Storm lead the way through the camp's yard to their kitchen. Although they are commanding, Storm still liked to cook them meals and not someone else to make him. "Alright. What do all of you want today?" He asked Starchase, Midnight, Lektra, Caliber And Chrysteel while he grabbed some ingrediaemts to cook. He was known to be the cook of the group.

[LyraBae 82]

"Oooh, pancakes! Please please!" the filly cheered. She was jumping up and down, her hair bouncing like a spring. I love pancakes! she screamed inwardly. Midnight twirled around, acting like a school filly, which she was. "Pancakes pancakes pancakes!" she sang.

[P-Jay 1,987]

caliber looked over the choices, and replied, "everything. twice." he then took out his sword, and started to polish it. "i could help cook, if ya want me to." caliber offered. "i eat quite a lot. so it would only be fair if i helped." caliber grinned. he had cooled down somewhat.

[Midnight_Aurora 571]

"As long as it's made with T.L.C. I would eat anything."

 

Chrysteel has a pink orb about the size of a softball. It slowly grows in size. When it resches double its starting size it splits. It does this process till there are 16 softball size orbs near her. She then begins to make shapes out of them, Increasing and decreasing the number as needed for the shapes. She looks to be practicing magic control.

[LyraBae 82]

Midnight trots over to the practicing Chrysteel, "May I practice my magic with you? I'm not the most talented at my magic spells...especially teleportation." She gestured toward her horn, small sparkles being released from it. Pancakes...must have pancakes! she thought.

[LordSwinton 759]

"I'll settle with a fresh fruit smoothie and some simple pastries." Food sounded good. He felt absolutely starved, when was his last meal?

 

Wait, who is this cooking stallion? He'd never seen him bef-Everything seemed wrong but he couldn't put his hoof on it. Oh well, at least there's food.

"If you want everything twice, you can help me cook, Caliber. But how did you even get that hungry? Did the training drained you that much?" Storm was surprised by Caliber's request, although he had accepted his offer. He used levitation spells to cook up the food for everypony, and just as they liked too. The pancakes was done quickly and the plate with them was set on the table for Midnight. The apple pies and muffins were being baked in the oven while Storm continued to cook the apple fritter and apple crisp. His multi-tasking abilities while cooking is really amazing. Meanwhile, a few fruits floated into the blender after having properly prepared, followed by the lid and the blender starting.

[P-Jay 1,987]

Caliber grinned. "nah, i just have a really big appetite." he said as he started making his meal. he used his sword a couple time, along with some levitation. "but the training was tiring. ill give her that" caliber remarked. "best spar i'v had in a while!" he continued making his food, a pile that was getting increasingly bigger.

[Midnight_Aurora 571]

Nodding to Midnight Chrysteel says, "Sure it's a simple spell. To be honest this is actually the first time I have used anything other then changeling magic. I didn't know I could use pony magic. It's fun actually." Chrysteel looked like she was enjoying herself. She also felt more full then she had in years. The food request was for decency. She didn't wish to affend her cook. After a bit and while maintaining her spell, Chrysteel asks, the cooking pony, "How long till graduation? It feels as if we have been here for years."

"Graduation?" Storm was caught off guard by the sudden question from Chrysteel. Plates of food were being served and more food was cooked, mostly for Caliber, while he thought about the question and answered her. "I'm not sure to be honest. We have been here for a long time. But no one had said anything about leaving here. Not that I complain..." The last sentence from him had an unsure manner, as if he wanted to get out of the camp and go somewhere.

Chrysteel now knew something was off. Her heart swelled with sorrow and compassion for him. "Then we work hard and gain what we need. The world beyond is a wonder and a mystery. I for one wish to see it again. To be as I truely am in all regards. To love and be loved for who and what i truely am. This is my reason for training. Never have I encountered a place that one can't leave. Even the elements have to face a foe they know are beyond this camp."

 

Chrysteel stands and looks to the others, "I believe yall would agree. We have things that must be done and foes whom only we can face. This isn't something that sits right with me. And by the element in my tiara, we will solve this as a team."

[AmberDust 1,118]

Amber snapped out of her trance when a plate of pancakes was dropped in front of her. Her stomach growled loudly.

