Accidental MeetingsView OnlineDimensional TouristAccidental MeetingsDark alley ways. The worst invention ever, nothing good ever comes out of dark alleyways. Especially ones of Las Vagas, home to the criminal capital of America. Why the sanctuary wanted to start cleaning house is beyond my understanding, but after whats been happening in Ireland i guess they want to look good in the eyes of the other sanctuaries around the world. I glance around at my surroundings, holding my hand up to feel for any vibrations or disturbances. "Of cause I would get some of the worse criminals to hunt down," I think to my self " They just hope one of them would get lucky and kill me already... well not everyone. At least the Grand Mage and i get along, and other people in the sanctuary seem to not care what i am able to do, but oh well. Stereotypes don't disappear in a nigh." my train of thought was interrupted by a slight disturbance from behind. I turn around to see a huge man behind me. My targets name is Derek Slayer (real original on the slayer part) and he is a Dimensional Shuntter. He is roughly 6" 3' and is said to be the same size as a boulder. He popped up a few years back when one of his targets leg was left behind and he got sloppy and left a security camera still operational. Since then ive been tracking him down until I ended up in this Las Vagas alley way with him facing me. "Silly Detective! Dont you know who i am?" He says very dramatically " I AM THE GREATEST MURDER OF ALL!" "*sigh* yes yes good to meet you Derek, you are under arrest for the murders of Nancy Hailfeather, Pete Goldeye, Riley Markenson and many others. How do you plea?" I ask nonchalantly. "hahahahhaha i plead guilty to them all and more" he says, still acting like stage performer " You can add yourself to list as well." To this he leaps at me trying to grab me. I jump out of the way bringing out my revolver and hitting him with the butt. Only to have him absorb it in his fat. He turns around and has a swing at my face, I jump away from the attack getting some space between us, I fire four rounds into his gut. Immediately causing to fall to the ground and hit is head against the curb knocking him out. I grab the shackles from my pocket and bend over to lock his hands up. Only too late do i realize my mistake as he grabs my ankle with the un-cuffed hand. At the touch i feel my self slowly falling apart as i race through dimensions at an unknown speed. Using all my focus trying to keep my self from ripping apart I use my power to concentrate on magnetizing my self to a high magical source. --------------- Perspective: Celestia ---------------- I wake up and roll over to check the time " *groan* time to raise the sun" I mutter, I swear the nights are getting shorter and shorter. I walk over to my balcony and look to my left, seeing the blank balcony " I miss you so much Luna." I say as i look up to the moon and her prison "*sigh* i wish it didnt have to be like this, why did you have to change to night mare moon?" Not expecting an answer and not getting one i focus my horn to bring it to its decent. Once that was done I turned towards where the sun will rise and started setting it on its cause. When that was done I started heading inside when i heard the sound of screaming. Looking around to try and find the source of the noise I hear " LOOK OUT BELOW!" looking up i see this creature fall right towards me, charging my horn i start to slow its decent, but not quick enough as it collides with me, knocking me out. I awoke inside the medical bay of the castle with multiple doctors and nurses surrounding me with worried looks in their eyes, "What? im fine" I say getting up, immediately feeling a wave of dizziness wash over me "Sit down Princess, you have a slight concussion and a sprained wing" says a doctor as he rushes to steady me. " Im fine." I reassure him, " where is that creature that crashed landed?" I ask. "Uhhhh." the doctor says nervously, looking around at his associates for support. "What is it?" I ask. " Wellll, the creature is unlike anything we have seen, it is covered in this strange clothing and he was armed" the doctor said, " and uhhh, we have kept it unconscious and have guards covering his door." "Take me to this creature and wake it up, I wish to speak to it" I say. "Right away your Majesty" He said with a bow "The creature is this way." ------------ Perspective: Detective Nephilim ------------- The last thing I remember is falling to the ground heading to this bright white horse with a torch on its head. I slowly wake to feel my self on a comfortable bed, slowly opening my eyes to see that i am in a bright white room, looking around i see these small horses dressed up in golden armor and hold spears