Fidget, Dust, and Ahrah rested under the stars. It had been a few weeks since Dust died at the volcano, now he was just Ethereal. He could not harm, or be harmed. Fidget couldn't stop thinking about what Ahrah had said hours ago, "In time to come, we can not stay together." It didn't sound good to Fidget at the thought of her being separated from Dust or Ahrah. She sat up and told Dust she was going to find some Feeble Fruits, as she flew off to find some, she noticed something glowing not that far away from them. She flew over with caution, it could very well be dangerous.
As she got closer, it began to glow brighter. When what was glowing came into view she stopped and hovered. It looked like some sort of portal, it was just a swirling mass that seemed to be filled with stars like the night sky. She didn't think to call Dust and Ahrah as she flew closer. It seemed to have a small gravitational pull, before she could feel how strong, or weak, the pull was the wind suddenly picked up. It was stronger than a breeze or steady blow, it seemed like it was strong enough to uproot trees.
And it did. As Fidget was tossed around a bit, a few trees uprooted. She barely heard Dust call out her name as she was hit with a branch and flew into the portal. One thought went through her head that wouldn't be answered for hours, "Where does this portal lead to!?"
A teal colored pegasus raced through the streets of his home town, Aurora. His mane was a dark blue with lighter blue stripes in it, his eyes were a soft blue. He wore a black cape, though the underneath was cyan. He headed toward the forest, he had seen a bright flash the night before and was going to investigate it. He knew he was going to meet his friends soon, but that could wait. He always wanted to have an adventure away from Aurora, everything was always the same everyday and he got bored easily.
As he raced through the streets, he heard one of his friends call after him, "Teal Streak! Wait!" He ignored them, he was going to find out what the bright light was, and he was finding out now. Teal Streak burst through the gates, no gaurds were there to stop him from entering the forest, he had always wanted to do that. Aurora felt like a prison to him, not a safe haven as the King said. He looked behind him to see if anyone had followed him, an earth pony stood there looking at him as if he was crazy. He was dark gray and his mane and tail were white. His yellow eyes showed his shock as Teal hoped his friends wouldn't follow, the earth pony's name was Steel Sword. His cutiemark was a silver greatsword behind a shield.
Steel turned and ran. Teal knew what he was doing, he was getting their other friend, Moon Light. She was a Unicorn, and shared Teal's desire for adventure. She was a night purple with a mane and tail that were violet, her cutiemark was the moon with bright stars infront of it. She would come along with no problem, but Steel wanted to be one of the gaurds when he was able to, he was the one Teal worried about. He may tell the gaurds.
He turned around and entered the forest. There was no name for the forest. Just... Forest. He liked to call it the Gloom Forest, it always seemed gloomy when viewed from atop the wall. But now he was inside, and it didn't seem gloomy at all as he walked along. He only worried about what Steel was doing.
Getting Moon Light, or telling the gaurds?
Fidget had a horrible pain in her arm, the branch had really stung when it hit her. She flapped her wings and looked around at her surroundings. She was in a bright forest, but she knew she was somewhere else. There were no uprooted trees anywhere. She flew up and sat on branch. She thought about looking for Dust and Ahrah, but they hadn't entered the portal. Had they?
"Teal Streak! Don't be telling us in the end the beam of light was a joke! We could get caught by the gaurds!" It was a male voice, and he sounded upset.
"It's not a joke! I was going home when I saw it!" Another male voice, she guessed he was 'Teal Streak', he seemed to be trying to prove something to the other male.
"You two argueing will be the reason we're caught by the gaurds! Besides, the beam a light could of been something teleporting. Like using a portal or something." A female voice, she seemed annoyied with the other two.
Bushes started rustling in the direction the voices were coming from, she guessed they were coming the the small clearing she was in. As the bushes' braches parted as the owners of the voices arrived to the clearing, Fidget flew farther up into the tree. These poeple could do tests on her or even just kill her for no given reason. If theres one thing she knew, it was that poeple were unpredictable. The first to enter the clearing was a teal colored... Pegasus?
The last thing she expected to see was a Pegasus, Unicorn, or Pony. Yet, here was one of each infront of her, entering the clearing... Speaking. With words... Not neighs. At this point, Fidget was sure she had seen everything.
"Is this where the beam of light was?" The Unicorn was a night purple with a violet mane and tail. She had green eyes.
"I believe so." It was the teal Pegasus, he wore a black cape with a cyan underside. It easily reminded her of Dust. He had a darker blue mane and tail with streaks of lighter blue.
"So now your not even sure it even hit? Teal how are we supposed to find it if you don't even know where it landed!" The dark gray pony with a white mane and tail suddenly started yelling. It startled Fidget and nearly fell off of the branch she was on. She hit another branch with her wing and a piece of fruit began to fall through the branches.
"I only saw it ONCE! If we have to, we'll check the whole forest! So just start looking for any signs of disturbance Steel Sword!" Fidget worried as the fruit tumbled through the branches of the tree.
"Will you two NOT ARGUE for once! Both of you shut up and start-!" Fidget froze as the fruit hit the Unicorn on the head and fell to the ground.
"Well, no one can explain that! The fruit was a disturbance, let's go!"
"Steel Sword shut up! Teal Streak don't say a word! Just look for any scorch marks or scratches." Fidget barely lifted up off the branch before the Unicorn looked straight up at her. She just hovered as they stared at each other. She was looking at her as if she had never seen a Nimbat before, while Fidget just hoped she would ignore her.
"Guys... What is that?" The Pegasus and Pony walked up next to her and stared up at Fidget. It seemed to be ages before anyone spoke a word. It was 'Steel Sword'.
"Well, Teal Streak, Moon Light, we found the disturbance..."
