The Metaby muffinatorChaptersPart one: Canterlot creature: OneTwothreePart two: Manehattan monster: OnetwoThreeFourPlease readPart one: Canterlot creature: OneChapter on "Quick Doc shoot him with you'r scanner thingy! We can't let him get to the teleporter or he could be any where!", Griff shouted at the purple medic. Doc, who was charging the scanner, looked at Griff. "Shut up. As soon as I hit him with the scan, you need to move the teleporter." He looked at the scanner and thought almost charged, as he aimed at the Meta. The Meta was charging at the teleporter when suddenly, *vizzzit, he was hit by an electrical charge. Although, he was not the only thing that was hit. The teleporter was also hit. Grif was rushing over to try to move the teleport. It was to late. The Meta was inches away. A large sucking force (bow chick a bow wow!) [What? Tucker what are you doing here? You're not even in tis story.] (I know when I'm needed.) [We'll talk about this later.] came over him as he was pulled into it. The teleport was different than usual. The lights inside of the teleporter were dark pink, instead of white. The forces inside seemed to pull him in all directions at once, opposed to the normal forward yank. Then something happened to the Meta that hadn't happened for the longest time. He blacked out. (After the royal wedding) "Thank you and the others for helping set up the wedding, Twily.", Shining Armor said. "Also for protecting me and Cadence from Chrysalis and I'm sorry for not listening." "It's alright, I -", She was cut off as a bright light flared to life in front of Twilight, Shining Armor and Cadence. When it faded there was a crater. Inside the crater there was a white creature with no visible face, just a smooth yellow surface. Shining took up a defensive stance. "Do you think it could be another attempt from the changlings.?" Meta slowly came to listening to someone talking. "- empt from the changlings?" He slowly opened his eyes under his helmet, revealing something that didn't seem real. Three 'people' that weren't people. They each had a horn and one also had wings. These 'people' had muzzles and fur. One, the smallest in the group, was purple all across the board (so to speak) hair and everything. The next biggest had white fur and blue hair. The last was pink with three different colors in her hair, she was also the tallest. Meta stood up slowly. The white one drew a sword it had attached to his side. "State your name and intention." "No.", he growled even though he new they couldn't understand him. He lost his vocal cords when he was shot in the throat. He turned to walk away, when "Hey! I'm not done talking to you!" Meta proceeded to walk into a strange pink barrier. Meta took a few steps back and examined the barrier. He reeled back and punched, effectively shattering it. "How did it... In just one... " Shining just stared, eye twitching. "Twilight, I think you should get the girls, the elements and the princess.", Cadence said. "Shining, slow it down, if you would be so kind." Twilight disappeared in in a flash. Shining Armor set up another shield. Which Meta promptly broke through. This kept up for a few minutes, when a bright flash brought Celestia, the other five of the mane six and the elements forth. "Creature, STOP!", Celestia called out. The Meta seemed to listen as he stopped and turned around. "Grrr gr grr grrr?", he just growled. "What did it say Fluttershy?", Rainbow Dash asked. "I, umm think it said. 'What do you want?'" [A.I. fragment Sigma activated.] All talk between the new ponies stopped as a burning figure appeared on Meta's Shoulder. "Maine-" the figure paused for a second "-pardon Meta. The other fragments are gone, it's just me." "What are they? They don't look human. The blue haired one tried to 'contain' me. Their shield tech is pretty weak." "Princess they seem to be communicating.", Twilight said. "Maybe we should introduce ourselves to it slash them." Celestia nodded in agreement. "Hello there, my name is Twilight Sparkle.", She said as she walked up to Meta a and Sigma. They just watched her and the others. "That is Rarity." She pointed to a white furred woman. She had a white dress on and a horn. "That's Applejack." She pointed to an orange woman that had on jeans an orange shirt and a stetson hat. "Next is Rainbow Dash." This woman had on a blue t-shirt, white cargo shorts and had wings. "This is Pinkie Pie." This one had on a pink and blue striped shirt and a too-too. "Last but not least is Fluttershy." She had on a yellow t-shirt, a pink skirt and wings. "I am Princess Celestia", Said the one with the long, flowing, white dress. She had a horn and wings. "I am Princess Cadence. I believe you have met my new husband, capt- . . . er prince Shining Armor" She gestured to a mane who was wearing a red suite. Cadence had on a pink dress. "What are you?", Sigma asked. "We're ponies.", Celestia answered. "Where are we?" "Canterlot, Euqestria" "Thank you, let's go Meta." They turned to leave. "STOP RIGHT THERE CREATURE!", a new voice called out. It was the royal guard. They were only really late. Like seriously who trains these guys, they can't seem to be there on time. Like ever. TwoCHAPTER TWO Sigma and Meta turned around. "Stand down guards ." "With all due respect princess, no. Not after what we just went through.", the lead guard said. "Princess, let's just see how it reacts to this.", Shining armor said. They turned to see what would happen. "There are twenty people. Five on each side, primitive weapons. Should be a two minutes or so. Well, sic-em.", Sigma said. Meta slammed is fist into his palm and tilted his head to the right then the left, each ;sounded with a sharp crack sound. "Get some." The guards bum rushed him, hoping to overwhelm him in their numbers. 0:20 The first guard to get to him was screwed immediately. He thrust his spear in an attempt to run the Meta through. The spear was wrenched from his grasp, then the shaft was smashed into his face and he collapsed unconscious. 1:19 Two more tried to get at the Meta. He grabbed their heads and slammed them together with a *crack*. The two guards slumped to the ground most certainly with a concussion. The next guard received a right jab then a left jab the the chest. He was sent sprawling by a upper- cut to the jaw. 4:16 A guard punched at his face. Meta grabbed his arm and punched him in the stomach. Keeping a firm grip on the guard's arm he placed his palm onto the gourds stomach and flipped him at his buddies. it had a domino effect on three of the guards. The flying guy landed on his friend. The friends head smashed into the .....errr, squishy bits of the guy behind him. This caused the guard behind him to trip and smash his head into the ground knocking him out. 8:12 Meta missile kicked another guard with enough force to embed him into the wall he hit. 9:11 Meta back handed the two guards trying to sneak up on him. 11:9 He round house kicked a guard in the side. This broke at least two of the guys ribs. Thus another on hath bit the crust. 12:8 Meta grabbed a guard over his head and started spinning him. "Round and round he goes, where he stops nobody knows.", Meta sang before chucking the guard. The thrown guard slammed into the four guards trying to catch him. 17:3 He punched one in the gut, delivered an uppercut to another then to finish it all off he ran up tho the last guard standing delivering the one, the only, the "ULTIMATE NUT- SHOT!!!" 20:0 "Time!" "Three minutes and forty five seconds." Sigma holographicly displayed the time outside Meta's HUD. The ponies just stood there jaws agape. "Three minutes and forty five seconds! He did all that that fast? Those were twenty off Canterlots finest. No, some of Euqestrias finest.", Shining Armor exclaimed, outraged. "Excuse me, just who and what are you?", Twilight timidly asked. She and likely all the others were afraid of angering the metal behemoth. Sigma turned to look at the mane six the two princesses and the newly crowned prince. "I am Sigma, a mere fragment of an AI. This is one of the strongest of the warriors known as Freelancers. This is-" "The Meta." threechapter three "Pfft, he doesn't look that tough. I bet Equestria's fastest flyer can take him on, no sweat.", Rainbow Dash said zipping in a small, tight circle. "Ah don' know sugar cube. He mopped the floor with them there guards.", Applejack said. "Yea just look what he did unarmed, and I hate to say it [it] but it looks like that thing on it's back is a bladed weapon of some sort.", Twilight added to Applejack's previous comment. "My little ponies, calm down. Let's just see if it is a threat." Princess Celestia turned to address the Meta "Do you plan on hurting anypony?" "Probably.", Sigma replied. "Why?" "Cause it's what we do as a Freelancer and his AI