//-------------------------------------------------------// Thunderdash -by NightAria454- //-------------------------------------------------------// //-------------------------------------------------------// The meeting //-------------------------------------------------------// The meeting Chapter 2 The meeting "so you are not from here?", asked twilight. "No I am not, I was human", I said, "but how did you get here?" asked twilight, "I don't know twilight." I said. "Oh yeah I forgot, welcome to equestria, well more specifically ponyville."twilight said. Maverick could not beleve his ears he was in equestria of all places but how could this be and why is he an alicorn not a pegasi, unicorn, or earth pony. "twilight are there any mentions in pony history of a human coming to equestria as ponies ?", I said. "no, not to my knowledge," twilight answered with a shrug. "Hey thunder you wanna race ?", asked rainbowdash. "sure if you can keep up with me when I get into practice," I said with a smirk. "Hey I'm the best young flyer in equestria you can't beat me!", rainbowdash said In her usual show off tone. "Ok you two stop this nonsense," twilight said. "We should go see princess celestia she may have books that explain what you asked me about thunder", twilight said. The three of us set off for canterlot to see what celestia has on this topic, and to see what she decides to do about me in general. "We are here", said twilight " welcome to cantorlot". After we got off the train I looked down the walkway to the castle it was amazing, buildings and shops lined with objects for sale. We had made our way up to the castle following the back roads so as to not draw attention to me, twilight said it had something to do with the fact I am an alicorn and also that I am not familiar with four legs instead of two. Twilight lead us to a small door twilight said that rainbow dash had to stay outside and could not follow us. We got to celestias study, then twilight told me she had to go in first to explain this to the princess. "Ok twilight I'll wait right here outside", I said to her as she went in. "Oh twilight sparkle what are you doing here this is unexpected", Celestia said with a surprised tone. "I have someone here you need to see, you can come in now thunderdash" Twilight said. As soon as I entered princess Celestia face went from her normal face to a surprised and even astonished face. "Twilight were did he come from, and who is he I am not familiar with him, and I know almost everyone in the kingdom", asked celestia getting a bit worried as to why I was here. "Twilight is it ok if I tell her about who I am ?", I asked. "It is fine she won't think you are crazy", twilight said with a bit of a smirk. "Celestia this may come as a shock to you but I am human,", I said. "Your a human but you look like a pony", she said in disbelief. "I was human but I died and some how ended up here as a pony that I had drawn on paper," now she finally looked like she believed me. "So how did you die exactly if that's ok for me to ask ?", celestia said in a caring tone. "In my former life as a human I was bullied for believing that this world that was potraid in the tv show was real, so I decided to never mined I don't really feel like taking about it.", I said kind of stumbling over my words a bit. "Ah so that is how you know about equestria now I believe you are human,", celestia said. "I now about humans and there violence but there are a few of them like you that know violence is not a way to peace, but you were bullied because of what you liked.", celestia said a bit wavy as if something else was on her mind. There was a pause before twilight said that we should go, but before we left I had to ask celestia something. "celestia were is luna I have not seen her since we got here?", I asked knowing an answer might not come. " She has been in her room she says that people bug here because of night mare moon and how she acted,". "With your permission I could go and talk to her," I asked knowing the answer would be no. //-------------------------------------------------------// The Seventh Element //-------------------------------------------------------// The Seventh Element Chapter 3 The Seventh Element "But you have never met her," celestia said. "I know but when I was human people would ask me for advice about how to deal with bullies, I would sympathize with them and tell them what I would do,". "Oh ok you may try but she may not want to be visited I will see please wait here,". A few seconds later she returned and said that I was aloud to talk to her. "Thunderdash this is princess Luna," celestia said. Sitting on her bed looking out her window was Luna she looked depressed and would not even look up to say hi only move her eyes to look at me and then back to the window. Celestia and twilight left so I walked over and sat down on the floor beside her bed. "Luna, Celestia told me how you are bullied because you were night mare moon," I said. "I want to know why my subjects dislike me," she said " they always want to run or point and call me evil and think I'm are going to kill them all," she said now starting to cry. "I just want to leave and never come back or sleep and never wake up,". "Luna I went through this as well you just need to show them that you have changed and are not evil, infact by talking to you I can see that you are a nice person and you just need to show them that the bad is behind you," After that she stops crying and sat up she actually looked happy before I knew it she had kissed me, Luna kissed me out of no were. " Thank you thunderdash I will try your suggestion and see how it works". She said. " I hope It works well for you,". The princess was waiting outside and was overjoyed to hear that her sister had been cheered up. Suddenly I was being raised off of the ground, shards of some kind began to move around me and flew towards my neck. In a flash of light I was back on the ground and around my neck was a pendant that had a half black half red thunderbolt on it, it was kinda like my cutie mark but not all red. " This is not possibly there are only 6 not 7 right princess !?"asked twilight. "I agree twilight sparkle this is impossible,". " What is impossible I don't understand." I said "We should be going now,", twilight said. "Thank you for the visit twilight and it was nice to meet you thunderdash, but before you leave may I have that necklace from you?", Celestia asked. "Yes you may but can some one explain what this thing is?", I asked. "I could but you wouldn't understand it.", Celestia replied. "OK well we should get going you need to get back to your work," I said still wondering what this necklace had to do with. We left and met up with Rainbowdash, "So you ready to learn how to fly?", asked Rainbowdash. "Yeah but I'm gonna beat you.", I said as she went back to her competitive self. An hour had gone past of flying practice when Rainbowdash said " It's time to see if you can beat me in a race,". " I bet I can beat you," I said. So we raced and she beat me but not by that much, "See you can't beat me but you were definitely close, but I still won,", she said wile flying circles around me. When we landed it was already at least 8:00pm if not later. By the time we had gotten back to twilights it was 8:30, "Were have you guys been," twilight said in a tone if voice that made her sound like she was my mother. "We have been out flying and I won," Rainbowdash said wile flying around the library. "I am tired from practice I am going to go to bed," I said " Good night rainbow, good night twilight,". " Good night!" they answered in unison . I got up the next morning to hear whispers coming from outside the door, I walked over to the door and opened it. "SURPRISE!!!!,". //-------------------------------------------------------// Nightmares and Chaos //-------------------------------------------------------// Nightmares and Chaos Chapter 5: Nightmares and Chaos. "Luna is gone." said Celestia. "Gone what do y'all mean by gone?" Applejack said. "Thunder when you saw her last did she say anything odd?". "No not really." I said. Just then a guard came in. " Celestia, Luna has been spotted in the everfree forest." a look of re-leaf came over Celestia face. " She attacked two guards, the one that was still conscious said that she look different.". That look of re-leaf turned into a look of shock by the end of the guards sentence. "This is not possible she would never attack royal canterlot guards, never." Celestia said. "That could explain it." Twilight said in a random out burst. "What could explain it Twilight." I said. " I have a theory, I have been reading up on the history behind discord and he can enter minds and control them much like he did when he made us act opposite of our selves, that could explain why Luna attacked those guards." Twilight said. " Twilight I sense there's an 'or' coming." I said. "Yes, or it is....... Nightmare moon." Twi said. "Twilight she would never become Nightmare moon again, she promised her sister and herself that she would never become Nightmare moon again." I said. "Thunder...... I know you care about her but it could still be that." She said. " I REFUSE TO BELIEVE YOU!!" I yelled at her. "I WILL GO FIND LUNA AND BRING HER BACK.". I had begun to walk out when I heard a familiar voice. I turned around it was dash. " Hey what happened I thought you were supposed to be her friends....." she stopped, I wonder if she could