> Make a Chang: The will of nature > by golden dawn > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > ch 2 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- It has been five months now, and my life in ponyville is great. I have made a lot of friends in my time here. Fluttershy was the first to befriend me, and the foxes have grown and left, but the smallest one decided to stay with me it was so cute as it tries to stay with me, so I made her my pet named her Foxy. When I meet the first of Fluttershy old childhood friends Rainbow Dash, we did not get off on the wrong hoof, but that changed when we stopped somepony from bullying Fluttershy it went down like this FLASHBACK “Ha Fluttershy do we have to bring her with us I don’t trust her she could by a spy!” said Rainbow Dash. “She has a name you know, and for the tenth time I’m not A SPY!!!”I yelled out at Rainbow. “Can we not yell so loud and please stop fighting if that is alright with you.” said Fluttershy “But Flutter---” was all I got out when some pony’s pushed Fluttershy out of their way. That got me and Rainbow attention, and we were mad. “Hey what the heck do you think you’re doing,” yelled Rainbow “you don’t just push my friend and not say sorry to my friend now.” said Rainbow “That makes two of us apologize now.” I said to the big earth pony as I did I could smell that they reek of alcohol. The stallion looked at us with a mad look, “What are you g-g-grooming to d-do about it.” said the stallion as his friends gathered around him it was 4 earth pony’s two unicorns and three pegasuses. It was not good but what one of the unicorns said made me and Dash go fire red mad. “H-heeey! Where d’ya think yer going?”He said as he grabbed Fluttershy In his magic that made her cry out and Dash and I had had it. With my magic glowing in my horn I stomped my hooves into the ground, and long thick vines shot out of the ground and grabbed the unicorn and throw him into a carrot cart. “My carrot’s why my carrot’s !” yelled a mare. “I’ll work it off later, for now, I have some drunk stallion’s that need a good butt whooping!” I said wall more vines shot out of the ground and grabbed the other unicorn and the three earth ponies the last one got his butt handed to him by Dash. The last one was a big stallion that is on the ground thanks to Dash. The pegasus that took off from the ground so my vines would not grab them. I grind as I powered my horn up and shot out my vines that grow ten times as long into the air catching two of the Pegasus and Dash took out the last one with that I put all the drunks down with vines so the guards would come and take them away. “Okay I’ll admit you’re ok for a unicorn.” said Dash “You're not so bad yourself Dash.”Rose said. After that, I worked off to pay the mare’s coat that I had broke. Dash and I are cool now and good friends. END OF FLASHBACK After that fight pony’s started to call me the mare of nature for my use of magic that is so attuned to nature. I got more Jobs in town at the hospital making health potion and antidote. I also got a job at Sweet Apple Acres babysitting a filly named Apple Bloom for Granny Smith helped out with some chores and made a friend named Applejack. With all the jobs I had I had enough bit to build a house for myself, so with the help Dash and Applejack, I had my home on the other side of town a few feet from Fluttershy’s home. Wan, it was done Pinky came to do my surprise party. Pinky came and asked me what to do for a party for me I had to convince her to reschedule it in till I had a home. That party was so awesome that I had to make plans for my next Pinkie pie party. Today Mayor Mare has asked me, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Pinkie Pie and some white unicorn with a purple mane to meet her at town hall. “So Mayor Mare what is so important that you not only called me but four of my best friends to come to the town hall.” I said as I got closer to Fluttershy as she was my close friend. “Yes, wall Rosewood I called you all here to help with the summer sun celebration that is tomorrow and I what you girls to help. I need some of your bird’s Fluttershy to sing in the celebration. Applejack I need a lot of food as well. Rainbow Dash I need you to have the sky cleared for that day. Pinkie Pie I need a party to be your best. Rarity I need you to make the town hall decor and least Rosewood I need you to make some beautiful flowers of the sun that you grew around your home.” said Mayor Mare. It was not a big surprise that my Space flowers got so popular now. They did glow at noon as the sun and turned into the moon rose at night, but it takes me a whole night to grow a fielded with them. It takes a lot of magic to make