fragment." "Don't know what your talking about, I do it cause it's fun." "Yes, but that doesn't answer why you do it." "Well because people pay us to." *sigh* "I'm afraid we will have to turn you to stone, then." "let's go Meta", Meta and Sigma turned to leave. The mane six stood in an arrow formation. Their necklaces began to glow and they started to float the air. A giant rainbow rose from the glowing necklaces. The rainbow was oddly in the shape of a leaf of weed. The meta looked at the rainbow. *sigh* he took two steps to the left and the rainbow slammed into the ground next to him. He looked at the ground and it was turned to stone. "HAH HAH HAH, you missed me." All the ponies had stunned looks on their faces. The freelancer and fragment started to laugh at their faces. Nothing better than shock in the morning. Alright let's go. They turned to leave (again). They got fifteen feet before a force slammed him off his feet. The meta slowly stood and turned. There was a look of rage on his face so strong it went through his helmet and froze the offender in place. Sed offender was one Rainbow Dash. The meta took long slow steps towards her and raised his fist. "HEY!", Fluttershy yelled. He turned to look at the mare. She was glaring at him. "you want a stare? Here you go.". He gave her his own immobilizing stare. She tried to fight back but his stare was much stronger than hers. She looked away with a whimper. "Thought as much." He turned his attention to all the ponies. he gave them all a look then pulled his brute shot and fired a warning shot at their feet. "I suggest you leave us alone.", Sigma warned. "I can not and will not allow you- you- you fiends to even look my little ponies wrong.", Celestia said, her voice filled with barley controlled rage. "Screw you. We do what we wish!!" " He said: Screw you we do what we wish!!", Sigma repeated to the ponies. "Well I just can't allow that." "Repeat message." Sigma repeated the what The Meta said, including the added bit, to the ponies. "Try again when your ready for a real fight. Not some pansy one shot attack you expect me to sit still for. Sigma, are we almost out of this accursed maze.'' "I think so. You should turn to ... the right, charge forward and just keep smashing through the hedges. then we can leave these freaking ponies." The meta nodded turned ninety degrees to the right and sprinted off through the hedges. "Ah'm so mad at that son of an arrow but yah gotta won'er, why didn't we do that wi'tha fight against discord? Just smash straight through the maze.", Applejack questioned. "No idea darling but I think Fluttershy needs our attention right now.", Rarity said looking at the yellow mare. Fluttershy was cowering behind Princess Celestia, a look of pure terror on her face. The mane six crowded around Fluttershy. Twilight was the first to break the silence that had fallen over the group. "What did it feel like Fluttershy?" [bow chick- a bow wow] "I-i-it was t-the m-m-most terrifying thing I've ever had t-to feel. It makes me wonder ... ... ...Is that what my stare does to others?", Fluttershy said in a small voice. She was no longer crying but she was still shaking like a leaf. "That thing needs to be stopped. It's impony the way it acts.", Twilight said incredibly angry, yet oddly calm. "Ah agree but how? It could prob'ly 'ave beaten Chrysalis when she was hopped up on Shinings love juice[Bow Chick-ah Bow wow].", Applejack said. "What do we do princess Celestia? How do we stop it?", Fluttershy uttered "Before it left it said 'Try again when your ready for a real fight. Not some pansy one shot attack you expect me to stand still for.'" "Wait, wait, wait, wait!", Rainbow Dash cut in "You can understand that thing? Wow!" "Yes it sounds like what the growls of my manticore friend make. Princess, if its okay with you, can you answer my question, please." "Of course Fluttershy. Only-", she paused "- I don't know how we can stop it. We can only follow him and hope then pray." Part two: Manehattan monster: OneTheme song begin in... Three... Two... One... Youtube Video *Sped up time. Walking walking walking trip stand keep walking walking walking sing a song while walking Time elapsed Day 2 hour 4 minute38 Location Manehattan "What is our first course of action?", The Meta asked Sigma. "Well do you just want to terrorize them or do you want a source of income." "I think we should find a hide out before we do any of this. Unless you wanna be found by the idiot ponies", He said observing the city from a hill. "Where could we hide so we wont be found?", sigma muttered more to himself than Meta. "Eh eff it let's be a mercenary. To the closest message board!" Then the Meta began walking towards the city again. Sigma appeared on The Meta's shoulder and looked around. "Wow this place is crap. Do you think they even have sewers here?" The Meta just shrugged and walked on. The street was filled with shady characters, pickpockets, business men and women (mares and stallions? ) and murderers. The usual "big city" occupants.I should probably ask for so me directions to a message board or something. being a mercenary was ... is fun Meta thought. The meta walked up to a red stallion with a blue and green mane. "Excuse us sir?", Sigma asked the stallion who turned to look at them. His eyes widened in fear and wonder at the six and a half foot tall beast and burning figure standing on its shoulder. "Could you possibly tell us where we can find a message board or place to find bounties and mercenary job offers?" "Umm, yes sir. Our name is Fire Storm, we run a tavern a few blocks away. We have a hiring board there thou can acquire usage to receive job offers. Follow us tis but a five minute or so walk from here." Fire Storm looked them up and down for a moment before turning to take them to his bar. "We wish to acquire thine name white titan, may we ask thyself of it?" "His name is Meta, The Meta, or agent M-." "I am no longer agent Main.", Meta cut in before Sigma could finish. "Pardon that last one. That is no longer his name. By the way where did you learn to speak, if you don't mind my asking.", Sigma questioned. "Not at all. We grew up homeless and learned to speak at a theater that only played Shakesponyan plays. We also learned to read through their old scripts", Fire Storm replied nonchalantly. After another minute of silence Storm asked another question. "Two questions of thou, if thou doth mind. Thou hath never told us of thine name strange burning being." e "I am Sigma and I am a fragment." "Aaahhh yes that answer thine second question." "So what is the name of your fine establishment.", Sigma asked Fire Storm. "Tis called Freddie Frazabeer's. Thy tavern is not as well know as some of the other taverns in town but we still make a fine brew. We're here thy friends.", He exclaimed as they stopped in front of homely little bar. They walked in and Meta looked around. "The message board is over to thine's right. When thy finds a job come find thee. I shath be tending to the bar.", Storm said with a smile. The Meta just nodded and walked towards the board. It had jobs ranging from bounty-dead to escort. Meta randomly chose a a bounty job. WANTED: DEAD Burning Legion (gang leader) Wanted for: -theft -murder -attempted murder -armed robbery Burning Legion is wanted for the theft of hundreds of bits. Armed robbery of the Manehattan national bank. The murder of three people. Attempted murder of two others. DESCRIPTION: -sickly green fur -black and orange mane -irises white rimed with red -scar along his chin LOCATION: Located at runners watch. Likely in the middle of the underground complex surrounded by gang. Gang wears red warpaint around their eyes, a black bandanna around around their left foreleg. 