"Oh, thank you," she said, looking up to the unfamiliar stallion. She ruffled her new wings. Since they had left their bedroom, Amber's mind had been fixated on the bowing stallions back in the gated courtyard they passed through. Nopony else seemed to have noticed them, but they most certainly were there, and most certainly weren't there before she fell asleep...at least, according to her memory.

Amber's stomach growled at her again. The aroma from the pancakes was just too much, and she lost her train of thought. Amber began scarfing down the pancakes, (her favourite breakfast from her childhood,) hardly noticing the ponies around her. When she had her fill, she stood up. Her mind had snapped back to the barbed-wire courtyard.

"Did anypony find it weird," she started suddenly, thinking out loud, "That those ponies bowed to us?" She looked about the room curiously. Now that her hunger was subsided, her need for answers was taking over. She looked to her own element, then to her wings.

This feels wrong, she thought, her mind all hazy. It was as though her thoughts were coming from far away, and had to travel via tinfoil tube to reach her.

No, this feels beyond wrong...It feels like...

 

Like a lie

 

"Something strange is going on in this castle," Amber snapped suddenly to nopony in particular. She was staring at something beyond the kitchen door. A fire raged behind her amber eyes as she felt the spirit of adventure swell angrily within her. Her face was solid stone, but her mind was whirring frantically.

And I WILL find the truth...

 

 

Alright. What do all of you want today?" He asked Starchase, Midnight, Lektra, Caliber And Chrysteel while he grabbed some ingrediaemts to cook.

I'm here, too...

*whimper*

"It's not bad here. I don't see why we'd ever want to leave, all we need is here. And there's nowhere to go anyway." Starchase shrugged casually. "It's tough but it's home."

 

Wait, home? The word felt foreign to him, like it was a concept he couldn't grasp. It made him feel uneasy but the feeling passed as he smelled food. It smelled like, like...like what? It was on the tip if his tongue but it evaded him like it didn't want to be found and he didn't want to find it anyway.

[P-Jay 1,987]

caliber sat down at the table, with enough food to feed ten ponies. he then started eating it all at an alarming rate. "i found it strange, too." caliber said in between bites. "but, since we're alicorns, now, i guess we're royalty. call me Prince Caliber, the Wanderer." he smirked.

Chrysteel says, "I guess this power requires a calm mind. When I was panicking before I couldn't feel the power flowing through me."

 

Crysteel eats the offered pancakes and smiles, "Truely made with T.L.C. A good thing too. I always enjoy a good loving meal."

[AmberDust 1,118]

Amber looked warily at the other ponies feasting. Mind still whirring, she hesitated a moment before moving back to the table. They're all in pretty good moods, so maybe we should relax a bit before we get back into the thick of things, she decided to herself. She sat down next to "Prince" Caliber.

"I guess that makes me...Princess Amber Dust of...hmm." she paused to think. "...of the Valley of the North!" she hazarded. Amber smiled at the sound of the royal name. She knew she wasn't really a princess, but it was nice to pretend. She grinned at the others.

[LyraBae 82]

"Oooh, ooh!" Midnight piped up, while stuffing her mouth with pancakes, "I'm a princess too, I can be a princess!" She scarfed down the breakfast, she was sure hungry all right. She poured some syrup on it, then finished her plate. "Can I have some more, please?" she asked, hungrily.

[Midnight_Aurora 571]

Chrysteel seems to calm down more but the others can tell she isn't liking the fact of her true self being altered. She finished her meal quickly and asks Lektra, "Hey Lektra, What happened to that metallic friend of yours? I haven't seen her around recently."

 

Chrysteel knows she may be touching a very touchy area but she was curious. New memories and old ones blend into something she is unfamiliar with.

 

She knows once she is able to achieve her full power, she might be able to activate her evolution Chrysalis for a temporary one and break some hold on her true self.

 

'Love reserves and power level must equal a certain value. Also need a bond with the one to whom I will protect. If I can befriend those around me the bond to protect will form. Then all I would need is the power level and love stores past that basic value. If I can achieve double this value, then I can evolve permanently.' She thinks to herself trying to calculate the needed variables for the Evolution Chrysalis.

