Chapters SHELTER | NIGHT TIME
Aiden woke up from his dream. He was dreaming of him back in Chicago. Is that how much he missed Chicago already? The night sky was passing through the window's, giving in some light. Everyone else was asleep. He looked in his pocket. There it is! His phone! He unlocked the code, and looked at the apps. Music, Car dealership, And the CTos program. He opened the CTos app, and was shocked to see what he saw. There were connections around the whole area. From what he saw, this place was still in the medieval ages. He decided he would check on it tomorrow. He put his phone away, and went back to sleep.
SHELTER | DAY TIME
Aiden was waken up by one of the Guard Ponies.
"Come with me. The Princess will see you immediately." Aiden got up and grabbed his AR-15, And slowly followed the Stallion. They followed through the Canterlot hall's, and entered into a room. The Pony that he had seen earlier, the one that had let him in, was sitting on a throne with another Pony almost looking exactly the same as her. But looked Younger, and had a blue tint on her mane, and on her body.
"Princess. Here he is." The Guard said as he backed off, and outside the room.
"We would like you to meet a couple of guests, and my friends.." The older Princess said, as a few figures walked into the room.
"This is, Twilight Sparkle, Pinkie Pie, Apple Jack, Rarity, Fluttershy, And Rainbow Dash." She pointed her hoof at each of them, signifying who was who. Aiden looked at each of them. Their names were odd, And so were their colors. Suddenly, a beep came from his phone. He pulled out his phone and looked at it. A notification from the CTos app. He opened it up, and there were new signals. He looked up. The signal's were coming straight from the Princesses, and Two of the Ponies in front of him. The White one, and the Purple one.. What the hell? ..
"Twilight, he will need a place to stay. I want you to take him."
"B-But Pri-" She was cut off.
"Do not question it. Your the only one capable of taking such task. I have to many thing's to deal with anyway. The queen may attack again."
"Alright.." Twilight said boringly. She didn't want to take 'Care' Of Aiden, Or whatever he was.
"Follow me." Aiden followed her and the group. As Twilight was walking with him, the other's asked him questions.
"So. What're you?" Rainbow Dash asked him.
"A Human..."
"What's your name?" She asked another question again.
"Aiden. Pierce."
"What was that thing you took out?" Rarity had asked.
"A Phone..."
2 HOURS LATER
"-So you went after him?" Aiden shook his head.
"We're here." Twilight said as she opened the door to the Tree house. Aiden was relieved that they had finally made it. So many question's he had to answer. He was tired of talking, and his jaw was sore. Twilight, Aiden, And the rest entered the house.
"The rest of you can go home, I'm going to bed. All that walking made me tired." She said as she used her magic to take one of the book's from a shelf. Right when she had done that, a Notification went off on his phone. He pulled it out again. Another CTos notification. Twilight looked at Aiden, The book levitating next to her. He opened up the app and the signal lined up to Twilight. He clicked the button, and the book fell to the floor. Twilight jumped a little.
"H-Hey!" She yelled at Aiden. She picked up the book again, and went into one of the rooms. What the fuck? I can turn off their magic? The wheel's turned in his head. Oooh that would be fun with a blackout.. He said to himself, laughing at the remark. The thoughts than ran threw his mind were different. In his mind, it was basically control of all the ponies in the world! That had magic, of course. It was a whole new playground for him.
"Do you mind telling me where i'm going to sleep!?"
"O-Oh, sorry about that. I have a spare bed in my bedroom!"
"N-No, its fine!"
"I Insist!" Twilight opened the door, pulling him inside.
"Alright, alright." Twilight went to her bed, turned off the light, and snuggled inside the bed. "Goodnight!"
"Yeah, goodnight.." He said in a dull voice. He climbed into the bed, waiting for her to fall asleep. About 10 minutes later, she was fast asleep. He got up out of the bed. The best ways to look around town was at night. He opened the door slowly, making a creaking sound, and closing it slowly as well, trying not to awake Twilight. He turned to look at the stairs, and walked down them.