600 bit reward dead 700 bit reward alive "Dead or alive" The meta asked sigma as he pulled the page off the board. "Hmmmm I am going to say alive because its more ... bits, for us but he'll be easier to handle dead. Quite the predicament. Lets take him alive but if he's to unruly we can take him in dead. Alright lets take this up to Fire Storm. They turned and walked up to the bar. Meta knocked on the bar twice gaining the attention of Fire. He looked up from the conversation he was having with a sort of bipedal dog and gave them the one second gesture. He handed the dog a beer and took two small, golden, coins and put them into a pocket of the apron he was wearing and walked over. "What can thy do for thou? Doth thou find a quest?" Meta slid the paper over the counter for him to look at. His eyes widened in shock as he read over the paper. They suddenly narrowed in anger. "Thy am glad thou took this quest. Thine first memory was of a guild member killing thine parents. They were part of this guild. I'll contact the quest giver and inform him that thou took the quest." "I have a few questions if it's alright with you. What's a bit, and who was that you were talking to?", Sigma asked Fire. Appearing on Meta's shoulder. He pulled out one of the small coins and showed the two. It was bronze with half a sun on one side and half a moon on the other. "This is a half bit. You can tell by it being bronze, a quarter bit is gold and has quarter of a sun and moon on it, a full bit is silver and has a full sun and moon on it. "As for the diamond dog she's the reason thy get so much hate. Ponies even tried to arrest thy for. That is thine wife." "Alright thank you." Meta turned and walked twords the door after gabbing the paper. "We'll be back in two or three days." Quest started: Gangs all here. twoAlright Meta think, Storm said that the bandits were at runners watch. The Meta was at the center of town and the ruins were northeast of his current position. Nodding to himself, he headed northeast. So how do you think this is going to go down? Actual gang or milk drinking wanna-be's. Sigma inquired. "I Don't know nor do i care. I'm just in it for the violence. You know What they say 'violence is always the answer!'" "Stop right there monster", a voice cried out at The Meta. Turning they saw what looked like one of the guards from that castle. Looking him up and down The Meta saw he was wearing bronze armor instead of gold. "You are under arrest by the manehattan branch of the town guard remove your weapons and come quietly and you will not be harmed!" "Under what charges", Sigma asked appearing in front of the guard. The guard stumbled back in surprise and tried to slash Sigma in two with a short sword. "I will repeat myself, under what charges?" "A-a-assault of 20 royal guards, resisting arrest and attempted murder of the elements of harmony", the guard started nervously but grew in confidence. "So I will repeat myself, you are under arrest'', He said with as much authority as he could muster. "So I expect the twenty, what was it, royal guards were court marshaled and the ..." "Elements of harmony." "Ahh yes, Elements of Harmony were arrested." "Tell me why that would be monster." he spat the last word out like a eight year old spits out broccoli. "They tried to arrest us with no charges, the guards attacked us and the same goes for the elements." "He said the resisted arrest could not have happened because there were no charges and they didn't read us our rights, thus there was no arrest in the first place. In both cases with the royal guard and the Elements they attacked us without provocation giving us the right to self defense. Anything else?" The guard just sat there flabbergasted. Before shaking his head. He started to turn to walk away when Meta grabbed his shoulder and pulled him around. "Hey up do you know where runners watch is?" Sigma asked. If the guards jaw dropped any lower it would hit oil. "Y-y-y-y your taking on R-r- runners watch", the guard stuttered in amazement "nopony has ever been able to even get close!" "Then it's a good thing we ain't ponies", The Meta turned and walked in the direction of runners watch. The crowds made way for the giant 6 foot 3 stature. Twilight was sitting alone in the back of the royal library. She was doing the [less than ] amazing, she was READING! There were piles of books all around her, some reaching 30 high. The more surprising fact was that Celestia was right there next to her. "Princess, what are we looking for", Twilight asked. Celestia looked up from the book she was currently reading ''well . . . What the Meta said got me thinking, what if we are going to have to physically fight him to get him in stone? Then there's the fact that this is who he is. With Discord, he wasn't always the embodiment of chaos but when he embodied it the elements couldn't separate it from him so,rather than killing him, they froze him in stone. With this being . . .", Celestia berried her head in her hands with a sigh. "I just don't know." "What do you mean 'you don't know'", Twilight inquired. She put the book down and turned to her mentor. "I mean the elements might not effect him. We need and artifact or weapon or something. I think you know by now that this monster isn't a pony. Meaning how he's acting could just be part of his nature and the elements can't actually change a beings nature.." "So what does this mean about Nightmare Moon and Luna?" Twilight's thoughts were racing faster than a race between Rainbow Dash and Sonic.If that's true then Nightmare is still probably out there. How could we stop her? Why am I thinking about this, I've bigger pieces of grass to fry. "She wasn't real in the first place. She was always just part of Luna's mind. She got angry and jealous so her mind became unstable, the elements just stabilized her mind. Now can we get to the task at hand, please?'' "Yeah, sure." They turned back to the books. Around them, the piles of books only grew. They went on like this for several hours. Celestia only got explosive crossbow bolts. Twilight got a rain of exploding cheese . "Were did you find that Twilight? The exploding cheese book." "Over there in the daderic spells section. This daderic lord, Shoegorath, looks like he could give discord a run for his bits. So as it turns out that if we could get some daderic weapons and armor we could take him on no problem but you need a dadera's heart to make it and something called ebony." Twilight explained enthusiastically. Celestia walked over to the section that Twilight pointed to and started browsing. There were several books about magical weapons but none of them were readily use able. Suddenly a book drew Celestia's attention. Grasping it in her magic she looked at the title. Weapons of the Dragon-spire, relics of the old world Written by Muffinator The Adventurous Celestia new Muffinator, he was Ditzy Doo's great great great grand father of her mother's side. Good stallion. Huh I didn't know he wrote anything on his adventures. Celestia thought opening the book. She walked over to the table and sat down. The First page was a letter. Greetings, My name is Muffinator Doo. I am the best adventurer at this point in time. This book is by no means fictional and all in formation in this book is as accurate as I can make it. So allow me to explain the meaning of this book. I stumbled across stories of old world weapons and armor. I will state this now, Celestia if you or Luna is reading this then know that I'm sorry. Why, you ask. Well it will be abundantly clear in the end. Now, these weapons and armor are only usable by an individual element of harmony, meaning that the princesses can not use them. The last and final thing I have to say is, to be able to access these relics you MUST HAVE experienced blood shed and death at your own hands. I'm sorry but that's how it is. The ever adventurous, Muffinator ThreeThis page WILL contain gore AND violence. "Meta the facility is coming into view." The Meta looked up from his feet and saw a two- story, stone wall. There were six men standing at the gate, which was a giant oak set of double doors. On the back wall was a three story tall tower with four archers at the top, there were also guards walking the the wall. "Sigma, zoom in on one of the guards." The chosen guard matched the description of a gang member. "Red paint rimming the eyes, black bandanna around left arm. Yep, this is the place." He pulled his weapon off his back (the UR-5O F0K3D, with added blades of badassosity. A.K.A. Kni-fle [That's a mix of knife and rifle. Yep came up with it myself.]) and fired three shots at the gate guards. One of the explosive rounds slammed into the gate blowing it off it's hinges the other two detonated at the foot of the gate guards blowing them to oblivion and back, then to oblivion again. He sprinted into the fort and tackled a gang member to the ground and rammed the front blade into his abdomen, splattering his chest with blood. Standing up the Meta detached the front blade and placed the Kni-fle on his back. A gang member took a downward stroke at him with a claymore, it was side stepped with ease. Meta grabbed the blade and pulled him over ramming his fist into the stallion's face, breaking the stallion's everything. "Behind you, left side, going for a diagonal slash. Mark." Meta ducked and spun around kicking the mare's legs out from under her. "Set." Meta grabbed her tail and pulled her over to him and he slashed her throat then stood up. A unicorn shot a blast of sizzling magic at him. Meta ran at it head on and jumped over it landing in a dive roll and sprang to his feet. He kicked the unicorn in the stomach, she doubled over in pain and Meta stabbed her in the back off the neck severing her vertebra. A pegasus knocked him down with a,literal, flying tackle. Meta kicked the pegsus off him and