Chapters The Harmony to be Returned
prologue
"I for one found it delightful. Your little attempt earlier. Sort of a two-pony theater piece, if you will. You should really consider taking it on the road." Mocked Discord. He munched on some black seeds and purposely dropping some in hopes of the weeds blooming and hurting the two alicorns. "What are those little trinkets of yours? You know, the ones you are wanting to send me to an extremely uncomfortable stone prison?"
"We won't tell you anything Discord!! You would use that against us!" Screamed Celestia. The elements of harmony were now out of the girls' saddle bags, flying around them and creating a sort of shield.
"I'm going to need more popcorn!" Laughed Discord. And just like that a rainbow of power hit the tyrant. He was frozen in stone. His face still laughing with joy thinking he won. But Discord knew he wouldn't stay like this for much long. He was going to seek revenge. No matter who pony he took down with him.
Present Day
"How cool a cutie mark representing victory would be!" Scootaloo remarked, looking down at her bare orange flank.
"Scootaloo, you aren't 'victoryful' at anything!" Apple Bloom said snidely ignorent to it hurting her friends feelings.
“Victoryful” is not a word." Protested Sweetie Belle, whom was trying to save Skootaloo from embarrassment.
But that just angered Scootaloo even more. Scootaloo indignantly asked Sweetie Bell, "What are you, a dictionary?"
"Girls please! Princess Celestia has given us a very generous opportunity to be able to tour the stone garden. Please don't make her regret it!" Interrupted Cheerilee. Their bickering came to a halt. "Now, here is a statue of a 'draconequus', its a creature with the head of a pony and a body made up of all sorts of things. Can you guess what the statue represents?"
"Chaos!" Screamed Scootaloo.
"Dodo!" Curesed Sweetie Bell under her breath. But Sweetie made sure that Scootaloo could hear her.
Apple Bloom jumped on her friends' heads. "Both of you are wrong!"
And just like that again the three start fighting. Above them, Discord was starting to wake up. Thanks to these three's bickering, his chaotic power was fusing through his veins. A small circle of power on glows briefly on him.
"You three are correct, with perfectly displaying that the statue represents discord, or 'a lack of harmony between ponies.'” Cheerilee said with a bit of harsh tone is her normally motherly voice. "You can tell more about your ideas in an essay about discord that each of you have to write."
As the class leaves, with the three ponies still arguing who was correct, a large crack spreads across the draconequus statue and a cackle is heard. Discord could feel the future he was dreaming for 1,000 years has finally come. Today was the day he was going to take back his kingdom that was wrongly taken away from him.
Later that day...
"To retrieve your missing Elements just make sense of this change of events. Twists and turns are my master plan. Then find the elements back where you began." Screamed Discord.
Luna whom was resting after a long night of raising the moon jolted hearing the familier echo of an old friend. Luna ripped the covers off her king sized bed and galloped towards the direction of the voice. Her mind led her to the newly renovated hall of elements. Bursting through the doors she saw before her a panicked older sister pacing the room. Celestia looked like she just saw a ghost.
"What is troubling our dear sister?"Asked Luna with concern in her black eyes that shined like the starry night she would preform every night.
"My dear sister! He is back! He is back and there is nothing we can do to stop him this time! Its hopeless!" Cried out Celestia. Tears were staining Luna's coat from her sister's tears.
Luna in her lifetime, had never seen her sister ever be upset. Celestia would always conceal her feelings and display a calm and perfect ruler. Never had Celestia 'let it go' on her emotions. It was confusing to see Celestia in this new light.
"Whom are thou talkest of?" Asked an even more concerned Luna.
"Would you just shut up! No pony in this time even talks like that!! Where you raised in a barn!?" Yelled Celestia. Fire was burning in her eyes.
"No I wasn't. I was raised by you!" Screamed Luna. She stomped of from where her sister stood. While walking away, the shining sun seeked through one of the stain glass windows. Luna looked up at the glass window shining in the summer sun. A shudder ran down Luna's back. Upon her sight was printed in the glass was Nightmare Moon being defeated by the Elements of Harmony. That was her only a few short moons ago. Luna had too herself conceal her emotions because if she would loose her temper, she would become that monster again. Looking back behind her to see if her sister noticed how rude her remark was, she saw that Celestia was too distracted with her own problems to have noticed. With tears streaming from her face, Luna galloped away from the hallway. The rhyme she had heard earlier started to sink back into her mind. She knew what her old friend was leading Twilight and compony. She looked outside the tall window and saw silhouettes of ponies in the maze. "If only they weren't so clueless to understand what he meant and not the trap their stupidity had led there fate towards. I have to go before its to late!"
