Author's Note

New armor for Prophet and Dart! Sorry this took so long, but I ran out of ideas until I watched Halo Legends. Anyway, here you go, have fun with the chapter.

Execution

I looked up when I heard a door open, hearing what I was hoping to hoof steps from a person I know. I gave a growl when I saw the strange changeling walk up to my cell.

"What the Hell do you want?" I asked, bitterness in me tone.

"I want to apologize." She said, sitting down.

"What for?" I asked, interest taking me.

"Because, if it weren't for me, you would be living peacefully." She muttered.

I gave a smile. "Don't worry about it, not many people like what they're doing." I said, looking at the shackles chaining me to the wall. "You must a Queen or somethin'."

She gave me a stare. "How'd you-"

"I'm good a deducting whatever comes my way." I said, before the door opened.

A soldier walked in, a gas mask and black armor covering his features.

"It's time." He said simply.

He and another soldier that looked like him dragged me along. I kept my head lowered in shame that I couldn't take them on.

They opened a door and threw me out. I stumbled to my feet. I looked to the left and the right too see a crowd of soldiers, dinosaurs, and ponies.

One of the soldiers hit me to the ground with his SCAR. "Hurry along."

I gave him a death glare, and stood up. I started walking slowly. I looked to see some ponies in hoods kill a few changeling guards.

I looked ahead to see a pony wearing a black costume, reminding me of how people in the middle ages got executed. I gave a snort.

"Hurry up." A soldier said, giving no emotion.

"I'm hurrying." I said, looking around.

I arrived in front of the wooden steps, when I looked to the right to see a female changeling punch me.

I stumbled to the ground, and the changeling spit on the ground next to me.

A pony in a hood pulled her away, then stood right next to me.

"We're here for you." The mare said, her voice familiar. "Just whistle when you need us."

I got back up, and nodded, before heading up the steps. My toe claws clicked against the wood, causing the crowd to fall silent. I looked to see a crowd of faces.

I felt the stallion wrap the rope against my neck, and tighten it. The stallion nodded, then a changeling opened a scroll.

"Dartagnen Drake Agundez-" The changeling started.

"It's Prophet, you dimwit. Prophet." Prophet muttered to me and himself.

"At least we die with honor." I said to myself.

"Actually, no one has been hung in over 1000 years." The stallion said, making me groan.

"Just fucking kill me already." I said, not listening to the changeling.

"We have found you guilty of these crimes. How do you plead?"

Just kill me already. "Not guilty."

"In a three hundred to one, you have been found..."

Not guilty. Not guilty. Not guilty. Not guilty.

"...guilty."

Damn.

Damn.

Suddenly, a roar was heard in the distance.

"What was that?" A soldier asked, clicking the safety off.

"Nothing. Continue." Another said, but instead of a gun, he had a sword and shield.

"Shreeeeeeeoooooooongngngngng."

"There's that noise again." I muttered. It sounded very familiar, I don't know where's it's from though.

The changeling cleared his throat. "You shall be hung, until death. May Faust have mercy on your soul." The changeling nodded, and the stallion put his hoof on the lever.

"Any last words?" The changeling asked.

I gained a thoughtful look. "I'd like to say two things." I looked at Bryce, sitting on a throne. I flipped him the bird. "Fuck. You."

Suddenly, the stallion pulled the lever, and everything went black.

"Where am I?" I looked around to see everything frozen. I looked to my left to see the stallion stopped before he could pull the lever. "Is this what dying's like?"

No answer met me.

"What's the point of living if this is literally the way you die?" I asked again, before a soft giggle met me.

I looked up, to see a person with a hood. It had a scythe in one hand, and waved it's other hand.

"Dartagnen Drake Agundez! I have come for you."

"Lady Death, nice to you again." I said, making her sigh.

"Why in the bloody Hell can everyone tell I'm a girl?" She asked, taking her hood down to show a cute face with black hair. She had dark green eyes. If you asked someone, she kind of looked like the girl version of me.

"Well, for one, we've met many times before. Two, you need a bigger cloak, cuz I can see your breasts, and three, we may or may've not met in the past life."

She shook her head, then smiled. "It's good to see you again. I must say, you're brought quite a few hundreds of things up here. Animals, humans, dinosaurs, changelings-you name it." She said, shaking my hand. "Because you have brought so many things up here, I've gotten quite a pay check because of you, and God has granted me to let you have one chance to go back."

I smiled, giving her a fanged smile. "Well, I'm grateful, but, I have to ask, why are you doing this for me?"

Suddenly, hoof steps sounded behind me, and I looked to see Celestia and Luna, both smiling at me.

"You guys are dead? Shit!" I asked, kicking at the frozen ground, making the pebble stop when it hit the air.

"No, we're not dead. We're just Gods." Celestia giggled, making me sigh.

"Well, this crap gets more complicated, doesn't it?" I asked, making Death and Luna giggle.

"Well, not exactly." Luna said, before a map opened. And not just any ordinary map-a map of the milky way. My galaxy.

