Chapter c52: Starstruck

A/N

Yes you are reading that right, this chapter and some others after this chapter are going to crossovers, hence the ‘C’ in front of the chapter numbering.

Alright enough explaining, don’t want to ruin the story, now do I? But before I start the story let me say this, thank you all my readers for reading this story and leaving wonderful (and sometimes criticize filled ones) reviews.

As well, I realized that I made a slight mistake when I named Arcana’s brother Arcane, for I already have plans for that name, so I then decided to change his name to Magi. Now I hope that you’ll leave your comments behind. Thank you.

Star's POV

Arcana and I have spent all day yesterday, with our families, learning what else that had happened to them. You can say that yesterday went so well without a hitch, even the universe decided to hold back on the trolling, but our parents had to leave and go home after all they do have lives of their own.

I positioned my goggles on my forehead as I started to make my way downstairs after another night of sleeping on the uncomfortable cot, we really need to get proper beds to sleep on, I thought to myself as I felt pop come from my back as soon as I stepped into the living room, where I then saw Arcana leaving the kitchen all awake and alert, with a saddlebag on.

“Good morning Arcana,” I greeted as I held back a yawn, “what are you going to do right now, are you going somewhere?” I asked as I saw her made her way to the door.

“I am going to go out and get some furniture and maybe some food,” Arcana answered me, “because this is getting ridicules without any food or proper furniture,” she explained, “so see ya later, oh and here is a bag of bits for ya, in case you get hungry,” she added as she levitated a small bag towards me.

I took the bag just as Arcana left the house with a slam of the front door, need to fix that, don’t want to give the wrong idea to some ponies, I then thought of what I have planned, but then I realized that I have nothing planned for today, “well, what can I do today then?” I asked myself as I tap my chin with my left hoof, trying to think of something and then my gaze shift towards the silvery marking of my element and then my thoughts drifted towards Aceiro element and how he was encased in white armor that was generated from his element, what was up with that? Hum I wonder if I can do that as well.

I opened my eyes, but instead of the living room, I am surrounded by silvery wisps of the space fields on a dark grey surrounding us. I turn my concentration away from the space fields and towards my Element and instantly the space fields around me started to come in closer and started to drift and sway around it. Ok that was odd, but never mind that now, I think something is going to happen.

I concentrated once more on the space fields that are now circling around my Element to see what they are doing, but as soon as my mind touched the wisps surrounding my Element, they all emerged into one giant silvery wisp. The oversize wisp started to wander around me, somehow alluring to me and every time it drew close to me, I would hear faint whispers of vocalizations coming from it. For some reason I felt complied to grab it, so when I made a move to grasp it, it immediately drifted out of my reach.

“I’m gonna get ya,” I said as I made another to get, “I’m gonna get ya,” but then the wisp drifted out of my reach once again. I waited, timing when the wisp will drift in closer to me, and then the wisp drifted in closer and quickly lashed out and grabbing it, “gotcha,” I proclaimed as I finally had gotten hold of the illusive anomaly.

But as soon as I made contact with it, the whispering from it stopped all of a sudden and then the ground underneath me started to shine. I looked down and saw that the ground is cracking, with light shining through the cracks, like I am on fragile glass and I about to break through it any second now, I looked back the wisp in my clutches, oh crap, it’s this thing, I thought when I realized it was the thing I am holding. I tried to let it go, but found that I couldn’t move my arms at all.

With the sound of glass shattering, the ground beneath me had finally broken and I started to fall into whatever what was just created. As soon as I passed the dark gray floor and into a tunnel of swirling white light, the wisp in my hooves started to move and wiggle and then it shot off downward into the tunnel, pulling me along with it.

“AHHHHH,” I yelled as the sense of falling hit me like a wave of water. I glanced around inside the tunnel and saw that I am appeared to be falling through space, for past the swirling light of the tunnel I saw stars glistening in the black background, “what’s going on here, where am I, where am I going?” I panicky questioned to nopony in particular, I looked ahead and then saw that I am approaching a barrier and it showed no signs of any opening, with the wisp in my grasp pulling me towards it, “oh crap this is going to hurt,” I braced for impact I am about to receive from the barrier. When the wisp and I were about to hit the barrier, all of a sudden the wisp phased right through it, while I belly flopped right into the barrier.

I lay on the barrier in pain and confused at what just happened to me, “what the hay just happened?” I tried to push myself up, but found that I am still sore from the impact with the barrier. I slowly picked myself up, but then I heard a sound of breaking ice engendered underneath me, I quickly looked down and saw that the barrier beneath me is starting to crack and spread like it did before when I entered the tunnel.

