> The Hunt for Gems > by Magix with Lex > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Into the Portal > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Bro I'm back" said a voice as a door opened. "Welcome back Tom" said a voice. "Well did you hear about what happened at Canterlot High?" Tom said as he jumped on a table and sat on it. "No why do you ask?" The Voice asked. "Because I heard stuff" Tom said as he popped a bottle of root beer. "What kind of stuff" Tom? The Voice said. "Magic stuff, Jack you know how your a miner?" Tom asked between drinking. "Yeah so?" Jack said as he sharpened his pick axe. "So I hear there is a Princess Pony that comes to my school and I have seen her too, anyway she comes and goes as she pleases but I need to find out where" Tom said as he finished drinking his root beer. "And your telling me because?" Jack asked as he sat down. "So we can go there and get Gems and stuff" Tom said as he throw his bottle in the trash. "What do you mean?" Jack asked as he looked at Tom. "Well I saw her dog and I hear he is a dragon not a dog when he is in the dragon world" Tom answered. "And this means?" Jack asked. It means you don't have to worry about working as a miner if we go to the pony world and get those gems we would be rich. Plus don't you know dragons guard treasure?" Tom said. "And before you say anything I have planned everything" Tom said as he grinned. "Alright, an what's step 1?" Jack asked getting up and walking to Tom. "Awesome I see your in, alright first we need to get to Sunset Shimmer's book I have seen her write stuff in it and other stuff is magically written back to her" Tom said as headed out the door Jack following beside. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ "See Jack right there" Tom said as he and Jack hid behind a tree plant. "So she's just a girl" Jack said as he pointed out. "Not just a girl that's Sunset Shimmer and I'm pretty sure she has her magic book with her" Tom said. "Alright now I need you to go outside and see if the pony princess girl comes" Tom said. "If you say so" Jack said as he started to head for door. ("I got to get closer to that book") Tom thought to himself. As Tom watched Sunset Shimmer he saw her put the book in her bag. "So that's where she keeps it" Tom said to himself. Tom left from the plant and crawled on the floor got near Sunset Shimmer's bag and swapped the book then put it up he's shirt. "Hey what are you doing?" Sunset Shimmer said as she stopped from talking to Applejack and turned her head. "Oh nothing carry on with your talking and stuff" Tom said as he backed away. Tom turned and ran down the hall to a room. Sunset Shimmer and Applejack said "Boys". ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ "Now all I have to do is write something strange or bad" Tom thought to himself. Tom looked at some of Sunset Shimmer's and Twilight's previous talks. "Hmm so I think I'll start like Sunset Shimmer does" Tom said. "Dear Twilight..." Tom started to write. ~ ~ ~ ~ 3 Minutes Later ~ ~ ~ ~ "I don't really know why Tom would believe this he is not this gullible" Jack thought to himself as he leaned on the wall of the outside of Canterlot High. As Jack thought to himself he looked up and a bright light came out of nowhere from the statue and out came Twilight and Spike. Jack's Mouth fell open and he tripped and then fell on his back. Soon after Twilight and Spike went into the school Tom came out. "Alright now we have to look for where she came from hopefully you saw" Tom said. "Please tell me a girl and a dog just didn't come out of that statue" Jack said as he started getting up. "The statue why didn't I think of that" Tom said as he went over to the portal. Jack got up and went next to Tom. "So what now?" Jack asked. "We go in. Do you got the weapons?" Tom asked. "Yeah I got them" Jack said. "Then lets go Jack" Tom said as he was about to step in. "Wait Tom" Jack said stopping Tom. "What is it Jack?" Tom asked. "What if we turn to ponies?" Jack asked. "We won't and I know don't you read stories" Tom said. "No I don't but I will follow you" Jack said. "You wouldn't your 46 year old men" Tom joked. "And your a 19 year old that believes fairy tails" Jack said. "Well we best get going alright in 1 2 3"! Tom said. As Tom said 3 they both leaped into the portal now heading Ponyvile. > Welcome to Ponyvile > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tom and Jack fell out of the portal rolling, and having there bags fall off and then stopping on the floor. "Ow that hurt" Jack said as he rubbed his head. "You can say that again" Tom said as he started to get up. "Hmm I don't feel any different" Jack said as he looked at his hands. "See I told you we won't turn to ponies" Tom said as he got up. "I see" Jack said as he got up as well. "This was easy so hopefully the rest will be" Tom said. "It mostly likely won't" Jack said. "You can't really say tha- AH!" Tom said as he tripped over a book and hit into a bookshelf. "Sure it will" Jack said between giggles. "Ow" Tom said. "I'll get you out buddy" Jack said as he started to get the books off of Tom. After Jack got Tom out from the books Jack looked at the book Tom tripped on. "Hmm what's this?" Jack asked himself out loud. "What's what?" Tom asked as he looked over Jack's shoulder. "This is a book of there pony history" Jack said