Chapter 4 - Unknown reasons

Celestia POV

I appeared out of the bright ball of light that was my teleportation spell, I love doing the theatrics with my spells, when the theatrics was over I saw all of my most faithful student friends and a extra pony in the room.

"Hello I am princess Celestia, co-ruler of Equestria, and controller of the sun" I said to the stranger

"I'm Jordan eagle, traveler of sorts, fighter of nightmares, and shapeshifter if I want to" Jordan said, my eyes widen as she said her name, she's the reason Luna turned into nightmare moon, now I will have my revenge on her

"YOU, YOU'RE THE REASON FOR NIGHTMARE MOON!!!!!!" I said loudly in my Canterlot voice

"Wait what!!!" Jordan said as she looked surprised almost like she didn't know what she did

"Woah, woah, woah, woah, I never met you before until now, and I have no idea what you're talking about" Jordan said while I started blasting her and she dodge just barely by her mane

"LIAR, YOU ARE THE REASON I LOST MY SISTER FOR A THOUSAND YEARS, AND YOU WILL PAY!!!!!" I said finally blasting her as she was trying to jump backwards but trip and landed on her back

"Ahhhh, ouch, listen you crazy fossil, I haven't even been to this world until now, so either that was someone else or it hasn't happen yet" Jordan said dirt covered and bruised

"YOU EXPECT ME TO BELIEVE THAT, YOU TURNED MY SISTER INTO NIGHTMARE MOON, YOU'RE THE REASON FOR THAT PARASITE INFECTED MY SISTER IN THE FIRST PLACE!!!!" I said powering up my horn into my hands as I was talking

"If you think this than give me your best shot, and I won't move, but let me say this.... did my eyes look the same as they did back then?" Jordan said, I looked into her eyes to notice that they weren't the same colors as back then

Back then the irises were red surrounded by black and purple wisp "No, no they are not, as in you are not the same pony as you once were" I said powering down my magic

"So glad we got that out of the way, except for one thing" Jordan said as she got up

"And what pray tell is that?" I asked wondering what she is talking about

"This" Jordan said as she sucker punched me in the face, square in the jaw too, it was so hard that it made me fall to my butt

"Now we're even for that hit you blasted at me" Jordan said rubbing her wrist while looking down at me

"WHAT JUST HAPPEN!!!!" twilight just scream with her mane all frazzled and looking like it was about to turn gray and fall off her head

"Oh yeah, sorta forgot you girls were here and saw this whole mess" Jordan said as she looked embarrassed as she was rubbing the back of her neck

"That is still no excuse!!! You punch the ruler of Equestria in her face, and you say that's even!!!" Twilight exclaimed almost pulling her mane out

"Well it was fair, she hit me I hit her back, anyway it's not like she can kill me anyway since my shield took most of the damage" Jordan said as she hold up her wrist to show a watch

"See, I barley took the damage, and given she's immortal that punch wasn't more than a flick on a nose" Jordan continue

True but it still hurt a bit, she pressed a button and what I can only assume was an invisible shield deforming

"Now, back at the matter at hand please, or does everypony still want to scream and say Something that will not help with the nightmare thing" Jordan said eyeing everypony incredulously

"I'm sorry what nightmare, if it's a nightmare shouldn't you have called my sister Luna instead of me, she's much better with dreams than I am" I said confused

"Right I forgot I didn't explain it yet anyway, I meant nightmare soldier, here let us show you" Jordan said as she escorted me to the cutie mark map room

Twilights POV

I was stunned and horrified at what Jordan did, I can't believe that Jordan punch princess Celestia in the face and she didn't incinerated Jordan because of it

"Uhhh twi, are you ok, AJ I think twi's broken" dash said with worry in her voice

"Ah would be too if'n Ah saw my mentor get punch and surprised that the pony who did it didn't get killed" AJ said grabbing me and carrying me to the map room

"So you think she'll be fine, I hope she snaps to soon, she doesn't want to miss princess celestias' face when she sees what we have" pinkie said with excitement as all ways

"AJ put me down I'm not that out of it that I can't walk" I said trying to get out of her grip, how is she stronger than me, I have Alicorn strength I shouldn't be struggling, either I'm weaker than I was before I was an alicorn or AJ has strength greater than an alicorns

"Why am I having a difficult time getting out of your grip, how are stronger than a alicorn?" I asked still struggling to get out

"It's more like you don't have any strength at all twi and I think you have to actually exercise to get this so called alicorn strength" dash said flying over head snickering at my struggle