I shifted my weight a bit into one of my hooves and the cracking formed faster in the barrier causing me to immediately stop moving out of fear and the cracking to stop. After a few moments of not moving, I carefully and slowly lifted my hoof up and repeated the process as I took a step forward and I saw that the cracks didn’t form anymore bigger, “ok nice and easy,” I instructed myself as I slowly started to move, “don’t want any more weird things to happened, but at least it couldn’t get any worse,” just when I said that last phrase, I hear a whistling sound of something falling above me.

I looked up and saw the small bag of bits that Arcana had given me this morning is coming right at me and my predicament, “oh crap, sigh, why me?” I asked in resignation as my eyes follow the bag of bits falling in front of me and then hitting the barrier. When the bag of bits hit the barrier, the results were immediate, for the barrier completely shattered and I fell right through just as I closed my eyes, anticipating for whatever happens next.

I felt myself starting to fall again and was about to yell out, but then I felt my face make contact with something, soon followed by the rest of my body hitting something hard. I pulled my face off of whatever I hit and opened my eyes and examine what I made contact with and was surprised to see that it was a hardwood floor, what the…? I looked up and around and saw that I am in my living room again, but this time filled with furniture now.

Arcana must have finished shopping for furniture, but can’t say that I like her taste in furniture though, but seriously what just happened back there. I picked myself up with a groan and saw the bag of bits that caused me this much pain, I picked up the bag of bits and tucked it under one of my wings with a bit of frustration. I looked around the living room and then I hear clanking of pots and pans coming from the kitchen, Arcana must have gotten some food as well.

I made my way into the kitchen feeling a bit hungry, but as soon as I turn around the corner and there I saw a familiar pony at the stove cooking something in a pot, but it wasn’t Arcana who was at the stove it was Lyra. “Lyra?” I spook out loud startling the mint pony at the pot, she then looked at me, “what are you doing in my house, where’s Arcana?”

At first her expression was one of surprise and then it quickly turned into fear, and then she started to scream, “Ahhh, a burglar, help I am being robbed,” Lyra scream at me as she picked up a knife off a cutting board with her magic and throw it at me. Luckily she has a bad aim, for the knife embedded itself into the doorframe next to me, oh shit am getting out here. I turn and ran towards the door, with Lyra now throwing pans, ladles and other things her within her reach. I burst out of the door and quickly slammed it shut and a blade of a chopping knife appeared in the door seconds later.

“What’s going on here?” I yelled out loud as pick myself up from the ground and dusted myself off. “Lyra is in my house, recognize me, and she started to throw knives at me,” I looked around and saw that ponies had gathered around me from my outburst, “sorry about that everypony,” I apologized to them, “just a slight misunderstanding going on here,” I explained, and then I hear them started to whisper to each other.

“Who is he?”

“Where did he come from?”

“I don’t know him, do?”

“Why is there a knife sticking out of the door there?”

When I heard all of them saying that they do not know who I am, I started to get confused and a little concerned, “come on everypony, it’s me Star Streak, don’t you know me?” I asked them as I took a few steps towards them. They all took a few steps back worriedly as if I was some kind of crazy pony, “Ditzy…” I called out to the familiar unfocused eyed pegasus, “… don’t you remember me and Arcana? We meet at a party, heck I even bumped into you one day, when I was in a hurry and then helped you gather up the mail that was dropped,” this caused the mentioned pony and others to back up in fright.

“I’m sorry, but I don’t know you or this “Arcana” you’re talking about,” Ditzy said a bit frightened. When I saw all of their faces I started to doubt my current setting, so I quickly apologized and took off running towards a side street. When I passed the corner in immediately pressed myself against the wall, I looked back around the corner and saw the crowd that is slowly dispersing, “what’s going on here?” I asked myself as I pulled myself away from the corner, “why isn’t everypony recognizing me?” and then my stomach let a pang of pain telling me that I didn’t get anything to eat since I woke up.

“Ok fine, let’s go to Sugarcube Corner, can’t think straight anyway when you are running on empty,” I said to my stomach as I made sure that the bag of bits were still secured under my wing, “wait a minute, why am I even talking to my stomach?” I questioned as I started to make my way towards Sugarcube Corner. After a few minutes of walking I was with eyesight Sugarcube Corner and then something drawn to me, “wait a minute, all of this must be a joke of Pinkie’s, yeah that is what it is, a joke.”

