by Crescent Edge

First published

A colt with suprising abilities. From summoning creatures with divine powers to a magic called Spellblade. His life is always a twist at every turn as well as answering the mystery that has been in his head. Why does he have his abilities?

Quick Silver was born in a place sealed in a rift in space. There he was raised and lived a normal life. After his family was murdered he is sent to live with his aunt in a town called Ponyville. Upon his arrival he learns that his abilities are not normal. Throughout his stay he listens to a voice telling him that an evil born before light is looking for him. Further explanation shows the reason is it is looking for a host and his most darkest secret is why it wants him. Even he doesn't know his fathers history and finding out maybe the only way to survive. The problem is he must risk body, mind, and soul to discover a lost magical power that could put the world and light itself as we know it at jeopardy. However he wont be alone all seven of his friends and one dragon will help and discover that they also play a role in this event.
With this new arrival Princess Twilight Sparkle believes that harmony and friendship will prevail over this evil but when Discords soul is found trapped inside of a book, she begins to realize she was wrong. Fluttershy then comes to the castle of friendship to exclaim she saw Discord spying on the new colt in town even though Discords soul is trapped within the bindings of the book.
Teen rating because there will be ponyfied cussing and some fights but no blood. There will be a lot of characters and reveals of past secrets Quick Silver will learn about his family. Cross over because of a few game references (Final Fantasy V and Bleach) also a few of my own incantations their is eight and they are titled: Firo (Fire), Hydrin (Water), Terron (Earth), Areis (Air), Holyigus (Light), Shomora (Dark), Tempral (Time), and Vortexum (Space)

Please feel free to leave comments they will be greatly appreciated.

A new place, lots of new Faces, And a big mistake.

My name is Quick Silver and I am nine years old. I am a Pegasus colt that cannot fly because my bones aren’t hollow and my wings are what’s called flipped feathered meaning my wings don’t bend like they normally should they act more like a second pair of forelegs. My coat is a simmering opal color and my mane and tail are a spider-web silver. I tend to keep it long as my mom says it looks better long. My eyes are a brilliant amber color. I was born in a small village called Meteor Meadow’s and never left it. The village ran off an elder policy, the elder was wisest in the village and he always had the last say in any major decision. The elder explained that the village was sealed in a rift in space so no outsider could enter only he had the power needed to send people out.

It started off as a normal day I went to school and when I came home my world was decimated. I walked in on my family laying there gone, lifeless. I ran throughout the house hoping to find someone ok and breathing. Every corpse I passed made me feel hopeless, and no room I ran into showed sings of a survivor. Everywhere I looked the sky blue walls where stained crimson and shadows clung to the little rubies that clung to the walls.

The elder then explained that I now needed to go live with my mother’s sister, some mare named Ditzy. He would transport me there when I was ready. With only Ōrora to remember my family I close my eyes and tell him I am ready to go.

I open my eyes and check to see if Ōrora came through with me. My hoof runs up the sheath and makes contact with the hilt. The door in front of me swings open and I come nose to nose with a young filly maybe nine with a blond mane and lavender-greyish coat. I see the yellow orbs widen in surprise and I try to be friendly. “Hell-. “ My mouth is suddenly sealed shut.

I hear a near screaming, “MOM!” After a few minutes an older looking mare comes into view and I see she looks similar to my mom.

“Quick Silver? What are you doing here? Where is Flare Strike and Silver Wind?” My head looks down at the mention of my parents as my ears nearly fall off and hit the ground.

“If you know him could you let him in?” My eyes widen at the sound of the stallions voice. He is brown with a dark brown mane and for the life of me can’t figure out why he is wearing a tie.

Siting waiting for them to return while being starred at by a filly you can tell has questions is not fun. Finally they come back and the mare speaks,"My sister was killed? I did not know, I am very sorry. You can live here with us my name is Ditzy but most call me Derpy that is your cousin Dinky and he is my husband you may call him the Doctor. The Doctor has a few questions for you, you may choose to answer them or not.”

“First is about that thing, why do you have it?” He pointed at Ōrora.

I responded,” My dad was a blacksmith back home. We were at the village hospital and a meteor landed in the back yard the night of my birth. The next day he opened it up because they are common there and he said inside was a cluster of crystal that glowed with every hue of the rainbow. So he worked and when I turned five he gave me the finished product telling me I would always be safe as long as I had it.”

He took a moment to process it then asked,” Now with your wings?”

I smiled I knew this was coming," the joint is flipped. You know how a regular joint faces front when closed? Well mine faces my flank.”

“The letter also mentioned school, do you have special needs or do you prefer home schooling?” He asked me trying to be polite.

I tried not to laugh as I responded, “public school is fine.”

Ditzy told me and Dinky to go play while they talked. I followed Dinky because she told me she wanted me to meet her friends. I trotted till we came upon a house in a giant tree. We entered and I gazed upon three fillies and colts. The fillies she introduced: one butter yellow with red mane and a bow as Apple Bloom, an alabaster unicorn with a two toned mane as Sweetie Bell, and an orange pegasus with a purple mane and little wings as Scootaloo. The colts she introduced as: a light grey almost white pegasus with a dark mane as Rumble, a brown colt with a darker brown mane as Button Mash, and an alabaster pinto colt with brown blotches and a brown mane as Pipsqueak. She explains that they are her friends. They all take turns saying hi then we are interrupted by the house being attacked.

Apple Bloom suddenly screams, “Timberwolves” and they all take off running and Apple Bloom trips on a root and has a small bruise appear on her foreleg.

I stand there feeling an old instinct takes over. Without thinking I start reciting a spell my dad said to only use in emergency. Tears of fallen, blood of loved ones past and present. Join together and rain smoke as one, restore the heart of this land by burning those who accept darkness and heal those who embrace the light, Firo #83 Pompeii. . As I finish everypony around stares in amazement as lava falls from the sky and all the Timberwolves perish as everypony feels revitalized by the rain touching them even the bruise on Apple Bloom’s leg disappearing. As I turn to look at them they stare in bewilderment. “What?” is my response to their faces.

“How did you do that Quick Silver?” Dinky asked me and I realize I have some explaining to do.

Some light to pierce the darkness

“Now I come from-“that was all I could say before (crash) and the door was flying off the hinges. The last thing I remember seeing was mahogany wood painted a lovely shade of red.

Laying in a darkened room I hear a voice echoing from every direction. “An ancient evil has awakened, your family’s lives it has taken. It hungers to corrupt your soul, I will always be near you little foal. The only way to beat it was forgotten long ago, I am the only spirit who remembers how so. I must ask you to find the light that burns inside of you, only then can you find the light that burns true. I never meant for my descendants to become involved, for it was a problem I had thought I had already solved. I never thought my small mistake, would have caused my last descendent all this heartache. I must teach you the clan’s most powerful incantation, to alleviate the light’s devastation. Before you learn the spell you must cast, you must be enlightened upon the bloodlines past….”

Light shining down on me as I am laying on a mattress. My head is spinning and I can make out seventeen silhouettes. As colors come into focus I recognize seven of them from the clubhouse. Dinky walked up to me and started to explain the situation.

