//-------------------------------------------------------// Reaper's apprentice: Arc 1 -by FlaminMetssu- //-------------------------------------------------------// //-------------------------------------------------------// Death took my memory //-------------------------------------------------------// Death took my memory "Ohhhh man my body...it feels like I was hit by a..by a....I-I can't remember!" Inside a dark room a human laid on the ground he was awake but frozen in the form he was last left, in the form he died. Broken legs, broken ribs, bleeding organs, he felt no pain but died instantly but how? He doesn't know but one things scares him the most.....where he was. His mind raced but he felt calm no heart to pump his blood he felt cold. he couldn't talk because he had nothing to say or wasn't able to talk. Until a figure has spoken walking towards him it wasn't a person but just shadow. "Death isn't very....nice is it?" It walked slow with a raspy voice and he felt the chilling cold air rush past his face. He shook his head no on the verge of crying. The shadow continued "You have died my little human the reason why you aren't in.....one of the kindoms..." It stops walking. "....Because you have a equal amount of sins as much as a good person you are...you must go to the kindom of the dead." The human's eyes widen out of surprised, he doesn't remember what he did! "But.." The shadow holds out a shadow covered hand and healed the human some how he gets up and looks at the shadow. "...I need your help." He nods to see that his heart was normal and his cloths was fix whatever death needed he was ready. ~ "Please tell me he is alright" a voice speaks concerned. "I'm telling you he is alright princess he..just....passed out?" another voice sounding unsure. "I'm getting more doct-" The human wakes up in pain. "Oh my head and my back and my.....everything!" He rubs his..well everything. "Move slowly you have fractures everywhere in your body..to be honest you should be dead from a beat down like that...not normal." The good doctor puts a hoof on the humans chest cause him to stay still. "Umm..yeah sorry about that." The blue pony god princess says walking up to him."I did not know you where death's apprentice." She sat right next to him "The names Princess Luna would you mind starting from the begining please." She looked at him calmly and assured him he will be alright by telling his side of the story which she should've did anyway. "ugg..sure it started like this." he begins his story of how he got there. ~ 30 MINS AGO ~ "Long ago the creators of time and space needed items to create. So they invented tools of some sorts to ensure balance as they create. For example I am one of them. I am Death to make sure that life is passed on to the next kindom.Yet there are more items each of them more powerful than the last." Death looks at the human."One world I can no longer get to because of and item of massive power is keeping me away....a group of creatures lead by another named Nictis has this item....he was mine to send away to hell!" Death said coldly the human flinched a little from the wind coming from no where but asked a question just to be sure. "You want me to go to this world and obtain this item." "Items not really sure how many but I'd guess seven." Death walks around a bit. "Okay sounds easy but why can't I remember anything? You know from my past life?" He scratchs his head. "I erased your memory the things you did will ruin you and also caused your end not acceptable this is your only time of redemption so I gave you a little help." "I see.."He thinks a little "what did I do?" "You'll be meeting will one of the creators tools right now."The voice gets him out of his trance. Death raised a bar or a cylinder glowing blue."This is Grendal your weapon he can transform into any melee weapon and absorb evil souls and good souls when their time has come. He will become stronger as he does also he can detect enemies you can and cannot handle be good to him." Him? To the human its a well...it. The human picks up the weapon and it transform into a scyth."whoa!" He jumps a little. "Before I take you to this world you need a name the creatures there a smart. One of them very very VERY smart so make one up as you go along." "Alright then call me George."He says proudly but Death was not saying anything."What?" "Nothing" Death knows that the world names come from their talent.Death raises its hands and flashed him away. "Boy I hope Luna got my message before I-ah shit." Death sees a unread scroll on Luna's desk from a portal she casted. ~ George pops up in a room full of complete darkness and then yells. "Hello!" Worst mistake of his life. "THREAT LEVEL: OMEGA!" Grendal speaks? The voice caught him of guard but a even louder voice mad him drop his only defence weapon. He couldn't see anything but a large figure has appeared behind him. "WHO ARE YOU!?"George Jumps and falls over knocking Grendal under a desk. "I-I'm.." *WHAM!* "OH...OH. MY. GOD!" Another large hoof sends him flying into a wall. He stumbles up "Please let me explain" he was now bleeding from his face, she walks slowly to him with anger in her eyes, when she got close enough she raise her hoof then- ~ "Thats when I toss you around and stomped on you a couple times before reciving Death's message for the second time." Luna finishs for him.She sees his face has no emotion on it. "Yeah" He grins afterward the whole thing was painful it was something to smile at. "Heh sorry" "Like I said NOT normal" The doctor throws in. He gets up off the floor and lean on the wall The pain was horrific. "W-wheres Grendal?" He looks around trying to find his scyth.Then sees it under a desk. He walks over and reachs for it and blacks out under the pain.Luna sees the object he was reaching for a picks it up with her magic. He has a large mission ahead of him, I better get him to a hospital. "Doctor here." she tosses him the cylinder. He catchs it and stores it in his bag. Luna picks up George and walks out her room. Author's Note This is short because I have more in stored for the next chapter where the good doctor tells us his name and we meet Celestia. But Georges first battle will be on chapter three.Trust me these are going to be longer. Its also going to have like a RPG to it soooo yeah hope you enjoy. //-------------------------------------------------------// A storm //-------------------------------------------------------// A storm George pops up in the black room once again. After being beaten by Luna of course. He looks around to see were Death is but sees nothing. "Death you there I need to talk to you." He yells for him.Nothing. When he turns he see a glowing white light, it was blinding. Then it fades out to find death in a cloak no longer in shadow form."You called?" The voice was so nice not demonic. He flips the hood off to show that he was a SHE!? Pale skin and black eyes with light blue hair, a mystic beauty. "Whoa! ummm you never told me