Owl's Well that Tones Well

The Sword of Harmony

Your pov:

It was night time and I was out with all my friends to watch a meteor shower that only happens every one hundred years. I was enjoying one of the cookies that me, Twilight, and Spike had brought. So far it was a nice night and we were all having fun. Although it seems Spike was having the most fun with all the praise he was getting. "Hey, everypony! The show is starting" sweetie said as we all began to get seated and the shower begins which was very beautiful.

As I was watching I saw one meteor crashed somewhere near Sweet Apple Arcs. "Looks like a meteor just crashed. Better let AJ know." I thought as I waited for the shower to end and then let AJ know. After the show had ended and everyone was getting ready I walked up to AJ which she noticed me. "Hey uhhh... AJ. I noticed an Meteor had crashed somewhere in Sweet Apple Arcs." I told her which she sighed.

"Great..... I hope it didn't knocked over any Apple trees." She said. "Do you need any help removing it?" I asked her. "I think me and Big Mac can handle lifting it up. But, I'm sure Twilight would want to study it. You can borrow one of our wagons and take the meteor then that'll be fine." She said. "Sounds good, I'm sure she will like that." I said as I then add. "I'll be there around 9." She nods as I went off to pick up the stuff that me, Twilight, and Spike brought while she takes Spike home to bed.

Morning

I yawned as I walked downstairs of the library. "Good morning, (y/n)! I heard Twilight call out. "Good morning, Twi! ....I'm going to Sweet Apple acres to get a space rock." I told her. "Hoo!" "I'm helping Aj." "Hoo." "Applejack." "Hoo." "You know, the Apple farmer." "Hoo." "What other facts do youuuu...." I looked up to see an owl.

"And that's an owl." I said as I stared at it. "I like you to meet Owlowiscious. My new junior assistant." Twilight introduced me. "..... Did you say junior assistant?" I asked with an eyebrow raised. "Yep! He's gonna be a big help for Spike. He gets tired a lot helping and having extra help could help him." She told me. ".........Yeah, I'm just gonna go." I said as I was heading to the door. "I can already see where this is going and this doesn't involve me." I said as I left.

I was had just entered the farm and I was walking through the farm and for some reason it was eerily quiet. "Weird....? Usually there would be animal noises?" I said in confusion as I saw the Apple house. I saw Granny Smith was standing near the barn next to the house for some reason. "Good morning!" I called out to her which she doesn't respond.

"Okayyy.... Must be busy?" I said as I walked to the house and knocked on the door and AJ comes out but for some reason she didn't have her hat on and didn't have her mane and tail didn't have those red braids that she Usually wears. "Oh! Howwwwdyyy, fellow pony. I'm very sorry but this place is..... is.... Is...." She said as she was thinking of what to say.

"Ummm.... Did I come early?" I asked in confusion. "It's not night out?" She said in confusion as she looks out the door. "Uhhhh.... I'm here to help with the meteor." I told her. "There's no meteor here! There have been a meteor. Not now nor not ever! Partner." She told me. "Are..... you ok?" I asked her. "Never better! I feel so fine that I can do this!" She said as she then jumps and did the splits and then jumps up and did a flip.... Twenty times without landing on the ground to do more flips.

"......sure?" I said in even more confusion. "Now, I'd you don't mind. I would like you to leave. I'm busy." She told me. "Doing what?" I asked. "Doing farmer things. Things that you wouldn't understand!" she said as she slams the door. ".....okay.... Clearly something odd is going on." I said as I then heard someone crowing like a rooster which I walked away from the house to see Big Mac on top of the house crowing like a Rooster.

"Big Mac! What are you doing!?" I called out. "I'm guarding the barn! Uh I mean, get off my lawn!" Granny Smith answered instead. "Uhhhh.... What are guarding?" I asked her. " nothing!? Now leave!" She said. "Then how come you don't want me to know what's inside the barn?" I asked. "Applejack is caring for a sick Winona and she doesn't need you bothering her." She told me which I didn't believe. Mainly because of two things.

One, Aj was in the house and second..... Winona was currently trying to kick an Apple tree like AJ and Big Mac would do. "Uh huh.... Let me just see if she needs help?" I said as I walked to the barn door.