see me crying. It had been a longtime since i had cried. "Thunder were all friends here why are you crying alone?" dash asked. "Did I tell you the conversation I had with Luna." I said. "No." dash answered. " She had told me that people were putting her down and were scared because of her past, I told her to do something, Wait she said that she was going to do something good and that she would never become, dash go tell everypony to meet me at the library." I said. " Ok." dash said. "Oh bring the elements with you including mine if Celestia is done with it." I said. " Wait when did you get one?" dash asked. "I got it after I talked with Luna." I said. "And you didn't tell me." dash said surprised. " I have to get every one to the library, and tell Twilight I'm sorry for yelling at her."I said. "Ok see ya." dash said as I left. I took the train back to ponyville and headed for the library spike heard me knock and opened the door. I had been there only a few minutes before a huge flash of purple light, they had come by teleportation. I should ask twilight if she could teach me that. "Thunder what is it?" twilight asked. "First, Twilight I am sorry for yelling at you, Second your theory about discord is correct." I said. "It's ok Thunder we all know you like Luna." Twi said. "Hey how'd you know." I said to Twi. "Rainbow told us.". "Rainbow why did you tell them." I said. "Ok back to the problem at hand, Thunder you think that Discord has possessed Luna?" Twilight asked. "Yes.". "But how do you know?" twilight asked me. " I know because of what she said during our conversation, she said that she didn't want people treating her like she was bad because of her past of being Nightmare moon." I answered. "Ok, if that is so then we need to go the everfree forest now." Twilight said. "Why the rush Twi?"I asked. "The thing with that theory is that the host's mind slowly deteriorates until it is gone." Twilight said. I thought to my self 'Discord why, why would you do this.'. We made our way to the everfree forest as fast as we could, we found the two guards there was a medic near. We asked him which way they said Luna was headed, he said that she was headed for the castle ruins. We quickened our pace as the sun set. We finally made it to the castle, we all went inside. "Everypony be ready." twilight said as she gave everypony there elements. "Oh look who's here to spoil my plans, if it isn't the elements of harmony, oh and who's this, ah this must be thunderdash the human gone pony how fun." the shadowy figure said. "So discord what brings you back from your statue." I said. "How did you guess I thought you wouldn't recognize me." discord said. "And why would that be , oh that's right you took over Luna's mind I forgot." I said. "Right again, but I bet you didn't expect this.". He or rather she moved out from the shadows, Twilights theory was right discord had taken over Luna's mind, what stood in front of us was a divide between Nightmare moon and Discord. //-------------------------------------------------------// Nightmares End //-------------------------------------------------------// Nightmares End Chapter 6: nightmares end "Discord why are you doing this?" twilight asked. "Because I want to destroy you so that I can rule without your interference, so that you can't get in my way." Discord said. "You want to get us out of your way, then why did you possess Luna." Twilight said. "Because no one else was available, and you encased me in stone." he said. Hold on why would discord want to kill us, I thought he wanted...... It couldn't be him " Taurquin." I said. "How did you know." he said. "Simple discord would have wanted disharmony between us, you on the other hand are bent on world conquest." I said. "Your right I it is me, but how do you expect to stop me when I control your, let's just say special pony friend." Taurquin said. "Why did you follow me to place, is it so that you can bug me again." I said. " Ah yes the tragic end of maverick, you know your friend mourned over you, and she was going to say that I was the one that pushed you to the point of which you couldn't take it, so I had to do what was necessary." he said. "You....... You didn't." I said. "Yes, I killed her she was so annoying she went on and on about how you were innocent, just because you liked ponies didn't mean you were bad, but I would always remember back to how you wished to come to this place heck you called that rainbow pony your sister." he said. "You monster." I said. "You take over a pony I care about, you kill a person who's close to me, and now you want to kill my friends just because of me." I said. "Why yes of course I will, I despise you and want you to be miserable so yes I don't care who I kill as long as there close to you." he said. That was it I couldn't take it he followed me to this world and now wants to make me miserable again. "Twilight take everypony out of here, I don't want any of you to get hurt." I said. "Thunder we won't leave." she said. "I need you to go, I don't want any one to get hurt because of me." I said. "Ok thunder be careful." Twi said. They all left except for rainbow. "Rainbow you need to leave." I said. "You never told me that you thought of me as a sister." she said. "It never came up." I said. " But you need to go.". "Ok good luck." she said. "So touching maverick made a friend." Taurquin said. "You, your so sad you actually think that I'm not going to hurt them.". "You leave them out of this, this here is between you and me not them." I said. " Well then go ahead kill me, oh that right what ever you do to me hurts Luna.". Suddenly his voice changed and he fell to the ground. "Th-Thunder?" Luna said. "Luna your alive." I said. "You need to stop him he is going to destroy equestria with my power."Luna said. "But I don't want to hurt you." I said. "I would rather see my body destroyed then in the hands of this creep." she said. "Ok." I said. "Touching, she is ready to sacrifice herself for the destruction of me ha.". There was a split second between his last word and the flash of light and heat that hit him. I had just fired a fire spell at him, I didn't even know how I did it thou. "Ok so that's how you want to play then." he fired a single beam of dark energy. Suddenly every thing slowed not unlike the matrix, but I could still move at full speed. It was like I was moving faster then him. I focued on him or should I say a few different points on him and fired five individual balls of fire hit him were I had wanted them to when the smoke cleared he was on the ground. "You gonna finish me now, or are you to weak to finish me." he said. I stepped back "Good buy Taurquin." I fired a final blast of flames. When the smoke cleared his lifeless body lay motionless, it began to change. In a flash of blinding light Luna's body lay there. The sight I saw almost made me cry right there, her horn was cracked, her mane and tail were singed, and there was a lage burn on her side. "Luna...... what have I done." //-------------------------------------------------------// to a world forgotten //-------------------------------------------------------// to a world forgotten It had been three days since the incident, I could still see the horrid image of her mangled body in my head. I could feel the same emotions that I had back when I was bullied, I didn't want to end my life here as well. "Thunder!" I heard a voice say behind me. It was Rainbowdash "What ya doin?" she asked. "Nothing." I said trying to look cheerful. "Are you sure your OK?" she said. "Ya I'm fine I just need some time alone." I said. "Well OK then." she left. ―――――------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "I'm worried about him Twilight." Rainbow said. "I know Rainbow, but he needs his......". "No Twilight he does bot need his space he is unhappy haven't you seen?!" rainbow said. "Dash I don't know what to do, what if he is thinking about ending his life because of what he did." Twilight said. "Twilight we can't just sit by." Rainbow said "I know but he dosen't want help." twilight said. "You should go talk to him twilight." rainbow said. "We both need to go see him dash.". "thunder." this was the second time I had heard that today. "Twilight I need you to do something for me." I said. "Thunder what is it........ Rainbow get a doctor." Twilight said a look of shock on her face. "What's wrong.... Oh There's a really sharp stick pointing out of my chest." I passed out. //-------------------------------------------------------// your ALIVE!? //-------------------------------------------------------// your ALIVE!? Chapter 8: Your ALIVE! When my eyes opened the room was dim and every thing was fuzzy I could make out only lights and shadows. "Wah were am I." I said. " He's awake." I heard a familiar voice say.. " Twilight am I dead?". "Thunder your still here." She said. "Were am I?" I asked her. "Your at the hospital." she replied. "W..were is Luna.". " She's beside you.". "You mean she's ok." I said. "She's fine thunder, she's actually here to see you." twilight said. Luna walked in "Hello twilight sparkle." she said. She looked over to me "Thank you for what you did Thunderdash, now could everypony please step outside I have something I wish to speak to thunderdash about." when everypony left the look on her face turned to a look of worry. "Why, Why did you do this?" she asked. "I was disturbed by what I saw when you changed back, I thought that I killed you." I said. "Thunder it takes more then a fire spell it mortally wound me, I was in bad shape but not to the point of which I could die." she said. "But still I hurt you." I said. "You hurt that Taurquin more then you hurt me." she said. "I have to go you probably want to talk to your friends more." she said. After she said goodbye she left, a few seconds after twilight and her friends came back in. "What did she say." twilight asked. I was in a bit of a daze 'she was alive', that was all that he could think about. "Thunderdash are you ok?" twilight said. "Ya i'm fine." I said. "So what did you talk about then dear?" asked rarity. That was probably the first time she ever talked to me. "We talked about...... her experience of being possessed." I said. "Ok well we should go, I for one have to get up tomorrow for some practice." rainbow said. "ya we should all be goin soon." Applejack said. After we said our  goodnights they all left except for twilight. "Thunder we need to talk." she said. "Ok did I do something wrong?" I asked. "No you didn't do anything wrong, I just need to ask you about what happened under the tree." she said. "Twilight if your wondering about that I don't know." I said. "Ok but did you know you stabbed yourself." she asked. "No I didnt know until when you came to see me." I said. "Ok well goodnight." she said. "Goodnight twilight." I said as she left out the door. Luna was alive, I felt so much better knowing that my spells didn't hurt her. I fell asleep almost right away the last thing I saw  before I closed my eyes was the moon, Luna's moon. //-------------------------------------------------------// part 2 Lessons in Dimensional Travel //-------------------------------------------------------// Part2 prologue 2 prologue To say that I hadn't missed my parents would be a lie, but the way my life is now is better then when I was human. It has been about a month since I came here. I have been taking magic lessons from twilight, she's not a bad teacher when it comes to teaching someone else what she has learned. Majority of the time I sit under a tree at the far edge of sweet apple acres or on a cloud near the edge of canterlot. I have moved from staying with twilight to being in canterlot castle, rarity just about fainted when I told her. I kinda wanted to move to canterlot so that I could be with Luna more without having a huge uproar in ponyville about her visiting. It took Celestia a little while to get over me being there, but she's ok with it now. //-------------------------------------------------------// 2 RAGE //-------------------------------------------------------// 2 LOVE 2chapter 3: love "Thunder who is she ?" dash asked. "I don't have any ideas beside that she could be the person Taurquin murdered." I said. "ugh."the pony in the bed said. "Were am I?", she asked. "You are safe." I said. "Am... Am I dead." she asked. "No but you need to rest you are wonded." I said. "o-OK" she said. We left the room. "Thunder who is she?" Twi asked. "I don't know yet twilight." I said. Then it hit me " rainbow can you and Luna come with me to the archives?" I said. "OK, but why?" rainbow asked. "I have an idea." I said. "Why am I coming?" asked Luna. "I have something I want to talk to you about." I said. We made it to the archives "OK where is the weather report section?" I asked. "What day do you need." rainbow said. Of course she knew were to find it she was a weather mare. "Could I see the weather from three days before you found me, and three days before today?" I asked. "Three days... Got it, three days before your I found you, it says that there was a storm that covered ponyville, the everfree forest, canterlot, and the crystal empire and surrounding northern region." dash said. "Now three days before today please." i said. "There was a similar storm but it only covered canterlot and ponyville." dash said. "Two storms each before our arrival could they be linked?" I asked. "It is hard to tell, during my life time I have never seen such a storm." Luna said. "Dash could you bring our findings to twilight and Celestia please." I said. "I'm on it!" dash replied. "Luna could I talk to you?" I asked. "certainly thunderdash what is it you want to speak about?" Luna asked. "I was wondering if you wanted to have dinner some time?" I said. There was a few moments of silence before she said. "Thunder if you want to go out with me you should just ask." Luna said slightly blushing. "OK Luna will you go out with me?" I asked. "Yes, I  will go out with you." Luna said. "So were do you want to go?" I asked. "We could eat here or we could eat a a great restaurant in downtown canterlot." Luna said. "Which do you prefer?" I asked. "I think we should go to the restaurant over eating here." she said. "Then the restaurant it is, what time do you want to meet?" I said. "I think that any time after 5 or 6 is fine." she said. "OK see you at 5:30 then." I said. "I will see you later then thunder." Luna said. "We should probably head back to the others, I have to tell them my theory if rainbow hasn't already." I said. "Yes my sister is probably worried because we haven't gone back yet." Luna said. "Let's head back up then." I said. We headed back up two the main floor to find Celestia and twilight talking about something and dash sleeping on one of the couches in the room. "Your back, what did you find?" Celestia asked. "Your highness we have found that 3 days before both of our arrivals there was a storm, a larger one before I came but a smaller one when Flare Danser came." I said. Dash suddenly woke up "Wha did I miss is somethin gonna happen dat is bad." she said fast and heavily slurred. "Dash you can go back to sleep there is nothing bad that will happen." I said to her. Dash yawned and immediately fell back to sleep. "Yes the storms are no coincidence, but what does this have to do with her." Celestia asked. "Because the same type of storm happen before my arrival and before hers she is odiously human which also confirms that she is in fact the person that Taurquin had killed." I said. "So then what is her name ?" Celestia asked. "Her human name was Sarah but her name now is Flare Danser." I said. //-------------------------------------------------------// Part2 prologue //-------------------------------------------------------// 2 RAGE 2chapter 4: After that we all went our separate ways, I returned to my room and slept for a wile considering I had been up since 5 in the morning. It felt like I had just gotten to sleep when the clock beside my bed went off and I had to get up, I had set it to go off an hour after I went to sleep. I headed over to my desk and opened up one of the books Twilight had lent me " advanced magic vol. II" I had spent a lot of time reading this book since she had given me it. Just then I heard a knock at the door. "You can come in it's open." I said. I turned around to see Celestia enter the room. "Why have you come to see me ?" I asked. "I just wanted to update you on Flare Dansers recovery progress." she said. "How is she?" I asked. "She is fine, she should be able to walk in about 3 hours. " Celestia replied. I looked over at the time it was 4:50 I had dinner with Luna at 5:30 and I had no idea were the restaurant was! "Celestia I must leave now I have something I must attend to." I said not revealing what the something was. "Ok I will see you later the Thunder." she said. "See ya." I said as I left the room. "Luna I had no idea the food at that restaurant was that good." I said. We had arrived at the restaurant after I had gone to her room in a panic not knowing were the restaurant was actually located. We left shortly after that incident and ate dinner wile we taked about stuff. We were heading up the steps of the castle when I realized something where were all of the guards. We ran up the steps only to find that all of the guards were standing in front of the entrance to Flare Dansers room. "What happened ?" I asked. "She began to attack us and tell us that we were trying to hurt her and she demanded to know were she was and what we had done to her." the guard said. "I wish to speak to her." I said. "OK but she may attack you." the guard said. "Luna stay here and tell the guards to move away from the door." I said. "OK." Luna replied. I entered the dark room to find Flare Danser fiddling with her mane and looking at her body in almost a horrified way. "Sarah its me Maverick, I ....." she cut me off before I could finish. "YOUR NOT MAVERICK HE DIED, and WHAT THE HELL DID YOU DO TO ME!?"  she asked. "Sarah listen it's hard to explain you see you have died and are now ......." she cut me off again. "SO THIS IS HEAVEN AND WHO ARE YOU THEN, BECAUSE YOU DON'T LOOK LIKE MAVERICK SO STOP LYING TO ME, YOU EXPERIMENTED ON ME AND NOW YOU TURNED ME INTO THIS." she said getting more anger. "Sarah your name is Flare Danser you have to beleve me." I said as I moved closer to her, that must have been all she needed because she jumped up kicked me and ran out the door burning a trail behind her as she went. By the time I had gotten out side she was gone. "Well she's gone." I said. "Ya we saw her burn out part of the floor on her way out the door." one of the guards said. "Should I call more guards?" the guard captain asked. "No there would be no point she would just keep running." I said. "But Thunder she could destroy ponyville if she wanted to." Luna said. "She wouldn't harm anypony I know that she's just confused." I said. "Ok then what