Apes Here! Part 1
Guardian of the Everfree
Chapter 6
As Twilight was walking back to the library, something hit her. If the creature was injured, and was sapient like she thought it was, then it wouldn't stay in the Everfree. It would come to Ponyville to try something. Perhaps get something to clean the wound. Twilight racked her brain to try and think of the places it could hit.
There was the hospital. They're almost always stocked with a little disinfectant for races that don't respond to magic very well. But the creature seemed to be smart. It would know that hospitals are a difficult target. Almost every room would have a sick or injured pony in it. And this creature seemed to prefer indirect combat as opposed to direct. So it would probably try to sneak in, and avoid contact with ponies. But what happens if a pony sees it? Twilight shuddered at the thought.
Ponyville would be safe tonight. No creature was stupid enough to traverse the Everfree at night. If it was going to attack, it would have to do it during the day. If she remembered correctly, it had extremely small eyes. With eyes that small, it would never be able to see in the dark.
Twilight arrived at the Library. She walked in the front door and immediately called for Spike. Spike came calmly walking down the stairs. "What?" He asked, a little irritated that his comic book reading had been interrupted.
"Spike take a letter. "Dear Princess Celestia, as I'm sure you have recieved news of the ape that attacked me and than ran into the Everfree. The ape was armed with something that Equestria has never seen before. We have taken to calling it a firebow, as it seems to spit fire and operate like a bow. The ape had escaped into the Everfree, and we believe is now taking refuge in The Castle of the Two Pony Sisters. Rainbow Dash managed to find it today, as it was being attacked by a large pack of Diamond dogs. During this time it used three new firebows. The first one was used to take out three Diamond dogs. The second one was used to take out the rest of the pack as they cleared the bridge. It then used the one it used the one that was used on me to … make sure the dogs were taken out. However it appears as though then alpha had managed to somehow avoid the initial attack. Rainbow Dash says the alpha charged and tackled the ape, and the ape lost it's firebow. The ape was injured in the consequent hoof-to-hoof combat, but came out on top. He then produced a smaller but just as powerful firebow to make sure the alpha was taken out. It is my believe that the ape will come to Ponyville to try and gather medical supplies to treat it's wound. It seems to prefer avoiding, but is not afraid to resort to lethal force if it deems it necessary. I respectfully ask if you could come some where around nine tomorrow with a few extra guards? Perhaps your presence will scare it off. Sincerely, Your Faithful Student, Twilight Sparkle."
Spike rolled the letter up and used Dragonfyre on it. The letter dissapeared in a wisp of smoke and ash, flowing out the window. Twilight began to get things ready for bed when not even a minute later Spike burped a flame of green smoke and a letter appeared. Spike opened the letter and began to read.
"Dear Twilight Sparkle,
This is certainly troublesome indeed. My sister and I shall be over in Ponyville at nine o'clock tomorrow. We will bring a division of guards as well.
Sincerely,
Princess Celestia"
"Wow, this must be serious. The princesses are getting involved." Spike remarked. Twilight felt a bit more at ease now that she knew that the princesses were coming.
"Come on Spike, lets go to bed."

Celestia's sun had fallen and risen. Twilight was waking up at eight. As she woke up, she went through a mental checklist. She had cleared her schedule after getting confirmation that the princesses were coming. She was going to have to explain the situation to everypony, and she didn't want to explain more than once. She set out to gather the girls. She went to sugar cube corner. She knocked on the door and almost immediately a pink mare had the door open.
"Yeahyeahyeahyeahyeahyeahyeahyeahyeahyeahyeahyeahyeahyeah?"
Twilight took a moment to compose herself after Pinkie's vicious onslaught of yeahs.
"Pinkie, could you do me a favor and collect all the girls? Have them meet at the library in ten minutes?" Twilight asked.
"Suresuresuresuresuresuresuresuresuresuresuresuresuresuresuresuresure!" And with that Pinkie dissapeared.
"Is it me, or is Pinkie more hyper in the mornings?" Spike asked from his perch atop Twilight's back.
