> Equestria meets Minecraft > by Whisper_Wolf > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Chapter 1 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Equestria meets Minecraft The square sun of minecraft rises for another day on the land of minecraft to awaken the sleeping inhabitants, and destroy the hostile mobs that pose a threat to all beings. Millions of minecraftians, or Players, awake to the bright light of the sun glowing through their windows or down their temporary mining tunnels. They all wake knowing that this day would be like every other day, and they were just fine with that. “mmmm… Steak…” a young Player sleeps in her bed within her moderate sized castle in the sky. The player was WhisperWolf the leader of the high council the protectors of minecraft and its inhabitants; passive or hostile. “..’Whistle…..’ ‘BOOOOM’ IM UP!?!?! IM UP!?!?!? ” WhisperWolf awakens to the sound of an explosive going off outside her window. “WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON!?!?!?!” She runs to a window opening it to see a hole in her garden that she tends to every day. Around the hole however was a very common sight. “Sorry we were moving a chest filled with seeds to the shed mistress.” A villager answerers her from inside of the whole created apparently by the chest of seeds. “And how did a chest of seeds just explode.” Rubbing her temples at yet another display of impossibilities done by the native villagers she allowed living in her kingdom away from the hostile mobs of the universe. “It was villager 23 mistress.” “SORRY!!” A villager falling from the sky just past the castle walls. Apparently the explosion gave him enough lift to fly into the sky. “ ‘BOOM’.. IM OKAY!!” But not enough to reach the lake under her castle. “Why do I put up with you guys? Just fix the hole, and stay away from my hedges.” “Okay.” The villagers relied walking to the shed to pick up some grass blocks. Whisperwolf closes the window and heads toward her closet passing by her merrier. Whisper was about 5’ 4” lightly tanned skin, Blond hair with what looked like a dyed red circle on her hair above her forehead leading down her back , moderate body proportions and a case of ‘Heterochromia iridum’ or put simply her right eye was blue and the left was green. Of course that was all trumped at the fact she had two solid white wolf ears on top of her head with a matching white wolf tail coming from her tailbone reaching two feet base to tip. Lining her skin was red tattoos of soft gentle curves that could be seen under her nightie. “Okay. The agenda for today eat breakfast, check security system, check quarry’s, check me system, eat launch, check wall surrounding the villages, and then eat dinner and relax.” Whisperwolf spoke to her self; changing her clothes into her usual clothes. She wore medical Bandages around her chest, a pair of white hakama pants and red sash with red designs like her tattoos decorating them; and a pair of arm stocking with similar designs. She liked the feeling of freedom they gave her. “I’m thinking eggs and bacon for breakfast.” She walked to her kitchen walking past her t-construct room, thaumcraft room, and armory. As she walked the halls of her castle she reminisces of what has happened since her appearance in the world of minecraft. Most think she was created with the creation of minecraft as with her ability to control the heavenly bodies to her will. What they didn’t know was she came much later on and the ability was just as confusing to her, but she doesn’t mess with day and night often as it could cause an imbalance within the lands. The kitchen wasn’t much just a regular old kitchen. She turned on her television in her living room as she prepared to cook. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Frtax3pXPtg) “…They can make themselves into helicopters but they can’t seem to move a chest filled with seed without it exploding. Is it just me that thinks they’ve survived this long with just luck?” Even with a nice plate of bacon and eggs in front of her she couldn’t help but shake her head at the villager’s lives. “This just in breaking news… My mustache is awesome… “She just raises an eyebrow to this. “What… That wasn’t it… But it is awesome… Strange lights in the sky? How is that news…?” Whisper lowers her fork staring intently at the TV. ”The camera people tell me strange lights in the sky all over minecraft have started appearing at random no know source is yet know… My mustache is still better news.” ‘Strange lights appearing in the sky. I wonder if it’s caused by a player’ She wonders to herself; finishing her food with gusto from the taste. “Well just another day in minecraft. Time to get to work.” She spoke to her self; heading off to start her usual activities. Not knowing soon Life in Minecraft was about to change forever. Equestria “YEE-HAWWW ‘thump’” A orange earth pony with blond mane and tail wearing a Stetson hat was busy at work apple bucking away on her family’s orchard. This pony’s name was applejack one of the elements of harmony protectors of Equestria. Like every morning she wakes up early to work on her family’s farm whether it is applebucking, tending to the cows, or tending to the pigs her family was always hard workers down to the bones. Sweating the large earth pony looks to see her work she’s done over the time period she’s been awake till then. “Well will you look at that, Ah sure got a lot done. Ah wonder if Big Mac got as much done.” Smirking to herself she sets of to finish her job. As she grabs the baskets filled with the apples from the recently bucked tree she trip’s up on something sticks out from under the trees roots. “What in tarnations was that?” Applejack starts wiping herself off when she notices what she tripped over, and it was a scene she would never forget. When she had accidently hit it; it must have been with enough force to force it out of the ground. What it was however scared her to the deepest recesses of her being. “Ah have to take this to twilight and quick. Ah really don’t want this… this… thing on my farm.” She continued to stare at it for a little longer making sure to get every detail she could just in case something happened. She decided to be quick from their and trotted as fast as she could back to her family’s house. “GRANNY SMITH! AH NEED A SHEET.” Applejack screams out once she reaches inside still a little shaken from what she found. “Consarnet girl ah’m right here. You don’t need to yell.” Granny smith, in her favorite