"What're you doing?!" He heard a whisper from behind him, upstairs. He slowly turned around. A small dragon, or that's what it looked like, was talking to him. He was kind of startled by this, but remained calm.
"Before I answer your question, who are you..?"
"I'm Spike! A dragon!" He said proudly, as if it were some kind of achievement.
"Well, Spike, i'm taking a walk outside." He said. He grabbed his bandanna and covered his mouth, slightly concealing is identity.
"May I go with you?"
"What?"
"W-well, i'm pretty bored. And since you're new here, I thought i'd give you some tips and stuff, you know?"
"I guess that would, be good. But when we're walking, you better stay absolutely silent."
"Alright." He continued to walk down the steps. Almost tripping over a small book on the floor.
"I forgot to get that one, heh, sorry.." He didn't look at Spike, he just kept on going towards the door. He opened the front door, and headed outside. Thankfully, the moon gave in some light. He could see now without straining his eyes. When he and Spike were outside, he pulled out his Spec Ops 1911, and keeping it gripped in his hand.
"I don't care how safe everyone say's it is, I'm not taking risks."
Author's Note
I have finished this chapter finally. There was a bug with Fimfictions writing thing, and it wouldn't let me post it. I don't know for what reason. And my Pink Eye is gone! YAAAY!
I was listening to
When I wrote this.
They started down a stone path. Not many ponies were out, but some were.
"Twilight isn't used to having people she doesn't know stay at her house."
"Would anyone?" Aiden questioned.
"Well, no.. And Twilight, well, has been alone for these few days. She's been avoiding her friends."
"Why..?"
"I couldn't really tell you, She just stopped hanging out with them for awhile. Everytime I ask her, she would just say its personal." When Spike said this, Aiden's mind thought about his niece. After that incident, he stayed away from everyone else, and became the Vigilante.. A Pony passed by them. The mare stared at them as she walked by. Aiden glared at her.
"So. What do you do? I-I mean, when you were at your world?" Aiden smiled.
"I don't do anything. Well, technically I don't. I'm a ghost in my world." Spike looked at him in confusion. He didn't really know what he was getting at, but he knew it must've meant something. The path that they headed down started getting more populated, and he heard music in the distance.
"Someones having a party." Aiden said. His voice was a bit muffled to the cloth over his mouth and nose.
"You want to go?" Spike asked him.
"The last thing I want is to go to a party with a bunch of people who don't even know I exist. They'll freak out."
"True. True. Oh, I forgot to ask you. What is that your holding?" He referred to his S.O.1911. Aiden raised it into view.
"It's a weapon. It shoots a Caliber.45. It's also silenced, so you can't really hear it." Spike stepped a bit back, and his voice started to get a bit scared and choked up.
"Y-You mean, it could kill Ponies?"
"Possibly.. H-Hey, look. I'm not going to use it unless i'm forced to." Spike wiped away his sweat, and exhaled.
"Phew." Spike looked at him. "N-No, I wasn't scared or anything, I j-just wanted to know!"
"Right." Aiden said in a sarcastic voice. He normally never talked like this. And maybe since he knew that this place looked a little more lively, and peaceful, he didn't really mind talking. A pony from down the path, swurving around, with a bottle in his hand, walked towards them. The pony finally got into view.
"H-Hey!" *Hiccup* "Y-You should come to the party you know..?" He talked to Spike, then looked at Aiden. "W-Woah, who died..?" He said. He was referring to Aiden's sad look. But Aiden took it another way. Aiden took a step towards the stallion, and took his baton out. He extended it, and thrashed towards the stallions jaw. It connected with his jaw, and he stepped back. Aiden again, thrashed it upwards towards the bottom of his jaw. The stallion fell to the ground. Spike backed away.
"Don't. Test me." Aiden yelled. Some other ponies in the distance saw what was going on, and ran back to the party, screaming.
"U-Uhm. W-We might want to run!" Spike yelled to Aiden.
"Why?"
"Look towards you!" Aiden lifted his head, to see guard's from the party run toward's him. With wooden sticks wielded in magic.
