I'd like to note before you read this that the character I introduce in this story has nothing to do with Ninjago. And this story takes place the day after the episode: Castle mania. Also this is an alternate universe so the events that follow will not match up to later episodes. Thanks :) Chapter 1: missing books and near death "thanks for helping me transport these ancient books back to ponyville Spike." Twilight Sparkle, a lavender colored alicorn with a dark purple mane with a pink streak though it, said to her baby dragon assistant, whose arms where full of books. "N..n.o...o Prob...lem..." He said grunting under his load. Twilight of course used her magic to carry her load, which included 5 shelfs worth of books. She carried them over to a table in the middle of the library. Setting them down on it she pulled a old chair up on it's rear legs, activating a secret door. Two shelfs slid away to reveal the door. "C'mon Spike, those old books won't move themselves." Twilight said as she walked though the door into a hidden room. Normally this room was filled with the rarest of books. But as she entered she saw to her horror that they where all gone! "What?! No!!" She rushed into the room and franticly began searching for the missing Books. "Maybe we already cleaned this out and you forgot." Spike said trying to calm her down to no effect. As She ran about the room looking everywhere for the books, she stepped though a red beam of light. Suddenly the room began to shake. "Uh Twilight..." "Now Spike I have to find the books! They can't have gotten far!" Suddenly a book self fell over, landing right on her tail! "Twilight!" Spike yelled as the ceiling began to collapse. A falling bookcase knocked Spike clear of the room, and knocked him unconscious. Twilight closed her eyes and tried to use her magic to create a shield to protect her from the falling pieces of the room. Her horn flicked and failed. "No!" She cried in defeat. She closed her eyes preparing for the end. She suddenly felt a light breeze on her face, opening her eyes, she saw to her amazement a small tornado rushing around her and the bookcase which held her tail captive. The bookcase and herself suddenly began to rise into the air. The wirlwind whipped around her and she found herself staring into a grey stallion's eyes, his mane was black and had red stripes though it, his light brown eyes stared back at hers for an instant. Suddenly she was back in the library standing dizzly next to the still knocked out spike. The strange stallion was already leaping out of a nearby window. "Wait who are you?!" Twilight called as he vanished. She quickly flew up to the window and scanned the horizon looking for him. "Where could he have gone?" Twilight flew down the gorge and search for a while before she returned to Spike, who by now was awake. "Twilight!" The teary eye baby dragon cried, "you're alive!" he rushed to her and hugged her. Hugging him back she wondered about her mysterious hero. Who was he? How was he able to do that spinning trick? Why'd he rush off after he had saved her? And most of all, would she ever see him again? "Come on Spike we have to get these books to Canterlot." She use her magic to pick the books up and they left. __________________________________________________________________________________________ It had been a week since Twilight's Adventure in the two sister's castle, she had spent most of her time researching the strange spinning power of her unknown hero. As she search though the books in the canterlot library she found one entitled: Extinct and Rare Equestrian creatures: ponies, dragons and minitors. "This looks promising," She said cheerfully as she opened it to the index and read though until she found a promising chapter entitled "Wind Ponies? what in equestria is a wind pony?" Twilight wondered aloud. Flipping to the chapter she began to read. Wind ponies where first born when a peguis with a talent for the speed of the wind gave birth to an earth pony with the power to control the wind. As time passed this ponies decendents began to repeat this talent in many different ways some where able to create only gust while others could control hurrucanes or tornados. During the 100 years that luna was trapped in the moon these ponies vanished from history and have become more of a legend. "Could I have seen a wind pony?!" Twilight gasped. "This could be the find of a life time! just think after all these years they still exist, they're not extinct!" Standing up Twilight began to plan how to find this mystrious pony and learn more about him. A knock on the door woke Twilight from her thoughts. "I'm coming." she called as she walked to the door. She opened it and Applejack and Rarity walked in. "Hi girls." she said. "What's up?" "Hello Twilight dear." Rarity said. "Apple Jack and I were... well worried about you." "You were? why?" Twilight asked a bit confused. "I'm okay." "Well it's just that you.." Applejack paused as she searched for the right words, "..Hardy ever git out of the library." "Quiet right, you should go and meet some stallions dear." rarity said, "it's not heathy to stay cooped up inside all the time, let alone never dating." Twilight pondered this for a moment. 'Maybe they're right....' She thought, 'I should get out more. But I don't know any stallions I'd like to date.' She suddenly remember the strange wind pony. 'Maybe if I found him...' "Okay girls, I'll try." She finally said. "That's great Twilight!" Applejack said. "Wonderful. I'll go gather some colts for you to choose from." Rarity said and started toward the door. "Thanks Rarity but I already have an idea." Twilight said stopping Rarity in her tracks. "You do?" She asked. "Yup." "What'cha got in mind Twilight?" Applejack asked. A sudden knock on the door prevented Twilight from explaining, "It's probably the others." She said, Or Rarity's stallion Friends she wanted me to meet she thought. She opened the door and nearly fainted from shock. For the Grey wind stallion was standing on the other side. "Um hi..." the stallion said, he felt a bit awkward. "I'm sorry I ran off back there." "I..I ..I" Twilight was shocked to see to say the least. She had believed it would have taken a search party to find out where he had vanished to. "Twilight you should answer when someone talks to you. Rarity said a bit perplexed by her behavior. Twilight shook her self out of it. "Sorry I... I just didn't expect to see you again. I'm twilight Sparkle." "Twister Slash." He replied. "Nice to meet you." She said smiling. "We'd better go, Rarity." Apple jack whispered to her white friend. "But.." She sated to argue wanting to wait and see what happened next. "C'mon." Applejack whispered practically dragging her away. Soon they where gone leaving Twilight and Twister alone. "What is this place?" Twister asked twilight as he looked at all the books. "It's the golden oak library." She replied as she watched Twister pick up a Daring Doo book. "Cool I didn't know there where more Daring Doo books." He said as he read the title. "You didn't?" she asked a bit confused. "Well when you lead a very sheltered life you rarely keep up with current events." He said as he settled down to read a bit of the book. Twilight walked over and sat down next to him. "Have you read this one Twilight?" he asked her. "Well a few times." She replied smiling, remembering the first time she had read it. Twilight suddenly had a thought. "Twister, why did you run away after you saved me?" she asked. Twister looked at her and said: "because I had to hide something to protect it." "oh? what was that?" she asked a bit puzzled. "Well it's a long story." he replied. "Don't worry i love long stories." chapter 2: A long story. Something has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter.Chapter 3: Zecora's warningAuthor's Note Hello loyal readers sorry for the wait on this chapter and the fact that the last was only 400 words long. This chapter starts the adventure part of the story so I hope you all enjoy it Chapter 3: Zecora's warning "And the Fluttershy stormed into the room with a whole army of animals running awy from her in terror as she cried out 'Your're going to love me!!!!' " Twilight said as she recounted the adventure she and her friends had had at the grand galloping gala. Twister laughed at the image of shy little Fluttershy chasing the creatures she loved so much. "That MUST have been some