Starfire woke up, brushed his hair and left his room. He walked
down the stairs to the living room where he saw Rosebud setting
his drink and plate on the table. She turned around and smiled
at him, "Your up a little early this time."
Starfire yawned and smiled to tired to say anything else
Rosebud smiled and went into the kitchen. She took out three
glasses and filled them with lemonade when Booster, Buster and
Charades walked in the kitchen from the shed.
"Your just in time. I was about to bring your drinks outside,"
Rosebud told them.
Booster smiled and took a glass, then he began drinking it.
"Is he up yet?" Buster asked.
"Yes he is, he just woke up," Rosebud replied.
Charades went to the living room and saw Starfire at the dinning
room table eating his breakfast in Luna's chair.
Buster, Rosebud and Booster followed him to the dinning room.
Charades stood next to Starfire.
"Prince Starfire. There's something important we must tell
you."
"They have been waiting all morning and I don't even know
what it is," Booster told him.
Starfire took a sip from his orange juice and turned his chair
sideways to see everyone around him, "What is it?"
"Last night after dinner, we were returning to the apartment
when we ran into a little pony about Lunarstar's age. He had
a dark hooded cloak on," Charades began to explain.
"But we could tell he was ice blue. His feet was like ours
though," Buster told him.
"You mean he was from the other world?" Starfire asked
surprisingly.
"Yes. I told him to return through the Gate but he just
said, not till he get what he came for," Charades answered,
"Then he blew on us. Our side was covered in frost. Another
second and I'm sure it would have been icicles."
"We fought him but we couldn't even get near him or catch
him. He either shot icicle darts or disappeared," Buster
explained.
"Icicle dart?" Starfire asked not sure what it was.
"Yes, right out of his mouth. They're icicles but very sharp,"
Buster replied, then he turned and showed his back leg, "one
of them barley missed me."
"Then he turned into that winter wind and blew around us
trying to freeze us," Charades explained.
"Then we ran but we couldn't loose him so we jumped in the
lake and swam to the other side. We did managed to loose him
but the lake...it was so cold. He tried to freeze us out of the
lake. After that we ran back to the apartment," Buster explained.
"A pony with winter like abilities?" Starfire asked
himself loudly.
"Is he from your side of the family?" Rosebud asked
curiously.
"No, we have no pony in our family like that. I don't know
who he is or how is it even possible for him to process abilities
like our family," Starfire suddenly fell silent as if he
just remembered something.
"What's wrong? Booster asked.
"An ice blue pony with a hooded cloak?" Starfire asked
Charades.
"Yes."
"I bet he is that same one that took the crystal ball out
of Dream Castle when Star Cluster and Fallen were in," Starfire
finally said.
"Him?" Buster asked surprisingly, "Are you sure?"
"It has to be him. He is here in this world for a reason.
I want you two to be careful at night, do not fight with him
till I have talked to Stardust about this," Starfire told
them.
"Ok but what about Lunarstar?" Charades asked.
"She should not got out at night just incase he is here
to get her," Starfire answered.
"But what if he isn't here for her?" Rosebud asked
worriedly.
"He could be after any of us or just Luna," Starfire
replied.
Just then Luna ran into the house with her school bag around
her neck hurrying up the steps and into her room. Everyone in
the living room stood quietly waiting for Luna to come down.
Luna rushed out of her room and hurried down the steps. She suddenly
stopped at the bottom stairs surprised by everyone standing in
the living room and dinning room.
"Lunarstar, could you come here? We have something to tell
you," Booster told her.
Luna hesitated at first, then she slowly walked over to them
with a worried look.
"Lunarstar, we don't want you going out at night,"
Rosebud said to her.
Luna looked at her with a disappointed look on her face, "What?...why?"
"Luna," Starfire called to her, "Someone is out
there and it's just not safe for you. I'm not going out at night
either."
"Is someone after me?...again?" Luna asked in a loud
voice, "I didn't do nothing. Why is everyone always after
me?"
"There's a pony in this world from our world. We don't know
if he's after you or me or any of us but I'm not taking that
chance. He's here for a reason and we don't know what it is.
Until we do, you are not to go out at night," Starfire told
her, "Stardust would be angry with me if I let something
happened to you."
Rosebud nuzzled Luna on the cheek, "It's just till we find
out more about this...new pony."
Luna forced a weak smile, "Ok...I guess."
"You guess?" Booster asked, "Promise us, Lunarstar."
"Ok, I promise," then she smiled a little more, "Can
I got out now and play with my friends in the park?"
"Yes but don't forget the time," Rosebud replied.
Luna turned and ran out of the house.
"Poor Lunarstar," she really enjoys going out at night.
We had to make her stay in when you and your brothers was after
her," Rosebud remarked.
"Me and Skyview looked for her at night while Stardust spent
his time looking for her during the day," Starfire explained,
"I truly hope for Luna's sake that pony isn't after her." |
