Dressing up as Knights may sound cool at first, but when they're pulled into a world where Chivalry is a living art form and not dead, something tells them that they need to learn how to adapt and fast.

In Modern Society, many assume that Chivalry is dead. But for three friends, it's quite the opposite. When Kristine, Mallory, and Nicole decide to cosplay as some of the warriors from Fate/Stay and Fate/Extra, they thought it would be fun to purchase the weapons to go along with the costumes to complete their look. Turns out, it was a bad idea. A VERY bad idea. Now the three girls are asked to serve as bodyguards for two young princesses while learning how to control their powers and learn what it means to fight with honor. This is definitely not going to be easy.

Chapter 2: Unexpected Guess at the table

After what happen in streets of canterlot, a lot of ponies were wondering who those three creatures were, and how did they defeat almost half of Canterlots Royal guards. The ponies in Canterlot wanted answers, and they pretty much were not in the mood for little to no info on today’s event. Normally Celestia would just ignore the most of the royals and just make up some lie saying that Prince Blueblood did it, but then again using him as a scapegoat to escape most of her problems ended up not working. That is until Caster had an idea that surprised her friends. She suggest that this was all a practice test to try and increase the soldier moral. To everyone’s surprise one of Casters ideas actually worked.

“Ok hell must of frozen over, because Caster actually had a idea that really worked.” Said Gilgamesh walking down the hallway along with her friends, the princesses, and Shining Armor.

“This is not normal for you Caster, you sure you didn’t hit your head on something?” Asked Saber.

“Hey I can have good ideas too you know!” Yelled Caster stomping on the ground. “And for the record I stop hitting my head on stuff after I fell off my roof when I was ten.”

“Why would jump off of a roof?” Asked Luna.

“She bought a cape from a store, and thought she could fly.” Saber answered. “It didn’t end well when she busted her head onto the sidewalk.”

“Hey I turned out ok in the end right?”

“You ended having short term memory loss from time to time.” Said Gilgamesh.

“Oh please like you would believe what a doctor would say…..wait a minute weren’t we outside talking to ponies, and explaining who we are?” Asked Caster.

“Oh crap here we go again, Saber could you fill her in on what’s going on please?” Asked Gilgamesh.

“Why do I have to do it?”

“Cause I’m always the one to do it remember? Now please just do it.”

“Ugh, fine but next time you’re doing the whole recap memory thing.”

“Ok can someone tell me what the fuck is going on, and why are we inside the castle?” Caster asked, as Saber put an arm around her shoulder.

“It’s a long story sweetie.”

“Shining has Twilight and her friends arrive after the message I sent to her?” Asked Celestia.

“Yes they’re waiting in the hall of elements to meet you, along with the creatures Princess. But I still think allowing them in the castle is a bad idea.”

“I do wish you would relax Shining Armor, it’s not like they’re spies or anything.” She said pointing at the humans. “I mean do they look dangerous to you.” Shining Armor was looking at Caster, who was standing on Sabers shoulders trying to turn the head of a statue around.

“What the hell are you doing?” Asked Gilgamesh.

“This statue was looking at me funny, so I’m turning its head around.”

“....Ok you have a point, but I still don’t trust them.”

“You really need to lighten up, maybe after dinner you might feel better?”

“Maybe, let’s just get this over with.”

(Hall of Elements)

“How long do we have to wait for them to get here?” Asked Rainbow Dash tapping her hoof on the ground. “I mean it doesn’t take that long to get from wherever they are, to here right?”

“Yeah maybe it you flew or teleport, but unlike most ponies they prefer to take their time.” Said Rarity. “Why do you want to meet them anyway, didn’t you hear what ponies in canterlot said about these humans.”

“To take out half of the royal guards without even breaking a sweat, they sound like really scary humans if they were able to do that?” Said Fluttershy.

“Now sugarcube don’t judge a book by it’s cover, after all if Celestia thinks they’re ok then they can be that scary?” Said Applejack patting fluttershy’s head.

“I-I guess.”

“Yeah maybe they like to party!” Said Pinkie Pie. “Oh we should throw them a welcome to Equestria party!”

“Pinkie Pie I don’t think this is the time for a party, what I want to know is how can three humans take on an entire group of guards and still stand?” Said Twilight levitating a pen and paper. “The only humans that I know of are the ones in the mirror at home, and none of them can do anything Celestia told me in the letter she sent me.”

“Why don’t you asked them after dinner?” Said Spike.

“Or you could always ask her.” Pinkie Pie pointed at Caster who was behind Twilight & Rarity. This caused the two to jump back a bit from the human in surprise.

“Hello mortals. Did someone wanted to ask me a question or something?” Asked Caster.

“Where did you come from?” Asked Twilight.

“Well when a mommy & daddy love each other very much, they decided to-.”

“Not that! I’m asking how did you get here, right behind me?”

“Oh that? Fuck you that’s how.” She answered with an innocent smile on her face. Before Twilight could say anything, the doors the Hall of Elements opened up revealing a very tired and sweaty Shining Armor who was dragging himself towards Caster. “What took you guys so long?

“You ran off through the hallway and left us in the dust.” Saber answered. “You really need to stop doing that Caster.”

“What? I was tired of walking so I just teleport here.”

“No surprise there when you think about it.” Said Gilgamesh now turn her attention towards the six technicolor ponies stand in front of them. “Who are you guys?”

“Those are the wilders of the Elements of Harmony.” Said Celestia entering the room. “Protectors and heroes of Equestria.”

“Really now?” Gilgamesh look at the mane six up and down evaluating Celestia’s so called “heroes.” “They don’t look like heroes to me.”

“What did you just say punk?” Said Rainbow Dash getting up into the Archers face. “Are you calling us weak or something?”

“And what if I am you rainbow color dyke, what are you gonna do about it?”

“Oh you are so dead!” Rainbow Dash was about to punch Gilgamesh in the face. But was stopped a lavender color aura covering her entire body.

“Rainbow Dash we are here to get to know the humans, not start a fight with them.” Said Twilight.

“Hey she started it!”

“Well I’m ending it.” She said levitating Rainbow Dash next to her. “And you. I would prefer if you don’t provoke my friend.”

“Not my fault your friend has a bad temper problem. I wouldn’t be surprise if she was taking anger management classes.”

“HEY!” Yelled Rainbow Dash flipping her the finger.

“Anyway care to explain who you six are?”

“My name is Twilight sparkle, Princess of friendship.” She said as she motion to her friends to introduce themselves.

“The names Rainbow Dash, fastest flyer in all of Equestria and the element of loyalty.”

“I’m Applejack, Apple farmer at Sweet Apple Acres and element of honesty.” She said extending her hand to shake the humans hand.

“Pleasure to meet you.” Gilgamesh said returning the handshake.

“My name is Rarity, owner of carousel boutique and element of generosity.” She said as she eyed the humans outfit. “And I must say your outfits are simply divine.” Just Rarity finish introducing herself a pink blur appeared right in front of the three servants.

“HimynameisPinkiePieandI’mponyvillessuperduperpartyponyandtheelementoflaughteranddoyoulikepartiesIlikepartieswowyoulookshinyareyo-.”

Gilgamesh placed a finger to Pinkie Pies mouth, then turn her attention at Caster. “Caster can you translate for me please.”

“*Ahem!* Hi! My name is Pinkie Pie. I’m Ponyville’s super duper party pony, and the element of laughter. Do you like parties I like parties, wow you look shiny.” Caster said copying Pinkies voice.

“Wow nopony has ever been able to understand what I’m saying at times.”

“That’s because we’re not ponies, my pink little friend.” Caster said pinching Pinkie Pies cheeks.

“Hey we introduced ourselves, so why don’t you introduce yourselves?” Said Rainbow Dash.

“Fine you technicolor dyke, My name is Gilgamesh King of Heroes.”

“Saber King of knights, and before say anything I prefer the title king better the Queen or Princess.”

“And I’m Tamamo-no-Mae, but you can call me Caster for short. And were Servants of the Holy Grail.”

“These are the one’s that beat an entire royal guards? I find it hard to believe that.” Said Rainbow Dash. “I mean really I bet they paid those ponies off just so they can look good in front of the princesses.”

“Figures that an uncultured mongrel would think of that.” Said Gilgamesh which caused Rainbow Dash to be up in her face again.

“Who are you calling a mongrel goldie!?”

“Who are you calling goldie mongrel!?”

“Oh that’s a good nickname for Gilgy, don’t you think Caster?”

“I don’t know Pinkie I kinda like Gilgy as a nickname.”

“You two are not helping.” Said Saber “And you two stop acting like children, honestly you’re suppose be adults.”

“Indeed something like this is very unlady like.” Rarity agreed. “Now you both should apologies to each other and be friends.” At first they were hesitant to shake hands and make up, but with a few disappointed looks from each of their friends they ended up shaking hands and making up. “There now was that hard to do?”

“Maybe.” They said in union.

“Ok, I think we should get ready for dinner. During that time I think it would be a good time to ask our guest some question.” Said Celestia. “If you three don’t mind that is?”

“Oh we don’t mind asking any questions you guys have, right girls?” Caster asked.

“Sure why not.” Saber answered.

“I guess I could answer a few questions.” Answered Gilgamesh.

(Moments later)

“So let me get this straight,” Said Twilight writing down some notes. “You’re not from the mirror world I went through?”

“Yes for the last time we’re not from the mirror world!” Yelled Gilgamesh rubbing her head from the headache she has. “How hard is it to tell the difference? We don’t look like a bunch of technicolor people.”

“But I still don’t understand. How can you humans use magic, but other humans can’t?”

“I don’t fucking know! God all I know is that Caster bought us the weapons, and then the next thing we know we’re in world full of magical talking ponies.”

“But how can that-.”

“Oh fuck it. Caster can sum it up for me for her please?”

“Sure thing Gilgy.” Caster said after swallowing her food. “It’s magic bitch.”

“Yeah Twilight it’s magic silly.” Pinkie Pie agreed.

“......You know what I’ll just classify it as odd, but I also have another question.”

“And what is your question?” Asked Saber.

“Your friend Caster said that you three are Servants? Who is this Holy Grail pony you serve?”

“I Believe I can answer that question mortal.” Said a mysterious voice. Everyone was wondering where the voice came from, and some of the guards were in battle stances because of it.

“Who said that?” Asked Twilight.

“I did.” Twilight looked behind to see what looked liked a statue but wasn’t right behind her. To what everyone could tell, it looked like one of the statues Discord would make if he was a twelve year-old. Then again even a twelve year-old would make something better.

“Who the pony feathers are you?” Asked Rainbow Dash.

“Oh right where are my manners.” The Grail said as he took a seat next to Caster and Pinkie Pie. “I am the Holy Grail, the god like being that created the Holy Grail War and those idiots master.”

“Hey! The only idiot out of us is Caster, and she’s the queen of the idiots.” Said Gilgamesh pointing at Caster.