“You’re awake Quick Sliver! Well here are some ponies that want to talk to you after you got hit by the door. They are-” she pointed at a dark blue mare with wings and a horn with a mane that resembled the night sky, “Princess Luna,” she pointed at an alabaster mare with a horn and wings and a multi-toned mane, “Princess Celestia,” she pointed at a pink mare with wings and a horn with a two-toned mane that had yellow and light purple in it, “Princess Cadence,” She pointed at a lavender mare with wings and a horn with a black mane with a single purple-pinkish stripe in it, “Princess Twilight Sparkle,” she pointed at a teenage dragon with purple scales and green spines and emerald eyes, “her number one assistant Spike the dragon.” Her hoof moved to a tan Pegasus mare with a bright pink mane, “That’s Fluttershy.” She motioned toward a white unicorn mare with a curly purple mane, “That’s Sweetie Bells sister Rarity.” Her hoof moves again and now it is facing a yellow-orange mare with a blond braded mane and tail, “That’s Apple Blooms sister Applejack.” Another flick of her hoof and now its facing a sky-blue Pegasus with a mane that shown all seven colors of the rainbow, “That’s Rainbow Dash.” That’s when it happened, all I saw was a blur.

“Hi Quick Silver haven’t seen you in a while, how have you been?” I am face to face with a bright pink pony with an equally bright pink mane.

“Pinkie get off of him, he just… What do you mean by haven’t seen you in a while? Do you know him?” Twilight asked her.

“Well yea I do. He comes from Meteor Meadows, and he was a best friend to myself. Why did you ask me if I knew him? I never forget a friend.” Was her response as she makes a cupcake appear from out of nowhere and hands it to me saying. “Its phoenix cherry flavored enjoy. I’m late for my shift and need to go so we will have to catch up later. Bye-bye!” with that she just seemed to disappear.

Spike was sitting there staring at this kid with a feeling he had never felt before and it was making him wonder why he has it and what about this kid is making him feel this way.

“Well I am awful sorry I knocked you out. I heard a scream and I just wanted the make them girls safe. I didn’t mean for your head to get hurt. Would you forgive me?” Came a very emotion filled response from Applejack.

“Yes of course I will it was my fault for not ducking.” My wing then unfolds a little to feel my back for Ōrora which is not there. Now I am panicking because my only connection to my family is missing. My head starts to turn every direction trying to find it. I hear myself speak, “Hātorinku: Hikari no saiken” (Heart-link: Bond of light) as I finish a stream of light is released from my chest and it slithers around the room.

Celestia sees it coming toward her and she puts up a shield wanting to keep what it is looking for hidden but it passes through her shield and wraps around to reach behind her and grabs the thing she was hiding. Every notices a sheathed blade wrapped in stream of light and floating back to its rightful owner.

“Someone explain what happened please because this is hurting my brain!” Rainbow Dash finally spoke up.

Spike on the other hand was currently in a flashback,

You can’t do that, it hasn’t even hatched yet.

You are pathetic why stand up for an egg?

Because that egg has a light in it that can change the world.

You and your thing about lights, oops I dropped it.

No!

And you can’t even fly how will you save it? Hummm?

My inner light act like a grapple and save the thing I care for.

What non-sense you can’t do magic, you can’t even fly, and you are a waste of breath.

Hātorinku: Hikari no saiken!

How did you… YOU ARE A FREAK! The elder should banish you.

I was always alone but I met you and I wasn’t anymore. It is too dangerous for you to be here anymore. Maybe the elder can send you to a place where you can live a happy life. A place safe from here where you can let your light shine. But for now rest and be at ease and dream of home while you listen to my lullaby. When you wake you will be in the place that will accept your light.

For every flower has a field and every mountain has its snowy peak. Once your light has been unsealed you will find the place you seek

Spike now back in reality is watching this kid and realized why his heart of all things feels the way it does. This kid, who gave him up to give him the best life possible and saved him from death, has known nothing but sadness and loneliness for almost his life. Has a gift in his eyes to see light in the darkest of times and makes light when nothing but darkness existed. Then he heard a whisper with a motherly tone.

"He who can see the brightest of lights in the darkest of times, and create the purest of lights with the darkest of shadows is worthy of the most powerful of spells.”

Twilight turned to look at Spike, while everypony stars at Quick Silver hugging his blade, who eyes show a new look to Twilight. “Spike what did you say? Why are you looking a Quick Silver like that and what is up with your eyes.” Spike gave no response he just walked up and kissed Quick Silvers forehead. A voice rang through the room and every soul heard its cry.

“Magic I was given by Novitra Silvermane that she sealed with her own life, I send you through my son into her last descendent. Rest within her bloodline once more. For as my last act as Queen I fulfil my vow to my closest friend and my only sister. Dragon Technique last breath art. Shīru tensō (Seal transfer). Once you have broken the seal you wield the greatest of all magic, Saigo (Ultima).

Upon the voice finishing runes surround the two and everypony sees the writing enter Quick Silvers chest and the two collapse in unison.

“Well that happened, would any princess care to explain what happened and who that was and why they were talking through Spike-wikey?” Rarity asked sounding very freaked out.

“Tia please tell me what I think that was all about is false and I am just over thinking it? Please answer me! TIA!” Luna yelled at her sister who was staring off into space.

“Sister remember the story that mother used to tell us about? The one about a Pegasus mare who gave her own life to banish a creature that existed before light itself? The one you had me tell you the night you came back home.” Was Celestia’s answer still looking into space.

“Yes the tale described her as an angel whose coat bear a glow that was too pure to be called white and whose mane was that of the most breath-taking silver. The legend went any-creature that met her amber gaze could see how they would pass. Why would I forget?” Luna responded looking puzzled.

“Because my dear sister I feel as though the fight was never finished. Mom told me on her death bed that the creature was sealed but not beaten. Look upon this child does he not resemble the hero?” Was Celestia’s comeback.

Meanwhile right outside the room overhearing everything was one hyperactive pony mumbling to herself, “Well, well my dear sister. What have you planned for? All that time ago you left and I promised I would keep an eye on Quick Silver, but dear sister you never told me what you foresaw his future holding. How do you feel knowing that the soul destined to finish that battle all that long ago is a foal that knows nothing about his destiny?” Taking a baked pastry out of her mane and bit into it smiling thinking to herself, “Welcome home my little nephew, welcome to my family Quick Silver,” and with that bounced away.

Spikes Enlightenment

Spike’s eyes opened to survey the area he is in. All he can take notice of is a silhouette sitting about five feet away faced away from him. His first instinct was to get up and prepare to defend himself. Before he got up the figure stood up and turned to face him. Spike could not see the figure’s face because as it came into the light, radiating off of Spike, he noticed the figure was wearing a cloak with the hood up. The figure then reached out a hand toward Spike.

“Young hatchling it is nice to see you once more. I see that you have grown well and I could not be prouder. Let me help you up and onto your feet. You probably have a lot of questions. Well I guess I should explain where you are and how you got here. First let me introduce myself, my name is Regunao Silverscale. I know your name Spike, and seeing you know puts me at peace. You are here to understand the bond you share. Quick Silver’s life has been guarded by your magic from the time you two were separated before you hatched. Before you now are two books,” They appeared floating one was a gold color with ruby writing that read Mage Veil And the other was silver with blue writing that read Sage Veil, “One will awaken the powers you gained form him and the other will awaken more elemental based magic’s. You may only choose one. Choose now.”

“Which does what? Do you expect me to choose blindly? Without the needed knowledge I might choose wrong. I do not want to risk making a wrong choice. I need an explanation before any choice. Unless I get one I cannot trust myself to make a blind choice.” Spike answered as the hooded figure started to chuckle lightly making him feel uneasy.

