"Will you two just stop. Not even the Princess and I know what is causing this storm I mean it’s like it’s coming from the Everfreeforest because it’s moving all by its self, but I can ensure you that we will find out what is causing this storm.” Twilight told the girls with bravery in her voice. “Twilight is right we will find out who or what is causing this storm girls.” Princess Celesta tells the girls. “Twilight I think I have a feeling who is causing this storm.” Princess Celesta whispers to Twilight. “Who do you think it is Princess?” Twilight asked Celesta in a whisper. “I think it is Queen Thunder Hoof but maybe it might be one of her children.” Princess Celesta tells Twilight in a whisper and with concern in her voice. All of a sudden the storm stopped this arose question and concern to the ponies. As the six ponies walked home to ponyvill they saw a shadowy figure just standing there, so they walked up to the figure. “H-h-hi I-I-I’m Twilight and this is Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Apple Jack, Flutter Shy, and Pinky Pie. And you are?” Twilight asked shakily. “I am Princess Storm. (Lighting strikes and Thunder sounds)” she said with much volume in her voice. “One question why are you yelling at us?” AJ asked her. “Well I’m not trying to yell at you, but my mother says that you need to talk with that much volume in your voice for you subjects to listen to you I’m very sorry if it seemed like I was yelling at you I am” Princess Storm told the six girls. “Oh its ok Princess Storm we didn't know that you didn't mean to yell at us.” AJ explained to Princess Storm. “Please call me Storm just Storm.” Storm told the six girls. "Ok Storm so are you one Princess Celesta’s cousins or something?” AJ asked Storm. “No I’m not really.” Storm told AJ. “Oh well do you know what was causing that storm Princess?” AJ asked. “Why yes I do, you see my mother she can control weather and things like that.” Storm explained to the six girls. “So who is your mom huh.” Rainbow Dash so rudely interrupted and asked Storm communally. “Well before you interrupted I was going to tell you.” Storm told Rainbow Dash. “Oh sorry my bad.” Rainbow Dash said. “Ok don’t feck out or anything like that ok so my mother Queen Thunder Hoof now remember don’t feck out or anything like that ok.” Storm told the girls. “So let me get this straight so your mom is Queen Thunder Hoof, so your dad is like King Thunder Hoof and you’re like royalty, then tell me why you aren't an Alicorn huh?” Rainbow Dash asked Storm. “Oh I am an Alicorn.” Storm tells Rainbow Dash as she takes off her cape and hood to show her wings and horn, and spreads her wings to full size, and Rainbow Dash starts to sink down and puts her ears and her wings down. “Oh sorry for that Storm.” Rainbow Dash tells Storm. “Its ok Rainbow Dash when I have my cape and hood on it hides my wings and horn but everypony makes mistakes every once in wile so it’s ok Rainbow Dash.” Storm tells Rainbow Dash. “Sorry to interrupt but is there anything you can do to make you Mother stop sending out storms whenever she feels like it because rain water isn't wary good for my main and tail so if you can do something please do so before your Mother sends out another storm ok Storm?” Rarity asks Storm as she tosses her hair around. “Well I would if I could you see my magic with weather isn't very good yet for you see I need to start small and move up to a large chunk of Equestria, and you see my mother can make one huge storm over all Equestria and I can only make one vary small storm in a room.” Storm told the girls. “Well I think we can help you with your weather magic I’m I right guys.” Rainbow Dash said inspiringly. “Well I guess so but I never studded storm magic before but I guess I can try.” Twilight said. As they all walked over to the library Spike came screaming out. "Twilight Twilight there is a monster in the library.” Spike told Twilight with fear. As the girls walked into the library they saw little Nyx just sitting in the corner across the room reading a book. “Spike is this your monster?” Twilight asked Spike. "Y-y-y-yes Twilight.” Spike told Twilight. “Spike Nyx is not a monster she is our friend. Ok now we need to help Storm with her storm magic come on Storm.” Twilight said as the girls continued into the library. “You can do it Storm!” Rainbow Dash chanted on Storm as there was a small storm forming in the room getting larger and larger every moment. As spike cowers in the corner a crash of thunder and a streak of lightning make Spike jump on Twilight’s back with a loud scream. “Spike! Can you get off my back please?” Twilight asked Spike. “Oh and Rainbow Dash my dad isn't