Twilight POV
I was beginning my studies on a new form of magic in the library with the young Dragon spike helping me take notes. "Ready Spike?" I asked kindly as he nodded with a smile.
"Yup, got the quill and scroll ready." Twilight pulled out a paper that had a picture of a egg on it and focused her magic onto it. But as the egg started to come out of the picture, the harder it was to use my magic. Even if I was a Alicorn, it was taking a lot to not lose control or focus just to make even a small picture come to life. I was about to make it when spike belched and I lost control and the egg return into a image on a paper.
"Spike, what happened!? You knew this was important." I said with disappoint, but spike had a scroll in his hand with a little bit of a burnt scroll in the other. The cause was the unburnt letter, not his belch.
"It was sent from Celestia, it had to be important to have her seal on it this time." If my eyes didn't get any bigger, they would fall out when I was handed the scroll Spike mentioned. It was different, the scroll was more elegant and more used for important things then just to mail and with the royal seal to keep it close has to be the reason.
Dear Princess Twilight,
As you know, being a princess means facing new dangers but even I don't know how to call this. I have felt a great disturbance coming in the direction of the old castle that once belonged to me and Luna. This energy is more dangerous then I felt when I felt Tirek escaped from his prison. The dangers to what I am going to ask you are high and you can choose to ignore this request, but as a friend and a fellow princess I hope you accept.
You and your friends must see what this is and put a stop to who or what is causing it before all of Equestria.
Sincerely:
Celestia
Location: Everfree Forest - Near Castle of the Two Sisters
3rd POV
Applejack read the letter last after dragging Fluttershy from her cottage just to talk about the letter in the first place at the Castle of Friendship finds the letter pretty vague to say the least. "I don't know Twi', we don't even know what is going on and were rushin' in like sheep without a shepherd," Applejack said with a worried look to her friends, especially Fluttershy who looks like she was about to run away at any second due to the last time they were at the Castle of the Two Sisters.
Rainbow Dash had a smug on her face say with pride, "What the worse thing that can happen? Sure were in the Everfree forest, but who or whatever this is, we got this." She then hit her chest, showing her 'she can take anything' action as usual to the group.
Rarity speaks up with finesse, "Please darling, if anything it could be nothing and we can get out of this dreaded forest, my mane is getting ruined." She pushes her hair up, trying to keep the curl up.
Pinkie was bouncing up and down with the group saying, "We should throw it a PARTY!!!, I hope it likes cake, and balloons, and streamers, and....!!!!" Her mouth was covered by almost everyone except from Spike and Fluttershy.
Fluttershy however was walking behind the group said nervously, "I do hope whatever it is , it's nice." Her legs were shaking, but Spike walked up to her, patting her back to calm her down. She was able to smile a little thanks to the young dragon.
Twilight let her hoofs down to see Fluttershy to help her out, "Its alright, it could be nothing. Were just here to check whatever the feeling both Celestia and I felt meant something." However, as they approached the Castle, they see two large creatures at the entrance of the castle that looked similar to bugs.


Everyone were about to move when they heard talking from the giant bugs. "The air here feels much more natural then the one near that town on that mountain," said the first one. Its actions were cheerful to be in this forest, which is also being shown by the second one.
"Yeah, and the town close from here is better then that and even this place is better then there. I do not know what the commander is planning, but having us scout may be a good start due to the people in those place's never come here." This shocked everyone, this commander tells these creatures to look at there homes, but for what?
Rainbow Dash was not pleased so she was about to fly at them, but twilight caught her with her magic to keep her from revealing their location. "Rainbow, not yet! They might tell us more about what there up to," Applejack whispered to Rainbow Dash trying to keep her under control.
Rainbow retorted back, "Well they already scouted Canterlot and Ponyville, on top of it without no one noticing neither one of them and they just showed up, I am going straight down there and give them a piece of my mind." The others where sighing due to the usual banter that Applejack and Rainbow do for a few minutes but Pinkie beat them to it and walked right up to them both.
The creatures hovered to ground level and landed as Pinkie said, "Wow your big, you guys like cupcakes? How about parties? streamers? OH OH how about leaf, you like leafs right?" During Pinkies rambling the two creatures turned as they saw a door open to show a man wearing a cape with patterns of red and yellow on it while his clothing show a pattern of red and green. What pinkie saw looked like a stallion without a long snout with a lizard creature standing half of his height wearing armor standing next to him say,
"Who are you?"
Location: Castle of the Two Sisters
Maou POV - Moments Earlier
I was checking the castle with Dramaru and it seems that despite its rough outer appearance, the inner is in better shape then I thought it would be. The library is in good shape, the towers have what was used to be beds that designs that were of day and the other of night. The barracks is manageable, but it doesn't seem to bad to fix up for his troops to live in. "Commander, the info about the two villages nearby our encampment?," Dramaru said with worry, I couldn't blame him due to I am a new force in these lands and I am right in the middle of their territory.
"Very well, what were the reports of the Kacchumushi's? Anything good I can use?," I asked with wonder. This enlightened Dramaru as he went to the stone steps and put down the two grass-made papers as he gave me their report.
