//-------------------------------------------------------// Dolly -by Gabbythewolfpony- //-------------------------------------------------------// //-------------------------------------------------------// chapter 1 //-------------------------------------------------------// chapter 1 "Starlight why are we out here again?" Maria ask. "Well I found this map in my mothers Library and it came from the castle of the two sisters." She said and levitating the map. They walk down the path and saw the castle. They open the door and walk in. "Um wouldn't our mothers get mad, they don't know we're we are?" Daisy said. Madie just smiles and laughs. "Oh come on, this is awesome it's just like the daring do books." Laysy sighs. "Well this better not mess up my mane, I work hard on trying to make a mess." She said. As they walk down the hall, starlight stops. "What's wrong starlight?" Maria ask. Starlight looks around. "Ok we need to find a painting." They nod and look around. Then madie saw one with a old unicorn with a wizard outfit. "Hey is this it?" She ask. Starlight smiles big and ran up to the painting. "Yes, it is do you guys know who this is?" They shrug and starlight sigh. "It's starswirled the bearded, the most powerful and amazing wizard." "My mother told me everything about him, now girls we are here at his secret lab." She moves the painting with her magic and there was a tonal. "Alright you girls ready?" They nod and begin to crawl into the tonal. As they crawl, starlight saw a light. They jump out and saw the lab. They all were in aww. It was big with old books and other things. They all look around and starlight started to fan girl. "This is awesome, I can't wait to tell mom." She said. As they keep looking, Maria found a book. She picks it up and begins to read. "December 1 I was working hard but this might work, I study hard, gather everything and no pony will no. Not even the princesses, this will work, I can't lose her, not even everything I done." Her, who's her? She keeps reading but, the rest of the pages have been rip out. "Um guys I found this book, but the rest of the pages are gone." She said. "WAIT WHAT?" Starlight yelled and grab the book, looking at it. "Who,what, why did they do this?" She ask. "What there somethings written on the back, it's a spell." "But it's in an old language." "Can you translate it?" Casie ask. "I can try." She looks over it again. "ad plenilunium noctis, et mortui resurgent inde ambulare iterum somnos." Starlight horn glows with black and green sparks. She cried as the power grows strong and picks up everything in the room, especially the others. As it finish, starlight and the others fail on the floor. "Next time think before doing the spell." Madie said. Then a thumb came and scared the girls. "W-what was that?" Maria ask. "It must of been a mouse, ya a mouse." Starlight said nervously. The thump got louder and the girls got more scared. "I think coming over there." Casie said pointing to the corner. They walk over and saw somethings under the covers, they push madie up. "Madie, y-your brave you should open it." She gulp and moves the blanket. When she move it, there eyes went wide. It was a filly unicorn with dark fur and white stitch wings and stitch up ears and mouth and bottoms on each cheek, she also have blue mane and tail. She also has a gray dress with a pink ribbon around her waist, she also look like a doll. "Why is there a doll here, she looks like an actual filly." Madie said, then the doll open her eyes and sit up. The girls scream and so did she. She fall and hide in the corner. "P-please don't hurt me." She cried. The girls stop and look at her, they then huddle up. "Ok girls what just happen?" Maria ask. "I think we woke up a zombie doll?" Madie said. "But how, does she know about starswirled?" Starlight ask. "I don't know, we should ask her." Daisy said. "But what if she dangerous?" Laysy ask. "Then will keep our grad up." They all nod and turn over to the filly. Starlight walks up to her. "Oh hello there, my who are you?" She ask. The filly looks at her and more tears ran down her cheeks. "I-I don't know, I- I can't remember who I am?" She said. "Well my name is starlight and these are my friends." She pointed to them. "My names madie, the awesome fast flyer." She said making a pose. The next one was Maria. "My name is Maria." She said. "My name casie nice to met ya." She said. "My name is daisy." She said a little shy. "And I'm lasay." She courtesy. She smiles big and got up. "Well it's nice to meet you all... Wait what is this place?" She ask. They all look at each other and raising brows. "This is starswirled the bearded home." Starlight said. "Do you know him?" The filly garb her head. "Y-ya