> fear of lightning > by Layam > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > 1) sadness will come and it will take you friends > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- twilight diary, june 4 1004 morning. dear diary. it has been almost a month since the last enemy tried to take over Equestria and already things are turning out for the worst. anyway this day i woke up really happy and excited for the new morning, I opened the window and breathed the refreshing air of ponyville. Because i am now a princess i have to wake up really early, more specifically at 5 pm and nopony is around so i can enjoy the empty streets before they would become noisy and full of ponies. I brushed my mane and ate breakfast while i was already planning what to read and what to do. I came downstairs and i was ready to wake up spike to search a book that i was planning to do a research. And then the horror, ALL OF MY BOOKS WERE MISSING!!! I screamed, waking spike immediately who terrified asked me what was wrong. By looking around he noticed immediately the problem and it seemed like a chill got down his spine with the idea that somepony could have sneaked in and stole all of the books without anyone noticing. The guards came immediately as fast as the most famous detectives were looking for any clues. It was only found a piece of paper under the bookshelf who said “sorry for the scare, i took them only for a day, tomorrow they are going to be back, good as new”. The most amazing thing about this letter is that it was written in a style that no typing machine had but was perfect anyway. I know a spell that can lead to similar results but it is really difficult so the thief must be a professional unicorn, but if it is a professional why did it steal from my small library, when there where many ancient secrets in the carderlot library, this will be a mystery. Unfortunately they could’t figure out anything else so they leaved recommending us to lock our doors and windows twice. Most of my friends offered me to sleep in their houses until the criminal was caught, but I refused because i knew that the only way to catch him was to play his game. Tonight i am very scared to sleep, i am keeping an eye for any noise. Applejack, june 4 1004 afternoon. what’s up diary. this day happened something crazy to twili That ya not know! she told me how somepony stole all of her books without anyone notice it! It seemed that they found only a mysterious piece of paper where is written a bunch of sorries and giving it back nonsense. I personally laugh with pinkie pie when i reed it thinking how could such a good thief be so polite. But after that I became serious and told twili if she wanted to stay in ma home for a couple of dayz but she replied that she wanted to play his game. I honestly didn’t understand what she meant since this i something serious but if she doesn’t want to came in ,i can’t force her. spike diary, june 5 1004 afternoon. hi diary. today morning i swear is probably the worst day i ever lived. Even if i knew that the so called “professional thief” could have returned i slept really nicely. Actually i have a really funny dream where pinkie pie invited us to do a party on a mountain and at a moment we had an awesome pillow/pie fight and everypony was having fun. But i am not talking about that, because the nightmare became when i waked up. everything seemed pretty normal until i turned back and i saw the body of twilight laying on the floor and not moving at all. It also appeared that a dart was pinned up her skin not that big, but still enough large to not explain why there wasn’t any blood lost. My eyes were full of tears as i shacked her as much as i could while screaming “WAKE UP!”. I was so desperate that by continually screaming and shouting that i had a difficult time breathing and i had to stop. In that time i noticed a piece of paper on the table so i picked it up and read it. “see? what did i told you?” My hands started shaking with anger, I wanted to find who did this to twilight and strangle him. But i remembered that i cared more to save twilight that to have revenge. So i exited the house and started calling for help. Fortunately two colts came him picked up twilight and carried her to the hospital. All of twilight friends and family where alerted and everypony abandoned their activities to wait in the hospital. I was probably the saddest one since twilight could be considered by me: a big sister, mother, really close friend, boss and teacher all at the same time. In fact while i was closing my eyes with my hands crying and thinking if Twilight was really dead. I knew my comportment was really noticeable because a lot of the ponies passing by looked at me, most like if they wanted to comfort me but couldn’t find the words. Until a light blue pony stared at me with a evil grin in his face and stopped. “why are you crying little insignificant baby dragon? Aren’t you happy that you can eat as much ice cream as you want?” All my sadness turned into anger. I was so angry that i couldn’t find words to describe how evil it was those insulting words that wanted to make me feel like a beast that has no compassion for the ones around me. The only thing i could think to do was to prepare to use my fire breath to try to hurt him. But Shining Armor hold me and whispered to me that it wasn’t worth it, as the light blue pony got away still staring with that evil smile. It has been 8 hours since we are waiting in the hospital and still no response from the doctors. I fear for the worst. Shining Armor diary, june 5 1004 evening. diary. it was 9 a.m when the tragic letter came from ponyville hospital. It said that twilight has been injected with a powerful substance that caused her to fall into a dense sleep. They also describe how the substance was unknown and it didn’t match any other plant with similar effects. It also seemed that it was injected by a small dart. I immediately took a train to ponyville running and being generally as quick as possible doing any action. My wife also wanted to come but somepony had to govern the cristal empire. They made me enter in a special first class cabin in the train where i was alone. That was good because i was drowning with tears, something uncommon with a soldier, and i didn’t want to be seen like that. When i arrived at the hospital they have accompanied me to the waiting room where there were also a lot of twilight friends. Spike was absolutely the saddest of them. he was curled up with his legs, covering his eyes with his hands, crying and sweating endlessly. Most of the ponies passed by showed compassion to Spike except one. He had a light blue skin, a yellow mane and a green tail. He started bullying spike, who became so angry that he was preparing to use his fire breath but i hold him and told him that it wasn’t worth it because he knew that he wanted to see him become very angry. Spike calmed down but you could see that in his eyes there was printed the word “revenge”. I promise, the first thing i am going to do when this is over is to track down that pony and send two guards to take him at the educational center. > 2) the white chamber > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- twilight diary, june 5 1004 afternoon. dear diary this is the day when i woke up in the hospital. I asked the doctors what was going on and they replied that i’ve been found unconscious by Spike. After an hour I went out to meet my friends waiting for me. Everypony was really happy that i wasn’t dead especially Spike who when he saw me, ran furiously and hugged me while happy crying and shouting how he was so happy and how he feared that he would have lost me forever. I didn’t even have time to talk to my friends because two ponies immediately told me that I needed to go to the interrogation room. The room was small and dark with only a light bulb hanging from the celling, a single white wooden table and two chairs. When I arrived a brown skinned detective greeted me and told me to start talking about what happened. I replied that i didn’t remember anything. But he persisted by saying that if i wouldn’t remember anything Ponyville could face a great danger. So i used all of my magic and concentration to remember what happened, until i started narrating. “err now i think i am starting to remember now. Well it was very late and i didn’t slept for a minute, i was really concentrated to be sure that the thief didn’t really meant what he had written. But after a moment i heard a sound of someone unlocking a door. I was really afraid to go investigate, but then i remembered spike slept downstair and i didn’t want anything bad to happen to him. So i grabbed a candle and i went downstairs as the noise of the door became more and more loud until it opened. I hided behind the table and waited until the door started opening slowly as the entity entered. So it was in that precise moment that i could saw him with pure horror. It was like anything i saw before, not even in my books, it wasn’t from this world. It was bicipital but not a minotaur because it was way too slender to be one. He wore an hood and really long and dark clothing that touched the floor so i couldn’t see other body parts. He was carrying what it seemed a long stick, but i am sure that it wasn’t a stick because it seemed the posterior part had the form of something like a triangle and all the rest of this object was in metal. Also he carried it in a odd way, the posterior part was against his shoulder while the rest of the object was supported by his arms. He barely entered the room with a large bag, he looked around a bit and then stared where i was hiding and started indicating me with his stick. I was about to scream when a dart came out of an hole at the end of the stick and hit me, i started to feel sleepy and then you know what happened”. The detective was trying to be as serious and neutral as possible but you could see in his eyes fear mixed curiosity of that enigmatic creature. He thank me and finally i could celebrate with my friends. They were so happy that Fluttershy offered to go into the ever free forest and collect some mushrooms for some delicious soup. I accepted but after 15 minutes of waiting she came screaming and terrified as she describe an evil creature staring at her in the forest. I then said how the creature perfectly matched up what i’ve seen last night. After hearing this my big brother immediately started to write a letter to request more soldiers to control Ponyville. I just hope that what happened to Fluttershy doesn’t repeat with others. Applejack diary june 6 1004 evening. whats’ up diary I have fought a lot of monsters when twilight arrived, ranging from evil corrupted sisters to parasites of ponies, but this one is by far the most sadistic one i ever encounter. Yo wanna know why? “HOW COULD SOMEONE KIDNAPS THREE DEFENSELESS FILLIES?!” Was what i said angrily why tears rolled out of my eyes when i realized that the disappearance of mah sister, Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle could be linked by who i am going to call from now simply him. “I am sorry, we will try as best as we can to try find clues” Said the detective which actually didn’t do anything at all. They found only apple bloom red bow. They even interrogated Zecora