the Bellefire prophecies shrunken sorrows

“oh hi Scootaloo”--”BOOM-- --- eeap!”said Fluttershy diving into an industrial sized bag of animal feed.

Knowing full well what that was Scootaloo runs out nearly fumbling over the doormat(the actual one not Fluttershy!) and seeing a super-sonic Rainbow Dash. streaming a rainbow wave behind her. “RAINBOW DASH!” yelled Scootaloo. The cyan pegasus mare. Landing just a hundred hoof steps away.

“Hey squirt,” said Rainbow Dash as an ecstatic Scootaloo tackles her to the ground.

Earlier at wonder bolts training “I'm sorry ms. Dash but I can't cut your training short it wouldn’t sit right with me if I gave you special privileges the others didn’t get.” said Spitfire a deadpanned expression on her face.

"But it's really important to her,” said Rainbow Dash giving her commander a serious look.

“What if I finish early?” asked Rainbow Dash.

“Well with the time you plan to leave at you'd have to make one heck of a record on the course, ” said Spitfire daring to question dashes abilities.

“ Consider it shattered,” said Rainbow Dash. flying to her starting position.

The course stretched from above headquarters at an altitude of 40,000 and went around aerial obstacles weaving and looping all over the sky.then down the side of the mountain through a system of caverns and offensive and defensive training obstacles on the ground then up the face on the other side of the mountain whilst weaving through deformities and ended at the landing strip. A six hour three lap 2000 mile long endurance course and after four sonic rain boom's and a wonder bolts speed record shattered four folds over she finished it in just three.

After landing, walking over and stopping Spitfire’s stopwatch for her as she stood there in dumbfounded shock mouth agape.

“Can I go now?.” asked Rainbow Dash as Spitfire just nods in response.

“Un huh,” said, Spitfire. Getting her answer Rainbow Dash bolts.(pun intended). A sonic boom snapping Spitfire out of her shocked state.

“Yeah you can go Rainbow Dash,” said Spitfire only to find that she's talking to herself. It only took Dash mere minutes to find her number one fan and adoptive sister.

Back at present time Scootaloo finally lets her idle get to her hooves. “Geez Scoots you act like we haven't seen each other in a week,” said Dash getting to her hooves. “Now what was it that you wanted ,to show me,” said Dash as Scootaloo stood in front of her wings flared showing her excitement.

“Oh right but can you help me get Fluttershy first → I want her to see too,” asked Scootaloo pointing a hoof in the direction of the mare in question.

“Sure thing squirt,” said Dash as they now walk over to the cottage.

After a few questions from the yellow pegasus, Scootaloo saying that it's a surprise and some persuading from Dash. Scootaloo finally leaves as her friend and idle follow suit. Hops on her scooter and heads back towards Rarity's .the two following next to her.

Back at the boutique time set just before Scootaloo knocks on Fluttershy's door.

Sweetie Belle sits crying in front of the mirror. “Rarity I'm sorry it's all my fault I was careless I didn't think things through like I was supposed to. I..this was---” said Sweetie internally and externally at the same time stopping herself short still not sure she should tell her sister or not. 'I'm a terrible sister I hurt you' finished Sweetie now fully crying.

"*Darling it was an accident and I'm sure twilight can fix this you haven't hurt me I'm right here and I'm completely unharmed," said Rarity trying to cheer her sister up. "*Everything is going to be alright I'm alright you're alright everything is fine we just need to get twilight's." finished Rarity feeling her sister's spirits rise a little.

“Ok,” thought Sweetie.

'now let's just get to Twilight's so we can laugh about all this later' said Rarity still gripping sweeties nerves.

'Uh Rarity, I still can't move' thought, Sweetie.

'Really..strange…hmm uh → .oh just a minute Sweetie I'm going to try something” said Rarity as she concentrates on her spell.

'Now Try to move your right forehoof darling' said Rarity as she loosens her hold on her sister's nerves.

'K..it still won't move' thought, Sweetie. As she tries to move the appendage. Without success.

'alright Sweetie I'm going to try something different' said Rarity. As she concentrates and lifts her own right forehoof.