"I don't know, lets just get back to the Library."
(-)
Twilight was amazed at how quickly Pinkie had gathered the girls, as they were at the Library as she arrived. They were all asking questions, except for Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy, as she walked into the group and opened the door.
"Girls, I don't want to explain things twice, so sit down and wait for the princesses to arrive." Twilight stated.
They all sat down a bit begrudgingly and started talking while waiting for the princesses to arrive.
(-)
They had been speaking for about half an hour until the door opened.
"Presenting their Royal Majesties, Princess Celestia, Ruler of Equestria, Raiser of the Sun. And Princess Luna, Ruler of Equestria, Raiser of the moon." The Royal announcer spoke.
With the entrance done the two aforementioned princesses walked in. After exchanging formal and informal greetings they all sat down.
"Twilight Sparkle, please state thine worries." Luna spoke.
"Sister, you're slipping into the royal we again." Celestia warned.
" I apologize, tis difficult to get out of that habit."
"So, what was this about an ape attacking you, Twilight?"
After sending Spike up to his room, Twilight recounted everything that happened up to that point. Luna looked amazed at Twilight's description of firebows and Celestia looked like … well, Celestia.
"And you say that he battled an alpha Diamond dog in un-hooved combat?" Celestia asked.
"Well he had a knife, but otherwise, yeah." Rainbow Dash answered.
"I see. I do not believe we are dealing with an ape here. But we will have to do something about this." Celestia spoke.

YAY!!!
3826826
Eeyup.
The ponies perspective this time.
ok finish the chapter and the shortest on yet but good non the less
3826864
Thank ya very much.
3826867 no problem but it is a good chapter jut to let you now.
dang it, was hoping to see their perspective during his infiltration as well
3826881
Oh, no, this is just the first part.
Heh, I like this story.
Yet ANOTHER chapter posted! I applaud you good sir!
hey i dont care if its short as long as the time spent on it is reasonably represented by the length. if its a daily update like these have been i wouldn't mind it being under 2000. If it takes a month todo something like this i'm sure im not the only one that would be slightly peeved. also you can add that to the reasons i like this story. quick updates
not to mention this is a multiparter and if you do like you did when you did the previous chapter the next part will be out in the same day
that's also why i haven't done a story of my own... first of all my story takes about 5 chapters before ponies and then idk how fast i would update...
3827351
Thats good to know. You never did tell me what you thought of translation spells.
3827341
Thank you.
3827366 well assuming the crystals you were talking about were able to be worn as a necklace it seems like a very interesting idea. maybe have it so they have to be replaced or charged after a while (could be an interesting problem if it runs out and hes in the middle of being interrogated by something that hass captured him) another story im reading the human is a mage and jumped into fluttershy's mind and asked for the directions to her language (mind speak dont need language) jumped down a well and knew everything he needed to know about Equish. It was interesting but instant fixes are meh.
should be battled. it was in the past. there were a few other things. i'll start marking them as i go next chapter :P i wont notice everything but it might help grammar a little bit.
3827387
Aah, shit. Well thats what I get for typing on an Ipad.
I'll go fix it now.
3827408
good luck with that 
Need to add "bow" right after powerful.
Truth is I don't mind short chapters or slow updates so long as you don't just full out stop writing.
Now I'll eagerly await Princess Luna's ass whooping.
3827516
Fixed, fucking Ipad.
And Luna's ass whooping is coming.
Commander Shepard: Charge!
Magic smart box is best box!
3829273
I explained this somewhere, I don't remember where. I imagine it would be kind of difficult for even a human with 20/20 vision to spot their wings. I mean Fluttershy's wings are the same shade as the rest of her body.
3829319
I felt that the prologues were too short to warrant their own chapter.
Well because you seem to include very little detail and have a fairly fast pace.
Though it seems just enough to be bearable so for now I'm still reading, it's a fine line you're walking.
And obviously that box is being controlled by SCP-079.
3851394
Well, humans initially call ponies horses, so we can't really blame them, can we?