“Still holding on to that title, I shot myself with a bebe gun in foot.” Caster said as she summoned a crown on top of her head.

“See.”

“Ok I guess one of you is an idiot, but before I lost track of anything.” Grail looked at Twilight. “To answer your questions Twilight. Servants are legendary heroes that died during their lifetime on earth, and are remember as heroes due to what they did that made them that. Weather it was for rebelling against an evil king, becoming a king with a holy weapon, being born as a god and taking the form of a human, etc, etc.”

“Wait does that means that if we die we’ll be legendary heroes ourselves?” Asked Rainbow Dash.

“Well all eight of you already proven to be hero quality, so yeah pretty much.”

“Sweet! In your face goldie, we are heroes!”

“Oh great an eternity with you, this is gonna be hell on earth for me.” Said Gilgamesh rubbing her head. “So then grail why are you here?”

“Oh I’m just here to get to know the ponies of this world, and to teach you three on how to be knight’s when Celestia ask you to be her bodyguards.”

“.......What you say?” Said Shining Armor as he stopped eating after hearing that.

“I said Celestia wants to hire them as her and Lunas bodyguards. Isn’t that right Celestia?”

“Well it was suppose to be a secret, but seeing how you spilled the beans I guess I’ll have to tell them.” Celestia rose from her chair and looked at the three servants. “After what happened a few hours ago, I notice how strong you three are when you fought against the royal guards. And even though you were fighting them, you didn’t kill any of them even when some of them were. So I would like to ask you three a question?”

“And that would be?” Saber asked.

“Would you like to be Luna and my personal bodyguards?”

“WHAT!?” Said Everyone in the room besides the servants and Grail.

“Princess you can’t be serious about this.” Said Shining Armor. “I mean did you not see what they did to my men?”

“Yes I saw what they did, which is all the more reason why I want them.” Celestia then turn her attention towards the servants again. “Strength like yours is something that can be used for the great of good in this kingdom, and after what happen to ponyville a few weeks ago. We need somepony to help us in times of need.”

“Plus weird things keeps happening whenever we’re around you three, so this will give us action in our boring lives.” Luna said as she too stood up. “Also you’ll have your own quarters where the three of you can stay. So what do you say?”

There was a moment of silence as the three servants took a moment to make their decision. A minute or two later Saber and Gilgamesh looked at Caster and nodded. “We will love to be your bodyguards.” Caster said which brought a smile on the princesses faces.

“Perfect, then starting tomorrow you’ll be our bodyguard from this day forward!” Luna said using the royal canterlot voice, which cause everyone besides the Holy Grail to cover their ears.

“Luna your voice, you’re doing it again.” Said Celestia.

“Oh….Sorry.” Luna said blushing from using the royal canterlot voice. “We tend to forget to use are normal voice when we get excited.”

“That’s ok.” Said Saber. “No harm no foul”

“Anyway let us finish eating and be off to bed, tomorrow will be the start of your lesson in knighthood.” Said The Holy Grail as he vanished into thin air.

“Should I be worry about this?” Asked Gilgamesh.

“I dont think so.” Said Caster as she went back to eating.

“End of Chapter 2”

Chapter 3: Displaced Human 101

(A few days later after Celestia gave a grand tour of Canterlot Castle, and an introduction to the ponies inside. Our heroes begin their quick but informative 3 to 4 day lesson of knighthood and the multiverse.)

Morning

“Ok Grail why the hell did you call us here?” Gilgamesh asked. “Cause right now I’m a little bit angry that you woke me up from my sleep.”

“I called you three here because you’re gonna meet your first displaced human.”

“Displaced what?” Caster said wondering what the grail is talking about.

“Just like you three there are other humans that ended up buying something from the merchant. Be it an item or costume, the human that get said item end up in world full of magical talking ponies.”

“And you’re just telling us this know?” Said Saber.

“Well you never asked, anyway I found this gold token on the ground and figured you guys might want this.” The grail levitated the token at Gilgamesh who caught it in her hand. “Just be careful not to piss off any displaced humans, granted you’ll be revived if they kill you but I prefer not to the whole summoning thing.”

“Fine, it’s not like you were gonna help us anyway.” Gilgamesh tossed the token into the air to summon the displaced. “Hey whoever you are mind coming out here please?”

The coin erupted with light, opening a golden vortex in front of them. Out of it stepped a tall bear, with a coat of gold, and a black bowtie and hat.His eyes were closed and they could see his body was covered with various cuts, burns, and holes. He yawned and opened his eyes blearily. They got a glimpse of his eyes when he turned to look at them as the portal he arrived in sealed behind him. Both eyes were pitch black, seeming to draw in light rather than reflect it. One eye had a single white pinprick of light and the other had a white crack across where the light in the other eye would be. He spoke up as he stretched and exaggeratedly popped his back.

“Well alright gimme a sec, you just woke me up from a nap…”

“Greetings displaced human, I am the Holy Grail and I have summoned you here for you to inform my servants about the multiverse.”

The bear chuckled when he saw the object before him and then turned back to the girls with a large grin. It seemed he was fully awake now.

“Well alrighty! Okay whatever the three of you are named, welcome to...”

The bear snapped a paw and the three of them and himself teleported into a stereotypical looking classroom.

“Fazbear’s Multiverse 101 class! The way it works is here,”

He drew a circle with three smiley faces in it.

“Is your universe, with you three Displaced arriving to it. Displaced is short for ‘dimensionally misplaced’. It’s what we call ourselves, us humans who bought an item or items of some sort from beings like the merchant.”

He drew a guy with a big overcoat and swirly eyes.

“Guys like him go around Earth and all the parallel universes to it selling items to people usually at conventions or other occasions that lead to them being in a cosplay of some character. The item, or items, are/is related to the character’s/person’s costume and causes one of the following effects: A) big flash of light B) big swirly vortex portal C) unconsciousness or D) some other thing. After one of these effects hits a person, they wake up or find themselves in Equestria or more accurately a parallel universe of Equestria. Usually only one or one small group of Displaced get sent to a single Equestria, and when they find themselves there, baboom! They’re transformed into the character they were previously dressed as. As you can see I’m Golden Freddy from the ‘Five Nights At Freddy’s’ games. Each Displaced is different in power, from that they gained upon arrival, that they gain through learning and training, and from taking it if necessary. Of course now is my next point,”

Freddy erased the drawings off the board and drew a bunch of lined up circles in a grid, drawing three happy faces in each.

“The multiverse. For every Equestria and every displaced there is an infinite number of parallel worlds, usually you would never meet yourself except in rare cases such as me. I made the decision a while back since I’m the original me the ‘alpha’ if you will, to absorb and fuse with all the other me’s out there. A displaced can go between universes, usually though they lack the power to go through the void which is the darkness and emptiness between universes, by creating what is known as a token. You already have my own token thanks to that grail guy, and with that you can summon me up to make a deal with the devil/me if you want to call in a big favor. Sidebar btw, I take your world’s equivalent of the spirit Discord as payment and then do the big favor. Then you can call me for favors as a friend! Anyhoo, you can make a token by putting a little of yourself into an item or object. Mine is the golden coin as I said, but I also have these for examples.”

He took out two items, one a metal device of some sort and the other a bird-like hairclip. After they looked he put them back in his ribcage.

“You can summon other Displaced if you get their token, and you can send out your own token to give others the chance to summon you in turn. Usually displaced exchange tokens when they meet when they become friends or not if they become enemies. This scar on my eye was a cheapshot from some jackass I met a while back. But anyway. If you want I can show you how to make your own token/tokens. Based on if you wanna be summoned as a group or alone. Any questions?”

He gave them a grin.

“Yeah I’m wondering what you did to your Equestria?” Asked Caster.Freddy chuckled. He looked at her with a manic grin.

“Maddened slagpile! But before you start getting buthurt, I keep it all in my own Equestria. I won’t do anything to yours unless you start trying to fight me or something. You aren’t that stupid, right?”

He sent a pulse of magic and locked their bodies from moving other than their ability to speak.

“Relax Nick Furious we won’t do anything stupid, though I do think you might want your hat back from Caster.” Said Saber.

Freddy shrugged and released them, before going back to a cheery grin.

“Good! So why does that one have my hat?”

“Truth be told, she’s not that right head due to injuries during her childhood.” Said Gilgamesh. “Plus she fancies your hat cause it make her think she’s a wizard.”

“I can dream dammit!” Caster Yelled.

Freddy laughed and snapped his paw, his hat re-appearing on his head. He snapped his paw and took out a copy of it, scaled to better fit Caster’s head.

“I’m pretty sure the Holy Grail can help us with that, but mostly we’re just gonna be asking question. Like what’s your Celestia is like?” Asked Gilgamesh.

Freddy laughed.

“Pffft! Total buzzkill b-hole! I mean srs the first time I saw her she tried to kill me, and then traps me for a thousand years, and that’s the story of why I made everyone go insane!”

“Wow….You know if our Celestia heard this she would so want to bitch slap your Celestia.” Said Caster.

Freddy smiled at this.

“Well at least there’s a couple non-bitch Sunbutts out there. Still, it kinda occurs to me that other than the two princesses and the elements I didn’t really harm anypony…”

Freddy gained a blank look.

“Yeah what about the mane six in your world?” Asked Saber. “And Luna as well.”

“Well when Discord and I got out we started with the chaos, he kept the elements busy while I stoned Sunbutt. After that I went after three of the elements and tore them apart mind heart and soul. That may seem kinda random but they were Celestia’s little weapon for trying to kill me again so I made up my mind to make them no longer be threats to me, Of course Discord thought I went too far or some shit and went turncoat. So I killed him for betraying me.Then I met some other Displaceds, learned about the multiverse, fought some dudes got my eye messed up met a sith and then somewhere in there Moonpie showed up. And she was pissed off… Anyhoo, I turned her into Nightmare Moon again and made Parple, the element of magic of my world as I call her, completely intangible. She cannot be heard seen or felt by anyone other than myself, as punishment for her being a pain in my side. Yeah it’s been a busy two days since I got loose. Oh yeah, have a present.”

Freddy took out an element of loyalty, the gem faded to a deep brown/gold color.

“I stole them from the bearers before hand to mess with them. You can have this one, I think it’ll be better off out of my world completely so there’s no risk of them being used on me. I’m actually not sure if I’d be affected anymore, I’ve gotten a lot more powerful since the last time I got hit but I’d rather be cautious.”

“Sweet this could useful in case some idiot ties to destroy the element in our world.” Said Caster levitating the element into her hat. “Thanks.”

“So, what else you wanna know?”

Freddy asked, giving a smile to them.

“Hm...Have you ever heard of a person name Twice Piecemen?” Holy Grail asked.
Freddy shook his head.

“Nah. Oh yeah, guy who screwed my eye is named ‘Cory’ or something. Guy with brown hair, red eyes, and an Omnitrix ala Ben 10. And there’s Norse mythology shits in his world or something. Anyhoo the guy is a pretentious fuck about other Equestrias and how Displaced should be, so be careful with him. What next?”

