//------------------------------// // Elements of Harmony // Story: What you've got // by Broneyofnoel //------------------------------// Twilight ran to find Blueblood, and he was shocked beyond all to see her. She ran straight up to him. "Blueblood, you have to return to Canterlot!", Twilight yelled, "NOW!" "We don't have to," Blueblood said, trying to calm her down. "What, No, you have to!" Twilight said, pleading. "Why, and how are you alive?" Blueblood asked, he'd seen her die. "You want to know why! Celestia is stuck halfway between death and life, she sent me back, but you need to get to Canterlot and claim your throne, and then she will come back!" Twilight said, trying to hurry Blueblood to the door. "Celestia... I, I thought she was gone forever," Blueblood stopped, and he just stared, stared a thousand yard stare. "So did I, but we need to get to Canterlot and claim your throne," Twilight said, "You were next in line," "Twilight, I.." Blueblood started. "Come on Blueblood, we need to go," Twilight tried to push him. "I'm sorry Twilight, but i can't go back and release Celestia," Blueblood said, looking in Twilight's eyes. "Why not?" Twilight asked sadly. "Well, Twilight, I figure that you're about to die, so here it is, I tried to kill Celestia, not Nightmare, Nightmare only returned after I thought I killed her, and she took power," Blueblood said, he now had Twilight pinned. "Why, why'd you do that Blueblood?" Twilight was crying. "I wanted power, but I guess stuff happens," Blueblood said, his horn lighting up with magic. "Blueblood, please, don't do this, please!" Twilight pleaded, but Blueblood came ever closer to her with his magic. "STOP BLUEBLOOD!" Fluttershy walked in, brandishing a pistol. "So nice of you to join us Fluttershy, Twilight and i missed you," Blueblood said, casting a panicking Twilight to the side. "Blueblood, just stop okay?" fluttershy said, holding her pistol. "No, I am going to kill you and then I'm going to kill Twilight," Blueblood said, circling with Fluttershy. "No you're not," Fluttershy lunged at him, he threw her against a wall. "I killed Celestia, do you really think you can defeat me?" Blueblood asked, smiling. "You, you did," Fluttershy was shocked. "You're next," Blueblood lurched forward, kicking Fluttershy into a wall. "Pathetic, both of you," Blueblood, sneering. "What about all of us?" Applejack said, walking up with Pinkie Pie, Rarity, and Rainbow Dash. "You're dead!" Blueblood pointed a hoof at Applejack. "Nope, I was sent back, just like Pinkie Pie," Applejack pointed at Pinkie, who was smiling a calm smile. The floor started to rumble, and five circular stones appeared form the floor. They levitated when Twilight started. "Are those, they ARE, the elements of harmony!" Twilight screamed, happily. "No way, they can't be!" Blueblood screamed, he was suddenly losing. "Who do they go to?' Applejack asked. "Us, the first, Honesty, Applejack said, you couldn't tell a lie, even when you were mad at Fluttershy, the second, Loyalty, goes to Rainbow Dash, for helping the soldiers, and for helping me through the toughest of times," Twilight said, the rocks went over by Rainbow and Applejack. "The third, Joy, goes to Pinkie Pie, for the life before, and now, she is still smiling, the fourth, Kindness, goes to Rarity, for her attempt to save Pinkies life, and for kind acts for everypony," Twilight said, those two elements, levitated beside Rarity and Pinkie. "And the fifth, Generosity, goes to Fluttershy, she gave up all of her ties to the royals to come out here and help us," twilight said, all the elements shattered. "What, no," Twilight's eyes were wide, Blueblood was laughing. The elements re-materialized, and they formed necklaces, that clamped on the necks of the five, and a sixth one appeared. "The sixth, is mine, it the most powerful, yet it cannot act as one, is Magic," Twilight sadi, the stone formed into a crown. A large ball of white formed around the six, and a huge rainbow beam shot out at Blueblood, it burned through his coat, then his muscle, then his bones, they still heard the screams of him when the beam was gone. The six ponies fell back to the earth. Each lay where they fell. "What!" Twilight raised her head, looking over at a large black mark on the floor. "What happened?" twilight asked again. "You let me return," A large ball of yellow light appeared right where Blueblood was vaporized. Two large, white wings extended, and a large, whit horn extended, the flowing, multicolored hair appeared next. The last to appear were the Princess' eyes, Princess Celestia was back, and she was glowing with power. "Twilight Sparkle,I have returned, and you have saved me, I owe you my greatest thanks," Princess Celestia said, extending a hoof to Twilight. "Princess Celestia!" Twilight ran up to her, nuzzling her neck. "I missed you to Twilight," Celestia said. "Princess, these are my newest friends, the three dozen I had, they died,' Twilight said sadly. "What happened to them?" Celestia asked gravely. Twilight couldn't bring her self to expose Fluttershy, so she said. "Nightmare's assassin killed them," Celestia shed a single tear, and she looked at the ground. "These are my friends," Twilight said for two reasons, they were getting up, and that she wanted to change the subject. "Hello, my name is Applejack, she shook Celestia's hoof. "Hello," Celestia said. "My name is Rarity, i love your mane," Rarity said, shaking Celestia's hoof. "Hello," "My name is Pinkie Pie," Pinkie said, shaking Celestia's hoof. "Hi, name's Rainbow Dash," Rainbow Dash said, shaking Celestia's hoof. "Charmed." "And who are you little one?" Celestia nudged Fluttershy, "I, I, My name is Fluttershy," Fluttershy. "What's wrong," Celestia asked, holding Fluttershy's face. "I, I'm so sorry Princess, i WAS HER ASSASSIN!!!" Fluttershy SCREAMED. "NO FLUTTERSHY!" Twilight screamed, separating her and Celestia. "What, you, you were her assassin, you seemed so, so nice," Celestia said. "I changed," Fluttershy said sadly. "Well, then, If you truly have changed, take my hoof," Celestia said, holding Fluttershy didn't hesitate, she took Celestia's hoof, and they both disappeared. "Where'd they go..." Twilight said, flinching.
