//-------------------------------------------------------// The Imagineers -by Renaissancepony923- //-------------------------------------------------------// //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 1 Chaos's Concern //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 1 Chaos's Concern Chapter 1 Chaos’s Concern Imagination, one of the most powerful magics in the cosmos, but its uses forgotten in the realm of Equestria, lost to even the most ancient of beings in the land, even the Sun Goddess herself was unknown to its power, and had gone unnoticed to every being in Equestria, every being except one, Discord, The spirit of chaos, and closes thing to the power of Imagination, was disturbed of its absence, Imagination was fundamental for the existence of Chaos, without it, nothing would be new, old trick would repeat and get bland after while, it would of sooner if he wasn’t incased in stone for a thousand years. “I must do something.” Discord thought as he hung In his thinking tree. His land of chaos started to grey more and more with each passing day without Imagination magic. His senses were dulling, there were still a couple of Imagineers in his day before he had gotten stoned by Celestia and Luna. Of coarse, the Two were a product of Imagineers, tired of his shenanigans. But, there was no denying it, the world was imbalanced, and in a way even he, Chaos incarnate didn’t like. “Wait! Ah Ha!” Discord bursted out. He remembered an alien species a while back in a distant Universe full of curiosity, which equaled… Imagination. “wait,” Discord said, “He then remembered a lack of magic in this Universe, No magic, no Imagineer. A lightbulb popped over his head which he then consumed. “Lets see…” With a snap of his hand, the element of Magic appeared before him, the harmonic radiance almost made him wretch before he got off his tree and put on his radioactive suit, more of a gag through muscle memory than protection, “this will do nicely, now the only thing left is the individual.” He then vanished in the blink of an eye. . . . Earth The Mysterious Universe Ortho Sighed, looking down at his grade, an easy A like always, Bright he was, but bored of the work he had to do, but his incentive was to do his best, no matter how easy it all was. It was disappointing how schools have fallen over the years, people were stupid, basic arithmetics were a struggle for most people, but not him, Fifteen years old, and he could match the most renown mathematician, create and sculpt things that would take the breath away from people, invent gadgets that can manipulate and calculate the known reality. Orthodox Monarch, was a genius in a stupid world full of bigots. Ortho grabbed his bag and headed out of the classroom with his teacher glaring at him like always. Mr. Gandry was an old prune who had stood with a bias toward men and woman with a greater intelligence. Ortho wasn’t going to put up with him today though. As Orthodox stepped outside, he bumped into a man who dropped  a handful of book. “So sorry lad.” The man apologized. He wore a grayish brown suit and had a white head of hair.” Ortho bent down to pick up the man’s books, who the man did the same, “Thanks Lad, Corddis by the way, Dr. Corddis.” “Orthodox, but you could call me Ortho for short.” He handed the remaining books to the man. “Orthodox huh, conforming to what is generally or traditionally accepted as right or true; established and approved. What a name that is,” Corddis said. “Exactly, finally someone who can understand.” Corddis raised an eyebrow, “Oh? do tell me what you mean boy.” “Well, you know, the lack of creativity and curiosity among mankind.” The man’s gaze turned to that of disapiontment, “Yes, that is noticeable, but you can’t really blame them can you?” Ortho was taken surprise. “Huh, Do tell.” The man looked up to the sky, a trait only few did, “The process of Evolution is a tricky thing, giving new adaptation to those that use it, and taking away the ones that aren’t used for survival.” A familiar ember of understanding came across Ortho, “What your saying is that we no longer need Human Intelligence and imagination because its no longer necessary?” Orth said. “Clever boy, yes.” He sighed. “Its too bad really, I had hope for this species.” You on the other hand, are perfect. Corddis thought. In a flash, Ortho was nowhere, literally nowhere, he found he was floating in a black abyss with Dr. Corddis, “Your exactly what I needed boy.” Ortho’s head was spinning, awe, and curiosity hit him before fear, “Are... you an Extraterrestrial?” the most likely answer. “More than you think,” Corddis said, voice changing into a more gravely voice. “I come from a Universe much different that yours, where energy is… oh, manipulated through will power. The possibility was plausible, images of beings who could shoot lightning, manipulate atoms, and construct realty was thrilling to think about. “But, we lack one thing, Creation magic straight from the Imagination itself, that’s where you come in.” A purple star shaped crystal appeared in his paw… wait, paw? Ortho looked to Corddis and saw a chimera like creature before him in the abyss. “Now since you lack magic, I’ll have to give you some. Ortho squirmed. Things went so fast, and very confusing. “consider yourself lucky, you’ll be more powerful than Princess Twilight and the other Alicorns, maybe even me.” He said as the gem dissolved into purple lightning that struck Ortho in the chest. “Oh, and don’t worry, the story will slow down after this part.” . . . The ground rumbled under ponyville, while Twilight felt a sharp snap as if a piece of her got disconnected. She got up to see a… large purple thunderstorm charged with incredible magic Ions. The citizens of ponyville started shouting and screaming. Twilights attention turned to the sound of a door bursting open with a panicked dragon, “Twi, its gone loco out there, theres…” spike trailed off as a beam of light hit the Everfree forest. Then the storm disbursed. “What, in Celestia, was that.” Spike said. Twilight was breathless, never before in Equestrian history had there been a storm of this proportion, no to mention the…unreadable magic involved, diffidently not one of the five sources of magic known to her, no, this was completely alien to her, which disturbed her the most,  “Get me a map of the Everfree spike, I need to figure this out.” Twilight started to walk out but turned, “Oh, and call the girls if you could.” “I’m sure their already on there way Twi, considering what just happened. Twilight grabbed her sextant and calculated the distance of the object. Sure enough, there was a knocking at the castle’s front doors. Expecting it to be her friends, she was surprised to greet Princess Celestia, who uncharacteristically looked extremely concerned, “Twilight! Oh, thank the divines.” Celestia said as she hugged the princess of magic. “Celestia, Whats wrong?” Twilight asked, taken aback by the sun Princesses reaction. Celestia looked right into Twilights eyes, “Twilight, I thought you had died.” Twilight froze. Celestia thought she was dead? Did Celestia feel the same thing she felt, the… snapping?” Celestia removed her fore hooves from Twilight and stared off into the Everfree, looking at the trail of smoke left by the Light beam. “I haven’t