The Lost Elements

by SpaghettiPie


An Awkward Meeting

The unicorn from last night, mostly known as Twilight, trotting across a grassy land with dirt paths covering like snow on a field. She was moving closer to an extremely beautiful building, planted with decor and divinity and dignity.

Inside the building, beautiful and bright, was a pure white unicorn, with a lovely shade of dark purple; almost blue, mane. Curled around and to match her lovely tail, with a mark of three diamonds. She was looking up at many lines and shades of colors, almost everyone of a rainbow. They didn’t match her literal rainbow dress, which was designed perfectly to match a rainbow, then dropped with a cloud at the very end.

The white unicorn was talking, but Twilight couldn’t hear or see who this beauty was talking to. Twilight walked closer to the building and tapped on the door lightly, snorting slightly. “Rarity doesn’t usually have a customer around this time.” She muttered softly to herself. “Rarity, I’m here to tell you about the book, I think it involves the elements.” Twilight called out, she wasn’t afraid to either.

It was a proven fact that everyone around this pony town that they were two of the elements of harmony, the only heroes found apart of this. This had the violet unicorn thinking, now.

What if this book is suggesting there is going to be an Anti-Element, Twilight started, looking at the door slowly. that would only mean we need to put up another fight! Will they come to us, though?

The door opened slowly, and the white unicorn, Rarity, opened her eyes with a smile. “Oh, Twilight! Have you met my new friend? Oh! She just came in Ponyville this night and she was just so exhilarated to meet you! I told her all about our journeys about saving the world and she was just so interested.” She laughed, opening her door widely and waving her hoof to welcome Twilight in the house.

“Well, thats nice, Rarity, but,”

“Her name is Quicksilver. She’s a scientist, I thought you’d like her.” Rarity pointed her hoof towards a silvery unicorn with bright metallic grey hair. She had almost white eyes, but they were a dark shade of blue.

Twilight perked her ears and smiled. “A Scientist? What do you study?” Twilight had been distracted from her question and looked at the metallic pony.

Quicksilver smiled softly. “Twilight Sparkle, asking me what I study. I study weather. People say its because I look like rain pouring on a roof,” this statement was very true, and Twilight nodded gently. “others say its because I look like the stuff inside the thermometer.” She looked at her hoofs, which were dressed in pale pink shoes with gems on the tip.

Rarity smiled softly and poked her face a bit. “I’m making her a mannequin. She has a very nice look to her, and isn’t she just right about looking like rain?” Quicksilver blushed a bit and looked down at the ground.

Quicksilver’s mane dropped in her face. It was very bright, indeed, and had few curls. It was down and looked like tidal waves dropping down, even with the little amount of curls. It went to her knees and was very like, and had matched her tail exactly.

“Rarity just likes to compliment me for my shine. I actually wear glasses, its really difficult to see right now, but being a model for Rarity, I guess its worth a shot. Generosity indeed.” Quicksilver started, waving her hoof slowly. She looked over at Rarity, who was folding together another pink rod of color.

“Pink is just the perfect color for her,” the snowy unicorn laughed happily. “I just love how her mane makes the color glow. Once people see this advertisement, they’ll be in awe. Quicky, do you have any friends that glow?”

“No, sorry, Rarity.” Quicksilver giggled a bit. “As long as I stay in Ponyville, though, I will gladly be a model.”

“You’re leaving?” Twilight flicked her ear softly and sat down near the two other unicorns, who were dressing up and preparing with make-up. “Where to?”

“Dunno, Twilight. I guess maybe Canterlot.” Quicksilver sighed sharply. She seemed to be slowing down and getting tired of dressing up, Rarity quickly flicked her ears up.

“Quicksilver, Twilight said something about a meeting, you can probably help?” Rarity smiled softly, tilting her head and looking patient as she took off Quicksilver’s shoes.

“Rarity, that would be a delight, but is it okay with Twilight is my concern. Knowing about all that element stuff, I’m sure you don’t want some silly old science pony trotting about in your business.” Quicksilver snorted impatiently, looking at Rarity and then at Twilight. “I’ve only been here not even a day, I don’t think I’d understand.”

“Nonsense, Quicksilver!” Rarity bursted loudly before Twilight could respond with a usual quick retort and drag Rarity along with her. “You would understand enough. I’ve told you just about everything and I would hope that you can understand, knowing how much I do.”

Quicksilver coughed softly and then pointed her hoof, now free of the ballet slipper, at Twilight. Twilight was smiling sincerely.
“Quicksilver is right, Rarity. We shouldn’t take her, besides this is something only the elements can know about.” Twilight’s horn started to glow softly and out of her saddle bag she pulled a large leather-bound book with golden text. “It’s important for us and only us, being Pinkie, A.J., Rainbow and Flutter Shy.”

Rarity moaned softly, flipping her mane back and nodding. “Are we going to meet at the library, I have to finish Quicksilver’s outfit first and I can walk there anyways.” She pulled her hoof out from under her and waved it in the air in front of her face.

“We will be meeting in the library,” Twilight started softly then looked over at Quicksilver softly. “sorry for keeping so much information from you. That outfit does look great on you, though.” Twilight brought the book back in her bag and then nodded.

Quicksilver shook her head. “Its certainly alright, Twilight. It has been nice meeting you, however and hope to meet you soon again.” She muttered shortly as Rarity came over with a girdle, ready to be tightened to make her look thin.

Twilight snickered and nodded. “Have fun!” She called out before opening the door with her magic and leaving. Opal, a pure white cat, swatted at the unicorn’s tail as she left.
