I smirked as I held my hand out, and a nearby megalith was engulfed in a blue aura. I pulled back my arm as I curled my hand into a fist, and it came closer at a steady pace. I knew that I could do it without gestures, but this was a good way to practice my magic and get a good understanding of it. I looked at the cliff that I was using as target practice, and made an impressive impression of a pitcher, 'pitching' the megalith and throwing it right at the cliff, where it landed, piercing itself onto the cliff. There were exactly a hundred and eighty-two others where that came, some shattered, some went through the sides of the floor of the valley I was practicing in, and others just fell onto the ground, and those that did were just my first tries on testing my new power.
I feel like I'm accomplishing something, but at the same time, I'm just feeling plain stupid. Why? Is it that I was interfering with the history of Equestria and how it should be? Maybe part of my imagination getting the best of me. Telekinesis was not the only thing I practiced. I also honed in on my bone attacks, and I was not just limited to throwing them, I was also capable of causing a bone to emerge from the earth to impale my enemy, as you may have heard, but I can also make them appear out of nowhere and shoot them at my enemies. I knew very well that Bowser was able to teleport, but many of the more complex spells would be saved for later, as well as telekinesis without moving my hand. Well, my guess is that it may take years to accomplish it, but being undead and all, it makes me sad knowing that I can't eat, I would surely miss all the fine tastes of all the food I once savored and love. I cannot sleep, either, being in this form, and it was night now, the moon was high when I threw that last megalith. I never felt anything on my feet, is that what nothing feels like? But this is an unfamiliar land, and I gotta stay strong. I looked to my left and then to my right, I sighed, and went on my way through the valley, leaving a bunch of thrown megaliths, cracked cliffs, and shattered rocks in my wake as I went on my trek to the other side of the valley to God knows where I'll wind up. "Why did I buy that book?" I said as I went on my way.
Some time in the future, in the same valley, an alicorn of purple hue rode on a train. Twilight and Spike were idily sitting in the train tracks, with the former reading a book and the latter drinking his drink. "Spike, it's been a while since it was just you and I, huh?" the purple alicorn said to her draconic sibling.
"I agree, Twilight. Today is our day. No quests for friendship, no reports to deliver, no snotty aristocrats, we deserve a good rest after the Cozy Glow incident." Spike replied. Twilight never thought that a mere filly could be a serious threat to the magic of Equestria, but live and learn. The School had to be temporarily closed for the week, and not because of anything wrong, Cozy attacked two months ago. It was Fall break, and everyone worked so hard. Twilight held onto the hope that nothing could go wrong as she continued on her book. This particular train was going through the Smokey Mountains and the Unicorn Range up to the Crystal Empire, both of which were very beautiful during fall. Twilight also came to see Flurry Heart and babysit her like her mother did with Twilight herself. Before you can say bananas, the voice of the conductor spoke.
"Alright, everybody." Twilight's ears perked at the last word. "Today, we are entering the Brakebone Mountains. Nopony knows why megaliths penetrate the cliffside, nor do we know about the bones sticking out of the ground, but traces of magic had showed somebody was there to do it." the conductor said, causing the Princess of Friendship to jolt up from her reading state in shock. They were supposed to be the Smokey Mountains! She looked out her window to see the cliffs penetrated by giant stones, and what looked like bones sticking out from the ground and cliffs, some of which had moss growing on them, some were broken and half lying on the ground. "Don't worry, it's harmless, no one who had touched these millenia-old bones had died even so much as a day afterwards, but please do not play with the bones, they might fall on you." Just then, one of the megaliths fell onto the soil, creating a hole large enough for it to fit.
"Spike! Something weird is going on. I am getting a bit worried here!" Twilight said as she nudged Spike with a wing, and the little dragon looked out to see the mountains, many of which were covered with bones and misplaced megaliths.
"Um, Twilight? What's worrying you?" Spike asked. "We're going to the Crystal Empire to visit Cadence, Shining, and Flurry for the next day or so." He knew his sister was always a bit worried about something from time to time.
"That's not it, Spike. Look out the window!" Twilight said as she and Spike looked at the megaliths that were on the cliffside and the bones penetrating the area. "See, this is not normal! Why are there giant stones lodged into the cliffs and bones laying every which way." Twilight asked as Spike looked out the window. Spike scratched his head.
"You're right about a few things. There's something fishy going on here." her draconic companion said as he put his hands on the glass of the window. "Even I do not know what is going on with the valley."
"I know, right? I mean, there are bones sticking out every which way and stones that were lodged onto the cliff, almost as if they were being thrown by something." Twilight said before looking at Spike. "Spike, the Smokey Mountains have changed into this. The conductor said something about magic, so I was thinking that it had to do with somepony, may not even be a pony, behind this." Twilight looked to her little brother, then to the cliffs, and back to Spike. "I really hope that this is just some weird shared dream, but we need to look at our surroundings more, and maybe talk some more in private. Who knows when something else would change." Twilight said as Spike nodded.
I walked across the forest, twirling a bone with my hand as I admired the scenery. Guess the cliffs behind me have seen better days. Wonder what somebody would do if they find it, I dunnow. As I kept on walking, I heard a loud roar come in from me, and I turned around to see a dragon walking towards my direction with an angry look on their face. Welp, I don't know about you, but my nonexistent gut's telling me things are gonna get ugly. Here begins my first battle.