felt this magic in a long time.” Celestia finally said. Twilight then saw her friends scrambling towards her. “What in holy Celes…” Rarity began, but stopped at the sight of the one she was swearing to. “Princess Celestia! Oh my, its that extreme isn’t it.” “You mind explaining whats goin on sugar cube” asked the Apple farmer Apple Jack. All five friends looked to Twilight with concern. Celestia spoke up, “I’ll explain My little Ponies, but we better go somewhere discrete.” Twilight looked to see ponies gathering toward the castle. “I’ll Talk to them Twilight,” Celestia said, “You and your friends wait.” All six ponies went inside the castle into the map room, but all gasped at the sight of Twilights throne. A crack dead center of where Twilights cutie mark was supposed to be. “Oh my, that’s too bad dear.” Rarity said. She made it out that it was just furniture, but it was more than that, something was wrong with the element of magic. Twilight sat upon it, trying to feel its magic, but felt nothing. Celestia finally came in and too was taken aback by the state of the throne of magic. “I need to show you all something.” Celestia said. Her horn glowed and an ancient book popped up which read, the History of the Imagineers. A long time ago, in the time before ponies, existed a race of magic users named Authors, who came to this universe to create and invent. They developed many species, Dragons, griffons, ponies, and countless others, they explored the cosmos, manipulated it to there will in hope of sharing and spreading peace and happiness, these species knew them as Imagineers. One day, they all disappeared, all except six. Baolaf, the arch Imagineer and mentor to Starswirl the bearded, Arnoch the kind, Zeebow the funny, Arroh the Honest, Barrow the generous, and Tarroc the loyal. One day, the young Starswirl saw the problem, and attempted to make Imagineers with Baolafs books of magic, but all was for not, in the attempt, he created a wicked being named Discord, spirit of chaos, who sought destruction across the cosmos. Baolaf wouldn’t allow it, with his and the other Imagineers power, they created two beings with the power of all three tribes. With there powers exhausted, they died in the process of creating these god like being. But they didn’t die completely, the remaining magic in their bodies sprouted a tree, the tree of harmony. Everyone held their breath as the truth came out, of Discord, of the tree of harmony, of the Alicorns, and life itself in Equestria. Rainbow spoke up, “ So… what did these guys look like?” Celestia showed a picture in the book. Everyone leaned in to see… a hairless Ape like creature. “Oh my. How did they keep in balance?” Asked Twilight. Celestia sighed, “I wish I could tell you, but all knowledge of them has been lost for thousands of years. “But you’ve see them right?” asked Applejack. “I watched them Die in my and my sisters creation, I didn’t actually get to meet them,” said Celestia, “But Starswirl spoke fondly of his mentor and the other five.” Twilights head started aching, “I don’t get it, what does this have to do with Imagineers?” “I recognize the magic felt in the Everfree. I do not know how Twilight, but somehow, theres an Imagineer out there, somewhere. . . . Orthodox’s head throbbed as he got up from the ground. He was startled by a nearby glowing source in the shape of a tree. Suddenly he recollected the brief but unforgettable encounter with the chimera. Ortho was in a forrest, he knew that for certain, but he was confused by the glowing tree in front of him, he had an urge to touching it, like… it was calling out to him. He put his hand out and felt what seemed like a… flashback? Or instructions. Knowledge of Imagineering magic came to him, It was simple, think of it, and do it, easier than arranging atoms and manipulating electrons. He put out his hands and  flash light appeared. It was simple, instead of using the material already there, he was creating it, creating atoms and electrons and manipulating reality itself. Ortho loved the feeling, but it frightened him, otherwise he would have given himself the ability to fly out of the forest, but he was feeling afraid of destabilizing this reality doing so. So he limited himself to the flashlight. He materialized a Compass, but found that the tree gave magnetic interference. Besides, strangely, ortho didn’t feel like leaving the crystal tree, as if it wanted him to wait. He studied it, there were carvings of a moon and a sun in its trunk, which meant that there was an Intelligence on this world. Ortho then shifted his gaze toward the branches, each one hade a gem shaped  as butterfly, a diamond, an apple, a lightning bolt, and… a balloon? Ortho chuckled, if he wasn’t surrounded by a sinister looking forrest, he would have sworn that he was in some sort of kids show. His amusement was disturbed by a rustling in the under growth up ahead. Ortho asked a reluctant, “Hello?” He was expecting many things, aliens, massive carnivorous creatures, things like Dr. Corddis, but a Zebra? In a forrest, “I don’t suppose you could talk?” He asked jokingly. Yes, I can talk, But I must ask, how do you walk?” He didn’t expect it to answer, and he didn’t think that would be the first question asked of him, but he had an answer, “Well if you want to know that, it has to do with energy efficiency. The development of my species spine proved that walking upright made us faster, stronger, alert and brought forth a higher intelligence.” Ortho explained to the Zebra. “Intelligence you have demonstrated very well, but how did you come to be here creature, do tell?” Ortho explained the story of his world and the chimera creature who called himself Corddis who brought him here to this world to put it back in balance somewhat. The Zebra nodded and said, “It is getting very late, the forrest you may have to vacate.” She said, “Perhaps you should come with me to ponyville, there I have friend that can help you they will.” “Ponyville? Is this place inhabited by sapient Equine?” Orthodox asked. “Indeed, we must now proceed.” The two continued onwards, until they heard screaming in the distance alongside a vicious roaring. . . . Twilight couldn’t believe it, a being with enough magic to create worlds and life itself… was in the Everfree Forest. A being that doesn’t just manipulate reality, but creates it, and now, they have to look for it. Celestia told the six that these… Authors were a mostly benevolent species, but the Idea of one creature with more magic than all  of the unicorns in the world was unnerving to them all. “I’m not afraid of this author.” Rainbow said trying to look tough. The others didn’t care though, the Idea of meeting this being was unsettling, even to Pinkie Pie. But like usual, she just put on a smile and marched forward into the everfree. “Hey Twilight?,” Pinkie asked in her usual pinkie pie manor, “What would be an Ideal place to look first?” Twilight smiled at the Party pony’s cheer, “Well Pinkie, Iv’e calculated the blast radius and diameter and put it down on this map.” Twilight said as she took out the map.” Pinkie studied it, “Hmm, isn’t that where the Tree of harmony is supposed to be?” Twilight looked at the map and her heart stopped at the realization. “Sweet mother of Celestia!!!” Yelled Twilight. “Girls, gather