Volume 1

Episode 3

"Oh gosh I totally forgot about Rainbow Dash!" complained Twilight, while looking at her unconscious friend.

"Show me the direction and I will get her to a hospital in a few seconds." told her Ruby. as she picked up the still-bleeding pegasus.

"It's that way!" Twilight shouted pointing east.

Ruby already disappeared leaving rose petals behind her.

"She really is fast..." Fluttershy said quietly.

"At least twice as fast as Rainbow Dash, and she's doing it without even trying!" added Twilight.

"Let's go back to Ponyville." told them Applejack.

"Why go? I can teleport us all" said Twilight.

"Couldn't you use the teleport to get Dash to Ponyville?" asked her Fluttershy.

"I just regained enough power, and do you see how fast Ruby is? She's going at the very least mach 3!" exclaimed Twilight, readying up the spell.

"And how fast is that?" asked Applejack.

"Twelve hundred metres" told her Twilight

"A minute?!" asked Applejack, impressed.

"A second." told her Twilight, just as they teleporting.

Suleykaar hideout

"Grrr... my greatest creation, destroyed by HER!" growled Suleykaar, the dragon was just finishing gathering enough magic to change the time disruption.

"That'll show Celestia, hiding behind her summons! The only chance for Equestria will have to leave!"

He was starting the spell...

...and I don't know what you expected, he is a powerful dragon that also has a Lord soul, he just finished the spell.

I don't think you comprehend what a Lord soul is.

It is the foundation of the very world, if not for it, there would be no fire, nor any life, he managed to steal one of the three when he was just a baby, Celestia's father, back then a small colt, getting the second, and...

"Who took the third soul, actually?" asked himself the dragon.

"Anyways, back to wor--" started the dragon, but he suddenly realised something.

"If she can't go home, she will bring home to herself!" he lamented, visibly despaired.

He suddenly felt the Lord soul itself... laughing at him!

"What are you cackling about?!" he snapped at the soul inside him, it looked... weird, at least.

Canterlot

"He did it, he changed the time of Equestria and matched it to the universe..." informed her sister Celestia.

"So?" Luna asked her sister.

"I cannot lie, nor can you, Ruby will ask about her friends and family, we will have to send her back home." despaired Celestia.

"Sister dearest, you can be so... thick sometimes!" told her Luna.

"What do you mean?" asked Celestia.

"If we can't bring her home, why won't we bring the home to her?" asked Luna.

"Sister... from now on you're leading the country, I'm just too stupid." joked Celestia.

"Let us get the scroll ready." said Luna with a smile on her face. She liked outsmarting her sister.

She was not proud of her past, but one thing was for granted. When Luna is desperate, she can gather an army. After Celestia fought her when Luna was Nightmare Moon, an army of thestrals attacked the Royal Guard and attempted to kill Celestia, she managed to persuade the nobles of the Lunar Empire to get their guards to fight for her.

What is not documented, is that there were the Solar Empire, and the Lunar Empire back then. Luna wasn't lonely, she was complaining about the mere fact that the Sun was a lot longer than the Moon, and that no one from the Solar Empire loves her, that's why Celestia was treating her off-hoof, because her sister was simply acted childishly. No one on the Lunar Empire liked Celestia.

5 minutes later

"It would be smart to send a chariot, wouldn't it?" asked Luna.

"Let's do so." replied Celestia.

Back in Ponyville

Ruby was walking through the streets of Ponyville, humming a song.

"Ruby! Ruby Rose! Please wait!" shouted a pony from behind her, she sounded like that lavender pony, so she turned around and waited.

"Oh hi there, I just got your friend to the hospital, it's not very serious, she just got a nasty scratch, you know?" started the conversation Ruby.

"I'm grateful for that, and for what you did back at the forest. I'm sorry, I shouldn't have rated you based on your age. Wait, how old are you, and for that matter, let's maybe introduce eachother?" asked Twilight

"Okay, I guess." told her Ruby.

"I'll start then, my name is Twilight Sparkle, I'm twenty five and I'm a Princess of Magic.

"Nice to meet you, Twilight, my name is Ruby, Ruby Rose, I'm 15, and I'm a huntress-in-training of Beacon." Ruby told her.

"I'd like to ask you a few question, could you follow me to the library?" asked Twilight.

"'Kay" replied Ruby shortly.

in a park

"Hey, Rarity" said Pinkie Pie, Pinkie is and earth pony, with a light pink coat, and a puffy magneta mane and tail.

"Yes, Pinkie dear?" said Rarity, she's a white coated, with a purple mane and tail, very styled.

"You ever wonder why we're here?"

"Oh, darling, It’s one of life’s great mysteries isn’t it? Why are we here? I mean, are we the product of some cosmic coincidence, or is there really a God watching everything? You know, with a plan for us and stuff. I don’t know, darling, but it keeps me up at night." replied Rarity.

"What?! I mean why are we out here, hanging out here?"

"Oh. Uh... uhuh."

"What was all that stuff about God?"

"Uh...hm? Nothing, darling."

"You wanna talk about it?"

"No."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes."

"Seriously though, why are we out here? As far as I can tell, these are just some plain plains, ooh, do you see what I did there?." asked Pinkie.

"Mm hmm." replied Rarity.

"The only reason that we set up a picnic here, is because they have a picnic over there. And the only reason they have a picnic over there, is because we have a picnic here."

"Yeah. That's because we're fighting each other."

"No, no. But I mean, even if we were to pull out today, and if they would come take our picnic lot, they would have two picnics in the middle of a plain plain. Whoopdee-bucking-doo." complained Pinkie.

"What's up with that anyway? I mean, I signed on to sing some songs. Next thing I know, You and Vinyl blow up the whole DJ set and I’m stuck in the middle of a plain, fighting a bunch of our ex-friends."

