My Little Pony: The Last Element
Meet Up
Previous ChapterLet's started of where we last lift off. When, Applejack and, Muller were both on the ground as they watched a Changeling get knocked out by a figure that come bursting out the dirt, and landed on its feet.
"...R-rave?!" Muller said, recognize who it was.
Rave turned around and looked at Muller and said, "Oh, hey Muller! So, how was your first date?" with a smile.
Muller didn't know how to respond to that, but his mind couldn't wrap around anything at the moment as his vision started to blur, his head felt heavy as he started to slip out of consciousness, limply falling to the ground.
"Muller!" Applejack said aloud, seeing that her date now unconscious.
Rave saw this and instantly ran over to him; kneeled down and placed two fingers on his neck for and waited a moment.
"He's gonna be alright. He's just passed out." He said while looking at Applejack. But instead of her showing a sigh of relief, she looks down with a face of disappointment.
"Applejack!" she heard as she looked up and saw her little sister run and wrapped her forehoofs around her neck. "What happenin' ? What goin' on!?" Apple Bloom said hysterically.
Rave then got up and walked over to Applejack and offered a hand, "Why don't we go back to the house first, and then you can explain what happened." Rave said.
Applejack took his hand and got back on her hoofs. "There nothin' much too explain. One minute me and Muller and havin' a good time - the next we're getting' attack by this here thing."
She then felt a tapping next to her. She looked down and saw, Apple Bloom with her hat in mouth. She gave her little sister a warm smile and took her hat. She looked around her and saw the Changeling on the ground.
"Ah'm just glad that you happen to came along." Applejack said.
"Well actually. I came here to see, Apple Bloom and her friends." Rave said.
Apple Bloom than walked up to him and cocked her head slightly and said, "Uh... do ah know you?" not knowing how was standing before her.
"Yeah, it's me! Brave Born!" he said with a smile.
Apple Bloom's face began to light up as she recognized who he was. "Rave! It's you!" she said, pouncing his right leg. He responded by playfully rubbing her head.
Applejack was a tad confused, "Wait, how do you know mah sister?" she asked, Rave.
"Well you see. When I first got to this dimension, I woke up and saw that was in the Everfree forest. I walk out of the forest and saw a club house with three little fillies playing in front of it. And that's when I met Apple Bloom and her friends." Rave said explaining.
"Yeah! Ah mean, at first we were a little scared 'cause we didn't what he was. But when he said he wasn't gonna hurt us, we gave him a chance and found out he was really, really friendly." Apple Bloom said.
"They also told me about Zecora who lives in the forest, and said I should go see her. So I decided to go met her so she could tell me where I was. And If I wanted to came back and see her and her pals, I came here to Sweet Apple Acres. So I went back into the forest - drop kicked a Manticore - one thing led to another blah, blah, blah."
"Well alright,-" Applejack looked to her right, "-But what do we do 'bout that?" Applejack said, pointing at what looks like her brother.
Rave walked up to it and keeled down next to it. He then attempted to place a hand on it, but saw it doing something. In a quick flash of green flash of light, Rave saw the big red unconsciousness pony turn into what he thought was a big black bug.
"Interesting...-" Rave then stared at it for a moment, "-...Okay then… I think we should bring this thing too." He said.
Applejack's was shocked at this decision. "WHAT! There's no way we're bringin' this Changeling back to the house!" she objected.
Rave then turn around and said, "Don't you want to find out why it attacked you."
"Ah already know why it attacked me! A Changeling feeds off of the love and affection of other's!" Applejack said.
Rave raised a brow, "... I see. And since you and, Muller were on a date, so it took it's chance." Rave stated.
"Now you see why we can't bring this thing!?" Applejack yelled.
Rave paused for a second and said, "Listen to me; you don't have to worry about anything. I'll be here if anything happens; I promise."
Applejack looked at, Rave and sighed. "Al'right then. Ah trust you. And Ah trust that you makin' the right choice." She said.