but she just replied that the only thing out of the ordinary that she heard was the sound of an angry manticore who in just a matter of seconds became totally silent. They tried to find the manticore but it was too late and dangerous to search further in the ever free forest. I just can’t imagine how could someone could kidnap a filly for revenge or other things that i don’t know. That is one of the most coward ways to lower the morale of somepony. My only hope is that they are just lost in the forest and they will return tomorrow, let’s hope. Twilight diary june 6 1004 evening. dear diary. it was pretty late when i was returning at home after a long walk, recommended by the doctor to calm myself, when i saw a lot of guards and detectives at applejack home. I ran to see what happened and Applejack explain to me that Apple Bloom, Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle disappeared and that it was theorized that was him that kidnap them. I started shaking and sweating at the thought that someone could have done something so, so, so. I can’t explain with words. There was also Rarity. Usually when she cried she exaggeratedly dramatized to get the attention of everyone but this wasn’t definitely one of those times. In fact her hair was a mess and she just stood her watching the void doing nothing except for crying small but continuos tears. There were also Scootaloo parents. Strangely i never saw them before, the best way to describe them is that the mother was brown skinned and haired pegasus and had Scootaloo eyes, the father was yellow skinned and had a really light blue mane with really small wings like Scootaloo. They appeared worried but trustful of the authorities. I didn’t stay there for much, i immediately headed to my home and called Spike and ordered him to write an letter to princess Celestia. So i dictated how this events where happening and and if nothing happened this could get out of control (if it already wasn’t). Also i described as best as i could the creature throughout mine and Fluttershy perspective. Just a minute after i sent the letter i got a reply who said “dear Twilight. Thanks to sending me the letter but i already knew something was wrong. meet me at Canterlot with your friends tomorrow”. after finishing reading i slowly went to sleep asking myself what it meant. Sweetie Belle diary june 7 1004 9 pm we woke up in a white metallic room we looked around, there weren’t any windows, just a door. Obviously we tried to open it but it was locked. That’s when we heard a loud strong but not angry voice. “all test subjects shall seat in front of the table”. We were a little bit hesitating but at the end we followed the orders. “what are you going to do with us”said Scootaloo scared for her life. “don’t worry this is not unit 237.”he replied with abnormal calm. “what is un…” i tried to say confused but my argument was cut short by the mysterious voice who didn’t want to get in that argument. “now pick up the papers in the table, there will be a list of objects with their photos, check the one you know, but don’t lie, you will get out of here if you collaborate.” It was something strange, i expected everything but some testing. So without anything to do else i picked up the pen and started checking what i knew. Some things were obvious like beds and hammers, but others were quite ambiguous like jets and tanks. When we finished the voice demanded us to drop the papers into a hole at my right. We done what he said and then he indicated to us that in the room there were libraries full of books and board games while on the other side there were the supplies, bathroom and some beds to sleep. We immediately checked for the boards games. We notice it that there weren’t our normal board games but instead others. There was particularly this one who was called “M-O-N-O-P-O-L-Y” in which the object was to try to own every neighborhood in the game and make the other players go bankrupt. It was really fun and we spent a good two hours on it. But there was something strange in this board games, there wasn’t any ponies in any cover at all like if they were brushed off. After some time the clock indicated the 9:00 pm and so i am going to sleep after finishing this diary. > 3) fire, wind, ashes > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Twilight diary june 7 1004 afternoon. dear diary. when i woke up and done breakfast i went to my friends to tell them that princess Celestia wanted to see us. Most of them were a little bit tired to have to do a Canterlot trip so fast but they knew that when Celestia called them, something was in great, great danger. We took fortunately a special train who went 3x faster than the regular one, so we just arrived in 4 hours instead of the normal 12. It was a busy day in Canterlot and Rarity noticed an discount of diamond silk of 80% and we had to pull her to the castle when she was attracted by the glorious shining of a cheap and elegant one chance that it would’ve been wasted. We presented ourself to the castle and two guards accompanied us to the crystal rooms. There, princess Luna and princess Celestia were waiting on their thrones. “Greetings my friends!”said princess Luna as she was engaging a more friendly conversation to then go into the serious stuff. “Thanks for coming, this could be an enemy without predecessors”told us Celestia “Yeah but how did you one knew something was wrong if Him is clearly in the forest”I said confused, knowing that the Princesses are really powerful but not at the level to be able to see everywhere. “also how could be someone that doesn’t even have the guts to show himself be more powerful of a demonic magic sucking creature”was what Rainbow Dash skeptical even if she perfectly knew that Celestia would have gave an good enough explanation. “I will tell you what happened” replied Luna who started to be very, very serious. “It was yesterday. I was like normally sleeping throughout the day to then stay awake the night, when i started having this weird dream. This wasn’t a normal dream because i neither have control over it or knew i was in a dream. So it started normally, i was visiting with my sister Ponyville when we saw in the sky what it seemed a big but far bird. But it wasn’t a bird because it leaved a trail of clouds behind him and produce a really annoying and indescribable sound. Everypony started insulting him including me and my sister. The thing then dropped something and turn away, and the horror started when the object he dropped almost touched the ground. A fireball appeared, engulfing and destroying everything in fractions of a second. I saw everything burn and scream in pure agony. Many ponies were completely destroyed by the fire ball. I wanted to cry but i couldn’t because there was too heat that the tear evaporated, and i could not scream because it was too hot. Then a strong wind came and thrown everything away. I saw trees, ponies, mailboxes and even entire houses being thrown away into the far distance of the horizon. When i regain consciousness my sister was dead and i lost an wing. More specifically everypony i saw was dead, carbonized by the intense heat steal with their hoofs high when they were insulting the thing. I started wondering around what was once Ponyville. Everything was destroyed: the houses, the streets even the every free forest was burning. Everywhere i looked i could only see ashes and rocks. I began to see a hoard of alive ponies. The fire ball was so strong that it even melted their flesh and i was constantly seeing all this people walking blindly, someponies with eyes hanging over their face and someponies with missing limbs and body parts, revealing their extremely gory injuries and organs. Eventually someponies couldn’t handle the fatigue and just died while walking. I then started to follow the crowd until we arrived at a giant sign and stopped. It said never again. Then i finally woke up from the hellish nightmare, Celestia a few guards and two doctors where watching me. My sister said that while sleeping i was crying for pain and shouting never again, never again, never again. I told the story to my sister and then we received your letter.” “so what is ahh… the plan?” said Fluttershy who was really scared by the description of Luna. “What i would recommend is to make a trap. You will trick to think you are searching for him into the forest while i and Luna with an invisibility spell are going to watch over you”. “Sounds great to me!” said Pinkie Pie that was already enthusiastic for the false quest. We will start it tomorrow, hope this plans works. Shining Armor diary june 7 1004 night as Normal at 11:00 pm i went to bed with my wife to rest for the coming day, but this days i couldn’t sleep thinking about what happened to Twilight and Ponyville and in that thinking i notice something strange. By listening really really really with attention i could hear swifts and Hoofsteps. I knew they weren’t the guards because it was alternated at two and not at four. I had a lot of fear of checking that out so i picked up my sword without waking up Cadence and went investigating. With the attention that made me what i am now i followed where him went without getting too close or too far. It finally lead to the library. I raised my sword and continued to follow him throughout the library. I notice that he noticed that i notice that he was heard so the hoofsteps became more and more fast until they stopped. I knew he was making a trap but i couldn’t stop so i continued. I was sweating and my eyes even if hurt were as much open as i could. It was a really tense moment, all my muscles were rigid and ready for everything until i heard a crack and i turned handing my sword and ready for a bloody battle. It was Cadence. I relaxed and lowered the sword before asking “what are you doing here” she replied “wouldn’t it be more appropriate if i asked you this question” “well uhh… i heard some light hoof steps so i followed them and they went here”. I said a little embarrassed “Shining Armor you worry too much, everything is fine, you need to relax and rest for the coming day, they will eventually found him”. Replied Cadence trying to calm me “Besides, who would be so crazy to enter the castle where lives the commander of all the guards” she said a little bit ironically “you are right, i probably need some sleep and not worry that much”. So i returned the bed and started sleeping. Sweetie belle diary june 7 1004 afternoon. i was starving for food, him said that the suplies were inside a box but we couldn’t open it because it was too heavy and tall. “why haven’t i seen you eat or drink anything? Afraid that i poisoned the food?” said the mysterious voice with a little bit of sarcasm. “no we just can’t open it, it’s too heavy” replied scootaloo with a weak voice, then we heard in the background something like “do i have to do everything?” and after half a minute the door finally opened and we could see him very well. I finally could comp rend why Twilight said Him was so scary looking. He was really tall but also thin with long legs and arms. In the face he wore a terrifying gas mask which gave him no emotions combined with a hood. He had a big belt where there were attached lot of things which we don’t know the nature of. He has dark grey heavy and long