Some day, this will be a "Last.fm/NetFlix/Amazon for web fiction" (both original and fanfiction) where you can search across many different hosting sites or rate what you've read and get recommendations. However, life keeps throwing more urgent projects my way, so I don't know when it'll be ready.
“Open up, you infernal rocks! I am Nightmare Moon, and I command you!”
Raising a hoof, she smashed down at the five stone spheres, sending them ricocheting around the room, one of which rebounded off a knee.
“*!”
Light peals of joyous laughter echoed through her mind as the Nightmare fell to the cold stone floor, clutching a knee which felt as if it were made entirely out of shattered bone and raw nerves.
My Element doth express its distaste for my body’s current inhabitant.
“I don’t need these five useless rocks,” raged Nightmare, picking them up in her magic. “I need the sixth one! The one you lost. The one that made the other two USELESS!”
Magic coiled around the five smooth stones and Nightmare used all her might to fling through the castle window, shattering the last fragments of glass that time had not yet claimed.
My sister did find no impediment to their use. It was your actions that made Magic slip from our grasp, and your foolish pride that made you cast Laughter and Generosity away then, just as you have done now.
“I only need Magic to free myself from your rotting flesh! Where is it? Where did your infernal sister hide it?!”
The infuriating chuckle echoed around inside Nightmare’s head as she looked at her nearly unscathed knee, with only a small lump showing where the stone sphere had bounced off bone. The agony faded as she watched, Luna’s laughter only getting louder as Nightmare realized the deception she had just fallen for.
Magic is only found with its friends.
“Then I shall follow the Elements to their ‘friend,’ and seize it!” Nightmare Moon flung the broken fragments of the window away, only to be thrown backwards as the stone spheres came plummeting out of the inky night, rebounding off her immortal alicorn coat with horrible thudding noises. Laughter was the last Element to return, making a special rebound off the furious alicorn’s helmet before settling down on the stone platform with its four other friends, just as they had been for the last thousand years. The Elements of Harmony had returned home to await their last member.
