"Our hero,Our hero claims a warrior's heart..."
Those who stand against Tamriel and its people have learned to fear the legend of the Dragonborn. Those who stand with Tamriel have learned to love and cherish everything the Dragonborn has done for them. The Dovakiin has provided them with everything they could need: An end to the dragons,a solution to the war,the suppression of Vampiric takeovers and a way of getting rid of people that needed to be taken care of.
"I'll tell you,I'll tell you the Dragonborn comes..."
With the eater of worlds,Alduin,defeated. Peace ran all through Skyrim and most of the places surrounding it. There were fewer bandits,barely any necromancers,giants stayed near their camps and The Reach came to appreciate visitors more often. Who could ask for any less peace? Why would anybody want this to end? Who could possibly be sick without battle?
"With a voice wielding power of the ancient Nord arts..."
Why the dovakiin of course. How could this Dragonborn go back to sitting around doing nothing,when all his life he knew nothing but battle? How could this Dragonborn possibly settle down with a lovely lady or man when he has one of the itchiest sword arms in Skyrim? How could he go back to eating regular food when a ring of a daedra keeps him hungry for human flesh? What could he possibly do?
"Beware,beware the Dragonborn comes..."
Near midnight,inside the Nightingale Inn in Northern Skyrim,the Innkeeper was cleaning a few glasses as he kept a close eye on his customer who sat by the fire as an Elf woman in hide armor sung. The customer was wearing hooded scowl with feline ears popping out of the top,a set of Nightingale Armor,minus the gloves which were Dark Brotherhood gauntlets. A Ebony Bow near its quiver,along with a big bag of what possibly seemed like gold. Several rings adorned the fingers of the customer,each has an eerie glow. What gave away his race was the tail that swayed behind him. It was a dark gray and black spotted Khajiit tail that seemed to sway with malicious intent.
"You'll know,you'll know the Dragonborn comes..."
When the song ended,the customer clapped before reaching down into the bag to pull out a handful of gold. He then dropped it on the end table next to him. The elf woman seemed to be afraid when the gold dropped on the table as she rubbed her throat. Then in a daunting tone the customer spoke.
"Again..."
The elf woman shook her head and gulped when she heard the knuckles of the customer crack. The Khajiit then stood up and walked over to the woman,causing her to back up into a wall. Her body seemed to shake as she looked into the almost glowing orange eyes of the customer. She then felt a claw tickle her neck before the whole hand of the person in front of her gripped her throat.
"You dare defy me!" He shouted,his breath was harsh with the smell of mead on it.
She tried her best to get out of the gripped of the Khajiit but he was too strong for her. She could feel the life draining from her body. Just when she thought her life was gonna end there,the sound out glass breaking could be heard and slight wetness was felt on her skin.
"Let her go,cat!"
The Khajiit had cringed from the new pain that was in his neck from the glass bottle that was thrown at him. He then looked back,the light from the fire revealing the face of a dark gray and black spotted Khajiit that had scratch marks on the bridge of his nose. The Innkeeper gulped and stepped back grabbing a dagger off the railing that lead to the cellar but when turned back around,all he saw was the Khajiit licking blood off of his hand. His expression changed from scared to completely terrified. When the Khajiit got done,he looked at the innkeeper with a smile.
"You shouldn't have done that..." His voice sounded more like an Imperial's than one of his native race's.
Outside,the Khajiit sat on a dock,drinking from a vial filled with a blue liqiud. Behind him was a burning Inn that seemed to melt the snow around it. The cat person then let out a harsh sigh before tossing the vial into the lake,then the sound of footsteps crunching in the snow could be heard behind him.
"Ty'zear...Ty'zear...you need to learn to control your temper..." said the voice of a dark,male voice that seemed to echo.
The Khajiit stood up and turned around to see a dark brown horse with red,glowing eyes. It let out a whinny and shook its head,making the cat growl with anger.
"I thought I left you around the corner,Shadowmere..." The cat said flatly.
"You did,but I got a mission from the brotherhood.." The horse said without moving his mouth.
"I'm not in the mood to kill..."
"It's not a kill order,it's a retrieval order."
Ty'zear let out a harsh groan and walked towards the horse before climbing on the back of it. He pulled on the reigns of the horse and it started to walk towards the left of the burning Inn.
"So where is this place? Is it like halfway across the map?" Ty'zear asked,as he looked around. Then suddenly Shadowmere came to a stop only a few yards away from the Inn.
"Actually it's up there." Shadowmere said as he looked to the right side of him.
Ty'zear looked up to where his steed was looking and saw a cave with Dragon Tongue flowers and horse saddles around it. So without and a cat's natural curiosity,he guided Shadowmere up to the cave. "So what are we trying to retrieve,Shady?"