clothes that almost touched the floor. the clothes that covered the legs where all black, with also tall and big dark grey boots. He after closing the door went immediately to the box and lifted the cover up. Here we could see that he had hands like Spike but with much longer fingers, which were covered by a dark brown glove. We watched impressed his appearance and then we started asking him a ton of questions like “why you have a gas mask”or “what creature you are”or “why do you wear so many clothes?” not even one of this questions were answered as he ignored most of them completely and then he just headed to the door and after got inside it he closed it. “it is so boring here what can we do?”said Apple Bloom “what i tell you to do, now pick up the papers and start doing this test now.” responded him. It was so unexpected this message that it scared Scootaloo who jump scared off her seat. We began the test, it was a test about a good actions. It had several questions who were something like “you see an pony who his humiliating someone younger with insults and kicks do you intervene?” or “you find a stranger of an totally different race of ponies, do you welcome it?” During the test Scootaloo asked why did he need us to do many tests. He responded that even the smaller things about something could define an important mentality or culture that could be a lot useful for him if he knew it. When we finished we did the same as the other time. I still can’t figure out why him just can’t, peacefully, ask gently to the ponies if they want to be part of tests without kidnapping. Guess i will know another time. Shining Armor diary 8 june 1004 evening. “WHAT!!” was what i shouted when i knew that the library had been emptied and the message “so close…” was discovered “JUST WHY! WHY! WHYYYY!!?, I WAS SO CLOSE TO CATCH HIM! SO CLOSE!!!” i spoke furiously while obliterating the piece of paper with my hoofs. “don’t be angry, even if you would have found him it wouldn’t meant you would have caught him” tried to calm me down Cadence. I knew that if i needed to be angry i would be at Cadence but i wasn’t “It’s just that it could be all over, Him would have probably been imprisoned, Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo would have been free. And i wouldn’t be so worried for the princesses.” “Well at least you can make a trap where you wait for him to give back the books”said Cadence trying to comfort me as i watched angrily outside wondering where the moon could he be. “wait a moment………….. this is a great idea! i’ll immediately going to project the ambush!”was what i said while jumping with joy for what i believed was a sure victory. So i went away and starting grouping all the guards. By 10:00 pm we were all hiding in the library ready to attack. Finally after half an hour of waiting we heard hoofsteps. It was Cadence, again. “Cadence what are you doing here? I told you to not go in the library” “well you wanna might see this” she responded as she handed me a paper.
It read “because you didn’t want my gentle offer of giving you back the books i leaved them there, have fun taking them back in the library >:)” (i honestly don’t have a clue what the final symbol was). “where did you get this?” I asked confused at the word, “i leaved them here”. “In the kitchen. It is full of books” I couldn’t hold myself so i screamed “DAMMMMMMMMMMMM HIMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!” > 4) silence is deadlier than screams > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Twilight diary june 8 1004 evening. dear diary. Celestia plan began today. so we started wandering while she and Luna were watching over us. Since it seemed he wasn’t attracted by us we decided to split up, even if it meant that it would have been harder for the princess to guarantee us protection. I wandered throughout the woods and every one and then i turned so i could’ve checked that nopony was following me. I walked very slowly but still i was really tired, probably because i was sweating for the fear. Noises were continuos and sometimes i had the impression that a shadowy figure was stalking me and was at the corner of my view. I knew him was around me when i noticed that despite the immense amount of noises no animals was to be seen. But everything went alright until i heard a scream destroying the quiet of the forest. It was Fluttershy. I immediately galloped towards her, knowing that it could’ve been the difference between life and death. There were many trees in my way and obstacle but i evaded them by teleporting and jumping. I arrived at an open field of the forest, Celestia and Luna were already there. Everyone else arrived a few seconds later. “sugarcube, are you alrigh…” didn’t finish the phrase Applejack when she faced an horror which hasn’t been narrated since the beginning of Equestria. A manticore laid down in the grass over a big pool of flowing blood. Further investigations revealed that the manticore had really small sphere of lead inside her and that she died instantly due to her expression of anger still printed in her face. Fluttershy was crying like she never cried before, screaming at loudly and making up senseless phrases of agony, fear and disgust. The manticore was obviously a mother because around there there were 4 babies manticores who were starving for food and were more dead than alive. “I…i…i” couldn’t express herself Rainbow Dash through she was the one with the strongest personality in all ponyville. Nopody found any word for that situation, it had been almost 1200 years since the great war of Equestria when the last animals and ponies were killed with will and not by an accident. We transported the baby manticores in Fluttershy cottage where she gave them food and water. We then returned to my castle and i called spike when tears were still on my face. As if it wasn’t bad enough he didn’t respond and was in fact disappeared. There was the normal letter in which was written: “haven’t you figure it out yet? the more you search for me and the more i will take ponies and dragons away, do you understand?” Even through i probably be really sad, i was more angry that sad. How could this entity pretend to do whatever he wants in this world? Even the worst villains in the history of Equestria never took the life of somepony. We had a reunion with my friends and the princesses, even Cadence and Shining Armor were there, to discuss what to do next in the Canterlot castle. “As we seen this is no ordinary villain, we know nothing about him and he seems to have broke one of the most important rules of all Equestria” said Celestia with a determinate voice. “but how are we suppose to find him since he seems to know everything we want to do, maybe even now!” said rarity preoccupied of the future. “we’ll need every help we can get, even if it means that we need to use Discord again.” “Did somepony called me?” replied discord has he emerged from the celling.” “oh here he is, again” Said annoyed Rainbow Dash why looking away and evading to see Discord. “Oh dear princess Celestia, who is it going to be? the evil Sombra coming again?, or maybe queen Chrisalis trying to retake Equestria? Or no, it can’t be, he is Tirek that in just a month escaped the prison? I knew it!” said Discord trying to provoke Celestia. “DISCORD! this is something to take really seriously, he has already stole all of the books of my library and the one in the crystal empire, kidnapped Spike and three fillies, put me in a serious coma, killing cold heartily a mother of four baby manticores and we still know nothing about him!” was what i replied angrily while tears rolled out my eyes and i smack my hoofs on the table. Discord was quite shocked and impressed but after two cough he returned to his original personality.”well well well. It seems that someone has finally the evilness to confront the mighty Discord.” “not yet, he is really unpredictable, we need to plan every move we will do before falling into the pit.” said Luna who was more and more angry. “oh but you won’t fall into anything ,because i will do the work for you, isn’t that true Fluttershy?” replied discord in a provocative way “cut it out Discord, we haven’t forgot how you betrayed us.” Said Rainbow Dash. “anyway if anyone needs just call me and i will be there immediately, goodbye.” finally concluded Discord as piece by piece vanished in thin air. “so what are we going to do?” asked pinkie pie “for the moment nothing particular, i am just increasing the control of the guards in the cities, we need time to think to see how to catch him” Concluded Celestia. We went to sleep and i still can not sleep due to the horrific gore memory of the manticore who drill into my heart. Babs seeds diary june 8 1004 afternoon. dear diary today i was involved in a really awful crime. It was early in the day, when 5 ponies armed with swords came into my school and started taking everypony hostage. They called themselves the five stars of south and said that to change Equestria into better they would had to show what they can do. I could hear my mother screaming in sadness while the guards ordered for them to come out. The ponies said that they would’ve slaughtered us if they weren’t paid 200000 bits and were given the chance to went into another country. My condition were really awful, the ponies to don’t let us escaped, compacted us in the corridors and because everyone was sweating for fear, there was an abnormal temperature. We couldn’t move even by an inch because three of the ponies were guarding us and they promised that everyone that would have move, would have been stabbed to death. The other two were guarding respectively the first one the main entrance, the second one the emergency entrance at the back. Everything seemed that was lost until something magical happened. The lights went off and we hears the ponies being beaten up. Sometimes it where sounds of shattering glass, sometimes the sound of screams of pain and fatigue. When the lights went back one the two ponies were unconscious (i don’t know where the first one went) and a mysterious creature appeared. It was like the creature that my cousin Apple Bloom described me before disappearing but it wore in the head something really strange that i can’t even describe. While Apple Bloom version was more slow and stealthy, this creature didn’t have a long coat but instead a black suit in which were attached various weapons which are unknown to us. He had black gloves and big dark grey boots. The creature didn’t stood there for too long before he said “don’t ask any questions, GET OUT!, i took care of the other ponies.” soon everyone exit the school and was safe. I was so happy to hug back my mother who cried tears of joys. Everypony met their parents and were interviewed. I was one of them and i spoke how this creature saved us. It is strange that this creature took away Apple Bloom but saved me. What do i have that Apple Bloom doesn’t have? Or what if this isn’t one creature but multiple ones acting in theirs owns? I don’t know, i believe this mystery will remain for quite a while. Spike diary june 9 1004 evening. I perfectly knew i was kidnapped while i was unconscious. In fact i lucid dreamed about a dream where i was kidnapped by a monster and i was escaping, just when i completed my task i was