//------------------------------// // Three - The Lost Ponies // Story: Fractured Fairy Tails: Peter Dash // by Unknown Tale //------------------------------// Twilight and Shining Star looked around to see if anypony was with them. They could hear ten ponies talking to each other. "Who are those two? Lost ponies? No. I think that one is a Twilight Sparkle! The Twilight? Yes. So cool! Should we greet them! Let's surprise them. I think they can hear you nine. Yeah, you're right..." Twilight Sparkle finally said, "Anypony there?" The ten lost ponies said in unison, "Yes." "Why don't you come out?" "We are not sure about your visitors." Suddenly, Apple Bloom walked over to them in a cat outfit. "Lost Pony Bloom at your service Twilight Sparkle!" The other nine suddenly appear as different animals. A lion, tiger, bear (oh my), fox, rabbit, deer, wolf, pigeon, and a hedgehog. In the same order, they were Fluttershy, Derpy Hooves, Lyra, Scootaloo, Sweetie Belle, young Celestia, Sunset Shimmer, Vinyl Scratch, and Coco Pommel. "We are the Lost Ponies of Neverland," Sunset Shimmer said. "Who's the other pony?" "Name's Shining Star." "You look like a brave knight," Vinyl said. Shine blushed because he was just an apprentice at the moment. He always had dreams of being Twilight's royal guard. "If you need any help, just..." "ATTENTION!" The ten lost ponies saluted as Rainbow Dash flew to them. "As you were." The lost ponies stopped. "I see you met Twilight Sparkle and Shining Star." "You lead an army of ten?" Twilight asked. "How else was I supposed to get my Element of Harmony back?" Rainbow replied. "There is so much to be done everypony. We should be 20% faster with this if we speed up." "Why don't we go hunting for Rhinos?" Scootaloo suggested. "No, maybe griffons," Derpy and Lyra said together. "Okay. I'll show Twilight Merpony Lagoon. Shining Star, you'll be a temporary First Mate until I find Lost Pony Armor." "Okay Rainbow Dash." "FORWARD MARCH!" Young Celestia commanded as she led the lost ponies into the savannah of Neverland. Twilight Sparkle and Rainbow Dash flew off together. Shining Star walked next to Vinyl Scratch. "So where are we going?" "Ever since we were formed, Redpony fought a fun battle with us. Sometimes he wins, sometimes we win. We are certain he'll be in the Savannah." "Is that why we are marching double file while Derpy is playing the snare drum?" "Yes it is." Shining Star sighed and then said, "So, should I wait on the outskirts?" "It would be safe for you since you are not used to 11 pony wars." "Yeah. It would be best for that." I think Twilight wouldn't let me fight against anypony unless it is an emergency... They made it to the Savannah before they knew it. Shining Star flew into a tree to be safe. The other ten marched on. Once they saw a feather fall onto the ground, Young Celestia said, "CHARGE!" The ten raced to where the indians were. A huge battle was fought with a lot of magic, wind slices, and back leg kicks. Shining Star couldn't help but watch the entire fight. Once everypony was captured except Young Celestia and the other leader, who looked like Gilda, Shine went over to them and said, "What in Equestria is going on!?" Gilda then said, "The Leader of the Indians would like Princess Tiger Luna. WHERE IS SHE!?" "I don't know," Celestia said, worried. "Alright then, we'll make a deal. If she's back before the time you lower the sun, we will all eat steak. If not, your friends will meet a bad fate." Shining Star quickly flew off to Rainbow Dash and Twilight Sparkle. Celestia growled at Gilda. "How dare you put the blame on me. This isn't over." Celestia walked off. She thought of a plan to keep day alive until Luna is returned. She chuckled under her breath as the other nine lost ponies eagerly await Luna's return. Where could she be?
