When six ponies are stranded on a deserted island, Celestia only knows what will happen.

In a Lord of the Flies-esque story, 6 friends are stranded on an Island and a rift soon forms between them, seperating them into two warring groups. All OC Character's are based on me and my friends, so it's also sort of a role-play but scitpted for your enjoyment.

Big thanks to: Emma Ridsdale, Mitchel Snow, Katie Myers, Austin Dotey, and Tyler Whatever-your-last-name-is for inspiring your characters and helping me develop, well, yourselves.

Also, extra thanks to Austin for "helping" me write this story (by which I mean being a complete idiot and drawing "storyboards" while I did any actual work).

Stupid Arguements and Invitations

Lord of the Parasprites

Stupid Arguements and Invitations

"No."

"What do you mean 'no'?"

"It's stupid, It'll never happen."

"That's just what they want you to think!"

Edelweiss facehoofed. He had been trying for almost an hour to try and reason with his friend, Ivory, and tell him why the half-baked idea he had come up with that day was just as stupid, if not more, than the ones he had created in the past. Edelweisse was a white-coated pegasus with dark chocolate hooves and a darkish blonde mane that slightly shone from his Crystal heritage, and a flower of his same name rested upon his flank. He had no tolerence for Ivory's incompetence. He looked at his friend with a mix of annoyance and unamusement.

"And who's 'they?'" he asked

"EXACTLY!!!" Ivory shouted.

Ivory Keys was a purple unicorn with slick black mane and golden eyes. He wore white suit-cuffs on his hooves. His cutie mark was a set of white and black piano keys.

They white pegasus once again facehoofed "It's simply not possible, you always come up with the stupidist Ideas that can never happen, what makes this one different?"

"Becausd it will WORK!" Proclaimed Ivory.

"Alright, Alright. Explain to me again what we're going to do," Edelweisse calmly tried to reason.

Ivory began, "We shall talk to trees-"

"Stop." The blonde pony immediatly interrupted "Impossible"

"No.It's.NOT" Was his purple friends retort

"Hey, what are you guys talking about?" Inquired a third voice.

The two arguing colts turned to see their friend Saeng-Gang* enter. He was a pegasus, like Edelweiss, though his coat was significantly whiter than his. His amber hair was set around his freckled muzzle. His mark was a computer monitor.

"Drawing kittens," answered Ivory suspiciously darting his eyes from left to right.

Edelweiss rolled eyes "Ivory's saying we should talk to trees"

"You're not supposed to tell them!!" Ivory shouted at the blonde-maned pony.

"Oh, well we could build an eauestrian-to-tree translating robot," suggested Saeng

"Great! All we need is some cups and string," said Ivory

"Wait, what?!" Edelweiss immediately looked over at Saeng, "You actually agree with him?"

"Yeah, why not? It'd be cool."

"No, It'd be IMPOSSIBLE" Edelweiss shouted, obviously angered.

"I think it could work," retorted a voice, this time a female.

"Oh? and why's tha-," Edelweiss turned around to continue arguing his point, but abruptly stopped when he saw no one there. Then his eyes opened wide with fear when he realized the voice that had just called out. Franticly, he jerked his head around to find the voice's source.

A giggle came in response to the pegasus's actions, "I'm up here" said the voice.

Edelweiss slowly tilted his head upward. A pair of bright purple eyes peered down on him from a tree branch above them. The first thought that entered his head was How did an earth pony get up in a tree?. This was quickly followed by DEAR CADENCE, WE'RE ALL GOING TO DIE!!!

"Hey, Venitl" greeted Saeng.

"Hey guys" The brownish-grey earth pony mare said as she landed on the ground with un-equine grace. Her blue headband and silver hair not even shifting a millimeter. A sunflower cutie mark was printed on her flank.  She smiled at the colts showing rows of teeth filed to pointed fangs. This was Ventil' Podsolnechnik**. Edelweiss looked at her for a few seconds then relaxed when she hadn't killed them yet.

"So like I said, I think it's possible" the mare continued the earlier conversation.

"Yeah we just have to build a super-awesome-translater-robot-awsome-machine," supported Saeng

"Yes, we will achieve our goal," Ivory proclaimed triumphantly.

"Doesn't anyone here understand common logic?"

"Hello everypony, what are you all up to?" asked a fith voice.

"Oh, Maple! Thank Cadence you're here!" Edelweiss greeted his friend, Maple Leaf, a syrup-brown unicorn. Her red and white hair hung down to her shoulders in two sperate tails held to gether by red bows. Her kind, blue eyes gazed upon her friends who had aparently organized a massive congregation in the streets of Vanhoover. She walked up and stood next to Ventil' (how she could do that was a mystery to the others).

