Chapters Chapter 1: taking care of things
16 YEARS LATTER
PARIS
It was a bright and sunny day in Paris. Many people were walking down the street and others were going to work. As some cars and people on bikes were passing by, others were talking with one another.
A man wearing an all black suit was walking down the street as he looked to his left and his right as if he felt like he was being watched.
As he kept walking he then walked into an alleyway and stood in the center as he crossed his arms, he looked at his watch a bit before he heard the sound of footsteps.
"who's there?" he said.
He then saw from the other side of the alleyway that it was another man wearing the same black suit as him. "oh, it's only you" the man said "were you followed?".
The other man shook his head "no, I wasn't".
"good, for a moment there, I thought that they would have found you by now" he said "I mean I'm still surprised that they didn't find me yet, and it's only been about three days since you informed me about our brother's death".
"true, but now is not the time for conversation, I have to tell you something".
The man raised his eyebrow "alright".
The other man sighed "I have received word from our other brother's, they told me that they have had another failed attempt in using the restoration spell" he said.
"what! Again!".
The other man covered his mouth "shhh! Keep your voice down" he said "do you want them to find us?".
The man shook his head at him as he uncovered his mouth.
"sorry about that. It's just...well...I just thought that we would be able to bring him back".
"I know it's sad, but were not about to give up just yet" the other man said as he then placed his hand on his brothers shoulder "were gonna bring him back, mark my words".
The man stayed quiet for a bit until he took a deep breathe "ok, I'll hold you to that".
The other man nodded at him "don't worry my dear brother" he said "soon will have night shadow back at our side, and then he'll have his revenge".
The man smiled at him as he then backed up from him "I have to go back to our old base, but I will inform you on any future updates ok" he said, the other man nodded at him "aright".
The two men then walked there separate ways.
As the the man walked out of the alleyway and down the street he didn't know that someone on a rooftop was watching him.
"finally" the figure said.
After the man walked a few feet, he then glanced over to see if anyone was following him.
"whew, I still haven't been spotted yet" he said.
"oh I beg to differ" a voice said.
The man then had sweat coming from the side of his face as he turned his head to see a figure wearing an assassins creed outfit, the only difference was that this outfit was all black and had some silver armored plates on the the shoulders, chest and legs.
The man then started to back up "y-your one of them" he said "your one of there members".
The figure then smiled at him "oh even worse, I'm one of the founders" he said, the man then started to panic as he then bolted. The then sighed as he placed his two fingers on his earpiece "shit, looks like we got a runner" he said.
"don't let him get away, we can't afford that" a voice said over the earpiece.
"copy that boss" he said as he then took off after the man, the man ran down the street as fast as he could avoiding people left and right. He kept looking back to see if the man was chasing him but he was nowhere to be seen, the man kept running as he got out of the crowd and ran down into an abandon building as he locked the door and breathed heavily.
"I..I think I lost him" the man said, as he got to his feet and wiped the sweat from his face he then looked at a mirror that was in front of him as saw that it was him again.
He then turned around with a look of shock on his face "no, but how did you find me?" he asked.
The man then glared at him "it doesn't matter how I found you" he said "all that matters right now is that I get rid of you". The man swallowed his fear as he then transformed into his true form, an alicorn. "then I will kill you" he said "your organization has been hunting us down for over a year now! No matter how many you and your group kill, there will always be another". The alicorn then used his magic as he then formed chainwhip around his attacker.
"now die!" he said as the whip then coiled around the assassin smirked at him as the alicorns whip then started to break apart. "what! But how?" he said.
The assassin rubbed his fingers on his chest "anti magic weapon field" he said "this suit is able to cancel out any magic based weapons that anyone tries to use on me" he said, he then flicked his wrist showing two lighting bolt hidden blades as he then charged at the alicorn and stabbed him in the throat.
"ugh!...worthless...scum" he said as he then started to melt, the assassin then flicked his wrists again as he then walked over to the door and stood outside. He then activated his earpiece again.
"big boss here" he said "target has been killed".
There was nother voice on the other side.
"good job big boss" the voice said.
"thanks, what about you? Is the other target on your end dead?".
"yea, he never got the chance to even run".
"lucky, ok you ready to go back to headquarters?".
"yea, we have some paperwork to get done once we go back home and-" he then stopped talking as there was a beep. "wow, got a call from the wife already?" the assassin said.
"shut up, you know how fluttershy worries about me doing this", the assassin cleared his throat "well don't worry, you can tell her that were coming home" he said.
"you got it bro, I'll come by and pick you up from destination".
"ok, oh and dillon".
"yea bro?".
"you know I'm the one doing the paperwork and not you" Clayton said.
"well that's a real bummer" dillon said sarcastically, Clayton laughed a bit "just pick me up ok" he said.
"ok, I'm on my way" dillon said.
Chapter 2: how things have changed
EQUESTRIA
The world of equestira was luscious and beautiful as ever. The grass was blowing in the wind, the sun was shining brightly, and the clouds in the sky had never looked better. It was almost hard to believe that 16 years had passed. Even though equestira still looked the same, there was something that had changed.
HILL TOP
At the top of a hill there laid a sword stabbed into the ground as a figure was sitting on the hill next to it. The figure was looking at the vast area of land as he took in he fresh air and smiled, as he looked up at the sky to admire the view he then heard a voice call to him.
"kain! Hey kain were are you!?".
Kain then responded.
"I'm up here!" he said.
Another figure then walked up the hill as he stood next to him "I should have figured that you would be up here kain" the figure said. Kain happily sighed "well I'm always up here to enjoy the view Vergil" kain said, Vergil then gently shook his head at him "geez man, ever since we were little you always had a thing for admiring views" he said.
Kain then looked at him "and is that ever a problem to you Vergil?" he asked.