Looking back once more, she galloped towards the entrance of the castle where there would be a train that would be heading to Ponyville. For once Luna could try to be the hero of the story. She knew how risky and difficult this was gonna be but it had to be done to save everyone she loved.
The Harmony to be Returned
Discord looked down at the ponies running around scared trying to find the elements. "Keep trying, Twilight Sparkle." Said Discord mockingly, "Maybe the magic of friendship can help you. Now if you'll excuse me, I have some chaos to wreck."
Somewhere in Ponyville
"How much longer!! I am getting kinda tired standing in chocolate rain!" Complained Scootaloo. She and her friends were huddled up under a pink unbrella at the Ponyville Train Station. The girls were waiting for there sisters to come back after getting an mandatory meeting with the princess. Scootaloo looked up and kinda guessed whatever the emergency was, it wasn't going anywhere. The chocolate rain kept on coming down.
"Wait look! Here comes a train!! And its one from Canterlot!" Squeaked Sweetie Belle. Her little white horn gave a little spark of magic to go with her excitement. The mystical sparks bedazzled for a second in a pale green, very much similar to Sweetie's eyes.
"Y'all better not act like this when the train stops! I really don't want another lecture from Applejack about manners!" Yelled Applebloom at her two friends who didn't even bother to hear her. Applebloom sighed.
The midnight starry train came riding along at full speed. Princess Luna had to make it to Twilight's library before it was to late. Knowing that if anypony saw her would just end up screaming 'nightmare moon', Luna wore a black silky hooded cape. Stepping one hoof of the platform, Luna's eyes met with the Crusaders. The Crusaders looked back with eyes milky white with fear.
"Its Nightmare Moon! Everypony run for your lives!"Screamed Applebloom. A small dust cloud stood where the three ponies had stood. Each dust cloud was going in opposite directions. Luna gave out a sigh of disbelief and hung her head down. A scream came from behind the station and Luna's ears shot straight up. She ran towards the direction of the pitch.
"Stop squirming! Your pulling my mane!" Sqeaked Sweetie Belle.
"Then you stop being bossy!" Applebloom remarked at Sweetie.
"At least its not tree sap!" Laughed Scootaloo trying to get a smile onto her friends grumpy faces. Both looked back at here faces burning red and flame in there eyes.
Luna turned the corner to find the crusaders tangled in a cotton candy cloud. Luna laughed a little to herself at the sight. The night princess looked up to the sky to see if Discord was in the sky laughing at the outrageous sight. But the dragonicus seemed no where in sight. Luna beckoned forward to help the fillies but fear held her back. These fillies still saw her as the monster she was moons ago.
"How can I be a hero if everyone sees me as a monster! Maybe I shouldn't have come." Whispered Luna to herself. She stumbled back towards the train but stopped when she heard a familiar voice.
"Princess Luna!!" Screamed Spike the Dragon. Spike was getting bored of being home alone while Twilight and the others were still gone. The Crusaders had told Spike earlier that they were gonna be at the train station and if he wanted to tag along, he could. Spike discarded the offer thinking it wasn't worth it. The baby dragon filled with joy dashed towards the princess. He hoped he could get news on what was taking so long.
"Spike no! She is evil!" Screamed Scootaloo but that didn't stop him. Spike's stubby legs flew him to where the princess stood.
"Luna, where is Twilight?' Asked Spike with a puppy dog face, 'Is she dea..." Spike couldn't finished his sentence without coughing out tears. The alicorn hugged the dragon close.
"No they are fine' Said Luna with reinsurance. 'But not for long. I am going to need your help.' Luna looked at the crusaders still stuck togather. 'And you guys too. Are you up to it?
##
That night Applebloom started to rustle in her sleep. Opening her eyes, Applebloom found herself in the Grand Ballroom at Canterlot castle. Looking over her sholder, Applebloom saw Scootaloo just as confused as she was. What pondered Applebloom even more was how Scoots had on a magnificent gown, with brown sparkly silk that matched perfectly with her shining orange coat. Applebloom looked down at her own hooves and niticed green glass slippers on her hooves. She exaimined the amazing dress she was wearing herself. A lily blossem green lace dress with gold tool under the lace. Infront of the two fillies stood Sweetie Belle in a sky blue sweetheart gown. All three girls looked around to realize only they were in the room. Before the ponies stood the marbal statue they saw earlier at there field trip to the Canterlot Stone garden. The fine crafted marble started to chip slowly and then totally colasped. Shards and dust covered the girls making it hard to see. Right where the statue once stood was a creature.
