I remember Twilight having flying troubles as she crash a lot. Ember will too, but she is very careful with her own wings. If I might say.
Shooting Star is flying around showing off with some flying tricks, while Ember is watching. She was about to join Shooting Star in a minute.
She is getting a bit nervous, even with her own wings. But she did take some lesson form Rainbow Dash in Ponyville and Shooting Star did say that she can help her get her flying right.
When Shooting Star is finish, she came to Ember.
"What do you think Ember?" she ask.
"Your flying is good," said Ember, "as always."
"Well now it's your turn. So come on, open your wings."
As Ember did by letting out her alicorn wings, then Shooting Star came beside her.
"O.K, remember what I did. Run state close to the edge of that small cliff, let out your wings and then flap them so you can some height.
"But don't fight the air current, they can help you left higher. You think you can do it."
"Are you kidding?" Ember laugh that she didn't want to disappoint Shooting Star. "I've practise flying in Ponyville with Rainbow Dash and I bet I can handle it."
Her eyes are now lock on to the edge, take a deep breath and the gallop towards it. She is running fast and about to open her wings again. She can feel the breeze of the air current, that it feel so cool.
When she got close to the edge, she spread her wings and the take-off…for a while. She was getting higher, until she lost control of her wings, she fell down and crash in the ground. Lucky there was some soft green that keep her from any injury.
Shooting Star flew after Ember and then landed beside her.
"Are you O.K?" she ask.
"Don't worried about me." Said Ember getting up and getting the dirt off. "But did I do something wrong?"
"No. You're getting close and that crash reminding of me when a get my flying lesson. Ready to try again?"
Ember is starting to feel worried about it, she did had some little flying problems. But she was getting good at it before and for now, she cannot going to let her friend down. So they hurried back to where they started and Ember is about to try again. Until she and Shooting Star where company by Jasmine, Melody, Sweet Stuff and Buttons.
"Hey girls." Ember greeting, "What are you doing here?"
"Melody and Sweet Stuff had told us you were doing some flying." Jasmine explained, "So we thought we might come and watch you."
"But a good thing you miss Ember made a crash landing on her first try." Shooting Star said giggly finding it funny.
Ember didn't find it funny, when she complained. "Oh yeah. We'll see whose laughing."
She dash towards the edge without wasting time, then let out her wings and being to take off. She was not going to mess things up this time. She remembered what Shooting Star had told her, as she carefully guild and tuck her front legs under.
She was getting on well, until she felt the air current and lost a bit of control of her wings.
Shooting Star quickly yelled to her. "Ember! Don't fight the air current! Use them, keep your wings study and flap them!"
Ember followed Shooting Star's words, until she got control and begin to soar through the air.
"That's much better." Shooting Star proudly.
"Look at her go." Wailed Sweet Stuff.
Ember was now having fun, as she fly around and then drive down to the ground. Her friends were startled, when they thought she was going to crash again.
But she didn't, soar through a bush of white dandelions and flew back up with the cottons of the dandelions float in the wind.
Her friends were surprise, but amazed of what she did.
"Ember!" Buttons cried, "That's pretty good!"
"Pretty good?" Shooting Star muttered disagreed on Buttons word. "Awesome is more like it!"
"I find it fantastic." Melody added.
"You're doing great Ember!" Jasmine cheered out to Ember as she flies.
Ember is flying high that she can see the whole valley, with the Shimmering Forest, Maren Tone Town, the meadow with a pond, the food fields and the mountains. It was beautiful sight. She also feels the wind through her mane, as it flows around and some of the birds came to see her, along with some butterflies.
Her day out can never better than ever, as she turns and dash through the air. She fly down to the pond of the valley, placing her hoofs in the cool water and slide it through it, letting some sparkling water splashing. Then she dash back in the air and land to her friends.
"What do you think?" she ask.
"That was wonderful." Said Jasmine.
"The best flying you ever did." cheered Sweet Stuff.
"I think you were great." A voice spoken.
It was Arthur, as he surprise Ember. He was with Filbert, Marino and Fixit.
"We notices you were flying," Arthur continued, "And see that you're getting good."
"You'll be also most good as Shooting Star." Martino with a smirk.
"Watch it master." Snapped Shooting Star. "I'm close to be the best flyer in Galloping Valley. I may not do the sonic rainboom like Rainbow Dash did. But a can do the star burst in the night sky."
"That was a good light show." Said Buttons to Shooting Star. "But you did see the beautiful golden showers that happen three weeks ago. Just before Ember became a princess."