The horse bucked a bit,forcing his rider off of him. "I'll kill you if you call me that again...." He said before closing his eyes. "You are trying to retrieve a bow called...Uh...'The Longbow of Friendship?'"
Ty'zear tried so hard to keep a straight face but couldn't but bursting out into laughter as he heard the name of the item in question,and Shadowmere just simply huffed. After about five minutes of straight laughter,Ty'zear was able to compose himself enough to talk without bursting into a fit of laughs. "Alright...let's head in...By Mara that was amusing."
"I'm not going in there..." The dark horse shook his head. "Spiders are in caves..."
Ty gave Shadowmere one long stare before opening his mouth to speak, "We've killed everything from Giants to Dragons...and a Greybeard..." They both seemed to look towards High Hrofgar before looking back at each other. "But you're afraid of insects...INSECTS!"
Shadowmere looked away from Ty'zear and huffed. "They are creepy crawlies and they make my skin crawl..." He looked back at the cat man. "At least I don't have an irrational fear of Giant Butterflies that don't exist..."
Ty blushed and growled under his breath. "Fine! You don't have to come in..." He turned away from his steed and walked towards the cave. "Just wait out here for me..."
"No problem,kitty..." Shadowmere said as he slowly laid himself down on the ground as his rider went into the cave. "Good Luck..."
Inside the cave,Tyzear had his bow drawn and was crouch walking,his footsteps were as silent as a deaf person's hearing.The dungeon looked the same as any other but Ty knew something was off. As he got further into the cave,he noticed that the everything was getting brighter and brighter in color. Soon he came to a large silver door with a heavy lock on it. This was no problem for him however,since over his journeys his lockpicking skill has gotten alot better. So after breaking about 10 picks the lock dropped off and the door was open. He pushed open the door and walked in,putting away his bow. Inside was a big,bright room with a pedestal in the middle and on that pedestal was the item he had to retrieve. It was a purple bow and near it was a quiver with 5 arrows,all different colors.
Ty walked up to the pedastal and grabbed the bow. "This is a peculiar color...not really cover-" He was cut off when a large,white door appeared with 5 strange symbols with colors that matched the arrows on it that seemed to confuse the cat. "Apples,butterflies,gems,some kind of floating balls and a stormcloud with rainbows..."
Then some words in the language of the Dova that read, "Fire at the symbols with the arrows in the quiver. Then the door shall open..." Ty was a bit confused,the words weren't as cryptic as most writers in dungeons but at most it made his curiosity grow more. So he grabbed the orange feathered arrow and shot it at the apple symbol,only for it to go through it. So with a smile,he shot the arrows at the corresponding symbols,then the symbols went black and the door opened. A bright,white light shone through blinding the khajiit.
"What the hell?" The light dimmed and he started to walk into the light filled room as his nostrils flared. "Honey...and Snowberries..." Then the floor seemed to disappear under him.
"Oh..."
"Ah don't think we should be in here?" Said a small cute voice with a country accent.
Small steps could be heard crushing twigs that lay on the forest of the Everfree Forest floor. Walking through it was tree small horse like figures. One was a white filly with a curly mane that had a horn protruding from it,another was a orange filly with a wavy purple mane and small wings on her back,the last one was a yellow filly with a long red mane in a pony tail tied with a bow at the top. The three were trotting at a brisk pace,one more nervous than the other. The orange one lead them as the white one stayed near the back.
"Oh come Applebloom! Why ya gotta like such a chicken?" The orange one asked as she looked back at the yellow one.
The yellow one huffed. "Ah'm not a chicken!" She yelled as she trotted in front of the orange one,taking the lead.
"Why do you two always have to argue when we come in here?" The white filly asked with a tilted head.
"She started it!" The two filled in front shouted in unison.
As the white was about to open her mouth,the three stopped in their tracks as they thought they heard some distant yelling that sorta sounded like a very angry man. Then a very harsh thud could be heard not so far away from the three fillies.
"W-What was that?!" The yellow filly asked with a bit of a stumble in her voice.
"I think it came from that way!" The white said pointing to the left of her.
The orange one started running towards that direction with an adventurous smile. "Let's go check it out!"
The two stood there after for a minute after their orange friend disappeared into the brush before following after her. After a few minutes of running,the three came to a clearing where they found a large crater. They were hesitant at first but they decided to peek into the hole in the ground. As they crept over toward it,they could feel their little hearts thumping with each step. Then with united hesitation,they peeked into the crater and what they saw made their eyes widen. In the crator laid a strange being,he had two legs,two strange appendages that came out of his torso and was wearing some kind of clothing that gave off a dim green and orange glow. The strangest thing about the creature was that it had cat ears and a cat tail.
