Ponycraft Saga - Book 1: This Land

by Onyx Glitch

First published

All that explains the disappearance of Twilight and her friends is a journal (Minecraft)(1st)

Little is known of what lays beyond the land of Equestria. Tales of wondrous endless lands of odd peculiarities, others of horrific lands that would drive even the strongest of stallions mad. Not much is known of these lands, but one thing is for certain... those who enter never return and by if some miracle they do, they are never the same.

(geez i am terrible at descriptions. Actually, all you really need to know is that this this a twisted take on the mane 6 finding themselves in the world of Minecraft read from the journal of Twilight Sparkle)

This is a little idea i've had on my mind for a while after messing around with the recent Minecraft updates and stuff it's a Minecraft sort of story crossover thing.

First installment of my 'My Little Ponycraft Saga' thing

Yay! Horrible MS Paint cover pic by yours truly.

Be prepared for bad grammar and punctuation, i'm not the best writer. But hey if you wish to edit it there are instructions on how to edit along with my emails on my user page

“Get this door opened!” commanded a calm yet at the same time worried voice.



There were several bangs on the door before it finally gave in. Several ponies dawning golden armor entered the room, followed by two taller ponies. The younger of the two's eyes widened as she bolted past the armoured ponies back outside.



“Princess Luna!” one of the guards yelled as he followed.



The older of the two looked around the shack in horror.



The shack was dark, barely lit by a single poorly made torch. The entire shack was covered in cobwebs and the smell of rotten flesh hung strongly in the air. The only window in the small building was heavily boarded up.



Princess Luna wearily stepped back into the shack. “Tia… sister?” She question softly.



The elder looked to the darkest side of the shack. Slowly, she walked casting a soft illumination from her horn. Almost immediately, she fell back into Luna.



In the corner sat a single journal, beside it laid a lavender horn caked in dried blood.



Luna casted her own illumination making the room even brighter, allowing her to see what had frightened her sister, but her glow revealed more.



On the wall written in dried blood “CELESTIA HELP ME I'M SCAR__”



Luna lifted the journal and looked to her sister who was now in tears, she returned to the journal. What in Equestria happened here?

“Ink?”



“Check.”



“Parchment?”



“Check.”



“House sitter?”



“… Check”



“Spike, why did you hesitate?”



“Well… are you sure it’s a good idea to let Rainbow Dash watch the place after last time?”



Memories of her previous trip away from the library flashed through her mind. Returning back and being welcomed home by a wall of water as she opened the door.



“Sooo… uncheck?” Spike asked.



“Oh no no no! This is horrible! Where are we going to find a house sitter on such short notice? We’re supposed to be leaving in an hour!” Twilight started to panic.



“I could watch the library.” Spike suggested.



“Don’t be silly, Spike. You’re coming with us, how else will I send letters to the Princess while we’re on vacation?”



“Uh, Twilight. That’s just it… It’s a vacation, I don’t think the Princess would want you sending letters while you're on, you know, vacation.”



Twilight tapped her hoof a couple of times. “Are you sure?"



“Yeah sure, just give my ticket to Rainbow Dash I guess.” He replied with a shrug.



“Alright fine, but if you're not coming then I want to send Princess Celestia a letter,” Twilight pouted.



“… Now?”



“Now Spike!” Twilight ordered the little dragon.



“Ugh! Geez, okay.” Spike grabbed a fresh piece of parchment and quill, “Okay go.”



“Dear Princess Celestia, I’d like to thank you for sending me tickets for a cruise with my friends. I really wish you would have said where it was to, but I guess we’ll find out when we get to the ship right? Anyways, Spike offered to watch the library while we’re gone, so unfortunately I won’t be able to send you any letters for a week. Your faithful student, Twilight Sparkle.”Twilight finished. “Did you get all of that?”



“Yup got it,” Spike assured her as he rolled up the letter.



“Okay, I’ve gotta go. No parties, keep the library clean… and please… please don’t flood it. Oh and don’t forget to send that letter.” Twilight levitated her bags out the door and closed it behind her.



Spike opened the window and inhaled, but stopped. "The princess doesn't need to know right now... does she? Eh, I’ll send it later.”

This is Twilight Sparkle, I’ve taken all pieces of parchment I had to make this little journal… in case things get worse.



It started yesterday when me and my friends; Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Rarity (after much struggling), Fluttershy, and Pinkie Pie left for a cruise Princess Celestia gave me tickets for. The ship was horrible. It was small, smelled awful, and also leaked which was not what the tickets stated it would be like.



