Previous ChapterNext ChapterIntro Sequence
The night was upon them now and they were waiting for the arrival of Princess Luna, when she showed up, the others all bowed and then Burnt Oak explained the situation to her.
"I see, this is a rather dangerous situation, especially since the vampony spell book can only be used to our advantage if we have a unicorn vampony who is not going to side with their leader, whoever they are." Luna said with worry.
It was just then that Sweetie Belle burst in, she was covered in blood and sweat, and she was also crying and attempting to speak incoherently, hardly getting anything through her sobs.
"Calm down Sweetie Belle, and just tell us what’s goin' on." Applejack said.
It was then that Sweetie Belle stopped crying and tried to talk but before she had the chance Luna had already figured it out and told Sweetie Belle to lead to Carousel Boutique. When they got there Twibat and Rarity had already been captured by other hunters. One of which Rainbow Dash recognized instantly, and she was in complete shock and rampage mode then.
"WHAT IN EQUESTRIA ARE YOU DOING HERE DAD!" Rainbow Dash shouted loud enough to wake up the entire population of Ponyville.
"Hi Dashie, I wasn't expecting you to be up at this hour hehe." Bow Hothoof said nervously.
"I honestly meant to tell ya but never got the time." Bow said hoping that his now enraged daughter would take his explanation.
"Don't lie to me dad, you never meant to tell me. What about mom, does she know?" Rainbow Dash asked coldly and with a lot of anger in her voice.
"No, windy doesn't know about this, and the only reason is because of the fact that even if I told the two of you, those among the hunters that are unicorns would have just erased your memories of the conversation." Bow Hothoof explained as Rainbow Dash Calmed down a little.
"This is all well and good Commander Hothoof, but I want a status report." Luna said in her royal tone so as to try and ease the tension between the two Pegasi.
"Those involved have been captured, however a young filly ran away before we could erase her mind, I can only surmise that she was the one to inform you." Bow said, not taking his eyes off of Luna for a second.
"Wait a minute, I don't even know what's going on here, would somepony please explain?" Rarity asked from inside the magic barrier being held in place by a group of unicorn ponies.
"I am very sorry but you have been bitten and thus marked by a vampony and thus you must be contained and monitored if necessary, we will put you down." One of the unicorns holding the barrier in place said with a tone that proved the fact that he has done this for a while.
"WHAT!" Rarity screamed in a loud enough voice that the barrier holding her and the one holding Twibat almost shattered.
3 Hours Later
Applejack and Rainbow Dash were taken to the headquarters of the vampony hunters guild, Sweetie Belle was put to sleep in one of the rooms at the facility after her memories had been properly altered. As for Spike, he was in the cell block talking to Rarity. As for Flutterbat, well she went home felling a bit woozy.
When Applejack and Rainbow Dash were brought to their destination, they were asked to take a seat and then Bow Hothoof and Burnt Oak also sat down, it was only after Luna sat down that the discussion began, and Applejack was the first to speak.
"What do we do about findin' this coven master pony, especially when we have no idea where ta look?" She asked without hesitation, Rainbow Dash nodded in agreement with her friends question.
Luna looked Applejack in the eyes and gave an answer that nopony liked at all. "We do not know anything about the coven master." Luna said solemnly.
Rainbow Dash looked at the others and then chose to look at Luna and say her piece in the matter. "Well is there any way to find out, I mean like trying to read Twilight's mind or something?" Dash asked hoping that she had the right idea.
Luna looked at Rainbow Dash, surprised that a Pegasus would think of such an idea. It was then that she nodded and beckoned the four seated ponies to follow her.
When they reached Twibat's cell Luna's horn glowed and Twibat stood still as a rock. After several long minutes the light from Luna's horn faded and Twibat fell to the floor.
Rainbow Dash tried to get to her but was stopped by her father who simply shook his head and pointed a hoof at the cell.
"I have an idea of where to look, but the location can only be found by one who has been marked." At this both Applejack and Burnt Oak raised their eyes.
It was then that the group started heading to Rarities cell, Applejack and Rainbow Dash had already anticipated what Luna's plan was and simply exchanged glances with each other and nodded, silently agreeing that neither one of them would do anything rash, and most of all they would stay by each others side until this was over.
