Chapter 2: A Fresh Start

'Previously on The Unexplainable Adventure go and read Chapter 1: A New Adventure first to catch up, Robert and Zoey got sucked into a portal to a whole new world. Robert met Princess Celestia from her doomed future, she told Robert everything from her past that its slowly fading away so he promised to help her save everyponies future after a request was made for Robert, both Robert and Zoey now face the beginning to the end.'

"So, what now?" asked Zoey as he looked at Robert curiously, Robert looked back and shrugged.

"I don't have a clue Zoey, I guess we can ask around?" he replied nervously.

"But Robert, this is the past. We can't just simply ask everyone what's going on." Robert walked toward a village as Zoey followed him.

"Relax Zoey, what's the worse that could happen when they see us? A paradox? Gimme a break, you know we don't exist here right?" Robert's reply shocked him a bit going over his statement as if Robert knew he was going to ask him.

"Uh, yeah. But what if-"

"There is no what if Zoey, nobody knows us here." They walked in the village as Robert began to wave his hoof at some townsfolk while Zoey felt a little discomfort.

"You really think you should be waving at them?" he whispered, as some townsfolk waved back at Robert.

"It doesn't hurt to greet everyone Zoey, don't be shy. Plus if anyone asks what are you, just say I'm a griffon."

"Y-Yeah, alright." he replied nervously.

"Good let's spread out and see what's going on alright buddy? I'll meet you back here or at that candy house over there." he pointed at a candy looking building as Zoey got a little scared at the thought of Robert never returning.

"I guess the candy house is alright, where are you going?"

"I'm gonna ask on the right, go ask the left ok? Alright see you in a bit." Robert ran off too the far right of the village as Zoey walked to the left side of the village. Robert approached a pony with a minty colored hairstyle.

"Hello, what's going on here?"

"What do you mean?" Replied the anonymous pony.

"Oh sorry, I meant to ask was is there anything going on here today?"

"Well, there is an event later today called The Summer Sun celebration."

"A Summer Sun celebration?"

"What? You never heard of it?"

"Well no, I did just move here."

"Oh, well welcome. Check it out later, its a really important event for Princess Celestia herself." Robert laughed nervously.

"You don't say? I'll be sure to go to it when I get the time."

"Alright, I like you. We should hang out sometime."

"Yeah, just don't make it weird alright? My name is Robert by the way." she rose her hoof at him.

"The names Colgate, please to meet you Robert." Robert pressed his hoof against hers and shook hooves together letting go afterwards.

"Colgate huh? I'll have to get used to that name."

"You seem new around here, but me and my friends will give you a tour if you want."

"I'd be glad to get a tour around here, but can I bring my friend along?"

"Sure! Is he with you?"

"Well no, I told him to meet me at that candy house over there." Robert pointed at a candy looking building again.

"Oh! That's Sugar Cube Corner, the place for all you delicious needs."

"Oh. Well, I'll go get him." he ran back to Sugar Cube Corner.

"He sure does look funny when he's on his hind hooves." she trotted off, Robert accidentally bumped into Zoey and tripped on him. They both got up.

"What was that for?" Zoey asked.

"Sorry buddy, I found out what's going on." They walked to Sugar Cube Corner and stood at the entrance.

"So, I talked to this pony named Colgate. I know weird name but that doesn't matter. She told me that there's an event later today called The Summer Sun celebration, maybe the princess put us here to make sure everything is exactly how it should be."

"Well that's good news, but I'm having second thoughts on this Summer Sun celebration thing."

"Well, one way to find out."

"Did she say what time?"

"No, all she said was later today."

"So, we wait?"

"It looks like it, if they all leave to the same area that's when we follow them."

"Eh, I'm still having second thoughts on this."

"Aw c'mon Zoey, it'll be fine. As long as we're here let's just show some respect alright?"

"Oh alright."

"Good boy." Robert smiled and stroked his hoof on Zoey's neck. As hours went by everyone trotted towards what looked like a city hall.

"C'mon Zoey, let's follow them." they started to follow everyone but a scroll appeared in front of them.

"Is this suppose to be here?" Zoey asked and grabbed it.

"I don't Zoey, maybe the princess sent it." Zoey opened the scroll holding for Robert.

"Huh." it said 'Before this event begins, make sure it goes exactly like it should. My past sister struggles with her evil self called Nightmare Moon, you must not face her unless she carries a different path of evil. Only interfere when the time is right, follow your instincts.' they both looked at each other in confusion as the scroll disappeared before their eyes.

"What exactly are we looking for Robert?"

"Something that seems off than normal, c'mon Zoey let's go." they walked inside and stood at the very right of the room looking at a white pony with purple curly mane.

"Robert, I'm scared." Robert stroked his hoof on Zoey's neck.

"Relax buddy, it's alright."

"Ladies and gentlecolts! I present to you, Princess Celestia!" the pony said as the curtains opened, everyone gasped as Robert looked concerned.

(Was this supposed to happen?) Robert thought and looked at a group of ponies.

"Something isn't right Robert, is this right?"

"I'm not sure, let's go outside." screams were heard as they looked at a puff of smoke surrounded the room and out came adark creature that looked similar to Princess Celestia.

"Robert?"

"That's her sister? Nightmare Moon?"

"Robert, what do we do?"

"Zoey, calm down alright? Don't panic."

"But, everyone else is doing it."

"Just don't get her attention alright?"

"Easier said than done." Nightmare Moon floated out the entrance in a puff of smoke as Robert and Zoey ran after it but stopped after it disappeared.