site!" "It sure was." Twilight replied as the two of them entered the castle of the two sisters. "so are you going to explain your disappearing trick now?" "Yup!" Twister tapped a nearby wall and it slip aside. "This place is full of secret passages." "Yeah I think AppleJack and Rarity mentioned that." Twilight said as the two walked inside. "Where does this lead to?" "The lower levels where me and my friends live." He replied as he opened another hidden door and lead her though, "If your now the right way to go." "Whoa you guys must really like your privacy." "Ninja do." He opened another door and lead her though. The two of them progress though at least ten more doors before they came out into a small underground city. The cavern was vast and the houses inside of it seemed crammed together like there where one. There was only one lane though them which ended at a last arena where two ponies stood glaring at each other. Twilight was excited and began to ask a dozan questions in almost a single sentence. "Doyouhavealibrary?Arethereanyotherwindponieslivinghere?Arethosetwoponiesgoingtohavearealdualwithrealswords!?howamIabletotalkethisfastanddoninjaslikemuffins?!?!?!?!?!!?!!" "Uh..... Yes.....No....I think so.... Uh you lost me there.... um....." He was a bit unsettled by Twilight's sudden outburst. "So do you wanna see what those guys are doing?" "Of course!" She excitedly said. "Ooooh! This is so cool!" She shivered with excitement The two of them walked over to join the crowd that had gathered. The two stallions in the arena glared at each other as they slowly stalked towards the other. Moving like lightning the two drew their swords with their hooves. Twilight's eyes went wide, she knew it was possible for ponies with pick things up with their hooves, but a heavy metal sword like the ones these two wielded seemed impossible to her. She watched in awe as one slashed and the other either dodged or blocked the attack with his own weapon. Suddenly the two locked blades pressing against the other, testing their own strength. Finally one gave way and leaped back breathing heavily. The other one rushed towards him and swung his sword so hard that the other ponies sword was knocked out of his hoof when he tried to defend him self. The winner took his opponent's sword raised it in victory. "Ok what was that all about." Twilight asked as the crowd dispersed. "Grudge match." Twister Replied. "If two ponies are divided about something they have a battle, winner take all." "Take what exactly?" She asked in reply "Whatever they're fighting over. trading cards, favorite toy, couch, it varies." He turned to see Twilight noting down what he had said. "Great and now how about we go and see your library?" "Sure This way." He lead her towards a large building that seemed to be built into the wall of the cave. there was a stain glass windows on either side of the big double doors that lead in side, they stretched all the way from the first floor to the 5th. The outside was painted a dark shade of blue. As Twilight walked though the doors she gasped in awe as she took in the sight of shelves and shelves of books. She squealed with delight and rushed towards the shelves as a dozen nearby ponies shushed her. "Ohmygosh!ohmygosh!ohmygoshed!!!!" She cried as she zipped around the library finding hundreds of books she had only heard legends about. Twister felt his face go red and ponies shushed twilight over and over. Maybe I shouldn't have brought her here first.... he thought. He spun around igniting a burst of wind that propelled him into the air he used the wind he created to "fly" over to twilight. "Uh Twilight... could you please be a bit more quiet this is a library." She turned around to see him floating off the ground in front of her. "How are you doing that?" She asked. "Wind ponies can fly using their wind powers. It's kinda complicated how we do it." He said, almost sure she'd ask him to explain. Suddenly there was a commotion outside. The two of them poked their head out and saw four ponies carrying Zecora on a stretcher, Twilight rushed to her. "Is she okay?" she asked one of the ponies. "We found her beaten senseless a little way from her house." He replied. "We're taking her to our doctor's right now." "Poor Zecora." Twister said as he and Twilight walked along with them. "Wait you know her?" "All of us do." He replied, "she's one of the few ponies who knows about us. You're now one of them." "Yeah.... I hope she's okay." She said. "I do too. she was always so wise and helped us when strange things happened." Twilight nodded. "Same with me and my friends. And to think that we thought that she was evil once just cause she was different." "Don't worry I'm sure she'll get better." They walked inside of the doctor's house and the two of them watched while a doctor cleaned and bandaged Zecora's wounds. Hours later. Zecora lay on a hospital bed in Ponyville, Twilight and Twister had taken her there. Rainbow Dash lay in the bed parallel to her's, ".....So you're telling me that in that huge collation of books that you only had one daring do book!?!" the Pegasus with rainbow hair and cyan fur asked Twister. "Yeah that's the only problem with being in a underground clan of ninjas." he replied. Rainbow had crashed into tree the day before and was recovering from her injury's. "I'd go crazy if I had only one book." "Beee....ware...." A shaking moan came from Zecora's bed. Twister and Rainbow turned, "Be..w.ware t..the ... P..p..urple.... De...mon..." Chapter 4: Eye of the StormSomething has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter.Chapter 5: Fire, flame. Discord, zane. And a orange car that goes ba-ba bum-bum.Fluttershy opened her eyes and looked out her window. It was the night before the Gala, and for some reason she had woken early. As she looked out her window she saw a bright glare over in sweet apple acres. There was a sudden flash as Discord the spirit of chaos appeared in the room. "Fluttershy!" He said as soon as he appeared. "I know it's late but, I almost forgot to ask you if I could escort you to the gala tomorrow." "Discord what's that glow coming from Sweet Apple Acres?" She asked ignoring the question. "I..." Discord put his hands to his face and used them as binoculars. "Oh no...." ___________________________________________________________________________________________________ AppleJack was fast asleep in her bed, dreaming of the huge apple she had been growing for the upcoming Ponyville fair, when she was suddenly shaken awake by Discord who was hollering in her ear: "WAKE UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" This caused her to leap into the air with a yelp and crash land on the floor of her room. "What in tarnation, is the matter discord!" She grumbled as she stood up. "Well, if you haven't noticed your house, or barn as it were, is on fire." He replied nonchalantly. With a shriek AppleJack rushed into Applebloom's room and found that she was already gone. "Oh! I almost forgot to tell you, I already helped get the others outside." "Then why in tarnation am I still in here!?!" She yelled at him, annoyed beyond her limits. Discord simply snapped his fingers and they appeared outside, Applejack had reappeared in a dress in Discord's arms. "for dramatic effect, duh!" Shaking out of the dress Applejack joined her family as they helplessly watched as they home and orchard. "Who would do this to us?" Applebloom asked as she watched the huge apple go up in flames. "I don't know but my chaos magic is helpless against it." Discord said, "Nothing I tried stopped it." Suddenly out of the smoke and flames a chant came drifting across the air. "Fire, flame. Death, pain. Kill, steal and destroy!" The five of the back away from the chant, only to realize that it was all around them, closing in on them. "Fire, flame. Death, pain. Kill, steal and destroy!" The meaning of this chant was to plain. Suddenly from the burning trees they appeared, ponies. Hundreds of them. Each one with a strange almost living tattoo on they faces. It was a livid purple, shaped like a smoke snake, the mouth posed to devour the left eye of the ponies who wore it. It twisted down to their flanks and covered where their cutie mark should be. Applebloom hugged granny smith tight and closed her eyes in fear. Discord nodded slowly: "So these are the invaders, sheesh what a cliché chant!" "Discord do something!" AppleJack cried. (All