Anyways, it was night when the ship got caught in a storm and capsized. Everypony was thrown into the sea. Fortunately there was land nearby. As soon as we got to shore the rain stopped, but when I stepped back into the water it was still raining, not to mention everything looks blocky. Seriously, this place is strange.



The stress of the situation is getting to everypony. Rarity is taking this pretty hard, not because of the situation, but because she has no shampoo to clean her mane. Fluttershy on the other hoof is worried (the ship’s captain is missing).



It’s getting dark so we’re gonna try to find a place to stay for the night. Then tomorrow we’ll figure something out.

// Day 2

We’ve managed to calm down slightly (not really). After a long restless night in a damp cave, we ventured out to try and get our bearings. The land is quite enormous and, as I said before, very strange. Everything is blocky... even the animals. Not very many though. We’ve only seen pigs, cows, and chickens.



We finally agreed it was probably best to stay near the shore in case rescue came by boat. We began constructing a small shack next to the cave we stayed in. At first we were going to stay in the cave again, but after Applejack tried to buck an apple (so we don’t starve) out of a tree and a tiny block of wood went flying into Pinkie Pie (she’s fine) we not only found out we could get wood easily, but we also found out we didn’t need nails to construct things. The blocks ignore the laws of gravity and just stay wherever they are placed.



Rainbow Dash said she wouldn’t go anywhere near the cave and was complaining of hearing strange noises in the cave last night, but no pony believes her... as usual. I’m mean Rainbow is well known for her pranks... she’s obviously trying to take advantage of the situation and give us a scare... scratch that Rainbow did manage to freak out Fluttershy, but I think she’s more freaked out that it might be a little animal lost deeper in the cave. Great, now she’ll be freaking out about the captain and an animal that doesn’t exist, thanks Rainbow. Anyways, Rainbow demanded we made a back entrance.

Still, nopony has shown up for us, but that’s to be expected. After all, the vacation is for a week, but I don’t see any difficulties in surviving a week especially after what Applejack discovered.



After collecting more wood logs, she placed a stack (materials apparently stack here if you have more than one of the same material. It clusters into a small stack, 64 being the maximum. This place gets more and more intriguing each day) into one of her saddlebag’s pockets. Later, when she went to take them back out, they had turned into planks of wood, PLANKS! Oh, but that’s not all. When I returned from telling the others of her discovery (none being interested though) she had a table of some sort that she was building things on.



Rarity returned with her saddlebag full of some roses, dandelions, and some kind of bean. Pinkie Pie almost exploded with joy, stating that they were cocoa beans. Great, so all we have to live off of are a few flowers and chocolate… Still, it’s better than nothing.



Fluttershy spent all morning in the water trying to find the cruise ship’s captain, no luck. We finally convinced her that she can’t help him on an empty stomach. After she finished eating she rushed back to her search. To make things worse for her, it’s still raining in the ocean.



After dinner I decided to try my hoof at finding more food. My efforts... unimpressive.



Side Note: I saw something when I returned to the shack, I think a pair of eyes were peering at me from the cave. It made me feel uneasy... I think I will ask Applejack to help me make a fence tomorrow.

Sweet Celestia things are not going good any more. I mean, it was all going fine yesterday... until. Well, yesterday I got AJ to help me start on the fence. She didn’t understand or even share my worries. She said that I’m starting to let Dash get to me.



We were close to finishing fencing in the area where we started a small farm when some... thing wondered into the garden. It looked like a green... well I guess pony, but like everything else here, made of blocks. And its face looked so sad.



Fluttershy saw it and immediately ran over and started hugging it saying, “Oh, aren’t you just the cutest thing. Why are you so sad?” As she did, it started to hiss and grow larger and then it exploded. It sent Fluttershy flying into the water. Fluttershy would have drowned if it wasn’t for Rainbow Dash, not that she can’t swim, but she was knocked unconscious.



As soon as Rainbow got Fluttershy inside the shack more of those things started coming, we all locked ourselves inside. The farm was demolished and we lost everything except for what we already had in the shack. Which isn't much.



Fluttershy survived the explosion, but she’s still unconscious and badly hurt... Figures, the only one of us that has any medical experience is the one who is in need of it. We used up most of our fresh water to clean her up.



Rarity may not know anything medical, but she sure can stitch. I don’t even know where Rarity got string from, but I’m not complaining. She just may have save Fluttershy’s life.

