"Rainbow Dash!!! That's not funny!!!" Twilight yelled. Up above a cyan Pegasus was sitting on a storm cloud laughing hysterically. Twilight's tail was now singed thanks to a prank by the cyan prankster.
"Lighten up Twi!! It was only a joke..." Rainbow Dash said trying to hold back more laughing. Twilight wasn't amused though. Usually she would shrug off such a childish prank but this was the fifth time its happened to her today. Twilight glared at Rainbow.
"Don't you have work to do? isn't there suppose to be a storm today?" Twilight said with an impatient tone in her voice. Dash kicked her hoof and groaned.
"Darn it!!! I totally forgot!!!" Dash said as she flew out the window. Twilight breathed a sigh of relief. This was more her style... peace and quiet. With Spike being in Canterlot on royal business, Twilight had the whole library to herself. She picked up a book and began to read it. Twilight had only begun to read when a frantic knock came at her door. Twilight groaned and placed her book down on the table next to her and went to answer the door.
"Who is it?" Twilight asked. All of a sudden the door flew open and a pink mare was on top of Twilight. Pinkie Pie.
"TWILIGHT!!! We need you help!! something is wrong with Fluttershy we think she's sick but we cant tell cause she wont talk!!! You just gotta help us, you just gotta!!!" Pinkie said franticly. Twilight was worried. Usually you can't understand A word Pinkie says, but she seemed really flustered about this. Twilight nodded and Pinkie breathed a sigh of relief.
"Oh thank you thank you thank you!!!!" Pinkie said as she squeezed the air out of Twilight's lungs. Twilight gave a weak smile.
"N-no P-problem...." Twilight said as she tried to catch her breath. When Pinkie let Twilight go they trekked to Fluttershy's cottage. When they got there Twilight noticed that all her friends were there. Rainbow dash, Applejack, Rarity, and Fluttershy, only she was on the ground shaking violently. Twilight felt as though she was going to be sick. She has never seen her friend like this before.
"C'mon now sugar cube why are y'all so shaky?" Applejack asked the now cowering Fluttershy. Fluttershy said nothing and just stared blankly shaking like a leaf in the mid august wind. Twilight couldn't take it anymore and rushed over to her friend. Before Twilight could say a word Rarity chimed in.
"Darling please tell us what's wrong. Your scaring us..." Rarity said with concern. Fluttershy looked up at Twilight and grabbed her. Twilight was shocked but was silent.
"W--W-ww-were...D--dd-d-dd-d-doomed...Our bb-b-b-bb--blood will s--sss-sstain the streets...." Fluttershy said with a shaky and eerie voice. The five other ponies grimaced.
"What in the hay does that mean? Y'all get any of that?" Applejack said franticly. Everypony was silent. The silence was broken by A loud Bang.
"Here it comes!! all my hard work!!!" Dash said with confidence. As always Rainbow Dash was arrogant but that never hid her flaws. The five other ponies helped Fluttershy back into her cottage and went their separate ways. On the way back to the library fluttershy's words crept up on Twilight. What did she mean by we were all doomed? Twilight shrugged it off and tried to get to sleep she was very tired and the days sun was slowly creeping behind the clouds. Just as Twilight was about to fall asleep a loud crash was heard outside. Twilight rushed over to her window to see what it was and was faced with A blinding white light that shot her across the room. Twilight yelped as she hit the wall behind her. Fear went through her like a wildfire. Twilight stood up and ran for the door only to be met with the sadistic grin of Celestia.
"Pr-Princess Celestia? what in the heck?" Twilight said with fear in her voice. Celestia grinned and evil and sickening grin. Her eyes were no longer hers... they were black as night her mane was blood red and she was white as a ghost.
"Time to finally pay for your mishaps Twilight!!" Celestia said before vanishing into thin air leaving behind five necklaces... the Elements of harmony.. only the gems in the middle were black as the night sky. Twilight ran outside only to be met with a sight that shook her to the core. Ponies were lying on the ground dead. Among the dead were the students at Cheerilee's school. Twilight rushed over to a now dead Scootaloo and tried to bring her back... to no avail. Everypony within her vicinity was dead. Twilight fell to her knees and cried. How could the princess do such a thing to this beautiful place? Suddenly the Elements began to glow red and they attached themselves onto Twilight's body. She looked at the elements and tried to get them off to no avail. Twilight stopped fighting and sat on her haunches crying. She sat there as tears fell from her eye. Twilight knew what she had to do. She had to tell her friends. Twilight checked all around ponyville for a sign that her friends were still alive. Twilight found nothing... her friends were gone. All she could do was cry. Her tears fell faster then the rain. Twilight could only watch as the storm blew over and the ponies around her fell dead. No sounds were heard by her... only the sound of her cries filled the nighttime air. That and another sick laughter heard from behind her. It was Celestia.
"How could you!!!! you monster!!!" Twilight yelled at the now crazed princess. Celestia's eyes burned with fire and hatred towards her former student. A fearful feeling crept up on Twilight.
"Foal...I did this cause I'm sick of this place!! Nopony gives me the respect I deserve!!! so I thought I would return the favor..and now you and your little elements are useless..." Celestia said before she struck Twilight with her hoof. Twilight yelped in pain and started to shake. Before she could stand and fight back Celestia was gone. Leaving the last words she spoke flowing through Twilight's mind. Fear was instantaneous. It was all clear to Twilight. She had to find her friends and stop Celestia. The question is how? Twilight shook the feeling of fear away and stood up.
"I have to stop her... If it's the last thing I do I will find my friends and stop her!!" Twilight said to herself before rushing out the door certain that she will find them before all of tartarus breaks loose.
