Learning a Lot
-Rainbow Dash POV-
I was walking to the crystal cave with Soarin by my side. There was an awkward silence and I really wanted to break it. But probably did it in the worst way possible.
"So, do you know why that guy's after you?"
"No idea. I don't even know what he looks like."
"He took the form of a black and white version of you. Didn't get a good look before he changed."
"Oh." There was silence again till he decided to break it. "Ya know, I can't help but feel that I met you before. Did we go to elementary school together or something?" he asked scratching his neck.
"I doubt it." I never went to elementary school… it's complicated.
"Oh. Maybe just some dream then?"
I shrugged, "Could be. Or we passed on the street. Anyway, we're here." And we were.
We walked in and I immediately went to the crystal cluster in the back behind the stage and opened it up much to Soarin's surprise. I smirked and walked in, he followed soon after.
When we got to the library section, we saw all my friends already there reading the books they chose. "Did y'all know she used to have temples?" Applejack said having not noticed is coming in.
“LOOK WHAT I FOUND!” Pinkie yelled coming from the gallery section holding a crystal ball I knew was the crystal of memories. Any question asked would be answered so long as a memory of the owner could answer it and will do so in the language any listener will understand. But the owner could tell it that they didn’t want certain memories shown. I was the current owner of it and have been since it was given to me from my father. I told it to not show memories of when I’m in the form I took for that generation. So I knew my secret was still safe.
I cleared my throat so everyone would know we were here. Unfortunately it also caused Pinkie to drop the ball, literally. So I used my superspeed to grab it so it wouldn’t break.
I did succeed it grabbing it but when I looked back at Soarin, his eyes were the size of baseballs and his pupils were the size of peas. “What’s going on?” he asked completely lost with what was wrong with reality.
I sighed knowing it was time for explanations. “Sunset, do you mind explaining our magic. Everyone else at CHS knows about it he’d better if he wants to understand half of what happens in conversations.”
She nodded and started to explain.
(A/N: Because I’m assuming everyone here is a Brony or Pegasister, I’m gonna skip this explanation. If you don’t know how they got their powers then I’d suggest you watch the equestria girls series or ask a fan. If you don’t want to, I’ll put the main things in the next paragraph)
“So let me get this straight.” Soarin said once she was done explaining. We were sitting in a circle by now since it was a long explanation. I set the crystal in the middle of the circle. “A princes came from another world to get her element of harmony and the magic transferred to you. Then the magic started showing up when you played music together, showed your true selves, or was extremely happy. Then when you came to this camp last year, you each got geodes that gave you all a different ability.”
We all nodded. “What powers do you all have again?”
“Super Strength.” said Applejack.
“Talking to Animals.” said Fluttershy.
“Exploding Sprinkles!” Pinkie shouted
“Force Fields.” Rarity said.
“Superspeed.” I told him.
“Levitation.” said Twilight.
“Seeing memories.” Sunset finished.
Soarin nodded as if he was finally understanding, “Then what is this place.”
I used my link with the crystal to make it so it won’t answer the question as Fluttershy, who was sitting next to him, began to explain how we found the cave, what everything was, and the basic information of what they knew about the history. He scratched the back of his neck multiple times while it was being explained.
Then he asked something none of us even thought of asking. “How did the people react to Felix’s death?”
Immediately, the orb glowed and a mist began to form as some music began to play to make a picture that we all could see from whatever angle we were sitting. Nowadays people would compare it to a movie.
It showed a little boy looking at his mother who was dead on a bed and the boy began to sing.
“Days in the sun
W
hen my life has barely begun
N
ot until my whole life is done
W
ill I ever leave you.”
His father came and took him by the shoulders to lead him away and it then showed a different spot in the world where there was a pianist and composer playing his sorrow away.
“Will I tremble again
T
o my dear one’s gorgeous refrain?”
A couple was dancing in yet another part of the world.
“Will you now forever remain
O
ut of reach of my arms?”
A british maid washing dishes came up next.
“All those days in the sun
W
hat I’d give to relive just one
U
ndo what’s done
A
nd bring back the light.”
