Alone in Equestria

I stopped in my tracks. A spark of hope flooded through my whole body, was it really her? I mean, I saw her die at Sweet Apple Acres, Applejack and Big Mac died trying to protect the Cutie Mark Crusaders. I rush back to the table, using my magic as a transmitter so she could hear me too.

"APPLEJACK! I HEAR YOU! THIS IS TWILIGHT SPARKLE!!" I felt my emotions erupt as shouted at the radio. There was a short silence.

"Tw-Twilight?! Girls! It's Twilight! Get over here!" Her voice seemed to drown out as she called. 'Girls?' Are they alive too?! Applejack I saw die saving the CMC, Rainbow Dash died with The Wonderbolts, she and Soarin shared a kiss in their dying moments. Fluttershy died showing her true colours, attempting to save the animals of the Everfree Forest with Zecora. Pinkie perished saving the Cake family. Rarity simply stood up to her demise. But eventually, I heard the voices that I thought were forever gone.

"TWILIGHT!? WHERE THE HAY ARE YOU!?" Rainbow Dash, she sounded like she was the on the brink of tears, yet arrogance lingered in her voice.

"Rainbow Dash! I should be asking you girls the same question! Also, how the buck did manage to contact me?!" There was a grunt of pain, Rarity? She doesn't even know the basics of magic, let alone methods of contact. Where exactly were they? I've scanned the whole of Equestria for other ponies before, and nothing came up! How are they alive?

"Twilight, We have not got the time to chit chat." Rarity finally managed to talk to me, though pain and strain filled her tone.

"Right, Right. Okay. Where are you exactly?" I finally got my nerves together, maybe now I'll be able to find out where they are, and how to defeat Discord.

"Twilight, We're....Ground....Vortex..." Not now! The radio can't die now! I try using my magic to boost the radio's signal and power.

"I didn't get that Dash. Where are you?!"

"We're underground! The vortex over Discord's castle creates a barrier that you cannot get through! You need to get sentenced here, or find another way!" OF COURSE! The vortex wasn't creating chaos! It was holding every pony in Equestria!

"Girls... Are the princesses still there?" The awnser I recieved I could not have prepared for, something that simply made me cry.

"Twilight... Celestia and Luna really were... mudered. We were there..." That settled it. I was going to break into Canterlot, save my friends, and take Discord down. He will pay for what he's done, and for Chrysalis? She won't have need to feed off of love anymore, because she'll be dead.

"HORSEAPPLES! Look Twi, We're gonna have to go! Don't let us dow-" Applejack's voice cut out, and was soon replaced by static. My initial reaction was to begin packing and planning, but when you're against the King of Chaos, well, planning is futile. Bursting out of the door, venturing into a fight I may not return from, carrying only The Elements of Harmony, which were now grey, void of all colour.

"I'm coming for you Discord, be ready to die."