waken up by Scootaloo. “what is this place? Where did him took me?” i asked while looking frenetically in every direction trying to gather as much information as possible. “We don’t know either but don’t worry, him isn’t that bad, as long as you do his tests.”said Apple Bloom with an unnatural smile on her face. “actually this day he came to play with us and he was really funny and was also willing to reveal us somethings except all the military stuff” said Sweetie Belle as she also looked at me with an unnatural smile. Just as they finished their sentences a voice loud and strong spoke into the room “every test subject please take the paper and start writing your concept of beauty”. The fillies immediately took the papers and started writing somethings while i stood there trying to think of whatever he needed to get out of this tests. “I said EVERY test subject” shouted the voice at me with impatience and anger. I then sit down and was about to write the 101% accurate description of rarity but i had a better idea. I flipped over the paper and started writing down in the empty space that him captured me in a room where he would test us for days and nights and possibly have brainwashed the cutie marks crusaders. Just before he took me by the neck i managed to sent the piece of paper to princess Celestia. But when he did that, he blocked me by pushing against the wall, so strong that my nose started bleeding for the pain, and he started shouting “SO THIS IS HOW YOU WANT TO PLAY? UH? NOT OBEYING THE ORDERS? WELL YOU JUST EARNED YOURSELF A DAY IN THE DARK ROOM!”so he lifted me up and he carried me throughout a corridor and after sometime he opened a door and thrown me in violently. Then he closed it really fast to not let me escape. I tried to escape by using my fire breath but it didn’t have any effect. The room like his name was so dark that i couldn’t see anything, and it was also very small so i bumped often against a corner. I sat down and started waiting for something to happen. After what it seemed to me 4 hours him finally opened the door and lighted the room with a flashlight, he took me once again and thrown me in the previous room where the cutie marks crusaders were waiting. They explained that they rebelled against him to free me by screaming and not doing his orders, even when he personally came into the room and warn them that if they would have continued he would put them also in different dark rooms. I thank them and we started playing this board game of him who was called battleship. It was really similar of another game i played which i don’t remember the name. But the thing that intrigues me the most is that why is it called battleships? I don’t get it, aren’t ships suppose to only commerce? I probably will never know. > 5) the missing piece > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Twilight diary june 9 1004 afternoon. dear diary. When we woke up in Celestia castle a guard arrived and alerted the princesses that 5 ponies had yesterday took hostage all the students of the starswill elementary school in manhattan. Celestia ordered to sent the most expert guards from Equestria to secure the children’s, but the guard pointed out that it finished because somepony entered the school and knocked out the evil ponies. He also described how the description of the mysterious hero matched the characteristics of him. “so what if him is actually a good person and is actually acting evil so that he can seem more good. Or what if he is actually evil and he is fooling us thinking that he is actually good when in real life he is pretending to be good so that he can manifest his evilness by showing that he is not good even if he was evil before, I HAVE NO CLUE!” said pinkie pie in her humorist tone “pinkie pie there is no tim…” i tried to be serious but i was interrupted by Celestia receiving a letter. “it’s from spike!”she announced. as she seemed to check the page her look became more and more confused. We checked out what there was read and what there was was only a phrase “describe your concept of absolutely beauty” It seemed like a bad prank at first until Celestia turned the page and it was discovered a help message from Spike. It was written really fast and not even finished. It described how he was trapped in this white room with the three little fillies with only something to read and to eat. The three little fillies said to him wasn’t so evil if you done his orders and by the look of it they were brainwashed. We were happy that they weren’t dead but being brainwashed is something really bad. Celestia Called Discord who showed up immediately. “i knew you wouldn’t resist calling me for a day, what do you need?” he spoke “listen Discord what i’ll say you to you could save the sanity of three fillies, track down where this letter was sent” ordered Celestia “ooh let’s see. Spike calling for help interesting, well this will require at least 5 days to track down where is from”. “What!? I DEMAND YOU INFORMATION, NOW!” shouted princess Luna who was quickly hold back by her sister. “woo woo woo, calm down. First of all this is a favor i do to you since reformed Discord isn’t the equivalent of helpful Discord. Second it’s hard to know where this letter could be sent because i can clearly say it’s not from Equestria.”Continued Discord “so what now?” asked Applejack “well if you have the courtesy of waiting just a few days you might end this abomination forever” Responded Discord. “Ok while Discord work on trying to find the location of the letter we will see if we can find why he helped the fillies in the school”finally said Celestia and finished the reunion. We took the train to manhattan but we aren’t still there. So i’ll continue the diary when i’ll arrive. sweetie belle diary june 10 1004 afternoon. this time when we woke up the creature was waiting in front of the door. After he let us done breakfast he showed us four new machinery. He said that they have been installed to be a substitute of paper since he doesn’t trust spike. So he started explaining what it his. “anyway what are you seeing here is named computer, more specifically laptop, and because it needs some explanation i’ll teach you how to use it” “So how are we suppose to write your tests in this thing?”asked Scootaloo “simple you will press this bottom and the display will light up like an arcade machine” So we stood there for 8 seconds until the computer finished loading and it went into the menu. “so what are you going to do now is to go and click this application called word and then”he was interrupted by me “how do you move that arrow thingy?” “that’s even simpler, you take this object called mouse and you move up,down,left,right and in whatever direction you move, the cursor will go there.” “why is it called mouse?” asked Apple Bloom “i don’t know, probably the first prototypes resembled a mouse” “Anyway you then double click this application called word”. When you open it there will be a lot of files to choose from, always choose the new one, that will be your test.” “how are we suppose to type the words? the buttons are too small for our hoofs”asked Apple Bloom. Even if you couldn’t see his expression with his gas mask, he seemed a little embarrassed, he backed off to the door open it go through it and closed it. After five minutes he returned with four new components. “you see this? let’s plug in first them and i will show you how to use them” He told us “now act like this thing is a piece of paper and use this special pen, the computer will identify the calligrapher and write down the words, if you did an mistake just push this large button and it will erase the word, now good luck the test can start now”. The test was about what was our opinions on princess Celestia, Luna, Cadence and Twilight. While i was writing on how i felt they were four beings of the maximum majestic and power i seen him at the corner of my eye giving signs of disappointment. When we finished he told us to save and was about to leave if it wasn’t for Spike “I maybe can justify that you want to test us to see how our comportment is different from yours but why are you acting like this? Why are you terrorizing my friends and the princesses? Why you stealthily stealing our books and then give them back? Just why?” he asked “you wanna really know why?” he finally replied. “i have fear. Fear of not been understand by your people, fear of being used to take my technology by being nice to me but as quickly as a lightning in my most helpless state being betrayed and left out, i have fear of being laugh at, to being humiliated, to be categorize as an idiot. In my lifetime i’ve took too many risks trying to socialize and in most of them i failed miserably. This time there i won’t risk loosing the honor of me and my world, no the only way to be sure to combat fear is fear and if they won’t fear me they will even if that means showing them plan z.” When he finished he left the door and close it before Spike could ask what was plan z. I am thinking more and more that him isn’t doing this for evil and he just needs some time to socialize with the ponies, i hope this doesn’t turn for the worst. Princess Luna diary 9-10 june 1004 night-morning. my beloved friend diary. I was guarding the train while we were waiting, i didn’t sleep at night anyway. When i saw out of the window a meteor that crashed a mile near the train. That was odd because i controlled the sky in any given moment so i wasn’t expecting a meteor. I alerted my sister which told me to go investigate while she guarded the train. I teleported there. It wasn’t a meteor. It wasn’t also a normal landscape at all, there was plain cement in the ground with white lines drawn in it and lights at the end of the cement which largeness was short compared to the length which was really really long. There was what i believed was some kind of iron bird over this cement. The iron bird was black and really low, it didn’t resemble a bird at all but that was the closest thing that i can think of. I decided to return at the train to report what i found but… all trains cabins where filled with a dense gas which had a really stingy smell. Thankfully i being able to close my mouth and not breath the gas and then open all the windows and let it out. I proceeded by checking if the conductor was ok. He wasn’t. He was lying in the ground also affected by the gas while him was messing with the train commands. “YOU WON’T GET AWAY WITH THIS!” i said even if it would have been smarter to use a surprise bonus to attack him. I charged him and he just made a step to the left to evade my attack and i broke the window flying off it. I would probably went under the rails if it wasn’t for him, who grabbed my majestic mane (ouch) and throw me over the train in movement. In other circumstances i would have thanked him but he was an enemy and i had to fight him. I started by throwing him hundreds of small magic pellets who were suppose to stung him but he just run towards me and evaded the pellets simply by going under them. When he approached me he hit me with his fists and knock me a little over. Then i tried to do close combat by hitting first by hitting him with my hooves first from high to low and then viceversa. I missed both times. I tried then to stab him with my horn. But he moved out of the