// Day 8

They finally left, those green things. It has been three days since... well, you know, and over those three days we’ve learned that sheep, cows, chickens, and those green monsters aren’t the only creatures in this land (and that its far more dangerous)... there are many more.



Giant spiders, we’ve seen them before during the day but they were always passive. Although they become horribly vicious at night. Fluttershy took a weird liking to them before we got trapped in our shack. Speaking of which, Fluttershy is doing much better. Yesterday she woke up confused as ever, the first thing she asked was if that thing was alright. Dash lied and said it went home. Rarity and Pinkie kept Fluttershy away for the window.



There were also skeletal ponies; they appeared to have some sort of device melded to their fore hoof, when they raise it and draw back their head they shoot something. Not really sure what it is, but it looks like it can do a fair amount of damage. Useless against the shack though. Actually, given the size of it now, I’d say it’s more of a small cabin.



Finally we saw zomponies (no description needed). Good thing Spikes not here, he’d be freaking out.



When it turned morning the skelecolts (as I’ve decided to call them) and the zomponies caught on fire and started burning up. Guess they don’t like the sun, thank Celestia.



The giant spiders appeared to return passive and the... green things. Sad explosive monsters? No, no that’s silly. Creepy things... Creepers? Yeah that will work. The Creepers, I guess lost interest and left, some into the cave others into the forest next to our cabin.



The only other thing to report is that over the three days our food dwindled to nothing. Applejack volunteered to search for some food. I offered to go and help, but she said that everypony needs to be here incase help comes and to also finish getting the fence up, so we gave her the last of our fresh water.

Day 9

Applejack returned earlier this morning with, finally, some good news she found a village... with ponies, she managed to obtain some food, water, and weapons the only ponies I’ve ever seen carry weapons are the royal guards... even still I don’t think I’ve ever seen them use them. Needless to say Fluttershy and I both refused to use them.

Rainbow Dash on the other hoof was eager to take the weapons and the armour... typical pegasi. She spent the rest of the day swinging her sword at the air.

With all the seeds AJ got from the village our farm has never been fuller. We got melon seeds, pumpkin seeds, wheat, sugar cane, and more cocoa beans (a little added note crops seem to grow pretty fast in this place.)

Pinkie has been sitting in front of the wheat ever since AJ planted it... watching it grow. She said she needs it for the cookies that mare sure loves her cookies. Pinkie became more excited when AJ stored some bottles of milk and some chicken eggs in one of our chest, she wouldn’t stop singing the word cake... over and over again.

Not sure where Rarity got off to, but the pickaxe AJ got is missing so I guess she went mining. Strange when we got here she was complaining about not having shampoo, now she’s willing to go into a dark damp dirty cave for some useless gems.

Side Note: When I asked AJ if she could show me where the village was, she quickly said “no, it’s through the desert and it’s dangerous... a waste of water too.” I ask again this time saying I wanted to meet the pony villagers, maybe they can help us. She quickly cut me off with another "no" and said "end of story" then stormed off to bed.

Day 10

It was quiet this morning. Not a sound; no banging on the door, no moans, there wasn't even the sound of burning monsters. Everypony was still asleep in their beds except for me... and Rainbow Dash, her bed was empty. When I peeked out the window I saw her hacking monsters to bits... laughing as she did so. I'm not sure, but I think I saw her cutting off... zompony ear and hiding them under her wing. I don't know I might have just been seeing things, I did just wake up when that happened after all.

Rarity was still gone, but the pickaxe was back nearly broken might I add. Rarity must have come back sometime last night and dropped off the pickaxe and a bunch of torches (figures a piece of coal tied to a wooden stick doesn’t set the stick on fire, guess that’s why I never thought of making torches... then again I never even thought to mine coal.) then left again.

It was a quiet day today nopony talked at all, I’m sure we were all thinking the same thing. It’s been over a week since we got stranded here, we gave it two more days (obviously we’re not going to be reported missing on the day we were supposed to return).

Fluttershy has given up on the captain; I’m just amazed she kept hope for him this long. She asked if we could hold a funeral for him. Honestly it was the most awkward thing ever; none of us knew him so not much was said. Fluttershy was the only one to cry, Applejack kept acting nervous, Pinkie Pie kept licking her lips and mumbling something, and Rainbow Dash kept checking her wing I really hope I was just delusional this morning from depression.

Day 12

Pinkie Pie started to act weird. She was shouting... well I don’t even know what she was shouting, it just sounded like a bunch of meaningless things. She has also started to slap a lot and make threats. After she slapped Rainbow we all had to restrain her and I mean we had to restrain Rainbow Dash, Pinkie just laughed and trotted off.