Big Mac did was scrape his hooves in the dirt preparing to fight.) "AppleJack I'd love to help really but it seems they're immune to my magic." He said, "Although I could get some backup instead...." He snapped his fingers and suddenly a bright orange derby car leaped into midst the ring of the chanting ponies, who scattered as the car's horn blared: "ba-ba bum-bum ba-ba bum-bum ba bah" The car was covered and had two glass-less windows on either side, a big black 01 was painted on either door as well. The top of the car had a huge Equestrian flag printed on top, with the words; "General Lead" Printed oon next to the flag. Two Ponies climbed out of the car's windows. "How the hay do you think we ended up here Bow?" one of them asked the other. "I don't rightly know Luke but.." Bow started to say when he noticed The Apple Family standing there. "Well if it isn't cousin AppleJack!" The two of them walked over to her. "Luke and Bow Apple!" AJ exclaimed. "Do I know backup or do I know backup!" Discord said to her, she ignored him and went over to her two cousins. _____________________________________________________________________________ After a lot of explaining, the Apple family and Discord rushed along a dirt road to Canterlot. "...So we where just jumping ol' gator back home when we suddenly landed on your farm." "Which was my doing." discord chimed into Bow's story. "Yup, and I'm glad you did." Luke said from the back next to Granny. "Saves us having to explain to Ol' sheriff Deer Wood why we where doing 85 in a 25 zone." "Yeah, he'd probably try to take away our cider-still for that one." Bow added. Discord, who was sitting upside down on the roof of the car, looked ahead of them and saw a huge crowd of the mysterious ponies blocking the road ahead. "Luke do you think you could pull that jump trick off again?" "You bet'cha horns I can." He replied as he sped up towards the crowd. Discord snapped his fingers and a huge ramp appeared. Applejack gaped; "Couldn't you just make a bridge over them?!" she said a bit of panic in her voice. "Of course! but where would the fun be in that?" He replied as the orange Car zoomed up the ramp and leaped over the living road block. "YEEEHAAAW!" AppleBloom cried as Luke blared the horn: "ba-ba bum-bum ba-ba bum-bum ba bah" The car came down with a bump and screeched off into the night towards Canterlot. "Now there's only one more thing worrying me," Applebloom said, "If those bullies where already up here, doesn't that mean they're probably already at Canterlot?" "Most likely, if they could get through Ponyville's defenses, they'd probably have already gotten through Canterlot's." AppleJack said. "We have to warn the Princesses!" Author's Note Wow I feel like I just breezed through this chapter. Only (hopefully) one Chapter left to write and this story's done. Oh and yes Bow and Luke Apple are a Duke's of Hazzard spoof. Heh I love how Discord's always spoofing other TV shows in the main show, so I thought him adding two D.O.H. spoofs to the story would be appropriate. And I don't intend to include Bow and Luke in the next chapter. Sherriff Deer Wood is a spoof on Roscoe P Coltrane (The name Roscoe means Deer Wood and the name Coltrane means Frisky young horse. Crazy huh?) Anyway I hope After the 6th Chapter I can start work on something else. Chapter 6: Love, Madness and The purple demon.Twilight had spent days and weeks searching for anything mildly related to the Purple Demon Zecora had warned of. And after months of work she finally gave up. "There's just nothing to work with...." She said on the night before the Gala, "It's like they're from alternate universe or something....." Suddenly something clicked. "That's it! There's nothing about them anywhere because they're from another universe!" She rushed out of the library to find Candence. As she ran through the Crystal Palace, she noticed an open door, curiosity overcame her and she peeked inside. ________________________________________________________________________________________ Twister was Training. He stood on one hoof, balancing atop a bamboo pole. He closed his eyes and a small whirlwind appeared around him, it sucked his furniture up. As the huge and small items flew randomly through the funnel of air, Twister dodged them, eyes closed. Ducking, leaping, and sometimes knocking them out of the way with his sword. The whirlwind changed to fast spinning tornado, raising Twister off the pole and forcing him along with the furniture. Inside this spinning funnel of destruction, Twister used his wind to force him to the center of the funnel. He reached out to the swirling air and took control of it, forcing it to set the furniture back in it's original places. He then command it to halt. And the room was still again. ____________________________________________________________________________ Twilight had watched this with amazement. As she stepped into the room she forgot why she had been in a rush. "Hey Twister." She said. Twister turned and smiled, "Hi, Twilight." "That was amazing! I never knew you could do that." He rubbed the back of his neck sheepishly. "Yeah, it's part of controlling the wind. That's all a tornado is really." "What's it like being inside of a tornado?" She asked. "Is it scary? Exciting?" "Want me to show you?" "You can do that?!" "Sure, wanna try it?" He held out his hoof. Twilight took it and was suddenly whisked off her feet as Twister formed the tornado around them. Twister smiled as she marveled at the swirling wind. "Amazing isn't it?" He looked her in the eyes and pulled her closer, so that they're faces where only inches away from each other. Twilight felt her face grow hot as their lips meet. After what seemed like an eternity of bliss they pulled away from each other. Twister whispered, "I love you." "I love you too." ______________________________________________________________________ "Sister, do you believe it wise to hold the gala this year?" Luna asked Celestia, as they watched Rarity and her team of decorators setting up the decorations. "our unknown attackers have so far been beaten back at every attempted attack." She replied, "I have no fear that the gala will be endangered. Plus I am curious to meet Twilight's coltfriend." "Yes, I have been wondering about what this 'Wind Pony' to like." Luna though couldn't help but wonder; Is he all he appears to be? Could he be involved with the attackers? He did appear right before they first attacked...... _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Twilight, Shining Armor, Cadence, and Twister walked into Canterlot Castle together. Celestia greated them and they walked into the grand hall. Fluttershy rushed up to them. "Have any of you seen Discord or Applejack lately?" She asked urgently. They shook their heads. "Why do you ask?" Twilight said. "Because the invaders set fire to Sweet Apple Acres yesterday night and I sent Discord to help. And I haven't seen either one of them since then." "That's not good." Twister said. "We should go look for them." Twilight nodded in agreement. But before any action was made a sound like that of rain was heard. And a ghostly chant rang through the castle. "Fire, flame. Death, pain. Kill, steal and destroy!" The chant sent shivers through all gathered inside. The sound that was of rain was horribly realized to be the sound of marching hooves all in prefect sync. Behind Twilight a mare screamed and fainted. Others panicked and ran out of the hall, their fate was never know. (Although I have it on good authority from Zecora that they fled into the Everfree and lived their days out happily.) The doors that lead to the garden burst open as the foyer's doors did. and in marched an army. They surrounded the guests and began to close around them. A burst of light blasted them back as Celestia and Luna landed in front of their guests. Twilight, Twister, and Cadence joined the two And Shining Armor began to guide the guests towards safety. "What manner of creatures are these," Luna said as the invaders stood back up and began to chant again. "their number is like that of ants!" The four alicorns blasted a path for the guests to escape by while Twister used his wind blasts to keep the invaders off of them. "There's too many! " Twilight cried in frustration. "Yes there are, hee-hee." A voice, that seemed to come from nowhere yet everywhere, said. Twister looked around for the source of the voice