way grabbed my belly and overturned me. When i get up (him gave me the time to do it) i opened my wings and started flying and trying to hit him with magic. He always was able to evade the projectiles every time, until it seemed i hit him in the shoulder (maybe he faked) that’s when i decided to do the final strike by flying against him and knock him out, but he pulled up the stick. I tried to stop but he hit me in the neck with the small dart. I was suddenly feeling very tired and sleepy so i landed on the train but i continued fighting. He then hit me again and i lost my balance, and as i close my eyes i heard him saying “Buonanotte principessa della luna” Which translates from ancient alicornian to “goodnight princess of the moon” I was woken up by my sister. I had an headache like everyone else in the train. They said that they saw small objects coming from the windows that started emitting the gas. I told them what i saw and did the night before. Unfortunately even in the most remote cabins we couldn’t find Twilight anywhere. But this time none cried, we were getting more and more experienced with the methods of him. We find the normal piece of paper under my bed that said. “let’s assume that to defeat me you need to finish a puzzle, now that a piece is missing how are you going to complete it?” he was right! without Twilight we wouldn’t be able to use the friendship magic again. Thankfully Celestia tranquillize everyone by saying that we would find twilight and in the meantime we would have to prepare as much as possible. Also the train as been stopped and all of the coal disappeared so we have to wait to an escort chariot to carry to manehattan. I hope that twilight hasn’t been killed or else Equestria could fall. > 6) when the skin smokes > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Twilight diary 1004 june 10 afternoon. When i woke up i was in a white room where spike and the three little fillies greeted me. “I thought i wouldn’t see you in a loooong time.” said Spike with tears of joy “I am also happy to see you, but where am i” i responded “in the secret base of him which we don’t know where is it” said happily scootaloo “well, don’t worry with my magic i’ll help you break free” i said confident “Wait he said you must not use magic because if yo…”tried to say Sweetie Belle but i interrupted her “don’t care about what he says, now let’s get out of here.” as the first preparation of the magic were made some holes started emitting gas at high pressure and it poisoned us. When we woke up a voice started saying “well it seems you don’t really know to do you what they order you to do rule or the fillies didn’t do what i told them to do.” “i tried but she interrupted me” tried Sweetie Belle to justify herself “anyway explain Twilight what she has to do and then begin the test. Then they started showing me how to use this really complicated machine called “computer” and how to write in his screen. I must say i am fascinated with this creature technology and i am quite sad he didn’t shared with us all. What the test was anyway about the theorems that i knew for example “which theorem indicates that A X A=B X B + C X C?” some ones where easy but others were a monstrosity of letters and numbers. When i finished Spike showed me what i could have done in the free time like reading his books or playing his board games. They showed their favorite which was a game named monopoly which objective was to control the most districts and to make the others go in bankrupt. Something then caught my attention. A part of the small library was labeled “DO NOT READ”. I thought that if him didn’t really want me to read it he wouldn’t took it here, so i searched which books were there. There was only one and it was named Mein kampf. It was written in an strange language similar to old gryphonate. I couldn’t translate anything but the word superiority. When i put it back and i turned i found out that him was standing there the whole time. “seems like curiosity gets the best out of you”he said not angry but disappointed. He then picked up the book and went out. What was the book about i probably won’t know but i really starting to feel it was dangerous in some way but what is it? Rarity diary 1004 june 10 afternoon. precious diary it was 8 am when the escorts finally arrived and took us to marehattan. There we went to the starswirl elementary school where we discovered that Babs seeds studied there and this made things a lot easier. She narrated how in this moment of panic he was able to eliminate the problem in seconds and calm us all. everyone in that school even if we reminded them that he was the same who kidnapped the princess Twilight they thought he was an hero and he would had to be remembered with a statue. “Either he is making a really complicated twisted situation to made us more far from the idea of his true nature or he is playing a double game and there is a really specific reason for his crimes” said princess Celestia. “See!? what did i told you?” said pinkie pie “anyway what are we going to do now?”asked applejack “just wait for Discord to…”Princess Cadence didn’t finish her phrase when suddenly “hello everypony! did you miss me? probably yes since i came when you were talking about me.” Discord appeared and did his normal introduction. “Oh not again”said rainbow Dash while face hoofing in sign of disappointment. “Oh don’t worry i am not here to cause any trouble but to help you” he replied “what did you discovered?” said Princess Luna serious as she was never before “oh just a little small particular thing.”He said while his eyes became bigger and started sparkling. “well, first i was as usual taking my trip into the moon with my little pink tricycle while balancing on my head a bowl of salad when i saw a enormous military base in the dark side of the moon, so i became part of the wall and started exploring the base. i’ve seen little twilight and her friends playing a board game while in the next room him was controlling the situation, i was about to leave when him said “the exit is in the other side, Discord” i didn’t know how he knew that but i replied “thanks” and said “no problem”, so then i came to you.” “this is so hard to believe, how could someone get to the moon and went back?” Said princess Luna “well we will start expressing our opinion to decide if he is lying or not, i personally think that it would require a magic too powerful to be real to get there.”said Celestia. “yes and also why so far? wouldn’t be more easy to have a base here close to us so he can watch us more?” commented Cadence “yes but have you forgot the iron bird which seemed a meteor at first and landed perfectly in the base? It’s probably him coming to the sky.” i said “maybe he is from the moon but i wouldn’t trust Discord at least for some time, maybe he will lead to a wrong direction and to a trap” expressed herself Rainbow Dash “well this is “CRAZY” but because it is i think he was trying to hide in the most unusual place that we would never go there.”said pinkie pie “i know when someone is lying and this isn’t one of thoz momentz Besides why the buck would Discord ally with an unknown creature?” Now there it was 4-4 Fluttershy was the final pony. “well…uhhhm……i think i should give Discord another chance…maybe……?” “it has been decided we will begin to search in the moon but how?”finally concluded Celestia. “i could attract the moon close enough to make a bridge to let pass the guards on it.” “well it is officially started”said pinkie pie while putting a mustache on herself “operation notunthinkable!” Twilight diary june 10 1004 evening. it was getting very boring until the door opened and him entered the room. “Twilight i’ll need you for the final experiment. 
“what is it” i asked. “how to deflect pony magic” he answered calmly. I didn’t believe myself, was he really making a way to stop magic and he suppose that i would have helped him? “no” i replied coldly and determinate. He stared at me like if there was an expression of disgust behind his gas mask. He close the door and after a moment gas filled the room again. I woke with my hooves strapped to a chair along with spike and the three fillies. “seems like i have to do this the hard way”he murmured in the shadow of the dark room “with a normal person i would probably start the torture with the person who i need a favor from, but because you are more into the friendship thing i will start with spike.”he said like there was an evil grin in his face. “you can’t do something like this” i said as while tears rolled out my eyes. “so spike do you like seeing electricity shows?”he asked and for a moment i calmed myself. “what are those”he answered confused because he always thought electricity could only travel in copper wires. “you’ll see”him responded with an evil tone as he grabbed a stick that produced electricity at the end of it and press it against Spike skin. We all became really concerned as Spike skin contorted and started shaking the chair trying to break free as small tears of pain came down while screaming immense pain that his voice was almost destroyed. when him finished the torture Spike, after 30 seconds of break as his skin was still smoking he finally murmured “Please, let me out!” but he was again greeted by him words whack spoke “i am sorry spike, but because Twilight loves to see you die slowly and painfully i have to electrify you again. “Please no, no” he replied as he was staring into my soul. “i’ll collaborate” i said in a submitted tone “that’s the spirit, now Spike wait here that i’ll give you some medical assistance after the final test” Then he freed me and escorted me to another room while of course holding his weapons in his hands against me. In the room he ordered me to try to move some object while he installed various objects in the room. The first four materials were affected by my magic but the fifth one didn’t move by a millimeter. “i always knew five was my lucky number!” he commented happily while writing down the results on the notes. He then thank me and sent me with my friends in the normal room. Spike was crying and was still really effected by the immense pain, i tried to comfort him but it seems it didn’t work. I hope he doesn’t use this anti magic reppelant to do something evil. > 7) 100 years ago and 910 in the future > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rarity diary june 11 1004 night. my precious diary. this was the day operation notunthinkable was going to be done. Shining Armor had organized more than 350 highly trained guards ready for an assault at the base. It was 9 pm when Luna finally pulled the moon close enough that we could went on it. But she didn’t come because she needed to rest from the immense fatigue she had. we travelled for 3 hours on the moon surface until we reached the final hill. “now after this hill the base will be visible, if it wasn’t self destroyed.”said Discord like always with a little bit of humor. “nah, it wouldn’t be so easy” said Rainbow Dash but when we climbed the hill there wasn’t intact nothing apart a small light in the distance “maybe you weren’t joking after all.”Said Rainbow Dash again When we approached the light we finally after a long time Twilight, who when saw us started jumping in happiness “i am so happy to see you.” she