Vergil scratched his head "nope, there's nothing wrong in loving the loving the view and enjoying the fresh air", kain then smiled at him until they both heard a beeping sound coming from Vergil. Vergil then pulled out what was making the noise and saw that it was his earpiece as he then placed it onto his ear and pressed the button on it.
"Vergil here" he said "Mhm...ok got it", he then took his earpiece off "we have to get back home" he said "just got word that the leaders of the wonderbolt assassins are back". Kain then closed his eyes "I see", kain then got up as he then grabbed his sword and placed it on his back.
He then looked over at the city that was a few feet away from them "ready to go?" Vergil asked him.
Kain looked at his area to see if he had forgotten anything "I think so" he said until he remembered something "oh! I almost forgot". He then walked over to a tree as he grabbed his jacket as he held it over his left arm that covered up his cloud and rainbow lighting bolt cutie mark.
"ok now I'm ready" he said, Vergil nodded at him as the two walked back home.
GRAND FREEDOM EMPIRE
The two walked down the path and into the city gates of grand freedom empire. The city was created in 2021, and it has become the main hub for all ponies. The city consist of ponyville, canterlot, and the crystal empire all into one huge city. This was an idea that princess celestia, Luna, and cadance have had on there mind for a long time and they wanted to talk it over with the mane 12 and the ponies. After they announced there idea to the mane 12, they agreed with them about combining the three into one, they all then told the citizens of there plan and to there surprise they all liked the idea. And thus grand freedom empire was born.
Kain and Vergil were walking down the west wing of the city, the city was set up into wings so that nopony or human would get lost.
The west wing was were the entrance gate was at and was were the citizens of ponyville stayed, the south wing was were the rich upper class stayed, the north wing was were the wonderbolts stayed, and the east wing was were the citizens of the crystal empire stayed. Even though the city was broken up into wings everypony treated others with respect, nopony ever thought that they were better than one another, nopony thought that there wing was better than the others. Nothing like that happened, they all saw each other as one large family.
WONDERBOLT ASSASSINS HQ
The wonderbolt assassins headquarters. The special arm forces that grand freedom has to offer. They are the last line of defense against anyone that would dare attack the city. Although the wonderbolt assassins carry the name as the wonderbolts, they aren't the same as them. They are a whole different kind of team.
The wonderbolt assassins are, well as the name implies are assassins that take on the roles of protecting the citizens of grand freedom empire and they will protect them with there life if they have to. Although they are assassins they only use there assassin skills against extreme threats, like terrorism, genocide or worse. There have been some cases that have involved this but they were never in the means of evacuating the city.
This group was created by none other then two of the mane 12's heroes Clayton and dillon.
The two boys thought about this back in 2019, at first Clayton thought that the idea of creating an organization like the wonderbolt assassins was a bit extreme. His cousin understood his decision and told him that it was his choice to continue with the idea or not, as time passed Clayton thought about it and told dillon that they should go with the idea and create the wonderbolt assassins.
They then told there idea to princess celestia. Although she was also a bit worried about there idea, she also thought that it would be a good idea to have a team such as the wonderbolt assassins around to protect not just the citizens but other ponies around the world. She gave them permission and helped fund there organization as well. The boys told the others about this, which they all thought was an alright idea. The headquarters was finished in about five months in 2019, and they have had over 4,000 members in that year and more each year.
Clayton was in his office writing down stacks and stacks of papers, he sighed as he kept placing the written reports in the stacked bin, since Clayton and dillon were the founders of the wonderbolt assassins they were also the leaders of the group. Dillon took the title of boss, as Clayton took the title of big boss. But there was a small catch to this.
Since Clayton took on the big boss rank, that meant that he had all of the paper work to do as his his cousin had to only tran new recruits.
Clayton smiled as he then finished up the last file report as be then placed it in the bin.
"whew, finally I'm done" he said as he then leaned back in his chair and looked at the celling, Clayton had changed over the years, his voice had gotten deeper, he had an x shaped scar on the right side of his face and he had a goatee and a five a clock shadow. He then looked at his desk to see a small portrait of him and his beloved rainbow dash as she and him were holding there beautiful baby boy kain.
As he looked at the photo he then got a call on his intercom that was on his desk "uh excuse me big boss sir" a voice said. Clayton then turned his attention to his intercom "yes?".
"I'm very sorry to bother you, but you have a visitor".
Clayton then smiled to himself, he knew who was here and he knew that he had to meet this visitor face to face "I'll be right down" he said as he then got up from his desk and walked to the door. Meanwhile in the lobby kain and Vergil were sitting as they waited "ugh! How long is this gonna take?" kain complained.
Vergil just looked at him and shook his head "just relax kain" he said "I'm sure he'll be down here soon", kain then sighed "I know, but I really wanna see him".
Vergil patted kain on the arm "oh come on man, you see your father every day, I mean it's not like you never ever see him".
Kain then rubbed his dark blue hair "I know Vergil I know, but I just want to see him today that's all, I mean you wanna see your dad as well", Vergil closed his eyes and smiled a bit "yea...that's right" he said "besides I look up to my parents just as much as you look up to your dad".
"you got that right! Just who the hay do you think I am!" kain said.
Vergil then facepalmed.
"oh celestia, I swear you are just like your father" he said, kain then rolled his eyes at him "whatever, besides a real man has to have something describes him, and that signature quote is what I have", he then pulled out his father's black kamina sunglasses and put them on "and these".
Vergil then looked at him with an unamused look "really? He gave you those?" he asked him.
"yup, this and the Yamato katana".
"I will never understand you sometimes kain".
Kain then placed his hands on the back of his head "that's ok, I don't understand myself either", Vergil then started smiling "so....have you talked to Sara?" he said.
This made kain turn to him with a huge blush on his face "s-shut up!" he said as Vergil continued "oh, so you did talk to her. What did you two talk about? I bet it was how much you wanted to kiss her" he said in a teasing way. Kain only looked away as he had his arms crossed "bro cut it out! Sara and I are just friends" he said.
