//-------------------------------------------------------// Chronicles of Blademaster: The Adventures of Jade Mask and Sweetie Belle -by jademask- //-------------------------------------------------------// //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter One //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter One Jade Mask was on the train to Ponyville and he was looking out the window. “I wonder what Sonya going make me do?” He murmured under his breath. Somepony walks back to his seat. She had a cowboy hat, blonde mane and tail and three apples on her flanks. “Howdy there sugarcube, my name is Applejack.” she said. “Hi, my name is Jade Mask.” he said. “I’m going back to Ponyville, you?” she asked. “My boss who lives in Ponyville ask me to come to do something.” he replied. “Do you know what it is?” she asked. “No she never tells me what she wants me to do.” he answered. “What are you to Sonya?” She shoots off another question. “I’m her spy.” He replied to this one. Applejack was shocked at the answer. “You’re a spy?” “Yes, I collect information for her mostly” he said and continues “She is a good boss. What do you do?” he asked and Applejack replied. “I’m an apple farmer.” She smiles. “That is a nice job, I would like to have a farm when I retire from being a spy.” Jade comments. “How about working on Sweet Apple Acres?” She asks. Jade thinks a little and replied “It will help understand how to run a farm.” The see that Ponyville was coming in to view, they both smiled and grabbed their bags as the train pulls up to the station. They got off and said their good byes and Jade started to where his boss lives. Meanwhile at Rarity’s place, Rarity and Sweetie Belle where talking about Sweetie spending time with the other Cutie Mark Crusaders but Rarity was starting to get worried about what they do. “Sweetie, you and your friends shouldn't keep heading into the Everfree forest. You come home covered in mud and nasty rotten leaves.” Rarity chastised as Sweetie Belle walked in. “It's only stuff from trees.” Sweetie replied, wiping herself on what looked like a towel hanging on the door handle. Rarity was bustling around the shop, looking for something. She turns and sees the square of fabric in Sweetie's hooves. “Ah. Thank-you, just put it with the rest for now.” Rarity says, gesturing towards a half-finished project. Sweetie sheepishly places the fabric by the project, trying to fold it so the mud smears cannot be seen. “Besides I worry about you going into that forest by yourselves.” “You could come along!” Sweetie suggests excitedly. Rarity looks shocked. “Absolutely not, the rain has made it terribly muddy. Now be a dear and go take a bath, you are treading dirt all over the shop.” Rarity ordered. Sweetie looks at her hooves and heads to the bathroom. After her bath Sweetie Belle follows Rarity around the shop, fetching out pieces of fabric for her sister. “Sweetie darling, could you go fetch the silver thread? This grey thread simply will not do. Oh, and while you are at it there is a box of gemstone buttons that will complement the neckline perfectly.” Sweetie clambers up a precarious pile of discarded fabric to reach the self with the buttons and thread. As she grabs it the pile wobbles, but she hops down quickly and hands the materials to her sister. She sits and watches her sister work, then starts following her around again. Rarity walks back into her and stumbles, tearing a seam on the dress. “Sweetie Belle!” Rarity scolds. “How many times do I have to tell you not to get under my hooves while I'm adjusting the spread?” “Sorry sis. I'll sit back here.” Sweetie replies, looking hurt. Rarity softens up a little bit. “It's fine, nothing a new stitch can't mend.” She laughs. There is a knock on the door, short and sharp. “Why don't you check who it is while I fix this.” Rarity suggests to Sweetie, who heads to the door. “Hello there.” Sweetie Belle says as she opens the door. “Am I correct in believing this to be the shop of Rarity?” The mare at the door asks. She is dressed in a light dress that is unideal for the current weather, and a summer hat that had become the fashion in Canterlot obscured the top half of her face. “Yep, my sister is just through there. She's a little busy at the moment though.” Sweetie stated, waving a hoof. “Well could you hand her this then, and tell her that it has to be ready by the end of the week, I have an outdoor party to attend to. Some social gathering hosted by an entrepreneur. It wouldn't do to miss it and the clothes I have on at the moment are hardly ideal for the weather, wouldn't