The Dark vs. The Light

[Aureity 3,055]

Twilight looked up from the pile of books again, surprised. "Oh don't worry, they're not going to-". The books toppled to the ground with several loud crashes. Twilight emerged from the pile a few seconds later, disgruntled. "Fall over..."

"So, how can I help you today?" she asked.

[Strong Hooves 289]

Static looked at the worried Winter and shook his head, "I am fine, the storm cloud worked wonders, now Im good as new!" to prove his point, Static stood up tall, making a powerful pose as he did. He then looked to Colt, "Yeah... that was me... sorry about that by the way. Quick question, do any of you know anypony that is at least close to Celestia? Perhaps they should be the one I speak with first".

[deprecated 199]

"I think Twilight Sparkle writes to her," Winter started, pointing to the Library, "She lives in there!"

[Strong Hooves 289]

"Perfect! Thank you so much, you have been a great help" Static told Winter as he smiled warmly at her, then took of speedily toward the library, sparks of electricity trailing off him as he flew, he landed in front of the library, knocking on the door and waiting.

(Seeing as how RD and AJ left before Static did, I'll say they're in the library already and skip them entering since you're here now)

 

"Come on girls, help me pick up these..ugh..books," groaned Twilight Sparkle, dumping a pile of the fallen books on the table. "If Celestia sees the mess I've made of the library she entrusted to me, I'm doomed!"

"Oh, ​ come on," Rainbow Dash sighed. "You know the Princess won't do that. Chill out." She lazily grabbed a few books from the ground and threw them randomly on the shelves.

"Ya'know, this would be a lot faster if I could just kick em all back onto the shelves. Whaddya say, Twilight?" Applejack pleaded.

"NO WAY!"

Somepony knocked loudly on the door. "Oh no! What do I do? The library's a mess, I can't let someone see this," groaned Twilight. "Dash, go distract them or something while I get Spike to help me clean up!" She began throwing books back onto the shelf with super speed.

Dash flew out of the window to see who exactly the visitor was. "What!" Her jaw dropped. "Not you again! The library's closed at the moment, sorry. Come back again another time."

 

(I wasn't actually planning that, but realized with all the books on the floor, it's totally what Twilight would do :S)

Great... her again, "Look, I dont really understand why you dislike me so, if you wanted a thank you, then thanks you really helped me out, perhaps if you had stayed a little longer than half a second you wouldve heard me say thanks. Anyway, this really cant wait, I need to see Twilight Sparkle, I was told she has connections with the princess. This meeting with her is VERY important, important as in what information I have involves the fate of Equestria itself, so until I get my message across I am not gonna leave this spot". As if to prove his point, Static sat down, intent on staying as long as he has to".

[Sunrise Song 14]

Sheesh. You would think after 15 years, she'd be better at getting these books organized. But, she's still getting more volumes from both Celestia and Luna on a nearly weekly basis, so..."Twilight, it's a good thing I was here...otherwise you'd have been buried alive in tomes of knowledge, with another dandy bump on that head of yours."

 

Twilight was too busy to acknowledge Sunny right away, doing the best she could to get the library organized. "Ohh, this is awful...just look at this mess, and now we have an uninvited guest...why can't libraries be quieter?"

 

"Yeah...what are Applejack and Rainbow Dash doing here, aside from Dash licking her wounds after getting passed a pegasus seven years older than her?"

 

< tag >

[Aureity 3,055]

Rainbow folded her arms across ehr chest. "I can't let you in until they've finished doing what they're doing in the library. It's not even my decision, a friend needs help and I'm not letting anypony in until it's done." Although I think she's being rather paranoid, Dash thought to herself. There were a few loud thuds and a couple of exasperated yells that shook the library/tree. "Uhh..." said Dash. "Everything's going on fine in there!"

 

The door banged open on its hinges, and Twilight Sparkle emerged triumphantly, disheveled and out of breath. "Done! Welcome...to...the library..." she panted. "Can I help you today?"

 

"Whoa, nelly!" said Applejack, jumping in surprise from inside the library as she noticed Suuny for the first time. "Since when did you get here?"

[Strong Hooves 289]

Static breathed a sigh of relief as Twilight walked out of the library, "Miss Twilight I presume? Allow me to introduce myself, my name is Static, is there anyplace that we can speak? I understand that you have connections with Princess Celestia, and I have urgent news that she must hear ASAP"

[Skullbuster 1,906]

Colt followed the pony to the library, that pony would still need a way to get to canterlot

[Aureity 3,055]

"I'm not really that special," said Twilight awkwardly. "I'm just Celestia's student, here in Ponyville to do research on the magic of friendship. But if that's enough of a connection, of course I'll help, where do you want to go?"

[Strong Hooves 289]

"Did you not just hear me? I need an audience with the princess, information that I know of could hold the very fate of Equestria itself!" Static was beginning to get agitated, he had wasted enough time as it was...

[Aureity 3,055]

Twilight shrugged. "Then write a letter. Here. " She magicked over a piece of parchment and a quill. "Spike will send the paper when you're done. If you're lucky, she'll reply immediately."

[Strong Hooves 289]

Static took the quill, still thinking that these mares didnt get the seriousness of the situation, he began to write,

Dear Princess Celestia,

I know I am the last pony you would expect to hear from, it has been much too long since we last spoke. I desperately need an audience with you, for I am writing you today regarding information on a matter we both thought to be long over. I do not want to say too much right now, but what I can say is, Darkstrike has returned.

 

Sincerely, Static

P.S. Sorry I took so long to write back

 

Static set down the quill when he finished, giving the letter to Spike who sent it off with a breath of green flame. Static then sat down, waiting for Celestia's reply...

