Reduced to Ponies

"Twilight Sparkle, my faithful student, it's nice it is to see you." A melodious voice said warmly.

"Tis good to see you as well, Twilight." A more regal voice then said.

Twilight stood there for a second before quickly moving aside to let them in. Palkia then narrowed his eyes as the two alicorn sisters walked into the library. The first was very tall white pony walked in, everything about her movements told him that this pony was in charge. With wings much larger than the tiny wings Rainbow Dash sported, from her head spouted long spiraled horn about four inches longer than his. A blazing sun tattooed her side though partially hidden by the long flowing mane consisting of green, blue, purple and pink. A small gold tiara with a small purple jewel adorned her head just above her horn. Her eyes were a pink and had a playful light to them. He could already he was not going to like this pony.

Followed by the white alicorn was a mare of midnight blue and black tiara, instead of a mane of different colors hers looked like they were made of the night sky itself. She was much smaller than her counterpart and had deep blue eyes though instead of a sun she had a crescent moon on a splash of black.

Twilight then walked to stand beside them and gestured towards the white one with a hoof,"Palkia, Dialga, this is Princess Celestia, Co-Ruler of Equestria, and my mentor."

"Pleased to meet you." He scrunched up his nose in response.

"And this," Twilight said now gesturing towards the dark blue alicorn," is Princess Luna, Co-Ruler of Equestra and raiser of the moon."

"Charmed." Princess Luna said in a slightly louder tone of voice. He gave her the same response as Celestia's.

Princess Luna's eyes narrowed and opened her mouth to object, when Princess Celestia rested a hoof on her sister's shoulder, Luna looked at her sister and back at Palkia for a moment before giving a small hrrmph.

"Princesses, these are Palkia, and Dialga, they actually wanted to speak with you!" Twilight beamed.

"Interesting names, may I ask where you are from?" Celestia inquired.

He stepped forward to the alicorn only coming the middle of her neck in height. He raised his chin and looked directly in her eyes. "I am a legendary Pokemon from many dimensions and I am the Ruler of Space itself! And I demand that I am returned to my former state, if you even have the power to do so, which I doubt."

Twilight and Luna looked apalled, Celestia raised an eyebrow, while Dialga just sighed.

"And where are you from?" She asked looking past him and resting her eyes on Dialga. He felt his anger rise once more.

"I am also a legendary Pokemon, and Ruler of Time."

"I will not be ignored by such a pathetic pony such as yourself! I am Palkia, if I had my power you would no longer exist!" He walked forwards so that he was nose to nose with the white alicorn, scowling. Which was then cut off as he felt magic envelope him and throw him against a bookshelf cracking it slightly. He fell to the floor ungraciously, he then got up to fight back but was then found paralyzed.

He could only move his eyes around and found that it was Luna's horn that was glowing.

"Luna, that was not necessary."

"Yes it was, Tia. He was threatening you." She said still focusing on me.

"And we both know that I can handle him on my own." Celestia said resting a hoof on her shoulder while chuckling a bit.

How dare she!? Luna relaxed, but had still not released him.

He tried to yell 'Release Me!' but it came out more along the lines of 'Mmmph hmph!'. He was still angry but he could see no point of charging at her again.

"Will you behave?" Celestia teased. He only narrowed his eyes in return."Luna you can undo your spell now."

Dialga who had a slight smile at fact that Palkia could no longer move or talk looked a little disappointed at this announcement. Luna's horn stopped glowing. And his previous momentum caused him to land on the floor face first. Twilight tried hide a giggle by turning it into a cough and covering her mouth with a hoof.

"Anyway, back to business. Twilight, Luna and I have felt a very powerful magical disturbance from the area around Ponyville and I'm guessing it was caused by these two." Celestia nodded towards Dialga and him. He had now gotten up but his nose was now sore, as was his pride, but was now rubbing it with his hoof.

"I'm not sure we are Princess." Dialga answered.

"How so?"

"I felt something that differed greatly from our power, something very old."

"And how is it that I did not feel this?" Palkia questioned.

"My power is more refined and more sensitive to different kinds of power, while yours is just brute strength."

"And this old power are you talking about...."

"Yes Palkia...Giratina."

"Now that is a name I thought I would never hear again."

The three other ponies noticed the change atmosphere around the two. Celestia was the first to speak up.

"Who is Giratina?"

"A very clever and malevolent ghost/dragon type, that we thought we destroyed a long long time ago. It was the only time Palkia and I worked together."

"Reminds me of Discord, sister."

"Would you mind telling us the story?"

"I'm sorry but we cannot, not yet. Not until I have confirmed it."

"I understand... instead how about we talk about your cutie marks?"

"Cutie marks? That's an even more ridiculous name than Ponyville!" He exclaimed.

"The mark you get when you discover your special talent, like how mine is the Sun for raising the sun every morning or how Twilght's represents her special talent as magic."

He then looked at where his supposed 'cutie mark' was. What was there was a teardrop shape with a circle in the middle and four stars inside. The largest six pointed star was grey almost white that nearly blended into his coat. The other three stars were five pointed and each a different color. One grey, another blue, and the last one pink. He saw no point in this insignificant mark.

He looked over at Dialga's. Hers was a green gear with little designs, behind it was what looked like a grey diamond shaped piece of steel.

"It is an interesting design, Palkia. What does it mean?"

"I do not know, though I suspect it is something to do with the fact that I am the Ruler of Space."

"And you Dialga?"

"It's a time gear with a peice of steel." She thought for a moment."I will not make assumptions yet though."

Celestia looked out the window to see that the sun was setting and sighed.  "It's time to go Luna."

"Very well sister, farewell Twilight Sparkle."

"Yes well goodbye my faithful student."

Twilight opened the door for and them and the two Royal sisters took flight as they went outside. Palkia watched them for a couple minutes before they were barely specks against the orange sky. He slowly walked back inside.

"Well it looks like you two have nowhere to stay so your welcome to stay here."

"Very well." Dialga answered before he say anything.

Just then Spike came barging through the door, sweating."Sorry.... Twilight I...was..."

"It's alright Spike, in fact your just in time."

"I am?" he said finally regaining his breath.

"Yes I need you to get some pillows and blankets for our guests."

"They're staying w-with us?" Spike said as he looked at the two very tall unicorns.

"Yes, now remember to put them on opposite sides of the room."

"Ok, Twilight!" He then ran upstairs to the closet.

Once settled, Palkia found himself deep in thought unable to sleep. He was not used to it, for he had no need of it in his other form. But eventually he found himself closing his eyes submitting to the fatigue that manifested itself.

Gold armored hooves softly touched the grass beneath them, barely even disturbing the peace that had settled onto the field as night fell.

"Interesting form." It said looking itself over. "This will be oh so much fun."

The red eyed alicorn smiled wickedly in the moonlight glinting of it's gold helmet. The woodland creatures were then scared away as it started to laugh, not a normal evil laugh though. It was the laugh of an insane being filled with hate.