“I could not express my gratitude to your choice. Seeking knowledge for you choices makes me feel an indescribable amount of joy. Here is you explanation,” she pointed at the book the read Mage Veil, “A mage draws their power from nature and themselves. Relying on only themselves they live a solitary life trying to keep the balance of light and dark. They excel at using elemental based spells. Rarely they ask or seek help.” She pointed at the one titled Sage Veil, “A sage draws their power from similar places as a mage, but a sage can also draw power from nearby friends who want to give them power. Sages have a variety of different spells at their disposal. Unlike a mage, sages can call upon powers that live in other realms they are called summons. Mages focus their magic on themselves. Sage's, depending on the friends nearby, often uses their magic on others before themselves. That is your explanation you asked for. Now you must choose.”

“Now I understand if I choose the mage my magic will be about myself, however if my choice is sage my magic will be focused on my friends. My friends are important to me. I choose Sage Veil.” The book was then absorbed into him. “Now what? Do I wake up or…?” Spike lingered off.

“Now I reveal your bond to Quick Sliver and you will see how you are linked to him. You must understand why he came to you and how you guided him the whole time. First you need to know one thing, he saved you three times you were an egg each time. The first time was when you rolled out of the nest and landed in his school bag,” A window appeared and Spike saw his egg-self as it rolled out of a dragons nest and slid down the mountainside. It nearly avoided becoming scrambled only to slide into a young Quick Slivers school bag. The young colt oblivious to the stowaway stood up and put on his bag and started to head home. “If he wasn’t there your egg would have turned cold and you would have died. He found you in his bag when he got home and he kept you warm. The next was at a cliff-side.” The scene changed to one near a cliff-side with a Macintosh sized Pegasus colt balancing Spikes egg on an extended wing over the cliff and keeping a young Quick Sliver from reaching it. “That colts name is Toxic Blood and his attitude was as his name suggested venomous he is the towns school bully. Your bond was proven in that moment he dropped you the incantation Hātorinku: Hikari no saiken cannot be used without having a bond as secure as him and you at that moment.” Spike watched the egg fall and a stream of light come out of Quick silvers chest and shoot down to catch the egg centimeters off of the ground retracting it and putting it out of Toxics reach.

Spike heard the colt say, "How did you… YOU ARE A FREAK!” Spike then watched Quick be pummeled in front of him without being able to help him and only when Quick was barley holding on to life did the colt walk away saying, “The elder should banish you.”

“Then you saved him and your bond was proven to be destined.” She told him as he watched on.

Quick Silver stumbled over to the egg and mumbled something before writing a note and sticking it to the egg. Quick then stumbled over to the cliff and closed his eyes. Whispering to nothing in particular, “The world will be brighter without me.” With his whisper complete he prepared to step forward.

“STOP PLEASE DON’T DO IT YOU SHOULDN’T DO THAT YOU ARE SO YOUNG! WHY ISN’T HE LISTENING? PLEASE STOP! DON’T DIE! DON’T GIVE UP!” Yelled Spike as he turned to look at Regunao and asked her, “Why doesn’t he listen. We have to save him.”

“Because you save him Spike, You save him several times.” Was her reply.

“I see you care, well thank you I…j-just needed s-someone to s-show me I b-belong in this-s world and-d that I’m not a m-mistake.” Spike turned his head to see Quick Sliver holding onto the egg crying.

“He will still send you away and that is how Celestia will find you. That is where you leave him but you still save him several more times. The elder sent you away via teleport spell. Now see the other times you save him.” Regunao explained

Spike saw a flash of light and saw a slightly older but still young Quick Sliver standing on the side of the cliff on his hind legs with his eyes closed leaning towards his death and just before he fell Spike saw himself embrace Quick Sliver in a hug. Spike saw another flash and he saw Quick in a closet holding a bottle in his hooves and as he lifts it to his lips Spike is suddenly there holding Quick in a tight as Quick is crying into Spikes chest. After another flash he is staring at Quick staring at a broken mirror his eyes are bloodshot with his face cut up and nose pouring forth blood . Spike watches helplessly as Quick takes a shard in his teeth and places it on his leg just above his hoof, just as he pulls, Spikes claw shields him and pulls him into another hug and this time Spike kisses his forehead and tells him that the world would be dim without his light. As Spike sits there comforting the sobbing Pegasus he lets loose a purring sound and rocking the distressed colt.

"The second time at the cliff was after Toxic let the village know of his powers he was made fun of and no one was there to support him. The closet was because Toxics older brother upset and needed to vent his anger and Toxic told him who to channel that anger onto and that bottle in his hands was concentrated bleach. The bathroom was because Toxics Girlfriend left him and he was filled with anger and saw Quick as a defenseless target so he beat him in the bathroom. He was found about two hours after the attack. He was then taken to the village hospital and was placed in surgery. He had: three fractured ribs, a broken leg, several lacerations throughout his body, and the worst part was the left lung it was completely pierced through by a broken rib. They said the amount of blood loss should have killed him.” Regunao said solemnly.

“He still lived? How? Why?” Spike pleaded staring with open eyes.

Because you wanted him to. Now you know how you guided him here now you must know why. His family was slaughtered because of the magic they wield. They knew he was the target so they sent him to school early and while he was gone. the enemy sent minions to kill the family expecting him to be there. None of them believed they would survive. I-I should have been there. I-I failed them,” Regunao started to cry, “It is now up to you. Only you can be there when he needs you.”

A door appeared and she motioned spike towards it. “Where does this lead?” Asked a scared Spike.

“It leads toward your brother Spike, Dragons believe those who hatch them are family. Now go Spike go to your brother.” She said as he opened the door and as he took a step into the door he herd, “Go my son and protect the light.”

He woke up and looked at Twilight and said, “Where is my brother?”

The Dream and the gifts

Ditzy was sitting with her parents at the hospital. Many thoughts were running rampant in her head, what happened at the club house? What was that light that surrounded Spike and Quick? What was that voice talking about? How was Quick Involved with this? Why did the princesses suddenly leave after Celestia whispered something to Luna? Is Spike and Quick ok? Why did they do that anyway?

“Honey take Dinky home. I will watch Quick. I will see you two tomorrow.” Derpy said with a voice as cold as an iceberg. The Doctor turned his head and noticed the cold glare coming off of Derpy’s eyes, but what made him scared is that her eyes were normal. “Dinky go with your farther, and he will bring you back after school tomorrow. Do not fight with him.” Dinky turned to notice her mom had not taken her gaze off of Quick.

“Yes mom.” Dinky responded and she and her dad left without another word. As they left the hospital she asked, “Daddy what has mommy so upset? Did you know mommy has another family? Daddy? Are you listening? Hello?”

“Yes I knew and she told me that you should know when you can understand why she left. It was not an easy choice for her to make her sister was a pony with a gift called star sight. Star sight is not a usual gift, for it technically doesn’t exist for creatures. It is usually held by spirits.” He stated and motioned for Dinky to sit on a bench with him as he explained. “Star Sight is the power to see up to a point in the future. Think of the future as a set of corridors, now picture the choices as doorways. Star sight is the ability to see the corridor but not what lies past the doorway. Do you understand?” Dinky nodded. “Well we should get home soon. You have school tomorrow.” The Doctor helped her get up and carried her home and put her to bed without a word from the little filly.

Hopping on her friends bed Scootaloo was in deep thought and not realizing what she was preforming. Mumbling to herself about something incoherently while Apple Bloom was sitting on the floor doing the same. Sweetie Bell walked in and took notice of Scootaloo’s jumping. She was doing complete flips without concentrating. Sweetie took a moment before realizing something else, Scootaloo was not only doing perfect flips but she was spinning quickly while in the air. Preforming an advanced style of gymnastics with the greatest of ease without even focusing. Turning her attention toward Apple Bloom and saw a pile of petals next to her. Taking notice of the rose in her hooves and how she kept plucking them off and to Sweeties astonishment they would just grow back.