[Sunrise Song 14]

Some things never change, I guess. Twilight's still being Twilight...she needs to be a little less frustrated with ponies when she's having a hard day. Maybe take her to Fluttershy's for some meditative breathing exercises. She needs to manage her stress before it ends up being her undoing.

 

"Twilight...you really should learn more about being patient. I'm Sunrise Song...and what is your name, sir...and may I also ask...where is it that you came from? I've been here for quite some while and I've never seen you around before here in Ponyville. You seem...bothered by something."

[Skullbuster 1,906]

Colt walked into the library and said to static "as soon as your ready to go, ill take you to canterlot"

[Strong Hooves 289]

Static looked to Sunrise, nodding his head respectfully, "My name is Static... I uh... dont really have a home to speak of. And yes... I am." Static then looked to Colt, "Thank you, I just need to wait on the-" but he was cut short as Spike let out a belch of fire in which a scroll materialized into view. Static took it and began to read it quietly:

 

My young friend Static,

It is good to have finally gotten a letter from you once more, if only they were under better circumstances. If what you say is true, then you must come to Canterlot immediately, there will be an escort waiting for you at the palace gates, if you could, please get the bearers of Harmony to accompany you, Twilight Sparkle can help with notifying them. Please make haste, the more time that passes is more time Darkstrike has to regain his strength.

I will be anticipating your arrival,

Princess Celestia...

 

Static rerolled the scroll, "It seems I have an audience with her immediately. Miss Twilight, Princess Celestia told me that before I go to see her, that I must gather the bearers of Harmony and have them accompany me to Canterlot, she wishes that they be there as well. Can you help me to notify them so we can depart?"

 

(If you want I can take control of one of the bearers, I will also control Celestia and Darkstrike as well)

[Aureity 3,055]

(If you want, we still need a Rarity, Fluttershy, or Pinkie Pie)

 

"On such short notice?" Twilight asked, surprised. "Well, you heard the princess, girls...Pack your things." No sleep for me tonight...

"Awesome! I'll be right back," promised Rainbow Dash, zooming away towards Cloudsdale. Can't wait! I hope it's another adventure. Nopony beats Dash. Not Nightmare moon, not discord, nopony!

"Hey, wait just a darn minute," called Applejack after the fleeing blur of blue, which sped out of sight. "Ugh...I guess it's up ta me to go tell everypony else. Typical lazy Dash... I'll be back faster than ya'll can say 'Apple pie'!" Throwing open the door, she disappeared amongst the buildings of Ponyville.

[deprecated 199]

(I think I'll take Fluttershy and Pinkie)

 

Winter crept into the Library, as quiet as a butterfly. "Everything alright in here?" She asked after seeing a couple of ponies running out of the tree.

 

(I'm reply 69! :3)

[Skullbuster 1,906]

Colt looked at the pony that just came in "everything is fine, it turns out our friend here is a very important pony!"

[Aureity 3,055]

(Awrighty, we just need a Rarity then)

 

"Howdy, Pinkie," Applejack called, spotting her in the Cakes' shop. "Twilight says we all need to go down to Canterlot, on some, uh, official business of some sort. Can ya get ready as soon as possible?"

[Strong Hooves 289]

Static was surprised when he figured out Twilight and the other two were bearers, "How long does it take to get there?" he asked Twilight. Upon hearing Winter, he turned to her, with a smile he said, "Everything is fine, thank you miss... uh... Im not sure I caught your name". He then turned to Colt, "Well... Im not all important" he muttered modestly...

 

(I will take rarity)

Meanwhile, Rarity was busy in her boutique, finishing an order for her Canterlot friend Fancy Pants. "There, all finished" she said with a happy squeak, "Oh this gown will be a lovely gift for Fancy Pant's wife Fleur, now I just need to pack this and be on my way to Canterlot!" she used her telekinesis to neatly pack the gown into a gift box. She then proceeded to pack for her trip to Canterlot...

[Aureity 3,055]

Twilight smiled slightly at Static's surprise. "Oh, you didn't know? I'm the element of friendship. Rainbow Dash-" she indicated the window that Dash had just flown out of-"is the element of loyalty. And Applejack's the element of Honesty."

"Yeah!" Spike chimed in. "These girls are heroes! They helped save Ponyville twice from evil threats with the magic of friendship. They're amazing! Applejack, Fluttershy, Twilight, Rainbow, Pinkie...and Rarity." He swooned a little at the last word, and Twilight Sparkle rolled her eyes in an 'oh great' way.

 

(Rarity's not supposed to know yet, AJ and Rainbow are telling the others right now)

 

"Hey! Rarity!" Rainbow yelled cheerfully, barging in through the doorway. "Put down that frilly dress you're working on. There's something important we need to be doing in Canterlot, and we need to go-right NOW!" Emphasizing her point, she took off through the open doorway, the wind from her speed toppling one of the mannequins near the doorway.

 

Having left Pinkie Pie to prepare, Applejack galloped all the way to Fluttershy's cottage on the outskirts of Ponyville. "Wake up, Fluttershy," she called through the doorway, waiting for her to open it.

[Strong Hooves 289]

(Uhh you mean magic right? lol)

Static gave an impressed nod, "Seems like saving the world is a hobby of yours" he said jokingly, "Thats good, because I need all the help I can get"...

 

Rarity watched slightly surprised by Applejack's sudden appearance and departure, "Well... that was... odd" she put the mannequin back up and proceeded to pack, "Well seeing as the rest are going to Canterlot, I might as well make this delivery while we are there" she said with a smile. Once all her things were packed, she trotted off quickly for Twilights library...

(She didnt know, I made it that she was going to Canterlot anyways to deliver an order for Fancy Pants, and now she knows that the others are going lol)
