Six Stones

Chapter 1.5: The Decision

Few nights earliar:

“Okay, now where should I sleep for today? Hey why is pinkie doing tha—“Smash”

<><><><><><>

Everything went dark, I was pulled by what seems to be a reddish orb. As I was halted, the orb spoke.

“Welcome newcomer” spoke the thing.

“Who are you?”

“I am a friend.”

“Ok… so what do you want?”

“Straight to the point I like that about you. The reason why you are here is so I can help you.”

“How can you help me when you’re just a dream? This would be the craziest one I’ve had yet.” The orb chuckled.

“This is no mere dream. I brought you here for a few reasons.”

“Okay what are you reasons then?”

“What if I told you that there is a way to return you home? And would you be willing to obey my commands in order to get what you

want?”

“Well it would depend on what you would want me to do.”

“I will give you power beyond your imagination but first you must swear your allegiance to me, and only me and if you disobey me you will lose the one thing you want most, will you Christian accept my terms?”

“Hmm… I will think about it.”

“It’s your choice obey me and I will send you home, or don’t accept but I will always be waiting.”

Meanwhile in the guest room…

“Ah Doctor I am glad to see you’re here”

“Your highness the pleasure is mine; do you mind me asking Princess Luna why you have summoned me?” While bowing.

“Rise Doctor I brought thou here because you may have heard about the creature already also brought thou here to determine the cause of his condition. He was knocked out from a potted plant, and won’t wake up it, has been 1 day, though a minor injury to the head.” Luna opens the door to let the Doctor in.

“Well I will examine him give me a 30 minutes to see if there is something wrong with his head.”

<><><><><><>

“All right I have made a decision. I will take up your offer since you are the only option for me to return home.”

“Excellent choice, I will begin the process in a second but I need to tell you that I have enabled another memory to cover this one to prevent prying eyes from seeing our little conversation.”

“Wait what?” he cut me off.

“Beginning the process”

<><><><><><>

“Well I discovered something but it might be nothing but to make sure we will have to take him to the hospital to examine him more Princess.”  The Doctor said to Luna.

“Very well you make take him there”

As soon as they touched me my body started jerking around. It caught them off-guard not knowing what to do they stepped back and I stopped. They tried to move me again but I jerked again. So they ended up not moving me.

“Damn! That hurt like a B!TCH” trying to ease my pain

“You now have the power, but heed my warning you will not be able to access this it will require a few days to regenerate.”

“Okay so what will you have me do?”

“In the meantime you must have everypony trust even if it means labor work. Answer any and all questions they ask; but you must not tell them about our little conversation and our little deal.”

“Very well will that be all?”

“Not quite, there are stones that need to be found; these stones will be helpful for you but I have hidden them all throughout ponyville and in Canterlot which you are currently in but you shall not worry about that until you find all 5 in ponyville; leave the one that’s here last”

“Gain ponies trust and find Gems got it”

“I will brief you on where the stones are, the first is in the deep of the everfree forest where lay ruins of an old castle. The second will lie in a library that has been there a while but hopefully no one has found the Secret entrance that leads under the library. The third will be under a bridge that stone has been used for the bridge. Fourth will be on a fountain near town square and the fifth is at the crystal empire.”

“Well sounds like I need to cover a lot of ground then?” I said sarcastically.

“I can see images of the future and I know when you will be able to get the stones, in due time we have plenty of time for you to gain all the ponies trust and I shall guide you through most of the conversations if they are a threat to us.”

“So who are you exactly you never told me your name?”

“As I told you I am a friend.”

“And yet you don’t have a name or what?”

“You may call me whatever I have many names.”

“Alright lemme think of a name…” what would be a good name for you? “Aha I got it I will call you Bob, since that was the first thing to come up in my mind.”

“Bob will be a fine name for now, but we must focus I will tell you what lays in the everfree forest, the manticores are volatile creature

they are composed of different creature the head of a lion, it has wings like a bat, and it has a scorpion tail I would be careful not to be stung by it”

“I’ll try not to, did you know I have never been stung before which I suppose is bad and now if I face a blow by its tail then I am pretty much screwed”

“I guarantee you that it will hurt, but don’t worry they have antidotes for the poison.”

What’s happening?! It went dark again Bob told me one last thing “Don’t speak of the conversation we had and good luck.” Well that’s great now to create an alibi….