“Hm can’t think of anything else at the moment, but would you like to see our worlds Celestia?” Asked Gilgamesh.

“No she’s just….well somewhat childish and does not like some of the royals in this city.”

Freddy chuckled.

“Hey I got no issues with childishness. Oh yeah, you wanna take my deal? I take your Discord and you get a big favor as payment?”

“No need the discord in this world is...well kinda scared of Celestia.” Said Saber.

Freddy shrugged.

“Alrighty. Well I still sorta want to punch him in the schnoz though. I’m kinda vengeful and the fucker betrayed me in my world so I’ve been taking Discords similar to mine and killin’ em. So, where to?”

“Well seeing how it’s 12:00 noon, this should be the time where Discord is running from Celestia after his one night stand thing that happen 1,000 years ago.” Said Gilgamesh. “We just pretty much just watch and place bets on if Discord is able to escape.”

Freddy gave them an evil grin and teleported them from the classroom he made and to a place to watch the two running. Freddy placed a banana peel beneath Discord as he ran past.

“Oh Faust somepony help me!!!” Yelled Discord running across the garden.

“Come back! Didn’t that night we slept together mean anything!? Said Celestia chasing after Discord with a nest in hoof.

“Oh hey they just started.” Said Gilgamesh.

Freddy snickered as Discord hit the banana peel.

“Always fall for the classic banana peel every time.” Said Caster video taping it on her cellphone.

“Got you now Discord!” Said Celestia as she tackled on top of him.

Discord looked to his left to see the four displaced humans as he asked for them to help him. “You there please help me, and I’ll give you whatever you want.” He said giving them the puppy dog look.

“We would, but I think this is between you and your one night lady friend.” Said Saber looking away.

“I would help, but Celestia told me not to help you.” Said Gilgamesh.

“And I won’t help because I’m too busy getting this all on tape.” Said Caster holding her phone.

“And I wouldn’t focus so much on others as the banana peel!” Freddy said with a grin.

Discord tripped on the banana peel, as he and Celestia are sent falling down a few flights of stairs and into the royal pool.

“Well that’s pretty much her in a nutshell in a way.” Said Saber. “I’m surprise Luna’s not here to stop her.”

“She still sleeping in her room remember, she’s more of a nighttime pony than a daytime one.” Said Caster.

“Yes she is, and she’s wondering what’s going on?” Said Luna appearing behind the humans with a coffee mug in her hand that says the moon rules, and a night robe around her. “Who’s your friend?”

Freddy gave her a happy smile.

“I’m a magical demon bear from another dimension!”

“Oh thank faust I thought you were that pedobear from my nightmares. Anyway what happened to you if you don’t mind me asking?” Luna asked.

Freddy shrugged.

“Eh I sorta drove the elements of harmony and you and your sister insane in my home dimension because they were trying to kill me. Oh, and did the same to Discord in my world for betraying me.”

“Huh...I believe the phrase “paybacks a bitch” would be used for something like that on our alternate selves huh?” Luna said taking a sip from her coffee “Then again it’s good thing we don’t use the elements to do stuff like that.”

“Well good. I sorta wish my Equestria was like this. Maybe I wouldn’t have decided to leave it as such a mess.”

“You’re welcome to stay here if you want, just don’t kill anybody faust knows how many papers we fill out if you do one of royal ponies.”

“Eh other than stoning my Celestia with a cockatrice I don’t really kill. Drive completely insane, sure. But I’ve only straight up killed a couple of Discords.And I’m afraid I cannot stay here as the asshat who screwed up my eye made some big deal about fixing my Equestria.”

Freddy suddenly had a leather jacket and a plastic Omnitrix appear on him and he spoke in a voice imitating Liam Neeson as the three recognized.

“I don’t know who you are. I don’t care what you want. But I will find you, and I will fix what you have done, and I will kill you”

Freddy guffawed and the items disappeared from him.

“Guy was a jackwipe.”

“....Ok you I’m starting to like.” Said Luna. “And again feel free to stay in Equestria as much as you want.”

Freddy smiled and held out a paw.

“Well thanks again. I don’t believe we’ve formally been introduced yet. I am self-knightedly Sir Freddy The Golden!”

He puffed out his chest as he shook Luna’s hoof.

“Charmed to me you Sir Freddy The Golden, I’m sure you pretty much know who I am?”

Freddy nodded.

“Then as an apology from the idiot versions of my sister and I, allow us to repair whatever it is you need done on you.”

Freddy smiled at this.

“Well the costume bits of me will regenerate over a little while, and my skeleton is unbreakable from what I’ve seen so far. The only bit of me that’s screwed up is my eye.”

“Then allow my other half to fix that problem.” Luna snapped her fingers to summon Nightmare moon who was wearing a steampunk outfit. “Moon could you repair our friends eye?”

“Hm...Hold still please if you don’t mind?” Moon asked as she pulled out a screw driver to fix the problem. “And….Done! How do you feel?”

Freddy summoned a mirror and looked at the alterations. A seemingly simple but effective mend, done with a lens placed over his eye with components entering the crack. It gave his eye an appearance of being like Nightmare’s but with an amber color. Freddy grinned.

“Like I got back half of my vision. Thanks for that! So, anything you want me to tell my Luna/Nightmare for ya?”

“Yes if you see my Luna version of myself, tell that’s she’s an idiot for wrongfully attack you from the start. Oh and also bitch slap her for me.” Said Luna pulling out a list. “Just something on my list that I never got the chance to do.”

“And if you see my Nightmare Moon version of myself, tell that the moon rules and try to separate herself from Luna.” Said Moon.

Freddy nodded.

“Can do. Well I best be going, come here you three I’ll teach you how to whip up tokens and send them off.”

The three servants walked up towards Freddy as instructed. “Ok.” They said in union. He ran them through the simple steps to crafting a token, and the three went through them. A keychain of her blade Excaliber for Saber, a paper talisman for caster, and a golden axe to summon Gilgamesh.

“Oh one more thing before you go.” Said Grail as he teleport toward Freddy. “Be on the look out for a person named Twice Piecemen.”

“Sure thing. Oh yeah you three, Grail’s got my token but here’s a couple new ones for each of you to call me up with. If you wanna hang or need a favor then lemme know and I’ll be happy to pop over.”

He handed the three new coins to them, these having a happy Fazbear face rather than than the standard crash screen face.

“We will thanks.” Said Saber.

“If you need help just give us a call, and I’ll help out.” Said Gilgamesh.

“Or if you want us to use our Noble Phantasm to help you fight someone.” Said Caster.

Freddy nodded and put the three tokens and placed them with the others he held inside his ribcage.

“Can do ladies! Well to send me back then just say ‘our contract is complete’ I can go on my own but it takes longer and takes energy out of me.”

“Oh I can fix that, after all I am classified as a god class.” With just a thought Grail open a portal back to Freddies world. “If you need a place to crash in case the head is on your tail, just call my servants and they’ll bring you here.”

“Well can do! Anyway, see ya round kids!”

Freddy hopped through the portal with a final wave.

Freddy stretched as he arrived to his home Equestria. Something seemed sorta… Different.

“Hmm.”

“I fixed your head and took out my influence as a favor to a friend. There’s ponies out there you can help, or not. I don’t care. Nightmare, you come with me. I actually want to keep track of you and tell you what a friend of mine is up to. Oh yeah.”

He planted a paw onto both of their heads, giving them his memories of the other world, but without the information on the elements of harmony.

“There you go. Luna one last thing.”

He lashed out and smacked her across the face.

“A pal told me to do that.”

He looked down to the confused, and younger Nightmare.

“Imma rename you…”

Freddy snapped his paw as he thought about it.

“Amalthea! One the moons of Jupiter from my homeworld. Well there you go Amalthea, Imma send you to get tutored!”

“Yo Caster tell Nightmare I’m sending her a student!”

A portal opened and Freddy waved her to it. Amalthea seemed more confused now. Freddy looked back at her.

“Kid trust me there’s a mare on the other side that’ll help ya. The new name is so you can make a new identity or something. Go on now!”

Freddy snapped his paw one last time and the small alicorn in front of him changed colors. Her mane hung like regular hair now but was now done in shades of red, and her coat was a deep gray. Her eyes were still slitted, and still the same cyan color. Freddy scribbled a note and taped it to her horn before she trotted through the portal.

“Hey Nighty I split ya up like I said. She’s kinda confused about herself now so I’m gonna let you teach her. No one can teach someone like themself after all. You can send her back after a while, unless she wants to stay over there.”

See you later,

Freddy smiled as the portal closed, and he brought the elements before him, those corrupted and not. Freddy had another decision to make after all this…

(Servants Equestria)

“Nice guy.” Said Caster. “You think he’ll bitch slap the other version of you Luna?” Before Luna could answer Caster question, a portal appeared in from of them. Out of the portal came a small teenage alicorn pony that had shades of red in her mane, her coat was deep gray, and her eyes had the same slit and color as Moons eyes.

“I think that answers your question Caster.” Said Gilgamesh as she hear a voice from Caster’s talisman.

“Yo Caster tell Nightmare I’m sending her a student!”

“Question little one?” Moon asked the little alicorn. “Are you me from a different world?” The alicorn nodded yes to Moon’s question. “Ok good now come along little me, we have much to talk, share, and learn about each other.” Moon levitated the little version of herself as they teleported off. As they did there was a note that was left sitting on the ground. Caster picked it up and started to read it.

“Hey Nighty I split ya up like I said. She’s kinda confused about herself now so I’m gonna let you teach her. No one can teach someone like themself after all. You can send her back after a while, unless she wants to stay over there.”

See you later,

-G_F

“Well it’s looks like we have a new friend to help out with huh?” Said Caster. “You think we should send him a thank you basket?”

“Might as well seeing how he did explain what displaced humans are.” Said Saber.

“Ok we’ll do that, but first let’s get Celestia off of Discord before something bad happens.”

“Agreed.” Said Saber as she ran off to get the sun princess off of Discord.

“This should be interesting.” Luna said as she teleport after Saber, Gilgamesh, Celestia, and Discord.

“....Oh well back to turning the heads on the statues around.” Said Caster as she walked of the who know’s where. As she did she decided to give Freddy a call by using the token he gave her and her friends. “Hey Freddy got your message.”

The coin glowed and his voice echoed out of it.

“Cool! Figured that’d be better than having her lookin’ round my chaotic mess of an Equestria. You’re good with this, right? Moon too?”

“Yeah we’re fine with it. Moon is talking to her alternate self right now as we speak. Question is it that bad over there?” Caster asked.

