The Living Legend

"Every parting is a form of death, as every reunion is a type of heaven."

-Tryon Edwards

The shuttle careened towards the planet at crazy speeds. Crazy as in we're never going to get out of this mess.

"In the event of a cabin decompressing, oxygen masks will lower from the ceiling. Untangling them will allow you to think of something before you die." The computer spoke.

Lightspeed looked at Luke. "That's cheerful. Get ready in two minutes. We're going to break the sound barrier."

It took four hours to suit Luke up in the Imperial space suit. It would probably also take that long to read about it. Reading is a good thing, but four hours is definitely overdoing it.

The white alicorn looked up the human. "You scared of flying now?"

"No. I'm afraid of suddenly not flying."

The shuttle hit the atmosphere, but stayed intact.

"Okay. I'll open the door in a moment. Get ready to "Klingon" to me when I do."

"What's a Klingon?"

"You won't live to see it. I happens in the next story, I checked it out on Fimfiction."

"Wait, I die?"

"Jeezus, everyone dies, you idiot. Yes, you die. Deal with it."

"But that doesn't explain the Klingon!"

"Calm down, now. It's a fourth wall thing, jeezus." After a pause, he pushed the door open. It was ripped off by the air flow. "After you, good Jedi."

Luke looked over the edge. "One. I'm not a Jedi Knight. Two. This is madness!"

A shit eating grin formed on Lightspeed's face. "THIS! IS! SPONAAAAAAAAAAA!" He bucked the human out, then jumped after him.

The two began to fall

fall. Sorry, got the idea from a Geronimo Stilton book. Very boring (little kids book our English teacher made us read) but good use of visu-

Right. Back to the story.

Lightspeed latched onto Luke, and spread his wings. "Whaaaaaaaaat did I geeeeeeeeeeeet myseeeeeeeeelf intooooooooooo!?"

"Rrrrrrrrrrr!" Luke growled. He looked down. Spread below them was a beautiful scene of the ocean meeting the desert sand, which faded to a big plain.

They began to roll, faster and faster. "Oh, you son of a bitch, I'll kill you!"

"Or can you? I'm the one that's gonna save our asses...again."

"Oh...you!"

Lightspeed began to pull out as hard as he could.  "Goddamit, you humans are heavy. Didn't I tell you to lay off the chips?"

"Just shut up and pull ou-" He was cut out because of something sticky covering his mouth.

"Duct tape: Turning stupid into "Mmph! Mmph!" The struggling hybrid gasped out. "Next time, grab a parachute."

Two humans had their binoculars pointed at the Imperial Shuttle.

"The Empire..." The one on the left spoke.

"Shit. Well, there goes the planet." The one on the right muttered.

"Luke, it's your turn!"

"My turn for what?!"

"To break my fall!"

"That's a bit far, don't you think?"

"So was the Falcon!" Lightspeed bellied in, and Luke was dragged across the ground kicking and screaming. He hit a rock, and the two tumbled for a bit before they finally stopped.

"You want to leave me? Here's your chance."

"I'm stuck with me you because I can't seem to conjure food."

"Well, I'm stuck with a damn non-magical creature who can't do shit."

"Well, I'm stuck with an arrogant bit-"

"Whoa whoa whoa." Lightspeed said, doing the time out signal. "Hold it tight!"

"Fine then. Leave me." The two split up and left both ways.

Two Minutes Later

"Aaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh!" Lightspeed screamed.

"AaaAaaaaaaaahhhhhhh!" Luke screamed.

"Roar!" The little ewok roared.

The human and the pony slammed into each other. The two hugged each other tightly. "From now on, stay together."

"Agreed."

MaC went through the little village in Paradeen using his little rover, humming a cheerful song. He noticed a crowd and turned towards it.

"Hey, what's going on?"

"An Imperial shuttle fell out of the sky. No bodies." The someone answered. Suddenly, an old woman gasped. "An alicorn!"

MaC turned to where she was pointing. It took him a moment to find words.

Standing there, was Lightspeed.

Lightspeed looked at the humans, who bowed deeply. "Um...do you happen to have any form of interstellar travel?"

The old woman looked up. "There is a massive ship above the planet right now." She pointed at MaC. "He can help you."

MaC rolled over in his six wheeled kart. "Lightspeed...is that you?"

"How do you know me?"

"It's me, Ace! Though I prefer MaC..."

"Is it really you?"

"Long story, but guess what? I'm alive!"

"Still alive..."

"Look, we don't know where we are, so were stranded here."

"Then we'll find a way out." The white alicorn said with a determined tone. "Come on. We'll start sending out distress signals now."

The two began to leave.

"Still, it's bloody good to see you, mate."

"It's hard to take you seriously with that accent."

"Come on. Equestria needs us."