"Well shit." Aiden said as he started running with Spike. The stallions ran pretty fast, but weren't as fast as Aiden. Aiden saw an ally way and took a turn into it. The guards took the same path, only to be led to a dead end. And Aiden was no where to be found. A small Sticky note could be found on the wall. One of the guard's went up to it and read it outloud.
"Ded-Sec."
PonyVille Library/Twilight House
Spike entered the doorway, and closed the door. It was almost morning, and he was tired, trying to look were Aiden disappeared off into. He went off into Twilight room. He opened the door, and saw two beds, and two figures. One figure was in one bed, a pony shaped figure. Twilight. And another figure in the other bed. Bipedal shaped. Aiden. Spike was confused. How did he make it here? He stopped worrying, and went off into his small tiny bed, and drifted off to sleep.
PonyVille Library/Twilight House
Aiden slowly got up, stretching his limbs. He yawned in the process. He stood up, and look towards Spike, laying in his bed. He kicked it, waking him up.
"You ready for another walk..?" He whispered. "It doesn't seem like we finished our last one."
"Alright. Fine.." Spike said as he got up out of his tiny sized bed. Aiden headed towards the door.
"Where are you two going?.." He heard a female voice from behind. Twilight had woken up.
"Me and Spike were just going for a walk.."
"May I come with?" Aiden and Spike looked at each other. "Sure." Aiden said. What could go wrong? He opened the door, and went towards the front door. He opened the front door, and a guard was there. One of the guards from the castle.
"Exc--" Aiden shut the door on his face. He looked towards Spike.
"God damnit, you know those guys from before?"
"Yeah?"
"Look's like the called the so called 'Police'.."
"What!?" Twilight said. "W-Wait. What happened?"
"Well, Me and h--"
"I want Him to answer for himself Spike." She glared at Aiden. He glared back.
"I got into a fight." He lied. Well, sort of a lie. It wasn't a fight, since the other person didn't stand a chance.
"AIDEN!" She yelled towards him. "I'M SUPPOSED TO MAKE SURE YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO GET INTO ANY TROUBLE!"
"HE BROUGHT UP SOMETHING PERSONAL!" He yelled back. His face expression changed. Tears formed into his eyes. He never broke down like this before. He fell to his knee's and put both of his hands on the ground.
"YOU HAVE NO CLUE WHAT ITS LIKE TO HAVE SOMEONE CLOSE TO YOU, JUST DIE!" He was right, She didn't. Rarely anyone died in Ponyville. Only natural causes. That's the only reason most of them were in the hospital, other incidents were rare occurrences of theft or a fight.. A loud bang came from the door.
"Open the door!" A stallions voice yelled. Twilight went towards the door, and opened it a bit, peeking her head out.
"Uhm, I'm sorry, can you wait just a bit longer? S-something came up." She said as she closed the door. She looked back at Aiden, who was on the floor still, practically weeping. His phone beeped several times. More magical ponies were in the area. He didn't care at the moment.
"I-I'm sorry Aiden. I didn't know.." She said in a regretful voice and tone. She didn't know it could effect a pony, or anyone for that matter, this much. She would most likely never know the experience and the depth of how it feels. It was sad to see someone else be brought down in this state from such a loss. Whistling could be heard from outside. Twilight looked outside her window. She saw her brother, Shining Armor, and a few other soldiers.
"Why are they here?" She turned around to Aiden, who recovered from the crying.
"Who?" Aiden asked her.
"My brother, and more guards are here.." Aiden thought for a second.
"They might be coming to put me in jail.."
"AIDEN! Don't think such a thing! My brother would never do such a thing!" She said. More banging came from the door. She opened it again. Her brother was in the front door.
"BROTHER!" She yelled as she leaped towards him, Hugging him. He laughed."
"Twily! I'm glad to see you, but I have more interesting matters to discuss at hand." He saw behind her, Aiden, standing up with the cloth over his mouth and nose, covering his identity. His hat was lowered, and the gun in his hand. At the time, Shining didn't know what it was, so it didn't really matter to him.
