//------------------------------// // Episode 1: The Beginning of a New Adventure // Story: Twilight Sparkle gets a Genshin Impact Season 1 // by MLPandMiraculousFanatic //------------------------------// The Episode begins on the beach where some symbols were drawn as a few crabs checked it out while Paimon spoke "So... What you're both saying is that you fell here from another world?" Paimon asked [Flashback Start] The screen the showed a flew flashing lights in the dark before finally seven ponies, one dragon and two people were seen walking down the stone streets "But when you wanted to leave and go on to the next world your path was blocked by some unknown god?" Paimon asked Three red lights then appeared as Rainbow flew forward a bit in anger "Hey scaredy cat, show yourself!" Rainbow ordered angrily Applejack then stepped forward too "She's right, your tyrantry is over!" Applejack reminded angrily Just then a girl with appeared who looked bigger than all 10 people "Outlanders, your journey ends here" The person said "Not if we have anything to say about it!" Pinkie said angrily They then all glared while Rarity could only look in awe as Lumine could only look at the person angrily "Who're you?!" Lumine asked "The sustainer of heavenly principles" The person answered "You certainly look like it" Rarity said "Rarity! Focus!" Twilight ordered "The arrogation of pony and mankind ends now!" The person said Just then a massive block appeared which caused most ponies to jump to the side in fright only to see Rarity and Fluttershy got caught! "Rarity! Fluttershy!" The others called out "Ack! Save yourselves my friends!" Fluttershy called out "Yeah, get yourselves to safety!" Rarity ordered "No, we're not!" Twilight said Pinkie then flew towards the block with her mane and used a flame thrower causing the god to get pain "Ouch! You stupid fool! Don't hurt me!" The god said "Not until my friends are---" Pinkie started only to get caught "Ack!" Pinkie called out "Pinkie!" The group called out "We better fight now!" Rainbow ordered "No we're not! It's too dangerous!" Twilight said "I agree sugarcube, I don't like this god but she's too dangerous! We'd better escape!" Applejack said Spike then flew up "Yes, move out!" Spike said The group then galloped to safety leaving the two humans to prepare to fight as they fought while the god summoned some blocks towards the group which the group dodged until Spike fell off of Twilight's back which Twilight felt making her stop "Spike!" Twilight called out But soon enough Spike was gone as Twilight began began sobbing but just when Twilight was about to get hit by the blocks she felt herself being pushed aside "Careful!" Rainbow called out Twilight then turned around only to see Applejack was gone while Rainbow got trapped "Hold on!" Twilight called out Twilight then rushed to Rainbow "Just go Twilight, I can handle whatever it takes" Rainbow said as she struggled to get free "But... Only if I... Can free myself... Of course" Rainbow said between struggles "But Rainbow...!" Twilight started "Twilight, if anything happens to me just know that I love you no matter what so please, escape this brat no matter what and..." Rainbow said as the blocks slowly began engulfing her "Save us" Rainbow finished before she was fully engulfed Twilight then sobbed before she noticed the blocks rushing towards her "I'll never forget you Rainbow, or anypony for that matter!" Twilight said Twilight then flew as fast as she could to evade the blocks as she tried to reach the person as she noticed the two people continuing to fight only for the boy to get trapped while the girl blocked it as she used her magic to make a shield causing her to get trapped in the blocks surrounded in the shield as she slowly began gasping for her breath before slowly falling unconscious as she could hear a girl screaming which made her let lose a tear knowing she'd failed "I'm sorry my friends" Twilight thought [Flashback End] "And just like that the god took away Lumine's brother and my friends, some kind of seal was cast upon me and I lost my wings so while we used to travel from universe to universe we are now trapped here with my friends nowhere to be seen" Twilight finished explaining We then saw a tiny girl with white hair, an large white jacket with yellow parts, white shoes with yellow parts and a space like colored cape getting teary eyed "I feel so horrible" Paimon said "No, no, it's fine, I just need to find them is all, I just hope they're fine" Twilight explained "I know what you mean miss but don't worry, we're gonna find them no matter what!" Pinkie