'Huh' thought Sweetie as she found her hoof moving on its own. Did it move now darling?”asked Rarity putting her hoof down.

'Uh huh by..by itself, though.' thought Sweetie confused.

'i was afraid you’d say that' said Rarity confirming her theory.

'Why what .. why’d it do that?' thought Sweetie.still confused.

'Unfortunately, darling I don't believe you are in control of your bodily movements anymore. You see Sweetie I moved your hoof” said Rarity grimly.

'What! then how are we supposed to get to Twilight's" thought, Sweetie.

'I'm not certain exactly how but I do have an idea that might work' said Rarity considering the facts that lay before her.

1 she was in almost complete control over her sister.

2 if she were to go through with what she was thinking she wouldn’t be able to see what lay ahead of her.

'Ugh, how am I supposed to help her then?! ago this is so frustrating I could scream!' said Rarity unaware that her magic was flaring as a result of her frustration.

As her sister's magic flared up Sweetie stairs in the mirror. “Um, Rarity?” asked Sweetie as she watches helplessly as she felt her fur stand on end like she’d been scuffing her hooves on a carpet for hours. “Rarity,” asks Sweetie her green eyes gaining an increasing glow.

at first, it was like a small light had been placed behind her eyes making them vibrant and highlighted. (before it happened.) Sweetie watches as her own horn begins to glow despite her efforts to suppress her magic feeling the build up becoming too much for her she regrettably let's go. “AAA,” says Sweetie her eyes shooting wide engulfed by a first green then white then light blue light as she screams!!.RARITY!!.--flruuroobooom-.her magic explodes to life right in front of her face.(as usual). “Aaaahhh Ggn hmph” was all Sweetie could say as she’s thrown across the room and into a wall.

“mm....ng → Rarity what happened,” said Sweetie getting to her hooves. Getting no response. “Rarity I can move I can move!” said Sweetie exited. “Rarity?” asked sweetie worry mounting. ‘Oh no’ “RARITY!” yells Sweetie. Running back to the mirror.

“Oh Rarity what have I don to you,”said Sweetie looking in the now cracked mirror. And finds that She’s still breathing blue smoke. This easing Sweetie's worrying a little. “Ok blue smoke she’s alright but for how long,” said Sweetie asking herself. “Oh Rarity what do I do now-- Twilight's!” says Sweetie as she runs out of her sister's room down the stairs and out the door heading full panic to Twilight's.

Elsewhere at Twilight's

“Spike!” yells Twilight.

“Yes, Twilight” answered Spike.

“Where's--slam TWILIGHT!” interrupted Sweetie.

“Sweetie Belle you have too---- Sweetie! what's wrong!?” said Twilight noticing the light blue smoke on Sweeties breath.

“I..Rarity..i..Rarity's inhaled” said Sweetie trying to explain what happened but not finding the words. “I INHALED RARITY!” said Sweetie finally getting it out there.

“WHAT!” exclaimed Twilight dumbfounded.

“I--ahh,’’ Sweetie tried to say but before she could get it out.

“Whaa,I,” said Twilight as she watched Sweeties eyes go white before her pupils turned light blue.

“Well darlingI might be able to help with that,” said Rarity only one thing the voice was coming out of Sweetie Belle's mouth.

“Uh” was all Twilight could say as Raribelle continued.

“Well long story short Sweetie bell came home nothing off there tell she sneezed. → she must have been having a magic flare or something(?) because, the next thing I know I'm no more than an inch tall → latter as Sweetie tries to put me in a safe place she was startled by something and ended up inhaling me and not being able to breath right. → something I just wasn’t going to stand for. I used that nerve calming spell you taught me fast forward her we are now...So anyway can you fix this.. → please!” finished Rarity. a little scared but not as much fear as she felt for her sister's safety.

“Uhh,” said Twilight trying to process what was happening.

“TWILIGHT!” yelled Rarity snapping her out of if.

“Ok… so she inhaled you,” said Twilight now back to the situation at hoof.