around me!” Everypony looked confused. “Ugh, If I’ve known that it was a place I’ve been to I would have already teleport us there already.” “Ohh” Everypony said in unison. Then gathered around her. Twilight cheeked to make sure they were in range and poof. They were off. //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 2 Ponies, Fenrir wolves, and Manticores oh my //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 2 Ponies, Fenrir wolves, and Manticores oh my Chapter 2 Ponies, Fenrir wolves, and Manticores oh my. Twilight and the gang opened there eyes expecting to be by the Tree, but instead, they were in pitch blackness. “Twilight dear, I don’t think were by the tree.” Rarity said. Rainbow rolled her eyes even if no one could see, “No kidding Captain Obvious.” Twilight and the group froze at the sound of snoring. She lit up he horn and they all gasped at the massive wolves. “W..we better be quiet girls, t..these are..” Twilight gulped, “ Fenrir cubs.” Applejack walked gingerly back, “I-if these are the cubs, t-then where are…” Glowing yellow eyes opened up. Rarity screamed. “Girls, move!” twilight yelled. They all ran toward the nearest source of light that they hoped was an entrance. Luckily it was, but now the forty foot wolves were chasing them all. They ran into the bushes and trees in hope that it would slow them down, but as fate would have it, they ran into a manticore nest, now they had three angry manticores chasing them alongside Fenrir wolves. The six ran until they were cornered against a cliff. “Twilight! Do something,” Rainbow yelled from above with fluttershy who were lucky enough to fly, Twilight on the other hand, wings were shaking so hard she couldn’t get lift, not to mention her failure in the use of her magic, er horn just glitches out of control. I seemed the end was near for four of the six ponies. But suddenly, all of the creatures were lifted off of the ground in a white aura. . . . Zecora and Orthodox ran as fast as they could to the source of the screaming, they ran to see four neon color ponies cornered by Giant wolves and manticores. Ortho didn’t know what it was, but a voice in his head told his to ‘Save them’ He put out his hands and thought of lifting them. Zecora looked at him weirdly with a frightened expression, “We have to help them, their my friends we…”she stopped in surprise. His hands glowed white as he lifted the beast up off the ground. The Ponies gasped and looked to his direction in surprise, he was pretty surprised as well. Uh oh he thought, he couldn’t hold them forever, Ortho had to do something to prevent them from harming the ponies. The ponies just stared at the spectacle before them instead of running, which made Ortho groan. But Ortho suddenly got an Idea. It surprised him how free form this was, the manipulation of reality bending to his will so easily, he would have to be careful. He shot a rainbow colored beam from his hands that engulfed the creatures and turned them into kittens. Flying  Pegasi which he didn’t notice flew down toward the other as Ortho gently put down the Kittens. Well, one of them wen’t to see their friends, the other flew down towards the kittens. “oh, my friends” Zecora said as she turned turned to me, “thank you for stopping them from meeting their ends.” “Your welcome,” I said as I sighed, “Its been a long day.” Zecora nodded, “Indeed it has been, Now let greet my friends.” They both walked together down the slope to the ponies. As ortho came down, he noticed they looked ver uneasy at his presents, “What the heck.” He said to them, “You could have gotten yourselves killed, why didn’t you run when I lifted them?” They just stood there transfixed by him except the purple one, she looked really messed up. Zecora spoke up, “Don’t worry, my friend here is just concerned about your safety and lack of hurrying.” Twilight spoke up, “Z-z-zecora, do you even know who this is?” the purple one asked. Something seemed to be wrong with her. “Hmm?” Pinkie came up, “Yep, Princess Celestia said that he’s something called a Imagineer thingy thing that can create universes and life itself even. Ehh!” She Looked to me. “Canyoumakeanicecreamplanetwithgumballtreesandlolipopswithrainbowjellybeansandcottencandyeoplewhocanmakemarshmello…” Sh was cut off with a loud “Pinkie!” from Twilight. Twilight came closer to me, “Uh… Hello, I’m Twilight Sparkle…uh, please to meet you.” She held out her hoof. Ortho grabbed and shook it, “Uh, Hi, my name is Orthodox, I’m from another universe on a world named Earth, pleasure to meet you.” She was a little hesitant by that answer but took it. Something was very off about her, her unicorn horn seemed to act up and it was clearly affecting her.  The other Unicorn with the white coat and purple hair came up. Ortho wondered now that the ancient of his race knew about this place considering the accuracy of the mythical creatures in this place. “My Name is Rarity Bell, but you could call me Rarity. And thanks for saving us. The yellow Pegasus came up shyly with all of the kittens in her handbag she was carrying along , “uhm, h hello, i-I’m Fluttershy.” With that she backed behind her friends. The orange coated came next, “Uh, howdy, name’s  Applejack, pleased to meet you.” She shook his hand but looked a little disturbed by his digits an backed away. Next came the blue pegasi, “Rainbow Dash at your service,” she saluted. Applejack face Hoofed. “And of coarse, Pinkie Pie.” Said the pink one. Ortho looked towards Twilight. “So your Twilight Sparkle.” “You’ve heard of me?” Twilight said questionably, still looking no better Ortho nodded his head, “Yeah, that Chimera guy with the horse head who brought me here, called himself Corddis. Said that this world was imbalanced due to the lack of Creation magic.” Twilight thought to herself, “The description sounds like… Discord, but…” “But what Twilight?” asked Fluttershy. Twilight thought for another moment, “Why would Discord try to put the world back in balance. It doesn’t make sense. Unless he’s trying to make up for the time he betrayed us with Tirak. Hmm.” “Twilight? Shouldn’t we bring him back? With his permission of coarse?” Fluttershy looked up to Ortho. “Sure I’ll come to Ponyville, I’m actually fascinated with you ponies. I would like to study your physiology, genealogy, and even figuring out how you manipulate this worlds energy and matter.” Rainbow looked at you funny then turned to Twilight, “uh, translate egg head for me Twlight.” Twilight sighed, “He wants to figure out what makes us go!,” she said in a grumpy manor. “Wow, chill out, okay, so what would you do. Ortho?” Rainbow asked. Ortho smirked. “Well, I would have to take blood samples, get an understanding of bone structure, not to mention the…” Ortho was cut off. “Okay, okay” Rainbow interjected, “Hey Twi, you want to cheek up on the tree before we go back?” “That’s a good Idea Rainbow.” Twilight sighed Rarity looked strangely toward Twilight, “You okay dear? You look very sick, and you’ve haven’t been acting right since you’ve teleported us all.” “I’m fine Rarity.” Twilight said, but even she didn’t look sure. The group started walking towards the direction Zecora and Ortho were originally. As the tree got clearer in sight, the six neon colored ponies gasped. “Where’s the element of magic!?” asked