stood up, she tried to get to her hooves but Meta kicked her in the chest shattering her ribs. "*Ack cough cough*-" she spit a mouthful of blood at Meta's foot "- We *cough cough* are only the grunts and c-cannon foder," and the mare died. "Good, I'd be disappointed if you were anything more." The Meta was reused from his thoughts by the thudding of hooves. Ponies rushed from the building and archers crowded the top of the walls, earth ponies stood at the bottom of the walls boxing him in. The door at the bottom of the tower creaked open and stood the target himself, Burning Legion. Slowly, veeeeeerrrryyyyy slowly. "Sooooo, they couldn't get to me so they sent a freak in armor. Hmm hmm hmm, how quaint. Well-", he drew a sword off his back "- I suppose you're screwed. You might as well just lie down and . . . DIE." Burning launched himself at Meta. He thrust his sword at Meta. Meta spun out of the way and grabbed the back of Burning's shirt and slammed him to the ground. Meta walked over to the unicorn he killed in the skirmish with the grunts and pulled it out of her neck and re- attached it to his Kni-fle. "Bad move turning your back to an opponent who's still breathing." Meta turned around and observed how the gang leader was approaching him. "This is different he's moving with caution. I guess he's figured out that we're dangerous", Sigma said. Sigma appeared on Meta's shoulder, surprising the gang, to address Burning legion. "Heh heh heh heh, no I believe it is you that needs to lie down and die." With that statement Sigma disappeared and Meta went on the offensive. Meta shot at Burning with the strength of a cannon and punched him in the gut, forcing blood and spittle out of his mouth. Then Meta grabbed him by his mane and slammed his muzzle into Meta's knee. *Crack* "Whelp, there goes his nose." Meta backed off so Burning could get to his feet. But his rest was interrupted when Meta gabbed the hand holding the sword . . . and crushed it to a pulp. "AAHHHRRRRGGGG" Burning dropped his sword and fell to his knees cradling the mess of bone and flesh that was, until recently, his hand. "Tsk tsk tsk tsk, now really I thought you you were going to be tough. Well I suppose I can just put up down." As the Meta approached him, Burning looked up at the Meta. His eyes were filled with tears of pain and fear. The meta looked down at him ,*sigh*, "pathetic". Meta kicked him in the chest breaking his ribs. "w-w-who a-a-are y-you? A-a-are y-you a m-m-m-monster*cough cough* o-or a . . . demon?" For a moment Burning legion thought he heard words come from the senseless growls coming from the monster as it picked up his sword. "We are the Meta." *Swish shwink* FourFreddy Fazzbeer's Fire Storm was tending the bar when a brown Pegasus stallion with a gray mane walked in. He was wearing chain mail armor and a faded brown ( facing the screen, the one on the left ) duster over it, he also had a one handed long- sword on his back and kite shield strapped to his arm. He walked up to the bar and sat pulled up a stool to sit on. "Bar tender! some service please", he called out in a deep gravely voice. Fire put the glass he was polishing down and walked over. " What can we retrieve thou?" The stallion looked down in thought for a second. "I'll take a whisky on the rocks." "Any preferences?" "Diablo's espada de fuego, if you have it." Fire Storm turned around to fetch the drink with a nod. "Before I forget, I'm Quick Draw, the sheriff of the town guard. You called about the bounty for Burning Legion. Did somepony finally bring him down and/ or in?" Fire handed the Pegasus his drink "Five bits and he hasn't returned just yet. Also we are uncertain as to whether he is a pony or not" The sheriff looked at Fire Storm confused. Fire picked up on this look and explained. "He is six foot six inches and wears white armor and his helmet is mainly yellow, oh what is the word.... ah yes, polarized glass. At least we think that tis the word. Pardon, our mind was drifting. The armor is an odd sort." "Odd, how so?" he inquired. The bar tender paused to gather his thoughts. "Oh how do we put this. The armor, tis not made for a pony, nor was it made by any species we know of. The armor is, for lack of correct terms, too perfect." Fire sighed and rubbed the back of his head. The armor shows no sign of being forged and hammered. Sure there are dents and scratches in the armor but thou can tell they are from battles past. A second reason being, there are no naturally white metals known to any races. The only painted part of the armor are yellow accents here and there." "Well that is certainly odd but how would you know such things?" Asked Quick Draw before he finished his drink. Fire was about to answer when the door to the bar slammed into the wall. The person who kicked it open slowly lowered their foot. Everyone in the bar looked at the figure in the doorway. *Thump - thump - thump - thump - thump* Quick Draw was trying to see who it was but the sun was directly behind the figure leaving not but a figure shrouded in darkness walking toward the two at the bar. A flaming being burst into assistance on the figures shoulder. " We're back Fire. Has the bounty come in yet?" "Ah yes, Sheriff Quick Draw here twas merely awaiting thine return." Quick draw stood and reached out his hand for a shake. Instead he got a moist red sack [Giggid- oh wait that's not mine. Bow chick-ah bow wow. that's better.] that was dripping a beep maroon color. Quick looked back and forth between the bag and the figure he now knew to be the one that Fire Storm was describing. "Uh. . . What do I do with this?" He asked, his gaze finally settling on the Meta. "GrrGRRrr." Meta rubbed his pointer and middle finger against his thumb then held out his hand. Quick stared at the hand for a second before realizing what the gesture meant. His pupils dilated and he looked at the bag still in his hand, he slowly opened it revealing the head of Burning Legion; eyes glazed over and staring, lifelessly. Quick dropped the bag and fell to his hands and knees. He raised a hand to his mouth and retched. Never in all his years had anypony brought him a severed head as proof of a completed job. At most it was only ever a photograph or the actual convict, if wanted alive. The bar tender put a bucket by Quick's head and Quick couldn't fight the urge anymore he leaned over the bucket and vomited. He slowly got to his hooves and looked at the Meta, who held out his hand again, and said "You're a monster, I hope you know that but damn it if I won't stay true to my word. Here's your money." he placed a sack in the Meta's hand [Don't do it.I'm tryingNo don't say i-BOW CHICK-AH BOW WOW. Oh gosh no, please you made that happen and I should be able to appear next chapter.]. "A monster he is, But efficient are his methods." said Sigma. "ggRRrrr grrRRGRRR." "Fine I'll drop the Yoda act." Canterlot Celestia and Twilight were about to continue their reading of Muffinators journal when a guard rushed into the library. "Princesses! The creature has appeared in Manehattan. He has taken care off the infamous crime- lord, Burning Legion." "What?!" Twilight called hopping to her hooves. "When was this?" The guard flinched at the volume of Twilight's voice. "A little over an hour ago the sheriff of the Manehattan town guard sent in the weekly crime report. The Town guard has attempted the re- taking of Runners Watch several times. So now Runners watch is open for us." The guard pulled a scroll from within his armor and handed it to Celestia. "This is his last known location and what he was doing." "Thank you guard, you are dismissed", Celestia said. He saluted and walked out of the room. Celestia opened the scroll an read it over. "Well. . . What does it say?" Twilight asked curiously. Celestia levitated the scroll to Twilight. location: Manehattan -Old Manehattan -Freddy Fazzbear (Tavern) Harbored by: Storm family -Fire storm (Unicorn) *Bartender -Gentle Rain (Diamond Doge) *Blacksmith -Snow Storm (Unicorn) *Daughter -Monsoon (Pegasus) *Son The being known as "The Meta" is being harbored by the Storm family. They live at number 4 Privet Drive (Above the tavern). It was last seen returning from "The Legion Job". Recommended course of action: Bring in the family and lure creatur into a trap [This is considering the family may or mayn't have befriended the creature. "Well Princess. We have to go back . . . . . . . . . . . . to Manehattan." Please readAlright trusty viewers I'm sorry but no real chapter but as the name implies I need help. I need to know, do y'all want more meta? Or do you want me to elaborate on the weapons in my book cause lets face it we all know what they'll be used for. So my book or Meta related mayhem. Sincerely, M Post script: the book at the end of chapter 5 i believe.
