dust, he told her to come back in the morning, and she would be able to pick up her new sword. Link returned to Clock Town and stayed at the inn. When she woke up the next morning, she returned to the smithies, and she was presented the gilded sword. She was about to leave when a goron approached her.
"Please wait." He said. "I need your help."
"What is it?" asked Link and Tatl in unison.
"A friend of mine is trying to clear a road, but does not have a powder keg. Can you please bring him one?"
"You can count on me." Link said an she took the powerful bomb and ran off in the direction of the blocked road. When she got there, the goron laid the keg, lit the fuse, and moved to the side while the bomb went off. When it did, Link decided to see what was down this road. It led to a little ranch.
Suddenly, Tatl said: "Link, look, isn't that your horse?"
Link looked up and saw Epona in a stable. She ran up to her, and, despite the new form Link possessed, Epona instantly recognized her master. Link was so happy to have found her horse that she did not even notice the young girl walk up behind her.
"Hi." Said the girl
"Ah, oh um, hi." Said Link, a little embarrassed.
"Do you like this horse?" asked the girl.
"Actually, this horse belongs to me." Said Link.
"Well, we were wondering when you would show up, she seems to like this song that I hum. Maybe if you play it on that ocarina of yours, the horse will come to you. Oh, and my name is Romani." The girl said.
"I'm Link." Said the heroine of time.
Romani then proceeded to hum the song that Link had heard and learned back in Hyrule, at the Lon Lon Ranch. She followed along with the ocarina. Link was thrilled. She had her ocarina and her horse back. Link said goodbye to her new friend and left the ranch. She played the song of time and found herself once again standing outside the clock tower.
"Where do we go now?" Asked Link.
"The sea." Was the response that Tatl gave.
Link and Tatl went down to the beach and saw that high fences blocked the way to the sea. Link played Epona's song, and got onto the horse. She then proceeded to jump the fences, and made her way down to the sea. On the beach were two bodies. One was a female Zora wearing a purple dress. The other was a gerudo pirate. Link remembered that the song the mask salesman taught her could help tortured souls. She played the song, and the two bodies turned into masks.
"Well, that is cool." Said an amazed Link.
"Yeah, those masks could come in handy." Said Tatl.
Link decided to put on the Zora mask. Suddenly, pain shot through her body. Her skin turned white with blue spots. She grew a few inches taller. Her hair disappeared, and was replaced by the large head that female zora's all have. She grew large fins out of her arms and small ones out of her legs. Her tunic turned into a green dress. When all of this was completed, a female zora was left standing there.
"This is the weirdest thing that has happened to me." Said Link.
"Hey, at least you can breathe under water." Said Tatl.
Link then saw a building that poked out of the water. She jumped into the water and swam over to it. She circled the entire building and saw no entrances.
"Maybe the entrance is underwater…" said Tatl.
Link dove under the water and saw a hole leading into the building. I now owe Tatl a cookie. Mused Link. When she entered, she saw what appeared to be a stage. She walked over to it and was looking at everything that they had set up. Another zora came up to her.
"Ah, Lulu, your looking a lot better." He said.
Link first noticed that the zora had a guitar on his back, then realized that she was called by a different name.
"Lulu?" she asked.
"Yeah, are you okay, you have been really down ever since your eggs got stolen by those pirates." Said the zora guitarist. It was then that Link realized why the gerudo and zora had been on the beach. She must have been fighting to get her eggs back. Link then decided to get the eggs back, and that meant finding out where the gerudo's were hidden.
To be continued.
Sorry about being brief with the first two temples. The woodfall temple was just too much to go into, and, having never seen a female goron before, had to work around that fact when writing the snowfall scenes. Also, I just kind of rushed the ranch because I saw no reason to have too much time spent there. The upcoming chapters are going to be much longer and more detailed.