Vergil then started making hearts with his fingers as kain started to blush more.
"really Vergil" kain said as Vergil started laughing.
"come on Vergil that's enough" a voice said, the two then turned there attention to see that it was dillon. The two then ran over to him "uncle dillon!" kain shouted.
"hey father" Vergil said.
Dillon then placed his hand on Vergil's head as he messed up his pink and black hair "hey son" dillon said, Vergil smiled a bit at him as he started to speak.
"are you finished with work father?" he asked him.
Dillon nodded at him "yup, just let me wait for your uncle to come down ok" he said, Vergil nodded at him. Kain then started to tap his feet "oh that reminds me uncle dillon" kain said, dillon looked at him "what's up?" he said.
Kain then sighed "were in the hay is my father gonna get down here!?".
As soon as he said that he then saw his father walk from behind dillon "you called?" he said.
"dad" kain said as he hugged his father "hey sport, you ready to get out of here?" he asked him, kain rubbed the back of his head "dad I'm 16" he said "you always keep calling me sport", Clayton shrugged "hey, I just think is fits you".
"fine".
The four of them then walked out of the building as they headed on there way home.
SUGERCUBE CORNNER
"hey! Can we use this in the batter pound?" pumpkin cake asked as she looked at the cook book with her brother. The cakes children had grown up into teenagers and have since then become assistant chefs in there families bakery. Pound cake placed a hoof on his chin as he thought "I don't know Sis" he said "I guess we could put it into the batter mix".
"I'll tell ya what this batter needs, some sugar!" a voice said, the twins then looked to there right to see that it was none other than pinkie pie and jack's 12 year old son axel.
The twins then looked at the batter mix "are you sure axel?" pumpkin cake said.
Axel licked his fingers "of course I'm sure! After all that's what my mama would have said", he then ran into the back of the pantry as he pulled out a large bag of sugar and placed it on the floor. The twins walked over to him "need a hand with that sugar bag axel?" pound cake asked him, axel looked at him "yea, it's kinda heavy" he said as pound cake picked it up and walked over to the table with it.
The three then heard the bell ring from the door.
"I got it!" axel said as he ran out of the kitchen and to the font desk "welcome to the sugercube cornner, how may I help you?" he said.
He then saw that it was dillon and his son Vergil.
"Vergil!" he shouted as he hopped over the counter and hugged him tightly "I am so happy to see you!", Vergil patted his friend on the head "same here pal same here". Axel then released him as he backed up a bit "so what can I do for ya?" he asked.
Dillon looked at axel with a smile on his face "well were here to pick up an order that I called in this morning" he said, axel then snapped his fingers as he ran into the kitchen and ran back out with a large pink cake that had white butterfly icing on it "this the order?" he said.
Dillon nodded at him "yup that's the one".
"okie dokie" axel said as he then placed the cake on the counter as he worked with the register "that'll be 20 bits" he said, dillon then pulled out a black sack as he then placed it on the counter and poured out the 20 bits. "there we go" dillon said as he handed axel the money.
"thank you" axel said as he glanced at the kitchen and called out to the twins "need any help in there guys?" he asked.
Pound cake and pumpkin cake then poked there heads out of the kitchen door "mhm" they both said in unison, vergil then tapped axel's shoulder "hey axel".
"yea Vergil?".
"are you guys making cake batter again?".
"yup we sure are, only this time without my party gattling gun".
Vergil then remember about his friends party gattling gun that he got from pinkie pie as a birthday present two years ago, he then started to sniker at him "I take it that you got flour jammed into the gun again?" Vergil asked him. Axel smiled at him as he placed his hands on his head "yup!" he said "and now mama and pop are getting it fixed".
Dillon then messed with one of his dreadlocks as he then looked at his watch "well tell your parents that we said hello" he said, axel then nodded at him rapidly "will do!" he said as he ran back into the kitchen. The two then left the shop as they went home.
GOLDEN OAKS LIBRARY
Twilight and max were in there room in the bed reading a book together. Max had his arm around his sweet loving mare as twilight had her head on his shoulder, since 16 years had passed the mane 12 had grown up into adults. The mane 6 were now at the boys waist as the boys had gotten taller as well, even celestia was amazed at how much her start student had grown, now she was the same height as her.
Twilight nuzzled max's cheek a bit as he stopped reading and looked at her "what was that about?" he asked.
Twilight then licked his lips "oh nothing, just enjoying our reading together" she said in a seductive tone, max then knew what she was getting at as he closed the book and placed it on the side of the bed. Then then started to unbutton his shirt as twilight then kissed him deeply. Suddenly there was a knock at there bedroom door.
"mother, papa. Are you two in there?" a voice said on the other side, the two then stopped there embrace as they Eskimo kissed each other as they turned to the door "yes were in here sweetheart" twilight said.
"may I come in? I have something to talk to you about".
They then looked at each other then at the door "sure thing Sara" max said.
The door then opened showing The daughter of twilight and max, there little 16 year old bookworm Sara. Sara walked over to them as she hugged both her mother and father as she then sat on there bed.
"so" Sara said "I have something to tell you both".
The two then looked at each other then back at there daughter "alright" twilight and max said in unison, Sara then took a deep breathe as she then thought of the words to say "well...it's about high school" she said "I know that I start first thing in the morning tomorrow". Twilight nodded at her "yes, your father and I both know that you start school tomorrow" she said.
"and you both know that I will be going with my friends as well".
Max then crossed his arms "yes, we know that as well" he said. "so why do you act so worried?" twilight said as she placed her hoof on sara's shoulder. Sara then started curling her hair with her finger "well it's just".
"yes?".
She then sighed "well it's just that were going to school with a bunch of other ponies, not that it's a big deal or anything. But were the children of legendary heroes. I mean the mane 12's own kin going to school, what if somepony starts asking us questions or something? or what if the stallions start hitting on me, megan, or raven?" she said.