maybe.. It's just I don't know... I must of lost my memory." Starlight thinks for a while. "well why don't you come back with us and will help you." She said. "Really you will?" They all smile and nod. "W-wow thank you." They all were about to head out, until starlight had something in her mind. "Wait what's your name?" She ask. "I-I don't know.... Maybe you can come up with one." They all think and then madie had one. "I know will call you dolly." They girls raise brows. "Really madie dolly you could at let's come up with a ...." Laysy was interrupted. "Dolly, I like that name." She said. The other sigh and agreed. They all crawl and left the castle and heading back to ponyville. (Time skip) "Ok my mother asleep, come on dolly and be very quite." Starlight said. She and dolly walk in quietly and walk up to her room. Until she heard a door open and hooves steps coming in the distance. "Starlight is that you?" Her mother called. "O-oh yes mother." She turn to dolly. "Hide." She whisper. Her mother walk up to her. "What are you doing up so early?" She ask. "Oh well I was getting thirsty, so I decided to get some water." Her mother rase a brow and look around. "Where the water?" She ask. Starlight got nervous and try to think of something. "Ya I already dirk it and put it up... You know what mom it's really late, I think we should all get to bed and hey don't you have that important meeting with celestia?" She ask. Her mother sigh. "Yes I do, good night starlight." She said walking off and back to her room. "Good night mother." She said. She looks around and found her in the janitor closet. "Ok let's go." Dolly nods and they head to her bed room. Starlight open the door and they walk in quickly. "Ok you'll be staying with me tonight and tomorrow, we'll help you get your memories." She said. Dolly nods and they crawl into bed. Dolly has one end and starlight has the other. "Good night dolly." She said falling asleep. Dolly just thinks and look at the moon. "good night starlight." (Into the dream world) "W-what is this place?" Dolly ask, looking around. "What's wrong dear, you seem lost." Said a voice. "W-who are you, what is this place?" She ask. The voice giggles. "Oh you poor thing, can't remember your past." She said laughing. "Oh but don't worry I can help you." Dolly smile. "Y-you can?" She ask. "Yes you and your friends, must meet me in the forest tomorrow... Is that clear?" Dolly nods and the voice smirks. "Good and good night dolly, see you tomorrow... I can't wait." She said and disappear. Dolly just looks around and getting nervous. "H-hello voice.. A-are you there?" She ask. "Don't trust her... She'll get you." Said a tiny voice. Dolly looks around and then saw a pony doll with pink fur and purple mane and tail with dark blue. She also have different colors buttons. She was just flowing, looking at her. "W-what do you want?" She ask backing up. "Don't trust her.. She will get you." Doll said in a whisper. "Her... Who her?" After that the doll disappear and then dolly begins to fall. "Ahh somepony help me please, I don't know what's going on or who I am?" She said as tears came down. Then she heard a voice. "Don't worry I will help." She then fall on the ground and past out. //-------------------------------------------------------// chapter 2 //-------------------------------------------------------// chapter 2 It was morning and starlight woke up with a yawn. "Good morning dolly... Dolly?" She looks around and didn't see her. She jumps off the bed and looks around, she walks until she saw the balcony door open. She walk over and there she saw dolly, sitting and looking at the forest. "Dolly, what are you doing out here?" She ask, walking over to her friend. Dolly, just set and keeps looking out. "We need to go to the forest." Starlight raise a brow. "What do you mean?" She ask. "Get the others, we to need head over to the forest." She said. Starlight nods and they head out. (Time skip) "so why are we out here again?" Maria ask, rubbing her sleeping eyes. "Because dolly said we should... And why again we are out here?" Starlight ask. "Because someone in my dreams told me." She said and the others gasp. "Was it Luna, if it was then this is really important." Said Laysy. "Luna?" Dolly ask, the others gasp. "You don't know who Princess Luna is?" Dolly shrugs. "No.... Well wait... I think I do remember her, but I don't know." She said, thinking. As they kept walking, they saw in the dark distance. A light, they got closer and saw a wagon. "What's a wagon doing out here? Casie ask. "I don't... But I guess that's were we need to go." Dolly said and they all walk up to the wagon. "Mare of the lake... Isn't that an old mares tails?" Daisy said. "Ya, but it must