Greetings, one and all! And welcome to the first chapter of Quest For Equestria: Harmonic Heroes. I hope your going to enjoy it and now for a disclaimer. As always, I do not own any of the characters except my OC's, also the ponies are going to be humanized but they still contain Cutiemarks, horns/wings, also I gave the Equestrian species different names. Now on to the story.
So a long ass time ago, in a galaxy far far away. There where two magic princesses, together they controlled the cycle of day and night. Ruling over the kingdom of Equestria. But the younger sister, who is way cooler than the older one but we will get to that later, gained an inferiority complex. Because nobody was ever awake during her half of the day, she was like "Screw this! I'll make it night all the time!" and the other sister was like "Haha no!" and uses a bunch of MacGuffins, to put her in a time-out on the moon for a thousand years. The older sister took full control and all their subjects worshiped her, for fear of being locked away into something more degrading.
That's how the story go, if I remember correctly, I wasn't really listening when they told me it. Anyways, I took enough of your time already, there are more interesting things going on then my rambling.
No two Worlds are the same... Neither are two people. Now enjoy this odd mix.
In the skies above Equestria, a girl of about 16 years, her hair contained all the colors of the rainbow. On her feet were two red running sneakers, on her lower body she was dressed in black running shorts, while on her lower body she had a cyan hoody on as a similar colored wings sprouted out from her back.
This girl's name is Rainbow Dash, the fasts flyer in all of Equestria. She was just doing her rounds, as she was in charge of the weather around Ponyville. Nothing seemed out of the ordinary until something that could best described as a grey tear opening a few clouds away from her. "What was that?", Rainbow thought to herself before she decided to investigate.
When she arrived at said cloud, Rainbow was surprised when she saw a young man, not much older than herself, laying face-down on it. Staying hidden behind another cloud, Rainbow started to observe him, the young man had spiky black hair, dressed in a blue shirt under a black hoody while on his lower body he was dressed in blue jeans. Rainbow was slightly startled when the boy let out a groan, before he slowly opens his eyes, revealing that they were amber in color. As the young man sat straight up, he let out a yawn looking down. "This is new." the boy said to himself as he stood up. Rainbow wondered what this boys problem was until she noticed it, he had no wings and yet he was able to stand on a cloud.
In Equestria you had three species, four if you counted the princess. First you had the Terra's, they had a close connection to the earth, possessed superior physical strength and resistance. Second you had the Magi, they are capable of commanding the arcane forces of magic itself. Thirdly there were the Seraph, they could control the weather, fly and were the only one capable of standing on clouds.
"Then what is he?", Rainbow muttered, as the young man was looking frantically around his surroundings. "Wait, where are my friends?", the young man said out loud before raising to his feet. "McGrath! Griffifth! Phoenix! Sutakira! Anyone!?" shouted the boy not noticing that Rainbow was flying up behind him
"Are you okay?", Rainbow asked, as the man turned around to face her, his amber eyes widened as he scratch the back of his head. "...Now I have seen everything. A girl, with rainbow mane and wings...", he muttered before adding, "Awesome!". Rainbow tilted her head a bit as she studied him, she didn't seem to recognize him, "Your new around here aren't you?" Rainbow asked as she landed next to him. The young man crossed his arms, as he took a look around before turning back to her, "I'm not even sure were I am."
"Your in Ponyville, the perfect place for Terra's, Seraph and Magi. Though technically speaking, your in the skies above Ponyville.", Rainbow answered. Uncrossing his arms the young man replied, "I see... Oh, I haven't introduced myself. My name is Skywalker, Jason Skywalker. Whats your name?", he stuck out his hand. Rainbow gave a cocky smirk, "I am Rainbow Dash, the one and only!", she said giving him a firm handshake, "Not only am I the fastest flyer in all of Equestria, but I practically sweat coolness."
"That doesn't sound gross at all. Oh, have you seen any of my friends?", Skywalker asked. Rainbow falls back on the cloud, thinking about it before replying, "Can't say that I have." Skywalker dropped his head in disappointment, Rainbow couldn't help but feel sorry for him, he looked like a lost puppy. Before looking up again "That's too bad.", Skywalker said, while thinking about what do to next, he jumps off the cloud, making Rainbow look shocked as she looks over the cloud and sees Skywalker standing unharmed on the ground.
"Thanks anyways! I'm going to check out Ponyville. See you around, Rainbow Dash!", Skywalker shouted to her before running off, leaving a trail of dust behind him. Rainbow looked on with an open jaw, quickly regaining her composure she flies after Skywalker.
