The Students Part 2

The train ride to Baltimare was only 5 hours in and it was easy to tell that one of the passengers was not happy with the long ride.

“I’m soooo broad is their any thing to do on this train?” This passenger was one of the top sky-bond flyers in all of Equestria and one of the Elements of Harmony this rainbow haired girl was walking pacing on the train with nothing to do while all of her other friends was busy with their own things to do.

Applejack and Pinkie Pie was playing a game of tic tac toe, Rarity was drawing some new designs for her new fashion line, FlutterShy was asleep, Twilight ,like the egg-head she is, was nose deep in a book most likely all about the Oceno Islands no doubt, and even Luna had something to do as she was playing with her hand gamestation, and hear Rainbow Dash without hers.

“Rainbow, why didn’t you make sure you had everything before we left Ponyville?” Twilight asked without looking from her book.

“Because I had to check in with the weather team before we left and I guess in the rush I forgot to pack some of my stuff.” Rainbow said.

“Don't worry Dashie as soon as me and AJ are done playing our game you can join in. Or I got a idea why we play a three-way  tic tac toe!” Pinkie said with the energy to power all of Ponyville for a whole month.

“Hmmm....yeah there's a few thing wrong with you plan Pinks. One, you can only play tic tac toe with two people. Two, the last time I tried play with you in that game you beat me every time remember?” Rainbow Dash said as she shivered a little a the memory .

“Yeah well, I ain't giving up until I beat you Pinkie Pie there's no way humanly possible that you can beat me every time.” AJ jump in still think about her next move.

“Humph.... good luck with that AJ you're going to need it .”

“I don’t need your luck cause I got this in the bag.” Applejack said a she came up with the best plan in all of Equestria. “ Your move Pinkie .”

Pinkie Pie just looked at the game board and in one movement she said “Tic tac toe three in a row. I win!” Applejack looked down and saw her mistake Pinkie had Applejack two ways and she only block one way.

“Ummm...best sixteen out of thirty?”

And so this continued for the next  3 or so hours.

All of the girls have fallen asleep all of them except one the one that still was up was the one that raised the moon every night princess Luna. Who could she sleep her mind was still trying to understand why her sister acted like that when she said she didn’t remember. It’s not like her sister to hide things from her and the only reason she did not push on the matter any further was she was sure that she will get her answers at the place where she is to find her new students speaking of which she was wandering about her new student what would they look like, act, speak, and how was she going to train them. She hated working with so little information but she must be patient she will have her answers very soon at the Oceno Islands.

The Next morning and the Baltimare Train Station

As Celestia’s sun shone high in the sky early in the morning the Elements of Harmony and the lunar goddess got their stuff of the train and lucky Twilight’s spell on Rarity’s bags didn’t not wear off during the train....that would have been a morning wake up call. As the rest of the girls unloaded their stuff of the train Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, and Applejack, who was the first ones to unloaded off of the train, was taking in the incrediable view of the sea-port city.

The view was something that they never seen before in their lives'. The big wide city, the many people move about the city much more than Ponyville’s population. The high tall buildings the many shops and eateries that was busy with work and the many people coming and going. further down Pinkie pie saw a ice cream shop, Rainbow Dash the Baltimare  Stadium where the Wonderbolts performed their famous High-Sea show. AJ wasn’t looking at city her eyes was fixed on the vast ocean that shined a beautiful sky blue. As the other girls finish unloading their bags everyone caught onto what Applejack was staring at and everyone could not believe their eyes. Even Luna who in her long life have seen the ocean many of a time before was in a state of awe. Again everyone was reminded of the peace that is Equestria that until....

Rumble

Everyone’s eyes turned to the source of the noise only to see that it had come from none other than their pink haired friend Pinkie Pie. ”Whoopie look like I need to refill the tanks.”

All of the other girls couldn’t agree more so they went to the nearest food joint to get something to eat. And while the sun was up in Equestria it was night time on the Oceno Islands where we find three young adults one the age of twenty and the others the ages of nineteen just a few months off was walking down the street .

The Oceno capital

“So what do you think will happen?” one of the nineteen year olds asked with a female’s voice

“I don’t know he was wanted for a series of crimes so who knows what going to happen.”  The twenty year old said also with a female’s voice. “What you thinks going to happen?” She asked the other nineteen year old.

“To be honest...” The nineteen year old started this time it was a male’s voice. “it’s all up in the air... I mean the man was a trusted official for crying out loud, so I can’t say what will happen. But we have nothing to do with it any more so what happens is up to the feudal lord. I just wish I could be there to see the look on his face. “ The male nineteen year old finish.

“Yeah well whatever the feudal lord does to him he got what coming to him.” The female nineteen year old said. “I mean he nearly started a war that no one could win I still don’t understand why he would go through all that trouble just to start something that wouldn't work?” The female nineteen year old said. “What do you think, Star?”

Star or by those who don’t know her that well Hoshiko turned to one of her best friends and said “I think you’re right it does seem like a lot of work just for a small war with no winners in the end. I think he was after something more.  The question is what?”

The other two though on this too as Star did make a very good point why start a war when you don’t get anything in return?

As the three of them walk back to their homes the male nineteen year old stop dead in his tracks and had a dead look in his eyes as if he just heard the whispers of a ghost. He look around to find where the whisper came from but the only ones out was him and his friends. Just as he was going to stop looking he heard the voice again this time he did nothing as he tried to listen to the voice to him the voice sounded female but he could not tell for sure as he listen some more he could make out what the voice was saying

‘You must hurry time is running short it is up to you and friends to save this world from those who seek to destroy it...’ The voice was saying more but the teenager could not hear the rest a it faded out. He open his eyes only to see his friend’s faces in his

“Guah!!!” He jump back a few feet with a blush on his face as he was freak out of his mind.” Why are you standing in front of me staring at me like that?” He asked with his face still a little red.