"You!" He yelled, as he let go of Twilight. He stomped towards him. "YOU DARE HURT ONE OF MY CITIZENS OF THIS TOWN!?" Aiden's hand turned into a fist. He was so close to punching him in the face.
"Brother!" Twilight yelled from behind. "Why are you yelling at him?"
"He hurt one of the citizens! No one dares to do such a crime!"
"I'd gladly speak my part.." Aiden said in a deep, angry voice.
"FIRST, You'll be brought to the Canterlot castle for further viewing!"
"Fine by me.." Aiden said, his hands up sarcastically as if trying to surrender.
"My men are too tired from flying the carriage, so we will be walking to the castle!" Aiden looked at Spike, who tugged at his pants.
"This is gonna be a long walk.." Spike said to him.

FOLLOWING PATH
During while they were walking in the path, Shining Armor wanted his guards to cuff Aiden. Aiden didn't like the sound of it, and smacked one in the face with his baton. The guard stepped back, putting his hoof on the spot on the face that got hit. It left a red mark.
"Don't.." Thats all Aiden said, and they never bothered him again during the walk. At times Spike would look at Aiden in a worried expression. Spike actually did like Aiden as a friend. He was different, and mysterious. You never would really know his weak points, because he never showed his feelings towards anything but his niece.
ARRIVING THRONE ROOM
They made it to the castle about ten, twenty minutes ago. They took the rest of the time walking through the giant castle looking for the Throne room. They finally found it. Aiden noticed new markings on the doors. Sort of like a skull, distorted, and grey. It looked familiar, but he couldn't match it with anything in his mind. Maybe later he would realize of what it was. The guards stopped at both sides of the door.
"Enter the room, and listen to what the Princess tells you to do." Aiden did as he was told. He opened the door, and the room was bright. Brighter than outside. It seemed as if it was recently cleaned. There were also two guards on each sides of the door inside the room as well. He looked at them with an angry look. They didn't do anything, but stare in one direction. Celestia cleared her throat to get his attention.
"Aiden. We have been informed that you have caused some.. Disruption, in ponyville. Is that correct?"
"In a way, yes, I guess I did."
"Well, you have to know that we do not tolerate that. Any acts of crimes in Ponyville or in any area, will be punished with being thrown in the dungeon. Do you see where I am going with this..?" Aiden grinned.
"Yes. I guess I do."
"Since you have recently hurt an innocent bystander, you will see to about, a month in the dungeon." Aiden looked up. Just for fighting? A month?! Apparently crimes like this were rare. He could only wonder if he killed the Stallion. Then something popped in his head. Since these occurrences were so rare, then they don't have any kind of police, security, or anything like that unless you have guards protecting a certain area. That means if someone were to kill another pony, they wouldn't ever get caught.
"Guards. Cuff him." The two guards near the door stepped up with cuffs. They started to walk towards him.
"But Princess! H-" Twilight was cut off.
"Ssshhh. You have no say in this. I will not have anyone hurt any of my subjects." The guards were right beside him, holding cuffs in their magic.
"Let me tell you one thing. You don't, EVER, Mess with the vigilante.."
"What?" Celestia was confused. Aiden then quickly sprinted backwards and pulled out his S.O.1911, and his phone. He started running down one of the halls. Guards from all over started to run after him. He took a sharp left and almost ran into one of the guards. Instead, he slid under him, and knocked out his legs with his baton, and began running again. He saw a big door, and slammed into it. He closed it. He saw a board next to a wall, and slid it through the door handles. The room looked like it was being redone, but only the wall. The whole room was painted dark blue, with stars. On the ceiling, was a big moon.
"Who thy' shall enter my room without permission!?" He heard coming from another room, connected to the room he was inside. At first he thought it was a bathroom, but he got a glimpse inside it, it more looked like a spa. A Personal spa room. A blue mare, with air flowing hair stepped out. It was the one from before, after the incident with the foals. She froze in position. Her body glistened from the water, since she just got out of the Spa, and was going to get a towel. Aiden froze as well, in place, holding out his phone and gun. This was awkward not only for him, but her as well. Then her face was confused.
