Chapter 6 - Memories and funny situations

Jordan POV

It began as a normal story she was waking up, started to plan her revenge, then it went down hill

Chrysalis POV FLASHBACK

I was walking around the everforest, looking for shelter and planning twilight and her friends defeat, I found a castle, to what I am assuming is the old castle of celestia as I was walking inside the castle and saw two banners, both of the banners have the princess I loathe so much

"This shall do, for now, I will see if there is anything I can use as leverage or as a weapon against the princesses" I said to myself, whispering 'I must be going insane if I am talking to myself in an empty room'

"You know the old tale" said an echoey voice,

"We talk to nothing because we sense there is a creature near by" said the echoey voice

"Who is there, where are you!!" I yelled

"Aww, is that anyway to treat a Ally, after all, we have an common enemy" the voice said as it drew in closer

"And what enemy is that pray tell?" I asked

"The princesses and their friends, along with that little dragon, he defeated me without even realizing it" the voice said

"Why should I team up with you, you might not even be real and I'm just going more insane than I already am" I said to the nothing

"Don't you know who I am, queen of the night and the moon, I am the one who possessed the moon princess, I imprisoned celestia in the moon as she did to me, I am NIGHTMARE MOON" said the now identified nightmare moon

"How, you were destroyed by twilight and her friends" I said terrified but not showing it on my face

"You can't truly destroy a nightmare, a nightmare will always return no matter what, like a cockroach, or I should say a changeling, you do have a similarity don't you" nightmare said insulting me

"How dare you, tell me why I shouldn't finish the job and end you" I threaten at the nightmare

"Because even in this form, I'm still powerful enough to squash you like the insect you are" nightmare moon said returning to her echoey voice from before

"Then why haven't you already possessed one of the elements and took over the rest of Equestria, and if your asking me for help, as you claim, I am an insect, then you are not as powerful as you say" I said smugly, I knew she wasn't strong enough to do anything that will actually hurt me or so I thought

"If you must know, I'm not as dumb or as rash as you, look what happen every time you did one of your stupid ideas, you have no crown, no throne, you don't even have your precious subjects" nightmare said staring at me with amusement, "you have nothing, and I can give you everything back, if you just join and agree with me" nightmare said reverting back to her physical body or what looks like a physical body

"Fine, what do I need to do, I will do anything to get back at those wrecked ponies" I said not knowing what I was signing up for

"Good, now, sleep, and let the nightmares take control" nightmare said as she raised her hand and something came out, it was something I haven't seen before, it was as if it was made out of the darkest of night skies and it looks like my deepest nightmares come to life

"Sleep and join my army of nightmares, someone is coming soon and I need them distracted and you are the perfect distraction" nightmare said as I was loosing consciousness

"Take over her mind and go, go to Ponyville and destroy the elements and delay the traveler so I could succeed into having an empire of night and nightmares, where I rule alone" nightmare moon said with a cackle as everything went black

Celestia POV

After everything I have seen and been through you think I wouldn't be surprise anymore, but even for an immortal, there are still surprises in life

"And after that, do you remember anything else, like if she moved or she send some kind of last order to the creature that possessed you" Jordan asked, I, myself was wondering same thing

"No, I don't, just what I said and then waking up here, but I will help you so I can get my revenge on that nightmare, and if I help you I might be able come back to my hive, if they even accept me" chrysalis said with sadness in her eyes as she said the last part

"They will, of course you have to be willing to change, as have they change so they can live peacefully with us, we all have to change to coexist with each other" I said walking up to chrysalis and putting my hand on her shoulder

"So we know where she could be, but we don't know if she's still there" rainbow dash said

"Correct, and the chances that she knows that her nightmare is gone and send out some kind of warning that you are still alive, that means she will flee the second it was dead" twilight said

"I'll go check it out, AJ you wanna come if not then RD can" Jordan said as she pointed with her thumb to where she thought the castle was

"Well, yer gonna need a guide, and I can't think of a better one than myself, RD can tag along if she wants, I'm betting she doesn't want to spend time researching and looking for books" Applejack said looking back at rainbow dash

"Normally you would be right, but I'm gonna stay here and make sure there aren't anymore nightmare coming, I'm sure the princesses need some help" Rainbow dash said

"You just want to fight these varmints, all right but I'm pretty sure there are more at the castle" Applejack said

"remember to pack up just in case there are some problems, like, you just somehow got teleported somewhere and then it turn into some weird events that made you and Jordan fall in love with each other and then when you return you guys get all awkward because of something" pinkie pie said, admittedly that would be a fun and hilarious turn if events which I have seen to many times

