Chapter 5-Part 2: Hope

Celestia paced around the throne room, often looking at the part of the wall Crew had crashed his jet through. It worried her to see such an act. When she saw Crew a few minutes ago, she saw a form with a massive amount of power inside of it. When he spoke, it was like the shadow was guilding his words, speaking with freedom on his mind.

She also found it interesting to see such a form. While she was in thought, she failed to notice the temperature lower a little. Luna was the first to notice it.

"Tia, feels cold in here, does it not?"

Celestia paused her walk, taking in a deep breath. She did feel it. "I do..."

"Why did you make Crew become the ambassador?" This was a question that was burning Luna's very core. "He knows nothing of Equestian life on a day-to-day basis, and he is still looked as an attacker."

Celestia sighed. "I know, but who else do we know? He...had this thing behind him while he spoke...Did you see it's eyes?"

"I did not."

"They were amber. Now tell me, who do WE know that has amber eyes and can vanish and reappear anywhere?"

Luna looked saddened. "He is dead, and you know it. He played his last melody long ago..."

Celestia sniffed with a nod. "What if he is like Twilight and Cadence?"

Luna's ears perked up. "Do you honestly think that he would be inside that human?"

"Think Luna!" Celestia cried out. "His flute was named Aliza because it was named after its maker and his AI is named Alice. His sir name is Walker, Gale Walker. He has the power to fly twice the speed of sound!"

"Yet, you and I know Crew holds no Mana Pathways. He cannot use magic." Luna pointed out with certainty. "Even earth ponies have Mana..."

Celestia nodded and sighed as she sat back down on her throne. "Perhaps Crew hasn't be given his yet....Perhaps....he is not ready?"

"If this were the case Tia, why? Why hasn't our love given Crew his magic yet."

Celestia closed her eyes, trying to rebuild the shadow. It stood over Crew by at least two heads, and Crew was taller than Luna. Gale was always the tallest. Even if it were for a flicker of a second, alicorn minds, especially her's, could process things a millisecond at a time. Immortals could think like no other. The amber eyes glowed faintly behind him.

"I don't know Luna... I don't know....Wait!" She jumped up. "That's it! He needs freedom!"

"The freedom he spoke about is here in Equestria sister what do you mean?"

"Gale always spoke of being free, how the sky he claimed his would be open to those who wished to reach it!" A spark ignited in Celestia's eyes. "Gale! I will help you!"

"Tia! Please explain."

Celestia turned to Luna, smiling wildly. "Gale will soon be with us, and this meeting with the Griffins will do just that. Freedom for you Gale, freedom for us all..."

Unknown to them all, a shadow had been hanging over them. It looked over the two alicorns with a soft smile on its face.

It is not freedom that I want my loves... He looked to where his new incarnation lay. He was in the library, reading about him. Gale's magic made a sigh. Soon though, everything will be clear...Wait my loves, I shall return soon to you with my new form. He shifted with the wind and dissipated.