“Well a while back I popped Tartarus open like a bottle of champagne, though from what I’ve seen the stuff inside either stayed inside the place or just sorta went off to plan things. And all the stuff Discord did never got cleaned up at all so that’s still going on all over Equestria, maybe the world. And I think I’m the only thing regulating the sun and moon since I had to split Luna’s power in two to separate Amalthea and Sunbutt’s in stone. And you can tell after meeting me that that’s a terrible idea right there. I may try and fix it later or something, I don’t really know yet. It’s pretty funny to watch ponies freak out at the slightest stuff, especially since the majority of ponies weren’t mindfucked by me or Discord they’re flippin shit since there’s a scattering of crazed ponies.”

“Wow and people call me bad before I became a god, you know I could always come over and help out if you want to fix your world up?” Caster offered as she turn one of the statues head around. “I mean I know few spells that can make help out with the mindfucked ponies to make them think you’re a good guy and all. Maybe you unstone Celestia’s head and use her as target practice for throwing food at her?”

“Eh I’m still making up my mind. I can do that stuff myself but I’m still thinking over stuff. I’ll figure it out later…. I’m gonna go back to that nap I was having before I met you guys. It’s been fun, but I’m still tired. G’night guys…”

“Night Freddy, oh and please don’t tell anyone I’m classified as a god class.” Caster said as put the token back into her pocket. “Hope he’ll be ok?” She said as she turned another statues head around. “I wouldn’t really blame him if he kept his world into madness.”

Chapter 4: Combat training 101

Chapter 4: Combat Training 101

“Alright idiots, yesterday we learn somewhat about displaced humans. Today’s lesson is all about using your new powers and getting a feel for them.” Said Grail as he summon a chalkboard with the words fighting class 101. “And today we’re getting another surprise guess from the mutiverse.”

“And who will that be Grail-kun?” Asked Caster.

The Holy Grail levitated a diamond right in front of him. “Oh you’ll see. Hey Kat Shifter and Raven Masters I summon you two here.” He said as a portal appeared in front of the servants. “And don’t let me summon you two by force if you refuse to come here.”

“Gah!” a black and red haired girl screamed as she fell out of the portal. “God dammit! Not this shit again!”

“Stop whining, Raven,” another girl said as she walked through behind her friend. “I told you this kind of stuff is going to happen a lot. Just think of them as learning opportunities.”

“Oh shut up!” Raven fumed causing her friend to giggle.

“Ah good you two came to my request, guess I didn’t have to come over there and get you myself then huh?”

“Another displaced humans, really grail?” Said Gilgamesh. “Why can’t you summon a servant to teach us?”

“Cause their busy doing important stuff at the moment, so these two kids will teach you for today.” He said as the vanished. “Oh keep an eye on Caster, make sure she doesn’t do anything stupid to provoke that Raven girl.”

“Tch, dick head of a grail.” Said Gilgamesh.

“Okay, what the fuck is going on?” Raven asked, looking around. “I swear, Kat, this Displaced shit still makes no sense.”

“You get used to it,” Kat shrugged.

“I’m sorry about that, the Holy Grail can be a bit odd at time but he means well.” Saber said as she extended a hand towards Kat & Raven. “Anyway my name is Saber The King of Knights, it’s a pleasure to meet you two.”

“A pleasure,” Kat shook her hand. “I am Kat Shifter, Queen of Gravity. My friend here is Raven Masters, the Master of Gravity.”

“Whatever,” Raven sighed.

“Sorry about her,” Kat gave them an apologetic look. “She’s not too big of a fan of Displaced stuff unless we’re fully off the clock.”

“And once again the grail fucks someone over again.” Said Gilgamesh. “Though your sister looks like she could kill someone….hey Caster wanna have a new friend?”

“Oh boy do I!” Caster teleport next to Raven and gave her a hug. “Yay, I get a new friend!”

“General?” Raven said in a harsh tone. “Permission to kill?”

“Denied, lieutenant,” Kat sighed. “We make friendly relations, remember? Killing a fellow Displaced flies in the face of that.”

“Goddammit.”

“Heh good luck trying to kill her, Gilgamesh try that but it fail epicly.” Said Saber. “Oh before I forget these are my friends. Gilgamesh The Queen of Heroes, and Tamamo-no-Mae or Caster for short.”

“Yep that’s me Queen of all heroes, and our idiot friend Caster.” Said Gilgamesh.

“It is very nice to meet you three,” Kat nodded. “I’m sure Raven would feel the same, but you know how workaholics can be.”

“I can still hear you.”

“Good, maybe you’ll listen for once.”

“Oh yeah I had a friend like her.” Saber points to Gilgamesh.

“Screw you jackass. And Caster stop hugging Raven, she looks like she’s going to kill you at any second.”

“But she so huggable.” Caster hugged Raven even tighter.

“You want huggable?” Raven asked, a sinister grin forming on her lips.

Kat understood immidiately. “Oh no, Raven you’d better not--” Too late as Raven slugged her sister in the chest, a green light going off. When it died down, a quadrupedal blonde pony had taken Kat’s place. “Fils de pute!”

“Sorry, general,” Raven said, trying to keep herself from laughing. “It was an honest mistake.”
Caster stopped hugging Raven as her eyes started to sparkle with delight after seeing Kat as a pony. She began to slowly walk towards her with a little bit of drool coming from her mouth. “Pony…….Must cuddle...with pony.”

“Caster no.” Said Saber. “Remember what happen the last time you try to cuddle with a pony back home.”

“Oh yeah he kicked me in the head that I had somewhat brain damage after that…..Oh.”

“And you’re already have memory lost, we don’t want anything else added to the list.”

“Fine…..but I will have my cuddle moment with her.” Caster said as she teleported above Raven’s head.

“What is she doing?” Raven asked. Kat was too busy trying to find the badge that would turn her back to normal to bother noticing what the others were up to.

“Yeah Caster not right in the head after certain head injuries as a kid, so she does random things that even we don’t know.”

“Yeah like yesterday she turn the heads on all the statues around.” Said Gilgamesh.”She kept on saying they were looking at her funny.”

“So we just let her do stuff like that.” Said Saber. “But before we lose track, the Holy Grail said you two are gonna be teaching us.”

The green flash went off again and Kat was standing on two legs once more. “Not cool, girl,” she pointed at Raven who smirked. “Anyway, I suppose we could be of assistance in teaching… depending on what it is we are to be teaching that is. I’m not all that good with academia, let me warn you there.”

Caster points at the chalkboard behind her. “It’s not math, it’s fighting class 101. He wants you to train us to get a feel for our new powers, seeing how we knocked out almost half of the royal guards in Canterlot.”

“Oh, combat training I can do,” she smiled. “What kind of training would you like? I can offer many different forms of combat, both military and free-style.”

“It’s more like he wants us to spare with you to see how we do, that and along with testing out our skills against someone like you two.” Said Gilgamesh. “Not like we need it or anything, I can handle myself in a fight.”

“Oh really?” Kat asked, sounding intrigued. “Then let’s test that, shall we?”
“Heh with pleasure kid, but don’t blame me if you get hurt.” Gilgamesh vanished into golden dust, as she appeared outside in an open field. “Let’s see how good you are.”

Kat followed, getting into a little battle stance, barely even in a crouch. “I’ll give you the first move… and don’t call me kid. Chances are favorable that I’m older than you.”

“Really now? Then I guess I don’t have to go easy on you then.” Gilgamesh snapped her fingers as a red gate open up behind herself. “Gate of Babylon!” She yelled as weapons upon weapons appeared halfway out of the gate. “Fool you face the mightiest swordsmen of all of Equestria! You face me Gilgamesh! Long have I sought out an opponent worthy to face, scoured the furthest marches, East and West! And now my search brings me here to you! Prepare to lose!” Gilgamesh fired off two golden axes at Kat.

Kat smiled, simply lifting up one finger. With a quick twitch, the axes curved off in opposite directions, embedding into the ground. “Come on,” she egged on. “I thought you were going to show me your best. Tell ya what. I won’t even move from this spot. Just give me everything you got.”

“FINE!!!” Yelled Gilgamesh as she fried a barrage of lances at Kat. “Try this then if you can dodge it that is!?”

The lances just kept coming as Kat stood there. Closer and closer and closer until… they stopped. Just immediately stopped in midair. Kat snapped her fingers and the entire barrage just collapsed to the ground. To make it even more infuriating, she pulled out a carrot and began munching on it. “Nnnext.”

“......Enkidu!” Chains appeared from out of the gate and wrapped themselves around Kat. “Chains of the heavenly, these chains are able to hold down any being with any divinity, rendering them powerless. Let’s see you try to escape from that.” With that Gilgamesh snapped her fingers, firing another barrage of lancers.

“Question Raven, does you sister classify as a god class or something?” Asked Saber.

“Nope, not that I know of,” Raven replies. “We’re just two humans with super powers… but Gilgamesh doesn’t need to know that.”

“It’s a good thing she doesn’t know how to use her noble phantasm at the moment.”

“Noble what?”

“Noble phantasm is our special move we have, kinda like a trump card we servants have. Gilgamesh noble phantasm is called Enma Elish it’s an instant kill move that can’t be blocked unless you have my second noble phantasm Avalon.” She said pulling out her sword & sheath. “But that move of her’s is pretty useful when it come to care of armies of monsters, seeing how it reveals the truth.”

“Whatever that means,” Raven sighed. “Anyways… I bet fifty bits Kat wins without Gilgamesh ever landing a single hit.”

“Oh there’s no bet your sister will win against Gilgamesh, seeing how those chains are useless against her.”

“HA! Let’s see you survive that mongrel!” Yelled Gilgamesh thinking she won the fight.

“Oh yes, most impressive, mmhm… so… is this all ya got?” Kat doesn’t look very impressed.

“What the hell!? Why aren’t you down and bleeding dammit!?”

“Well, let’s see, you are using projectiles on an opponent who controls gravity with thought alone… see the error in your strategy now?”

Gilgamesh growls in anger as she pulled out her sword EA from the gate. “Then let’s see how good you are against my blade.” She said as her blade started to spin around, as prana energy started to form around it.

“I wonder if your sister with attack her before Gilgamesh uses her broken phantasm?” Asked Saber.

“THAT THIS ENMA ELI-!” Before Gilgamesh can even blink, Kat is right in front of her, smiling.

“Sorry, but this is for training purposes.” She never even saw Kat’s fist as it slammed into her face. Gilgamesh was sent flying by the attack, only for another to strike her in the back and be launched into the air. Kat reappeared above her and slammed her knee into Gilgy’s back before front-flipping and blasting the Queen of Heroes back to the earth below, shattering the ground on contact. Kat floated down to the edge of the crater, an apologetic smile on her face. “Like I said, sorry.”

“D...Dammit.” She said as her body started to disappear.”I can’t believe I lost and died at your hands, tch grail’s gonna be pissed when he summons me again.”

“Cheer up Gilgy, there’s always next time.” Caster said patting her on the head before she disappeared.

“Whatever dumbass, I may have lost but Saber will beat one of you at least.” Upon saying that Gilgamesh turns to golden dust, leaving behind her token which was an axe made out of pure gold.
“Congrats you won the fight.” Said Saber handing over Gilgamesh’s token to Kat.