"I actually--"

"Oh, darling! Look! A chariot is flying in the direction of the library, let's go and see what's happening!"

"You go, I'll find the rest of the girls!" said Pinkie, bouncing to the Sweet Apple Acres and Fluttershy's cottage.

Back at the library

"So, Ruby, mind if I ask a few questions?" asked Twilight.

"Okay, what do you want to know?" asked Ruby

"What species are you?" asked Twilight

"I'm a human." replied Ruby.

"What was that about Huntress?"

"Oh! I'm what is known as a Huntress-in-training, I study and train at Beacon, the best school for soon Hunters, we Hunters fight the Grimm, we're divided in teams of four!" replied Ruby as Twilight took notes.

"What is the Grimm?" asked Twilight.

"It's a collection of monsters of darkness that don't have souls." replied Ruby.

"Who are you on the team with?" asked Twilight.

"Well, we're called RWBY, I'm the team leader, the second-in-command is Wei--" she started, but was interrupted by a series of knocks on the door.

"Let's see who it is." told her Twilight, standing up.

They opened the door and what they saw shocked them.

Royal Guards, about a dozen of them, with three sky chariots.

"Uhm... gentlemen? What are you doing here?" asked Twilight.

"Princess Celestia and Luna requested you, your friends and your... dangerous companion to the Canterlot Castle, Princess."

"Well, we have to get my friends first." told them Twilight.

"That is already taken care of, Princess." told her one of the guards.

"What is this visit all about?" asked Twilight.

"About your dangerous 'friend" told her the guard.

"You know I have a name, right?" asked him Ruby, frustrated.

"My deepest apologies, ma'am...?" asked the guard for her name.

"It's Ruby." replied Ruby.

"Twilight! Twilight!" she suddenly heard yelling, her friend were running towards her, including Rainbow Dash, who has a bandaged belly..

"Rainbow Dash! You were supposed to be in bed!" whined Twilight

"And definitely not running!" she added.

"That's what you call running?" asked Ruby.

"That's more like crawling." she added.

"Because you got impossible ability of going at high speeds." told her Twilight.

"Pfft! says the impossible unicorn!" rebutted Ruby.

"Alicorn." one of the guards added.

"Yeah, big difference, isn't it?" Ruby asked sarcastically.

"Actually, yes, she's a part of every pony race" told her the guard.

"They're trotting now, seriously? This is gonna take a hour..." complained Ruby.

"Can't they go faster?" she added.

"Maybe we should move to them instead?" some guard said.

"Princess?" asked one guard for her opinion.

"Let's just move to them." said Twilight.

1 minute later

"Wait, what's that thing?!" shouted Rainbow Dash, slowing down to a walk, because Twilight and the guards started moving towards them.

"The 'thing' is a she and she saved your, scratch that, our lives, so be a little grateful!" scolded her Applejack.

"Oh, she doesn't look tough, nor like a warrior, she's a kid, I can see that from her face." said Rainbow Dash.

"Yes, and she took down a Taraxippus." rebutted Applejack.

"In three hits." she added.

"You're not joking?" asked Rainbow Dash.

"No, and brace yourself for something shocking," warned her Applejack.

"I'm ready...?" asked Rainbow Dash, unsure.

"She's easily three times faster than you can ever be." said Applejack.

"Now that's a load of--" started Rainbow Dash, but Applejack hit her in the head.

"Don't swear!" scolded her Applejack.

"I wanted to say buck..." said Rainbow Dash, massaging her head.

"Likely story-- oh here they are." said Applejack as Twilight and Ruby neared them.

Rainbow Dash neared Ruby and tried to look her in the eyes, but Ruby was twice as tall (being five feet eight inches and the average pony being two and a half feet.).

"So, is it true you are easily three times faster than me?" asked Rainbow Dash.

"It depends, how fast can you go?" asked Ruby, interested.

"I can break the sound barrier." replied Rainbow Dash.

"Do you know how the fast I can go without my natural enhancer?" asked Ruby.

"How fast?" asked her Rainbow Dash.

"I once got to mach fifteen." she replied, making Rainbow Dash sit down and look at her in awe.

"And that's without using my semblance form!" told her Ruby.

"H-how fast CAN you go with this semblance of yours?" asked Rainbow Dash, with shock written on her face.

"I actually don't know, I'm to busy fighting when I'm using it. And it's semblance form, semblance itself is a completely different thing." told her Ruby.

"That's something new, Rainbow Dash willing to learn." Said Applejack to Twilight watching Ruby and Dash talk.

"Seeing how she is the fastest being on the world, but someone comes along that can go mach 15 with little to no strain?" asked her Twilight.

"Twi, I'm not good at math, how fast is mach 15?" asked her Applejack.

"Fifty one hundred metres a second." said Twilight.

"I'm sorry, Princess, ladies? I'd ask you to get on the chariot." pleaded the guard.

"Where are we going, anyways?" asked Ruby, curious.

"To the Canterlot Castle, I think I already told you that?" asked the guard.

"But which way is it?" asked Ruby, annoyed.

"It's high up on that mountain." replied the guard, pointing to the visible castle.

"And who wants to meet me?" asked Ruby.

"Princess Luna and Princess Celestia." replied the guard, getting on the chariot.

"And how do they look?!" she raised her voice, she was tired of this annoying guard.

"They are big, one is white and one is dark-blue and they are alicorns, why do you need to know?" Twilight shouted from withing her charriot.

But Ruby was already gone, leaving rose petals behind.

"Oohmygosh ohmygosh ohmygosh ohmygosh shereallyisfast!" shouted Rainbow Dash, hyped.
