A "Happy" War to Wage

"That....was....close" I said in between breaths. I sprinted out of that forest before the Princess caught sight of me. I had to warn the others about what the ponies were up to. I also had to explain why I had a snapped staff in my hands. I had tripped on an exposed root while I was running, when it broke, a weird jolt of electricity when through my body. I had been getting weird feelings ever since it happened, I just hoped Jinx would snap my neck. I walked back to the town, it was maybe about one o'clock. There was a clock tower, but I didn't look, because it was burned down when we used lightning arrows. I walked straight to Jinx's home and knocked on her door.
"Oh hey Wyatt! Whats up?" Jinx said in a happy tone.
"Oh uh hey, I just have to tell you something" I said.
"What is it? You alright?" She leaned in a little.
"I broke your staff, sorry" I revealed the snapped staff to her, she gasped and took it out of my hands.
"Are you alright!?"
"What? Why are you asking me that?"
"Well, there's no way you could've broken this without getting into some sort of fight or something"
"Well, I saw some ponies and I had to run away in time before they saw me, oh and by the way , they are planning something about poisoning us."
"Really?!" Klum said, he overheard what I had said and walked over to me.
"Yeah, something about poisonous weaponry and stuff, and it will work, I had blurred eyes and a stuffy nose just by smelling it!"
"That's gonna be a problem, well, I suppose I could forgive you for breaking this, as long as you pay me back!" Jinx gave me a playful punch in the shoulder and shut her door.
"Well, anyways, we need to completely cover up this city, if that poison is that strong, we need protection."
"Your right, i'll tell the others!" I said, running from home to home, alerting everyone of this. We had gotten everyone to meet at town hall, Klum explained what we needed to do. Many people set off to a different part of the city, each group of people had an engineer. Scooter and the rest of the engineers would build something called a 'Gatling Gun' and a "Rocket Volley System'. I didn't know what the hell those were, but they sounded awesome. I helped secure the main gate with all sorts of metals and wood. Clerics and mages were slowly building up the wall to make a glass dome, it would be enchanted to be more durable. In the making of the GG's and the RVS's, I watched in awe as I saw them being made. It was like every mans dream, I regretted not being able to blast these things at people back at home, but it would be much better blasting at ponies. The GG shot like, a million times faster than the regular ballista, and the RVS was just too explosive to be turned down. It was amazing at what the engineers could do, they could summon robots, build faster than the speed of light, upgrade fortifications, be awesome, and they had some badass goggles. It didn't look like a completely easy job though, most of them were sweaty, greasy, and scratched up, but they just shook it off like it was nothing.
I was building something myself, in fact I was the only one doing it mainly because I was told to. I was making a new alarm system that was more efficient in detecting movement outside of the town walls. I was fixing the rigging inside and I reached for a wrench, it was in my hand before I grabbed it. I stared at the the table, then my hand, then the table again.
"What the hell, I didn't even grab it...." I shook it off as the heat was just getting to me. The alarm system was relying on the one machine that I was editing, Scooter had given me some easy tips to doing stuff like this. I could fit my whole body in there, but my wings weren't helping the fact that it was pretty tight in there. They were trying to extend out to full length, but the inner walls of the system was stopping them, it just made my job harder. It took a while to finish the damn thing, but I was proud of myself. I looked up to see a large dome around the town, it had a bee hive like texture to it that added to its coolness. I saw everyone eating lunch down by the city hall, I decided to drop by. I flapped my wings a few times, preparing for my first flight session. The wings had definitely grown, the wing span was as wide as the princess' wings. I took a deep breath.
"Here goes nothing!" I then jumped off of the wall and began to flap my wings. I was not getting that much height, so I decided to just glide across the ground. I was going fast, if I were to hit the ground, I would suffer a few scraps and my robe would be ruined. I lowered my hands to try and break the on coming fall, I heard a loud woosh noise, as if someone had shot a super wind blast. I was in the air, except even higher than before.
"Did I do that?! Holy shit, the hell?!" I had a smile across my face, what just happened was pure awesomeness. I had to come down though, my stomach was angry. I looked down at the ground, there were people all around watching me fly. I landed nearby and regained my composure.
"Dude! Did you see what you just did?" Klum said, shaking me.
"Umm, I flew?" I said, taking his hands off of my shoulders.
"No, you shot a wind blast, out of your hands!!!! It was awesome!" Scooter pitched in.
"How did you do that? Did you study that or something?" Jinx asked, probably wondering so she could do it.
"I don't know how it happened, it just happened." I was confused. First the wrench thing, and now this? Something was definitely going on, the wings are also just something weird. I looked at my hands, they looked normal, but I saw that the veins on my arms were a much brighter blue than normal. They were glowing a little, and blinking as if they were cooling down from something massive. I wondered if doing that wind thing used energy from my veins, but thats impossible, they carry blood, I wasn't bleeding.
"But seriously Wyatt, what's up with your eyes? Were they always hazel like that?" Scooter said.
"No, for as long as I've known him, they were a dark brown" Klum said.
"Maybe i'm infected or something" I said, scratching my chin.
"With what, the illness of awesome?" Felix said, noticing my veins, "Woah, look at that...."
"Yeah, I've noticed" I said, rolling my eyes.
WHHHHHEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWW
"SHIT! THE ALARM!"
WOOOOOOOOOOP WOOOOOOOOOP
"What is outside of the walls???!!!!!!" I screamed, I flew up to the top of the wall. My jaw dropped and I shouted.
"WE ARE UNDER ATTACK!!!"
