Search for the students

Previous Chapter

Twilight was laying in the gound of the library, watching the place where the students have been seconds ago, before being pulled by that weird portal. She didn't know what had just happened. The only possible clue she found was the weird rock. She took it from the ground and examined it. She then saw the drawing of the human with wings and got a bad feeling about it.

Is it possible this artefact is created by humans to send us to another world so that they can rule Equestria?She thought.No. That is impossible. They don't have magic and I doubt that they used any sort of magical artifact to create this rock. After all, they can't enter to the places were they are kept. But even if they, the real question is: where did the students went to?!

She couldn't even finish that thought because spike had just entered the library.

"Hey, Twilight. The event is about to start so we need..." He then sawed all the mess made in the library. Books laying in the floor, ripped pages, a broken table and even a shelf lying on the floor. "Wh-what happened here?"

"Spike, tell the others to cancel the event and when they're done, tell them to bring Thorax, Ember, Rutherford, Grampa Gruff, Sandbar's family and Sky Beak. When you finish that, send a letter to Celestia and Luna telling them that they needs to come here ASAP." She said with a worried expression on her face.

"Ok." Spike said a bkt nervous by how Twilight looked. He left the library and went to find the others.


2 hours later, Celestia and Luna entered to the proffesor room. The mane 6, Starlight, Spike and the students guardians, except Grampa Gruff and Sandbar's family, were in there across a long table. (Sandbar's family wasn't there because they were in a little trip for 2 weeks and Sandbar decided to stay with his friends. Grampa Gruff... well, he didn't care about what could happen to Gallus.)

"Princess Celestia and Princess Luna. I'm glad that you arrived." Twlight said.

"Sorry about that Twilight. We had to cancel a few meetings before we could come here. I hope that we arrived just in time." Celestia said.

"You did. We all just came in a few seconds ago so you didn't arrive late." Twilight explained.

"That's good. But why did you call us here, Twilight?" Luna asked.

Twilight gave a sigh. "Well, this is quite hard to explain. I was preparing everything for the ceremony when I realized that Sandbar, Smolder, Gallus, Silverstream, Ocellus and Yona were not in the yard. I searched for them and heard them in the library. But when I entered, there was a weird blue portal that was absorbing everything in the library. The students were hoding a bookshelf to be safe and I did the same. Unfortunately, the bookshelf they were grabbing broke and they were pulled by the portal. After that, I let go of the bookshelf and tried to get them. Sadly, when they crossed it, the portal closed, so know I don't know how to find them."

After hearing all of this, everyone in the room were shocked and confused. But the guardians were mainly nervous and worried about were could the students have gone.

"Are you telling us that all of them were sucked to somewhere else and you don't have any idea of where they are?" Thorax asked.

"That is correct Thorax. There is no way that I can think of that can help us find them." Twilight answered.

"Then how are we supposed to find them?" Sky Beak asked.

"Well, like I said, we don't know their location. But I think that I have something that might help."

Twilight then placed the rock cube in the table. Everyone looked at it, especially the weird drawing that it had on one of its sides.

"What is that thing?" Ember asked.

"I'm not exactly sure, but I think it has something to do with that weird portal. When it closed, that cubed appeared in the middle of the ground, so I think that we can all say that this cube is the thing that opened the portal." Twilight explained.

"But how did this weird rock opened a portal? And most importantly, why was it there?" Thorax asked.

"I don't know how was it capable of opening a portal. But I think that it has some sort of relation wit the humans. After all, I'm pretty sure that this drawing represents a really powerful one." Twilight theorized.

"Or maybe is just a drawing they made when they found this rock." Pinkie said. Everyone looked at her. "What? If I didn't have fun for a vary long time, I would have drawed a figure that represents our species."

"Pinkie, I'm pretty sure that your theory is totally wrong." Rainbow said.

