Chance just looked at the mask. "I don't know how I feel about you putting that mask on, Ester. There are some... things, you shouldn't feel."
Link stared at the mask. "Which is why I didn't want her to deal with this. But the Band will want to play again when they see her, and the kids... the boys need a mother, and Tasha, well she's always looked up to Lulu and wanted voice lessons, before Lulu grew ill." Link looked up at Ester pleadingly. Chance got in between Ester and the mask, however, and said, "Think about what you're doing! She's his WIFE! As far as we know, he'll try to get between us."
This made Link pause. through his teeth, he said "Could you tell me what this is really about?"
Chance drew his sword "I won't let you have my girlfriend for your own twisted fantasies."
Link clenched his fists. "That's not what this is about, Chance!" But Chance had already lunged at Link, and they began fighting each other.
Then the door creaked open just small enough for four young Zoras to watch their dad fight, and the female one to notice the mask on the bed.
"MOMMY!!!"
Everything seemed to stop moving as the girl ran to the bed, sobbing.

Ester simply stared sadly at the mask, knowing she would have to be the one to put it on. As much as she didn't want to know all about what happened between Lulu and her dad, she knew she had to. But before she could pick up the mask, Chance was in front of her. "Chance...my father would never-" She turned to see Link had overheard, and she bit her lip.
Suddenly she looked like she was going to be sick. "Chance! He would NEVER do that to his own daughter! Even if-" But before she could finish, Chance lunged at Link, a spray of bubbles bubbling up from where he stood as they fought. Ester tried, in vain, to get them to stop, shouting as loudly as she dared with the Zoras just outside.
"MOMMY!" The sound of the little girl made Ester freeze, her heart nearly stop in her chest. Her eyes slowly looked over at the poor Zora, and she felt simply helpless. This is what her father had wanted to keep from happening. He didn't want to simply have Lulu back, he wanted everyone to be happy. Ester had failed. The Terminian girl sank to her knees, tears invisible in the water, but the reddish blotches on her face were a clear sign of crying.
Quietly, she managed to choke out "I-I'm sorry... so sorry you had to learn it this way...Your mommy..." Ester couldn't help but wipe her eyes, though there wasn't much to wipe away underwater. "She was hurting.... so the only way she could be at peace..." She choked up, covering her face with her hands. It was all too much for her.

The girl Zora whom Link had identified as Tasha turned to Ester. there was no anger visible on her face, just understanding. "What was that tune you played?" she asked suddenly as Ester kept crying.
Link, still in the form of Mikau stated simply "It is the Song of Healing." but would not speak beyond that.
"Wait a second!" one of the Zora children said, realizing where he knew the name of the song. "Mom said she heard the name of that song before. But she said it was used to help one of us get to safety when our life was in danger, not cause, well... that!" Mikau's face suddenly went from light blue to pure white. "Rook, what else about that do you know?" Japas asked.
"It was a girl that couldn't breath water... and no one could figure out how she got down in the Zora hall... wait a second!" Rook walked directly over to Ester. "Hold your breath." he said after which he removed her hat. her golden hair floated as several of the Zoras, after seeing her face completely, connected the dots. Rook replaced the hat and the magic abilities of the tunic were restored.
~This is bad. this is very bad~ Mikau/Link and Chance thought at the exact same time. Tasha however, ran over to Ester yelling "Sis!!!"
The members of the Band, while a bit shocked, started laughing. "Mikau you son of a Gerudo, where have you been keeping the girl all these years?" Tijo asked. Evan patted him on the back. "You don't think we didn't notice when she was born do you? You are one Helluva Liar. At least Lulu believed you all this time... Link!"
Chance did a double take. "Wait... YOU GUYS KNEW!!!!" he fell over laughing as Link stuttered and then simply fell into a state of speechlessness. Tasha laughed "We aren't as dumb as you think! and besides, when your actual sister isn't even the same species as you, it's kind of hard not to go snooping." she finished by sticking her tongue out at link and pulling Ester into a hug.