said "Thanks miss" Twilight thanked "Just call me Paimon miss" Paimon suggested "And you may call me Twilight" Twilight said The two then turned around where they saw a girl with long blonde hair with a few bows, a white and blue scarf, a white, yellow and blue dress and white and yellow boots drawing with a stick on the sand "Hey, you okay Lumine?" Twilight asked "Yeah I am but how many years was it again?" Lumine asked "I don't know" Twilight answered "Yeah but I intend to find out" Lumine said "Same! You still need to find your brother and I need to find my friends!" Twilight said "I agree but what happened when you woke up?" Lumine asked "I just went around and found some leaves and other edible vegeterian stuff to eat, I even cooked it right there!" Twilight explained pointing to the campfire she just blowed out "That explains why I was alone when I woke up" Aether explained "Yeah but it wasn't until we met Paimon two months ago" Twilight explained "Yeah, Paimon really owes you for that otherwise Paimon likely would've drowned" Paimon explained "I still don't know how that's possible" Twilight explained "Still, Paimon will do her best to be a great guide" Paimon said "Thanks Paimon, I will trust your word for it, Pinkie promise" Twilight explained The duo then turned around to see Lumine looking into the distance before Paimon turned to them "Speaking of which, we should head off, let's get going!" Paimon suggested "Where are we going?" Twilight asked "I'll tell you later!" Paimon said "Okay!" Twilight said The two then began running to another side of the beach, presumably the part where Twilight used to find food but soon enough they got to a dead end "The path ends here, guess we'll just have to climb" Paimon explained "I'll just teleport if that's okay" Twilight said "That's fine too" Paimon said Lumine then climbed while Paimon and Twilight teleported to the upper part of the cliff and when Lumine arrived Paimon turned to her "Okay, let's take the route we planned now!" Paimon said "Can you tell us now?!" Twilight asked, getting more impatient "Ugh! Fine!" Paimon said in disbelief before thinking "We're off to..." Paimon thought before she realized it "The Statue of the Seven!" Paimon answered "Which of the seven are you looking for exactly?" Twilight asked "Uhh..." Paimon started nervously "We'll explain later" Lumine said "You know it too?!" Twilight asked angrily "The moment you went to find food we were talking about it so I guess nobody told you" Lumine explained "Oh okay, let's go then" Twilight said The two then continued walk while Paimon followed their lead until they got to a cliff making Paimon teleport closer and look at the sight in awe "Oh wowwwww!" Paimon called out in awe The two then looked in disbelief before they approached their guide only to see the sight too "Wow! This looks amazing!" Twilight said in awe "This doesn't look like your country, right?" Lumine asked "No it doesn't, sure this looks like something Equestria would have but this does not look like it, did we travel to the past?" Twilight asked "I'm not sure Twilight" Lumine answered "Oh okay" Twilight said Paimon then turned to the duo and pointed to a spot in the outskirts where they saw the Statue of the Seven "That's a Statue of the Seven!" Paimon answered "Wow! How'd you know that?!" Twilight asked "Well, there are a few of these statues scattered across the land to show the Seven's protection over the world" Paimon explained "What are Seven's? And what are these Statues for?" Twilight asked "They are gods and among the seven gods this god controls the wind" Paimon explained "Oh okay" Twilight answered "Paimon's not sure whether the god you're looking for is the Anemo God but Paimon'll take you to the Anemo God's place first and there's a reason why" Paimon explained "But you won't tell me, right?" Twilight asked "Yep, not until you get more of an explanation about the world" Paimon explained "Okay" Twilight said The group then began walking as Paimon began speaking again "As we all know, poetry and language flow like the wind, there'll definitely be someone there who knows about your brother or friends, at least, that's what Paimon thinks, whether the gods actually answer you is a different story, you never know unless you try so let's hop to it!" Paimon reminded The two soon reached the pond where they suddenly stopped "Now what?!" Twilight said "I guess we have to swim" Lumine said "Ugh! Fine, at least it isn't ice" Twilight said in disbelief The two then swam and soon enough they arrived at the Statue of the Seven as Lumine approached the statue "What