//------------------------------// // Re-awakening and Defeat // Story: The Story Of Sky Blue // by Capulus //------------------------------// As all of this commotion was happening in the real world, Sky was actually dreaming quite a happy and relaxing dream. She was flying with Rainbow Dash, soaring above the clouds. They weren’t racing, it was just a nice easy pace. Fluttershy could probably keep up with them going at this pace. They touched down lightly on a cloud and knelt across from each other. Her and ‘Dash knelt in awkward silence for a while. Sky felt herself blushing enough to make a tomato envious as she looked Rainbow in the eyes. “Um... Listen... Rainbow, I’ve got something to tell you. It is really important, so please don’t interrupt. Ever since I met you, although it was only a day ago, I felt something for you. I probably would have been among the first to say love at first sight is ridiculous, but when I met you, Rainbow Dash, I believed in it more than ever.” Her eyes had lowered, and she locked eyes with Rainbow’s once more. “Rainbow Dash... I... I love you.” “Awww. It looks like one of my best troops is in loove! We’ll just have to do something about that, won’t we!” Sky looked around wildly for the source of the voice. It seemed to be coming from everywhere and nowhere at once. She huddled into a ball as the cloud and Rainbow twisted and melted away, leaving her in pitch black darkness. “It doesn’t matter what you and your petty new friends do, nothing can stop the return of Discord! MWUHAHAHAHA! Soon we shall control all of Equestria.” Sky uncurled herself and looked around. “The Elements of Harmony beat Discord before, and they will again!” She shouted this into the darkness, her words being swallowed and muffled. “Hahaha... You little fool. If you hadn’t of been careless and let your conscience take over, you would know how untrue that statement is.” “What do you mean, let my conscience take over? Tell me!” “That isn’t a very nice way to address you master.” “What do you mean? I don’t even know who you are!” “Hmm. Stop fooling yourself Sky Blue. You know I am the one and only Queen Chrysalis, soon to be the ruler of all Equestria!” Sky rubbed her head. She was remembering some things vaguely. She was starting to get a headache. “Just answer me! What did you mean about my conscience taking over?” “All in good time, little Sky. For now, I might just have some fun messing with your min-- wait, what’s that? NO! GET OUT SHAMAN!” Sky felt the presence of Queen Chrysalis fade away, and she saw Zecora galloping towards her out of the darkness. “There you are, little Sky Blue, I have been looking all over for you! Your mind really is quite a mess, And before you ask, the answer is yes.” Sky closed her mouth, the question ‘Did you hear that?’ dying on the edge of her tongue. Sky just knelt down and began to cry. “Do not cry little Blue, I will not reveal what is felt by you.” “So you heard what I said to Rainbow? Or at least, how I feel?" “Like I said, do not worry, For these feelings, you should not be sorry. Love is a wondrous thing, It can make your heart sing. Now let us leave your mind, and see the others, Just being near her makes me shudder.” Sky felt her hooves leave the ground and floated away, into her chaotic conscious world.