“Ok girls I allowed this sleepover because it’s the last day of summer but you all need to get to bed. I don’t want you young ‘ins to be up all night.” Came an old wise voice from down the hall.

“Yes Granny.” All three of the young fillies replied. Scootaloo jumped off the bed and landed on the floor using only three legs. Sweetie blinked a few times trying to comprehend how Scootaloo just landed that jump.

“Well we should go to bed. I guess we can go see Quick in the morning.” Apple Bloom stated. As she finished all three of them collapsed in tandem.

Thunderlane was cooking dinner in the kitchen while his younger brother was hanging out with his friends. His thoughts were disrupted when a sudden noise caught his attention. The sound of boiling water starting to overflow out of the pan. Acting quickly he managed to take it off the burner and sighing to himself he went back to his thoughts. Only to be stopped again by a voice right next to his ear.

“You sure are busy tonight Thunder. Why do you seem so distracted? In the whole time I’ve known you, you never have seemed this distracted. My sis is watching the fillies with granny, so I can be here for you. Do you need some help? You seem tenser than normal.” Following the whisper a light nibble came to happen on the tip of Thunders ear. Thunder looked at the pot and saw the reflection of his closest friend and secret love. The red coat and straw blond mane told him it was Mackintosh. “The kids are busy in the Rumble’s room, so I can help with dinner and reliving some tension,” His right hoof already starting to massage Thunderlane’s back.

“Will you stay the night? That would be helpful. Buttons mom is out of town for a few days and Pipsqueak is staying with us for a month. Pipsqueaks Mom in over in Las Pegasus for some reason. She left abruptly.” Thunderlane asked already feeling relaxed by the massage.

“Sure, of course I will. You go hang with the colts I will make dinner. You need to relax, maybe see if you can play a video game.” Mac replied before a (THUD, THUD, THUD) came from above. “I wonder what that was.” Left Mac’s lips as he started toward Rumble’s room. Opening the door showed the answer all three colts were asleep. “Well that makes dinner for two and a night to ourselves.” Mac though out loud while walking back to the kitchen.

“What was the noise?” Thunderlane asked him.

“The kids were so tired they fell asleep just now. We are alone now so let’s have a calm night where we spend some much needed time together.” Mac said with a devious grin.

“That sounds lovely.” Was Thunderlane’s response.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A room painted white held seven souls and one dragon. They looked around and tried to ask each other where they are but freaked out when the realized they could not talk. A voice began to echo throughout the room. It was unlike any other they had heard before. It was as deep as the ocean, as tough as the mountain, as gentle as a spring breeze, but it was passionate as a fiery love.

“Magic has been given to you. Based off of your soul and your inner light the powers of nature, life, destruction and aroma are yours to command.” It spoke as Apple Bloom, Sweetie Bell, Scootaloo, and Rumble started to glow.

Another voice echoed throughout the room now. This one sounded as old as time, as mysterious as the night sky, as secretive as a shadow, and as truthful as an innocent newborn.

“Magic has been released inside of you. Powers of light from new places and powers that haven’t been seen for many millennia now rest inside of you. Altering the clock, bending reality, darkness that serves light, and the purest of light.” As it finished Dinky, Spike, Pipsqueak, and Button began to glow.

A fused voice spoke out, “In time you will master these powers. For now know that you are the only hope for this world. Now go Bearers of light. Terron the essence of earth, Hydrin the essence of water, Firo the essence of fire, Areis the essence of air, Shomora the essence of darkness, Holyigus the essence of light, Tempral the essence of time, and Vortexum the essence of space. You eight now carry these essences. Here now I release the light.” A bright flash and they were waking up in their rooms like nothing happened. The CMC awake in Apple Blooms room. Rumble, Button, and Pipsqueak in rumbles room. Spike in Twilight’s Castle. Dinky waking up in her bed.

All of them saying in unison scattered around Ponyville, “WHAT!”

“Apple Bloom you and your friends need to git’on over to the school house. You can’t be late on the first day back from summer. I packed y’all some lunch. Breakfast is on the table.” After finishing Granny went over to her rocker and promptly took a nap.

Upon reaching the bottom of the stairs all three filly’s said, “Thank you very much.” After leaving the farm they ran into the boys. Apple Bloom being the first to ask, “Did y’all have some weird dreams? I had one where it was the seven of us with Spike and Dinky in a white room with voices-“

Rumble cut her off and replied in a tone filled with fear, “It talked about light and magical powers from other places and how everyone in that room happened to hold an essence of light? YOU HAD THE SAME DREAM AS US?” Everypony was staring at each other with looks that would make a manticore run in confusion. After Button managed to get them all to remember to get to class, they continued walking to school without another word.

Standing in front of the classroom was Pinkie as soon as she saw them she took notice of the tension surrounding them. After every colt and filly was inside the classroom she announced, “Hello class I’m Pinkie Pie and I will be your substitute teacher. Mrs. Cheerilee is in Manehatten for a teaching lesson to make teachers better at teaching. I’m gonna be filling in for her for a time being, seeing how busy my friend Twilight is. So what does the class wish to do? I know how about free time today to talk to your friends about how your summer was or any freaky dreams.” As the kids got up to meet their friends and talk, only all members of the CMC, except Dinky she was running late to school, wondered about that last statement made by their pink friend.

“Well what should we do now? Does anyone have an idea to get our cutie marks?” Scootaloo always knew how to go straight to the subject. With that phrase let into the air the world around them felt like ice. No one saw Dinky approaching. As she got near she felt the cold aura around them and knew something was wrong.

“Hey friends. How are all of you? I had the strangest dream last night involving all of you. We were in a white room and… Why does everyone look like I just said Celestia died?” Dinky was incapable of understanding why they looked like that.

“YOU HAD THE SAME DREAM?!” Came from all the other members.

Causing all of them to jump came a voice filled with malice and mischief, “Well, well little ponies. It seems that you had a premonition or are just very close. You best be careful, tis believed that souls sharing a dream are bonded.” They turned to see Discord standing there in the doorway. He turned to face pinkie and said, “Twilight needs you so I’m here to take over. She said it was urgent, so I would run if I were you.” As he finished Pinkie disappeared into the teacher’s desk and vanished. Shifting his attention to the class he announced, “Class we are heading outside for some air.” With a snap of his talons all the children were transported outside. “Have fun and stay safe.” With that he sat in a lawn chair the appeared out of nowhere and a goblet floated into his hand.

After several hours of kids playing and the CMC talking about their dream a scream pierced through the heavens. Everyone turned to see a filly running for her life from a manticore. Apple Bloom turned to see Discord and to her astonishment he was nowhere to be seen. “We need to help her.” Rumble announced but Apple Bloom slapped him and retorted.

“If we save her, who will save us? I love ya, but ya can be indescribably stupid sometimes ya know?” Sweetie noticed a movement and shouted.

“Look over there who is that? I never have seen them before.”

The figure jumped from the forest and grabbed the filly. It landed and turned to face the beast, Dinky took notice that the figure stood on two legs, and said, “From the depths of hell cast your gaze on this creature, Catoblepas!” Upon the announcement of the name a creature appeared next to them and opened its eyes.

The moment the manticore’s eyes met the gaze of the creature the manticore turned to solid stone. The CMC froze and refused to move.

“Is there anything else you need?” The creature said as it turned to face him eyes closed.

“No my friend. I thank you for your help. I hate to ask you for it.” Was the figures response as he looked at the filly in their arms. “She seems to be unconscious. Do you know if that attack was an accident or something else? The evidence points to an accident but my inner light is telling me it was no accident.”

