Volatile Mix
"Church, are you here?" Twilight asked as she opened the door to the library.
"Yeah." Church called out from upstairs.
"Did you get a chance to talk to Pinkie?"
"Yes I did." Church sighed, coming out of his room. "I think she's even worse off than me..."
"Really?" Twilight asked sadly. Church nodded as he made his way down the stairs. "Is she going to be alright?"
"I'm not sure, I don't know her very well." Church said honestly. "So what did you go to talk to the others about."
"Oh, well we went to Canterlot an-" Twilight started but was interrupted by a noise coming out of her bag.
"Twilight, your bag is coughing..."
"Right." Twilight said hesitantly.
She floated the bag floated off her back and it opened when she placed it on the table. Church squinted his eyes when a large, leather-bound book fell out.
"What's with that thing?"
"I am not just a thing, thank you very much." The Necronomicon said abrasively.
"Twilight, your book is talking..."
"I am the Necronomicon, the seer of the future, the recorder of the past, and-"
"You're a book, got it." Church interrupted. "So Twilight, what's with the talking book?"
"This is a rather ancient relic that has the power to bring back the dead." Twilight answered, closing her bag and placing it on the other chair.
"You want to use a book to bring him back?" Church asked weakly. Twilight nodded, but Church simply shook his head. "Doesn't that seem kind of, oh I don't know, dangerous?"
"Come now, you're not going to judge a book by it's cover, are you?" The Necronomicon chuckled.
"Shut it."
"I don't know if you have noticed yet, but I am shut."
"Twilight, do you have any scissors? I think I want to try my hand at origami." Church growled, glaring at the book.
"Bring it on ghostie."
"Both of you calm down." Twilight said loudly, causing the two to look at her. "I thought you would have liked to bring him back..."
"But at what cost, Twilight?" Church shook his again. "I don't want him to be a mindless zombie. Well, zombie anyways."
"You seem to be misunderstand the use of my spell. I do not bring the dead back among the living as a husk of demonic power, I simply return them to their original state seconds before they died. This Caboose friend of yours will be no different than you remember him."
Church narrowed his eyes at the book, trying to tell if it's lying.
"I am not deceiving you." The Necronomicon sighed. "Just because I am the book of the dead does not mean I am evil."
"Yeah, but you're still kind of a prick."
"Being a so called prick means I'm evil?"
"No but they're pretty damn close." Church shrugged.
"Does that mean you're close to being evil too?"
"Touche." Church muttered, mind drifting to Caboose as he kept his eyes on the Necronomicon. "He'll be the same in every way?"
"Every way." The Necronomicon confirmed.
"And he won't be out for blood, crave flesh or any of that voodoo stuff?"
"Not unless he was out for blood before..."
"So how will this work?" Church asked after a few seconds.
"We go to the old castle in Everfree Forest and go into its catacombs. There is an altar with two slabs, one for the dead to lay on, and one for the living- er, reliving. Once both have taken their spots you will read a passage out of my pages and the process will begin."
"I'm not exactly the best at using magic though, so why should I read the book?"
"Well seeing as the other ponies believe you to be immortal and due to the fact that my nature would cause anypony else would either die or be driven mad."
"Oh that makes sense." Church said dismissively, before looking back to Twilight. "Wait, no it fucking doesn't, what the hell does it mean by die or driven mad?"
"There is a reason my pages have been bound shut. No mortal can gaze into me without consequence, which is why I assume they brought me to you, a pony in between the physical realms of life and death. Quite the volatile mixture."
"That's fucked up." Church said to Twilight. He turned to the book, pointing his hoof at it. "You're fucked up."
"Why I've never been so insulted in my life." The Necronomicon grunted. "Especially not by a ghost that is in serious need of a personality change."
"Listen buddy, I may be sort of like a ghost but I still know how to use fire and I will seriously fuck your day."
"You think you're the first pony that has tried to burn me? If so then you're more empty in the brain than I first thought."
"Oh, it's on paper stack." Church said, tackling the book off the table.
Twilight rolled her eyes and pulled Church off of the Necronomicon with her magic and placed him on the other side of the table. She dusted off the Necronomicon and placed him in the center of the table.
"I'll need both of you to calm down."
"He started it." The Necronomicon and Church mumbled simultaneously.
"Church, this is your call." Twilight said softly. "If you think that we shouldn't be doing it, just say so. I'm doing this for you and Pinkie, not me."
"What does this thing want in return?" Church inquired.
"I wish for nothing but the chance to be used again." The Necronomicon answered. "I have been locked away for multiple millenniums, forgotten in the sands of time. And don't get me started on my company..."
"I won't." Church nodded knowingly, having been through the same thing himself.
"That old castle you were talking about earlier, that wouldn't happen to be where the Elements of Harmony were stored?" Twilight asked.
"Oh that's right, you know of the Elements." The Necronomicon said idly.
"Yes, I am one of them."
"Oh, you were being serious..." The Necronomicon trailed off. "The Elements of Harmony are what bound me in the first place."
"And if you try anything, we won't hesitate to use them again." Twilight warned.
"I have told you multiple times that I have no such intentions. Not only have you called me evil, but now you call me a liar as well?" The Necronomicon huffed. "The nerve."
"Well Church?" Twilight asked once more.
"If he keeps to his word then I don't see the harm."
"Ah, I'm ever so happy to hear you say." The Necronomicon chuckled. "I promise to be on my best behavior."