should we do?" asked one of the guards. "Inform Celestia of this and then return to your chambers." Luna said. The guards left and we were alone looking out of the window into the night sky. "Why would she run like that?" asked Luna. "I don't really know why to be honest." I said. "That was a wonderful date thought." I added. "Yes it was." Luna said "Yes it was." I said. After that i returned to my room to contemplate the actions of Flare Danser. "Could she have possibly forgotten, or is her mind trying to block out her memory's of that life, i would imagine that Taurquin probably did something horrific to her before slaughtering her." i said to myself as i got ready for bed. I was going to read but because of the events of tonight and the time i decided it was best just to go to bed. //-------------------------------------------------------// Part3A The awakening //-------------------------------------------------------// Part3A The awakening A3chapter 1: The awakening This is all confusing were am I and who was that, why do I look like something out of a cartoon. These were all questions I had to ask myself. "Although that was some amazing flying, having wings really is this awesome." I said. "But what I wanna know is how I got them and why is it that when I try to close my eyes I see him killing me, oh why did I ever even sort of trust him." I said. "I feel bad about what I said to that nice whatever he was a horse a pony I don't know, he reminded me of maverick but maverick is dead and I can't keep thinking he is not." I said. "I should start looking for some were to sleep I'm getting tired and sleeping out in the open is never a good idea." I said. There was what looked like a forest not far from here I headed in that direction. Not far into the forest there was a hut I knocked on the door. "Come in my child." a voice from behind the door said. The inside of the hut was decorated in masks and various other items that made it look like what would be considered a shamans hut. "Who might you be we are not acquainted, tell me your name so your picture is painted." the zebra sitting one the floor in front of a desk said. "My name is......." I had to think for a moment, that horse that I originally saw said that my name was Flare Danser but he also called me by my actual name which was Sarah. " Yes my child?" she said. "My name is Flare Danser." I said. "Your name is Flare Danser I see how intriguing, my name is Zecora and I give you good greetings." Zecora said. "Zecora I know this may sound weird but may I stay here for the night?" I asked. "Of course you can my child." she said. Zecora gave me a bed and asked for nothing in return. I woke up the next morning and left it was day now and I continued on through the forest towards the mountain. I walked for hours until i got to a small pound, I needed water so I drank. After a few minutes I stopped and admired my new form. I was red with an orange mane and tail and there was a mark on my upper part of my hind leg. It was a blue flame. Something was familiar about this but I could not remember why it was familiar, I could only remember the horrifying images of being murdered and a bit about who I was and who people I knew were but beyond that my vision was blurred, the only images that were remotely clear were Maverick and Taurquin. I continued on my way until late afternoon. I had no idea what happened but suddenly there was a field of apple trees, just apple trees. I walked further and saw a house. I walked even closer and saw someone out side looking up at the stars. They looked this direction "hey! What are y'all doin in the apple trees." asked the pony that was now running towards me. She reached me " Who are you and what are you doin in our apple field.... You don't look to good." she said. I looked around me she was right I was filthy and I was dead tired and hungry. "Could I stay here for the night?" I asked. "Sure, but first your gonna half to tell me your name." she said. "My name is Flare Danser." I said. "Nice ta meet y'all Flare Danser, my names Applejack." Applejack said. //-------------------------------------------------------// B3 Travelling //-------------------------------------------------------// A3 Still nothin A3chapter 3: Still nothin The first idea they had planed was to get there cutie marks in applebucking. "Applebloom how do you even do this everyday it's hard." Sweetiebell said. "Just keep trying kick back as hard as you can." Applebloom said having difficulty with her own tree as well. "Guys I got it." Scootaloo said as apples started to fall into the basket. After a little wile they all got it. "Did we get our cutie marks?" Applebloom said. They all turned to look at were they would be but there was nothing there. The looks of disappointment disappeared just about as fast as they had appeared. "OK so what are we gonna try next?" Applebloom asked. "What about being inventors." Scootaloo said. "Ya cutie Mark crusaders inventor." Applebloom said. We headed towards there tree house. "Paper, pencils good were set." sweetie belle said. They sat around discussing for a little wile. By lunch time they had drawn on about 20 papers and about 40 others littered the floor in rolled up balls. They kept drawing until it became dark outside. "Well I should be going home Rarity should be there soon." Sweetie bell said. "The day sure fly's by."said Scootaloo. "See ya Applebloom." they both said in unison as they left out the door. "So what do we do now?" I asked. "Well Applejack should be returning soon." Applebloom said. "We should probably clean up the tree house though." she said. We cleaned up the tree house and removed all of the paper that was rolled up on the floor, the ones that were worth keeping Applebloom put into a container. We headed back to the farm house and had something to eat. Applebloom had some kind of apple bread and I had more apple pie (I could eat this every day of my life forever its that good). After we cleaned up there was a knock at the door. "Who is it?" Applebloom asked. "It's me open up." the voice from behind the door was Applejack's. "How was your trip?" I asked after she had come inside. "It was great to be there again to see my other friends." Applejack said. "Did you bring me somethin?" Asked Applebloom. "Yes I did, I brought you this." Applejack pulled out of her saddle bags a bronze apple on a stand. "What is it?" Asked Applebloom. "It's a present from." she whispered the rest into Applebloom's ear. After that Applebloom went upstairs. "Applejack who is the stallion who lives in the castle?" I asked. "You mean Thunderdash." She said. "Yes him who is he?" I asked. "Well he is an alicorn who was a human."she said. Why does that word sound so familiar and why is it like I have heard that name before. "I am going to see him tomorrow." I said. "Do you want me to go with you?" Applejack asked. "No I should be fine." I said. "Alright I'm off to bed goodnight Flare Danser." Applejack said. "Goodnight Applejack." I said. I sat there for some time after that conversation and contemplated what I had heard about Thunderdash. I eventually headed upstairs and to bed. "When I get up tomorrow I am going to go back to the castle and ask him about who I am." I said to myself as I drifted off to sleep. //-------------------------------------------------------// A3 Friends //-------------------------------------------------------// Part B3 Just Another Day B3chapter 1: just another day I woke up early that morning the previous night was that first date I had ever had in my entire life and I was going to cherish it. I headed down stairs after getting up and fixing my mane. "Thunder." i heard from behind me, it was Celestia. "Twilight asked me to tell you that she has a lesson planed for today." she said. "OK I'll head there right now see ya." I said. I headed out towards ponyville through an open window. As I neared twilights I noticed that Rainbowdash was out on the balcony looking in my direction as soon as she recognized me she flew up to meet me as I descended down to land on the balcony. "What brings you here dash?" I asked. "I thought you knew." dash said. "No, what is it?" I said. "Well everyponys here Applejack, Fluttershy, Rarity, and Pinkie pie." she said. "Why though, according to Celestia Twilight said that she had a lesson for me since there wasn't one yesterday." I said. "I don't actually know, Twi said that we would like it." dash said. "OK lets go in and see." I said. We entered from the balcony doors and down the steps to the main library. "Ah Thunderdash your here OK everypony I can now tell everypony what we are going to do." Twilight said. "Tomorrow we are going to meet in the library and  Celestia is going to transport us to the world were we met  Duskshine and the others." she said. Everypony was shocked into amazement. "Now I can finally spend more time with Elusive." Rarity said. "I can see Butterscotch again." said  Fluttershy. "Yes everypony can see them again, OK now Thunderdash Celestia doesn't know if there is a version of you in that world you don't have to go if you don't want to." Twi said. "I will go with you I have been wanting to meet Duskshine and the others ever since I had heard about them." I said. "OK it's settled Tomorrow we meet back here and wait for Celestia to arrive." Twilight said. I returned to the castle after a short race to dashes house to eat breakfast, I had forgotten to eat. After that I headed back to the