for a fleeting moment before he let loose a swirling tornado. It caught up the invaders and prevented their escape. "That's it....." Twister murmured. He unleashed more Tornados that caught up the remaining Invaders. The others relaxed as Twister united his Tornados into one and sent it in the garden to swirl and spin in place. "You did it!" Luna said as she sat down exhausted on the floor. The guests filed out of the castle frightened, exhausted and relieved. "Who could have created an army like this?" Celestia asked herself silently as she watched the tornado whirl in place. "Oh someone terrible.. hee hee." the haunting voice rant through the castle again although this time the source was plainly seen. A wide grin seemed to hang above their heads. Slowly a head appeared then a body and a tail. The creature was pony shaped and had Lilac fur striped with purple. Her mane was covered with cow licks, as was her tail, her eyes where the same color as Twilight's but they seemed to be filled with sadness and longing. Altogether the creature looked truly insane. It's resemblance to twilight was disturbing, as if this pony was her. Her cutiemark backed this up well only to well as it was a six pointed star with an huge grin plastered on it. "What the....?" Twilight said in utter astonishment. "Oh my poor little ponies." The strange pony said, "forced to gyre and gimble in the wabe..." She vanished only to reappear above the door to the grand hall. "He is merciless little ponies.... Be warned......" She vanished. Suddenly a loud thud was heard. The five of them rushed in the foyer and saw that the sound had come from the huge door falling of it's hinges. A strange figure stood on it his red eyes stared out at them from under what appeared to be a hood that was attached to it's skin. It wasn't pony shaped at all. It stood on what appear to be two legs and it's skin, that is the only word that could come close to describing it, was a very dark purple almost black to the point that if it was in the dark it wouldn't have been seen but for it's glowing red eyes. It moved towards them slithering more then waking. It had hands, pointed like a griffons talons, it rubbed them together as it came towards them. It smiled from under the hood of skin flashing a row of evilly pointed teeth. It chuckled and stopped before them. It bowed mockingly to the four princesses. "Your majesties." It's voice was mocking but was deep as a stallions. "What a great honor it is to see you once again." "We have never beheld thee before creature." Luna stated. "Oh yes...." he said, "Those others were but reflections....." "Others..." Celestia muttered, her mind flashing back to the other universes she had visited. Could this creature have traveled through them too? "Of course you would know all about that, your highness, seeing as you had traveled the multiverse as well." He said to her. "Wait you've traveled through other worlds too!?" Twilight exclaimed. "Of course always the curious one Princess Twilight....." He gleaming eyes looked into her and she shivered. "You know what they say about that..hee hee.." The stranger turned at the voice. "So you are here, Cheshire......" The striped grinning pony appeared again. "That's Miss Cheshire Twilight to you, Sorcerer!" Her voice was suddenly angrier then before. He laughed. "So you think yourself free from my curse just because you escaped once?" "Thrice actually." "No matter you can not save them...." "I can try that's all that matters" "Fool! Prepare to die with them then!" He stretched out his hand and dark flames seemed to shoot out from it. They formed into the shapes of ponies. And slowly they became solid forming to the shapes of the mane six and the three princesses and Spike. There were at least a dozen different versions of them. Some where even zombies, others where super hero, or dressed as if they were from the 80s. Their faces were all blank and expressionless, their eyes didn't blink, they were not breathing. "And yes Twilight they were other versions of yourself and your friends." Twister let loose a burst of wind pushing the ghost like creatures outside. The Sorcerer suddenly fired a blast of demonic power at Twister, throwing him across the hall into the wall. He fell limp onto the tile. A puddle of blood began to form beneath him. "Twister!" Twister cried in horror and ran to him. Cheshire appeared above them as she cradled him in her arms. "No..." Cheshire looked at the hole where he had hit. A shining yellow gem lay in the hollow wall. She took it in her hoofs. "The legend was true..... This world does have a chance......" She floated down to twilight and lay the gem on Twister's bloody chest. "Cast the spell you used to reveal the elements of harmony..." Through tears she nodded and her horn began to glow. Suddenly a burst of bright light seemed to pull Him in the air. His eyes snapped open as the windows of the castle exploded and a wind of unmatched power rushed in. It surrounded him and the yellow gem burst into sharps and reformed in the shape of a tornado. A golden necklace like that of the other elements formed instantly as the seventh Element of Harmony touched his chest. He turned towards the Sorcerer. "I am the seven element, Self-Control. Fight me if you dare....." "This was unforeseen. But you will still die boy......" "Fool! I have just come back to life! I no longing fear death!" With that he blasted towards the purple monster and forced him out into the open air. He slammed his hoof into the demon knocking him straight up! Blasting after him Twister punched him again knocking him into the mountain side. Suddenly "Ba-ba bum-bum ba-ba bum-bum ba bah!" echoed across the mountain as a orange dodge-changer roared down the side of the mountain and over the Sorcerer! "Ya'll are all insane!" Applejack screamed as Discord levitated the car over to Twister. "get me away from these loons!" She screamed out the window. "I don't even know how they got their license!!" Twister sighed and rolled his eyes. "We have a bigger problem AJ. Look." he point at the enraged purple skin demon who roared at them in rage. "Discord." "Yes?" the chaotic creature replied. "I'm going to need your help to defeat this guy." He said as a blast of demonic power whizzed past him. Cheshire appeared next to him. "Can I help?" she asked holding her hoof out creating a light shield that deflected another blast. "Yes, distract him." "Of course." she vanished and reappeared above the Sorcerer who turned and gave chase to the grinning pony. "Discord can you open a portal to Tartartus?" "Piece of cake." He held up a cake shaped like tartartus' cells. "Good when I say 'go to hell' open the portal." Twister zoomed off after the Sorcerer. Cheshire vanished just as Twister belted the purple devil with an uppercut that sent him flying into the sky. He quickly zoomed after him. The two locked in mid air and began to claw and punch as they fell back to earth. "I will kill you boy just as I will kill your friends." "No I won't let you.." Twister Grunted as the monster's claws closed around his throat. "HAH! I've killed millions of your little friends fool!" The Demon laughed. "I even killed the ones who claimed to be unbeatable!" "Maybe but you won't kill me or my friends!!" Twister channeled his strength into his hooves and punched the demon off him. "GO" Then he let loosed a blasted of hurricane force wind straight down! "TO HELL!!" The Demon laughed insanely as he was forced into a huge red portal by the blast of air! "You haven't seen the last of me boy!!!!" He called as the portal closed. The phantom ponies vanished and all gathered relaxed. Discord teleported the Apples, Cheshire and Twister back to the castle to a hero's return. The four alicorns and their subjects cheered as they all realized it was over. Twister plopped down on the floor and relaxed his tense body. He took off the element he was wearing. The shiny yellow gen was shaped like a tornado. "Heh I never would have guessed it. I'm a barer of harmony." "Yes you are." Twilight said as she sat down next to him. "Thank you." She lightly kissed him on the cheek. "You call that a thank you kiss?" Twister said. He suddenly turned and press his lips to her in a long passionate kiss. The gather crowd cheered as They pulled apart, Twilight blushing bright red. "C'mon let's go!" Twilight smile as they rose into the air and flew off on Twister's wind. The End.....?

