Spellbinding Ponies: Worlds Outside Equestria?

Rarity: Worlds OUTSIDE Equestria?

After the mayhem of Malistaire, Our story continues in the Throne Room, with the Mane 6, the Princesses and Spike.

Celestia: Yes. Equestria is one of many worlds held together in the Spiral. It was a discovery, founded by Starswirl the Bearded.

Twilight: The Spiral? But, I've been doing research of many things throughout Equestria, but never have I read any books regarding this "Spiral"

Spike: Which REALLY surprises me, since Twilight has a book on pretty much EVERYTHING!

Luna: We were going to give you the information of this matter when you are ready, which I thought was soon. But it seems Malistaire, has already given you a hint that he isn't from here.

Applejack: Who is this Malistaire feller anyway?

Luna: Malistaire Drake, he use to be the most powerful and kind-hearted being in Wizards City. But ever since the death of his beloved, Sylvia Drake, he became black-hearted, wallowing in saddness, distraught, rage.

Celestia: Malistaire didn't want to let go of Sylvia, so he became reckless, and make an attempt to bring her back from the dead.

Fluttershy: But why is it a problem, Princess? I mean, I know I would bring a loved one back if I was in his shoes.

Celestia: I'm afraid you don't understand the outcome of this situation. Malistaire plans to go to extreme measures to bring back Sylvia. Measures that could threaten Equestria, and the worlds within the Spiral as well.

Fluttershy: Oh...I guess that is a problem.

Rarity: And all the more reason to stop him. He must accept Sylvia's fate, let her rest in peace.

Luna: Yes. But, I'm afraid reasoning with him was long overdue. When one like, Malistaire falls into darkness, they are far out of reach. We must stop him at all cost.

Twilight: My question is: How is he going to do it? And where should we start?

Celestia: That is for you to find out, Twilight. You and your friends must put a stop to Malistaire and his plans, before he causes destruction to everypony and everyone.

Rainbow Dash: But where do we start?

Applejack: And how can we get ta these other worlds?

Pinkie: And when can we celebrate your birthday?!

Everypony stared at Pinkie in confusion, some in disbelief.

Pinkie: What?

Rarity: Darling, don't you think there are, you know, more important things than that?

Pinkie(Gasps): MORE IMPORTANT THAN THE PRINCESS' BIRTHDAY?! You crazy.

Twilight: Actually, that kinda is important. I'm sorry Malistaire trashed your special day, Princess.

Celestia: It really is fine, Twilight. As much as I would enjoy, celebrating my birthday, we must deal with the task at hand. After all, I didn't need to ask for any present. The best gift I have, is reuniting with my sister, for all these years.

Luna(teary-eyed): Ohhhh Tia...

At an instant, the two sisters simply hugged each other, as well as the Mane 6 and Spike joining in on the sisterly love.

Later after the meeting, the Mane 6 and the Dragon messenger traveled back to Ponyville via train to tell the town, as well as setting up for their big journey. At Sweet Apple Acres, Applejack called upon her family to tell them about what's going on.

Applejack: So, yeah that's the long an, short of it.

Apple Bloom: How long will ya be gone?

Applejack: Don't know how long this quest will take, but I'll come back.

Granny Smith: Well ya better not go without some snacks when yer about as hungry as a wild horse. I'll pack some apple treats Fer you and yer friends before ya head out.

Applejack: Thanks, Granny.

She then turns towards Big Mac.

Applejack: Take care of the farm?

Big Mac: Eeyup.

And at that moment, the Apples joined together for a group hug. Meanwhile at the Carousel Boutique, Rarity was handing her sister, Sweetie Belle a list of chores to do while she was away.

Rarity: Mop the floors, clean the dishes, most importantly, watch after Opal. I do NOT want her claw scratches on my dresses again, understand?

Sweetie Belle: Got it!

Rarity: And Zipporwhill and her father is supposed to be coming here to pick up her dress for her Cuté-cinera. Think you can introduce the dress properly?

Sweetie Belle: Of course! Just go on your quest, Rarity, I can handle things from here.

Rarity: Tomorrow, you're the Queen of the House, I trust you to keep this place in tip-top shape until return.

Sweetie Belle: Which is.....how long?

Rarity: I don't know.

Meanwhile, in Sugarcube Corner, Pinkie Pie was having a mare - crock chat with her pet Gummy.

Pinkie: All right, Gummy. I don't know how long I'll be out, but I'm counting on you to watch the store while I'm gone. Can you handle it?

Gummy gave his owner a blank expression....as always.

Pinkie: I have full confidence in you, Gummy! And remember, when you look at the customers, OFFER SERVICE WITH SMILES!

Pinkie Pie gave her pet a big ol' smile, which has been acknowledged with a slow blink. Meanwhile in Fluttershy's cottage, Fluttershy is giving her chaotic friend, Discord a small list of chores to do

Fluttershy: Now remember to give the chickens their feed 3 times a day. Morning, afternoon, and night. Oh an make sure to give Angel his bath. He may be a bit aggressive about it, but I'm confident you'll handle it.

Discord: Oh don't worry your silly little head, I have these animals in my command. You can count on me, dear Fluttershy. And hey, I at least have the whole cottage to myself!

Fluttershy(concerned): Somehow that's the one thing that worries me...

Up in the skies, Rainbow Dash tried to tell her number 1 fan about what's going on,unfortunately for her, Rainbow can't find her own number 1 fan.

Rainbow Dash: Scoots? Scoots? Where is that filly?

Rainbow, looked high and low for Scootaloo, but no matter how far she went, and how hard she looked, Scootaloo just can't be found. She then spotted a grey colored colt with a black mane.

Rainbow Dash: Hey, Rumble!

Dash flew down to where the said colt is standing.

Rainbow Dash: Rumble, have you seen Scootaloo?

Rumble: Uh I don't think so, she wasn't in class today. Maybe she went to do her stunts.

Rainbow Dash: Maybe....look if you see her, tell her me and my friends are heading out a journey. Princess' orders.

Rumble: You got it, Rainbow!

At the speed of light, Rainbow Dash headed home to sleep for the big adventure to come. Meanwhile in the Castle of Friendship, Spike and Twilight were just ready to go to bed.

Twilight: We gotta get some rest, Spike. We need to conserve our energy for the big trip tomorrow.

Spike: Fine, fine. It's just so exciting really, we're actually going to other worlds, not just places, WORLDS! Who knows what'll be waiting for us when we get there?

Twilight: I know you're excited, Spike, but you won't be able to see them if you oversleep, now will you?

Spike:.......No.

Twilight: Good, now go to sleep.

Spike: All right, all right.

Twilight(thinking): Though he's not wrong, it does seem exciting. Seeing worlds beneath the stars, who knows what'll await on my journey? With my friends by my side, it'll be a journey worth waiting for. What species will we see there? And what people and creatures will we meet? Every time I even think of it, curiosity will peak.

And thus our story shall begin.