I haven’t seen Rarity since four days ago. I asked the girls if they knew where she was and Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, and Rainbow Dash all asked me who Rarity was... all of them claim that they’ve never known a Rarity.

I went to ask AJ and she said she was just fixing to come ask me that. Only Applejack and I remember her... What’s going on? I know everypony is probably stressed out by the situation, but that is no reason to lie.

When diner time came around nopony talked they just sat in their place and ate, thankfully we no longer had to ration food because of Applejack. After diner Pinkie Pie laid out an enormous buffet of desserts.

She broke the silence and said "come on everypony I know things look bad, but we still have each other. Now turn those frowns upside down... try the cupcakes! They are a rare occasion after all." (She smiled and giggled at that last sentence) Pinkie Pie... no she wouldn't, she couldn't. I know everypony's acting a bit weird, but that's over the edge. besides she did say that she's never known a Rarity.

Day 15

Today Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie got into a fight, Fluttershy got hurt pretty bad. Pinkie Pie also got pretty badly hurt too. She’s not one to fight, but when she does rarely, Fluttershy sure can mess somepony up.

Rainbow Dash has been in the corner mumbling something for the past hour. Her wing appeared to have been bleeding. I tried to help her but she pushed me away and said, “Stay away from me, you can’t have them! They’re all mine, I won them!”

I checked on Fluttershy to see if she was okay... she built a shrine... to a pile of dirt she named Sturdy Wood... that was the name of the ship's captain it was also the ship’s name too, which ironically wasn’t so sturdy after all.

Pinkie Pie was gone, after the fight we had tied her up, but now she was gone... what a surprise. There is a trail of cookie crumbs leading into the forest yeah like I’m going to follow that Pinkie.

Applejack left last night so she doesn’t know about Fluttershy and Pinkie Pies fight. I think she said something about trying to find Rarity... I don’t think she’s coming back though; she took a lot of supplies like food, water, tools, and weapons.

Everypony has lost it! I’m the only sane pony here now, but even now I feel myself slipping.

Be brave Twilight, Celestia will come... she wouldn’t forget about me.

Day 16

Screw them all, I left. Maybe if I’m on my own I won’t lose my damn mind as well. Maybe I’ll find Rarity and Applejack along the way.

I decided to check on the girls to see if they were okay after what happened yesterday. The events that follow are what led me to decide to leave.

I tried asking Rainbow Dash if she was okay, she was a bit to preoccupied plucking her own feathers out. I asked her what she was doing and she laughed and said, “Ha, of course a namby pamby unicorn like you wouldn’t understand.” I doubt she even understood what she was doing herself.

Pinkie Pie was next; I found her exactly where I thought she’d be, the forest, I didn’t go near it though. The cookie crumbs were still there and I saw Pinkie staring at me from behind a tree. As she was staring she was tossing more cookie crumbs down, she didn’t even take her eyes off me... it was kind of creepy. When she realized it wasn’t working, she threw a book in front of the tree I’m pretty sure I heard her say “take the bait, take it...” I just walked away.

When I checked on Fluttershy I was fairly surprised by how warmly I was welcomed, then disturbed by what happened. Our conversation went as followed;

“Oh Twilight it’s good to see you! You are just what we need... a unicorn!”

“We?”

“Oh of course, how rude... we,” Fluttershy pulled a lever opening a secret room.

“SWEET CELESTIA! Fluttershy is that the ship’s captain?” she had the corpse of the ship’s captain sitting in a makeshift chair surrounded by torches I’m assuming her pile of dirt from yesterday was turned into this overnight.

His name is Sturdy Wood, and yes. Can you believe the luck? After the funeral his body washed ashore, I was so happy. At first I didn’t know what to do, but yesterday it hit me... quite literally after Pinkie bucked me in the face.”

“And that is?” I nervously asked.

“Well, you’re a unicorn... we can bring him back to life with your magic... I mean if that’s okay with you, so will you help? I completely understand if you don’t want to.”

“Um... I’ll get back with you on that.” I said as I started to back up.

“Oh... um, okay. I guess I should think of an alternative in case you don’t want to help.” She pulled out a sword that appeared to be made of diamond, “do think a sacrifice will work?”

I didn’t answer I just bolted out of her shrine; this is when I decided it was a good time to leave them all.