Max then glanced at his wife as she glanced at him as the two stood silent before laughing. Sara then crossed her arms "this isn't funny, I mean this a really big deal" she said.
Twilight and max then stopped laughing as they then pulled her over to them.
"oh Sara" twilight said "you worried about this? Hehe, looks like max and I might have to start calling you fluttershy the second". Sara rolled her eyes "but mother".
Max then messed up her hair "now Sara just because were legendary heroes doesn't mean that you should start freaking out about it" he said "just relax and have fun, your only young once", Sara was about to protest until she then just dropped the subject.
"alright" she said "I guess l'll give it a try".
"that's our girl" max said as he then wrapped his other arm around Sara and twilight. Sara sighed in her head "papa is right, I should just relax".
CAROUSEL BOUTIQUE
Rarity was walking back and fourth as she kept pulling out clothing after clothing. She then placed them on the bed as she then carefully looked at them "what do you think of this one dear?" she said as she held it up to her daughter raven's waist, raven looked just like her mother in every way. She had her mother's hair style, her mother's sense of fashion, her mother's manners, and her mother's beauty. It was almost hard to believe that she was only 14 years old.
Raven then looked at the dress that her mother was holding up with her magic as she examined it and shook her head "no that won't do, the colors would clash with my hair" she said. "besides, I want to look my very best for school tomorrow".
Rarity smiled at her "I figured, how about this one?" she said as she levitated a dress that had a red long skirt and a blue long sleeve shirt, raven pondered a bit as she nodded at her mother "I guess that will do" she said "although I think that a scarf would go well with this outfit". Rarity nodded at her as she then laid the outfit on the bed and moved the other clothes back into the closet. Raven then moved her hair from her face showing her cutie mark that was on her cheek as she walked out of the room with rarity.
SWEET APPLE ACRES
Sam and applejack were outside int the field getting apples from the apple trees, since grand freedom empire was a very large city they were able to put in a huge mount of land in the west wing. Sure the other wings had parks and some bits of land, but the west wing was were the huge amount of land was at. Plus it was the only wing to get any of the apple families famous apple pies and other treats.
Since the mane 6 had gotten older applejack was now able to buck down a whole tree full of apples, she walked up to the last tree as she bucked it as the apples fell into the bucket. Applejack wiped her head "whew, that's the last one sam" she said. Sam then carried the bucket of apples in his arms "alright applejack" sam said, sam had gotten very muscular over the years and he has even grown a full beard too.
As the two then placed the last bucket of apples in the cart they then saw someone running toward them.
"ma, daddy!" a voice said in a southern accent. The figure stopped right in front of the cart to revile that it was Megan, sam and applejack's 13 year old daughter or little Appleseed as they called her. "you two need help with the cart?" Megan asked.
Sam and applejack looked at her as applejack rubbed her head "sure thing sugar cube" applejack said, Megan then ran to the front of the cart as she held onto one side of the cart as her father held onto the other side as they pulled it back to the house as applejack followed behind them. "so" sam said "you ready for high school tomorrow?", Megan looked at sam as she smiled at him "you bet! I know that this will be different from when we were in kindergarten" she said "but I bet it will be even better".
Sam chuckled a bit at her words "well that is true, it will be very different from when you and your friends were in kindergarden. But hey at least you get to be with them again so you'll have someone to hang around", Megan nodded "yup, I sure can't wait to start tomorrow" she said.
The three then stopped at the house as they then picked up a bucket of apples and brought them into the house one by one.
MEANWHILE BACK ON EARTH
ABANDONED NEW PORT CITY
The once thriving area known as new port city was now nothing more than an empty ghost town. The city's buildings were broken and some of it's large towering structures have lost there color, ever since night shadow had been defeated his hold on the humans was broken. They had no memories of what events that took place, but with there government building gone the city's people had no economy and thus they decided to leave there once wonderful city to be left in the dust. All of the population moved away and formed a new city that was named epsilon city, a city that is still thriving to this very day.
The long forgotten city was then under night shadow's army, the army that he created and said that he would use on equestira. But after he was killed his army was in disarray and without there master to guild them they felt truly lost.
The group of cloned alicorns all gathered around in the park as they discussed what they had to report.
"order! Order!" one alicorn said "now I know that we have been going through some rough times".
One alicorn shouted at him "rough times!? You idiot! We were once a powerful force to be reckoned with! But now we've gone from the most powerful army to only 1500! And you call this hard times!?".
The alicorn then used his magic on his brother as he flung him into a building as he then brought him to his gaze.
"you fool!" he said "you think I haven't known that! Thanks to those residents in equestira that have been hunting us for over a year now, and the fact that we have failed once again to revive our master! Has put us in a dilemma! I know that were not doing so well! But I'm doing the best that I can to help us all grasp the situation!" he said, the other alicorns then started talking to one another.
The alicorn then made a cloud of thunder roar over there heads "silence!" he said "now as leader of this group I am going to make sure that we will get though this. As long as I am in control we will make it".
The other alicorns just looked at him until a voice was heard "you really think YOU can lead this group?". The lead alicorn then had a glare on his face "who said that!? Show yourself! Unless you are not strong enough", the group of alicorns then moved out of the way as four figures wearing hoods came forward.
"so, you think that I am not able to lead my brothers?" he said.
"I think think that you will never be able to lead, let alone have the power to be in control" one voice said, the lead alicorn then made his horn glow as he summoned a large sword "you will pay for such an insult!" he said as he swung his sword at them, one of the figures then raised there hoof over there head making the sword stop in it's place.
"what! But how can that be!?" he said.
Before he could look he was then stabbed in the neck by one of the other hooded figures. The alicorn then fell to the ground as he bleed "just...just who are you four?" he asked.
One of the figures then walked up to him as they then removed the hood from there face "I am queen chrysalis" she said "and I am night shadows wife".
