The stupid reasonby MefistaChaptersThe shakingThe discoveryThe effect [microchapter]The shaking...It was a nice sunny day-not of the perfect kind, but definitely good. Ponyville looked nice in the sunshine - it was like a big table full of yummy cakes. Rainbow Dash looked on it from the cloud; she was half-asleep,and wasn't in the mood to do anything that involved movement (previous night was Pinkie's Egg Day party; nobody knew what this celebration was about,but party is a party,and chocolate eggs and curd dessert were definnitely good), which was unusual for her,but even the fastest pegasi need to rest sometimes. "I will rest here for aaaall day..."-she thought. "And in the night I'll finally try to check if my rainbow trace looks different under the moonlight." Suddenly earth shaked. It felt like some angry giant kicked ground from the below: thump, thump, thuuum, trrrrrrr. Pinkie Pie caught the falling cupcakes and ran from the Sugarcube Corner in panic. Then she jumped, dropped cupcakes and ran back in, just to be back in a minute, somehow holding all four Cakes, Gummy and rubber duck on her back. Fluttershy in the forest was feeding baby bears with milk (their mommy was milkless for some reason, and allowed yellow pegasus to feed her cubs every day) when earth started to shake. She was so concentrated that she noticed it only when mama bear hid in the den, carrying her babies and pony with her. Applejack was sleeping, as well as Twilight Sparkle, Spike and Rarity - Twilight accidentally hit everybody with the "instant rest" spell she was preparing for herself...and it worked too fast and too well, just because Twilight misspelled one letter in the end of the magic formula (it's hard to spell when two your friends and assistant are loudly arguing near you),so now they all were laying on the road,scaring passengers with their overly loud snoring. When earth shaked,they all awakened - and Rarity, Spike and Applejack continued their discussion from the place they stopped on yesterday: -...and that is why Yellow Pony will kick Equinator's flank in every day of week! -said Applejack loudly. -Am I right,Twilight? -But Equinator looks so much better...-sighed Rarity. -But both comicbooks are so stupid! Ghost Runner is the best! - whispered Spike, who considered himself comics expert, but was afraid that his comment will insult Rarity. Twilight Sparkle rolled her eyes and answered: -Rarity, Equinator is a clockwork golem. Under that nice golden coat he is just gears and pistons. He is definitely not a colt of your dream. Aj, Yellow Pony is absolutely uncivilised. He is not a good example of a hero.Not to mention he is half-eldritch abomination. Spike,Ghost Runner...hmmm, I do think he looks cool, but forces of evil try to harm his friends all the time. And he is also not a gentelcolt. I myself prefer Batcolt. -Batcolt is just an ordinary pony in the cape, -little dragon protested. - We were discussing the ones with powers! -He does have powers. They are just, mmm, well-hidden, -muttered Twilight. -And I also like Hossow. -Isn't he an undead? - Rarity growled in disgust. -Wait...is the earth shaking?.. Three ponies and baby [just in the body size] dragon screamed and clenched together.It looked definitely funny-maybe,reality decided that it was worth it,and earthquake suddenly stopped. -A-a-are everypony ok? - asked Applejack. -I am. Who is touching my flank? - asked Twilight Sparkle. -Oops... - said Spike, blushing. -My back is itching! - whined Rarity.-Spike,it's your scales! Go away,please. Ponyball fell apart, revealing Spike with weird dreamy expression on his face, Rarity, who was trying to scratch her back, funny flat Applejack and surprisingly mundane-looking Twilight Sparkle. -Whatever this was,it's over now, - muttered Applejack. - Now,if you excuse me, I'll...passsouuu... She fell on the ground. Her friends stared at her in horror, but loud snoring assured them that Aj is ok. -I'll go into the library and check if everything is ok, - said Twilight Sparkle. - Spike,come here. -And I'll go to spa and will spend few hours here. Oh my, I slept on a dirty road! It's AWFUL! Bye...