The idea of being royalty was mind boggling. A prince. An actually member of royalty. Ponies bowed to them, look up to them. What's not to like?

 

"What are we up to today?" He asked them. He felt like he knew and it was something important but thinking was hard and made him dizziness. Besides if he couldn't remember it probably wasn't important.

[Midnight_Aurora 571]

Chrysteel looks to storm and asks, "What do you think? What should we do today?"

 

Chrysteel gives the others a look that asks the same question to all of them but she directed it to Arcing Storm. She felt he would know the answer better then her. She waits to hear his response.

"I have to agree with that. There has been some foes we have dealt with." Storm nodded while still cooking the big breakfast for everypony, but most of it is for Caliber and his suddenly huge apatite.

 

 

 

"Oh, thank you,"

 

 

 

"No problem, Amber." Storm smiled in response as he continued with cooking breakfast. The amount of spells and effort he put into making breakfast for them was amazing, even when he was talking and replying to them, his concentration with the levitation spells didn't phase.

 

 

 

"Did anypony find it weird, that those ponies bowed to us?"

 

"I found it strange, too. But, since we're alicorns, now, I guess we're royalty."

 

 

 

"That is true. Those stallions were guards for us... Although I'm not sure why Celestia sent them to protect us. I mean we are the Elements, we can protect ourselves, right?" Said Storm with a confused expression on his face, only to shrug it off soon after.

 

 

 

"Truely made with T.L.C. A good thing too. I always enjoy a good loving meal."

 

 

 

"Thanks for the praise, but T.L.C?" Storm had never heard Chrysteel used that acronym before, thus making him confused again... No, curious would be the better term.

 

 

 

"Can I have some more, please?"

 

 

 

"Of course you can." A few more plates of pancakes was put on the table. They were for everypony of course, as he found out that they liked them more than everything else, except for Caliber who was eating everything Storm put onto the table.

 

 

 

"What are we up to today?"

 

 

 

"Hm..." Storm hummed to himself as he tried to remember the schedule. "If no monsters or any threats pop up, we are free the whole day, actually. We have already trained yesterday." He replied after thinking for a while.

 

 

 

"What do you think? What should we do today?"

 

 

 

"I'm not sure to be honest, Do you have any suggestions?" Storm asked Chrysteel in return. "For me personally, I'd go fly around for, you know, exercise and probably read some books while lying on the clouds. The weather doesn't look bad today."

Chrysteel smiles, "Sounds romantic. Maybe I join you?"

 

Chrysteel seems to calm some more. She looks to Arcing Storm and asks, "How do you fly so fast? I feel I am always left lacking, to be honest. I just want to see the truth. Love and hope in all things. it feels as if I know them. As for the TLC thing, it means Tender Love and Care. Anything made that way never tastes bad with me. I look beyond the physical and see what lays inside. True self shouldn't be hidden. It should be embraced."

 

She awaits his response for her asking to join him.

"Sounds romantic. Maybe I join you?"

"Sure, I don't mind. You can tag along." Storm answered with a smile as he finished cooking up the feast which is supposed to be their breakfast. He grabbed a plate of pancakes and added some honey onto the pancakes, starting to eat them.

Storm listened to her while eating his breakfast before answering her question. "That is quite a long story... To keep it short, I have always wanted to be a Wonderbolt so I trained myself to be as fastest as I can possibly be." He stopped a bit to drink some apple juice and resumed talking. "That is a nice way to see food and well, everything else."

[P-Jay 1,987]

caliber completely lost it, and burst out laughing. "protect me?" he looked at the guards. "if the day ever came that i would need to be protected, i doubt these guards could do the job." he looked at them, and they stiffened. "considering how strong i am, of course. an enemy stronger than me? im already better than these guys!"

[Midnight_Aurora 571]

Chrysteel says, "Caliber, please calm yourself. That is just their job. They are strong in their own way. As we all are. Your love for your sowrdsmanship is prof of your heart's desire."

 

Chrysteel finally reveals why she scans the hearts of others. To help them when she feels they need the help, even if they don't feel said need.

"So it is your heart's desire to be the best you can be and you train yourself to that end. An exceptional trait to have. For me love and hope. That is all I need and the power will come to those who have it. A love to protect and a hope to drive away fear."