"Rainbow dash is right twilight, did you think the power of an alicorn is enough" Princess Celestia said as she followed Jordan while also listening to our conversation "You have to exercise to, the time you face against tirek is because you have overwhelming power that is to much for magic to contain and need to exit somewhere and that was through your physical body, which is why you couldn't control that much of your body" Celestia explained as we entered the map room

"That would explain a lot, like how she was faster than me when it happen" Dash said sitting with her hooves on the map table and her hands behind her head

"Lets get back at the matter at hand" Jordan said gesturing towards the nightmare solider

Jordan POV

I was worried that the nightmare would have escaped while we were having a little fight but it seems like it didn't even move while we were occupied

"AJ you can put twilight down now, I need her to explain everything to Celestia while I make sure everything is secure for our little parasite" I said while walking towards the nightmare

"Oh umm, sure, princess what's going on right now is that..." twilight's voice faded out as I was making sure that everything in place

"So are we goin to talk bout what happen between you and the princess or am Ah gonna have tah force it out of ya?" AJ asked while crouching down where I was checking the chains

"You heard what I said, it's either me of a future time or someone who looks like me trying to slow down the mission, either way don't worry about it" I said getting up looking into AJ's eyes seeing concern for me

"You don't know either, it fine to admit it" AJ said with a smirk

"I do, it's just complicated to understand" I said a little embarrassed that she saw through my clever lie

"Yur not the first to put up that front, RD and twi do that all the time when somethin like this comes up" AJ said looking at the two said friends

"What about you, do you put up a front?" I asked wondering if the country pony also did the same thing

"Ah just follow the lead of what twi's puttin out there" AJ said

"That doesn't seem too smart given her condition on what happen" I said pointing at twilight now disheveled mane and a crazy look in her eyes

She smiled as she tipped her hat as a sign of understanding and walked off to see if twilight is doing better

"So what is this creature that you have chained up on the table here?" Celestia asked

"It's called a nightmare soldier, this one can change its shape and its form into anything it pleases to capture or kill its prey, that'a pretty different from the usual one's" I said as I was eyeing it and wary of Celestia "I believe the one you call nightmare moon send it and took over a creature that was near by. She obviously wants these six out of the way as what I'm assuming is the reason she is the way she is now" I said as a fact instead of a question

"You would be right, and you need my help to remove the nightmare to see if the creature can show us where nightmare moon is" Celestia said more of an observation than a question

"Yup, ready to begin, because after this whole mess I need a drink and a nap" I said crossing my arms and looking at Celestia angrily

"I don't regret what I did earlier" Celestia said as she charged up her magic and expelled it onto the nightmare

"I know, I'm still mad though" I said looking at the nightmare soldier being peeled off of the creature which I had no idea of it's origin or what it even is

Once the nightmare was off Celestia didn't stop and continue to burn

"I think it's off now Celestia, you can stop burning them now!!!" I yelled seeing that she wasn't stopping and I had to pull her hands down for her to stop burning the creature alive

"You shouldn't have stopped me from burning her" Celestia said in a low dark voice that was full of anger and the need to kill this pony

"They are the only lead we have to finding nightmare moon, so we need them alive" I said thinking that they must have had a bad history if she was willing to burning somepony alive in front of her student and her students friends

"Twilight can you heal her up, I don't want our only lead to suffer any damage your princess cause to them" I said as I make sure that there was no trace of burns or exposed skin

"...." twilight didn't do anything, she just stand there staring angrily at the female creature on the table

"Twilight what are doing, help her she's the only one who knows where the queen parasite is" I said looking up wondering why she isn't helping her

"I'm not helping this bug, the one who caused my family and everyone here so much pain, I don't care if she's the only one who knows, I will not help her" twilight said with a dark aurora around her staring flaming daggers at her

"Are you serious, your world is in danger and you can't put aside some petty differences for the greater good" I said looking at her like she's a six year old having a tantrum "I don't care if she killed or betrayed you, but she is the only one who knows where that nightmare is, and I need you to heal her so she can be useful" I said now face to face with twilight looking at her in the eyes

"And you you're the ruler of this land and you would rather let the one person who knows how to save it, die because they did something that goes against your rules" I said looking at Celestia disappointedly

"She's right, we have to set aside our differences for this once to save Equestria, but after this she's going to be prosecuted and thrown in the dungeon" Celestia said looking down and walking towards the unconscious figure

She charged up her magic and then transfer it to her hands to expelled it in waves of energy washing over the figure who was now all healed

"Now, let's see what she knows, by the way you guys know who she is?" I asked not know who she is

"The woman who ruined my brothers wedding, the former ruler of the changelings, queen Chrysalis herself" twilight said bitterly as she looked at queen Chrysalis

Hey guys I might as well end it here as I need more time to come up for the next part of the story, until next time believe in the impossible and always stay classy