Rarity. Twilight ran for the tree, “It’s gone.” She said in sorrow, “This must have been that feeling me and Celestia felt.” A chill ran down Orthodox’s neck, and apparently every pony else’s. A familiar voice came down from out of the blue. “Oh boo hoo, this is the thanks I get?” Discord said as he appeared, “Can’t you see that I’m trying to help you all?” Twilight looked like she was about to snap, “That element was apart of me Discord,” She said as she gritted her teeth. Ortho and even the other ponies looked disturbed by Twilight’s reaction, even Discord looked taken aback. “It was necessary,” Discord claimed. A dark glimmer crossed Twilights face, “Necessary! Necessary!” Twilight grabbed Discord with her magic, darkness clouded her face “I felt like I’m being ripped apart each second that I’m not connected to it!” Discord started squirming, unused to being held hostage. Fluttershy came in, “Twilight! Stop thi…” she was cut off. “Shut up Fluttershy!” Twilight screamed. Fluttershy stepped back in surprise and fear. Discord got mad, “Leave her out of this! I admit I didn’t think things through, but friends make mistakes.” Twilight nearly laughed, “Mistakes, Oh I’m done with your mistakes Discord.” A giant spike made of magic appeared. Every pony was utterly shocked, Fluttershy was crying. Discord now had fear in his eyes. “Twilight, stop this nonsense.” Ortho commanded. He didn’t know her for very long, but he could tell that this wasn’t her, and that she wasn’t acting right.. She stared at him with a deep hate, then turned back to Discord, “I hate yo..” She was cut off by the blast of magic Ortho shot at her. She got up, “You are going to wish you hadn’t done that,” She now had a crazy in her eyes. Discord teleported by Fluttershy now that he was free of Twilights grip. A massive wall of magic started tumbling towards him, time seemed to slow down, literally. He needed to think. He could easily jump out of the way, but the other ponies would be hit. Shield,  the voice in his head told him. He bent down to one knee and spread a shield bubble around his friends. The ponies were shouting to Twilight to stop, but she wouldn’t. Ortho was mad, he had power, and now he was going to use it, and he knew just the way to do it.” . . . Twilight’s rage and pain could have torn down mountain. She was going to shoot another blast when she got surrounded by darkness. ‘Your powerless’, a voice whispered in her ear. “Who”s there.” Twilight asked as she looked around. ‘I can see your greatest fear.’ “Ortho?” her heart turned to ice. Images of her beating Cadence at her wedding appeared… only she didn’t stop, she wouldn’t believe Cadence, she kept hitting her. “No, no, stop, Please. The the other twilight looked up to her, ‘Do you want to hurt other ponies?’ “No, of coarse not.” Twilight said. The Image disappeared, and suddenly Tirek was before her, ‘Were your lessons on friendship so meaningless that you would throw them away from losing your element?’ Tirek asked, then vanished. “I-I..I” Twilight stammered, as she backed away, no longer angry but scared. Voices of her friends screaming in agony filled her head, ‘You were about to willingly destroy your friends in your anger.’ “No…no, I-I wouldn’t hurt them.” ‘But you did.’  Ortho’s voice echoed. ‘You betrayed their trust in you, committed treason to Equestria!” Celestia then appeared, “I had so much faith in you Twilight, Equestria had faith in you.’ “Celestia, no, Please.” Twilight pleaded as Celestia disappeared as Ortho appeared, “I understand now.” He said as he petted the Pony. “The Element Discord gave me was apart of you. But, unfortunately, its now bounded with me forever. I didn’t know what to expect when I got here, it happened so fast and very suddenly, I didn’t know what to do. I was afraid of accidentally breaking this world rather than helping it or that the inhabitants wouldn’t except me. I’ve gone inside your head Twilight, your magic is tainted.” Tears weld in Twilights eyes, “No… it can’t be.” Orthodox stared at her… only it wasn’t Orthodox, it was an older man in robes. “Twilight, understand that if you use your magic, you will go mad.” Baolaf said. Twilight looked at him, tears streaming from her eyes, “Magic is my life, my special talent, I’ll never be whole for the rest of Eternity.” Baolaf sighed, “You have until the end of time Twilight, you will outlive the taint.” Hope sparkled in her eyes, “It will go away?” she asked. Baolaf nodded, “In fifty years time Twilight, the taint will disappear. Ortho appeared, “You will get through this Twilight, I know it.” //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 3 Friends thicker than glue, and betrayal from long ago //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 3 Friends thicker than glue, and betrayal from long ago Chapter Three Friends thicker than glue, and betrayals from long ago Twilight woke up with all of her friends surrounding her looking very concerned, while Rainbow Dash and Orthodox were arguing. Twilight groaned, “Ugh, I’m definitely feeling that tomorrow.” She got up. Rainbow Dash stopped arguing with Ortho and everypony grouped hugged her “We were so worried darling,” Rarity said. Twilight looked at them all, “You forgive me? Even after I hurt you, tried to hurt Discord?” She looked for the embodiment of chaos but he was nowhere to found, neither Fluttershy. “Of coarse dear, we are friends aren’t we.” Rarity said. Apple Jack came up, “And besides sugar cube, Orthodox told us about that Taint in your magic's due to the severing of your element.” Twilight then asked, “Where’s Fluttershy and Discord?” “Well…” Rainbow started off, “After you fell unconscious, Discord grabbed Fluttershy and teleported who knows where. Said he needed to protect her from you.” “I’m truly sorry dear, about your magic, its a shame you won’t be able to use it for so long. You should really thank Ortho though, he was able to cleans your soul with his magic, otherwise you would still be in that state.” Twilight looked to Ortho and nodded to him. He nodded back. “We should probably get to your village,” Ortho said, “I’m tired of being in this forrest.” “Oh, Orthie, Orthie, can you teleport us back?” Pinkie asked. Ortho petted the party pony’s head, “Sorry Pinkie, but Master Baolaf says that I should limit myself with my abilities until I hone them properly.” “Master baolaf?” Questioned Rarity, “He’s been dead for thousands of years dear.” “He’s… in my subconscious rarity, an effect from the element of magic he says. he also says that it used to be a Unicorn tradition for apprentices to let their masters into their head after their deceased ” Explained Orthodox. All of the ponies shivered. “Wait, he’s really in there?” Asked Twilight Intrigue. Ortho nodded, “Yes, and he knows you very well from another life.” “Another life?” Twilight questioned. She knew that certain ponies believed in reincarnation, the belief that a pony soul enters another body after death, but most ponies didn’t talk about their spiritual senses. Twilight tried to keep out of it due to it being unprovable at this particular point of time. But this was a creator telling her this, not a preacher, “Who?” she questioned. “Starswirl the bearded. That a strange name though.” Ortho said. Twilight froze, did this… being, say she was starswirl