//------------------------------// // Prolouge: Being summoned. // Story: The Librarians and The Summoned Cat // by Dragon Shimmer //------------------------------// Matt is walking with a giant turtle on his back along with Noleg. They have received the quest from the village near Maple Town as it keeps destroying their crops. When they carry the turtle, the villager is shocked as they don't know how he can take it alone. The chief of the village gives Matt some money. "Thank you for slaying this monster." "Your welcome," Matt takes the money, "That's my job." Matt is heading to their home as Maple Village, Sunset Shimmer's old house where they can actually take a rest without problem. After Sunset Shimmer is gone, the house is following the dragon's will that is put on the table. When the team knows that, they are quite surprised as the orange dragon leaves them a free house, but they have to accept it. The swordsman walks to the big red house and knocks on the door. He hears something inside and follows that explosion. Matt opens the door and sees Lance and Natalie struggling to take care of the white baby cat while it is levitating Anna in the sky. Matt looks at Nolegs as the blue cat just looks away. "You know Noleg," Matt comments, "You really know how to court a girl." Matt catches the cat and tickles her. The baby cat is laughing and teleports to Noleg. It's hugging him and sleeping after that. Lance and Natalie sit on the sofa while Matt puts the things down in the kitchen. Amelia opens the door and takes her kid. "You know Amelia," Lance breathes heavily, "You really know how to torture us." "Come on," Amelia waves her paws, "I just come back when things are done," "Where is your sister?" Natalie looks at the cat, "I thought she was coming with you." "Well," Amelia huffs, "She is... doing her job." "I see," Matt waves his hand, "Come on Amelia, you have to cook dinner with me. Punishment for torture us when you make us suffer from your kid." "Fine," The white cat flies to the kitchen as prepares the food to cook the dinner, "So, what will we eat today?" "Turtle meat and crab meat," Matt huffs, "I should take all of us somewhere to play. This is boring today." "Good idea," Amelia levitates Noleg and hugs him, making the blue cat blush. Matt rolls his eyes as he starts putting things on the stove. When he starts taking the knife, Noleg's body is shining as Amilia and Matt are surprised. Noleg is panicking as he doesn't know why his body is shining. "What happens?" Matt asks, "Why is his body shining bright?" Amelia puts her paw on his forehead and analyzes it, "This is a summoning spell, the force one." Then her paw is shining blue to dispel but it is too late, the blue cat is teleported to another place. The others see that and say nothing, they are silent for a while until Lance turns back to watch TV and says, "Well, Diana will burn us into ash," The blue cat now is standing on Sunset's head as Sunset just smiles. Twilight and Spike look at each other as they want to touch the cat but Noleg slaps them away. "Well," Fluttershy looks at the cat, "I don't know that the cat doesn't have their back legs," "Meow (I'm born like this, please respect)" "Oh, sorry about that," Fluttershy goes out of the library. See you again, Twilight. I hope you can take care of that cat." then she closes the door, leaving Sunset and the purple duo with the cat. "Please tell me that Amelia and Diana make you talk," Sunset says and the blue cat shakes his head and lies on her head, making the orange dragon sigh, "Fine, I will introduce you to Twilight and Spike, they are training magic but not training about battle yet." "Hey, you didn't say that you will train about the battle," Twilight retorts, "I remember that," "Self-defending," Sunset looks at Twilight, "And I don't give you two a punishment for drawing a circle without my permission because I am tired here." The purple duo smiles nervously as the orange dragon yawns, "Anyway, We are tired from the Gala trip tonight so we should sleep." The purple duo and Sunset prepare themself to go to sleep. The night comes as they sleep together. Sunset gets up and finds no one in her room, so she prepares herself and walks downstairs. When she goes to the kitchen, the purple duo and Nolegs are there and they are enjoying breakfast. Sunset sighs and sits down to join them. Spike is rubbing Nolegs as the blue cat seems to enjoy it. "So," Twilight looks at the orange dragon, "You said that this cat is one of your old teammates right?" "Yes," Sunset drinks the coffee, "He is one of my team." "I see," Spike keeps rubbing him, "I don't know how strong is he? He's just a cat, right?" "Never underestimate by the look," Sunset giggles, "I am going to ask him to train two of you about combat and stuff." Then she points at the basement, "I will give the lesson for him and he will teach the rest." Twilight looks at the blue cat, with a stare and tilts her head, "How can a cat teach us how to fight?" "Well, I hope that something happens in this village," Sunset leans on her chair. After a while, a scream comes from outside as the purple duo glares at Sunset, making her smile nervously, "Eh, consequence right?" Nolegs shakes his head and jumps on Sunset's head while Twilight and the dragon duo stand up and go outside to see what happens out there. The trio and the cat are checking into town to see where the sound comes from, a scream comes from the Sweet Apple Acres. The librarians nod and run to check out what happens. When they just arrive, Applejack and her sister are surrounded by four timberwolves as