Assassin's Creed: Friendship is Magic

It was a few days after Twilight and her five friends had returned from the Crystal Empire when Twilight had received a letter from Princess Celestia explaining that the Elements of Harmony had been glowing and emitting strange noises, and that she should get her and her friends to Canterlot as soon as possible.

“What does it say Twilight?” Asked a drowsy Spike, who had been awoken by his letter delivering duties while trying to nap away all his napping time he had missed when he and Twilight and her friends were in the Crystal Empire.

“It says we should get the girls and head to Canterlot right away.” Said a confused and worried Twilight as she reread the letter.

“You want me to get the girls don’t you?” Mumbled Spike as he headed for the door. “No need Spike. I’ve been practicing on that teleportation spell that should bring the girls to my location.”

Twilight readied her horn. “Don’t you remember what happened last time?” Spike looked worried as he recounted the event.

“Well how was I supposed to know that Pinkie was carrying a cake and that Rarity was trying on her new dress?”

Twilight’s horn grew brighter as she concentrated on the spell. Spike jumped behind the couch wanting to be out of the way of the possible shenanigans that may or may not ensue.

“Just saying you should probably warn them.” Just as he said that, the room was filled with bright purple light, as the five mares were teleported into the main room of Twilight’s library.

“What in tarnation was that?” Asked Applejack as she stumbled around the room, trying to recover her vision.

“AJ? Is that you?” Rainbow Dash said just before she fell onto the ground.

“Dashie?” Pinkie asked as she lifted her face out of a cake she had been decorating.

“Who’s that on top of me?” Rarity asked as she tried to stand up.

“Oh I’m sorry Rarity, I didn’t mean to hurt you.” Apologized Fluttershy as she flapped her wings and got off of Rarity.

“Wait there just an apple pickin’ minute, Twi did ya perform that crazy spell again?” Applejack inquired as she began to make out a purple blur in front of her.

“I’ll tell you on the way to Canterlot.” Twilight said as she motioned to the door of the library.

“Spike you stay here and make sure nothing bad happens to the library.” Spike looked upset that he didn’t get to come with them. “Fiiiine Twilight.” He said as he returned to his nap.

“So she said they were just glowing and making noises? What’s the big deal?” Rainbow Dash asked as she and her friends got exited the express train to Canterlot.

“The big deal is that they’ve never done that by themselves before.” Said Twilight, agitated at how calmly Rainbow had been handling the situation.

“They only do that when they’re being used.” “And if they’re doin’ that when they aint bein’ used then that means somethin’ mighty strange is goin’ on.” Said Applejack in a serious tone.

“I just hope there will be cupcakes!” Pinkie said as she bounced around the group.

A few minutes later they had reached the Canterlot Castle and were greeted by Princess Luna “It is good that you have come my little ponies, my sister waits for you in the throne room.” Princess Luna began to walk with the group to the throne room.

When the royal guards opened the doors to the throne room they saw Princess Celestia holding the Elements of Harmony with her magic. “I am glad you could come my little ponies, the Elements have been troubling me for quite some time now.”

Each mare approached her element. “Oh they look so beautiful like this!” Rarity’s eyes grew bigger as she approached hers.

“Are they safe to touch princess?” Twilight asked. “I think so, but be careful, I don’t want any of you to get hurt.” Princess Celestia looked and sounded concerned. Each Element bearer warily touched their element, as soon as they did the bright golden light became brighter and the whirring noise they were making became louder, with a magnificent flash, each element bearer was gone.

The six mares woke up in a dark place with bright gold glowing symbols; each of them had worried and confused looks on their faces, Fluttershy looked terrified.

“Where are we?” She asked shakily looking.

“Do not be afraid.” A tall, glowing, bipedal creature stood before them.

“EEEP!” Fluttershy screamed as she hid behind Rainbow Dash.

“I am Juno, and I mean you no harm.”

“What do you want from us you big glowy alien?” Rainbow asked as she tried to comfort Fluttershy.

