G.I.T.P Ghost in the Pony

Motoko and Batou had reached the base of the Building. On closer inspection the pare saw that the building was more like a tree house on a crystal tree rather than being completely made of the element. Motoko and Batou turned on T.O.C mode and carefully opened the large front door. The building was full of long standing hallways with pillars, windows and doors along the walls. The whole inside of the building looked and felt impossible, almost ten times bigger than the outside appearance. The two silently went from room to room, first a large tall roofed with a round table with six chars around it and a chandelier made of wood at the top. Then a highly decorated room that was supposedly used as a dining room, a large bed room with what looked like a child’s room not too far by, and finally an enormous library with books all along the walls and up to the ceiling.

Batou was about to speak when Motoko put her hoof up in warning. In the middle of the room was a table where a purple pony with both wings and a horn was totally engrossed with a red book in both her hoofs.

“aaah, that makes 35 volumes of Equestrian History for the Inquisitive Mind I’ve read, now for number 36”

The pony closed the book and reached to her side to nothing.

“Oh that’s right I left the other volumes in my room”

The pony jumped of her seat and made her way to the door.

“I should bring them here so I don’t have to go back and forth all the time”

The two waited until the sound of her hoof steps disappeared until they reappeared next to the door. Batou just kept looked at the door.

“Ok I’m just going to say it what the heck is up with this place! A million rooms and only one person actually live here!”

“Didn’t you notice she had both wings and a horn, her legs looked strong too, it’s most likely she is someone of importance in this world”

Motoko walked up to the table where the 35 volumes of this worlds history where neatly stacked up.

“Then why no guards? No security? She didn’t even lock the front door!”

Motoko awkwardly adjusted herself on the seat, unsure of how to sit in her new form and picked up the book that the pony was just reading, and began to look through the pages.

“Right now our priority is to gather the information we came here for, we can worry about the hierarchy of this place later”

Batou sighed and walked to the table and picked up the book on the top of the pile.

“This is going to take forever you know that right?”

“Just look up anything that we could use, locations, city’s, people of importance, anything that you think can aid us”

“So what are we looking for, a way to go home or a way to live here?”

Motoko was silent, that was enough of an answer for him. Motoko looked at the writing on the yellowing pages. Equestria, so that’s what this place was called, this place where they went to when they died. Going home she though, what would they do if they did? Would they still be in these bodies? Would they even be able to go back to there old lives? Deep down she new there was no going back, but she was used to situations like that, she lived events like that her whole life, this was different, in a different way. Motoko looked though the pages; some of the things seemingly impossible like immortal rulers that would move the sun and moon, magic that could travel though time, and creatures that could turn others to stone. She remembered the creatures back in the forest, just what else is in this world?

“MAJOR! MAJOR!!!”

The pare jumped as Tachikoma appeared fully visible behind them.

“Tachikoma! What are you doing here!?”

“I was doing as you said and leading the two ponies away but then they started to catch up and the orange one broke off and headed here I came here to tell you because I knew you would be here and…”

“You did take care to cover your tracks coming here right?”

“…I think I saw a pink pony with fuzzy hair meet up with the orange one on the way too…”

“Tachikoma!”

“I WAS IN A HURRY”

Motoko was about to reply when the sound of voices came from the other side of the door, quickly the three of them jumped away from the table to the side of the room activating there T.O.C, just in time to see the Orange, Purple and the new Pink ponies enter the room. The Purple one was speaking to her companions.

“Well there are certainly spells for turning invisible, but what your describing isn’t in any book I’ve read, for a non Unicorn to do something like that they would need a magic item like a ring or amulet, are you sure they just disappeared and not said or did anything?”

“Positive Twilight. That purple mare just took one look at me an vanished with her buddy following after, and then there are those tracks”

“Yes, I…”

The Purple pony was broken off when another two ponies came trough the door. One was a white Unicorn with a purple main and make up wile the other was a meek look yellow Pegasus with pink hair. The White pony walked over to the farm pony.

“Applejack darling you look positively exhausted”

“Well after chasing vanishing apple rustlers and invisible monsters I should hope so”

“Yes I heard about it from Rainbow Dash, honestly some pony’s these days just don’t have any respect”

Batou looked over at Motoko, she just looked away pursing her lips.

“You have any idea who they where Twilight?”

“Sorry Rarity, I’m more concerned with how they could have disappeared without any magic items or potions”

The Pink Pony was looking at the stack of books on the table.

“oooooo, watch you reading Twilight”

“Oh just though I would try to see if I could learn something new from…”

The Winged Unicorn walked over to the table looking at the books in front of her.

“That’s not right?”

“Yeah your right, if that’s true then all the birdies would get cold in the winter”

“No not what’s written in the books, the book was closed when I…”

The pony had stopped the moment her seat met the char.

“Who sat in my char…who moved that seat…who took that book of the top of the stack…and who soiled my taible!?”

Batou and Motoko looked at each other, how could they have been so slopy? The Orange pony walked over to her friend.

“Maybe it was Spike or Starlight?”

“No there still at Zecora’s hut getting potion ingredients for me. Who could have been in here while I was gone?”

Just then a familiar rainbow streak flew though the door turning into the blue Pegasus from before.

“Guys! I followed the track like you said and…they led hear! The invisible track thing in HERE!!!”

“And that might mean that the two ponies from Apple Acer’s are here two”

The Pink pony started jumping up and down happily.

“Yippee, that means we can have a welcome to ponyvill Party”

The pony then quickly took out a blue cannon from behind her back and fired it letting out a large bang of confetti. The Purple pony rubbed her ears.

“I think you used a little too much gunpowder this time”

“Yeah I may have overdone it this time, at least I didn’t point it at anybody, eh Dashi…Rainbow Dash?”

The Pegasus was silent, along with the others as they where staring at the black blast mark on the wall, that seemed to have two of its sides separated from it, hanging in mid air, in the shape of a pony and a large spider like creature. The middle of the black soot covered wall seemed to peal off in the shape of a pony and fall strait onto the floor. There was a flicker on the ground and the black silhouette was suddenly attached to a purple Pegasus, out cold and moaning. The midair silhouette of the pony slapped its hoof to his face

“Well this is a fine kettle of fish”
