Centreus groaned as he woke up .it has been 2 days after he got captured and put in jail. He rubbed his eye and yawned . A royal guard came by and opened the cell.
"Come on centreus, you are about to get judged." He said.
Centreus stood up slowly and limped out . He was still weak but he could stand up now. He would fall a few times before the guards finished dragging him and that's what happened. He then got dragged to the throne room, where celestia and luna were. He looked at them, holding a hoof on his eye. The guards slowly put him down.
Celestia looked at him, but he looks away.
"get a doctor." Luna said. Celestia looked at her. The guard nodded and went to get a doctor. Centreus looked at her too.
"Who would care about my injuries now... now that I am myself..."he said, as he looked away ,sighing.
"We do... we care about everypony's health, even if it's a criminal." Luna assured...
Criminal... that's one of the words he would be remembered... criminal, monster, fugitive...
"What happened exactly." Asked celestia.
He took a deep breath
"I... got blasted while saving princess twilight sparkle... twice" he said.
"By who?" Both asked.
"The princess herself..." the doctor came in and starts to attend all of his wounds. He changed the chest bandages and put a bandage around his eye. The princesses looked at him confused. Ryan enters and bows, knowing they have been waiting for him.
Centreus judgement has been finished after he tried to say he's inocent. Celestia nor luna believed him and he got taken to the base again by princess luna herself. Centreus didnt said anything apart of answering luna's questions. She has been asking him questions about twilight rescue as he answers them all. After they arrived, centreus got down with the help of luna and taken to his cell. Luna then left back to canterlot and ryan looked at him.
"Useless alicorn... she doesn't really care about you, you piece of shit. "Ryan said, walking off. He then came back with a guard and dragged him to a room and got on a table. They tied him down tight upside down and ryan horn glowed as an axe appeared. He knew that he had to use a magic axe,because a normal axe wouldn't even make a cut. Immortal alicorns could only get hurt by magic creatures, like a timberwolf, nature, magic, and weapons by magic.
Ryan ,with a swift move of his axe, cut off centreus wing as he screamed in pain.
"I have never been so happy to do this!" Ryan shouted. He then laughed maniacally and cut off the other. Blood was everywhere. On ryan's coat, his axe, on the floor, everywhere inside the room. Centreus screamed more as ryan cut off his horn.
"Now nopony will stop me from ruling the world! " ryan shouted. Centreus has stopped screaming and was crying instead..
"Don't cry... your suffering will last only a few hours... " Ryan said, Walking out. The guard then untied centreus ,bandaged him and dragged him back to his cell. Centreus was crying. He wanted to be with spike ...
"Come on you useless al. " the guard mocked. Centreus woke up , groaning and he stood up and limped out. The guard pushed him from time to time as they walked out. Centreus eye narrowed when he saw what was about to happen...
"Like the guillotine I just build? " Ryan said. He was now an alicorn, he should had used a spell to be one. " I made it just for you. Hope you like it." He then walked inside as centreus was tied up in the guillotine . It was the end... it really was. He closed his eyes and dropped his head, not noticing that something was closing in fast.
"Centreus!!!!!!"a distant voice shouted. The guillotine knife dropped as the voice was getting closer.
"Centreus!!!!!" It repeated. Just about when the knife was about to hit centreus, something crashed into it as it fell in front of him. He opened his eye startled as he saw the huge knife in front of him. He looked up as he saw twilight arriving with the mane six. Spike held his hoof
"I'm here.. I'm here" he said. Centreus let go a relieving smile.
"You almost came late. I'm glad y'all are here. " He admitted. Spike hugged him . Spike then melted the lock and freed centreus. He grabbed spike and put him on his back.
"We need to go." Twilight said. Centreus looked at the guards coming from behind.
"I have to get something. "Centreus said. "Wait for us on the entrance . " centreus said as he ran inside. Twilight nodded and got the mane six to the entrance , where they started beating up guards.
"Where are we going centreus?" Spike said.
"To get ,my wings and horn back." He answered. He entered the room and grabbed a bag and put his stuff in it. He then gave it to spike and ran out. As they ran through the hallway, centreus gets tackled as they both fall.
"You arent going anywhere. Useless al." Ryan said. Centreus shakes his head and stands up.
"Go to the entrance spike. I will meet you there. " centreus said as he tackled ryan to the wall and breaking through. Spike ran off, and met up with the girls.
"Where's centreus?" Pinkie asked. Spike was about to say something but a wall breaking sound answered for him. Spike turned and saw centreus fly down the street. They started galloping as fast as they could.
"Not again." Spike said. He reached centreus and helped him stand up.
"Centreus!!!!" Ryan said as he charged at him. Twilight's horn glowed as a huge baseball bat appeared and batted him away from them. Centreus held a hoof on his chest as it bleeded.
"You are bleeding..." rainbow said. Centreus was breathing heavily.
"I...im... ok.." he said.
"No you aren't. "Twilight said.
