Author's Notes: This is a new story I was thinking of after I saw The final episode of Season 4 of MLP:FiM. The current chapter is just the transcript copied from the wiki and modified to have more life to the story. After this chapter the story will be much different. Also, I will still be working on An Honest Mother, I just didn't' have the time to get to it with school and everything. But now I am out of school and I plan on getting you a chapter of each story every 3-4 weeks. Hope you enjoy!
"I came as quickly as I could! Is something wrong? Is it Tirek?" Twilight worryingly asked. Princess Celestia sadly responds, "I'm afraid I put too much trust in Discord and the effect that friendship would have upon him. Discord has betrayed the ponies of Equestria and joined forces with Tirek". Twilight, slightly hurt by this, says "How could he do this?! I thought our friendship meant something to him! I thought he had changed". Princess Celestia continues, "Tirek has stolen enough magic that he now has the strength to steal flight as well. Without Pegasi to control the weather, there will be no rain in Equestria. There is word he has gone after Earth ponies as well. Without their strength, they will not be able to tend the land".
Princess Luna jumps in and adds "Ponies will no longer be in control of their world. That power will belong solely to Tirek". "There is no doubt that Tirek is after Alicorn magic. With Discord by his side, we will not be able to stop him from taking it", said Princess Celestia.
Princess Luna again adds, "Once it is in his possession, his power will know no bounds, and all hope will be lost". Princess Celestia took a deep breath,"But there is one solution. It is only by making this sacrifice that Equestria and the lands beyond it might be saved. We must rid ourselves of our magic before Tirek has the chance to steal it from us". Twilight gasps.
Princess Luna steps forwards, "Tirek is set on possessing Alicorn magic. When he comes for us, we cannot have what he is looking for". Twilight sighs and says "I'm more than willing to do my part and give up my magic". Princess Luna shakes her head, "You misunderstand. Our magic cannot just disappear into thin air. Somepony must keep it safe". Princess Cadance barely grins and says "That somepony is you, Twilight". Twilight confusingly asks "Why me"? Princess Celestia states "We do not believe that Tirek is aware that a fourth Alicorn princess exists in Equestria. If we transfer our magic to you, Tirek will not know where it has gone". Princess Cadance asks "Do you understand what we're asking of you"? Twilight pauses for a brief moment "...Yes. It's just... I'm only now learning how to control my own alicorn magic. To take on even more–". Princess Cadance cuts her off, "Twilight, you represent the Element of Magic. If there is anypony who can do this, it's you". Twilight confidently says "Taking on this task will be one of the most difficult things I'll ever do, but with the help of my friends–". Twilight is again cut off, Princess Celestia sadly says "I'm sorry, Princess Twilight, but you must keep your new abilities a secret. I fear that your friends being aware of your new power could put them at great risk. Do you still think you can take on this responsibility"? Twilight Sparkle replies "This is the role I am meant to play as a princess of Equestria! I will not fail to do my duty"! Princess Celestia nods her head, "Then we must begin at once". With that, Twilight prepared herself and Princess Celestia, Luna, and Cadence began to transfer over their Alicorn Magic to Twilight.
Out in the distant, while Discord and Lord Tirek were causing mischief, Discord shivers and quietly says "That can't be right". Tirek raises an eyebrow and asks "What can't be right"? Discord replies "Nothing. Carry on" and smiles.
The transfer was completed and the four princesses lie on the ground. Princess Celestia, out of breath, manages to say "It is done". Twilight could not believe it.
