The Harmony Theft
The face of Darkness
Previous ChapterI slowly opened my eyes and my friends surrounded me. "Ugh...my head...and body..." I was tired beyond anything I have ever felt. I yelped as my friends hugged me and cheered for me.
"That was so AWESOME!"
"Ya did amazing partner!"
"That creature was 50 times your size and you beat it...I need to know more about the strengths of your kind."
"Darling, that was amazing!"
"Ohmygoshthatwasamzingweshouldthrowaparty!"
"Yay..." I chuckled as I heard Fluttershy say that. I smiled and looked up to Celestia.
"You did good child."
"Yes," Luna agreed. "You have proven worthy."
"Thanks." I said.
"Come with me. Only you, Luna, Twilight and I." Celestia said. I got up and followed her. "I have only heard of one who could do what you did. You killed Fossilisco-"
"Stallord? The Twilit Fossil?" She looked at me.
"If that's what you call it." She chuckled. "But Luna and I now know that you are the one." Twilight's horn lit up and that flash happened again, but this time it faded out. I was in a forest. The...Master Sword? It looked just like it! It was in the stone in front of me.
"If the sword chooses you," Luna said. "Then you truly are the one, and we will give you the powers of The Guardian." I walked up to it. I looked back at my sword. It was gone...along with the sheath.
"What happened to-"
"That little thing?" Celestia said. "It was melted down again. It wasn't made for combat." I nodded. I put both my hands on the swords hilt and pulled up. It came out with ease. (And that is not a joke for the internet to in joy!) The sword was light...to light. I then held it in my right hand and raised it skyward. The mist surrounding the area was pushed away and wight fell upon the sword. It adjusted perfectly to me. "Now put it in the sheath." I looked back confused. "Just to it." I did the little slash sheath taunt Link did and sheathed it. I heard the sword slide against metal. I looked back and saw the shield and sheath. I turned to the Princesses and Twilight's horn lit up and she shot magic at me.
It filled my body with a warmth and it shot back out of me. I closed my eyes ans opened them. I looked at my tunic. It looked stitch for stitch, fabric for fabric, chain link to chain link, a spot on hero's tunic. My cap was the same. I raised my right hand and the tri-force glowed on it through the glove/gauntlet.
""The Elements of Power, Wisdom, and Courage are now yours."" Luna and Celestia said at the same time. No way... I looked to the pound around the stone.
"Holy shit!" Link was looking at me. Wait...was that...my reflection...? No way! I looked just like him! the shape of my eyes, my nose, the length of my hair, my build, everything was spot on! "I guess this is when you tell me my name is really Link, and I am the chosen hero of the gods? They giggled.
"No child," Celestia said. "Your name is Ryan. Unless you want us to call you that..."
"Please!" I said. More giggles.
"Very well...Link...we will now return to Canterlot." The flash came (Get your mind out of the gutter, I know that's what you were thinking all last chapter too...sickos) and faded. We walked to the room.
"Wait here." Luna said. The three of them walked in. "Link...come in." I walked in.
"Who is that?" Applejack asked.
"Hey AJ," I said. "How are ya?"
"""""RYAN?!""""" All five said. I laughed. We talked until a Guard came running in.
"PRINCESS!" He was screaming...that wasn't good. "CHRYSALIS IS HERE! AND ANOTHER ONE OF HIS KIND!" He pointed to me. Darkness...he was here. We made our way out to the castle gates. I saw Chrysalis and Darkness. Okay, If ya know what Zant wears in The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, then ya know what he was wearing. It was down to detail.
"Well...if it isn't that stupid little human." Chrysalis said. "And again, you have changed."
"And I see you haven't, your royal bitchness." Darkness seamed taken back.
"R...Ryan...?" That voice...no... It can't be! His mask folded away, reveling the face of my...father.
I must have looked as shocked as he did. "I...I see you are alive..."
"Like wise..." I said. I looked at him. His pale skin, his short, brown hair. his beard looked like Ganondorf's in a way. "What it you want Chrysalis?"
"To ask for the crowns of course."
"Fat fuckin chance." I said.
"Link..." Celestia said. "That is enough." She looked at the Changeling Queen, and my father. "We will never give the crowns to you."
"It's a shame. We'll just have to kill you then. Not now...but when my army is ready, expect blood shed."
"Ryan, you can join us. We will take over together, as father and son, we will rule this place along side the Changeling Queen!" My friends gasped as he said father and son.
"Link..." Twilight said. "Is this...?"
"Yes Twilight," I said. "Darkness is Rick...my father." I looked at Darkness. "You are not my father. I hate you. I will never rule along side you! Don't ever call me your son again!"
"Now now," He said. "Let's be real here. We are the stronger side. You are on the weaker side. I am giving you a chance to come over to the stronger side."
"Never!"
"Makes sense...you always were weak...makes sense you would want to be on the weak side. Your mother would join us." He just did that...he just pulled the dead mom card. "She never loved you. Killing her was the best thing I have ever done. Cutting you up and throwing you out as well. You are weak and helpless. It's a good thing I did throw you out." I was about to run up and kill him, but Celestia put a hoof on my shoulder.
"How did you get in?" She asked.
"Oh...a Guard let us in as soon as we said we were coming to kill the human. We aren't, but it worked and he let us in. He is joining us now as well." FUCKING PROUD! "Oh well, I guess we will be off. Bye Bye." A black mist surrounded them and they vanished. I was so mad. I fell to my knees and screamed in rage at the sky.
"I'M GONNA KILL THEM ALL!" I screamed. Tears of rage fell down my face, followed by tears of sorrow. He was right...I am weak... When he mentioned my mother...he got to me. I got up on my feet again. I felt a tug on my tunic. I looked back at my friends. I then looked to the former alicorns.
"Link..." Celestia said. "If I still had my powers, I would show you everything. But you need to calm down. You need to learn how to fight...without using rage, and for others instead of yourself. Twilight...get The Scroll from the library."
"T-The Scroll, as in The Scroll?" She looked excited.
"Yes...now go. Get it...quickly!" Twilight booked (No pun intended) it to the library. She came back with a scroll and she opened it and began reading it to herself. Her horn lit up and she shot magic at me. I felt magic flow through me and I started getting images of swords play. I felt like I could do them. Some of them just like the hidden skills from Twilight Princess. "You now have the power of the sword at your will. Use it wisely."
I smiled a little. "Thanks."
"I think it is time you head home." Celestia said. "Rest up. We will call upon you when you are needed Link." I nodded and headed out to the train.
