Chapters Emma
I remained silent in front of this mare I once considered as god, now I see her like Aeon was seeing her, a betrayer and a coward that gets what she wants done by the work of the others. She was looking at me with her purple eyes, she asked:
Aeon
This mare is courageous, fighting Celestia without hesitating, she is stubborn but excellent in improvising. Celestia didn't go after her. Actually, she seems quite relaxed, she is up to something... There she is, in her chamber, writing down a letter, asking the Elements of Harmony to go after her, with her sister. She asked to Luna to deliver the message, to win some time. They will not do the detour by Canterlot, they will go immediately after Emma. My temple is old, I am sure that Emma will find the door's password. She will not find what she is searching for, but, she will indeed find an alternative.
Emma
I used telepathy, well, the less I know about it, to tell Sharpe and SilverShield to search for information about the Alicorns Celestia betrayed, and avoid any contact with Celestia or Luna. I arrived fast enought over the everfree forest. Damn it's big, where can I find a hidden temple in a forest like this, I remember, "Aeon-Temple-Everfree-Time", hum... the first letters make ATET, AT and ET, ET represent East, At East... I turned east as I realised the answer. I felt magic over some firs. I dove in the forest and took back my body shape before gently landing on the ground. There was a giant boulder stuck in the mountain. There were signs on it, I new them, it was the old royal language, Aeon talked to me about it and showed me some things about it. I could barely read it but I got able to have the whole enigma. It was written "What is the best medicine for non-physical pain?" I thought, what is "non-physical"? inside? feeling? Then it popped in my head, I said:
You rise, you fall, you're down then you rise again. What don't kill you'll make you more strong
And I choose to survive, Whatever it takes, You won’t pull ahead, I’ll keep up the pace, And I’ll reveal my strength, To the whole human pony race, Yes I am prepared, To stay alive, I won’t forgive, the vengeance is mine, And I won’t give in, Because I choose to thrive Muse-Survival
Emma
There was a silence, a long silence. Everypony was staring at the opposite team. AppleJack, the element of honesty broke the ice:
We walked around ten minutes away from the temple in the forest. There was a waterfall.
Eclipse
Midnight
Noon
Eclipse
Luna and Twilight were starring at me.
Midnight and Noon joined me, I looked in Rainbow Dash's direction, she was unconscious on the ground, with FlutterShy trying to wake her up. Then I looked at the earth ponies, both were in a crater, also unconscious. Twilight also saw them.
Chapter 4: Crossing the life
Emma
Red mountain was known to be a flaming hill. Many ponies that explored it never came back, legends says that the fire pony burned them. I flew around the mountain to finally find the entrance of a cave. Signs and barriers were asking ponies to go away, that this place was dangerous. I stepped inside the black corridor, I walked for about ten minutes, trning right and left, always going up, I didn't try to fly, I could've hit a wall. Suddenly, a light came out of the tunnel, an orange light, it was starting to get hotter and hotter. The heat started to be insupportable, Flames were coming out of the walls and from fissures in the ground. The passage finally ended up in a flaming dome. Fire was everywhere, surprisingly, it wasn't burning my skin, nor my mane. There was a bridge going to a platform in the middle of the dome. Over the round platform was a floating transparent orange ball. With a sleeping alicorn in it... Flare. She suddenly opened her eyes.
She was white, with red eyes. Her mane and her tail was pure fire.
3 000 years ago
Flare
This day
Emma
We when out of the cave. The sun was rising.
"So Flare, Where are we going?" I asked.
"Oh my... I hope that we will convince Celestia, also the fact that she doesn't really like us. Aftee escaping her I despite the idea of being separated from my sister even if that would be safer for us. I stayed here to train and meditate like Aeon told us. I sometimes go out of my hiding place to go see Draft."
"Cloudsdale"
Emma
Out of the tunnel, Tide looked at us.
Suddenly we passed throught a cloud and the floating city revealed itself. It was beautiful. Tide didn't gave us the moment of admiring the city and gave us the signal. I casted the spell of camouflage as the two others did the same. I turned into my pegasus state, the same as I was before I met Eclipse, I mean Aeon... before I met him.