“Your light is right. When his eyes met mine for the brief moment before he died I saw his heart and it was corrupted by sinister dark magic. The force behind it was dark enough to suppress its emotions and thoughts. I dare say this but corruption maybe the wrong choice of word, maybe possession is the one to reference here. All I can say is that the darkness inside of it was acting like a parasite and the beast was just a host body.” The creature turned his head with his eyes still closed and directed it toward the CMC, “You have more of those creatures watching you but they possess light like you. I can only guess but I think they might have been touched by her because their light is pure like yours. They just seem like they need to be guided. I must go. If you need me again just call.” With that the creature faded into the air.

“You may come over here now. I know you have many questions for me and I have a few for you.” The figure said as they stood and approached the group. They put down the filly and Apple Bloom was the first to notice who it was,

“Twist! What did ya do to her?” She charged at the figure but came to an abrupt stop when she saw a twenty six foot wing span shoot out from the figure. “What kind of pony are ya. Only the princesses have a wingspan that big! If you hurt Twist so help me I will hurt ya.”

Dinky standing there staring at the figure remembered something that her dad told her after he and her mom got back from one of their adventures, “If the wingspan is greater than eighteen feet, you probably are dealing with a dragon. If they walk on all fours and do not talk but attack you need to run, they are what is known as feral. If they stand on their hind legs upright and look like a tree, you may be safe, if they charge at you they are known as primal. If you ask them the following question and they answer you will be safe because they are civil. If the sun gives birth to the fire we wield, what gives birth to the wind we travel on?”

Dinky walked in front of her group and looked at the figure before asking, “If the sun gives birth to the fire we wield, what gives birth to the wind we travel on?” Her friends looked at her as if to ask “where did the question come from,” and the noticed the figure chuckle and respond.

“The sun gives us fire for it is what allows fire to exist, the wind we travel upon is made up of the hopes and dreams of the innocent souls the live upon the world. It is the first job of the ones who bear the light to protect the innocent, for as long as they exist so will the breeze that caries not only us dragons but the spirit of magic herself.” Upon finishing the figure removed their pitch black cloak to reveal a dragon with sunset orange covering nearly every scale of his body and his belly was emerald green along with his spines, claws, and the inside webbed areas of his wings. As the colts and fillies eyes traveled over him they all came to one agreement, he appeared to be carved from a very adamant substance like marble or diamonds.

“Why do you look that way?” Dinky finally asked as all four of the fillies were trying to hide their blushes. Her eyes betrayed her as she came upon his body again. Her golden irises noticed every scale as the moved on their own accord downward from his meaty chest to bricks making up his core. As they go lower she takes notice of the oak trees coming out of his waist and ending on the ground. She leans to her left as the takes notice of an anaconda trailing behind him ending in a razor sharp spade. Her eyes look up and make their way to his arms as they appear to be thick enough to break one of the apple trees in the orchard just by hugging it. Her gaze mover over to his wings as she took notice that his wings were no toothpicks. They were just as meaty as the rest of him. Her eyes finally found his face, and it was breath-taking. His jaw-bone easily seen through his scales, his cheeks shown a genuine smile and his head bear no horns but what took her breath away was his eyes. They shone like freshly fallen snow. “Where are your horns and what happened to your eyes?

Button walked right up in front of him and began waving in his face and he responded, “I can see you doing that even though I am blind. My horns were never there because my breed doesn’t have them and I look like this because I have trained my whole life. Now how did you know that saying young one?” His attention turned in the direction of Dinky.

“My dad told me a while ago about dragons if I may be so humble, what is your name and how do you see? Dinky asked him trying to maintain her composure as the other girls had fallen and were hugging their boyfriends.

“My name is Titanius Silverscale and I see by… all of you get behind me now. Something approaches and it is huge.” All of the CMC hide behind him as he flares out his wings and they act like a wall.

“Where are the little ones I saw? If you hurt them I will kill you without hesitation!” A voice stated and every member knew the owner.

“SPIKE!” they all said and ran out from behind him. After they all were in view Dinky turned to Titanius and explained.

“This is Spike. He is a dragon as well but you probably know that. He lives with a mare in town. He is usually friendly but some events have happened recently that have made him jumpy.” Turning to Spike, “This is Titanius-“

“Just Titan would be fine.” Titanius interjected.

“Okay. This is Titan Sliverscale and he saved us and Twist from a manticore. He is a good dragon and was not hurting us, we were just talking.” Dinky explained.

Spikes eyes widened at the use of his mother’s last name but did not interrupt. After she finished he turned to the CMC and asked, “Did you all happen to see Discord by any chance? Twilight has been looking for him.”

“Why?” was the response he got from all of them at once.

“Well let me explain so you will understand.”

-------------------------------------------------------------------
At Twilights Castle (past)

“SPIKE WHERE ARE YOU I NEED HELP WITH CLEANING THE CASTLE LIBRARY!” Echoed throughout the castle as spike lumbered over to his least favorite room. Twilight still yelling his name. After she stopped yelling his name he stopped moving as she screamed loud enough for Spike to burp up a scroll sent by Celestia that read WHAT THE BUCK IS SHE SCREAMING ABOUT?! He just tossed it aside and pushed open the door to see a book floating in front of Twilight as she was standing there staring at it. He rushed over and noticed a pencil sketch of what looked like Discords face talking, but no sound was coming out. Twilight turned to

Spike and whispered, “Discords soul is trapped in this book and he has no idea of how to get out. We need to find his body now.”

Spike looked at her like she was insane and asked bluntly, “why?”

“Because Spike, if Discord is stuck and it wasn’t the elements that trapped him there we are in for trouble.” As she finished talking Fluttershy walked in and announced,

“Discord is in town walking about. Twi why do you look like that?”

Twilight started twitching and mumbling to herself. Finally she looked at Spike and proclaimed, “We must find him and catch him but he could be anywhere.”

As the three of them pondered where to start. They noticed a desk drawer opening and a pink earth pony sprouting from it and asking, “Ok Twi I need to get back to the school. Discord said you needed my help with something so what is it?”

Spike took off through the roof and flew as fast as he could toward the school. On his way he saw a dragon.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Back in the present

“I’m sorry for the misunderstanding. I acted on impulse.” Spike said apologetically.

“I understand, but may I ask you a question?”

“Sure. I owe you that much” Spike replied

“What color is your flame and if you don’t mind what is the main color of your scales?”

“Emerald and purple why?” Spike answered sounding a little scared.

“The shadows shall never prevail, as long as they fight he who wields the green flame and wears the violet vail.” Titan whispered only loud enough for Spike to hear.

“What does that mean?” Spike asked.

“It means dear one that you are my lost brother. Your name is Samuel Silverscale. You went missing before you were hatched and now I have found you. I can now tell you how to use the family magic. But first we must find the last living member of the Sliver clan.” Titan explained as Spike noticed the mane six arriving he asked.

“Why is he so important? He is just a child?”

“The reason is simple. He is the only member of the Silver clan left. He controls magic even he does not know exists. He has can easily control the very essence’s of light. But it is the blood-line’s inner magic and secrets are the reason which he is in so much danger. All I know is this he is a dragon lord.

“SPIKE WHAT ARE YOU DOING? WHO IS THIS GUY?” All found the siren like scream to belong to the purple pony princess herself as she prepared to attack the creature now in the middle of a hug. “RELEASE HIM FORM YOUR CAPTURE NOW!” All present staring at the mighty princess as she was demanding a dragon that could easily kill her to release his ‘victim’ from a warm hug. “DID YOU NOT HEAR ME? I SAID LET HIM G-“

“Twilight please he was just talk ‘in to us. He saved Twist from a manticore.” Apple Bloom spoke trying her best to calm the enraged alicorn. As the CMC took defensive positions around the two dragons Titan saw he should speak up but the looks he was receiving from the alicorn told him otherwise. As all present where trying to come up with explanations or attack plans a voice echoed in a certain filly's ears.