- with that, Rarity ran away, her last words thinning in the wind. Author's Note FUCK, ALL THE TYPOS AND MIS-WORDINGS WHY DID I PUBLISH IT IN THE NIGHT WITH NO PROOF-READING The discoveryFew hours later After visiting all of her friends (to see if they were ok), Rainbow Dash no longer wanted to sleep; instead she decided to fly over the mountains to train wings and, maybe, play tag some young hyppogryphs (little things were so breathtakingly adorable - Fluttershy've loved them if she was brave enough to fly to the mountains). After few hours of laaazy flight (she was stupid enough to try Pinkie's Super Tasty Mega Nutrient Travel Cake before asking what "Mega Nutrient" means, and now her stomach felt like it was full of gravel...but it really was Super Tasty) she saw sights of the earthquake (Ponyville wasn't damaged by it at all - biggest losses were a flowerpot and Mayor's glasses) -big part of a mountain was damaged and cracked,and...something shined inside. "If this is gold or something interesting, I can bring some to my friends, " - Rainbow Dash thought. She flew down carefully and saw a lake. It was beautiful:its coast was full of gems of various size and shape, and the water itself was shimmering and silverish in colour. It was definitely water - and it was fresh, so Rainbow drunk some, being thursty after a long flight. She lied down on the biggest gem - blue, as her coat, and very sparkly - and looked in the sky. Sky was blue, too - perfect blue, with no clouds, no birds and no pegasi...it was so beautiful, so bright, so endless... Rainbow Dash fell asleep. *** Some time later. I know, it looks boring, but c'mon, are you really thinking I gonna write about EVERY thing that happened, like Princess Celestia going for a walk and Princess Luna accidentally eating a spider? It's no scrypt! Woah,Rainbow Dash,those gems are so beautiful! - Rarity hugged a pile of shimmering stones, each shining with billion colours of its unique palette. And tasty, -added Spike, chewing one of the yellow ones. -Where did you find them? And that weird water, -Twilight Sparkle was looking at cup of the silver water Rainbow brought (she hollowed one of the stones with a gem and filled it with water). -It is magical, I am sure. Maybe,even dangerous! And you drunk it?! -Hey, I was thursty! And I don't think it can cause any harm. It's just usual water. But nice. It's, like, Rarity of the waters. -Maybe it's, mmm, filled with shine from gems? - said Applejack .- They shined,shined,and made it shiny...I am no sciencist, y'know, I am just saying... Suddenly Spike hiccuped, emitting some yellow flame. It burned Pinkie's bow (Rarity was making a dress for her, and styled her hair to fit) and ended right near Fluttershy's nose. She shrieked and hid under the blanket. -Oh. I am sorry. I think I've eaten too many, - apologised little dragon. -Your fire...it was unusual, have you seen it?-asked Twilight. -Er...no, I blink when I hiccup. -It was yellow, like ballon on my mark! - said Pinkie Pie. - Can you now make a blue one? And then pink? And then... -Shh, Pinkie. I think his fire changed colour cause gems are unusual, but...FLUTTERSHY, PLEASE DON'T DRINK IT, I HAVEN'T FINISHED MY STUDIES! But it was too late.Fluttershy drunk all the shining water and scream only made her drop the cup on the carpet (cup sirvived). Oh...I am...s-sorry... -yellow pegasus blushed, hiding under the blanket again. -I was, like, scared,and my mouth became dry, and...I forgot it is special water...please,don't be angry on me... At the end of this sentence she somehow completely hid under Gummy's blanket. Don't worry, I can bring more tomorrow, -said Rainbow Dash. And I am not angry, -Twilight Sparkle looked under the blanket, smiling. - I just was afraid that this water can be harmful to you. It was tasty - squeaked Fluttershy. -I can ask my Jabberwock friend to bring more. Jabber-what? - said Applejack. - Sounds pretty weird. -Ooh, -started Fluttershy, now standing with blanket on her back (making question about how she fitted under it even more relevant). -Jabberwock is a creature that is a bit like a dragon, but he is not, he breathes fire, likes carrots and is wearing a jacket. He hurt his wing, and I cured him. He is so sweet! I don't even need to Stare him down to make him eat his vegetables. I mean,half of his teeth are surely for meat, but I don't have any, and all fishes that planned to die this month have died already, and deer still don't care about all that reincarnation thingie, and that big pig farm is so far away...so he eats vegetables. And he can fly. He carried momma bear with her cubs when I asked him. He said I can ask him for everything - I also saved him from that living sword...It was before you arrived, Twilight. Oh, and now I am curing him again, because he got in a fight with a Discord, who owes him 20 bits... It's pretty late already, you know?