Part one: Canterlot creature: OneChapter on "Quick Doc shoot him with you'r scanner thingy! We can't let him get to the teleporter or he could be any where!", Griff shouted at the purple medic. Doc, who was charging the scanner, looked at Griff. "Shut up. As soon as I hit him with the scan, you need to move the teleporter." He looked at the scanner and thought almost charged, as he aimed at the Meta. The Meta was charging at the teleporter when suddenly, *vizzzit, he was hit by an electrical charge. Although, he was not the only thing that was hit. The teleporter was also hit. Grif was rushing over to try to move the teleport. It was to late. The Meta was inches away. A large sucking force (bow chick a bow wow!) [What? Tucker what are you doing here? You're not even in tis story.] (I know when I'm needed.) [We'll talk about this later.] came over him as he was pulled into it. The teleport was different than usual. The lights inside of the teleporter were dark pink, instead of white. The forces inside seemed to pull him in all directions at once, opposed to the normal forward yank. Then something happened to the Meta that hadn't happened for the longest time. He blacked out. (After the royal wedding) "Thank you and the others for helping set up the wedding, Twily.", Shining Armor said. "Also for protecting me and Cadence from Chrysalis and I'm sorry for not listening." "It's alright, I -", She was cut off as a bright light flared to life in front of Twilight, Shining Armor and Cadence. When it faded there was a crater. Inside the crater there was a white creature with no visible face, just a smooth yellow surface. Shining took up a defensive stance. "Do you think it could be another attempt from the changlings.?" Meta slowly came to listening to someone talking. "- empt from the changlings?" He slowly opened his eyes under his helmet, revealing something that didn't seem real. Three 'people' that weren't people. They each had a horn and one also had wings. These 'people' had muzzles and fur. One, the smallest in the group, was purple all across the board (so to speak) hair and everything. The next biggest had white fur and blue hair. The last was pink with three different colors in her hair, she was also the tallest. Meta stood up slowly. The white one drew a sword it had attached to his side. "State your name and intention." "No.", he growled even though he new they couldn't understand him. He lost his vocal cords when he was shot in the throat. He turned to walk away, when "Hey! I'm not done talking to you!" Meta proceeded to walk into a strange pink barrier. Meta took a few steps back and examined the barrier. He reeled back and punched, effectively shattering it. "How did it... In just one... " Shining just stared, eye twitching. "Twilight, I think you should get the girls, the elements and the princess.", Cadence said. "Shining, slow it down, if you would be so kind." Twilight disappeared in in a flash. Shining Armor set up another shield. Which Meta promptly broke through. This kept up for a few minutes, when a bright flash brought Celestia, the other five of the mane six and the elements forth. "Creature, STOP!", Celestia called out. The Meta seemed to listen as he stopped and turned around. "Grrr gr grr grrr?", he just growled. "What did it say Fluttershy?", Rainbow Dash asked. "I, umm think it said. 'What do you want?'" [A.I. fragment Sigma activated.] All talk between the new ponies stopped as a burning figure appeared on Meta's Shoulder. "Maine-" the figure paused for a second "-pardon Meta. The other fragments are gone, it's just me." "What are they? They don't look human. The blue haired one tried to 'contain' me. Their shield tech is pretty weak." "Princess they seem to be communicating.", Twilight said. "Maybe we should introduce ourselves to it slash them." Celestia nodded in agreement. "Hello there, my name is Twilight Sparkle.", She said as she walked up to Meta a and Sigma. They just watched her and the others. "That is Rarity." She pointed to a white furred woman. She had a white dress on and a horn. "That's Applejack." She pointed to an orange woman that had on jeans an orange shirt and a stetson hat. "Next is Rainbow Dash." This woman had on a blue t-shirt, white cargo shorts and had wings. "This is Pinkie Pie." This one had on a pink and blue striped shirt and a too-too. "Last but not least is Fluttershy." She had on a yellow t-shirt, a pink skirt and wings. "I am Princess Celestia", Said the one with the long, flowing, white dress. She had a horn and wings. "I am Princess Cadence. I believe you have met my new husband, capt- . . . er prince Shining Armor" She gestured to a mane who was wearing a red suite. Cadence had on a pink dress. "What are you?", Sigma asked. "We're ponies.", Celestia answered. "Where are we?" "Canterlot, Euqestria" "Thank you, let's go Meta." They turned to leave. "STOP RIGHT THERE CREATURE!", a new voice called out. It was the royal guard. They were only really late. Like seriously who trains these guys, they can't seem to be there on time. Like ever.
TwoCHAPTER TWO Sigma and Meta turned around. "Stand down guards ." "With all due respect princess, no. Not after what we just went through.", the lead guard said. "Princess, let's just see how it reacts to this.", Shining armor said. They turned to see what would happen. "There are twenty people. Five on each side, primitive weapons. Should be a two minutes or so. Well, sic-em.", Sigma said. Meta slammed is fist into his palm and tilted his head to the right then the left, each ;sounded with a sharp crack sound. "Get some." The guards bum rushed him, hoping to overwhelm him in their numbers. 0:20 The first guard to get to him was screwed immediately. He thrust his spear in an attempt to run the Meta through. The spear was wrenched from his grasp, then the shaft was smashed into his face and he collapsed unconscious. 1:19 Two more tried to get at the Meta. He grabbed their heads and slammed them together with a *crack*. The two guards slumped to the ground most certainly with a concussion. The next guard received a right jab then a left jab the the chest. He was sent sprawling by a upper- cut to the jaw. 4:16 A guard punched at his face. Meta grabbed his arm and punched him in the stomach. Keeping a firm grip on the guard's arm he placed his palm onto the gourds stomach and flipped him at his buddies. it had a domino effect on three of the guards. The flying guy landed on his friend. The friends head smashed into the .....errr, squishy bits of the guy behind him. This caused the guard behind him to trip and smash his head into the ground knocking him out. 8:12 Meta missile kicked another guard with enough force to embed him into the wall he hit. 9:11 Meta back handed the two guards trying to sneak up on him. 11:9 He round house kicked a guard in the side. This broke at least two of the guys ribs. Thus another on hath bit the crust. 12:8 Meta grabbed a guard over his head and started spinning him. "Round and round he goes, where he stops nobody knows.", Meta sang before chucking the guard. The thrown guard slammed into the four guards trying to catch him. 17:3 He punched one in the gut, delivered an uppercut to another then to finish it all off he ran up tho the last guard standing delivering the one, the only, the "ULTIMATE NUT- SHOT!!!" 20:0 "Time!" "Three minutes and forty five seconds." Sigma holographicly displayed the time outside Meta's HUD. The ponies just stood there jaws agape. "Three minutes and forty five seconds! He did all that that fast? Those were twenty off Canterlots finest. No, some of Euqestrias finest.", Shining Armor exclaimed, outraged. "Excuse me, just who and what are you?", Twilight timidly asked. She and likely all the others were afraid of angering the metal behemoth. Sigma turned to look at the mane six the two princesses and the newly crowned prince. "I am Sigma, a mere fragment of an AI. This is one of the strongest of the warriors known as Freelancers. This is-" "The Meta."
