If The Awesome 6 Lost [The Time Paradox pt 5]
(Part 6: Alyssa Rice and Julia travel back to Julia's old library via Time Portal.)
[Time Portal appears and the duo falls out of it.]
[Thud!]
[Time Portal shortly disappears.]
Alyssa Rice: Well that didn't work. Looks like there was no sign of the drawing anywhere.
Julia: Oh Alyssa, darling, I'm sure we will find it.
Alyssa Rice: [sighs] Sure. Let's just make the Time Portal appear again, and see what will happen.
[Time Portal appears again.]
Julia: There's a chance the drawing could be there somewhere.
[They disappear in a flash.]
***
[Soon, the Time Portal takes the duo to a foggy forest.]
Julia: Huh?
Alyssa Rice: Where are we? And what time is this?
[They wander around the forest.]
Alyssa Rice: Julia? Julia! Can you hear me?
Julia: Darling, I can, but I just can't see you through the fog. Where are you?
Alyssa Rice: I don't know. But if I did, I would've been walking right next to you.
[The two ponies are unaware that they are walking towards each other due to the fog. They soon unintentionally bump into each other, realizing that they're still here.]
Alyssa Rice: You're still here! [hugs Julia] My gosh, I was so worried.
Julia: I don't blame you. I could barely see a thing through the fog.
[They look around the foggy forest.]
Alyssa Rice: Me neither. Where is everypony?
Julia: Perhaps we should wander around.
Alyssa Rice: Good idea, Julia.
[They walk though the forest together.]
Alyssa Rice: Hello? [simultaneously] Anthony? Black Thunder? Where are you?
Julia: [simultaneously] Juno? Shaley? Zeyanna? Anypony? [sighs]
Alyssa Rice: [walks over to Julia] No sign of our friends, yet.
Julia: I know... and I'm already starting to miss Black Thunder already.
Alyssa Rice: [sympathetically] Me too. But at least we have each other, right?
Julia: Yes. But we still have to find the drawing if we want Alyssa Rice and Friends to make history forever!
Alyssa Rice: Good point.
[They walk together when they are stopped by a group of guards.]
Alyssa Rice: What the-?
Julia: Hey! [whispers to Alyssa] No pun intended.
Alyssa Rice: [gulps] [She suddenly sees Juno as one of the guards.] ...Juno?
Juno: [draws spear] Don't even think about it, poison!
Alyssa Rice: Poison?
[As the duo slowly backs away, the guards draw near closer to them until they hear a "Halt!"]
Both: Huh?
[A figure soon steps out of the crowd towards Alyssa and Julia. It is later revealed to be Neko Star.]
Alyssa Rice: ... Neko Star?
Julia: My goodness, you're here! [gasps] You have a... a horn?
Neko Star: Not just that. [spreads wings]
Both: [gasp]
Alyssa Rice: You're an Alicorn!
Neko Star: Exactly. [sighs]
Alyssa Rice: What happened, Neko? Did things go wrong?
Neko Star: To tell you what's going on, you'll have to follow me. Come on, soldiers. [To the duo] That includes you two.
Julia: [shudders] That tone...
Alyssa Rice: [quietly] I guess Neko didn't end up with Blossom, did she?
[The ponies trot up to follow the soldiers and Neko.]
[As the ponies walk through the forest, Neko explains what has happened in this period.]
Neko Star: ... and because of my rebellious deeds, Princess Celestia had offered me to become the Princess of Rebellion. So to put it simply, Sailor Blossom and Clover Sparks have ended up together and had a few foals of their own, Sweet Peach is still crying over the fact that Cheesy and Destiny are gone, Irene Sky, Destiny's sister, had gone off to join Celestia's army instead of staying home to look after their dysfunctional parents. And Poppy... well, I don't know what has happened to her, but I just hope she's okay. And here I am, the Princess of Rebellion... with you two around.
Alyssa Rice: Wait a minute! So, did Destiny and Cheesy... not make it?
Neko Star: Apparently, yes. Even though Cheesy was there for her, Destiny couldn't help but suffer from the depression, so she gave up and laid down her own life before he did.
Alyssa Rice: That's terrible!
Neko Star: Indeed, it is. Here we are.
[They walk over to a medieval Ponyville.]
Julia: [gasps]
Alyssa Rice: This doesn't look anything like I expected.
Neko Star: [points to the center of Ponyville] Here is where Destiny and Cheesy lie. [quietly] At the heart of Ponyville.
Alyssa Rice: [gasps] D-Destiny...?
[Julia and Alyssa slowly walk over to the deathbeds of Destiny and Cheesy.]
Alyssa Rice: [shaking] I-If only I had done something to help Destiny out...
Julia: Hey, hey, hey. Now let's not worry, at least we're living in a period where Destiny is alive.
