The Fan Six Chronicles: The Elements Reborn
"She's gone!"
"What do you mean she's gone?"
"Princess Celestia is gone!"
It was still night time in Equestria, and it wasn't supposed to be. The sun should have rose over several hours ago, but it never did. It caused lots of pandemonium over the whole world.
In Canterlot, in the Royal Sister's castle, thing were even worse. Guard's were searching everywhere, but no one found her.
Celestia's younger sister, Princess Luna, was sitting on her throne terrified. Celestia has NEVER forgotten to raise the sun before, something really bad must have really happened for her not to do her royal duties.
The guards returned to Luna, looking very distressed.
"Did you find her?" Luna asked nervously.
The guards shook their heads, "No trace of her...not even a clue..." the first guard said.
"We looked in the castle, in the city, everywhere...she's gone..." the second guard chimed in.
The third guard sighed, "We will begin a search party as soon as you give the orders..."
Luna was silent for a moment, "I shall raise the sun...alert Princess Twilight and Princess Cadence immediately, tell them to hurry to Canterlot as soon as they can..." Luna then sighed shakily, "Then...begin the search...."
The guard saluted, "Yes ma'am!" they shouted in unison. They then spread out to do their duties, leaving Luna alone with her thoughts.
___________________________________________________________________________________________
Luna walked slowly to Celestia's balcony and looked down at the many ponies out on the streets of Canterlot, she then with a heavy heart lowered the moon and rose the sun. "Sister...where are you...? she asked the sky in a hushed tone expecting an answer, but she got none.
Soon Cadence and Twilight arrived, looking like they had been jostled from their beds. "Luna! What's wrong? Where's Celestia?" Twilight asked in a panicked tone as she rushed to the balcony.
Luna didn't turn to face the younger princess, "She's gone missing..."
"Oh sweet Celestia NO!" Twilight exclaimed, her eyes widened with pure fear.
Cadence gasped, "I-Is there a search party? Are there any clues yet?"
Luna shook her head, "No...nothing..."
"I-Is there anything we can do?" Twilight asked frantically.
"No...not you Twilight...you will have to stay out of this..." Luna told her.
Twilight gasped, "How in the name of the Equestria can I stay out of this? Celestia is my mentor!" she became enraged and began to breathe heavily, "I need to find her!"
Cadence put a hoof on Twilight's shoulder, "Take it easy Twilight...we will find her ourselves...you need to take over Celestia's duties until we find her..."
"Why can't Luna take her duties?"
"Because, although I can lower the sun, I cannot raise it...only lower it..." Luna explained, "The weight of the sun is too great for me to lift..."
Twilight huffed angrily, "And you think I can lift the sun? I just found my title! I'm the Princess of Friendship, NOT the Princess of the Sun!"
Luna sighed, "I will show you how to do so...you still have Alicorn magic from the fight with Tierek...when we gave you our magic...our magic became yours...though we regained our magic...your magic still was fused with the magic we gave you..."
"So...you are saying...I still have the magic the three of you gave me?"
"Yes...I know it seems odd, but I know you still have the magic...I can sense it...please..." Luna was on the verge of tears, "For Equestria..."
Twilight pointed to Cadence, "Why can't Cadence do it? She has more experience then I do!"
Cadence sighed, "Although that is true...I have my own kingdom to rule...I can't raise the sun from the Crystal Palace..."
"Ugh...o-okay...I'll do Celestia's duties until we find her..." Twilight sighed, "But I have to do something first..." she then teleported to her kingdom in Ponyville.
______________________________________________________________________________________________
"Spike! Get me Sunset Shimmer's special book and prepare the mirror!" Twilight ordered as she entered her brand new library.
Spike groaned a bit, as he was just getting out of bed. He did what he was told and went back to bed.
Twilight smiled a bit, "Thank you Spike..." she then started up the mirror and to her relief it worked, "Tell the girls I will return..." she then jumped through the mirror.
The minute Twilight entered the strange human world, she saw Sunset Shimmer sitting on the steps of Canterlot High reading a textbook. Twilight rushed over to her, "Sunset!"
Sunset looked up and gasped in shock, "Twilight? What are you doing here?"
"I need you to come back to Equestria...something really bad happened..." Twilight explained.
Sunset's eyes widened and gained a sense of fear, "Oh gosh...what happened?"
"Celestia has gone missing...we are looking for her, but signs are bleak..." Twilight explained sadly, "I need to take over her duties..."
"Oh my..." Sunset sat back down on the concrete steps breathless, "T-Thank you tell for telling me..."