"Thank you." Rave said.
He than looked and saw, Applejack's lasso on the ground. And just then his horn started to glow red, and after a second it changed it's color from red, to yellow, to green, and then back to red again; and so did the lasso. The lasso than rose off the ground and floated too Rave's hand.
Applejack was a bit surprised, "Since when did you know how to use your magic?" she said.
"Since last night.-" Rave than keeled down and began to tie the Changling up, "-When me and Chase were staying at Twilight's house, we decided to do some reading. We found a bunch of magic books and read though 'em." Rave said.
"Speckin' of Chase - where is he?" Applejack asked.
"Back at, Twi's place."
"Well get 'em down here ASAP. Don't ya'll have a way of contactin' each other?" she asked.
Rave stood up and dusted off his hands and thought for moment. "Actually, now that you mention it..."
*FLASHBACK*
It was when Celestia's sun was at the top of the sky. And within Twilight's library were a Alicorn was reading page after page from books that were available to him. We now turn to, Brave Born, who was sitting on Twilight's; reading a book, with a few books next to him. He then closed the book and sighed.
"Okay, I think that's ever book in here...-" Rave than put his hand's be-hide his head and laid down on the table. "-what now?"
He then herd hoof step coming down the stares. He turned his head and saw the owner of the library, Twilight Sparkle. She came down yawning into her hoof and what looked like serious case of bed head.
"Afternoon, Twilight." Rave said.
Twilight then had a surprised look on her face, "Wait? Did you just say 'afternoon'?!"
"I did." Rave said, sitting back up.
She looked at her the clock, "Wow! I... I've never slept in this long before!"
"Well you look like you slept well." a voice said be-hide her.
She turns and sees, Dream Chaser walking in from her kitchen, levitating a bowl of fruit salad that had been covered in a silver-colored magical aura. "Here ,Twilight." he said, holding it out.
"Oh, well thank you Chase. That's very thoughtful of you. It looks delicio-" Twilight then realized something, and was ones again surprised, "Hold on? When did you learn a levitation spell."
"Last night. You had a few spell books laying so we took a look. Hope that's alright with you?" Chase said.
Twilight told the bowl with her own magic, "It's fine, it's just - Wow! You guys manage to learn spells in a matter of a few hour! That's amazing!"
Both Chase and Rave than look at each other and smirked. "Well, we did have all night."
"All night? You mean you didn't go to sleep?!" Twilight said in surprised.
"We don't need it. And you know you're right, Chase, I've have been in here all night, so I think I'm gonna for a run, then maybe go see some friends." Rave said jumping off the table.
"Really who?" Twilight asked.
"I met them when I first got here, they called them self, the Cutie Mark Crusaders. Anyway, later." Rave said walking to the door.
"Hey bro, hold on a sec." Chase said, following him to the door.
"What's up?" Rave asked.
Chase then walked up to him and pick his hand up and extended his two of his fingers and gently push his forehead. Rave felt his forehead and said, "What was that for?"
Chase simply smiled, "So we can do this." Rave heard in his head.
Rave was a bit spooked, "Wha-Whoa! How did you do that." he said, confused.
"It's a telepathic ability I learn about two dimensions ago. So if anything happens, just use the new ability I gave you."
"Just like that?!"
"Just like that." Chase said simply
Awesome! Thank bro!-" They immediately fist pumped,"-But um, one quick question? Can you hear whatever I'm thinking?"
"No. I can only hear want you what me to hear, your thoughts are your own."
"Okay, thanks again, cya. Later, Twilight." Rave said, while waving his hand.
"Good-bye." Twilight responded.
Rave then transformed into his pony form in a flash of light and then opened the door and step out.
*Back To Reality*
"So you can tell him what happened... by usein' your head?" Applejack asked.
"That's right. I think all I have to do is think like I'm taking to him... I think." Rave said.
Rave then put his two fingers to his temple and thought as if his was speaking with, Chase. "Hey, Chase? You there?" Rave thought, than waited.
