Chapter 1: Introductions Are In Order

The creature reveals itself. It is a large, ugly Ursa Major. A creature made out of magical energy, it's body contains the constellation Ursa Major, hence the name. Ursa Majors are known to be protective of their young, the Ursa Minors. However this Ursa Major is no where near it's nest. So the reason for attacking the two Federation officers is unknown.

“Aster, let's do this...”

Both humanoids sprang into action. Aster unlocked the metal claws on her gauntlets to do some heavy damage to the Ursa Major.

“X Claw!” Aster cries out before leaping into the air, both gauntlets poised to strike.

“Rising Blade!” Gideon cries out.

Before their weapons could connect with the Ursa Major, a certain purple alicorn pony arrived without the humanoids' knowledge. The alicorn summoned a freeze spell, her horn glows a vivid purple light, as the spell engulfed the two humans and Ursa Major.

“What the hell?” Gideon said, as he moves his eyes to focus on the recent arrival. “A living winged unicorn?”

“There is no need for that...” the alicorn said. “Ursa Majors aren't really violent nor will attack without reason. They're more defensive of their cubs, the Ursa Minors, and their homes. This Ursa Major isn't anywhere near a cave. So comes to the conclusion that it is probably hunting or feels threatened from the meteor crash. Which I can conclude you two were inside your alien ship that crashed in the Everfree Forest.”

Just then the Ursa Major broke through the spell, as it's eyes turned completely black and it's pupils turned a frightening glowing red. It now was free to harm anything within range and it just so happened that the only thing was two humanoids, and a purple alicorn. It chose to attack the alicorn, as it was the being that trapped it in that spell in the first place. The alicorn quickly released Aster and Gideon, to help her take down the Ursa Major.

“Help me take this Ursa Major down without killing it!” the alicorn. Aster knew she was the only one to do the job without killing the Ursa Major. She retracted the claws on her gauntlets and brought her right arm back to deliver a powerful attack to knock out the Ursa Major in one blow.

“SHOOTING STARS!” Aster throws her punch and instead of her fist connecting with the Ursa Major's belly, as it stood on it's hind legs to crush the alicorn. Her fist fires multiple blue chi strikes against the magical bear. The blows connect with it's belly, and knocks it down and out like a light. A black crystal then comes out of the Ursa Major's body, and shatters into a million of sand grain pieces. The bear creature wakes up and flees into the forest to find it's cub.

Gideon and Aster faced the alicorn, as the alicorn walked into view of them. There they saw the “winged unicorn” in all of it's glory. It is a lavender purple mare, with a dark purple mane and tail that has a pink streak to both. On the alicorn's head was a gold tiara crown with five amethyst gemstones embedded on it.

“Who are you two and what are you?” the alicorn mare asked.

“My names is Gideon Jerand, I am a Featherfolk from Roak.” Gideon said.

“I'm Aster R, Kenny. I am a human from Earth.” Aster said. “But what exactly are you?”

“I am a alicorn, one of four rulers in this kingdom called Equestria. You may call me Princess Twilight Sparkle...”