Then, it showed another galaxy, slightly changed, but, it was the same galaxy. Suddenly, stars lights went off, making them disappear. And then, a small super nova showed, taking out some stars.

"What's this?" I asked, inspecting the two maps. I drew my finger through the hologram, until I spotted a familiar planet; Earth. The map zoomed in, both maps showing the same planet, except, the second map made me shake.

The second map showed Earth, half of the planet was destroyed, it's surface was covers in molten rock, lava, and bedrock. Bits of the planet started floating, showing that something powerful had happened.

"What happened?" I asked under a shaking breath.

"Bryce happened." Death said, frowning at the two pictures. "If he completes the project for the anomalies, he will destroy the both of our galaxies." Death sighed, as it showed the surface of the two planets. It showed a bustling city in one, and ruins, crumbling rocks and dust from a age that had past many years ago.

A beautiful forest showed, only to show a field of dead bodies, human, animal, anything, and lava pools collecting at a 'lake'. Burnt trees were uprooted, long since dead. And where beautiful meadows showed, a large desert showed, lava pools dotting the landscape, and large rocks that used to be towns were showing. It then showed a town, a oasis in California.

"Home." I breathed, seeing people running to and fro, little children playing and running through me, as if I were a ghost. Suddenly, the images changed to show half decayed bodies lying on the floor, rocks and destroyed buildings were what was left of the beautiful city.

I then was brought to my knees, to see a doll. It looked so real, but, I picked up the holographic image, almost as if I could feel the burnt plastic of the toy, the rough and burnt clothe of it. My vision turned bleary, tears falling from my cheeks, seeing a young girls body lying there, broken, but alive.

Her left arm was gone, only a bloody stump was there. A large creature then moved, walking through me. It had a armored suit, picking up the girl. Suddenly, it rubbed it's face, before letting loose a metallic cry.

More creatures walked towards it, inspecting the girl.

I gave Death, Celestia, and Luna a confused look. I then turned to see the creatures move into a metal base like structure, taking the girl there.

Suddenly, I looked at Death, wiping away the tears that stung my eyes. "I'm going to fucking kill that bastard!" I yelled, punching into the ground, making the maps and holograms disappear. "Take me back."

Death nodded, then waved her hand. "Until we meet again, Dart."

Suddenly, the world began to move, and I felt the rope tighten around my neck. I loooked back to see the pony getting it on.

"Help!" A cry said, and I looked to see AppleBloom running away from some guards.

Suddenly, the guard caught her, and took out his sword. "You'll be executed, right here, right now." The changeling said, raising his sword.

Suddenly, the pony grabbed the handle.

"NO!"

Suddenly, I felt my bones began to revert to human, intense pain setting in. The crowd watched in awe as I felt myself turn into my 6 foot self.

Armor suddenly covered me, a HUD and VISOR showing, highlighting multiple enemies throughout the crowd. I felt as strength pumped into my veins, causing my muscles to expand a little. My canine teeth became more sharp, and my body felt like it was crushed, then reshaped.

I growled, my voice coming out, metallic. Suddenly, my HUD flashed red, and my hand moved, blocking an Axe from the executioner pony. My helmet turned to him, and I realized how small he was. Did I get taller?

I then lifted my right arm, only to see a chaingun on it. I slightly panicked, making it rev up, and started firing, killing few changeling and human soldiers.

Bryce stared at my, wide eyed.

"You dun fucked up." I looked to the left, seeing a window give a reflection of myself.

Hmm...Not bad. Like the Prototype armor from Halo Legends.

Suddenly, I looked to see Bryce walk into the door way, civvies panicking left and right, screaming. I then started walking, and saw all the ponies, humans, and dinosaurs make a path. Left and right, ponies in white hoods were fighting changelings and humans.

I kept walking, my black armor shining. I then stopped in front of the changeling that raised his sword, ready to kill AB. Suddenly, I grabbed his sword, stopping him, and lifted him up. I then put my chaingun to his stomach, and fired round after round, killing him and tearing his lower body off. I kept firing, and threw him to the ground, away from AB. I then cracked my neck, and smiled, before raising my chaingun and firing, tearing a changeling apart when it charged towards me. It gave a dying screech, falling to the ground, motionless.

Suddenly, I turned, firing my rocket as a group of human soldiers. They exploded into red mist, limbs and organs falling to the ground.

"Apple Bloom. Go, now!" I yelled, my voice metallic.

"But, Dart! Ya'll need help! Ah can-!" I suddenly whistled, a pony flying next to me.

"Take this filly away, and round up the civvies, we don't want any more casualties." The Pegasus mare nodded, and grabbed AB, before taking off again.

"Sir! We're outnumbered and outgunned. These ponies came out of nowhere, they just-AUGH!" I heard a voice say on the radio, before static drowned it out.

"Sir, where are you going?" A human soldier asked, firing at changelings.

"I have some problems to take care of. Make sure the changelings and soldiers don't follow me." I ordered, making the soldier nod and run off.

I then walked through the doors Bryce went through, only to find a platoon of enemies rounding the corner. My chaingun revved up.

