Forgotten Magics

The RevealBy Lunarguard12

Star and his friends took the next day to see more of the town while they waited for night to come around to meet Luna at Twilight's home. 'I hope Twilight won't be too angry with me dropping in on her meeting with Luna.'

"What are you thinking about Star?" Berry asks the blue earth pony trotting up next to Star.

"Just about later tonight where we have to meet Luna. I'm hoping that Twilight won't be mad at me for bringing you guys with me to her place."

"Why should you care Luna told you to come." Rig stated

"But since I met her she seemed nice enough. Also she's really well versed in magic too." Star said 'Not to mention she's not hard on the eyes either' he thought to himself.

"Well we have time till later so what should we do?" asked Berry

"I don't know this place isn't exactly huge on tourist coming in."

"Whatever I just want time to fly by a little faster." Rig said and immediately after a clock flew into his face hitting him in the head. "What the fuck who threw that?" Rig said looking around. Shortly Pinkie came running from the direction the clock came from asking the group "Did you see a clock fly through here?" Star and Berry both pointed at the clock somehow unbroken on the ground. Upon inspection Star could see wings moving on the side of it.

"Ah ha there it is." Pinkie said putting it in her bags. "Now to get this back to where it belongs." and with that Pinkie bounced away going down a random street.

"What the fuck just happened?"

"I have no idea but no one threw a clock at you there were wings on that clock."

Storm chuckled to himself "What's so funny Storm." Rig snapped.

"You got your wish."

"What?" Rig asked confused

"Time flew." Storm chuckled a little more "Right into your face that is." Berry and Star laughed along with Storm as Rig simmered in his anger.

The day pasted uneventfully for the group of friends and the time for Luna's meeting was approaching fast. But while they were enjoying their day a certain purple unicorn was once again panicking. "Oh no oh no the library needs to be spotless  for Luna." Twilight said as she ran around the library finalizing for the arrival of Luna.

"Twilight you have been doing that for the last half hour and Luna will be here in five minutes I don't think the library can be destroyed in five minutes so you can stop." Spike said trying to get Twilight to calm down.

Twilight stopped dusting a shelf that had no dust on it since that morning "Your right spike I guess it's just my way of dealing with stress."

"But why would you be stressed. You know Luna likes talking to you and this isn't the first time she's come to meet you."

"I don't know. Her being one of the princesses is the cause of the stress I guess and I just don't want to leave a bad impression on either of them."

"You could never leave a bad impression with me or my sister." A calm smooth voice said from behind Twilight. Twilight turned around to see Luna standing in her home. Twilight went into a bow so fast she hit her horn on the ground and Luna gave hearty laugh "Oh Twilight even after I've told you time and again that you don't need to stand on formalities when it is only you me and Spike." at the mention of the dragons name he waved his arms at Luna. "Oh sorry Spike." Luna's horn glowed for a moment and then motioned for Spike to speak.

"Did you have to use a silence spell on me?" Spike asked

"Sorry but I could tell that you were about to say my name and I so love surprising Twilight." Luna said smiling. Twilight picked herself back up and rubbed her aching horn. "Princess Luna can I ask you never do that again." Twilight asked

"You can ask but it doesn't mean I'll stop." Luna replied still smiling.

Twilight just sighed knowing Luna liked to pull pranks and such on her guards and her own sister sometimes too and she would likely get her again too. Twilight put a sincere smile on and looked at Luna and asked "So what brings you to Ponyville?"

"Oh I just wanted to talk to you I enjoy it. But today I did ask someone to stop by sometime." Twilight blinked a few times before asking "Who did you invite?"

*knock* *knock* *knock*

"That's probably them. Spike could you get the door?" Luna asked

"Sure." the purple dragon said as he went to the front door. Spike opened the door to see a pair of orange eyes like fire staring back. Spike took a step back to get a better look at what was at the door and found it to be a large pony only slightly shorter than him "Can I help you?" Spike asked

"We were invited." The large pony said.

"By who?"

"That would be me." Luna said coming to the door. "Storm it's good to see you again."

"Good evening Luna the night is beautiful as always." Storm said as he entered.

"Why thank you Storm."

