The Elements of Harmony In the Search for the Lost Elements, and the War for the Bearers of the Accursed Stones, and the Quest to Bring Them to Ruin: Book 1: "Through Words of Ignorance and Eyes of Fire, You Shall Incur the Shadow Kings Ire!"

"EXPLAIN. IT. AGAIN!" demanded Princess Celestia.

"I dropped the box into the abyss," Twilight said, looking at the floor, her ears drooped down.

"HOW DID YOU DROP THE BOX? DIDN'T YOU SECURE IT WITH THE ANTI-MAGIC HARNESS I GAVE YOU?"

"Well, I ran out of money, and that horse looked like a sure thing!" Twilight don't.

Celestia brought a hoof to her forehead, and rubbed it.

"Spike, will YOU explain, please?" Celestia was as mad as shes ever been.

"Twilight dropped the box into the abyss," he said, still just completely checked out.

"Great. JUST GREAT! Now I'm going to have to go track them down! The three of them could be anywhere!" Also this is all happening in Twilight's castle lol I should have told you that before sorry.

"Three? We only saw two mysterious orbs of light shoot into the air," said Twilight who was still really ashamed of herself.

"What? Twilight, that box had three objects in it. You didn't bet one of them away did you?" Celestia is also really ashamed of her.

"NO! I'm sorry princess, but I didn't open the box!"

"Than whatever was in that abyss must have it," she said.

Celestia sighed, and took on a more calm demeanor.

"Twilight, you must gather your friends. A great evil has been unleashed on our world. Go. Bring them here. I will explain when they arrive"

Fancy Pants was not the kind of pony anyone would imagine. He is one of the elite of Canterlot. He is one of the most influential ponies in all of Equestria, yet he never sought fame. He never sought money. Fancy Pants sought only one thing. Power. He sought power, but not in the way you would imagine. He was never underhanded. He never lied or cheated to gain his place. He earned his power through respect, determination, and, above all else, kindness. Fancy Pants didn't seek power to rule. Fancy Pants sought power to help. He sought to bring about change in the upper class.

Yet today, he felt a little different. Today he looked upon Canterlot with eyes, not of kindness, but of desire.

Something within him was changing.

Something was changing him.

In the sky, a small glowing orb waited. When the time was right, it would claim its victim.

"Alright Twilight, why did you literally drag us here at 2:30 in the morning?" asked Rainbow Dash who didn't like being dragged by her tail for 20 minutes to get to the castle.

"I asked her to bring you here!" said Celestia who had just stepped out of the shadows for dramatic effect.

"Princess, why did youliterally have Twilight drag us here at 2:30 in the morning?" asked Rainbow Dash.

"Because, my little ponies, the entire world is in grave danger!" and lighting struck outside when she said that.

"WHAT?" said all of the ponies, including Celestia for some reason.

"The Box of Forbidden Harmony has been destroyed!" she said and that's right more lightning!

"The what?" asked everypony, again including Celestia and at this point I think she's just messing with them.

"My dear ponies, you represent the good and just side of harmony, yet you do not embody all of the elements," and this time only one pony  gasped. You get to decide who it was!

"Although the Tree of Harmony produced only six elements, it was not the only host to bare elements. In those days, we called it the 'Tree of Disharmony', but that name wasn't accurate. Even though only three existed, these elements created a harmony even stronger than the ones you hold," Celestia took a bite of the sandwich she was eating.

"Princess, what elements could possibly outmatch ours?" Applejack here asking the real questions.

"First, The Element of Vengeance. It holds the power to not only magnify even the smallest feelings of revenge within ones self, but also to increase the power of the wearer based on how strong that feeling becomes," she took a sip of the strawberry milkshake she was drinking.

"Next was The Element of Power. It could twist even the most noble of ponies into warlords, just so long as they had even the smallest desire for power. The last pony to wear that element became one of the most successful conquerors in our history......" she trailed off, remembering the horrifying war for the Crystal Empire all of those years ago. She took a bite of the bagel she was eating.

"And the third?" asked a totally enthralled Twilight.

"The Element of Jealousy," she answered, taking a bite of the candy bar.

Lightning dust was plagued with nightmares. She was a loser. She knew she was a loser. She made sure she knew that she was a loser.

"Rainbow Dash....." she said in her half awake state. Tonight was a nightmare about being kicked out of the wonderbolts. Yesterday was a nightmare about being kicked out of the Wonderbolts. The day before that was a nightmare about "Funky Bones, the king of the bone Warriors!", but the night before that was a nightmare about being kicked out of the Wonderbolts.

"It should have.....been.....me," she said as she fell back to sleep.

A glowing orb hid in the clouds, preparing to strike.

"That element has the power to increase a ponies willpower. The more they resent the one who has what they want, the more powerful they become," said Celestia and she was done eating.

"Uh, Princess, why did you pause for like 3 minutes just now?" asked Applejack.

"What are you talking about?" asked Celestia with shifty eyes.

"I wana try!" said Pinkie Pie. She paused for like 20 minutes. It was kinda impressive.

"My friends, you must seek out these rouge elements, and return them to me! I will reseal them, and after that, we must take drastic measures!"  AND EVEN MORE LIGHTNING!

"We must destroy the Elements, and stop anypony who may use their power!"

She took a bite of the cookie she was saving.
