CHAPTER ONE
ELDORE'S PARTY
In the begining, the time of the forging of the nineteen horseshoes, there were no laws, no code of order, and no peace. Many say thats why the horseshoes were forged, but others said it was for the selfesh of the bearers. Three were giving to the Elf-ponies, beautiful and immortal, seven, to the Dwarf-ponies, whos mines made for most of the gems today, and nine to the Earth-ponies, whom craved power over everything else. But the one horseshoe, the one horseshoe, forged in secrecy, by the mighty Discord, in the hellfire of Mt Doom, hed the upmost power of them all. Soon, the great battle of Mordor had begun. Dwarf-ponies fighing alondside Elf-ponies in a battle for the fate of Middle-Equestria. Orcs, Gobblins, Trolls, and many other of hell's nastiest monsters, fought along side Discord's army of creatures, eyes shining with hopes to defeat their enemy and taking control of Middle-Equestria. But the allince of the Dwarf and Elf-ponies were too strong for them. Victory was close at hoof, until Discord took the battle to new limits. With the one horseshoe at his disposal, Discord slaughtered them. But the Elf-pony lord did not fall so easily. Taking with him nothing but a sword, he dashed into battle with Discord. Blood was spilled, too much blood, and Discord had the Elf-pony cornered. Discord steped on the Elf-pony's sword and shattered it into five pieces. Discord's fatal mistake was getting too cocky. The Elf-pony took the largest part of the shatterd sword (the handel and the chipped blade) and sliced Discord's hand clean off. The horseshoe melted away the discarded hand and landed on the stone underhoof. Discord yelled in pain before, he too, fell to the cold stond ground. Discord, was no more. Taking the horseshoe in-hoof, the slayer of Discord travled the world and defeated anypony who opposed him. But, in time, the horseshoe betrayed him to a battle he could not win. The horseshoe had a mind of its own, carying the spirt of Discord along with it. Soon it reached a river, in one of the twelve Misty Mountains. History became legend, legend became myth, and myth, became bed time stories. Then, the horseshoe found a new master, a creatue called Spike, whom it possessed and led to mental illness. Several years later, the horseshoe made its move, it escaped Spike's cluches. Who was to think that a hobbit-pony would be the one to discover it, and take it back to the shire?
THE SHIRE, HOBBIT-PONYTON
SIXTY YEARS LATER
Scootaloo sat under a big oak tree, reading her book about her uncle's travles to and from the Shire. Although there may have been some unclear parts, it was a good tale! But that was not ther reason she was under the tree, no, Scootaloo was waiting for her friend-and wizard-Twilight the purple. Not soon after Scootaloo finished the chapter in witch her uncle barley escapes Warg-wolves and Goblins, she heard a quiet trot, along the walking path to her left. Putting the bookmark into her pocket, she raced over to the walking trail and there stood a unicorn dressed in a black cloak and pointed hat, while she held in hoof a large staff (about a foot taller than she was, on all fours) with small, thick branches on the top. "My, my, you're awfully late." Scootaloo said matter-o-factly. "A unicorn is never late, or early, she shows up exactly when she wants to." Twilight said, while glancing her eyes at the young pegasus. A short moment of slience is broken with a chuckle from Scootaloo, then Twilight, witch is quickly turned into a laugh. Scootaloo jumped on the unicorn and embraced her in a deep hug. "It's so good to see you, Twilight!" exclamed an overexcited Scootaloo. The two began to walk down the path, towards Scootaloo's Hobbit-pony hole. "You know, you've been labled as the offical disturber of the peace," Scootaloo told he purple friend. "Is that so?" Twilight saked her, with a glint of humor in her voice. "Yes, us Hobbit-ponies were very quiet, non-adventurous ponies, untill you showed up." Scootaloo informed the unicorn. "well..." Twilight said, looking around, seeing sevreal Hobbit-ponies were giving her dirty looks, or slimply scoffing. Where as the colts and a fillies gathered behind Scootaloo and Twilight and cheered "Twilight is back! Fireworks! Twilight, the fireworks!" But, Twilight continued to walk onward. The children began to complain, "Awwww, come on Twi!" But the unicorn continued to walk. But suddleny, the bag Twilight had been carrining on her back flung open, and at least twenty fireworks shot up and spirled into the air before exploding into a collage of colors, ilumating into the reflections of the puddles on the ground, and the children cherred: "YAY! Thank you, Twilight! Your the Best unicorn ever!" Scootaloo chuckled at this, for she too, idlized Twilight as the best unicorn to ever live. Before midday, the two reached Scootaloo's Hobbit-pony hole. "Twilight, im glad your back." Scootaloo said as she ran off to a clearing where other Hobbit-ponies were setting up a large party. "As am i, Scootaloo. as am i." The unicorn responded with a sigh. The magical pony walked up to a fence blocking the entrance to the Hobbit-pony hole and chuckled at the sign nailed into the gate post. 'no visitors prmitted beyond this point. Thank you. -Eldore' Tapping the gate with her staff, it magicly flew open. Twilight walked up onto the porch and knocked her hoof aginst the door. A voice came from inside: "Go away! I can't have, nor do i want any relitives or dwarves looking for a bite of bread!" Twilight chuckled, then what about an old friend?" The door opened to reveal the smiling face of a senior Hobbit-pony. "Twilight!" Eldore ran forward and hugged Twilight. "Do come in! i'll make you tea, do you want crumpits to go along?" The happy Hobbie-pony asked while scooting over to his kitchen. "No, tea will be fine, thank you!" Twilight responded, crouching down to avoid hitting her head aginst the celling. "Ive a lot to do, you know! Parties, and cooking, and book wrighting! Oh my!" Eldore said with a grin. Setting her staff and hat down, Twilight moved into the kitchen, where Eldore stood pouring tea into two small cups. Twilight used her magic to levitate the cup to her mouth, and said, "eleventy-five, yes?" "Indeed!" The Hobbit-pony responded. "Onehundred and fifteen birthdays, but why here? I want to go see the mountains again! The mountains, Twilight!" "Well, I, for one, am not stopping you!" Twilight told her friend. "I know that, but it's these damned relitives, Scootaloo! Look at her! She'de forget her wings if im not here to give 'em to her!" Exclamed Eldore. "But she needs to learn. I plan on taking a vacation. A very, permanent vacation. One I do not intend on returning from. As a matter of fact, I wont." An hour passed, and the sky was bright with dusk. The Hobbit-ponies were putting the finishing touches on the party, while Eldore and Twilight were sitting on top of Eldore's home, smoking pipes. Eldore blew a ring of smoke, while Twilight blew a green pagisus threw Eldore's ring, causeing both to disolve. "This will be a night to rember Twilight, just you wait and see." Eldore wispered to her friend.
