The legend of Eclipse

The battle had gone on for the past hour and both sides where suffering losses, the dead bodies of both humans and ponies scattered the streets of Ponyville but eventually Luna and the guards had driven the enemy away. "Moonshine how are the remaining solders?" Luna asked as she used her magic to disintegrate one of the dead humans bodies
"We lost around ten solders the rest are wounded and tired but are still able to fight." Moonshine said walking towards Luna while Nurse Redheart Ponyvilles best nurse tended to the wounded solders. "I fear we may have started a war." Luna said sadly

"They attacked us first Princess with those flying machines of theirs." Moonshine replied

"I guess so." Luna said "Moonshine can you handle things here on your own?"

"Yes princess." Moonshine answered

"Good because I must return to Canterlot to talk to my sister." Luna said before using her magic to teleport to Canterlot

"So you want me to kill Twilight Sparkle." Leon said as Blueblood led him onto a balcony that looked over a court room. "That is correct mister Mercer." Blueblood replied before handing a bow and some arrows to him. "And I'll be taking these." Blueblood said using his magic to remove Leon's weapons and leaving the room. "Great now I'm being forced to be this guys personal hitman while he sends me to kill the pony who helped Zecora heal my foot." Leon muttered as he hid with the bow as he notched an arrow. "But that son of a bitch doesn't know who he's fucking with." Leon said as he took aim at a bell hanging from the roof that was normally used to call the ponies in the room to attention.

"Sister, what is the meaning of this." Luna yelled as she barged into Celestia's room "How dare you send the guards to arrest Eclipse when he has done nothing wrong, you disgust me how dare you call yourself a princess of Equestia or even his mother. You back stabbing swine."

"Luna..."

"No I don't want you hear your bucking excuses."

"Luna... I..."

"You have sent an innocent stallion to be imprisoned and trialled for TREASON of all things."

"DO YOU THINK I AM NOT HURT BY THIS AS WELL." Celestia yelled back finally losing her patience "My son is in prison because of false evidence, but until that is proved to the counsel I must imprison him otherwise our subjects my turn against us."

"So you would have your own son suffer so that you can maintain a pure reputation." Luna replied

"If I don't Equestia would be at risk of a revolt and we both know what the consequences could be." Celestia answered.

Luna looked at her sister as if she was about to burst into tears at any moment, "J-just promise me you'll do all you can to save him." Luna said sadly

"Cross my heart and hope to fly stick a cupcake in my eye." Celestia replied bringing Luna into a hug.

Eclipse sat in the prison cell resting up after being beaten by Blood Rose and the shadow trot gang even though Celestia had healed his wounds he still needed to rest and regain his strength. While Eclipse sat he kept his ears open for any information he could use to his advantage, as this wasn't his first time in a prison cell (Although it was his first time in a Canterlot prison cell) he had picked up a few tricks and was analyzing the locks so that if worse came to worse he could at least attempt an escape. As Eclipse sat there investigating the lock on the cell door he heard a voice coming down the halls of the dungeon.

"Well, well, well how the mighty have fallen." A pony said to Eclipse who by the light given was revealed to be prince Bloueblood.

"Laugh it up while you can Blueblood couse when I get out of here..."

"HA even an imbecile like you would know that none have ever escaped Canterlot's dungeon no matter how hard they tried." Blueblood replied

"There's a first time for everything, except maybe you finding a mare that like being treated like a door mat now that's gonna be impossible." Eclipse replied smugly

"That's it guard I wish to interrogate Eclipse personally to see if maybe I can loosen his tongue and get some proper information rather than tasteless jokes." Blueblood ordered

"Oh that's harsh Blueblood after all my jokes can't be as tasteless as your taste of fashion."

"Why you little..."

"I'm just kidding that was actually a nice tuxedo you where wearing at the last Great Galloping Gala."

"Oh really?"

"Yeah but uh do they come in stallion sizes?" Eclipse joked

"Alright that is it guard." Blueblood yelled as the guard unlocked Eclipse's cell before dragging him to the interrogation room.

"Sister may we go see Eclipse?" Luna asked

"Yes Luna but I fear there is something you aren't telling me." Celestia replied, so Luna quickly explained the situation about what happened with the humans and the battle that broke out in Ponyville.

"I see this is troubling, go and see Eclipse I meanwhile need to attend a meeting with Twilight Sparkle. When I'm done we will talk about how to proceed with this act of war." Celestia said as she left the room.

Leon stood on the balcony with the bow ready to fire but instead of shooting Twilight like Blueblood had ordered him to Leon intended to shoot the bell in the room to alert them of his presence and explain the situation to whoever was in charge. "Hold it right there." A feminine voice yelled out causing Leon to turn around finding himself face to face with what looked like a anthropomorphic dragon wearing some kind of chain mail armor. "Woah!" Leon said under his breath as he looked at the dragon in front of him. The dragon had dark blue scales and wings that where folded measuring to half her body hight, she had a pair of horns that seemed to be no longer than his middle finger, she seemed to also have two separate eye colors, blue on the left and red on that right where a small scar could be noticed. "Who are you state your business." The dragon asked poking Leon with a bolt hooked in a crossbow that Leon noticed. "L-Leon Mercer uh mam." Leon replied lowering his bow. "Sapphire, princess and emissary of the southern dragon kingdom of Drazon." Sapphire replied still keeping her weapon aimed at Leon. "Why are you armed with a weapon primed to fire up here?" Sapphire asked

"You're not working for Blueblood?" Leon asked thinking that she was just here to keep an eye on him for Blueblood

"Ancients no, I hate that pompous little dung pile." Sapphire said

"Well you see..." Leon began as he explained everything that brought him here from meeting Zecora to Blueblood sending him to kill Twilight while Sapphire stood there her weapon lowered allowing Leon to see to his surprise that Sapphire seemed to have a pair of breasts that Leon guessed was a C cup. "My eyes are up here." Sapphire said causing Leon to look up not realizing he had been staring at her breasts
"S-sorry mam." Leon apologized before his attention was taken back to the room around him as he heard the doors open revealing Twilight to Leon. "Shit." Leon said quickly drawing his bow and firing at the bell.

'DING DING DING.' Twilight looked up in shock as the bell rang and an arrow fell to the ground, as she looked up she saw Leon standing at the balcony acing to her and signaling for her to get to him. Twilight quickly teleported to Leon and began to bombard him with questions such as how he got to Canterlot and where he came from. "...I mean you couldn't use magic to get here you don't have a magic signature to indicate the ability to use magic and..."
"Twilight Blueblood wanted me to assassinate you." Leon interrupted getting impatient "and I think that this Eclipse guy and his arrest is part of it."

"Prince Eclipse was taken to the palace dungeons, maybe we can get some intel from him." Sapphire suggested

"Alright then but how the hell will I be able to get there?" Leon asked

"Simple." Sapphire replied pulling out some rope and quickly tying Leon's hands together "your going to be his cell mate." Sapphire said as she grabbed Leon and took him to the dungeons.
