Twilight was baffled to hear she needed to leave ponyville.
"Wha- What do you mean? What's wrong?" Twilight asked profusely.
"I received a letter from one of my royal guard scouts that a disturbance has fallen upon ponyville. Twilight, have you met anypony unusual lately?" Celestia asked.
"There was one pony with an awfully strange voice wearing a hood. I accidentally bumped into him when I was heading to the castle. Is there something wrong about him?" Twilight shivered.
"You must stay away from that pony!" Celestia demanded.
"If this is a friendship problem, I'm sure I can handle it." Twilight walks past Celestia only to see the same hooded pony right in front of her. All the courage in Twilight's body faded away. This pony had an evil aura to him that friendship wasn't gonna solve.
"Twilight get behind me." Celestia said sternly. Twilight did as she was told and backed up behind princess Celestia.
"What do you want?!" Celestia snapped angrily.
"I just want to have a little fun." The hooded pony's voice was like that from a nightmare. "To start, I need to take out all the princesses of equestria. Like I've done before." The pony laughed an evil wicked laugh.
"You will never do anything of the sort nor will you ever do it again!" Celestia charged her horn with magic and blasted the hooded pony with a yellow beam. The hooded pony got hit by the blast and disappeared, leaving his cloak to fall to the ground. Celestia had successfully banished the pony to the moon. However, Celestia still had that disturbing feeling that there was something wrong.
Was that pony even the disturbance I was sensing? I need to make sure. Celestia puzzled. Celestia used her magic to examine the moon for anypony, but what she saw caused her heart to drop.
"The pony I banished to the moon is not there!" Celestia alerted.
"What?!" Twilight yelled in uneasy disbelief.
"Looking for me?" The same demonic voice came from behind Twilight and Celestia. Both of the princesses turned around with a quick jolt to see a Pegasus flying above them. He had no mane or tail, and he had an evil expression on his face. Although, the most striking thing about this Pegasus was his colored fur. A normal pony usually has all his or her fur in one color, but this pony's colors cut down the middle of his body. The right side of him is all white, and the left side of him was black from his hooves to his wings. Neither Twilight nor Celestia had seen any pony like him before.
"Did you just- ?"
"Yes I did." The Pegasus answered Celestia before she even asked her question, which caused Celestia's despair to grow even more.
"I flew from the moon to the earth in about.." The pony looked down at his front bare forehoof like he was checking a watch. "...Five seconds. I think that's a new record."
"Who are you? How did you do that?!"Twilight yelled in pure confusion.
"My name is Xero. I could take all day to explain how I went from the moon to the earth. And you know what, I'm not gonna do it!"
Xero exclaimed.
"Wh- wha-?" celestia stuttered. The feeling of disbelief still on her face.
"I'm not gonna waste time on explaining myself! I'm just gonna do what I initially came here to do!" And with that, Xero punches Celestia square in the face with his white hoof at blinding speed. Celestia's face made contact with the hoof causing a huge white explosion to emit from the pony's hoof that knocks her out cold.
Twilight gazed at Celestia in shock. The feeling of dread overcame her as Princess Celestia, her teacher, was knocked out with a single punch by this Pegasus. Twilight's mind was racing.
This is impossible! Twilight screamed to herself. There's no way Princess Celestia could be defeated so easily by this pony!
"You're next..." Xero whispers right next to twilight's ear with the twin pitched voice. An evil expression of delight came from his face. Twilight screams a bloodcurdling scream and quickly begins the teleportation spell. She knew all she needed to do was think of the place to teleport and she'll be there. She also needed to remember to take Celestia with her. There is no way this pony will leave Celestia alone after I left. Twilight focused all of her magic into this one teleportation spell and closed her eyes. Once she opened them, she was on the streets of Cloudsdale.
It was a good thing she was an Alicorn otherwise she would be falling through the clouds. Only ponies with wings can stand on clouds. Twilight looked around at the floating city in the sky. There were many pegasi flying too and fro, noticeably one cross eyed pony flying upside down, and saw Celestia passed out right next to her with a black eye which was beginning to swell.
Good, she managed to teleport with me. Twilight smiled. Twilight was also looking out for any pony who was half colored black and white and was relieved to not see him anywhere in sight. Twilight thought, Why did he let me teleport? Twilight had bigger things she needed to worry about.
Twilight looked at Celestia and began to cry. Salty tears welled up in her eyes as she pictured what had just happened to her all powerful teacher. The only time Twilight saw Celestia in a state like this was when she got defeated by Queen Crysalis, but this was way faster. Celestia was being unresponsive to anything twilight attempted. She tried shaking, using her magic, and also slapping. Her feelings couldn't be contained anymore. She needed help from other ponies.
"PLEASE HELP!!" Twilight screamed tears flowing down her face. "CELESTIA'S HURT!!"
In a flash the Wonderbolts arrived at the scene leaving behind their thundercloud stream wearing their Wonderbolt outfits. Rainbow Dash was sleeping on a nearby cloud and heard Twilight's cry. Rainbow had never seen Twilight this distressed before.
"Why are you up here in Cloudsdale, twilight?" Rainbow asked. She looked down at Celestia and her jaw dropped. "And what happened to Celestia!?" Rainbow asked.
"Princess Celestia, please wake up!" Soarin, the leader of the wonderbolts, was shaking Celestia with all of his might but was left with no response. "This is serious, we need to get Celestia to the hospital."
"But the hospital is all the way back in ponyville. And I used up all my magic to get her here," Twilight bawled. Twilight was in no state to teleport again.
"Didn't you know? We have a hospital here too." Rainbow declared. "In fact it's right over there." Rainbow Dash pointed her hoof in the direction of a large two story building made of clouds. The entrance had large glass doors, tall cloud columns and a big Red Cross on the front of the building. A sign on the outside of the building read: "Cloudsdale hospital"
"Excellent!" Soarin' exclaimed and rushed into the building along with the rest of the wonderbolts. After a couple of minutes, four pegasi wearing paramedic uniforms burst out of the doors carrying a large stretcher. All four pegasi carefully picked up Celestia and laid her down on the stretcher and flew her into the Hospital. Twilight wiped the tears from her eyes with her hooves.
She was happy that Celestia was in good care, but she was worried about someone else now, Xero.
"So what happened to Celestia?" Rainbow dash repeated her question. Twilight didn't want to think about the traumatic experience she just witnessed, but she had to tell her friends about it.
"I'll tell you what happened once I gather everypony else." Twilight reassured.