A beam was shot at them as Twilight used a barrier, but the beam broke it and exploded where they were.
"It's over. "Ryan said. He waited to see the bodies on the floor after the dust lowered.
"Not it isnt. " a voice in the dust said. He didn't had time to react when he got blasted again... this time by princess celestia
The mane six, centreus and spike were behind a wall, with princess luna.
"Are you all ok?" Luna asked. They stood up and nodded, even centreus . He wasn't looking ok . Luna was about to say something but celestia called her as she flew to help. Centreus looked at the battle going on.
"Well princess celestia and luna. You both surprise me but you won't be winning this fight anytime soon. I'm way powerful than you both." Ryan said . The princesses were then grabbed by his magic and smashed to the floor a couple times . The mane six were looking at it as they gasped.
"Twilight... throw me ... as fast... as your magic can..." centreus said.
"Where?" She asked..
"To ryan. But in a angle that takes us both out ... from the world."
"Thats a one way trip, centreus, how you will survive?" Applejack said.
"I won't... there's a very low percent that I do..."
"Centreus....you don't have to do it. "Pinkie said.
"Well... it's that or him killing the princesses and who knows, he will look for us and then kill us. You all came here to save me, now I am here to save you and your princesses. You gave me a reason to live and to die for. "He then hugs them. "You 7 are the best friend's I ever had.." tears fall from his face, the rest hugs back also crying as he gets levitated .
"Have a good trip, cowboy." Applejack said. He nods as twilight throws him to ryan. He breathes fire as he turns on red and blue swirling fire. Ryan doesn't has time to react as he gets tackled.
"Let's have a field trip "
"Lets me go centreus!" Ryan shouted. "I'm burning!!!!!"
"Yes you are. And I think this isn't yours." Centreus said as he cut off ryan's horn with his claws.
"You bitch!"He shouted from pain. "You are going to pay for this! "
"No... I already payed for this. I'm just bringing the merchandise I bought for you. " centreus said . Close to the atmosphere, centreus bucks him off to space as ryan floats off .
"Centreus!!!!!!!!" He said , before two asteroids squished him. Centreus chuckled. He sure gave the merchandise and a extra.
"Celestia! Luna!" Twilight shouted, running to where they were. Celestia and luna then stood up slowly.
"We ....we are fine... but ...where's ryan." Luna asked.
"Centreus took him to space. We don't know where they are now tho..." Spike said.
They then saw something burning , falling. Twilight took flight to try and catch it but she failed. It crashed right in front of them. They gasped when the fire faded away. Centreus was there, smoke coming from him, proof that he was on fire but he didn't looked burned. spike shaked him, hoping he opened his eye. His heart beat: nothing .
"Centreus.... wake up.. please.. wake up... wake up bud..." Spike said. Crying.
"No... "Twilight said Shaking him.
"Centreus... please... come back... " Spike repeated.
"He must go to a hospital." Luna said. twilight nodded crying.
"It's all my fault. I shouldn't had shot him... we wouldn't be here ..."
Celestia horn glowed as she levitated apple jack and rarity, luna levitated spike and pinkie , and twilight levitated centreus. Rainbow and Flutters stayed besides twilight. They all then went to ponyville's hospital, hoping centreus woke up in the way there...
"Where am i?" Centreus said. He was walking in a very white place. He didn't noticed that he didn't had any Injury.
"Centreus?" A white pony asked. He turned around and looked at it. His eyes got watery as he ran toward him and hugged him.
"Dad!" He said. The pony hugged back.
"Centreus..." he hugged tight .
"Where are we... am I dead?"
"Yes..."
those three letters made centreus cry. His father, light scheme , comforted him.
"I'm so proud of you..." light scheme said.
"Why... because I'm here with you?"
"By the reason you are here .."
"But...I .... they ... "
"You died saving the princesses, you died to save everypony from ryan. He wanted to rule the world... he must had told you... you saved your friends and the princesses. You saved equestria from destruction."
Centreus sighs . He didn't saw it like that. He didn't't wanted twilight lose her teacher or her teacher's sister. He though she prefers losing him than losing them...
"I didn't do it for me..."
"I know. That's why I'm more proud of you, and you deserve something else for your bravery. I will be seeing you soon again, centreus." Light scheme said. He then poked centreus chest as he hugged his son a last time, as centreus disappeared from there.
"Centreus... please... give a sign that you are alive..."
Spike was holding centreus hoof as his heart sensor was still flat.
"Centreus... please..." Spike started crying again.
Centreus claw moves a little.
"Ugh...w...where am i..." centreus said. He opened an eye and blinked a few times before he could recognize where he was. Spike then hugged him , crying.
"Centreus ! You scared me!" Spike said. Centreus hugged after some seconds. He was alive. He was back with spike...
"Oh spike... the big, scary dragon of equestria is here with me. I'm glad you are here . " He smiled .spike giggled and hugged him carefully
