Childish

Misjudgment

It almost felt wrong when Majora fell. When everything returned to normal. Where kafei could marry as an adult, Cremia and Romani could grow up together. Where traveling performers could continue there dace and games. It almost felt.. Wrong but odd should be the better word for the job. As  the moon faded away and the sunrise a thought passed through links head

'Its the dawn of a new day' with that his eyes began to open and his body shifted sitting up he says the skull kid, no mask no colors no face. With his yellow eyes and bill.

"Hey, he's awake!" Tatl smiled with her brother beside her as they floated above links head. The skull kid stared up at the giants as if they were talking with no words. Till the giants let out a strange groan sound that echoed through his pointed ears.

The skull kid started trembling whimpering his tears and hiccup "y-you still thought of me as your friend?" he help but whimper out grinning a pang of sadness to link remembering the story of the little demon. Both Tatl and teal left links side as they tried to nuzzle his cheek and jingle anything to make the imp feel better about this.

The moment was short lived as the giant of the north began to sing all of the giants started to take there 100 steps again leaving the skull kid to just let his tears fall. The imp now knew this had to happen he understood why they did it. To protect all the people he tried to hurt.

As the footsteps faded into nothing the skull kid wiped his tears and lifted his head turning to link. He waddled over to him a little and couldn't help but ask with a tilt of his head "did.. Did you save me?" he leaned forward a little for links answer as the boy in green stood.

"Yeah, I did... But why did you do it?" link asked standing straight and proud with no fear though his face was gentle not wanting to show he was mad at him.

The skull kid looked away looking out at the distance and sighed. "I thought they didn't want to be friends with me... but they hadn't forgotten about me..." the skull kid seemed to smile a bit thinking "friends are a nice thing to have he, he." the childish imp giggles finally turning to link again thinking. "Could you be my friend, too?"

The skull kid walked right up into link and sniffed him making the boy rather uncomfortable "eh-hee-hee you have the same smell as the fairy kid who taught me the song in the woods!" he laughed and bounced as Link couldn't help but laugh. "Iknow! I know! Let's do something!" he giggles as you could hear the rattle of his wooden limbs.

"Oh... so the evil has left the mask after all..."  link and the skull kid flinched looking over to the mask salesmen who only now made his presence known as he turned to the four. "Well now I finally have the mask back" he held his normal big smile that caused his eyes to squint. Bowing himself over he laughed. "Sice I'm in the midst of my travels, I bid you farewell" he walked between the two kids in silence nothing but the world around them for noise

"W-wait!" link ran following but Tatl didn't she watched with her brother and the skull kid. The mask salesman turned to link with a hum holding his hands together rubbing them. "I-if the mask has no evil left in it would you be willing to sell it?" Tatl flew over in angered jingling.

"LINK! What do you think you're doing that mask almost killed everyone!!" she yelled right in the boy's face but Link couldn't get something out of his sight... the boy under the tree sitting alone. It reminded him too much of himself it hurt and he knew that wasn't the skull kid the mask was without him when he went in the moon.

"The mask, it was... it was lonely" link tried to explain but Tatl wasn't buying it as she bounced up and down in frustration. He lowered his head at the salesmen "please I know its dangerous"

What the young hero didn't expect to see was the colourfull mask being held out to him. "Take it Consider it a token of my thanks" he's smile seemed genuine like back at the store in castle town. "The reason I became a mask salesman was to make people happy, who knows maybe this time the mask will be happy as well." the salesmen smiled as link took the colored mask and with that, he walked away.