Chapter 1: missing books and near death Author's Note Hi thanks for clicking on my story. I'd like to note before you read this that the character I introduce in this story has nothing to do with Ninjago. And this story takes place the day after the episode: Castle mania. Also this is an alternate universe so the events that follow will not match up to later episodes. Thanks :) Chapter 1: missing books and near death "thanks for helping me transport these ancient books back to ponyville Spike." Twilight Sparkle, a lavender colored alicorn with a dark purple mane with a pink streak though it, said to her baby dragon assistant, whose arms where full of books. "N..n.o...o Prob...lem..." He said grunting under his load. Twilight of course used her magic to carry her load, which included 5 shelfs worth of books. She carried them over to a table in the middle of the library. Setting them down on it she pulled a old chair up on it's rear legs, activating a secret door. Two shelfs slid away to reveal the door. "C'mon Spike, those old books won't move themselves." Twilight said as she walked though the door into a hidden room. Normally this room was filled with the rarest of books. But as she entered she saw to her horror that they where all gone! "What?! No!!" She rushed into the room and franticly began searching for the missing Books. "Maybe we already cleaned this out and you forgot." Spike said trying to calm her down to no effect. As She ran about the room looking everywhere for the books, she stepped though a red beam of light. Suddenly the room began to shake. "Uh Twilight..." "Now Spike I have to find the books! They can't have gotten far!" Suddenly a book self fell over, landing right on her tail! "Twilight!" Spike yelled as the ceiling began to collapse. A falling bookcase knocked Spike clear of the room, and knocked him unconscious. Twilight closed her eyes and tried to use her magic to create a shield to protect her from the falling pieces of the room. Her horn flicked and failed. "No!" She cried in defeat. She closed her eyes preparing for the end. She suddenly felt a light breeze on her face, opening her eyes, she saw to her amazement a small tornado rushing around her and the bookcase which held her tail captive. The bookcase and herself suddenly began to rise into the air. The wirlwind whipped around her and she found herself staring into a grey stallion's eyes, his mane was black and had red stripes though it, his light brown eyes stared back at hers for an instant. Suddenly she was back in the library standing dizzly next to the still knocked out spike. The strange stallion was already leaping out of a nearby window. "Wait who are you?!" Twilight called as he vanished. She quickly flew up to the window and scanned the horizon looking for him. "Where could he have gone?" Twilight flew down the gorge and search for a while before she returned to Spike, who by now was awake. "Twilight!" The teary eye baby dragon cried, "you're alive!" he rushed to her and hugged her. Hugging him back she wondered about her mysterious hero. Who was he? How was he able to do that spinning trick? Why'd he rush off after he had saved her? And most of all, would she ever see him again? "Come on Spike we have to get these books to Canterlot." She use her magic to pick the books up and they left. __________________________________________________________________________________________ It had been a week since Twilight's Adventure in the two sister's castle, she had spent most of her time researching the strange spinning power of her unknown hero. As she search though the books in the canterlot library she found one entitled: Extinct and Rare Equestrian creatures: ponies, dragons and minitors. "This looks promising," She said cheerfully as she opened it to the index and read though until she found a promising chapter entitled "Wind Ponies? what in equestria is a wind pony?" Twilight wondered aloud. Flipping to the chapter she began to read. Wind ponies where first born when a peguis with a talent for the speed of the wind gave birth to an earth pony with the power to control the wind. As time passed this ponies decendents began to repeat this talent in many different ways some where able to create only gust while others could control hurrucanes or tornados. During the 100 years that luna was trapped in the moon these ponies vanished from history and have become more of a legend. "Could I have seen a wind pony?!" Twilight gasped. "This could be the find of a life time! just think after all these years they still exist, they're not extinct!" Standing up Twilight began to plan how to find this mystrious pony and learn more about him. A knock on the door woke Twilight from her thoughts. "I'm coming." she called as she walked to the door. She opened it and Applejack and Rarity walked in. "Hi girls." she said. "What's up?" "Hello Twilight dear." Rarity said. "Apple Jack and I were... well worried about you." "You were? why?" Twilight asked a bit confused. "I'm okay." "Well it's just that you.." Applejack paused as she searched for the right words, "..Hardy ever git out of the library." "Quiet right, you should go and meet some stallions dear." rarity said, "it's not heathy to stay cooped up inside all the time, let alone never dating." Twilight pondered this for a moment. 'Maybe they're right....' She thought, 'I should get out more. But I don't know any stallions I'd like to date.' She suddenly remember the strange wind pony. 'Maybe if I found him...' "Okay girls, I'll try." She finally said. "That's great Twilight!" Applejack said. "Wonderful. I'll go gather some colts for you to choose from." Rarity said and started toward the door. "Thanks Rarity but I already have an idea." Twilight said stopping Rarity in her tracks. "You do?" She asked. "Yup." "What'cha got in mind Twilight?" Applejack asked. A sudden knock on the door prevented Twilight from explaining, "It's probably the others." She said, Or Rarity's stallion Friends she wanted me to meet she thought. She opened the door and nearly fainted from shock. For the Grey wind stallion was standing on the other side. "Um hi..." the stallion said, he felt a bit awkward. "I'm sorry I ran off back there." "I..I ..I" Twilight was shocked to see to say the least. She had believed it would have taken a search party to find out where he had vanished to. "Twilight you should answer when someone talks to you. Rarity said a bit perplexed by her behavior. Twilight shook her self out of it. "Sorry I... I just didn't expect to see you again. I'm twilight Sparkle." "Twister Slash." He replied. "Nice to meet you." She said smiling. "We'd better go, Rarity." Apple jack whispered to her white friend. "But.." She sated to argue wanting to wait and see what happened next. "C'mon." Applejack whispered practically dragging her away. Soon they where gone leaving Twilight and Twister alone. "What is this place?" Twister asked twilight as he looked at all the books. "It's the golden oak library." She replied as she watched Twister pick up a Daring Doo book. "Cool I didn't know there where more Daring Doo books." He said as he read the title. "You didn't?" she asked a bit confused. "Well when you lead a very sheltered life you rarely keep up with current events." He said as he settled down to read a bit of the book. Twilight walked over and sat down next to him. "Have you read this one Twilight?" he asked her. "Well a few times." She replied smiling, remembering the first time she had read it. Twilight suddenly had a thought. "Twister, why did you run away after you saved me?" she asked. Twister looked at her and said: "because I had to hide something to protect it." "oh? what was that?" she asked a bit puzzled. "Well it's a long story." he replied. "Don't worry i love long stories."
chapter 2: A long story. Something has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter.