“We was trying to  see if you were okay, you just stop walking and the next thing we know you eyes went all darkish. We try for like five minutes to get something out of you! You okay? This hasn’t happened since we was kids.” The female nineteen year old asked with a little bit of concern in her voice.

“Huh...y-yeah I’m fine.” The male of the three said as he look to the moon that was shining high in the night sky. ’It almost sounded like that voice was coming from the moon but that's impossible...right?’

The three friends started to walk home again not knowing the future that’s ahead of them.

Back on the Sea City of Baltimare

Our young heroes after having to watch Pinkie devour a meal that could feed a small family. “How in the wide wide world of Equestria did you eat all of that?” Twilight asked still in complete shock.

With one last might burp Pinkie look at Twilight and said “ What are you talking about Twi? I eat like this all the time.” Pinkie said as though it was the most common thing in the world.

All of the girls just looked at Pinkie still all in a state of complete shock. Trying to move the day along Luna got all of the girls attention with a slightly louder than needed ‘ahem’

“Now that's done with we all should get down to business” Luna open a letter that she received this morning,” Ahem, now we will be boarding the SeaHorse from there it will be three days trip before we get to the Oceno Islands. After that there should be a guide to being us to the dojo that we’ll be staying at while our ship is in port....”

“Whoa, whoa, princess you mean we’ll be staying at a real dojo like with ninja and stuff” Rainbow Dash said.

“Oh come on Rainbow Dash” AJ started. “now you should know that ninja and all that other stuff ya'll are in to ain’t real.”

Rainbow Dash shot Applejack a mean look and was about to say something when everyone’s favorite egg-head looked away for her book to dish out some knowledge on her friend Applejack.”Actua-”

“Actually Miss Jack, on the Oceno Islands there are specially train students in both magic and physical conditions to complete special missions that is giving by their ruler the Feudal Lord, if my memory serves me correct.” Luna filled in stealing Twilight’s thunder. “Also the Islands is home to many dragon-blood hybrids, and their magic is somewhat similar but not the same as ours. Oceno magic comes not only the person but the environment itself, however this makes their magic harder to control and master. So special schools have been build to help them to  control their magic. We will be staying at one of these schools during our stay.” Luna finish her lecture on Oceano's magic.

Right as Luna had step-in Twilight started to read the book with more fury than ever before, this going completely ignored by Luna as she went back to filling in the Elements of want they will be doing in the Oceno Islands . “Now, where was I....oh right our ship will be in port for four days, during these four days it will seem that Celestia would like that you six get to know the three that will be coming back with us. Also like I said we will be staying in a dojo there will be two to a room: Applejack you will be sleeping with Rarity, Rainbow Dash with Fluttershy, and Pinkie Pie with Twilight. Now, if there is no questions we should get ready to leave our ship should be arriving shortly.” And with that the girls was off to set sail to the Oceno Islands.

The SeaHorse was not the ship the Elements and Luna was expecting it look like a true blue pirate ship! Everything you can think that was on a pirate ship was there a wooden deck a long mass with a lookout post at the top, a black sail flag with a white skull and crossbone, and even a captain quarters speaking of which....

“Yo-ho-ho, mates it looks like our passengers have finally arrived.” A big tall man  in a large black captain’s jacket with a white dress shirt with dark skin, gary bread , and a pegleg said, more like yell, on the top of his lungs to his crew. “Look alive you land-loving dogs.” Just then men and women alike came from the lower decks hurried at the sound of their captain’s call and, then a figure jump down from the crow’s nest of the ship and landed on it’s feet with what appear to be no damage what so ever. A second look at the figure would review it to be a her. A girl with fire pink hair wearing an eye patch in a sleeveless blouse and baggy pants that had a few too many belts ,in Rarity’s anyway, mind holding what seem to be maps of some short.

“Ahoy captain, it seems a storm a ’brewing.” The girl said and Luna could tell from her voice that she couldn’t be any older than sixteen.

“Aye that it is little one that it is.” The captain of the ship said as he looked dead at the Lunar goddess. “So you be the ones me and my crew is to be taking to the Oceno Islands hm?”

Luna having to deal with the Royal Guard did not even finch to the tall and powerful looking man. “Yes, I’m princess Luna and these are the-”

“I be knowing who you are and why you are standing in front of mah ship , your majesty.” The captain interrupted. “Oh yes your sister is a very convincing women indeed and she know how to tell a good story.” The man said. “Well? What ye be waiting for come on aboard the SeaHorse!”

The girl who seems to be the first mate of the ship turned to the crew and started to give out orders.” All right you seadogs get this ship in the water and  load up the land lovers stuff aboard, and you two” she pointed at two not-so smart looking crew men “clean something damn it!”

“Y-yes ma'am!” The two said in a panic voices and started to find something to clean but was not looking where they was going and ran into each other. They looked up to see the first mate give them a look that would give Fluttershy's share a run for it’s money. Panicking once again the two got to their feet and started to mop and wash each other’s faces....

“Why we keep you two on board is a mystery to me .” The first mate said coolly

“Come here little one” The captain said. “Princess this here is my first mate Aiffliy” He introduced the girl. “ And I be captain Black Cloth it is nice to see some beautiful faces.” Captain Black said to the girls.

“It’s sure is nice to meet the Elements of Harmony and the Lunar Princess on the same day too.” Aiffliy said.

“Well let us not waste any more time we set sail to the Oceno Islands!” Black Cloth said to his crew as they all responded with a mighty “Aye! Aye!” And with that the Elements and the Lunar goddess set sail at last to a land  that they know next to nothing about with a pirate crew on a ship for three days.....what could go wrong?