Meanwhile, in Ponyville, another young man much smaller than Skywalker, with brown hair stood on a roof, his emerald green eyes scanning the surroundings. He was dressed in a dark coat under a white v-neck shirt, black jeans on his lower body. "What kind of village is this? It's all colorful and fluffy and cute, just like home. I hate it already.", he muttered to himself, he jumps off the roof, landing with a soft thud on the ground and head towards the largest building in town.
As he enters the main hall, which is being decorated for an celebration of sorts. He notice a young woman with purple hair, dressed in a white blouse, black skinny jeans and black pumps using putting up the decorations with some sort of magic. The thing that stood out most about her was a small horn sticking out of her head.
"Great, it's an Orge from Power Rangers Wild Force...", the young man thought as he walked towards the girl while looking around. "Just a moment, please. I'm 'in the zone' as it were." the girl said, not looking back at the young man.
The young woman uses her magic to move more decorations around as she mumbles to her self "Oh, yes. Sparkle always does the trick, does it not? Why, Rarity, you are a talent.", she places the finishing touches on the decorations before she turn around to greet the young man. "Now, how can I help youuuu!?", her mouth drops opens as she gazes upon the young man.
"Are you okay?" the young man asked irritated. The young woman ignored his question and instead started to rant, "Oh my stars. Darling, what ever happened to your coiffure?", The young man stroked his hair before replying "Oh, you mean my hair? Well, it's a long story, which involves the escape from my mothers womb. I just need to ask you something and then I'll be out of your hair." The young woman places a hand over her mouth, "Out of my hair? What about your hair?", she runs around the young man as she start to push him into another room. The young man began to struggle "Wait, where are we going? Help!"
A little later, in a dressing room. The girl had succeeded to pin the young man into a chair and force him into a make over. As the girl tried different styles on his hair, with the young man growing more irritated by the minute. "No. No. Uh-uh. Too green. Too yellow. Too poofy. Not poofy enough. Too frilly. Too shiny. Now go on, my dear. You were telling me who you are and where you're from." asked the girl as she sized up his upper spikes with magical measuring tape. "My name is McGrath and I'm from... from Twiy Town." the young man answered annoyed as he tried to fight off another measuring tape.
The girl smiled from ear to ear, "Huh? Twiy Town? Oh, I am so envious. The glamour, the sophistication. I have always dreamed of going there. I can't wait to hear all about it. My name is Rarity by the way."
"That's great, now to answer my other questions..." McGrath tried to ask but Rarity ignored him as she cuts him off, "Rubies? What was I thinking? Let me get you some emerald, they'll fit perfectly with your eyes." as she leaves the room in a hurry. McGrath thinking to himself "Quick, before she decides to dye my hair a new color!", rips of the apron off, standing up and racing to the door.
Meanwhile, in the outskirts of town, another young man has crash landed into the ground. He wakes up with his face still in the dirt "It's a good thing I'm Kyle Phoenix... Or that might have hurt me.", he muttered to himself as he stands back up and takes a quick look at his surrounding, the first thing he notice is that everything is more colorful and cuter. "Either I'm in a World filled with talking ponies owned by a toy company or I'm in hell. And knowing my luck..." Phoenix said to himself before noticing a blond girl with her hair in a tail, a cowboy hat on her head, an orange daisy dook on her toned body while wearing denim short and cowboy boots, while kicking an apple tree as she made an loud "YEE-HAW!"
Phoenix pinched the bridge of his nose "What did I say?" walks over to the girl putting up his most charming smile, he knew how to talk to girls. Phoenix extended his hand as a sign of greeting "Good afternoon, beauty. My name is Kyle Phoenix...", he started but is suddenly interrupted as the girl as she wildly shakes his hand.
"Well, howdy-do, Mister Phoenix.", the girl said cheerfully, "A pleasure making your acquaintance. I'm Applejack, but everybody calls me AJ. We here at Sweet Apple Acres sure do like making new friends." letting go of his hand which still shakes, Phoenix was forced to grab his on hand to calm it down. "So, what can I do you for?", she looks at him with a big smile.
Phoenix cleared his throat before continuing "Ahem... Well, I just arrive from a other World with four others. Do you have any idea where they are?... Or where I am would also help...", Applejack picked up an apple and took a bite out of it, "Well you are in Ponyville, but I have no idea where your friends might be. They might be at the Summer Sun Celebration. I'm in charge of the food.", she explained as she swallowed her food.
"You're in charge of the food?" Phoenix asked, the cowgirl, put out her chest proudly. "We sure as sugar are. Would you care to sample some?" Phoenix shook his shoulders "Well, as long as it doesn't take too long."
