The Fire and Friendship Chronicles: Book 1
Chapter 1: Meet Leanne

Equstria,
Ponyville,
Sweet Apple Acres,
5AM

“COCK-A-DOODLE-DOO!!!” A rooster was perched on the fence surrounding what appeared to be an apple orchard singing its song which in chain set off a female Collie which was quietly resting in her master’s bedroom.

“BARK! BARK!” As the dog continued yapping, her master, an orange pony with a yellow mane and tail woke up.

“Gosh darn… Winona! Down girl!” The pony shouted to the dog who looked at her master and obediently sat down. The pony looked out of her window to find it was raining and unlike most rainy days, this rain appeared to bring a good message with it.

“Applejack!” The pony responded to her name and walked to her door.

“I’m comin’! Hold yer hooves!” Applejack shouted to the one on the outside of the door. As she opened the door she saw her little sister standing with a frowning face.

“It’s raining today sis, yer not seriously gonna go apple buckin’ are ya?” As much as she didn’t want to go in the rain, Applejack knew this was the day of the year when the apples were at their ripest.

“I’m sorry Applebloom, but ah have to, you know this is the day of the year when the apples are at their ripest. Ah promise ah won’t take too long though.” Applejack knew she would most likely catch a cold but business first and wellbeing later.

“All right, but you better be quick.” Applebloom sighed and walked to somewhere else in the apple family household.

“Well Applejack, may as well get a move on.” Applejack said as she put on her favorite Stetson. As Applejack walked outside into the rain, she saw that the actual town of Ponyville was sunny and not a single cloud was in the sky. She silently cursed her friend Rainbow Dash for most likely pulling a prank on her. Little did she know that this was not a prank. No, This would be something that would change Equestria and especially Ponyville forever. Let’s move onto a different scene in a different place shall we?

Earth,
Australia,
An Outback Town,
5AM

As the sun rose over the Outback lands of the Northern Territory, a red ship was flying overhead. A young female mechanic saw the plane fly over the old tin repair shop and grabbed her bag. She had dirty brown hair in a ponytail, a dark blue cap twisted backwards on her head, Denim overalls covering a grey shirt, yellow gloves and black steel toed shoes. As she ran towards to the direction of the plane, she thought about how her life would change forever.

Flash back:
About a week ago

As a lone figure in a hoodie with rolled up sleeves approached the repair shop, the girl looked at the figure and smiled.

“G’day mate! What can I do for ya?” The Sheila asked the figure. The Figure lifted the hood off of his head to show his face. It wasn't a bad face and the glasses he wore made him look better. Even though the wind was blowing hard, the figure’s hair was at a standstill in its spiked to the right position. As the figure looked at the mechanic, she noticed he had a sword strapped to his waist. The figure reached out of his pocket and pulled out a small cube which looked like a rubix cube only it was made out of some sort of gem.

“I was wondering if you had time to solve a puzzle. I know a lot about you Leanne Patterson, and I know that you have the knowledge to figure out the puzzle of this cube.” Leanne blinked and wondered how this boy who appeared to be the same age as herself knew so much about her.

“Before I do this, tell me how you know about me. And who the hell you are.” Leanne said as she took the cube.

“All right. My name is Sparro McGraw and I am trying to find a dimension gate.”

“A Dimension what?”

“A Dimension gate is a portal created by the ancient people of Earth. Believe it or not, before Dinosaurs or Cavemen, there were Humans living on Earth who had technology that would put ours to shame. One day, a space time scientist figured out a way to travel between dimensions and time itself. All around the planet, the people built the Dimension Gates and traveled to strange new worlds where they built Dimension Gates to travel freely from the worlds. Only two Dimension Gates could be connected and this cube can show us where one is.”

“Where does it lead?” Leanne asked with curiosity in her eyes.

“Before you ask that question, do you watch any shows around 5PM every night?”

“Yes?”

“What show do you watch?” Leanne pondered on the question as she didn’t want to tell a complete stranger what she did on a daily basis but figured it couldn’t hurt.

