The soul and its old magic (dead story?)

by Theboxcatgamr

In my element

I don't remember much of what happened after I broke time
It's ok now I think but I just don't feel well knowing that all I have to do is raise my hand.
I need to figure this out before I seriously hurt someone.
The last thing twilight said before I left is just haunting
What are you?
That question is getting too hard to answer
After about two minutes of blindly running I really don't know where I am
Lots of trees. Probably a forest of some sort
For once I detest the horrible screaming of silence
I'm not even sure how to control my powers
I heard a twig snap and I turned around
I see a pair of eyes looking at me
The look in those eyes were just purely savage
Whatever it was had clearly expected something different but it was clear that whatever it was it was desperate
I guess I fit the description of injuried and tired as the smell of my blood was just...rancid. Ew
I wasn't about to just take shit after what I just did

"Piss off" I said with feeling

Good choice of words as it left leaving a short growl
I continued towards a clearing in the forest
It was a path that looked well worn only showing hints of a trail

"Fuck it. Fuck it all" I said following the trail

The trees started getting more... Damaged as I went
If I had any fucks to give I would even go as far to say they were looking extra spooky
About 20 minutes later I was getting kind of hungry again and this time I have to get it my self
Most of the plant life was trees and bushes so I started looking for fruit

"Jackpot!" I exclaimed with joy
Found some berry bush with blue berrys
I stuffed my face full of the berrys and they tasted pretty good
I pocketed extras for later also hoping they wouldn't go bad quickly
After another few minutes of walking I saw the creature from before again
It looked like a wolf that was covered in wood. It was scrawny and was probably looking for food
My how the tables have turned.
I stepped on a twig and initiated what was the exact encounter we had the first time
Only difference was this time we swapped places
It was whimpering and was clearly going to starve
I saw four options:

One: I simply leave and risk a ambushe later
Two: I confront the wolf and risk a fight
Three: I attack first and go for broke
Four: I leave the wolf food and while it's distracted I walk away

Four sounded better and chances were that the berrys would spoil soon
I stepped into the vision of the wolf and it was clearly not happy
I reached into my pocket and dropped a pile of berrys
I backed away slowly as to let it think
I started walking away to the sound of one very happy wolf
I finally got to a point of interest. A bridge that has seen some better days
I proceeded with caution
I was about halfway across the bridge when I heard a noise
A large snap echoed through the air as I slowly turned around...
It was the wolf from earlier with its wooden coat party stained blue.
Good news was I made a wolf friend. Bad news was the bridge was not that supportive of my new friend
The boards under the wolf gave way. Taking the wolf with it.
I managed to grab the paw of the wolf and it just freaked out
I was pulling as hard as I could when the bridge threatened to give way
I got an idea. I let go and raised my hand
Time stopped and now I could work my magic
I lifted the wolf up and over to the other side of the bridge
I restarted time after crossing the bridge myself
The wolf looked around with the curiosity of a kitten
The gauntlet for some reason wasn't glowing like it did the first time
It was more on the level of a glow stick
The wolf was just bounding around with energy
Despite everything it was waging its tail and really just having a grand time
I gave him a boop on the nose and as I looked into those eyes I knew I wanted to keep him
Ok and now the hard part. An actually good name
"Allen?"
The wolf looked at me confused
"Doc?"
The wolf barked and I guess that meant yes?
"Ok doc. If you like it, I'm good with it."
The trail was getting bigger almost like it was foreshadowing
Doc stopped and started whimpering
"What's wrong buddy?" I asked with concern
It was almost like he couldn't move forward
I tried to comfort the wolf
Petting and attempting to groom its wood coat
My gauntlet was getting brighter and started glowing brighter
I gave doc a boop on the nose and then he started glowing
He took a few steps forward almost as if he was testing something
His peppy aditude returned and we went on with doc glowing a bit
The path lead to what looked like the remains of a castle
The gauntlet was getting almost blindingly bright
Doc was walking cautiously
After ten minutes of exploration doc stopped
I had not noticed this as I was practically blind thanks to my gauntlet
Then it all stopped
I finally could get my surroundings
It was a big room and way on the other side was six large stones and a throne
As I walked towards the stones my hand felt weird
My gauntlet looked like a rave swapping colours
Blue...green...violet...red...yellow...light blue...
The rate of change in the gauntlet was ramping up as I got close to the stones
By the time I was at the circle of stones the gauntlet was going so fast that the colours started to blend
I stepped in the middle of the stones and the gauntlet gave a bright flash of white
It was like a ripple of colours as the stones started glowing
The violet one was glowing surprising more then the rest
I heard a gasp and turned around
Twilight was right behind me with the others following

"The elements!" Was all twilight could say before the violet stone floated to her
One by one the elements approached. Surprisingly out of order
Magic...kindness...loyalty...laughter...generosity...honesty...doc?
Doc began flying towards me glowing white
He was set down gently beside me

"Doc?!"

Apple jack spoke up
"What's a timberwolf doing here?"
Pinkie collapsed with rainbow dash following
Apple jack and rarity were next

"What's going on?!" Twilight spoke

Her and flutershy collapsed

Doc and I collapsed

So... What now?