said while she was still jumping “me too, but do you know what happened to the base?” asked princess Celestia “i don’t. yesterday i was trapped in a white room and when i woke up i was in the middle of nowhere but i have something really important that i need to say.”she replied while getting more and more serious she started narrating how he has successfully build a material that deflect magic, she tried to refuse to contribute but him started torturing Spike by making Spike eat too much cinnamon which gave the impression of a burning throat. When we returned it was morning and a lot of journalists started to demand why did Princess Luna lowered the moon so much. She was forced to reveal the presence of him to the public but assuring that the weapons that he had were mostly non lethal and that we were getting more and more close to finding him. This had a strong repercussion with the social life of Equestria as everyone had fear of being kidnapped and tortured. You could see how everyone was constantly turning and sweating a little. The schools were constantly guarded as well as hospitals and train stations. Also another thing terrifying happened. When princess Luna arrived at her bedroom we find a clip which was labeled “is this non lethal for you (my world over 100 years ago)?” We haven’t saw the clip already and we are scared to do so. But it doesn’t promise anything good. Twilight diary june 11 1004 night dear diary when i woke up i was expecting to see the white room again and to do more of those tests but that was really the final test. everything was gone except the beds and the board games. Also everything was in an endless dark and couldn’t see anything. It wasn’t Equestria, there was rock beneath our hooves, but it was a lot more soft. I woke up everyone else and started using my magic to make light. everyone was scared because they all came close to me looking frenetically in all directions. Fortunately there was still some food to eat but it was all covered in ashes and was unpleasant to eat. We just had to wait and wait and wait for a loooooooooooooooooog time. Finally my eyes sparkled when i saw the guards of princess Celestia in the far distance. I emitted the brightest light i could emit and they finally saw me. I asked them where was i and they responded the moon. I know that is crazy but i adapt with it and as we were walking home i narrated a summary of what happened and his new invention that could reflect magic. They listened shocked and getting more and more preoccupied about the fate of Equestria. When we returned a lot of journalists wanted to know why did princess Luna lowered the moon so much and Celestia was forced to reveal the presence of him but saying that his weapons were mostly harmless and not that dangerous. When she returned at bed she notice a clip labeled “does this look non lethal to you (my world over 100 years ago)?” we still haven’t watch it but it must be gruesome. princess Luna diary june 12 1004 afternoon. my beloved friend diary I finally decided to see the clip by myself and see whatever horror it covered. It started with a bunch of groups of creatures marching in a line and for the first time we could see how the creatures similar to him looked more like. They had tiny eyes, ears and noses but with normal sized mouth. It was very characteristic how the nose and the mouth weren’t in the same chunk of the nose but were separated by one and another and it wasn’t stretched like it was for ponies. The music was happy but they were clearly soldiers because they all wore uniforms and a similar weapon of the stick of him with an exemption that there was a knife at the end of it. The happy music went for about a minute until a really depressing piano came and started expressing the horrific emotions that came from the video tapes. In fact the march was over and it cut to small clips that were usually long 5 seconds that has 5 things in common there were all in a cold ambient with dense fog and dirt and mud all over the place there were always one visible trench were usually the soldiers were protecting themselves. there was in the background always various sounds that were like “TRA- TRA-TRA-TRA-TRA-TRA-TRA-TRA” or just singular “PAM” or sometimes there were sounds that were “KABOOM” or “BOOM”. it contained almost every time some soldiers that were highly injured and more common just dead. They were covered in mud and dirt usually covering with their hands the injured parts, who contained usually small holes were blood came out of, for the injured when the dead still hold their weapons in end like if their body was still doing something and the died so quickly that they didn’t lost the grip. every video contained a date at the bottom with the indication of the place like :Verdun 1916 (strange since 1916 since hasn’t came) or Tannenberg 1914 or Marne 1918. i didn’t finished the video disgusted by how much horrific where sometimes the mutilated bodies so i took it and hid it in a locked chest. When everypony asked me why i was crying i always responded “the clip,the clip, i cannot forget the atrocities of the clip, it will always remain in my brain drilling all my happiness” When they asked were the clip was i never indicated the location and just walked on still thinking what the moon was it suppose to be. Maybe a war? It hasn’t happened in Equestria for over 1200 years and if it is true that war happened just 100 years ago i fear what could’ve happened in the meantime in him world. Daily gryphon news first article june 12 1004 TRAGEDY! THE SEA TOOK HIS PRAY a tragedy has happened in the equestrian sea when the hard iron family has been experiencing one of their hardest times in their lives! Hector: dad of Blisk and Eureka is 34 years old and has been married since 8 years but he had to accept the hard true that Blisk during a storm in the sea has been knocked him out and took him. He was only 7 years old and his life seemed to went pretty well until this event. “i can’t believe it that it happened so quickly” says the mother of Blisk: Ellen who has 28 years is shocked of how the sea could be so vengeful. The authorities has searched for hours and hours the little kid in the sea but no results at all has proven that all the hopes has been lost for the little boy and his family is organizing a funeral already. A NEW ENEMY? as everygryphon knows yesterday the moon has been dangerously lowered down to a point it almost touched the world. Several Equestrian journalists has investigated what was going on. It has been discovered that princess Celestia has took to the moon over 250 guards, three generals, the mane six, princess Cadence and the lord of chaos. When asked why she was doing this she was forced to reveal her secret. During the first days of june a new supposedly villain has appeared near the town of Ponyville and of the various action that he did there are: Stealing, using immense amount of gas or other things to make ponies fall Asleep (that includes all the princesses), kidnapping and torturing little fillies and even killing a manticore. Will this be the sign of the coming apocalypse? > 8) the definition of "super weapon" > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Blisk diary june ? 1004 ? pm yesterday i went fishing with my dad at the normal spot at the normal time. It was going all well until a storm hit the sea almost immediately and due to the strong wind and the high waves i’ve been throw into the sea. The currents took me far away from my father boat but thankfully my swimming lessons came in handy this time. I fought against the monstrous sea for about 5 minutes then i couldn’t sustain the fatigue and i letted go all my senses. I sank down into the sea slowly but certainly as i was already accepting my death. I started closing my eyes slowly but something grabbed me and pulled me out of the water. Whatever it was it pulled me inside a boat and wished me good luck. I started sleeping with horrible nightmare about the sea and the fishes. When i woke up i was in a well lit room with a fireplace at the left and a library in front of me. There was also at my right a very intrigued creature, sitting in a chair, which i didn’t see into any mythology book. It was biceps, had very long arms and legs and was also very slender. He was wearing elegant black clothes with a pap ion and a white jacket. He didn’t have lots of hair like gryphons but only on his head there were short and really cured hair, on his eyebrows and a little mustache. The creature was staring at me waiting to any sign of being alive. I had a little bit of fear but at the end i murmured “w..ho…a.aaa.re…Yo..u? “nothing that regards you for now, it is a more important question how are you?” “well i suppose. but i think that my leg is broken”I said a little insecure about engaging a conversation with a stranger. My leg was in fact broken because i was in like one of those bed of the hospitals. “don’t worry it will be fixed in just a week or two.”he tried to calm me as he poured some tea in a cup. “you don’t have to care about me, just took me back to my village, i know a really great doctor who can fix this in no time!” i told him as i wanted to see my parents again. “i’m sorry but i’m afraid i can’t do that, you see is not that i don’t trust doctors, no no noo, i don’t trust what the journalists will write when they are going to find you. They would probably write that i was the one that i have broke your leg and not the sea.”he said while walking back and forth in front of me. “i can say it was the sea broke my leg”i said not knowing what was his point “no, it isn’t that i believe journalists are going to not understand the situation. I believe they are going to perfectly know the situation but distort the facts for political reason and give an other reason why i am dangerous”he said with a clear tone “i understand. Wait another reason why you are dangerous? are you hiding me something?” i said demanding a answer now “well let’s be honest, i might have stole some books from princess Twilight and Cadence and kidnapped some ponies to understand better their thoughts and magic, but i didn’t really hurt someone.”he said slowly but with confidence “why you just not make peace” i again asked thinking why there was such a complicate situation. “i see how you are starting to asking a why to everything but i cannot response to everything, let’s just say sometimes what seems a small problem to someones it his a huge to another, it is a factor of mentality.” he told to me as he finally concluded my whys. “well, since you are going to stay here for a while let’s do something fun!” he said trying to be as happy as possible. We have seen what was one of his favorite movies called gold rush which was totally hilarious. I believe that never i laughed so hard that my lungs were hurting and i had problems breathing. we then played a game called Monopoly which objective was to control as many apartments as possible. Then he read me a fairly tail called Pinocchio, a puppet which obtain life but every time he lies (which is a lot) his nose became longer. He then gave me goodnight and exit the room. I swear that this creature is one of the kindest i encountered and hope this thing with the princesses ends. Twilight diary june 13 1004 afternoon. dear diary. this