threechapter three "Pfft, he doesn't look that tough. I bet Equestria's fastest flyer can take him on, no sweat.", Rainbow Dash said zipping in a small, tight circle. "Ah don' know sugar cube. He mopped the floor with them there guards.", Applejack said. "Yea just look what he did unarmed, and I hate to say it [it] but it looks like that thing on it's back is a bladed weapon of some sort.", Twilight added to Applejack's previous comment. "My little ponies, calm down. Let's just see if it is a threat." Princess Celestia turned to address the Meta "Do you plan on hurting anypony?" "Probably.", Sigma replied. "Why?" "Cause it's what we do as a Freelancer and his AI fragment." "Don't know what your talking about, I do it cause it's fun." "Yes, but that doesn't answer why you do it." "Well because people pay us to." *sigh* "I'm afraid we will have to turn you to stone, then." "let's go Meta", Meta and Sigma turned to leave. The mane six stood in an arrow formation. Their necklaces began to glow and they started to float the air. A giant rainbow rose from the glowing necklaces. The rainbow was oddly in the shape of a leaf of weed. The meta looked at the rainbow. *sigh* he took two steps to the left and the rainbow slammed into the ground next to him. He looked at the ground and it was turned to stone. "HAH HAH HAH, you missed me." All the ponies had stunned looks on their faces. The freelancer and fragment started to laugh at their faces. Nothing better than shock in the morning. Alright let's go. They turned to leave (again). They got fifteen feet before a force slammed him off his feet. The meta slowly stood and turned. There was a look of rage on his face so strong it went through his helmet and froze the offender in place. Sed offender was one Rainbow Dash. The meta took long slow steps towards her and raised his fist. "HEY!", Fluttershy yelled. He turned to look at the mare. She was glaring at him. "you want a stare? Here you go.". He gave her his own immobilizing stare. She tried to fight back but his stare was much stronger than hers. She looked away with a whimper. "Thought as much." He turned his attention to all the ponies. he gave them all a look then pulled his brute shot and fired a warning shot at their feet. "I suggest you leave us alone.", Sigma warned. "I can not and will not allow you- you- you fiends to even look my little ponies wrong.", Celestia said, her voice filled with barley controlled rage. "Screw you. We do what we wish!!" " He said: Screw you we do what we wish!!", Sigma repeated to the ponies. "Well I just can't allow that." "Repeat message." Sigma repeated the what The Meta said, including the added bit, to the ponies. "Try again when your ready for a real fight. Not some pansy one shot attack you expect me to sit still for. Sigma, are we almost out of this accursed maze.'' "I think so. You should turn to ... the right, charge forward and just keep smashing through the hedges. then we can leave these freaking ponies." The meta nodded turned ninety degrees to the right and sprinted off through the hedges. "Ah'm so mad at that son of an arrow but yah gotta won'er, why didn't we do that wi'tha fight against discord? Just smash straight through the maze.", Applejack questioned. "No idea darling but I think Fluttershy needs our attention right now.", Rarity said looking at the yellow mare. Fluttershy was cowering behind Princess Celestia, a look of pure terror on her face. The mane six crowded around Fluttershy. Twilight was the first to break the silence that had fallen over the group. "What did it feel like Fluttershy?" [bow chick- a bow wow] "I-i-it was t-the m-m-most terrifying thing I've ever had t-to feel. It makes me wonder ... ... ...Is that what my stare does to others?", Fluttershy said in a small voice. She was no longer crying but she was still shaking like a leaf. "That thing needs to be stopped. It's impony the way it acts.", Twilight said incredibly angry, yet oddly calm. "Ah agree but how? It could prob'ly 'ave beaten Chrysalis when she was hopped up on Shinings love juice[Bow Chick-ah Bow wow].", Applejack said. "What do we do princess Celestia? How do we stop it?", Fluttershy uttered "Before it left it said 'Try again when your ready for a real fight. Not some pansy one shot attack you expect me to stand still for.'" "Wait, wait, wait, wait!", Rainbow Dash cut in "You can understand that thing? Wow!" "Yes it sounds like what the growls of my manticore friend make. Princess, if its okay with you, can you answer my question, please." "Of course Fluttershy. Only-", she paused "- I don't know how we can stop it. We can only follow him and hope then pray."
Part two: Manehattan monster: OneTheme song begin in... Three... Two... One... Youtube Video *Sped up time. Walking walking walking trip stand keep walking walking walking sing a song while walking Time elapsed Day 2 hour 4 minute38 Location Manehattan "What is our first course of action?", The Meta asked Sigma. "Well do you just want to terrorize them or do you want a source of income." "I think we should find a hide out before we do any of this. Unless you wanna be found by the idiot ponies", He said observing the city from a hill. "Where could we hide so we wont be found?", sigma muttered more to himself than Meta. "Eh eff it let's be a mercenary. To the closest message board!" Then the Meta began walking towards the city again. Sigma appeared on The Meta's shoulder and looked around. "Wow this place is crap. Do you think they even have sewers here?" The Meta just shrugged and walked on. The street was filled with shady characters, pickpockets, business men and women (mares and stallions? ) and murderers. The usual "big city" occupants.I should probably ask for so me directions to a message board or something. being a mercenary was ... is fun Meta thought. The meta walked up to a red stallion with a blue and green mane. "Excuse us sir?", Sigma asked the stallion who turned to look at them. His eyes widened in fear and wonder at the six and a half foot tall beast and burning figure standing on its shoulder. "Could you possibly tell us where we can find a message board or place to find bounties and mercenary job offers?" "Umm, yes sir. Our name is Fire Storm, we run a tavern a few blocks away. We have a hiring board there thou can acquire usage to receive job offers. Follow us tis but a five minute or so walk from here." Fire Storm looked them up and down for a moment before turning to take them to his bar. "We wish to acquire thine name white titan, may we ask thyself of it?" "His name is Meta, The Meta, or agent M-." "I am no longer agent Main.", Meta cut in before Sigma could finish. "Pardon that last one. That is no longer his name. By the way where did you learn to speak, if you don't mind my asking.", Sigma questioned. "Not at all. We grew up homeless and learned to speak at a theater that only played Shakesponyan plays. We also learned to read through their old scripts", Fire Storm replied nonchalantly. After another minute of silence Storm asked another question. "Two questions of thou, if thou doth mind. Thou hath never told us of thine name strange burning being." e "I am Sigma and I am a fragment." "Aaahhh yes that answer thine second question." "So what is the name of your fine establishment.", Sigma asked Fire Storm. "Tis called Freddie Frazabeer's. Thy tavern is not as well know as some of the other taverns in town but we still make a fine brew. We're here thy friends.", He exclaimed as they stopped in front of homely little bar. They walked in and Meta looked around. "The message board is over to thine's right. When thy finds a job come find thee. I shath be tending to the bar.", Storm said with a smile. The Meta just nodded and walked towards the board. It had jobs ranging from bounty-dead to escort. Meta randomly chose a a bounty job. WANTED: DEAD Burning Legion (gang leader) Wanted for: -theft -murder -attempted murder -armed robbery Burning Legion is wanted for the theft of hundreds of bits. Armed robbery of the Manehattan national bank. The murder of three people. Attempted murder of two others. DESCRIPTION: -sickly green fur -black and orange mane -irises white rimed with red -scar along his chin LOCATION: Located at runners watch. Likely in the middle of the underground complex surrounded by gang. Gang wears red warpaint around their eyes, a black bandanna around around their left foreleg. 600 bit reward dead 700 bit reward alive "Dead or alive" The meta asked sigma as he pulled the page off the board. "Hmmmm I am going to say alive because its more ... bits, for us but he'll be easier to handle dead. Quite the predicament. Lets take him alive but if he's to unruly we can take him in dead. Alright lets take this up to Fire Storm. They turned and walked up to the bar. Meta knocked on the bar twice gaining the attention of Fire. He looked up from the conversation he was having with a sort of bipedal dog and gave them the one second gesture. He handed the dog a beer and took two small, golden, coins and put them into a pocket of the apron he was wearing and walked over. "What can thy do for thou? Doth thou find a quest?" Meta slid the paper over the counter for him to look at. His eyes widened in shock as he read over the paper. They suddenly narrowed in anger. "Thy am glad thou took this quest. Thine first memory was of a guild member killing thine parents. They were part of this guild. I'll contact the quest giver and inform him that thou took the quest." "I have a few questions if it's alright with you. What's a bit, and who was that you were talking to?", Sigma asked Fire. Appearing on Meta's shoulder. He pulled out one of the small coins and showed the two. It was bronze with half a sun on one side and half a moon on the other. "This is a half bit. You can tell by it being bronze, a quarter bit is gold and has quarter of a sun and moon on it, a full bit is silver and has a full sun and moon on it. "As for the diamond dog she's the reason thy get so much hate. Ponies even tried to arrest thy for. That is thine wife." "Alright thank you." Meta turned and walked twords the door after gabbing the paper. "We'll be back in two or three days." Quest started: Gangs all here.