The next was an opera singer singing in front of an empty audience.
“Oh,
I
could sing
O
f the pain these
D
ark days bring
Though the worlds under
S
till it’s the wonder of us
I
sing of tonight.”
Then it zoomed out to see me in my original form billions of years ago. The other people was memory of me watching them.
“How in the midst of all this sorrow
C
an so much hope and love endure
I
was, innocent and certain
N
ow I’m wiser but unsure”
The opera singer backed me up as I continued to sing.
“I can’t go back into my childhood
O
ne that my family made secure
I
can feel a change in me
I
’m stronger now but still not free.”
Then it was as if the whole world was singing with me.
“Days in the sun
W
ill return we must believe
As lovers do
That days in the sun will come shining through.”
The song finished and we were all silent. Then Twilight carefully picked up the crystal. “You girls think this crystal answers our questions?”
“Oh! Let me try!” Pinkie said grabbing it. “What’s Maud doing right now?”
Nothing happened, “Maybe it only answers some questions.” Twilight said taking the crystal back. She thought for a moment before asking, “Where can we find Eabah and Felix?”
Once again, nothing happened. I decided to give them a hit, “Try asking a question about Eabah’s past.”
We all looked at Twilight telling her to ask the question and she shrugged, “I'll try…" she thought for a moment. "How did Eabah truly feel about Felix?"
The mist once again appeared and showed this.
I was on a hill in my original form Felix right next to me, singing as we danced.
"Every night I lie in bed
T
he brightest colors fill my head
A
million dreams are keeping me awake
I think of how the world could be
A
vision of the one I see
A
million dreams is all is gonna take
A
million dreams for the world we're gonna make."
He separated from dancing so he could get on one knee pulling out a ring. I knew my answer immediately.
"However big, however small
L
et me be part of it all
S
hare your dreams with me
You may be right, you may be wrong
B
ut say that you'll bring me along."
He put the ring on my finger and we continued dancing.
"To the world you see."
We both sang running into the nearby woods.
"To the world we close our eyes to see
W
e close our eyes to see"
I hid in the many vines hanging from the trees and he sang looking for me.
"Every night I lie in bed
T
he brightest colors fill my head"
He found me and I sang to him.
"A million dreams are keeping me awake."
He smiled and continued to dance with me.
"A million dreams. A million dreams"
As we danced, singing together, the vines followed my movements. I was too filled with joy to care.
"I think of what the world could be
A
vision of the one I see
A
million dreams is all it's gonna take
A million dreams for the world we're gonna make
For the world we're gonna make"
Crying was heard as the scene changed and I saw myself cradling a nearly lifeless Felix surrounded by darkness, tears streaming down my face. I looked away tears beginning to form in my eyes but I could still hear it clearly.
"Felix. Please."
"Eabah." He coughed. "I'm sorry."
"No no no. It's not your fault."
"Please. Don't blame yourself. You told me not to but I still went after him."
"Please. Stay with me." I was obvious I was crying uncontrollably. "I love you."
He laughed weakly, "I know. Please. Will you sing for me?"
It was silent for a moment before I shakily began singing.
"Every night I lie in bed
T
he brightest colors fill my head
A
million dreams are keeping me awake
I
think of what the world could be
A
vision of the the one..."
At this moment, Felix disappeared. It's what happens when a Celestial Being is killed. Memory me lost it while present me couldn't hold back anymore and a few tears slipped out and I shuddered.
"A million dreams." I gasped silently. Was that his voice? "For the world we're gonna make."
I looked back to the group but the mist was already gone and it always took some time for it to go. So where did the voice come from? But I did notice Fluttershy, Pinkie, and Soarin were all crying a steady stream of tears. But despite how much I was holding back, I was definitely crying the most.
Pinkie suddenly stopped crying, "Alright. That's enough sad for one day. Remember, he's gonna be resurrected and with this guy looking for him he might already be back! Let's find a happy memory. It can also make us know her more then what the books tell us."
Sunset looked at me as if not knowing if it was a good idea so I answered Pinkie. "Sure! It would be best to focus on the positive things after all."
We all nodded in agreement and began to ask questions.