Chapter 3: welcome to the academy
The alicorns were stunned by what they all heard "y-your the wife of our master?" one alicorn said.
Queen chrysalis glanced at him "yes, night shadow and I have been together ever since we were young" she said "my husband has told me about your little encounter with the mane 6" she said.
"y-yes...we have fought against them".
"I see, well I see that your efforts were a complete waste of my husbands work" she said "because you still were defeated and you still let my husband get killed!".
The other hooded figure then placed it's hoof on her shoulder "clam down chrysalis" the figure said "you don't have to waste your anger out on these failures".
Chrysalis started to calm down a bit "I know sombra. I'm just upset", sombra patted her back "now now, I know that you were heartbroken when we all found out about my older brothers death, but mark my words. We will make the mane 6 pay!" he said.
"it's not just the mane 6 remember" the other figure said.
"that's right dear brother, you forget that one of the letters that father had sent us was about how the mane 6 were with some humans". The other hooded figure hissed "humans! A worthless race that should be eradicated from the world! What would the elements of harmony want with a bunch of rats!?".
"now brother, I'm sure that there is a good reason why they would want to need them".
"who's side are you on!?".
"I'm on our fathers side of course".
"well you sound like your on there side!".
"helsing! Alucard! That's enough!" sombra said "your mother doesn't need to hear the both of you arguing" sombra said.
"yes uncle" alucard and helsing said in unison.
Sombra sighed as he then looked at the large group of alicorn clones "well then, now that we are here. I think that were going to make a few changes" he said. One of the alicorns looked at sombra puzzled "what kind of changes?" he asked.
Sombra smiled at him "well the first thing should be obvious, were going to be taking control of this little army". The other alicorns looked at each other with uneasy looks, they had been hitting rock bottom for over a year now, and after time and time again they have been thinking of new ideas to get themselves back up as the most powerful army that night shadow had ever created. But this has only caused problems within the group and not for the better.
Sombra then walked over to him and placed his hoof around his neck "now don't worry" he said "will make sure that we make all of you the most powerful force that equestria has ever seen", the alicorns smiled a bit hearing that. Chrysalis then then stood forward as she glanced at everypony "alright!" she said "now that the four of us are here were going to be in control for the rest of your worthless lives!". The alicons looked at her as she continued "my husband may be gone but I shall make sure that his dream will not be in vain! We will become the most powerful army in the world! Once we have gotten this little army back to it's former glory, we will then take over equestria!".
The alicorns then roared and stomped there hoofs as they heard her speech as queen chrysalis smiled darkly "I will will make sure that your death and your dream will not be in vain my love" she said to herself.
EQUESTRIA
It was another sunny day in equestria. As the residents of grand freedom empire were going about there everyday work. But today was also the day that the mane 12's children would be going to there first day of school at the academy.
FLUTTERSHY'S HOUSE
"Vergil sweetie" fluttershy said "time to wake up, you have a big day today".
Vergil was tossing and turning in his bed as he finally woke up as he opened his door to see his mother, Vergil yawned as he rubbed his eyes "morning mom" he said. Fluttershy smiled at him as she gently kissed his head "morning Vergil" she said.
Vergil looked away from his mother as he smiled a bit "mom come on, I'm not 3 anymore" he said. Fluttershy only giggled a bit "oh I'm sorry, I guess I'm making that an old habit" she said. Vergil placed his hand on fluttershy's back "it's ok mom" he said.
Fluttershy smiled at him as he then walked past her and into the bathroom, fluttershy then walked downstairs as she saw her husband doing push ups shirtless. Fluttershy bit her lower lip as she watched him workout, she always had a major weakness when it came to dillon exercising as it always turned her on. She then shook her head to keep herself focused as she walked over to him and sat next to his side.
"nine hundred and one, nine hundred and two, nine hundred and three!" dillon said as he then sat on his knees as he panted, he then glanced over to his side to see fluttershy smiling at him.
"finally beat your old recored huh?" she asked.
Dillon nodded at her as he then placed his right fullmetal arm on her back and stroked her mane gently "yea, but I'm gonna stop for today" he said "besides. I have to look over a certain little cute mare at the moment" he said as he licked her cheek causing fluttershy to blush madly. She then leaned over to his face as they both stared into each others eyes.
Fluttershy then placed her hoofs on his shoulders "oh really?" she said "and can you tell me who this mare looks like?". Dillon then nuzzled her a bit as he smiled "well she has a pink mane, beautiful eyes, and a very sweet and loving personality", dillon then kissed her lips "and she is the best husband in all of equestria". Fluttershy then blushed even more as the two of them then started making out.
Vergil then ran downstairs as he saw his parents kissing.
"oh please, can you two take it outside" he said.
Dillon and fluttershy broke there kiss as they looked at there son, the two of them then got up and walked over to him.
"oh look at you" fluttershy said "you look so adorable, it's almost hard to believe that you've grown up so fast and are now going to the academy", Vergil scratched the back of his head "well mom it's only been 16 years, I mean we all knew that this was going to happen sooner or latter" Vergil said.
Dillon then placed his hands on Vergil's shoulders "Vergil it doesn't matter, to us your still our little boy no matter how old you get" he said Vergil then nodded at him "right father".
"that's my boy, come on. Your mother and I will walk with you to the academy" he said.
Vergil then had a shocked look on his face.
"b-but father!" he said "I know that the two of you used to do that with me when I was little and going to preschool, but you don't have to do that with me when I'm going to the academy".
Dillon snickered at him "hey it was your mother that thought of the idea".
"what! Mom!".
Fluttershy then placed her hoof on his head "Now Vergil you know how I am when it comes to your safety" she said, Vergil facedpalmed "but mom it's only a few blocks from the house" he said.