castle, or to be more presses the tower in which Luna's room was. I slid in through the window she was at her desk working when I got in. I snuck up behind her, but just before I could reach her I was lifted up and put on the bed by magic. Luna then turned around and said. "How is it going Thunder." odiously I couldn't sneak up behind her. "When did you hear me come in?" I asked. "Just before you came in through the window I saw your shadow on the wall." she said. It wasn't even stealth it was a shadow that gave me away ugh. "But other than that and the fact that I heard you breathing you could have successfully snuck up on somepony." Luna said. "Why have you come here any way?" she asked. "I wanted to see how you were and I may not see you for a few days so I just wanted to ask if tonight we could go out again?" I said. "Yeah, now do you want to go to the same place or different?"asked Luna. "It's all up to what you want." I said. "OK let's go back to the same one." Luna said. "OK, same time?" I asked. "Yes 5:30." she said. "OK see ya then, I have to go study now so bye." I said. "See ya Thunder." she said. The truth was that when I was in high school I barely ever studied, but now I actually feel like studying and reading, but flying with dash is still better. I went up to my room and open were I had left off on the Daring Do book Twi had lent me. I had read it for a little wile, but then I felt like I needed to fly so I went to see dash. "Hey dash open up it's me." I said standing in front of the door to her amazing house. "Hey Thunder what brings you up here?" dash asked. "Just wanted to know if your up for some flying?" I asked. "I'm always up for flying." she said. "Race you from here to manehatten and back." I said. "Here to manehatten OK." she said. "How long could this race be?" I asked. "Maybe 15-20 minutes." said dash. "Let's go 3....2......1.......go!" I said. We launched off of  Rainbowdash's front porch in the direction of manehatten. Part way there when I got close to her I said that we had to reach the western sea before we could turn around. We kept on flying at breakneck speeds, eventually in the distance we could see manehatten and the western sea. Dash got to the sea just before I did and headed back even faster. By the time we had gotten within view of dash's house I was just ahead of her. I beat her by about 0.5 of a second. "Phew your definitely getting better." said dash. "Thanks you still dodged that lighting Strike better then I did." I said. "Ya you ok?" dash asked. "Ya, what time is it?" I asked. "It's 5 o'clock." dash said after going inside to see the clock. "I have to go Luna wants me to help her with something, see ya." I said. "Bye thunder." she said. I flew back as fast as I could, I reached my room at 5:10 and got cleaned up. I met Luna and we headed off to the restaurant. "That was wonderful Thunder." said Luna. "Thanks, but your the one who chose it." I said. "Yes I did but you suggested that we go out again." Luna said. "Yes, I can't believe I won't see you for a few days." I said. "I can't either." she said. We headed back to the castle and said good night. I went right to sleep as Twilight had said we needed to be there early in the morning. //-------------------------------------------------------// A3 Still nothin //-------------------------------------------------------// B3 Travelling B3chapter 2: traveling I woke in the morning to find that I was late and Twilight would probably be really mad with me. By the time I got there everypony had already been there for about 2 minutes. "I am so sorry Twilight I lost track of time." I said. "It's alright thunder Celestia isn't here yet and your not that late." she said. Celestia arrived shortly after that conversation had occured. " is everypony ready to go?" she asked. "yes." we all said. Celestia's horn started to glow, within seconds the room around us began to morph and change. A flash of light blinded us, I could here everypony for only a few seconds then there was absolute silence. In a few seconds my eyes opened, we were in a field. I slowly sat up and looked around, everypony was there but the landing was a bit messy. "Sorry about that everypony this spell is a bit rusty I haven't used it in a long time." she said. "there is no need to apologies we got her OK and that's the important thing." I said. "Exactly, we should head over into town." Celestia said. Just then a ball of glowing light gently glided down from the sky. Out from the light came who I guessed to be Solaris and Artemis , but there was another who was, no it cannot be it was me except I was a mare. "Welcome Celestia, hopefully the travel here wasn't rough." The one who I guessed to be Solaris said. "It is nice to see you face to face again Solaris." Celestia said. "I have someone who you should met, Thunderdash come over here please." she said. "Solaris this is Thunderdash, he was a......" she was cut off by Solaris. "Ah so your the stallion version of the mare that has won Artemis' heart, Thunderdash I would like you to meet Dancing Thunder." he said. If I were not already in love with Luna I would have probably asked her out, but if I had a choice I would still stick with Luna. Everypony began chatting, Rainbowblitz and Rainbowdash almost immediately shot into the air and began racing. Dancing thunder came over to me and asked in a quiet voice if I might race her. I said yes and her face lit up and she talked a lot louder and more like a tomboy. "You ready to eat my dust dash." she said. "The question is are you ready to eat mine." I replied. We flew around a few clouds and then Rainbow dash and blitz saw what we were doing and joined in. She was definitely faster going straight but when it came to turns I was much quicker, I guess blitz taught her and dash taught me so it may make a bit of a difference. I realized the the teacher must have been the case when I saw blitz doing the same things a Dance was. We kept flying until we were to tired to even land properly. That was probably the first time I had ever crashed on a landing. "Your pretty good for a newbie." Dance said. "Hey I'm not a newbie I have had a lot of flight time." I said. We made our way slowly to The train station so that we could get back to canterlot. We had a set of guest rooms designated for our stay, we were going to be here for one more night after this one, and I wanted to get up early the next morning. //-------------------------------------------------------// Part4 The Return //-------------------------------------------------------// B3 the lessons we learn B3Chapter 3: the lessons we learn. I woke up to a ray of light blinding my eyes "Ah my god I can't see." I said as I slowly sat up. That was better now the light wasn't in my eyes. "RISE AND SHINE EVERYPONY!!!!!!" said a voice coming from the now open door. It was Dancing Thunder, dash was sleeping in the bed beside me and was laying face first into the pillow with her wings sticking straight up. "Dash wake up." I said. "Huh what was goin on." she said kind of slurring her words. "Dash your wings." I pointed at them. She immediately shot straight up into the air and fell back down onto her bed. "Did anypony see?" she asked frantically looking around. "Besides me and possibly Dancing thunder no.". "Phew good, that would have been humiliating." dash said. "Give me five more minutes." said pinkie pie still half  sleeping. "Oh what time is it." said Fluttershy as she was hiding under the covers from the yelling. "I need my beauty sleep." rarity said wile she was face first into the pillow. "Can't here ya am asleep." applejack said. Twilight of course was up at the same time dance came into the room. "Come on it's already 9:00 and you guys are leaving tonight. "Wha." almost everyone except Celestia sat up and said in unison. Celestia was still sleeping wile we were getting up to go and do what we aware going to do for the day. "Alright so what do ya want to do first." dance asked me. "I actually don't know what we should do." I said. "Alright then, let's just go see Dusk Shine." she said. We took off and headed for ponyville, everything was a race with her, even just getting towards the library she tried to get ahead of me whenever possible. When she was ahead she blocked me from passing. "What's the deal this isn't a race?" I said. "Everything is a race." she said. "But this dose not count towards the race later." I said. "Your on!" she said. We arrived at Dusk Shines house a fee moments after we landed. Twilight was there already and they were sharing story's about each others lessons. "Ah Dance how are you doing?" Dusk shine said. "I'm doin fine, this here is Thunderdash." she said pointing towards me. "Hello thunder nice to finally meet you, Twilight has said some things about you." Dusk Shine said. "Good things I hope." dance said as she nudged me with her fore leg. "Yes I told him about how you saved princess Luna and how you are going out with her." twilight said. "How did you know, I thought I kept it a secret is it really that obvious." I said slightly embarrassed by it. "Ya it's kinda obvious, not that it's a bad thing." she said. As the conversation progressed dance's mood changed from wanting to race to wanting to be quiet and not in the conversation. She slowly moved away from us. I walked over to her. "What's wrong?"I said. "you should have told me about Luna." she said. "I never thought I needed to." I said. "Well I have feelings for you and I