“Sooth the raging seas and return the stream to a calm state.” As she heard the voice a mic appeared connected to a headset on her. No one took notice however as all attention was on Titan or Twilight. She closed her eyes and started to sing, as her voice rippled outward it could be heard by everyone nearby.

♪“Let the darkness be gone and see it never return,
For is was always meant to be another’s concern.”♫

As she sang a warm aura enveloped everypony hearing it. They felt a wave of calmness take hold and every pair of eyes met a young alabaster filly with a two toned mane and tail. The most noticeable difference was her mane and tail had a fluid movement to them almost like waves of water, like they were flowing in a current.

♪“Accept the simple needs and learn that every soul has a say,
With understanding you will see that is the waaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyy.”♫

The onlookers finally took notice of the headset. Rarity herd Twilight ask her, “When did you sister get a headset? And I thought she gave up on getting a singing cutie-mark? And what is going on with her mane?” All Rarity could do was sit there. Watching her little sister as she began to feel pride and happiness for her.

♪“Happiness is a gift like a pearl to a mare,
A gift a stallion sends to show he does care.
Everything shared to present a little light,
Helps to weaken the monsters that serve the night.♫

As the main six watch in awe and the CMC start to cry at the feeling of warmth one little colt closes his eyes happy to hear the angelic voice he fell in love with once more.

♪“Brightening the day is a spell we all can cast,
What we do makes sure it always lasts.
For we all are emissaries of the light,
And we can force the darkness to depart.”♫

As the song drew to a close everypony present was the calmest they had been all day. They felt like they just woke up from a long needed rest and they were in hurry to do anything.

♪“We’ll just have a little trouble and a small fight,
And finally awaken the light in every heart.”♫

After the final word the headset disappeared and her mane and tail returned to normal. She opened her eyes just in time to feel her companion hugging her tightly crying. Her attention was then directed toward Twilight. As Twilight walked forward towards her she held a look of confusion. Calmly the alicorn asked, “What drove you to sing? You told everyone that you would never sing again. After your parents passing and you came to live with Rarity you announced you would never sing again. Why did you still sing after you said you never would?” As Sweetie thought she came upon a realization and reciting it out loud.

“Music brings out the light. It echoes through the darkness and finds light guiding it home.”

As they all contemplated her response Spike asked Titan, “Would you like to see Quick Sliver? He is at the hospital, just a short seven minute walk.”

“I’ll tell you of my journey along the way and you all can ask me questions. I will answer them if I want to.” Was his response.

As Sweetie was released and they all started walking the first to speak before Twilight was Dinky. As she stated clearly, “You never answered my question about your eyes.” Titan just laughed and used his huge tail to lift Dinky up off of the ground and put her on his snout. Placing her down, she came eye to eye with him. As she stared into his pure white irises she felt herself slip into a state of comfort. She felt like eternity was passing by as her gaze pierced his. Only to be brought back as he answered.

“I have been blinded since birth. I have never seen a sunrise or sunset. Although my eyes fail to work does not mean I cannot see colors. I see by auras. To make it easier for you young ones, I see the essence that you carry. Here is an example her-” pointing a claw at Rainbow Dash “- she appears to me as a fusion of red, orange, and yellow-green. I have come to understand through my training that means this about her: red usually stands for confidence and power, while yellow stands for a compassionate friend and great personality, the hint of green I see stands for a competitive nature, and orange stands for mischief.” As he let that sink in he turned his claw towards Applejack and, “You are troubled and I can see the worry you carry in your aura.”

AJ now redder than a ripe apple sadly announced, “Me ‘n Granny are going to Appleloosa and Apple Bloom, ya staying with Rarity. Granny been tell’n me that she needs to go and only ah should go with her. Ah am so sorry but we will be back in a few days.”

AB now confused asked, “Sis why are ya all red?” She had completely understood what she said and the reasons, but why was she red?

“Ah am slightly embarrassed by the sudden point’n at me by the giant drake that’s all.”

AB happy, “ok ah understand. Ah guess.”

Twilight now with her chance to ask her questions pulled out a note pad and began. After the worst five and a half minutes in equine history they could see the hospital. Out of nowhere Trixie magically teleported in front of them and spoke in a sinister voice, “My master wishes you all dead. I will grant him that wish.” With that her horn glowed and she spoke, “Death” A grim reaper figure appeared and flew towards them and Titan reacted.

Holding up his claws he spoke, “Protect” and a dome appeared around them the reaper hit the dome and disappeared. After his spell he grabbed Dinky and put her down. Standing in front of everyone he flared out his wings and used them like a shield. Trixie reacted by shouting.

“Your death will be by my hooves, Blizzaga.” As she finished pillars of ice with spear like tips shot towards Titan as he thought to himself.

This is gonna hurt!

As they hit his wings they shattered upon impact and he felt near ice age level cold flood his body. Pushing through the pain he focused his mind and saw his spell he yelled, “Mute” And a strange light gathered around Trixie’s throat. Smiling Trixie spoke aloud with a grin that could be considered be considered the grin of a serial-killer.

“My you have a sad excuse for a spell list don’t you? Here let me teach you a new one METEOR!” A dozen glowing oval shaped objects appeared from nowhere and moved toward him. His mind gave him two options: one deflect the spell and risk killing the host casting the spell, or two face the attack head on. Unfortunately he realized he was too late for option one. As he was sent flying back and slammed into a tree, his pain gave way to worry as the ponyfolk he was protecting were now defenseless.

“Bakudo # four, Hainawa!” Every set of eyes turned to a griffon standing there. His rustic orange coat complementing his sapphire blue feathers. As he stood upright facing them. His eyes opened to reveal a rare shade of scarlet. He faced Trixie and a light shout out of his claws that were held together. She reacted but the light rope like thing was slightly faster. Within moments she was entangled in it shouting.

“WHAT MAGIC IS THIS? I MUST KILL THEM! HE WISHES IT!”

The griffon landed next to Titan and put out a claw facing him, “Old lizard you ran off without me. Well you look like you’re in pain. I will help but you owe me one, Curaga.” Titan glowed for a bit then got up.

“Thank you.” (Crash) “I think she got out. Her spells are powerful”

“Distract her I need to recite the spell”

“I will give you the time I can provide”

“Ok I will focus as fast as possible.” And the griffon closed his eyes and Titan ran toward a now free Trixie yelling.

“Over here you dum mare. Fira.” And a small explosion of fire bursted near Trixie turning her attention from the, frozen in fear, main six and CMC to Titan just as the griffon chanted

“Carriage of thunder and gape of the spinning wheel, with this light divide into six. Bakudo #61 Rikujōkōrō.”

Six beams of light appeared around Trixie and she froze. Unable to say or do anything she watched as the griffon put up a talon pad and pointed it at her. “Star Alignment.” A weird symbol appeared on his talon pad and a black seal on Trixie’s chest over her heart. “Constellation cleansing.” A stream of stars shot out of his talon and made a symbol on the seal. The black seal shattered and Trixie collapsed. As the main six and the CMC gathered to check on Trixie the griffon walked over to Titan and said, “Hey never run off again. We are finding my friend and you taking off is not helpful.