“No? I inhaled her” said Sweetie unaware of what had just happened.

“Uhh,” said Twilight.

“Please you have to help me I don’t want an inch tall Rarity living in my left lung!” said a still panicked Sweetie.
“TWILIGHT!” Yelled Sweetie.

“Right! ok so you say she’s an inch tall and stuck in you're left lung peace of cake” said Twilight ending in a nervous laugh.

“Ok let's see,”said Twilight starting her horn. “ok left lung,” said Twilight as she casts a series diagnostic spells. “Alright Sweetie one of the spells I'm going to cast is going to make you go completely limp I need you to stay still and relax ok,” asked Twilight. After she had found Rarity's position.

“Mmm huh” hummed Sweetie as she did her best to relax. She felt as if gravity was vanishing from under her as she lost all feeling and went completely limp.

“Ok,” said Twilight as she finished casting the anti-gravity spell and after the muscle anesthetic spell as she herself started floating.

'Please be ok' Thought Sweetie. As all, she could feel was a small lump in her left lung. And a tingling in her throat.

Twilight now floating cast three more spells: two scrying spells one so she could see what she was doing inside of Sweetie and one to pinpoint Rarity's exact position in Sweeties lung as well as a split protection spell on Rarity and the inside of Sweeties lung and throat.

Spike watches the two. concerned for them both. As a purple tendril of magic stretches out and into Sweeties maw.

Twilight now having a lock on Rarity's position sends a levitation spell down the path she made using the scrying spells and watches her magic eyes closed in concentration following the visual path the second scrying spell made in her mind's eye.

“I wonder why it's taking her so long I do hope they're alright,” said Rarity thinking aloud. feeling a strange sensation fall over her casting a light spell as she feels an aura surrounding her recognizing it immediately “oh darling you're a lifesaver” said Rarity and as she feels Twilight's magic secure her she let's go of her hold on her sister's lung and eases herself into Twilight's aura.

'Oh please be ok' Thought Sweetie as she feels a cooling sensation go down her throat and into her lung.

'Please just be fine.' Thought Sweetie as she now feels something warm being pulled out of her lung and as it tickles her throat she recognizes the familiar form 'Rarity!' thought Sweetie feeling relieved yet worried if her sister was alright or not.

“ew,” Thought Twilight as she followed the rather surprisingly vibrant and fleshy visual the spell gave her and focuses intently on the form she new as Rarity's “disgusting yet intriguing,” she thought as she visually enters Sweeties left lung. “Just a little further”Thought Twilight.

“Uhgk,” she thought upon seeing Rarity's mucus,drool, and slim covered form.

Having found her she finishes casting the levitation spell and to her surprise Rarity casts a light spell and looks her squarely in the eye as she sighs and smiles at her. Twilight now with a smile on her own face raps the spell gently around Rarity. feeling her let go of her magic grip on Sweeties lung tissue she gently begins to levitate her out.

“*Please,” Thought Sweetie as she felt her sister exit her esophagus and slip out between her limp lips.

“Yikes she’s going to want a spa blowout after this,” thought Spike as he stair’s blank-faced at the tiny slime covered Rarity being pulled out from between Sweeties' lips.

Twilight upon feeling Rarity exit Sweetie- slowly stops her spells except the one holding Rarity and opens her eyes. looking at the shrunken form of Rarity she tries to reverse the magic that had shrunken her and finds that she’s unable to do anything. (reminder sweetie spell can only be undone by the caster or upon the caster's death in other words her.)

back with Apple Bloom

After finally losing D.T & S.P, Apple Bloom lets out a sigh while she makes her way to Rarity's. On the way, however, she runs into Pinkie Pie or she would have, had it not be for her Pinkie sense.

“Where you rushing off to Apple Bloom → where's the party!” said Pinkie giggling.

Meanwhile, at Twilight's, Sweetie finally regains her awareness.

“Rarity!”said Sweetie now fully on her hooves.

“Sweetie darling don't yell it hurts my ears,” said Rarity her hooves covering her ears.

“Twilight what are you doing to my sister?!” asked Sweetie eyeing the purple mare.