you agree?” “They'd get all muddy. I'll hand this to Rarity, bye.” “Delightful. Well I have other affairs to attend to, farewell.” The mare waved and headed to a waiting carriage. Sweetie closed the door and returned to her sister. “Well Sweetie, who was it.” Rarity asks from behind the nearly finished dress, she had finished mending the torn seem and was sewing on the buttons. “A customer. She didn't say her name, just asked me to hand this to you.” “Really?” Rarity stops her sewing and walks over. She opens the note and reads the contents. “Oh my, when would she like this finished by?” “By the end of the week, she said she had some fancy party to go to.” “This can wait then.” Rarity says in flustered tones, pointing to the nearly finished dress. “I'll need to make a few practice dresses, what are they thinking with this request? Still the customer now best.” She gives an exasperated smile and begins rushing about after materials. “Can I help?” Sweetie Bell asks eagerly. Rarity looks at the seem that had been ripped and thinks about it. “Why don't you run along and see your friends, I've got to draw a design up. Honestly I'm not sure how long it will take, you could be sitting there watching for hours.” Rarity answers, emphasizing the hours. Not wanting to spend her time ding nothing Sweetie Belle heads out of the shop to go find Applebloom and Scootaloo. She started to looking for her friends but she see Jade Mask walking to the Everfree Forest. She walks to him in hopes that he lead her to her Friends and walked next to him and says happly "Hi mister" and Jade Looks at here and says "Hi" "My name is Sweetie Belle and you are?" Jade smiles and replies "My name is Jade Mask, Sweetie Belle. "What are you doing, Sweetie Belle? Jade asked inquring "I'm looking for my friends Applebloom and Scootaloo" she repied happily. "Why are you looking for them?" he ask wanted to know more about her. "We are part of a group called Cutie Mark Crusaders" she said proudly and add "and we not going to stop untill we going to get our Cutie Marks" Jade smiles a little. "Where are you going?" she asked wondering where he going. "I'm going to where to my boss Sonya Blademaster lives," he reply. "I know her, she help us with some of our plans and even thinks of some plans for us." she said even more happily. "She does like to help others even when she doesn't need to help them," he said with giggle at the end. "So she helps everypony," she said and looks at Jade. "Will she have to like you to help you more then once. Then another pony came up to them and stop them. "Hi you two," she said. "Hi Moncia," both of them said in chourse. "You two are going to our house to meet Sonya, right?" she asked. And Jade replied "Yes, she said I need to look at something." Then Sweetie said "I'm looking for my friends." Moncia smiles and says "I think they are past our house." Then she runs past them. "What was that about?" Sweetie ask and look like Jade didn't know either. They start to see Sonya's house come in to view. It was a dragon and it was huge, the hugest dragon you ever seen but it was dead. "I'm still scared when I see that house," Sweetie said and Jade add "That is can be understood." They got closer and closer but when they got close to the house it was like the ground came out from under them and they fell and everything when black for sometime before they landed. They look at each other and they see that each other is ok before they look around and they see that the dragon house was gone and both where shocked. Sweetie was about to panic when Jade calm her down before she started. "We got transported to another world," he said calmly to not panic her. "What are we going to do now?" she inquired. "We need to find a spot where there is a hole in this world, It might lead back and it might not but I can learn a spell that will take us back." "Why don't we look for Sonya." She said but Jade frowned. "She and her sister are the only ones in the multiverses." Sweetie frowns too. "I think that my sister might know part of the spell, but I don't know if she is here." Jade said. "Where does she live?" Sweetie asked, wondering. "She lives with me in Canterlot." he said. "What happen if we meet our other selves?" she asked. "Travelling the multiverse like this nothing will happen," he said and added "The first thing is to go to my sister in Canterlot to see if she know the spell." Sweetie thinks "Will there be other difference between the worlds?" and Jade says "Yes sometimes it is small other times it will be big and sometimes we can be in the past or the future."