Chapter 3: Zecora's warningAuthor's Note Hello loyal readers sorry for the wait on this chapter and the fact that the last was only 400 words long. This chapter starts the adventure part of the story so I hope you all enjoy it Chapter 3: Zecora's warning "And the Fluttershy stormed into the room with a whole army of animals running awy from her in terror as she cried out 'Your're going to love me!!!!' " Twilight said as she recounted the adventure she and her friends had had at the grand galloping gala. Twister laughed at the image of shy little Fluttershy chasing the creatures she loved so much. "That MUST have been some site!" "It sure was." Twilight replied as the two of them entered the castle of the two sisters. "so are you going to explain your disappearing trick now?" "Yup!" Twister tapped a nearby wall and it slip aside. "This place is full of secret passages." "Yeah I think AppleJack and Rarity mentioned that." Twilight said as the two walked inside. "Where does this lead to?" "The lower levels where me and my friends live." He replied as he opened another hidden door and lead her though, "If your now the right way to go." "Whoa you guys must really like your privacy." "Ninja do." He opened another door and lead her though. The two of them progress though at least ten more doors before they came out into a small underground city. The cavern was vast and the houses inside of it seemed crammed together like there where one. There was only one lane though them which ended at a last arena where two ponies stood glaring at each other. Twilight was excited and began to ask a dozan questions in almost a single sentence. "Doyouhavealibrary?Arethereanyotherwindponieslivinghere?Arethosetwoponiesgoingtohavearealdualwithrealswords!?howamIabletotalkethisfastanddoninjaslikemuffins?!?!?!?!?!!?!!" "Uh..... Yes.....No....I think so.... Uh you lost me there.... um....." He was a bit unsettled by Twilight's sudden outburst. "So do you wanna see what those guys are doing?" "Of course!" She excitedly said. "Ooooh! This is so cool!" She shivered with excitement The two of them walked over to join the crowd that had gathered. The two stallions in the arena glared at each other as they slowly stalked towards the other. Moving like lightning the two drew their swords with their hooves. Twilight's eyes went wide, she knew it was possible for ponies with pick things up with their hooves, but a heavy metal sword like the ones these two wielded seemed impossible to her. She watched in awe as one slashed and the other either dodged or blocked the attack with his own weapon. Suddenly the two locked blades pressing against the other, testing their own strength. Finally one gave way and leaped back breathing heavily. The other one rushed towards him and swung his sword so hard that the other ponies sword was knocked out of his hoof when he tried to defend him self. The winner took his opponent's sword raised it in victory. "Ok what was that all about." Twilight asked as the crowd dispersed. "Grudge match." Twister Replied. "If two ponies are divided about something they have a battle, winner take all." "Take what exactly?" She asked in reply "Whatever they're fighting over. trading cards, favorite toy, couch, it varies." He turned to see Twilight noting down what he had said. "Great and now how about we go and see your library?" "Sure This way." He lead her towards a large building that seemed to be built into the wall of the cave. there was a stain glass windows on either side of the big double doors that lead in side, they stretched all the way from the first floor to the 5th. The outside was painted a dark shade of blue. As Twilight walked though the doors she gasped in awe as she took in the sight of shelves and shelves of books. She squealed with delight and rushed towards the shelves as a dozen nearby ponies shushed her. "Ohmygosh!ohmygosh!ohmygoshed!!!!" She cried as she zipped around the library finding hundreds of books she had only heard legends about. Twister felt his face go red and ponies shushed twilight over and over. Maybe I shouldn't have brought her here first.... he thought. He spun around igniting a burst of wind that propelled him into the air he used the wind he created to "fly" over to twilight. "Uh Twilight... could you please be a bit more quiet this is a library." She turned around to see him floating off the ground in front of her. "How are you doing that?" She asked. "Wind ponies can fly using their wind powers. It's kinda complicated how we do it." He said, almost sure she'd ask him to explain. Suddenly there was a commotion outside. The two of them poked their head out and saw four ponies carrying Zecora on a stretcher, Twilight rushed to her. "Is she okay?" she asked one of the ponies. "We found her beaten senseless a little way from her house." He replied. "We're taking her to our doctor's right now." "Poor Zecora." Twister said as he and Twilight walked along with them. "Wait you know her?" "All of us do." He replied, "she's one of the few ponies who knows about us. You're now one of them." "Yeah.... I hope she's okay." She said. "I do too. she was always so wise and helped us when strange things happened." Twilight nodded. "Same with me and my friends. And to think that we thought that she was evil once just cause she was different." "Don't worry I'm sure she'll get better." They walked inside of the doctor's house and the two of them watched while a doctor cleaned and bandaged Zecora's wounds. Hours later. Zecora lay on a hospital bed in Ponyville, Twilight and Twister had taken her there. Rainbow Dash lay in the bed parallel to her's, ".....So you're telling me that in that huge collation of books that you only had one daring do book!?!" the Pegasus with rainbow hair and cyan fur asked Twister. "Yeah that's the only problem with being in a underground clan of ninjas." he replied. Rainbow had crashed into tree the day before and was recovering from her injury's. "I'd go crazy if I had only one book." "Beee....ware...." A shaking moan came from Zecora's bed. Twister and Rainbow turned, "Be..w.ware t..the ... P..p..urple.... De...mon..."
Chapter 4: Eye of the StormSomething has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter.
Chapter 5: Fire, flame. Discord, zane. And a orange car that goes ba-ba bum-bum.Fluttershy opened her eyes and looked out her window. It was the night before the Gala, and for some reason she had woken early. As she looked out her window she saw a bright glare over in sweet apple acres. There was a sudden flash as Discord the spirit of chaos appeared in the room. "Fluttershy!" He said as soon as he appeared. "I know it's late but, I almost forgot to ask you if I could escort you to the gala tomorrow." "Discord what's that glow coming from Sweet Apple Acres?" She asked ignoring the question. "I..." Discord put his hands to his face and used them as binoculars. "Oh no...." ___________________________________________________________________________________________________ AppleJack was fast asleep in her bed, dreaming of the huge apple she had been growing for the upcoming Ponyville fair, when she was suddenly shaken awake by Discord who was hollering in her ear: "WAKE UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" This caused her to leap into the air with a yelp and crash land on the floor of her room. "What in tarnation, is the matter discord!" She grumbled as she stood up. "Well, if you haven't noticed your house, or barn as it were, is on fire." He replied nonchalantly. With a shriek AppleJack rushed into Applebloom's room and found that she was already gone. "Oh! I almost forgot to tell you, I already helped get the others outside." "Then why in tarnation am I still in here!?!" She yelled at him, annoyed beyond her limits. Discord simply snapped his fingers and they appeared outside, Applejack had reappeared in a dress in Discord's arms. "for dramatic effect, duh!" Shaking out of the dress Applejack joined her family as they helplessly watched as they home and orchard. "Who would do this to us?" Applebloom asked as she watched the huge apple go up in flames. "I don't know but my chaos magic is helpless against it." Discord said, "Nothing I tried stopped it." Suddenly out of the smoke and flames a chant came drifting across the air. "Fire, flame. Death, pain. Kill, steal and destroy!" The five of the back away from the chant, only to realize that it was all around them, closing in on them. "Fire, flame. Death, pain. Kill, steal and destroy!" The meaning of this chant was to plain. Suddenly from the burning trees they appeared, ponies. Hundreds of them. Each one with a strange almost living tattoo on they faces. It was a livid purple, shaped like a smoke snake, the mouth posed to devour the left eye of the ponies who wore it. It twisted down to their flanks and covered where their cutie mark should be. Applebloom hugged granny smith tight and closed her eyes