didn't know whether or no to act upon them." she said. "I just assumed because you are in love with Artemis that you wouldn't have feelings for me." I said. "Oh well that is behind us now so you wanna race." she said. She had returned fully to her usual competitive attitude by the time we were out side of the library. As we raced I thought about the conversation and how she put it behind her so easily. Thinking about how she put it behind her so easily caused me to lose focus and I lost by just 1 second. "I beat you that means you have to buy me lunch." Dance said. "Alright alright I will." I said, it had been the deal that if I win she has to buy lunch but if she wins I have to buy her lunch. We ate at one of the main restaurants, she ordered pizza, I didn't even know they had pizza here. We ate it as it was to big of a pizza for her alone to eat it. We left after I had paid, we headed towards a park were we had discussed the day before with blitz and dash that we would meet them here. "What took you guys so long." said Blitz. "We had a deal that if I beat him in a sprint race he would buy me lunch." Dance said. "So how do we want to race?" asked Dash. "How about me and blitz versus you and thunder." Dance said. "Let's do this." I said. We flew up to the starting point. "Dash where is Rarity, Fluttershy, Pinkiepie, and Applejack?" I asked her on the way up to the starting point. "I haven't seen them since this morning." she said. "3.......2........1." Dance paused for what felt like forever. "GO!!!" She finally said. The pause must have been to make it so that she had time to get more of a build up for her start because she shot off twice as fast as anyone else had. The goal of this race was to head from were we started to Blitz's house around his house, then over canterlot, and back to were we started, we had to do this twice, last person across the finish line had to buy everypony dinner later. We completed the first lap and Dance was in the lead still followed by me then Dash and finally Blitz. The race was coming to a close and just before the finish I tripped over, I actually don't know what I tripped over, but I lost only by a split second though. When we headed back towards the park we had decided that we would go and see what everypony else was up to. When we couldn't find any of them we headed for canterlot. It turned out that everypony was already there. "Were have you guys been?"Twilight asked. "Just racing." I said. "We didn't know there was a specific time to meet." dash said. "Everypony we will be leaving in 45 minutes." Celestia said. "We have 45 minutes left, what should we do?" Asked Dance. "We could just hang out and talk." I said. "alright let's do that." dance said. "You guys coming?" I asked dash and blitz. "Nah we'll stay here and talk." blitz said. We went out side and sat down across from each other. "So what did you think of our race." Dance said. "Well it was good, except for they epic tripping fail." I said. "How did you trip?" she asked. "I have no idea." I said. We continued to talk about all of the things that we did not talk about. Within a what felt like a few moments twilight came out and said "It's time to go.". We stood up and walked inside. "Remember you still owe me dinner for that race." dance said. "How could I forget." I said. There figures began to distort as I waved goodbye. Like before everything went black, we woke up this time in a group were we had left from the day before. "Did everypony make it.". I looked around after I said it to make sure everypony was intact there, from what I could see we all made it back, Celestia was partially asleep and kind of dazed from the travel. "Well the landing was better then the last time I did this." Celestia said. "It was good to see them again." Twilight said. "Yes it was lovely to see Elusive again." rarity said. We all chatted for a while about our different experiences. "Well i'm off to my house, I have to get something ready for my practice tomorrow." dash said. "Ya I should get goin to Applebloom's probably worried about me." said Applejack. "I should go to see you guys tomorrow." I said. I walked off to an area were I could take off from and flew towards canterlot. I took it slow at first I hadn't flown slowly in a while so it felt foreign to be flying so slowly. The slow flying that I had been doing was short lived as I thought about something I hadn't thought about for a while Luna my speed slowly increased as I headed for the castle. I landed at the front gate and the guards let me through, since it was later in the day I didn't want them to have to wake up everypony in the castle on there way up to see who had come in. I went up to my room and looked at the time, it was 8:30 in the evening. It was probably better to talk to Luna in the morning. So I went to sleep. //-------------------------------------------------------// 4 Unexpected arrival //-------------------------------------------------------// Part4 The Return 4chapter 1: the return It was the morning after we had gotten back two our own dimension and I had just gotten up. "I miss being with Dance a bit but my bed feels soooo much better then the ones we had when we were there." I said. I got up and got cleaned up before going down stairs to see what was happening today in terms of political things. Ever since I got equestrian politics was some what of an interest to me. "Good morning Luna, good morning Celestia, what is happening today......" my voice trailed off as I saw what had obviously made them stop. In front of Celestia, Luna and now me were two dead guards, one from the day guard, and one from the night guard, both had spears through there heads with what looked like scrolls attached. With the permission of Celestia I picked up one of the two scrolls and read it aloud. To, Celestia, Luna, and Thunderdash. As you can obviously see i have killed two of your guards one of the day and one of the night. I am not dead i managed to escape just before thunderdash tried to finish me off. I will come in two weeks time to take over you worthless world and kill all of you. The only way you can stop me is by giving me Celestia and Luna along with your self Thunderdash, or you can try to defend against me. You have two weeks to decide. From, Taurquin. "Thunderdash is that all?" asked Celestia. "That's everything." I said. "I will give my self up to Taurquin if that means saving my people." Celestia said. "Celestia with all do respect there is no way of knowing what he shall do if he does get you." I said. "Sister it is not that wise to trust everything he says, his mind is filled with lies." Luna said. "What do you propose then Thunderdash?" Celestia asked. "I believe that training for this fight is the best option Celestia." I said. "But how do we train against him?" Celestia asked. "Bring Twilight and her friends here, I have to discuss this with them and tell them what has happened." i said. " I will send a letter to Twilight at once, Luna can you come with me." Celestia said. "Yes my sister." luna said. _________________________________________________________________________________________________ Celestia and Luna went off to the time history section of the archives. "Sister why did you ask me to come with you?" Luna asked. " It is important." Celestia said. They moved to the area of the archives were the most advanced spells were stored. Inside the room were shelves upon shelves covered in scrolls. There were even some objects like the alicorn amulet and the necklace the thunderdash had received. "Luna i need to tell you something." Celestia said. "What is it?" Luna said. "I don't think thunderdash is meant to be an alicorn." she said. "Why?" Luna asked. "Because of this necklace." Celestia said as she pointed to the necklace. "But what does that have to do with Thunderdash not being an alicorn?" Luna asked. "This necklace is not what i thought it was, it is not an element of harmony but a energy seal." Celestia said. "What do you mean energy seal?" Asked Luna looking more confused by the minute. "I mean that this contains thunderdash's energy, therefore as long as its not broken he will have this energy in check." "But what would happen if something shatters it?" Luna asked. "It is hard to say, he could die or he could just become out of control, either way he wouldn't be able to control that power." Celestia said. "But isn't he as strong as you and me?" Luna asked. "No, his powers are limited to that of a unicorn with soso talent." Celestia said. "But what about how he fought Taurquin?" Luna asked. "He is strong but not strong enough to say raise the sun, he would have to break that pendant to do that." Celestia said. "Oh OK." Luna said. The two of them left that room and headed back up stairs to were Thunderdash was explaining to Twilight and her friends the resent events and his plans. //-------------------------------------------------------// B3 the lessons we learn //-------------------------------------------------------// 4 Unexpected arrival 4chapter 2: Unexpected arrival "So he didn't die?" Rainbowdash asked. "No he escaped before i could defeat him." I said. "So why does he want Celestia, Luna, and you?" Twilight asked. "Its hard to tell with Taurquin why he wants us, but he could just be trying to get me to give up and let him kill all of you." i said. "Why dosen't he just come out and fight!?" Asked dash. "Taurquin likes to emotionally destroy his enemy's first, or he might