the bearded. Of coarse, it explained everything, Discords fixation with her, Celestia’s interest in her, even why she was able to finish starswirl’s spell that lead to her Alicornhood, but she was unable to let herself believe it. She then dropped and blacked out again. Everyone stared at her. “Was it something he said,” asked Pinkie. Everyone face hoofed, and face palmed. . . . Twilights friends had to carry her the way to Ponyville. Zecora said her goodbyes and left for her hut as the pony’s and the Imagineer reached town. Of coarse they got a lot of strange looks  from the denizens of ponyville, but had faith that their town heroes knew what they were doing. A couple screamed thinking that Twilight was dead, but the ponies explained to them that she’s just knocked out. Ortho noticed that some of the Denizens were whispering to each other about him, which made him feel a little uncomfortable, but expected nothing less. He could hardly believe that its been only around eighteen hours since he’s been here when its felt like days. When they reached the castle, spike ran out to greet the six friend, only to find five, one was unconscious, and with an Imagineer from another universe. Admittedly, they all looked to be in bad shape. “You found the Imagineer; Is Twilight going to be okay?” Spike asked. “Let me tell you something,” Ortho said to the… Little lizard, who seemed to be friends with the six, “I’m guessing... you’re her friend?” “Her Number one assistant Spike the dragon, and yes, friend.” Ortho smirked, “Well think about it this way, how would  you feel to find out that you’re the incarnate of one of the greatest mages in all of Equestria, then find that you can’t use magic anymore or else you will go mad and probably destroy everyone you know?” ortho asked. Though it didn’t go in that order, it gave the message. Plus the little info from Twilight's memories helped” “I’d expect about this much of a reaction from her,” Spike said. He led the ponies and the Imagineer into the Castle tree with a waiting Celestia. “Oh my.” Celestia said as she picked Twilight up with her magic, “I will put her in her room to rest.” She said as she glanced at Ortho worriedly. “Be wary of her, young Imagineer.” Baolaf said in his mind, “She was made to take care of ponykind and will do anything to protect her ponies if she felt threatened.” Ortho nodded in understanding. he looked around in the structure and noticed it was bigger on the inside than it is on the outside, minor manipulation to the time-space continuum maybe? Bending the space time fabric might be one of the manipulations ponies are able to do. Ortho thought. “Ortho, She attempting to reach in your mind, cut her off” Ortho then felt it, the Alicorn trying to pry through his head. He shut her out as easy as a flick of a switch. She attempted again with a stronger force but went unsuccessful. She came out appearing as if she didn’t just tried to pry into his head. No going back now, she was already feeling threatened by his mere presence.” She spoke up, “I’m afraid Twilight has a taint in her magic.” Pinkie stared at her, “Yep, but we already know that, Orthie told us.” She looked to Ortho, “Did he now?” “You Highness, I would… be pleased to introduce myself, I am Orthodox Monarch, Imagineer, Human from the planet earth.” He said respectfully. “Does she really move the sun like Twilight showed us Master Baolaf?” Ortho thought the question to the consciousness living in him. “Not how you would think Ortho.” Baolaf said in his thoughts. Celestia nodded, oblivious to the time dilation. “Pleased to have make your acquaintance Orthodox.” She said. “Ponies?” Everypony looked to her. “I would like to talk to Orthodox in private if you would.” The four left with spike included. After the doors closed behind them, Celestia stared at Ortho, her horn glowing. Ortho felt her trying to get into his mind again, but resisted with ease to her attempt. She started to strain, but stopped as soon as her nose started to bleed. “Tough to crack huh, Imagineer.” She said. “You know, I understand that you were created to protect your ponies, but if I were  a threat, I wouldn’t have saved the other six, and I would probably have broken you down into the nothingness you came from.” Ortho said. The Ruler flinched but regained her posture, “How do I trust a being who hides his thoughts.” Celestia asked. “Is that what you do, pry into ponies thought so you can gain an advantage over them?” Ortho then got an Idea, he reached out his mind to her. She was taken by surprise, but started resisting to no avail. He was in her head, in a hallway, “Stop this!” She pleaded, she was hiding something. An old rustic door appeared, “No, no, no, no, no, no, no!” “Something horrible happened here.” Baolaf said as he appeared besides Ortho. Ortho opened the door into what appeared to be a… once Dragons nest. Thousands of Dragons were sprawled on the ashy ground, with Celestia leading an army of ponies. She was talking to the general when a Purple Dragon swooped down to the ground, “Celestia!” It screamed, “I trusted you!” Thirty Unicorns were on him shooting him with all of their magic, “You killed my f..family,” He said as he coughed up blood, “My mate, my sons and daughters… how could you?” Celestia glared at the Dragon, “Your flock threatened my ponies, you provided the Info I needed to take care of it.” The dragon stared at her nearly beaten down, “We were friends.” “Please, what point are friends really?” She said as she started off. Orthodox looked to Baolaf who looked very grim at this battle field. A pony soldier ran to Celestia with a… Purple egg The Purple Dragon saw the egg and tried to lung at the pony to no avail, “My… Son.” He said before dying. “Princess,” He the soldier saluted, “What do you want us to do with this?” Celestia glanced at it, “Donate it to the school for gifted Unicorns, they will know what to do with it.” The general came up, “What about all this?” he pointed to the battle field. “Make it look like a griffon or changeling attack.” Celestia ordered. “Nopony is to speak or know about this attack.” The general nodded and the memory disappeared. Ortho was out of Celestia’s mind, “How could you,” He looked to Celestia spread out on the floor sobbing. “They were Innocent!” The group obviously heard Ortho yellng and rushed through the door, shocked to see their leader on the ground sobbing. Ortho looked to spike with a pained expression, then looked to Celestia. “What in tarnation is going on Ortho!” Applejack yelled to him. He looked to Celestia. She lifted her head up with fear in her eyes. Tell them Celestia, tell them the secret you’ve been hiding from them, from spike!.” Spike flinched at the mention of his name. The ponies looked at spike then bak to Celestia with expectant gazes. “I-I was only doing my job… to protect my ponies.” She said, then looked at Spike. Her horn started glowing. “Stop her Ortho, she’s trying to use a memory wipe spell.” Baolaf warned him. What do I do? Ortho thought. “Let me take control.” . . . Baolaf knew what to do. Time froze as he took his natural shape, the old man in the blue velvet robes, He put out his hand and unfroze Celestia. She gasped at the sight of him. “I hadn’t realized the fierceness of the protective instinct we’ve given you,” He