them. It a good thing I have two areas in my backyard so I can use them. After the other left, I told the Mayor That I had the flowers, but I needed somepony to pick them up so the Mayor said she would get some ponies to come and get them at the end of the day. With that, I got home and put all the flowers into vases. THE NEXT DAY I woke up and went to look at the others at there work for the celebration. Since I was close to Fluttershy I looked for her first I found her with some bird’s one was off-key, so I hemmed the ton, and he got back in ton with the others as they landed on my mane. “Thank you for helping me Rose it is good that I didn't have to hurt his feeling.” said Fluttershy as hides behind her mane. I got close to her and nuzzled her on her head that got her to blush a little. “You are a good pony Fluttershy but don’t forget you're the best mare in town for this job.”Rose said making Fluttershy blush grow bigger. As I was talking a purple unicorn pony with what looked to by a baby dragon on her back came up behind Fluttershy so I pinned out to her and she hides behind me, “Hello, my name is Twilight Sparkle the student of Princess Celestia I’m here to meet a pony for the music intromit.” Twilight said but I sense that she was not in a good mood and was irritated so I used my magic and grabbed her in my veins and held her upside down in my eye. “Good to meet you my name is Rosewood the town pony’s call my the mare of nature this is my friend Fluttershy she loves to help others and loves animals.”I said as Fluttershy looked at the now upside down mare. “HEY put me down the blood is going to my head!” Twilight Said as I slowly put her down now. “Why did you do that and what magic was that.” she said now looking at me with sparkles in her eye. I giggled and we started to talk and I found out my other friend did a number on poor Twilight from eating too much at AJ to getting a tornado to the face by RD and being kidnapped by a unicorn for a makeover, Fluttershy was talking to the dragon name Spike about his life. As we got to the old library treehouse I could sense pony’s inside the library so I told Fluttershy so she would not get scared out of her wit's end. As we entered the library the light was off so Twilight was looking for the switch when she found it she got the scare of her life. then she fainted and began to fall to the ground but I caught her in my magic and put her down gently I looked up at pinky and said. “Pinky why did you scare her so bad the party can’t start without the guest of honor.”I said as Pinky gave me a sheepish smile. “Sorry Rose I didn’t think she would faint on seeing me, is she ok.”Pinky ask as I put Twilight on the couch. “She’ll be fine Pinkie Pie but she’ll be out for a while but I need to get to town hall can you get me some of your famous cupcakes I’ll see the rest of you girls at the celebration okay.”I said to Pinkie and Fluttershy. “I need to go as well if that is ok with you can we go together Rose.” ask Fluttershy with a blush on her cheeks. I smile and nuzzled her on the head as she nuzzled my neck as Pinkie brought my cupcakes and put them in my saddle. At the town hall, I saw my sunflowers glowing and slowly turning into moon rose flowers the magic that was coming from them filled the room and fed me more power. I see Fluttershy with her bird’s doing some practices and I a next hour all of Ponyville came to town hall I saw Twilight with Spike on her back. All was going well as the Mayor Mare announced for the princes to come out but no one came out somepony we concern. Then I sense a powerful energy all around the room and I hear Twilight say “Oh no she’s free” wan she stated that I listened to a lighting and a mare’s mad laughter. I looked up and saw an alicorn with black fur and fang’s she looked evil and I sense but one small sad part of her in the back of her mind. As Twilight was done telling us that this was Nightmare moon and she plans to make night eternal I started to get mad this fooles mare would kill all life out of Jealousy for the princess of the day. My thoughts were cut out when the mayor orders the guards to capture her but fail when lightning struck them then Rainbow Dash got out of Applejack lock and flew up to attack but was shot back down. using my magic I caught her in time but I was really mad now. “YOU DARE HURT MY FRIEND!!!” I yelled as my magic was now going wild and the floor began to crack as vines began to shoot out everywhere. All the ponies in the room backed away as my vines all shootout at Nightmare the look she had and what I sense said it all she needed to fallback my power was stronger than her’s was she turned into a mist but not fast enough as five of my vines hit her