"Oh great, we lost her." Robert said as he panted

"Well, maybe those ponies over there know where to look." Zoey said and pointed at a group of ponies behind them.

"Well then, alright. Why not?" they both quietly followed the group to a big tree house and Robert climbed to a nearby window to see what was going on as Zoey slowly climbed to him to see as well.

"What are they saying Robert?"

"Shh, Something about the elements of harmony and they think Nightmare Moon went to place called the everfree forest."

"Well, let's get to it before they do."

"No Zoey, we let them go first then we follow them." The group of ponies trotted towards the forest giving them ahead start then Robert and Zoey followed them.

"Where do you think these elements are?"

"How should I know? All I know is that Celestia said these ponies and the elements are crucial to their future, so our job is to make sure everything goes exactly how it should be."

"What if?"

"There is no what if Zoey, we're going to fix this, all of it."

"Still, I'm a little uneasy."

"Quick, hide." they approached the group and hid behind trees hoping they didn't see them.

"Who's there?" one of them asked but Robert signaled Zoey to stay put and don't say a word, trotting could be heard as one of them slowly trotted towards Robert's hiding spot worried that Robert may mess up the timeline if either of them got exposed. Robert sighed.

"Come out." one of them shouted and so Robert decided to step out of of his hiding spot so did Zoey.

"I know, you weren't expecting this but, we're here to help all of you." Robert said rubbing his head nervously.

"Well don't be sneaking about like that." the orange pony said.

"Yeah, sorry."

"Who are you guys anyway?" shouted the blue pony.

"I'm Robert and this is Zoey."

"Well this was a nice meet up and all but, we still need to find the elements of harmony."

"Lead the way captain." Robert smiled as the blue pony fell on her back laughing.

"I didn't think it was that funny." Robert chuckled and out came a lion from a bush but it had a black aura surrounding it.

"A lion? Wait, something feels off." Robert looked at it confused, it wasn't just the lion that seemed off to him but it was the air. He felt something but it was faint, he shook it off, charged at the lion, and shoved it back a foot.

"Your target is me, all of you stay back." Robert knew he felt something, it was so evil that mercy doesn't exist in them. Zoey stood beside him as the beast snarled like a wild animal and scratched Robert's left cheek but, it didn't hurt him like it was nothing. He felt where he got scratched, he felt nothing on his cheek. As the ponies watched the fight Robert punched its chest, once his hoof made contact to the chest the impact was too great it knocked it back a few feet and left everyone shocked even Robert himself. The trees fell on it but got back up after that, it charged at him and this time he kicked it back just like he did with his hoof it knocked it back again, Robert was so surprised he had this power but at the same time he didn't like it very much, he thought that this wasn't his strength compared to how many times he trained in his own world. It got back up again and Robert and Zoey both held it back.

"How did you do that Robert?" Zoey asked as they struggled to held it back.

"I'll answer later, we got to get this thing to calm down." a yellow pony trotted to it and pulled a stick out of its paw and the black aura vanished, both Robert and Zoey let it go as the creature licked the yellow pony's mane.

"Well that did something." said Robert as he scratched his head confused and looked at his hoof.

"Something wrong?" Zoey asked.

"Well, this strength isn't mine compared to our world."

"What world?" one of the ponies asked and Zoey punched Robert's head.

"Idiot, don't you have a brain?" Zoey asked shaking his paw at Robert.

"Uh, well now that you mention it I guess I don't. But you didn't had to hit me like that." Robert said as a big bump appeared on his head with a derpy face.

"Whatever, lets just finish this so we can go home." Zoey said.

"Right, where do we go again?" Robert asked and looked at the ponies.

"I'm sorry, we? Nopony could've done what you did, not even earth ponies. What are you?" said Applejack as Robert chuckled at her.

"I'm a friend." Robert smiled at them.

"Yeah, I don't trust you." Rainbow said, both Robert and Zoey fell on their face in shock and got up.

"You gotta be kidding me right? We saved your plots from the lion just now, if we haven't arrived you would've been dead." Robert point his hoof at Rainbow Dash puffing steam.

"Whatever, I would've handled it myself." Rainbow said showing off like a shiny tool.

"Why you little-" Zoey punched Robert again and Robert got up.

"Will you quit it?!" Robert shouted at Zoey.

"Gez, you're such a child. We need to progress than settle with them." Rainbow made a face at them getting both Robert and Zoey mad.

"Would y'all cut it out?! Twilight where do we go?" said Applejack as they all froze.

"Well, we need to find the elements of harmony thats just ahead." said Twilight as they all trotted down the path,

"You know something Zoey? I'm pretty sure this adventure we got into might be something we never had, if theres more corruption in this world we might need training if its this bad." said Robert.

"Come to think of it, how can we stop all of this? We know nothing of what these ponies know yet we're trying to fix this." said Zoey, Robert pat his head and smiled at him.

"I don't know if you know this buddy, but I'm that kind of friend that just won't give up on everyone." said Robert as he slowly followed the six ponies.

"I'll keep pushing forward to where everyone else would've quit, I don't care if I'm not good enough." said Robert as Zoey followed him.

"Brave or not Robert It's suicide, theres alot more options than knocking out your foes." said Zoey as Robert walked backwards looking at him.

"I understand that, but not all ideas go well, if there's one thing I know and believe is to just keep pushing forward no matter what." said Robert turned around seeing a blue sea creature with yellow hair, but there was that feeling again and so Robert jumped in front of them facing it as both Zoey and Rainbow Dash sided with him.

"Rainbow, just stand back." said Robert as Rainbow Dash flew up and kicked its face making it angry and flicked her against a tree, Robert got mad and