King Thunder Hove he’s King Lighting mane.” Storm whispers to Rainbow Dash. As the girls take a brake Storm tells them about her mom “Girls so I think I know how to help with this so my mother is one of the ancients, the ancients are the Alicorns that ruled Equestria before the Princesses, so we need to look for some info on the ancients ok.” Storm explained. As the seven of them look throe the dozens of shelves Twilight yells to the girls. “Hey I found something.” Twilight told them. Twilight brings a huge book covered in dust and the leather cover torn by age as Twilight flips throe the pages and stops on one page with the words “The Ancients” written largely at the top of the page. “Well I think we’re going to half to do a lot of reading.” Twilight tells the girls. Twilight reads aloud “Before the Alicorns who ruled Equestria there were the Ancients, the Ancients were Alicorns who ruled side by side there were four mane Ancients who ruled over all they were Queen Thunder Hove the ruler of the weather, King Tree Wind the ruler of the earth, Queen Solar Flare the ruler of the sun and day, and Queen Luna Moon the ruler of the moon and night. The tapestry of the ancients is the symbols of the four mane Ancients.” The book reads. “Wow that was kinda boring.” Rainbow Dash says. “Well you wouldn't let me finish the rest of it Rainbow.” Twilight tells Rainbow Dash. Counting the story in the book “There wear more than four Ancients one of which was corrupted by her power and she became the Ancient of war even though there was none although the other Ancients tried to stop her then the mane four locked her away in the tallest and oldest volcano and became dormant as soon as she was locked away. The Ancients were to control all of their power even the seasons but as time wore on the four Ancients could not keep controlling everything and thus the season Ancients wear born they were Winter Ice the controller of Winter, Spring Breeze the controller of Spring, Summer Wind the controller Summer, and Fall Leaves the controller of Fall they controlled the seasons together and with this the Ancients made Equestria.” Twilight finished reading the page. “Wow that’s a lot of things stuffed into a book.” Rainbow Dash exclaims. “Well that was just the first page Rainbow.” Twilight explains. “Well now that we found out about some of the history of the Ancients I think now we better find the castle.” Storm explains to the girls. “Castle?!” all six of them say at once. “Why yes of course what do you think that my mom lives in a cloud and was sent to their wen the princess came, well she was sent to a cloud in the sky as all the mane Ancients wear sent to their representing symbols.” Storm explains. //-------------------------------------------------------// 3: Dark Rising //-------------------------------------------------------// 3: Dark Rising https://derpicdn.net/media/W1siZiIsIjIwMTMvMDMvMjAvMDJfNTRfNTNfMzY5XzI3NDkwMF9fVU5PUFRfX3NhZmVfdmVjdG9yX2Fic3VyZF9yZXNfYmFja2dyb3VuZF9ldmVyZnJlZV9mb3Jlc3RfY2FzdGxlX3J1aW5zX2FydGlzdF9lbWJlcmZpcmVtYW5lLnBuZyJdXQ/274900__safe_vector_absurd%2Bres_background_everfree%2Bforest_castle_ruins_artist-colon-emberfiremane.png Chapter 3 Dark Rising "What Thundercloud why wear you running away from us?" Storm asked Thundercloud. "Well I was just seeing how fast these two can run and wasn't it fun." Thundercloud said almost sarcastically. "Really Thundercloud why wear you running from us?!" Storm demanded. "Your no fun sister of mine. Ok this is why I was really running from you, so you see mom is quite mad right now and i just dont want to get caught up it her storm of anger and that was why I was running from you and also I just waned to have some fun with them, dose that satisfy you sister." Thundercloud told Storm. As the nine of ponies walked endlessly in to the Everfree Forest fog quickly surrounded them. Wondering throe the fog without knowing where they were made it impossible to tell where the Castle was. "Are we their yet?" Rarity asked. "For the thousandth time no, I don't really know where we are cus of all of this fog." Storm told Rarity. As the nine ponies walk farther into the fog Storm stops and moves her hoof around in the fog. "Guys we need to find a bridge." Storm told them. "What do we need a bridge for we can just keep walking till we find the castle heash." Rainbow Dash exclaimed and started walking forward but as she did she found that their was no ground beneath her hooves. ~~~ As she was falling she felt a tug on her tale and heard somepony screaming at her "RAINBOW DASH USE YOUR WINGS ALL READY I CANT HOLD YOU UP ANY LONGER SO IF YOU DON'T WANT TO PLUMMET TO YOUR DEATH I SUGGEST THAT YOU