Day 17

Well I spent the rest of yesterday running as far away from the old place as I could. I can’t begin to explain how huge this land is probably as big as Equestria... no not even that, it seems as big as a planet. I don’t know much about this world, but so far I’ve traveled through a snowy forest and a desert.

I decided to build a small shack at the edge of the desert its right next to a river. There is also a small hut next to my shack I think it might have been AJ’s. Nothing interesting is really happening at the moment. I think I’ll look around the surrounding area for a bit and write if I come across anything interesting when I return.




I found it, the village Applejack discovered; it was smack dab in the middle of a large plain. It... it was completely burnt to the ground. Everypony was dead; they were just left there lying on the ground... dead. I checked the buildings what was left of them that is, every single chest was cleaned out.

I can’t let myself believe Applejack would do that. Sure everypony was acting crazy, but she was sane... how...

I can’t think right now, it’s starting to rain and my head hurts I’m going to sleep. If I feel up to it in the morning I’ll... I don’t know.

Day 18

Day 18

When I woke up this morning I sat on my makeshift bed and stared at the floor for hours probably. Applejack had to be alive, the hut is proof she or Rarity must have come this way. She couldn’t have built it when she found the village it’s not even anywhere close to it and it’s completely off the path Applejack would have taken to get to the village.

Unfortunately for me when I left the others I didn’t really have time to grab much, no tools or weapons even if I did I don’t think I’d even be able to use a weapon, sooo. I had to wait until the monster burnt up and left.

When the coast was clear I went to take a better look at AJ’s hut or Rarity’s the only thing inside of it was a bed a few broken tools and some kind of record disc (it looks all tattered and ruined, it didn’t even look playable) I don’t have anything to play it on, even though it probably wouldn’t play even if I tried, so I just decided to place it in my chest.

It’s really foggy tonight I can’t make out much... well except for those eyes. They’re just staring, those glowing white eyes... burning through the fog.

Day 19

Well its official... I’m out of food. I now kind of regret not falling for Pinkie’s trap and taking those cookies she was throwing on the ground then again it was obviously a trap, sooo. Anyways I still have plenty of water so at least I have that right. I’m gonna go run out and see if I can find any food.

No such luck, I went outside and realized the problem with living in a desert is... well the lack of vegetation. I went to the plains and found a few flowers, which is about it (and as we found out when we first got here, the flowers are not for eating they taste awful and don’t satisfy hunger).

There really isn’t much going on besides my lack of food

It’s back the same thing... those eyes, the fog is back too. It looks like it's getting closer I can make out the figure’s outline just barely.

Day 26

This morning I broke down, I can’t take it I need to eat, these flowers won’t cut and I’m definitely not going back to the old home. I grabbed the broken tools from AJ’s hut and repaired them the best I could and... and I did what I had to do Celestia forgive me. I mean I’m not doing anything wrong; they technically are already dead... I wonder if eating zompony flesh will turn me into one.

It is night right now and it’s back... no He’s back, he’s been coming back every night and with him the fog comes thick as before.

I can see him now, so simple... he’s a pony not much older than I. An earth pony with a teal coat, short brown mane and tail... and those eyes, burning white, I can’t close my own eyes without seeing his.

I wanted to go outside and ask him for help, but there’s something about him. He just stands there not blinking, and the other monsters ignore him as if he’s not really there. If the monsters are ignoring him then he must be bad news.

I’ve never felt so depressed in my life other than now. I’ve been having painful headaches ever since I got to this new home in the desert... I think its him.

Day 27

This entry happened after the 26th day, but do to the events that took place, I am unsure of the current date I will assume it all takes place on the 27th to keep things chronological.

Tonight I decided to take action. I went outside to try and scare him off. I grabbed the heavily damaged pickaxe and stepped out into the dark foggy world. His eyes were the only things to let me know he was there; he hadn’t moved and still stood in the same place as last night.

I remember beginning to charge... but I clumsily tripped and I fell into the water. When I got out he was right in front of me not moving, just staring. I remember swinging my pickaxe at him; he didn’t budge, even though it stabbed him in the neck.

His head turned to face me and then he opened his mouth (I saw nothing but an endless white tunnel and heard the sound of screams of pain and fear) I remember my head pounding next; burning like somepony had lit me ablaze. The next thing I recall is everything growing dark I think I fainted. When I came to it was still dark out, but the fog had cleared although my head still pounded.

I remember what the screams were saying, they were screaming his name.

I’m running out of ink so I don’t think I have many entries left.

Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, Rarity... anypony if you find this journal then I am most likely long gone.