She took it, but was quite surprised as to what happened. “Um… wow, I thought she was stronger than that. That shouldn’t have killed her.”

“Don’t worry about her, were servants. Souls that are based off of the legendary heroes on earth when they die, and as for her she’s still trying to get used to the whole maintaining a body thing.” Saber pulled her sword out which was invisible. “But unlike her, I’m more well in tune with my new body then she does.”

“Unfortunately, I’m not going to be your opponent.” Kat nodded towards Raven. “She is. Raven has been using swords much longer than I have, so it would be a better match up.”

“Fair enough, shall we begin Raven?”

Raven and Kat switched with a quick teleport and Raven drew her long sword. “I’ve been waiting to test my metal against another swordsman for a long time. Ponies just don’t stack up to sword fight appropriately.”

“I know what you mean, the ponies weapons here break to easy when they clash with my sword. Then again if they knew my blades true identity, then they might bow down to me because of it.” Saber readies her sword as she took a battle stance.

“Even if that sword was Excalibur, I don’t bow down before anyone. Not even Celestia can make me bow,” Raven declared.

“How did you know about my sword Excalibur? The only ones that know about that are servants and The Holy Grail.”

“Wait, seriously? ...that’s Excalibur? ...I give up on understanding this shit. Let’s just fight already.”

“Agreed.” Saber said as she revealed her sword true identity. “My name is Artoria Pendragon, but I prefer you call me Saber. Prepare to lose against the King of knights Master of Gravity!” She said as she summon prana into her feet, and charged at Raven like a bullet being shot.

Raven planted her feet hard into the ground and braced for the attack, her sword in a defensive position.

Saber’s blade made contact with Raven’s sword, as she was slightly moved back a bit from her position. “Impressive, tell me. What is your sword made out of?” Saber asked.

“It’s enchanted vibranium… one of the last relics of the dragons. Able to take and dish out as much force as I need it to.”

“Just like Excalibur but different.” Saber summoned prana into her gauntlets, as she sent Raven back a few feet away from her. She then cut at the air causing a burst of air to be launched at Raven.

Raven cursed, bringing her blade parallel to her body to block. When the burst hit, the lieutenant held firm, mostly unaffected. “Don’t think something like that is going to work on me!” She slammed her blade into the ground, a red energy began jettisoning into the ground, breaking it apart as it headed for Saber.

“Was hoping it would, but then again I’m dealing with a displaced!” Saber sword started to glow as she cut through the oncoming attack. “You’re gonna have to do better than that if you think that attack could hurt a saber class like me.”

“Oh this is just like watching one of those chinese swordsmen movie, only it’s with a knight and a fencer.” Said Caster munching on a bucket of popcorn.

“It will be interesting,” Kat admitted, taking a handful of popcorn. “I have yet to see Raven give it her all, so this should be a good training session. It’s about time she finally got into the field and away from that desk.”

Raven growled, getting a little frustrated with the constant back and forth. “I’ve had enough of this!” She charged forward, her sword prepared to strike.

Saber saw her charging at her as she moved to the left, parrying Raven’s blade up and countered with a punch to the face. “Got ya.”

The other girl stumbled back, holding her nose. “You bitch!” Raven growled. Her body coated in her black and blue energy. “Now I’m going to fuck you up!”

“God it’s Gilgamesh all over again, only she’s more pissed and can actually hit me.” Saber took a defensive stance getting ready for Ravens attack. “I’m hoping I don’t have to use both of my Phantasms on her, don’t want to get lectured on by Shining Armor…..again.”

Raven charged Saber, swinging her sword forcefully and pushing her opponent back. Strike after strike landed on Saber’s sword, each one twice as powerful as the last. Raven had turned relentless, almost as if she was purposefully trying to kill Saber.

“This is beginning to get out of hand,” Kat commented, watching the duel passively. “Raven’s anger is starting to get the better of her.”

“I wouldn’t worry about, after all even if your sister does kill Saber she’ll come back in a few minutes or so.” Caster said as she summoned a bottle of soda from out of her hat. “And besides just watch, you haven’t seen all of Sabers tricks.”

Saber summoned prana into her gauntlets increasing her strength to push Raven away from her with her sword. “I give you credit you’re quite skilled, but your anger with what’s making you a bit sloppy and careless.”

“Shut up!” Raven screamed, slamming her blade down on Saber’s with one hundred times gravity added on.

“Tch to stubborn to take my advice then? Fine then let me show just how that will lead you to your defeat then.” A surge of prana energy erupted from underneath Saber, causing Raven to be pushed back a few feet away from her.

“Then allow me to show you my noble phantasm!”

“Your little light show doesn’t frighten me,” Raven shot back. She got into a fighting stance, her sword bared and at the ready. “Bring it on, fucker.”

The burst of prana energy stopped after a few second. Saber closed her eyes as she begun to start chanting. “My sword is a dream that all warriors scattered in battle, past, present and future. Hold and mournfully exalt as their final moment approach.” Sparks of light start to appear from underneath the earth slowly being drawn toward Saber’s sword.

“So she’s really gonna use it huh?” Said Caster.

“Use what?” Kat asked.

“Tell me have you ever heard of King Arthur and The knights of the round table?”

“Who hasn’t?” she joked.

“Then you should know about Excalibur right?”

“The sword of the lake, yes. Not the one in the stone, I know most people mix those up.”

“Well good then I don’t have to explain much, but unlike the stories you heard. Saber is holding the real Excalibur.”

“So it has some mystical, magical powers?”

“Pretty much yeah, but the sword has a second title called The Sword of Promise Victory. Meaning who ever wield the sword and defeat any opponent he or she faces with it.” Caster finished her drink as she continue to speak. “But only Saber can wield it and unlock both of its powers.”

“Any opponent, huh?” Kat asked, musing over the thought. “Hmm, I certainly hope Raven can put that to the test.”

“We’ll see if she can stand up against one of the 5 holy weapons.”

“I who carries their will as my pride, bidding them to remain steadfast in their loyalty. Now, the undefeated king sings aloud the name of the miracle I hold in my hands.” Saber’s sword glowed bright yellow, as the blade grew brighter and brighter by the second.

“Are you going to fight or chant?” Raven prodded, getting angrier. “I’m getting sick of waiting around. Do something before I just kill you!”

“Heh figures someone like you would not show respect to the sword heroes wish to claim, how childish and immature of you.”

“I’m pretty sure I’m older than you are, so shut up!” Raven snarled.

“True but this sword has been around for 5,000 years, so show some respect to history’s forgotten holy weapon child!”

“Oh I’m soo recording this.” Caster said pulling out her cellphone.

“Fuck your history in the ass!” Raven shouted back. “Do something already! I’ve got shit to do today!”

“.....You know what I’ll just wait, I mean I’m sure I still need to charge my blade up just a little more.” Saber said in a teasing tone.

Raven started shaking in anger. “You… mother fucking… annoying… pain in the ass… BITCH!” She shot forward with enough force to instantly break the sound barrier, intending to cleave right through the object of her hatred.

“THE SWORD OF PROMISE VICTORY!!! EXCALIBUR!!!!” Saber swung her sword down as the prana energy being stored inside of it was launched at Raven.

She didn’t even flinch as the power shot towards her. She charged her own sword with her own energy, encasing it in her aura as well and sliced right at the energy.

“Right as I predicted.” Saber thought as she prepare for Raven coming at her. “Now for stage two of my counterattack.”

“I’m going to cut you!!” Raven screamed, too enraged to do anything else but attack.

“And like that you let your rage get the better of you.” Saber brought up her sheath as Raven’s blade made contact with it. “The Everlasting Utopia! Avalon!”

“And there’s Saber’s counterattack.” Said Caster. “See I told you that Saber had a few tricks up her sleeve or two. And now the finish blow is coming up.”

As Raven’s blade was parried away, Saber sword started to glow bright yellow again as she brought it up above her head. “Checkmate sister “EXCALIBUR!!!” Saber brought her sword down onto Raven chest… only to stop midway.

Instantly, a massive shockwave blasted Raven away and leaving Saber stunned. When the dust cleared, Kat was standing there, holding Excalibur with her hand… which had turned a deep blood red.

“Sorry about that,” Kat said. “But I can’t exactly let you do too much damage here. I have to protect my sister after all.”

“RIght…hehehe…Sorry guess I got caught up in the heat of the moment didn’t I?” Saber said as her face blushed red a little.

“It’s alright, not too much damage. Broke my arm there,” she nodded at her red limb. “But Cancer is taking care of it.”

“Oh shit! I’m so sorry I didn’t think excalibur had that much power to do that!?”

“You’re just fine Saber. You have great power, that’s for certain.” Kat let go of the sword, flexing it a little. “If I didn’t have my symbiote, probably would have done more than just break my arm.”

“Wow, I didn’t think I was that strong. Guess taking kendo classes paid off for once.”

“Ha! See I told you Saber was stronger than your sister, Kat.” Caster said as she teleported next to Raven, giving her a cupcake. “And here’s your reward, the cupcake of epicness.”

“Get away from me before I shove this blade through your ass,” Raven snarled.

“God what did you have this morning, wheat constituted bitch this morning?” Caster asked.

“Raven’s always been a sore loser. Just leave her be for now,” Kat explained. “We’re still ‘on the job’ so Military Raven is the one in charge. You should have called when we were ‘off the clock’. She’d be much more pleasurable to be around.”

“Don’t blame us, blame the holy grail for doing that.” Caster said as she teleported next to Kat. “Anyway I believe it’s my turn for a sparring match right?”

“I suppose it is,” Kat agreed. “Whenever you are ready, we shall begin your lessons.”

Caster teleported to where Saber and Raven had fought. “I’m always ready for a fight.”

“Fair warning be prepare for a lot of puns.” Warned Saber. “.....a lot of puns.”

“Trust me… there are worse quirks.” Kat shook her head, getting into a battle stance, her symbiote arm in front of her. “Let’s begin. Student first.”

“With pleasure.” Caster pulled out a talisman from her sleeve, and tossed it at Kat. “Frigid Heaven!!!” She yelled as the talisman turn blue.

Kat smirked and stood straight from her battle stance. She held out her hand flat towards Caster and the talisman stopped in front of her. “If that’s your battle style, Caster, then you are in for a cold reception.” She flicked her fingers and the talisman shot back at its owner at double the speed.

“Hey I do the puns around here.” Caster said as she used her mirror to block her own talisman. “And don’t think using my own talisman on me would work.” Caster pulled out another talisman, and launched at her. “Cause sister you’re just only seeing some of my moves, “Frigid Heaven!!” Caster sent her talisman underneath Kat, as a column of ice encased her in ice. “Hope I’m not giving you the cold shoulder.”

Only a moment later, the ice shattered, energy pouring off Kat. “Neat trick. Want to see one of mine?” She crouched low, putting her hands to her side. “Ka… me… ha… me…”

“Wait, since when could Kat do that?!” Raven nearly screamed from the sidelines in shock.