“I'm trying to reverse the magic that did this to her but nothings worked so far,” said Twilight easing out of her concentration and asking Spike to get her an empty jar and a few books on size altering spells.

‘i have to do it now’ well she’s distracted or she’ll be able to stop it’ thought Sweetie concentrating on the spell. “Eh echo” Sweetie lets her magic fly.

“Ahh”- tsweerffmm- "Sweetie!” Said Twilight dodging the green fireball as it whizzes by her right ear and rickasheys around the room only to come back at Sweetie. “ SWEETIE!” shouted Twilight jumping in front of the beam in question.

Sweetie watches as Twilight gets struck in the back by her spell.

Spike walking back into the room. “Twilight I've got the jar → TWILIGHT!” exclaimed Spike as he watches Twilight instantly glow a bright purple.

'again with the colors'- "Rarity!” thought Sweetie ending aloud. As she sees her sister falling and absentmindedly catches her with her magic and watches as Twilight became increasingly smaller.

“Spike” get the jar,” said Sweetie as she places her sister in her main. And watches where Twilight stopped shrinking; but before she could grab her with her magic the mare teleports onto Sweeties muzzle.

Twilight sees her number one assistant running in her direction and instinctively casts a spell sending her straight on top of Sweetie muzzle. “Sweetie belle now I can't cast a counterspell!!” yelled Twilight exasperated.and looking the white filly in the now giant eyes.

“Ugh huh,” said Sweetie looking at the twi-mini on her muzzle. and receiving the jar from Spike. After placing her lunch cloth in the bottom. she places her still partially slimy sister inside via magic while doing her best as she uses a spell to clean as much as she can off her sister and tries to pick up twi-mini and put her in as well. But finds her resisting her grip. “Mmngh”groned Sweetie. As she tries to gently pry Twilight from her muzzle.

“Sweetie belle!” said Twilight.

“ugh what,”said Sweetie agitated at the noncompliant Twilight.

“Do you have any idea what you've done?” questioned a frustrated Twilight. as she cancels out Sweeties magic with her own.

“Other than shrink you no” answered Sweetie still trying to put Twilight in the jar.

“Sweetie whatever you did it might be permanent!” said twilight half panicked a slightly grim expression on her face.

“Humph” scuffed Sweetie. A completely calm and emotionless look crossed her face as she spoke with her.

“Sweetie I'm serious!” said Twilight.

“Well so am i. → Now git in the Celestia damned jar!”. Said Sweetie anger mounting.

“Aoh! → Sweetie belle! that's highly uncalled for young lady!?” gasped Rarity shocked at her sister's foul language.

“Sweetie you leave me no choice!. Spike? → --achew→ Sweetie!” was all that came out as Twilight watched the dragon get hit and instantaneously shrink to the precise scale she was sized at.

“SWEETIE! you did that on purpose!” said Twilight yelling.

“ you know Twilight being the fact you're an egghead and all I thought you might ask how. I mean spike’s a dragon after all and dragons are naturally resistant to all kinds of magic,” said Sweetie.

“Uh,I,” said Twilight thinking about what Sweetie had said. dumbfounded as she deadpans Sweetie.

“Do you have any idea of how much! magic build up i"ve had the past nine days!. → do you have any clue! to how much I'm holding back! to be sure I don't hurt you?” finished Sweetie in a tone they've never heard before with a stone-serious expression across her face.

As she puts Spike in the jar with Rarity who was still trying to process her sister's actions. “So please get in the jar and I'll explain at Rarity's,” asked Sweetie seriously her tone changing.

Reluctantly and not want to argue Twilight allows Sweetie to put her in the jar. “Ok but only because of what you said not because you forced me to.” Said Twilight while being lowered into the jar. Sweetie levitating the jar to her saddlebags gently placing it closes the flap and heads back to Rarity's.

Back with Scootaloo.

The three pegasuses have just entered Ponyville “hay! → Apple Bloom, Pinkie Pie?” said Scootaloo noticing the two talking and calls them over.

“Hiya Scootaloo so where's the party,” says Pinkie walking over.