“Don’t hate on me, but My Little Pony. Why do you ask?”

“Because you just answered your own question.”

“Wait… WHAT?!” Leanne shouted as her eyes tried to escape their bone prison.

“Yep, The land of Equestria. Would you try and solve the cube now? And no, it is not a Rubix cube so don’t try and twist it.” Leanne looked at the cube in her trembling hands. She studied the cube but she still had one more question on her mind.
“What makes you think that I can solve it? I mean, I’m just your regular mechanic.”

“Because you’re the daughter of the scientist. And you are my twin sister.” Leanne looked shocked, surprised, and anything but sad.

“B-but, h-h-how?”

“Allow me to explain. As I told you the scientist or our father lived before any of the other humans on this planet did and had discovered time travel. Being the smart man he was, he spotted several giant meteorites which not only threatened his city, but the entire world. He predicted this to be the end of his people and tried to warn every one of his discovery but no one believed him so he and his children fled to a different time. Unfortunately he had to give the children away as he had to travel to a different planet.”

“So I ended up on my ‘dad’s’ front doorstep but where did you go?”

“In a completely different world in an orphanage. Me and My friend got adopted by the same parents and were raised until one day when I was… reborn, is appropriate. That is also why my new body can’t activate the cube. Not the same DNA.”

“So you didn’t always look like you?”

“No, It’s just I’m not fully human now. If you want to help me find our father, in a week a red plane should fly above this shop. Follow it and meet with me. This should give you enough time to figure out the cube’s secrets.” Sparro said as he walked out of the shop.

“But how will I know when I have-“ She was stopped by Sparro spreading a pair of Pegasus wings and a pair of Dragon wings from his back and flew into the sky. “-Finished it…”

As Leanne followed the plane over the outback desert, she was surprised to see it land in the middle of nowhere and she quickly caught up. Checking that the cube was still in her bag, she put on her sunglasses and looked at the giant red machine. Everything about the plane seemed perfect and as the cock-pit opened up she saw the blonde boy except this time he also had a pair of white Beats around his neck. As he jumped out of the cockpit, Leanne saw that he was not alone, He was talking with what looked like a male his age, with a blue tank top, trousers of the same shade of blue, a cap sporting the same color, grey gloves and a golden sword with a silver handle and hilt.

“Hey! Leanne! Come over here!” Sparro waved as he saw the mechanic. Leanne quickly approached her brother and the newcomer.

“Are you going to tell me that I have yet another brother?” Leanne asked with humor in her voice. Sparro chuckled as he heard this.

“No, but this is one of my many creations. He is my Functional. Robotic. Extermination. Device. Or you can just call him Fred.”

“Hello.” Leanne studied the robot and tried to make sure this wasn't some sort of prank. She then grabbed her wrench out of her bag and tapped Fred on the stomach and heard a distinct clang of metal.

“Blimey, he is a robot. But he looks so much like a human.”

“So you think he’s sort of like me?”

“Are you sayin’ that you’re a robot mate?”

“Technorganic, not quite robot but not fully human either. Now to the matter at hand, I did some research about the Dimension gate and going through it has some strange and albeit cool side effects.”

“Such as?”

“We will get turned into ponies.” At which Fred started laughing… hard.

“He can laugh?” Leanne asked as Fred fell onto the dirt bellow them.

Sparro face-palmed as he waited for Fred to calm down. “Putting an artificial brain in a robot has surprising side-effects such as emotions. Anyway, do you have the cube?” Leanne reached into her bag and pulled out the gem cube.

“It’s actually protected by a special sequence of words and you’re right, it does need my DNA.” Leanne said as she put a finger on each side. “How did you come across it anyway?”

“That is a long story, but you do have a right to know.”

Flashback,
A year ago,

The Mailman as usual came and delivered the mail to Sparro’s house. Expecting it to be more bills for the many loans he had, Sparro got quite a shock when it turned out to be a parcel.

