//------------------------------// // Chapter 2 // Story: The Search For Magical Sunrise // by CommanderOfTheNewLunarRe //------------------------------// I teleported myself to the Everfree Forest. There must be something in the Castle of the 2 Sisters that can help me I thought. When I arrived at the castle I grasped the History of Equestria book and immediately found what I was looking for. The pages read: “Before the 3 tribes of Earthpony, Pegusai, and Unicorn discovered Equestria they were united under the rule of a balance bringing alicorn. With his balance powers he controlled the Sun and Moon and kept the peace between the tribes. He taught the Earthponies to farm, the pegusai to control the weather, and the unicorns magic. He gave them all distinctive properties too. He awarded the unicorns with horns, to the pegasai he gave wings, to earthponies he gave mighty strength. However one day he vanished and the tribes began to fight and argue bringing great blizzards. However the unicorns decided to send a team of their best casters to find him. All they found was a ruined castle to the south behind some mountains.” “That’s it!” I exclaimed out loud. So I set off for the Southern Equestrian Mountains. When I arrived I saw they were huge and I saw no way of getting over without getting hurt until I saw a shack at the base of the largest of the mountains. I knocked on the door and nopony answered so I went in and found some rope, climbing picks, winter coats, a heat lantern, and saddlebags full of medicine, rations and a sword. “What’s this?” I said grapping the sword. It was the same sword from the statue. A note was attached to it that I read aloud: “Come and find me. Signed Magical Sunrise.” When I reached the summit of the first mountain I realized the sun was going down as I was about to wonder how a letter appeared in front of me. I broke the seal and read it. It read: Me and Lunar Shield can handle the Sun and Moon but please hurry Princess Twilight Sparkle. We are all counting on you. I may not know who Magical Sunrise is but if Celestia said he could save Equestria then you find him Princess. -Golden Dust I reached the base of the mountains and saw the most beautiful castle ruins ever. The bricks looked to be a buetiful orange gem. Some banners still flew orange with Elements of Harmony symbol on them. “Wow.” I exclaimed astonished at its buety. I walked through corridors until I arrived at a throne room the throne was made of the symbols for each type of pony. There was an orange crystal chandelier hanging from the roof. I jumped at a voice behind me saying “I wasn’t expectin guest.” As I turned around I saw the pony from the statue. “Aw you found my sword he said walking over to me and grapping the sword from my back. I found Magical Sunrise! I thought. “Who are you young alicorn?” Magical asked me. “I’m Princess Twilight Sparkle of Equestria. Princess Celestia sent me to find you.” I replied “Tia sent you? How is she?” he asked “She is dead.” I said looking down in shame. “No. How?” Magical asked “Queen Chrysalisis of the Changelings killed her. She told me you could save Equestria.” I replied. “Well Princess Twilight. I shall save Equestria then.” Magical said. “Great but uhh how?” I wondered. “With the power of Balance.” He replied. “I still don’t understand what you mean.” I said. “What is there not to understand? I shall challenge Chrysalis to a duel of honor. Because she is a Queen and she beat Tia...” “…And Luna.” I said cutting him off. “…And Luna she will accept thinking she will win. She will get to confident and that will mean her demies.” Magical finished as we set off for Canterlot. however we still had to cross most of Equestria. When we arrived we encountered some Changelings on guard duty who lunar easily knocked out. "Lets move." Magical said.
