An Amulets Fate
Chapter 4
Previous ChapterNext ChapterHey Fate wake up, there’s somepony at the door. Cursed opens his eyes as he began to pull himself out of his bed, rubbing his eyes in the process. "Thanks for telling me, I'm going to have to keep you in the box Emerald ok. If this happens to be any of my other friends I don't want them finding you." I understand, if more knew about me we could have some serious problems on our hooves, or yours as I don't physical have them any more. Cursed looks towards the box containing the Alicorn Amulet as he smirks at Emeralds comment before making his way downstairs and towards the door.
Upon opening the door Cursed was greeted by two ponies. One of them was a purple Pegasus whose mane was styled after that of Sonata from Rainbow rocks but was a dark blue with black strips instead of her normal hair colour. She had a cutie mark resembling a dark blue ok hand gesture and had light pink pupils. The other was a very light purple earth pony with a mane style similar to vinyl scratch but was all pink instead. Her eyes were a dark purple and her cutie mark was that of three yellow stars. Out of the three she was the smallest, which had fit her name so well too.
Cursed looks towards the two ponies as he asks, "Oh hey Shorty, hey Kawaii Potato. Why are you two over here exactly?"
"Well we and the group were planning on heading out to the bowling alley; Gandalf was given the day of teaching magic and wanted all of us to have some fun there. And apparently Shadow will be bringing anew friend to meet!" Kawaii smiles with glee towards Cursed as he yawned back to them before replying,
"I'll be right over then, see you all there." The two ponies wave to him as he shuts the door behind them before making his way towards the kitchen to make him some breakfast. Upon pouring the milk into his cereal he was startled by Emerald so will you be leaving me here then or are you going to risk taking me with you? While cleaning up the spilled milk Cursed replies back to Emerald using his thoughts yeah I think it should be for the best, after all, no-pony other than me, Shadow and Bean know that you're here and besides, you’re in a very secure box that only I can access so if somepony was to steal it, they wouldn't be able to open it. I guess you’re right, now should you start heading down to this bowling alley place then?
Meanwhile, in an unknown location, a strange figure was watching Cursed though a blue magically formed orb. "So he's going to leave the Amulet all alone in his house, why this is perfect," The figure begins to circle around the orb cheerfully as he continued, "with him away playing bowling with his friends, I sneak into his home and take that Amulet away from him. Once this is done I can begin my conquest of Equestria and nopony will be able to stop me, this is too good to be true but it is."
The figure attempts to transport himself into Curseds' home but to no success. He continues to try before screaming out in frustration, "Ahhhh, why can't I enter his home?!" The pony looks towards the orb as he notices Cursed has decided to mark his front door with a strange symbol. Upon closer inspection he realises that the symbol was there to prevent anypony to enter his home using magic, something he may have learnt from shadow and her use of symbols and incantations (one incantation which may or may not have caused a certain pony some annoyance and another being used for the creation of Bean).
"Damn it, this will be more difficult than I thought. It looks like I will need to take a more direct approach, muhahahaHAHAHA... I should really stop doing that." The figure begins to cast his teleportation spell once again, this time named aimed not directly into Curseds' home but instead outside of it as the figure vanishes.
While at the bowling alley, Cursed had meet up with seven ponies that were split into two groups of four. In one group there was Cursed himself, Shorty, a (light-ish) black unicorn with a black mane, purple eyes and a 50p coin for her cutie mark who was known as Senesh and a grey Pegasus with a black mane with thin grey stripes, dark purple eyes and a shooting star for her cutie mark and was called Star Flight. In the other group opposite them was Kawaii Potato, a light brown earth pony with a mane like Fluttershy but blonde instead, light blue eyes and a half rebel half empire cutie mark and was known as Loki Fangirl, there was a white unicorn with a pink mane and eyes with a laughing emoji cutie mark and was known as Sophaloaf and lastly there was a light grey unicorn with a long white beard (but short white mane) who had grey eyes and a pop bottle for a cutie mark known as Gandolf.
The two groups were seating in their respective bowling areas waiting for Shadow pro and who she was bringing with her, which Cursed knew already was most likely going to be Bean. They were all waiting patiently until Sophaloaf had given up waiting as she shouted,
"Where in Equestria is she, we've been waiting for nearly an hour now!"
"I think we may need to start without her and her new friend, it would be for the best." As soon as Gandolf finishes his sentence Shadow bursts into the building with Bean not far behind. She scans around looking for the eight as upon spotting them, she rushes towards their location.