I hurried towards the sweet shop so I can congratulate Pinkie for this odd yet successful prank and get something to eat. I entered the shop and made my way towards the counter, feeling relieved that this was all just a prank, and made my way to the counter where I say Mrs. Cake there, “welcome to Sugarcube Corner…” Mrs. Cake traditional greeted me, “… what can I get you today, dearly?”

“Hello Mrs. Cake,” I greeted back to her, “I would like the usual please,” I said as I took the bag of bits from under my wing and as I was getting out some bits so I can pay for the cinnamon roll, “oh and by the way where’s Pinkie?” I asked as I put the money on the counter and looked back at Mrs. Cake.

Mrs. Cake’s expression was that of confusion when I looked at her, “excuse me, but I don’t know what is the usual for you, in fact are you new here in town?”

“Ha ha, good one Mrs. Cake,” I said to her ignoring the unsure looks I was getting from her, “did Pinkie put you up to this? Speaking of Pinkie where is she? I want to congratulate her for that successful prank she did on me.”
“But really I don’t know you,” Mrs. Cake announces, “this is the first time I have seen and meet you.”

“Are you serious?” I asked her and she nodded in answer, “but I am your number one customer though,” I argued.
“What’s going here Mrs. Cake?” I hear a familiar perky voice besides me, I look to my left and saw Pinkie standing there and she looked at me, “hiya, I’m Pinkie Pie, but by the sound of things I say that you know me already, so that will make thing so much smoothly, gasp, oh wait that’s right you’re new here, then I should throw you a ‘welcome to Ponyville party,” she happily said.

“But Pinkie, you should know me, and you already throw me and Arcana a welcome to Ponyville party already,” I explained to her, “Pinkie this prank is getting old, you can drop it now,” I said to her with my voice raising.
“Prank, what prank?” Pinkie said confused, “and I just meet you, so I couldn’t have arrange a party for you already, which I would’ve remembered doing,” she stated.

I hear somepony speaking up, but I didn’t hear what was said as I continue talking, “what the hay is going here?” I asked getting angry and frustrated, but before I can say anymore a high-pitch whistle piece the air. I quickly turned around and saw a dark brown Earth pony with a Gordon Freeman goatee wearing a set of black glasses and when I saw this I spoke what ran through my head, “Sweet Celestia, Morgan Freeman is on Equestria!"

The Morgan Freeman goatee wearing pony cleared his throat as if he is a little self-consciously about something, “that’s a new one,” I heard him muttered dryly. Apparently taking advantage of my confusion, the pony started to look up and down at me, looking as if he is giving me a estimation, who the hay is this guy? I thought to myself a bit confused about the situation.

And then he looked like he realized something and was about to say something as well, but I spoke up before he can speak, “who are you?” I asked the strange pony in front of me.

“Who am I?” he responded, “The better question is how the hellion you know about Morgan Freeman?!”

I blinked in surprise and backed away from him slightly, accidently revealing my Element marking to him where I saw his gaze turn towards it and then he started to get a pondering look on his face.

After a few seconds of silence from him, with Pinkie and other ponies going back to their own businesses, “hey, kid, come on now,” he said reassuringly. He then reached a hoof towards me, and added, “Why don’t you just come with me, and we can get things sorted out, alright?”

“Who are you, what have you done to my friends, where’s Arcana?” I panicky started to question him, particularly shouting the last question at him, as I got into a preparing stance.
When the mystery pony saw me go into the stance he quickly said, “Whoa buddy, I am not here to start something… I am just trying to help here.”

“Then tell me what happened here, what did you do to my friends, where’s Arcana?”

“Let’s just go somewhere that is more private first,” he answered as he took a step towards me, “and I will explain everything… especially to this, ‘Arcana’, you mentioned,” when he said that, I started worry about Arcana safety. I rushed at him, completely taking him by surprise as I tackled him, and concentrated n the imagine of the fields outside of town, and then me and the mystery pony disappeared in a flash and reappeared in field that I pictured in my mind.

When we appeared in the field, I quickly kick him off of me, causing him to land a few feet away, but then I was hit with immense fatigue, causing me to fall to the ground, whoa, that wasn’t happened to me in such a long time, I thought as I picked myself off the ground. I looked towards I dropped the inscrutability pony at, and saw him already standing up and he said in a surprised tone, “whoa.”

“Now tell me… where… Arcana is! what… happened to my friends?” I asked him again.
“Calm down-,“ he started but I interrupted him, “NO! I won’t calm down until you tell me what happened,” and then I flared my wings and took off into the air and then flew towards him and as I taking a swung at him, but he easily dodged my attack, I then added as I shouted out loud, “Now tell me where Arcana is.”