“I require your help. The objects you call the Elements of Harmony, they are artifacts from my people, The First Civilization. We are all but gone from this world, but there are two factions who fight over control over our tools, one fights for peace and freedom, the other, fights for control and manipulation. The first use this symbol.” A stylized letter ’A’ appeared in front of them. “ Seek this symbol and help it’s creeds followers. They are the Assassins. Beware of this symbol.” A cross appeared took the first symbols place “The followers of this symbol are the Templars, they are the enemies of the Assassins, and will stop at nothing for control over all people. In order for you to help the Assassins, your bodies must be changed to that of Humans, now go! There isn’t much time.”

The six mares looked at each other in confusion just as a bright light enveloped them all.

Twilight felt the cold sting of ocean water against her dry fur, except she didn’t have fur; she noticed her body was different, except for her head she was completely hairless, her fore hooves had been replaced with strange, thin, more flexible things with five smaller, opposable digits, she felt her back legs were different as well, they bent differently and she felt longer things on the end of them that were different from her hooves.

She looked over to her friends who were doing the same as her; Rainbow and Fluttershy noticed they didn’t have their wings, and Twilight and Rarity noticed they didn’t have their horns either, Applejack and Pinkie just looked at them with a smug look that said, “It’s times like these when it’s great to be an earth pony or whatever it was that they were now.

They heard loud booms in the distance and noticed that they were surrounded by floating bits of wood and destroyed ships.

Connor ordered the main cannons to fire on the last British warship, bringing her to her watery grave. “We have victory men, we’re returning to Davenport!”

The men yelled in celebration of their victory. The Aquila had barely any battle scars on her after their battle with the British, which always made Connor happy, his thoughts were interrupted when Mr. Faulkner came up to him with a telescope.

“Survivors off to starboard Captain.” Connor took the telescope from his first mate and looked through its eyepiece with his eagle vision. He saw six people glowing gold and struggling to stay afloat; upon closer inspection he could see that they were women, he knew women weren’t allowed on any warship and that they must be civilians.

He grabbed the wheel and brought the ship starboard. “Full sail men!” He yelled to the crew, as he got closer he ordered the crew to bring in the ships sails bringing her to a nearly instantaneous stop.

He grabbed an unused rope and dived into the water, he swam towards them as fast as he could, noticing they were nearly sinking.

“Grab the rope! Hurry!” The six women grabbed hold of the rope, he noticed that their hair was a color that he had never seen people have before, he noticed the one with purple hair and a pink streak took notice of the assassin insignia on his gauntlet but he pushed his curiosity aside. “Pull us in!” “Aye captain!” Came the reply.

A rope ladder came down from the side of the ship the man who had been confirmed as the captain climbed onto the side of the ship and helped up Twilight and her friends and they sat on the deck against the railing, the captain ordered a man he called Mr. Faulkner to get them some blankets, Twilight wondered why when she looked at herself and her friends and realized that they were naked except for there elements, and shivering, it didn’t take long for her to realize that nakedness was probably frowned upon in their society as everyone onboard seemed to be wearing clothing.

The one referred to as Mr. Faulkner handed the captain the blankets and turned to face the rest of the crew and yelled. “Alright ya sea dogs get back to work we’ve still got to get home, best you remember that!” The captain handed them the blankets.

Connor used his eagle vision to inspect the now covered women, he noticed they were still glowing gold and they didn’t seem like much of a threat, so it was safe for him to assume that they were not assassination targets, he decided it would be best if he introduced himself. “My name is Connor, I am the captain of the Aquila. Who are you?” Just about as they were opening their mouths to speak, he heard Mr. Faulkner yell. “Captain, Man-O’-War, port bow!”

Authors note: I don’t know when this will be updated or how long it will last. My grammar and punctuation is probably shit and I’m sorry for the huge wall of text style paragraphs and I wouldn’t be surprised if nobody ever takes notice of this.

Also the lack of AC crossovers with Connor in them kinda rustled my jimmies