Before Pinkie could reply, Twilight decided to stop that talk before they forgot what was the purpose of the meeting. "You two, please stop. We have a bigger problem to deal with right know." Rainbow and Pinkie calmed down and then Twilight started talking again: "Thanks. As for this cube, I think that the students found it in the little trip they did before the ceremony. I will search for the meaning of this weird human drawing so that I can at least get some clues of where the students are."

"Twilight, I think that we may have an idea." Celestia said.

Everyone in the room turned around and looked at Celestia and Luna. Luna was the one that decided to explain what they knew.

"Back in our old castle, there was a special book that explained things about the humans, like how they tried to conquer us and other things. But there was also a long section dedicated to the legend of a world full of humans. It said that in that world they ruled and that they had many wars and some other things that we don't want to mention."

"Ok. But, what does that have to do with this rock." Twilight asked.

"The book has a drawing of that same human drawing in its pages. It said that when the stone that had this drawing was located, we would be capable of using a rock portal that connected both worlds. It also said that it this rock would also be capable of opening portals to that world every once in a while, so I think that the best explanation would be that that rock is the one mentioned and that the students have travelled to the human world." Celestia explained.

Everyone remained silent after hearing that. Twilight decided to break the silence with a question.

"Are you saying that the human world rumor could be real and that the students have been taken there?" She asked with a nervous voice and shaking.

Celestia sighed and then said: "Yes. I'm afraid that the human world is real and that the students have been taken there."

Everyone was shocked when they heard that. The six students where in a world that was full of violent monsters and they probably couldn't find a way back.

"You're telling me that they are in a place full of those monsters. Oh no. What if they try to force them to be slaves or try to hurt them or...?" Sky Beak was quickly interrupted by Ember.

"Hold on a second. They may be in a world full, but that doesn't mean that they can't defend themselves. The dragons can deal with any type with creature, especially with humans. Or did you forgot to who they send them when they don't obey their masters and cause trouble."

"Dragon is right." Rutherford said. "Yaks aren't weak and we smash humans with no problem."

"Yes, I know that you know how to deal with humans, but you only deal with a certain amount of them and with more memebers of your species. The students, on the other hand, are stuck in a world that is full of humans. That means that they can't defend from them. It's only six against what could possibly be a whole army of them." Twilight reasoned.

That left all of them even more worried. No mather how skilled or from what species the students came, they wouldn't be able to fight against the human.

"So, is there any way we can bring them back?" Twilight asked Celestia.

"Well, there might be. If that legend is true, then the best option might be to find that portal and go to the human world so that we can rescue them." She answered.

"That's good. But I remind you that we still don't know where the portal is." Thorax reminded.

"Actually, I think that I know where it is. In fact, it may be the one in the cave that you explored recently." Celestia said.

Twilight then looked at Celestia with her mouth open. The others did the same thing. "What makes you think that?"

"The main reason is that the only portal made of rock that we could find hidden in Equestria and we still can't use is that one. And even if it wasn't, we haven't found any other rock portals in Equestria, so this is our only clue."

Twilight thought about it for a moment and then said: "Ok.I just hope that it helps us bring back the students. I suggest that you come with us." She said the last part to her friends and the other creatures. They all agreed.


It only took like 20 minutes to get to the cave's entrance. They had to walk because magic didn't seem to work there correctly, or at least teleportation magic. When they entered, they could only see a really long path that was covered in darkness. Using her horn, Twilight managed to light the cave. After walking for some minutes, they found the rock portal that celestia had told them about.

"Is this the portal you were talking about?" Thorax asked.

"Yes it is." Twilight answered.

"It look really dirty. But I guess that anything that is made from rock is dirty." Rarity comented.

"I don't think that this is the best time to analize the detail of this thing Rarity." Rainbow said.

"How do we activate this portal thingy?" Ember asked.

"I don't know. The book said that we needed the rock to activate it, but it didn't say how." Celestia said.

"Maybe we need to use a really powerful spell?" Twlight suggested.

"Or maybe this runes give us a message of how to use it." Starlight added.

"Or maybe we just need to put the rock cube in this other rock." Pinkie said as she pointed to a rock in the ground. It had a hole that was shaped as a square and it looked designed for the cube.

