Bwig Brudder

A small pegasus filly made her way through the forest, tears falling down her face. She brushed aside small shrubbery, her grey coat contrasting highly with her blonde mane. her eyes were a golden yellow and slightly askew from their center. She gave a grunt and struggled to pull a small basket behind her, the weaved twigs brimming with apples. This went on for hours, and the sun had fell below the horizon, its golden light giving way to the soothing tones of the moon.
With a final grunt, she pushed the basket over the hill. She breathed a sigh of relief and separated a pair of bushes. She cried even harder at the scene before her.
In the middle of a clearing, were a pair of ponies. Their flesh had been ripped open and the meat chewed thoroughly. Their eyes were lifeless and both of their mouths were frozen in a scream of terror.
The small filly wiped away her tears and pushed the basket over to the pair. Once close to the bodies, she took an apple from the basket and stuck it into the Stallion's mouth. "Don't worry daddy, I brought some food so you won't get hungry."
She pushed the Stallions jaw shut and crunched the apple between his teeth, small bits landing on his grey fur and in his green mane.
The filly placed a small hug on the Stallion's foreleg, gripping it tightly.
"I love you daddy. But, I have to feed mommy now."

The small filly rustled her wings and turned to the other corpse. Her eye's staring at the Mare's blue coat and blonde mane. She stuffed the apple in her mouth and repeated the process, The filly sat down and began to eat her own apple. Stopping occasionally to ask questions to her parents.

"Mommy, Daddy? Why won't you talk to me?"

The filly never got an answer, and this time it was no different.

"I guess it's because I'm a bad foal.."

The little filly started to cry again. Tears falling down her young face, glistening in the moonlight. She rubbed them away with her hoof, and looked at the shining fluid. She stared at the wet spot on her hoof, staring into the stars reflecting inside.

"The stars are sure pretty."

Suddenly there was a spark against the blackness of space. A blue flash of lightning. Then another appeared, and another. Soon the whole sky was filled with tendrils of blue and purple colors.
The filly's eyes opened up in wonderment. Her mind taking in every shade. Then, within the center of the spectacle, a dark blue light formed. The filly watched in amazement as she watched the dot grow bigger, then suddenly catch flame. She then realized that the object was racing towards her, and ran out of the way. Soon, a whistling sound forced her ears shut, and a mighty explosion threw her off the ground. She landed a few yards away, dirt and tree branches falling around her.
She laid there for a few minutes, not daring to look at the wreckage.
A half hour passed, and she worked up the courage to look.

I made the Thunderhawk dive and roll as I dodged the las blasts that were attempting to send me to oblivion.
I pulled hard on the flight wheel, making the colossal ship go for a nose splitting dive.
I smiled as I saw my target just a few seconds away.

A warp storm, a massive vortex of swirling energy that, Emperor willing, would send me somewhere away from my former battle brothers.
I recapped my so called 'Heresy.' That led me to my brothers trying to kill me.

It had started on a lowly planet, I hadn't even cared about it enough to learn its name. This, was the beginning.

The world was under siege by Demons, and the second we landed, we had become under assault by the vile hordes. Many of us fell. The battle waged for weeks, and it was here that I realized these beings to be the true enemy.
Soon, we noticed that less and less of the demons were appearing in their raids, as to why was unknown at the time.

We found that an Eldar war party had arrived and began to fight the demons, pinching them between our forces. I thought that this would have been a glorious unification of two mighty forces.

I was wrong.

As soon as our forces met, the slaughter began anew. Our soldiers killing each other.

This could not have been the will of the Emperor.

After the battle, I reported to our Company's chaplain and spoke my mind. I was declared a heretic and sentenced to death.
I slew the Chaplain and made my way to the ship bays, trying to avoid my brothers.
Once I made it to the bay, I stole the Thunderhawk and fled.

So now here I was, trying to get away from my brothers, I was about to enter the warp storm.

I covered my eyes to shield me from the light and prayed to the Emperor that I would live.

I kicked away at the wreckage of the Thunderhawk, the door coming away easily. I was immediately assaulted with cold air, and a dark forest landscape. Carefully, I walked out of the wreckage, finding two dead xenos a few yards away. They looked Terran in origin, but were brightly colored, and guessing from the looks on their faces, they were sentient.
I began to walk back to the wreckage, to take anything I would need. When suddenly, I heard a small sniffle behind me, turning to look to where the noise came from, I found a small xenos foal, crying into its hooves. I knelt down to the small xenos, and placed a finger under it's chin, forcing it to look at me.

"Tell me, small one, what has you so upset?"

Normally, or rather, formerly, I would have crushed it beneath my boot. But I believe now, that the Emperor sought the unification of all things, ave for the Tyranids, as they are the true xenos.

The small foal wiped away her tears, and pointed to the other two corpses.
"Mommy and Daddy won't talk to me."

I felt a pang of sorrow strike my heart as I heard this, this small xenos was unaware that it's parents no longer remained in this world.

"Child, listen to me, your parents no longer live. They are gone. I am sorry. Should you see fit, I shall watch over you."