“Pinkie there's no party we just talked about dat,” said Apple Bloom. Getting a disappointed look from Pinkie her puffy curled main deflating a little as a result.

“well I don't know anything about a party but Scootaloo’s got some sort of surprise at Carousel Boutique,” said Dash. Immediately lifting Pinkies spirits. mane and all.

Back with Sweetie Belle in her saddlebags.

Twilight now inside the jar in Sweeties saddlebags. Talks with Rarity. their horn’s alighting the dimly lit bag. “I'm concerned Twilight what's magic build up..what's wrong with my darling sweetie → why’s she doing this!?” questioned Rarity worry evident on the white mare's face.

“I'm not sure... When I did several diagnostic spells to help me understand what I needed to do to git you out of her I didn't notice anything unusual but I wasn't looking for magic build up,” said Twilight.while thinking.

“And just what is magic build up darling?” asked Rarity curiosity slightly over- powering her worries.

“Magic build happens when a unicorn usually one that uses their magic constantly then doesn't for a while their magic begins to build up on them. normally at the base of their horn. As it continues mounting it continues to build at an increasing amount. and the symptoms of a serious case of magic build up are as follows”

stage one a headache that gets increasingly stronger >eye aches>a migraine e.t.c

stage two hot flashes extremely fast ~mood changes~ ****

Stage three slight loss of control over their antheral connection -complete numbness of the horn

stage four horn bleeds bleeding from the eyes ears nose and or mouth

stage four ½ slight loss of hearing and or sight

stage five in extreme cases the horn begins to crack apart

stage six complete magic overload- horn blowout and finally death.

“[Twilight please what stage is she I need to know!” asked Rarity panic rising up.

“It's ok Rarity she doesn't seem to show any symptoms,” said Twilight temporarily calming her friend's nervousness. “But that's not the only place magic can git trapped,looped and build pony,”said Twilight an even more serious expression on her face.

“Twilight please stop lecturing and just tell me what you think it is!.” said Rarity full panic.

“Ok.. → so if my observations are right then she’s having build up in her heart and maybe even; but this is extremely rare her brain.” said Twilight a coldness to her more than serious tone. “both being a serious danger.” finished Twilight in a stone cold tone with a face completely devoid of anything but seriousness.

“Then what do.. can we do about it?” asked Rarity trying and failing to compose herself.

“Well nothing till we git to your place,” said Twilight thinking of how to address Sweetie about her possible condition.

Sweetie Belle now half way to Rarity's stops to take a breath. “Strange.. → it feels as if I've been running all day but I've only gone four miles further than usual and I haven't been running I've been walking.” thought Sweetie as she take’s a few deep breaths and continues on her way. not noticing her weakening heart and ever clouding judgment.

Back in her saddlebags. Twilight makes a startling discovery inside the saddlebag they were in. Twilight walks over her horn now alumonating two magic book/tomes the most shocking one being an ancient and forbidden book that Celestia had said was stolen from a magic volt in the canterlot archives. Called the Bookanamikon!!. As well as four other reported book/tomes missing from the eighteen hoove thick magic infused stainless steel vault.

the book of the dead and its opposite the book of the living!!

a book/tome with over 500 dark magic and 600 light magic spells in full detail as it was the original uncut unshortened copy!!!?

the book of elemental spells granted this one only had 22 spells but that included the spells depicting the element of life.!!!!!!

‘With these books, she could raise an undead army or worse summon a demon.!!!!!!!!’ Thought Twilight in shock. Twilight freaked at least 12 strands of her main simultaneously coming undone as her resolve and nerves shattered under the overwhelming truth that lays before her. “ungu..heh heh ugh..”snapped Twilight like a small twig.

Rarity noticing her friend's distress walks over and begins to comfort her. “Twilight darling you act as if you’ve seen a ghost,” said Rarity not yet registering why she looked so pale.

“Ugungh..hemmmng”said Twilight pointing to the books in question.

“huang gh,”said Rarity in gasping shock as she too realized what Sweetie belle had been up to the past few days