on her head and wing I could see the pain in her eyes when they hit she fled as the room grew quiet. I run to Rainbow Dash and use my magic to heal her wounds and her wing. “You ok Dash my magic took all of the pain, but I need you to tell me if you feel any pain.”I ask as the room started to get into a panic over Nightmare. “Rose just how powerful are you.” ask Dash with a look of shock. I was given a sheepish smile and said “For my friend’s I would have put all my magic for all of you.”I said well nuzzling her head which she happily returned “Okay okay let’s stop with the mushy stuff and figure out how to stop nightmare.” said Rainbow Dash while ruffling up her wings. “I think Twilight might have an idea but we have to find her first can you get the girl’s and head to the library.”I ask Rainbow Dash she said yes and took off to get them as I headed to the library. As I got I saw Twilight put Spike to bed and go loco in her library with books flying everywhere I used my magic and made the wood on the floor grab her and trundle her to face me. “Twilight I need you to be calm and tell me what you are looking for and how to stop Nightmare Moon.”I said in a soothing voice. “okay okay, I need help finding a book of the element of harmony they’re the only thing that can defeat Nightmare Moon.”Twilight said as a blue pegasus got in her face. “So what are these elements of harmony who are you, are you a spy.” said Rainbow Dash, but was pulled down by Applejack. “now hold on there Rainbow I know she is not a spy but she knows something don’t you Twilight.” Twilight looked at all the mare’s in the room and began explaining Nightmare moon return that she had found in canterlot and how she needs to found the element of harmony to stop Nightmare Moon. “The element of harmony: a reference guide.”Pinkie Pie said as Twilight shoved her out of the way. “how did you find that.”Twilight said while looking at the book. “It was under EEEEE.”Pinkie said in a sing-song voice. “Oh.” said Twilight with a little embarrassment on her face,”there are seven elements of harmony, but only five are known kindness, laughter, generosity, honesty, and loyalty. The sixth is a complete mystery and the seventh was never found some ponies say it will come when nature demands it, protector. It is said the last-know location of the five elements was in the ancient castle of roy--.” said Twilight. But that is as far as I got to hear from Twilight as I sense something at the window I looked up and saw a mist blue cloud that left the window and I ran out. It led me to the--. My thoughts were interrupted by the combined voices from behind me. “The Everfree forest.!” said the mare’s behind me scaring me half to death. “Why did you have to scare me like that?” I said shaking from the scar. They had a sheepish smile on their faces, “Wee let’s go!” Pinke said but was stopped. “Not so fast. Look I appreciate the offer, I’d really rather do this on my own.” said Twilight “Ok, that is it!” I yelled as my magic grabbed her off the ground and put her right in front of me. “I don’t care if you want us or not that mare in there hurt my friend she also threatens to destroy nature itself which I love and I will stop her if it takes every magic I have to stop her!” I yelled as I walked into the forest cutting off the power that was holding her and draping her to the ground. I heard hoof-steps behind me and was hearing Applejack tell Twilight something but I wasn’t paying attention. “So, none of you have been in here before?” asked Fluttershy. “I have like I said I love nature and the everfree is one of the most natural nature there is.”I said. The hoof-steps behind me had stopped I looked back and saw the girls looking at me with wide-eyes. “what you think that nickname I got was all about my magic I get my ingredients for my potions here in this forest and the creatures here don’t bother me at all.”I said looking at the funny look that they were giving me. “What is your nickname.” ask Rarity with a curious look on her face. I smiled and said, “the town has been calling me the mare of nature, some for my magic, others for seeing me go into the everfree on a daily bases.” That got Twilight attention, “ What magic is that I have looked at all the magic books and the magic that you use I can’t fin-.” that was all she said as the cliff collapses and we fell down. With my magic, I made vines to grab me and put me down to the ground below. I saw Rainbow get Pinkie and Fluttershy had Rarity but Applejack was holding Twilight as she dangled off the edge of the cliff. I didn’t have time to think so I used my magic and gathered all the leaves on the ground and put them all under her. Applejack saw what I did and was talking