standing at the door. I try to move my hands only to meet resistance, looking up i find my hands and feet tied to the bed. Great. I continue looking around the room and find a horse bigger then the guards at the door. "Princess the creature is awake." says one of the guards. Wait a minute, the little horse/pony thing talked? Okkayyy then. The big white one turned from the window and approached me. Inspected it i noticed that the torch i noticed before is actually a horn and the horse also has wings, strange indeed. "Do you understand me?" says the big white unipegasus. I just stare at the way the mouth moved. What i could tell it speaks like humans do. "My name is Princess Celestia, who are you?" She says slowly. Realizing how rude it is of me to be starring I reply " Greetings Princess Celestia, I am Detective Nephilim Serendipitous." I say in my most official voice i can pull. Moving to shake her hand/hooves I realize I am still tied up. The horse named Celestia give a look of shock when i talked. " What are you? " she asks. To which I just look up at my bound hands and feet. Getting her to look up at them suspiciously before getting a decision. "Guard, untie him please" she tells one of the guard, who just looks stunned. "but Princess, what if he... you knows trys to" he stops, dragging his hoof across his neck. "I think he doesn't mean us harm" she says, looking at me. Seriously, I'm right here. The guard approaches me cautiously and goes to untie my hands. Once he is done I sit up slowly and untie my legs. Getting the occupants in the room to stare at me and my majestic disposable thumbs. I chuckle slightly as i finish untieing my self and sit on the edge of the bed. Well time to break the tension. " My species is called Homo sapiens or Humans for short and I come in peace." I say, almost ruining the mood by laughing at the clicheness of what I said. I extend my hand. To which the Princess takes it and shakes it. "Well good to meet you." She says while shaking. Well i guess it is as good as time as any to ask, " Why are you a unipegasus horse thingy?" I ask, which gets a snicker from one of the guards. "I am actually called an Alicorn. Do you have Unicorns and Pegasuses from where you are from?" She asks. " Well, they are a myth but for what i am i tend to be open minded as to what i usually think is a myth or just a cover up" I reply. This seems to put the Princess into deep thought. "You said you are a human right?" She asks, still thinking. "yes" i reply, The princess seemingly troubled. " I need to be going, i need to reaserch something, until i come back is it alright if you stay here?" she asks me a bit demanding, well she is a princess. "Sure, ill stay."
Accidental Meetings part 2View OnlineDimensional TouristAccidental Meetings part 2------------- Perspective: Celestia -------------- 15 minutes ago I made my way to the creatures room as the doctor rushed ahead to start waking it up. I am nervous to say the least, what if it doesn't speak our language? wait, didn't it tell me to look out? what if it is violent or if it just a scout for an invading army? I start panicking a little only to be stop by the doctor open the door again. "Princess there is something you should know before you enter." He said "What is it?" I ask. "Well when we found him it had a this strange cylinder thing on its side and a cauterized hand attached to its leg, we think it may be a cultural thing to have a fallen foes hand attached to their legs." The doctor says nervously. Getting the guards at the door to look at each other and tighten their grip on their weapons. "Secure his hands and legs then, how long until it is awake?" I ask the doctor. "In a few minutes. If it is alright with you princess i don't want to be around when it wakes up" The doctor said, looking very scared but trying to hide it. "Alright you can go, guards come in with me, I'm going to have a look at this creature while it is unconscious." I walk into the room and found the creature, it is covered in black and grey clothing with what seems to be a cloak of some sorts that ends its knees. Under the coat the design of the clothes make it look like he is wearing a tuxedo that is slightly grey with blue and green intermixed in slight lines. Its face makes it looks abit pear shaped with a mane on the top of dark brown. Its hands are covered in a different material then his whats is covering it, it seems to have five things coming out of a its arm that are slightly bent and have different lengths. I look at the window and try to think of what this creature could be, it looks like nothing I've seen before and it somehow flies. My thought process was interupted by one of the guards "Princess the creature is awake." I look over at