After a second he heard, "Hey, Rave, I'm here. What's up?" It was Chase.
"Cool, it's works!" Rave thought in his head.
"'Course it works. Is there a problem?" Chase asked.
"Yeah, there is. I came to a farm that one of the girl's - Apple Bloom - told me to came to. And when I got here, she wasn't here. Her family that lives here told me that she want to the orchard to look for, Applejack - so I went in to look for her." Rave explained.
"Is she missing or something?"
"No. But when I got her she about to attack some other red pony with a pitch fork. But don't worry, I stopped him, and she fine."
"Okay than, so what's the problem?"
"It's Applejack and Muller."
"Wait, what!?" Chase thought, concerned.
"It's was the red pony, he attack them."
"Are they okay?!" he thought, worried.
"Well from the looks of it, Applejack Is a bit bruised up, but she alright."
"What about Muller?"
"Not so good, he looks like he got the hell beaten out of him. He's out cold."
"Damn... and what about the red pony?"
"That's the thing. It wasn't really a red pony at all."
"What? What do you mean?"
"From what Applejack told me, it's a creature that can shape shift called a Changeling."
After that there was silence, Rave heard nothing, "Chase?" he thought, seeing if he was still there.
"... Yeah, I'm still here, Just thinking... Alright, alright, I'll get there as soon as I can. But in the mean time; get Applejack, Muller, and Apple Bloom to a safe place. And don't forget bring the Changeling with you." Chase thought.
"Already ahead of you. See ya in a bit."
"Alright, tell than."
After that, there was nothing but silence. Rave heard nothing. Applejack than got a bit worried, "What's wrong? Did something happen?" She asked.
"Chase is coming here shortly. Which means we need to get, Muller and the Changeling back to the house." Rave said walking past her.
"Alright, shouldn' be to hard. There's a cart over yonder that we can use to move the Changeling." Applejack suggested.
"Okay then, you pull the cart, while I'll carry Muller back."
She nodded and went get the cart. Rave walked to, Muller and said, "Transform."
Turning into his pony form and then used his magic to lift his unconscious friend on to his back. He than turned to Apple Bloom and said, "Come on Apple Bloom, let's get going."
She than nodded and then found herself covered in Rave's magical aura and was lifted onto the back of Rave's head. They both exchanged smiles and want to go help Applejack with the cart.
*Meanwhile at Twilights house*
At Twilight's library; Chase was downstairs and just ended his telepathic call with Rave. He then realized that he didn't know how to get to Applejack's home. He quickly ran up stairs and knocked on Twilight's bedroom door.
"Twilight, please open up!" Chase said through the door.
Chase heard hoof steps coming toward him. And he than saw the door open and with Twilight standing there. "What's wrong, Chase? Is something the matter?"
"There's trouble down at a place called Sweet Apple Acres. I need you to take me there." Chase said.
"Trouble?! What happened?! Is Applejack okay?!" Twilight said frantically.
"She fine, but she and Muller were attacked."
"Attacked by who?!" Twilight asked.
Chase thought for a second to remember what for called it and said, "Something called a Changling."
Twilight couldn't believe what she just heard, "D-did you say... a Changling."
"You sound like you've dealt with them before." Chase said, noticing that she sounded like she knew what she was about.
"Yes, me and my friends have fought them in the past once. And if what you're saying is true than...-" Twilight turn to her sleeping assistant, "-Spike!"
At that moment, Spike jump out of his bed and hysterically asked, "W-w-what happened?!"
"Spike, I need you to write a letter to Princess Celestia that a Changling is has attack Sweet Apple Acres." Twilight said.
"A Changling! Don't worry, Twilight, I'm on it!" Spike said, with a fist to his chest.
"Come on, let's go." Twilight said to Chase.
Chase nodded he's head, and without saying a word he transformed into his pony form and said to Twilight, "Lead the way."
