Author's Note

Ok folks this is not just my first MLP story but it is also my first crossover / Fall of Equestria story. So go easy on me please. Constructive criticism is ok but flame will only be used to heat my home. So without further to do. Lets get the show on the road!


Enter the Wolf

They thought victory was theirs. They thought none would resist. They thought all would fall. Well they thought wrong…

Deep below Canterlot’s Mountain

Hammers bang against the red-hot steel. Tools of war gathered neatly against a wall. Smoke and steam filled the massive cavern as many warriors don their armor to begin restoring order to the carnal chaos that was Equestria. But it is not the ponies that are gathering for war. No, they have all fallen in line of this ‘new order’ save for a few. These warriors came from a variety of species from crocodiles to lions each with the same instinct of the hunt coursing their veins. Reptiles, mammals, sea and avian creatures all gathering in front of their leader ready to fight, ready to die. And who is this leader you ask? Well to answer that we must go back in time towards the beginning of the Caribou’s reign.

Flashback Location Everfree Forest

Much has change since the reign of the Caribou began. Gone were the creatures that once inhabit this land and in their place were more examples of the simple mindedness of the caribou. But among the sounds of these things there was another. A sound that was soft that can be barely heard unless you already knew the tune. The song was coming from a flute that was being played by a stranger from another realm. This stranger was wearing armor that was black as the night sky. And though he had the body of a man his head was that of a wolf with a singular horn protruding from his head. His name, for those that may not know, is Zen-Aku. How he came to Equestria is unknown even to him. First he was paying his tribute to his once traveling companion Merrik. Next he was whisk away before he knew what happened. So now the Wolf Duke Org wanders through the Everfree Forest in hopes of some sign of civilization or at least some answers.

“Hmm.” Zen-Aku growled to himself. “It would appear that I have finally reach the edge of this strange wood.” Just as exited the forest he suddenly started hearing a struggle taking place beyond the hill in front of him. Zen-Aku dashed to the top of the hill and came upon a despicable sight. A white mare with a purple mane and tail was running for her very life while a group of male caribou and stallions were just inches away from her.

“Get away from me you uncivilized brutes!” the mare screamed at her pursuers. Zen-Aku watched as rage began to course through his veins. Even Orgs have some sense of decency not much but some. The males soon caught the mare and began groping her figure while holding her down. But before they could begin their cruel ‘fun’, they all started to hear music.

Everyone even the mare turn to see Zen-Aku approached them with his flute playing its’ haunting tune. When he finished he was a foot away from them and looked into each of their eyes with his own.

“I believe that the young lady requested that you back off.” Zen-Aku stated. His voice causing the men to shiver while giving the mare a glimmer of hope.

“She is just a stupid cunt that needs to know her place pal!” One of the caribou cried out. He thinks that he and his ‘superior’ allies would outmatch this stranger. Oh how wrong these fools be.

“Last chance mongrel,” Zen-Aku stated as he takes out his signature weapon. “Leave the mare in peace or leave the world in pieces!”

“GET HIM!” the men cried out as they charge at the stranger. Zen-Aku watch casually as the fools rush towards him before getting into his stance.

“Crescent Blade, CRESCENT WAVE!” Zen-Aku cried as a wave of energy flew out of his weapon and sliced the men in two. After the one-sided battle, Zen-Aku walked over to the mare to check for any injury she may have sustained. “Are you alright?”

“I am now thanks to your efforts, good sir.” The mare said gratefully. “And to think I thought there were no more good men around anymore.”

“You mean that there are more of these cretins!?” Zen-Aku asked in an astonished voice.

“It has been that way since the caribou took over.” The mare said. “Any decent male would have been shipped of to be transgendered and any mare with a scrap of resistance would be raped until their mind is completely gone.”

“Then I would wager that my being here is by some will of a god or something similar.”

“What do you mean?”

Zen-Aku stood back up and bowed to her causing the mare to blush. “I am Zen-Aku. Former Duke Org and warrior of the moon. May I inquire your name before we begin our journey?”

The mare was blushing so hard you would think that her coat was red instead of white. “ My name is Rarity Belle and what do you mean by a journey.”

“I have been seeking a way to redeem myself for past actions and it would appear that destiny has brought me here to achieve that goal Rarity.” Zen-Aku said honestly. "Now let us find you some appropriate attire for our journey. Or would you prefer to remain in the nude?"

Rarity then realized that she had been sitting in front of him with all of her good exposed. "Perhaps some attire would be nice good sir." She said embarrassingly as she tried to cover herself in vain.

Zen-Aku decided to assist by cutting strips of cloth from his own attire and offered them to her. "This should suffice for now"

"Th-thank you Sir Zen-Aku." Rarity stuttered and used the cloth to cover her bosom and created a loin cloth out of the remains.

"Just call me Zen-Aku Rarity." Zen-Aku stated "Now let us be on our way from the pile of trash before us."

And so the journey begins for the unicorn and Zen-Aku.