the creature to see that it's eyes are blue and have a hint of intelligence in it. " Do you understand me?" I ask, getting the creature to stare at my mouth. "My name is Princess Celestia, who are you?" I ask slowly, hoping that it understands me a little. The creature seems to snap out of its daze and stops looking at my mouth, why is it so interested in that? I was about to say something else when the creatures mouth opens. "Greetings Princess Celestia, I am Detective Nephilim Serendipitous." I decide that it is a male. I take note at his strange name, why would someone be called son of gods and happy coincidences? I realize that i still look a bit shocked so i go back to my diplomatic face, hoping he didn't notice. He tugs at the ropes for some reason, i look up at them and decide to ask the question that has been bugging me since i saw him. "What are you?" I ask. He doesnt reply and just looks up at his tied hands, so he is smart, he is obviously not going to answer anymore of my questions until he is untied. Thinking for a second I decide to get one of the guards to untie him. Seeing as he hasnt done anything violent since he woke. "Guard, untie him please" i ask one of the guards at the door. "But Princess, what if he... you knows trys to" he stops, dragging his hoof across his neck. Shaking my head a little I respond "I think he doesn't mean us harm" I say, taking a look at him and hope he didn't get offended by that gesture. The guard approaches him slowly and unties his hands, To which he just sits up and uses those pointy things to untie his legs, "that is truely amazing" I think to myself, noticing how efficient the small fat one is. He then moves his legs so they are hanging over the edge of the bed. "My species is called Homo sapiens or Humans for short and I come in peace." He says, with a glint of humour taking up his eyes. What is so funny? He extends his arms and opens his palm, i take it and am a abit shocked to find it warm and squishy with a bit of firmness to it. "Well good to meet you." I say, still abit shocked at his hooves. He seems to hesitate abit before asking " Why are you a unipegasus horse thingy?" He says, getting a snicker from one of the guards, i glance over to see which one but he stops immediately. "I am actually called an Alicorn. Do you have Unicorns and Pegasuses from where you are from?" I ask, it seems that he is familiar with them which is good, I think. " Well, they are a myth but for what I am I tend to be open minded as to what i usually think is a myth or just a cover up" He says, like this isn't the first time saying it. A stray thought hits me when he says that we are just myths. What if to us he is a myth that I've forgotten, if so wouldn't it be in one of the mythology books in the library. Maybe I have seen... What was his species again? "You said you are a human right?" I ask, still trying to recall where that name could be from. "Yes" He replies simply. With that in mind I decide that I better see if there is any reference in the library to his species before i continue this talk. Just to make sure he isnt harmful. " I need to be going, i need to research something, until i come back is it alright if you stay here?" I ask. Please say yes. "Sure, ill stay." He says, I let out a sigh of relief and make my way towards the library. --------------- Perspective: Detective Nephilim ------------------- After what seems like hours in the room, i start to get really bored. What if the Princess is going to execute me? or send me to a lab of some sorts? or what if more logically she forgot that i was still here, getting really hungry and needing to go toilet. After some walking around trying to hold it in I decide it better to see if there is a toilet nearby " Hey," i say, getting the attention of the guards " where is the nearest toilet?" They look at each other, having some sort of silent conversation. " If you feel better you can always tie my hands together, i just really need to go" i say, hoping they don't realize that they aren't very good rope tiers. They look at each other some more before making a decision " OK, put your... err hands behind you so we can tie them up." Says the same guard who untied me, excellent. I do as he says has he ties my hands behind me in a very basic knot and then tells me to follow the other guard. The toilet turns to be slightly down the hall. After going I look around while quickly untie myself. The bathroom has a toilet, sink and a window. I make my way towards the window and have a look outside. It turns out i am inside a castle with high walls and guards walking around the edge. I look down and see that i am only two stories up, the story below me has a window, perfect. A knock comes from the door as one of the guards walks in. I turn arounds and shout " RAGLEDE FRAZZLE FOR SAZZLY DO WOP" before jumping out the window. I fall for a second before pushing the air, propelling me through the other window, which was luckily open. Landing I turn around and yell " OH GOD WHAT IS THAT THING! IT IS GOING OVER THE WALL" I turn around and find myself in a similar room to the one i woke up in. Opening to door slightly I stick my hand out and read the air for any one moving, once it clear I move out with my hand still open and continue walking around. Going through hallways that are empty and avoiding ones that are full I end up in a dead end with a door that has a picture of a book on it.
