The Outcast/Reclaiming

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

The gate guards to the city, the first line of warning, have seen a lot of strange ponies come and go from the walls, But his one was... very different. Hardly talked. Hardly moved. Hardly breathed, it seemed. "Hey, uhhh... Why dont you go get Dash down here, we need vericifation." He turned around to check if he was doing as told, and when he looked back, the pony was gone. Not just walking away, truly gone. "Cloudreign, where'd that pony go?" he called out, turning into a trot towards the shack. "How am I supposed to know, you were standing right in front of him... her... IT." he said and walked out puzzled. "You call for Dash?" the other asked. "No, I've been standing here wonderng what the hay you took this morning to lose track of a pony standing right in front of you..." he said, staring him down. A silence took over, and the wind slipped through the slightly-opened gate.

But it wasnt just the wind that slipped in. Nopony could see  it, as it slipped through alleys, through the maze of streets that composed the town. But even the wind must stop, and so it did. The whistling of a breeze turned into the tapping of hoofs on cobblestone, as a shapeless figure made its was towards the light at the end of the alley. It could see the vendors, one was almost deat at the end of the alley way. Running it was an orange earth pony with a blonde mane, who talked with a funny accent in her voice. The pony walked lightly across the hall, quiet as the wind itself, drawing nearer and nearer, almost-- *CRASH* --barrels upon barrels of something rolled over the body in the hallway, and the orange pony looked back, startled. Franticly, it tried to get out from uder the barrels, but the orange pony had a lantern wnd was heading straight towards her. "What in tarnation... oh now, who's this?" she said, looking down at the trapped unicorn. "I can explain, later. Help me up?" He asked, and held out a hoof. His accent was thick, like Applejacks, but Bitish. Applejack pulled him free and brushed herself off. "Okay, now... when were you planning to explain yourself?" He thought for a moment. "Tonight. I know you, and your freinds though. You and your freinds need to hear about this tonight." He thanked her kindly and went about his way.

Applejack had gotten all the others into her room, and they waited. They all faced the door, anticipating the a knock. "Okay, so here's what i have." a voice from behind them called, and they all turned around alarmed. "How did you..." Twilight started, but the unicorn just started up louder "The name is Shadow Sliver, by the way. You five, once six, are the elements of harmony. I have a l litle slice of reality for you: your powers no longer work. They all need to be together. That means that Pinkie wont make you laugh, take jokes as easily, or laugh herself. Dash could easily become an unloyal burden. Applejack, you may find it harder not to lie. Here's the truth: You may think you're all extraordinary ponies, but you arent. Now that the element has no effect, you lot are just another bunch of ponies, regular citezens of the town. My freinds and I can change that: me, along with two others are the elements of battle: Silence, Rage, and Command. Now, so far: any questions?" he asked, and Twilight spoke up first. "Where are these other two you spoke of?" He looked out the window for a second. "On their way here, actually. Now, we knew about Fluttershy, and have a plan to keep your elements alive: We have built a catalyst, that will take the elements DNA and transfer it into another pony. Simple, right?" he asked, looking around at the faces. "Not really, because Fluttershy is now a mutant beast, and if we need to get her element's DNA, then..." Dash trailed off, slowly coming to the realization of that would have to happen first.

"Well, then..." Shadow said. "Put the 'beast' down."

Hundreds of miles away, Polaris Command Center, Crystal Mountains

Even after twenty years, the dust remain settled, a sheet over the rubble that had fellen during the fateful day of invasion. The bodies that were mecilessly slaughtered then lay crystalized. After all, thats how the mountains got their name. But out of all the crystals, one could easily pick out a specific one. Twice as large. Glowing faintly. Cracking. Chips fell off of the structure. Chunks. Sheets. The crashing echoed throughout the entire mountaintop, then silence.

*clicklack, clicklack, clicklack* Hoofsteps rang through the ruined fortress, as a midnight blue Alicorn stepped forward, released from the icy chains that bound her, that froze her blood in the veins, and she looked up to her dying moon. Her horn began to glow, and she sent a beam of pure energy into space. She had no reason to ensure that it hit: Midnight energy fids its way to its origin. Minutes passed, and the moon began glowing brighter, and brighter yet, as the Princess of the night reclaimed her throne.