“WHO ARE YOU?!” Everyone but Titan yelled.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Derpy was sitting next to an unconscious little clot. As she sat there wondering when he will wake up he shot up right and smiled while saying, “Gabrin Kafeel Greywing, Gabe.” Tears falling down his face he cried, “Gabe made it. HE MADE IT!”

Derpy getting up from her chair she hopped onto the bed and held him while she asked, “Who is he Quick?” He turned his head to see her face and was sobbing while trying to answer her.

“After s-Spike l-left he was t-t-the only o-o-one who helped me. After I was p-put in the hospital he c-c-came every day. He h-helped me t-t-to see that e-even though s-s-Spike was g-g-gone that t-t-there was still p-p-people who wanted me t-t-to live.” His attitude improving and the sobbing stopping, “He showed me what it means to be cherished. He taught me what it means to have friends. His bond with me is as strong as my bond with Spike.” His eyes widened and his hooves grabbed at the left side of his chest and he collapsed once more onto the bed.

Derpy placing her hooves gently on his barrel and her heart shattering when she realized, only his right lung was working. “DOCTOR! DOCTOR! I NEED A DOCTOR! PLEASE HELP I NEED A DOCTOR NOW! HELP! SOMEPONY, ANYPONY HELP1”

“My name is Gabrin Kafeel Greywing but because it is difficult to pronounce I tell people to call me Gabe. I have been traveling with this old lizard looking for a close friend. May I now be able to ask of thee thou names?” Gabe asked.

“My name is Twilight Sparkle and these are my friends: Applejack, her sister Apple Bloom, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, and her sister Sweetie Bell-Sir why is your chest bleeding?”

Gabe looked down and whispered to himself hope-ing no one would hear him, “Lumen where are you and are you safe?” Looking up at the group he spoke loudly, “it happens when someone I care about is in pain. My friend I am looking for seems to be in pain could you tell me where to find him?”

“Who is he?” the main six asked in unison. But before he got to answer all present heard the crash of breaking followed by Dinky screaming
“MOMMY!”

Twilight started thinking of what to do before AJ spoke up stating, “Why does it look like Derpy’s falling while trying to kill nurse Redheart who has got Quick in a death grip? And above all else why does it look like Quick is bleeding and where did Derpy get a spear?”

Suddenly a red flash and a white blur ran past them. Rainbow yelling, “Who were they? And where did Pinkie go?”

“Forget that we need to help Derpy, nurse Redheart, and Quick Sliver.” Twilight announced. In one motion the massive group took off toward the hospital.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Back at the hospital

“Ok the nurse is here to help. We have a collapsed lung. I’ll give him some medicine to alleviate the pain and take him to the O.R. immediately. You will need to leave the room. Mrs. Derpy,” Nurse Redheart spoke calmly.

“You aren’t really nurse Redheart are you?” Derpy asked her while preparing herself for a fight.

“What do you mea- I see you can’t be fooled as easily as most can. Are you going to try to fight me or will you surrender quietly? I have no need to kill you but I will if you get in my way.” Redheart answered.

“My sister left him in my care and I will defend him. I hope you know how to defend as well as you can trick people. I won’t let you hurt him.” Throwing out her hoof towards Redheart she stood on her hind legs and said the phrase she hadn’t used in over twelve years, “Appear before me now, Sara!” a spear materialized and she grabbed it with her hoof. Standing on her hind legs the stood aiming the spear toward Redheart and spoke, “Take your position.”

“Gladly,” In a flash she was holding the unconscious Quick Sliver and without thinking Derpy charged pushing them out of the glass and falling toward the ground.

---------------------------------------------

Back to the present in front of the hospital

“Let him go! I will not hesitate to kill you” Derpy screamed

“No and you can’t kill me. But you and him can die together, however you can still live if you just let go” Redheart answered

“Never. He is my connection to my sister. I won’t let you take him from me.”

“Say goodbye to your loved ones now. The ground is too close to survive impact anyway.”

As Derpy and Quick came within a foot of the ground time stopped and Derpy corrected herself so she was standing on her hind legs holding Quick in the forelegs. Time started and Redheart appeared in awe and sneered while stating, “You are no ordinary mare are you Derpy or should I call you Ditzy?”

Placing Quick on the ground as gently as possible and turning to face Redheart, “Yes that is my name. You will not have enough time to memorize it though. You shall fall here and now.”

“What makes you so sure a mare like yourself can beat me? I am eternal.”

“I am an emissary of the light. I bring forth hope to those how are trouble by despair. I wield powers that few are given. I see past and present. Age means nothing to me for it obeys what I tell it. You try your best to survive.”

----------------------------------------------------------------------

The massive group of ponies finally made it to the hospital to see Mac and Vinyl tending to a wounded Quick Sliver and Derpy fighting Redheart. Although no creature present was able to find where Pinkie was at. Dinky was focused on her mother as she was fighting. No one could find their voice while staring at the mares fighting.

Derpy was using her spear and body as one. Every strike had a defensive recoil and she would use her neck to gather the needed momentum. After deflecting Redheart’s attack she would spin the spear around her neck to gather momentum for her next strike. Most of her movements were too fast to be seen by the regular eye. The sound of metal clashing with metal rung throughout the air. The fight was too fuzzy to tell who was who. In a flare of movement Redheart was thrown to the ground and a crater formed around her upon impact to the ground. Landing gently upon the ground Derpy stood upon her hind legs and voiced her victory by calling to the heap known as Redheart, “Leave and never return here.” Turning to walk away Redheart grabbed up her weapon and attacked Derpy only to be stopped by a giant cucumber.

“Cucumber Colum.”

“Golden Harvest what are you doing?”

“Ditzy behind you. Lyra help her, you too Bon-Bon”

“Ok” they said in unison.

♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦

Lyra standing on her hind legs in a space filled with light. Spinning on one back hoof she starts to glow the glow disappears in sections to reveal armor. One foreleg is covered in a chain mesh covered in white feathers. The other foreleg is covered the same way. Her hind legs are revealing to be covered in armor connecting to boots covering her hooves. Her torso is revealed to be wearing a chain mesh shirt but is then covered in a marble plating acting as a breastplate. Five thin forms push out from her fore hooves. She back flips and lands pulling a gun out from her chest. Pointing it in front of her. She ends the transformation by saying, “Emissary, Guardian Angel!”

Bon-Bon standing on her hind legs in an area resembling the ocean depths. Spinning on one hind leg she glowed a mysterious blue. As the blue disappeared slowly it revealed armor that shown as brightly as a pearl. A robe covering her body but underneath mythril mesh. Like Lyra she had five forms push out of her fore hooves. A Staff made of coral and shells appeared in one hoof. She spin in around while turning to face forward and stood holding it in a way similar to a sorcerer would have. Slamming the staff’s bottom point to the caused the scenery behind her to change to a hurricane. She ended her transformation by saying, “Emissary, Gentle Tides!”

♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦

Redheart looked at the transformed two and smirked saying, “I guess playtime is over.”

Lyra lifts a hind-leg and shouts, “Heavens Ally,” while slamming it down. The scenery changes to a white space with marble structures.

“What is this place?” Sweetie asked nopony in particular. Although Gabe noticed and answered.

“Think of it like a pocket dimension. Any spells used here will not affect Ponyville or the planet. Sweetie makes the “oh” face before nodding. Gabe returns his attention to Quick looking worried.

“Well, well I did not expect to see emissary’s living here. I guess the safest thing to do is… Eternal blast!” A black wave appeared and hit all present. The mane six and CMC felt nothing but Mac, Vinyl, Golden harvest, Derpy, Lyra, and Bon-Bon all laying there in agony. “That takes care of those pesky powers and keeps you all from moving. Now to kill him an-“

“Let’s get this party started!”

