Pony Alert 1

Chapter 2: Allied Equestria 1: Goodbye Ponyville

Location: Lunar Republic, Ponyville, Golden Oaks library.

"Twilight we must go now!"

But BBBFF I can't now i must.."

"You must come with me now!"

"You do not boss over me Mr!"

"No but Luna does. And she gave us direct order to travel to the Crystal Alliance´s capital."

"Why don't she send the army everypony and griffon else does!"

"I don't know why Twily, I really wish i knew but i don't, she just said that we two where the best she had and you know as much as I that Cadance need our help."

"I know but i'm no soldier."

"But you are the smartest unicorn there is and your mind can surely turn the tide of the coming conflict."

"But I don't want to leave my friends, and certainly not without saying goodbye."

"I understand Twily but I also left my friends behind."

"Please BBBFF just give me a day. Then we will travel to the Crystal Alliance together."

"There maybe wont be a Alliance to travel to tomorrow."

"Don't exaggerate BBBFF."

"Twily i know it´s scary but that's the truth. The Solar Empire is just waiting for the right time to strike, then they will take Crystal Germaneigh in one strike."

"Then why are being sent there?"

"Because we can make a difference! The crystal ponies haven't a single general. Not even one. And you know how little they have put into their war budget since the last war. If anything they have disarmed their armies."

"Well it won't make a difference if I arrive tonight or tomorrow and I will work better if I get to say a proper goodbye to my friends. You travel now and then I will travel tomorrow and then we will meet when I arrive. What do you say BBBFF?"

"What if you get assaulted by a Solar ops team? No I don't think it´s a good idea Twily."

"Look i'm no filly I can defend myself if I have to, and maybe I'l take my friends with me!"

"Twily..."

"WHAT! My friends will surely make a difference too."

"Twily if Luna thought so then.."

"MAYBE IL ASK HER! SPIIIKEEE!?"

"We don't have time for this Twily!"

"Yeah what Twilight?"The little purple dragon came running down from the other floor of the library. "I'm just done packing our stuff."

"Take a letter Spike."

"Now?"

"YES NOW!"

"Okay okay."He brought forth a quill and a paper scroll.

"Dear princess Luna"Twilight began. "I believe as your royal student that if i bring along my friends they will also be a great asset to the war, and to be honest I need them with me. Do I have your permission to bring them along? Your faithful student Twilight Sparkle."

The little dragon breathed a little green spark out from his mouth and soon the scroll was gone. A moment later he gave out a loud burp and another scroll appeared.

"Huzzah, Twilight you never stop surprising me. What an splendid idea. Your teacher Luna."The dragon read.

"Yes yes yes yes!"Twilight smiled for the first time since Shining armor came to pick her up.

"Then I guess this is goodbye sis."

"Only for today BBBFF."

"Love you sis."

"Love you to BBBFF."

"Later Spike"

"Later Shining."

With that the white Stallion went out of the front door.

"Does this means that Rarity will come too?"

"Oh Spike of course she will come too. Now all we got to do is find them and see if they are up to the task. It´s no easy thing I'l be asking but together we can accomplish everything!"

"But who will take care of Owlicious, Tank and the rest of all the pets?"

"Hmm that´s a good question spike we must find somepony who will take care of them. I guess that we will find somepony on the way to our friends."

Twilight and Spike walks out of the library and Owlicious flies directly behind them. Walking down the path they see an Pegasus mare sitting on the ground. She has an gray coat and yellow mane. They quickly recognizes Derpy with her crossed eyes. She looks awfully sad. Strange Twilight thinks Derpy always smiles otherwise.

"Whats wrong Derpy?"-

"It´s all my fault."

"What´s your fault?"

"Everything. The war, that he is dead and everything else."

Now Twilight remembered, Derpy´s husband Dr Whooves had committed suicide the last week. Poor Derpy the only pony that loved her was dead. That thought angered Twilight. How can you think that Twilight! She´s a nice pony like everypony else. But still the thought had some truth in it. Most Ponies shunned Derpy for her eyes and her clumsiness.

