Chapter 12: Another Mystery?

It's night. And I'm sitting on a cloud near the edge of Ponyville. I'm keeping an eye out for Snips and Snails. There, I see them. They're running away and Spike is with them. That means…

A roar echoes throughout the night. I put on my goggles, following the arrow. It points me right at the Ursa. Of course… I've come to better understand what the goggles actually do for me. They point me to anything that I can help with, although it's never specified by how much. I just roll with it.

I land in front of the trio, Spike looks up at me. "What happened?!" I ask, very angrily.

"An Ursa is about to invade Ponyville! We have to call Twilight!" Spike says in a hurry.

"No! We have to call Trixie!" Snips argues.

"I don't care who you call! Just, call somepony. I'll distract it as long as I can! I'll be in the EverFree Forest. Spike! Tell the gang as well! See you soon."

"Wait!"

I dash off into the sky before Spike could argue. I see the Ursa coming closer. I shout.

"Hey! Looky here!" The Ursa turns to me. I stick my tongue out at it mockingly. "Catch me if you can!"

It roars in anger. I fly off into the EverFree Forest. Why am I not scare you ask? THE HEY MAKE YOU THINK I'M NOT SCARED?! I'M TERRIFIED!!!

I fly until the arrow ends. It's near a cliff. Not sure why it wants me here, but, whatever. I can hear the Ursa roaring as it gets closer. Hopefully I can use that weather bending of mine now…

"What's taking you so long you big baby?!" I fly up to meet it eye to eye. It tries to slash me, I dodge. "You should work on your aim!"

I fly up into the sky, spinning the clouds. They form into a swirl with a hole in the middle. That's important, I promise. The clouds turn dark, rain pours down onto the Ursa. It's becoming soaked. After waiting for a bit, I kick the cloud. Lightning strikes the middle of the cloud. I'm waiting for it to charge up more. It's gonna take a while.

I hear footsteps approaching. I turn to look and see Snips and Snails, as well as Trixie. Looks like Spike hasn't called the mane 6 yet. "What are you idiots doing here?!"

"The Great and Powerful Trixie is here to show you all that I am the most amazingly powerful pony in all of Equestria! You wanted to see my magic didn't you? Well, here it is!" Trixie says, both nervously and boldly.

"Now's not the time to be trying to prove yourself Trixie! This is a dangerous situation! Take the other gullible fools away from here as well!"

"Hey!

The Ursa shifts it's attention to the trio. I look towards my cloud, it's still charging. I still need time! It roars. I shout. "Run!"

The Ursa dashes towards the trio. They start to run away. I follow along, pushing my cloud as well. Then, I shout.

"Turn around you fools! You're leading it to Ponyville!" I pick off a small part of the cloud and use the lightning to startle them. They run to the other direction. We come back to the cliff. How? TV logic. They're trap at the side of the cliff. Oh…

"Come on Trixie, do something!" Snails shouts.

Trixie looks scared. But she tries. A small cloud that she tried to use on Rainbow appears near the Ursa. She zaps it. Making it extremely angry. 'Roooooaaaaaarrrrrrr!!!!!'

"AHHHHHH!"

I hear many footsteps approaching. I turn to look and see the mane 6. Finally. I shout.

"Guys!"

"What in tarnation?!" AppleJack stares at my weirdly shaped cloud. "What are you doing TipStir?!"

"I'm trying to build up my thunder so that I can strike the Ursa and perhaps make it scared or faint. But I still need time to charge it. Can you guys help me?"

"Say no more!" RainbowDash says.

"Come on girls!" Twilight shouts.

They charge. I wait for the cloud while watching them fight. Pinkiepie pulls out a cannon from out of nowhere. Blasting the Ursa. Rainbow and AppleJack are both kicking and lassoing it. Fluttershy is flying near it's face, distracting it as Rarity and Spike takes the trio away. Twilight is blasting it with her horn.

"Twilight!" I shout.

"Yes TipStir?!" She shouts, stopping her blasting.

"Do you know of a magic spell to stop it for a short while?!"

"Yes! But!" Twilight looks around at her friends nervously. I frown.

"Twilight! You're overthinking it!"

"What?"

"I said, you're overthinking it! Your magic is apart of who you are! We won't hate you because of it!"

"But you all looked so upset when Trixie was using her magic!"

"That's only because she was being a loudmouth! She was boasting when she should have been humble! You're nothing like her Twilight, I promise!"

Twilight glances at her friends once more. She nods, making her decision.

"Everypony, stand back!"

Twilight charges her spell as the others back away. The Ursa roars. Twilight casts the spell. The Ursa stops.

"Thank you Twilight." I say.

I kick the cloud, bending my wings. The thunder that has been charging up in the middle suddenly blasts towards the Ursa. It fries it. Becoming charred as crisp. The Ursa becomes scarred, running away deep into the EverFree Forest. Everypony cheers. I fly down.

"That was amazing Twilight and TipStir!" Pinkiepie hugs us abruptly.

"Too, tight!" I say.

Pinkiepie let's us go. The others congratulates us.

"I can't believe you both actually defeated an Ursa Major!" Spike says as he runs up to hug Twilight. Twilight chuckles.

"That wasn't an Ursa Major Spike." I say as the other look confused.

Twilight smiles. "It was an Ursa Minor. A baby."

"That was just a baby?!" Trixie states in shock.

"Yeah. And it wouldn't have been so cranky if someponies didn't try to wake it up." I glare at Snips and Snails. They back up, nervously. Trixie huffs.

"Well, you both may have beaten that Ursa Minor. But you will never have the amazingly show stopping abilities of the Great and Powerful Trixie!" Trixie uses smoke to run off, leaving Snips and Snails behind.

"Why I ought a!" Rainbow dashes off to follow Trixie. Twilight stops her.

"Let her go, maybe some day she'll learn her lesson." Snips and Snails gulp as we stare at them.

I turn to Twilight and grin with an evil smile.

"Don't you think they deserve an punishment?"

"Oh yes indeed." Twilight nods. "Did you have something in mind?"

"No." I turn to look at Spike. "But I think he does."

Spike grins. "I have the perfect punishment in mind actually… Twilight, can you do number 25?"

"You sure?"

"Yes. And, do it to me as well please."

The ponies look confused as Spike walks near Snips and Snails. Twilight uses her magic to grow moustaches on them. They look at each other.

"Sweet." The trio say at the same time.

"Come on girls." I take off my goggles and tuck them into my bag. "We should get going. I'm not sure about you all, but I'm plum picked tired."

"Still, that was amazing TipStir." Twilight walks up to me. "Where did you learn how to control weather like that?"

"It just came to me. Like it was apart of me. I never questioned it actually…"

"Looks like that's another mystery needed to be solved."

"Huh?"

"It's nothing. Come on, let's head home."

We walk back to Ponyville. I wonder, what did Twilight mean by that?