"Friends? That must be what you three must call each other. Strange considering it was you three's little quarrel that got me out of that stone cold prison in the first place!" Mocked the Dragoncuss. He snapped his fingers and right above the crusaders was a cloud. Not just any cloud but it had a touch of pink. Another snap came form the crooked fingers and a mountain of chocolate milk drenched the once beautiful dresses.
"Cut it out, ya big bully!" Applebloomed hollered at the monster.
"Bully? Coming from the pony who bullied her own cousin!" He stooped to Applebloom's level
"What are you even talking about?" Asked Scootaloo flapping her little wings to get to the dragoncus's level.
"Oh wait that hasn't happened yet! This is only season 2!! This happens in the next season" Said the monster to himself while breaking the forth wall. The ponies looked back at him with confused faces. "Do you remember that class trip you took to the gardens?"
"W-what!" Squeked Sweetie Belle. She realized what this monster in the nightmare was trying to tell them.
Scootaloo also caught on as well. "You mean...?' Scootaloo stammered, 'You.. you were the statue?"
"Correction dear Scootaloo! I am the statue! My name is Discord. No need to tell me yours. I already know!" Boasted Discord.
"How... in what tarnation is that possible?" Stuttered Applebloom.
"Give the little pony a prize!' Cheered Discord. With a snap of his fingers, Applebloom was dry with a purple silk robe on and a Applecane in one hoof. "And let me thank the three of you! I would never been able to take over Equestria without your help!"
"How dare you! You think you can intimidate poor, defenseless fillies and get away with it!" Shouted a familiar voice.
"Luna!" Screamed the Crusaders.

I know this may not be the best. I feel really sick and I wanted to get this chapter out before I totally forgot. I will go into more detail probably on this chapter soon especually with the part of the crusaders and letting Discord free. I hope you guys do like this!
The Harmony to be Returned
The Little Assistent
Earlier that day
A deep sigh escaped Spike’s lips as he put down the note Twilight had left him. When he had woken up, he had found it sitting out for him on the kitchen table. She must have left long before he had woken up. Still, the fact that she hadn’t even bothered to wake him and tell him didn’t sit well.
Honestly, he shouldn’t have been surprised by this point. This wasn’t the first time Twilight and the others were off doing something without him, without even telling him about it ahead of time. He couldn’t even count the number of times he had been kept out of the loop, or hadn’t even been invited at all to something they were attending.
He wasn’t allowed to come with them to Canterlot by all means!! And he was born there!! He could understand if Twilight felt like she could trust him to take care of things, but to not even let him be included in their plans depressed him. They hadn’t even stuck around with him when they first arrived at the Grand Galloping Gala, only finding time to spend with him when their own evenings went awry.
With another sigh, he grabbed his broom and went to get started cleaning the library. He didn’t need to give Twilight an excuse to call him out on not doing his duties. After this, he’d just go upstairs and stay out of the way if anypony came by the library. It was all he really felt like doing at this point, his spirits so low already.
He thought of Rarity: beautiful, talented, charitable. She had known about his crush on her. She admitted to as much, more by tears than words, when they were falling to their doom when he had undergone a greed-fueled growth spurt. While she never reciprocated romantic feelings towards him, she still bestowed upon him a great deal of kindness and affection, asking for his assistance around the boutique or when gem-hunting. He was her Spikey-wikey, her Spikey-poo, her little gentledrake helper. But was that all he was to her? A helper? A means of assistance?
Then there was Pinkie Pie: exuberant, loveable, optimistic. She always knew how to make Spike smile, even when he was having an off day, whether it be by hugs or by a party. She could make anypony laugh, anypony smile, anypony have a good time. The little dragon and the pink party planner had always had a strong bond with each other. Even so, why hadn’t Pinkie bothered to invite Spike to Gummy’s birthday party? He had come to her own birthday party, but not Gummy’s. And besides, Pinkie had coerced a confession out of him that had brought her into a downward spiral. Granted, he should have been more aware of what she was going through at the time, but that was it: he hadn’t been informed of the party proceedings until the last minute, when it was time to fetch her for her birthday party. What was he supposed to have said to her?...