I don't know what day it is, though through this brief moment of sanity I can see so clearly now. The knocking has silenced, but I know he’s there.

This land is cursed, a living nightmare, this is his kingdom. Over the course of about a month it destroyed and tore us apart.

If you're still alive please leave don't try to find me, just find a way out of this land. If you don’t he will most certainly come for you next.

We've overcome so many challenges together; we stop Nightmare Moon, defeated Discord, but this... he is so much more... this is a challenge you will have to overcome without me.

I know everypony has gone a little insane even i for a moment, but don't let your hope fade nor your friendship and together if you regain your sanity as well, you just may be able to escape.


With all the love I have left, Twilight Sparkle

Epilogue - Her final moments

Epilogue



Twilight stared at the door not blinking and on an occasion making the slightest eye twitches. She could see through the window the heavy rain and lightning cutting through the thick fog.

“Must not blink Twilight, must not blink, hehehe.” She said as she shifted on her bed.

“He’ll get you then... he’s waiting for you to drop your guard, when you...” she was interrupted by the sound of her stomach growling. “Oops looks like somepony forgot to eat.”

Twilight stood up cautiously and walked to her chest not taking her eyes off the door and keeping her ear on the sound of trudging water. She began to shift through its contents and popping a chunk of rotten flesh into her mouth.

“Water... come on where, uh oh looks like I’m out of water, that’s not good... I know how to fix that!” twilight pulled an axe out of the chest and began to chop at one of the floor boards.

Water quickly filled the hole and Twilight began to drink the swamp water, laughing as she did so.

“What’s that Spike, you want some... SHUT UP don’t you understand, its necessary for survival.” She spoke to a block of dirt. “Do you know what else is necessary for survival Spike?” her eye twitched as she picked up the axe. “FOOD!” Twilight lunged at the block of dirt and viciously hacked at it, but stopped shortly after.

“What’s that?” silence filled the air; the trudging of water was gone and Twilight’s eyes grew wide. “No!”

Herobrine appeared before the window then disappeared; the sound of banging quickly filled the air and Twilight jump into action. “You can’t have me!” she yelled as she placed several wooden blocks in front of the door, she placed another block on the window and backed into a corner.

“I'M NOT SCARED OF YOU!” she screamed as she placed her hooves over her head. “I’m not scared of you” she began to sob.

The sound of banging stopped and Twilight looked up. “HA, can’t get in can you... what’s the matter a couple of blocks stopping you,” she mocked pleased with her barricade.

Her pleasure was quickly changed to dread as one by one the wooden block barricade lit on fire.

“No... no, that’s not fair. That’s not fair!” she grabbed her broken off horn and rubbed it against her head’s wound. Blood began to pool where her horn use to reside. She began to write on the wall trying to see through her tears and blood.

CELESTIA HELP ME I'M SCAR___

The last of the wooden blocks burnt up and the door slammed open, there was a flash of lightning and crack of thunder as Herobrine stepped inside the shack.

“No, you... you s..stay away from me!” Twilight dropped her horn and dove for her water hole and begun digging.

Twilight broke through another block of sand and hit a pitch black block breaking one of her hooves. She broke the surrounding sand only to find the same block surrounded her on all sides. She looked up in horror at his blank soulless eyes.

“No, no please” she begged as she gasped for air through the water “NO, CELESTIA, HELP!”

“Tia, its okay we’ll find her.” Princess Luna said, trying to comfort her sobbing sister.

“No we won’t she’s gone, can’t you see that... I should have been stricter on her... made her write letters each week, maybe then...” Princess Celestia was interrupted by one of the guards.

“Princess Celestia, Princess Luna I hate to interrupt, but the other guards are wondering if we should start packing up to head back to Equestria.”

“... No, we are staying in this land until we find Twilight and her friends” Princess Luna said sternly.

“But Princess... what about the royal duties?”

“The ponies can manage an extra night.” Luna paused and looked to her sister, “Celestia, tomorrow I would like for you to return to Equestria, I shall continue the search.”

“But...” Celestia began to argue but Luna cut her off.

“No buts. I may be younger, but even I know that the ponies need one of us there to bring the sun and the moon and I cannot yet raise the sun on my own... you must return.”

“Fine, good luck sister... and please be safe.” Celestia left the shack.

“I shall send a group to escort her back right away... what about the rest of us?” the guard questioned

Princess Luna stepped outside, “Set up camp, it’s going to be a long night...” She looked up to the sky, as she did a thick fog began to slowly roll in.