twoAlright Meta think, Storm said that the bandits were at runners watch. The Meta was at the center of town and the ruins were northeast of his current position. Nodding to himself, he headed northeast. So how do you think this is going to go down? Actual gang or milk drinking wanna-be's. Sigma inquired. "I Don't know nor do i care. I'm just in it for the violence. You know What they say 'violence is always the answer!'" "Stop right there monster", a voice cried out at The Meta. Turning they saw what looked like one of the guards from that castle. Looking him up and down The Meta saw he was wearing bronze armor instead of gold. "You are under arrest by the manehattan branch of the town guard remove your weapons and come quietly and you will not be harmed!" "Under what charges", Sigma asked appearing in front of the guard. The guard stumbled back in surprise and tried to slash Sigma in two with a short sword. "I will repeat myself, under what charges?" "A-a-assault of 20 royal guards, resisting arrest and attempted murder of the elements of harmony", the guard started nervously but grew in confidence. "So I will repeat myself, you are under arrest'', He said with as much authority as he could muster. "So I expect the twenty, what was it, royal guards were court marshaled and the ..." "Elements of harmony." "Ahh yes, Elements of Harmony were arrested." "Tell me why that would be monster." he spat the last word out like a eight year old spits out broccoli. "They tried to arrest us with no charges, the guards attacked us and the same goes for the elements." "He said the resisted arrest could not have happened because there were no charges and they didn't read us our rights, thus there was no arrest in the first place. In both cases with the royal guard and the Elements they attacked us without provocation giving us the right to self defense. Anything else?" The guard just sat there flabbergasted. Before shaking his head. He started to turn to walk away when Meta grabbed his shoulder and pulled him around. "Hey up do you know where runners watch is?" Sigma asked. If the guards jaw dropped any lower it would hit oil. "Y-y-y-y your taking on R-r- runners watch", the guard stuttered in amazement "nopony has ever been able to even get close!" "Then it's a good thing we ain't ponies", The Meta turned and walked in the direction of runners watch. The crowds made way for the giant 6 foot 3 stature. Twilight was sitting alone in the back of the royal library. She was doing the [less than ] amazing, she was READING! There were piles of books all around her, some reaching 30 high. The more surprising fact was that Celestia was right there next to her. "Princess, what are we looking for", Twilight asked. Celestia looked up from the book she was currently reading ''well . . . What the Meta said got me thinking, what if we are going to have to physically fight him to get him in stone? Then there's the fact that this is who he is. With Discord, he wasn't always the embodiment of chaos but when he embodied it the elements couldn't separate it from him so,rather than killing him, they froze him in stone. With this being . . .", Celestia berried her head in her hands with a sigh. "I just don't know." "What do you mean 'you don't know'", Twilight inquired. She put the book down and turned to her mentor. "I mean the elements might not effect him. We need and artifact or weapon or something. I think you know by now that this monster isn't a pony. Meaning how he's acting could just be part of his nature and the elements can't actually change a beings nature.." "So what does this mean about Nightmare Moon and Luna?" Twilight's thoughts were racing faster than a race between Rainbow Dash and Sonic.If that's true then Nightmare is still probably out there. How could we stop her? Why am I thinking about this, I've bigger pieces of grass to fry. "She wasn't real in the first place. She was always just part of Luna's mind. She got angry and jealous so her mind became unstable, the elements just stabilized her mind. Now can we get to the task at hand, please?'' "Yeah, sure." They turned back to the books. Around them, the piles of books only grew. They went on like this for several hours. Celestia only got explosive crossbow bolts. Twilight got a rain of exploding cheese . "Were did you find that Twilight? The exploding cheese book." "Over there in the daderic spells section. This daderic lord, Shoegorath, looks like he could give discord a run for his bits. So as it turns out that if we could get some daderic weapons and armor we could take him on no problem but you need a dadera's heart to make it and something called ebony." Twilight explained enthusiastically. Celestia walked over to the section that Twilight pointed to and started browsing. There were several books about magical weapons but none of them were readily use able. Suddenly a book drew Celestia's attention. Grasping it in her magic she looked at the title. Weapons of the Dragon-spire, relics of the old world Written by Muffinator The Adventurous Celestia new Muffinator, he was Ditzy Doo's great great great grand father of her mother's side. Good stallion. Huh I didn't know he wrote anything on his adventures. Celestia thought opening the book. She walked over to the table and sat down. The First page was a letter. Greetings, My name is Muffinator Doo. I am the best adventurer at this point in time. This book is by no means fictional and all in formation in this book is as accurate as I can make it. So allow me to explain the meaning of this book. I stumbled across stories of old world weapons and armor. I will state this now, Celestia if you or Luna is reading this then know that I'm sorry. Why, you ask. Well it will be abundantly clear in the end. Now, these weapons and armor are only usable by an individual element of harmony, meaning that the princesses can not use them. The last and final thing I have to say is, to be able to access these relics you MUST HAVE experienced blood shed and death at your own hands. I'm sorry but that's how it is. The ever adventurous, Muffinator
ThreeThis page WILL contain gore AND violence. "Meta the facility is coming into view." The Meta looked up from his feet and saw a two- story, stone wall. There were six men standing at the gate, which was a giant oak set of double doors. On the back wall was a three story tall tower with four archers at the top, there were also guards walking the the wall. "Sigma, zoom in on one of the guards." The chosen guard matched the description of a gang member. "Red paint rimming the eyes, black bandanna around left arm. Yep, this is the place." He pulled his weapon off his back (the UR-5O F0K3D, with added blades of badassosity. A.K.A. Kni-fle [That's a mix of knife and rifle. Yep came up with it myself.]) and fired three shots at the gate guards. One of the explosive rounds slammed into the gate blowing it off it's hinges the other two detonated at the foot of the gate guards blowing them to oblivion and back, then to oblivion again. He sprinted into the fort and tackled a gang member to the ground and rammed the front blade into his abdomen, splattering his chest with blood. Standing up the Meta detached the front blade and placed the Kni-fle on his back. A gang member took a downward stroke at him with a claymore, it was side stepped with ease. Meta grabbed the blade and pulled him over ramming his fist into the stallion's face, breaking the stallion's everything. "Behind you, left side, going for a diagonal slash. Mark." Meta ducked and spun around kicking the mare's legs out from under her. "Set." Meta grabbed her tail and pulled her over to him and he slashed her throat then stood up. A unicorn shot a blast of sizzling magic at him. Meta ran at it head on and jumped over it landing in a dive roll and sprang to his feet. He kicked the unicorn in the stomach, she doubled over in pain and Meta stabbed her in the back off the neck severing her vertebra. A pegasus knocked him down with a,literal, flying tackle. Meta kicked the pegsus off him and stood up, she tried to get