My Little Kirin Chronicles: Friendship is Magic

Sandbar and the Young Six watched as Summer was teleported away by the crystal vines. "Oh no! Summer!" Ocellus whimpered. Rockruff and Wooloo cried in worry.

"Where did those vines take her?" Rotom asked.

"Let's go get Headmare Twilight." Sandbar said and the group rushed to her office and entered, "Headmare Twilight!" Sandbar exclaimed.

"Sandbar, what is it? Where's Summer?" Twilight asked, noticing the kirins' absence.

"Nice kirin was taken by mean vines." Yona said.

"Taken?!" Twilight exclaimed. "What do you mean?"

"These crystal vines wrapped around Summer." Smolder started. "We tried to save her but they made a shield, blocking me from trying to grab her."

"Suddenly, they just teleported away with Summer in their grasp." Silverstream finished. Twilight paced back and forth, "This doesn't make any sense. There's never been any crystal vines in the school or even in Equestria."

"We gotta find Summer." Sandbar stated.

"And we will. I'll rally the girls. Meet at my castle." Twilight ordered before she flew out of the school and the Young Six, Rockruff, Wooloo and Rotom Dex followed.

My Little Kirin Chronicles: Friendship is Magic

At Twilight's Castle...

The Mane 6, Young Six, Rockruff, Wooloo and Rotom Dex were in the throne room and Twilight explained to the girls what happened. "So these crystal vines just came out of nowhere, grabbed Summer, and teleported away with her?" Rainbow summarized.

"Yes, we don't know where the vines came from or even if they're good or bad news." Sandbar added.

Twilight looked through all the books she had on the flora of Equestria and found nothing about crystal vines. "There's nothing in my books about crystal vines."

"The only strange vines we've encounter were those ghastly Plunder vines that sprouted from Discord when the Tree of Harmony lost its magic." Rarity stated, shuddering remembering those black vines.

"Wait... Discord! That's it! Maybe he can help us find Summer." Twilight realized. And speaking of the Lord of Chaos, "Oh, did somepony mention me?" Discord said as he appeared laying on the Cutie Map. "Discord, we need you're help." Fluttershy said to him.

"With what?" Discord asked.

"Our friend, Summer Blaze, she was taken by these crystal vines and she was teleported away." Sandbar said. "Do you have any idea where they could have taken her?"

"Well obviously, your little friend was taken to the Tree of Harmony." Discord said nonchalantly.

"WHAT?!" Everyone gasped.

"The Tree of Harmony? Why would that tree be connected to the crystal vines?" Gallus questioned the Lord of Chaos, confused.

"Twilight said that the Tree seems to have a mind of its own, since it grew her castle and spouted the chest that helped you defeat Tirek so maybe it took Summer Blaze for something important." Discord stated, brushing his goatee with a fork.

"But what would that be?" Ocellus wondered.

"We'll just have to go there and find out.." Twilight stated boldly.

"We wanna come to, she's our friend too." Sandbar volunteered. The Young Six nodded in agreement and Wooloo and Rockruff cried out in agreement. "I wanna come too, the three of us promised to keep her safe." Rotom Dex stated, pointing to Rockruff and Wooloo.

"Right, alright everypony and creature, let's pack and get moving." Twilight stated proudly.

Meanwhile in the Everfree Forest...

Summer's POV

I coughed as I rubbed my eyes and I looked around at the thick flora around me. "What the-? The Everfree Forest... what am I doing in here?" I asked myself. I read about the Everfree Forest. Clouds move on their own, animals care for themselves and the plants grow on their own as well. Which wasn't that different from the Peaks of Peril, but still it did give me a creepy feeling in my stomach.

I stood up and looked around. "Why would those vines bring me here?" I wondered. I knew there was no way I could find a way out since I didn't know exactly how deep into the Everfree Forest I was, so the only option I had... "Guess I better start walking.." and with that, I walked into the Everfree Forest, hopefully to find a way out.