Twilight then galloped past Chase and went downstairs. She quickly used her magic to open her front door and went through, closing it behind them. After that, they were soon on their way to Sweet Apple Acres.
"So,-" Chase started while galloping next to Twilight, "-What can you tell me about the Changeling?" he asked.
"I don't really know much. I mean no pony does. They're creatures that able to change their form into any pony they want." Twilight explained.
"Yeah, I thought that part out already." Chase smirked, "What else do you know?"
"Well for one thing they feed off of love from other ponies."
Chase stopped galloping and slide across the dirt. Twilight looked back and stopped as well.
"What's wrong?" she asked.
Chase looked to his left. Twilight then looked and saw what he was looking at. It was the Hey n' stay hotel. The same one that The Colts where staying.
"I think we should let them know what's happening." Chase suggested.
Twilight looked back at, Chase, "Are you sure?" she asked.
"Muller is like a brother to them, they need to know what's going on here." he said, trotting up the front door.
Chase than knocked on it and waited. He waited a bit, and then stepped back.
Twilight looked at him. "Chase, what are yo-"
*WHAM*
Chase sent the door flying inside the hotel. Twilight stood there shock.
"Sorry. Like I said; force of habit. I really do need work on that though." Chase said while walking in.
He looked around and saw that the front desk. He trotted up to it and saw a little bell and rang it. "Hello?" Chase hollered.
And out of nowhere, Berry Bubble pops out and says. "Welcome to the Hey n' Stay hotel, how may I help you." Barry said. "Oh hey, Chase."
"Barry? You work here?" Chase asked.
"No. I'm just looking after the place while the manager in out shopping." Barry said, grinning. He looked to his side, and saw a Twilight standing next to him. "Who's you friend?" Barry asked.
"This is Twilight Sparkle, but more importantly, I need-"
Chase was interrupted by, Barry gasping like he needed air. "Oh my gosh! You're thee, Twilight Sparkle! You went on a date with Dusk last night, right?!"
Twilight blushed a bit, "Yes, I did." she said.
Chase interrupted, "Yeah, nice; Berry I need you to-"
Barry continued, totally oblivious to Chase. "Well it's an honor to actually meet you! And I just want you to know that Dusk Shine is the smartest, coolest, and most awesome pony you'll ever mee-"
Chase grabbed Barry by his face and pull it toward his, "BARRY!" Chase said.
"Yes?" Barry said, casually.
"I need you to get your friends; Muller is in trouble." Chase said.
"What did you just say?!" said a voice said.
Chase looked to his left and saw Dusk and the other Colts. He let go of Barry face and let it drop to the floor, "I said: Muller is in trouble. Well, he was. He's got attack by a creature called a Changeling."
Everyone was shock. "A Changeling?! Are you for real?!" Blitz said.
"Yes, we are. Trust us, we to go to Sweet Apple Acres right now!" Twilight said.
"Well what are we waiting for? Let us be off!" Elusive said.
After that. They all galloped out the hotel and made they way toward Sweet Apple Acres. While doing so, Chase though to himself, "I wonder? Could this be tied to that machine we found in the forest? Chase said in head, "Guess we'll have to find out."
"There it is!" Twilight said.
Chase looked ahead and saw a farm with a house and a barn, with a apple orchard going about two and a half miles in each direction.
"Come on!" Chase said, galloping past everyone else.
Not soon after, they followed his lead and went to catch up. It wasn't long after that they all past the gate into Sweet Apple Acres and were finally there. Chase looked and saw the house and trotted to it. He then, knocked on the door. It wasn't long that he saw the door open and a little old lady standing there.
"Yes, may Ah help you?" she said.
"Um, yeah, can we see if Applejack and Muller are alright?" Chase said to her.
"Alright?! Why wouldn't they be?" She asked.
It was at that moment the, Chase knew that they weren't there yet. He turned around and said to everyone, "Guess were the first ones here."
