Chapter 41: Friendship is Dust
In a castle, a cobbled-together gate of magic and technology glowed and shuddered into life. The mirror in its center rippled and, with a flash of light, a yellow pony with a mane of red and yellow shot out. Her mane was a mess, and her eyes red from tears.
Sunset Shimmer tumbled to the ground, the trip back to Equestria wasn't a straightforward one, but this felt especially strange. She got up and ran through the castle halls. "Twilight!" She screamed she needed to find her. Twilight was now the Queen, and she could be busy but an emergency like this-
Sunset pushed open the door and found herself in the library.
The purple pony was sitting as a table, her head deep in books. Twilight Sparkle must have fallen asleep.
"Twilight!" Sunset galloped over.
Twilight bolted up, her crown crooked. "Sunset?"
"Twilight!" Sunset let out, "I need your help. I don't know what happened; it happened so fast. Suddenly people started to turn to dust,"
"Dust?" Twilight croaked.
"It was so random! People were there one second and gone the next! Pinkie Pie, AppleJack, the other You! Gone! And I need your help! It affected the whole world. I don't have a clue."
Twilight looked at her silently, "I can't help."
"Twilight, please! I don't know where everyone went, I couldn't trace them but if we work together-"
"I'm sorry I can't help you," Twilight looked ready to cry,
"Why not?"
"It happened here," Twilight solemnly said, "Spike, Fluttershy, Rarity, Rainbow Dash-"Twilight sob, "Shining Armor," Twilight shook her head, "Celestia and Discord too. They're all gone."
"It- it happened here too." Sunset shimmer trembled.
"Yes, we're getting word that it's happened all the way Yakyakistan, and we think it went farther. Even Tartarus looks like it's been affected."
Sunset looked on, "How?" The scale was terrifying. She didn't have a single idea of any magic that could do something like this.
"I don't know, I don't know," Twilight told her.
Author's Notes: Okay, here's a smaller one. I've done a couple of big ones and I just need an easy night sometimes. Plus this one was on requested a long time ago. I hope I did a good job, I haven't followed the series in years and I did my best from what I picked up. Anyway, leave a review telling me what you think.
Capitalclassship: yeah, its too late. I have a list of 25 other series to do and thats it. That already way too much. We are way closer to a hundred worlds than I wanted to get close to. It won't be 25 chapters, some will be small enough to share a chapter. But i's too many already. Also, I don't know Starcraft. I think i heard of it but I couldn't tell you anything about it. Every chapter I have a minor breakdown on how far this has gotten to.
msmeow1968: Yeah, people have requested that before. I have but some thought about and it would have taken place after the end of the series. I tend to try and do series after their end, it opens me up. Its just couldn't come up with a hook for it, Ed would probably go insane trying to figure out the equvilant exchange for this. I could justify it but it felt like would break the world, and its rules. It felt really out of place,and its the same reason I don't do any slice of life series here. Plus lets face it they have been through enough.
Guest Austin: Yeah, same reason I don't do Naruto. The lore is too wide spread and I'm not familiar with the rules of their worlds. A research trip isn't enough, there is just too much for me to pick up quickly. I don't know anything about the series, so I can' say who would still be around or anything, much less how their power might interact to the incident or how specific character would react.