Rainbow Dash was fun too: sporty, boyish, devoted. The two had their share of good times several occasions, laughing at Twilight’s expense on a couple of them, and he knew she had a special place for him in that loyal heart of hers. However, she also let her attitude speak for her more often than not. Still, when was the last time the two had really connected, or had spent some time together? Did she still value his company?
And then there was Fluttershy: gentle, patient, compassionate. She had been the first of their friends to truly befriend him when they first arrived in Ponyville, gushing over the fact that he was a baby dragon. While the two never truly spent alone time together, just the two of them, she did trust him, as it was he had come to when she needed someone to take care of Angel while she and the others were away.
And who could forget Applejack: hard-working, outgoing, dependable. She had called him and Twilight practically part of the family when she introduced them to hers. Spike had always looked up to her like a big sister, and she in turn looked upon him like a little brother. She remained patient with him, and had never even considered him anything less than noble. Sometimes, however, he couldn’t help suppressing a nagging doubt that she didn’t want a repeat of what happened then…
And of course, there was Twilight: studious, brilliant, faithful. He wasn’t sure what she was to him. At times, she was his mentor. At others, something like a mother or an older sister. Ever since he had been hatched, the two had been practically inseparable, and had been so to this day. She trusted him with the upkeep of the library and communications with Princess Celestia. She had promised him that she would never abandon him, that she would always be there for him. If that were so, why did he feel so abandoned nowadays? Why did she leave him behind so often, if she was never going to send him away?

Author's Note
I decided to change Scootaloo to Applebloom instead mainly because of the cover photo I have so I may missed a few parts when switching
Alone in the universe
Luna ascended the stairs up to Twilight's bedroom loft. She had become to recently come to realize that ever since she had been freed from the moon, no pony had ever seen her for the princess she is. Luna was thought of as NightMare Moon, the mealious mare of darkness. The green eyed monster lured around Luna in her youth and when that dredful day happened, ponies only remembered her for her old self. Ordinarily she would have been more than ready to hit the hay, but she couldn't feel the sleep come over her body.
Princess Luna strode over to a cupboard in the treehouse loft. She started to open it when a thought seemed to occur to her. The Princess of the Night gathered a pool of silver out from her head. Her magic gently encased the memory in a royal blue glow as she carried it over to the pensieve. The pensieve the alicorn poured the memory into was odd. It looked like it was made from seaweed for one. And it was interwoven with several different things: - there was this feather that crackled with energy, what looked like a strand of changeling hair and this beautiful glowing flower interlocked in the weave of the basket-like pensieve.
"Hey,Luna! Can you please explain how anything happening involves us?" Asked Applebloom whom was assending the stair case to visit the princess. Applebloom and compony could not grasp the concept of what the elements were in Twilight's house. Luna seemed to be a daze when she was around the cutie mark crusaders and the dragon. Then at the top, she shielded her eyes with her right hoof for the bright shing light coming from the room before her.
Luna looked behind towards the orage filly and motioned with her soft motherly wing to come forward. The filly obeyed. In a flash the two were swept up in a smokey white fog. Wondering what was taking Applebloom so long, Scootaloo dashed up the staircase towards the bedroom to find neither her friend or blue alicorn anywhere.
"Sweet Celestia!!" screamed Scootaloo. She ran down stairs to tell Spike and Sweetie Belle what had happened to their friend.
Applebloom opened here eyes to see Luna on the moon crying. The filly tried to move but her hooves were glued to the rockey surface below her. Luna appeared right beside her on the rocky landscape. She gestured now with her hoof towards the misty vision of Luna in her youth.
"Is this you..' Applebloom paused and then finished her question, 'When you were banished long ago?"
The princess nodded. She looked down at her younger self. Fear,terror, and confusion was in the young Luna's eyes: not yet grasping what had happened. Young Luna pondered and was trying to figure out why everything prior was a blur. Tears trickled down the young pony's cheeks when she looked out at her old home that she was now banished from.
The voice of Luna's conscience from back then blasted through the dreary landscape. It told of the story of her struggle with her own self and her banishment.
I spent a thousand years mourning and found no virtue in it. I found no solace or resolution to our conflict. I mourned for what could have been; what I could have been..."
The whole concept of will, good or ill, is irrelevant when speaking of beings such as ourselves. Our actions are not to be questioned by those who we allow to live. We are gods, my precious sister, and gods must be strong. They believe you to be the stronger one. The more beautiful and glorious. They are merely blinded by the illusion your sun casts upon them. I see through it sister. I see through your warm words and soft embraces. I see the poison in your heart; its grotesque stench still burns my lungs.
