Hello everyone! I'm back with the next part of the current episode.
Sorry for my absence, I was on vacation, but now we can finish up this chapter.
Last time, Storm, Miles, Tenderdrift, and Daisy all found each other! The bad news is...while Storm and Daisy were gone, Miles and Tenderdrift had a huge fight and Tenderdrift flew off.
Will Miles find a way to make up with Tenderdrift? Find out in this next chapter!
Storm POV
"Thanks for lunch, Fluttershy and Discord. We really should get back to the library." I said after having lunch. "Yeah, thanks Fluttershy! Thanks Discord!" Daisy smiled. "You're both welcome. Say hi to Miles for me." Fluttershy waved as we left her cottage.
We start walking back to the library as the day started to get late. "I can't believe I met THE Fluttershy!" Daisy bounced. "Yeah, was she what you were expecting?" I asked her. "Just like I remember from back home!" "Makes sence." I giggled. "Oh! and how are the princesses like?" Daisy squealed. "Well...I'm not sure how to describe them..they're realling something." I said recalling how I first met them.
"H-Hey!" I said surprised. I just saw Miles run right by me! "Was that...Miles?" I said a bit after he was a far distance. "I wonder what's wrong?" Daisy questioned. "Come on, we need to check with Twilight and Spike." I said letting Daisy ride on my back as I ran towards the library.
I slow down as I get to the door. I walk inside to see Twilight trying to cheer up Spike. "W-What's wrong...?" I said afraid to ask. "Well...I'm afraid that.." Twilight started. "Miles doesn't like it here..." Spike interrupted. "What..?" Daisy said getting upset. "Here, I'll tell you everything that Spike told me."
Twilight and Spike both took turns telling what happened with Tenderdrift and Miles.
"Wait..so Jake just...ran away..?" Daisy said saddened. "I'm afraid so.." Spike confirmed. I pondered that though. "Huh..that doesn't sound like something he would say.." I said knowing my best friend. "But...He can't have said that...It's what we talked about..how we bonded! Was he just...pretending this whole time...? And Ten-D..I don't know anymore..." Daisy said tearing up. I put my hoof on Daisy's shoulder.
"I have a feeling...but I'm not too sure." Twilight said trying to figure something. "I think the only answers we can get are from Miles and Tenderdrift." I stated the facts. "Then lets go after them!" Daisy insisted. "No, I think I'm going to have to go find Jake myself." I figure it would be best to have just me talk with my best friend alone. "Then we'll keep an eye out if any of them return. Twilight said walking over to Daisy, which made her smile a tiny bit. "Alright then, I'm going to find Miles." I said putting my stuff down. "I'll be back soon." I said taking off.
Miles POV
Argh..Maybe...maybe this is a dream..? I bet that's it! I'm going to wake up any minute now! I walk to the river. "Argh...Come on, wake up..already!" I said splashing water onto my face. "Hrgh! sigh..." I quickly lie down on the grass. "Argh...now what...I really am stuck here.." I sighed. There has to be a way back home...I need to find a way home! There's no point! Nothing has happened so far! I must be in a dream!
I stare up towards the sky. "..I bet it has to do with that friendship stuff..." I said recalling the show Daisy watched. I stare up at the clouds. Then I see a blue pegasus with rainbow hair. "Ugh...more illusions.." I face hoofed. I watched Rainbow Dash fly around and then she flew so fast she created a sonic boom! Only, this sonic boom looked like an expanding rainbow.
"Wait a minute..." I feel I've seen that rainbow before...when I was very young...
I was about seven years old...
"Yes! I beat Pumpkin Hill!" I yelled just completing the level from Sonic Adventure 2 on my Gamecube. "Honey, can you please open the door for me?" My mom called from the door holding a heavy box. "Sure thing, Mom." I said quickly putting on some shoes. I held the door open for her. "Thanks Jake." She smiled as she went to the car. I followed my mom outside to help her open the car door.
All of a sudden, BOOM! There was this loud sound coming from the sky. I looked up and I saw this huge rainbow. "Mom! Did you see that?!" I said pointing to the sky. "I don't see anything, hon.." she said opening the back door to the car and placing her box. But I knew I saw it. I saw a girl from next door staring at it too. Then something hit me on the head. "Hey!" I exclaimed. I look down to see what hit me. It was a white bracelet with an NES controller on it. On the band it said 'courage.' I was confused how it got there over time, but I was seven then.
I look up and see that same girl. She had this really cool skateboard. It looked as if she too had found something and put it in her pocket. I watched as she placed her board on the ground and she took off. "Woah..." Mom saw her too, she was doing all sorts of cool tricks on it. But unfortunately, she tripped and fell onto the road. "Hey look out!" I ran to stop a car which was headed right for her. "Jake!" My mom called. But I had gotten in front of the girl to stop the person from running her over.