are you doing?!" Twilight asked in shock and worry Lumine then looked back at Paimon in worry before Paimon nodded making her sigh in relief while Twilight only got more worried until Lumine touched the stone causing the stone to charge all of it's energy into a ball in the palm of a creature's hands before a ball of light flew towards Lumine and flew into her chest causing some magic to go into her veins "Are you okay?!" Twilight asked running towards Lumine in worry "Yeah, I'm fine, thanks for asking" Lumine answered "No worries but let me guess you two made plans without me knowing?!" Twilight asked "A little bit but there are some parts with you in it" Paimon answered "SOME?!" Twilight asked "Okay Twilight, I know you want to find your friends but you don't need to worry as you have us" Lumine reminded "Then why couldn't you wait until I was with you girls to discuss it?!" Twilight asked "Yeah, sorry about that but we can assure you it won't happen again" Paimon said "Okay then" Twilight said in disbelief "Anyways did you just feel the elements of the world?" Paimon asked "Yeah I did" Lumine answered "Seems all you had to do was just touch the statue and you got the power of the Anemo!" Paimon said in happiness before she realized something "As much as they want it people in this world can never get a hold of power as easily as you" Paimon explained "I agree, I didn't learn my magic so easily so maybe you can" Twilight explained "Yeah and I think I know why, it's because..." Lumine started before she got confused "Ah-ha, it's because you're not from this worl to begin with" Paimon explained "Maybe but it might also not be true, I just need to do some scientific tests" Twilight explained "No need, I can figure it out easily" Lumine said before turning to Paimon "Now what?" Lumine asked "If we keep heading west from here we'll eventually reach Mondstadt, the city of Freedom" Paimon explained pointing to what looked like an ancient city "This place looks a lot like old Equestria" Twilight said in awe "I agree even though I do not know how Equestria looks like" Lumine said "When this is all over I will immediately show you" Twilight said "Promise?" Lumine asked "Yes, I pinkie promise, cross my heart and hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye" Twilight said singingly "Very well" Lumine said "Anyways, what is Mondstadt about?" Twilight asked "Mondstadt is the city of wind because they worship the God of Anemo so perhaps because you got power from the God of Anemo you can find some clues there" Paimon explained "That's actually not a bad idea" Lumine said "And there are also a lot of bards there so perhaps one of them has heard news of your brother or your friends" Paimon explained "That's amazing!" Twilight said excitedly "Let's move then!" Paimon suggested The two then began walking before they noticed Paimon staying still making them worried "What's wrong Paimon?" Twilight asked "Oh it's nothing, it's just, the elements in this world responded to your prayers and Paimon thinks that's a lovely sign" Paimon explained "Oh okay" Twilight said Afterwards the two began walking down the path to Mondstadt before some kind of dragon was heard roaring making them look up "Wow! What is that?" Paimon asked "I don't know!" Lumine answered "There's something huge in the sky!" Paimon explained "Was that a dragon?!" Twilight asked "I think so" Lumine answered "It's headed towards the heart of the forest, we must proceed with caution" Paimon suggested "But what if it's leading towards Fluttershy or Spike?! I could see my friends!" Twilight said Twilight then ran off "Twilight! No!" Paimon and Lumine called out But Twilight didn't listen and just rushed forward causing Paimon and Lumine to rush after her and when they got near the heart of the forest they could see Twilight hiding while sobbing which Paimon saw first "Huh? Look at her!" Paimon called out worriedly The two then rushed to Twilight "You okay?" Paimon asked "N-No, I-I didn't s-see my friends" Twilight answered "Don't be such a cry baby, I'm sure we can still find our friends" Lumine explained "B-But..." Twilight started "I know it's tough for you but trust me when I say that your friends would never leave you behind, I'm sure they're just searching for you" Lumine explained Twilight then sighed in defeat "Yeah you're right, I should not be such a crybaby, I still need to find a way to save my friends and stop that wretched witch, even after Rainbow's speech" Twilight said "See, now calm down" Lumine said The three then hugged it out before they stood up and began walking until they noticed