"Hi Luna." Berry said coming into the library and giving Luna a hug. Twilight could not believe what she was seeing, a pony just coming up and hugging the princess it was unthinkable. "Berry it's wonderful to see you again." Luna said giggling.

Another pony came in and Twilight thought his coat was black but upon closer inspection she noticed it was a extremely dark blue and not black. This one didn't even acknowledge Luna and sat on a nearby couch his strange white eyes looking around the room stopping on Twilight "You gonna stare at me all night?" he asked sharply. Twilight quickly averted her gaze.

"Rig no need to be rude this is Twilight's home and she does have the right to throw you out." Luna said.

"Not like anypony has the balls to do that around here." Rig said back. Once again Twilight couldn't believe what just happened, a pony just spoke back to a princess.

"Rig just because they don't doesn't mean I won't." Twilight knew that voice. She heard it only two days ago. Twilight looked to the door way and saw "Star what are you doing here?" Twilight asked.

"I'm here by invitation of princess Luna." Star stated

"Ah Starburst it's good to finally see you again." Luna said

"I have what you wanted right here Princess." Star said as he opened his personal void and pulled out the jade orb he retrieved several days ago. "You wouldn't believe what I had to do to get that one."

"Wait a second." Twilight said confused "You know Princess Luna?" she asked Star

"I would hope so she taught me much of what I know about unicorn magic."

"Oh come now Starburst you know all I did was guide you in the right direction." Luna said. Luna looked over star again and asked "Why do you have an vanity spell over you?"

"Oh right. I put it there so I didn't scare anypony when I came into town."

"Well you can take it off now."

"Are you sure? Twilight hasn't seen me without it yet." Star asked

"I wouldn't do that yet." Storm said

"And why not?" Luna asked

"We are being watched." and looked over to one of the windows on the upper level.

Twilight went over to the window and opened it and looked out and immediately found Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie on the branches outside the window "Raaainbow, Piiinkie what are you two doing in my tree?"

"Can we come in first? It's kinda uncomfortable on these branches." Rainbow asked. After Twilight helped the two in  Rainbow started to explain "Well two days ago I met Firestorm over there" motioning towards the large black pegasus "And challenged him to a race and lost. I wanted a rematch the next day but couldn't find him and then about fifteen minutes ago I was flying and I saw him but I wanted to know a little more about him before I challenged him. So I followed him and they all stopped here so I went to that window to see what was going on. then Pinkie showed up." Twilight looked to Pinkie "That explains Rainbow but what were you doing Pinkie?"

"Oh my Pinkie sense told me to be here."

*Knock* *Knock* *Knock*

"That would be Mina."

Twilight went to the door and opened it to find, like Pinkie said, her sister at the door "Pinkamina what are you here for?"

"Sis told me to come here around this time. Something about her Pinkie sense again." Pinkamina looked inside to find it full of ponies and one Princess Luna all looking at her. "I'm guessing she had me come at a bad time."

Luna was the one who spoke up "This wasn't anything important, so no you're not interrupting anything."

Twilight sighed and invited Pinkamina in. after getting everypony in and settled she looked at Star and asked "What sort of vanity spell is on you?" Star sighed guessing she would have found out some time.

"The vanity spell is to cover up tattoos and a eye so ponies don't see how they really look."

"That doesn't seem so bad."

"Well the tattoos are around my horn, around one eye, across my withers, and down my front legs. My eye on the other hoof is slightly disturbing."

"Oh."

Luna came over and looked at Twilight "You know I have read your friendship reports and wasn't one of them don't judge a book by it's cover?"

"Yes there was and I wouldn't mind seeing Star as he really is."

Star smiled "That's great I can finally drop the concentration to hold it up." and closed his eyes. After that he let go of the spell holding the vanity spell dispelling it and revealing the tattoos along his body. opening his eyes he looked at Twilight who had a look of shock on her face.

"Yeah most ponies think I look like a freak." Star said his head drooping

"Those tattoos are runes of expulsion right?" Twilight asked

Star looked back at her and noticed she wasn't shying away but rather taking a closer look at his tattoos. "Yeah they are. I do a lot with rouge magics for Luna and also some of what I look into for magic can invade my body so I got the tattoos to prevent that. They don't stop physical harm though like burns and cuts though." Twilight looked up at Star and saw his eyes. Twilight took in his left eye which to her looked like a sapphire then she saw his right eye the golden one surrounded by the tattoos seemed to look into her she saw it was like a reptiles with the pupil a vertical slit.