Twilight sighed, "I'm not finished...If Celestia has disappeared...there's no doubt that I might too...so...I need someone to take my place if I...you know..."
Sunset sighed, "I know...I'd be honored to be your heir..."
"Thank you..." Twilight dipped her head in respect, "Let's go..."
With that, Twilight and Sunset all left to Equestria.
______________________________________________________________________________________________
Days turned to weeks as everyone searched for Princess Celestia. They left no rock unturned, nopony slept for weeks. Eventually, though they were reluctant, they called off the search, and Luna had to say those three dreaded words.
"Celestia is dead..."
Nopony was joyful for months. Luna spiraled into depression, Twilight was now fully trained and capable of raising the sun, and Sunset was being trained to raise the sun and was turned into an alicorn because of the type magic she was mastering.
Ponies all around the world were growing anxious and somewhat angry. They were fearful that they too were going to go missing too, and they were angry that they never found their princess. Some even became vengeful and were determined to find what or who caused all of this chaos.
At first, everyone suspected Discord. But their suspicions were pushed aside when Fluttershy vouched for him, claiming he was with her the whole day. Then Trixie was blamed, but then Twilight defended her, asking why she would want Celestia off the throne. The ponies of Equestria blamed almost every villain that threatened their world at one point or another. It wasn't until Princess Twilight, Cadence, and the Mane 5 all went missing over the course of one week, that everypony blamed Luna, even Sunset Shimmer blamed her.
But there was a group that believed Luna was innocent, that was the New Lunar Republic. The New Lunar Republic was always just a bunch of small groups all over the world, they were nocturnal ponies and were proud of it. They were never violent, but they were always quick to defend their princess, especially in this case.
This clashing with the New Lunar Republic and the other ponies caused actual fights to break out, many ponies were severely injured as a result. Luna was constantly stressed and scared, everything was coming down on her. This lasted a total of 3 years before Luna had enough and wrote a decree:
__________________________________________________________________________________________
My Fateful Subjects,
Due to all the fights and violence, I hereby decree, that the world will be split into two monarchies… Those who believe that I am not innocent, will be a part of what is now known as the Solar Empire... They will be required to sleep during the night, and stay out during the day. They will be ruled by none other then Sunset Shimmer and be required to carry ID at all times to prove you are a part of the Solar Empire... Those that do not have an ID, will be assumed to be a part of the New Lunar Republic. Their curfew will begin at sundown, and will not be aloud outside without a valid reason and ID. You will not be allowed to associate yourself with the New Lunar Republic, you are not allowed on their land for any reason. If caught her on their land, regardless of day or night, they will be forced to pay a heavy fine and be put in the dungeon of the New Lunar Republic.
Those who believe I am innocent will be relocated to a huge patch of land outside of Canterlot And will be a part of the New Lunar Republic... You will stay up during the night, and sleep during the day, your curfew will end at sunrise and to begin at sunset... And will not be allowed out without a valid reason and proof of that reason...You are not required to carry an ID, but you are not allowed in the Solar Empire regardless of reason. Stepping onto their land will result in a heavy fine and being placed in the Solar Empire dungeon.
There will be no fighting with the other side. Doing so will resort in a heavy fine and being placed in the dungeon that they have threatened, as well as a severe punishment from your ruler. Fillies and colts younger than 6 years of age will not be subjected to any of these rules other then the curfew, and the same goes to stallions and mares over the age of 80 years of age...
Reoccurring violations will resort to a life sentence in the dungeon that threatened with no chance of a way out...
There will be no crashing of celebrations i.e Summer Sun Celebration, Winter Moon Celebration, Winter Wrap-Up, Royal coronations, weddings, birthdays, and funerals, doing so will result in a severe punishment...
If you wish to switch to the other side, you will have to go through a process of getting an ID or the shredding your ID as well as background checks as well as a physical. Once you switch over to the other side, you cannot switch back without a valid reason and background check, if you keep switching sides, inevitably, you will not be allowed to switch back.
Please have your decision made up by the Summer Sun Celebration, if you do not… We will make a decision for you...
Your Loving Princesses,
Princess Luna and Sunset Shimmer,
________________________________________________________________________________________
The Summer Sun Celebration was not a happy occasion this year, it didn't even qualify as a celebration. Everypony was put into their respected groups, the Solar Empire stayed where they had been living their whole lives. The Lunar Republic was relocated to a huge patch of land away from Canterlot and Ponyville, where the monarchy would live in peace.
Luna then moved into her old castle, the one that existed when she turned into Nightmare Moon, she had it renovated, and she sat on the throne. But it was not the same, she needed a successor, so she began to search for a long time...when she finally found a successor, she was finally at peace. And the two monarchies lived in peace for 30 years, until now… That's where our story begins...