"Hey! What do you think you're doing?!" The driver yelled at me. I simply stared and pointed to the girl in the road. The driver immediately understood and drove around us.
I reached out my hand to help her up. "Are you alright?" I said as she took my hand. "Y-Yeah...thank you..." She said still in shock. I helped her up. "My name is Jake, what's your name?" I asked. "My name is Zoey. Thank you for saving my life." She hugged me. "N-No problem..." This came from out of nowhere..."H-Hey.." She noticed I had something in my hand. "Hey...where did you get that bracelet?" She said pointing to my hand. "Honestly...I don't know..." I said looking at it. "I got a bracelet kind of like that." She reached into her pocket and pulled out a golden bracelet with a blue lightning bolt and two gray circles on it. Inscribed on it was 'passion.' "Hey, do you want to come over to my house?" I offered. "Sure, I'd love to! Just let me ask my parents." She said running into her house.
I quickly put the my bracelet on my left hand. Whatever it was, it brought me a new friend.
Storm POV
I was flying through the sky as I was keeping an eye out for Miles. I then see Rainbow Dash do her Sonic Rainboom. I wonder if there is more to Equestria and Earth that meets the eye?
I then look back down. "Jake!" I yelled as I flew towards him. He seemed to be deep in thought. "wait..he saw the sonic rainboom, I wonder..maybe he's recalling something...
I flew down to him. "Miles.." I called to him. "Storm.." He seemed worried. "Are you alright..?" I said trying to sound comforting. I watched him start to cry. "Z-Zoey...I didn't mean what I said..." He started to regret. "I heard, Spike told me.." I said sitting next to him. "I just don't know anymore...I want to go home..." He said wiping the tears from his eyes. I didn't say anything. I only reached for my pocket. "Jake.." I said pulling out something of his. "Prehaps you need this.." I said pulling out a white bracelet. "My...but how.." He started. "Hehe..I found it sitting by your bed, when I heard you ran off, I grabbed it for you." I said showing him my bracelet on my right hoof. "...Zoey...What I said...about this place...I regret it.." He said looking at the water.
"Jake, don't you remember these bracelets? Look closer at them." I said. He looked took the bracelet I was giving him and looked close at it. "Wait...it's just like my cutie mark..." Jake inspected it. I smiled. "Remember how we met?" I said looking at the bracelets. "You risked your life to save mine." I recalled. Jake stayed silent. "And think about it..nothing's impossible except impossible itself, right?" I giggled. "...Yeah..." He held his hoof up to mine, looking at both bracelets. "I wonder..if these bracelets connect Equestria and Earth...maybe we're part of something big in both universes." He theorized. "It's possible..you never know." I said.
"But you do have some ponies and a dragon to make up with..." I didn't want to make things worse, but it had to be said. "Sigh...right.." Then something hit him. "But...I don't know where Maria went.." He worried. "No problem, I can fly around Ponyville to search for her. Lets head back to the library first." I said standing up. "..right..." he responded.
"...Zoey?" Miles turned to me. "...Why do you think we're here in the first place?" he asked. "I'm not sure. I think Princess Celestia might know that answer, but I don't know."
We approached the library. "I think I better go in alone, Zoey..." I nodded at him. "Of course." I said letting him walk inside.
Half an hour later
I was lying by the door, staring at the clouds. Soon the door opened. I look over to see Twilight walking out. "ah.." She said startled to see me by the door. "Uh..what are you doing by the door?" She asked. I then look down looking at myself. "I have no idea." I said without a care. "What's up?" I asked. "Well, Miles has asked me to see if I could fly around to look for Tenderdrift." Twilight explained. "I'm coming too, Miles asked me to look also." I followed.
We took off and flew high. "I wonder where she went? And she could use her wings right away! Something about that doesn't seem right to me.." I thought as Twilight and I searched. As I was searching, I saw Daisy walking around town. She seemed worried, and at the same time, fascinated. She must be looking for Maria.
Daisy POV
Oh..Why did Maria run off? I thought everything was going so well...
...Hey, is that.. "HEY THERE!" A pink earth pony ran up to me. I recognized her right away. Pinkie Pie was standing right in front of me. "Uh..hi.." I still question how this is possible. How did we all get here? I thought Laura and Megan were the creators of the show? "You're new in town! My name is Pinkie Pie! What's your's?!" Pinkie said shaking my right hoof. "M-my n-name is Daisy Blossom." I said as she shook me.
As thrilled as I am to be here, I just can't shake the thought off my mind that I have to find my sister. "Nice to meet you! Hope we get to party soon! I'd love to stay and chat, but I promised I'd get these cake ingredients to the Cakes!" Pinkie Pie said as she dashed off. I shrugged it off and went searching. "Tenderdrift!" I called out. I wonder...if I were to go to a place to be alone, I would find a nice place that's kind of hidden. Where would a place like that be?