Now I wait and watch from this tower in which I have been so conveniently placed. What was your reasoning? To ease me gently back into the loving arms of our ponies? Ha! More likely your pathetic attempt to control that which can never be constrained. Remember that the darkness is the ocean in which light has the privilege in swimming. The universe is an ocean without a shore, and with no where to rest, your light will inevitably drown.
That was always your problem, Celestia. The truth was the one sound you tuned out. Perhaps that is incorrect. Yes, you heard the truth sweet sister, but only after you had skewed it to your liking. Only after you had fed it to the maggots that grovel after you. Woe is me for my precious little Luna hath been taken by a demon. Do not hate her my little ponies! Do not shun away the sad little being that is my sister. Pity her and give her your false comforts. Damn you, Celestia...
Like an eternity of water against stone they have eroded away the firm walls of this city. Like a storm they have moved with surprising haste and poured endless death upon your ponies. Yet now the queen of these monsters delays. The head is upon the block and the axe has been lifted with purpose, and she delays!
Mind your surroundings. It is a lesson every living thing must eventually learn or it will perish. I am fearful myself. I am fearful of the elements…I welcome these fears. At the very least I can say that I am not blind as you are. I see and recognize what may actually pose a threat. Unlike you I will not hide or banish such things. I will end them…in time. Priorities come first, Celestia.
There are times where I wonder why I was destined to such hatred. What actions did I commit that warranted such feelings? A millennia gives you much time to think sister. We are no longer the same, Celestia. We have both looked at that forsaken sky. The shadowy dust of old suns glowing deep inside with young light. New stars being born. Planets condensing like rain, covering themselves almost immediately in a velvet of life. When we were young, we saw a universe filled with threat and constant danger. It took the Regal Mother to teach us it was more beautiful than we could bear... Beauty second only to her own. I realize now that even our mother was susceptible to corruption. I turned away from her false truth and now all I see are the colors of nightmare. Every star turned against me.
I once asked why... Why has the sum of my entire existence been defined by struggle? Why must I continue to climb a peakless mountain? We are both gods and yet I still climb to reach you sister. I climbed at the beginning and I climb now yet you still stand in a heaven that is unreachable. I asked why when my own sister allowed our ponies to love only her and despise me. I asked why when I noticed it is you who inherited the shining beauty of our mother while I remained in shadow unseen. I asked why...
"Make it stop, please!" Applebloom yelled at the scene before her very own hooves. The negative energy and dispair was corrupting the young pony. Luna stopped the vision and Applebloom opened her eyes to find herself back in the library. Spike, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo stood in fear upon there return.
The Harmony to be Returned
"Why Luna! I surely missed seeing you. Has it really been 1,000 years?" Mocked Discord while circling his snake like body around the blue alicorn. Luna didn't even cringe under the monsters tightened grasp. She stood strong and firm. Discord gave a huff of frustration noticing the princess was still collected.
"Stand down Discord!! Yealed!" Screamed Luna at the dragonicus.
Discord just laughed at her proposal. "Oh no!! Not your 'Royal Canterlot Voice!' I will bring the wood back faster my lord!! Bwa-ha!!" Discord laughter ranged through the high ceiling walls making the room shake. "Oh Lord Luna your servant Caliban is here to serve you! HAHA!!"
Ignoring his torment, Luna lashed back, "Like Caliban you are a fish out of water whom got hit by lightning! Wo is you!!"
"You go Luna" Encouraged Scootaloo.
"Shut up Dodo!" Yelled Sweetie Belle at Scootaloo.
"You guys aren't helping!!" Screamed Luna, Discord and Apple Bloom at the two bickering ponies.
Both Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle stood there in both shock and embarrassment. Sweetie Belle stucked her tongue at the orange filly when her back was turned.
"Ugh! I am getting a huge migrane listening to all you guys!!" Discord flicked his crokerel fingers and a huge Advil appeared from a patch of smoke. A glass of water appeared in his lion paw. Taking a pause he swallowed the pill and gave a relaxing burp of satisfaction. "Well it was fun messing around with you guys in this dream but I have a wave of chaos to preform so if you excuse me!" Then the dream world started to dissolve to the eyes.
