The Pony Scrolls: Equestria

“Spike . . .” The dragon baby was sound asleep. The events of that day had him sound asleep. But there was a dream he was having, not about the death and destruction, but rather, a dream about a soothing voice calling out to him. “It's time to wake up Spike- It's time to come home.”

“Who are you?” The dragon baby asked.

“Spike, return to your home, return to your kiin.” That was what the voice told him repeatedly until he awoke to find Twilight over him.

` “Spike! Get up!” She yelled. “We have a plan!”

“Wha?” The dragon said, still waking up. “What plan?” Twilight rolled her eyes and said,

“A plan to save Equestria!” Twilight levitated Spike onto her back and rushed down the stairs to where their friends were waiting.

But, in a dark part of the castle, there was a brown Alicorn watching Equestria. He stared down at these creatures, creatures he deemed inferior. Inferior in every way. Their strength is nothing, their gifts are mere trinkets, and their magic couldn't even stand to be a joke in front of this Alicorn. This Alicorn, was “Day Star” and he thought his power was the greatest, and wasted serving a sister, who in his opinion, “opened the door” for them. He looked again to the ponies that would call him master. “It wasn't their fault they were weak and pathetic.” He thought. “This was the way Faust made them to be, and he deserved to rule them- they needed him to be king.” Celestia came up behind Day Star and spoke.

“It's a beautiful city, is it not Day?” Day Star chuckled at this.

“It will be a beautiful city, dear sister, when we expand it to be one.” Celestia frowned.

“Are you not impressed by the kingdom that awaited you all?” she asked.

“I am impressed by your skills in persuasion and deception. Truly there is no mightier kingdom based off of these principles.” Celestia stepped in front of Day Star.

“Is that a challenge Day?” she growled at her brother. He looked at her and laughed.

“We're kin, both masters of the Sun dear sister, you won't see me challenging you.” He turned away from her and walked to another window. “Rather, I would want to see our might, displayed in front of your pony subjects. They clearly need one.” Celestia stopped frowning, and wore a smile.

“Don't worry Day, they will see our power soon enough. For you see-” Celestia was then interrupted by a sound at the door way. “Yes?” she asked with a hint of frustration. It was Nova Wave.

“Sister, the leaders of all the pony settlements have gathered, and are awaiting you.” Nova, though clearly a force to be reckoned with, could only play second string to the more mighty Alicorns. That suited her just fine, she had more fun in the field.

Celestia cleared her throat and said, “Very well, I'll head there right away.” She turned over to Day Star. “And make sure you're present- if you want a piece of the land to rule.” She flew off with Nova, leaving Day Star in the dark room, laughing.

“Yes, a piece of the land. A piece . . .” He then put on a stone cold face, and left the room.

At the landsmeet, Ponies gathered from all across Equestria. The Mayor of Ponyville stood silently, watching all the Alicorns flying and watching the ponies. There was also Nutcase of Fillydelphia, along with Brutish of Manehatten and Iron Pump of Stalliongrad. Apple Prime of Appopolis was there as well. Apple Prime was the leader and representative chosen by the Apple Family. In truth, the Apple Family was spread all across Equestria, giving apples to any creature with a minimal fee. Many other settlements were there as well, it was the biggest landsmeet the ponies of Equestria had in history. And then entered the leader of it all, Princess Celestia, the ruler of Equestria. She spoke.

“My people, my adoring public.” Celestia scanned the room, all were paying attention. “It is so good to see you all here in the midst of this terrible crisis.” Celestia knew how to act in front of her the populous, but wooing the leaders to her side was another problem all together. “I'm here to tell you today, that the crisis was caused by one that was indeed very close to me. One Twilight Sparkle, and her friends!” The ponies gasped at this revelation. The Mayor of Ponyville was about to speak, but was beaten to the punch, by Iron Pump.

“I question this Celestia!” All the eyes of the ponies turned to him. “There is no proof or motive of this betrayal.” Celestia glared, but only for a second.

“I am indeed shocked by this betrayal, and even now I don't believe Twilight- my student- would do this on her own. I have reason to suspect a greater power possessing her.” Iron Pump wasn't satisfied with this answer, but enough so to listen to the ruler. “Her powers were far greater than that of any Pony I have ever seen, she was a threat to everypony there. Which is why I summoned the Alicorns to come to our aid.” She motioned to the Alicorns who were either flying or standing stoically before the ponies. “They managed to fend of Twilight and her band of terrorists before any more damage could be done.” Nutcase then spoke.

“How do we know that they won't try again? Our cities could be under attack at this very moment!” Nutcase wasn't the sharpest tool in the shed, but he cared deeply for his people, and would defend them to the end. Celestia nodded and said,

“That is why I have brought my brothers and sisters before you. Until we can find out where Twilight Sparkle and the other fugitives are, these Alicorns will rule your posts in the interim.” The ponies in the court gasped, many simply cringed at this statement, the mayor being one of them. Apple Prime started to leave the court. “Where you going Apple Prime?” Celestia asked. Apple Prime turned to face Celestia.

“My people do not need Alicorn Protection. We will do just fine on our own.” He bowed and then left the room. Iron Pump and Brutish rose up.

“I won't submit to Alicorn rule either, they have no right!” Iron Pump lifted his hoof in the air shaking it.

“While Iron Pump and I don't agree on many issues, I am right beside him on this one.” Brutish worked his whole life to get to his position and worked to keep his ponies in Manehatten safe. “We demand that this motion be stopped!” Celestia shook her head and said,

“I will do no such thing, the Alicorns are here to help you all.” There was a roar of anger from the oppositions side when she said this. The opposition left the room after wards taking ten settlements with them. The rest stayed behind and submitted. It was all the mayor could do, they didn't have any leverage to fight back against the Alicorns rule, so it would appear that they'd have to live with it.

Meanwhile, Day Star observed the madness unfold. “It would appear, that the ponies are removing the surplus population in a war. All the better” He trotted off to Celestia to accept his assignment.