Everyone was a bit disappointed, "Now what?" Blitz asked.
"We wait, I guess." Dusk said.
It was then that, Butterscotch noticed something coming out of the orchard. "Fellas,-" he pointed toward the orchard "-look!" Butterscotch said.
Everyone looking the direction he was pointing in, and saw what he saw. They saw, Brave Born carrying, Muller on his back, and saw, Applejack pulling a cart. they all rush over to where the were.
"Oh my gosh, are you okay, Applejack?!" Twilight.
"Don't worry Ah'm fine. It, Muller y'all need to worry 'bout." Applejack said looking at, Muller; who was still unconscious.
"Come on, let's get you inside." Twilight insisted.
Applejack followed, Twilight back to her house. Right then; Chase saw what was in the back of the cart. He walk closer to it and saw a black creature - tie up and unconscious.
"Well would 'cha look at that." Chase said to himself.
Rave then said "Alright... you guys get Muller in side the house, I'll treat him in a bit."
The did what, Rave asked. Rave then gave them Muller and they want to go get him inside and look after. Rave than walked over to Chase, "So, you gonna do what I'm thinking you're gonna do?" Rave asked.
"Wake it up and make it tell me why it attack them?" Chase guessed.
"Yep!" Rave said with a grin.
"Yes I am. And don't worry; I got this. You should go with the other and wake Muller up and heal him." Chase said to, Rave.
"Alright, call me if you need anything." Rave said, while trotting to the house.
Chase look at it and then use his new magic ability to lift it off the cart and into the air. "Let's find out why you're here, shall we."
*Meanwhile with Rave*
Rave opened the door and walked in. He saw, Muller laying on a couch and, Applejack sitting next him on the floor. He also saw The Colts gathered around them as well; worried about him.
Rave walked to them and as soon as the heard him come in the started asking questions.
"Rave! What happened?!" Dusk asked.
"Why is, Muller all beat up?!" Barry asked.
"Who did this?! As soon as I can my hoofs on him!" Blitz said.
Rave trotted past them. "Guys, at least let me wake him up first, alright. The I'll tell you what happen." he said with small chuckle.
He than looked and saw that, Applejack was starting to tear up. Rave simple put a hoof on he shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I got this."
Applejack then moved away let, Rave do what he wanted to do. Rave reached out and put a hoof on Muller's forehead, he closed his eyes and made his hoof glow. After a moment he took he's hoof off and his head and waited. Five seconds past and they saw, Muller move. He stared to open his eye little by little and saw figures in front of him and soon his vision started to come back to him.
"R...rave?" Muller said.
"Afternoon, Muller." Rave said to him with a smile.
"MULLER!" The others yelled, swarming, Muller; happy to see the he okay. Although, Muller just wake and didn't know what was going on at the moment. He put a hoof on face and then winced in pain.
"Can somepony tell me want happened." Muller said, feel in his face.
"You mean you don't remember?" Butterscotch asked.
Rave put and hoof and Butterscotch's shoulder and said, "I just woke him up. Give him a minute to collect his thoughts."
Everyone stop and looked at, Muller. He closed his eyes and thought. And It all came back to him. The picnic, the kiss he almost got, the pitchfork, the Changeling, the fight... losing.
He looked to he's right and saw, Applejack staring at him. "Ah remember..."
Applejack look down and hide her face with her hat. She seem to of mumbled something under her breath.
"What was that, I didn't hea-?" Muller said, but was interrupted.
And out of nowhere, with out putting a second thought in it. Applejack want up and to, Muller and place her lips on to his. Muller got caught off guard and didn't know what to do. But then, he saw something in the corner off his eye... a tear.
"Applejack..." Muller said in his head.
Muller closed he's eyes and lead and melted into the kiss, And after ten seconds of this, Applejack slowly back away and gets closer and hugs he's chest. "Ah said: Thank goodness yer alright..."
Muller didn't know what to say after that. He simple just wrapped his forehoofs around her and bring her in close. He couldn't help but smile at the fact she cared so much her his safety.