somebody standing near the same blue dragon they saw moments earlier which made them hide behind a rock or a tree before they took a look as they saw a guy with black hair to light blue, wearing a light turquoise hat with a green feather, he also wore a white vest with a brown underpart with lots of buttons, a belt which held a bunch of stuff on a clip, dark green king-like pants, white leggins and black shoes as the guy was giving the dragon some food to eat while the dragon began roaring "...Don't be afraid... It's alright now, I'm back" The guy assured Paimon then got confused "Is he talking... To a dragon?" Paimon asked Just then Lumine's magic flashed causing the two of her friends to look in shock while the dragon roared twice in anger before trying to snap Venti in half in anger only for him to dodge "Who's there?!" The guy called out angrily The dragon then got enraged as he prepared to fly off causing Venti to back off before teleporting away while the three others who watched the situation tried not to get blown away before the dragon flew off causing the gust of wind to disappear and them to calm down "What was that all about?!" Twilight asked in shock and disbelief "I don't know!" Lumine answered The two then turned around and saw Paimon panting making them worried "That was close! Paimon almost got blown away!" Paimon said in relief "I know but is everyone okay?" Twilight asked "Yeah, but it felt like someone tugged on my hair" Lumine explained "Well, um... Paimon accidentally held your pony tail! Sorry" Paimon apologized "It's fine, seeing as this was a big gust of wind I understand" Lumine said "That's a relief" Paimon said "Still, it's a good thing you didn't pull my hair out" Lumine said Paimon then got nervous before she shook her head when she finished she pointed to Lumine's chest "Still, what was that? Paimon thought we were gonna gonna get eaten" Paimon reminded "Yeah, some green light suddenly popped out" Twilight agreed "I don't know, I'm as clueness as you guys" Lumine explained "Still, it definitely has something to do with that weirdo who was talking to the dragon..." Paimon explained "I agree, that must've been a signal for other danger" Twilight explained "Is talking to dragons normal?" Lumine asked "Of course, I even have a baby dragon that talks to me all the time" Twilight explained "Oh okay" Lumine answered "Still, this dragon looked enraged, what was that all about?" Twilight asked "I don't know but Paimon gets why you're worried..." Paimon explained "Same here" Lumine said Paimon then looked around only to notice a glowing red orb flying in the distance "What's that?" Paimon asked "Huh?" Twilight asked in confusion Twilight and Lumine then turned around in confusion only to see nothing "What's got you so perked up?" Lumine asked Paimon then moved her head a bit closer to look at it "There's some kind of shiny red thingy on the big rock over there..." Paimon explained Paimon then pointed at it making the two others look at it making them both confused "Do you know what that is Lumine?" Twilight asked "I don't know either" Lumine answered "Then Paimon suggests we go take a closer look" Paimon suggested "Good idea, let's go!" Twilight said The two then slowly walked on over to the rock "Be careful girls! Paimon doesn't have a good feeling about this..." Paimon said The three soon enough reached the upper rock and when they did they looked at the rock in confusion "What kind of stone is that?" Twilight asked "Paimon's never seen a stone like this before so Paimon can't tell what it is, all Paimon knows is that it's dangerous, best we put it away for now" Paimon suggested "I agree Twilight" Lumine said "Alright, hold on for a moment" Twilight said Twilight then pulled off a few leaves from some trees before putting the stone in it and using some ropes to tie it up "What are you doing?" Lumine asked "Making a bag so that we can easily carry it and you may carry it if you want Lumine" Twilight said "Good idea" Lumine said Twilight then levitated the bag to Lumine who then grabbed the top of it "Okay, we've got it! Now let's get out of here" Paimon suggested The three then continued to walk to Mondstadt as they exited the forest and right when they did somebody called out "Hey you! Stop right there!"A woman's voice called out The trio then turned around only to see somebody running, the said person had dark brown hair with a red bow on top, she wore a white vest with a brown top, a black leather belt, with yellow details on top, a red jacket with a brown mask on top, red and black gloves, a brown skirt and belt on the left leg, red