//------------------------------// // Chapter 11 // Story: My Little Pony - Equestria Boy // by OliverSparkle //------------------------------// It was now midnight in Ponyville, and everypony was walking or flying back to their houses to get some shut eye, Twilight along with Spike, Sunset, Starlight & Oliver were walking back to Twilight’s castle. “I have to say, that was the best night ever!” Cheered Spike happily. “You said it, Spike. Even with that cool song Oliver sung on stage,” said Sunset making Oliver blush. Oliver just giggled before saying, “Thanks, Sunset.” They finally made it back to Twilight’s castle, just as Twilight opened the doors with her magic and they all went inside, they all let out a big yawn. “Well I guess we should all go to bed now,” Starlight said letting out another yawn. “I agree,” Said a tired Twilight, “Goodnight Starlight, Sunset, Spike and Oliver.” “Goodnight Twilight,” Starlight, Sunset and Spike said in unison. “Goodnight Aunt Twilight,” Said Oliver. After saying goodnight to each other, they all went to their bedrooms, brushed their teeth, went straight to bed and fell asleep under Luna’s full moon. Meanwhile outside the castle just round the back, Neighsay and the married Warlocks were sneaking towards the castle. “Alright you two, remember the plan?” Neighsay asked. The two nodded as it made Neighsay grew an evil grin on his face. “Good.” He magically made a ladder so the two climb onto the outside castle cliff, sneak into the castle, find Oliver and kidnap him. “Alright,” began Neighsay, “I’ll stay here and keep an eye out. The boy’s bedroom should be four doors down the hall on the right.” The two nodded as they began to climb the ladder one by one to kidnap the alicorn that escaped them a long time ago. Meanwhile, in the streets of Ponyville, John Constantine was walking towards Twilight’s castle with his hands in his trouser pockets. “Just one quick check on the lad,” he said to himself, “It wouldn’t hurt a bit to see how he’s doing, Cadence did ask me to check on him anyway.” As John continue to walk towards the castle, he then stopped and had a shock look on his face as he saw what was going on at the castle. He saw Neighsay near a ladder, looking around making sure nopony sees what he’s doing. When he saw John, he grew a shock and worried look on his face as he has been spotted by a creature he’d never seen before. “Uh-oh.” John then ran towards the castle as Neighsay quickly shouted quietly to the married couple, “You two better hurry up! We’ve been spotted!” John ran towards the castle doors as he magically opened up a portal through the castle so he can go through the doors without knocking or opening them himself as it then closed after he went through it. Mr and Mrs Warlock had Oliver in their shack as he was kicking inside trying to get out while the two walked their way out of his room before John saw them after running towards the hall Oliver’s room was in. “Oliver!” He shouted as it made the married couple look at him as they knew they were spotted. The two then made a ran for it as Constantine ran after them, and the sound of the running footsteps was loud that it woke Twilight up as she was walking towards the hall way rubbing her left eye and then letting out a yawn. “What’s going on in here?” After rubbing her eye, she saw Oliver’s bedroom door was open as she then saw Constantine chasing two ponies with a shack. Twilight let out a gasp of shock before saying, “Oliver!” She starts running towards the two ponies to save her nephew. “Stop! Foalnappers!” The two ponies ran as fast as they can with the shack on Mr Warlock’s back as they head towards the outside cliff of the castle. They turned their heads round while still running as they saw that Twilight and Constantine were catching up to them. The two reached to the castle cliff in time as they jumped off and landed safely on the ground where Neighsay was waiting for them. But they weren’t safe for long as Twilight and Constantine jumped off and landed safely on the ground as they ran up to try to catch the married ponies, but they jumped before they could catch them and went straight into the portal that Neighsay opened up in time for their escape. Twilight and Constantine landed on the ground on their fronts with a bump as they didn’t caught the two in time. They let out a gasp as they saw they went through the portal, then they glared angrily at Neighsay. “What did you do with my nephew?” Asked Twilight angrily. Neighsay just grinned evilly at Twilight before saying, “Sorry it had to be this. Princess.” Neighsay then jumped into the portal as it then closed before Twilight and Constantine could catch up with him. Both John and Twilight had a shock and worried looks on their faces after what had happened. “Oh no,” Constantine said. “Cadence and Shining ain’t gonna be happy about this,” Said Twilight now feeling more worried on what her brother and sister in law is gonna say about this. The next morning, Twilight was in the cutie map room with Spike, Sunset, Starlight, the mane five, Shining, Cadence, Flurry Heart, Constantine, Vincent and the royal sisters explaining what has happened last night. Flurry Heart was whimpering in Cadence’s right hoof as she hugged her in comfort as she knew she wanted to see her brother again. Shining, on the other hoof, was angry after hearing what Twilight had said, not at Twilight but at Neighsay and the two ponies she also mentioned. “I tried my best to save him, Shiny. They got away before we could get to them,” Said Twilight as she thought her brother was angry at her for letting Oliver get kidnapped. But, truth to be told, he hugged her before saying, “It’s not your fault, Twily. You tried your hardest.” He then stopped hugged her. “But I am angry at Neighsay for what he did. And when I get my hooves on him, he’ll be sorry for kidnapping our son and