Meanwhile, The Colts couldn't help but feel a bit awkward watching all of that from be hide them. "Um... right then! We'll be in the kitchen you need us. Come along every pony!" Elusive said, hinting.
Everypony follow that hint and went into the kitchen. "Hey, Dusk? Remind you of any pony?" Blitz said.
At that moment, Dusk blush. He knew exactly what he was getting at. But Twilight couldn't help but overhear what, Blitz said. "What did he say, Dusk?"
"O-oh, nothing!" Dusk said, hesitantly.
Rave, laughed at the little joke that, Blitz pulled. Then suddenly, heard voice in his head. "Hey, Rave?" the voice said.
Rave put a hoof up to his head and answered, "Yeah man?"
"I want you to come to the barn real quick."
"Alright. Be there in a sec."
And with that, Rave walked out the kitchen and out the door. He than proceeded he's why in to the barn. He opened the door to the barn and saw, Chase standing above a now conscious Changeling, and by the looks of it, the Changeling wasn't having any fun.
"I'm glad your here." Chase said to, Rave. "I want you to meet someone. This is my partner Brave Born." he said, turning to the Changeling.
Rave caught on, and followed his lead. "Hey there. Remember me?" Rave said.
The Changeling wasn't amused. He then hissed at him in anger for what he did you him.
"Oh, enough of that." Chase said. "Why don't you tell him what you told me, huh?"
The Changeling looked at, Rave once more and sighed.
"I've... forgotten what it taste like... and I could stand it anymore! I needed to tasted it again; at least once!" said the Changeling.
"And what it that?" Rave asked.
"Love!" the Changeling said.
This surprised, Rave, "What do you mean by 'Love'!" Rave asked.
Chase step forward, "Yes; Allow me to explain: Not only can their change there form in to any pony the wish. But they can absorb the feeling/emotion, of love." He said.
"Oh really?" Rave said, intriguingly.
"Yes. They need it to survive. Not to mention it make them incredibly strong."
"I see?" Rave said, now putting the pieces together.
It was at this time the Changeling started to get nervous. Both, Chase and, Rave saw this and began to finish up.
"And when he's looking for food, he just so happens to find two farm pony having a date. And he's probably thinking, 'How lucky am I'... but then you get a closer look at one of them, and you called her..." Chase said, walking around the Changeling.
the Changeling sighed, "...Honesty...".
"Right, and we'll go back to that in a sec." Chase said, walking away. "So you took the from of my friend's brother and attacked them while they were having a nice picnic. Am I not mistaken?"
"...Yes..." The Changeling said.
"Right, so my question is: by 'Honesty', you mean what exactly?" Chase asked, walking toward it.
The Changeling then started to snicker, "Must not know you're friends well." it said.
"Than enlighten us, why don't you." Rave said.
"...Fine. The orange one... is the element of honesty..."
Chase and, Rave looked at one another. "Right then. One more question... Where is the red pony?" Rave asked.
The Changeling started to sweat when he heard the question. "W-what?!"
'You heard me. Tell us where he is!" Rave said.
The Changeling, took a gulp and started to laugh. "Wouldn't you like you know." it said.
Rave sighed for a moment and said, "Fine. Have it your way. I didn't want to do this but, you've force my hoof." While extending his hoof.
"What are you doing?!" the Changeling asked.
Rave place a hoof and it forehead and closed his eyes. And after a moment, he let go and had a confused look on his face.
"What's wrong?" Chase asked.
"He's here." Rave said, looking around.
"Where?!" Chase said, looking around as well.
"He's mind is fuzzy. Probably when know him out." Chase said, annoyed.
"H-how did you do that." the Changeling wondered.
"Wouldn't you like to know!" Chase said to it.
Rave than look up and his eye's widen at what he saw. "Uh... I think, I found him." Rave said, in disbelief. Chase than looked up as well and saw something he couldn't believe either.
