MLP-Harmonics: Legacy pt. 22
In the middle of the Crystal Mountains the group is awakened by Spike screaming at the appearance of an odd hooded pony in the middle of their makeshift camp, seeing the figure Rainbow Dash charges at it revealing a straight haired Pinkie Pie staring seriously at the group.
“Pinkie, what’re ya’ll doing?” Applejack asks curiously.
“Pinkie are you okay?” Fluttershy asks her curiously.
Pinkie Pie, doesn’t respond with to their inquires, but instead rushes past the group into the cave behind them.
“Hey Pinkie, wait up.” Rainbow Dash says rushing after her.
The group then quickly follows behind her into the caves.
Inside the caves Rainbow Dash chases Pinkie Pie, before managing to tackle her and pin her to the ground.
“Pinkie Pie, what’s wrong with you?” Rainbow Dash asks Pinkie Pie curiously.
As she’s pinned an odd mist begins to emerge from Pinkie Pie’s body and soon the mist jumps onto Rainbow Dash encompassing her.
A minute later the group searches around the caves looking for the pair.
“Guys this cave is creepy.” Spike says scared.
“Come on Spike, don’t be so scared.” Applejack says berating Spike. “Look even Fluttershy isn’t scared.” Applejack says pointing to Fluttershy.
“Oh, I’m terrified, but I don’t want to leave my friends behind.” Fluttershy says slightly shacking.
“That’s just what I like about you Fluttershy.” Discord says appearing above the group.
“Discord, where have you been?” Rarity asks Discord Curiously.
“I was napping in a nearby tree; it was quite relaxing until a loud baby dragon woke me up with his screaming.” Discord says answering her.
“Oh, shut up I was just surprised.” Spike says embarrassed.
“Guys, be quite I hear something.” Twilight says silencing the group.
As the group stop they hear odd footsteps approaching them, before they notice Pinkie Pie standing in front of them.
“There’s Pinkie, but where’s Rainbow?” Applejack asks curiously.
Soon Rainbow Dash comes and crashes into Rarity.
“Rainbow Dash, what’re you doing?” Rarity asks annoyed by Rainbow Dash’s actions.
Soon an odd mist emerges from Rainbow Dash and starts to surround Rarity.
“Twilight, that mist.” Spike says looking at the mist.
“Rarity!” Twilight screams out at the sight.
Soon the mist dissipates and Rainbow Dash gets off Rarity, who soon stands up, and soon the trio starts to encircle the others.
“Twilight, what’s going on?” Fluttershy asks scared.
“That mist, must be a part of the Nightmare Shroud, I think it’s possessing them.” Twilight says observing things.
“Looks like we need a distraction.” Discord says snapping his finger and turning into a bright light bulb.
The light from the light bulb blinds the possessed trio and when the light fades the others are nowhere to be seen.
A minute later somewhere else inside the cave Twilight and the others arrived in a blast of magical energy, with Twilight falling over tired.
“Teleporting that many people is exhausting.” Twilight says breathing heavily.
“Twilight, what’s going on?” Applejack asks curiously.
“Yes, you said something about them being possessed?” Fluttershy asks curiously.
“Well, that mist is similar to the mist that was around the Changeling’s tunnels when King Sombra escaped with Trixie, remember that dark force I felt when I tried a locator spell to find Pinkie Pie, I’m guessing that was it.” Twilight says explaining things.
“Anyway, what’re we going to do?” Applejack asks curiously.
“Well, if they haven’t turned into nightmare’s then they can’t be fully possessed, didn’t some of the Changelings seem to break free temporarily because of the little Halfling brat.” Discord says thinking about things.
“So then it might act similar to Discord’s brainwashing spell.” Twilight says thinking about things.
“Yeah, let’s not talk about that.” Applejack says thinking about things.
“Okay then everyone, I have a plan, but we all need to be ready.” Twilight says beginning to explain things.