“I’m calling hax on that one.” Saber said. “Not to mention I think Caster is getting a little mad at your sister.”

“Oh you think that’s gonna hurt me?” Caster said as she summoned her mirror in front of herself. “Mantra: Aphotic Cave!!!”

Kat smirked. “Always wanted to try this variant.” She disappeared from sight and reappeared right behind Caster, startling her. But before she could put up a defense. “HA!!” Kat fired her powerful blast point-blank.

Caster appeared a few steps next to Kat. “You little devil.” To what Saber could see, Caster was somewhat covered in bruises and smoke. “If it wasn’t for the fact I substituted myself at the last second with Shining Armors journal, I would of been turn to dust.”

“Oh don’t be a baby,” Kat told her. “That was a weak powered blast. If I wanted to disintegrate you, I would have done so.”

“True but the caster class is not that strong when it come to physical attacks, but magic attacks we are masters at.” Caster started to dust herself off. “Plus do you know how hard it is to groom one of my nine tails? Especially when sometimes they can take on a will of their own.” Caster pulled out two more talismans and tossed them at Kat. “Now I’m all fired up “Fiery Heaven!!!”

Kat jumped away, surrounding herself in a vacuum. As soon as the fire hit, it dissipated from the lack of oxygen. Since her voice wouldn’t carry, Kat smiled and waved at Caster.

“Well isn’t this a bit of a shock.” Casters hand started to spark with lightning. “Bet you don’t know where this move is from! “Thunder Break!!!” Caster fired a electric charged beam at Kat.

The Gravity queen dropped her bubble and slammed her foot on the ground, blasting up a chunk of rock that took the bolt of lighting, shattering it. Kat reached out with her hands, grabbing a hold of the sharpnels shards with her power and fired them like storm at Caster.

“Mantra: Aphotic Cave!!!” Caster summoned her mirror blocking most of the barrage of shattered earth hitting her.

“Clever,” Kat commented. “Now let’s see how you deal with something a little more challenging.” She lifted her arms into the air and a large portal appeared. Out of it, a massive monster swam through the air, shouting its existence into the air. “Sic ‘em!” she pointed at Caster, the monster charging at its new opponent.

“Tch was hoping I didn’t have to use this.” Caster summoned her mirror above her head. “Mantra: Merciful Sky!!” A surge a prana energy was surging through one of Caster talisman as she threw it at the monster. “Merciful sky increases my magic by ten fold. So if you think my magic was easy to block or flick away, then you my friend got another thing coming. “Chaos Heaven!!!” As the talisman made contact with the monster, a huge tornado appeared surrounding the beast trapping it inside the vortex of wind.

“Lesson one,” Kat said, now behind Caster, shocking her. She turned only to get hit in the face. “Always keep your eyes on your opponent.”

“Ow! You little!” Caster summoned her mirror to her side, and launched it at Kat, who simply threw it aside with her power. “What the?”

Kat grabbed Caster by the collar and lifted her up. Her red arm suddenly shifted, transforming into a large blade that encompassed her entire limb and pointed it at Caster’s throat. “Do you yield?”

“Don’t underestimate me especially when you are facing against Tamamo-no-Mae.” She said as her mirror started to glow, causing the area around them to change. “Lets see how well you fight in area that even you never been before.” Caster’s body started to disappear out of Kat’s grasp.

Kat dropped her arms and watched the arena change. “Then show me what you got.”

“Oh with pleasure.” Said Caster as her shadow over casting Kat.

“Welcome to my world kid. And you’re gonna be mine to play with.”

Kat smirked. “Now, if I was in the mood, I would welcome it, but…” She dropped into a fighting stance, her blade arm at the ready, “I’m more in a fighting mood at the moment.” She winked. “Check back with me afterwards and we’ll talk.”

“Hehehe, confident are we? Well then try this then.” Caster raised arm to reach out and grab Kat. “Let’s see how well you put out against a goddess like me?”

“A goddess?” Kat stopped the arm before it reached her with her power. “I should warn you, gods don’t take to kindly to me.” Caster’s arms began to twist forcefully. “Something about being beyond their control.”

Just as Caster’s arm was being twisted, she heard a crackling sound coming from behind her. “Oh crap….um I mean pay no attention to the giant crack behind the goddess, for it’s only an illusion….hehehehe…..you’re not buying it, are you?”

“Not one bit,” Kat smirked. “You’re just one big illusion, aren’t you?”

“N-No I’m not, I-I’m Tamamo-na-Mae goddess of the shrine of Amaterasu.”

“Amaterasu? Like the Naruto styled illusion technique?” Kat’s smile widened even more as she spoke.

“No but I have that move on a talisman somewhere, but it means I’m the goddess of the sun. Kinda like Celestia, but more awesome and more badass. Then again this is an illusion of my real form so…..I’m screwed am I?”

“You have no idea,” Kat said. Her hand lit with red energy. “Buh bye!” She fired a massive blast of power at the massive illusion.

“Oh this is soo gonna hurt.” The blast made contact with the real Caster, as it sent her flying towards Luna’s room making a loud crashing sound that Raven & Saber heard. The illusion around Kat shattered making her reappear in the arena that she was fighting Caster in.

“Winner Kat Shifter, loser Caster.” Said Saber.

Kat floated down to the ground, waiting for Caster to make her way back.

Caster teleport back to the arena, but she wasn’t alone. Next to her was Princess Luna who had an annoyed look on her face. “Care to explain why I had a face full of fox, when I opened my window?”

“Combat lessons,” Kat told her. “It was supposed to be a lesson in knowing when to concede to fight another day.” She eyed Caster disappointedly. “I hate to say that she failed the lesson. While her persistence is admirable, one must also know when they are outmatched and retreat to fight another day. To know when you are beaten.”

“Good luck trying to teach her that, when we were kids she would always never know when to accept defeat. Then again she did won a fight with a pack of wild dogs and won, but in this case it’s pretty much different.” Saber said patting Caster on the head.

“Oh ok, if you all will excuse me I’m off to finish playing my games before I have to work the night shift.” Luna said as she teleported off.

“Gamer Luna?” Kat asked.

“That and she pretty much blast any royal ponies that annoy her to moon for a day.” Saber said. “We also have her sister who can be childish at time, but I thinks it pretty much due to the fact nothing interesting happens in Canterlot. And the fact that she’s 1,000 years old and doesn’t really care that much about what we do, just as long as we don’t kill anypony.”

“Sounds like good princesses,” Kat nodded. “Now, do you understand your lesson?” she asked Caster.

“*Sigh* Yes.” Caster answered in disappointment.

“Good,” she nodded. “As long as you learned something, then it’s a good day.”

“Yes even though I got killed during my little lesson.” Said Gilgamesh as she reappeared behind Saber. “Oh by the way thanks for leaving me to get trolled upon by that dick of a holy grail.”

“Sorry about the killing you thing, Gilgamesh,” Kat said, rubbing the back of her head. “I thought you were stronger than that.”

“Still trying to get used to the whole new body thing. We been here for what 5 or 10 days?”

“A week actually.” Caster answered.

“Wow,” Kat said with a bit of surprise. “You’ve got a long way to go. Raven and I have been around for over thirteen hundred years doing this kind of stuff… though she wasn’t encased in stone for a thousand of them, like I was.”

“No, I’ve been busy fighting a twelve hundred year old war,” Raven told them.

“Huh? That would explain why I could see both your age numbers above your heads.” Said Caster. “Man you two are old.”

"And still kicked your culs," Kat smirked, sticking out her tongue.

“Noted, so far the only one that seemed to pass the test was Saber huh?”

“Figures seeing how she’s more skilled than we are.” Said Gilgamesh.

“Actually,” Kat said slowly. “Saber failed her test as well.”

“Knew it,” Saber said. “how so?”

“Each of you were given different tests. Gilgamesh’s was a test of arrogance. To not let your own pride cloud you to your opponent’s power.”

“Dammit.” Said Gigamesh.

“Caster’s was one in humility. To understand when you are beaten and live to fight another day.”

“Oh…..” Said Caster as she poked the ground in depression.

“And Saber’s was a test of power. To know how much or how little power you need to defeat your opponent. Overkill is not always the best policy.”

“Hehehe my bad.” Saber said rubbing the back of her head in embarrassment.

“You all need to learn these lessons to become better fighters.” She looked to Gilgamesh. “Arrogance will always destroy you. While it is good to keep your own spirits high, when you let it cloud your judgements, your opponent will strike you down.” She moved to Saber. “There are times when you need to go all out, but most of the time, you will need to gauge how much power you should use in your fight. Wasting all your power to defeat a lesser opponent will leave you open to another, more powerful enemy.” She ended on Caster. “While never giving up is something to admire, knowing when continuing to fight is pointless is a valuable tactic. When defending others, living is more important than winning.” Kat stepped back and looked at all three. “Do you three believe you can learn these lessons and apply them?”

“Yes.” The three servants said in union with a bit of a disappointed/depressing tone in their voices.

“Good.” Kat looked them over for a moment before smiling. “Then you have passed.”

“....Say wha?” Caster questioned.

“Learning from your mistakes is the greatest way to become stronger and wiser. It strengthens you both in body and in mind and will better prepare you for your future. No one is perfect and learning when you have done wrong and making sure it never happens again, is the greatest thing we as living beings can accomplish. Live and learn, girls. Live. and. Learn.”

“Yay! For once I actually passed a test in my 18 year old life.” Caster said in excitement. Kat smiled as the younger girls celebrated their accomplishment.

“WHAT THE HELL’S GOING ON HERE!?” Yelled a familiar voice. Caster turned her head to see Shining Armor standing behind them with a mad/angry look on his face.

“Oh….hey Shining Armor…..how’s it going?”

“Mind telling me why this place looks like a bomb hit this placed?”

“It’s called training, Captain,” Kat said, an even-tempered glance at the pony. “I’m sure you’ve had your own troubles when training new recruits.”

“Yeah but they didn’t blow up half of Canterlot training arena, along with the garden as well.” He said as he survey the area. “I mean mother of Celestia, this is just as bad as when you sent half of the Canterlot royal guards to the hospital. And when Gilgamesh shoved that kendo stick up Iron Hides flank.”

“Your trainees didn’t have world changing superpowers,” Kat said back. “Do not question my methods, Captain.”

“Oh yeah your methods are so useful seeing how half the place got wrecked!” Shining Armor yelled. Unknown to him Celestia teleported next to Raven and the others servants munching on a candy bar while wearing a black long sleeve shirt & peach color pants.

“So what’s going on here?” Celestia asked.

“This,” Kat said, not even looking at the princess as she backhanded Shining across the face. “Do not speak to your superiors like that again, captain! Do you understand me, soldier?!”