to Twilight a min later, and she let go off the cliff and fall into the giant leaf pile. After those other weird things started happening a manticore I know for years attacked us but with Fluttershy’s help that was resolved but then the incident with Pinkie you gotta see this. After that, it was Rarity that surprised me when she cut her tail off and give it to the sea serpent, and then Dash meets this shadowbolt that try to win her over on their side but just like always Dach never leaves a friend behind. As we got to the old castle I sensed that something or one was looking at us so I waited outside for them but when the girls came out without Twilight l now that something was wrong my suspicions were confirmed when I heard Twilight yell out. We run I get as Twilight jump into a portal we looked for her and saw a light in a tower we run and yelled for Twilight as we got there I here Twilight tall the Nightmare how my friends were the element and how she saw them as her friend’s as well. Nightmare said that she didn't have the six elements but Twilight said how she is the six element of magic as a tiara and 5 necklaces formed around my friends. But something was wrong I sense that Nightmare was not scared like she was waiting for this and how right I was as the girl’s shot a rainbow beam at her only for her to teleport behind the girls and shot a magic beam at them sent them flying into the ground in pain. Something in me snapped and as my magic was calling all the power of nature to me as glowing orbs floating around so came into me. “YOU HURT MY FRIEND’S NOW I HURT YOU!!”I yelled as the ground open up, and vines with thorns came out with plants that had teeth shot out and bet at her with stones falling and hiting her. My plants shot out biting or hitting her as she fought back with me blasting my plants or putting my vines on fire but my plants grow back two of my plants hit her but she blasted me with a magic blast that hit me into a wall, I got back up used my magic to sand seven thorn vines and two teeth head at her wall forcing the ground to break out and shot the stone out at her, she blocks it with her barrier. Wall the battle was going on the girl’s had gotten back on their hoofs and saw the struggle. It looked like nature itself was fighting Nightmare, and it was on equal footing with her. The expression on the girl’s faces is as followed: Twilight was shocked Rainbow and Applejack we’re rooting for Rose Rarity and Fluttershy eye were the sizes of dinner plates and Pinkie was sitting wall eating popcorn. “Just how powerful is Rose to be on equal power to an alicorn.” said Twilight “I don’t know but she looks like she is holding her own out there.” said Rainbow But that was gone when Rose was shot into the ground and the planes stop their attack on Nightmare. “You think you can stop me the element couldn't the princess couldn’t do you think you can stop me!”Nightmare laughed at me. My response was shooting her with green beans of magic that sent her flying into a wall. “I don’t give two bit of what you think of me are the dream you have for the land, but you hurt my friend's hurt the craters of this forest and now thread my home I will do all I can to stop you.” I said and shot another blast at her. She shot her magic back at me into my blast both hit as the push us back. As the battle continued the girl’s elements stare to glow and the orbs glowed that I had gathered before the elements shot magic out at me with the orbs and into me I started to glow and a glowing green forest amulet appeared around my neck. I don’t know what was going on but I could feel the magic in my amulet so I told the girls to form up and blast here wall I put magic into my amulet as the girls did what I said I put my magic into the amulet and it forces me to shot out a forest green beam out of it that hit Nightmare Moon she stop moving and I could feel a small part of her that was taking control when the girls shot out another rainbow at her she didn’t move and it hit home as the light grew brighter I could see two being one that fell on the ground the other was torn apart as the magic was beginning to fade and when it was gone what was left was a small alicorn with blue fur and star blue astral mane. The girls were out cold. So I grew some soft grass and moved them and the out cold alicorn. As the sleep, I looked at my amulet as it glowed with my cutie mark started to glow. When it stopped, I saw my cutie mark. It had my rosewood tree but around the tree was glowing orbs with the amulet in the center. I turned off my disguise and saw that I had the cutie mark still on me. “Ok that is new, but I like it so it good.”I said as I heard somepony wake up I put up my disguise