to her hooves but Meta kicked her in the chest shattering her ribs. "*Ack cough cough*-" she spit a mouthful of blood at Meta's foot "- We *cough cough* are only the grunts and c-cannon foder," and the mare died. "Good, I'd be disappointed if you were anything more." The Meta was reused from his thoughts by the thudding of hooves. Ponies rushed from the building and archers crowded the top of the walls, earth ponies stood at the bottom of the walls boxing him in. The door at the bottom of the tower creaked open and stood the target himself, Burning Legion. Slowly, veeeeeerrrryyyyy slowly. "Sooooo, they couldn't get to me so they sent a freak in armor. Hmm hmm hmm, how quaint. Well-", he drew a sword off his back "- I suppose you're screwed. You might as well just lie down and . . . DIE." Burning launched himself at Meta. He thrust his sword at Meta. Meta spun out of the way and grabbed the back of Burning's shirt and slammed him to the ground. Meta walked over to the unicorn he killed in the skirmish with the grunts and pulled it out of her neck and re- attached it to his Kni-fle. "Bad move turning your back to an opponent who's still breathing." Meta turned around and observed how the gang leader was approaching him. "This is different he's moving with caution. I guess he's figured out that we're dangerous", Sigma said. Sigma appeared on Meta's shoulder, surprising the gang, to address Burning legion. "Heh heh heh heh, no I believe it is you that needs to lie down and die." With that statement Sigma disappeared and Meta went on the offensive. Meta shot at Burning with the strength of a cannon and punched him in the gut, forcing blood and spittle out of his mouth. Then Meta grabbed him by his mane and slammed his muzzle into Meta's knee. *Crack* "Whelp, there goes his nose." Meta backed off so Burning could get to his feet. But his rest was interrupted when Meta gabbed the hand holding the sword . . . and crushed it to a pulp. "AAHHHRRRRGGGG" Burning dropped his sword and fell to his knees cradling the mess of bone and flesh that was, until recently, his hand. "Tsk tsk tsk tsk, now really I thought you you were going to be tough. Well I suppose I can just put up down." As the Meta approached him, Burning looked up at the Meta. His eyes were filled with tears of pain and fear. The meta looked down at him ,*sigh*, "pathetic". Meta kicked him in the chest breaking his ribs. "w-w-who a-a-are y-you? A-a-are y-you a m-m-m-monster*cough cough* o-or a . . . demon?" For a moment Burning legion thought he heard words come from the senseless growls coming from the monster as it picked up his sword. "We are the Meta." *Swish shwink*
FourFreddy Fazzbeer's Fire Storm was tending the bar when a brown Pegasus stallion with a gray mane walked in. He was wearing chain mail armor and a faded brown ( facing the screen, the one on the left ) duster over it, he also had a one handed long- sword on his back and kite shield strapped to his arm. He walked up to the bar and sat pulled up a stool to sit on. "Bar tender! some service please", he called out in a deep gravely voice. Fire put the glass he was polishing down and walked over. " What can we retrieve thou?" The stallion looked down in thought for a second. "I'll take a whisky on the rocks." "Any preferences?" "Diablo's espada de fuego, if you have it." Fire Storm turned around to fetch the drink with a nod. "Before I forget, I'm Quick Draw, the sheriff of the town guard. You called about the bounty for Burning Legion. Did somepony finally bring him down and/ or in?" Fire handed the Pegasus his drink "Five bits and he hasn't returned just yet. Also we are uncertain as to whether he is a pony or not" The sheriff looked at Fire Storm confused. Fire picked up on this look and explained. "He is six foot six inches and wears white armor and his helmet is mainly yellow, oh what is the word.... ah yes, polarized glass. At least we think that tis the word. Pardon, our mind was drifting. The armor is an odd sort." "Odd, how so?" he inquired. The bar tender paused to gather his thoughts. "Oh how do we put this. The armor, tis not made for a pony, nor was it made by any species we know of. The armor is, for lack of correct terms, too perfect." Fire sighed and rubbed the back of his head. The armor shows no sign of being forged and hammered. Sure there are dents and scratches in the armor but thou can tell they are from battles past. A second reason being, there are no naturally white metals known to any races. The only painted part of the armor are yellow accents here and there." "Well that is certainly odd but how would you know such things?" Asked Quick Draw before he finished his drink. Fire was about to answer when the door to the bar slammed into the wall. The person who kicked it open slowly lowered their foot. Everyone in the bar looked at the figure in the doorway. *Thump - thump - thump - thump - thump* Quick Draw was trying to see who it was but the sun was directly behind the figure leaving not but a figure shrouded in darkness walking toward the two at the bar. A flaming being burst into assistance on the figures shoulder. " We're back Fire. Has the bounty come in yet?" "Ah yes, Sheriff Quick Draw here twas merely awaiting thine return." Quick draw stood and reached out his hand for a shake. Instead he got a moist red sack [Giggid- oh wait that's not mine. Bow chick-ah bow wow. that's better.] that was dripping a beep maroon color. Quick looked back and forth between the bag and the figure he now knew to be the one that Fire Storm was describing. "Uh. . . What do I do with this?" He asked, his gaze finally settling on the Meta. "GrrGRRrr." Meta rubbed his pointer and middle finger against his thumb then held out his hand. Quick stared at the hand for a second before realizing what the gesture meant. His pupils dilated and he looked at the bag still in his hand, he slowly opened it revealing the head of Burning Legion; eyes glazed over and staring, lifelessly. Quick dropped the bag and fell to his hands and knees. He raised a hand to his mouth and retched. Never in all his years had anypony brought him a severed head as proof of a completed job. At most it was only ever a photograph or the actual convict, if wanted alive. The bar tender put a bucket by Quick's head and Quick couldn't fight the urge anymore he leaned over the bucket and vomited. He slowly got to his hooves and looked at the Meta, who held out his hand again, and said "You're a monster, I hope you know that but damn it if I won't stay true to my word. Here's your money." he placed a sack in the Meta's hand [Don't do it.I'm tryingNo don't say i-BOW CHICK-AH BOW WOW. Oh gosh no, please you made that happen and I should be able to appear next chapter.]. "A monster he is, But efficient are his methods." said Sigma. "ggRRrrr grrRRGRRR." "Fine I'll drop the Yoda act." Canterlot Celestia and Twilight were about to continue their reading of Muffinators journal when a guard rushed into the library. "Princesses! The creature has appeared in Manehattan. He has taken care off the infamous crime- lord, Burning Legion." "What?!" Twilight called hopping to her hooves. "When was this?" The guard flinched at the volume of Twilight's voice. "A little over an hour ago the sheriff of the Manehattan town guard sent in the weekly crime report. The Town guard has attempted the re- taking of Runners Watch several times. So now Runners watch is open for us." The guard pulled a scroll from within his armor and handed it to Celestia. "This is his last known location and what he was doing." "Thank you guard, you are dismissed", Celestia said. He saluted and walked out of the room. Celestia opened the scroll an read it over. "Well. . . What does it say?" Twilight asked curiously. Celestia levitated the scroll to Twilight. location: Manehattan -Old Manehattan -Freddy Fazzbear (Tavern) Harbored by: Storm family -Fire storm (Unicorn) *Bartender -Gentle Rain (Diamond Doge) *Blacksmith -Snow Storm (Unicorn) *Daughter -Monsoon (Pegasus) *Son The being known as "The Meta" is being harbored by the Storm family.