The orange one looked over at the yellow filly named Applebloom and said,"Go check it out."
Applebloom shook her head and looked over at the orange one. "Why do ah hav' t' go check it out?"
"Because....you're the...umm..." The orange one chuckled nervously which made the white one roll her eyes.
"I'll go check it out." She said plainly before carefully going down into the crater.
"Be careful Sweetie Bell!" The two remaining shouted in unison.
As the white filly they called Sweetie Bell slid down the crater,she kept her eyes on the strange being. She gulped hard as she got to the bottom,the being laid their motionless but she could see that it was breathing. So she approached it and gave it a poke with her hoof. Nothing happened,it continued to lay there,so she poked it again.
"Hey...are you okay?" She asked with many continuous pokes.
Then with one final poke the being popped up,its hood came off, revealing the creatures cat like head and braid mane. Its eyes sprung open with the look of extreme pain in them. Sweetie Bell backed away as the creature grabbed its back and fell on its side before letting a soft groan. She hesitantly walked over to the creature and poked its back.
"H-Hey mister..." She gulped and trotted to the front of the creature. "Or miss...”
The creature let out another groan. "You...had it right...the first time...child...” He peeked up at who he was talking to and his eyes widened. Sweetie Bell backed away as he back,not taking his piercing orange eyes off of her. She had a bit of fear in her eyes as he stared at her. Then he slowly tilted his head and scratched the top of it. "Did you just talk,little filly?"
Sweetie was a bit frightened so all she could do was nod. This made the creature wipe his face and chuckle a bit before slowly getting to his feet as he looked away from her.
"I must've taken a fall and hit my head....horses can't talk." He said,ending with another chuckle.
Sweetie Bell gulped and poked the creature's leg. "Um...sir...we can talk."
The cat creature looked down at her. "Well then...that's...strange..." He looked around and sniffed the air. "I smell two more of your kind around here."
"Oh those are my friends." She pointed up to the top of the crater and there stood two more small fillies.
The creature nodded and started to pat himself down. "Well I guess that'll come later..." He mumbled to himself before looking down at the white filly. "Where's the nearest town,little one?"
"Ponyville but..." She looked the tall creature over with a concerned look. "I don't think you'll fit in there,Mister."
The cat looked himself over and chuckled. "I assume that this world is mainly dominated by the Equines that you are so...” He put his hood back on. "I shall follow as you lead."
Sweetie Bell hesitantly nodded as she went over and tried to scale the side of the crater but slid down. So the creature picked her up and jumped up out of the crater and landed in front of the two other fillies,startling them. The two moved back as he put Sweetie down.
"There you are,little one." The creature then flashed a smile at the two others. "Hello little ponies,what are your names?"
"A-Ah Applebloom..." The yellow one said,stumbling over her words.
"I'm Scootaloo..." the orange one said.
The white one poked his leg. "And I'm Sweetie Bell." She said looking up at the cat. "What's your name?"
The cat creature smiled and looked down at the three. "My name is Ty'zear Leona..." He caught a dagger that fell out of a tree. "Dragonborn."

The first of many slow updates. Please have some patience,I hope you bros and madams will like this story.
The group of four walked through the forest, the little fillies occasionally looking back at their tall cat friend who had been collecting weapons as they walked. He seemed to be sticking the weapons into multiple weapon sheaths that existed on his person but they couldn't be seen by anyone else.
"That should be the last dagger. Now I just got to find my...” He looked up ahead and saw two bows hanging from a branch; one was a black one with an orange aura around it and the purple one that he obtained in the dungeon. "There they are!"
The cat signaled for the little ponies to stay put before he went over to tree that the bows were hanging off of. He then backed up before running up the tree and kicked off of it to grab the branch. He started to shimmy across the branch but then he stopped as his ear perked. He looked around; looking for any type of movement but even his cat eyes couldn't see anything. So he continued to shimmy over to the bows before finally getting to them. He swung up on to the branch, keeping his balance as he walked on the branch. Just as he bent down to unhook the bows; he heard the sound the sound of the little fillies screaming. He looked over and saw the three little ponies surround by what seemed to be wolves made of wood. Without a second thought, he took out a dagger and threw it at one of the wolves. When it made contact, the wolf was set ablaze. This made the other wolves turn and look up at him, so he unhooked the bows and hopped down.
"Well don't just stand there you wooden abominations." He equipped the black bow, a quiver of appearing on his back.
"Come at me with haste!"