"Wait, you're that person that hurt that innocent bystander, are you not?"
"Technically, I had a reason. But if you want to call me guilty, go ahead."
"Hmm. What was the reason may I ask?"
"Well. Mind if I sit first?"
"Oh, yes. Sit down on the bed, there's nothing else to sit on besides that. The room is being redone."
"I can see that." Aiden sat down on the soft bed. It was softer than Aiden thought, and it was comfortable in a way that he couldn't describe.
"Well. Lets see. This is what happened. A man sent a hit man, if you could actually call it that, to come kill me. I was driving my car, when my niece was in there with me. She was about five years old. The man who was sent to kill me, shot out one of my tires, and caused me to crash. Killing my niece in the process." Luna's face was a bit sad, and happy. As if she was sad for what he went through, and happy, to try to cheer him up.
"That's basically what happened."
"What does that have to do with hurting an innocent person..?"
"Well, he was drunk. And I took what he said in the wrong way. I went for a walk, and he confronted me. He was referring to my sad look when he said 'Woah, who died?'..."
"Oh. I could see how you could miss interperate that."
"But your, sister, sent guards after me. They were going to throw me in the dungeon for a month. So I ran. Hoping that I could go somewhere I could hide, or something, I went into this room. And, that's how I got here."
"Wait, my sister, tried to put you in the dungeon without letting you say your piece?!"
"Pretty much." Luna's voice became louder, louder, louder, and louder.
"NO ONE DARES TO TESTIFY A SUBJECT WITHOUT LETTING THEM SPEAK THEIR SIDE!" Aiden covered his ears. "O-Oh, i'm sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you. I just sometimes forget not to use the royal canterlot voice.." Aiden stopped covering his ears.
"I just don't even remember how I got into this mess. I just wake up, and i'm here. I never wanted to be here in the first place. And I think it was a bad move to run from the guards. Now I just made them even more angry, probably causing a bigger problem in the castle."
"That you did, but you are able to stay here for the time being!"
"Really?"
"Why not?" Luna smiled. "Besides, it's nice to have company once in awhile."
"But what about the guards?"
"They wont be able to get in. I can put a spell on the door's, that not even my sister can break."
"Hmm. Convenient. And this is why you don't mess with the vigilante."
"Who?" Luna asked him.
"O-Oh, nothing."
Author's Note
This isn't really the best chapter yet, and I rushed it A LOT. I RUSHED IT SO MUCH. SO. MUCH. But I wanted to get it all down, and i'll edit it later. Right now, I got a headache from all the hauling, and almost passed out when I wrote this. Well. I was listening to a bunch of songs, I don't even know which ones. Sorry! Next chapter I'll tell you which songs I was listening to!
QUEEN CHRYSALIS'S HIDEOUT
Aiden opened his eyes. His AR-15 sitting next to him. He sat up slowly. He grabbed his AR-15 and started to back up against a wall. He looked around the whole area. It was really dark in the area that he was in. Slowly, his eyes adjusted to the darkness. Finally, he was able to see. When he looked around, he saw a throne. A couple cages, with some colorful blob's inside them, and what looked like to be skeletons walking on fours.
Is this a digital trip? He asked himself. He took a step forward toward's one of the skeletal figures. The skeletal figure jumped back, and hissed. He looked around in confusion. The other skeletal creatures were also hissing. They started to move toward's him. In quick succession he aimed his AR-15 and put a bullet in one of the creature's head. The bullet went straight through, with it's head showing a distinct bullet hole through its head. The other's were still moving toward's him. He started firing upon those creatures as well. They went down quickly with a loud THUD. As they died off one by one, they hissed in pain, and screamed as they fell to the ground. The screeching noises were heart aching to Aiden. Finally, he had finished off the one's that were hissing at him. He could see some of the creature's off in a distance, but to far to know what was going on.
