chapter one - Bad day

chapter one - Bad day

Today was a boring day nothing to do but make small talk. Ugh why is today so boring Scootaloo said to both her friends. Ah don’t know but seems like it is to quite since Twilight and the rest oi the girls are in canterlot.

          True but why is it taking so long for them to get back. Not sure but seems like twilight taking her role as ruler seriously for once.

Well yeah, both luna and Celestia are both dead and the regal sisters wish was for twilight to take over.

          That is true sweetie belle said out of nowhere with cupcakes from sugar cube corner. Ah, thank you for the sweets sweetie belle I needed this after worrying bout things.

It's no biggie besides they should be home in a few days I hope she said as she plopped her flank on the grass.

          They continued to show down on the sweet treat when a scroll showed up outta thin air. Ah, wonder if it’s a message from twilight and my sister. Not sure but I want to read it.

Dear crusaders

I hope all is well, we are dealing with some strange clouds and hope to be back soon. Also, keep an eye out for trouble things seem okay for now but can not be too careful

Love Princess Twilight sparkle

          At least they are ok and what she mean by weird clouds ah never hear of such a thing in mah life apple bloom shouted. Not sure but sounds like we gotta keep a lookout for trouble, though.

Meanwhile in Canterlot.

          Damn you clouds and all. The clouds started to chase the cyan mare who only growled at them until they started shooting lightning at her. Hey, whats the deal clouds I didn’t mean to insult you, you're just making my job all that harder.

          Well, look at that you made the clouds mad discord said while reading a fascinating book. Uh, a little help here would be nice thanks.

Nope, the clouds seem to have taken a fancy to you miss dash discord said as the clouds continued to try and strike her with lightning.

          You are useless discord, just as she said that a lightning bolt hit her wing forcing her to land down next to discord, ha-ha the clouds finally win and yes sure ill help you now, he then snapped his fingers and the clouds were popped into a cage.

          About time you got finished a pinkie pie said bouncing around in a storm of giggles. I'd be done sooner if discord would have helped from the beginning. What and miss out on the fun of lightning making you look dense never. Wheres Aj and Fluttershy at Dash said . they are at the castle waiting for us I think.

          At the Castle.

          Twilight started to pace the throne room wondering why the clouds were here and why now of all times that they appear. this makes no sense at all why must you have left me. just then the door opened revealing all her friends.

          Darling, you must calm down the cloud problem is no more. Ah sure hope so the damn things are annoying as buck AJ said with a scowl.

Even my understanding of the clouds is weird Discord said , It is strange how much dark magic they have and the immense strength they have.

          Are you saying they aren’t just for show? That is exactly what I said, what gets me is this is magic unknown to most ponies even star swirl the bearded knew nothing of this.

          I wonder if there is a book somewhere that tells about it twilight said eager to learn. Well there is a book but it is ancient beyond my years discord said. Twilight then turned the page and read the passage to the book discord handed her.

          Uh oh, this is bad really bad. What is it sugar cube something you find, yes the clouds are from a spell and the user is an alicorn. That don’t sound good at all. It isn’t and there a lot more to this then we know for sure.

          Ah hate to be their bearer of bad news but them clouds are back and seems like a lot more than last time. We need to get to PonyVille now and get to the tree of harmony it may have some clues.

As they made it to the train station a dark figure was looming in the shadows.

Back in PonyVille

       Be that Twilight and the others and why are they running Scootaloo said in a panicky voice. Ah have no idea but I smell trouble. True let's go see what’s wrong.

          Twilight what is going on why you back earlier than expected sweetie belle asked. We have a cloud problem and we need to get to the tree now while we have a chance to.

At the tree

The tree is gone what the buck is going on Dash asked to the other mare who all shook their heads. Well, this sucks now we have no way of figuring out what the clouds are doing here.

          I think I can answer that my Ponies and fillies said a looming voice from atop the mountain. The clouds are called chaser and they are my minions said the alicorn. Who are ya you varmit AJ said in a stern voice. Where are my manners names Dark Steiner the dark alicorn and soon your death.

           Not on my watch Steiner Twilight said as she cast a blast spell to the alicorn but only to miss her mark. Haha, you really think you can hit me with your spells at your level don’t make me laugh Twilight and yes I know all about to as well.

          This isn’t good not one bit I can't stop him at this point in time and the only way to stop him may be the elements.if your thinking the elements and friendship will save you well your wrong hahahahahaha!

          Crusaders get outta here Twilight said we will hold him here don’t worry about us. The three nodded wondering off.

The battle that ensured would be the elements last one.