Accidental meetings part 3View OnlineDimensional TouristAccidental meetings part 3--------Perspective: Celestia ------------ A few hours before I walked through the corridors and arrived at the library. Heading straight for the mythology section i opened the first book "ancient beings and unexplained occurrences in alphabetical order". Flicking through to "H" she found a entry called "humanoid" that was roughly 4 pages long and got to reading. " Humanoids are a bipedal creature with low intelligence. This creatures walk with a stoop so their hooves, or hands as they are more scientifically called, drag along the ground. These creatures are omnivorous and is said to of went extinct around 1250 years BCR." The next few pages on it were descriptions and when they were discovered and by who. Sighing i put the the book back and grabbed another one. After an unknown amount of time I look up to the sound of one of the guards entering looking shamed " Your Majesty, I'm sorry to inform you but the creature has escaped and fled over the castles walls." Damn it, i think to myself, I knew I shouldn't of trusted a strange creature. A stray thought hit me " Did any of your guards see him go over the wall?" I asked, remembering back to my filly days when i used to trick my little sister's hide and seek group by yelling out where i wasn't. " Uhhhhh no Princess, but one of the guards said he heard somepony call out saying he was going over the wall." i knew it. " Captain, did you think that maybe it was him who called out that warning?" he shook his head " Well then he is most likely still in the castle" The captain had the look of somepony who had suddenly realized he was tricked "Of cause Your Majesty, i will get my guards to search the perimeter right away. Also you are 5 minutes late for setting the sun" The guard then saluted and left to go search the grounds. I looked up and realized that I've been here for at least 5 hours, no wonder why the human escaped. He probably thought she forgot about him. Teleporting to her raising tower she quickly set the sun and raised the moon before heading off to join the search. -------- Perspective: Nephilim -------- I open the door to find myself in a library. Excellent, this should help me find out where I am, I think to myself as a start wondering around. The first thing I notice is that i have no clue how to read their language. The second thing i noticed is light clopping following me. I spin around quickly to catch them off guard only to see a purple blur. I walk slowly occasionally spinning around to try and find the stalker. After about 5 minutes of trying I decide to try a different approach, so I pick up the nearest book and start flicking through the pages, all the while looking around without moving my head. A few seconds later I notice this small purple filly poking her head around the corner of the shelf I'm standing at, she notices that I'm "reading" and proceeds to squat down with face close to the ground and her back arched up. She then looks at me funnily and starts crawling really slowly while staring at me intently. The filly is about knee high with a small horn on her head, her mane has a lighter shade of purple in it and her eyes where wide and with a purple iris. I turn the page of the book and she darts under the book shelf with practiced ease. Deciding it is high time i confront my stalker i walk slowly towards where she was hiding. Once i'm there i here her take a sharp breath inwards and i bend down onto my hands and knees looking underneath the book shelf. When my eyes made contact with hers she let out a growl similar to a kittens and leaped at me. I crawled back and let out a growl of my own. She growls back and gives me what is probably her scary face, which just looked like she smelt something bad. Finding it all too adorable for me I sit up and put my hands behind my head " I surrender, please don't hurt me" I say, putting on a scared face. She seems confused for a second then decided that she scared me into submission she says in a commanding voice " good, what did you do to the princess, mister?" She begins pacing in front of me. I decide to play along to her questioning. " I don't know miss, I came in here to find out more about where i am" She turned to me and proceeded to stare into my eyes, holding back the rising laughter. After awhile she stepped back seemingly happy with my answer. She took a deep breath in and nothing could of prepared me for what happened next. "WHATAREYOU? WHATSYOURNAME? DOYOUHAVEACUTIEMARKYETIFSOWHATISIT? WHEREAREYOUFROM? doyoulikebooks? canyouread? haveyoumetprincessceletiayet?" she then took another breath and before she could bombard me with anymore questions I put my finger up for silence and she stares at me with intelligent eyes. " I am a human, my name is Nephilim Serendipitous, what is a cutie mark? and i am from Earth. I like books but i cant read your language and yes, I have met Princess Celestia." I say, answering all of her questions " now, what is your name?" i ask politely. She just looks at me stunned and says "What do you mean you like books but cant read? *GASP* maybe I can teach you? can I can I can I can I can I? please please pleeeeaaassseeeee?" She then proceeds to give me to biggest puppy eyes I've ever seen. "Hmmmmm alright, one condition though, you tell about this planets history." I say, knowing that this little pony would be a wealth of knowledge. Her mouth tightened then she nodded her head " Alright, my name is Twilight Sparkle but you can call me Miss Sparkle. Today I will teach you the ponyphabet." ------------ Perspective: Celestia --------------- After an hour of searching and no sign of the human I decide to go back the library to check up on Twilight. Once I arrive at the door I hear talking inside the library, one of the voices belonging to her prized student and another one that sounds somewhat familiar yet foreign to her. Opening the door slowly and quietly poking her head through the gap she saw Twilight pacing in front of a very bemused human. Curious to see what they are up to I teleport myself behind the nearest bookshelf and start eavesdropping in their conversation. "So this is the letter Y you draw it like so" I hear Twilight saying "Now don't be sad if you cant get draw it straight away, it took me ages to do...." Twilight suddenly stopped talking and just as i was about to jump out I hear the human say " Like so?" and Twilight growling. "How did you learn it so quickly? that is so unfair. Are you cheating mister?" She says "No, not at all. I've just had lots of experience learning new languages" the human replies "How old are you anyway?" Twilight asks "Well im about 143 years old, Im still young compared to my peers" "woah, so your like Princess Celestia?" Twilight says "Ummm i not sure, what do you mean by that?" "Well Princess Celestia is over one thousand years old" Twilight says in a bragging voice. "Wow that is old. Hey you wouldn't happen to know where the Princess would keep unique items would you?" "Of cause I do, she keeps them." That is when I decided to interrupt. I step around the corner and do a little cough. Twilight spins around and gaps, before bowing. "Princess Celestia." " Hello Twilight it is good to see you helping our guest." I say, looking over at the detective. Who in response looks over at me like he is trying to decide what I will do to him. "Hello Princess, so good to see you again. Hopefully you didn't mind me looking around the castle for abit, I was curious to know more about your society and this lovely little pony offered to help and after all, you did say I am a guest?" He asks with a smile. Oh he is good with words, I think to myself. "Of cause you are a guest, although I don't think you are being all that honest with me, I've been through all the books and not once is humans mentioned, what exactly are you?" i ask, hoping i am right in my assumption that he lied about what he is. "You are somewhat right, I am not exactly a human but a sorcerer or mage. But there is such things as humans." Nephilim says. "So you can do magic? where is your horn?" Twilight pipes in. "Yes I can do magic although I don't need a horn." He replies "What type of magic?" I ask, causing him to hesitate for a second. "Elemental magic, as in wind, fire, water and ground. Although we try not to use earth due to it's unpredictable results." He replies, sounding like he rehearsed this many times to a mirror. Decided it would be better to ask why he hesitated later I ask him another question. "Can you show us?" "Sure." He then clicked his fingers and set his hand on fire, causing Twilight to gasp. " THAT IS SO COOL!" She exclaims, staring at his hand, which is now clear of flame, looking for any burn marks. "How do you do that? Can you teach me?" Twilight says, giving him the puppy eyes she has used on me countless times, knowing how hard it is to resist, I decide to send Twilight away so I could talk to him in private. "Twilight It is getting late, why don't you head home?" I say, getting her to pout a bit. "Yes Princess" she says, heading out the door. When the door closed I heard the most dreadful sound. The sound of Twilight screaming in terror "TWILIGHT!" I yell, running to the door. Author's Note BCR= before celestia's rule
