Unforeseen Consequences
Chapter 2: Chapter Two : A Letter to Celestia
Previous Chapter Next ChapterDear Princess Celestia
I am writing to inform you that something strange happened to me last night. My dreams were being haunted by a strange creature. It had no kind of fur and its mane was very short. It also had bright, if not glowing blue eyes. I woke up in the middle of the night. I thought that it was a very bad dream, so i went downstairs and drank a glass of water. I went upstairs again and looked out the window, and there it was.
The creature from my dream was standing at the end of the road outside my window. It wore some sort of tuxedo, and was carrying a black suitcase.
I ran outside to the place where it stood, but it wasn't there. I again spotted it at the entrance to the Everfree Forest. It stood there for a while looking at me, then it turned around and walked into the forest. I didn't follow it though, knowing better than to walk through the Everfree Forest alone at night. I also think it said "Prepare for Unforeseen Consequences" in my dream.
I also felt a weird kind of magic during the entire night. It was unlike anything i have ever felt before. It almost felt like something was watching me, but not exactly.
Have you ever heard of this kind of encounter? Please answer as soon as you can.
Your Faithful student, Twilight Sparkle.
"What are you writing?" Spike asked curiously
"Nothing, just a boring letter to the Princess." Twilight said with a hint of lie in her voice.
Spike noticed this, but he didn't want to upset her, as he remembered that when Twilight wanted to keep something secret, she really needed to.
"Alright, do you want me to send it?" He asked cautiously.
"Yes, thank you." She said with relief in her voice.
She rolled the scroll together and gave it to spike, who blew out a green flame that engulfed the scroll, sending it away,
He then trotted off and started to rearrange some books, leaving Twilight to think.
"Should i tell my friends? How would they react?" She thought
She broke herself from her thoughts and and trotted out the door.
The sunlight hit her face as she walked out from the shadow of her tree library. She stopped for a moment to enjoy it, but she then continued to walk.
Then, the strange feeling returned to her. She looked around, but spotted nothing. After the quick stop, she slowly returned to her normal walking speed. She glanced around her once every while, but could see nothing.
After a while of walking, she arrived at Sweet Apple Acres. She heard the sound of bucking in the background. She glanced around and saw Applejack bucking trees like she normally does. After standing there for a while thinking of what she should say, she walked over to her, who interrupted her bucking, wiping her forehead of sweat and said.
"Well shoot, if it isn' Twilight Sparkle. Do ya need somethin'?" Applejack said with a reassuring smile and her usual southern accent.
"I actually wanted to talk to you about something. Have you ever seen a creature with no fur, and just walking on two legs ever in your life?" Twilight asked.
Applejack thought about it for a while, then said.
"Can' say that i have. Wha', have you seen somethin' like it?" Applejack asked.
"Yes. During the night I......" She told the whole story for Applejack.
A Few Minutes Later
"Ma', thats the strangest thin' I ever heard! Hav' ya' told the Princess yet?" Applejack said with a confused expression on her face.
"I wrote her a letter this morning." Twilight said.
"Maybe ya' should try talkin' to Fluttershy bout' it? It may be a just som' sorta animal." Applejack said.
"I don't think so. It wore expertly crafted clothing, from what i could tell." Twilight stated
"Well, i don' know anythin' bout no animal that fits that description" Applejack reassured her.
"Alright, i will go and talk with rarity, so you can get back to your bucking," Twilight said.
"You take care now, ya' hear?" Applejack said with a concerned expression.
"I will, thank you Applejack." Twilight said while slowly walking away.
Twilight again was left with her thoughts, going back to the memories. Her brain did its best to analyze it, but it just couldn't. Every time she tried, it just hit a wall. She had felt the weird feeling all morning. It slowly chewed up her insides and disturbed her when she tried to think of something else.
"What is this darn feeling i keep feeling? It feels like some sort of magic, but not entirely."
Her mind continued to wander as she turned around.
There, by a tree at the side of the road, the weird creature stood, looking at her, with the same blank neutral expression. Without hesitation, she ran towards it. The creature turned around slowly and walked behind the tree.
Twilight slid past the tree and looked behind it. Nothing was there. Was it possible that the creature teleported itself? She stepped over to the place where the creature had stood and tried to feel if there was magic in the air. The only thing she felt was the weird feeling she now could feel almost everywhere.
"I must get to the bottom of this" She thought
She ran quickly to her library and slammed open her door, making Spike fell off the ladder he was standing on.
"What's going on, Twilight?" He asked angrily.
"Spike, has the Princess returned my letter yet?" She asked with desperation in her voice.
"Yes, she did so this morning, right after you left." He said and pointed to her desk.
She used her magic to unravel the scroll and read it.
Dear Twilight Sparkle
I want you to come to Canterlot at once. We have things to discuss. Also bring the rest of the Elements. I have sent a carriage to take you to Canterlot. It will arrive during noon.
Princess Celestia
"Spike, gather the elements. Tell them to meet me here. This is very important." She ordered the little dragon.
"B-But Twilight..." He started
"Now, Spike!" She ordered.
Spike gave her a look and ran out the door.
Twilight slid down into her sofa with her mind deep within thought.
Meanwhile in Canterlot
"What do you mean cancel all appointments, Tia?" Luna asked with a shocked expression
"Luna, this is very important. We can't have anyone disturbing us." Celestia said with a serious face.
"But, Tia.." Luna began
"This cannot wait, dear sister. We have to talk to the elements in peace. They will be coming at noon." She said with an autocratic voice.
Luna hesitated, but then left the room. Celestia remained in the room alone.
"Why has he returned? Why has he contacted Twilight Sparkle? What can be so important to have 'him' contact her directly?"
Her mind was racing between thousands of questions, but had no answer to any of them.
She stood up and trotted over to the window, looking out. Memories filled her mind as she thought about the time before ponies. Before the green land she now lives in. The time when the land consisted of nothing but rocks and horrible creatures. Creatures so horrible that they would have scared even Discord.
She had not seen 'him' for more than five thousand years.
"Why would he return now?" Her thoughts jumped around in her head.

Now, this are starting to heat up. None has guessed my Nationality yet, so keep trying. Anyway, i didn't really know how to type Applejacks southern accent, so i just did what i have seen others do. Also, continue to write critique to help me learn the language better than i already do. I also want to know if this is the correct way to type conversations. Also try to rate it so it gets noticed more. Thanks for reading and as always..... Have nice day/b]