what he and those orphanage ponies will do to him.” “Wait,” began Rainbow Dash, “Orphanage ponies?” “You mean to say that those two other ponies Twilight described were the orphanage ponies Oliver was talking about yesterday?!” Shouted Applejack in shock. Constantine answered Applejack before anypony else could, “Afraid so, Applejack. We still remember who they were before they were sent to prison, and before trying to take Oliver away when he was young.” “Un-believable,” Said Sunset angrily. “But why did Neighsay break those two out of prison and kidnap Oliver?” Asked Spike. “Do you think this has something to do with reopening the school of Friendship and having other creatures into the school?” “I don’t know,” answered Twilight, “But we can figure that out later, right now we need to save Oliver and make sure those orphanage ponies get sent back to prison.” “But the EEA place is over-protective,” Rarity said, “It’ll be hard for us to find it, even by teleport. It’ll take days or hours to find it.” “That may be true,” Said Constantine, “The EEA place you speak of might be able to keep you lot, Celestia and other royal creatures away from getting in.” He grew a grin on his face. “But not from me.” Constantine placed his hands together as he closed his eyes and said some magic words in a different language as golden grasp appeared around his hands. Once he had finish saying the magic words and open his hands out, a ball of golden grasp shot out from his right hand and opened a portal, near the doors, to the inside of the EEA place. The girls, Spike, Shining, Cadence, Flurry Heart and the royal sisters were now in shock as they can’t believe what they just saw by Constantine. “That was amazing,” Starlight said, “I’m actually quite jealous.” Constantine smiled at what Starlight just said. “Come on,” Said Twilight, “There’s no time to lose, Oliver needs our help.” “We’ll stay here with Flurry Heart and make sure she stays safe,” Shining said. “I’ll stay here as well, just to be sure they don’t return and do something to the rest of the family,” Said Vincent. The girls, Spike, the royal sisters and Constantine nodded in understood, knowing that this mission would be too risky for Flurry Heart to handle. “Let’s go,” Constantine said as they all went through the portal to rescue Oliver. Meanwhile, in the EEA place, Oliver was trying to break the cell open by charging towards it and banging it with his right elbow hoof while Neighsay and the married ponies were outside the cell watching him with grins on their faces. “Just let me out of this cell this instant!” He shouted at them as he had enough of this, “You know exactly what’s coming to you!” “Indeed I do,” Said Neighsay evilly, “Once Twilight has thought it over, she’ll have to shut down her school of Friendship for me to set you free.” Oliver was in shock mode after hearing what Neighsay just said, then he grew an angry look on his face before saying, “That’s it? That’s why you kidnapped me? TO FORCE MY AUNT TO SHUT DOWN HER SCHOOL THAT I WAS NEVER TOLD ABOUT?! I HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS!!” “Oh it does actually,” Mr Warlock said as he then stuck his head through the bars of the cell. “You see, we helped him kidnap you cause we made a deal with him. If Twilight doesn’t shut down her school by the time she had thought about it, then me and my wife can take you away and give you all the punishments we have in mind, for sending us in prison for all these years.” “You’ve treated me like trash before I ran away!” “We gave you some food to eat though,” Mrs Warlock said. “That wasn’t even treating me well! And besides you gave me food that was out of date and even tiny pieces of food that even filled me up a bit! And all I wanted was to have a family!” “Well, now you have, and look at what has happened to us,” Mrs Warlock said crossly. After hearing everything, Neighsay felt a knock in his head, he feels like he’s doing the wrong thing and breaking out two ponies that were abusing a child years ago was a bad idea. He now feels terrible and knew he should never have done this in the first place. “What have I done?” He thought to himself, “I’ve broken two ponies out of prison that were nothing but child abusers all for what, to shut down a school cause Twilight letted other creatures attend to it.” His thoughts were then stopped by Oliver’s voice. “At least Cadence treats children well and kindly. Unlike YOU TWO!” Mr Warlock grew very angry and punched Oliver really hard, he flew backwards to the bed and landed on the floor with his nose now bleeding. Neighsay saw and heard enough, he knows he had to make this right and turn over a new leaf. “Alright, that’s enough now,” he said to the married ponies, “Let’s just go to our rooms and see which choose Twilight will make tomorrow, then you can give him the punishments you want if she said no.” The two ponies nodded as they went to the door that was on the right as Neighsay followed them. While walking, Neighsay turned his head round to see the cell that Oliver was in and then said in his head, “I’ll make this right. No more saying that other creatures in Equestria are dangerous and should never attend to any schools. Time to fix my mistake.” It was now nighttime in Equestria and at the EEA place. Oliver was lying on his prison cell bed, not asleep, but sad as he misses his family, his new aunt, his new friends and Constantine. He wished he’d never gotten into this mess with Neighsay and the two orphanage abusers. He let out a few tears come out of his eyes as they landed on the floor making a tiny little poodle of tears. He then heard the cell doors opening as he turned his head to the right to see what was going on. “What are you doing?” He asked to the pony who opened the cell. The pony walked out of the darkness to reveal it was Neighsay who opened the cell. “Getting you out.”
