open Equestria's Darkest Hour

[Pinkie D Pie 1,036]

(Sorry, I was a little confused)

 

Shadow realized she was somewhere different now. "Oh look you made us lose the boo- nevermind seems you still have it." She said, a little angry with the fact she was stuck with this pony. "Seems we are suppose to work together, so are you done fighting me now?" She asked.

The dark aura teleporting the book and the ponies away had knocked Flaret out cold. She had lost a lot of energy and that little bit of dark magic had been enough to take her consciousness away, at least temporarily. She was still breathing softly. They were lucky that she had studied at Celestia's school for gifted unicorns, else the spells wouldn't even have had half of their impact. Not that it mattered, the book was gone...

[Flareon 151]

Nova Star was getting annoyed with everything she needed them to work together if they were going to break her free. The books aura came back "My name is Nova Star and I require the assistance of you two ponies to free me from my prison so that I can conquer Equestria. The Gala is coming up again soon free me then I will need a grand entrance and the two of you will be my knights."

 

Storm Fire stood up shaking in his knees the dark aura had sent chills up his spine he didn't know what was going on but he knew that he had to help in anyway possible. He looked around seeing that everyone was relatively ok but saw that the book everypony was fighting over was gone now. "What happened and where did the book go?"

Rarity stood up.

 

"I'm fine. Trust me Hank sweetie ..And the book...is gone. Well, nothing we can do about it. I'm going to prepare for the Gala tonight. It's noon, so we have some time to prepare." Rarity told to nobody in particular. She started to comb her mane again and put a clip into it's Grand Gala style.

Hank nods "well i hope you have fun tonight." he watches her "don't laugh at me but Rarity, i think i have a crush on you." He sighs blushing "I heard about the gala on my walking. I really wanted to go but i guess only the lucky ponies get to go." He looks at the ground "i also guess that the lucky ponies will get the ones they love." He puts his hood on "Can i see the dresses? I bet it looks amazing since its made by you."

"No." Butajiri said, holding the book to his chest. "I have no intentions to serve a master." He held the Banshee Shrieks blade to the spine of the book. "Fail to make this offer interesting to me and I will destroy the book. Do you really think a Yokai would serve as your lapdog?"

[Flicker Sweet 3,391]

Celestia appeared again, "I have noticed that several of my books have gone missing from the 'Dark Magic' section of my library, would anypony care to explain this to me?"

Once again she felt a strange presence within her voice, making it threatening and ominous

[Midnightive 458]

The Pink pony looked over at Celestia, she was pretty blank about her voice. But pinkie does follow the saying no sense no feeling, when it comes to anything that hurtful.

"Well a Library is a silly place to put books like that, all in alphabetical order!" she told Celestia.

She paused and looked around, "It might be just something to do with all the rukas that was going on just then!"

[Flareon 151]

Storm Fire could sense the anger in Celestia's voice he was surprised, he had heard that the princess was a kind and gentle pony. Her current tone was completely different "We're sorry your Highness but we haven't been near your library we've been trying to keep those two ponies from getting that book but you can see how well that went." Storm Fire lowered his head his wings drooping down along with his ears.

 

Nova Star started laughing in her sealed relm at Butajiri's attempts to threaten her book using what magic she could she created a claw of dark energy as it shot out of the ground the point of its claws all within instant kill zones of Butajiri. "I'll tell you what Imp for your spunk I'll let you have a city of your choice to call your own when i conqure Equestria." She waited for his response her magic coul easily protect her book from anything his sword could produce.

[Flicker Sweet 3,391]

Celestia saw fear in Storm Fire's eyes, this was getting out of hand. She lowered her head to hug the pony, "Don't be afraid of me my little pony, I am not angry with you," she stated, her voice like that of a mother talking to a filly, "I simply need to know what happened with that book..."

[Literally Snails 2,307]

She waited for his response her magic coul easily protect her book from anything his sword could produce.

