Panic begins to creep up from the bottom of your stomach to the top of your chest, this could be it for your getaway. If only you had a means to fool the pirate on the other side of the door... <span class="mu-b">"Ah, but you do! Let me handle this one, good buddy, I do a great <span class="mu-s">Goriya</span> impression. Just put me on and let me do the talking."</span> You hear <span class="mu-s">Oshi</span> pipe up in the back of your mind.
Glad for the help, you grab the mask from where it's hanging on your waistband. Between your fingers, the wood begins to warp, and the paint flakes into little chips that disintegrate rapidly. The simple, non-threatening visage of a fox is quickly replaced with that of a sharp-fanged, darkly colored wolf. You affix it to your face carefully, tucking the string behind your ears.
The <span class="mu-s">Sheikah</span> regards this with quiet caution, and as you move towards the door you notice her stepping back and towards the rear window.
<span class="mu-i">THUNK-THUNK</span>
The interloper knocks on the door a couple more times before speaking up again. <span class="mu-r">"Boss? Why's it all quiet alluva sudden? Ya know we don't care what tha two of ya do together, just sounded rougher than usual! Don't be embarrassed or nothin'..."</span> He says.
<span class="mu-r"><span class="mu-i">"GRRGRGRRAARFH!"</span></span>
<span class="mu-s">Oshi</span> barks loudly, audibly instead of with his telepathic powers, and you can practically feel the crew mate whince on the other side of the door. Your fairy friend goes on, however. <span class="mu-r">"GOT QUIET ON ACCOUNT OF I'M LOOKIN' FER ENOUGH HATCHETS TA CHOP YA INTO SIX BITS WITH ONE SWING IF YA DON'T GET BACK TA YER POST THIS MINUTE! DON'T COME BACK TIL' WE'RE AT THA <span class="mu-s">BLOCKADE</span> YA BILGE-BUG, OR I'LL FLOG YA FER A WEEK AND A DAY AND TEN MORE AFTER THAT!"</span> He snarls with startling wrath. His voice is uncannily just alike the now destroyed <span class="mu-s">Captain</span>, and were you not wearing the mask on your own face you'd fear that he'd somehow returned.
<span class="mu-r">"Y-Y-YESSER, SORRY BOSS, RIGHT AWAY!"</span> Replies the rattled inferior, and you hear footsteps scamper off and away.
<span class="mu-s">Oshi</span> snickers at this, and reverts to the form of a <span class="mu-s">Keaton Mask</span>. <span class="mu-b">"Heh, like a charm... Ok pal, let's put this place behind us with a quickness, I got hands to shake and babies to kiss."</span> He says.
You keep the mask on, but turn it around so it rests on the back of your head and doesn't obstruct your view. Turning around, you can see that the other <span class="mu-s">Sheikah</span> has opened one of the rear windows and is looking out at the sea. She seems to feel your gaze, and turns to face you, and stands still a moment as if measuring you - the bandages on your head, the <span class="mu-s">Lens of Truth</span> at your waist, and of course the magic mask that you are wearing backwards.