sockings and white and gold boots before she jumped high above the trio before landing with a roll on the ground causing her to balance herself for a moment before turning to the trio as the three travelers could only look in awe "That was amazing!" Twilight called out "I agree" Lumine said in agreement "Thanks and may the Anemo God protect you strangers!" The woman said "Thank you um..." Twilight Sparkle started "I am Amber, Outrider for the Knights of Favonius" Amber introduced "Well, um, thank you Amber and nice to meet you" Twilight said Amber then nodded before she looked at the trio again making her confused "You don't look like citizens of Mondstadt, explain yourselves!" Amber ordered Twilight and Lumine then got nervous before Paimon moved in front of the duo "We're not looking for trouble" Paimon explained worriedly "That's what all the troublemakers say" Amber reminded "Let's not get ahead of ourselves" Twilight suggested before she stepped forward "I'm Twilight Sparkle and these are my fellow travelers Lumine and Paimon" Twilight said "Hi!" Lumine greeted "...Doesn't sound like a local name to me" Amber reminded before turning to Paimon "And this Paimon... What's the deal with her?" Amber asked "We're friends" Twilight answered "I mean, we've only been traveling partners for two months but we've already become the very best of friends!" Paimon explained "So to sum it up, you're traveling partners, right?" Amber asked "Yeah, why?" Twilight asked "Well, look, there's been a large dragon sighted around Mondstadt recently, best you get inside the city as soon as possible" Amber explained "Yeah, but where is it?" Twilight asked "It's not far from here, I'll escort you there" Amber suggested "Oh? Aren't you here for some other reason?" Paimon asked "I am but not to worry I can keep you three safe while doing that too and besides... I'm still not sure if I can trust you three just yet!" Amber explained "Why are you being so suspicious?" Twilight asked "Oh, ahh... I'm sorry, probably not something I should say as a knight, I give you my apologies, uh... Strange yet... Respectable travelers" Amber apologized "No, no, it's fine, it really is" Lumine said "That sounded so fake!" Paimon said "Paimon, be nice!" Twilight ordered "What?! It's true!" Paimon reminded "Do you have something against the type of language usage prescribed by the Knights of Favonius Handbook?!" Amber asked angrily "No I don't!" Paimon answered "Just let her be, she can be a bit uncontrollable at times" Twilight explained while giving a side glare at Paimon "It's alright, anyways follow me" Amber said as the three began walking "So, suspicious travelers, what are you doing in Mondstadt?" Amber asked "Well, uh, they got separated from their friends and brothers during a really, really long journey" Paimon explained "And we're trying to find them" Twilight explained "Yep and that is why Paimon is their travelling buddy, helping them to find their friends and brothers" Paimon explained "Oh, looking for your friends and family... Huh? Ah..." Amber thought before she realized something "Okay! Let me finish my other stuff first and then I can help you put up posters around the city..." Amber suggested "That'd be kind, thanks" Twilight thanked "What exactly is it you need to finish doing first though?" Paimon asked "It's simple, you'll understand in a bit" Amber explained The three then began walking a bit more but this time in silence until they heard some creatures roaring "Ah! A hilichurl!" Paimon called out in shock "Quick! Get it!" Amber ordered After calling that out Twilight and Lumine began running to the hilichurl to which the hilichurl saw them making it run with their bat raised shocking them as Twilight turned to Lumine "Lumine, you handle them from the front, I'll handle them from behind!" Twilight said Lumine then nodded as Twilight began running sideways making the hilichurl charge to Lumine right before she summoned her sword and blocked the bat sending her backwards a bit with a grunt "Think you can defeat me?!" Lumine asked The hilichurl then gave another whack with the bat to which Lumine ducked before slashing the sword below the ground sending the hilichurl falling to the ground as Twilight used her magic to keep it in place "Now Amber!" Twilight called out "You got it!" Amber said Amber then used the biggest bow she had to send a rock flying off the cliff causing it to roll towards the hilichurl, Twilight and Lumine "Jump!" Twilight called out Afterwards Twilight and Lumine jumped back right before the rock crushed them as the rock squished the hilichurl causing it