//------------------------------// // Chapter 6 : Just accept it // Story: Death awaits // by the star bringer //------------------------------// The first place they thought to go was Manehattan as it was the first place that came to stargazer's mind. but as they roamed the streets bits suddenly fell from a skyscraper ponies rushed to pick them and Apple Bloom would've too if StarGazer hadn't stopped her. As ponies started to pick them up gunshots could be heard as bullets flew and dug into their bodies as they fell to the ground dying a few seconds later. Apple bloom was shocked as if it wasn't for StarGazer she would be on of them right now. then she looked up and saw a group of mares and stallions holding some metal objects as they stood on top of the skyscraper. "What just happened?" she asked "Terrorists that's what, they hurt ponies for some reason unknown but one things for sure their dangerous" StarGazer replied. "But I thought everypony was meant to be friends." Apple Bloom spoke. So StarGazer replied with a song. "It's time you learned a lesson It's time that you understand Don't always count on anybody else In this or any other land I once hoped for friendship To find a place among my kind But those were the childish wishes Of someone who is one of a kind Open up your eyes See the world from where I stand they among the mighty ponies killed at their command Open up your eyes Give up your sweet fantasyland It's time to grow up and get wise Come now little one Open up your eyes We all start out the same With simple naïve trust Shielded from the many ways That life's not fair or just But then there comes a moment A simple truth that you must face If you always depend on others You'll might never find your place And as you take that first step Upon a path that's all your own You see it all so clearly that sometimes The best way to survive is all alone Open up your eyes And see the world from where I stand they among the mighty ponies killed at their command Open up your eyes And behold the fading light It's time to grow up and get wise Come now little one Open up your eyes Open up your eyes" after that they left Manehattan. and went to a crystal cave StarGazer discovered when he was a foal. the cave always meant a lot to him so if any place would allow him to get his cutie mark it was here. But then they heard a stallion's voice come it from a pitch black crystal it wanted to be let out. so Apple Bloom and StarGazer let the spirt out but it turned out to be a mistake as they had just realised King Sombra! he began to fight them as he sang Time for the main attraction The story must be told Time for a chain reaction It never gets old Some bots get satisfaction Breaking the mould Some bots are just distractions Some bots are just gold I'm not the bad guy I'm just a bit surprising It's not worth losing sleep It's not worth analysing There was a time, not so long ago at all I was just like you, can you hear my call? Now I'm poppin' in over here, over there I'll be checking in, but you'll never be aware In the beginning, I kept a keen eye On the state of affairs with the new guy Now I got a new gig, let me know if you dig Ain't going home so l better go big Just got to glance at cam 2B Then you get a little surprise It's me You may say that I'm breaking your mind In my opinion, you're much too kind Time for the main attraction The story must be told Time for a chain reaction It never gets old Some bots get satisfaction Breaking the mould Some bots are just distractions Some bots are just gold You did a good job Watching those little screens It warms my servos and circuits To hear some fresh screams But don't get me wrong You were very brave When faced with friendly singing animals You never caved I'm finished training, done explaining No more facts are left remaining Now you know the gist of it You're a perfect fit I don't wanna hear no more complaining I'm passing down this golden opportunity Eternal scrapyard immunity Take it with pride And enjoy the ride You'll forever be part of this community You may say that it's all in your mind (it's all in your mind) But in the end, I think that you will find You are the main attraction Your story must be told You are a chain reaction That never gets old Some bots get satisfaction Breaking the mould Some bots are just distractions Some bots are just gold You are the main attraction Your story must be told You are a chain reaction That never gets old Some bots get satisfaction Breaking the mould Some bots are just distractions Some bots are just gold StarGazer tried his best to fight off Sombra, but when a blast of magic was going to hit Apple Bloom he used all his magic to put a protective shield around her. after wards Sombra gave up and fled disappearing in a puff of darkness. "Are you ok?" StarGazer asked "I ahm thanks to you!" she spoke as a slight blush formed on her cheeks. Suddenly a bright flash filled the room and after the flash ended a Shooting star with a heart in it appeared on StarGazer's flank, he was ecstatic so he thanked Apple Bloom before rushing off to show Cozy Glow. Apple Bloom stood their dazed for a second before going home.
