Chapter 6:Meanwhile at the museum

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

Twilight and I walked in silence to the museum, making sure not to touch anyone. I thought about how we would even be able to get in, let alone get past security. By the time we got there, the museum seemed as though it were a husk of itself during the day. After a couple of minutes of looking around, we found a small vent I was able to fit in.

" Are you sure you want to do this, we could find another way in." Twilight sympathetically.

" If we do that, then we won't have enough time. Do not worry, there aren't any guards, remember." I crawled into the vent and moved forward. I eventually found an opening and moved into the museum proper. After looking for any signs of life, I let Twilight in.

"Where do we go from here, Princess?"

I motioned her forward as I walked towards our goal. Even thought I knew there was nothing inside the museum, I felt as though something was wrong. After walking for a few minutes, we approached the hall of honored heroes. I moved forward, but was stopped by twilight.

" Hold on, we don't know what kind of security they have, let me check." Twilights horn glowed faintly and revealed a large range of symbols on the floor, ceiling, and walls of the room. I was amazed at the security.I looked at Twilight, and she had a small satisfied smirk on her muzzle. " With valuables in almost any museum, they'll have a large amount of security. If a thief even got near the treasures, they would be paralyzed and stuck till morning."

" Then how will we get what we came for?'

" Simple really. What we need to do is focus our magic on each separate rune while I walk towards. It will take all of our concentration, so we'll need to stay focused."

I nodded in agreement, then focused. As Twilight slowly made her way towards the armor, I felt as though someone was watching us. But I couldn't think about that unless I wanted Twilight to be paralyzed. After a couple of minutes of focusing, She was able to make it towards the armor.

"Just hold on for a another minute or so, I've almost got it." Twilight said as she picked up the armor. She noticed that I looked a little nervous. "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine. Lets just get this over with." I said with a nervous tone. I just wanted to get out of the museum.

Twilight slowly made her made way back, but she stopped halfway, cringing in fear.

"I Think we're in trouble." I looked over my shoulder and saw a small group of royal guards standing behind me. But these ones were different. Instead of their normal armor, they wore hooded black armor that had face plates, completely devoid of any markings. "BIG trouble."

"Both of you have been charged with treason, conspiracy of overthrowing Princess Celestia, and attempted cause of civil war. How do you plead?" Before we could even answer them or even do anything in general, they all said in unison one word. "GUILTY!!!"

Each one of their horns started to glow in unison, and directed the energy into a red ball above them. Before I knew what happened, I was on the ground in a daze, phasing in and out of invisibility. Through my confused state, I saw them concentrating another attack. I had no choice but to jump into the same trap Twilight was in. I made a brake for her, but was stopped halfway, completely paralyzed.

"What do know!?" Twilight asked nervously. She could see time was running out for the both of us. Under the pressure of our situation, I blurted out the first thing I thought.

" Concentrate ALL of your magic on me!"

" But that could-"

"Just do IT!!"

Twilight did what she was told both out of fear, and respect. All I remember is feeling immense pain. It felt like I was being torn apart both mentally, and physically. I remember seeing a dark figure through the pain, and it spoke to me.

"All has been foreseen, and shall lead to an end." I asked the figure through the pain "What do you mean?" And the next thing I know, Both Twilight and I are back to normal, and the guards were unconscious. "What happened."

" Y-you absorbed not just my magic, but the magic inside the runes. the force of you releasing it knocked out the guards, and almost me." I looked at her both out of disbelief, and urgencey. " I'm sorry, but right now Tesla needs our help. I'll go and get him at the ball. You should go find a means of transportation and meet us outside."

" But how will I-"

"Just GO!"


"......and you know the rest of the story." Luna looked at Tesla expecting him to be confused. But instead, he let out a relieved sigh. "What is it?"

" That's a relief to hear."

"How is that a relief to hear!" Twilight said angrily.

" From what I heard, if it wasn't for your magic and Lunas split descision, you could have died." She looked at Tesla with a confused expression. "Let me explain. When you concentrated your magic onto Luna, it seems as though you caused her to not just absorb your magic, but absorb the magic from the runes. And as a bonus, it returned you to your normal selves while incapacitating those guards."

" Who were they, anyway, and what was that voice I heard?" Luna curiously asked.

The cart came to a stop at the base of a mountain. From their perspective, the three were ants compared to the mausoleum they just arrived at.

" I'll answer your questions later, but right now, we have some work to do."

"Like what?"

"Why, we're gonna have fun raising the dead."