you were a girl." He was confused now. Like who knew. "I never needed to tell you."She smiles."Now I have to apologize for Luna she doesn't like reading and almost killed you thats why your here sadly." "WAIT I'M DEAD...FUCK!" He yells surprised that he died five seconds by a pony. "Don't worry your having a near death experience." "Oh ok but...ummm I don't know if i can do this...reaping thing THAT was too close and shes the good guy." he says waving his arms for effect. "Well I'm sorry but your all I got right now and THIS is your second chance."She shot back. "Damn it...ok well at least tell me how to use Grendal. I can't seem to figure out a stick." "You and gredal have to be one think alike and listen to each other. I sent you to Luna to train with her its fast that way." "Why?" "She is the best I can think of and she is my best friend too. Don't get me wrong shes unstable at times but shes going to help you on your journey." She stops and looks at him. "I shouldn't do this but..." She raises a hand at him a launches a dark blue light him knocking him over with surprise. "...Humans can't have magic because they have the power to do anything anyway with kinetic energy powers they developed from within."George gets up to see his hands flowing with dark blue energy. "But hey now you can stand a chance." She talks with a little sadness in her voice, somethings up. "Hey thanks you know I can do this because of this...um?" "Magic?" "Magic yes thank you." "Well time to send you back." "Right bye then." Then a flash sends him jumping up out of a bed in a hospital room. Surpising Luna and the doctors. "You've been out for the whole day. Celestia couldn't talk to you." The doctor puts George back on the bed. "The names Medical Syringe I haven't said my name yet so might as say it now." He smiles. George now noticed he was a skinny unicorn with a light grey coat and white/gray mane not creepy at all. "Your in this bed for the next three weeks until your joints repair itself or I could heal you...IF you want that is." "Syringe you know what happened to the last humans you healed not a good idea." Luna said flatly. George wants to know what happened. "That was two years ago Luna I think I can do this." He looks at George "So do you want me to help you?" "Hmmm....what the hell go ahead." Luna bit her hoof and Syringe smiles and charges his horn. The wounds starts to fade and the pain was disappearing. Syringe smiles at his work. "Thank you thank you I'm awesome I know." He bows to no one, showing off. "Well you healed him now we can start your training."Luna claps her hooves together smiling. "Uh oh a shit storms a brewin" Syringe laughs out. "The last person she trained, had lasted one day." "NOT TRUE." "Really...I'm pretty sure he left to the badlands after your first training session." "Ummm..guys where Grendal?" George cuts in. "Who?" Syringe didn't know who Grendal was. "My scyth its like a cylinder." George puts his hands in a way to make it look like he was carring a small stick or a baseball bat. "OH I hav it right here." Syringe opens his bag and gives it back to George. "Thank you....Grendal can...you..umm hear me?" They waited for a response except Syringe he was looking at George like he was crazy. All of that changed when the scyth talked. "Yes I can." "HOLY FUCK" George and Syringe both said in sync. Luna wasn't surprised. He starts smiling from the pure fact that my scyth can talk. "So...um tell me about yourself Grendal." "I come with a mode to change forms and detect enemies from a distance." Sweet George thought. Luna seems to be waiting on George about something."What?" Luna raises a brow. "Oh right training." He hops out of bed and the three heads to the castle training room."So you guys talked about other humans here." George starts another conversation. Luna thinks awhile before answering."Yes there are humans here, Death is...was one of them." "Wait Death was one of them?" "Yes her real name was Vass Clementine." "Whoa so you guys are friends huh?" "Thats right." They kept walking through out the corridors till the group found a huge trianing field. "Alright lets start training if I remeber the scyth does most of the work so don't go crazy just swing it around got to do it with grace..."She walk ahead of George. "...and BLOCK!" She swings a sword at George with magic but he jumps out of the way."Don't just run. You must learn to BLOCK!" This time he was ready he takes out Grendal and pulls off a full block. She moves at a fast speed and comes to his right."BLOCK!" George blocks but the force sends him flying towards Syringe. "UG...is she like this when she battles?" He grunts himself up. "NOPE I told you not to do it." "NO YOU DIDN'T." "Well...I was thinking it-oh no" His eyes saw something behind George. "Umm...behind you" "crap" George moves in time to dodge Luna's sword. "ARE YOU CRAZY!?"She pulls the sword out of the ground and points it at him. "Real danger is better to train from don't you agree?" "no" "HEEYAA!" "oh FUCK!"George jump out of the way again. "George"Grendal speaks agian. "umm yes?" "She moves at incredible speeds do you wish to use the Kusari-Gama transformation.?" "Yes yes what ever it is yes." Grendal took form of a Scyth to a chained scyth. Now he can catch her only one problem how does he use it? "Ummhow do I use you?" he says while searching around it. "Throw me." George threw the top part of Grendal and sent him flying the it seems to be following Luna but when she saw it, she only smiles uh oh.She catchs it with her mouth and pulled George in. Then aims the sword at him and strikes downward. George moves and a flash happens to Grendal where he turns into a Black samuri sword. "BLOCK!" He looks up to see Luna swinging again. He blocks gets up then strikes at her but blocks his attack. "George you obtained mage now is a good time to use it." Grendal says, George concentrates to release a dark blue arua. Luna was surprised she never seen humans use magic. George feels a little more powered up and swings her away."I could get use to this." Luna walks up slowly with her sword smiling "Now Luna..." George strikes a pose with his sword. "LETS DANCE! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WiJveC5kbKE)" "Fine then HAVE AT THEE!" Luna charges at him, Syringe watchs in awe. The guards seem to be watching too. Both of them clash swords and George didn't know how truly strong she really is. She starts to over power him but he swings her away and strikes at her once more only to parried. She trips him to the floor but he catchs himself with his right hand and swings at her with sword with his left hand but she jump in time. He jumps and tries to hit her but she was flying. Then clouds start to circle her with thunder and lightning. Her eyes was glowing, she raise her sword and her sword was hit by lightning. "OK LUNA THATS ENOUGH!" Syringe yells for her but no dice George can only watch whats happening. She floats down with a lightning sword sparking."THREAT LEVEL: RED OMEGA" Grendal forms back to his scyth and Luna charges at him the dirt on the floor flys upward of her speed. "Throw me and control me with your magic." Grendal says and George does it. The scyth was luanched at full speed towards. Luna doesn't see it coming but moves at the last second. He pulls Grendal back in time to block."Grendal dual scyths." Grendal forms two scyths and he swings at her, she move in time but her necklace was taken off. "Its time to end this Luna but after this lets get some pancacks." She kicks him away sending him flying. "Yes after you beat me." George gets up and feels a large amount of pain in side. "Grendal double egde sword its time to end this." Luna surrounds herself with purple and black magic like a shield. George charges at her with his sword covered in dark blue aura. and slashs her shield of magic multipule times causing the shield to slowly fall apart he wasn't going to let her win. Luna was stunned that a human can break a shield like this theres only one explanation for this Vass's magic. The shield breaks and Luna launches at him they both clash causing a part of the castle to fall. The thunder and lightning made the scene dramatic. "ITS OVER!" Luna yells striking down, George striked upwards "OH PLEASE!" A blast of magic and lightning strikes down on the castle training ground. Syringe got up to see who won, the dust went away to find George on the ground and Luna still up. "Whoa you won Luna...again...like always." Luna walks towards him giving him Grendal "Of course." She walks away towards the door then faints. Syringe chuckles. "We'll call this a tie....WHOS UP FOR PANCAKES?" "HELL YEAH!" A guard yells out. Author's Note Well there you go I said chapter three for battle but I said FUCK IT. training time. Oh yeah Grendal's voice sounds like Bladewolf's //-------------------------------------------------------// Ponyville...yay //-------------------------------------------------------// Ponyville...yay George, Luna, and Syringe all joined the many gaurds in the dinning hall for well...pancakes. George had a large order of them, not eating for a whole day then train with a phyco princess of doom makes you hungry. He wants something to wash it down, so he calls for a little service. The pony coming to him was nice until well the milk thing... "Can I get something to drink please?" He asked politely "Sure I'll get you some malk." She began to walk away. "Wait di-did you say MALK (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ty62YzGryU4)?" He was trying not to laugh. "Yes thats what I said "MALK (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KHh9zxxjCik)." "Say milkshake." "Milkshake." "Now say milk." "Malk." Now that pissed him off. "Syringe do you here this." "Yeah she said Melk" George was now staring at Syringe. "Oh god never mind just give me some milk." He smiled angrily as she went to get the Malk. Luna wanted something on her pie she ordered with her pancakes. She can eat but hey no ones perfect. "Can I please get some cool wHip please?" That sent him over the edge."AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH." He face plants his own pancakes. Everyone looked at him but shrugged and continued eating. ~ Outside a changling camp was a pony who command the group of creatures his named was Nictis the beholder of one of the legendary items Death wants. Right now he feels a great power entering equestria that power was George from the fight. He smiles knowing that he will yet agian another reapers life. "Sax...I want you to attack Ponyville." He told the figure covered in darkness. "Yes sir" She did what she was told. Nictis was happy Vass sent another Reaper after all he was prepared for anything even the princesses. ~ George had to get a new outfit, his old ones was torn and dirty. So Princess Luna wants a master to design his clothes. Only one person she had one person in mind. Rarity, she would be perfect for the job.George agreed to go Syringe will take him there. Luna has been up and about long enough.She couldn't take him. As they left to a small town George was complaining how far away it is. "TWO MILES!?" He yells on the way to the trainstation. Syringe was only smiling on the way there. George sat back on the seats of the train. "Whats this place called anyway?" "Ponyville my parents live there, so maybe I could show you around." Syringe smiled at Georges reaction to that. "Wha? OH no no no we are only going to this Rarity's place and thats it." He folds his arms. "Thats a little to bad." "Why?" "Because theres this mare who LOVES welcoming people, making parties, showing them around, and-really I don't know what she did for all the humans that came here." "What happens if I hid?" "She'll find you...she all ways does." Syringe's expression went dark for a second before continuing. "She is fun though...just make some friends." "..." "And get some rest Pinkie Pie will be waiting." Two hours later the two pals got off the train, well one of them was pulled from the train. Both of them went to mian road to find Rarity's house. They were stopped by the pink forth wall breakin' tons of fun Pinkie Pie. "HI" She said in his face. George jumps back out of surprise."GAH...hello" "Don't be scared I'm Pinkie Pie." She held out a hoof so he shakes it. Then something happened she starts to deflate. George doesn't know what to do, his mind racing, his heart pounding, he starts to panic then a burst of cake batter hits him from behind, the fright makes him flip upside down frozen. Pinkie hops over him laughing. "That was priceless...hello...are you ok?" Syringe walks up and grabs George with his magic. "Maybe you should try again later Pinkie." He walks away heading towards the objective. ~ "Faint goat syndrome...when did you get that?" Syringe asking George the manikin. George only shrugged only to feel pain in his shoulder. Rarity walks over to only yell at him for moving. George apologized for moving while she worked. Their luck that Luna is paying for it or Rarity would give it away for free. Took about an hour for Goerge to try out his new outfit. It was a black overcoat and all deck out on the inside to carry Grendal his scyth. His shirt was dark blue and alttle heavy. The pants was all black and the beltbuckle was hanging off to the side. Kind of a gothic look for a person like him. He tries it on anywaym, it was perfect fit. Rarity was proud of her new outfit making skills ever since the humans came along. While Syringe want something to wear too, George makes small talk with Rarity. "Thanks again Rarity for the outfit." "Anything for the Princess and friends." She smiles "How long were you doing this?" "All my life." "How come Luna knows you so well?" "Well its kind of a long story...to shorten it my friends and I defeated her long ago when she was evil." George was surprised he couldn't beat her so how did they do it but he let her continue. "We are the elements of harmony." George had no idea what to say about that he