Chapter 2: Crossfire

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

Wildfire smiled to herself, she was to be freed. The goddess whispered in her ear. Her love, subdued and buried inside her began to boil. The volcano was no longer dormant. Soon, soon the rebellion would face the most dangerous of fires. Truth. They would all burn by her belief in the Goddess' truth. And that fire can not stop burning. Soon...very soon, the infidels would burn and it would all be in the name and love of celestia, the eternal goddess of the universe....


Canterlot Hedgemaze-8:00am

Magna Carta stood next to a lead cage. He didn't know what was in it and he didn't want to. All he knew was that This was celestia's pet, and it was not to be touched. Luna was not here to directly oversee the exchange but the full brigade of Royal guards made him feel just a little bit better...Not...Really, but still! Better than just him. Celestia on the other hoof had no guards save for a single royal guard do drew the carriage that the Lunar republic soldiers were supposedly held in, and he departed as soon as he saw the lead box. Who or what could scare off a royal guard who was loyal to the same princess.

"Ahhh Mr.Carta, I'm so happy you did as Instructed. I had hoped to have my pony a little before now but, i suppose Luna has been busy yes?"

"I'm not sure."

"Ohhhh aren't you know? You don't know about her alliance with the zebras?"

"Your highness...I'm just here to make sure this goes off fine."

"Heheohh ho ho...My little pony, you have no idea how wrong you are...Very well, Let's not discuss my sister...Your Friends-"

"I don't know a single pony in that carriage."

"Hehe...Of course not...You shall drag that box to me, and then take this one back with you. I'm sure luna has prepared some sort of transportation spell to bring you out as soon as you're away from that magic blocking lead crate.

Ahhh, so the crate blocks magic. Explains allot. Were it not for this hunk of metal, I might have been vaporized...And it also explains why that guard had to be here. Were she able Celestia would probably have just teleported it in...Or told me she would have and not have...<

"Ok, first however. I have to have proof that-"

"They're still alive? My dear little Negotiator. The fact I'm not covered in godly head, to gorgeous hoof in their peasant blood is proof enough."

She really was different.<

Magna carta fluttered over. Pushing the large lead box along with him. He got small twitches of anticipation but dismissed them as nerves. No reason to worry. He hovered off the ground just barely six inches from the princess.

"Here. It's uh...It's all yours."

"Heh, well then. Take your traitors."

The princess tapped the carriage wit ha hoof and out tumbled the trio of prisoners. They were unconscious and beaten but alive. Magna carta couldn't believe the brutality. He gripped the collars of the tree of them and dragged them along with him as he struggled to fly backwards with three ponys gripped in his teeth

"Oh...And Mr.Carta..."

This won't be good.

"Yes your highness."

"Do you love me?"

"W-w-what?!"

"Do you love your princess of the sun? It is a simple question isn't it?"

"It is, but..."

That smile again! The sneaky one! What was she planning!<

Celestia smiled her newly perfected sinister smile and put a hoof on her chest

"Or maybe..."

Oh goddess please no<

"You love me, love me... Is that the case my little pony?"

Oh luna, why. Why did things have to get weird...So so soooo weird!<

"That's it isn't it? You're lusting after me. That's cute."

That smile again...No she wasn't actually doing this, not legitimately accusing me...What was she picking at?<

The Lead box thunked and tumbled on its side as dent after dent formed in it. What ever was inside had enough power the box was closing in on it as it tried to release power.

"Oh dear...I'm affraid my little toy doesn't like our love...I think she wants to punish you..."

-Thrunk-Twank-Struch-

"P-princess...W-we had an agreement..."

"Indeed we did. They are not dead and I have not quite recieved my servant. This box needs t ocome off before our exchange is complete."

"What ever is inside there will kill me!"

"WHOever is inside this. Please Mr.Carta. It at least thinks it's a pony, you can at least pretend to treat it like one."

Magna carta heard a synphony in his head, he had no idea where it was coming from but he did know where the heat that washed over him along with it came from. The lead box had just got a new crack in it...That was spewing fire.

"Magna Carta, please say hello to my faithful student...Wildfire."

With a loud roar and the sound of fire, the a white Mare, with a burning orange mane and a Pile of ash with fire atop it on her flank burst from the box in a terrible display of magic. Magna carta staggered back in shear terror, the classical music continued as Celestia's smile spread from cheek to cheek, forcing her to cover her mouth with a hoof, trying to hide her satisfaction.

"Holy mother of-!"

"Shut up infidel! How DARE you lust after my goddess! I will see that you burn in the fires of your heresy!"

"What the-?!"

"DIE HERETIC!"

The white mare pounced in a torrent of fire and closed the distance between her and Magna faster than he could react.

Everything went white.