said. Celestia looked at him, fear, confusion, anger, all written on her face. “You know, me and the others took months of planning for you do defeat my students mistake, after all, we were too old to do it ourselves. We devised a way to imprint a maternal bond to your ponies and apparently made it a little strong, wouldn’t you say?” Baolaf asked, “And judging from Twilights memories, its apparently the same for your sister, which is probably why she did what she did, after all, you did take all the glory. Ortho didn’t realized  yet that the same thing could happen to you, which is why I stopped him from telling them.” “What are you going to do?” Celestia asked. Hoping he wouldn’t destroy her. The old man sighed, “What I need to. Erase everyponys  memory of you and replace them with your sister.” He said, “You will be an assistant under Orthodox for at least a century.” Baolaf told her, “He needs one anyway if he’s to create and flourish in this land I’ve work so hard on.” Celestia sighed, accepting her fate, “She won’t remember being sent to the moon?” She asked. “and Orthodox?” “As far as Luna will know, she is the soul ruler of Equestria, and has been for thousands of years.” Baolaf said, “and Ortho, I know he would never go with the plan knowing what you did, I’ll erase his memory of you too, lastly, I’ll just need to make an adjustment to you.” He picked her up and started spreading energy all over her body.” //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 4 Revised Reality //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 4 Revised Reality Chapter 4 Revised Reality Something was wrong, Ortho could feel it, like a displacement in the time-space continuum. Princess Luna appeared from one of the hallways in the castle. Ortho looked back at the ponies who were carrying Twilight inside. “Thank the stars,” Luna said as she carried Twilight off with her magic. She came back a half an hour later, “I’m not sure what I would do without her, she and all of you are considered family, it was stupid of me to let you all take this task alone." She looked to me, “So you’re the Imagineer I presume?” Luna asked. Ortho broke from his trance, “Oh, Yes… Orthodox Monarch, Imagineer and Human from the planet earth.” Ortho said, feeling a slight amount of De-ja-vu. “Planet? Oh! Are you from another star system? Can you tell me all about it,  I am  an Astronomer.” “Oh, yes, of coarse, though, you’ve probably not seen my star considering that I’m from another universe as well.” Ortho said liking this princess already. “I’ll explain that later, right now, I need to talk about Twilight.” “What about her?” Luna asked with a tone of concern in her voice. Ortho sighed, “When Discord separated the element of magic from her, somehow, a taint got inside her magic supply.” Luna had spread a large shade of concern. “It’ll be around fifty years before she will be able to use her magic, at least that’s what Baolaf tells me.” Ortho said. “Baolaf?” Luna said surprised, “Baolaf is alive? No, I saw him die in front of me, you must be mistaken.” “Well, he’s not alive per say, absorption of the element included his consciousness inside me.” “Really, may I speak with him?” Luna asked. Intrigued by the claim that her creator was inside of him. “He can’t, he says that he used to much energy trying to make Twilight sane again.” Luna looked a little disappointed, “Very well, you have done us a service Orthodox Monarch, thank you for protecting my ponies, I hope to get to know you better, as a gift, I assign you Tia, my personal assistant, she will arrive next morning to start work with you.” She extended her hoof. Ortho shook it, “I plan on working for the betterment of ponykind.” She nodded and turned to leave. “Yep, best Princess in the world.” Pinkie Pie said. Something felt off putting about this, but it felt better knowing the princess was on his side, “An assistant she said?” Ortho asked, that surly would be interesting to have, especially for some of the idea’s and project he planned to work on. “Eyup, that’s what she said.” Apple jack replied. Rainbow sighed, “When am I going to get my assistant huh? Now you, and Twilight have an assistant.” “Uh, Rainbow, What exactly do you need an assistant for?” Rainbow rolled her eyes, “I need someone to root my awesomeness all the time, don’t I” She asked in a narcissist manor. Applejack then rolled her eyes, then looked to Ortho, “We losing daylight Ortho, don’t suppose you have a place to sleep now?” Spike came up, “We have a spare room here in the castle if you would like, Princess Luna is staying with Twilight until she wakes to make sure she doesn’t use her magic” Spike said, “Let me lead you to your room.” Ortho followed spike through the Crystal corridor, It looked bigger on the inside than the outside. Ortho shivered as if he had already thought that before. Ortho reached in his head. Is everything okay master Baolaf? Ortho thought. ‘Everything’s fine my boy, though I don’t understand why your asking.’ I don’t know, Things feel… Off. Ortho thought to him. He heard Baolaf chuckle ‘It really surprised me what Discord did you know, even he knew of the Importance of the existence of the Imagineers. If I had known, I wouldn’t have need to have created Luna to dispose of him. Enough talk, You need shuteye, and you need to greet your new assistant tomorrow.” Spike and him were now at the door of the room. “I hope she recovers.” Spike said, “Its going to be a harsh adjustment to her you know, magic was her life, though…  I assume she can still study it and continue to write down new spells.” Ortho smirked, “You know, on my world, there was once a great musician named Ludvig Van Beethoven, he was renown far and wide, one day, he became deaf, unable to hear.” Spike looked at him, “That’s terrible to happen, especially to a Musician. “But, even though he was deaf, he knew music so well, that he was able to continue to make beautiful pieces of music, only thing was, he was unable to listen to his beautiful work.” “Like Twilight, she knows magic like the back of her hoof.” Spike said hopeful. “Exactly spike, good night.” He closed his door and went to bed. . . . Ortho woke up with a yawn, he was about to get out of bed when he found a little filly sleeping on top of him, out of surprise, he jolted upward, “Gaaahhhh!” he yelled. The Filly, startled, also jumped, “Eepp!” She landed on the ground besides him. “What the, Who are you? And why were you sleeping in my bed?” The filly got up groaning, “Ugh, sorry sir.” She was a little white filly with a pink mane and tail, “I got here in the morning, but when I saw you so cozy and warm… I started getting tired.” Ortho could hear Baolaf mentally chuckling in his head. “Well, okay, lets get this behind us. Whats your name?” “Tia, Tia Days sir.” She said. Ortho cleared his throat, “Okay Tia, your first task is to get me books on equestrian history, science, magic and Home modeling.” She took notes then raised an eyebrow, “Home modeling?” “I’ll have to live somewhere, I’m not staying in this castle forever.” Ortho said. Ortho looked at the moon through the window. An Idea popped in his head, “You know, I think I have an Idea.” . . . Ortho walked out of the room with Tia Days following, “So Princess Luna raises both the sun and the moon each day?” Ortho asked. Tia