//------------------------------// // Zapped // Story: Zap To The Future // by Lulamoon-Crystal //------------------------------// Two ponies stood next to a wooden table in the library. Twilight looked at Starlight who was across from her, as they both were thinking on how to work this spell, it was going to be a tricky one. The spell required a lot of energy, they had to combine their magic for this one. Also, they had to be careful as the Cutie Mark Crusaders were at the table right next to them. They each had a few pages of paper in front of them, their homework, it was almost done. They also had a book with them about different types of animals. The two’s horns started to glow. Between them both a ball of light started to form, it was big and bright. The CMC were done with their homework, they decided it was best to leave quietly. They didn’t want to disturb Starlight and Twilight. It looked very important. So they left the table, homework with them, making as little noise as possible. They left the book behind on the table as they made their way to the door. As they approached the door it suddenly flew open, almost hitting the three, they heard and saw a certain unicorn happily yell out. “Hey Starlight!” Trixie screamed loudly, waving her leg. “Trixie!?” Starlight exclaimed in shock, “Nooo!” She shouted as she lost focus on the spell. The ball of light turned into a giant beam and blasted itself towards Trixie who went flying into the CMC and the three hit a wall, knocking them out. Light formed around them, Starlight and Twilight frantically tried to cancel it, but there was nothing they could do. Both Starlight And Twilight had to shield their eyes from the light, they closed their eyes and listened to the loud magical noise. They really hoped the spell would fail and the four would be fine! After a few seconds, they removed their hooves slowly and opened their eyes, they were a little shaky. The light was gone, so was the CMC and Trixie, a scorch mark was where they were instead. Twilight’s jaw fell to the ground in shock, Starlight screamed. “We killed them!” She exclaimed with tears going down her face, “We- W-we killed...” “I don’t think we did...” Twilight started in horror. Starlight couldn’t believed her ears! She started to aggressively shake Twilight. “Are you crazy!? She screeched.” Izzy Moonbow was trotting through the plains on her way to Maretine Bay. She had just visited Bridlewood and packed some stuff from her home there. She carried it in a box in her magical. “Hmm, doo, do- Lala, woo!” She sung to herself happing as she skipped through the fields. Izzy was humming a tune, then she noticed a purple hat with a lot of stars on the floor. Looking at it she gasped in surprise! It was so pretty to her! “Ooo a starry hat! Someone must’ve dropped it!” She assumed happily. She picked it up hoping the owner wasn’t too far away, the next thing she saw was a butterfly, she giggled a little as it flew near her. “Oh hello butterfly! What are you doing?” She asked it with a giggle. The butterfly flew over a large patch of grass and back to Izzy, she watched it curiously. She took a few steps towards where it flew to. It then went back and started to fly around something, it was circling in the air, Izzy giggled. “Are you trying to show me something?” She asked. She walked over to what the butterfly was trying to show her, she gasped when she saw what it was! Three unconscious fillies and an unconscious mare, she grew worried, hoping that they weren’t dead. “Oh no!” She gasped. Izzy took a step back, not knowing what to do. “Don’t worry, I’ll get you guys some help!”. Izzy galloped as fast as she could to Maretine Bay, she needed to get Sunny, there was no way she would have been able to help those four ponies at once. ☀️ Izzy galloped back to the four ponies, Sunny, Pipp and Zipp worriedly followed. She stopped at the four unconscious ponies, the butterfly was still floating above them. “Oh my...” Pipp gasped as she grabbed her phone, only for Zipp to slap her hoof. “Now is not the time!” She scolded. Pipp groaned annoyed and put her pone back under her wing, Sunny checked the ponie’s pulses and had a smile. “They are still alive, but let’s get them to my house, so we can make sure they’re okay”, Zipp, Pipp and Izzy nodded in agreement, Pipp was not wanting to do it but knew she had to. There were four ponies and that meant they all had to carry one each. Pipp carried Applebloom on her back hoping she wouldn’t do anything to her wings or mane, Zipp carried Scootaloo, Izzy carried Sweetie Belle and Sunny carried Trixie. They all walked as fast as they could to Sunny’s home. ☀️ The four were laid on Sunny’s bed, Scootaloo and Trixie were at each end, not realising where they were. Scootaloo was the first to wake up, she slowly opened her eyes and heard an unknown voice, it was slightly muffled. “They are waking up!”. “Hey new friend! I’m Izzy!”. The first thing she saw was a unicorn’s face, She jumped back in fright, waking up Sweetie Belle and Applebloom. She stared around in shock, not knowing what to say. Applebloom yawned and rubbed her eyes, she didn’t seem to notice that she wasn’t home yet. “Good morning...” She yawned. Sweetie Belle also looked around, she shook a bit in fear. “Where are we? What happened?” She asked. Scootaloo pointed at the four mares who stood in the room with worry. “Who are you and where are we!?” She shouted. Trixie yawned and ended up falling off the bed, she rose up and looked around. Her face turned into terror, and she put her hooves to her head. “Arrrrgh! The great and powerful Trixie’s head hurts!” She shouted in pain. “What happened?” Applebloom muttered as she looked around, she now seemed to noticed that she wasn’t home. “Beats me” Sweetie Belle replied. “Well...” Izzy replied, “I found you in some grass, so I decided to get you help since you guys looked dead...”. “Wait... grass?” Applebloom asked, “What do you mean?”. Sunny spoke next, “I’m Sunny, Izzy found you guys unconscious in the grass a few minutes away from my house, we brought you here because we were worried”. “My names Zipp” Zipp replied, she pointed to her pouting sister ”She’s Pipp”. Izzy approached Trixie who was on the ground curled up making noises of pain. “Hey, Trixie?, are you okay?” She asked. “No!” Trixie shouted back. “But where are we?” Scootaloo asked, a bit annoyed. “Oh... in Maretine Bay” Sunny replied. “Never heard of it” Applebloom replied. “Me neither” Exclaimed Sweetie Belle. “I can’t remember...” Groaned Scootaloo as she put a hoof on her forehead. “Yeah my head hurts...” Groaned Sweetie Belle. “Mine too... ah’ can’t remember ah’ thing” Applebloom replied. “Mine’s more great and powerful than yours!” Trixie shrieked in pain as she laid on the ground. Sunny sighed, her ears drooped, “You poor things, let me see if I have anything that will help with your headache...” Zipp added to Sunny’s comment, “maybe you will remember something”. Sunny left the room with Pipp and Zipp, Izzy stayed in the room and watched them. “What do you remember?” She asked. “Well...” Sweetie Belle started, “I remember a flash of light... and that’s it”. Applebloom and Scootaloo nodded, they spoke at the same time, “Me too!”. “You want to be friends!?” Izzy asked with excitement. “I don’t know... I just want to go home...” Sweetie Belle replied sadly. “Me too...” Scootaloo said sadly. “Me three” Applebloom sighed. They heard Trixie crying. “Make it stop!”.