"It's alright sis, no one will force you to wear mom's Mask." she paused in thought, "Unless you wanted to teach me how to sing like her, I suppose..." Chance kept laughing with the rest of the band, until Tijo said, "So is she going to put the mask on so we can play our next Gig, or do we disband?"
_____________________________________________________
Ester jumped when she heard one of the boys speak up suddenly. She cocked her head, looking equally confused, until they took off her helm. She covered her mouth with a hand to keep all the air in, staring back at them. What were they looking for? Feeling the mask of air being replaced, she took in a breath, still wondering what it was all about. The Zora named Tasha giving her a hug was somewhat of a shock. She froze momentarily, then patted the girl on the back a bit awkwardly. So they knew.... what exactly? That their fathers were the exact same person?
However, their explanation made her blink, then glance over to her father. She stared in amazement. So they all knew? They knew Link was actually Mikau and that Ester was Link's daughter? But wait... Tasha didn't acknowledge her as a stepsister, and that girl that left the Zora Hall- "Wait, so I'm Lulu's daughter??" she gasped, looking at her father straight on. There was a mix of pain and amazement in her eyes. He had lied to her, saying her mother died during childbirth, when her true mother was at the bottom of the Great Bay!
She was still on her knees, simply staring ahead. "I don't know.... putting on Lulu- I mean Mom's mask would make her memories mine. As much as I want to know what she was like...." Ester exhaled, a stream of bubbles floating to the ceiling. "I just don't think I should..."
_____________________________________________________
Mikau walked over to his daughter. After he finally had his big secret out in the open, he figured he should at least help her know what was going to happen.
"Listen, Ester... there's something you should know. Both of us, that is, Mikau and I came to an understanding and let our minds completely merge when I don the Mask I got from him. You and Lulu don't have to know everything about each other when you put the mask on. Just what you both agree on sharing with eachother. I'm sorry I never told you about Mikau. I was... scared you'd call me a freak and run away from home." He looked at the ground. "Will you do this for the band. and your sister?"
Tasha smiled "I wouldn't mind learning how to sing from you, sis!" she said cheerfully. The other members of the band started saying things like "This could work rather well." and "I say we let her keep the mask."
Chance was trying not to get out of control again. he kept reminding himself that murder was strictly forbidden, and that it was Ester's choice.
Ester looked down at her hands, trying to think it over. "Yeah... I know Dad. I.... probably wouldn't have ran away..." She gave a little smirk and a shrug. "I'll do it" Everyone was cheering as she took the mask, everyone except Chance. Ester glanced over at him, trying to give him a reassuring smile, but he still didn't seem happy about it.
Gently, she put the mask on her face, quickly feeling the pain that she remembered when she had first put on the Deku mask. Her skin turned a pale blue and her clothes seemed to meld with her body. Her head became bulbous at the top, like a fat triangle with the flat edge as her forehead. Long fins grew from her forearms and a dark blue dress formed from out of nowhere on her body, as well as fins on her calves and feet.
Everything just turned black in her field of vision, all except Lulu. Ester walked up to her slowly, "So... you're my mother. I just wish...." She let out a sigh, "I just wish we could have spent time... with each other. Not like this."
Lulu simply hugged her. "You know you would have been miserable in the Hall with us. being the only Terminian there... It was hard on me too." she looked into her daughter's eyes lovingly. "Don't tell your father, but I knew from the minute he played a riff that he wasn't fully Mikau." she laughed. "Now what is it you need to know, and what would you rather I keep to myself? I assume you don't want to know everything?"
Ester looked surprised when she was hugged. It felt oddly warm, but she hugged her mother back, feeling like crying again. Ester smiled at her remark about Link. "Well... I don't know! I never thought I would get the chance, I guess." At a certain thought, her cheeks turned pink, "Oh, how about how you and Mikau, the real Mikau, met? And... what life was like up until... well... a few minutes ago...But please, leave out the sordid details about you and Dad... doing things..."
