Playing this song with the Ocarina of Time returns Link to his regular self, with the only remnants of his time as a Deku being a Mask, which he can wear to become Deku Link once again. Link heads back to the Happy Mask Salesman, who teaches him the " Song of Healing". After being snapped out of this reverie by Tatl, Link plays the " Song of Time" and is immediately thrown back in time to the morning he first entered Clock Town, three days prior. Link remembers Princess Zelda bidding him a sad farewell and telling him that the Goddess of Time is watching over him. On picking it up, memories of Link's departure from Hyrule flood back to him. Link fires a magic Bubble Blast, a skill learned earlier, at the Skull Kid, causing him to drop the Ocarina of Time. With an unearthly shriek, he begins to bring the Moon down to Termina. He then points Link and Tatl's attention to the Moon and challenges them to stop it from falling. He then laughs about how even if " they" were to come, they would not be able to stop him. The Skull Kid, in response to Tael's outburst, hits the Fairy aside. Seemingly not hearing, Tael delivers an enigmatic warning to Tatl, to find four beings from the swamp, mountain, ocean, and canyon. Upon arriving, Tatl asks that the Skull Kid give Majora's Mask back. At midnight on the Final Day before the Mask Salesman's departure, Link is able to reach the top of the Clock Tower for a face-off with the Skull Kid. Link also hears rumors and whispers of the Moon, which bears a grimacing and ominous face, steadily growing closer to the Town as Skull Kid pulls it out of its orbit. Link is able to do little around Clock Town, but with the help of the Great Fairy and Professor Shikashi, he manages to find the Skull Kid hanging around the top of the Clock Tower. Link sets off in his Deku form, finding himself in the parallel world of Termina. He also warns Link that he must leave in three days, and that Link must retrieve the Mask and the Ocarina by then. The Happy Mask Salesman reveals that the Skull Kid stole Majora's Mask from him and that he can return Link to his human form if he finds the Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask.
With limited abilities, Link follows the Skull Kid's path and finds himself inside the Clock Tower of Clock Town, where he meets the Happy Mask Salesman. She then insists that Link take her with him, so that they can work together to find the Skull Kid and Tael. However, Tatl's delay causes her to be separated from her brother and the Skull Kid. He then leaves Link with Tael, while Tatl continues to beat the helpless Deku back. When Link catches up with the Skull Kid, he tells Link that he "got rid of" Epona, and uses the dark magic of Majora's Mask to transform Link into a Deku Scrub. Skull Kid transforms Link into a Deku Scrub When Link awakens, the Skull Kid takes off on Epona with the Ocarina and leads Link on a chase. The Skull Kid searches the unconscious Link for goods and finds the Ocarina of Time. The two Fairies knock Link off his Horse, Epona, rendering him unconscious. His trip is interrupted by the Skull Kid, an imp possessed by evil contained in Majora's Mask, which he wears after having stolen it from another traveler with the help of two Fairies, Tatl and Tael. The opening to the game states that he is searching for his friend, Navi. Majora's Mask opens with a scene of Link leaving the land of Hyrule on a personal quest.