Chapter 7: The other life
Emma
We've been flying for a long time oover this forest, Draft said that his sister was somewhere called the "Bear Claw".
I went throught the leaves, I saw a white Alicorn. She had a green mane with green eyes.
I froze, despair... it's the opposite of... Hope, but I... am Hope... So she is...
The four Alicorns came out of the woods. Flare speaked for them.
Emma
The Equestria capital was getting bigger as we advanced. We could see smoke. Draft was the first to land in front of the castle. He looked around and saw destroyed buildings, smoking and fire.
Two big alicorns, a Mare and a Stallion.
All the ponies around me, except the brothers, bow in front of the big Alicorns. Even Celestia, moved a little bit backwards.
She whispered.
Everything happened in Slow motion.
"Flare..."
Nightfall Quietly crept in and changed us all Nightfall Immortal land lies down in agony
Emma
The dead body of my friend was lying in my hooves, the bleeding hole in her chest was showing how big the monster was. Then I suddently remembered her last whispers... Aeon. I looked up and saw the crack, it was growing bigger, the crackling sound was loud. The snake was angry.
All of a sudden, there was a big Boom. The roof exploded to dust, at the same moment, I couldn't believe what I saw. A giant Hawk entered the Throne room, dashing in the snake's direction. The giant bird rammed the reptile and crushed it in the wall. It was surprising that the wall didn't broke under the impact. Dust was still everywhere. The Hawk slowly walked back, wings, on his sides.
Aeon
Emma
The explosion all threw us on the ground. Draft helped his sister to stood back up.
We entered into the hall. Everypony was there, Draft, Nucleus, Wit, Aera and Sarah. He dropped Paradoxus violently on the ground as I slowly lay down Celestia. Her sister Luna woke up and was under the supervision of Wit.
Celestia opened her eyes. She saw in front of her 8 Alicorns, fear was in her eyes. Aeon stood in front of the others.
We heard a growl, we turned around, Paradoxus was awoken. Still paralyzed by Aeon.
Aeon turned around and joined his brother and his sister.
I walked close of Aeon.
The Lost Chapter: Life assault
An hour before Aeon's liberation
The capital was standing in front of us. It's a beautiful day. Celestia should be in the castle. We must go now...
The gates of Canterlot were closed. Looks like Celestia don't want us to get in. Strange tho that Shining Armor, the brother of the little Twilight didn't do the "bubble" spell thingy... Would have been easy to break anyway, Noon's back legs are quite strong enough. We heard a guards voice.
"We will take Luna with us thank you."
Chapter 1: A year in a life
Emma
For now a year, Aeon is teaching me my powers, in my dreams. Strangely when I wake up, I remember everything he taught me. I need him back, for now a year I waited every night for his return, I've waited enough. I sat on the couch and sighed.
She was right, I could possibly discover something in Canterlot. I cannot use teleportation like Aeon, but with magic, I can move faster than if I would fly with my wings. The sun was setting down and I cast the transportation spell, turning me into a purple ball of light dashing through the sky.
I entered the castle of Canterlot into a room from the window, two ponies we're in the bed, they didn't heard me, I was silent like the wind. I rushed outside and ran into the corridors, I was not welcome here, even if I am an Alicorn, Celestia still don't considerate me as one of them. For her, I am a simple pony that is now breaking in the castle. I ran downstairs, no guards? That's weird... I entered the archives without problems, there were scrolls everywhere. I went to the restricted door of Celestia private archive. It's was locked. I simply unlocked it with magic, but I felt magic, coming out of the lock, it was a trap, Celestia knew that I was here.
Come ride with me, Through the veins of history, I'll show you how god, Falls asleep on the job And how can we win, When fools can be kings, Don't waste your time, Or time will waste you...
(Epilogue)Chapter 10: The new life
Aeon
We went back to Ponyville, Tide went to Cloudsdale with Draft, Flare returned to the red mountain to help the locals. Nucleus returned in the forests and Sarah came to live with us.
A year later
"Aeon, I'm pregnant."