Alyssa Rice: ... and the Squad exists.
Julia:
Neko Star: So tell us your story. What has brought you here?
Alyssa Rice: [clears throat] My friend Julia confessed to us that she was the pony behind the drawing of Prince Flaring Shield and Princess Blossom, but considering about the author of their story, we used a time-travelling spell to go back in time to find them, but we travelled back to the wrong timeline, where Julia was about to finish the drawing and send it to Ponyville to make the story public, and we got into an argument about it, so as of now, the drawing has gone to a different timeline, and we have yet to find it until it's too late.
Neko Star: Interesting.
Julia: Y-Ya think so?
Neko Star: Yeah.
Alyssa Rice: And we've travelled through different time periods, but there's no sign of it yet! [sighs] If only Julia hasn't made the decision to time-travel.
Julia: Wha- Me?! I thought it was you that had gotten ourselves into arguing in the first place. If we hadn't, we wouldn't be here by now!
Both: Grr!
Neko Star: Both of you, enough!
Both: ...
Neko Star: [sighs] Thank you.
Alyssa Rice: We're so sorry.
Neko Star: You better be, because apparently he is here.
Julia: He?
Neko Star: I'll give you a hint: Poison.
Alyssa Rice: Poison... isn't that what Juno had said earlier?
Julia: As in, poison ivy?
Neko Star: No.
Alyssa Rice: How about another hint?
Neko Star: Okay, fine. Cheese.
Alyssa Rice: Cheese? Hmm... [gasps] I think I know now.
Julia: What is it?
Alyssa Rice: Spring Cheese. Destiny has told me all about him back at the present.
Julia: Really?
Alyssa Rice: According to her, he's a Unicorn who dares to poison anything that's valuable in his eyes.
Julia: [gulp] But how?
Alyssa Rice: He wears a vine of poison ivy on his leg... I don't know if that's true, but that is what Destiny has told me.
Julia: Oh my...
Alyssa Rice: Don't worry, Julia. At least we don't belong in this period, so as long as we get out of here safely by time travel, we'll be good.
Julia: [sighs]
Neko Star: How exactly do you know about him?
Alyssa Rice: [sighs] Back at the present, where Destiny Blood is alive.
Neko Star: Really?
Alyssa Rice: And she and her friends used the Special Gems to defeat Spring Cheese and restore the garden with the help of the Holders.
Neko Star:
Alyssa Rice: And you were one of her friends. And without her, you and Blossom wouldn't be together...
Neko Star:
Alyssa Rice: ... like now.
Neko Star: And if you two continue to argue, he'll find us and it's a battle between him and us.
[A rustling noise is heard.]
Both: [gasps]
Neko Star: Stand back! I think I know who's there. Guards, stand behind me.
[Guards prepare for an attack.]
[A tall figure appears.]
Both: [gasps]
Julia: Who is that?
Neko Star: Well, well, if it isn't...
Spring Cheese: Spring Cheese!
Julia: Is that... him?
Alyssa Rice: I think so, except... his vine!
Julia: What?
Alyssa Rice: [points over to Spring Cheese] It's supposed to be on his leg, but it's gone! I wonder what has happened to it.
Julia: That's interesting.
Neko Star: Dare to poison our troop, huh, Cheese?
Spring Cheese: If you insist, Princess. I've had enough to tolerate a bunch of foals like you, but now, it is official. Everything that has valued has been poisoned, and it's me who has to defeat you and your little army of weaklings.
Juno: We ain't no weaklings! In fact, we're better than you!
Spring Cheese: Oh, is that so? [uses his magic to spawn an army of poison ivy]
All (except for Spring Cheese): [gasps]
Alyssa Rice: [in a whisper] Well this isn't good.
Neko Star: Well, you've had your luck. Because now it's now, it's us against you! Attack!
[All the guards charge against Spring Cheese and his poison ivy army, but the vines trap some of the soldiers and poison them.]
[Neko Star and Spring Cheese are in a magic duel while Alyssa Rice and Julia witness the battle.]
Alyssa Rice: Neko! What about the Special Gems?! Can't you just use them against Cheese?
Neko Star: [weakly] They're no use. Every gem has been poisoned, so they're powerless.
Alyssa Rice: What about the Elements of Harmony?
Neko Star:
Alyssa Rice: Oh...
Julia: What can we do then?
Neko Star: This is no time and place for you to be there. You have some time-travelling to do, and you need to get out of here now.
Alyssa Rice: But Neko...
Neko Star: GO!
[Alyssa Rice and Julia run out of the forest while using their magic to blast the poison ivy out of their way. They spawn the Time Portal and jump into it, making them disappear in a flash.]

Apologies for the long dialogue.