be this girls fake name... You know like a show." Starlight said. Dolly step up and knock on the door. The door Creek open and a small light came through the door. "I knew you were coming..., come in don't be scared children." Said a voice. Dolly eyes wide, that's the same voice in her dream. Thy walk in and saw inside the wagon, it was full of old stuff and dolls. "Please shut the door and set down." She said. They walk in and set down on these big pillow in font of a big crystal ball. Then they was the one who was talking to them. She was a tall unicorn with gray/White fur coat, two different blush type color mane and tail, she also has yellow eyes and makeup and also has gold jewelry. "So you came her to get your memories back, right?" She ask and set down. Dolly nod and stand. "Yes mam, I can't remember anything please help me..." The mare rase her hove up and dolly stop talking. "Yes and I will help you, please set down and I tell you how." Dolly nod and mare clear her throat. "Ok here the only why you will get your memories back little one." The Crystal ball begins to glow, the mare looks and moves her hooves. "You see, the only why to get your memories back is to go in your mind." She said and the girls look at each other and raise there brows. "And how exactly are we going to do that?" Madie said crossing her hooves. The mare giggle. "You see little one, dolly will fall asleep and you will come into the lake to this world were here memories are." She said and Maria raise her hove. "Um not to be rude... But how will we know it's her memories?" She ask, the mare smiles big. "They don't call me the mare of the lake for nothing, and for her memories..." A small crystal ball shows up and different colors came around inside. The girls aww and the mare giggle. "These are her memories, there in these small crystal balls, they are scattered everywhere in this world." She said and then frown. "One problem, I can not come with you and I never been there ... But when you found one, go to the lake and put in and come back to ask me anything." The girls look at each other. "Um excuse me mare of the lake, me and my group needs to talk." She nods and the girls huddle up. "Ok were just going in, get the memories and back out, that simple." Starlight said. "Ya but remember what the mare of the lake said, she never been into this world so what if something bad can happens?" Casie ask. "Ya... And I don't trust her, she seems off to me?" Maria said looking at the mare, the mare notice and close her eyes and smile. "Guys this is our only chance to help dolly." Starlight said. "But what about our mothers, won't they know we be missing?" Daisy ask. "No, we can't tell anypony... Not even our mothers." Starlight said, sighing. "Ok if there a monster or something bad, will fight or come back." Madie raise her hove in the air and smile. "Yes will get to fight monsters, come on let's go." The others sigh and smile, classical Madie. They turn to the mare. "Ok we talk about and will do it." The mare smile and stand up. "You are brave little fillies, ok let's start." She said and heading over her kitchen like Area. She pull stuff out of her cabinets and put them in a tea pot. She starts a fire with her magic and poor water into the pot. The begin to cook and has a certain smell, like cinnamon and other sweet things. She levitate the tea pot and poor it in a cup and handed it to dolly. "Drink this and you'll fall fast asleep." She said and dolly nods and drinks up. She finish her cup and set it down, she yawns big and past out. The mare of the lake picks her up and set her the bed. She turns to the girls. "Ok come with me." They nod and follows her. (Time skip) "Ok girls here it is." The mare said, the others look around and it was a nice quiet place. They keep walking and then she stop them. She turns and pulls out a bottle with dark blue and black liquid. She walks over to the lake and poor it in. The lake turn into the bottle liquid color and it begins to spins around into a little wave Toronto. She turns to the girls. "Be careful and one more thing, there a little doll that I had, it will get I your way, do not trust it." They all nod. "Ok go and remember what I said." They nod and walk up to the lake, they each to a breath and jump in. After the last one jump in, it was quite. The mare walk back to her wagon and with a smile on her face with black and red eyes. "My work is going to plan." //-------------------------------------------------------// chapter 3 //-------------------------------------------------------// chapter 3 "Wait what...." Starlight wake up and look around, she saw her and her friends in side a forest. But the forest was nothing like back home. She looks around