____________________________________________________________________
"Well at least I know you aren't interested in private matters!" Lulu joked "Just so you know, if you want to talk again, feel free to sing the notes in the song you played to let me rest in peace. Now then, let's get started."
Suddenly Ester began hearing voices other than both of theirs as visions of what happened flashed before her eyes. there were memories of Mikau and her swimming through coral caverns. and when Mikau proposed, and her and the Band performing. there were a few arguments, but nothing serious.
Then there was a memory lapse, and Lulu was holding four newborns and screaming for help as a baby girl seemed to be drowning. Mikau played the song of healing and she was brought to the surface in an air bubble soon after. Also, as a side effect of bearing a Terminan child, Lulu became ill, and Mikau did not return except to visit occasionally. When the memories were done, Ester heard more screaming, but this time it was Chance yelling profanities at her father.
"Let me at him! He will perish a thousand times if she doesn't start moving in the next THREE SECONDS!" Chance screamed, being restrained by the Zoras in the room.
Ester watched the memories in awe. It was so much better than just being told stories! Slowly, everything went from black to fuzzy, and then from fuzzy to normal. She blinked, looking around. "Wait, what's happening?? Chance!" She ran up to him, well, swam up to him, reaching out.
"WHAT?!?!?" Chance shouted, not realizing at first that it was Ester. then he calmed down. "This no murder stuff is harder than I thought. Are you ok?"
The band members looked at each other "Are you two... together or something?" Japas asked. Chance saw Link give him a disaproving look, so he decided to let Ester choose what to say about it.
_____________________________________________________
After all that feel-good memory stuff with her true mother, Ester was shocked. Chance was ready and willing to kill someone AGAIN?? Gently taking off the mask, returning to her original form, she gave a little nod. "Yeah, I'm just fine." Glancing over at the band members, then to her father, Ester was in a pickle. It was apparent her father didn't approve, but Chance was the only guy she had ever met to have been so kind to her, even willing to defend her honor, though it was at the cost of a life. Slowly, she gave another nod, though she still looked uncertain.
She then looked to Chance, "Chance, why did you think I wasn't ok? Nothing bad has happened to me before when I put a mask on. Plus, it was my own decision. Why would you want to kill someone for that?"
____________________________________________________
Now it was chance who felt uneasy. "I- I don't know..." he mumbled, "I guess I'm overprotective?"
Link/Mikau looked at him angrily. "You tried to kill me! Overprotective is an understatement! And you think I'd want you dating my daughter? You, Mr. Happ- Chance, are a madman, and you know it."
There was an awkward silence as realization struck Chance's features. "And you, Mr. Hero, think you know my true identity. Isn't that right?" He crossed his arms almost too fast for the naked eye to follow, a creepy smile covering his normal expression. "Well I've got news for you! twilight can mask absolutely any appearance when it needs to. those times you met me before were illusions. besides," in an instant, his arms were back at his sides, and he looked back to his old self, yet he seemed pissed, "I take it you never told anyone here about that pesky little skull kid, did you?"
The Zoras in the room were getting uncomfortable. Tijo spoke up first. "I think I'll go tune my guitar..." the others followed with Piano and Drum related comments until only Chance, Ester and Mikau/Link were in the room.
____________________________________________________
Ester's eyes darted from her father to Chance, and back again. She was getting so confused. Chance's movements seemed to be getting quicker, and clearly her father knew Chance before! So what was it? Why was Link so set on keeping Chance away from her? "Dad! Tell me what's going on!" she nearly shouted, getting in between the two of them as the Zora's left the room. "If you know him, tell me who he is! What has he done to you to piss you off like this??" She then whipped around, looking at Chance with sad, yet accusing eyes. "Who are you?"