nodded, “Of coarse, everypony knows that.” “I’m curios on how the laws of Physics work in this world. Its quite different from mine.” Tia looked at him,         "Well, on my world, the sun is a million times the mass of my world, and not to mention that the world goes around the sun.” Ortho explained. “Well, that’s no different than ours.” Ortho raised an eyebrow, “Oh, do tell.” Tia cleared her throat, “Well, based on the Luna astronomy class I took, It is said that Equestria lost its rotation about two thousand years ago, luckly unicorn magic developed enough to where the princess can grab th sun and move the planet.” Ortho scratched his chin, “That’s incredible, I’ll have to look at Equestrian astronomy  while I’m here too.” This world wasn’t so illogical as Ortho completely thought, in fact, it was full of rich sciences. Four Of the original six were walking towards Imagineer and filly. “Were goin to head off to find Fluttershy and Discord, though... i'm not likin the odds of finding them” Apple Jack said. “Twilight is in the room down the hall, she wants to see you, Bye.” The four left in search for Fluttershy not seeming to notice the filly besides Ortho. Ortho looked to the Filly, “Would you like to come and greet Twilight with me?” Tia’s eyes sparkled, “To meet the element of magic, slayer of nightmare moon, and princess of friendship…Yes!” she said. Nightmare moon… he thought, something didn’t add up about that, and Ortho realized that it partially had something to do with the memories of Twilight. “Hey Tia?” Ortho asked the filly walking with him. She turned her head, “Yeah?” Ortho thought about the question, “What exactly happened after Nightmare Moon was defeated, and who put her in the moon in the first place?” “Well, the Elements of harmony turned her to stone, which is now in the royal gardens. And who one who put her in the moon, Princess Luna did of coarse.” She said. Ortho though abou this. Tia then explained further, "Well, you could say nightmare Moon was Luna, but as she rejected the darkness, it split from her and became a whole other being." Ortho thought about this explaination, the memory was fuzzy, but it felt different than that. When they reached the room, Ortho saw that Twilight was still in her bed with Princess Luna besides her. They appeared to have ben chatting and laughing with each other. Twilight looked over to his direction, “Oh, Ortho, we were just talking about you.” Luna said. “We were curious about your Species, and how you developed without magic.” She said. “Spike also told me that your world had like a deaf musician or something like that, I was just curious.” Twilight said. She seemed to be in a good mood at least. And Ortho was happy to tell them his history. He explained to them the big bang theory, and how the first element Hydrogen, created stars which exploded after a long period of time after nuclear fusion to make heavier element like Iron to make planets that clumped together from the particles. He then explained the goldilocks zone on how a planet must be close but not too close to the sun so it doesn’t burn or freeze for their life to exist. The two ponies were submerged in his knowledge as he switched the subject to human inventions from the solenoid to the computer, then to space travel devices, to quantum theory and blackholes, to galaxies. The two Alicorns and unicorn filly  was enthralled in his stories of the universe his species pieces together. There were things his species didn’t know about, but he told what he knew. “Your species are very incredible Ortho, the lack of magic must have increased your inventive and discovery skills.” Ortho’s smile disappeared, “We used to be, anyway.” All ponies cocked their heads, Tia looked up at him, “What do you mean, you’ve reached the heavens, discovered the beginning of the universe and created marvelous Inventions.” “Well…” Ortho began, “As our technologies grew without restriction, we relied more and more on our technologies to the point where they did everything for us. Advance learning wasn’t required anymore, my people grew even more stupid with each generation.” “But your not like that Ortho.” Twilight said. Ortho sighed, “I’m in a minority of humans Twilight, my parents raised me to be better than the rest of the world of humanity so I could eventually try to raise human awareness again one day. But that’s changed now that I’m here to bring forth harmony to this land.” All of the ponies frowned. Suddenly Twilights tattoo acted up. “Whats going on with that?” Ortho asked. Twilight looked it over, “My cutie mark? I don’t know?” Twilight said Ortho would have to ask about that later. Twilights friends, minus Fluttershy came in, “We couldn’t find Fluttershy, but I’m sure she will turn up.” Said Rarity. “But our here cutie marks are acting up.” Apple Jack said. "Its why e came back." “Mine too” Twilight said. “ we should get to the throne room to discus this. . . . ‘I nearly forgotten the plans me and the others had for them.’ Baolaf said. What do you mean, Ortho thought as he followed Twilight and the others. ‘Me and the others didn’t think this would happen, your coming here I mean, so we devised a plan to have the six to fix the problems over Equestria. The others must have activated the map without me.’ Ortho walked into the throne room, with six chairs in a circle. Wheres the map? Ortho asked. ‘You will see.’ Baolaf said. The six sat in their chairs. Ortho looked to Twilight an saw hers was broken. ‘Hope it  still works.’ Baolaf said. The marks on the chairs glowed while Twilights glitched, but it did the trick. crystals started jutting out from the chairs to the center into a table with a holographic map on it. Spike stood by me while it happened, “Wow, that’s new.” Spike said, “Looks like I better cancel watching the Hoofball game with Big Mac.” “Fascinating.” Luna said. A glitchy star that resembled Twilights Cutie mark came over to Ortho, at the touch of his right hand, it transformed itself into a gauntlet with the star symbol. ‘Still looking out for you Ortho.” Baolaf said. Orthodox observed it, it had a scale like plating that looked similar to spikes scales. He then turned back to the map to see another Star, only surrounded by other… cutie marks, he remembered them being called. They moved over to a location on the map away from Ponyville.” “What does it mean?” Rarity asked, “If were supposed to go there, we can’t go without Fluttershy, her cutie mark shows that she’s supposed to go there too if that’s the case.” Suddenly Discord appeared, “Is Twilight done being loco?” He asked, gasping at the sight of her. “Well, you’re the reason she wen’t crazy in the first place Discord.” Apple Jack said. “Yes, yes, that is true, alright, I guess I’ll bring her back.” He snapped his fingers and Fluttershy appeared. “Twilight!” The yellow pegasus flew to her friend and hugged her. “I thought that you would never be you again.” She sobbed. Twilight started crying as well, apologizing to the pegasus. The Pegasus wiped her eyes, “I'm Sorry, is Celestia still here?” Everypony looked confused. “Who in the hay is Celestia?” Apple Jack asked. It was Fluttershy's turn to look confused, “What do you mean?” Ortho felt a chill, the name felt familiar. Ortho’s assistant perked up, “My name is Celestia, but you can