rocking chair, stated fiddling with some fabrics most likely making something for one of her grandchildren. “Sorry Granny, ah just found something and ah need to get it to twilight.” Applejack apologizes knowing she should be yelling inside especially with her little sister around somewhere. Applebloom would try her best to do something with the… ‘Thing’ to get her cutie mark. “They’re inside the cubby in the bathroom. Why do you need a sheet for something you found Sugar cube?” Applejack heads to the bathroom as quickly as possible to get a spare sheet to cover the object. “Well ah need it because… Well it’s not natural looking and it gives me the chills every time ah look at it.” GrannySmith looks at her worried. “Is it safe?” “Ah don’t know but ah’m definitely ganna find out.” Applejack leaves taking with her a sheet and her saddle bags with her; leaving behind Granysmith with a worried look in her face. As applejack gets close to the object she suddenly gets the chills again from the object. She wraps the object up in the sheet and gently places the ‘Thing’ in her saddle bag. She stands up and quickly trotting for ponyville in the hopes of find out just what it was she was carrying. “Let’s get you to Twilight.” Not noticing a feint glow coming from the sheet wrapped object. “AHRG I’M SO BOREDDDD!!” “Rainbow dash, dear, please stop that. We are trying to drink are tea.” A white, with purple mane and tail, unicorn by the name of Rarity speaks to Rainbow Dash a cyan blue furred and rainbow colored mane and tail Pegasus. She knows however it will never get into rainbow dash’s head. “But I’m so bored…” Rainbow dash wines out as she lies across the top of one of many book selves inside the local library. The other occupant’s roles their eyes, except one that was too busy stuffing her mouth full of pastries. “Coweon dawshie haw swome pwawries with we.” The Pink earth pony with Pink main and tail currently stuffing her mouth with more pastries tried to get Rainbow Dash to join them. “Pinkie, please stop talking with your mouth full.” A purple Alicorn spoke enjoying her tea and some of the cookies pinkie brought from her home. Pinkie looks up at her close friend and swallows the pastries. “Sorry Twilight.” Pinkie apologizes to twilight sparkle; a new Princess of Equestria. “Its fine I know you didn’t do it on purpose.” Twilight smiled at pinkie who just smiled even larger. As this goes on a yellow Pegasus with pink main and tail is gently sipping away at her tea. “How about you Fluttershy, are you enjoying this dear.” Rarity asks fluttershy trying to be as gentle as possible so as not to startle her from her concentration to her tea. “Oh.. um.. It’s… good. The pastries also go very well with the tea choice.” Fluttershy replies hiding slightly behind her mane. “I’m glad you’re enjoying in fluttershy.” Twilight smiles at fluttershy glad one of her friends are complimenting her choices in tea. She spent the last couple of days reading through tea based books to find the perfect teas for her tea party. “SSSOOOOO BBBOOOAAARRRDDDD!!!” “We can hear you dear. No need to yell.” Rarity’s eye started to twitch at Rainbow Dash’s childlike behavior. “We haven’t had a major adventure in so long. Has one of the princesses sent mail saying we need to do something. Like maybe help the griffons against giant balloon monster.” “’GASP’… OH NO THE BALLON MONSTERS ARE BACK!!!” Pinkie jumps into the air and stay there frozen in the air at the statement Rainbow Dash stated. “Pinkie there is no balloon monsters trying to take over anything… Wait… Back? You’ve seen balloon monsters before?” Rarity stairs at pinkie in wonderment. “Well of course silly where did you think balloons come from.” Fluttershy shrink into herself at the thought of living balloons being murdered and made into props. “’sigh’ No Rainbow Dash there is no adventure for today. Just relax for a day and join us.” Twilight tries to get into Rainbow Dash’s head and calm her down. “But it’s so boring and where is Applejack anyway if I have to suffer through this so should she.” “Applejack has apple bucking to do on her family’s farm. So come down and have tea with us, and relax for the day. We have been going on adventures almost every day, and today is a perfect day to relax. Besides it’s not like an adventure will just appear out of no…” “ ‘SLAM’ TWILIGHT EMERGENCY!!!” “where… ‘Slap’” Twilight slaps her muzzle at Applejack timely entrance. “SWEET!! What is it?” Rainbow dashes towards Applejack; who was bringing a sheet wrapped object out of her bag. Applejack places the object onto the table and slowly unwrap it. “‘GASP’ ” The main six ponies surround the strange object Applejack brought in. “What is that?” Rarity seems to stare at the object in a chilled daze feeling uneasy around it. “Whoa that is kind of creepy don’t you think Flutters… Flutters?” Rainbow Dash looks behind her to see flutter shy shaking behind her in fear. Applejack looks at twilight hopping she might have a clue. “Well sugercube? Any clue?” All ponies stare intently at the object in front of them. The object seemed to be a cube half the size of ponies hooves covered in strange red lettering. However the most noticeable thing about the cube was it seemed to pull all light around into itself. “I’m… not sure. I’ve never seen anything like this before.” “What should we do with it dear?” Twilight looks up from the cube looking at her friends scared looks. “Nothing for now. Nobody is to touch it. NO ONE.” “Dang this looks good.” A young male voice is heard by the ponies in the library. As they turn around they notice two things. One a young baby dragon is standing next to rarity about to eat something. Two… Well… said dragon was about to bite into the Black cube. “NOOOOOO!!!! SPIKE DON’T!” The girls try to stop him but it was too late spike the dragon had tried to take a bite. No one moved from their spot afraid to what would happen. Suddenly a black aura spreads out of the cube quickly covering everything. The baby dragon and girls tried to scream their hardest best nothing seemed to change as the aura started spreading farther. They tried to keep their heads above the black aura however it was futile as it slowly consumed them. In a last ditch effort Twilight tried a teleporting spell, but the aura from the cube and Twilights magical aura seemed to clash and change the aura into a night like sky slowly covering them. As they disappeared what they didn’t know was that the aura was slowly starting to spread through ponyville.