The Fan Six Chronicles: The Elements Reborn
Chapter One: Inkwell's New Assignment
The moon was shining brightly in the calm clear night, in the Moonlight Castle (formally the ancient castle of the Royal Sisters,) a blue unicorn with a long brown mane and round glasses covering her spindrift eyes was sitting at an oak table in a huge library. Her cutie mark was a quill that was blue of a different shade with 3 squiggles in rows as if the quill wrote on her flank. The unicorn had a notebook open in front of her with blank pages, she rested her head on her left hoof that propped her up, her eyes dull with boredom.
A baby hedgehog, no bigger then a toy mouse, scurried across the table and sniffed the paper with curiosity. He yawned, scurried to the blue and brown unicorn's left hoof and nuzzles it with a squeak.
The unicorn glanced over at the spiky animal and her dull expression somewhat disappeared with a faint smile. With her right hoof, the unicorn patted the hedgehog's tiny head ever so lightly. "Thanks for the support Quinny..." she murmured, "I just can't come up with the right ideas..."
A sneeze was Quinn's response.
The unicorn frowned and looked back at the blank notebook in front of her, "Ah...I hate writer's block...it's just as bad as artist's block..." she put her head down on top of the note book and growled in a frustrated manner, "My last book was published two months ago! Everyone is expecting something from me, and I can't give it to them!"
"Oh dear...Inkwell, are you alright?"
Immediately, Inkwell sat straight up and whirled around to see none other than Princess Luna. Inkwell then bowed in respect, "Princess Luna! I-I wasn't expecting you!"
Luna smiled, "Rise my fateful protégé, I have a new assignment that only you can do for me."
Inkwell then stood up, picking Quinn with her magic, (A spindrift color aura), and put him on her back, "Yes Princess?"
Luna sat down, "Do you know the big celebration coming up?"
"The 30th anniversary of the New Lunar Republic becoming a monarchy?"
"That's right," Luna said with a nod, "And you are a writer...correct?"
Inkwell nodded, "Yes?" she frowned, "What's this about princess?"
"As you know, the New Lunar Republic was lasted for centuries...but this celebration is for the day we as republic became a monarchy..." she stood up and began to walk to her throne room, "I would like you to write a short book on the celebration based on your experience..."
Inkwell gasped as her eyes widened, "Are you serious?"
"Yes! I'm going to send you to the 1st squad of our own military, they are actually lending a hoof in the celebration!" Luna exclaimed.
Inkwell was elated at first, "I don't know what to say!" but her elation faded and was replaced with doubt, "But..."
Luna frowned, "But what?"
Inkwell's ears lowered, "Where do I begin?" she walked over to the nearest window and glanced up at the bright moon, "First off, the 1st squad is extremely private! They don't exactly give clearance to their headquarters to anyone..."
Luna nodded, "I understand, you needn't worry, I used my royal power to get you in...they know who you are."
"There is also the matter of finding a good publisher and illustrator, since my usual publisher and illustrator are on vacation at the Moonlight Tropical Resort." Inkwell told her mentor.
"I have sent word to the greatest artist and publisher in Moonville, you do know where that is, don't you?" Luna asked.
Inkwell nodded, "Of course, Moonville is 1 mile away from Everfree City, I can walk there in my sleep...but..."
"But what?"
"My final concern, what if...the Solar Empire try to...crash the celebration...? I mean, maybe it's just me...but...hasn't Princess Sunset gotten a bit more...aggressive since the last battle?"
Luna then sighed, "Even though me and Sunset Shimmer set up rules all those years ago...they still get broken constantly..." she walked over to the same window and stared out into the vast moonlit city, "I wish my sister was here...she would know what to do..."
Inkwell glanced at her princess, "I never knew Celestia...but I know this...she believed in you...in a way...she still does...she knows you can do this...and she's always there beside you...even if you can't see her..."
Luna looked back at Inkwell, smiling with tears in her eyes, "Yes...I do believe you are correct Ink..."
Inkwell smiled back, "It's true..." she looked over to the entrance of the castle, "Now...I do believe I must get going...there is a story to be written!"
"Right right..." Luna handed Inkwell a map with an address, "Go to this address in Moonville, you'll be staying there during your assignment..."
Inkwell trotted to the door and dashed off into the calm clear night...

The Fan Six Chronicles: The Elements Reborn
Chapter Two: Cerulean Sketch
***
In the dark of the night, Inkwell walked a mile without rest, with Quinn riding on her back. The only light to show the way was the moon and the stars, gleaming brightly against the night. Inkwell passed through the Everfree Forest, several barren fields, and finally reached the town of Moonville.