in fear. Discord nodded slowly: "So these are the invaders, sheesh what a cliché chant!" "Discord do something!" AppleJack cried. (All Big Mac did was scrape his hooves in the dirt preparing to fight.) "AppleJack I'd love to help really but it seems they're immune to my magic." He said, "Although I could get some backup instead...." He snapped his fingers and suddenly a bright orange derby car leaped into midst the ring of the chanting ponies, who scattered as the car's horn blared: "ba-ba bum-bum ba-ba bum-bum ba bah" The car was covered and had two glass-less windows on either side, a big black 01 was painted on either door as well. The top of the car had a huge Equestrian flag printed on top, with the words; "General Lead" Printed oon next to the flag. Two Ponies climbed out of the car's windows. "How the hay do you think we ended up here Bow?" one of them asked the other. "I don't rightly know Luke but.." Bow started to say when he noticed The Apple Family standing there. "Well if it isn't cousin AppleJack!" The two of them walked over to her. "Luke and Bow Apple!" AJ exclaimed. "Do I know backup or do I know backup!" Discord said to her, she ignored him and went over to her two cousins. _____________________________________________________________________________ After a lot of explaining, the Apple family and Discord rushed along a dirt road to Canterlot. "...So we where just jumping ol' gator back home when we suddenly landed on your farm." "Which was my doing." discord chimed into Bow's story. "Yup, and I'm glad you did." Luke said from the back next to Granny. "Saves us having to explain to Ol' sheriff Deer Wood why we where doing 85 in a 25 zone." "Yeah, he'd probably try to take away our cider-still for that one." Bow added. Discord, who was sitting upside down on the roof of the car, looked ahead of them and saw a huge crowd of the mysterious ponies blocking the road ahead. "Luke do you think you could pull that jump trick off again?" "You bet'cha horns I can." He replied as he sped up towards the crowd. Discord snapped his fingers and a huge ramp appeared. Applejack gaped; "Couldn't you just make a bridge over them?!" she said a bit of panic in her voice. "Of course! but where would the fun be in that?" He replied as the orange Car zoomed up the ramp and leaped over the living road block. "YEEEHAAAW!" AppleBloom cried as Luke blared the horn: "ba-ba bum-bum ba-ba bum-bum ba bah" The car came down with a bump and screeched off into the night towards Canterlot. "Now there's only one more thing worrying me," Applebloom said, "If those bullies where already up here, doesn't that mean they're probably already at Canterlot?" "Most likely, if they could get through Ponyville's defenses, they'd probably have already gotten through Canterlot's." AppleJack said. "We have to warn the Princesses!" Author's Note Wow I feel like I just breezed through this chapter. Only (hopefully) one Chapter left to write and this story's done. Oh and yes Bow and Luke Apple are a Duke's of Hazzard spoof. Heh I love how Discord's always spoofing other TV shows in the main show, so I thought him adding two D.O.H. spoofs to the story would be appropriate. And I don't intend to include Bow and Luke in the next chapter. Sherriff Deer Wood is a spoof on Roscoe P Coltrane (The name Roscoe means Deer Wood and the name Coltrane means Frisky young horse. Crazy huh?) Anyway I hope After the 6th Chapter I can start work on something else.
Chapter 6: Love, Madness and The purple demon.Twilight had spent days and weeks searching for anything mildly related to the Purple Demon Zecora had warned of. And after months of work she finally gave up. "There's just nothing to work with...." She said on the night before the Gala, "It's like they're from alternate universe or something....." Suddenly something clicked. "That's it! There's nothing about them anywhere because they're from another universe!" She rushed out of the library to find Candence. As she ran through the Crystal Palace, she noticed an open door, curiosity overcame her and she peeked inside. ________________________________________________________________________________________ Twister was Training. He stood on one hoof, balancing atop a bamboo pole. He closed his eyes and a small whirlwind appeared around him, it sucked his furniture up. As the huge and small items flew randomly through the funnel of air, Twister dodged them, eyes closed. Ducking, leaping, and sometimes knocking them out of the way with his sword. The whirlwind changed to fast spinning tornado, raising Twister off the pole and forcing him along with the furniture. Inside this spinning funnel of destruction, Twister used his wind to force him to the center of the funnel. He reached out to the swirling air and took control of it, forcing it to set the furniture back in it's original places. He then command it to halt. And the room was still again. ____________________________________________________________________________ Twilight had watched this with amazement. As she stepped into the room she forgot why she had been in a rush. "Hey Twister." She said. Twister turned and smiled, "Hi, Twilight." "That was amazing! I never knew you could do that." He rubbed the back of his neck sheepishly. "Yeah, it's part of controlling the wind. That's all a tornado is really." "What's it like being inside of a tornado?" She asked. "Is it scary? Exciting?" "Want me to show you?" "You can do that?!" "Sure, wanna try it?" He held out his hoof. Twilight took it and was suddenly whisked off her feet as Twister formed the tornado around them. Twister smiled as she marveled at the swirling wind. "Amazing isn't it?" He looked her in the eyes and pulled her closer, so that they're faces where only inches away from each other. Twilight felt her face grow hot as their lips meet. After what seemed like an eternity of bliss they pulled away from each other. Twister whispered, "I love you." "I love you too." ______________________________________________________________________ "Sister, do you believe it wise to hold the gala this year?" Luna asked Celestia, as they watched Rarity and her team of decorators setting up the decorations. "our unknown attackers have so far been beaten back at every attempted attack." She replied, "I have no fear that the gala will be endangered. Plus I am curious to meet Twilight's coltfriend." "Yes, I have been wondering about what this 'Wind Pony' to like." Luna though couldn't help but wonder; Is he all he appears to be? Could he be involved with the attackers? He did appear right before they first attacked...... _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Twilight, Shining Armor, Cadence, and Twister walked into Canterlot Castle together. Celestia greated them and they walked into the grand hall. Fluttershy rushed up to them. "Have any of you seen Discord or Applejack lately?" She asked urgently. They shook their heads. "Why do you ask?" Twilight said. "Because the invaders set fire to Sweet Apple Acres yesterday night and I sent Discord to help. And I haven't seen either one of them since then." "That's not good." Twister said. "We should go look for them." Twilight nodded in agreement. But before any action was made a sound like that of rain was heard. And a ghostly chant rang through the castle. "Fire, flame. Death, pain. Kill, steal and destroy!" The chant sent shivers through all gathered inside. The sound that was of rain was horribly realized to be the sound of marching hooves all in prefect sync. Behind Twilight a mare screamed and fainted. Others panicked and ran out of the hall, their fate was never know. (Although I have it on good authority from Zecora that they fled into the Everfree and lived their days out happily.) The doors that lead to the garden burst open as the foyer's doors did. and in marched an army. They surrounded the guests and began to close around them. A burst of light blasted them back as Celestia and Luna landed in front of their guests. Twilight, Twister, and Cadence joined the two And Shining Armor began to guide the guests towards safety. "What manner of creatures are these," Luna said as the invaders stood back up and began to chant again. "their number is like that of ants!" The four alicorns blasted a path for the guests to escape by while Twister used his wind blasts to keep the invaders off of them. "There's too many! " Twilight cried in frustration. "Yes there are, hee-hee." A voice, that seemed to come from nowhere yet everywhere, said. Twister looked around for the source of the voice for a fleeting moment before he let loose a swirling tornado. It caught up the invaders and prevented their escape. "That's it....." Twister murmured. He unleashed more Tornados that caught up the remaining Invaders. The others relaxed as Twister united his Tornados into one and sent it in the garden to swirl and spin in place. "You did it!" Luna said as she sat down