- suddenly asked Rarity. -You are my friends, but we can't all stay here tonight...I am not ready for a sleepover. And I need to wake Macintosh up in the morning, - said Applejack. -He ignores roosters now. And I was planning to do few experiments on those gems. You don't mind,Rarity? Of course, I do...er, I mean, yes, you can take them for a night. Just bring them back after that - I already have plans for them... I am so tired... -said Rainbow Dash. - Don't know if I can reach my home... -I 'll help you, -said Fluttershy. -Ugh...if you don't mind. I'll go and try to improve my Super Tasty Mega Nutrient Travel Cake, so it won't be so heavy in the tum! - Pinkie run out of Boutique , looking like some kind of bouncy pink lightning. Everybody went home, too, and they didn't knew what gonna hapen tomorrow... Author's Note ERRORS HELP ME WITH CATCHING THEM The effect [microchapter]Next day.Princess Luna burped spider back, but accidentally blew him out of window while apologising. He sirvived the fall somehow, but I bet he won't even walk near the castle anytime soon. Twilight Sparkle woke up from the sound of someone furiously kicking her door. She ran to open it as fast as it was ponily possible, knocking over a large pile of books on her way...only to freeze in her tracks when someone opened the door with magic. Magical glow was gray, and no unicorn Twilight knew had a grey glow - not to mention that grey and black glows were insanely rare thing. Two cloacked figures stepped in. They looked rather ominous...at least until figure on the left squeaked and whispered: - Ummm...sorry, Twilight, but we need your help. - Yeah, - added figure on right, and both cloacks fell on the floor, revealing... Well,they both still were ponies - ponies, but no longer pegasi. Rainbow Dash became dusty gray unicorn, her mane was four-coloured, in dull shades of red, yellow, green and indigo, and eyes were bright, clear aquamarine. Cutie mark, though unchanged (only a bit darker), was visually bigger and faced backwards. Fluttershy, on the other hand, was now a pure white earth pony with sky blue, coral red and vibrant orange hair, butterflies of her cutie matched mane, and her eyes... They were yellow.And they were diamonds. -What can you say about it, Twilight?- asked Dash eagerly. -It feels weird when I blink... - Fluttershy sighed. Violet unicorn didn't answer, still being shocked. Rainbow stomped on floor impatiently, then, out of sheer boredom, tried to lift something with her new magic powers, effectively starting a book rain which covered all three ponies. When the last book peacefully fell, Twilight hiccuped and said in unusually thin voice: -Well...I am sure we can try to do something...but I'll better write a letter to Princess. Spike! Come here, please! -I can't do it, Twilight, - said unusually sad voice from the kitchen. - I mean - writing, not walking. -Why so? -I can't do it cause I no longer have front paws. With that words, a small, yellow wyvern walked in the room. His eyes and backspikes were red and shimmering, and jaws ended with a beak. He looked ashamed, and one of his wings was covered in whipped cream. Why in the name of Tartarus all of those things happen to meee ... moaned Twilight, laying flat on the floor and facehoofing infinitely. Author's Note The last thing I printed [there is a finale, but I need to write something to lead to it first]. I will finish this story, it's just that I have no inspiration now... AND I FIXED PREVIOUS CHAPTERS GO REREAD THEM, 1.5 PEOPLE WHO BOTHERED TO LOOK ON MY STUFF Also, I am all pro-Twilacorn, but here she is not a princess yet.