Apple Bloom is hiding behind her sister's back. "Don't ya dare to touch mah' sister," Applejack yells at them, " I will kick all of ya' away," The wolves don't seem to care about what Applejack says. Sunset sees that and counts the wolves, then she looks at the purple duo, "Well, one wolf, one pony.. eh... or... I don't know," "I don't think that I can take it," Twilight feels her spine cold, "But my friend is in danger so I have to save her," "Good word," Sunset smirks as Noleg jumps on Twilight's back, making her confused. Sunset giggles, "Looks like he likes you." Twilight rolls her eyes as the librarians run to Applejack and her sister. The wolves stare at them for a little, then one of them leaps at them to attack but it gets blocked by a small shield. The wolf is surprised, same as the Apple sisters, then it is being flown backward by the force of the shield. Noleg 'meow' then points the sword at the wolves. The others come after that and stand in front of the Apple sisters. The wolves grit their teeth and start attacking them. The librarians look at each other and nod, then they charge at the wolves. Twilight's horn glow and the bubble shield surround the unicorn, making the wolf slam into the shield. The unicorn wraps the shield around the timberwolf and traps it inside. The unicorn touches her shield with her hoof and freezes it, creating an ice cage. Sunset looks at it while dodging the Timberwolf's attack and she likes that idea. Looking at Spike, his eagle is flying around as he slides down to dodge. The fire eagle flies around the wolf and burns around, creating a fire circle. Spike and the wolf trap inside but Spike is simply walking outside without problem. Sunset smirks as she catches the wolf's paw without looking. Sunset's red-eye glowing and glares at the wolf, making the wolf jump back and flee to the Everfree Forest. The orange dragon feels weird but after that, she just smugs and looks at Noleg. The blue cat is standing on the wolf's back while the wolf breathes heavily due to trying to attack the cat but not working. The orange dragon comes to the cat and pats them, "Hey, you really got a good mount." The cat 'meow' happily while the purple duo is coming to the Apple Sister to check their wound. Twilight asks the orange pony, "You good? I thought you would be hurt when the wolf is attacking you." "Ah' okay," Applejack stands up, "Thanks for your help." Then she looks at the fire, "And who is burning mah farm? Please extinguish it or mah farm will burn." Spike looks away from Applejack and whispers while Sunset teleports the cage to Everfree forest. Spike looks at the cat and sees it is riding the Timberwolf without a problem. "Wow, I don't know this cat can do that." "And I will be disappointed when he can't do it," Sunset extinguishes the fire then uses a sleep spell to make the timberwolf, that trap inside the fire ring, sleeps. The orange dragon turns to the cat, "Hey Noleg, could you please take these wolves to their home? I will check the wound." Noleg 'meow' and commands the wolf to carry another one and head to the Everfree forest. The apple sisters look at the cat in amazement while Sunset checks their bodies to see if they have wounds or not. Applebloom smiles, "Thanks." Then the filly looks at the Everfree forest, "Will the cat be fine in there?" "He will," Sunset stands up, "He is tougher than his look. Don't underestimate him." "I see," Applebloom stands up, "Thanks for helping me." "Be careful next time, Applejack," Twilight nods, "We don't know what to do when you get hurt," "Don't worry about me," Applejack waves her hoof, "These little things don't make me scared." The trio heads back to the library while the Apple sisters come back with their daily routine. The purple duo is wondering how a cat can tame a timberwolf without any wound. Sunset just heads to the library and is going to show them how to fight. When the trio just comes back to the library, Rarity is standing in front of the library and looks around. The trio looks at each other and looks back to the white unicorn. Rarity sees and runs to them, "Did you see my cat named Opal here?" "No," Twilight shakes her head, "We are just coming back from the Sweet Apple Acres." "Oh," Rarity rubs her chin, "You see, my cat is chasing a blue cat. That blue cat is wearing armor and grabbing weapons and a shield." The trio knows what cat she is saying as Rarity continues, "Oh, I like that cat. He just like a prince is wearing armor to safe the princess," "Look Rarity," Sunset stops her, "Are you come here to tell us a tale or search your cat?" Rarity grasps, "Right, sorry about that." Suddenly, Noleg is jumping out of the window, then the blue cat jumps on Sunset's head, The white cat is following him but Rarity catches the cat, making it struggle to get free. The dragon smirks at the blue cat while Noleg just lies on her head. Rarity huffs and brings her pet back to her home without a word, much as the trio surprise. The trio goes back to the library and sits on the sofa. Spike takes Noleg and rubs him. Noleg feels the rubs and just leans into his claws. Spike looks at the cat, "Well, I don't know about this cat. you sure that you will take this cat to train us." "Who can train you right now?" Sunset retorts, "I'm quite busy and don't have much time to teach you right now." "I see," Twilight nods, "But I still doubt this cat. Is he strong enough to train us," "You will see," Sunset stands up and takes out the board to start teaching them about magic. The purple duo nods as they come to study. The library now has one more member for now.
