The Return of the Ice Queen

                                  Twilight started getting worried. What was taking Celestia so long. She called the Mane Six together and said

"Something is not right girls." Rainbow Dash spoke up.

"Now that you mention it, it does seem a little to cold." An icy, raspy voice said,

"Well well. Is THIS my competition? So dull." Twilight turned around and gasped. Some of the Canterlot population screamed. A white alicorn had appeared where Celestia was standing greeting the guests earlier. Fluttershy hid behind Discord, for this alicorn was more terrifying then Nightmare Moon was. Her mane and tail were of a deep blue with an unforgiving storm of swirls and snowflakes. Her wings, which were outstretched, were like Nightmare Moon's yet were more icycle like. Her cutiemark was a pale purple snowflake trapped in light blue icycles. Her jewelry was a light purple ice crown, neckless, and shoes with three spikes on the top. She had a light blue swirl on her right forleg that Twilight thought looked liked the swirl all windigoes had. But her eyes, those eyes were the most terrifying aspect of her. A swirl was above it, but the eye itself was a light blue soulless eye that was more terrifying on her than on windigoes. Twilight asked,

'Who are you?" Before the mare had a chance to speak Rainbow Dash yelled,

"And what have you done with the princesses!?" The mare laughed.

"Let me answer the first question. My name is Empress Snowfrost, ruler of the Frozen North and guardian of the windigoes. Yes... I see your faces of disbelief." Applejack said.

"Now hold on right there Missy. Those windigoes were destroyed on Hearth's Warming Eve." Snowfrost scoffed.

"That is what your precious princesses would have you believe, but it is a lie! But no time for a history lesson. You want to see your princesses!? I will show you!" Snowfrost yelled.

"Fleetwind, Icestar, Snowfall! Show them!" Three windigoes, one a female, flew in and swirled around on the floor. When they moved away all the ponies gasped. The princesses, Flurryheart, and Shining Armor were all trapped in ice. Twilight cried

"Release my niece! She is no danger to you!" Snowfrost put a hoof on her chest and said in a mocking voice,

"I actually feel almost tempted to do that. But one knows that a child has strong love for her parents. No." Discord chuckled and said

"But my dear pony popsicle, you forgot me!" He tried to snap his fingers, but to his horror he has no magic. Snowfrost said,

"Oh, I'm sorry sir. Did I forget to mention that your Fluttershy isn't here?" 'Fluttershy' bursted into green flames and in her place stood Queen Chrysalis. She lit up her horn and the real Fluttershy appeared, tired and a mess. Queen Chrysalis threw Fluttershy into Discord's arms and said,

"Your love for that pathetic pegasus was absolutely delicious. So was your power." Twilight asked

"What do you want?" Snowfrost smiled and said,

"Simple, really. I want one of the elements of harmony! And no, not you Twilight. Your friends can easily bring you out of my grasp. I need someone else." She teleported to the statue of Celestia and said

"One week before these ponies start to melt. One week. If you in anyway try a spell to bring them back, they will turn into water before you very eyes. I will leave Fleetwind here so that he can take one of you back to my kingdom when you have made a decision." She teleported away along with Chrysalis, Snowfall, and Icestar. Fleetwind glided to the floor and the customary tail that windigoes have when flying turned into back legs and a tail. He was still very tall and huge yet seemed more pony now. The mane six, along with the real Fluttershy, tried to think of a plan.