day the king of the gryphon kingdom visited the castle to discuss with Celestia what to do with this creature. They finally agreed to form an provisory alliance to find him and imprison him where he could be locked up and never could do harm to anypony. Princess Celestia went on the balcony to announce this success to the ponies of Equestria. But Luna was not smiling and generally being happy. She had spotted something in the far distance which was approaching fast. The thing when was passing on Canterlot dropped something and turned. Luna immediately alerted us and we focused the 100% of our magic to create an enough powerful forcefield to protect the city from the fireball, but the thing entered the forcefield before we could have complete it. Everypony was panicking, going around the city in random directions and screams and cries were heard everywhere. The object was just 100 meters above the ground and we already said goodbye to each other when unexpectedly the thing just hit the ground. Could it be that something jammed the mechanism? We teleported there to see what was going on. The object resembled an really big metal shell. While ponies returned calm the superior part of the shell opened. Then a flag rise. In it it was written “wanna see the real thing? Go to the desert and let’s agree that you won’t want to search for me, ok?” we didn’t know what it meant until a few hours later a guard came and told a shocking event. “What happened?” Said princess Celestia in her throne preoccupied of what the letter meant. “well..uhm….. it is hard to explain. Let’s just say that something really big exploded in desert.”He told us sweating “how much big?”asked Luna “ooooooohhhhh, really really really big. Some photographer made some photos here some” he told us again as he gave us the photos. “scientists have measured what seems like this mushroom cloud which is high at least 100 meters and it has been created by a least 10k of dynamite.”said the guard as pinkie pie spitted all the milk when she heard the last fact. “Wait a second, if the message said that him would have shown the real metal shell, how did he packed up so much dynamite in it?”I said confused thinking that it would be impossible to produce a so big explosion. “Also the local population even if nobody died reported to see an light from the explosion which was more intense that the sun itself and that blinded temporally some ponies. Then a really big blast of sound came and shook the tree really hard and destroyed some of them.” said again the guard while he took his helmet off “Go there and order to the scientists to investigate the explosion” commanded Celestia “we can’t, a few scientist tried to approach the cloud and they resulted vomiting blood, loosing their mane and tail, nausea and other despicable effects.” said the guard who was getting more and more preoccupied than ever “then we must act quick! Or Equestria could became just ashes”Shouted Luna with confidence and power. Everypony nodded. “i would suggest to create forcefields against this super weapon and extend at the maximum the search for this base.” Told us princess Cadence Everypony agreed and we started planning the forcefields and the search for the bases. I then took the train with my friends to Ponyville to go and see the tree of harmony. As we went on the train Applejack seemed a lot insecure. “Hey applejack, what’s wrong? Why you don’t smile?”said pinkie pie who perfectly knew her emotion “it’s just that i’am starting doubting if him is really a villain.”She responded as she watched in the horizon of the window “don’t be ridiculous applejack, did you saw what he did to our sisters” Said rarity with the tune that she feared that Applejack would go against them and doom Equestria “i know that him kidnapped them, but he didn’t physically hurt anyone, except the manticore but it could have been an instinct of fear since manticores are usually not the friendliest animals, and if he was a villain ,with his complex weapons and tools, why didn’t he eliminated us immediately and then tested the pony race?” “He is probably just waiting for the right moment to attack, haven’t you seen how he tend to terrorize everypony? He is trying to create a panic situation for an easier win”said Rainbow Dash who was getting a little angry of Applejack “but why then he saved a school and his students?”responded Applejack who was becoming also a little angry “BECAUSE HE WANTS TO FOOL PONIES LIKE YOU”said Rainbow Dash who was in competition with Applejack. They started looking into their eyes and getting closer as they murmured insults and dares, until i stopped them “GIRLS! It doesn’t matter if he his evil or not, our objective is to protect Equestria and to do so we must find him, if he is evil we will ban him in tartarous, if not we will ask him to stop terrorizing everypony, ok?” Then they calmed and finally put a smile in their faces. “Good, when we arrive there we will search every corner in Ponyville.” i told everypony “oh pardon me madame, but i think that him is not in Ponyville” said Discord “tell us where he is now!” demanded Applejack “oh i could say you the location but only if every pony asked me with a please.” said Discord with his normal sarcasm. “fine! whatever” said every pony before saying annoyed “could you please tell us where is the location of him?” “now i am satisfied, here the map with the exact location circled, goodbye”said Discord before sinking in the floor while doing the victory sign with his hand. “Well let’s just go bring a lot of guards and then…”i proposed but i didn’t finish the phrase “what is the problem twili?”asked me Applejack confused “the problem is that the base is on an island and we can’t bring a lot of boats without being noticed.”i said “then screw it, guards have never helped defeat our enemies, i am sure that with the power of friendship we can defeat everything”said Rainbow Dash as she approach me put a hoof on my shoulder and squeeze us. “we then must proceed the quest without the military”told us Rarity. When we arrived a large forcefield was raised in the sky and guards were everywhere. I hope him is like Applejack said not an evil guy because if he is one, we’ll have to deal him with the hard ways. Blisk diary june ? 1004 ? pm I woke and he wasn’t there. After a minute he came and said that he was sorry that he was late as he prepared Breakfast. I asked him why he saved me he replied “One thing if an adult dies with his complete mentality and humanness, the other is if a kid dies not being what he meant to be, not being complete with his personality, and being forgot forever”. Then i asked why he saved the school in manhattan he responded “I have seen many school shootings in schools and one thing is for sure, if nobody intervenes there is going to be at least a death in the hostages.” I asked him what he is going to do if the ponies caught him, he responded “nothing at all, if the battle is over and no way of winning i’ll surrender but it will continue if i can still win” Then he started showing me an animation cartoon named Winnie the Pooh, it was about a boy who fantasized about his peluches being real and living in the forest of the 100 acres. Then he read me a story named lorax that is about a man who became the richest man in the world after he cut all the trees but became miserable when the final one was destroyed. I liked this creature, he is very kind and offers to do a lot of things with me. I just wished he showed his kindness to everyone else instead of seeming an dangerous entity ready to take over the world. Reminder: update this diary this night. > 9) tank gryphon > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sweetie belle diary june 14 1004 afternoon. thanks to apple bloom us the cutie mark crusaders could finally try to get the best cutie mark ever, the hero cutie mark! i was so excited when she revealed where him was hiding that i needed a second explanation and so i asked “sorry i am so excited tell me again what happened” “uhhhh… i have told you already five time. My sister said to me that the base of him was in a little undiscovered island and was near this circle in the map.” she repeated once again “so are we going a rent a boat to get there?” asked Scootaloo while i was jumping in every way around. “totally!”said Applebloom with a smile in her face “but what are we doing exactly? We can’t defeat him really.” Asked Scootaloo who became serious at his own question “mmmmhhh…………what about if we convince him to stop terrorizing everyone!?” “great idea! If it works” i said “then let’s go shall we?” said Applebloom who was also very excited for the adventure. When we finally rented a boat we went out in the sea searching for the coordinates. It was foggy, dark and quiet giving an intense feeling of mystery that filled our hearth with dark. We were all fearing for ourself but still had a bit of happiness because we were all united. Finally we spotted the infamous island and landed on it. It was heavily defensed with trenches canons and other thing i can’t comprehend. Luckily the door was opened for us like if it was an trap. We hesitated to enter but then we would not accept all this time and money went into waste so we entered anyway. The design of this base was very similar to the precedent but it was more compact and cleaned than ever. While we were investigating in this labyrinth of corridors we heard something like a song murmured. We peek on the door and we saw the unthinkable. What seemed like Blisk, the gryphon that drowned, was there safe and happy. We slowly opened the door and revealed ourself. He was a little surprised at first but then he quickly calmed down and listened to us. “what are you doing here, did he save you?” asked Scootaloo “Yeah i think so, but my leg break when i was fighting the sea.” he said as he slowly moved his broken leg which was covered with chalk. “what does he do to you? Does he test you like he did to us?” i asked waiting for an horrifying answer. “not really, every once in a while he asks me some questions but overall he has been the kindest creature i ever encountered. “where his him right now?” asked Applebloom who was smiling due to the final answer of Blisk. “He told me that he was scanning in whatever way the bottom of the ocean and should be back in a…”said Blisk but he was interrupted by the sound of a shutting door and hoofsteps. “Quick he is here, hide in that closet.”he ordered really preoccupied. We heard the voice of an door opening and then this conversation “hi Blisk, would you care to inform me if someone has broke into this base?”
“no, nopony at all, i was just..just reading this book” “c’mon Blisk don’t act an idiot! You are making all of the mistakes of a common lier: you evading eye contact, you are playing with you hair, you are smiling excessively. Anyway if you negate that they are here and i find them i’ll kill them” “wait! I know where they are, in the closet, don’t kill them” When he said that that, the closet opened and i along with my friends were captured in a bag. Then we heard other voices. “ah ah you idiot. You dare to come into the predator home? then you will stay in the dark room for a while!” “No” “Wait what did you said?” “No, you don’t have the rights to imprison them, even if they came into your home they are fillies and now my friends, if you’ll throw them there i’ll come too” “seems like you have learned what good actions are” as him said that he released us from the bag. “teach them what i’ve taught you so far, they will get used to this ambient” As he said that he went away and closed the door. Finally Blisk could greet us and started showing what him has left us.