On the other side of the dream
"Guys! Please wake up!" Pleaded Spike shaking Apple Bloom. Tears were streaming from her eyes. Sweat trickling her glossy coat. Sleeping next to the filly were Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle both paniked in there dreams. Spike and the CMC with Luna were all spending the night in Twilight's treehouse library.Before the CMC had tried to plead with Spike to not allow the blue alicorn who used to be the villain Nightmare Moon stay the night with them. Spike stood his ground. Twilight had left Spike in charge of the library and he would decide who would and who wouldn't stay there. Spike looked up towards the direction of Twilight's bed where the princess of the night was sleeping. Spike didn't want to bother her because she is in charge of raising the moon every night and could be fast alseep after the hard work.
"No Discord come back here! NO!!" Screamed Scootaloo. Like a lighting bolt she jolt awake. Her eyes looked blood shot as if she hadn't slept at all. The blanket she and the crusaders had been sharing was now soaked with sweat. Seconds later the other two jolted awake also. All three were trembling and shaken after what ever had just happened.
Spike heard hoofsteps coming down from the stairs that led to the bedroom. Scootaloo's scream must have woken up the night princess from her deep slumber. Spike looked at the glowing princess and noticed her flowing mane was mattered and messy. Instead of panic in her eyes, there was deep sadness like she had seen a pony die.
"Oh Luna!! What happened?!" Cried Applebloom running towards the princess. Luna placed a motherly hoof over the troubled mare clutching her close.
"That.. That is... or was... an old friend. He is the reason for the chaos." Luna choked at the words. She was in mental shock for seeiimg an old friend return. Both Luna and her sister Celestia had hopped a prison for 1,000 years would give hom time to reconcile his actions to repent. But as seen from her own experiences that is never the case. Revenge was pierced into his soul. Luna could see through his eyes burning anguish from being betrayed from from someone he had trusted. And he was put into exile from her and Celestia. Memories of laughter flooded back. They used to be so close and now many years later were so far.
"He said we helped him escape! How in the wide world of Equestria is that possiable!" Cried out Scootaloo. The other two from the CMC had also joined Applebloom with loving confort from Luna.
"WAIT HOLD UP! You guys were all in the same dream together!? WHAT!"Spike was flabbergasted at what he was hearing. How on earth could four ponies have the same dream at the exact same time.
"Its to hard to explain. I have ben gifted with this talent since birth."
"So you can see what we are dreaming like 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 52 weeks a year! Dude that's creepy." Commented Spike.
"Spike, shut up!" Demanded Apple Bloom.
"Hey! She was in your dream and you aren't a little disturbed?" Asked Spike the dragon.
"Its was a little unrealistic at first but she helped us. This monster was tormenting us. He even congratulated us for freeing him. But what I don't get is how he knew us and how we freed him? He mentioned the statue in the stone garden and that was him. Could our fight really free him?" Asked Sweetie Belle.
"I am sorry but I believe that is the truth. Discord, the monster in the dream, feeds off of chaos happening around him. When your class made the field trip, your fight fed his life energy inside. With the elements of harmony no longer in our hoofs, we couldn't stop his reawakening. That is why twilight and her friends were called to Canterlot. But Discord was able to get hold of the elements and hid them so they would not be activated. He gave a little riddle on where it is but twilight's ignorance led her friends into his trap." Exclaimed Luna.
"So let me get this straight? The elements are gone.." Started Scootaloo.
"And Discord has hid them.." Said Sweetie Belle
"He said a riddle clearly saying the location.." Continued Applebloom
"And you believe where they are?" Finished Spike.
"Well it really was not hard!" Said Luna. She walked towards the mountain shelves of books. She quickly scaned through the many generas ranging from Daring Doo to Gallop With the Wind. An array of sparkle blue magic surrounded one book in particular. Luna flowed the book in front of her hooves before the CMC and Spike. With one spark of magic the book opened and inside was a gold crown with a star shaped amethyst stone and five necklaces with unique difference shown in them. One a blue sapphire in the shape of a ballon, a dazzling ruby in a lightning bolt mold, a spessartite garnet in an apple, a rose quartz shaped like a gentle butterfly, and a chalcedony shaped as a diamond.
Author's Note
Caliban is a reference to Shakespeare's play "Tempest" He is the crazy hermit dude on the island who is the servent to Prospero and Prospero's daughter Maranda. Caliban is a castaway like Prospero and Miranda who unlike them got struck by lightning and looked fish-like after the insistant.

Also sorry if this is not good!! I was trying to get one more chapter before the plot accelerates. I have had many things to do with balancing school and my youtube account. I will probably soon also get back to some other stories that just are left unintended. I hope you still like though!