“That’s weird, I haven’t ordered anything and it’s not even close to my birthday.” Sparro signed for the parcel and took the box inside. Turning his hand into a metal blade, he cut the parcel open to reveal a sack, a cube, a letter, and what appeared to be a baby tooth.

“This is the strangest gift I have ever received. May as well read the letter: Dear Sparro,
The world I currently reside in is about to be thrown into total chaos and you are the only one who can stop it. The evil will try and control all of the land and will not rest until it does so. The two rings and the power of the Elements opens the door to the place I call home. The tooth has the DNA of the sister you never knew you had and you have the technology to analyse it so you can find her. The sack holds the world’s currency called Bits and the cube holds the 2 rings I hold dearly, for you and your sister to use. You should know which ring belongs to you. The rest is up to you to find out, once again, a world relies on you to save it my boy.

Love your Father, The Doctor.” Sparro studied the letter to make sure there was nothing fake about it.

“Hey Fred!” Sparro said as he packed everything into his bag and grabbed his sword Dark Heart. “Fire up the DNA Analyzer.”

“That wasn't that long.” Leanne said after hearing Sparro’s story.

“I gave you the really, and I mean REALLY, abbreviated version.”

“Okay… Are we gonna do this or not?”

“Yes, let’s forget that distraction.”

“Are you two gonna hurry it up?” Fred stated bluntly. “This isn’t time for catchup and I want to see pony Sparro.”

“Shut up Fred!” Sparro shouted at his robotic partner at which Leanne uttered “Ahem!”

“Right sorry, carry on.” Sparro said motioning Leanne to speak.

“This is the tricky part. If I don’t do this in the right order, we can’t unlock its secret for another half hour.” As she lifts the first of her index fingers off of the cube. “Honesty.”

Equestria,
Ponyville,
Sweet Apple Acres,

As Applejack was finishing the first wing of apple trees, she heard someone say the word Honesty and the Element of Honesty appeared around her neck in a flash of light.

“What the hay? There must be somethin’ crazy going on somewhere.” Suddenly a rainbow Pegasus flew into the cowpony, knocking her to the ground with the Pegasus standing on top of her.

“AJ! Something crazy happened! I heard the word Loyalty and then my element appeared around my neck!”

“Rainbow Dash?”

“Yes AJ?”

“Would you be as kind as to GET OFFA ME?”

“Oops, sorry.” Rainbow said as she got off of the farm pony. “Anyway, something weird must be happening. And what’s with all of the rain? It’s not supposed to rain today.”

“No doubt something to do with the appearance of the elements!” The two ponies turned around to see their friendly neighborhood Alicorn; Twilight followed by Rarity, Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie who were also wearing their elements. “I’ve already sent a letter to the Princess, she should be here shortly.”

As the six ponies got closer, the elements started glowing and the storm got wilder. “I just hope she gets here quickly.”

Earth,
Australia,
In The Middle Of Nowhere,

As Leanne had said Magic, the cube started glowing and opened up to reveal 2 rings. Both were golden but one had a white star and the other had a black star. Leanne then passed the cube to Sparro who took the ring with the black star and put it on his ring finger and motioned for Leanne to do the same with the ring with the white star. As Leanne put the ring on her finger, she felt a power well up inside of her. Leanne looked at Sparro with a look that said ‘Give me an explanation’.

“Leanne, This is crucial. Repeat after me.” Leanne went to speak but Sparro put a finger over her mouth to silence her.

“Light and Darkness,”

“Light and Darkness,” Leanne repeated.

“Are the hidden elements,”

“Are the hidden elements,”

“To saving Equestria.”

“To saving Equestria.” Leanne finished at which the rings on the twins fingers forced their hands upwards to the sky. Suddenly words were forced into the twins’ heads.

Leanne was enveloped in a blinding light which made a Halo appear above her head and snow white wings grew out of her back. “Light.”