Very nice, very excited for the rest, also... first?
Nope nope nope nope nope I will not open that book. Caboose was pissed before he died and that book pretty much said he will be when he comes back. I am abandoning that book in the middle of the ocean, tied to a bus, tied to the Titanic.
@Necronomicon My Bullshit Meter is off the charts! Quick, get Simmons so we all get bored and don't have to listen to it!
talking book? check. annoyed church? check. cabooses corpse? no check. one item until perfectly creepy chapter
Well we all know where this is going
Also, when the Necronomicon described the location needed for the ritual, I couldn't help but think about Olmec from Legends of the Hidden Temple
remember kids, what have we learned here
BOOKS ARE DANGEROUS
PLAY MORE VIDEO GAMES
I love the Necronomicon's personality. He's great.
That book has a sense of humor.
That book is very amusing.
...seconds before his death?
Books start arguments...
You can't explain that.

The bibles been doing it for years.
Some how through multiple plains of reality and such Andy still lives on to fight with everyone
All I have to say about this chapter is summed up in this picture.
... This won't end well. And if it does, It would be the first thing to ever go right for the reds and blues. The suspense... IT'S KILLING YOU!
667595
OH GOD I WAS READING THAT IN ANDY'S VOICE WITHOUT REALIZING IT.
667773 Me too O_O
The necronomicon is hilarious. I greatly enjoy his addition
this book reminds me of grimoire weiss
I still think this would be a stronger story if you leave Caboose dead, but I am intrigued by the Necronomicon.
I like this talkin' book feller.
Also I play a lot of Oblivion and Skyrim sooo.... I'm ok with necromancy.

. Shit is depressing yo.
Too be honest I think Caboose is the only one that really has to live seeing as:
1. He technically is the main character, and though he doesn't have many arcs he still is.
2. I don't want to write Pinkamena a lot, because I don't like sad Pinkie. I mean come on look at that face >
3. I still want to mix season 10 of RvB with my story, and that would be pretty damned hard with him being dead. Carolina I can probably make semi-feasible way to not have her. (And maybe even season 3 of MLP, but I'm still not sure on that)
4. Caboose is best pony.
It's gonna b O'malleyboose.
667899 That's what makes him being dead such a great story--you have to work around all of that to keep things flowing. A happy story feels nice, but stagnates.
The Necronomicon drives any who read it insane... and it's been around for millenia. Who wants to bet that Discord read the damn thing?
Love the book's personality. I see a bit of Discord, a bit of Andy, and even a bit of GLaDOS in there.
Also, call me an uncultured toaster, but I know virtually nothing about the Necronomicon (hope I spelled it right). The only thing I know is that it has something to do with Cthulu.
I need to read more.

Meh, I never went for a super sad story, just a sad arc. This is still supposed to be a comedy, so having Church+Pinkie being super depressed for the entirety of it would get pretty boring pretty fast. Sure it is great for character development and a lot of people like those kind of fics, but probably about 95% of the people reading this want comedy and not that.
Added to that is the fact that I'm terrible at writing sadfics as I am really inexperienced with conveying emotion still, while comedy is a simpler, and often has a more enjoyable feel to it as a reader and as a writer.
That is to say that someone else can't die in my story, Caboose is just the main character.
668162
That's the personality I was going for. Minus GLaDOS, though she sure is awesome.
Watch the Evil Dead series. It has a lot to do with the Necronomicon.
Caboose isn't going to come back bleeding to death, is he?
Caboose comes back as kathulu reincarnated
I would seriously love to hang out with this book.
I mean honestly, how many books are this polite and can talk?
I see no harm in this what so ev AZATHOTH FHTAGN!!
FOR HE, THE BLIND IDIOT GOD, MASTER OF ALL THE COSMOS AND CENTER OF ULTIMATE CHAOS BIDES HIS TIME.
AWAITING FOR NYARALETHOTEP TO SIGNAL THE AWAKENING OF THE OUTER GODS SO HE CAN ONCE AGAIN CLAIM THE WORLD WHICH WAS ONCE HIS SO LONG AGO!!
ever...see ? Nothing wrong with reading a forbidden book
667595 Dis is gonna get good.
You know what? If it brings back Caboose properly, do it. I refuse to let Caboose stay dead!
Seconds before Caboose died he was... uh oh.
668158 I'd take that bet, good sir.
An argument between the Necronomicon and Church, I love you.
assets.diylol.com/hfs/9e0/ba1/8b7/resized/mlp-meme-generator-that-s-fucking-amazing-c96f2b.jpg
And nothing can possibly go wrong.
That book is one of my cousins, thought he is quite younger than me.
shit gunna go down.
Necronomicon vs Church= Awesomeness
667595 lol I was thinking that while reading. Andy as a rectangle!
You have to keep the necronmicon him and church are jusdt so funny
and it'll be nice to have an andy character
I just read the last three chapters.
ih3.redbubble.net/image.11358232.3386/fc,220x200,white.jpg
Twilight WTF are you thinking?!
New chapter.
Song in case things get zombie
Now to get reading. This is going to be good.
EDIT: Time to get undead in this bitch. *Turns up Bad Voodoo
667597 he was happy when pinkie shouted to him, so, he'll be happy.
My prediction, we get Caboose back perfectly fine... and the Meta because this crap's gotta go wrong somehow when Church is involved. Possibility of happening: Lopez returns as well, but nobody still understands him.
667595
good one, bro :)
667345 The "I must crush you" one.
So far the Necronomican seems like a good guy. SEEMS.
*ahem* I have something to say necronomicon That Is All.
"Not unless he was out for blood before..."
Yeah, that's not gonna end well.