USE YOUR WINGS AND FLY BACK UP HEAR RIGHT NOW!" Storm said demanding her to do as she said. As Rainbow Dash spreed her wings out and started flapping them she saw something move in the shadows. "AAA guys I think something is down hear I saw it's shadow, I'm really starting to freak out now!" Rainbow Dash said fearfully. "Just keep flapping your wings and get up hear ok Rainbow." Storm told Rainbow. Finely Rainbow got out of the river's crevice. "Ok so Rainbow you said you saw something's shadow right." Twilight asked Rainbow Dash. "Ug yes I all ready told you guys." Rainbow Dash told the others. "I'm really sorry Rainbow Dash but I can't go off of just you seeing a shadow down there I really am sorry." Twilight told Rainbow. Rainbow Dash's jaw dropped down to the ground after hearing what Twilight just said. "Really guys I think we should find that bridge now." Storm told everypony. "Um why don't we just fly over you got wings right." Rainbow Dash exclaimed. "Not everypony has wings Rainbow Dash." Twilight told Rainbow Dash. Just then Storm jumped on in. "Well maybe i can cast a flight spell on everypony that cant fly." Storm said shakily. "WELL JUST DO IT ALL READY!' Rainbow Dash commanded Storm. "Well its not that easy you know Rainbow but i will try." Storm said. As her horn started glowing a midnight blue the magic started going thou everypony that didn't have wings and soon after they wear air born and started flying across the chasm with the low shallow river at the bottom. "Just don't look down it helps wen your a first time flyer." Rainbow Dash told everypony. "OOH look at the pretty sparkly water." Pinkie Pie said not listing to what Rainbow just said. As soon as Pinkie Pie finshed talking Rainbow Dash quickly fasehoofed to what she said. "Pinkie what did I just say" Rainbow commandingly asked Pinkie Pie. "Something to do with looking down Dashie." Pinkie Pie replied to Rainbow.

Rainbow Dash said as she started to fly over the trench with the others. "Turn back now........" a ere voice said beyond the trench "W-w-who said that." Rainbow Dash yelled shakily. "I am the guardian of the castle of the Storm............." the ere voice said beyond the trench "No need to worry Rainbow Dash its just the guardian it wont bite." Storm said to her friend. "Haha."

Storm tells the six. As the girls walk deeper and deeper into the Everfree forest a movement stops the girls in there tracks. "What was that!?" Twilight asked. The bush was rustling like their was somepony in there, as Storm used her magic to pull out something or should i say somepony out of the bush, then Storm dropped her magic and a small filly dropped too, Flutter Shy flew over to catch the filly just in time and put the filly safely on the ground, The filly was crying and it looked like she has been crying for a wile. "Why are you crying little filly?" Flutter Shy asked the little filly in the sweetest little voice. "I-I-I-I w-was looking for my big sister and big brother the this huge pony started chasing me then I hid in this bush and the bush started scratching me and stabbing into me." the filly told Flutter Shy. "Do you have a name little filly?" Flutter Shy asked the little filly. "Y-yes its NightWing." NightWing told Flutter Shy. "I'm Flutter Shy." Flutter Shy told NightWing. "NIGHTWING WHAT ARE YOU DOING OUT HEAR ALONE IN AT NIGHT!" Storm furiously asked NightWing. "Storm don't yell at her you need to be kind and sweet." Flutter Shy told Storm. "I can yell at her because she is my little sister." Storm told Flutter Shy. "Oh ok I didn't know Storm." Flutter Shy told Storm in barely a whisper. "Now NightWing ware Thundercloud is?" Storm asked NightWing. "No I don't sis, that's why I was looking for you guys." NightWing told Storm. "Ok then NightWing but if you see him tell me ok." Storm told NightWing. Just then a dark blue stallion appeared further into the forest. "Hey you!" Rainbow Dash yelled towards the stallion as he starts to run off "Get back hear!" she yelled at him "Catch me if you can Pegasus." The stallion yelled back to Rainbow Dash. "Why the nerve!" Rainbow Dash yells as she starts to chase after him, as she is right above him she sees a glowing horn on his head and her wings clamp shut, as she falls AJ catches her and puts her down & they both start after him. "Rainbow can you open your wings yet?" AJ asks Rainbow will chasing after the stallion. "No." Rainbow tells AJ. The stallion stops in a clearing and waits for them. "Good run girls." The stallion tells Rainbow and AJ sarcastically. "What is that sopost to mean!?" Rainbow asked the stallion "Sorry I guess that I should introduce myself, I'm Thundercloud." Thundercloud exclaimed.
