The Frozen Bolt
Chapter 1.5: Time
Previous ChapterNext ChapterAs I read I came across many theories of how it disappeared, but all of them had, uncoincidentally, the fact that there was snow and ice everywhere where my village was supposed to be.
"I know." I said aloud as reading the text triggered my memory.
"Know what?" Twilight questioned.
"Hundreds of years ago, we were attacked by windigos because of our arguing, pride, and ignorance. Everypony wanted to prove that their element was the best of them all. We were frozen during my ceremony to rise as village chief. My father, who controlled wind, said I was to continue to make an effort to stop our arguing while my mother. who controlled mist, supported me in many ways." I said and grew tears.
'Father...Mother...I miss them so much...I'll make them proud.'
"Don't cry, I'm sure you would have been a great leader and that your parents are proud that you survived." Twilight said and put a hoof around me in a half-hug. My tears slowly stopped flowing and a smile dawned upon my face.
A knock came to the door before it opened to show two grey stallions in gold armor who quickly rushed towards me. I jumped back and charged my horn quickly, firing a bolt of lightning at them. They caught it in some cone-shaped object and continued running and catching my magic. They put the object on my horn and chained my legs. I was in no position to struggle or protest. My magic wouldn't start up.
"What is the meaning of this?!" Twilight outraged.
"That unicorn is very foreign and may be a threat to us." A stern, but motherly voice came from the door and a light green, blue, and pink maned alicorn walked through the door with golden attire. Her mane flowed with huge amounts of magic.
"Threat?!" I raged," I come here to find out who I am, what my purpose here is, which I did. Now I just want to save my village and live again. Take these restraints off of me!" I roared and the guards seemed a bit fearful in their eyes.
"Princess, don't judge him based off that reaction. He is telling the truth and he's my newest friend. Lightning Shot met Cadence." Twilight defended and this princess had a look of disbelief, but then of interest at me.
'It feels good to have a friend after all those years...'
"Take them off him." She commanded and the guards quickly removed them from me.
"Forgive me, I am Princess Celestia. Ruler of Equestria." She said and Twilight suddenly bowed. I just gave a nod with a stern look into her eyes.
"Rise, Twilight." She said and Twilight rose.
"Why didn't you bow?" She asked curiously with a look that told me she thought I was rebellious and disrespectful. That was the opposite of the case.
"Leadership was recognized with a stern look in the eyes and a nod to show sincerity and due respect. Also, I'm supposed to be a ruler myself." I said, "Speaking of, could you send me back in time with your powerful alicorn magic so I can save my village? I know we weren't seeing eye to eye, but overlook my previous reactions if you will." I asked.
"What is the name of your village?" Celestia asked.
"Elementis, a small place." I responded and Celestia grew a wide smile.
"I remember that special village of battle unicorns. I wish I knew what caused its disappearance, I'd love to see it return. I did know somepony by the name of Wind Force." She answered.
"That's my father, the...old chief. Now please, send me back, quickly." I stated.
'Hold on everypony, I'll save you all soon enough.'
