Previous Chapter

Coldness, that was all the Colva could feel. He didn't even bother trying to understand why he didn't wake up at a bonfire. Then again, he believed this must've been his punishment for leaving Lucatiel behind.

Then, he started to feel two different forms of coldness. That shouldn't feel right. He opened his eyes and saw only white through his helmet. He panted, getting any snow that got into his mouth. He began to get up, despite how much he just wanted to stay down. He stood, seeing that he was in some form of frozen tundra. He was unfamiliar with this portion of the world, but, then again, he's been in stranger places.

"That's one of the things, isn't it."

Colva heard a meek voice in the distance. He began running to investigate. He started going up a hill.

"We need to get to the Empire, NOW!" said a male voice.

Colva got to the top, and saw a bunch of colored horses running from an ever growing dark cloud. Okay, as if this world didn't feel weird enough. He looked at the dark cloud, a thought he could feel a dark figure within it, much like Nashandra.

He saw six of the horses run towards a wide dome, but another one began walking towards the cloud. Colva knew what it was planning to do, so he charged down the frozen hill, sprinting towards the horse, which he could now see had a horn of a unicorn, and was white with a blue mane. He shot a beam at the mist, which had 'grown' two greenish eyes, but it simply moved around the blast. The eyes had murder in them now.

Crap, he won't last long if my guess is right. Colva then pulled out his Dragon Chime, and began charging a lightning barrage.


Crud, that didn't work! Shining armor thought as he prepared himself for Sombra's retaliation.

SHRZZTSHRZZTSHRZZT Dozens of lightning bolts began slamming into Sombra, causing him to recoil in pain

"What the" Shining then get hoisted up by a tall creature wearing some form of armor. He was being held under one arm, while being lifted underneath with the other arm.

"Your brave, horse, but now is not the time for bravery, now's the time for RUNNING!" It yelled to him. He felt insulted, not calling him the proper name.

"I'm a PONY!" Shining retorted as the creature dived into the barrier protecting the Crystal Empire. They were blinded by the light, and thus the two began tumbling around the ground, which felt more like grass than snow.

"BBBFF, are you alright?" Twilight said to Shining as he started to get back up. He could see easier, but his head was a little drowsy from all the rolling. "Yeah, I believe so."

"Um," Rainbow Dash, hovering, exclaimed, "Now that that's over, for now, can someone tell me what is THAT IS!" All of them turned toward the barrier, where the creature Shining meet stood up, and took off his helmet, holding it to his hip.

"My name's Colva. Now would someone tell me where I am, who the guy outside is, what's going on, and, more important than all the rest, how can I help?"


Author's Note

Much shorter than the last one, but I felt that this was I can only write so much in one day before my chair gets unbearable.

As for what he looks like......uh, imagine Boromir from Lord of the Rings, but with Aragorn's hair color....that's the closest description I could come up with.