"That is from the power of the golden heart," said Ember, "and has long I…"
Just before Ember went on, a terrible screech came from the wind and sky. Which started the six mare and the four colts.
"What in a hoof is that!?" Buttons bellowed.
"Look at the sky!" cried Fixit.
The blue is begin to fill with unknown dark clouds, which is making it darker.
"Ember." Melody said, "What's happen?"
"I don't know." Ember replied, but she can since danger and a new evil. "Whatever it is its bad. I can since that."
"I since it too." Arthur added. With him being the unicorn of aura, he can since a dark aura. "And it is bad."
Just then Wind Whistler came by and flew down to the ten ponies.
"Shooting Star!" She cried in worried. "Princess Ember! You and the other must get back to Maren Tone and hurry."
"Mum. What doing on?" Shooting Star mutter to Wind Whistler, her mother. "What wrong with the clouds?"
"There no time to explain! We must get back to Maren Tone! Now!"
The sound for the screech came again. Then the ponies hurried back to Maren Tone, as Wind Whistler told them to.
As they move, the clouds begins to cover all the areas of the valley.
Maren Tone was at peace right now, until ever pony notice the strange clouds in dark colours and it looks scary. Then the horrible screech came from the clouds and begin to frighten the ponies.
"What is going on?" said one pony, "And what is that horrible sound?"
As Ember and her friends made it back to town, all the ponies came to her as they think that Ember might know about this. But Ember didn't know about it, that she in a struggle.
Then Wind Whistler flew in and interrupt t them with some warnings.
"Ever pony!" she shouting. "There's no time to ask the princess some questions. Now quick run for cover! She coming! Brass yourselves!"
"What's coming?" ask the other pony.
Then the cry come again and the clouds grow by turning into a storm. The ponies hope it's not the same storm like before.
Then the bird creature came out of the clouds, diving down to Maren Tone and surprise the ponies by flying on to them. Then the creauture turn to them by flap its strong wings and reviled it's terrible self.
It was a harpy-like creature with black, purple and red striped feathers, sharp talons, long tail feathers and a terrible face with crimson eyes, with white feathers on her head and chest and a long beck.
The ponies gasped with horror, the never seen a bird that is so terrible and hideous.
"Wind Whistler?" Melody inquired slowly to Wind Whistler in fear. "What is that?"
"Terra." Wind Whistler replied, "The terror of the skies. The harpy witch."
When Ember notice with fear, she remember hearing the stories of the harpy witch was her mother Gloria and now she see it with her own eyes, she never thought that the history were true.
Just then Terra came screech down and place herself on to the roof of Maren Tone town hall.
"On my sweet little ponies." Hissed the harpy witch with a wicked smile. "How lovey to see you again after so long. Although, it has been so long since I've seen you precise little faces."
"Terra!" Wind Whistler demand, "You will not bring horror to our valley. If you will just leave us alone!"
"Leave you alone? But we were just starting, since you have me prisoned for a thousand years. Now that I'm free, I will finish of what I've began and clam this land as my own for this day forward.
"And if any for you ponies ever try to stand in my way. I will show my wrath!"
Just then Gloria and Corn Flour came at last and came facing with the harpy witch.
"You may have escape your prison Terra!" Gloria bellowed, "But there are other way to teach you a lesson!"
"Like what? Shooting your magic at me?" Terra wonder and crackled, "I afraid that old trick would be able to save you for I am now stronger that the last time.
"Let me show you what I'm talking about." She continued. As she laugh and take to the air.
Gloria knows what going to happen. Terra is going to change the land in to something ugly.
"Every pony!" Gloria cried. "Get inside, now!"
All the ponies hurried back to their home, they are now frighten of the evil bird witch. They don't know about Terror, but the head ponies.
"Ember!" Gloria came to her daughter with a suggestion. "You and your friends must come with us to the library, at once. We don't have much time."
The ponies hurried to the Heaven Leaf Library, while Terra unleash her deafly spell and the animals and birds fled in fear. She letting her cry with rays of red circles and then the beauty of the valley is now changing its colour. As the clouds in the skies grow and lightning both strikes through.
I've seen the villains in My Little Pony and the monsters. Terra is a new villain and won't be like any harpy you seen, but in much bird like and very frightful. Can be like Nightmare Moon, but no pony like. And like Cynder in The legend of Spyro, she was the terra of the skiesand with a scary sound.