Applejack quickly tingled a Triangle before shouting "Soup's on, everybody! Now, why don't I introduce ya to the Apple family?" A large group of similarly dressed people arrived all holding different kinds of food. There's some apple pie, candy apple, all sorts of apple snacks. Phoenix started to become slightly afraid, "Thanks, but I really need to hurry..." tries to move towards the gate, but Applejack drags him towards each family member as she called their names. "This here's Apple Fritter, Apple Bumpkin, Red Gala, Red Delicious, Golden Delicious, Caramel Apple, Apple Strudel, Apple Tart, Baked Apple, Apple Brioche, Apple Cinnamon Crisp, Big Macintosh, Apple Bloom, aaaand Granny Smith. Up and at 'em Granny Smith, we got a guest.", she shouts at an elderly woman, dressed in a green dress and with a head full of gray hair.
Granny Smith woke up in her chair, "Wha? Soup's on, I'm ah, here I come, ah coming...", she muttered as she very slowly walks towards them. "That's one big ass family..." Phoenix, muttered looked at them in shock. Applejack petted him on the back "Why, I'd say you're already part of the family." giving him another smile. Phoenix laughs nervously as he takes a step back, "Okay, well, I don't want to be a burden. So I'll be on my way." tries again to leave but a small girl around the age of 11 in a yellow dress and a red bow on her head, she was introduced to him as Apple Bloom.
She was looking up to him with big orange eyes, he looks back at her as she ask him, "Aren't you gonna stay for brunch?". Phoenix feeling a light pang of guilt as he scratches the back of his head, "Sorry, but my friends can't do anything without me. They probably get themselves killed... or worse." At his answer, the Apple family gave a collective, "Awww..."Phoenix relents, "Fine. I can't say no to free food anyways.", he crosses his arms as the entire Apple family responds with a collective cheer.
Meanwhile, close to the forest, a blue haired young man dressed in a blue blazer over a white shirt and khaki pants, wakes up in a tree, in his shock he falls out of it, hitting multiple branches on the way down. The young man lands on his back, knocking the air out of him. Rolling over to his front while muttering "I think I might have hurt something..." stands up and hears birds chirping, but not just any random chirping like you hear normally, but chirping as if they were in a chorus.
It sounds lovely. The young man walks closer to the source as he sees a small girl, about 1,63M, dressed in a yellow summer with white sandals with pink hair and a set of yellow wings on her back directing the birds to chirp like that. "Oh my. Um, stop, please, everyone." the girl interrupts before turning to one of the birds, "Um, excuse me, sir. I mean no offense, but your rhythm is just a teeny tiny bit off."
The bird that chirped gave her a nod, letting her know that it understood. "Now, follow me, please. A one. A two. A one-two-three..." the girl begins before being interrupted by the young man. "Hello!" the bird fly away and scared the girl. The young man shakes his hand realizing his mistake, "Oh my, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to frighten your birds. I'm just here to look for my friends and then I heard the birds and it's sounding beautiful. I'm Toshiyuki Sutakira. What's your name?". The pink haired girl looked at the ground with her sky deep blue eyes, mumbling "Um... I'm Fluttershy."
Sutakira tilted his head as he crossed his arms, "I'm sorry, what was that?", he asked in a friendly matter, Fluttershy became even more nervous and said with even a quieter mumble, "Uh... My name is um... Fluttershy.". Sutakira scratches the back of his head, "Didn't quite catch that." Fluttershy with a very small and squeaky voice "Fluttershy.". Sutakira raised an eye brow before slowly replying "Well, um, I leave you to what you where doing. Keep up the good work." gives her a thumbs up. Fluttershy looks at the ground, saying with a very squeaky voice, "You've very welcome."
Over up at the skies, a chariot is pulled across the skies by two Seraph guards dressed in golden armor. In the chariot a girl dressed in what best could be as a classic privet school uniform in a lavender colors, with a purple plated skirt, black knee high socks and brown leather loafers. She had purple hair with two different color streaks in the center, a purple horn was stick out of her head. She is accompanied by a small purple dragon. The girl looked grumpily over the edge of her chariot groaning, the purple dragon looks up at her, giving her an smile, "Look on the bright side, Twilight. The princess arranged for you to stay in a library. Doesn't that make you happy?"
The girl raised in excitement, "Yes! Yes it does. You know why? Because I'm right. I'll check on the preparations as fast as I can, then get to the library and find some proof of Nightmare Moon's return!"
"Then when will you make friends, like the Princess said?" the dragon questioned her. The girl gave a huff before answering, "She said to check on preparations. I am her student and I'll do my royal duty, but the fate of Equestria does not rest on me making friends."
As the chariot landed in Ponyville, the girl and her dragon exited the chariot as they entered the town. The girl continued, "If Nightmare Moon reappears the only way to stop her is using the Elements Of Harmony." The dragon looked at her questionably, "The Helements of Armony? What are..." he trails off as he sees Skywalker walks past them looking around and ignoring the stare's the town's people are giving him.