“I am captain of the royal guards, I don’t have to listen to somepony like you who clearly doesn't belong here just like just like those idiots over there.” He said pointing at the servants. “And that’s Captain Shining Armor to you lady!”

“Wait for it.” Celestia said wait for something to happen to Shining Armor.

Kat’s eye twitched before yanking hard on Shining’s horn and slamming him to the ground. She pressed her foot on his head, keeping him there. “I said, ‘you will not speak to your superiors like that’. I have been the general of Celestia’s army for longer than you have been alive. So if you wish to remain alive, you will learn some respect. Am I understood, captain?!” she practically spat at him.

“.........Yes.” Shining said mumbled under his breath.

“I can’t hear you!” Kat shouted at him.

“Yes, sir.”

“I’m a woman!”

“Ugh fine, yes ma’am!”

“Good.” She picked him up by the collar of his armor and dropped him on his feet. “I don’t want to have this conversation again. Now, GET TO WORK, SOLDIER!!”

“Yes ma’am,” Shining armor begun to walk towards the exit of the arena, as he did Caster heard Shining Armor mumbling as he walked by. “Displaced bitches, we don’t need their kind to protect us.”

“I heard that, soldier!” Kat shouted, not even looking in his direction.

“Well….that was something.” Said Celestia turning her attention towards Kat. “Sorry about that, he’s been have some trouble after what happen a few weeks ago.”

Kat pointed at where Shining left. “See that, Gilgamesh? That’s what you become when pride and arrogance gets the better of you.”

“Noted.” She said as she used Caster as a shield.

Raven smiled for the first time since she arrived. “Kat is a tough as nails general, but she always makes sure we get stronger with each lesson.”

“I can see that, anyway again sorry about him.” Celestia said giving Kat a bow in apologizing to her.

“Just keep him in line, Tia,” Kat told her. “An attitude like that is destabilizing.”

“He wasn’t always like this, after Cadence divorced him he’s been like this for a while.”

Kat’s eyebrow rose slightly before looking at the Servants. “Girls, before I leave you, I assign you a special mission. You are to find Captain Amor… a lover. Either get him back together with Cadance or find him someone new. That is your mission, and you have no choice in accepting it.”

“Oh come on we tried that two days ago, and we ended getting blasted by Cadence’s beams of death.” Said Gilgamesh.

“We tried to set him up on blind dates with the ponies in Canterlot, but they didn’t like him some much seeing how most of the girls in this town prefer…..well somepony that isn’t always a, pardon my french here but that isn’t a bitch to the sun & moon princess.” Said Saber.

“An I doubt he’ll be willing go on said date if he knew it was us.” Caster said. “Then again we tried to ask him on date, but all we got was a face full of lasers.”

“You have your mission,” Kat ignored their complaints.

“Ugh, yes ma’am.” The servants said in union.

“I have a feeling this won’t turn out so well.” Said Celestia.

Raven gave Celestia a sorry expression. “Maybe, but at least you’ll get a good show.”

“Eh good point.” Celestia took another bit from her candy bar. “I’ll inform my sister about this, and have Chrysalis & Umbra look over the kingdom while we help our servants with this little mission your sister gave them.”

Kat nodded. “Alrighty then. With that, ladies, I believe Raven and I should be off. We have a war to get back to.”

“Feel free to summon my servants if you need help in this war of yours.” Celestia levitated the servants tokens towards Kat. “Sabers the keychain with a copy of her sword, Gilgamesh is the axe made of pure gold, and Caster’s is the talisman.”

Kat pulled out her book and dropped them in. “I’ll keep that in mind. Anything else you need before we go?”

“Not really you pretty much did the lesson plan the grail had you to teach us.” Said Saber. “Oh one question, have you heard of a guy name Twice Piecemen? The grail wants us to ask each displaced human that question, don’t know why though.”

“Doesn’t sound familiar,” Kat shook her head. Raven shrugged, moving over to her sister.

“Well he told us to warn other displaced of him, and warn you to keep an eye out for him and to run if you see him.” Caster said showing a picture of the guy.

“We don’t know who he is ourselves, but the grail pretty much on nerves about this guy.”

“Alright, we’ll keep an eye out for him, I guess.” Kat memorized the picture and opened a portal open behind them. “I wish you all the best of luck in your journeys ahead. May you all fall in whatever direction you choose.” She and Raven jumped through before it closed.

“Welp looks like our class is done for the time being.” Said Gilgamesh as she looked at Saber & Caster. “Now we have to do that stupid mission she assigned to us.”

“I’m sure it can’t be that bad…..right?” Saber asked looking at Celestia who was silent for a few seconds. “Right?”

“Oh…..well look at the time I gotta be going now…..bye!” With a flash of her horn Celestia teleported herself out of that awkward situation.

“......Saber.”

“Yes Caster?”

“We’re fucked.”

Chapter 5: One Angry Griffon and Meeting A Princess

***Gilgamesh pov***

“So you found this rock and want to find out where it came from why?” I asked not really getting what Celestia was planing. A small part of me thought this was a really bad idea let alone why is she dragging me along.

“I have a bet with Luna that this rock did not come from our world if I win I get to pick what we get to do at the next game night” I can’t help but roll my eyes at her, really all this over who get to pick what to play?.

“And what would happen if she was right about that rock?” I saw Celestia bit her lip after I asked that, something tell me I’m not sure I want to know. “You know what never mind, I’ll find out if you lose.”

“Okay then, here goes nothing.” Celestia said as he horn glows, then next thing that happens is the stone shakes and give off a blue glow. That’s when I hear the Grail say something.

“Have fun on your little adventure idiot.” Before I can even ask what it meant a portal opens up and sucks us both inside. I let out a cry of pain as I felt Celestia land on top of me… Just why.

That when I looked around and saw, well they looked like dogs and some kind of ponies with robot parts all staring at us. It looked like they was in the middle of having launch “Hah! take that Luna I win again!”

“Good for you princess, now could you please oh I don’t know GET YOUR FAT ASS OFF ME!!!” I screamed, Celestia got off and I swear I heard the wooden table groaned once she get off. I then look around and saw some of the dogs and ponies were slowly reaching for weapons, but they were not looking at me they was all staring at the princess.

“Are you a displaced?” Asked one of the dogmen. What the hell how do these guys know about displaced?.

“What do think dumbass, do we look like four legged ponies?” After saying that everybody just went back to eating and I saw what looked like a pony playing the lute. Okay, this was wired.

“Well…..that was something.” Said Celestia as I look at her, she was looking around and start to go over to what I think is a bar. Oh no that bad last thing I need is for her to get drunk.

“Celestia no, you know you’re not allowed to drink after what your sister told me about the last time you got drunk.” I then saw her puff her cheeks as she looks at me annoyed that I was stopping her from having her fun. I then saw the look she was giving this one pony at a table who was sitting by himself. He had a metal leg...

“Um excuse me but are you okay?” He slowly lifted his head up and blinked at Celestia. He then put his metal right hoof on the table. He looked like he was trying to say something but he just looked like a fish out of water. “Oh hold on a second.”

I just look at her wondering what she had planned, her horn started to flow as the pony in front of her was bathed in a veil of white light. The light died off as it revealed the pony with what looked like nothing happened, what?. “There we go now how do you feel?”

He looked a little annoyed as he looked up at her, but then he give her a small smile. “Thank you, you have no idea what it like not being able to talk” He said and bow his head to her.

“You’re welcome.” She said and took a seat next to him. “Mind telling me what happen to you and your friends here in this place?” He frowned at her then slowly get up. “I’ll take you to Rex seeing as he's in charge until our boss get back”

The pony with the metal leg then start to walk outside, well then what do we do now. I think to myself still don’t know who these dogmen are. So why is the princess following him.

“So what does your leader look like?” I asked. The pony stop then turn to look at me giving me this flat look. “It better that you see for yourself” He walked outside into a tunnel, wait we’re underground?!.

“Oh I’m sure he can’t be that bad?” The stallion gave a hollow laugh at that, before saying this. “If you think me and the others look bad he looks worse.”

***Gilda pov one day after she was fully healed and just let out of the heals care.***

"Are you absolutely sure you are fine now miss?" I could not stand how these diamond dogs would not leave me alone anymore. I swear they are worst than my dad when I was a chick. Not only that meeting that weird Rainbow Dash thing was really strange.

"For the last time yes I’m fine now can you just let me go with the others now?" I asked. Really I would of yelled but seeing as I was both underground and had no idea where I was kind of stop my plan of getting out of here.

Not only that but the diamond dogs who were looking after me were okay I guess. I ran to catch up with the other two griffons were he with me. One of them was just a kid a year or two younger then me, the other guy was old but not that old. He had the feeling of a soldier so he must of come from the empire.

"So, anyone know how to get out of here?" Asked the young griffon. She was at least fifteen going by the sound of her voice, but the really weird thing was how all these diamond dogs were just letting us walk around without a care in the world.

"I don’t know kid but what I can tell you is unless we know where the exit is we could easily get lost in these tunnels" Said the older griffon. If I had to be honest with myself I really didn’t care what their names were. I just wanted one thing a way out of this dump.

We all stop when we walked into a pony with a metal right leg and some kind of chest plate on his chest. The pony was a stallion and I didn’t like the way he was staring at us. "You got something to say dweeb!" I yelled at him. That when I regretted saying that his right hoof turned into some kind of metal claw with knife like blades on the end.

I looked at him with wide eyes thinking he was going to kill me. The old guy got between em and the pony giving of a screech, that didn’t seem to do anything that when we heard somepony yelling. "Steeltrap what do you think you're doing!?"

What I saw was not what I was expecting to come to our rescue, it looked a little like that Rainbow Dash thing I saw but for one thing she wasn’t blue or had wings. The mare I guess had a long golden yellow mane, and was wearing lust luscious gold armor around her left arm and legs along with a red cape around her waist.

What shocked me the most was that right next to her was Celestia, you have got to be bucking kidding me. Not only that but Celestia is wearing a long black sleeve shirt and peach color pants, she was standing on two legs to just like this mare in gold. That when I heard her say this.

"Now Steeltrap I know you have a short temper but it not nice to attack others who you feel angry with okay. Could you be a good little pony and put those things away for me please" Celestia said sweetly, I swear if I had to hear any more I was going to gage.

The pony blade like calw go back in to it leg and it back to the metal hoof again. He nods at Celestia before just walking away. At this point I have to ask. "Okay what in the name of the empire was that thing, and what happened to you!" I yelled at the princess.

Only for the old griffon to hit me in the back of the head. "Hay!" I yelled again only to stop at the look he was giving me. Then we all just looked at them as it looked like the princess was going to say something, that when the one in gold spoke instead.

"Well this is an odd place the grail sent us huh Celestia?" Said the mare in gold as she looks around and walks right up to us.

"It would seem so Gilgamesh, you think these is another one of the grails lesson plan or something?" I had no idea what she was talking about. Grail?, lesson plan?, just what was going on.