They saw the pony they were looking for in what they thought was some sort of green, slimy cocoon. "That's just gross, dude." Rave commented.
"Agreed. Let's get 'em down." Chase said.
Rave nodded and held up hid right hoof. Suddenly, he waved it across from left to right. When out of nowhere a slash of wind come out and cut the cocoon open. Right then, the red pony fell out of the cocoon, and was caught by, Chases magic. Chase then put him down and saw that he covered in green slimy goo. Chase than put and hoof on his head and waited and moment. Soon enough; the pony woke up and saw, Chase standing over him.
He then started to freak out from then sudden turn of events, and started to back away. Chase saw him and said, "Hey, hey! Calm down! It's alright!"
The pony looked around and said, "W-what's happened?! W-what's goin' on?!"
"We were hoping you could tell us. My name is Dream Chaser, and this is Brave Born. Do you know who you are?" Chase said to him.
"Big Macintosh... Why are ya'll in my barn? An' why am Ah covered in this goo?!"
"You were a cocoon. Do you remember anything?" Rave asked.
Big Mac looked like his started to clam down and look down and thought. He looked back up and said, "A-ah remember, Ah was in the orchard buckin' apples and then Ah remember seein' a shovel an' then, nothin'."
"A shovel? The Changeling must of knocked him out and took his place." Chase said in his head. "Right then. Why don't you go back inside the house and get cleaned up, okay." Chase said to him.
Big Mac nodded and got up. It was a bit tricky because of the goo he was covered in. But he manage and left the barn.
"Now then...-" Chase turned to the Changling, "-What do we do with you?" he said.
The Changeling had a fearful look in its eye's as they both stepped closer to it. But suddenly...
"Hello! I'm Looking for miss Twilight Sparkle and, miss Applejack, and the ones called Dream Chaser and Brave Born!"
Chase and Rave looked be hide them and saw that it came from outside. "Wait here, dude." Rave said.
Chase nodded and waited with the Changeling while he trotted outside. When Rave got outside, he was bit surprised to see big white unicorns and brown Pegasi in golden armor with golden carriages to match. He looked closer and saw some pony in them. He looked around and saw what looked a like a prison cart.
Then out trotted Twilight and Applejack, wondering what was going on. "It there a problem sir's?" Twilight said to one them.
"Miss Twilight, we've been ordered by Princess Celestia to take you and your friends to Canterlot." the guard said.
Twilight and Applejack looked and past them and saw that there friend, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, and Fluttershy are already in the carriages. "HI TWILIGHT! HI APPLEJACK!" Pinkie Pie yelled from the carriage.
Then out trotted Dusk and rest of The Colts to see what was going on as well. "Twilight!? What's happening?" Dusk asked.
"It's alright Dusk, there here for me and Applejack." Twilight said.
"What a moment! You there!" the guard said, pointing at, Dusk.
"Um, yes sir!" Dusk said.
"Are you Dusk Shin? And are those" the guard pulled out a list, "-Lightning Blitz, Grape Muller, Butterscotch, Barry Bubble, and Elusive standing be hide you?" he said.
"Uh, y-yes sir! We are sir!" Dusk said to him, a bit nervous.
"Then you save us the trouble of looking for you. You and your friends are to come with us as well."
The Colt's looked at one another in disbelief and confusion, but nonetheless followed the guard and got on to the chariot. But then one guard looked at, Rave standing next to barn door and said. "You there!"
Rave look at him and said, "Who me?"
"Yes, you." the guard said, trotting up to him.
"Couldn't be?!" Rave said, chuckling and smiling.
"Who are you?!" he said losing his patience.
Rave than got a bit serious and told him, "My name is, Brave Born."
The guard cleared his throat, and said, "Well then, please come with us. And also, in my report there had been a Changeling attack here. Is that true?"
Rave smiled and yelled, "Chase! Bring it out here!"