I didn't know how long I was walking for, but I knew I wasn't getting any closer to a way out. I sighed. Then I came to a large castle that looked to be in ruins. "The Castle of the Two Sisters?" I looked and saw a staircase that led into a cave. Curious, I walked down the staircase and I entered the cave. "Woah...." In front of me was Tree of Harmony. It was even more beautiful in person than I thought. I walked towards it looking at the purple crystals on the wall. "Awesome..." I gasped.

Suddenly the five Elements glowed and sent a stripe towards the Element of Magic and it sent a magical stripe down which lit up a moon symbol and a sun symbol before trailing down on of the small roots and sprouted a small flower. I walked over to the flower and I touched the petals. It glowed in rainbow colors before it opened, revealing a golden necklace with a white heart shaped gem in the center.

Woah... this looks like the other Elements of Harmony... but... it couldn't be... The necklace magically floated into the air and attached itself to my neck. Okay... this is new..

I touched the necklace and the gemstone, "Wow..." Suddenly there was a purple glow behind me and I saw a sparkling version of Twilight in front of me. "Hello Summer Blaze.."

"W-Who are you and h-how do you know my name?" I asked confused.

"I'm the Tree of Harmony and I know many things about you, Summer." Astral Twilight explained. "You've peeked my interest, Summer. I've noticed you have excelled with your kirin magic but your learning about the Magic of Friendship, right?" I nodded. "Then I'd like to present you a small offer, Summer Blaze, I would like you to be my pupil."

"HUH?!" I exclaimed. The Tree of Harmony wanted me to be its pupil?! Astral Twilight chuckled, "I know this is a surprise, but I've grown interested in you and want to see what will become of you. You'll report to me your findings on the Magic of Friendship from your new home in Ponyville." I was still shocked at this but I recovered, "O-Okay, but what about..?" My hoof trailed to my necklace and Astral Twilight smiled, "Consider it a small gift from me. I wish you luck on your findings Summer. " With that she vanished in a white flash and I suddenly found myself... in Twilight's throne room?

"What the-?"

"SUMMER!"

Wah! I was suddenly tackled by a relived Yona. "Yona so glad Summer back." she said.

"Hehe... thanks.. Yona.." I said as she got off of me and the other approached me. "Are you alright, Summer?" Ocellus asked.

"Yeah, I'm okay.." I said, brushing myself off.

"Uh, what's with the necklace?" Gallus asked, noticing my necklace. Twilight and the Mane 6 saw it too, "It looks like the Elements of Harmony, but that's impossible.. right?" Twilight asked me. I gave her a sheepish smile, "Well..." and I explained what happened in the Everfree Forest and boy, were they shocked.

"The Tree of Harmony made you its pupil?! And gave you another Element of Harmony?!" Twilight exclaimed, jaw dropped.

"Woo-wee, that sure is one dozy." Applejack stated.

"I'll say." Rainbow agreed. Silverstream looked closely my the heart shaped gemstone, "Wonder what Element you represent?" she wondered.

"I don't know. The Tree said to report to it my findings on the Magic of Friendship." I added.

"Sounds like what Princess Celestia had to do back when I was her student." Twilight complimented.

"What a way to end your first day, huh Summer?" Sandbar smiled. Everyone, including me, laughed together. "Come on everypony and every creature, its getting late." Twilight said. The Young Six nodded and Applejack and Rainbow led the six back to the school while Twilight showed me my room. "Here you go, Summer, you're own room."

"Woah..." My room was medium sized with a bed with four poles on the corners with a cover on it. There was a dresser nearby with a mirror over top of it. There was even a small bookshelf that held all the books I packed. "I took the liberty of placing out your books and placing them on the bookshelf for you." Twilight grinned.

I turned to her, "Thanks."

"No problem. If you need anything, just come and find me or Spike." Twilight said before she closed the door. I climbed into bed and I took off my necklace and placed it on the side of my pillow. "Wonder what the Tree of Harmony wants with me...?" I wondered as my eyes slowly closed and I fell asleep for the night.