"Sir, this one who went to this village called Canterlot, it seems they have control over what is the peace keepers and royalty of the lands due to many well dressed animal people are there. No other info could be gathered without getting detected from their warriors."
I nodded in understanding, "It was a good call, where they have patrols means its the capitol of this land, note that down before moving onto the next report," I said with an interest. If that is the capitol, there must be something there then just the royal's and noble's.
He nodded while saying, "Understood commander," as he noted down what I said. Then he brought up the other paper and it was much larger then the other one.
"Commander, the village close to our facility is called Ponyville. This small place has a farm growing a red fruit with many trees for it, along with a building with many young horse people and the older ones are working. There are barely any warriors walking the streets as he got closer to the castle that the villagers called 'The Castle of Friendship'. This Castle belongs to a Princess named Twilight Sparkle and it also shared by five others due to the throne room has symbol that matches these other symbols. After scouting the area more, I found out the others are named as followed.
Applejack
Rainbow Dash
Rarity
Pinkie Pie
Fluttershy
These other five with the Princess of the village are called 'The Elements of Harmony', wisdom suggest to ally one of them before continuing anymore advance of your right to rule this land that no other wish to have."
I looked at the door, proud of the two for them scouting the towns out before we looked liked invaders. I the looked at Dramaru with my left hand on my chin, "I must thank them both for their hard work, especially the one who made this report. Note that the best ally to have from this report is those honest with themselves but also not afraid to tell the truth to others around them, even if it may hurt themselves as much as the person they got to tell."
Dramaru nodded in understanding and said with what looked like a smile, "Understood commander, who will you test then if you have to?" We both hear the Kacchumushi's outside talking, meaning there are some intruders in the area, which gives me the idea of the test already.
"I don't think I have to, come and meet our 'guests'." Dramaru followed as we stepped out to see a anthro being with pink fur and pink puffy hair with a figure that looked like she hits the gym pretty well looking at me, so I had to ask,"Who are you?"
Twilight POV
I couldn't believe it, the being they called the 'commander' looked like a hairless stallion except with what is on his head. But what shocked me is what Pinkie said next, "WOOOW, you look great! No wonder these two follow you, my name is Pinkie Pie me and my friends were asked to check on some weird feeling both Twilight and Princess Celestia felt today."
The Weird being smiled at her about what she said and responded with a chuckle with continuing, "I see; so tell me Pinkie, where are your friends? I would like to invite them in, even though this land does belong to this "Princess Celestia'." I couldn't believe she pointed to us, but at that moment, Rainbow flew straight at him just to be knocked out of the air by both of the bugs that were guarding the entrance of the castle.
Maou POV
When I asked something so small, it must've let of someone's anger, it had to be due to what the others said. When the light blue Anthro came at me, the Kacchumushi's worked fast to defend me to knock her out of the air. I was able to see her, she has a actual rainbow hair with what was wearing that looks like workout clothing but her shape shows she worked out much more then the pink one but then I see four others run out as the pink one backing up to them.
The cream yellow one who has wings with pink hair wearing a cream sweater but is wearing shorts and looked like she has a body what many of my friends call a body of a swimsuit model screamed, "Rainbow Dash!!"
A purple one with wings and a horn on her head wearing business short sleeve shirt and a patterned skirt that matches her fur. Her body looks good but her eyes say 'needs more sleep', while the white one with purple hair with a horn is wearing a outfit that was made to venture the jungle in the movies but has a body that can seduce a man. But they are putting energy into their horns to attack, which wasn't hard to tell due to they are releasing a glow.
The third one was orange with yellow hair wearing what looks like a Stetson Hat, a red patterned shirt that has both vertical and horizontal black stripe to make squares on her shirt, wearing short cut pants for working on a farm I could tell. Her body I can tell, it's that of a goddess of itself, however she was going to charge at me unless I do something that proves I am non-hostile so I knelt down to the one they called Rainbow Dash and said to everyone, "Never underestimate your opponent. Look, understand, learn, then you may see what other may choose to ignore. Then maybe you have to face me for it is to be weak the strong can be shattered, Loyal one." The face of Rainbow Dash was funny, it was puffed out but I had to hold my stern face to show my point.
Applejack POV
I couldn't believe what I am hearing, this stranger lectured us and helped Rainbow up at the same time. It is kind of funny seeing her face looking so mad but the fact that he took this opportunity to help her up even if it was his fault made me to wonder what his intentions were. I begin to walk up to him just for the small yellow creature in armor to point it's weapon at me. So I asked with the weapon pointed at me, "Why'd you help her? So far I can't find a single thing about you that is a lie, so I have to ask."
This made the being smile, "I am a human, call me Maou Dairokuten for now. I am not from this realm, it is pleasant to meet you Miss Honest." He still was honest, I can't believe it! His name, was true, but he said it like it was half true too but yet there was no lie to it. But one thing for sure, I have never met somepony like him before.
3rd POV
Maou then took Applejacks hand into his own and kissed it. Applejack couldn't believe it, he kissed her hand and yanked it away quickly while turning around to keep him from seeing her face. The other were mind brown to not what he did but what he said about his species, that Twilight screamed, "YOUR HUMAN!!!" This first meeting has become a interesting one for everyone, especially for three individuals.