 

The claw grabbed nothing but smoke. Above it, Butajiri hovered in his true, imp form. He was a dark shade of grey. His hoofs were replaced with claws. His head was round and had pointy, leathery ears and sharp fangs. Even his sword shrunk to a size small enough for him to carry. He was still clutching the book, though he was almost as small as it was. He poked the spine of the book with his sword and made a small gash in it. "It must be surprising to find out that Yokai are real in such a humiliating way. You've underestimated me. Now admit that you're sorry and I won't make this cut bigger!"

[Pinkie D Pie 1,036]

Shadow watched all of this with little interest. "Gosh could you keep it quiet over there, I am trying to concentrate here." She yelled. A star had formed under her in a circle. it started to glow, and soon surrounded her. When she came out of it, her eyes were glowing red. "Now if you would please hand be that bucking book so I can learn whatever secrets it posses, I would be very happy." She said

[Flareon 151]

Storm Fire felt safe in the hug that he got from Princess Celestia he wasn't sure what was going on in this town but he was liking it. This town was very exciting and he had a crush on a pony already. With the Gala coming up tonight there were a lot of things for everypony to worry about in the town now "Princess Celestia I know things are not looking well but I doubt that you shouldn't let anypony know what's going on."

 

Nova Star was getting angry with the imp that thought he could best her in any type of combat as well as magic. The pages of the book flipped and suddenly forced Butajiri to the ground and the book floated over to Shadow Star. "Here you go dear read the pages and learn the spell that's needed to break me from my acurssed prison. You Butajiri will follow me if you want the rest of the Imp population to survive I plan to make Equestria into a dark new world ruled by fear and dark magic."

[Literally Snails 2,307]

"I won't let you outshine me in my own show!" Butajiri wailed as he thrust The Banshee Shriek into the ground. Hundreds of Ghostly figures rose up from the ground around him and Shadow. The specters forms were contorted and made into solid walls with screaming faces. They created a solid cage that enclosed them both. "The Cage Of Hell!" he cried, "You and I are now surrounded by the screams of the damned made solid. Not even an A class can break these walls, so don't get any ideas. Give me that damn book!"

[Flaret 240]

Flaret, after lying on the ground for several minutes, finally woke up again. She blinked and slowly got up, still shaking. She looked at Celestia and heard her ask about the book. "I...I found it in the bookstore, the old one. It started talking, I tried to bring it to Twilight, but..." She gazed at the spot where the book and the two ponies had disappeared from. "I'm sorry..."

[Pinkie D Pie 1,036]

Shadow Smiled. "No escape did you say, you must not realize who I am." She said. A new shadow formed under her, and she fell into it, appearing on the other side of the wall. "Now let's just make sure he does not disturb our work." She said, and a shadow wrapped around her, surrounding her in a bubble. "Now then." She said, opening the book and starting to read it. She was looking for the spell to release this mysterious pony or being who seemed to have alot more power than her or the imp or whatever it was.

Celestia looked the pony up and down for any sign of deception, she found none........

"There is no need to apologize," she stated compassionately, "I would have done the same. But we must findthat book and either destroy it, or contain it. Who has it now?" Celestia made a strong effort to keep the aggression out of her voice this time.

[Flareon 151]

Nova Star chuckled at the two ponies fighting over the book she had picked the right ponies to help release her from her prison. "You Butajiri will have great power once I conqure Equestria I shall make you a sword that can never be stopped." Using her magic to hold the sword in front of him while Shadow read through the book.

 

Storm Fire wasn't sure what to do next he knew that the book took precidence but the Gala was going to be later tonight "Excuse me Princess but I believe keeping everypony safe for the Gala tonight would be the best choice we don't want everypony in a panic." His eyes caught sight of the blue and rainbow colored pony that he'd met earlier, she was now flying the sky trying to locate those that had taken the book. She was obviously in a hurry trying to find out who and where those two ponies had gotten so fast.

 

Rainbow Dash flew as fast as she could trying as hard as she could to find those two ponies, it was trueshe wasn't even part of the conflict that went on but she had seen what happened and had to help. "Come on Dash it shouldn't be this hard to find two ponies that could do creepy things like that." As she flew she was keeping an eye on the time while she watched Celestia talk with the other ponies tonight was the Gala and she was determined to make it into the Wonderbolts tonight.

