The Hunt for the Crystal Staff
Chapter 18: MY RETURN
Previous ChapterNext ChapterClyde had walked for 3 hours looking for something that he needed, something that he has been trying to find ever since I tried cancelling this story, a spell. Clyde had found a hut after all this time and entered inside, eyes meeting a room filled with potions and spells, but he wanted a specific one that will help in his plans. Clyde checked the drawers, the shelves, everywhere, even ripped the room apart, but it was no use. Clyde growled in anger as the potion wasn't there.
"WHERE IS IT???" yelled Clyde. He was just about to leave when he noticed something, the front door had a net on it acting as a shelf for one specific potion, one labeled
MAGIC POTION
. Clyde was relieved yet embarrassed and quickly took the potion.
"Hehehehe, now it's time to drink up." Clyde said. Clyde drank the potion and soon after felt power, but the effects made it to where he only had enough power for one spell, "So I have to choose wisely, eh."
Clyde thought for one exact second before casting his spell. The spell made it so he had control of the body for one week, one week was all he needed to rule and destroy the world. He laughed wickedly at the thought of it, but first he had to find Sombra. that weakling thought Clyde.
Twilight, Dr. Whooves, and Torture were walking in the woods very carefully as instructed by Whooves himself. Little did they know that something was following them, watching them closely with hungered and angry eyes, the yellow bright eyes.
"So, where are we going Doc, we've been in the woods for, like, AGES," whispered Dr. Torture. During the way out of their prison his monocle broke so he has been acting kinda ... grumpy. That monocle was a little bit of him that he has had for quite a while, ever since he was a villain, it was important to him like a treasure.
"I told you already, we're gonna find Derpy and then find Clyde, that evil rascal. I should have been watching closer and now we're in this mess. Timberland is the worst area to be in, what with all the animals and, actually, all the residents being made of timber and wood. All these beasts can kill us in a heartbeat," explained Dr. Whooves, or if you like, Time Turner. He heard rustling straight ahead of them, but it quickly stopped after a few seconds. Time Turner grabbed a sharp stick and faced it towards the bushes where the rustling was heard. the area was quiet, except for the timber birds that were in the area chirping. Dr. Whooves had lowered his weapon, but his guard wasn't. "Well whatever it was, it's gone now."
Twilight was a little scared and cling onto Dr. Torture for safety. The group continued their walk towards North where Whooves believed Derpy was being held. The same bush that had made the rustling had rustled again soon after they left the area and revealed a pair of glowing orbs in the shadows, one red the other green, looking at the direction where our group had left to. A growled was heard and the orbs vanished, the bush was crushed by a tail with a spiky club attached to the tip and whatever the creature was had begun following the trio up North.
The Cutie Mark Crusaders had just finished an attempt to getting their cutie marks and failed horribly, all covered in sap.
"Awe why can't we get our cutie marks, we try so hard," asked Sweetie Belle, looking sadder then ever before, cuteness levels were probably off the hook.
"Aw don't worry Sweetie Belle, we'll think'a somethin'," reassured Applebloom.
"Who are we kidding Applebloom, we've tried EVERYTHING and we always fail. Lets face it, we'll never get our cutie marks," cried Scootaloo.
Sombra was looking for somepony to make a henchmen when he heard something, it was faint but something, "... and we always fail. Lets face it, we'll never get our cutie marks."
Sombra was having an idea, "They want their cutie marks eh, well they'll get their cutie marks ... as my new 'butterfly watching helpers'," said Sombra devilishly. Sombra softly chuckled as he went to the area where he heard that voice.
Sombra saw three filly's in a clearing covered in tree sap. Why are they in tree sap thought Sombra, but he put the thought aside. He entered the clearing and sneaked up behind them.
Scootaloo sat on the ground in defeat and felt herself about to cry, that is until the sap that covered the trio suddenly vanished off them, "What the-"
a pony cleared his throat, getting the trio's attention, "Hello, I am Armsob and I heard that you three are looking for your cutie marks and I may be willing to help. You see I am a Butterfly-ologist, I study butterfly's and i heard that there is a rainbow colored one that is as huge as a pony in these very woods and I need helpers to find and capture it since it's a rare and supposedly shy creature. Will you three help me?"
The Crusaders all huddled up and whispered if they should do it or not. it took a good twenty seconds until the group broke their huddle, "Mister, you got yourself three helpers."
The trio yelled, "BUTTERFLY CATCHERS, YAY!!!!"
This made Sombra's ears hurt but at least he found some henchmen, or hench-filly's. Now the elements or anypony else won't ever try to hurt him with three cute filly's as both henchmen and, if needed, hostages.