"Wow you're the first one who was able to look into my right eye without flinching."

"I'm guessing it was from an accident."

"How did you know?" Star asked surprised

"Luna's guards have those eyes and I asked her about them one time she came over and she said it was a spell of her's to help them intimidate ponies." Star nodded.

A silence fell over the two and Twilight looked around the room to see how they were doing. Pinkamina was lounging on he steps away Twilight assumed to be away from everypony but Luna seemed to want to talk to her. Pinkie and Berry were talking so fast Twilight only caught a few words of what they were saying something about cake Pinkie must have started the conversation. Rainbow Dash was talking with the large pegasus, named Storm she thought, or rather she was talking and he was listening. The one named Rig was still on the couch, Twilight thought he could see him sneaking glances at Pinkamina. While Twilight was looking around the room Star was having a conversation with Luna using a little mental magic so Twilight couldn't hear.

You know Twilight is actually really nice and polite. Star thought to Luna

Star you do know I can see you like her. Luna replied back.

I thought you said you wouldn't look into my head?

One doesn't have to look in your head to see you like her.

It would be nice if she could come with us on our adventures she is really good at magic and wonderful company too.

So why don't you invite her. Star looked across the room to Luna and gave her a flat look.

You know I can't do that.

Why not? Luna asked back chuckling on the other side of the room.

Mainly because it is dangerous.

When was the last time you had problems?

How about the last errand I did for you.

Ok how about the last time you had a problem that you didn't have to cause?

Star was quiet for a moment I see your point but how could I ask?

Here let me help you with that. Luna excused herself from talking to Pinkamina.

Luna please no. Luna moved towards Star and Twilight's position Luna I'm begging you don't! She continued her advance PLEASE LUNA NO!!!

"Excuse me Twilight." Twilight looked to Luna "Yes Princess?"

"Have you ever wanted to see more of Equestria?"

Twilight's face lit up "Oh yes one thing I've always to see was the magic museum in Baltimare. I heard they got a new summoning magic exhibit there."

"Why haven't you gone yet then?" Luna asked

"Well I would like to go but Princess Celestia said I shouldn't without an escort."

"What if I could supply an escort." Luna asked taking a quick look at Star who was fully aware of what Luna was about to do.

"That would be wonderful."

"Give me a moment then." Luna said closing her eyes and her horn giving off a azure glow. Shortly after she opened her eyes again "Celestia approves of my idea."

"So who's my escort?" Twilight asked almost bouncing in place.

"You're sitting next to him." Luna said smiling, looking to Star

Twilight froze then looked to her left and saw Star smiling sheepishly. Twilight looked back to Luna who was still smiling. Twilight finally comprehended what Luna said then smiled and said "That would be wonderful. It is definitely better than having a guard who probably wouldn't even talk to me." Star released the breath he didn't realize he was holding and looked to Luna with and evil stare while Twilight wasn't looking and sent one telepathic message to Luna.

You're EVIL!

Luna just smiled wider at the comment. Twilight looked over to her friends and gave a sad little smile "I wish they could come too." Luna seeing another chance to cause some trouble for her student immediately responded "Why don't you ask them if they want to? There are four of you and four of them so there shouldn't be a problem." Twilight looked to the Princess then said "I don't know if they could." Luna Stood up then addressed Twilight's friends "Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, and Pinkamina who among you would like to go with these stallions to Baltimare as your escorts?"

Pinkie was the first to respond "YAY ROAD TRIP!"

"Ugh, if I don't go now Pinkie is likely to hurt herself or, more likely, the others." Pinkamina said

"I would have to have somepony cover for me but I could use a vacation." was Rainbow Dash's response

"Well Twilight it seems you will be having a few of your friends along with you after all."

"Thank you Princess thank you."

Star went over to storm and said "Well it seems we have some mares to escort now."

"It does seem that way-" storm replied "-For better or worse we won't know till it happens."

"I sure as hell hope it's for better." Star said as he watched Twilight as she was already getting ready to depart.