and took all of this in. The others begin to wake up, they look up and look at each other. "Are we here yet?" Madie ask, getting up with the others. "Yes, but we're is dolly?" Starlight ask. They look around and then a path came out of no where. "Hey was that path been there before?" Laysy ask. The others look and shrug. They walk down the path and saw something in the distance. It was dolly, she was sleeping on a bed of beautiful white flowers. "DOLLY." Yelled starlight. Dolly open her eyes. She set up and yawn. "Oh hey guys, are we here... Wow." She said standing up. She looks around and smile. "This is so beautiful." She said. She walk up to the others, after talking and looking around. Another path form out of no where. They all turn. "Well here's another one, this might probably will take us to the town said the mare." Dolly said. They all nod and begin to walk down the path, the forest change. It feels like they were being watched. "I don't like this, it feels like we're being watch." Maria said. The others nod and then they was a kingdom. "Wow, look at that, its big but not bigger then canterlot." Said madie. The others nod and then dolly giggles, the others look at her with confusion. "Um, dolly darling are you ok." Laysy ask. "It looks like the castle of the two sisters, but there a town added to it." She said. They look at her and back at the town. "How did you know this was the two sisters castle, we never told you?" Starlight said. Dolly stop laughing and her eyes went big, how did she know. Then something glow in the back, they turn and saw the glowing in the bushes. They walk up and move the bushes, there was the crystal globe. "Oh pretty." Madie said. "All right, let's get this back to the lake." Starlight said. She roll it back to the lake and the others fallow. But dolly was having the memory flash, but it still fuzzy. (Flash back) "Dad, I'm bored, can we do something?" The little filly ask. Her father sigh and her sister came up too. "Girls, you know I'm busy... Why don't you go into town and play with the other children." He said, the sigh. "Yes dad." They both left his room and out of the castle. They keep walking and ran into town, the others saw them and whisper. "Hey ain't those the freaks in the woods." One whisper. "Ya and they hang out with that old man." Another whisper. "I didn't know, the old man started training, I thought he was a loner." The first one whisper again. "Well at least he teaching them one thing, beginning alone." They laugh and walk away. They both look down and tears came down on there checks, they walk away back into the woods. "It's ok we have each other." The filly said. "Ya lets go night moon," the filly sister said. "Ya come on Cloe." Night moon said. (Flash back over) As they finish putting the crystal ball, into the lake. They head back to the town, when they got there. It looks like they went back to the Middle Ages. It was big and beautiful, as they keep walking. They saw ponies. But when they saw them, they smile big and walk up to them. "Hello little ones, I never seen you here before." The stallion ask. The girls nod. "Yes sir we are, we were wondering have you seen any crystal balls anywhere?" Starlight ask. The stallion shook his head no. "Sorry, but you should ask dusk, he the towns knight, he'll tell yo everything to know." He points to the castle. "Ok thank you sir." Starlight said and they left. As they walk Maria turns and saw him gone, she frown and feel unsafe. They made it to the castle to find the stallion. He was a Pegasus with brown fur coat, with brown and blue mane and tail. He also has blue eyes, he waring dark gray armor with a red diamond on the chest armor. He notice the girls and walk up to use. "Hey there little ones, are you here to see the King, I'm sorry he's busy with things." he said with like he knows something is up. "No sir, we just wanted to know if you seen any crystal balls." Starlight ask. He said no and look at dolly, with a face of Curiosity and a little mad. "Hey do I know you?" He ask. Dolly panic and back up. "No sir I-I don't know, you see sir I lost my memory." Dolly said. He made an oh face and felt sad. "Don't worry, if I saw any crystal balls, I'll tell you.... You girls are new and must be hungry, you should go to cookie bakery, she make awesome food." The others stared to feel hungry and agreed. "Ok thank you sir." Starlight said and they head back into town. Maria looks back and saw him waving, but also behind him was a mare waring a black cloak and a red jewel on her cloak. She was starting at her with a look, that says this place is trouble. Maria look back with the group and herd a voice. "Be careful where you go, you can probably get yourself killed."