just be buying himself more time to get to his full strength." I said. "But he has been gone for at least a month, shouldn't he have gotten his strength back along time ago?" Twilight asked. "It's hard to say with him as I have said, he could have been training all that time and have gotten stronger." I said. "So what do we do then?" Asked Rarity. "We prepare for what may happen, we have two weeks to get ready for him." I said. Just then the guards out side shifted and began to move to the edge of the balcony that they were posted one. After they had been talking down to somepony they came inside and said that somepony was here to see me. They went out of the door and down the hall. Moments later they returned with somepony. "Flare Danser what are you doing here?" I said. "I have to speak to you." She said. "Twilight you and your friends should go." I said. "OK, when should we come back?" she asked. "I will send you a message." I said. After that Twilight and her friends left leaving me and Flare Danser alone. "What do you wish to talk about." I said. "First who are you?" she asked. "I am Thunderdash." I said. "No I mean the human you." she said. "My name was Maverick Lavern." I said. "Then what was my name?" She asked. "Your name is Sarah." I said. "Don't you remember anything." "I don't remember much from that life, I only remember faces and a horrible memory of some one hurting me but that's all." she said. "Who hurt you?" I asked her. I already had a pretty good guess, but it was just a guess nothing more. As she explained the memory of the incident she began to look scared, worried, and deprived of the strength and strong stance that she had when she came into the room for the first time. As she went on it became more obvious as to who it was. "What was even worse is that the person who hurt me, I think I may have been friends with him at some point." She said. Sarah had been friends with Taurquin before she met me and saw what he did to me. After that they had still been sort of on even ground with each other. I guess he always had an underlying hate for her and how she just left him to be with someone he thought was worthless. "Sarah I think that this will help." I said. During my lessons with twilight she had taught me a spell that transfers memories or reawakens them inside another. I touched my horn to her forehead and told her to focus on what memories she had left from that life. I began the process of showing her the memory's. The process took a few minutes, during that time I felt rage, sadness, anger, loss, absence, and fear from her during the time it took for me to show her what had happened. I removed my horn form her for head and saw a look of sadness upon her face. "Do you understand more of what happened during your life?" I asked. "Yes, I understand what happened." She said. "Who was the person who did it?" I asked. Even though our minds were kind of connected throughout the memory spell I hadn't seen the conclusions she had found, I only felt her emotions. "Taurquin was the one who killed me." She said. "What did he do?" she said. She spoke of many things that Taurquin had done to her, non of which were even things I would have thought he would ever do to anyone. "I am sorry he did those horrible things to you, I shouldn't have done what I did." I said. "You did what you did because it was right for you to do." she said. "I have had a room set up for you, If you'd like you can stay here." i said. "Thank you, I will stay here." she said. She headed up to her room and I went to go find were Celestia was. She was in her study with Luna discussing something but the conversation stopped as soon as knocked on the door. "Come in." Celestia said. "Thunder, how are the plans going?" She asked. "Flare Danser came so I decided to tell everypony to go so that she didn't feel overwhelmed by it." I said. "So I was wondering if you could send a letter to Twilight telling them that they can come back now?" I asked. "I will send as soon as I can." She said. "OK, sorry to disturb you when I knocked on the door." I said. "It is OK." She said. "OK see you later." I said. "See you later." Celestia said. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________ "When are you going to tell him about the necklace sister?" Luna asked. "He dosen't need to know yet." Celestia said. "When will he need to know, or do you even know that?" Luna asked. "To be honest I don't know when he will need it." Celestia said. " I actually hope he never has to use it." "I hope that as well." Luna said. //-------------------------------------------------------// Prologue 1 //-------------------------------------------------------// Prologue 1 The Seventh Element Of Harmony Within the life of many people there is always something that causes the another's life to become a horrifying existence. The 15 year old boy Maverick Lavern is a prime example. He went to school, and enjoyed his time alone. He had a creative mind, and was a well trained musician. His life was good at home, the real bane of his existence was at school. He had many enemies and all of which hated him, with a passion, but he would find the brightness of it all, or at least he used to.  He now led a life in the shadows, bullies picked on him to no end. One of them was named Taurquin, he was a rich kid who had anything he wanted, the teachers would never dyfi him, if they did his parents would have them thrown in jail (or that's what they wanted them to think.).  One day his worst enemy Taurquin came onto the announcements and caused his life to turn for the worst he had ever seen. "Hello every one this is your student body president here to give a special announcement, would Maverick Lavern please stand up in whatever class he is in.". He knew then it was probably not a good reason, he began to shake were he stood, but the shaking was not enough for any one to see. "Students, this thing you see in front of you is a worthless piece of gay trash, he is a brony, he sits in his room and takes pleasure wile watching a show meant for little girls and then he does his thing wile saying." he cleared his throat for his last killing blow. His next words were to gross to repeat. Taurquin ended and the announcements turned off. everyone laughed at him as he left even the teachers could be seen to have either a look of discus or be laughing, he had been a bit of a klutz in school dropping things and messing up on the simplest tasks,the teachers never thought highly of him and it was evident. He walked home and locked himself in his room. He cried for hours, he had enough and couldn't take the pain any more. He contemplated his options before and this time the way of dying seemed to look mighty good to him. He had written a note to his parents saying that he would find a better life in death and that they were not a contributing factor to his depression and the decisions to end his life. He packed his bag with two things a rope and his favorite picture of him as a pony. One of the reasons why Maverick had been bullied (besides his last name), was because he was a brony. There were others at school like him, but they hid when he called for help. Maverick had gone to his favorite tree outside the entrance of his school. He had always sat there and read or watched the series he had loved. He wanted to make a statement with his death. He never had thoughts like Taurquin said he had, he had despised those who did. He put up the picture of him as a pony so that the last thing he would see was him as he wished he could be. He then tied his noose, attached it to a branch of the tree and climbed onto a rock. The last words he said were, "I hope your happy Taurquin, I hope your happy.". He jumped and hung by his neck for a few seconds and then nothing, absolutely nothing. Suddenly there was a flash of bright light and a jolt through his spine that made him unaware of the changes that were occurring. Then everything around him shifted and he felt as if he was falling through the night sky. He tried to tilt his head to see but his body wouldn't move regardless of what he did. He hit the ground hard and everything began to grow dark, but just before he went out he could see a cyan blob above him mumbling something...... //-------------------------------------------------------// Thunderdash //-------------------------------------------------------// Thunderdash Chapter 1 thunderdash "Are you ok?" rainbowdash said to the cream colored alicorn lying unconscious on the ground. "I should probably get him to twilight's he, looks pretty bad" rainbowdash said. Moments later   twilight heard a knock at her door "who is it?". "It's me dash open up.". " Dash what are you doing here at this hour?". "You wouldn't beleve me if I told you", "Oh really rainbowdash.". "Really.". "Ok rainbow but I don't even know why you .... WHAT THE HECK". Twilight said as she opened the door to see rainbow carrying a pony on her back. "I found him lying in the middle of the everfree forest", rainbow said painfully as she collapsed under the weight of the pony on her back. The pony began to wake up "wah hu were am I", He said. "Your in the library it's OK", twilight reassured him. "But I thought that I was dead", "no you were just unconscious", Twilight said. "Then I guess you saw the rope out in front of the school didn't you", "What rope rainbow found you in the everfree forest", "Wait did you just say everfree forest... WHAT THE HELL why am I cream