Crimson Night

“Here's the second one now...Brace yourself, when it reaches your leg it will hurt.” Zecora said as she hooked up the second blood pack. Twilight nodded. They watched as her side closed up completely and her breathing came out clear and silent. The pain that struck her seemed to be like a bull tackling her, she convulsed as her leg burned in agony. She, and the others, watched in gross wonder as the bone slowly creeped forward, growing at a slow pace, and the flesh, ligaments, muscles and everything else slowly creeped behind. It stopped about an eighth of the way down.

“Damn that hurt almost as much as when it happened!” Twilight hissed.

“I know Twilight, but you did ask for it.” Zecora said. There was a knock and Celestia let in the rest of Twilight's team.

“Hey guys...” Twilight wheezed, the pain still evident.

“Hey. How you feeling?” Vayne asked.

“Oh good. Kind of regenerating a leg but yeah, fine.” Twilight said. Vlad laughed at that and the others chuckled.

“So I worked all night, but I fixed it all. I got some enchantments from Hecarim and Luna so it's stronger, lighter and it has the friendly fire enchantment.” Vayne said, putting the helmet of Twilight's armor on the table.

“Thank you so much...I was afraid it was done for.” Twilight said. “What of Moon?” she continued.

“It was left on the field, we did not think to grab it in our haste.” Hecarim said.

“Oh wait...” Twilight said. Her horn glowed black for a second and the Scythe seemed to warp into the room. Galio caught it before it it Celestia.

“Oops...sorry.” Twilight said weakly.

“Twilight you should not be exerting yourself so, that could have gone very wrong...” Celestia said, having gotten over the shock of nearly being skewered.

“I guess you're right. Did anypony tell my friends in Ponyville what happened?” Twilight asked.

“We told them you got hurt, but we decided your recovery would be best at your home so you are going back today. Your team and team one will be sent ahead of us while we bring you.” Luna started. “Now that we've taken care of the blood, we should be fine to move you. Teams One and Ten we will meet you there.” she continued.

“Wait can't we bandage the leg?” Hecarim asked.

“It will hamper the regeneration.” Zecora said.

“Oh...” she said. The two teams left then.

“Luna...why is Team One coming to Ponyville?” Twilight asked.

“Their town of residence was destroyed, so they are moving on to Zecora's place of residence.” Luna said as she lifted Twilight with magic. They made their way to a chariot and the three of them got in.

“We should be in attendance as well.” Chrysalis said, she and Metamorphosis flanking the Chariot as it took off.

“What do you mean?” Twilight asked.

“We are hosting the first war meeting in centuries...we have chosen Ponyville, for Canterlot cannot house the races.” Celestia explained.

“We already have the Changelings and we've nearly got the Dragons. The remaining ones would be the Griffons...we have also sent invitations to some of the more tribal races, but we do not know if they wil be there.” Luna said.

“Timber wolves...” Twilight said.

“What was that?” Luna asked.

“The Timber wolves...go to their den and tell them the Pack Savior requests their attendance.” Twilight suggested.

“Oh, I forgot about you and them. A wonderful Idea.” Luna commented.

“Where's Twilight?” Dash exclaimed when the two teams arrived in Ponyville, the other elements were lined up.

“We heard she got hurt real bad.” Applejack continued.

“Is she alive and well?” Fluttershy asked.

“She's...alive.” Hecarim answered.

“She will recover with time.” Galio continued.

“Well where is she?” Pinkie asked.

“She is on a Chariot with the princesses on their way here.” Vayne said, pointing to the spec on the horizon.

“By the way, did you guys know Ponyville was going to house the first war meeting?” Pinkie asked.

“We did. I know not how I can house my team, but we will find a way when they arrive.” Zecora said.

“We're here. Easy now.” Luna said, lifting Twilight out of the Chariot. The citizens of Ponyville all gasped in horror as they saw Twilight's state.

“It's alright Luna...I can walk.” Twilight said. Her voice was still weak, but they didn't need to strain to hear it. Indeed, twilight limped awkwardly on three legs.

“W-what happened?” Spike asked.

“I got caught in the explosion of a Ghoulified Dragon...a Wraith it was called?” Twilight asked. Celestia nodded.

“Princesses, I am sorry to inform you that delegates form most of the other races have yet to arrive, yet Town hall is already crowded. We don't have enough space.” Mayor Mare said.

“I can handle that...come on guys, follow me.” Twilight said to the two teams and limped towards the Library. “This might take some getting used to for everypony, but it's about time I made this thing bigger.” she said. She closed her eyes and her horn glowed with a massive burst of purple. Her eyes glowed white as black tinted the magic on her horn and the entire town literally expanded around the Library, which was the center of the town. There was a huge cavernous trench formed between the town and the Library, but Twilight wasn't done. The aura tripled as the Tree began to expand. All te trees in the area burst with power, gaining size and growing strange fruit. The biggest one by far, however, was the Library.

It was as big as the palace now. The Cavernous trench had not been completely filled, in fact it was still quite large, but a root fence and natural looking bridge had literally grown out of the ground. If you looked over the fence, you could see the Tree's roots taking up nearly all the gap a ways down.

“Whoa...” Everypony mumbled.

“Twilight how did you do that?” Luna asked.

“Twilight?” she asked again, walking up to the Mare. She sighed in relief. She had thought something was wrong. She was just asleep.

“That...that's amazing...it's like the size of the Palace!” Dash exclaimed.

“Well...it would seem it's a Grand Library now...the last one was in the old Canterlot...” Celestia said.

“Mayor mare, gather the delegates and send them here...apologize for the trouble that may have been caused by the change of the town...Captain, fly to the Timberwolf Den and tell them the Pack Savior requests their attendance.” Luna said, turning to Varus.

“I am familiar with their kind, I will do so my princess.” he replied.

“The rest of you may do as you please, be here tomorrow at noon for the meeting though.” Luna said.

“I will watch over her, Celestia you are needed to speak to the Delegates. Mayor, how many have arrived?” she continued.

“Well the Dragons are still here awaiting the completion. The Griffons have arrived, as well as some of the Tribal races...we have the Phantoms here and the Dryads are coming. And now apparently, Timber wolves.” the Mayor said.

“And how do you react to Twilight's change in scenery?” Celestia asked.

“I quite like it. The Library was too small in the first place and Ponyville needed and expansion. I'm glad it didn't come out of our pockets. And besides, now it fits the ones occupying it.”she started. “For all Twilight has done for this town alone, not to mention Equestria...she deserves a Library of even greater size as her own.” she continued, chuckling.

“...You make a very good point.” Luna said. “We must get her inside so she can rest...I still can't believe she did all of this in her state...” she continued.

“I'll be at town hall if you need me.” the Mayor said.