Oh it's not like Inkwell hadn't been here before. In fact, her being a traveling writer, she's visited this quiet little town before. So, she knew her way through the town, and found the house with the address in a matter of minutes.
Moonville was a quiet and gentle town, filled with ponies of different colors, shapes, and sizes. Exactly like Ponyville, only in the night, very strange.
Inkwell as walked through town, many ponies glanced at her, as if she was some sort of celebrity. But she wasn't, she was far from one. So she was doing her best to avoid their stares.
After a finding the address, Inkwell marveled at the nice little house made of wood with a nice finish, the roof made of polished oak that was painted a dark red, almost crimson. The door on the house was a vivid olive green, and on the concrete steps laid a large orange WELCOME mat. It was truly a nice house.
After a few minutes, Inkwell snapped out of the trance like state she was in and knocked on the door.
There was a loud barking noise, coming from a dog obviously. A pegasus answered the door, a blue pegasus with a black mane and a grey hoodie answered the door. "Hello?"
Inkwell smiled and bowed politely, "Good evening, My name is Inkwell Blue-Quill, I was sent by Princess Luna to notify you that I will require your assistance for my newest book."
The pegasus' wide brown eyes widened, "Oh yeah! Princess Luna sent me a letter yesterday!" he stepped aside, "Come in!"
The minute Inkwell stepped inside, her jaw dropped. The room she was in was practically a professional art studio! On the right side of the room in the very corner, stood a full blown animation studio with stills and a professional camera. On the right corner of the room, there was an art easel near a window letting in the moonlight with a few cans of paint by its left side and a green couch on it's right side. In the back of room, there was a bed. On the left side wall, there was a door leading to a small kitchen. It was a nice house inside and out.
"Woah..." Inkwell exclaimed, her spindrift eyes sparkling with wonder.
The pegasus shut the door behind him, "Heh, S-Sorry it's a tight squeeze..." he chuckled a bit, "But it's very homey when you get used to it..."
Inkwell looked back at him, "Are you kidding? I have never seen such an impressive art studio! Not even my work space is this professional!"
"Thank you..." the pegasus beamed with pride as he extended his hoof, "Oh, I'm Cerulean, Cerulean Sketch!"
Inkwell shook his hoof, "Pleasure to meet you- wait...your name is Cerulean Sketch?"
"Yeah?"
"We've met before!"
Cerulean looked at Inkwell puzzled, "We...have? I think I would remember meeting a writer like you."
"I think it was before I discovered my talent..." Inkwell recalled, "I went into the arts and craft store here in Moonville, your dog jumped at me, Harley was her name right?"
Cerulean gasped, "Come to think of it...I do remember now! Wait? So your name is Inkwell? You got your memory back? AND a cutie mark too!"
"Heh yeah...hey, you've gotten taller now!" Inkwell pointed out.
Cerulean chuckled, "Thanks...!"
Suddenly a German Shepard barked behind Cerulean, obviously noticing Quinn on Inkwell's back. Quinn jumped down from her master's back and scurried up to Harley and sniffed her nose and let out a squeak. Harley then licked Quinn's face. Quinn then sneezed and squeaked once more, Harley's tail began to wag.
Cerulean laughed, "That's a hedgehog Harley."
Harley then barked happily, practically running around in a circle. Quinn then seemed to roll his eyes, he was just a hedgehog.
Inkwell giggled, "You got a lovely German Shepard!"
"Heh, thanks, I've had her for a while..." Cerulean then sat down and patted his dog's head lightly, and in return Harley licked his face. Cerulean chuckled, "Easy girl," he glanced at Quinn, "And you have the cutest hedgehog I have ever seen!"
Inkwell picked Quinn up and grinned, "Thanks!" suddenly something caught her eye on one of the animation stills. It was the a sketch of Justice League, the whole league. The picture was finely detailed for a sketch, and it seemed to still be in the line art stage. "This is beautiful!" Inkwell breathed, "Are you one of the comic book artists at DC or something?"
"Heh, thanks, and no I'm not an artist at DC...I really wish I was though...if it weren't for the fact that I like other comic companies like Marvel...Archie too...not that Betty and Veronica...Sonic..." Cerulean stated, pride welling up in his chest.
Inkwell's eyes widened, "You like Marvel and Archie?"
"Yeah?"
"Me too!"
Cerulean grinned, "Awesome!"
Suddenly, the door knocked. Cerulean went to the door and answered it, "Hello?"
