Little Pony Legend
Iris' First Quest
Chapter 1
The Map and the Kirin
"Oh Iris it is so you", laughed Chi as Iris showed off the new coat and boots she was trying on. The Guardians of Harmony were currently at Rarity's newest boutique in Manehatten, Rarity For You, which Rarity almost had a disaster in opening if it weren't for Korra, Twilight and the others and managed to make a good article.
"You really think so" she asked giggling as she turned about showing them off.
Nori added, "And not only can I get a discount on them, but I can make sure there is a way for your wings to get out."
"That is what I call a done deal", shouted Nori.
They all chuckled. "Oh, you guys", said Iris wiping a tear away.
"Will that be all", asked Coco Pommel as she approached them.
"Yep, wrap it up", said Iris. Just then she noticed her cheek was glowing.
"Hey, your cutie marks are glowing", said Hiro who was pointing at Akari as well.
"That's not all that's glowing look" said Iris pointing at their arms. Chi, Mai and Hiro looked and saw their symbols had appeared.
They gasp at the shock and because of this they knew this meant one thing. "THE MAP" they gasp.
"But how and why, the Map hasn't sent any friendship missions since. . .", said Mai, "Since our parents time."
"Right, we better go see mom", replied Iris then to Coco said, "Uh can I get a tab on this?"
After telling Korra and Twilight what had happened they were soon in the old Map room.
"This is interesting that the Map has called for a friendship quest after so long", said Twilight, "But more so it seems to recognize all of you as the new Guardians of Harmony."
"Well let's face it we got it in the bag", chuckled Hiro. He and Gallant steed fist bumped.
"I hope so cause the map is sending all of you to the Peak of Peril", said Korra.
"Psssh, I am sure it's just a name", said Mai sticking her tongue to the side in disbelief after everyone gasped.
"Oh yeah like Cloudsdale is made of Clouds, or the Ghastly Gorge really is a place of scary doom, or the Crystal Empire is made of crystal", said Chi.
Mai wide-eyed, "Point taken I assure you."
"So mom do you or Twilight know much about it", asked Iris.
"Raava did share with me a tale about it", said Korra. "Long before even Avatar Wan even separated Raava and Vaatu a group of spirit creatures called Kirin, a race of wisdom, honesty, and enlightenment, always roamed the wilds in search of a place to settle, but they couldn't find anyplace to settle and felt their time leaving the spirit realm was just a waste of time. That was until they found the portal that led them to Equestria."
"Hold it", said Hiro, "You mean Leallani and White weren't the first to use the portal?"
"Apparently not", said Korra a bit annoyed at being interrupted. "Anyway, they found their way here and discovered it was a place full of peace and prosperity and saw it was inhabited to creatures similar to them. They went and found a nice place to settle, the place now called the Peak of Peril."
"Does not explain how the peak got its name though", said Gallant.
"Apparently they were somehow followed by a nasty race of creatures called Neriks! Creatures of destruction. They have raided and attacked them. No one knows if they are both still struggling or if one or the other perished", said Korra.
"But why would the map call all of us there", asked Mai.
"That's for you to find out", said Twilight.
"This will be a great start to showing to both our worlds that you really are the Gaurdians of Harmony.
The Guardians didn't know whether to be honored or scared at that moment.
To be continued. . . .
AN: I know a bit short but I felt it was a good enough prologue as is.