"Uhh, yeah sure pinkie, but yeah I'm sure, but she does have a point, kind of, just pack for anything, k" Rainbow dash said

"Hehe, sure thing RD, ready to go Jordan" Applejack asked knowing the answer

"Yup just need something, so any of you have a pocket knife? I left mine back home, if not I'll make due" Jordan said looking into her bag

Jordan POV

We were about to just leaving the castle when AJ said something that I thought wouldn't matter unless it actually came true

"Hey you know what pinkie said, Ah wouldn't worry about it, it's just pinkie being pinkie, she just say crazy stuff like that all the time" AJ said looking at the back of my head since I was in front

"Didn't you and your friends say she had a pinkie sense, she might be more right than you think but it doesn't matter now, what matters is that I should not be in the lead since I have no idea where I'm going" I said since I didn't want to talk about this subject

"Right, yer not avoiding the conversation are ya, because if ya are I have to be believin what pinkie said" AJ said

"Of course not, now if you excuse me I'm going to change into something that can hold my weapons" I said as I was hiding a blush from embarrassment

I went to the left side of the castle to see for a empty room to change into my battle clothes.

I was putting on black ripped jeans, a pair of black leather combat boots, black scrunch up sleeves sweater with the right shoulder sagging, a inside layer of the jacket that was black went down past my knees, and the outer layer made out of black canvas material with two outside pockets with a hoodie.

When I was done I tied up my dark emerald mane into a ponytail and walked out to only see AJ acting as if she saw embarrassing, I walked up to her and asked

"Is everything all right, you look redder than a tomato, did something happen will I was gone, was it pinkie and RD that said something while I was gone?" I asked curious about  the Farm pony

"Ohh, U-u-umm, no, it's nothin, honest" AJ said as her pupils shrink and she suck in her mouth, and looking everywhere except me

"Wow, the element of honesty is the multi-verses worst liar, who would've thunk it" I said sarcastically

"W-w-well, it's not like I-I-I-I meant to do it, i-i-i-it just sort of happen, and I c-c-c-c-couldn't just leave the door open, just in c-c-c-case one of the girls, or the princess, or s-s-s-spike-" AJ said stuttering

I was perplexed at what was AJ saying, I don't know what she was talking about until I realized that I didn't closed the door all the way, only half way closed, as soon as I realize what had just transpired, I blush redder than AJ did at the moment, which was redder than tomato on the side of a red painted barn wall

"I won't say anything to the others if you don't, deal" I said knowing the answer already

"D-d-d-d-deal, W-w-w-we should probably go n-n-n-n-now" AJ said, still  stuttering

Applejack POV

All I could think about was that I accidently peeped on Jordan, it was so humiliating, I mean there's nothin wrong with her, she was in good shaped, and we're both Mares, so, why does it feel different with her

"Hey, hey AJ, you there, hellloooooo" jordan said waving her hand in front of my face tryin to get my attention

"Wha, sorry I was just thinkin, so where are we?" I asked

"We're about near that zebras hut, what's her name again, zecora right?" Jordan asked

"Yup, and the castle should be north of here I think" I said tryin to remember where the darn thing is

"Ok, remember this is just a scouting mission, but if things get hairy, I want you to inform the others while I distract the enemy, I'll try and meet up with you later got it" Jordan said

"Sure thing sugercube, just promise me you'll won't go lookin for trouble, got it" I said starin into Jordan's eyes to make sure she doesn't deceive me and go and do that

"No promises, but I'll try partner" Jordan said as she make fun of my accent

"Now I know you ain't making fun of me" I said smurkin as we got close to the castle

"What can I say, you look pretty when you smile" Jordan said

I was blushin like crazy when she said I was pretty, and I wasn't sure, but I could've sworn I saw her blushin as well

"W-w-w-where did that come from!?!?" I asked stutterin and blushin as we walked across the bridge

"Well, I thought tha-" jordan was stopped short as she was knocked off the bridge by a creature what looked like the nightmare we saw earlier in twi's castle, it was flyin away, probably going to its master

"Jordan!!!!!!" I yelled looking over the bridge, hoping she's alright

Then I see her just hangin on to the edge of the bridge with her right arm, she looked like she might've a gash on her left arm

"I'm alright, just make sure it's not backtracking, I'll pull myself up, remember what I said" Jordan said

"Like Tartarus you are, here let me help ya, and don't worry I think it's gone now" I said as I was helping her up