to get knocked out as it stopped by it's head right before it tumbled sideways to where Paimon was "Paimon, look out!" Lumine called out "Oh, right!" Paimon called out Paimon then teleported sideways causing the rock to roll into the distance and when it was gone everyone cheered "We did it!" Twilight called out "Thanks to you of course" Lumine called out Amber then approached the hilichurl with her hand glove sparkling with fire as she touched the hilichurl causing it to incinerate easily before she turned to her now friends "Now, what was that all about?" Paimon asked angrily "Well, these monsters have been getting to close to the city recently, my task this time is to clear out their camp" Amber explained Afterwards the trio began walking again, trying to forget what just happened until they noticed a camp with more hilichurls "Not again!" Twilight called out in disbelief "Don't worry, we know what to do" Lumine said "You know it! Let's get to it!" Amber said The three then rushed to the hilichurl camp and knocked each one out before Amber suggested the two needed to move out before she used a flaming arrow to burn the camp down before she stopped "Heh, nothing to it" Amber said "I agree, it wasn't that hard!" Twilight said in agreement "Yeah, though I gotta say you surprised me a little with your moves there..." Amber said "I agree!" Lumine said Paimon then flew to the group "Is it safe now?" Paimon asked Hehe, of course it is Paimon, you can be sure of that" Twilight answered "That's a relief" Paimon said in relief "Thanks for the backup by the way, how'd it feel?" Amber asked "It was tough of course but we managed it" Lumine explained "Except my friends weren't here to witness it" Twilight whispered Amber who heard that then turned to Twilight "What was that?!" Amber asked "Oh! Nothing at all, just a little bummed that my friends were not here either" Twilight said "I understand but you were pretty tough yourself, especially to those lame-o hilichurls" Amber said "Thanks" Twilight thanked "Now that you mention it, how is it the hilichurls ended up here? These creatures don't seem like the type to set up camps so close to cities like this" Paimon explained "Exactly, it's more normal for them to be much further out in the wilderness" Amber explained "Then what caused them to get closer?" Twilight asked "Well, because the dragon aka Stormterror has been around a lot more recently, our orchards have been destroyed and the local market has been affected as well, when the storms hit, we usually end up with at least a few injuries so the Knights of Favonius have been tied up doing the best they can to defend the area" Amber explained "So these annoying creatures have been getting closer and closer to the city?" Paimon asked "Exactly, that said, clearing this camp helped make the area a little bit safer" Amber explained "And it's all thanks to us!" Twilight said "Yep, now come with me! A responsible knight must make sure to see you to the city safely" Amber reminded The four then walked to Mondstadt and after a while they arrived and when they did they looked around and saw the beautiful sight of it all "WOW!" The trio called out in awe Amber then went to stand in front of the trio making them look at her "Let me officially introduce you to the city of wind, dandelions and freedom, travelers under the protection of the Knights of Favonius, welcome to Mondstadt!" Amber announced "Finally, no more having to camp outdoors!" Paimon said in relief "I just hope I can find my friends here!" Twilight said excitedly "Or my brother!" Lumine said The group then looked around only to see other people walking around with neutral or frowns on their faces "This town really needs Pinkie Pie" Twilight said "Yeah... The city folk don't look too cheery" Paimon agreed "Everyone's been put out of place by Stormterror recently but everything will turn out fine as long as Jean's with us!" Amber explained "Jean?" Paimon asked in confusion "Who's that?" Twilight asked "Acting Grand Master of the Knights of Favonius, Jean, Defender of Mondstadt so with Jean on our side surely even the vicious Stormterror will be no match for us" Amber explained "Sound's like somebody pretty impressive..." Lumine whispered to Twilight Twilight then nodded before the two looked back at Amber "Before I take you girls to the Knights of Favonius Headquarters I have a present for you two" Amber explained "A present? What for?" Twilight asked "It's a reward for helping me clear out that hilichurl camp" Amber explained "H-Hey! Why doesn't Paimon get a reward?" Paimon asked angrily "Ahh... Because this reward