had no idea what those are but... "Do you think I can meet your friends?" Rarity looks at George confused from the question why does he need to meet them. "Of course you can darling we're having picnic today I could introduce you to them." "Hey guys what do you think?" Syringe yells out for the outfit he was wearing a blouse that seems like it was for guys Rarity was going to say something but George stops her. They all leave to the pinic with George thinking something in his mind. "If they are strong enough to take on Luna then I need them as allies....ug Ponyville....yay." They meet a group of ponies getting ready for the picnic and Rarity introduces them. "Girls this is Princess Luna's friends: George and Syringe." They all look at the two dude smiling before the Rainbow maned one yells. "Hey Syringe...nice blouse." They all break out laughing and Syringe tries to rip it off blushing. Once done he looks at George angrily.Rarity continues. "That one is Rainbow dash." She points to Pinkie pie "This is-" Pinkie interupes "George your ok!" How did she know his name? But he only responded "Yup!" Rarity continues as she points to a yellow hiding Pegasus "Fluttershy come say hi." She pokes from behind a Purple unicorn "he-hello" aww shes adorable George's heart meld so he deciced to reply. "Hello Fluttershy" She flips up sidedown frozen. Syringe and George looks at each other surprised then Syringe smiles and whispers tearing up from laughing hard. "She perfect for y-"OH LOOK A THING!" They all turn to see what it was.*WHAM* They all turn back to see Syringe on the ground. They all look at George and he came up with excuse "He loves eatting dirt." They all shrug before continuing. "I'm Twilight Sparkle." she raises out a hoof, George looks at her trying to see if this was a prank but he sees nothing wrong and he shakes the hoof. "Well lets settle down shall we?" Rarity lays on a couch while everyone else sits on the grass. Does anyone else know whats that about? George thinks for a sec before sitting. Nice town, Nice ponies, and nothing can go wrong right now. Grendal speaks up: WRONG. "crap." Author's Note MALK!! hehe anyway tell me if there is any grammar errors my glasses broke and I cant see well thanks everyone!! //-------------------------------------------------------// Side chapter: Where is Applejack? //-------------------------------------------------------// Side chapter: Where is Applejack? Earlier.... Applejack was up by sunrise to buck some apples, she got up and went to the wash room to fix her mane. After five seconds of looking in the mirror she stated "eh" and grabbed her hat leaving the room. Once she got down the stairs she said "hi" to the now awake Applebloom. Grabbing an apple from the fruitbasket she walked out the door. She was bucking apples near the entrance of the farm when a white coat pony walked by. Applejack saw her and decided to greet her. "Well howdy Rarity." She greeted happliy "Hello Applejack I just wanted to come over to tell you about the little get together the girls and I have this afternoon." "Well that seems mighty fine to me." Rarity smiled before continuing. "I got a letter from Princess Luna this morning about some clothing...its kinda strange a human needs it." "Another human huh?" Applejack said puzzled "Well if the Princess wants you to make ah outfit for the fella I'd say he's alright...right?" Rarity shrugged. "Well for making this visit short but the princess gave me a list of things it should have on it." She takes out the scoll from her sattlebag (which I totally forgot to mention) and gave it a look before walking off mumbling. Applejack walked off before hearing a loud. "GEMS FOR WHAT?" she shrugged and continued working. ~ "You hear that...she going to a get together." A changling said behind Sax to another one of his comrades. Hiding behind a tree. "Yes I did looks like their princess has that one tied into this one already." Another one said. "Quiet do you want her to hear us." Sax said gritting her teeth. "I'm going in. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V3KN_bLjzpM)." "Ma'am whats your plan?" "Well I'm going to change into her form so I can find this reaper...." She walked from behind the trees. "...Besides thats my nature." She walked towards Applejack smiling. Applejack turned around to see a pony walking towards her. Now Applejack doesn't know it but Sax's was born a unicorn but has the ablity to change like a changling. She follows Nictis after becoming one of the most nuctorious theives in Equestria. Happily Applejack walked up to her, Sax was glad to see that this was going to be a easy beat down. Her eyes glowed red with magic stopping Applejack. "Hello cowgirl!" She transformed into Applejack. Applejack stood there stunned before charging at Sax. ~ Once she put the brutaly beaten Applejack in the farmhouse she went to her team to have a chat with them. "Follow me from a distance we're going to that picnic for that Rarity." They all nodded and went separate ways. Sax went to the exit of the farm and found the hat of Applejack, picked it up and put it on. "Thanks cowgirl." She laughed and walked away. After a couple of minutes of walking down the dirt road, one by one a pony walked right next to her. she whispered "I said from a distance." "Don't worry ma'am we got your back until open field." They contiued walking she smiled to the fact that they have taken one of the six thats going to the picnic. Once they got to the open field they scattered to the forest off in the distance. She sees the rest of the so called friends and spots two other people there. "That must be him!" she walked towards them but she remembered something she can't talk southern. She kicked herself...no matter I can take someone else. She sat right behined the pink maned pegasus and spoke after they got done meeting up. "Hey isn't that one of your...uh gritters Fluttershy...heading towards the forest?" Fluttershy looked at her puzzled for a sec before Sax continued "I'll get...'em maybe you should come with?" "O-ok?" Fluttershy follows her to the forest. Sax was pleased to see that how weak normal ponies are. George was having a good time before seeing a orange pony and Fluttershy walk away into the forest. He saw something move as they moved like green eyes following them. What ever it was it was close to them. He got up and began to follow. "George?" Syringe called before getting up to follow. George called back "Gotta take a leak." Syringe sat back down before yelling "OK!" Then George was out of site. Fluttershy was scared they moving deeper and deeper into the forest and applejack was silient. "umm..Applejack?" no responce "M-maybe we should head back?" Applejack stopped and turned a little. "no need dear we're here." Fluttershy felt sick from fright. "W-whats h-here?" Applejack turned completly smiling with red eyes. "Why the place your going to die of course!" Fluttershy couldn't believe what she heard. Then Sax dropped her disguise showing