Fluttershy shook her head at him "I don't care, you are my baby and I will make sure that you will be safe". Vergil crossed his arms "you let me go outside the walls of the city" he said. Fluttershy sighed happily at him "that's because you have someone with you, I wouldn't be able to sleep or do anything if you went outside grand freedom empire by yourself".
"ok now that I can understand but-".
"no more buts sweetie, come on let's get ready to go" she said.
Vergil sighed as he then started to smile "alright mother".
As the three of them then walked over to the door and opened it, they were then greeted to none other than raven.
"good morning raven" fluttershy said.
"good morning" raven said "and how are the three of you doing this fine morning?" she asked.
Dillon glanced at his son "oh were just going to walk Vergil over to the academy" he said, raven then formed a smile across her face "oh that is so sweet" she said as she then pinched Vergil's right cheek "it's so cute to see your parents walk you to the academy on your first day".
Vergil then moved raven's hand off of his face "come on raven knock it off" he said, raven laughed a bit as she held her hands behind her back "sorry I just couldn't help myself" she said.
"I bet you couldn't".
Vergil then hatched an idea "hey mom, is it alright if raven walks with me to the academy?" he said.
Fluttershy then looked at him then at dillon as he looked at her and nodded at her, fluttershy then looked at Vergil "oh...alright" she said "just promise me that you'll be safe ok". Vergil nodded at her as he then hugged both his parents "will do, I promise" he said as he then gently took ravens arm "come along raven, let us be off" he said.
Raven was about to say something but was cut off as Vergil took her by arm as they walked away from dillon and fluttershy, the parents waved at the two as they were then out of sight. "dillon" fluttershy said.
"yes love?".
"you think that Vergil will be alright on his first day at the academy? I mean what if he gets bullied or he forgets were his looked is? Or gets lost? Or-" she was cut off as dillon locked his lips with hers deeply until he broke the kiss as he then stroked her hair.
"you worry too much fluttershy" dillon said "he'll be just fine. Trust me".
Fluttershy looked at dillon as she then laid her head on his shoulder "alright" she said.
Dillon then kissed her head "good, now you know since I have the day off from work. I think that we should spend some time with each other" he said in a seductive tone. Fluttershy's cheeks went red as she then jumped into his arms even though she was same height as him he was still able to carry her with ease. "I can't wait" she said as she licked his lips and bit his shoulder as they went into the house.
meanwhile down he road Vergil and raven were walking down the street as the two talk amongst each other.
"you only did that so you wouldn't want your mother to embarrass you at the academy" raven said.
Vergil nodded at her "yup, I mean I understand why my mother wanted to do that but she's just so overprotective", raven then shook her head at him "well she loves you, besides that's how some parents are sometimes. They care about there children and will do anything to protect them".
Vergil nodded at her "I know, I just wish that I could do some things without my mother watching over me 24/7" he said, the two of them then walked over to the apple family farm so they could get Megan.
Inside Megan was at the table as she was eating an apple with her sister applebloom, "so what do ya think were gonna do at the academy?" applebloom said.
Megan placed her apple on her plate as she then pondered at her question "I don't really know sis" she said "I don't really know for sure what were gonna do". "well I'm sure that the two of ya will figure it out once ya get there" applejack said as she walked into the kitchen, Megan got from her seat and hugged her "morning mama" she said.
Applejack rubbed her head "morning Megan" she said "you ready for yer first day at the academy?".
"yup, and I can't wait".
"well ya better get ready to go so ya won't be late".
Megan nodded at her as they then heard a knock at the front door. Megan got up and walked over to the door and looked in the peep hole to see raven and Vergil.
"who's at the door?" applejack asked.
Megan turned around as she then ran over to the closet and grabbed her boots "it's Vergil and raven" she said "looks like they got here early", as Megan was getting her boots on her mother then walked into the kitchen and over to applebloom. "so are ya ready to start yer first day?" applejack said, applebloom looked at her sister and smiled "you bet big Sis" she said "I really can't wait to see sweetie belle and scootaloo once I get there".
"well I know that they'll be happy to see you too".
Applebloom then got out of her chair and walked over to the door as she waited for her little sister Meagan. Meagan then ran into the kitchen and grabbed her bagged lunch as she kissed applejack on the cheek "bye mama, applebloom and I will be back soon" she said as she ran over to the door and walked out with applebloom closing it behind her, applejack smiled as she suddenly then heard footsteps come into the room.
"megan's really grown up huh?" sam said.
Applejack looked to see sam as he was sitting on the counter. Applejack nodded at him "yup, our little sapling has grown up into a tree".
DOWN THE ROAD
Applebloom, Megan, raven, and Vergil were all walking down the city streets conversing with one another as they headed for the academy.
"you mean to tell us that your mother wanted to walk you to school?" raven said.
Vergil nodded "that's right, but to be honest I can understand why. I mean she's seeing her son growing up and she wants to be there for every single moment" he said.
Megan snickered a bit "well, I hope that she doesn't try to come with ya on yer honeymoon when ya get married one day" she said, Vergil laughed at her comment "haha, oh man knowing my mother I bet she would try" he said. The four of them kept walking until they saw canterlot castle in there sights.
CANTERLOT CASTLE
as the four walked into the castle's entrance applebloom then walked away from them "well I'ma go look for the girls" she said "I'll see ya later ok guys". The three nodded at her as she then left to find her friends, as the three of them stood there they were all then greeted by none other than axel.
"hey you guys!" axel said as he ran at them and hugged them tightly. "axel" Megan said "oh boy are we glad to see you", axel smiled widely at them "same here, we were hoping that the three of you would show up" he said.
"we?" raven said.
Axel then nodded at her as Sara walked over to them "you should know very well raven who the other three are" Sara said as she had a smile on her face. Raven chuckled a bit "hehe, forgive me for not remembering dear" she said "I guess I'm still tired".
"your still tired? How long did you stay up?" a voice said. The five of them then looked over to there right to see kain leaning back on the wall with a grin on his face. Vergil walked over to him as the two then high five each other "heh, I figured that you would be here before us" Vergil said.