is useless to you Paimon but I'll treat you to a traditional Mondstadt delicacy, Sticky Honey Roast" Amber said "Sticky Honey Roast!" Paimon said excitedly while turning to her friends "Come with me, we'll head to the city's... High grounds" Amber said Afterwards the four then walked up the stairs as they looked around to see everyone doing their own thing until Twilight noticed a familiar blue pony in brown uniform with a blue cape and light brown bandages and she even wore a brown elastic on her tail "R-Rainbow!" Twilight called out "You know her?" Amber asked "Yeah, she's my friend" Twilight answered "Your... Friend?" Amber asked in confusion "Yeah, what's wrong with that?" Twilight asked "Nothing, it's just, she didn't tell me about any friend of hers, she didn't even remember where she lived and what not" Amber answered "Huh? That's weird? So, you just took her in?" Twilight asked "Yeah, the past few months me and a few other Knights of Favonius trained her into a knight, we were hoping when somebody would find her" Amber said "She comes from Equestria and we're friends, we used to go on missions until some kind of god who almost looks a lot like Paimon brought us here" Twilight explained "Excuse me?! Are you calling me a bad god?!" Paimon asked "No, but I do see similarities to you both" Twilight answered "You know, Twilight's right, she does look an awful lot like that god we fought before" Lumine explained "Hmm, looks like we'll have to do a few tests when we're done with this" Amber said "Thank you Amber, I knew we could count on you" Twilight thanked "No worries, though, thanks for telling us about her" Amber thanked "No worries" Twilight said The four then continued walking as Twilight could only think in worry about Rainbow "This used to be a bustling street... But with so many Stormterror attacks recently the usual crowds are nowhere to be seen except for the local tavern near the city wall over there, they haven't been affected, if anything, their business is better than ever" Amber explained "That's horrible!" Twilight said in worry "Did Rainbow witness all of these attacks?" Lumine asked "She did, she even wanted to go attack one of these times but she was forced into her home due to not having enough skills yet so me and a few other Knights of Favonius send it away everytime" Amber explained "Oh okay" Twilight said "Still the same cocky girl she was before" Twilight thought But soon enough the group arrived at the top of Mondstadt as Amber turned to the trio "So, the present I want to give you is... A Wind Glider!" Amber explained pointing to two windgliders One was a purple wind glider with Twilight's Cutie Mark on it but it had a chair with stretched legs on it along with some levers and buttons just to make it easier for Twilight while the other windglider was just a plain beige one "Wow! Amazing! What do they do?!" Twilight asked in shock and disbelief "Outriders use them to ride the wind and the people of Mondstadt love using them too" Amber explained "Does Rainbow have her own personal one too?" Twilight asked "No she doesn't since she can actually fly, some other Knights of Favonius people learned her too, they basically learned how to do it from certain books, I was one of them" Amber explained "Oh okay" Twilight said "Anyways, I brought you here to give it to you so you can experience it right away!" Amber explained Oh, you're really excited about these wind gliders huh?!" Paimon asked in shock and disbelief "Well that's because the wind is the heart and soul of Mondstadt!" Amber reminded "Alrighty then, enough talk! Let's give it a whirl!" Amber suggested "It's easy to use but you still need to pay attention to my instructions" Amber reminded Twilight and Lumine then got a few lessons on how to use the wind glider before they started flying themselves until landing right next to Amber who then turned to them in happiness "That was amazing!" Twilight said Paimon then teleported near them "That was crazy but I'm so glad you made it safely!" Paimon said "Thanks" Lumine said "Now then, what's next?" Twilight asked Just then a powerful gust of wind blew by the group causing Rainbow to run by in worry "It's coming again!" Rainbow called out Afterwards the group turned to the sky as they saw the clouds forming making them worried "The sky..." Amber said in shock Just then the blue dragon reappeared shocking everybody in town before it got near Lumine and Twilight who ducked before looking up at the sky "We have to do something!" Twilight said "Are you thinking what I'm thinking?" Lumine asked "Yes I do, Amber, Rainbow, it's best