The Night That Changed Us Forever Part 3

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

"Discord!" We all screech in unison, trying to figure out what the hay is going. Discord is laying on the floor, face down, unconscious. This is a night we will never forget I can tell you that right now. My name is Comet Tail and I am the adopted son of Princess Twilight Sparkle, tonight my best friend has been attacked. I look around me and five other ponies, the exact other ponies I saw in my nightmare, have joined the fight. I do not know them, but right now I can feel that my destiny is revealing itself. I can feel a strange force calling our names.

"Starhunter?!" I yell at him, trying to figure how I know their names because I'm not quite sure. He is a black Pegasus with a powder blue Mohawk-type mane style.

"Wait, huh?" I can't tell how he knows my name, but if he does I'm sure magic is involved and my mom told me never to defy magic. The assassin sent here to kill Discord is running away and we are running after him, all six of us united to a common goal.

"How is your top wing-power?" I ask in a hindered normal voice because I'm beginning to become tired. He seems to be a fast flyer, I hope he can retrieve them in time.

"I've got a maximum of 8.75 wing power. Why?" I know that's not really all that fast, but it'll have to do for what I hope he is trying to do. If me and him are on the same page, I'm pretty sure I know what he wants.

"Go get the Elements, I can sense that all of us can use them to good effect." I continue running to try and confuse the midnight assailant by running through every corridor to hold him off until Starhunter gets back with the Elements of Harmony in tow.

Once the group was out of sight, I follow Comet Tail's instructions and I find the Hall of Harmony, which is where the Elements are kept.

Something is knocking on the door, I open the door and the Elements fly out. The Element of Generosity attaches itself to my neck and I fly back to my comrades. Comet Tail stops dead in his tracks.

"Your flank is roasted now, You Vermin." My horn begins to glow as I announce to the world that the new Element holders have earned their titles. Nopony will be fearful again, The Elements' new prophecy have come to fruition.

The assailant stops and turns around slowly and fearfully. "Oh no..." She stops and is paralyzed with anguish.

"The Element of Generosity, Starhunter." Starhunter's Element begins to faintly glow. He smirks as if he knew we had won.

"The Element of Laughter, Lime Jelly." She hops up as she smiles widely, gracing the world with her happy attitude.

"The Element of Honesty, Orchid Dew." Her expression widens and she tries hard to keep her balance.

"The Element of Loyalty, Burnt Oak." He looks ready to punch the figure straight to the jaw-line.

"The Element of Kindness, Berry Icicle." She shyly gazes through her mane and fingers her Element inquiringly

"The Element of Magic, Comet Tail." I feel as if a long journey has only begun, but I've found friends, honest to Celestia friends. We have got a long journey ahead of us, but I know it will be worth it.

I just blacked out. I don't know what happened until I woke up after that. I was told we defeated the creature and it ported away before it could take the full frontal force of the magic blast.

"Hey guys, I think he's waking up!" I wake up leaned up on the right wall of the corridor. My five new friends are standing over me, seemingly fearful for my life.

"Comet Tail, are you alright? You passed out after the creature ran away." Orchid Dew is a large white unicorn with a purple and mustard yellow mane.

"Yeah...Yeah, I'm okay." I struggle to my hooves, happy to see these people had survive the night previous.

"I feel as if a larger journey has begun for us." I try to speechify. "I feel that we have united in mind to a common goal and we succeeded." I see them smile, all except for Berry Icicle. "We must find this mystery mare and find out what she wanted with Discord to stop her plans in their tracks. Now who is with me?" I stick my hoof out in front of me.
