Going outside of Zebrica. Link, Twilight, Applejack, and all their friends were on the train, heading for Mt. Aris, the Hippogriffs home and personal quarters. Seaquestria was right next door to it, and the inhabitants could come and go as they please and become hippodromes to breath underwater. A few clouds of smoke were coming from on top of the mountain, and it looked like a few fires were lit on the summit. What was worse was that; no hippogriffs were found in sight near where they were, it it almost looked deserted like before when the Storm King forced them all to live in Seaquestria.
"Where is everypony?" asked Pinkie Pie.
"Maybe they're on the mountain." Rainbow Dash speculated. "What if they are in Sequestria right now?"
Applejack gasped with realization. "Maybe Majora beat us here before we did." she said. Everyone else looked shocked and realized that Applejack might be right on that. "Do you think he and his monsters are attacking Mt. Airis right now?"
"Only one way to find out, Applejack." said Link. "Come on!" They all rushed down the path that lead to the summit of Mt. Aris, and there were still no Hippogriffs in sight at all. The sounds of explosions and destruction was heard the sooner they were all getting closer to the summit. Eventually, at the city, there were a few corpses of Lizalfos, bokoblins, and a few moblins.
A few houses were on fired, and many Hippogriff guards were fending off any incoming enemies that were attacking this beautiful city. One guay was kicked at a nearby window with the sound of glass and some furniture breaking inside the building.
"Twilight!" said a young man's voice. It was Terramar, the young hippogriff that was the younger brother of Silverstream, one of Twilight's students at her school of friendship. Speaking of which, his big sister followed after him in a panic. "Thank Celestia you guys are here! Monsters have been attacking our home!"
"What the hay is going on here?!" said Silverstream in a panic.
"We'll tell you later, but right now, we need to take care of this ruffians ruining your wonderful home!" said Rarity.
Link pulled out his sword and shield and ran into battle. "For Justice!" he shouted as he was slicing his blade at many enemies that came in contact with him. The ponies came in and kicked, punched, and rammed their opponents with ease. One moblin picked Pinkie by her tail and began swirling her around like a lasso, and threw her off to the sky.
Luckily, Rainbow Dash saw her and caught her in the air before she could hit the ground.
"Whew, thanks Rainbow Dash." the pink pony said.
"Anytime, Pinkie."
Out of in front of her, a kargarok locked onto her like a missile and the cyan pegaus was on a run-in with it. The bird-like monster was trying so hard to gnaw at Rainbow's face like a piece of skin from meat. Rainbow Dash was quick, and she was kicking at it without mercy, and the kargorok managed to bite her right arm, trying to peel it off of her socket.
"Yeow!" she shouted. Rainbow had to kick it in the eye a couple of times to get it off of her.
Meanwhile, Terramar and Silverstream's parents: Sky Beak and Ocean Flow were with the guards in fighting off these monsters. "Sky! Behind you!" said Ocean Flow.
"What?" the male hippogriff looked behind him and saw a dinalfos about to decapitate him with his mighty ax, but Sky Beak was quick and kicked him in the face many times, and it was killed with the most powerful kick in the face it had ever had before. This had to be the toughest and strongest kick Sky had did before.
That blow was powerful enough to kill that monster and disappear into dark smoke. “Ooh. Nice kick, darling.” Said Ocean Flow While clapping her hooves.
Blushing, Sky Beak Said: “Ah, Thanks, sugar lips.”
“Sky Beak! Ocean Flow!” Said Twilight, coming up to them. “What happened here?”
“It was horrible.” Said Terramar’s Father. “We were all doing our normal activities and enjoying a nice life out here on Mt. Aris, but then, these monsters showed up out of nowhere, being led by a scary demon with eyes on his chest.”
Link narrowed his eyes, and he knew what he speculated before. “Majora!” He Said While gritting his teeth.
“Yes! That’s what he called himself.” Ocean Flow Said. “Luckily, we managed to hold our ground up here.”
“Where is everypony else?” Asked Bon Bon.
“They are all hiding down in Seaquestria.” Ocean Flow answered.
Sighing in great relief, the ponies and Spike were so glad to hear the news. “Did he say what he was looking for here?” Asked Colin.
“Yes.” Said Silverstream. “He said something about a mask, of something similar to a mask. And then, wham! He ordered the monsters here to attack us and destroy our homes and-“
“Whoa there, sister.” Said Terramar. “I think they all get the picture.”
“Sorry, little bro.”
“Where’s Queen Novo?” Asked Lyra. “Is she safe?”
“Yes but... But...” Ocean Flow sounded like she didn’t want to talk about it. “We’ll see to her later.”
“My wife is right.” Said Sky Beak. “We gotta take care of these fiends.”
And then, the fighting continued onwards for an extended period of time. Some more monsters were appearing and a couple more houses were being destroyed or demolished or trashed one after the other.
The last enemy was an Iron Knuckle, But Link managed to take it down with a dozen slices of his sword, and stab it in the heart. At last, for that, all the enemies were gone and taken care of.
“There. It is a good thing we all arrived here.” Said Mathayus. “Otherwise, the village would,not survive.”
“Yeah. It’s a really good thing you guys came.” Said Terramar in agreement. “But, we have a few casualties.” He bowed his head and his sister comforted him. “Looks like we lost about nine of our guards.”
“Sometimes it’s too late to save a creature you care about.” Said his father. “They did all that they could. We really appreciate you all coming here to our aid. I thank you all for your bravery and courage.”
Ocean Flow was the next one to speak. “Yes. Do you all know where they all come from?”
“It’s a really long story.” Said Colin.
“But, an evil spirit named Majora is wreaking havoc in this world.” Mathayus added. “We will explain everything to Queen Novo. Do you know where she is?”
Terramar, Silverstream, and their folks had uncomfortable looks on their faces, and they looked like something terrible just happened before what happened now. “Our Queen is not exactly.... herself.” Said Ocean Flow
“What do you mean?” Asked Big Mac
“That monster did something to her.” Sky Beak answered. “He somehow managed to twist and corrupt our Queen somehow. Her duaghter’s gone missing and we son’t Know where she is.”
“Skystar!?” Pinkie gasped. “Oh no! We got to help her out, you guys!”
“Calm down, Pinkie Pie.” Fluttershy Said. “We will save her and the queen. I just hope we’re not too late.”
“Thanks for the advice. You should all get to Seaquestria and tell everyone that it’s okay to come back up here on land.” Link said. “But, is Queen Novo in Seaquestria?”
“Yes.” Said Silverstream. “But Majora somehow managed to make her act all funny. And I Don’t mean the good type of funny, either.”
Epona was the next one to speak and she replied: “Of course that can’t be good. She has obviously turn evil by Majora’s dark magic.”
“Well we gotta help her and the othr hippogriffs!” Pip said boldly.
“Ummm, maybe we should stay up here. You know, where it’s safe?” Said Storm with a pleasing smile on his mug.
“You know why we can’t do that, Storm.” Said Link. “And don’t worry, we’ll be just fine.”
“Can you at least give us some explanation on why they were here in the first place?” Asked Silverstream.”
“Yeah. He was looking for a shard of an ancient mask used by my ancestor to kill Majora.” Link began explaining. The mask was broken into many different shards and we all found some pieces, but we still have a few more to go. Majora wants to destroy it so he can’t be defeated again.”
“Wow. This is serious.” Said Sky Beak. “Tell us more. And what is your name?”