"Mister! Mister! Help us!" He heard from one of the cages. He looked to see what was making the noise. The colorful blob's that he saw in the cages were not just blob's, but exact figments of the creatures. With an actual fur coat though. They looked similar to horses. He slowly started to walk toward's the cage, hopefully not gaining attention from any other creature's that may be lurking around. He was up to the cages bars as he looked down to the small 'Horses'.
"They took us! They took us and other fillies as well! Please help us mister!"
"W-What are you?" Was his first question, ignoring what they had just said.
"We're ponies! We live in Ponyville!" Aiden physically Face-Palmed.
Please let this be a Digital Trip.. Please.. Aiden looked around the cage to see a lock. He aimed the AR-15 at the lock, and fired one bullet. The lock broke, and fell to the floor. The bullet made enough sound to attract other creature's.
"Mister! Follow me! I know where to go!" Aiden quickly ran with them, into the dark hallway's and with the skeletal being's behind them.
"How do you know the way out?"
"I was still awake when they brought me in, so I saw the whole place! Its creepy." Aiden silently agree'd. The hallway's were filled with bones, and sleeping creature's. With a green goo also sometimes appearing around the wall's.
"We should be pretty close to the entrance!" Aiden turned around for a couple seconds and sprayed his weapon until he heard a 'CLICK!' Sound. He holstered the weapon and ran faster. He was ahead of the ponies behind him. Instead of waiting for them, he picked them all up. An orange one, A white one, And Yellow one. He finally met the entrance, and skidded across the floor. He saw a cliff before him, and almost fell off. He turned around to see the creature's slowly approaching them.
"UUuuhhh..." He tried to think.
"GET READY!" He heard from above to see a chariot flying in the air. With ponies wearing Metal armor. They landed almost next to him. He put the Fillies down and looked at them. One of the armored ponies ran toward's him with a spear.
"NO!" The yellow filly jumped in front of Aiden.
"He saved us!" When she said those word's, the whole group of armored ponies gasped.
"Well alright, HURRY UP! GET IN!" The fillies and Aiden got into one of the Chariot's, as the guards stayed down to rescue the rest of the fillies.
CANTERLOT CASTLE
When they arrived at the castle, they were all checked and scanned just to make sure none of them were Changeling's. Or that's what Aiden had heard that's what the skeletal figures were called. When Aiden went to pass through, the guard's wouldn't let him pass.
"HALT! Only Ponies are aloud in!"
"Let him in." One of the other Ponies said as they walked toward's Aiden. It was white, and was almost as tall as him. It had Magical wavy hair flying in the air without a source. And with wings and a horn. Aiden stayed calm throughout the whole time though. The guard's had let him through finally.
"Follow me." The Pony said. Aiden simply followed her to what looked like a safety shelter. In the shelter, were the Fillies he had help rescued, and other fillies.
"They're being kept here for safe being, and to make sure none of them get hurt, and to treat wounds. You can stay here for now. You can talk to anyone you'd like. Although Ponies are not used to seeing anything like you, just be friendly.." She said as she walked out of the room. The room was filled with Fillies and their family members. This must be a digital trip. Aiden silently said to himself, not to sure of the thought. Without thinking, instead of taking a break, he went to go see the Fillies that he had rescued. He wanted to make sure they were okay. He didn't know what brought him to this though.
As he walked up to the three Fillies, what looked to be their family member's blockaded them. As if to keep them safe.
"What do ya' want?" An orange Pony said to him..
"Wanted to check on them. To see if they were okay." This kind of reminded him of his niece, except his niece died. These Fillies didn't.
"Well, Go somewhere else." A white Pony interrupted into the conversation.
"Alright.. Fine." He started to walk away. In the midst of walking away he heard :
"Mister!" He turned around to see the Yellow one poking its head under the Ponies legs. He waved. Since he didn't want to cause any trouble, he didn't go up to them. The parent's seemingly didn't like him at all. So he didn't want to cause any more trouble or stir anything up. He lay his head against one of the wall's, and sat down. He was kind of tired with all the running. He was exhausted. He silently fell asleep, closing his eyes one by one. Letting himself drift to sleep.