you get everyone to safety!" Twilight suggested "Wait?! Is that my name?! Did you come stalking me?!" Rainbow asked "You don't remember me?" Twilight asked "Of course not! I don't remember a stalker like you! All I know is that this place is cursed! Did you send this beast?!" Rainbow asked angrily Just then the dragon roared again causing a few tornadoes to appear "No, time to explain, run!" Twilight called out Afterwards everyone began running as Twilight went to her wind glider where she lifted up in the air while Lumine and Amber continued to run before Lumine got caught in the tornado causing her to get send flying before she ended up high above Mondstadt with Twilight "Now, where is this brat?!" Twilight asked angrily Just then the dragon flew towards the group making them split up as Paimon then teleported by them in confusion "Huh? How are you two staying afloat like this with just wind gliders?" Paimon asked "I'm preventing your fall with the power of a thousand winds, now concentrate you two, see yourselves grasping the wind, harness it's energy" A voice suggested Paimon the looked around in confusion which Twilight and Lumine also did "Who... Who said that?!" Paimon asked But when the voice didn't answer they shrugged before Lumine used one free hand to hit the blue dragon while Twilight used her magic to shoot lasers at it as the dragon continued to fly without their knowledge but when Twilight accidentally hit it's weak spot it roared before flying off which made Twilight and Lumine block themselves before they noticed it was gone "It's gone!" Twilight called out in shock and worry "Let's get down to safety then, there's no way we can follow them anymore" Lumine said "Good idea" Twilight said Afterwards the two went back to the ground while Paimon teleported off and when they landed Amber and Rainbow approached them "I don't know what you stalkers did but that was AWESOME!" Rainbow said in awe "Thanks Rainbow" Twilight thanked "A-Are you two hurt though?" Amber asked "No we aren't" Lumine answered "Yeah, and Rainbow we're not stalkers" Twilight asked "Yes you are, how else did this dragon get here?! You send it here without our knowledge did you?!" Rainbow asked "Of course we didn't! You're cocky head needs to listen right now! We're your friends and we're gonna stop this dragon, we don't even know how that happened, you got that?!" Twilight asked angrily "Are you saying I'm stupid?!" Rainbow asked "What?! No I'm not!" Twilight answered "Then how come I would trust any of you right now?!" Rainbow asked angrily "Rainbow, I know this might sound crazy but they didn't send it here and you should stop being such an a-hole or else you're gonna be kicked out of the Knights of Favonius?!" Amber asked "And why do you trust them?!" Rainbow asked angrily "Believe me, I didn't at first until they helped me with the hilichurls and besides when they saw you I thought of doing tests to you whether you like it or not, you wanted to find a way home didn't you?!" Amber reminded "Gh---! Yes I did but I like this place so much that I didn't want to leave so whether you like it or not, I'm not doing tests!" Rainbow reminded angrily "Rainbow, you're like a friend of me back home, somepony who would without a doubt do something for their friend and even for their boss, don't you?" Twilight asked "Wha-?! How'd you know, stalker?" Rainbow asked "Because that said pony is the Element of Loyalty and she looks just like you" Twilight explained "You're thinking of the wrong pony!" Rainbow reminded "But, that said pony has a tattoo on their flank of a cloud with a rainbow lightning bolt doesn't she?" Twilight asked "Yeah, and so did I" Rainbow answered "Well, she also sounds just like you and can be a bit cocky and stubborn at times" Twilight explained "You know, I have to agree with her" Amber said "Fine! If you say so!" Rainbow said in defeat Despite not trusting Twilight, Rainbow hugged her and felt a friendly feeling coming from her as she hugged back "I know you don't remember a lot but I remember you, you were the most loyal friend I've ever met in Equestria" Twilight said "I... I was? And what's Equestria?" Rainbow asked Twilight and Rainbow broke the hug off "It's a long story but I'll tell you later, all I know is that you're the Element of Loyalty" Twilight explained "Element of Loyalty? You have a lot to tell me!" Rainbow said "Yes and I'll do it when the test starts" Twilight said "Are you done now?" A voice asked After asking, the five turned around in shock as they saw somebody approaching making Rainbow bow and Amber smile while the other three got confused