The small foal smiled at this, but tears still fell. She got to her hooves, and with a face that would turn a chaos marine into 'D'aaw'ing blubber, asked a question.

"I'm Derpy Hooves, and will you take me home?"

"Of course child, But praytell, what were you doing out here?"

"Mommy and Daddy said that they were going here to make a 'Sacrifice' and made me come along, at least until some Manticore's got here."

I mused over this information, they obviously planned to sacrifice the child. So, The Emperor obviously set up this meeting and I would not defy his will.

"Very well Derpy, I shall take you to your home. Come, let us go."

The filly smiled and began walking off in the direction of her home, an Astartes in tow.

Author's Note

Yea, new story, you get the gist. I'll have more chapters describing his armor, weapons, name and chapter, but I really just wanted to get this done.

See ya next time!
Bah-Bye!

Orphanage

The duo walked through the brush, Derpy's small body weaving in and out of the offending foliage, while the Astartes simply crushed them underfoot.
'He sure is strange. Heck, I don't even know his name.'

Derpy looked back to the giant, his massive frame overshadowing her, she looked at his armor, the beautiful white paint crossed with shades of an olive green. Over what she assumed to be his head, was a pearl white hood, trimmed with black and gold. On his shoulders rested a enormous set of Pauldrons, making his head seem small in comparison. Along the side of his hip, was what looked like a huge metal sword, the blade replaced with vicious looking teeth. Next to it was a smaller blade sheathed in a dull green sheath. On the side of his leg was a strange metal box, with metal ribs extending over a glowing blue part. She noticed a sort of skull flanked with wings on his pauldrons and a doubleheaded eagle just below his head.

"So, what's your name?"

The giant barely even spared her a glance, instead his head was twisting to and fro, as if he were looking for something.

"I am Tyrelius, of the Death Wing Chapter."

Derpy hummed at this new found discovery, her new protector and parent's name was Tyrelius, Such a strange name.

The two marched through the forest, the trees giving way and becoming more sparse, soon, a field came into view, and the starry sky shedded the canopy and shone its brilliance upon them. They kept marching through the tall grass of the field, Derpy giggling every now and then as the grass tickled her. She kept giggling even as she felt a massive hand reach down and pick her up, and place her on Tyrelius's shoulder. She 'awe'd and oohed' at the height of which she now found herself.

"Wow, Tyrelius! Is this always what it's like for you?"

"Yes, small one, now, where do I take you?"

Derpy thought for a moment, before finally deciding.

"We'll go to my old house, I'll sstay there and then I'll come see you after school tomorrow!"

"Very well then child, Let us go."

The next few hours passed by silently, the duo passed by a sign that read 'Ponyville! Best place around!'

Luckily it was nighttime, and Tyrelius was unseen by any of the denizens, as they were asleep.
After Derpy gave Tyrelius some directions, the pair came to an old rundown house, the floor barely able to stay standing because it was so rotted, Derpy gave Tyrelius a hug and hopped down off of her perch, went inside and closed the door, leaving the Astartes to return back to his Thunderhawk.

Author's Note

Short chapter I know, but I have Strep throat right now and I just really didn't too good. So anyways,
Thanks for reading and stay well!

School

Derpy shifted in her desk, before letting out a sigh of frustration. She tapped the beige wood of the desktop before leveling her eyes back at the chalkboard.
She listened as Miss.Grade A, a dark blue pony with yellow hair, and a cutie mark of an A plus on her flank. Explained multiplication to the class.
Derpy let out another sigh as she decided to take a nap.

"DERPY!"

Derpy screamed as she woke up, the harsh voice of her teacher making her worst fears come true. She felt a sting of pain as a ruler was smacked across the back of her skull, making her yelp in pain. She slowly opened her eyes to see Miss. A Plus's eyes burning with the fury of tartarus.

"Derpy, see me after school."

Derpy shrank back in her desk, tears welling up in her eyes. "B-B-But, I was going to see Tyrelius after school...."

Miss. A Plus stopped her short walk to her desk, and turned ever so slowly. Her face scrunched up in a scowl.

"Who? Are you lying to me?"

"No ma'am! Tyrelius takes care of me now."

"Well then, it seems I need to have a talk with this Tyrelius then."

A plus stood trembling before the giant before her, his frame overshadowing hers by far. She looked up to the hood pulled up over his face.
She gulped as she saw only darkness. He motioned to me, where I was sitting on a crate, looking like I was about to cry.

"What seems to be the problem young one?"

I motioned to the teacher, her foreleg pointing in an accusing manner.

"She caught me sleeping in class, and hit me in the head with a ruler."

"I-I did not! This filly is lying! She threatened to kill me! S-So, I defended myself!"

Tyrelius facepalmed, the massive gauntleted hand colliding with his face in a loud smack. He sighed and brought his hand down to his chainsword, resting it on his hilt.

"Derpy, can you remember the lesson?"

"It was multiplication..."

"Alright, from now on, your being taught by me. Now for Miss. A plus here."

In a blur of movement, he brought out the weird sword and the weapon roared at Miss A Plus.

"GET OUT OF MY THUNDERHAWK!"

"Derpy
