Pandemonium Angels - 1st Saga

"Oh you are so full of it!"

"It's true!"

As a conversation between Rainbow Dash and Trent go on, the 4 angels and the mane 6 are walking towards Sweet Apple Acres.

"Why are we here at apple acres?" Rarity asked.

"These boys are gonna need som' muscle for this job. So ah know where we can get som' muscle" Applejack said.

"What about me? I've got some muscle!" Trent whined.

"Can you lift a truck?" Both Applejack and Sypher asked him.

Long pause "No..." Trent says as he turns his head from them.

"APPLEJACK!" a filly calls out, running towards AJ and tackling her to the ground.

"Get off me sis!" AJ laughing about the matter. "Why you in such a giddy mood?"

"You'll never guess what me and the crusaders found!"

Applejack fixes her hat. "What was it?

"it was red, shining and glowy! But it's wedged into the ground! Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle are watching it"

"So what chu want me to do about it?"

"We need your muscle to get it out!"

"Sorry sis, I would, but ah'm tuckered out from apple picking. Big Mac can help" she turns to the boys. "He's the muscle I was talkin about"

"Great!" Leo exclaimed. "So uh...where is Big Mac?"

"IN YOUR DREAMS VARMINT!" a voice came from above as a green elderly pony falls on top of him. "You ain't taking my grandchildren on my watch!" She shouts as she rides his back, pulling on his hair.

"Granny! He's a good fella!" Applejack yells as she pry's the assaulting woman off Leo.

"OK, but I still got my eye on you...er...what was I doing?"

"You was baking a pie" Applejack says.

"Shyoot!" She slowly runs back inside the house.

Leo gets back up and brushes himself off. "And that was...?"

"That was Granny Smith, Ah apologize for her antics, she does this whenever she sees somepony new" Applejack said, helping him with the dirt on his pants.

"APPLEBLOOM!!!"

Applebloom turned to the direction her named was called. "Scootaloo! Why aren't you watching it?!"

"We was! But then these dog guys stole it right in front of us!"

"Dogs? Diamond Dogs?!" Rarity yelled.

"Diamond Dogs?" Rush questions.

"Diamond Dogs!" Rarity says furiously. "Oh how I loath those ruffians! They really don't know how to treat a lady"

"They use ponies to mine and dig for gems" Twilight said.

"Slavery? That's just down right cliched, yet cruel! Trent said.

"Wait! Where is Sweetie Belle?" Rarity Panicked.

"That's why I came here, they kidnapped her!"

They all gasp in shock and horror.

"Then why didn't you stop them?!" Rarity yelled.

"They were big! I couldn't-

"Couldn't what? Stand up for yourself?!"

"Rarity!" Twilight yelled. "She's just a filly!"

"...I'm sorry Scootaloo. I just can't stand to hear that something awful has happened to my sister! We need to get her back!"

"And we will Rarity!" Twilight exclaimed "Come on girls!"

Before the mane 6 were about to head off,

"Hold on!"

They all turn to Sypher.

"We're coming too"

"We are?" Rush asked to confirm with hesitation.

"Yes. What that little kid just described was a glaia. And this one is unstable, if they figure out how it works..."

"It won't be pretty, let's leave it at that" Trent added.

"Wait what about Big Mac?" Rush asked. "You said we're gonna need muscle"

"Ah'm gonna be the muscle! I feel like a new pony!" Applejack exclaimed

"Can we come?!" Applebloom and Scootaloo asked.

"No can do lil' missy, you girls stay here with Granny Smith and Big Mac.

"Fine" Applebloom said in a disappointed tone.

"Don't worry girls, We'll get her back before sun down!" AJ exclaimed.

"You guys think you can keep up?" Rainbow Dash boasted.

"Watch me" Leo said to himself.

"Let's go Everyone!" Twilight said in high spirits.

They head off to Diamond Dog Cave.

====================================================

Meanwhile back at Twilight's library, Spike and Nia stayed behind to tidy up the library, of course Nia insisted that she helped. Spike continues to pickup books that are all over the place as while Nia floats around freely with a care in the world. "Spike are you sure you don't need any help?"

"That's ok Nia, I can clean this place up in a minute!" Not looking where he's going, he bumps into a stacked pile of books Twilight left and they fall on him. Nia flies over to the pile of books that spike's under. His head pops out. "Hehe, maybe in a few hours?"

Nia giggles at Spikes humor. Her hands glow white and she levitates a few books from Spike and puts them in their rightful place on the shelves.

"Wow! I know you can fly, but I didn't know you're magical too!"

"Well all Spirit Guides are magical silly! And I have to say, your purple friend must have a lot of time on her ha-...hooves to read these books"

"You have NO idea" He says as he gets out of the remaining pile of books. "Other than hang out with the others, she stays in her bookworm cave all day and I pick up the books that she finishes and leaves all over this place sometimes"

"That's the exact opposite of Leo, he does anything BUT read a book. He just plays games with his friends all the time and I pick up his socks"

...

...

"WE"RE BOTH SLAVES!" They laugh together about the whole matter that Twilight and Leo are nerds in their own way.

"But I'm not really his slave. I just can't stand to see a room covered in white footwear"

"I don't know, I feel like a slave to Twilight sometimes"

They both sit down facing each other.

"So how did you and Twilight become friends?" Nia curiously asks Spike.

"Well she told me that when she was young, she hatched me when I was an egg"

"WAIT, SHE'S YOUR MOM?!"

"What?! No no no no no no no! Gross! Well...sometimes she treats me like I'm her son... and raised me like one. We're really good friends. I'm her assistant...her best assistant"

"Oh. Well that's really sweet of her to take you in as a son" She says as she settles down.

"And how did you and Leo become friends?"

"Me and Leo? That's kind of a long story"

"That's okay. I'm all ears! ...ears? ...I'm listening!"

"Well...it was back when he joined the Pandemonium Angel Academy"

4 years ago

It was his first day I believe. He picked me to be his spirit guide. Either by choice or random, I didn't care, I was glad to be finally work with my master. But at first he wasn't really interested into listening to me or my advice, all he cared about was learning how to fight, I felt really ignored and left out. But the next day, things changed

"Man I'm not learning crap from this place. How did Chris do it?!" Leo said as he kicks a rock on the ground.

"Master?" Nia popped in front of him. "May I suggest that you go talk to the-"

"That Wrightfield lady?! I know! But she keeps telling me the same damn thing, "Do the first obvious task" What the hell does that mean? And what's the point of having a spirit guide? It's stupid. You guys aren't helpful. Just a waste of time"

She stops following him after that statement. After letting what he said sink in, a tear falls down her eye. "Master..."

"What?" he says angrily.

"If that's how you feel, then I'll no longer be your Spirit Guide" She tries her very best to keep any more tears from falling down her face "I'll request that I'll be reassigned immediately...good bye" She flies away.

But after that, all I could remember was waking up, I was on the ground and saw Leo getting beat up by 2 boys. One was holding him and the other was beating him with his fists. They tossed him towards me and they just walked away. Leo had some strength in him to crawl closer to me. He told me that those boys threw me against the wall hard when I accidentally bumped into them and I was too weak to move. He told them off about doing that and tried to fight them...for me. He smiled to see I was okay, before he passed out, he coughed out blood saying something that made me want to stay his Spirit Guide to the end.

"I was wrong about what I said. You guys are not a waste of time. Especially you Nia, I'm sorry. I don' blame you if you don't want to see me again. I'll say the same thing I said to my sister...I don't care what happens to me, as long as your ok and smiling"

He passes out in his small puddle of blood.

"..."

"Master?!"

"MASTER?!?!"