"We're sorry we're late but a certain pony wasn't being very co-operative," she turns to look at Bean as he landed himself onto the ground next to her. She then turns back to see a surprised faces, all excluding Cursed who was slowly sniggering at their reactions,
"It's the same look gave when I first saw him," Cursed gets up from his seat as he walks towards Bean before facing his friends," Everyone, meet Bean. He's Shadows attempt at making an Alicorn as you can see, it worked." The group was still in shock until Gandolf asked,
"So then, Bean, what team would you like to work with?"
"I was told that I've got to stay with her," Bean looks towards Shadow with a unpleasant look, "She says that I'll get up to no good if I'm in my own group."
"Fine then, seeing as you already know Cursed why not you two go on his team, Senesh you come over to our side so it's even." She rolls her eyes as she makes her way towards the other group. While she did this, Cursed leans in close to Shadow and Bean, whispering to them, "Remember what I said back at your home Shadow, tell no-one of the Amulet ok you two?"
"Not even one hint?"
"No Bean, not even a hint." The two ponies then nod at Cursed as they meet up with Star Flight and Shorty to discuss bowling order.
While all that was happening, the unknown figure from before had broken into Cursed Fates' home as he was search around for the box. It had seemed that while he was distracted at how he may be closer at taking over Equestria, Cursed had decided to move the box somewhere safer to keep away from sight. The pony was looking everywhere for the box, under his bed, within the cupboard and even behind posters of DJ-pon3. He felt as if he was never going to find it as he slumped down and leaned against the rooms’ cupboard. As soon as he contacted it the cupboard slid backwards making the pony hit his head against the floor before getting up to notice a secret compartment underneath,
“Finally, I found the box. Now to get out of here before he gets back.” The pony attempts to use his magic to teleport away but failed, “Ah yes, the symbol. Fine I’ll leave out the window instead.” Upon saying this the figure rushes towards the window, using his magic to hold the box as he crashes threw it. After suffering a cut here and there the pony uses his magic to transport himself back to his own home, placing the box down next to the orb as he walks away to go tend to his wounds.
It was the last bowl needed left for Cursed team to win the game. His opponent, Sophaloaf had scored a spare meaning if he was to earn a strike, the game would be won. Cursed prepares to aim when suddenly Emerald contacted Cursed, I think we have a problem here. The sudden surprise had made Cursed miss the shot and was unable to score the strike, what is the problem Emerald, you just made me lose this game!
I think somepony has broken into your home, I can hear stuff being thrown around and... Hold on... the box is moving, the intruders found me, quick get here now!
Cursed turns round towards his friends as he states, “I need to go now guys, it was a fun game we played,” he then looks specifically at Shadow and Bean, signalling them that they need to go with him.
“Yeah, I think I’ll take Bean home now too, he’s not happy when he loses.” Cursed then runs up to the two as he teleports the three away with him. The seven remaining ponies looked at one another, confused on what just happened.
The three appear outside of cursed home to see that his downstairs window had been smashed inwards while his bedroom window seemed to suggest the intruders escape. Emerald, do you know where you are, are you even still moving? I don’t think I am, after hearing what sounded like a smashed window next came what sounded like magic before everything went still. Now all I hear are the muffled sounds of somepony sounding as if their healing themselves.
Cursed runs upstairs towards his room to find that it had been destroyed and the box missing, don’t worry Emerald, we will find you and you kidnapper, I promise. Cursed then returns downstairs to see Bean trying the put away all the glass while Shadow was looking at the symbol that Cursed had on his front door,
“Well this explains why you didn't just teleport us inside, what happened anyway?” She turns to see Cursed sweating with panic as she slowly realised why he was this way, “It’s the Alicorn Amulet isn't it, it’s gone isn't it?!” All he could do was nod as Bean rushes next to them,
“Well let’s go find our culprit then, is there any evidence left behind or something?” Upon saying this Curseds’ head sprung an idea as he rushed upstairs to his room, the other two following him. When then entered he led them to the window where it seemed that on one of the shards there was some blood left form the intruder, “Shadow, do you think you can whip up something using this blood to help us him, I'm going to stay here to tidy up the mess made and I want you to come straight back to me when you do find him.”
The pony nods her head before launching out of the house. Bean begins to follow before turning round back to Cursed, “It must suck, to lose the Amulet after only just getting it back.”
“yeah, it massively does.”