The air was filled with laughter, and the ground was littered with dancing Hobbit-ponies. In the corner of the dance clearing, Scootaloo was trying to get her friend to dance. "Come on, Applebloom! Cant die 'till you do it!" Scootaloo coated. "Well, I will do it on my eleventy-fith birthday." Applebloom remarked. "But then you'll be old! Come on!" Laughing, Scootaloo pulled her friend up off her seat and pushed her into a young, handsome Hobbit-pony. The two blushed, but soon danced, like all the other Hobbit-ponies. Scootaloo chuckled and looked over to see two Hobbit-ponies runing away with a large firework in their hooves. Twilight was telling a story to the young Hobbit-ponies, and took no notice of the thieves. Scootaloo was walking towards where the two were headed, but could go no further, due to the firework rocketing off the ground, zooming into the air, and exploding in the air. the debrie from it though was a tad bit small, for such a big firework. But then it happend, the remaining bits of firework formed a shape of a dragon! it soared into the sky, noesed its way down, and began dive-bombing the party. Panic and chaos erupted from around Scootaloo, and all she could do was watch in horror. When the dragon was nearly touching the ground, it zoomed off to the right and soared into the cloudes, before, it to, exploded into the most beiutiful fireworks display you, and any Hobbit-pony have ever seen! (Untill this day, of course) Scootaloo heard a voice behind her: "Let's get another one, ey, pipsqueak?" "Indeed sweetie belle" But their fun was interupted by Twilight. "Well, well, well, Sweetie belle and Pipsqueak. I shuld have known." The unicorn said aloud draging the two Hobbit-ponies to a dish washing center. Crices avoided, all the Hobbit-ponies around Scootaloo were chering and claping and stomping there hooves. "Hobbit-ponies of Hobbit-ponyton!" Cried Eldore, happly. "Today marks my elevnty-fith birthday!" (The Hobbit-ponies cheered) "You have all been very kind to me, Scootaloo, and all the other Hobbit-ponies! And that is why i know you will not be to alarmed to know-you being the acepting Hobbit-ponies that you are-I will be taking a trip. A-a, another trip, one i will not return from." Eldore reached into his pocket, felt his horseshoe, and put his hoof on the curve, and said, in a hushed voice: "I bid you all farewell." Slipped on the horseshoe, and dissapered in front of every Hobbit-pony's eyes. Gaspes filled the air, and Scootaloo was baffled, how did Eldore dissaper? And where to? When Scootaloo looked over to her right, she noticed Twilight was gone to! How?
Meanwhile, Twilight was waiting inside Eldore's hole. Before long she saw him. "Ooh, very cleaver! Now every Hobbit-pony is looking fore you! Down there!" She said. Eldore replied: "Oh, who asked you? They would never let me go if they knew i wasn't intending on returning!" He slaped on his travle pack and boots, held his troting stick, and took a finall look at his maps. "Then what about the horseshoe? Will any Hobbit-pony know that, is missing?" Twilight chalanged. Eldore scoffed, "You...you want it for yourself! You can't have it! It's my own, my love, my precious!" he said viscusly. "Your precious? Eldore, your croupted, hoof it over..." Twilight said. "NO! My precious! MINE! You are a thief, Twilight, your trying to get it all to yourself!" Eldore bellowed. "ELDORE! DO NOT, AND I MEAN, DO NOT TAKE ME FOR A CONJUER OF CHEAP TRICKS! Im not trying to rob you! Im trying to help you." The unicorn broke his trance. "Oh Twilight! Im so sorry! I need this trip more than i thought! This confined space has gotton to my head! Well, i will not dilly-dally any longer! Adue!" Eldore said and moved to the door. "The horseshoe is still in your pocket." Twilight pointed out. "Oh..." Eldore took it out of his pocket, looked at it in his hoof and did not let go. "Eldore," Eldore looked at it again, and let it slide out of her hoof. It landed with a thud on the ground, and did not bounce. Eldore trotted out the door, but he paused, and turned around. "You know what, i know how to finish my book now. And he lived happly ever after." He told his friend, turning back around and walking off to the exit of the Shire. "Glad to hear it my friend, im glad to hear it."