"Yeah. That might be the aswer." Twilight said as she inserted the cube in the hole.

When it entered, the whole cave started shaking like crazy which caused everyone to fell to the ground. After a few seconds, it stopped. When everyone got up, they sawed that the runes in the portal were starting to glow and the portal was starting to open.

"I think that it is opening." Twilight said.

"Let's go then." Rainbow said as she went straight to the portal. Unfortunately, it closed just when she was about to cross it, which caused her crash directly in the wall. She groaned in pain. "That hurt."

"What just happened?" Sky Beak asked.

"I don't know." Twilight said. She then sawed that the cube came out of the hole with a big strenght and after that it fell to the ground.

"Do you thing something went wrong?" Starlight asked.

"I'm not sure, but I think that the cube can't open the portal. We might need something else." Twilight said. She then turned to Celestia and asked: "Do you think that you can show me the book you mentioned? It might explain how to use this."

Celestia nodded and said: "Yes Twilight. When get back I will show you the book and we might find a way to get to the human world."

"Hey, there is something I'm wondering. What will we do to the humans when we get there?" Thorax asked.

Everyone looked between themselves. They had been so focused on getting to the human world that they had forgotten that they would still have to deal with the humans. Ember then said:

"Well, clearly we can't do much alone, so I suggest that we bring our armies so that we can fight against humanity. They won't stand a chance."

"Yak agree with dragon. Tha yaks will fight against humans." Rutherford said.

"I will also help alongside the other hipogriffs." Sky Beak said.

"The ponies will also help." Celestia said. "I could even try to talk with the griffins and convince them to help us and..."

"Hold on a second. Are we sure that this is the best option we have?" Thorax asked. Everyone looked at him with a shocked face. "I mean that we might be taking really desesperate actions. What if just try to do this in a peaceful way?"

Rainbow Dash that went towards him and standed just in front of his eyes. "A peaceful way?! Thorax, did you forgot that the humans are monsters? We can't possibly make peace with them!"

"But what if the humans in that world are different? We might even start a war that can be avoided."

"Listen Thorax. All the humans are monsters, no mather where they exist. They cause chaos and they never change. In the human world it will only be worse!"

Celestia stood in front of Rainbow and gave her a look that made her stop. "What Rainbow is trying to say is that the humans can be extremly dangerous if they are free and that they can cause a lot of damage to any other creature they find. I hope you understand."

Thorax thought about it for a while and the said: "If you say so. And if you're going to fight against the humans, the changelings will help."

"Thanks Thorax. Now let's head to Canterlot so we can find the book." Celestia said. Everyone then followed her to the exit.

When they left however, a weird black smoke came from the portal and formed an terrifying face. It then showed a big sinister smile.

"Thanks to you fools, a war will start, and I will be stronger than ever. I will only have to get rid of anyone who tries to make peace." He said as he vanished.


In the military center of the human world, Pedro was talking with Michael about the energy levels of the portal in a small room when, all of a sudden, the ground started shaking in the whole place. This made them fall with various other objects in the room. After a while however it stopped.

"What in the world was that?!" Pedro asked himself as he standed up.

"No idea. I think that we should get out and see what..." Michael started when someone came in the room quickly.

"Michael, Pedro, we need you to go to the portal room. Something just happened." He said.

Michael and Pedro were surprised by that and they inmediatly went to the portal room. When they arrived, they sawed other scientist staring at the computers that were connected to the portal.

"What happened?" Michael asked to one of them.

"We don't know. We were doing the routine check on the portal when that weird earthquake happened. When it stopped, the portal oppened for a few second and then closed. But some of the others believe that they heard voices on the other side before it closed."

Michael and Pedro's eyes were wide open when they heard that. They booth sawed the portal carefully to see if it was damaged.

"I wonder what turned the portal on. And what do you think that those voices were?" Michael asked Pedro.

"I have no idea. I just hope that it isn't anything that could cause harm to our people." He answered.

Neither of them knew it, but that was just the start of something bigger.