"Come on, chicken! Here, chicky-chicky-chicky! Here, chick-chick-chick-chicky! Come here! Ugh! Come here!" Spike was saying at the chicken house trying to get a feather. "Not the face, not the face! No! Hey! Stop! Quit it!" Spike yelled as he was being attacked by chickens when all of the sudden (y/n) came crashing down out of nowhere scaring the chickens off of Spike. "Owwww!!!" (Y/n) yelled as he/she was on the ground. "Didn't.... See that coming...." (Y/n) said as he/she collapse.

"Okay.... I have a lot of questions.... But I don't have time. Twilight needs this!" Spike said as he leaves. "I think.... I need.... Some help."

"So..... what am I here for?" Fluttershy asked me as we were hiding behind a bush spying on the Apple family. "I need your help with getting into that farm." I told her. "Erm.... Why?" She asked me. "Well, I need you because..... honestly you were the only one not busy and I just didn't want to do this alone." I told her. "Even Twilight?" "...Yeah." I said as we sneakily walked to the back.

"And uhh.... Why are we trying to go to the back way?" She asked me. "Did you notice how the Apple family have been acting?" I asked her. "Umm... no? I only saw Granny at the door." She said. "Oh.... We'll they've been acting odd and Granny is not letting anyone in." I told her. "And you want me to fly up to that window and see what's in there?" She said as I looked up to see the window.

"Uhhhh.... Yeah.... That could work." I said not thinking. "Or you could leave?" I heard the familiar voice of Aj. We turned around to see her and Granny standing behind us. "Where's your hat?" Fluttershy asked AJ. "I don't wear a hat. Applejack is the one that wears it." She said. "And you are certainly not welcomed here. We wouldn't want AJ to be bothered when she is trying to heal Winona." Granny said.

"She is!? Let me see her?" Fluttershy said. "And why should we?" Aj asked. "She tends to animals and helps them get better." I said. "Oh, why didn't you say so. We could use some help." Granny said as they motion us to follow. We got to the front door which they opened and we saw Applebloom sitting next to a Lunatone!?

"Toonnneee...." It said with a sickly tone.... Not like a horror sound but like it's in pain. We walked towards the Lunatone which was on the ground and we can see that it's had some cracks on the top of it. "Please.... Help me..." Applebloom said which probably means that the Lunatone is using her to communicate.... And that it is controlling the Apple family, that's important as well.

"Oh you poor dear, what happened?" Fluttershy asked it. "I....I was.... Flying around the planet like usual... when I was hit.... By a barrage of rocks... which sent me.... To... the planet...." Lunatone said though AJ. "And I'm guessing that when Aj found you. You got scared and did some sort of mind control on them?" I guessed. "I had.... No choice." Lunatone said though Granny said. "Well you shouldn't have done. That's not nice. Now release them so I could help you." Fluttershy told it.

"Ugh!...." Granny, Applebloom, and AJ said as they were rubbing their heads which means that Lunatone had released them from its control. "What in tarnation happened?" Aj said in confusion. "Why am I wearing your hat?" Applebloom asked Aj as we then heard a loud crashing sound from outside. "Owwwww!!!!!" We heard Big Mac yelled indicating that he must've been on top of the house when Lunatone released everyone from its control. "I'll take him to the hospital." I said as I left to get Mac to the hospital.

"I'm back! Your not gonna-" "shhhh!!!" I heard someone shush me as I entered the library. "In her." I heard Twilight whispered yell from the other room. I entered to see her laying on the carpet next to the fireplace and Spike was laying beside and he was asleep while Owlowiscious was on top of the chair. "Sorry." I whispered as I laid down next to them.

"So.... I see I missed something." I said. "Yeah, it was a long day..... you?" She asked me. "Same.... Apparently the Pokémon Lunatone had crashed into the farm and mind controlled the Apple family because it was injured and scared." I told her. "Lunatone?" "A Pokémon from space." I said. "Wait? There's a Pokémon from space! Here!" Twilight says nearly waking Spike up. "Yeah. Fluttershy is currently taking care of it at her place. Also Big Mac is on the hospital, we're gonna have to visit him tomorrow." I told her.

"I have to see it! .... Oh ummm.... We should probably do that." Twilight embarrassingly smiled at the last part. "Wait? What happened to him?" "Let's just say he was at a place you don't want to be released from being mind controlled." I said. "Okay? .....So I'm sure you want to know what was going on when you left." Twilight said as she began her day after I left.