Kain shook his head at him "not really, axel was the one that got here early, then came me and Sara" he said "but let's save that for latter, right now we have to head over to the main hall". The six of them then walked down the hallway as they all headed into the main hall aka the ballroom.
As they opened the doors they were astounded to see a huge amount of other ponies there age talking with one another and such, the six of them walked in and stood near a wall as they watched the other ponies that would soon become there class mates. Suddenly there was huge flash of white light as a large white alicorn pony, a dark blue alicorn pony, and a pink alicorn pony appeared on the stage near the podium. The white alicorn then walked up to the mike as she tapped a bit before she spoke:
"good morning" she said "I am princess celestia, and welcome little ones to the academy".
Chapter 4: making a name for ourselves
Everyone then became quiet as celestia spoke "now then, I know that your all very eager to go to your classes. But my sister Luna and my niece cadence and I have decided to do something a little...different this year" she said with a smile on her face as Luna stepped forward "my sister is right, this year we will be doing something very different this year" she said.
One of the ponies in the group raised there hoof.
"yes?" Luna said.
The pony that raised it's hoof was dark blue with a black mane and had a cloud cutie mark, "what are we going to be doing this year?".
Luna then smiled a bit a him "well, for this year at the academy, we will be creating teams for this year. These teams will consist of six ponies and we will be taking three groups and teach them for over a week, then next week we will switch teachers" she said "have I answered your question..ummm".
"storm streak" he said.
"ah thank you, have I answered your question storm streak?".
Storm streak nodded as Luna then turned her attention back at the crowd of young ponies. "now then" she said "we will now ask that you all find a pony that you'll be with for these four years and form a group of six, we also want you to create a name for your team as well".
Everypony then scattered about as they went to find somepony that they will be with for four years, as everypony was going all over the mane 12's children stood next to the wall as they watched everyone else.
"so here we go" Sara said.
"so, were going to be in a group of six and we need to come up with a name for our team" raven said, axel then started jumping up and down "oh oh oh we should name our team the jumping beans!" he said, the others looked at him with there heads shaking "sorry axel, but that might not work out" Megan said as she placed a finger on her chin "hmm, how about the zap apps" she said.
Raven looked at her with narrow eyes "uhhh no darling, that would not be such a good name" she said as Megan rolled her eyes "well then, what's your idea for a team name?" she asked, raven smiled as she placed her hands on her hips "why of course I do! Our name shall be the dazzling diamonds" she said as Vergil smirked at her a bit, raven looked at him with a raised eyebrow "what's with the smile?" she said.
Vergil opened his eyes at her "sorry raven, although that name is very...sexy it might not be the one that were looking for" he said. Raven turned her head as she hid her smile at Vergil's comment, Sara then looked at him "so, what name do you think we should have?".
"well...hmmm I think that we should be called the chimeras, I don't really know why I thought of that name. Guess it sounded cool", raven then walked over to him as she placed her hand on his shoulder "I think it's wonderful name" she said. Vergil smiled a bit as they all then heard celestia stomp her hoof.
Everypony looked at her as she then cleared her throat "alright everypony, have you all thought of a name and picked out your groups?" she said, everypony nodded as she had a bright smile on her face "alright then, I will now ask you to tell us your teams name and meaning of that name".
Celestia then placed a hoof on her chin as she then looked at who to pick, she then pointed her hoof at the cutie mark crusaders "have the three of you thought of a name for your team?" she asked. The three smiled as they all then shouted "yup, our team is called THE MIGHTY SUPER CRUSADERS! Our team name is the meaning of friendship!" they said in unison. Sweetie belle then stepped forward "our group consist of me, applebloom, scootaloo, babs seed, diamond tiara, silver spoon" she said. Celestia then looked at the others in the group "did you all think of this together?" she said, the six of them all nodded as celestia then looked at the group.
"hmmmm, ah storm streak" she said "do you have a group name?". Storm streak looked at princess celestia and nodded "yes mam, our team name is called the hornet wasp, our name meaning is to show others that we are calm but fierce like a nest of hornets" he said.
Celestia nodded at him as she then turned her attention to the mane 12's children, she then had a huge grin come onto he face "well, I was hoping to see the six of you" she said as everypony turned to them. The six children then looked at her "knowing the six of you, I can already tell that you have a name for your team? She asked. The five of them looked at each other as they quickly came up with names for there team.
"w-well princess celestia" Sara said "we kinda...umm".
"yes? Do not be afraid to tell me".
"well...a-are team is...well it's-" sara was cut off as kain then pointed to the celling as he then shouted "IT'S GONNA BE A LIVING LEGEND!". The other five then looked at kain with blinking eyes as he continued "OUR TEAM NAME IS GONNA BE ONE THAT YOU'll NEVER FORGET! OUR TEAM IS THE DRIVING FORCE OF MOTIVATION! THE GRAND MASTER OF JUSTICE! THE SAVIOR OF GRAND FREEDOM EMPIRE! WE SIX ARE BORN FROM THE MIGHTY HEROES, AND ARE THE NEXT GENERATION OF SOON TO BE HEROES! WE NEVER GIVE UP! WE NEVER SURRENDER! AND WE NEVER STOP UNTIL WE WIN! THIS IS THE WAY HOW RAINBOW SIX ROLLS! JUST WHO THE HAY DO YOU THINK WE ARE!".
Everypony then yelled and cheered at kain's little speech as celestia stomped her hoof a bit to settle them all down "now now young ones" she said as she looked at the now named rainbow six. "so" Luna said "your team is a name that will never forget hm?". Kain crossed his arms as he pulled off one of his father's grins "that's right princess Luna! We six are the next in line to becoming legendary heroes! Were the undying force of motivation!" he said.
