Misuki and Riku's Adventure to Ponyville
Hi there. So...I got this idea months after watching all of season 1 of MLP: FiM. I hope you all enjoy it. I'd like some feedback on how the first part is and if you'd like me to continue. Oh and one more thing: the story is in the perspective of Misuki. Just thought I'd make it similar to my original KH fan fic. Anyway, enjoy ^^
Part 1
I woke up in a daze, everything still a bit blurry and out of focus. For some reason…I didn't feel like I was myself anymore. As I was waking up, I couldn't figure out why. Maybe I was just dreaming. But I knew better than to come to that conclusion so quickly. No, this definitely wasn't a dream. How did I know? Because I was aware of my surroundings…and when I looked at my reflection in a nearby pond, I found that I wasn't who I was before I was knocked out. I had hooves, my body was purple and to top it off…I had a horn sticking out of my forehead. Yep…I was a unicorn. "What's going on here?" I examined myself, spinning around in circles until I fell back. I looked behind me and saw I had a picture of my keyblade on my flank. "Okay something is very wrong here." Walking with hooves wasn't that had to be honest. I actually enjoyed strutting around for a while until I saw Riku still passed out. "Riku, wake up! Come on, you've gotta see this!"
He was a unicorn like me, but with a white coat and his keyblade printed on him. No matter what form he was in, he always kept his looks. It wasn't long before he started to wake up with moans. "What time is it?" he asked, opening his eyes. The expression on his face when he saw me was just priceless. His jaw dropped to the ground as he quickly backed away until he fell backwards with his legs in the air, shaking from pure terror. "Who are you? What's going on here?"
"Riku, it's me; Misuki."
"M-Misuki?" He looked at me with a questionable look until he met my eyes and became convinced. "What's going on? Why are you…a unicorn?"
"Probably the same reason you're a unicorn." Shortly after I said that, he ran towards the pond and looked at himself and began gasping.
"Why are we like this! What kind of world is this?"
"Calm down, Riku!" I pulled Riku away from the water and clonked him on the head for him to focus on what I was saying. "Maybe we should look around this place. Something here doesn't feel right." After I said that, Riku and I found ourselves surrounded by Heartless. "Just as I thought." We summoned our keyblades , but they instantly fell to the ground since we lost our fingers.
"How are we supposed to fight if we can't pick up out weapons!"
I thought about it. I was able to control my keyblade with my heart, but wielding it normally was going to be tricky. "There's only one way I can think of to use it." I picked up my keyblade with my mouth, then rushed towards the Heartless and attacked five of them with one hit.
Riku glared at me. "We so have to get out of here before I go crazy." He bent down and grabbed his keyblade as Heartless closed in on him. He back-kicked one of them coming from behind him and then attacked the rest. In a matter of minutes, the Heartless were defeated.
I was able to reclaim some of the hearts that were released from the defeated Heartless. "If there are Heartless here, we need to stay and get rid of them."
"You two!" Riku and I were soon confronted by three stallions dressed in armor. "State your names."
"Umm…My name is Misuki, and this is my partner Riku." I introduced us. "You see, we're not exactly from this world and…"
"We know." One of the stallions said. "Our Princess used her magic to summon you here. But she miscalculated and had you teleported here. We apologize."
Riku and I looked at each other.
"Allow me to introduce myself: I am captain of the royal guard, Shining Armor. If you follow us, we'll take you to Princess Celestia."
We really didn't have much of a choice, so we went ahead and headed to the castle where their Princess waited. The city that surrounded the palace was magnificent and gleaming. My eyes almost fell out of my head.
"Welcome to Canterlot. This is the capital of Equestria."
"It so beautiful, isn't it Riku?"
"Yeah, reminds me a little of Ansem the Wise's castle."
He was right. Both castles were radiant.
"Welcome back, darling." A pink pony ran to Shining Armor and kissed him. She had a horn as well as wings. She looked our way and smiled. "You must be the warriors we were waiting for."
"This is my wife, Princess Cadence."
"It's a pleasure to meet you, princess." I said, bowing.
"Please, the pleasure is all mine."
"Misuki, Riku, Princess Celestia is waiting for you. Follow me."
We entered into the throne room to see a beautiful white pony sitting on a throne. Her rainbow hair flowed gracefully, covering one eye. She rose up and approached us. "Welcome Misuki and Riku. I've been waiting for you."
Riku and I bowed to her as she spoke. "We are honored to meet a princess. But tell me, when did the Heartless appear here?" I asked her.
"So these creatures are known as Heartless?"
"Yes, your highness." Riku chimed in. "They come from the Darkness of people's hearts. They go around stealing hearts to fill the emptiness they have in them."
"I see. Then it's a good thing I was able to summon you."
"When did they first appear?" I asked.
"If I recall, they first appeared on the castle grounds a few days ago. My sister was watching over the grounds and was attacked. If I hadn't come to her rescue, I don't know what would've happened. Anyway, I summoned you two here because you are the strongest warriors in your world."