colored... wait do you have a mirror", "yes I do rainbow can you come with me please", "ok but why...", "rainbow", twilight said impatiently, "OK, OK I'll come help you", "thank you." Twilight and rainbow went up into a room and shut the door. They came out a minute later carrying a mirror. "here you go, the mirror", "thank you". Maverick couldn't believe his eyes he had changed he was a pony and at that he was an alicorn he had become thunderdash, but how was this possible he had just killed himself how could he still be alive. "what's your name ?" said rainbowdash, "My name is thunderdash.". //-------------------------------------------------------// To Party Or Not //-------------------------------------------------------// To Party Or Not Chapter 4 To party or to not. " What the heck was that,", I said, "it's your welcome party silly,",Pinkie said. "What is all this racket about, oh my gosh.. PINKIE PIE!!!!!!", twilight screamed. "Twi relax it's a party and it's for me and I don't deserve this much but I haven't met all your friends yet,", I said trying to calm down Twi. " OK I guess it's OK, but has any one seen spike?"twilight asked. "He went to sugar cube corner to get the cupcakes I had forgotten,", pinkie said "He should be back soon,". "Twilight can you introduce me to your friends?", I asked. " OK well that's apple jack, there's rarity and over there Is Fluttershy,". "OK I wonder when.. wait there is a knock at the door," I said. Twilight went to open it spike was on the other side carrying a stack of boxes when he put them down I could see that he had a worried look on his face, "princess ....... Celestia ......... message for twilight ........ Urgent," spike said stuttering about. "Spike talk slower so we can under stand you," twilight asked. "OK princess Celestia sent you a message saying to come to canterlot and bring thunderdash and that.......," spike began to whisper and I couldn't hear him anymore. "We must go to canterlot the princess said it is urgent,", twilight said. "But the party's not over," pinkie said. "We have to go thought if the princess says it's urgent it's urgent,"twilight said. I was still a bit confused about what was so urgent that she wanted me to come as well. Then it hit me maybe something happened to Luna. By the time we got to canterlot I got to know rarity and applejack but Fluttershy was distant all she said was hi and that's it. When we got there Celestia looked like she had been in tears. When I looked at what she was holding in front of her with magic I understood. " Celestia what happened to her, what happened to Luna.". //-------------------------------------------------------// 2 New Arrival //-------------------------------------------------------// part 2 Lessons in Dimensional Travel 2Chapter 1: lesson in dimensional travel. "Hey Twi whats up?" I asked the unicorn. "Nothing much are you ready to start today's lesson.". "Your not even gonna say hello, Twilight are you OK?.". "Ya I'm fine, shall we get started?". "Yes, what is today's lesson exactly?". She paused a moment before saying dimensional travel. It all became clear why she seemed off. "Twi, I think I know why you seem a bit  preoccupied, is it Dusk Shine." that was probably the first time I had used that name since my coming here, I wasn't sure how she would react so I never used it, until now that is. "How did you know, I have never told you.". "Rainbow mentioned something about it to me.". It was a lie but I did not want her to know that I knew almost every detail of the trip that they had. "Yes, ever since I realized that this was what I was teaching you today I couldn't stop thinking about him.". I could have sworn I saw here cry just a bit. "Maybe teaching me this isn't such a good thing Twi.". "OK, I probably will never see him again so I should just forget.". Wow since when did twilight miss him that much I would have actually expected this from rarity but twilight never it the extent of saying never see him again. "Twilight I'm sure Celestia knows a way to there world.". "Maybe, but I don't want her to know about that.". "I don't know she may already know about it.". Ya I knew that Celestia knew because of that story. "She might but if she doesn't then I'll be in trouble.". "I was wondering...." my sentence got cut off by the sound of spike running down the stairs. " Letter from princess Celestia to you Thunderdash.". I opened the letter and read it aloud. Dear Thunderdash, I need you to come to Canterlot right away bring Twilight with you this is of utmost importance that you come fast. "We need to go, whatever this is it is pretty urgent." Twi said. "Let's go, spike watch the place." I said. "OK." //-------------------------------------------------------// 2 LOVE //-------------------------------------------------------// 2 New Arrival 2Chapter 2: New arrival "I wonder why Celestia is wanting us to come to canterlot, what could be so urgent?" Twi said. "Your guess is as good as mine Twilight." I said. We arrived at canterlot and were escorted by 4 guards up to the castle. "Celestia what do you require of us..." my voice trailed off into nothing as she came out of a door with a look of despair. "Thunder you and Twilight need to see this." she said. I saw rainbow sitting on a chair. "Rainbow what are you doing here...." her face looked exactly the same as Celestia's. "You need to see what is in that room.". Just then Luna came out of that very same room with that very same look. "Luna what is in that room?" she said. "Like my sister and yours have said you need to see this." she had the same look as both Celestia and rainbow had on there faces. "Alright I will go see what it is.". "No it can't be." ――/――/――/――/――/――/―/――/―― The room was dimly lit and contained a bed. What everypony was concerned with was what lie on the bed. "How is this possible, she shouldn't exist unless." dash had come into the room with us. "Dash were did you find her?". "The same place were I found you but instead of being just unconscious she was burnt and cut all over the place." dash said. "Thunder who is she?" twilight asked. "I don't know exactly." I replied. //-------------------------------------------------------// Part B3 Just Another Day //-------------------------------------------------------// A3 Friends A3chapter 2: Friends "Were y'all from?" Applejack said. "I don't exactly know were I'm from." I said. "Well you should probably get cleaned up." Applejack said. "come on let's go inside.". "OK." I replied. Inside the house was very simple, but still felt warm and friendly. "Let me introduce you Te the apple family, this here is Applebloom, over there is Big Macintosh, and in the chair right there is granny Smith." Applejack said. "Applejack who is with ya?" Applebloom asked. "My name is Flare Danser it is nice to meet you." I said. "Hello Flare Danser are ya staying over night?" She asked. "Yes I am." I said. After that conversation Applejack said that I should eat something, so she brought me into the kitchen and gave me something called apple pie it sounded strangely familiar yet it tasted amazing. We went up stairs after I had finished eating, Applejack said that there was a shower over there and that I would be sleeping on a bed in her room. When I had finished showering I went into her room. Applejack was fast asleep so I went into my bed and closed my eyes. After a few minutes I began to see the same visions of someone killing me but unlike before it was unclear as to who it was, but the vision made me wake up instantly. I fell back to sleep and didn't wake up again till the morning. I went down stairs to see if Applejack was there, but Applebloom was the only pony that was there. "Applebloom were is Applejack?" I asked. "She left an hour ago, applejack said that twilight had planed a trip for them, they were goin some were today." Applebloom said. "oh ok." I said not knowing why she didn't say goodbye. "She tried to say goodbye but you was asleep she didn't want to wake you." Applebloom said. "oh, so what do you do for fun?" I asked. "Well today I'm goin to hang out with my friends Scootaloo and Sweetie Bell, we have a club called the Cutie Mark Crusaders." she said. "What exactly do the cutie Mark crusaders crusade for?" I asked. "We crusade for our cutie marks." said Applebloom. "What are cutie marks?" I asked. "Don't you have one?" she asked. "I don't actually know." I said. "You do it's on your flank, how'd ya get it?" she asked. " I don't know it is new to me." I said. Applebloom looked at me kinda funny. "You can come with me if ya want to?" she asked. I accepted the offer and followed her to a clubhouse were two ponies were waiting. "Scootaloo, Sweetie Bell meet Flare Danser." she said. The two were in a bit of confusion. "When did you meet her Applebloom?" asked Scootaloo. "Last night ma sister found her in the fields, so she gave her a place to stay." Applebloom said. "Nice to meet you my name is Scootaloo and this is Sweetie Bell." Scootaloo said. Sweetie bell looked and me and asked. "How'd you get your cutie Mark?". "To be honest I actually don't know." I replied. "Oh OK." Sweetiebell said. Everyone fell silent at that point until I said. "So what do you guys do all day?". "Well we try to get our cutie marks." Sweetiebell said. "May I hangout with you then." I asked. "Sure you can." Sweetiebell and Scootaloo said. We head off to were they had decided would be a good place to try and get there cutie marks in, Applebucking.