"*Gasp!* The Everfree forest!" I yell as I dash right out of Ponyville toward the dark woods. "I bet she's hiding somewhere in there! Oh...but the timberwolves..." I know how dangerous the forest is. I've seen just about every episode of My Little Pony. I know I have to go in there. Besides, they're just..wood wolves.. and the poison joke.. and bears... and a bunch of other animals. "Argh..Don't worry, Maria, I'm coming!" I said trying to shake off my fears.
I start walking into the forest. As I was walking, I noticed it started to get darker the deeper I went in. "M-Maybe this wasn't such a good idea..." I said turning around. Only..I no longer could see the way out. "Oh...darn..." Just then, I heard a rustle in the bushes. "W-who'sss...who's there?" I started to fear. Just then...I saw green glowing eyes peaking out from the bushes... "H-H...HEEELP!"
Storm POV
I flew back to Twilight who was still searching. "Any luck?" I asked. She shook her head. "No, I don't see any sign of her." Twilight said looking at me. I quickly scan Ponyville for her. "Maybe we ought to head back to the library for now...Maybe Miles and Spike have found her?" I guess. "I'm not sure...I'll go check on them. You keep searching." Twilight flew off.
Come to think of it...where did Daisy go? I saw her earlier walking around Ponyville? Then I notice Miles walking around too. What is going on here? I fly down to him to investigate. "Miles, what's going on?" I said flying low to the ground. He seemed to be worried about something. "Storm, have you seen Daisy around anywhere? She was waiting with me and Spike, but she seemed to wander off." Miles said looking around. "Yeah...I saw her walking around Ponyville, but that was a while ago..." I recalled. "Oh great, now I have two missing sisters..." Miles facehoofed. "Maria didn't come back?" Miles shook his head, worried about them. "No...sigh...this is all my fault. I shouldn't have yelled at her in the first place, and we'd all be back together." Miles regretted.
"Well..we can't change what happened. We have to look for them." I said landing on the ground. "Right.." Miles nodded. "You watched the show more than I have, where is the best place to try and hide?" I asked Miles. "Well...That one place with the Diamond Dogs, and the Everfree forest...but I don't think Daisy would go somewhere like that...or would she..?" Miles pondered. "She was walking around, maybe if we ask around if somepony saw her?" "Good idea. Oh, there's Rarity, maybe she saw her?" Miles walked over to Rarity. "Hey Rarity, have you seen a little pink filly with magenta hair?" Miles asked. Rarity just seemed a bit confused. "Why no, I'm afraid I haven't. Why do you ask?" Rarity asked.
"See, Miles' sisters somehow ended up in Equestria too. and they're both missing..." I explained. "Well, I haven't seen a pink filly," Rarity recalled. "Oh, does your older sister perhaps have a blue coat and a hot pink mane?" "Yes! That's my sister! Where did you see her?" Miles pushed for answers. "Uh..let me think..I believe she was flying over Ponyville almost towards the Everfree forest." Rarity informed. "Oh no...we'd better hurry over there!" Miles ran off. "Thanks Rarity, we'll catch you later." I said trying to catch up to Miles.
Miles POV
I've got to find Maria and Daisy...This whole thing is technically my fault. Maria doesn't even know a thing about Equestria.
Just then, we heard growling. "M-Miles...did you hear that noise..?" Storm said scanning the area. "Y-yeah..." Storm and I stand back to back, whatever it was, it was close. A few seconds in...we see glowing eyes through the bushes. "Storm...run, now!" I command her. "Are you kidding? I'm not going to let you be dinner for these things..." Storm said loyally. Whatever the things were, I saw they were getting ready to pounce. "Storm," I whisper. "run, now." She shook her head. Just then, three wolves sprung out of the bushes onto me and Storm. "Argh!" Storm endured.
"Come on..." I try to push them away, but they keep attacking us with their claws. "Zoey! come on!" I make one last attempt to knock them away and get Storm to follow me into the woods. Just then, I could feel myself getting pulled into the air; I was held by my shoulders. I look up to see Storm flapping her wings to get some space from us and those wooden wolves chasing us. "Thanks, Storm!" I nodded at her. Though unfortunetly, Storm wasn't used to holding so much weight, so she struggled to flap her wings hard enough. "Storm, try to lose them! lure them into the trees!" Storm caught what I was saying, and flew behind a tree wide enough to hide us. We wait to hear any thuds, but to our surprise, they had cornered us. "Oh no..." We said. I quickly look on the ground around me. "Storm, I'll distract them, you get to the castle." I direct her. "Are you sure you can take them?" She questioned. I nodded seeing as there were big stones around me. "You can count on me." She hesitated to put me down, and flew deeper in the forest.
