> The Human Chronicles: The End Is Neigh > by thatguyfromkfc > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > The Beggining of the End > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Angel, you really need to more." Said Fluttershy. The white rabbit just turned round, arms crossed. "Angel..." Fluttershy repeated. Angel turned round and bit Fluttershy on the hoof. Fluttershy's eyes started watering and she burst into tears. Angel just hopped off. "Fluttershy, are you ok?" Asked a voice. Fluttershy turned round to see a cyan pegasus standing there. "Yeah, I'm fine Rainbow Dash..." Replied Fluttershy wiping her eyes with her hoof. "You sure?" Questioned Rainbow Dash. "Yes, I'm sure. Angel just bit me and hopped off." Fluttershy said sadly. Rainbow Dash wasn't listening she was staring at the sky. "Rainbow Dash?" Asked Fluttershy. Fluttershy turned to look in the direction Rainbow Dash was looking in. Fluttershy gasped "Not again!" She exclaimed. There was a cloud of black smoking hanging over not just Ponyville but as far as the eye could see. Rainbow Dash looked at Fluttershy "We gotta tell the others" she said. When Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash got there, however, everyone was already gathered staring up at the cloud looming over them. A low growl came from the west end of the cloud. Fluttershy let out a high pitched squeal. Suddenly Twilight, Applejack and Rarity apeared behind them. "Princess Celestia wants to see us, immediately." Said Twilight quickly. The six mares ran up the hall towards Princess Celestia. "Princess Celestia!" They all exclaimed. Princess Celestia turned round. "I need your help." Said the princess "There is a prophecy that predicts the end of Equestria and this is part of it. It speaks of an ancient evil that threatens to destroy Equestria and the cloud of darkness is the first sign of the end. It also speaks of six mares who rise up to defeat it. It doesn't speak of whether or not they succeed." Fluttershy started backing off slowly. "Fluttershy..." Said Applejack "Ya can't go now. The princess needs us." Fluttershy kept backing off. "ALL of us." Continued Applejack. Fluttershy sighed and stayed where she was. "So let me get this straight." Said Twilight to the princess "You want US to try and stop this ancient evil?" "Yes. You six are the mares the prophecy spoke of." Princess Celestia replied. "Pardon me princess." Applejack said "But are you sure we can do this?" "I'm positive. You stopped Nightmare Moon and Discord." Replied the princess. "But that was with the elements!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed. "You may not have the elements." The princess explained "But you have her." The princess pointed a hoof at Fluttershy. "From what I know the ancient evil is most probably an animal." Celestia continued. "And if it not?" Asked Fluttershy. "Then you have Rainbow Dash, Applejack and Twilight." Replied Celestia. "What about me?" Rarity said. The six mares and the princess turned to look at Rarity. "What? I was only asking!" Rarity said. Princess Celestia went and looked out of the window. "You should go now." She said. The six mares ran in the direction a guard had pointed them to. This was it. It was time to save Equestria. To be continued... > A Stranger > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The six mares ran across the barren wasteland they had been pointed towards. "Twi, are you sure we're in the right place?" Asked Applejack looking worried. "I'm sure." Replied Twilight looking at Applejack. Suddenly, a strange outline appeared on the horizon. "Applejack, does that look familiar to you?" asked Rainbow Dash. "Yep. But it can't be. He couldn't get back here could he?" Replied Applejack as the figure stumbled forward. It fell to the ground with a thump and the six mares rushed forward. The strange figure rolled over and the mares gasped. Lying there was the strange person who had escaped from the Rainbow Factory. "How did you get back here?" Asked Rainbow Dash. "I was fighting someone and they fell through some sort of portal. I followed him and, I ended up here..." the creature said. "But who and what are you?" Asked Rarity. "I'm Jake and I'm what is known as a human." Replied the creature. "Is that the same portal that got you into the Rainbow Factory." Asked Rainbow Dash. "Yeah, why?" Asked Jake. "Then maybe that's where that guy went." Replied Rainbow Dash. "Good point. But we can't just go to the Rainbow Factory. I'm not sure how I stood on that cloud in the first place!" Said Jake. "Well, now your with us you might as well help." Said Twilight. "Hey, Twi?" Asked Applejack. "Yeah?" Replied Twilight. "D'ya think we should get goin'?" Asked Applejack. "Good point." Said Twilight "Lets get going. We've got people to save." The six mares and Jake ran up the mountain towards where they would meet there fate. They would either leave this place triumphant or not leave at all. They reached the top and what met there eyes almost made them stumble off of the mountain. "What is that thing!?" Exclaimed Rarity "It is simply revolting!" "Rarity, you're gonna wake it up." Whispered Rainbow Dash, cautiously. "Bu--" Rainbow Dash put her hoof over Rarity's mouth. "Shut up" She said through gritted teeth. Then there was a loud bang and the creature woke. The creature was gigantic. It brown wings blotted out the sun and it's breath...it's breath smelt like rotten flesh. There was no turning back now. It was time to face their destiny. To be continued... > The Final Battle > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The creature looked down at the six mares and the human that were looking up at it. Fluttershy let out an audible squeak of fear. The creature roared and brought it's gigantic fist down towards Fluttershy. Rainbow Dash flew towards her knocking her out of the way and just missing being hit herself. "How are we gonna stop this thing!" She yelled. The monster looked at her "Uh oh..." She said. She dived out of the way falling off the side of the mountain. "RAINBOW DASH!" Yelled Pinkie as the cyan pegasus plummeted towards the ground completley forgetting about her wings. The five remaning mares had a sudden burst of determination. Jake suddenly jumped at the creature only to be knocked backwards. The five mares suddenly lost all determination. "Twilight, don't you have some sort of spell to help us?" Asked Jake. "I have one but it might not work..." Replied Twilight. "TRY IT ANYWAY!" Yelled Pinkie, Applejack, Rarity, Fluttershy and Jake in unison. "It will only work on Pinkie, Rarity, Applejack and Fluttershy though" Twilight said to Jake, her horn lighting up. She turned to the four mares and there was a flash. When the flash went away the mares had horns. "Alright then..." Pinkie said "Lets get this bitch" The mares stood there in unison. "Lets do it" Said Twilight to the others. All five mares' horns lit up. The creature laughed at them until it saw the light grow bigger and bigger. The creature looked worried. Then rays of light shot out of the mares' horns hurtling towards the creature. Then suddenly...they all connected. The creature's eyes widened. The rays slammed into the creature sending it flying over the side of the mountain. All five mares collapsed from exaustion. It was over. They had done it. The prophecy had been fulfilled. There was a loud crash as the creature's limp body hit the ground. All five mares looked at eachother in relief. The five mares walked up the hall towards Princess Celestia all eyes were on them. When they had returned they were greeted by cheering ponies. "Where's Rainbow Dash?" Questioned Princess Celestia. All of the mares looked sad. "She fell off the side of the mountain trying not to be crushed by the creatures fist." Said Pinkie crying. "Really." Said Princess Celestia "Because we found a cyan pegasus at the bottom of the mountain. She was injured but alive." The princess nodded towards the door where a cyan pegasus stood. "Rainbow Dash!" All five mares ran towards the cyan pegasus. "Hey guys!" Said Rainbow Dash "I think he should get some recognition to" Rainbow Dash tilted her head towards Jake who was standing behind her. All of the crowd were looking at him. Many were asking "What is that strange creature?" Others were just staring. "I'm just glad it's over." Said Twilight. All of the mares laughed in unison. Everything was back to normal... for now. But thats another story THE END!