as he sat down. "Say what?" Tom said as he sat down next to him. Jack opened the book and starting flipping threw it. "Nightmare Moon,Princess Celestia,Starswarl so many names and so many monsters" Jack said. "You can say that again" Tom said as he took the book from Jack. "Discord,Sombra,Queen Chrysails, wow this is awesome I could read this for hours" Tom said as he flipped threw pages. "Well we can't. We got work to do remember?" Jack said as he got up. "Your right lets get going" Tom said as he put the book on the bookshelf. "Now I know we won't be as weird if we go in a town" Jack said as he got his stuff and picked up his bag. "Hopefully they don't try to fight us" Tom said as he did the same. "Yeah but we should go" Jack said. "Alright come on" Tom said. As they both started to the door they both heard a noise behind them. They both looked and there was a Pony and a little green Dragon. They both ran out of the place they were in and headed to somewhere random in Ponyvile. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ "I hope they didn't see us" Jack said between breathes. "Yeah me too" Tom said between breathes. Tom looked around to see tons of ponies looking at them some worried,some scared, some running and screaming. "Hello?" Tom said trying not to scare them. "I wonder if they can to humans" Jack said. "Yeah I wonder that too" Tom said. "WELCOME TO PONYVILE!" A pink pony said scaring Tom and Jack. "WOAH!" Jack shouted as he almost fell back. -A Musical number later- "So anyway I'm Pinkie Pie" Pinkie Pie said giggling. "I'm Tom and this is Jack" Tom said. "Nice to meet you" Jack said. "So where are we anyway?" Tom asked. Your in Ponyvile silly Pinkie Pie said. "But I haven't seen a creature like you before what are you?" Pinkie Pie said. "We are Humans" Jack said. "Never heard of them" Pinkie Pie said as she started to bounce away. "Wait since we are new here can you show us around?" Tom asked. "Sure follow me I'll show you both everything"! Pinkie Pie said bouncing off. "We'll start looking for the gems and stuff later" Tom whispered. "Got it" Jack whispered back. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ "Come on or we will be late" Pinkie Pie said as she bounced towards Sugar Cube Corner. "Yeah yeah" Tom said following behind. "We are here!" Pinkie Pie said as she opened the door. "Where is here?" Jack asked. "Sugar Cube Corner" Pinkie Pie said as they all walked in. "Time to have your welcome to Ponyvile party!" Pinkie Pie shouted as the lights turned on. "Welcome to Ponyvile!" Many ponies shouted. "Wow what a welcome" Jack said. "Wow so tall and straight" a Filly said looking up at Jack. Jack rubbed the filly's head then sat down near the counter. "Well its nice to meet somepony new" a orange Pony with a hat said. "You sound like somebody I know" Tom said. "What do y'all mean?" the orange Pony asked. "You sound like someone I know named Applejack" Tom said. "But my name is Ap-" the orange Pony was cut off by somepony. "AJ, Twi needs you" a rainbow Pony said as matted the orange Pony on the head. "I'll be right back" the orange Pony said as she followed the rainbow Pony . Tom came and sat next to Jack. "Did you start thinking about how we are going to beat a Dragon?" Jack asked. "Easy we stab, shoot and stuff, we will kill it sooner or later" Tom answered. "I wish there was in easy way" Jack said. "Maybe there is a place where of gems around here" Tom said. "Well there is" Pinkie Pie said as she stopped in front of them. "Cupcakes?" Pinkie Pie asked as she put her head down which she had a tray of cupcakes on it. "Sure" Tom and Jack said as they took a few. "So you say something about a easier way to get Gems" Tom said. "There is if you want to go to the Diamond Dog's Cave" Pinkie Pie said. "Diamond Dogs?" Jack asked. Yes Diamond Dogs I can show you the way tomorrow Pinkie Pie answered. "But we need to go tonight" Tom said. "Well alright I'll let Mrs.Cake take over the party" Pinkie Pie said as she jumped over to Mrs.Cake. "Well looks like we got our wish"Tom said after eating a cupcake. "True" Jack said after eating his cupcakes. "Alright lets long we should be there in the morning" Pinkie Pie said. "Alright" Tom said. Tom and Jack followed Pinkie Pie out of Sugar Cube Corner,now on the way to the Diamond Dog Cave. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ "We're here" Pinkie Pie said as she moved the leaves out of the way. "Finally" Tom said as he looked to the raising sun. "We should of took the short way Pinkie Pie not the long way" Jack said. "Yeah I know but I wanted to go on adventure with both of you" Pinkie Pie said between giggles. "Well at least we are here thanks Pinkie Pie" Tom said rubbing Pinkie's head. "Well bye" Pinkie Pie said as she starting to bounce her way back Ponyvile. "Bye" Jack said. "Well we are here" Tom said as he started to grin. "So we get in and we get out lets move Tom" Jack said. "Got it" Tom said. Tom and Jack took there Pick Axes out and and then they both disappeared into the cave. > ATTACKED! > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "This is amazing Tom" Jack said as he hit the stone wall with his pick axe. "I told you Jack getting gems here are easy" Tom said as he knocked some of wall fell off. Gems starting to fall out of the hole. "GEMS!" Tom shouted with joy and his started to put