Riku and I looked at each other shyly.
"I knew you could help us get rid of these Heartless with the weapons you wield."
"Yeah, but being in this form…it was difficult for us to fight." I chuckled under my breath.
The princess laughed at the way I had brought up our problem. "Don't worry. You'll get used to it quickly. The magic will come to you in due time. Right now, before you go out and fight the Heartless, I need the two of you to deliver something for me." Princess Celestia used her magic to summon a box before us. When she opened it, it revealed a crown and five necklaces. "These items are known as the Elements of Harmony. Six special ponies represent the elements and can harness the power of these items."
"Let me guess: you want us to find them?" I asked.
She nodded, setting the box in front of us. "Correct. I believe that the Elements will help vanquish these creatures."
"Princess Celestia, we give you our word that we will find the ponies that can wield these items." Riku chanted, bowing to her.
"Thank you. In order to bring the Elements of Harmony together, you must first find a unicorn named Twilight Sparkle."
"Twilight Sparkle?" I questioned.
"She is a very special unicorn and my best pupil. If you find her, you'll find the other ponies that represent the elements."
"Where can we find Twilight?" I asked.
The princess gave me a bag and put the box into it before putting the bag over my back. "There is a small town called Ponyville. She lives in a library there. My men will take you there." She knelt down and dubbed us a safe trip. "All of Equestria is counting on you."
"We won't let you down, Princess Celestia. Come on, Riku."
Some time had passed, and we were already over Ponyville. The Pegasus guards landed us in the center of the town, neighing as we exited the wagon. "Thank you kind sirs." They nodded their heads before taking off back towards the castle.
"Okay, let's head to the library." Riku suggested.
"But which way is it? Maybe it's best to ask someone for directions." I looked towards a pink pony with very curly hair that was walking in our direction. She stopped in front of us just in time for me to ask her some questions. "Excuse me, but we were wondering if you could…" Before I could finish, the pony inhaled gallons of air, her eyes consumed her head as she dashed off past me in a cloud of smoke.
"Umm…what just happened?"
"Riku, you're asking the wrong pony." I shrugged off the random moment and focused on their mission. "Maybe we can find another pony to ask." We walked through the town and finally came up on a magenta-colored pony with flowers on her flank. "Pardon us." I managed to get her attention.
"Is there something I can help you with?" she asked use.
"Yes, we were looking for a pony named Twilight Sparkle. We were told she lives in a library in this town. Could you point us in the right direction?"
"Of course! Just go down this street and the library will be right there in front of you. You can't miss it."
"Thank you so much. Sorry to bother you."
"Oh, no trouble. I'm glad I could help."
We finally stood in front of a tree with windows and a sign at the front with a picture of a book on it. The tree looked like an oak tree, but that wasn't important right now. I walked up to the entrance and knocked three times. "Hello, is anypony home?"
The door opened a minute later to reveal a small purple dragon with green scales. "Hi there! What can I do for you?"
'A world ruled by ponies and talking dragons? I don't know how much more of this I can take.' "Umm hi, we're looking for a pony named Twilight Sparkle. Princess Celestia told us we could find her here. It's important we speak with her."
"Oh, you must be Misuki and Riku. Princess Celestia sent a letter about your arrival not too long ago. Come in."
Riku and I steadily entered the library. The hundreds of books astounded me. I know it was a library, but still…Ansem had almost the same amount of books in his study. "So…where is Twilight?" Riku asked.
"She's at Zecora's place, picking up some herb remedies and ingredients. Oh, also my name's Spike! I'm Twilight's assistant. Just make yourself at home. Twilight should be home soon."
"Thanks." I walked around the library, reading the titles of all the books while Spike picked up some stray books on the ground and put them away.
Riku just trotted around impatiently, looking at himself all around. He was uncomfortable with his form, but he'll get over it soon enough.
"Hey, your cutie marks are weird. What exactly are your talents?" Spike asked us.
"We're keyblade warriors in our world." Riku answered. "We keep the balance of Light and Darkness and fight off the Heartless; the creatures attacking Ponyville. They once invaded our world, and we had to fight all of them."
"Just the two of you?" he asked, balancing about twelve books in his hands.
Riku nodded. "We may not look it, but both of us are tough when we fight together."
"Wow, talk about teamwork."
"Spike, I'm back!" The door opened by itself. No…it was opened by magic. When the door fully opened, a purple unicorn about the same color as me but a few shades lighter. She stopped at the door when she saw me and Riku standing in the center of the library. "Oh, I didn't know we were having company. Who are they, Spike?"
Spike grabbed a scroll and gave it to the pony. "The princess sent this just after you left."
She used magic to take the scroll, open it and read it to herself.
Well, there you have it. For the record I have a twisted mind that comes up with the most randomest things and this is what comes out. But... in the end, I love my way of thinking and my weirdness. I wear it with pride. R&R
