My Little Pony Power of Z
Chapter II: A sixth sense... What's wrong with Twilight?
Previous ChapterTwilight had then gotten out of bed with a headache that wasn't the worst one she's ever had, but one that was pretty up there. She didn't know what to react to this new, well... she didn't really know what or how to describe it, not very well to say the least. She felt a strange mass of... energy? That was the only word that came to mind when she tried to call the thing she felt. It was a some what small energy and came from the only other one than herself that lived in the castle, Spike. That wasn't the part she was feeling confused about. The part that she was confused about wasn't this strange new sense.
It was that dream.
Why was it so strange? It was just like any other dream that shes had. It seemed out normal, but later on it would stranger, just like any other dream. But, at the same time, it felt there was something more to it... Something deeper. But she knew that she couldn't just stand there and ponder what was in that dream. She had a party to today! But until the party was over, she was going to need to figure out the dream's cryptic message later. With that out of the way she then decided to go eat breakfast and check on Spike.
Spike was preparing breakfast for him and Twilight for a little less than a half hour. There was a small tower of mixing bowls, wooden spoons, and tons of other cooking utensils in the pile. He was almost done with the waffles he was making.
"Almost done!" said the young dragon "all I need is the powdered sugar."
Though Spike and Twilight had been living there for quite a while, they were still not able to find everything within seconds. Sometimes it takes them twenty minutes to just find the simplest things. After looking around for a few seconds he finally laid his eyes on the bag of powdered sugar on top of the refrigerator in the back of it. Seeing how it was high up there, he then went and got a step ladder.
"Al... most... there..." said Spike as he was stretching as far as he could. The step ladder started wobbling. The next thing that he knew, he was falling towards the ground along with the sugar. But before his face could meet the floor a violet aura was stopping him from having a smashed face.
"You really need careful Spike," said a familiar voice, "If your not careful, you can really get yourself hurt."
Looking up was the purple alicorn that hes known ever since he was born.
"Sorry Twilight, i'm just... trying to do something nice," said Spike.
Twilight gave a smiled at Spike and put the sugar that she managed to catch with her magic and put it back into the bag, and on top of the fridge. They then proceeded to eat the waffles that Spike had made...
...Or Twilight at least tried to...
For every time she tried to enjoy herself, she felt like she was being watched by something or someone. The whole time she felt a sinister energy coming somewhere from inside the castle. It was so overwhelming that it made her so disoriented that Spike started noticing that she was now just frozen. no eye movement, no twitching, absolutely nothing.
"Twilight?" said Spike as walked to her, "Twilight?"
He waved his hand in front of her face... nothing. He shook her... nothing. he even grabbed a cymbal given to him by Pinkie Pie... nothing. there was then only one thing left that he could try. He grabbed a bucket of water and had then splashed it on Twilight. This finally got her attention. However what he got was an angered look from the soaked alicorn. "Spike, what was that for?!" said a now angered Twilight. Spike nervously said, "Sorry Twilight! You just zoned out all of a sudden, are... are you alright?".
"I'm... I'm fine." the lavender pony said trying to keep her cool.
"Ar-are you sure? Because I-"
"I said i'm fine."
"But you-"
"I said i'm fine!"
"But-"
"I'M FINE!" Said the annoyed alicorn. Her yelling was enough to knock Spike on to the ground and quake in fear. Before she would do something regretful, she managed to calm herself down. "Sorry Spike, i'm just thinking." said Twilight. While he was trying to pick himself backup, Spike said "You've been making that a habit ever since yesterday."
"I know, I just... feel really stressed out all of a sudden," said Twilight. Spike continued with, "Stressed out? From what? The party is going to go great!". "The party isn't what i'm worried about..." said Twilight, "...Spike... I feel something".
"Feel... something? like touching something?" said Spike. "No its... well..." said Twilight trying to find words to describe this sixth sense, "I think I've got another sense of some sort". Spike then asked "Another sense... Like Pinkie's Pinkie Sense?". "No, at least I don't think so..." said Twilight, "But whatever it is, I can feel some sort of energy from everypony, even you!". "Wow, that sounds awesome!" said the young dragon. "Yeah but the thing is, I don't where I got it," said Twilight. "Really? But... then how did you get it?" said Spike. "I don't know, but I think it had something to do with my dream last night," said Twilight. Spike raised an eyebrow at his friend with confusion. But before they could continue questioning his companion's logic, the clock in the room went off signifying that it was now nine o'clock.
Twilight's jaw dropped as she said "GAH! The party will start in an hour!". She then left the room to go gather the things for the party. Spike then followed her as they disappeared into the hallway.