"Why? What's going on?" asked Maple, concerned something had happened.

Edelweiss waved his hoof at the other three ponies, "These guys seem to think that It's possible to talk to trees."

"Um. Well, no, that wouldn't be possibl-"

"THANK YOU~" The blonde pegasus sang angrily(If that's possible).

"But I still think it would be pretty cool if it WAS possible" Maple finsihed.

"See she's on OUR side," proclaimed Ventil', grabbing Maple's hoof and pulling her closer to the tree-talkers.

"No, she said it WASN'T possible!" shouted Edelweiss.

"She said it'd be cool if it was-" protested Ivory

"Which it ISN'T!" shouted Edelweiss grabbing Maple's other forehoof.

"Uh, guys...?" said Maple. The others ignored her and continued bickering.

"She will help with our robot!" shouted Saeng-Gang

"She'll listen to reason!" shouted Edelweiss.

"Guys...?" Maple tried to talk to the others, but no one listened.

A red stallion walked down the streets of Vanhoover. His golden, almond eyes scanned the roadside for his friends. He figured that one of them, probably the purple one, would be hanging around the streets for no legitimate reason whatsoever. He had just been given huge news and couldn't wait to tell the others. Despite the amount of excitement, he was still simply walking, no need to rush. He stopped and laughed to himself, then continued walking.

I still can't believe I won! I don't even know what compelled me to enter, and I WON! This is amazing! I think we could all use a good vacation, especially him.

Turning a corner he saw what looked to be a congregation of not one, but all five of his friends standing in the street. Upon seeing this he went from his slow trot to now a full gallop, his spiky black mane and Chinese-braided tail flowing behind him.

"Hey, guys! You'll never guess what I jus-"

He stopped as he fully took in the sight before him. It appeared as if Edelweiss was engaged in some sort of tug-o-war with the rest of his friends, using Maple as a rope.

"She's on my side!" shouted Edelweiss.

"No she's on our side!" shouted the others.

"Can we stop this yet?" Maple asked nopony in particular.

"Hmph, hmaha, HAHAHA!" Five Star couldn't hold it in anymore, this was too much!

"HAHAHA, I new this was coming eventually!"

Edelweiss looked at the others and suddenly realized how ridiculous the situation must look. Flustered, he dropped Maple's forhoove and stared back at the laughing red stallion.

"And what exactly do you mean by that?" Edelweiss asked angrily

"Nothing, nothing it's not important," said Five Star still snickering to himself, "So anyway, you're not gonna believe this!"

"Hm? What? What is it?" asked Ventil', intrigued as to what would have the black-mained colt so worked up.

"Okay so, you know how they had those raffles at the Summer Sun Festival? Well guess who won the Grand Prize?" Five Star smiled triumphantly, as if it wasn't sheer luck that had granted him victory.

"Oh, cool, so what is it?" asked Saeng-Gang.

"It's a free trip on a Luxury Cruis! Enough spaces for all of us!"

"Wow! Awesome!" said Saeng

"Oh, I'm in!" Maple shouted enthusiasticly.

"Me too!" joined Ventil'.

"Obviously, I'll be going," chimed Ivory.

"Uhhhhkg. I don't want to go." Complained Edelweiss.

"Oh, come on, Edel. Come join us," encouraged Maple.

"NO." Edelweiss stated firmly

Saeng-Gang tapped Edelweiss' shoulder, a smirk on his face, "Hey, buddy?"

"What is it?" asked the blonde pony.

Saeng put his hoof up to Edel's ear and wispered something. As he finished, the other pegasus's eyes widened before his face imediatly became angry and he forcefully pushed Saeng away and shouted "Shut up!". Edelweiss moved his eyes away from his friends. "Fine, I'm going," Edelweiss stated, almost straining to remain reluctant.

"Well, we don't actually set sail till this evening, so everypony can still do whatever they had planned. Just don't forget to pack. Everypony meet at the west docks at 7."

"Awesome! I gotta pack my laptop!"

"Hm, I wonder what I should bring..."

"This will give me plenty of time to write my new story."

"Fine, I'll just get my P-Pad, might need a waterproof case."

"I'll bring a malite and a shainsaw and cats and all sorts of Awesomeness"

"O...kay I guess I'll see you guys later." Said a now alone Five Star.

They could have said 'good-bye' or something.
