Pages Eight to Fifteen: Hive Mind

The next morning Nova stirred restlessly under the covers of her
own bed for a change. After last night's fiasco Bolt and Nova
had settled any differences between them enough for the Pegasus
to move back into her own home. The Pegasus stated at the
ceiling, the bags underneath her eyes so profound that she could
probably start carrying tiny things in them like a squirrel
carrying nuts in its cheeks.
Upon seeing Silver Bolt fast asleep in his basket, Nova silently
rolled out of her bed and flew out the open window for the
morning; carrying the book with her. She flew through town, her
mind wondering about when would be an appropriate time for her
to test her new-found abilities and what else she could learn.
A prickling cold wave engulfed the Pegasus, this time she felt
as though her body was more susceptible to these pulses since
the cold waves coming from the book appeared to feel colder this
time. She landed on a rooftop and opened it. About eight more
pages have appeared, this time the writing was so tiny and
compressed together that it looked as though someone tried to
cram the text from what should have fit into double the amount
of pages.
"Hive Mind" she read the title out loud. The scripture for this
particular skill looked as though it were written from a highly
reputable academic text. These pages detailed on how Nova could
expand her ability to control a single dragon's mind and
influence to close to a hundred all at once. However there was a
long list of potential consequences which may follow should Nova
use the ability for longer than her own body can cope with.
Being rather dismissive of these warnings and eager to learn as
much as she can that was ponily possible, Nova flicked to the
last page and placed a hoof to the emblem.
A wave of coldness like no other she had experienced froze over
her. It felt as though all her internal organs had frozen over
briefly, she couldn't move at all for up to a few minutes. Soon
afterwards these sensations subsided as the Pegasus took flight,
unknowingly that she had just aged an extra ten years.
(So there might just be a tad bit of Starcraft influencing me
today. Bite me. :P )

The pegasus flew up to the tallest building found in the centre
of the town. She closed her eyes and exhaled, letting the gentle
breeze flow through her mane, giving the impression of
flickering fire. She could sense the presence of the dragons
within the town - Silver Bolt back at home, Ember in her estate
and even Sparky, whose presence seems to disappear and
reappeared frequently.
She could even very, very vaguely detect the presence of the
dragon phantoms who had been following her since their
summoning, but she couldn't exactly pin point their exact
location.

Bolt awoke to a rude shock sensing a great surge of power he
tosses off his blankets and kicks the door open. Bolt reached
the source of the power spotting it atop town hall. He looked
closer noting it was Nova he smirks then begins laughing like a
mad man knowing more power was coming his way. "Ha...ha..ha..ha
HAHAHAHAHHAHHAHAHHAHAAHAA."

Sensing the horde upon him Bolt rolls out a scroll on the ground
and places a claw onto a map of New South Tails from Canterlot.
"Yes at this rate my plan will soon come to fruition." He tears
a line from New South Tails to Canterlot and claws an X into the
castle then looking up to Nova. "With the rate at witch Nova is
gaining power....This is gunna be fun." The black dragon smiles
and looks to the heavens watching her loose her mind.

As Nova opened her eyes again the dark matter which engulfed her
Cutie Mark churned and sparked as she could feel a change within
her. She looked at the town around her and simply raised her eye
brows. The way she leapt off the building and landed on the
ground next to Silver Bolt seemed less pony-like and more
reminiscent of that of a a dragon.
"Silver Bolt, I'll need you to take me somewhere." she said
simply, although it also seemed like it quite unlike her own.

Bolt set the scroll on fire then looked up to Nova. "I had plans
of my own and you will help me carry them out." He said backing
her into corner.

Nova's Cutie Mark crackled as she stepped forward, her eyes
staring daggers into his, "I do nothing to your accord."
The phantoms scattered and regrouped behind the pegasus,
silently growling and hissing at the dragon.

He smiles and bends a knee before her. " You really are the
destining to lead all of us. Your commands.... my master." He
said his dark smile growing wide as he gnashes his fangs.

"Hmm, I don't know about all of you, but enough for me to get by
in life." she replied, "There is one last skill I will need to
learn, but it needs to be in the right place and time. The
Fallen Spire can only be found and accessed by dragons, and you
are going to take me there before the sun sets. Today."

Hearing Nova bring up the spire Bolt smiles bigger and gets down
lying low so she man climb atop his back. " So my Master you
seek the damned bone yard. What plans do you have for the fallen
remains of my kind and kin." He said his white eyes giving a
lifeless glare.
