No Good Deed Goes Unpunished

Chapter four: A good friend and a place to lie my head

By: Phantom Mask

(Nick POV)

Okay, let’s think about where to live. The mountains, nah saw some dragons up there and even if dragons falling out of the sky with blade wounds are normal I’m not taking any chances. Those tunnels over there, nah who knows what could be in there. The forest, yeah that a good idea, predators do often fight each other over food, as to make the other food “So I guess I head to the forest.” I thought as I walked towards the forest when all of a sudden a message appeared of the sky.

So that’s what the knights name was, then another message appeared. Gilgamesh, okay, anyone else; hey isn’t Dullhan a headless with darkness in that game? Invention, sounds like a nice guy. Hey, aren’t those guys who got piled on by the wall of ham right? How are they still alive, oh right dimensional transportation. Xante, isn’t that one the ancient lichens?

Maybe I should as well, meh, couldn’t hurt. If anything it could help. I charged my magic and sent it into the other messages. The message said “For those stand in the way of evil may call upon me to aid them in the battle. I am Nichole the Honorable. Walk swiftly my friends and carry a big gun.” After I knew the message was crystal clear to all other on lookers, I laughed so hard that I was on the verge of crying.

After I had recovered from me almost pissing myself, I continued on towards to forest when I saw something start glowing out of the corner of my eye. Blade drawn ready to fight those ponies again, instead of a pony was a guy with huge wings and in battle gear “Hello fellow warrior, how may be of service.” I said as polite and friendly as could “I need you to protect this land from the incoming evil.” The angel of war said in a voice that if I were a lesser man I’d probably faint. “an evil being is going to attack equestria and we need you to protect it” He continued “if you accept then you’ll be granted the power to summon warriors to aid you in your battles.” I thought about; there is nothing bad could come from this right? “What about the others, will they get the same or is it just me.” I asked “The threat is only in this dimension, so the others have no need yet,” He said “But if you are unable to contain the problem, the other will be notified of the problem, plus you can summon one to two of them with this stone.” The angel handed you a pure white stone “with this stone you can summon other humans to aid you in battle, now I must go the ponies saw where the message came from well be here shortly, please protect these ponies Nichole, they can hardly protect themselves.” The angle said solemnly “Don’t worry, I didn’t save them just to watch them be destroyed by something similar,” I said “Well, I guess it’s time to disembark, see you into the near future.” I finished as I ran off towards the forest, leaving the angel behind with a warm smile.

As soon as stopped running I felt n immense amount of power enter me, and become a part of me. Knowing what I had accepted I prepared for war.

(Twilight Sparkles POV)

She and her friends were running towards the location the beam of light came, while accompanied buy four hundred thirty-seven royal guards, the other princesses,and her brother Shining Armor. Even with all the 'back-up' as they call it, she still felt scared of that thing; it had cut the Rainbow of Harmony in two with little effort, not even Discord could do that. Discord was absolutely petrified of the thing and for some reason won't tell us anything about the creature.

"Come on, Discord." Rainbow said irritated "We all know you know something about this guy, so tell us is there away to beat him." Discord gulped audibly "I'm afraid not, my prismatic friend." I looked at him as if he was crazy... well crazier "What do you mean by that Dissy, even you have a weakness besides the elements of harmony." Pinkie said while standing on the chandelier above us "Pinkie how did you get up there, and she is right Discord." I said in a soothing tone towards Discord "Not this guy, it turned itself to stone after the battle against my former master." Discord said shakily "And who was that Discord, darling, and what do you mean by 'turned himself to stone' are you really telling us that it used the elements on itself." Rarity said with a slightly concerned tone in her voice "Yeah, what does this guy have against us, other than the ability to cut the rainbow in two." Rainbow said cockily "I bet that if we faced him a few hundred guards and Shining Armor, he wouldn't stand a chance." Discord however appeared in front of her with terrorized expression on his face "NO, you mustn't, you and all those guards would be slaughtered in seconds!!" everyone in the room was looking at him in shock "Discord, pray tell, how do you know that would happen." Luna said cautiously toward Discord "Because on the day my master died by the hand of that thing, I could only watch the destruction it had cause and how warriors of a much higher strength and power be tossed through the sky if they weren't cut into pieces."
