Story of my life
The Capture
Previous ChapterNext ChapterStar Flame cautiously went up to his door. He was afraid there really was a royal guard out there. He took a deep breath, and breathed out. He opened the door and.....
There was Pinkie, in royal guard armor. Star Flame nearly face-hoofed. He should have known. When he noticed someone was missing, Pinkie had knocked on the door.
"Pinkie don't do that." Star Flame said.
"It was just a prank." Pinkie replied.
"If it was the royal guard, then I wouldn't be here anymore for you to pull pranks on." Star Flame told Pinkie.
"Oh, ok." Pinkie said loosing the tiniest bit of happiness, but quickly regaining it.
"Than you for your understanding." Star Flame said.
Pinkie and Star Flame returned to the living room. There, he saw all the familiar faces, but there was one filly that he didn't recognize. She had a black coat, purple mane and tail, turquoise eyes and she was an alicorn. It took some convincing, but Star Flame got every pony to trust him. While everypony was playing games, he walked up to her.
"Hello there, what's your name?" Star Flame asked.
"M-my name is N-nyx." The little filly replied
"My name is Star Flame" Star Flame answered.
Nyx ran off to Twilight and tried to get her attention. When she did, she told Twilight the news.
"Mom!" Nyx nearly yelled with excitement.
"What, Nyx?" Twilight asked.
"I met a new pony named Star Flame!" Nyx nearly yelled again.
"Where?" Twilight asked looking around.
At that time Star Flame had walked into the bathroom. It was the first time he looked in a mirror since The Incident. He studied himself. Surprisingly, he still had his mane and tail, with a cyan tint and a few holes, they were pointy at the ends. He looked at his front-right leg. It was robotic. He built it after an accident before The Incident. It had holes in it now. His shell was white (so was his magic aurora). But what surprised Star Flame the most were his eyes. Instead of being blue with the white tint, they still had the whites of his eyes outside his irises. His irises, were a light gray. His pupils, were somewhat like a cat's, or Nightmare Moon's, or a dragon's, however you want to think about it. Normal black, but instead of being round, they were slit-like. Plus the fact that he didn't have fangs.* Star Flame smiled at his reflection, then walked back into the living room.
"There's Star Flame!" Nyx said, practically yelling by now, and pointed her hoof at Star Flame.
Everypony turned and looked where Nyx was pointing. Twilight looked at Star Flame. "Nyx, that's not Star Flame, he's just the chang-"
"No, she's right." Star Flame interrupted. Everypony looked at him with confused expressions.
"I wondered why you looked a bit familiar." Rarity said.
"Well, with that being said, anyone have any questions for me?" Star Flame asked. Almost immediately, everypony in the room lined up. This is going to take awhile. Star Flame thought.
After every question was answered star Flame looked at the clock. It read 10:30 Star Flame sighed.
"I'm gonna hit the hay." was all he said before walking into his bedroom and passing out on the bed.
When star Flame woke up in the morning, it was raining outside. When he walked into the living room, he found everypony passed out. guess Pinkie tried to pull an all-nighter. Star Flame thought. Nyx was barely awake, that Star Flame didn't know.
Then, there was a knock at the door. Star Flame went to open it, as he did he asked, "Can I help yo-"
CRACK!!!
Star Flame was interrupted by the sound of the flat end of a spear hitting him on the jaw, not only cracking his chitin, it also nearly broke the bone. The loud noise also woke Nyx. She opened her eyes the slightest bit just in time to see Star Flame get hit with the spear, again, from a guard in the doorway. Nyx's eyes shot open and she went to wake Twilight.
Star Flame couldn't react, the guard was swinging too fast, and eventually the guard hit him on the head again, but not before damaging the rest of his body. Be fore he blacked out he heard Celestia say, "Take him alive, and no severe injuries". All Star Flame had time to think before he blacked out was, Dammit Celestia, they were just warming up to me..
When Twilight woke up from Nyx shaking her, Star Flame was already captured, and was being taken to Canterlot.
Star Flame was gone. He's either going to be executed, interrogated, or both! was all Twilight was thinking at the time.