some in his backpack. "Your right this is easier" Jack said as he hit the wall really hard. "More gems and diamonds!" Jack said as he started to put them in is backpack. "We are almost done with getting these gems and diamonds. I think we should get a little more then leave for home what do you think?" Tom asked as he got up from collecting gems. "Yeah I think that would be a good idea come on" Jack said leading both of down a path in the cave. ~~~~~~~~ "Well that's the rest of them lets get going we have need to get back" Jack said as he sat on a rock. "Alright lets go" Tom said as he put the last gem in his bag. "Where do you think your going?" a dark voice said from behind them. "Who's there show yourself!" Jack said jumping to his feet. "I'm Rover,this is Fido (The Big One) and that is Spot (The small one) and you too are our new gem finders" Rover said with a evil grin. "I don't think so" Jack said getting into a fighting position. "TOM RUN I'LL TAKE CARE OF THESE BUMS!" Jack shout as he charged to Rover. "I can't leave you Jack" Tom said as he charged with him. "And what are you going to do those pointy sticks?" Rover said as he laughed. "TAKE THIS!" Tom said as himself and Jack hit Rover in the stomach with there pick axes. "AH!" Rover screamed as he was flung back into the wall. "ROVER!" Fido shouted. "You can't do that to him and get away with it!" Fido said as he hit Jack with his hand. "Ow!" Jack said as he hit the wall behind him. "JACK!" Tom shouted as he ran over to him. "They are strong we don't stand a chance" Jack said as he got up. "I DON'T CARE KILL BOTH OF THEM!" Rover shouted pointing to them. Fido and Spot charged at Jack and Tom. "They're dead!" Tom said as he took out his rife from his bag. "TOM DON'T!" Jack shouted. Tom shot at Spot and hit him with a bullet. "AH YOU MONSTER!" Spot screamed in pain as he fell to the floor. "TOM RUN!" Jack shouted as Fido got closer. Fido got close to Tom and smashed him with his big hand. "Take that you thing" Fido said with a grin as he repeated smashing him. "Get off of him!" A voice said from the way they came in from. As a fireball flew and hit Fido. "AH GET IT OFF OF ME!" Fido screamed in pain as he rolled around on the floor. "Pinkie what are you doing here!?!?" Jack asked as Pinkie and a green Dragon ran out of the darkness. "Well Spike thought that we should come and help and he was right" Pinkie Pie said as she bounced over to Tom. "Who's Spike?" Jack asked. "This is Spike" Pinkie Pie said as she patted Spike on the head. "He is really hurt but he is alive" Spike said as he check Tom body. "That's good to hear" Jack said. Jack looked up and saw Rover running into another put of the cave. "Come on Spike lets go get him!" Jack said with a look and anger. "Alright" Spike said as himself and Jack run after Rover. Tom started to get up. "You alright Tom?" Pinkie Pie asked as he got up. "Kinda but I'm going to kill these DOGS!" Tom said as he started to run to Fido who was getting up. ~~~~~~~~ "Where did he go?" Jack asked as they entered where he went. "I'm not sure" Spike said. "TAKE THIS!" Rover shouted as he hit Jack off to a big hole in back of him. "AH!" Jack screamed as he started to fall. "Gotta" Spike said as he grabbed Jack's hand. "Pull me up" Jack said. "I can't your to heavy!" Spike said as he tried to pull Jack up. "Wait give me a sec" Jack said as he started to unbuckle his backpack. ("Good-Bye gems") Jack said to himself as he let his backpack fall into the darkness. "Your a lot lighter now" Spike said as he started to get Jack up from the hole. "Thanks Spike" Jack said as he started to get out. "SPIKE WATCH OUT!" Jack shouted as Rover ran in back of him. "DIE FOOL!" Rover shouted as he hit Spike off into the hole sending Spike and Jack into the hole of darkness. "NO!" Tom shouted as tears starting to fall down his face. "Oops I think I should be going" Rover said as he ran pass Tom. "This is not good" Pinkie Pie said as her ears went down. > Back to the human world (Short) > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tom and Pinkie Pie both walked shamefully back to Ponyvile. "Well you should be heading for the human world right?" Pinkie Pie asked with her head hanging low. "Yeah I can't believe this happened" Tom answered with a emotionless look. "This is going to be really hard to tell Twilight about" Pinkie Pie said as they stopped at Sugar Cube Corner. "Do you know where a portal to the human world could be?" Tom asked. "Yeah at Twilight's Castle" Pinkie Pie said as she pointed to a big crystal castle. "Well bye Pinkie I'll be back soon" Tom said as he started off to the castle. ~~~~~~~~ ("I'll be back just wait Jack I'll avenge you soon") Tom said to himself. Tom looked on the floor and saw the pony history book. "I'm sure no one will miss this" Tom said out loud. Tom looked up to the portal. "I'LL BE BACK!" Tom shouted as he ran into the portal. > Dear Celestia.... (Short) > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dear Celestia I have something that you might like to see but for my own safety I will not say what it is or where I am. I have found something but I don't know what it is, its kinda like Discord but doesn't seem to have any magic sense and it is knocked out anyway so it wouldn't be able to do anything but anyway I will send you messages every time I do a experiment.