her true form. "Oh it will be quick." she smiled. //-------------------------------------------------------// Her reaper... //-------------------------------------------------------// Her reaper... Goerge walked down the forest and heared something."Oh it will be quick." He ducks down to see whats happening. Once he gets a good view he sees Fluttershy on the ground from a mare and over hears their talk. "W-what happen to Applejack?" she backs away but Sax moves closer and closer before answering. "I put her in her farmhouse." She smiles and Fluttershy starts to cry. "Oh don't worry I didn't kill her I didn't have time to." Fluttershy looks up horrified. "I have to catch that reaper you just met." Fluttershy was puzzled a reaper? "I haven't had a kill in a while so HOLD STILL!" she charged up her horn and fired, Fluttershy braced for death.... And THAT is what she got. Goerge blocks the shot with Grendal the scyth while he faced Fluttershy. "You ok?" She noddeds "Ok then I need you to run." Sax was pissed at first but then saw that she had him in front of her. "Well if it isn't the reaper...come to save the day." She said walking back "Boys! Get 'em" Glowing eyes popped from all directions he stands in defence making sure Fluttershy is going to ok. The first of group jumped past him and striked but missed due from having a blade through the neck. His head fell from a clean slice. Two more popped up on each side. "Grendal dual scyths." Grendal split taking form of two mini scyths. They jumped towards him with daggars but he blocks and counters they fell with ease. Sax frowned her comrades wasn't very easy to handle. They were her friends...brothers and like that taken out. She takes out her Staff with two blades on each end. From her friend she now bears this weapon. She gritted her teeth before a mass amount of power flows from her she yells. "YOU'LL PAY! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8tyc-Efgugs)" She leaps at him faster than he thought moving Fluttershy out of way he braces. The clash of weapons sent a power struggle. She was powerful enough to send him flying away only a couple of feet. "GEORGE!" Fluttershy yells from fright of her hero. Sax looked at Fluttershy and raised her weapon. "OH NO YOU DON'T BITCH!" He tackles her away from Fluttershy. Sax kicks him off and charged her horn and fired George blocks but was sent flying once again. He drops Grendal so he uses his fists covered in magic. Leaping at her and slaming his hoof she screams in pain flying away heading towards Ponyville. George runs grabs Grendal and Fluttershy then leaps in the air with a power boost of magic. Sending them flying high and he appeares where the others are dropping off Flutters. Twilight saw the explosion and had a questionable look on her face but George stops her. " Not now fighting." He runs off with fast speed. They all look at Syringe and he smiles and walks away. George stops to see a injured Sax walking out of a destroyed house. She looks at him with rage charges insanly.He braces and counters punching her in the stomach. Sax holds her gut in pain and uses her magic to grab her staff with her magic she hops in the air spinning sideways like a wheel head towards George. This time he didn't know what to do but block but she slices his back causing him to kneel in pain. It went through his armor bleeding. Now he knows not to do that. She comes again with the same attack but this time he uses his something else. "Grendal chain scyth" Grendal falls to a scyth covered in chain that way he can trap her with a attack. He strikes while moving out of the way. She becomes wrapped in chain and stoppes he pulls her toward he she flies against him stabbing her next to the heart. She spits blood while her head was next to his she whispers. "Y-you m-missed all t-the o-organs....." He replies to her."I wasn't going to kill you...I'm not heartless." He pulls the blade from her. "Bastard!" she grunts from the pain. "Your beaten...now....your going to give all the information I need...well after we get some medical attention of course." He smiles painly. Sax sat there holding ger wound. The others came with Syringe about time. He sits down ready to black out but pulls himself together. "Hey lady...WHERES APPLEJACK?" The rainbow mane pony flies in her face. Sax looked up and answered. "Why ahould I tell you?" she smiles Rainbow dash raises a hoof until George spoke up. "Please." Sax looks at him and gave in after a moment. "In the farmhouse and don't worry she just...beaten...up.." She blacks out. George gets up and picks up Sax and makes his way to the hospital. "You guys head for the farmhouse...I got her." The others stared at him for a sec and ran off except Fluttershy. "Fluttershy? Don't worry I got her." He assure her, Fluttershy takes flight and hovers she then quickly flies over and gave him a little peck on the cheek. "Thank you...for saving me." she blushs. "N-no problem." he say wincing in pain, Fluttershy flies away while he walks to the hospital. He felt great well not from the injury but a good feeling about his new friends. Now he cane take on anything. Once he makes it inside the place the nurse looks at him wide eyed. He struggles with one word before blacking out. "Check please." ~ "He is a reaper....a FREAKIN REAPER...does anuone have anything to say about that?" A voice says out. "W-well he saved my life I don't think he is that bad." another says out loud. "True Rainbow if he was bad he would handle us himself." "What about you Rarity did you know?" "Not at all darling Princess Luna just sent him for the outfit." "Oh oh hes waking up!" a happy voice says out loud also. "Oh crap my back."George wakes up in pain before seeing all the ponies from earlier in front of him. "Umm...hi." "Ok George why don't shed some light on this." Twilight says standing in front of everyone. George knew there was no other way to get out of this. So he explained everything. They all listened and pinkie pulls out some popcorn out of no where. when he ended they all where sileint for a sec. Rainbow dash spoke first "So you need our help huh?" "Yes please." "Fine I'm in." She says puffing out her chest. "Nobody messes with my friends." "Say did you guys find Applejack?" They all noded "Shes in the next room with Syringe said something about healing her." "Good good and Sax?" They all look at each other before answering. "Luna is talking to her." "Great I hope she doesn't do anything crazy." "Hey get some rest we'll be back some later time, were going to see Luna." "Ok later guys." They all walk out one by one as he wave good-bye, Fluttershy stops and smiles before walking off. Of course he smile back. If you think about it shes pretty cute. "See you tommarrow?" "That would be great." //-------------------------------------------------------// The Talk //-------------------------------------------------------// The Talk The next day was simple. All George had to do was lay in bed and begin healing, Syringe wanted to