Pure shadows enveloped Sparro and he grabbed the sword around his waist and shoved it into where his heart was which made Leanne gasp but didn't make Fred surprised. What surprised Leanne more was a dark goo that leaked from the wound completely covering Sparro. As the goo fully covered Sparro, a 75 cm claws formed where each Sparro’s fingers would have been. As Sparro opened his eyes, they were revealed to be two giant white glowing circles and his mouth was the same. “Darkness.”

As Sparro had said those words a small black hole appeared in the heart of the ruins and was expanding to massive sizes until it had enlarged into a glowing green vortex which sucked in nearly everything that was not connected or built into the ground for 100 metres, which included the trio and the giant red plane. Little did the three know that leaving Earth would change both Equestria and Earth forever.

Author's Note

I am sorry if this chapter did not make sense but I have left the other important info for the Mane 6 to find out.
First story for Fimfiction and it will be a trilogy of books. I will start developing the cover for the story as I write Chapter 2! Bye!

Chapter 2: Enter The Doctor

The Friendship and Fire Chronicles: Book 1

Chapter 2: Enter the Doctor

“Uh… Girls? You may want to see this…” Rainbow stated as she pointed at a small black orb that floated in place. All of the Mane 6 had their attention on the small orb in the middle of the orchard. “Got any ideas on what it is Egg-head?”

“If I’m correct that is a-”

“-Disruption in the temporal balance in time and space! Isn’t that exciting?” Pinkie exclaimed looking at the little black orb.

“B-but… how… UGGH! Never mind that! Just what is it doing here?” Twilight partly shouted as she put her hooves to her head.

“I think I can enlighten you as to what it’s doing here!” The Mane 6 turned their heads to look at the unknown voice. What they saw was a pale brown stallion with a chocolate brown mane in a green tie and a grey Pegasus mare with a blonde mane.

“And who are you exactly?” Twilight asked a bit appalled that this stallion could know more on a subject than she did. “And why are you with Derpy?”

“Me? Well I am the Doctor, Just the Doctor. For why that temporal disruption is here, it starts at a thing called a dimension gate but that can and will be explained later and for why Miss Hooves is with me, she is my traveling companion.” The Doctor explained as he pulled out a metal rod with a glowing blue tip out of his tie pocket? I dunno but that’s not important. “And by the appearance of our little guest here, they should be arriving soon! Oh I can’t wait!”

“You still haven’t told me what you are waiting for Doctor! The suspense is killing me!” Derpy said sternly to the Doctor raising her hooves into the air to emphasize suspense. “Just give me a clue! Is it some old friend of yours or something?”

“Umm hello? We are still here y’know!” Rainbow exclaimed in a snarky attitude. At that sentence the orb started humming and vibrating. Everyone turned to look at the orb.

“Well… that’s not good. Something has disrupted the Dimension gate. Something big, something very big.” The Doctor pointed the metal rod at the orb which was humming and vibrating more violently than before. The Doctor’s eyes suddenly widened with fear. “Excuse me Twilight?”

“How do you know my-”

“Long story, did you by any chance invite the princess to look at our little guest?” The Doctor asked his eyes plastered to the black spinning orb.

“Yes, I did. Why do you ask?”

The Doctor had a look that could only be described as; “That’s not good!”

“What’s not good Pardner?” Applejack asked eying the Doctor.

“As in something-so-big-as-that-can-destroy -half-of-this-orchard not good!” The Doctor practically yelled with his pitch going higher after every word. “We need to vacate the premises immediately!”

Suddenly the black orb started wobbling and expanding then contracting over and over again. “EVERYPONY RUN!!! IT’S GONNA BLOW!!!” Rainbow Dash yelled over the noise of the black orb.

“Twilight? What is going on?” The 8 ponies turned around to see Princess Celestia and Princess Luna standing behind them.

“Is that the Doctor?” Luna asked looking at the Doctor in question.

“Wonderful seeing you again Luna but… EVERYPONY HIT THE DECK!!!” And everypony did so… well apart from Celestia that is.

“Excuse m-” A Black goo hit Celestia in the face and some of it got stuck on her fur while some splatted on the nearby apple cart.