The return of DiscordView OnlineDimensional TouristThe return of Discord--------- Perspective: Nephilim-------------- "TWILIGHT" Celestia yells, running to the door. I follow closely, clicking both my fingers and creating a flame in both hands, Celestia kicks the door open just in time to see an unconsious twilight about to be picked up by a strange being. The creature looked like someone put a bunch of mythical creatures into a blender and turned it on, getting the result of a chimera of sorts. By the look of pure hatred from Celestia this creature must be something bad, so I threw both of the fireballs at the creature and then launched myself across the room. The creature clicked its fingers and turned the fireballs into two headed birds. I go to kick him only to have him click its fingers again and vanish. I then turn around to make sure it didnt teleport behind me, seeing that the coast is clear I walk up to Celestia nuzzling Twilight trying to wake her up. Walking up to them both I kneel down and push Celestia's snout out of the way. "NO!" Celestia yells, tears flowing down her eyes. "Shhh it's ok, let me check to see if she is hurt." I say, soothing the Princess. After some more coaxing I manage to get Celestia away from Twilight. I feel around her head, searching for any bumps or cracks. Finding neither I then begin to feel around her ribs and legs, finding none of them broken I check eyes and breathing. "She just fainted, probably got scared out of her wits. Poor thing." I say. "Oh this is all my fault," Celestia says. I look up at her, shock written all over my face. " How is this your fault?" I exclaim. " I shouldn't of let twilight walk out here alone," " So, you should of followed Twilight through a castle full of guards, surrounded by walls. To a place she has walk to many times?" " YES!" She yells, the facing her face towards the floor "well when you put it like that it seems silly but." "No buts, this isn't your fault. It is that chaos creature's fault. In no way is any of this your fault." I say. "You're right, you are good at this comforting thing." she says "Well in my line of work I've seen all sorts of people trying to blame themselves for an event they had no part of. What was that creature anyway?" I ask " That was Discord, the god of chaos and all things unpleasant. But I don't know how he escaped his stone prison me and my sister put him in centuries ago. So what exactly does a detective do from where your from?" " We detect things" I say, laughing to myself. In response Celestia glares at me slightly. " Nah I hunt down dangerous magical criminals and arrest them, When I can." I say "what do you mean "when you can"?" she asks, slightly wide eyed "Well I always get the most dangerous and delusional criminals and sometimes they fight me to their last breath." Celestia gasps and steps away from me "You kill people?" She says quietly. "Yeah, but they are bad people who have usually killed many innocent people." I respond, slightly confused to the way she was responding. " Do you keep your victims hands attached to your leg as a reward?" she asks as she steps away from me even more. " What? no, why would you ask that?" I say, highly confused now. " When the doctors found you, you had a hand attached to your leg that looked like it was ripped off." My eyes widened, a smile spreads it's way across my mouth. I have a way to go back, I think to myself, I am not stuck here, I can go home. "Why are you smiling?" Celestia asks, realizing that I'm still kneeling over Twilight I get up and move away. " Isthmus Anchor." I say excitedly, getting a puzzled look from Celestia. "What is was that?" "An Isthmus Anchor, It is an object belonging to one reality, residing in another. That hand is my ticket home, the body it was connected to was probably found by my partner and sent to the hospital where he would've been fixed up. The hand would still be connected to him and I can use it to go home" I explain, smiling in full now. Author's Note hey, sorry for the small chapter and possible (though likely) grammar and spelling errors. I've had a massive revaluation of where this story is going and i have decided to add a star wars story i was writing and have had little to no free time to write.
