//------------------------------// // Chapter 5 // Story: Dream of Flight // by Blueheartpegasus //------------------------------// Princess Celestia and Princess Luna sat side-by-side with Blue Heart, Twilight, Pinkie, and Rainbow in front of them. "Now, we have to gather our magic to send you four back." Celestia said. "Ready, Luna?" "Ready, older sister." Luna said. The two Alicorns' horns began to glow with magic. The glow became stronger and stronger until it was blinding. Then their magic flew at each other, colliding in the middle and building in a giant ball of glowing light. The ball grew bigger and bigger until it was big enough to fit all four ponies inside. "Quick, get in." Celestia murmured, voice strained with the effort of holding all of the magic there. Twilight was first. She hopped in, and disappeared within. Pinkie Pie then hopped in, then Rainbow Dash flew in. Blue Heart was last. She looked up at Celestia. "Hurry." she told the filly. Blue Heart nodded, the princess winked, and the unicorn filly clopped towards the ball of magic. It swirled in front of her hypnotically. It was the most beautiful thing that she had ever seen. She held her breath and jumped in. She opened her eyes. It was hot, it burned, she needed fresh air. All around her was swirling masses of different colors. Blue, red, yellow, pink, purple, orange all swirled around her, confusing her and making her dizzy. She seemed to be rushing through a tunnel, and she felt like she was going to throw up. Just as suddenly as she had entered to hot, swirling tunnel, she exited it. She was blinded by morning light and was thrown into something soft. She stood, rubbing her head to make the dizziness headache go away. She looked around. She appeared to be alone in a room. she had landed on something like a bed with blue sheets. There was a big, strange device that appeared to be a thick mirror. But the view wasn't clear- the glass seemed to be black. "Who are you?" Blue Heart jumped as an unknown voice rang out behind her. ---- Emily landed on Sarah's roof. She jumped off, landed easily in front of the door, and rudely broke the door down. In this strange circumstance, she really didn't care how rude she was. They were ponies, for goodness sake! She heard a scream. She raced to find where the scream was coming from, and found a pink Earth Pony mare on the floor, hooves over her eyes. "Who are you?" she asked, jumping up and hiding behind the couch. "Are you Sarah?" Emily asked. She wasn't sure, the mare could be anybody- er, anypony. "Y-yes." she stammered, "who are you?" she repeated. "I'm Emily!" She flew over to her friend's side and wrapped her hoof around her. "Don't worry, it's okay." "Why am I a pony?" she asked. "We're My Little Ponies." she said, "I don't know why." "My Little Pony?" she asked. "You mean, from that baby show?" "I have to admit something to you." Emily sighed, "I am a big fan of My Little Pony. I don't know what's going on, but I know about these ponies, okay? We should get back to my house, quickly." ---- Emily clopped into her house. I was pretty beat up. Doors and windows had been kicked open when she had been panicking. "Let's go in my room." She told Sarah, still attempting to calm down her friend. She led Sarah to her room. Suddenly, there was a blinding flash and her and Sarah both fell back. Emily stood and grabbed Sarah's tail in her mouth as she tried to run off. "Nothing will happen to you while you're with me." she reassure her. The pink unicorn stopped and followed Emily, but kept shaking with fear. Emily clopped into her room. what had that flash been? Then she spotted a blue Unicorn filly on her bed. Had a child gotten in? Why wasn't it panicking like everybody else? It looked like a school-age pony from the show. She clopped closer to the bed and looked at the filly. She was azure with a darker blue mane and tail and cyan eyes. "Who are you?" she asked, and the filly jumped.