heal him but George declined because it was like a vacation to him. When he was reading a book a visiter came to check up on him. Fluttershy with a basket in mouth. He puts down his book which was daring doo and greet her. "Fluttershy whats up?" She trots in with a smile. She puts down the basket next to them. "Oh I thought maybe I could bring you some food. Rainbow tells me the hospital food is not that great." She starts to pull fruits and cakes out of the basket. The moment was quiet, really quiet the clock ticking was the only noise in the room. He picks up the cake, it was a strawberry short cake he never tried one. As he was about to take a bit he sees royal armor walking past the door with a large blue alicorn beside them. "Is something wrong?" Fluttershy also looking outside the door. "Maybe...maybe I should see whats up with the other guests." George getting up from the bed, it was hard but he could do it. Fluttershy was worried that he was pushing himself a little to much. She step back a little to let him step by. "Your still hurt...maybe you lay back down or sit on a wheel chair...your to injuried to walk." She says with worry in her voice. George only smiled as he got up completely. "Glad someone is looking out for me don't worry Fluttershy as long as I got my cake I'm fine." He grabs his cake. Fluttershy and George walks out the door. As they walk down they both walk to see two guards by a door. He approachs to find himself being stared down by the guards. "Halt!" Says guard one "None shall enter!" Says guard two "I see Luna is hel-" George speaks up only to be interruped by Guard one. "Thats Princess to you." George didn't want to continue any farther. ~ "You do understand what you did do you?" Luna says coldly staring at the injured mare. "Yes I do Princess and I regret nothing." Sax smiles back. "Fine then I sentence you to-" She stops from the door opening. "WHO DISTUR-" "Hey Luna you might want to pay those guards of yours a little more than normal now because they a knock the fuck out." George smiles walking and Fluttershy walking past knock out gaurds. Luna facehoofed seeing that George did that to her guards. "Why are you here your not suppose up from that injury." George stopped and turned his back to see the long cut from his shoulder to his hips. "Its not that bad." Fluttershy mouth dropped. "So...whats happening here?" George continued but Luna looks past him and George turns to see a even bigger alicorn looking down at him, he looks up to comment one word. "Whoa" "So your the new reaper I'm always hearing about." She smiles walking past with Syringe behind her. "Really I didn't know I was that famous." He puts on a big grin. "Oh yes from the destruction of the guards training grounds at the castle and a little bit of Ponyville I say you are very much known." She laughs as George's smile falls slowly into shame. "Dude why are you up...you know your badly hurt." Syringe sits down by the window. "Its not that bad." George waves him off. "Not that bad?" Syringe repeats but George ignores. "Plus I wanna make sure everything was fine in here." "Everything is fine." Luna says flatly "Is it?" George takes a bite of cake. "George is it? I sure you Ms. Sax will be fine." Celestia assures him. "I never got your name Princess." "Of course I forgot to introduce myself my name is Princess Celestia." She bows a little. George does the same but whispers next to her. "You know your a lot more calm than Luna she almost killed me when she saw me." Celestia laughs and Luna cocks hear brow. "Anyway I was about to have a chat with Sax here." George says waiting no one moves. "Alone." No one moves. "Please leave." Luna steps forward to get his attention. "She is very dangerous George and done very serious crimes." "Oh come on how bad can they be?" George waves a hand. Luna and Celestia looks at each other. "How about stealing the crown?" Luna speaks "Maybe it was dirty and she wanted to wash it and she lost it." George heard a Facehoof in the back. "Three times." *all facehoof* "And?" "She also robbed thousands of jules." "See not that bad." Luna was about to pounce on him from where she was at but Celestia spoke up. "Sister I think he wants a say in her sentence." Luna looks from Celestia to George then to Celestia agian. "Fine but we are right outside if anything goes wrong." They all began to walk out leaving George and Sax in the room alone. He walks over and sits on a chair ready for the talk. Seconds felt minutes and minutes felt like hours, he finally broke the silence. "Luna kinda mean isn't she?"George smile at her. "Yes it seems so." She says staring at the wall. "So...tell me why did you work for this Nictis guy anyway?" "Why should I tell you?" She glares at him. "Maybe because You really don't have any odds of escaping right now sooo yeah I gotta say a looong time behind bars." Sax rolls her eyes. "Fine." "I was about three when they found me says that I was left behind by someone. Whatever I was in a good family for awhile until one day I really wanted a doll from a little girl that was bulling me because I didn't have one. Little bitch. So one day I used my magic to change into her best friend and asked to play with it for awhile then right as she turned her back...I ran." She took awhile to think before contuing. "Next day I walked around with it making fun of her about it. Next thing I know it I got my cutie mark. After that the stealing never stopped I walked in as any mare or stallion and take what I want. At age fifteen I was discovered by that same brat. They all came for me in a riot and I ran for the woods knowing that my parents would be in some deep shit if I go back. Cold and alone I traveled the everfree to find a camp by a guy named Nictis says as long as I do what he says we can take on exsistance. I agreed and was introducted to changlings that was kicked from their hive by some queen. Anyway we spent the last three years togther and I made them my family really until..." "I killed them." George finishs for her. "Yeah...there I told you what I know so what now...send me away?" She looks at George as he gets up. "I was thinking something else than just sending you behind bars maybe community service picking up trash or something like that...you know I really am sorry about those guys." He walks to the door as he opens it he hears Sax whispers "So am I." ~ Four Days Later ~ "You said community service?" Sax says angrily as her and George walks down the street of ponyville. "Yes I did and it is...as my partner." He says smiling but Sax sighed. "Plus what was your old name anyway? That name Sax sounds like sex...like weird." "My real named is Misty Wind." She says flatly. "AWWW thats a nice name." He laughs but recives a kick to the thigh and yells out charlie horse. Misty smile at the results. They arrive at the Sugar cube corner the place Misty left with a hole in it. As they walk in the get a happy pink pony bouncing in front of them but George just gentle put his hand on her face and moves her out of the way. They take a seat to eat some cakes even though a reminder from Syringe flows throughout his mind. "Your getting fat I'd say a diet is in order...cut back on the cakes *takes strawberry short cake away* eat a banana." George smiles at the all sugar diet he is doing. The place wasn't very packed and only him, Pinkie, Misty, and some ponies with musical instraments practicingin the back. He hears one say "LETS KICK IT OCTY!" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZqB1MbXSeGk) The music was awesome as it went throughout the bakery. He felt a need that every person needs to do. So he got up and went to the bathroom leaving Misty alone in the main room to wait. She sat and enjoyed the music until... "So ya still not behind bars are ya?" A very angery mare slames her hoof on the table not scaring Misty at all. "It appears so cowgirl." She smiles at her. "If the Princess can't handle ya then looks like I'll have ta do it." She stares at Misty coldly. "How when I beat you silly." "You caught me off guard!" "You charged me first." Misty cocks a brow. "And I wouldn't try fighting in here ladies." George walks back to the table, Applejack turns to face George. "Don't worry Applejack she is with me." "How do you know my name?" She asks puzzled "Well after the little event I figured you are Applejack am I correct?" She nods "Good names George... now how about we not get into a big fight around this nice place they just fixed it." "Ah'm sorry pal but she needs a lickin." She steps from behind the table and walks over to Misty but is stopped by George. "She already got one...from me look we can't focus on the past we have bigger scum bags to stomp on." "Fine but don't you think this is over missy." Applejack walks away out the door. "What was she here for anyway?" Misty shrugs "Anyway we have to get back to the castle thats where we are staying." George sits down and orders cupcakes. "Alright...but I'm not sleeping in a seperate room." "Why?" "I don't trust anyone." "Even me." "I trust you because of the sentence thing." "Cool then I'm in the clear." "But" "But?" "I will not sleep with guards hangging around my door," "Alright alright I'll think of something... "Don't hurt yourself." "Wait...maybe one of my friends will take you in." He grabs his cupcake and Misty by the wrist and runs to the best place he can think of. ~ "W-WHAT?" "Please Flutters can you do this for me?" "I-I don't think I can!" "See lets just go." Misty began walking away. "Please Flutters she is just trying to adjust to pony kind again...I'll do anything anything." Fluttershy looks at him for a sec. George pulls the sad puppy face. She sighs before giving in. "O-ok" "YEAH!" "But?" "You have to keep watch of her everyday she is staying here." George pulls her in a thank you hug before calling Misty back over. "Trust me Flutters you won't even notice her." Misty walks up to Fluttershy and nods then jumps high up into a tree. George facepalms "I guess shes sleeping there...well I gotta go AND MISTY WILL BE ON HER BEST BEHAVIOR!" He yells. Misty wave a hoof from the tree. "Thanks again Fluttershy." He hugs her again even longer this time she does the same back. "As long as you watch her here." she replies back. "Get a room you two." came from the tree they stop hugging then George left heading back to the castle. "God I'm going to prank her soooo hard." George mutters to himself. //-------------------------------------------------------// Nature //-------------------------------------------------------// Nature Nictis sat at his camp with his changling group knowing that Sax has failed but still lived so he has came up with another idea. He gets up from his seat and moves towards the the rest of the changlings. They all stop what they were doing to see what he wants. He doesn't say anything he just scans at them and points to one of his best his name was Freed . He gets up and moves towards his commander then salutes. "Commander what is it you want?" "Sax has failed Freed." Freed went wide eyed "She has fallen?" "No she now work with them." "How do you of this sir?" "This item right here." Nictics raises a gem carved in the shape of a eye. "One can see many things with this...but this is not what I want I have a mission for you." "Yes?" "There is a town south of here that needs a lttle message from me and I need you to deliver it." He points north. "A dragon north of here owes me a favor now I'm calling it fetch him for me and lead him towards the town." Freed flew to his objective. Nictis smiles as his plan comes together. ~ Outside Ponyville: Fluttershy's house ~ "She is very help around the animals she doesn't become angry when Angel does something to annoy her." "Sounds great Flutters she starting to fit right in faster than I thought." George smiles while sitting with Fluttershy on a picnic. "So Misty hows life treating you." He looks at Misty which is laying on the grass looking at the clouds. "Boring how could life be so boring...I feel like stealing." She began to get up. "If you steal something your going to be locked up for a day." He looks at her smiling. Fluttershy watchs Misty leave her sight George facepalms seeing that she hard to control. He gets up. "Be right Fluttershy I need to make sure she doesn't do anything stupid." Fluttershy waves a hoof and George walks after. After a couple of minutes he finds her laying on another hill of grass. He walks up to her and sat down. "Its nice to not having a wanted sign with your face on it?" "Its so boring...I want to feel the rush." She groans "Well this is ni-*Sling* what the?" They both look at a tall spike from the ground. "Was that always there?" George asks but Misty shrugs. "Anyway-*SLING*" That one was even closer to his body. They both get up out of fright. "O-ok maybe this is not a hill." *SLING* "Oh fuck" *SLING SLING* "OH SWEET CELESTIA RUUUNNN!" *SLING SLING SLING* They both ran as fast a they could as the ground shook and even more spikes grew from the ground. As the ground slowly slipes away they both now know this is not a hill. The ground was far from them as they start to run out of room. George looks at Misty "Jump" "What?" "JUMP!" He grabs her and jumps off as the ground grew closer he uses his magic to brace his fall. They both land with a soft thud. The moster walks over them heading towards Ponyville but its first stop...was Fluttershy's house. George was not going to let it anything happen to her. "Misty we have to stop him." "You EVER stopped a monster that size?" She was looking at him crazy "No but..." He reachs for Grendal "...You wanted arush right? Wish granted." He runs for the monster. Misty follows with her staff. They both ran in front of the moster as it walks to notice it wasn't any other monster it was a dragon. Misty knew who it was though. "Vlad....Nictis called Vlad." She thought in her head. They both ran fast to Fluttershy. George sees she is not at the picnic he starts to panic. "Where Where is