The guard had a suspicious look on his face when, Rave said that. Then, Chase comes out the barn while carrying with the Changeling with a magic. "This what you looking for?" Chase said.
All the guards saw this and immediately surrounded the Changeling; aiming they spaers at it. "Put it in the cage! Now!" the guard said to the others.
"Sir!" they resounded, and did what they were told.
The guard turned to Chase, "Are you the one called, Dream Chaser." he the guard asked.
"I am." Chase said.
"Did you apprehend this Changeling?" Guard asked.
"Nah, that was all, Rave." Chase said to the guard, "Right, bro?"
"Yes, yes I did." Rave said, in a slight boastful tone.
"Then please, come with us. The princess would like to have a word with you two." he said walking back to the carriage.
Both of them looked at each other, "Looks like where going for a ride." Chase said smiling. And went to get on the carriage
Meanwhile in Canterlot
We find two Alicrons - one white with a long and flowing mane with shining bright colors, and the other blue with a long and flowing mane that resembled the night sky- walking down a long hallway, And once they get to the door that said 'Dungeon', they open it. and once open they were greeted by a guard.
"Hello your majesty's. Are you here to see the prisoner." the guard said, bowing
"Yes we are. Please take us to him." the white princess said.
"As you wish." the guard said leading him to him
As they started to walking down the hall with prison cells to their left and to there right. The blue princess asked, "I'm curious. Just what crime did this prisoner commit?"
"We found him unconscious in the royal garden and when we woke him up, he started attack us. While in the scuffle, at least twelve guard are injured."
"And who is this pony?" the white princess asked.
"We don't know your highness." the guard said. "Here he is." he said, as the guard stopped and turned to he's left.
Both the princess look in the cell and saw a Alicron wearing black ropes asleep; on his side with his back facing the princess.
"He's an Alicron?!" the blue princess asked.
"Yes. But he doesn't seem have any records of royalty." the guard said.
"Well, may you please wake him up so we can ask him a few questions?
"I'm sorry, but if you look closely. He's whole coat is cover in steel. And we've tried to wake him, but he won't move."
"Steel!? How?" the white princess asked.
"Well you see, in the fight, he grabbed hold of one of our spears and he appears to have absorbed the contents of it."
"I see." the white princess said to herself.
Suddenly, another guard came bursting through the door and said, "Princess Celestia and Princess Luna. We just got news that Twilight Sparkle and friends well be arriving here shortly. Followed by the arrival of the one who helped stop the Timberwolves attack, Dusk Shin and his friends. And we news to report that a Changeling attack the farm named Sweet Apple Acres, and was stopped by the ones you also requested, the ones named, Dream Chaser and, Brave Born." the guard said to them.
But just then. The sleeping pony's eye's shot open and quickly get up and garbed the bars of the cell, "Wait! Did you just say, Dream Chaser and Brave Bor- AGHHH!" he yell out in pain.
He then fell to the floor and moaned in pain. "Are you alright?!" Princess Luna asked, in a worried tune.
He turned over and wailed in pain for a moment and said, "Agh... it's alright, I'm fine. It's just that my body hasn't heal itself yet." He said, sitting himself up. "But, did you say Dream Chaser and Brave Born?!"
"Silence prisoner! That type of info is-" the guard said.
But Princess Celestia put a hoof out, tell him to quiet down, and he did so. "Yes, he did. Why, do you know them?" she said.
"Yes. I've been looking for them for a long time now." the pony in ropes said.
"Well if you are alright, in the mean time, you won't mind if we ask you a few questions?" Princess Luna asked.
He then rubbed his head, "I don't see why not." he said.
"Alright then. Can you first tell us your name?" Princess Celestia asked.
"Ian." he said.
"Ian? And is, 'Ian' short for somthing?" She asked him.
"Yes, it's short...-" Just than. The steel from his coat started to fade away, showing his true colors of a Caucasian colored coat, a black shaggy mane, thinned eye lines, "-for, Guardian." he said.