Turning to look at the girl, "Twilight Sparkle?", Skywalker asked as he walked to her, giving her a smiled. Twilight gave him a suspicious look "How do you know my name?" Skywalker tilted his head, "Well there is this crazy bubblegum pink haired girl who asked me to look for a Magi girl with violet eyes, hair with the colors dark indigo, purple and a baby dragon with her and bring them to the tree library thing.", Skywalker explained before introducing himself, "My name is Skywalker, Jason Skywalker by the way."
Twilight relaxed a bit, "Alright, but how did you know my name? You should only know how I look." Skywalker pointed at her suit case "Your names is writing on your suite case." Twilight quickly looked at her suit case and indeed in the side it said 'Twilight Sparkle', before turning back to him, "Oh right. This is Spike by the way."
Skywalker kneels, to get on Spike's eye level and extending his hand, "Nice to meet you, Spike.", Skywalker said as gave him a kind smile, Spike couldn't help but smile back as he shook his hand, "Anyways, let's go to the library."
A short walk later, Skywalker points at the Library, "Here we are, Golden Oak Library. Home, sweet... Library." Twilight walks past him and opening the door as Skywalker and Spike follows her. "You must enjoy reading." Skywalker tried to strike up an conversation but Twilight interrupts him, "Sorry, Skywalker, but I have to convince the princess that Nightmare Moon is coming and we're running out of time. I just need to be alone so I can study. Now where's the light?" Someone flips on the light as nearly everybody in town is there and yells "Surprise!".
Twilight groans as a girl with a pink shirt, white skirt, two sneaker and big blue eyes with bubblegum pink hair bounces in front of her "Surprise! Hi, I'm Pinkie Pie and I threw this party with Griff Griff just for you." Pinkie said with one of the biggest smiles every on her face. Skywalker tilts his head and raises his eyebrow, "Griff Griff?" A young man with sickeningly pale skin, ruby red eyes and blonde hair. On his upper body he wears a button-up white shirt kept partially buttoned, a plain gray hoodie, and a black leather jacket with a red tribal design on the back. On his lower body he wears plain blue jeans and black shoes.
The blonde appeared next to him with a soda can in his hand, "That's what she calls me." the young man called Griffifth said taking a sip from his soda. Pinkie bounces in front of Twilight continuing her questioning "Were you surprised, were you, were you? Huh huh huh?" Twilight forced a smile, "Very surprised. Libraries are supposed to be quiet.", she said a little annoyed by the energetic pony. "Thank you!", Sutakira said, agreeing with her as stood in the background.
"That's stupid. What kind of welcome party would this be if it were quiet?" Griffifth responded dryly taking another sip. Pinkie gave a big nod while speaking very fast, "I know, duh, boring. I heard you were moving to Ponyville today, and that means your new, and if you're new, then it meant you haven't met anyone yet, and if you haven't met anyone yet, you must not have any friends, and if you don't have any friends then you must be lonely, and that made me so sad, and I had an idea, and that I'll just throw a great big ginormous super-duper spectacular welcome party and invite everyone in Ponyville. See? And now you have lots and lots of friends."
Skywalker's mouth dropped open at the sheer speed Pinkie could speak, "She said all of that in one go..."
The party continued well through the night, but Twilight had retreated to her bed room very early. Skywalker tried to get her to come down but to no avail. The other guys, meanwhile have introduced themselves to the other girls and have started to mingle. Skywalker walks to the food and drink table, taking a soda can. As he opens it he notice Fluttershy staring at him. "Oh, We haven't been introduced yet, I'm Skywalker, Jason Skywalker. Your... Fluttershy right?", gave her a warm smile, but Fluttershy just keep staring at him, making Skywalker a little uncomfortable. Phoenix comes running up at them "Guys! There gonna raise the sun or some shit! Let's go and watch!"
Meanwhile on the moon... woman in dark armor with two large black wings and a large horn sprouting from her helmet, her hair looks like mist floating as if held by the wind, standing on top of the mountain overlooking the planet down below. "At last we will reveal ourselves. At last I will have my revenge." the dark knight stated to a very tall man dressed in a black trenchcoat that is double-breasted and twin-tailed, with a hood and long sleeves, it has a large silver zipper that fastens at the top and zips down to seal the coat. A hood covered all facial features of the man, though there were glowing blue orbs were his eyes would be.
"You have been well trained, my young apprentice. They will be no match for you. Now go, and deliver Equestria to me.", the cloaked figure responded, conjuring a dark blue flame, releasing the dark knight from her the bindings that contained her on the moon.
I think this will be a good place to stop, I hope you like it. I wish you all a fantastic day, thanks for reading and I will see you ladies and gents, next time!