she? *gasp* maybe at home" He ran for her house and Misty follows once agian. They both make it to Fluttershy's house seeing her pets are all over the place. He kicks open door and yells for her. "FLUTTERSHY?" He began to search for her but she runs down the stairs George was relieved. "Fluttershy get the animals out of her we are under attack." "Changlings?" "No Dragon." "D-Dragon?" She began to tremble but they didn't have time for that. "Misty help Fluttershy I'll-I'll distract him." "WHAT?" Misty and Fluttershy yell at the same time. "No time gotta run." He ran out the door. "I gotta help him but first you." Misty states Fluttershy nods. ~ The dragon was almost to Fluttershy's house so George made sure he was a big enough distraction for the Dragon. The dragon was huge about twenty stories high and very wide and spiky. He stops to see George in his way and George turns Grendal into a katana covered in black paint. The dragon roars at the sight of his in his path. "Right then lets get this over with." George strikes a pose as Grendal speaks "This fight might be the end of you." Right before he runs he mutters "I know." THE BATTLE BEGINS! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BN0pjDIWIOs) He runs toward the beast heading for its legs. The dragon swings at him but George evades and continues for his legs. First the left one as starts to slash away at it and it takes a while to get past the thick scales it has. It jumps away shooting little small spikes at him, he block a couple but then a little one hits him on his shoulder but it not as bad as it looks and he runs at it again. This time heading for the right leg. The slash also took awhile he can't use anything slower or he will be caught by the dragon. So the sword is his best bet. The dragon swings his wing at George but he parries with a magic block stunning the beast for even more slash. He feels a large amount of pain in his arm but continues to slash at his right leg. The right leg becomes exposed and began bleeding the dragon jumps back knowing it was in trouble if he doesn't get the upper hand. ~ "Alright Fluttershy the animals are heading into the everfree you should go warn ponyville and fast." Misty grabs he staff. "W-what are you doing?" "I'm gonna slay a dragon." She smiles running out the door. ~ George was begining to become tired then starts to think back in his head with Syringe. "Your starting to become fat looks like a diet is in order...*He looks at George forth wall style angrily* see what happens when you don't think ahead." George knows he fucked up this time and the dragon starts to open it mouth. "Fire hes gonna shoot fire." George covers himself with a mage shield but the dragon opens its mouth farther than normal shooting out his teeth. The teeth flies at fast speed that seems hard to keep up with, as it hit the shield he could feel that its gonna break through. He grits his teeth knowing this could be it. The shield falls. He closes his eyes. "Oh come on you know I have you back." George opens his eyes to see Misty using her magic to cover them. "Misty? Thanks." "Don't thank me yet" A another wing flies at them. "Drop the shield." She drops it smiling know George has a plan. As the wing flies at them George block agian this time grabbing the wing and swinging the dragon around. Misty's mouth drops. He throws the beast and then jumps on the wing and slices it multiple times in mid air then jumping off with the dragon losing a wing it lands near Ponyville slaming a near by radiostation playing a rock song. Misty trots up to George then slaps his head."Ow" The place was going crazy ponies running away from the site. "What kinda throw was that....right next to Ponyville idiot." She points to the dragon getting back up. "Fuck." He runs towards the dragon again the dragon turns to see them running towards them. "It appears you protect the ponies." They both stop seeing that it talks. "AHHH so it is true Sax is working for you now reaper." He say smiling. "You know him." Misty nods "Why must you get in the way of my feast...Its only the RULES OF NATURE! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PoPaq06SBjs) The strong must feed on the weak!" The dragon grows angery as the music from the radio station increase in volume.A blue mane stripped Dj remixing the song has no idea whats going on outside with the music blasting. She head bangs at the music sounds pretty awesome anyway so he lets it slide. "You are NOT GOING TO EAT THEM DRAGON!" George hisses as he poses with his sword Misty does the same. "THEN I SHALL FEAST ON YOU!!" The heroes run towards the legs again. He jumps over them shooting more spikes. They both block and evade backwards on to a house and Misty uses her magic to grab a spike and send it back causing the dragon another wing. The dragon screams in pain and losing blood. Then as he opens his chest Misty yells out something as the song started to get even cooler with the words everthing turns slow-mo. Magic flows from their eyes blue and red flowed around their bodies. *Rules of nature* *Locked n' Loaded* "Finish that bastard off!" They both saw incoming spikes flying at them so they jump on the spikes leaping on each one towards the dragon as the buildings fell apart and the ground came up from the spikes. They jumped in front of the dragon and started slicing everywhere on his face. Then Misty landed on his head stabbing her staff on his head. Running down the back she was slicing him downwards killing him before she was finished. She lands on the ground as the dragon splits in two. George walks over to the dragon to make sure he was dead then a red light beamed from the dead body a soul. Grendal transforms back into a scyth and slices the soul consuming it then Grendal becomes longer and has a extra edge on the bladed part and Grendal says "Upgrade complete." Misty starts running away. "Misty?" "I FORGOT HIS KIND OF DRAGON EXSPLODES!" see yells running he see the Dj still looking at the music so he runs towards her as the dragon began to increase in size preparing to explode. He jumps on the Dj she yells out. "WHAT THE HAY?" The dragon explodes with thousands of spikes flying all over the place. destroying everything in it range. George places a mage shield to protect them. Darkness surrounds them. ~ "Hey...get up." a voice say kicking him "Ow..ow...st-stop." He gets up to see a destoryed landscape of ponyville well half of it. "Oh man its horrible." "Yeah Nictis sent him....bastard." she kicks a rock away. "Wheres that Dj?" "Shes fine she went to check up on he friends...speaking of which everyone in ponyville is perfectly safe thanks to Fluttershy." She sees Twilight walk up from a hill mane all messy. "Twilight what brings you?" George gets up. "Celestia sent for us...all of us get your things." She says with worry. "Something wrong?" George and Mistry looked puzzled "Yes yes there is...it seems that Rarity, Applejack, and Fluttershy was captured." George heart felt like it stopped.