With a series of growls the Timberwolves rushed him and he pulled an arrow out and drew the bow back . When one of
them pounced he released arrow and it shot into the wolf, setting it ablaze. Then just as fast as another wolf pounced
towards him, he threw another dagger into it, setting it on fire like the other. By then, there was one wolf left, who was cowering back from the tall cat man. A smile crept on his face as his eyes started to glow a bright purple.
"Run little doggy." He said in a daunting voice.
Without hesitation, the wolf ran into the forest and the cat man's eyes dimmed back to the original orange. He looked over at the fillies that looked at him in awe and amazement. The stares kind of reminded him of when he slain his first dragon, except the eyes are that are looking at him are cuter than those of the ones in the Whiterun guard.
"That. Was. Awesome!" The three fillies shouted excitedly.
Ty’Zear chuckled and proceeded to collect his weapons and non-broken arrows from the corpses of the dead wolves.
"It's nothing too impressive, Young ones. Wolves are generally the weakest enemies to slay." He said as he put his weapons in the correct slots except his ebony bow which he kept equipped in case any other enemies attacked. "Now make haste. I'd like to get out of this place as fast as I can."
With that said, the group made their way out of the dark forest.
After about an hour or so, the group arrived at the entrance of the Everfree. Ty'Zear growled a bit and shielded his eyes from the light. After the momentary blindness he took a look at his very colorful surroundings and in all honesty he felt a bit lost. The Khajiit was used to the dark, gray look of his world not this bright, colorful place. So with a sigh, he looked towards the fillies who were heading to a cottage in the distance that seemed to have animals populating it.
"Come on, mister!" Applebloom called out as she looked back at the cat man.
Ty'Zear shrugged and started to walk. "I guess I have no real choice but to follow these three for now." As he drew closer to the cottage he noticed what seemed to be a yellow one of the orange one's kind tending to the animals. Knowing that it was possibly harmless, he decided to put his bow away for the time being. The three fillies then approached the yellow, winged horse and even with feline ears he could barely make out what they were saying from his distance but when they looked back at him, he knew. "And now I'm seen..."
The three fillies ran up to him with the yellow horse hovering behind him. That's when Ty'Zear and the yellow one exchanged stares. The fillies between them looked at the two, confused about what was going on... What was happening in Ty'zear's mind was an intimidation contest to determine who would greet the other first.
"Why won't you break winged horse?" he thought to himself as he narrowed his gaze in to a glare. Then the winged horse titled its head just a little which made him break the glare and he could feel a blush growing which made his cheeks puff up a bit.
"I've never seen a cat like you before." The yellow, winged horse said in a soft, feminine tone that could melt souls. He wanted to speak but he felt like a Dragonfly was stuck in his throat. "Are you okay?" She asked as she flew over to the Khajiit.
Ty'Zear instinctively stepped back as she approached. He couldn't tell if it was fear overcoming him or just the aura of cuteness that emanated from the yellow horse. His ears folded flat to his head defensively and this made the yellow, flying horse cower back.
"Oh I'm sorry if I scared you..." the yellow mare said, her pink mane falling over one of her eyes.
Ty'Zear growled before finally opening his mouth, "I'm not scared of you...I just..." He sighed, his ears perking back up to their original standing stance. "I've never felt the aura that you had before. It's strange and I don't like it."
"Oh I'm sorr-"
"Please. Stop talking whoever you are..." He interrupted.
"Her NAME is Fluttershy." Scootaloo stated with some anger behind her tone.
Ty'Zear looked over at the three fillies who were now looking at him with a united glare, which kinda broke his heart. The small soft side of his heart, but he had to let out a sigh. "Alright, alright. I'm sorry." He said looking back at the yellow, flying horse. "Alright, Butterfly."
"Fluttershy!" Shouted the three little ones.
Ty'zear groaned as placed his palm on his forehead. "Fluttershy..." He looked over at the pegasus again and took off his cowl, revealing his face and head again. "I really need to find my way back home."
"Oh, where are you from, Mr. Kitty?" She asked, the name making the blush return to Ty's cheeks.
"I'm from Elswyer but I make my home in Skyrim." He said as he put his cowl back on.The names of the places seemed to confuse the pegasus and the three fillies, Ty'zear letting out a sigh at their confusion before looking at the sun, squinting a bit.
"I don't know any of those places but I do know a pony who may know them." She flew over to the Cutie Mark Crusaders before leaning her head down to them. "I want you three to take him to go see Twilight, okay?"
The three fillies nodded and ran past the pegasi, Ty'zear bowing to her before following them. Fluttershy watched them leave but her eyes widened as she saw a thick, bright red liquid dripping from one of his weapons, the sight of it causing her to faint.
