Where am I?

Found

While Michael was coming to in the thicket, Luna was with the guards at the edge of the forest he had gone into. “You're sure this where he went in?” She asked the Unicorn.

“ Yes, I am sure” came the reply.

Luna looked into the forest before turning to the guards. “ If you find this creature, do not harm it. Simply subdue it. If we cause it anymore harm, it could die. It's leg has been damaged severely, so it won't be able to move quickly. Now fan out and keep your ears open and your eyes alert. I will circle from the air.” With that she took off, and began flying over the forested area.

The guards marched for over an hour before one called out. “Hey over here. I found something.”

Luna heard this and flew down to do investigate.

She landed a few feet away, and walked over to the guard. “ What is it soldier?” She asked.

The guard held up an something up with his magic. “ A bloody arrow. The creature must be close by.”

Luna stared at the arrow for a few moments before turning to the guards. “Fan out and search the area, we must find this creature.”

She was about to take flight again when she felt something. It was faint, but there was something she could sense. Fear.

She could feel it lingering in the air. Something was nearby, and it was very afraid. Luna alighted from the ground and flew over the canopy of the trees.

It was still there.

She could still feel it.

She scanned the trees for the source. She circled the area, a few more time, before noticing.

It had moved.

She followed the “trail” of fear, before coming to a stop in midair.

She had stopped over a large clearing a few hundred feet wide, and just as long. She saw a small creature running across the field. She could feel the fear radiating from it. She had found it.

She flew closer to get a better look at the creature when It stopped at the edge of the clearing, and turned. Presumably to see if it was being followed. It began to turn back when it stopped and looked to the sky.

She knew it had seen him, entering a midair dive flew as fast as she could towards it. It took a few steps back before sprinting into the woods, Luna following closely behind. The creature was quick despite it's injury. As she chased the creature, it began darting in between trees, trying to lose her.

Having flown for her whole life, she was incredibly agile, and had no problem following it. The creature realized this was not working and began running straight. This did not last long however. The creatures injured leg was giving out, and it tripped over a fallen branch.

She flew over to apprehend the creature, and saw it's head was badly cut by a rock that was half buried in the ground.

She looked down at it. A flash of concern clouding her thoughts.“ Just hold on. You'll be fine” She said the creature, not caring whether it could under. It met her eyes for a brief moment before falling unconscious.

She stared at the creature for a few seconds, before using her magic to lift it onto her back. She used some vines to secure it, so It wouldn't fall off while she was flying.

“ Just hang on. You will be fine I promise.” She whispered to the limp body, hanging from her back.

She took to the air, and flew over where the guards were still searching.

“ Guards! Fall back to the castle” She commanded using the Royal Canterlot Voice.

Luna turned and flew all the way back to her tower in the castle. She flew in from the window, and landed gently on the cold stone floor.

Using her magic she untied the vines, and and gently laid the creature onto her bed.

She yelled to one of the servants in the hall to send a carriage to ponyville for Twilight Sparkle and the the other elements of harmony immediately. The servant bowed and ran off to complete her task.

Luna went to her desk and began writing a letter

Twilight Sparkle

I need you and you're friend's to meet me here in the castle at once. A carriage has been sent, and will be waiting for you in town square In exactly 1 hour. I will explain more when you arrive.

Princess Luna


Using her magic the letter floated into the air, hung there momentarily, and disappeared.

Luna turned to the creature laying on her bed. She went to work putting some fresh bandages on it's wounds. When she had finished. She watched the creature for a few moments, before turning to the doors to await Twilight.

She opened the doors to her room and as she stepped out she turned and gave one last look to the injured creature on her bed.



I have really enjoyed writing this story so far. I want to give a big shout out to Pheonixashes and Ryanchopper12 for their help. I am taking a few day's to write more stories. I will hopefully have the next one out before December.