There where a series of films and really interesting things. He narrated to us how him was often so generous and had a lovely personality. I am starting to wonder why he is so kind to Blisk but not with us? Is there something wrong with ponies? I’ll ask him next time he comes. Twilight diary june 14 1004 afternoon. dear diary, Finally it was there. The moment we were waiting for a long time. With no Discord to screw things up. We were finally landing in the actual base of him! Applejack was the first to spot the island down the foggy sea and i was the first to put a hoof in the island. The door was conveniently opened. I smelled trap but i went inside anyway. the architecture of this place was really done well and the base was perfectly clean. We checked every door until we heard something coming from one of them. Celestia busted the door, and readied her super spell attack, expecting him. What actually was behind the door was Applebloom, Scootaloo, Sweetie Belle and the thought dead Blisk watching a film. “What are you doing here? don’t you know the danger that lyes ahead?”said Princess Luna pretty angry The three fillies made a sigh of embarrassment, but not Blisk. “c’mon now, get up, turn off whatever you are watching, and walk away especially my sister”said Applejack that was also angry. the three little fillies turned off the film and went away revealing that Blisk had an broken leg. Everypony immediately was really preoccupied and started asking questions like “did him done this to you?” or “are you ok” or “what other terrible thing did him done to you?” He finally answered back “calm down everything is okay, this is the result of the powerful sea who stoked me. Him actually helped me by giving me cures and making me happy a lot he is actually very…” “Is not time for description, where is him now?!” interrupted rudely Cadence, something that wasn’t from her personality. “well i think he leaved the base but i need to say that he is very…”Blisk was interrupted again by this time even the most good pony in the world, Celestia “Ok, Cadence remain there and guard for Blisk, the others will search with me if we can intercept him in time before he goes away. We then started to run towards the exit and took the royal boat to search for him. Unfortunately It was very foggy and the boat was too slow. We are now going to head back to ponyville hoping to continue the expedition tomorrow. Blisk diary, june 14 1004 afternoon. This day they finally found me. All the princesses and mane 6 discovered the base and entered it. They took my three friends and stopped me from saying what i thought about him. Cadence remain with me to control that nothing would have gone bad. “Cadence you have to listen to me, him is not that bad, he said to me that he is acting this way to keep fear in others to not let them go against him.” “Blisk, he has probably brainwashed you, him wants you to believe he and his people are good to take Equestria more easily.”she responded with an total indifference “he didn’t show himself as good, he even said his race is one of the most evil and that he comprehend that he seems evil”i said to convince her “Sorry Blisk but Equestria impression comes first of yours” she again said with total indifference to my opinion. As she spoke i felt or rather not felt something. The pain of my leg was gone and maybe i could have walked again! So i asked to Cadence if at least she could have made me something to eat because i was really hungry and when she requested where the kitchen was i indicated her it was in the most remote place downstairs. I waited for a moment and i finally took my diary and started walking even if that leg was a little weak. I went to the boat of the cutie mark crusaders and i sailed it with my abilities learned from my father and then i went into the open sea. I am currently navigating throughout the immense sea not knowing what happened to Cadence. I need to stop him and them to prevent a massive war to broke up between the humans and the ponies. Twilight diary june 14 1004 afternoon. dear diary we finally went off the boat and headed to Ponyville. We took two chariots one gold and the other silver. While the guards were galloping pinkie pie asked me“Hey twilight now that i think about it how could him build so many bases in so little time? does the bogieman stole things for him? or does he have a hidden magic ability?” i then i thought about it for a second and responded. “i presume the ones of his race gave him supplies trough portals and he has started building 1 year ago without being noticed.” she then said “okay dokey” we were going really fast until Celestia ordered to stop. The stop was so unpredictable that pinkie pie went flying out of the chariot and by doing a backflip she landed perfectly. “what happened?, is something wrong?” i asked speaking really fast, sweating and breathing fast. “yes there is something really wrong”said Luna. We exited the chariot and without the golden one in front of us we could finally see clearly the scene. “wait! I remember, those are what him calls tanks and he said they are for military uses.” In fact there were an entire line of those things which was so long we didn’t see were it came from. They moved like the fiery cars but more slow even if they had more wheels, implying that it was heavier with his body who was all in metal. There was also on the top of the tank what seemed a small but long cannon attached to an part of the tank which could move. We were thankful that there was an forcefield around Ponyville but unfortunately the line stopped, a tank went a little further. And fired a cannon ball at the forcefield. The cannon ball was special because it broke into thousand of little pieces who caused an effect similar of the electricity that broke the forcefield immediately. The line began once again its march against Ponyville as all the ponies closed their doors and shut their windows while the guards without orders hided. Celestia teleported us to the balcony and said. “Now this is a critical state, we’ll need all the magic we can gather” “WHAT ARE YOU DOING THERE GET OFF THE ROAD, YOU ARE GOING TO DIE!” we heard coming from one of the houses. When we took a look what was going on we saw Blisk standing in front of the road not moving. We started encouraging to move out of the way. But he stood there doing nothing except for saying. “Do it, you don’t have the guts to do it” then it happened the unthinkable… > 10) a dove in a lion suit (good ending) > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- …the tanks stopped and turned around. Ponyville was saved and just by a little kid. We teleported down to ask what was he thinking he was doing. He assured us that he wanted to say to us that him never hurt he and that he was just really shy in an aggressive way. Just a moment later Cadence arrived. “What do you think you are doing!?” told to Blisk while she was still galloping we then narrated the brave action of this little gryphon as she listened really carefully. Then she said “What an idiot that i am, i am the princess of love but still i didn’t want to believe Blisk”
“Now how are we going to fix this misunderstanding?” said spike who in the meantime exited the door. “Maybe i can help” is what we heard from the highest balcony of my castle where we saw him “Go down here if you don’t want to be a coward!”i screamed not wanting any other way he could get away. He went down and finally we could see him. He had his typical Gas mask but he hadn’t the long coat that was replaced by a lighter suit. “Now i learned my lesson: never ever fight fear with fear or those fears will become so big that they would not be able to control” he said in resignation “And we learned ours, we have to listen to the experience of others to judge better someone we have not seen yet. Then princess Celestia went in my castle and closed the doors. When they exited they have both signed a contract that said that Celestia and the citizen would try to be more appreciative to the human people (the race of him) if Him would have dismantled all of his bases except one but could have an home in Ponyville. I actually saw that he had a name since he signed the contract. His name was Giovanni Fellini. > 11) it's just money (bad ending) > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- twilight diary march 8 2030 afternoon. It has been 10 years since i wrote the last page of my diary and i didn’t have the will to continue it, but because i am about to die of cancer i am going to write it. Blisk was standing here but the tank didn’t stop. I emitted an ray to knock Blisk in a safer position, and then i started the battle. I don’t remember how the battle exactly played out, but i do remember how all of my friends died. Fluttershy was crushed by the balcony of my castle, after it was destroyed by a tank shell. Celestia took an tank shell right in the shoulder which killed her immediately before exploding in a fountain of blood. Rainbow Dash was trying to use the rainboom but she was hit by a bullet in her wing which caused her to lose control and hit a tree. Pinkie Pie, Rarity and Applejack were mowed down by the machine gun as their corpses deformed and became indistinguishable malformed by the blood and injuries. Luna was the one that fought better against the tanks, she died when a tank shell hit an wooden house while she was in and blocked the entrance and exit causing her to exhale the deadly smoke. Cadence arrived later and she died when a tank shell hit the ground below her and obliterated two of her legs causing her to bleed to death.
I was the only one spared because him needed someone to announce his superiority. So later that day i had to surrender in name of Equestria to him. My brother suicided and all the ponies where in chaos. Quickly Equestria became a puppet state of the USA. They say they brought democracy but it is not true because even if everyone i know votes the socialist party we still are for 10 years governed by the conservative. The multinationals abuse our resources because in earth they are little and in Equestria there are lot of minerals. The smog is unimaginable, so dense that is impossible to see throughout it, we would need a gas mask but it is too expensive. All of the dragons (including Spike) and other intelligence Creatures which didn’t have land were either completely isolated or killed. Other ponies didn’t make it like the cutie mark crusaders who when trying to help Big mac in a factory fell in the machinery and where crushed by it, or Flash sentry who tried to use gorilla warfare to defeat the humans but after an ambush he was shot dead in the lungs, or even worse was the faith of Cheerilee that was publicly executed by him because she taught fillies to rebel against the humans. So i am the only one who can still remember what Equestria was once but it is up for the younger ponies to save the few things that have remained.
