//------------------------------// // The Calling of Destruction // Story: Transformers: Return of the Dark Spark // by DarkSkylynx //------------------------------// Chapter 3: The Calling of Destruction "That is the role I am meant to have in our world. The role I choose to have!" Princess Twilight Sparkle is an alicorn pony who represents the Element of Magic. Once a unicorn, Princess Twilight Sparkle transformed into an alicorn after completeing an unfinished spell. After defeating the evil Tirek, Twilight obtained her own castle and embraced her role as the Princess of Friendship. She once fought beside Optimus Prime and the Autobots twice with her friends before they disappeared into the black hole. ___________________________________________________________________________________________ Twilight Sparkle was sound asleep in her bed at her castle. Even though she had been sleeping in it for almost a year, the young alicorn felt like it was still brand new to her. As she laid there on her back with her wings spread out wide, she dreamed about how she had gotten that ginormous castle which was placed smack-dab in Ponyville: the town she had been living in for quite some time. It was right after she had her little song about her desire to find that part she was meant to play in Equestria. Of course she had a little help with it from the other Princesses of Equestria: Princess Celestia, Princess Luna, and her very own sister-in-law Princess Cadance. She remembered the morning where Celestia and Luna informed her that Tirek: the evil centaur of the past had escaped his prison in Tartarus and was beginning to steal magic from ponies all across the land. Although she was more than happy to help the three of them stop the villain, she was disappointed when Celestia sent Discord, her enemy-turned-ally to stop him. She also remembered deciding to go to the Castle of the Royal Pony Sisters to catch up on her reading and being trailed by her Spike, her faithful assistant and her friends who were also the Elements of Harmony: Powerful relics that maintain peace like her. There was Applejack, an apple farming earth pony that represented the Element of Honesty, Fluttershy, a pegasus pony who cared for animals and represented the element of Kindness, Pinkie Pie, an Earth pony who was mysterious yet loved to throw parties for everyone and represented the Element of Laughter, Rarity, a unicorn who designed clothes to wear and represented the Element of Generosity, and Rainbow Dash, a brash pegasus pony who loved to race and boast about herself who also represents the Element of Loyalty and herself represented the Element of Magic. Just before they got there, they were greeted by Discord who after taunting them with his ‘important’ duty, reminded them that they still haven’t opened the chest at the Tree of Harmony and left them the diary that had been writing in for the past few months before his departure. After reading it, Twilight realized that in all the adventures she and her friends had had, her five friends had to live up to their respective elements at a time and in return, were given something by somepony else. Rarity was given a spool of rainbow thread from a designer named Coco Pommel, Rainbow Dash was given a badge from Spitfire, captain of the Wonderbolts, Pinkie got a rubber chicken named Boneless from Cheese Sandwich, a party planner, Fluttershy got a flower from Seabreeze, a Breezie and Applejack got a bit from an actor named Silver Shill. After realizing that these are the keys to the chest, Twilight received a message from Celestia and flew to Canterlot. There, she learned that Discord had joined Tirek and were beginning to steal more magic from pegasus and earth ponies. Fearing that Tirek would come for alicorn magic, she reluctantly agreed to harness the magic from the other three ponies for Tirek did not know about her status as Princess. While she tried to manage her powers and keep it a secret from her friends, she came face-to-face to Tirek, who destroyed her house again and engaged her in a fight. In the end, Tirek offered her friends, including Discord, for her magic. She agreed and to her surprise, Discord revealed Tirek betrayed him and gave her the necklace Tirek gave him. Realizing this was her key, the six ponies, Spike and Discord went back to the Tree of Harmony and opened the chest, giving them the strength to defeat Tirek and return everything to normal. In addition, the chest planted itself in the middle of Ponyville and grew into a tree-shaped castle. Her castle. It was then she realized she was meant to spread friendship throughout the land of Equestria. She was happy that she and her friends won and Discord was no longer THAT evil, but deep down she was sad. She wasn’t sad that her home was destroyed again, first by Bruticus and then by Tirek. She was sad because THEY weren’t here to see it. The Autobots from Cybertron: Ratchet, Warpath, Ultra Magnus, Arcee, Blurr, Hot Rod, Kup, Springer, Perceptor, Jetfire, Silverbolt, Air Raid, Slingshot, Skydive, Fireflight, Blaster, Wheeljack, Sideswipe, Slug, Snarl, Swoop, Ironhide, Jazz, Cliffjumper, Grimlock, Bumblebee, and last but her favorite: Optimus Prime. They gave their lives to save Equestria from Megatron, his Decepticons, and King Sombra. Even though it was right to let him go, she missed Optimus greatly. She remembered after her coronation, she went down to the stature garden with her friends which dedicated both the Autobots and Decepticons from the planet Cybertron. She went to Optimus Prime’s statue and wished that he was here to see her achievement the way she would sometimes wish she was there for his. Her friends also knew that it would mean the world to her if they went with her to pay their respects to the Autobot leader. Twilight also remembered going there again to tell him about the amazing adventures they had as if he could still hear her from the heavens. Now that she was alone in her bed with Spike snoring loudly, she was dreaming what I would have been if the Autobots were still here. Her dreams were unfortunately cut short when she heard a noise outside. She groggily opened her eyes and walked over to window. When she reached the window, she looked up at the sky and gave out a huge gasp that woke Spike up. “Huh? What’s going on Twilight?” the baby dragon asked. “Sorry I woke you up Spike, but you have to see this!” Twilight exclaimed. Spike walked over to the window and just like Twilight, he gave out a loud gasp. High in the sky was a huge portal colored purple. As Twilight and Spike stared at the portal, they noticed a ship fly out. They also noticed a bunch of figures on the ship. Before they could wonder what those figures were, ship manages to throw them all off and into a nearby forest before flying away. After a moment of silence, Spike asked Twilight “What in the name of Celestia was that?!” “I don’t know Spike. But we’re going to find out soon.” Twilight stated. The two of them then went back to bed. But with all the newly spurred questions in their minds, they couldn’t fall asleep.