Some of the wolves chased her, but there was one left for me. "Uh...hey there...hehe..." I tried to use my magic to levitate one of the stones into the air. "Hrgh!"I grunted as I threw the stone at the wolf. It worked, it fell apart. "Huh? That worked? alright!" I get up and run after Zoey who might need my help.
I found myself at this very old castle. I dash to the main opening. "Zoey!? are you in there?!" I call out. "Jake!" I hear screaming. It sounded just like...OH NO! I rush inside to see Daisy cornered by one of the wolves. "Daisy! How.." "Jake! It's a Timberwolf! Watch out!" Daisy warned. She was trapped in the corner, I had to help my sister!
"What do I do..?" I ask myself. All of a sudden my horn starts glowing! "What the...Woah!" My horn was glowing yellow and emitting sparks. I see! That's why I...
"Hey! Stay away from my sister!" I said charging at the wolf. It turned around as I yelled, and BOOM! I struck the wolf with all my might, sending a jolt through its body. I run to get Daisy to safety, but before I try to do that, the timberwolf turned and bites me in my back leg. "Gaahh!" I cry in pain as I fell to the ground. "Jake!" Daisy shrieked. "Daisy! Run! Get out of here now!" I call to her as I try to pry off the jaws getting a sharper grip on my leg. "GET OUT NOW!" I command Daisy. I watch her start to cry as I saw her run out of the castle.
This pain is hard to bear...but I have to get rid of this timberwolf ! I try to get my horn going again to send a large voltage through this wolf. That should get it to let go. "Argh! C'mon...just...a bit...more!" I send as much energy into my horn that I possibly can. "It's no use...Take this!" I let my horn touch the body of the timberwolf, freezing it for a bit, letting me go. "Ha ha! Ow!" I try to run out of the castle, but my leg injury is keeping me from getting far.
"Just a little further... come on! ARGH!" The sharp pain is too much to handle, and I end up collapsing. "This...This is it for me...argh..." I start to lose conciousness. But just before I do, I see a blue pegesis flying above me. "M...Mar..ia..." I manage to say. My vision starts to fade, and I suddenly lose conciousness.
? hours later
Ugh...where...where am I..?
...Am I dead..? No...No...I think I'm breathing...but where am I?
I slowly open my eyes to find myself in a bed. It looked to be like one in a hospital. I look down at my leg to see that someone had put a cast on it. No wonder I don't feel any pain! I hear someone knock on the door. "Hey Jake..." It was Storm and Daisy was right in front of her. "Zoey, and Daisy too! I'm glad to see you both." I said sitting up. "How did I get here?" I asked. Just then Storm turned around and moved out of the way. I saw the same blue pegasis walk in. "Maria!" I lit up. She seemed a bit shy when coming in. "Hehe...Hey Jake...how's your leg?" Maria asked. "Just fine, thank you for asking. Um...I'm sorry...about our fight earlier..." I apologized. "No, I should be the one saying sorry. I'm the one who started it." She admitted.
"Miles!" I heard a bunch of ponies coming to the room. I saw Twilight, Spike, and everypony else. "Are you alright, Miles?!" Twilight concerned. "Oh my!" Fluttershy said as she stared at my leg. "Ugh...A bit hurt, but not as bad as before." I tried to relieve them. "Let me get this straight, you fought a timberwolf to save your sister?!" Rainbow Dash asked impressed. "Hehe..Yeah, I guess I did..." "How'd ya ever escape?" Applejack questioned. "Come to think of it...I don't know...How did I get out of there?" I turned toward the others. Storm spoke. "It was Drift, She saw you knocked out just a couple of feet away. She did her best to carry you, and when I saw her, I helped her out. We carried you back here to get your leg healed." I looked over at Drift.
"You did that for me?" I asked her. "Well...yes, I couldn't leave you there to get hurt more.." She Blushed. "I'm just glad everyone's okay." I sighed in relief. "Don't worry, Miles, your leg will be good as new in no time." Rarity said to cheer me up. "Wait, Storm's got a job to help us get a house, but where will you two stay?" I asked Tenderdrift and Daisy. "They can stay at the library!" Spike announced. "Are you guys sure? You have me and Storm in there already...I don't want to-" "Don't worry, Miles, it's really no problem. Besides, with Storm's job starting tomorrow, you guys will have a home real soon." Twilight assured. "Alright then, I'll have to really work hard!" Storm declared.
I could tell things would start to get better, real soon.
And there's the end of this episode! I hope you enjoyed it!
Now, Storm is starting work soon to get the money to buy a house, be sure to stay tuned for the next chapter!