Luna couldn't help but giggle a bit "well then, since the six of you are going to be the next in line to carry out your parents legacy. I think that It would be fair to give the six of you some extra class time on some days". The four of them then looked at kain with narrow glares, kain simply stuck out his tounge at them. Sara giggled at him as she blushed a bit, she really liked kain's speech and the name that he gave them no to mention she really wanted to do some extra work to increase her grades, she made a mental note to thank kain for that.
"alright everypony" celestia said "I think that will end it here, the three of us will see you all in a five minutes in the castle gardens. Oh I almost forgot to mention that you'll all be getting two new teachers as well tomorrow" she said, everypony nodded as they all walked out of the ball room in there groups. Team rainbow six walked down the hallway as raven crossed her arms "I can't believe you kain" she said "I can't believe that you would make a complete fool of yourself in front of everypony. And not only that, but now we have to get extra class time from now on".
Kain simply shrugged "hey I don't see what the big deal is?" he said "and besides at least we have a name for our team".
"how is rainbow six even considered a team name?" she said.
Kain smirked a bit "our team is the undying force of motivation, the embodiment of life for our young generation!, we are-" he was then cut off by raven who placed a finger on his lips "never mind I get it".
Kain rolled his eyes as he then looked at the others "so what are you guys gonna do when you get home?" he asked, Sara glanced over at him "well you should know what I'm gonna do when I get home" she said. Kain simply smiled at her "yup, your gonna be catching up on your reading", Sara nodded as axel then grabbed kain's arm "and I'm gonna be making treats for tomorrow so I can bring them to everypony!" he said "hey! Maybe you can help me out".
"I don't see why not, sure I'll help ya out axel" he said as axel gave him a large smile, Megan then started to think "so what do ya guys think that princess celestia is gonna teach us when we get to the castle gardens?".
Vergil moved his hand through his hair as he then answered megan's question "not sure Megan, maybe she might tell us about the history or something" he said, "well whatever she teaches us, I hope that she talks about the wonderbolt assassins" kain said "because I plan to earn the rank of big boss one day".
Vergil then placed his hand on his shoulder "well don't get so cocky there buddy" he said "you forget that I'm joining the wonderbolt assassins as well". Kain nodded at him "you think i'd forget? Of course I know that your joining the wonderbolt assassins" he said, as the six of them were talking they were then heard someone call out to them "excuse me" the voice said. The six of them then turned around to see that it was none other than princess celestia.
"princess" Sara said as they all bowed to her. Celestia smiled as she placed a hoof on sara's shoulder "hehe, you don't have to bow to me really" she said as they got up. "what brings you here princess celesita?" axel said.
Celesita then looked at them with a small serious look on her face "I have come to tell you something very important" she said.
WONDERBOLT ASSASSINS HQ
meanwhile at the assassins headquarters Clayton and dillon were walking down the hallway as they were looking over the paperwork.
"seems like there's nothing new in the reports today" Clayton said.
Dillon nodded "yea, I looked over the papers five times to make sure that we didn't miss anything" he said, as the two were looking over the paperwork they then heard a voice on the speaker above them "calling big boss and boss, we have a problem on the training grounds" the voice said. The boys then sighed as Clayton rubbed his head "oh crap not this again" he said.
Dillon shook his head "I bet I know who it is that's causing trouble again" he said, Clayton then placed his hands in his pocket as the two then headed to the training grounds.
At the training grounds there stood a large group of ponies in a large circle as two of them were in the center. "you call yourself a wonderbolt assassin!?" one of the voices in the center of the circle said "your not even capable of standing on your own two feet!", the pony that was on the ground was light blue with a black and green mane and a metal wing cutie mark.
"your one to talk" the other said "you totally knocked me down and started kicking me for no reason! You can't do that to a newcomer", the other pony gritted her teeth at him "how dare you talk to me like that" she said "you think that you can talk to a assassin that has been here longer than you!".
"said the assassin that is still a private".
"you watch your mouth you worthless-" she was then cut off from finishing her sentence as she heard a familiar voice "SPARKPLUG!" Clayton yelled as everypony turned to him as they gave him some room as he and dillon walked over to the two.
"big boss sir" sparkplug said.
Clayton had his arms crossed as he tapped his foot and glared at her "what do you think your doing sparkplug!" he said, sparkplug then looked at him as she swallowed her fear "sir, I was teaching this new recruit the ropes" she said.
"buck that! You messed with me after I was minding my own business!" he said.
Sparkplug then started to get angry "you shut up to stupid little runt! I'm so going to get you after this!".
"ENOUGH!".
Sparkplug jumped at clayton's outburst.
"this has been the 45th time that you have been harassing another pony!" Clayton said "we have given you time and time again to change your ways and hoped that you would treat your bothers and sisters with respect! But I see now that we are just wasting our time with you!" he said, sparkplug then held her head down. "I should deserve better respect than this" she muttered under her breath.
"what was that!?".
"nothing.....big boss".
Clayton then turned his back to her "your on probation for 4 months sparkplug". Sparkplug had her mouth hang open " 4 months! You can't do that!" she yelled.
"you leave me with no choice".
"this is outrageous! I've been with the wonderbolt assassins for over 6 years! And your gonna put me on probation!?" she said.
Dillon then looked at her with a glare "we should have put you on probation a long time ago" he said, sparkplug then snapped at him "how dare you!" she said. Clayton then turned his head to her "you want us to make it 8 months?" he threatened.
Sparkplug then stayed quiet as she glared at the ground "no...sir".
"very well, please go to your locker and get your gear" he said as he walked over to look at the new recruit, sparkplug then walked past the crowd as she had a hateful look in her eyes.
As soon as she left dillon and Clayton looked over the Pegasus to see if he had any injuries "were very sorry about that" dillon said.
The pegasus waved his hoof "it's alright".
Clayton then smiled at him a bit "so, your our new recruit huh?" he said, the pegasus nodded "care to give us your name".
"sure thing" he said "my name is stormwing".