call me Tia, and… How do you know my name, only one who calls me by that is my aunt.” Tia said Fluttershy looked at the filly, surprise on her face, but didn’t say another word. Was it now...fear on her face? Discord stroked his beard, “The name sounds familiar, but it doesn’t ring a bell.” He said darkly. Discord never forgets name, even though he pretends to for the occasional pun. But something about the name… disturbed him. “Well, I better be off, there’s chaos to wreak.” He snapped his fingers and left. Everyone shook back to reality. Fluttershy looked rather concerned, but turned her focus toward her friends. //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 5 The Assistant //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 5 The Assistant         Discord scuried owards his dimension of chaos, rummaging through his unorganized things, trying to find something, "It has to be here somewhere." He opened up a filing cabinet filled with cheese, bunnies, ant farmers and their farms, and... aha. "Discord pulled out the sacred book of beings, which held every name of every soul. He opened the book and conducted a little test, "Discord." he said to the book. the pages flipped and stopped at a certain page, it lit up and revealed a holographc image of himself, "Discord, spirit of chaos, a chimera like being called a draconequus, common the species were a long time ago, but wiped out to the point of extinction, only one left remains in equestria to this day, immortal, and alone." Discord sighed as unwanted memories came back to him, "Fine, search up, Celestia." The book flipped through its pages and stopped, "Forgive me, this catagory was wiped out of existent thirty two hours ago, its data banks is still in the process of being rewritten." Discord sputtered all of the coffee he Apperently drank, "I see, now thats interesting, book, cancel the rewriting process and restore the information from before." The book made a few clicking sounds before replying, "Restoring data will take precisely two months to full retrieval." Discord graoned in frustration. Usually he would fast forward in time to retreive the information, but if he did, he would miss some very important events, his time with Fluttershy, and he did wan't to see how Orthodox would develope. 'Wait' Discord thought as he stroked his beard, "Fluttershy did seem to know who this Celestia was", the name was very familiar, as if it were at the top of his tongue, could Ortho? No, he has the power, but lacks the experience to preform such a spell, "Maybe Fluttershy still remembers due to her being in this dimension?  no, then I would remember her too, whats preventing her from forgetting?" I'll have to talk to her he thought. Discord snapped his fingers. Fluttershy materialised right in front of him. She looked around in confusion before she turned around to meet Discord's equine like face, "Discord?" She questioned.         "We have a lot to talk about Fluttershy, so make yourself comfortable while I make some tea. Seconds later Discord snapped his fingers and materialised a steaming tray of tea, "Hope yor comfortable." Fluttershy barly had enough time to blink before he snapped his fingers again to find herself now on his couch. Discord sat on his chair while sipping his tea. He offered her a cup which she took slowly. The two remained quiet for a while before Discord started on the subject. "Fluttershy, can you tell me about this... Celestia." Fluttershy looked down in her cup as if it were the; most interesting thing right now, she was obviously distressed. She gulped before looking into the Draconequus's red eyes, "w-well... I don't... know how to go about it really, do... you really not... know?" Discord needed words to make her comfortable due to this obviously being a sensitive subject. "I know that she exist, or did, before her fate got rearranged and is now a completly different pony." She looked up to him and nodded her head slowly before taking a sip of her tea, "She... was a princess and Co-ruler of Equestria, beside princess Luna and older sister, she raised the sun, while Luna raised the moon, and also had a part to imprisoning you into stone." Discord expected many things, but ot this. A pony of this importance got rearranged? whoever did this was clever enough to manipulate the time stream and manipulate the memories of all of the denizens of Equestria, all except Flutershy, "I would recommend you to keep quiet about this Fluttershy, until I can figure this out." Fluttershy nodded her head again. Dscord flashed out of the chair and appeared in his livingroom, pacing around thinking, "Go through the door on your left, the purple one, not the green one, that leads to the belly of a Dragon." Flutershy nodded once more and thanked him for the tea. She then walked through the door into her house. Orthodox         The little filly followed Orthodox without a word, not a glimmer of fear shone on her face that  told him that she didn't want to be around him, it was actually the opposite, she seemed more than fasinated to be in his presents. Ortho continued on until he came across  a sign on one of the doors that read 'Guest bedroom' he looked back to his new assistant, "So where are you sleeping?" She blinked a few moments before she realised she followed him all the way to his room instead of going to hers, "Oh, i'm so sorry Mr, Orthodox, I was just fascinated with your evolutionary structure and thinking on the possibilities of how you adapted to being bipedal." Ortho smirked at the kid, her intelegence was very well demonstrated, she will be a very interesting assistant alright. "I can explain to you that in the morning after you get me what I need to better adapt to Equestria, so books on magic, and Equestrian physics would be nice to have, so Good nightt Tia." he says as he closes the door. The Filly stood there a moment before heading to her chambers, wondering if she could even work herself up to even be his apprentice, after all, you don't always get a chance to be aprenticed by an Imagineer, 'it was incredible that luna picked me out to be his assistant' she thought. It seemed both very lucky and unexpected for the filly. Originally Tia came with Luna to greet the newcomer who had immense and extraordinary power that gave even the solar princess chills, all the way from canterlot no less. Everypony in equestria felt him, unicorns seemed more sensitive to the effects and have even passed out around him, but, it would be impolite and rude to faint around the guest of equestria, ponies would just have to hold up until the shipments of energy block pills arrived for everypony. They all panicked when he shot down, except in ponyville, they felt so sick that they couldn't even panic when the main six brought him back. It was the similar for Luna when she got created, the magic radiating from her gave ponies headaches and neck pains, it would be years later that they adjusted to her. It was different for Tia, when she's around him she doesn't feel sick or wheezy for some odd reason, instead, she feels his energy and see's a sad, yet passionate emotion like energy, it gave off a glow of pureness, one other reason she followed him blindly through the castle. The filly snuggled in her bed and drifted to sleep, dreeming of awaiting adventure.