“Princess!” Twilight yelled over the noise of the spinning orb as she ran to Celestia.

“Luna! Get your sister! We need to get out of here!” Luna levitated the unconscious Celestia and ran off to the barn followed by the other 8 ponies. Running as fast as they could they could feel the vacuum that the portal created as it expanded sucking in the trees and earth that was in its way. As everypony ran into the barn, they saw a flash of white as the portal exploded releasing its contents onto Equestria. Suddenly the opposite side of the barn was impaled by the nose of a giant red plane. “Oh my dear lord…”

“Doctor? What is that thing?!” Luna yelled and asked at the same time as the apple cart rolled into the barn.

“That is what appears to be a plane. A vehicle that carries things to different countries. But this is definitely not an average plane.” Suddenly the screams of the princess of the sun echoed through barn as the black goo appeared to be trying to dislodge itself from Celestia’s face. “Okay, I have seen some messed up things in my travels but this takes the cake.”

The Black goo had grown arms which had long claws as fingers which stretched for 75cm and was attempting to pull itself out of Celestia’s mouth. As the creature had made its way out of Celestia’s mouth and off of her face, it hand grown two legs and appeared to be solid. The creature felt its body to check that everything was there but stopped when it could not feel its head. “Hey Idiot over here!”

The Ponies turned their heads to see that the goo that was on the Apple cart was turning into a head with three spikes running across like a Mohawk. Rarity and Fluttershy shrieked when they saw the head while the others were gaping at the sight before them. The beheaded body stumbled over to the head and picked it up, placing it on its shoulders. “Much Better.”

“What are you? You weren’t supposed to come through the portal!” The Doctor shouted standing up in front of the beast. The being smiled.

“Well aren’t you a feisty one.” The thing said as it back handed the doctor into the wall. It turned its attention to the other ponies but its gaze stopped when it spotted Rainbow Dash. “You are so colorful. It makes me sick. I think I will enjoy covering you in Darkness and taking away that color.”

“Oh yeah? Take your best shot!” Rainbow Dash said as she flew off the wall at the dark being who opened his chest to reveal pure nothingness and closed it when Rainbow had flown through. Twilight stood up and looked at the creature.

“Let her out… Now!” The evil creature laughed a high pitched laugh that made the ponies cover their ears.

“If you insist…” The creature turned to the wall and opened its chest releasing Rainbow who was still flying at top speed crashing through the wall of the barn. The ponies gasped as the being chuckled in its normal deep voice. “What? You wanted me to let her out.”

“Enough Darkk…” The Beast and the ponies (Apart from Celestia, Rainbow and the Doctor who were unconscious.) turned to see what appeared to be a hairless ape wearing mostly blue clothing holding a golden sword with a silver hilt in his hand. By the look of his clothes and the dents in his arms, it looked like he was buried under the wreckage of the barn and plane moments ago. “Let Sparro back out.”

“You think I like being used? I’m constantly being summoned from his subconscious to save himself from death. I always have to fight what he can’t. I don’t get to enjoy my life anymore. Sparro gets to enjoy his. My name never used to be Darkk, but along came Sparro McGraw, Mr. Chosen One, savior of Galaxies and you know what? Guess who usually takes on the leaders of these guys, me! I should be getting praise. And now you want me to voluntarily let-” Darkk stopped as he felt a hand enter his chest where his heart should be. The ape pulled out what appeared to be a light purple sword with a dark purple and red hilt with a purple crystal on the end of the handle.

“Let him out? Yes.” Darkk fell to his knees and cried out a high pitched wail that made all of the ponies cover their ears, even those who were unconscious woke up to the sound. The goo seeped into the spot where the sword came out of to reveal a dark purple stallion with a black and white mane and tail. His cutie mark was a picture of a pair of headphones and he had two bat wings on his back. Hidden in his mane was a pointed horn defining him as a Bat Pony and a Unicorn. The now awakened Doctor mustered all of the strength he could into trying to get to the stallion’s side.

