What do you want?! Do you have something to say to me, silly rabbit?! I came here to get the Power Of Gold but now I'm a freak and I can't go back to the real world! If I only had the Moon Pearl from the Tower Of Hera, I could go back to my original shape! I've got good reason to be stressed out! So back off! Shoo shoo!

WOW! Your shape didn't change! You got the Moon Pearl, huh?