 

(ok for anyone who hasn't seen yet in the OOC I will be taking up the role of RD as well since the player cast as her isn't posting or answering my messages)

Twilight was trotting inside the Everfree Forst, when her horn lit up.

 

"Ugh...Some sort of magical reaction?!"

 

Twilight let her horn lead her to where she was going, and it was to the edge of Ponyville. With two ponies..and a book. Twilight tried to get nearer, but her horn stayed put,

 

"So...I guess my horn wants me to spy on them or something?" Twilight asked herself, keeping her voice to the minimum. She hopped in a bush, peeked out, and started to observe.

[Pinkie D Pie 1,036]

The shadow dropped around Shadow Stalker and she fell to the ground. "So that's what I need to do." She said. She started to cast a spell, slowly, as using her power so much had worn her out. A few minutes later she finished. "It is done whoever you are." She said, passing out on the ground.

[Flareon 151]

Nova Star started to cackle the wallsof her prison began to crack and soon she would be free and Equestria would be hers to conqure and begin anew when she removed the ponies unworthy of staying in her new world from exhistance. "Rest dear Shadow Stalker there are things I must do to prepare, for tonight at the Gala no pony will be safe." The walls of the relm turned to ash as Nova Star stepped on solid ground for the first time in what felt like decades. She released a wave of dark energy shattering the pillars thathad surrounded her prison laughing "When she awakens sneak into the Gala and find me in the crystal tunnels under Canterlot then the three of us will make our play."

 

Storm Fire gave a sigh hoping Celestia would see reason in his words he unfolded his wings stretching them out a few feathers falling to the ground. He hadn't spent so much time on the ground in a while and it was starting to get to him "I'm going to go look in the sky as well two ponies looking is beter than only one." Storm took off pulling some goggles out of his jacket and was soon keeping pace with the blue pony he'd met before.

 

Rainbow Dash couldn't believe that there was someone keeping up with her this pony was something different his orange color made him stand out. "Just who are you anyway no ponies fast enough to keep pace with me?" Dash looked the pony over and noticed the badge with the school name and braging rights on it "No way you're the fastest pony in Ponyville or Equestria that title belongs to me, care to prove it?" Dash saw the pony nod and took off in one quick motion he had an hour to show up this pony.

Celestia looked the pony up and down for any sign of deception, she found none........

"There is no need to apologize," she stated compassionately, "I would have done the same. But we must findthat book and either destroy it, or contain it. Who has it now?" Celestia made a strong effort to keep the aggression out of her voice this time.

 

"I don't know... It just disappeared, I tried to keep it from them, but they didn't even lay their hooves on it, they just all disappeared..." She stretched her sore muscles. All this so shortly before the Gala too... She had aquired a ticket through her parents and they insisted that she should go. It would've been nice to if she liked gala's, but she didn't. That's what you got with rich parents.

[Mushy Giant Friend 206]

(Sorry that I haven't been posting much, but I wasn't sure what to post with all of this *Fracus* going on :L)

Spearmint had soon finished her deliveries and was at her house. She was completely oblivious to the commotion going on outside. She was very excited, however, as a few weeks ago, she had entered a competition to win a ticket to the Grand Galloping Gala, and she had won! She had a dress to wear too! She was still preparing though, after all, it was a big event!

[Literally Snails 2,307]

"I'm not helping you..." Butajiri said clenching his sword, "Unless I know this will make me famous. Is that clear?" He inspected the Banshee Shriek to make sure it was in perfect condition. He pushed the hilt and pummel back together, causing the fleshy pink substance to retract back into the handle; then he strapped it to his back again.

[kappa214 76]

Hank thought about it for a second. He really wants to go to the gala but he never got a ticket. Since he never stayed in one place. Princess Celestia is near him so why not give it a shot to get a ticket to the gala.

Hank walks up to Princess Celestia and bows.

"Princess i am here asking you if i can get a ticket to the Gala. I really want to go. So if you may can i get a ticket?"