exhausted on the floor. The guests filed out of the castle frightened, exhausted and relieved. "Who could have created an army like this?" Celestia asked herself silently as she watched the tornado whirl in place. "Oh someone terrible.. hee hee." the haunting voice rant through the castle again although this time the source was plainly seen. A wide grin seemed to hang above their heads. Slowly a head appeared then a body and a tail. The creature was pony shaped and had Lilac fur striped with purple. Her mane was covered with cow licks, as was her tail, her eyes where the same color as Twilight's but they seemed to be filled with sadness and longing. Altogether the creature looked truly insane. It's resemblance to twilight was disturbing, as if this pony was her. Her cutiemark backed this up well only to well as it was a six pointed star with an huge grin plastered on it. "What the....?" Twilight said in utter astonishment. "Oh my poor little ponies." The strange pony said, "forced to gyre and gimble in the wabe..." She vanished only to reappear above the door to the grand hall. "He is merciless little ponies.... Be warned......" She vanished. Suddenly a loud thud was heard. The five of them rushed in the foyer and saw that the sound had come from the huge door falling of it's hinges. A strange figure stood on it his red eyes stared out at them from under what appeared to be a hood that was attached to it's skin. It wasn't pony shaped at all. It stood on what appear to be two legs and it's skin, that is the only word that could come close to describing it, was a very dark purple almost black to the point that if it was in the dark it wouldn't have been seen but for it's glowing red eyes. It moved towards them slithering more then waking. It had hands, pointed like a griffons talons, it rubbed them together as it came towards them. It smiled from under the hood of skin flashing a row of evilly pointed teeth. It chuckled and stopped before them. It bowed mockingly to the four princesses. "Your majesties." It's voice was mocking but was deep as a stallions. "What a great honor it is to see you once again." "We have never beheld thee before creature." Luna stated. "Oh yes...." he said, "Those others were but reflections....." "Others..." Celestia muttered, her mind flashing back to the other universes she had visited. Could this creature have traveled through them too? "Of course you would know all about that, your highness, seeing as you had traveled the multiverse as well." He said to her. "Wait you've traveled through other worlds too!?" Twilight exclaimed. "Of course always the curious one Princess Twilight....." He gleaming eyes looked into her and she shivered. "You know what they say about that..hee hee.." The stranger turned at the voice. "So you are here, Cheshire......" The striped grinning pony appeared again. "That's Miss Cheshire Twilight to you, Sorcerer!" Her voice was suddenly angrier then before. He laughed. "So you think yourself free from my curse just because you escaped once?" "Thrice actually." "No matter you can not save them...." "I can try that's all that matters" "Fool! Prepare to die with them then!" He stretched out his hand and dark flames seemed to shoot out from it. They formed into the shapes of ponies. And slowly they became solid forming to the shapes of the mane six and the three princesses and Spike. There were at least a dozen different versions of them. Some where even zombies, others where super hero, or dressed as if they were from the 80s. Their faces were all blank and expressionless, their eyes didn't blink, they were not breathing. "And yes Twilight they were other versions of yourself and your friends." Twister let loose a burst of wind pushing the ghost like creatures outside. The Sorcerer suddenly fired a blast of demonic power at Twister, throwing him across the hall into the wall. He fell limp onto the tile. A puddle of blood began to form beneath him. "Twister!" Twister cried in horror and ran to him. Cheshire appeared above them as she cradled him in her arms. "No..." Cheshire looked at the hole where he had hit. A shining yellow gem lay in the hollow wall. She took it in her hoofs. "The legend was true..... This world does have a chance......" She floated down to twilight and lay the gem on Twister's bloody chest. "Cast the spell you used to reveal the elements of harmony..." Through tears she nodded and her horn began to glow. Suddenly a burst of bright light seemed to pull Him in the air. His eyes snapped open as the windows of the castle exploded and a wind of unmatched power rushed in. It surrounded him and the yellow gem burst into sharps and reformed in the shape of a tornado. A golden necklace like that of the other elements formed instantly as the seventh Element of Harmony touched his chest. He turned towards the Sorcerer. "I am the seven element, Self-Control. Fight me if you dare....." "This was unforeseen. But you will still die boy......" "Fool! I have just come back to life! I no longing fear death!" With that he blasted towards the purple monster and forced him out into the open air. He slammed his hoof into the demon knocking him straight up! Blasting after him Twister punched him again knocking him into the mountain side. Suddenly "Ba-ba bum-bum ba-ba bum-bum ba bah!" echoed across the mountain as a orange dodge-changer roared down the side of the mountain and over the Sorcerer! "Ya'll are all insane!" Applejack screamed as Discord levitated the car over to Twister. "get me away from these loons!" She screamed out the window. "I don't even know how they got their license!!" Twister sighed and rolled his eyes. "We have a bigger problem AJ. Look." he point at the enraged purple skin demon who roared at them in rage. "Discord." "Yes?" the chaotic creature replied. "I'm going to need your help to defeat this guy." He said as a blast of demonic power whizzed past him. Cheshire appeared next to him. "Can I help?" she asked holding her hoof out creating a light shield that deflected another blast. "Yes, distract him." "Of course." she vanished and reappeared above the Sorcerer who turned and gave chase to the grinning pony. "Discord can you open a portal to Tartartus?" "Piece of cake." He held up a cake shaped like tartartus' cells. "Good when I say 'go to hell' open the portal." Twister zoomed off after the Sorcerer. Cheshire vanished just as Twister belted the purple devil with an uppercut that sent him flying into the sky. He quickly zoomed after him. The two locked in mid air and began to claw and punch as they fell back to earth. "I will kill you boy just as I will kill your friends." "No I won't let you.." Twister Grunted as the monster's claws closed around his throat. "HAH! I've killed millions of your little friends fool!" The Demon laughed. "I even killed the ones who claimed to be unbeatable!" "Maybe but you won't kill me or my friends!!" Twister channeled his strength into his hooves and punched the demon off him. "GO" Then he let loosed a blasted of hurricane force wind straight down! "TO HELL!!" The Demon laughed insanely as he was forced into a huge red portal by the blast of air! "You haven't seen the last of me boy!!!!" He called as the portal closed. The phantom ponies vanished and all gathered relaxed. Discord teleported the Apples, Cheshire and Twister back to the castle to a hero's return. The four alicorns and their subjects cheered as they all realized it was over. Twister plopped down on the floor and relaxed his tense body. He took off the element he was wearing. The shiny yellow gen was shaped like a tornado. "Heh I never would have guessed it. I'm a barer of harmony." "Yes you are." Twilight said as she sat down next to him. "Thank you." She lightly kissed him on the cheek. "You call that a thank you kiss?" Twister said. He suddenly turned and press his lips to her in a long passionate kiss. The gather crowd cheered as They pulled apart, Twilight blushing bright red. "C'mon let's go!" Twilight smile as they rose into the air and flew off on Twister's wind. The End.....?

Epilogue"Commander!" A green pony with blue hair cried as a explosion separated him from the commander of his ship. The pony turned to the screen to see a glowing yellow ball of light following their starship. "No NOT THEM!" He cried in horror. "There's no way we can make it I must fire the cargo to it's designation!" Grabbing a red cover he whipped it open and slammed his hoove down ona red button. A round capsule with a glowing green symbol fire from the starship's escape pod chamber. The Pony screamed as a bright yellow light incinerated the ship and him along with it. _____________________________________________________________________ "The Device has been fired like a cannon ball towards earth Sir." "Where is it going to land?" "Canterlot." "Hmmm that won't do. We can not hope to over power the Princesses without it. We must use stealth to obtain it."
