The Journey to the Xenomorph Temple

Chapter 6: The Temple Exploration

Twilight, Shining Armor, Cadence, and the rest of the gang met up with Charming Thunder and Daring Do at the entrance of the Everfree Forest in the morning. "Is everypony ready?"

Everyone nodded and they started to walk through the forest.

A few hours later, Charming Thunder was looking at the map to make sure if they were going the right way or wrong way until he said, "Stop." Everyone stopped. "I don't even know if we are even going the right way or not."

Fluttershy flew up to Charming Thunder and tapped his shoulder and said, "Uhm, is that it?" She pointed to the temple that was described as it was said on the map.

"Eeyup," Applejack said surprisingly. "That's the place."

Fluttershy took a look at the statues. It was the creature that its tongue-mouth out as it looked like on the map. She then dashed off behind a nearest rock until Twilight used her magic to grab her tail to bring her back. "Don't worry, Fluttershy," Cadence said cheering her up. "They're just statues of the Xenomorph."

"Oh," Fluttershy said. "That's a relief."

"Twilight," Charming Thunder said. "Did you bring a camera with you so we can take a group photo before we go in the temple?"

"Here it is," Twilight replied when she levitated the camera out of her saddlebag. Everyone was getting to their position for a picture to be taken. Twilight was still levitating her camera while she was standing between Charming Thunder and Shining Armor. They then smiled for the camera as the camera made a flash. Twilight then puts the camera away in the saddlebag and Daring Do was examining the hieroglyphics of symbols of an ancient language at the entrance of the temple. Charming Thunder and the others then entered the temple. Torches inside were lit across the hall until they approached a treasure room which was filled with lots of different colored jewels.

Rarity was so excited when she saw those jewels she started to run to a pile until Charming Thunder shouted, "Rarity!" She then froze at the very spot she was running. "You can grab as many jewels as you can after we find the room which contains the egg."

"Oh, alright," Rarity replied in an upsetting tone. She then rejoined the group and exited the room.

---------------------

"Stop," Daring Do said. "We need to watch our step from here because this spot is booby trapped. So don't step on a tile with a hole on it."

"Piece of cake," Rainbow Dash replied. "Me and Fluttershy can fly over those tiles. It will be ten seconds flat."

"Alright, Rainbow," Charming Thunder replied. "but you two be careful." Charming Thunder and the rest of the group carefully made their way across the room. Once they got to the other side, there was the room which had the egg. It is an organic capsule which contains the first stage of the Xenomorph called the Facehugger. "There it is. But be careful. Rumor has it that if you step close to the egg, it will open up and the Fachugger will pop out and jump on your face. Shining, levitate that empty saddlebag close to it while I use my magic to levitate the egg in the mag so that when it is in, the egg will not hatch." Shining Armor then levitated the bag and moved it close to the egg as far as he could. "Ok. Here we go."
