The Plan

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

“This is the artifact that caused us to be separated.”

I bring the box to the Throne Room.

I open the box. There is a burnt, golden horse head inside; the very same artifact that Potato took.

“Where did he get this?” I ask myself.

I gasp to my realization.

“He got it from Doctor Whooves’ house! We have to check on him!” I say.

Me, Derpy, and Twilight run out of the Cutie Map Room.

Spike decides to sit this trip out.

11 minutes later

The smell of smoke gets stronger, as we get closer to The Doctor’s burning house.

The sound of crackling also gets louder.

“Doc!” Derpy yells.

She starts to fly to The Doctor’s burning house.

“Derpy!” I yell.

The flaming remains of The Doctor’s house collapse.

Derpy flies to the ground and breaks down in tears.

“This is all my fault.” Derpy says.

Derpy hugs me.

“No Derpy. This is my fault. I’ll make him pay for this, I promise.” I say.

I spot a piece of paper lying on the ground.

I grab it, then open it.

It says, “Dear Arthur,

don’t worry.

The Doctor is alive, as long as he follows my rules.

I’m going to make a deal with you.

You give me The Elements of Harmony, and surrender, then I’ll let The Doctor live.

If you do not answer me within a week, I will kill him.

Sincerely,
Nexus.”

“Twilight! I need to contact Nexus! I need your help!” I say.

“I think I can help you. There are ingredient for spells in the Library, at my castle.” Twilight says.

“Well, what are we waiting for?!” Derpy says.

Twilight teleports us to her castle.

We are greeted by Twilight’s friends.

“Twilight, where were you?”. Rainbow Dash asks.

“I needed to run an errand.” Twilight says.

“With this weirdo?” Rainbow Dash says.

“I'm right here, you know.” I say.

Rainbow Dash never liked me.

Probably because I'm a human.

AJ nudges Rainbow Dash, then says “We were just wondering. You have been disappearing a lot lately.”

“Yeah! You always disappear every time I make cupcakes. Then I have to throw them out.” Pinkie Pie says.

“Well, that seems like a waste. Why don't you sell them?” I say.

“Hmm. I never thought of that.” Pinkie Pie says.

“We are getting way off topic. Why are you disappearing?” Rainbow Dash says.

“She's helping me.” I say.

“With what?” AJ asks.

Oh man. Do I tell them the truth, or lie to them? Either way they can’t help me.

“Just tell them the truth Twilight. It’s no use lying to them.” I say.

Twilight sighs, then says “Derpy’s friend, The Doctor, is in trouble, and Nexus wants to make a deal with Arthur.”

“What are the terms?” Rainbow dash asks.

“Arthur has to surrender, and give Nexus the Elements.” Twilight says.

“I’m thinking of making a meet up place, and when he gets there we’ll ambush him with the Elements.” I say.

“How will you tell him?” AJ asks.

“That’s where Twilight comes in.” I say.

I pass Twilight the paper with the contacting spell on it.

Twilight reads the piece of paper with the spell on it. “Starswirl’s Traveling Spell.

This spell requires two unicorns or alicorns, if you want it to be more intense, a Griffin’s feather, a Pure Hearted Crystal, Alicorn magic, Dragon fire sage, Pegasus wind.

Be aware, the pony or any other species, who are in the center of the mind rune, will be transported and protected, wherever he or she will think about, the spell can be reversed my destroying the Pure Hearted Crystal.”

“Well all those ingredients, except the Crystal, can be obtainable.” Twilight says.

"I don't know, Twilight. Do you think we can chance it?" Rainbow Dash asks.

"What do you mean, Rainbow?" Twilight asks.

"Well, first of all, Arthur can't be trusted." Rainbow Dash says.

"Because he's a human? That we are lying? Spike was there too, you can ask him." Derpy says.

"Well we weren't. So how can we possibly know?" Rainbow Dash says

I say "That's enough, both of you. Rainbow Dash, we all know that you don't like me, but you have to-. What?".

Everypony starts to stare at my arm. The tattoo on my left arm is flashing.