"I'm here to kick ass and chew bubblegum..." I said, seeing the soldiers raise their weapons. "Problem is...I'm all out of bubblegum."

"Sir, the rebels have entered the base. We're surrounded, and the Celestial guards have arrived from the Crystal Empire!" A soldier said, in front of Bryce. they were in a underground hanger, branching underneath the cliff where the battle had begun.

Bryce growled, seeing one ship in the hanger. "Then take care of the problem."

"-We repeat! The subject known as Dart is coming towards the Hanger, I repeat-AGHHHHHHH!"

Bryce cursed under his breath. Suddenly, the hanger metal doors banged. A dent in the shape of a person showed, a scream muffled through the thick doors. All the soldiers brought their guns out. A platoon of soldiers started to surround the doors, the rest on the rails and walkways.

Another dent showed, and another, and another. Suddenly, a helmet went through the door, and a strange metal cylinder was put through. It started beeping, and then more metal cylinders were put through the doors, and all the beeps made the soldiers uneasy. A soldier went up, and poked it, seeing it did nothing.

"It's alright, they're harmless, nothing to worry about." The soldier said, making the others put their weapons down.

Suddenly, the doors blew open, squashing and crushing the soldiers. The soldier in front of the door somehow survived. But then, a hand came out of the smoke, and grabbed the soldier's head, crushing his head between it's armored fingers. Brains and blood gushed through it's armored gloves.

Suddenly, the body was thrown to the side, and a armored person came through the flames and scorched dirt and metal. Flames licked and danced around him, making a soft oranges glow, giving the creature a unholy appearance.

"Bryce! I'm coming for your ass!" The metallic voice yelled through the suit.

"Dart, how nice of you to join the party." Bryce said, making the large metal creature look at him. "But, I've gotta run, have fun with the party."

Guns fired, and rockets launched, hitting the metallic creature dead on. A large cloud of smoke a dust covered most of the hanger. Soldiers kept firing, until the dust settled onto them, and the men stopped firing.

"You think he's dead?" A soldier asked, before he tripped, and was pulled into the darkness, silently.

"Probably is. C'mon Johnny, we have to...Johnny? Johnny, stop fucking around." Suddenly, a hand came forward and grabbed the mans helmet, and crushed it, pulling him into the darkness.

"Red team, sound off!" A commanding voice barked, before getting a kick to the shin, breaking his leg off, and pulled into the darkness.

"Farell is here."

"Fuck me...Jason is here."

"Baxter here...Johnny, sound off. Loide? Sarge?"

Suddenly, a scream for help sounded, making the soldier turn, only to receive a punch to the side of his head, killing him instantly. The other two looked around, firing randomly. Suddenly, some of the gunshots stopped firing, causing Bryce to look at the dust, inspecting it.

Suddenly, a helmet was tossed out, empty, and had red stains on an in it, suggesting that blood was in the helmet. Suddenly, a soldier's body landed next to Bryce, causing the man to flinch, only to realize in horror that the soldier was dead. Suddenly, a gun clattered to the ground, and a large figure walked towards Bryce, the dust slowly clearing to show Dart there.

A soldier's face was in the palm of his hand, making the soldier's muffled screams becoming more frantic. Suddenly, Dart lifted the man, lifting his knee, and thrusting as hard as he would, cutting through the man's spine and organs, crushing him in half. The cries stopped instantly, making the room go into a uneasy silence.

"So, here we are. Enemies at last. Wonder when this would happen." Bryce said, making Dart shift, his large armor clanking a little. Suddenly, Bryce pulled out a pistol, his ship's engines starting.

"Bryce, stop this! We were brothers, remember? We fought together, for the Lost Ones, remember?" Dart said, holding out his armored hand. "Bryce come home...Please."

Bryce lowered his head, his vision becoming blurry, before her fired a shot at Dart, his bullet bounced off of a invisible shield. It flickered, like a dome, of Dart's body. He kept firing, picking up the soldier's machine gun and firing with both guns.

Dart stepped back, his shields overloading slightly. Suddenly, his shields broke, and Bryce fired a shot with his pistol, and it hit Dart's helmet.

Suddenly, the helmet was tossed off, to show Dart, half of his face covered in blood. A large cut from his eyebrow went to his cheek, bleeding slightly.

Bryce tried to fire again, only to realize that he ran out of ammo. His vision blurred more, and he walked into the ramp, but looked back.

"Dart, I'm sorry...I truly am..." Bryce said, before the cavern shook, and spikes eexploded from the ground between them, and a roar sounded.

The green spikes then went back down, and disappeared. Bryce then ran into the ship, the ramp closing. Dart then started to fire his rocket launcher t th ship, missing. Suddenly, a little patch hit the ship, and started to blip, before it went out of the hanger and flew away. Dart muttered a few curses, before putting on his helmet.

"You're not getting away this time, you bastard...Not again." Dart said, walking away, his armor made clicking sounds as he walked through the bodies and dust, heading back to the battle.