and saw Fluttershy I walked over to her and nuzzled her on her head which earned a blush from her “Good morning sleepy head.” That got her to get rose red cheeks. “Good to see you to Rose are you hurt.”Fluttershy said My smile grows “I’m ok I used some healing magic on myself and our friend’s.” I said as I blasted a healing spell at the alicorn and the girls. The others started to wake up. “Oh what happened?” asked Rainbow. “Oh got into a fight with a mad goddess, got a magic amulet that hit said goddess to free a part of her that was trapped in her and have you girls free her.” I said very fast. “Wall all say that there was a mighty fine show you put on Rose.” said Applejack as she came toward me. “Yes darling it was quite the battle it was as if you and the forest we and the same.” said Rarity as she woke up. “Inowitwaslikeboomandyouwerelikepowandthanyouw-.”Pinke Pie said but was stop by Twilight hoof in her mouth. “Yes I like to know what is that amulet around your neck.” ask Twilight “I think it is the last element of harmony, but I don’t know its name please it is now no my cutie mark look.”I said to show my flank that has my mark. “WHAT but that impassable a cutie mark can’t change like that!!”Twilight yelled out as the rest of the girl’s looked at my new cutie mark. “That is all and good girl’s, but we need to wake up the sleeping princess that is over there and find princess Celestia oh and Rarity your tail grow back.”I said and heard a scream of joy as I walk over to the princess, the girl’s saw her and we a little neva's of her I just rolled my eye at them. “She is right Twilight but let me go first as it has been too long.” said a voice from above as me and the girl’s looked up to see Celestia as her sunlight came into the sky,the girl’s bowed,I poured my magic into my horn and made a grass field appear as Celestia landed she was surprised that I made a grass field appear under her but more so that I was not bowing to her. “Princess Celestia!”Twilight yelled as she hugged her mentor by her lag. “It is good to see you Twilight I’m so proud of you for --.” That is as far as I heard Celestia say as I went to the sleeping alicorn. She was starting to wake up so I used my magic to help her up she looked me in the eye I smiled at her. “Good to see the princess of the night is up are you feeling better now.” I ask wail looking her in the eyes she was as tall as me, and her horn was just as long as mine was. “We are fine but what about you, using so much magic all at once and against an alicorn too.” she said with a tearful look. I smiled at her and nuzzled her neck she blushed but smiled and nuzzled me back as the bigger alicorn came up behind me I stepped aside and saw tears in their eyes I found out her name is Luna and she is the sister of Celeste the girls were shocked but I was not in shock it did say in the legends that the younger sister was jealous of the older sister if Celeste was the older than it is not hard to figure out. “I have a question for you my little pony why did you not bow when you see me as most ponies do.” Celeste asks in a whisper. I looked at her with a grin and I leaned in and whispered in her ear. “Let us talk after the other are not around ok.”I said she looks at me and nodded as yes. After we got out have the forest me and Luna bonded and we became friend’s, Twilight got promise to stay in ponyville and studied the magic of friendship. With the help of the princess’s and the girls we named my element the amulet of nature but then it merged into my body and was gone but I could feel it in my body so it was good. When the princesses and I were alone far from town, I told them about myself the real self at first, they didn't believe me but wane my disgust was gone the beloved me it was hours of taking I learned that Twilight got her stade habit from Celeste she had pulled out a notebook and quill out of nowhere. “So you are royalty and now you live here in ponyville interesting.” said Celeste “So you're a proto-Queen and in a few months your ascension will make you into a Queen.” said Luna. “Yes but I don’t know about the element and it gave me a cutie mark changeling's don’t get them and now I have one do you know why?”I asked them but even they didn’t know. “Wall it is good to meet you proto-Queen Rosewood and I have an idea come to canterlot some time’s wane it is time and you become a Queen we can see if we can make an alliance with you and your future hive.”Celeste said I thought it over and it was a go ides having the princess as would help me in the future and my people with that I said “It would be perfect to be your future alliance and friend.” with a smile a gave a hoof sake and the future alliance was made.