Derpy flew over to the Doctor and caught him just before he fell. “You need to sit down Doctor! You’ll hurt yourself. Doctor?”

As Derpy looked at the brown stallion, she saw he was crying with tears running down his face. “I’m sorry! Did I do something?” Derpy asked as she helped him take his last steps towards the dark purple stallion.

“No Derpy…sniff…He’s finally here… My son is here!” he cried as he fell to the floor next to the unconscious body. Derpy helped the Doctor back up as the one with the golden sword turned to them.

“You are… The Doctor? As in the one who sent Sparro to find his twin sister?” The Doctor nodded as the Purple pony started to stir.

“Fred? Is that you?” Fred smiled as he offered his hand as the purple hoof of Sparro reached it. Sparro stood on all fours and looked at his bare body. “Okay, this is different than I thought it would be.”

“Hmm I wonder why? Oh wait I know! BECAUSE YOU’RE A PONY!!!” Fred fell on the floor laughing, guffawing and every other action that has to do with laughing as Sparro Face-hoofed.

“Shut up idiot. I’m surrounded by ponies… and I know who all of you are!” He said as he looked at the ponies in the room. He pointed to the Mane 6 first. “You are Twilight Sparkle, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Rarity and Fluttershy! Most of the researching I did on this Dimension had something to do with you six!” He said while pointing to the respective ponies who stood their mouths agape except Twilight who had a curios look on her face.

“Excuse me, Dimension?” Sparro ignored the Alicorn and trotted over to Princess Luna who was helping her sister stand up.

“And you must be the Royal Pony Sisters; Princess Celestia and Princess Luna!” Sparro bowed to the Princesses very much like a knight would. “I am Sparro McGraw. I am also known as Univeria Knight. It is an Honor to meet you!”

Trotting over to Fred, Sparro looked at the brown stallion and grey mare. “You two are… Well I know the Mare, You are Ditzy Doo or Derpy Hooves! I don’t which one you like better. Any preference?”
“I-I don’t mind. Derpy is okay.”
“That’s great! I liked that one better! I think that one sounds cuter to say! Ditzy Doo sounds a lot like Scooby-Doo and I could get mixed up with that but for some reason Derpy Hooves reminds me of muffins and muffins are tasty!” Derpy giggled and blushed a little bit at the comment.

“Thanks! I like muffins too! What’s your favorite type?”

“Me? Well I think that White Choc Chip muffins and Blueberry muffins are the best! What’s yours?”

“I think all muffins are good! Well apart from English muffins.”

“Eww. The only things those are good with are eggs and cheese.” Sparro turned towards the Brown Stallion with the green tie. “If I’m correct you are Time Turner. It’s a pleasure meet you too!”

The stallion chuckled at the concept of being called by something that was a disguise. “Oh dear, done in by one of my fake names. Sparro, I am not really Time Turner.”

“Oh Sorry, did I get your name wrong?”

“No Sparro. It’s me, The Doctor. Your Father.” Sparro looked into the blue eyes of the Doctor that were identical to his own. He looked into the far recesses of the Doctor’s mind and could see that the truth had been told. He wasted no time in wrapping the other pony in a hug which was returned just as quickly. “It’s good to see you again… I haven’t seen you since you were only a year old.”

“All this time I thought I never had any family. Look how wrong I was. Speaking of family…” Sparro looked to Fred and they both shouted. “WHERE’S LEANNE?!”
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________

“…Hey Octy! She’s waking up!” Leanne opened her eyes to be greeted by a pony with Purple sunglasses, white fur and a blue mane. “Hey, how are you felling?”
Leanne rubbed her eyes as she thought she was seeing things but this pony looked exactly like Vinyl Scratch and to further surprise her came Octavia Philharmonica walking into the room. Looking down at herself, she could see that she had turned into a light brown earth pony with a brown mane and her blue cap on her head. The only thing she could say was; “IT WORKED!!!”

Author's Note

And Another chapter done and dusted!