"And what of Dinky, now she has no father and it´s all because of me."

"Derpy you cant blame his death on yourself, you had nothing to do with it. Think of Dinky she needs you."

"She needs her father and not her worthless mother!"

"Dont say that, you are not worthless."

"But I am, I do nothing right. And now a war is erupting because of it."

"You can't possibly blame the war on yourself! I know it´s scary and i'm afraid to but it´s not your fault. Your child need you and...

"Who who."Owlicious flew over to Derpy and landed in her lap.

"Who who"

Somehow the owl brought a smile to the mare's face. She rose up.

"You are right Twilight, my daughter needs me!"

"Yes and you need her!" Then a thought struck Twilight. "Say Derpy you wouldn't mind pet sitting for me for a while?"

"Huh me?"

"Yes you, you are kind and care for others, you're perfect."

"Okay I guess, I mean yeah gladly. But isn't Fluttershy a better pony to be pet sitting?"

"That's the thing if it isn't too much trouble would you mind pet sitting for at least 4 more? My friends also need somepony to watch their pets."

"Oooh, but I fought you had 5 friends."

"I have but Applejack's family can take care of Winona for her."

"Uh okay".

"So you´re up for it?"

"Sure I think it will sheer both me and Dinky up." Derpy's eyes crossed again.

"Great you´re the best. I'l leave Owlicius here with you and then i'l be back with the others." Twilight gave Derpy a hug.

"Okay."

"Thanks Derpy."

"No Twilight it´s I who should thank you."

Twilight and Spike continues walking towards Sugarcube corner.

"Well that took like forever"Spike said annoyed.

"I know Spike but you saw her she needed our help."

"Yeah and so does all of Equestria."

"You're right, let´s go find the others."

Not long after they run into Pinkie Pie. She jumps down the street cheerily.

"Hi Twilight"Pinkie gave her a big smile.

"Pinkie I need you to get all the others it´s extremely important!"

"Oki doki loki." Immediately the pink mare is gone.

Not long after all of her friends are gathered outside of Sugarcube Corner. Rainbow Dash is flying above them circling around. Fluttershy, Applejack, Rarity and Pinkie Pie stands in a circle around her.

"What´s so important that it can´t wait to after my nap?"Rainbow Dash asked impatiently.

"I have gathered you all here today because we must discuss a matter of great importance. As you all now there´s a war coming.."

Fluttershy gave out a subtle wail. Everypony knew how much she feared hated the coming conflict. Rainbow Dash landed beside her and gave her an supportive hug.

"I wouldn't ask this of you unless i thought it really necessary, but sadly it is. I have been summoned to Crystal Germaneigh to help them against the Solar Empire..."

"Say no more we are in, right girls?"Rainbow Dash shouted out.

"YEAH" everypony said.

"You okay Fluttershy? Twilight asked, she had been most worried over how she would react.

"I´m fine Twilight, these ponies will need us. And I cant stand on seeing ponies suffering without doing anything to help them."

"This is going to be awesome!" Rainbow Dash shouted out. Now maybe i'l be able to join the shadowbolts.

"Yeah a fun adventure hihi" Pinkie Pie giggled.

"No it´s not!"Applejack interrupted, "T'is going to be hard and we'll face challenges.From others but also from our inner selves, we will face sides o´ ourselves that we didn't know we had. T'is why we must keep together at all cost´s. Me ma and pa died in the first war and in their last letter they wrote that war never makes a pony strong it only breaks one." The orange mare looked sad.

"I´m with Applejack Rarity fell in, our friendship will be tested in these terrible times but we must keep together at all costs."

"Agreed they all said."

"Girls I need you to bring only the most important stuff and your pets to my house in a hour, okay."

"Okay." Everypony answered.

"Why our pets sugarcube?" Applejack asked.

"Everypony except you at least Applejack."

"But why?"

"We will need somepony to take care of our pets while we are gone and I have found a perfect pet sitter." AJ I guess your family can watch Winona?"

"Sure can do sugarcube."

"Perfect, then we meet at my house in a hour."