"Look out!!!" Jordan yelled as she pulled me down, then we both were fallin down into the fog, she hugged me to soften my landin

Jordan's POV

"Look out!!!" I yelled as the nightmare bird circled back, I pulled AJ down and hugged around her so to soften her landing as we fall

Then I realized that I can shape-shift into a dragon so I can fly up and land near the castle so the bird doesn't warn nightmare moon

So I did that and transform into the form I arrived in, I was still holding AJ, but in bridal style

"Took ya long enough, even I would've turned into a dragon if I was danglin of the side of the bridge, if I had your powers of course" AJ said as she was making fun of me

"I sometimes forget that I can do that and were you just gonna let me cushion your landing while I took most of it?" I asked wondering if she was

"Well you seem mighty sure you wanted to do that so who am I to say something else" AJ said with a teasing voice

As soon as we landed near a bush, I transformed back to my earth pony form, I was looking for the bird but it was long gone

"Alright, take this and when I single you on that thing go to the others and bring them here" I said as I gave AJ a device that looked like a walkie talkie "two clicks mean it's clear and I'm going to secure the perimeter, one click means that nightmare is here and I'll give you enough time to run and warn the others, got it" I said as I gave a thumbs ups, smiling a bit

"Got it, but I'm not sure about leavin you here and facin nightmare moon all by yer lonesome" AJ said lookin at me all worried

"Don't worry as soon as you get to the castle I'm going to bail first chance I get, besides, I'm a hard creature to kill" I said smiling all toothily

"Pinkie promise" AJ said as she looked at me

Well that's a weird way to promise something but ok, so I held out my pinkie wait for her to do the same

"What yer doing, that's not a pinkie promise, this is a pinkie promise" AJ said as she about to say something else

"Goes like this: Cross my heart (cross your heart) and hope to fly" she mimic the act of flapping wings by moving wrists "stick a cupcake in my eye" then pretend to smash said imaginary pastry into her eyeball

"Doesn't that hurt, putting your hand on your eye ball?" I asked worried and a little bit horrified that she didn't even flinched when she did that

"Well I didn't actually put my hand on my eye, I just pretended to do so" AJ said

Anyway, I just shrugged it off and went off to the side and looked into the windows, I didn't see anything nightmare related, then again I should be on my guard even more, that bird attacked us for a reason

I looked for any broken parts of the castle to enter, I haven't found any yet

"Hey Jordan, found anything yet, I'm getting mighty bored just sitting here" AJ said as her voice came over the walkie talkie

"Nothing yet, I'll single you once I get inside" I said as I finally found a way in

"Ok, let's see if there is anyone in here, can't make a rookie mistake, not like with the slimes, that was a very embarrassing day" I said as I remember what happen that adventure

I shuttered as I cringed from the memory

"I really hated that one, anyway, I don't see any nightmares or their master" I said as I saw a shadow looming over me and I turned around to not only see nightmare moon, but her entire army of nightmares

"Well great, this is just great, it was a trap, wasn't it" I said knowing the answer already

"My, my, they did say you were smart, now I imagine that one of the elements are here somewhere near by" nightmare moon said

"Not anymore" I said as I clicked once on my walkie talkie as the single for her to run and get the others

"What's that supposed to mean?"nightmare moon asked calmly

"Oh it's just that I singled them to run and get the others, now I don't have to hold back" I said as I dropped the walkie talkie and crushed it under my hooves

"Humph, hahahahaha-oh-haha, they said you have a sense of humor, but this is hilarious, I have an army" nightmare moon said as her nightmares rose as she rose her arms

"I have friendship and a reason to fight" I said with a fire in my eyes and my spirit on full steam

She growled as I said those words"get her and make sure she doesn't leave here alive" nightmare moon said as she pointed toward me

Welp, this is going to be a bad time for me, but remember, I do it for her, for my new friends, and for the multiverse

Applejack POV

I got one click from the walkie talkie and I immediately knew that she ran into trouble, I wanted to respect her wishes, but I couldn't just leave her there

'"if things get hairy, I want you to inform the others while I distract the enemy, I'll try and meet up with you later got it"' I remembered what Jordan said

"I know what I said but I can't leave her" I said "I'll tell zecora, she'll get the others here faster than me, after that I'll help Jordan fight nightmare moon, for as long as we can until the others get here" I said as I ran toward Zecoras hoping she's in

'Hang in Jordan, helps on the way' I thought to my self

Ok that was a long and hard chapter for me, it will take me a few days to come up with a new chapter and an even more to finish it, anyway keep on believing and stay true, Allonsy
