MY LITTLE PONY: A FRIENDSHIP QUEST
Chapter 3: A TEMPERED WELCOME
Previous Chapter Next ChapterTwilight Sparkle looks around, whimpers and whines, shivering in a small bit of fear, knowing what that was back there
“H-hey..” She stuttered, terrified of the outcome, she knowing what can happen if they don’t stop this
“We should find s-shelter, maybe find the other Tribes?” she suggested, her front legs shaking, she then suddenly falls to the dirty, muddy ground, covered in dead brown leaf’s, its a horrible, dull scene, not what Twilight expected from the past of her world, the only colour really there, being her coat and mane, Starswirl helps her up and shakes his head
“Are you crazy!? There dangerous and wont hesi-” He says, before being cut of by the purple Unicorn
“You don’t know that, what if there as scared of us as we are of them” She states before sneezing suddenly, sniffling and continues
“T-They could open us with open h-hooves!” She finished her sentence, Starswirl sighing and just explores with Twilight, going even more south.
Twilight looks around and tries to break the ice
“Hey.. Uhm.. So what’s your favourite food?” She asks, curious, wanting to get to know the Stallion, the said Stallion responds
“Oats I guess, I don’t know, I just eat what I’m given” she says bluntly
“Oh.. R-right, I like Hay Burgers..” She states with a little nervous giggle, they soon get out the forest and look up at the sky, trying to look for signs of Wendigos, but soon two Pegasi swoop down in there Roman like armour, holding Spears in there wings, pointing them at the two Unicorns, Starswirl then charges up his horn shoots a big laser at both Pegasi, but they quickly fly away to dodge, Twilight pushing Starswirl out the way and growling, staring him down, he gets a bit confused but angry before the purple Mare yells
“DONT ATTACK THEM!” She huffs, the Pegasi going after them and about to drive there weapons into the Mare, but before they can they hit a glowing barrier, it was admitted by Starswirl, Twilight sighs and looks into his eyes
“P-pls.. We can be friends with them, we should put our differences aside” She explains, moving her head away, they grey Stallion nodding and breaking the shield, putting his hooves up begrudgingly, Twilight does the same, the Pegasi Guards putting Apples on there horns, flying the two unicorns up into the clouds, Twilight looking up at her horn, seeing the Apple on it, the juice trickling down to the base of her horn
“That’s creative..” She comments, being fixated on it, they then reach Pegasopolis and to the main castle, Twilight tilted her head and pointing at it
“What’s that thing?” She asks, none of the Pegasi nor Starswirl respond to her, the Guards then lead the two inside the Castle.
Guards that are in the Castle, trumpets in there wings, a Guard to escorted them inside then commands
“BOW BEFORE OUR KING!! The other Guards play there trumpets, a sleek, but menacing white Pegasus with purple mane and a big wing span, a Stallion that has bright blue eyes, a scar on his left cheek, wearing royal armour, a lightning bolt symbol on his chest, he zooms down to his throne, smoke covering the room, Twilight and Starswirl looking away, coughing as the trumpets stop playing, the smoke soon clears and they look back in front of them, seeing the stallion sitting down, he looks around and then sighs, looking at some of the guards.
“Where is Private Pansy?” He asks in a bored tone, her being missing seems to be something the king is used to, a guard then responds
“In the garden your highness, taking care of the animals” The white Stallion just groans and stamps his hoof onto the ground and growls and snaps
“I SWEAR TO THE SUN!! ILL PUNISH HER!!” He yells, seeming very very aggressive, seeming short tempered, the Pegasus then notices the Unicorns, his wings flaring up suddenly to look more menacing
“WHAT ARE TWO UNICORNS DOING IN PEGASOPOLIS” The King shouts harshly, Twilight responding “H-hey sorry sure, I’m just hear to ask if we could make an alliance, we were forced from our home from an eternal win-” She states but gets cut off before she can finish
“GUARDS!! TAKE THESE OUTSIDERS TO THE DUNGEONS SO I CAN QUESTION THEM PROPERLY!” He commanded and flies back up, and away
“Wait no! Sir pls!” Twilight says, desperate, being walked out by the guards, Starswirl commenting with
“I told you there dangerous..” He says, sighing, Twilight responding
“Oh boy... What else can go wrong..” She states, looking down.
Taken into the dungeons, and locked up, Twilight and Starswirl getting the Apples of there horns and replaced them with metal, something more reliable, to contain there magic, the Purple Mare then walks to the back of her cell, looking out the bars, seeing very little of the outside world, sighing
“I... I really thing it could work... I was soo sure of it..” Twilight says quietly, Starswirls ears perking up and looking back at her, seeming a bit remorseful now.
