My Little OPony: Twilight Is Magic

Chapter 10: Dragonspark

Previous Chapter Next Chapter

The four ponies stood in front of the cave, thick plumes of smoke billowing out of it.

The dragon let out a throaty chuckle. "And what exactly is some little pony going to do to make me leave?" he asked.

"I may be little, but I'm not just anypony!" Twilight exclaimed. Confidence oozed off her gorgeous body, and even the mighty dragon was momentarily taken aback.

Her horn lit up, and a ribbon of purple energy spiraled out of it. The thin sheet of magic shot towards the huge dragon. It wound across his tail, encircling it and tightening and lengthening as it went. It moved up the the rest of his body, growing bigger and bigger, big enough to cover the entirety of the mighty creature. As the cocoon of energy reached the dragon's chest, he let out an irate growl. A jet of flame struck the spell, but it continued to expand as if nothing had happened.

The sheet of magic reached his face, and another angry roar managed to escape his lips before it wound around his mouth.

In seconds the dragon had been cocooned completely by Twilight's powerful spell. There was a hint of movement within the pointy prison, but the magic was too opaque to see through. A thin strip of magic still connected to Twilight's horn, and as the seams spiraling around the creature began to solidify and vanish, the strip thrashed violently.

Applejack opened her mouth to say something (probably both complimentary and dumbfounded), but stopped.

The cocoon began to shrink.

It was as natural and as gradual as the sun setting. Without close attention nopony would have even noticed it. After a few seconds it had become unmistakable, the dragon less than two-thirds of his former size.

As the magic shrunk, it slowly started to recede into Twilight's horn. Her aura grew brighter and brighter as the purple shell flowed into her horn.

Then it was over. The dragon had vanished. Twilight's eyes snapped open and she let out a gasp, her breathing heavy and strained.

"Twilight? Are ya alright?" Applejack muttered.

Twilight clamped a hoof over her mouth. Even muffled by the limb, her scream was loud enough for everypony to hear. There was a brilliant red flash, and everypony threw up a hoof to cover their eyes.

When the light faded, Twilight gasped.

Her mane had a red streak in it alongside the pink and purple ones, but that wasn't the main difference. A pair of wings had sprouted out of her back. They matched her coat, but they were leathery and pointy, like bat wings. She sucked in a deep breath, and it was obvious that two of her teeth had grown into fangs.

Twilight ran her tongue over one of the teeth. "I wasn't expecting that imprisonment spell to work quite like this," she muttered.

"Well, uhm, better 'n dealing with a dragon, right?" Applejack said.

Twilight coughed, and a plume of purple fire spilled out of her mouth. "I guess so. As long as the town is safe, then I don't care what sacrifices I need to make."

"Hey, having some dragon magic can't hurt, right?" Rainbow Dash started floating towards the edge of the mountain. "Besides, now you can fly again. I think those wings look good on you."

"Yeah!" Pinkie bounced happily. "And just think! You could run your own mail service! With all that dragonfire, you and Spike could corner the market!"

Twilight chuckled. "I don't deserve friends as amazing as you. Come on, we better get back to town."


Dearest Princess Twilight,

I foalnapped Fluttershy while you were off dealing with that pesky dragon. I also brainwashed her with vampire magic so now she's my slave. Because I'm evil.

Sincerely,
Princess Rarity

P.S. I'm prettier than you

Dictated, but not read.

Secretary's note; I'm really really sorry that I didn't get this right, but Princess Rarity just kept talking and talking and I lost track of what she was saying. She is so beautiful and eloquent, just watching her speak is a privilege. I could get lost in her eyes forever, even if she wasn't using magic to control me! I didn't want to ask her to repeat herself and disappoint her, so I just wrote the gist of what she was saying. The original speech was much more poetic and descriptive and worthy of someone as amazing as her, trust me!

I'm so sorry, please don't be mad! I'm not a very good brainwashed slave, but I'll try much harder next time, I promise!

Princess Rarity is a thousand times better and prettier than you,
Fluttershy

Twilight slammed her hoof onto the desk, the note beginning to smoke and curl around the edges as it crumpled under her grip.

"This is all my fault," she muttered. "I should never have left Fluttershy alone in town."

AJ put a hoof on the princess' shoulder. "There was nothin' you coulda done, Twilight."

"Yeah, none of us could convince that crybaby coward to come with us to confront the dragon." Rainbow Dash shrugged. "I say we're better off without her, anyway. She always was useless and boring."

"Rainbow Dash, how can you say that!" Pinkie shouted. "She's our friend! We need to save her, and Rarity too, even if she is a really evil vampire now. She'll always be our friend!"

"She didn't seem too repentant in the bedroom," Applejack muttered.

"But--"

Twilight held up a hoof, cutting off Pinkie's sentence before it began. "No, Pinkie, they're right. I'll do my best to save them, but if Rarity and Fluttershy can't be saved, then the safety of a Equestria comes first. As long as the world is safe, then I don't care what sacrifices I need to make." She turned to the door. "Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go report to Princess Celestia that the dragon has been dealt with."

Author's Notes:

Why did they waste an ENTIRE EPISODE on Fluttershy? She's SO BORING Twilight is way better.

EDIT: I posted this story on my fb and lj and EVERYONE thought that Princess Rarity was the best character!? What is wrong with them!! one person even said Princess Rarity and Princess Twilight should get married because they would a cute couple :twilightoops::twilightoops:! wtb is wrong with them pardon my french I'm glad fimfic users have GOOD taste and can see the real point of this story.

:raritystarry::twilightsmile: ← NO
YES → :facehoof::raritycry:

EDIT EDIT: originally this chapter was named "Dragonlight" but I think the new one sounds way cooler. Maybe I should name an OC Dragonspark? Not that I need an OC, since Twilight is so amazing.

Next Chapter: Swarm of the Twilight Estimated time remaining: 11 Minutes