Twilight in fear, “Pinkie run get Celestia only she can help us!”

“Twilight please be quiet I have a performance in 15 min and I want to be there.”

Vinyl, “Tavi? I thought you were in Manehatten?”

"I got her. A party is more fun with more guests well shall we get this party started or what?"

Octavia falling upright, downward hind-legs first poised as if ready to attack. Embers gather around her hind-legs and burst to reveal pants usually worn on female warriors. Smoke constricts around her body and it dissolves to reveal female gladiator armor. Two fire balls fly at her and she punches them as they engulf her fore hooves and reveal gauntlets. Her hair gets covered in soot and hardens before bursting to reveal a helmet. She lands on the ground and the back ground changes to a volcano. “Emissary, Passionate Fighter.”

Pinkie standing in a grey space. A golden colored globe shoots out of her and heads to her right and an onyx colored globe shoots to her left. She herself jumps up into a grey cloth that forms around her as a storm cloud grey hooded cloak. Reaching her right foreleg up she grabs hold of a similar colored staff and twirls it around. A blade forms during the spinning. Stopping the spinning reveals the blade to be made of starlight. The staff has transformed into a scythe. She lands sits and points the scythe toward her left.

The onyx orb is cloaked in a pink cloth. The form shifts to a strait haired Pinkie that has a darker colored coat. It jumps up into a pitch black cloth the cloth takes the form of a hooded cloak. It opens its eyes to show they are huge blue irises with pin sized pupils. It reaches its right foreleg up and grabs an onyx crystal staff. Twirling it around a blade forms during the spinning. Stopping the spinning reveals the blade to be made of onyx black diamond. The staff has transformed into a scythe. It lands and walks over to Pinkie, sitting on her left. Pinkie points her scythes blade to the right.

The golden orb is covered in a white cloth. The forms turns into a white version of Pinkie with some golden light seeping through the cloth making up a poofy mane and tail. It opens its eyes to show them as blue irises with child-like pupils. It slams its fore hooves together and it sprouts wings. It jumps up into a sunset pink cloth and the cloth takes the form of a hooded cloak. Reaching up its right foreleg up and grabs hold of a cloud white staff. Twirling it around a blade forms during the spinning. Stopping the spinning reveals the blade to be made of ivory. The staff has transformed into a scythe. It lands and walks over to Pinkie sitting on her right.

The three stand and take a battle pose. The back ground turns into a giant stone door engraved with other worldly symbols. “Emissary, Triad Reaper.”
♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦

All but Octavia and Quick turned to see three Pinkies in different cloaks standing in a line. The real Pinkie spoke up, “Three is a party, but four is a bash! Dine,” the one in the sunset pink cloak looked toward her, “Pinkamena,” the one in the onyx black cloak looked to her, “lets party!”

“Well, well I guess I have no choice but to fight since Eternal blast can only be cast once.” Discords body appeared and was holding twin swords. Redheart stood up on her hind legs and produced twin swords of her own.

Insert your own favorite fighting music now.

Redheart jumped toward Octavia while Discord ran toward the Pinkies. Octavia used her gauntlets to punch Redheart in the nose and sent her flying away. Octavia then jumped after her leaving Pinkie to deal with Discord.

Discord Threw his swords at the Pinkies and summoned a 12ft long bladed whip. Thrusting the whip forward. Pinkie twirled her scythe to repel the swords. Diane used her scythe to intercept and repel the whip. Pinkamena spun her cloak over her body then disappeared. Discord jumped up and pulled back his whip preparing to strike when Diane jumped above him causing him to look up.

“Hiya,” she put both hooves in front of her and shouted, “Thunder!” Bolts of lightning flew out of her hooves and struck him sending him down. Crashing into a crater he got up and shouted.

“Dam you! Wait where is the third one?”

“Behind you asshole! Reaper Cage!”

Discords eyes shot open at the sound of the voice and of where it was coming from. Before he could react a cage of scythes appeared around him.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Octavia lands near the fallen Redheart sighing she says, “I was hoping for a challenge to compensate my loss of practice time unfortunately your skills are average at be-” Redheart kicks Octavia in the stomach sending her into the sky.

“Hope you can see the stratosphere wench!” Redheart screamed laughing.

“Lyra, Ditzy… Ability sync with me… NOW!”

“Yes.”

“Will do”

Octavia’s left eye turned golden with violet numbers one through twelve in a clock like circle. Her gauntlets disappearing she turned in midair so she was facing Redheart and clapped her hooves summoning a semi-circle of rifles around her body. They faced the front pointed at Redheart and fired.

The bullet missed Redheart by millimeters. She responded by flinging her swords and produced more and flung them instantly. Tavi expecting this flung open her left eye and clock hands appeared and spun around the clock until they met at the twelve. Time seemed to freeze except Tavi, she kept moving but to her everything was a shade of blue.

Expertly landing on the ground she let the hands move. Time continued and Redheart just got mad and went on the offensive again. Tavi jumping to doge each one summoned a rifle, spun it to repel several swords, and fired it once then flung it aside.
-------------------------------------------------

Discord was stuck in the cage glared at the three Pinkies. “What do you plan to do now? Kill me? I am only a part of the real threat. I cannot die. You will only destroy this body. It is useless.”

“Triad Art, Judgment and Conviction.” The three said in unison.

Discords eyes widened and he began screaming, “No! Please NO! NO! NO, NO, NO!”
----------------------------------------------

Tavi was at a stalemate. Redheart laughed, “This is your best? You are pathetic! Much like the Silvermane clan I slaughtered.”

Tavi’s eyes widened at the mention of the name “Silvermane” and her mind showed her an image of a Pegasus stallion with a sunset orange coat and ivory mane and tail with amber eyes. Angry she cried, “You killed Flare Wing?”

“Yes I did. What is it to you?”

Closing her eyes Tavi calmly spoke, “I swore I would never use this ever but I now break that vow,” Her eyes snap open wide and her irises have turned amber, “Silver Spell…”

“You’re a Slivermane. How?”

“Amber Gaze”

“NO!”

“Your death is now revealed! Now you DIE!”

“I am eternal the force controlling this body is only a part of me. You cannot harm me.”

“All stories have an end, now I WRITE YOURS! SILVER CURSE”

“NO! NO! NO!”

“DESTINY PRISON!”

“NO!”

End of all fighting scene. Stop any fighting music please.

Discord was sitting in the library open. Looking at the ceiling when suddenly a flash and he was back in his own body. He looked around and noticed the three Pinkies and asked. “Pinkie who are your sisters?”

But before he got his answer Diane and Pinkamena were absorbed back into pinkie and her scythe and cloak disappeared and she collapsed. Lyra ran up to her and checked, “she is fine just exhausted.”

“HE IS NOT BREATHING!” Everyone turned to see Bon-Bon freaking out. Gabe rushed over to Quick’s bags and open a secret pocket. Pulling out several vials, Twilight made note to ask about that later, and ran over to Quick. Moving Bon-Bon aside he opened Quick’s mouth and began talking, “let’s see potions class the combination? Oh yea. Phoenix blood, Dragon tears, but what was the last one? ...…… Lava!”

“LAVA?!”

After adding the correct vials a light erupted from Quick Sliver’s chest and it immediately disappeared. “Fix Quick’s rib and left lung? Check. Sliver blessing, Breath of Life.” After taking a deep breath Gabe kissed Quick and pushed the air into him before pulling back. “… Come on Lumen. Come on… Oh?”

“Faux you came back!”