"Miss Celestia if I may" Asked the old griffon as he take a step forward and said this. "If you don’t mind could you tell us just what is going on and what happened to, well to get you to look like that"

"Oh right, well you see I’m not your Celestia from this world. I’m from a different world where I do rule over Canterlot along with my sister, but I have somepony looking after it while I’m on break for a while" Celestia expand.

"Sounds like what RD said just before she ran off yelling something about her marefriennd" I said keeping an eye on the one in gold.

"What are you looking at kid?" Said the mare in gold I just narrowed my eyes at her. That when I saw the younger griffon walk up to the mare in gold. "Your really pretty" She said with large eyes, oh brother that just what we need. The little squirt is now her fan.

"Um...uh….t-thanks?" The kid smiles at her after she said that. Then give off a little squeal and runs up to me saying all the girly stuff you know the drill. I just blocked most of it out until I saw a diamond dog walking up to us.

"Let me guess, you two are displaced right?" He said as he crosses his arms and looks like the mare in gold and Celestia.

"I take it someone else came here before us huh?" Asked Celestia. The diamond dog nods at at her before waving his hand at all of us.

"My name is Rex, come on and I’ll tell you all about it" He then start walking off down a tunnel. I wasn’t going to like this.

I was wrong I was loving this!. I was eating food and I mean real food there was a roast chicken right there for all of us and we dug right in. I was listening to the Rex telling Celestia about what happened and how they found out about Displaced.

"So that what happen, guess that explains a lot huh?" Said Gilgamesh. The dog called Rex nodded at her as he was pulling a leg off of the chicken then said this.

"Yes, we had a run in or two with displaced before. But it not all bad if it wasn’t for Asphyxious our lives would of been much worse" He then take a bite out of the meat and licks his lips. I was still wondering about all the ponies they took with them, I could even see one or two I’ve seen before who were in the cells just like us.

"I can’t imagine." Said Celestia. "I hope you don’t mind me asking, but what happen here?" Rex looked like he was thinking about what the princess just asked. "Are you talking about before Asphyxious showed up, the ponies living with us, or the other displaced" I then looked at the mare who called her self Gilgamesh, it looked like she was drinking it up with both the diamond dogs and ponies who were in here.

"The ponies living with you, I mean not to sound rude but this place looks like a refugees camp is it?" I heard a sigh from Rex, when I looked back at him he was looking at the chicken bone in his paw.

"You’re not to far off from that, but I think these three can tell you more about it then I can" He said pointing at me and the other two who were eating with me. I’m not going to say anything and keep eating.

"Mr. Night, can I talk to miss Gilgamesh please" Said the young griffon as she smiles at him. The old bird just smiles back and nods his head at her. "Okay just be careful" Once the runt was out of the way the old bird gave Celestia a hard look.

"My name it Nightclaw, what is it you would like to know" He said with his voice sounding so cold I think I felt the room cool down.

"Straight to the point huh? Well I want to know about this worlds Celestia and why the hell did she not do anything to help you all?" Asked Celestia. So Nightclaw explained, he told her about what was happening with this group of nut job ponies who were running around attacking everyone.

As for the reason for this world Celestia not helping them, he didn’t know. His best guess was she didn’t know about it. After all no one care about what happens to anypony out side of Equestria borders, and seeing that no one from Equestria know about them they can’t be missed.

".......So that’s why huh…..?" She asked sounding but worried, angry and disappointed. "Has Celestia done anything after knowing this?"

"As far as I can tell ma’am she has not found out, but I hear from both the ponies and dogs here that she has got word from a small group of Templars have found their way to her. Don’t know what happened to them but the rumors say she sending small groups of royal guards to find out more" Said Nightclaw as he drinks his water.

"Hm...another question where is your leader?" That when I heard a yell that almost made me choke on my food.

"DAMMIT DOX YOU COCK BLOCKER!!!"

I then heard Rex laugh at this. "That should be him right now" He say drinking some kind of rum buy the smell of his drink. I got the say the stuff must be really strong for me to smell it this far away.

"Can we meet with him?" Celestia asked. Just as it looks like he was about to say no, the tall metal guy teleports right in the middle of the hall.

"Rex you gotta hear this, I got laid by Pinkie Pie and her sister Maud Pie. I don’t know how they did it but I have never felt better!" He say pumping both his fist in the air. "Drinks are on me everybody!" He yells but stop moving once he see Celestia.

“Um…..Hi?” Said Celestia waving her hand in awkwardness. He then screamed like a girl and try to hide behind the bar. "DON’T BURY ME AGAIN!, I’LL DO WHATEVER YOU WANT!" I just stare after him with no clue what just happened.

".....What the hell did this Celestia do to him?" Celestia asked Nightclaw. The griffon just shrugs at her not knowing ever.

"She trapped him in a gem for over nine hundred years, he was buried under ground for that long with no one to talk to or the light of day" Said Rex as he make his way to the big guy who was hiding like a little chick.

"Did he do anything wrong?" Said Celestia looking on at the guy not sure if she should do something about this.

"From what he told me he used his magic to try and help a manticore that he hurt badly, but the only magic he knew was necromancy. You can guess what happens from there, the other you found out and attacked him" Said Rex as he dumps his drink on him.

"Rex what the hell!" He yelled at the him.

"So she placed him in a gem just because he accidentally used necromancy on a manticore!?" Asked Celestia.

"Wait, you're not Dox Celestia are you?" He asked sounding a little calmer now.

"What do you think captain dumbass?" Said Gilgamesh. He then came out and floated over to them and looked Celestia up and down.

"Sorry about that, I just helped a displaced who was battling with a evil Celestia and well you can understand why I panicked" He said rubbing the back of his skull, is this guy for real?.

"Understandable, so this worlds Celestia encased you in a gem for nine hundred years just because you accidentally used necromancy?" Asked the princess as she looks at him and how tall he was. They were almost the same height.

"It would have been longer if it wasn’t for Shining Armor and his wife, by the way my name is Asphyxious it lovely to meet you" He take Celestia hand and give it what I think is a kiss. Not sure how well that works without lips.

"It’s nice to meet you Asphyxious, but could you excuse me for a moment?" Celestia asked as her horn started to glow opening a portal. "I have a certain princess to have a little 'talk' with"

"You’re gonna bitch slap her aren’t you?" Gilgamesh asked. "Mind if I come?"

"In case something bad happens yes" Celestia said with a smile that I found some what creepy. "We’ll be right back." Said Gilgamesh and they walked through the portal. I looked up at this Asphyxious not really sure what I should do, but the next thing he say I swear if going to give me nightmares for the rest of the week.

"I am so asking her out when she get back."

***Celestia pov. in a meeting with Luna and their guard***

The meeting went as one would expected once the nobles came in to the mix. They was less concerned about the civil war that was happening in the griffon empire then I would have liked. The royal guard have reports after reports of abandoned outposts that looked like they have just been in a war. What ever was happening it was going to get out of hoof unless we do something to stop this.

"Has anypony found the griffon known as Gilda yet?" I asked hoping somepony has found something. "Sorry ma’am but we haven’t found anything new about where she could be after she left ponyville" Said one of the guards, I sighed at this as Luna walked up next to me and put a with around my shoulders.

"What else can go wrong, next thing you know we’ll hear that the changelings are going to go to war with us or something" Before Luna or anypony else could say something a portal opens up in the middle of the meeting hall. As always the nobles panicked, but what came out of the portal shocked both me and Luna, what walked out was me.

"Ok I’m looking for a mare named Celestia, which one of you is she?" My jaw was a gasped as I looked at this, other me?. Luna however jumped right in to action.

"Who are you and how dare you try to take on the form of my sister!, Know thy trickery won’t work here!" That snapped me out of my shock as I stand with Luna. I was still trying to understand just what was happening.

"Faust I can’t believe this is my sister’s alternate universe version of herself" Said my double as I try and think of something better to call her then her left hand started to glow red. "Gilgamesh chain her so I can talk with my other self"

"If you say so Master," She said as creature in gold snapped her finger. A gold color aura appeared next to her head as a chain appeared out, and wrapped itself around Luna. I heard Luna growled out as she was chain to the floor. "This is why you should never have gotten rid of my Iron Titans Tia!" I just sighed at this, was she still going to call those things that ever after everything that happened.

"Don’t bother trying to use your magic Luna, Gilgamesh chain Enkidu holds down any being with any kind of divinity" My eyes widen in terror just what kind of being would make something like that, let alone how can she control such a being who has that kind of power. "Gilgamesh make sure you keep an eye on the other guards, so they won’t try to do the whole hero thing"

One guard was already in the middle of a ran to try and tackle my double only to be hit across the hall. He landed and had what looked like a golden cup roll off the side of his face. He was knocked out.

"Then again I guess I could knock some heads seeing how you’re busy holding Luna down at the moment Gilgamesh" I stomped my hoof to the marble fool and gave out my order. "Everypony leave right now and wait outside, don’t came back in no matter what" I saw them hesitant to go but slowly one by one they leave I even saw some of my guards pick up the knocked out pony and go outside.

Once I hear the doors close I look at my double and asked this. "Let Luna go and we can talk…" I stared right at this being. Who ever she was she commanded someone with great power someone who could even destroy Asphyxious or anypony else if I was not careful.

"Sorry but she only listens to me and me alone, and this is between you and me Celestia" I narrowed my eyes at them but sighed. "What do you want to talk about…" I asked not knowing what this, Celestia wanted.

"Oh it’s simple really, I’m here to bitch slap you for what you did to Asphyxious nine hundred years ago" I was confused at this. "What?" I asked, what did she mean for what I did to Asphyxious. He was a dark and evil being who took the souls of the living why would anyone try and defend him?.

"I said I’m going to bitch slap you for what you did to Asphyxious, do I need to repeat myself again?" I shook my head and really looked at her. "No what I mean is I don’t understand this, are you helping Asphyxious or are you the one who made him. Do you know just how many ponies he could have been killed if he was left on his own"

"One he was trying to help but seeing how he did not know his magic could raise the dead so it was an accident. Two putting him in a gem for nine hundred years was a stupid & dick move on your part, which is why you’re an idiot. And three….well I don’t have third reason but I just think you’re a dumbass"

I didn’t have time for this I needed to find out what was really going on with the Templars and stop what ever was controlling them. "I didn’t have the elements of harmony, I could no longer use them after banishing Nightmare Moon to the moon. That gem spell was all I could use to keep my little ponies safe"

".....That even worse you dumbass!" She grabbed me by my necklace and looked deep in to my eyes. "Sister!" I heard Luna yell even if there was nothing she could do to help. "You’re an even bigger idiot than your sister! If my sister was here she would say the same thing….matter of fact" I didn’t like the way she was smiling at me. "Why don’t I bring her here and Moon just to get their input in on this shall we?"

"What is it that you really want, if you wish to harm my sister then you will have to go through me!" Yelled Luna. I saw she was still trying to get free of the chains.

"Zip it Nick Furious!" She yelled, as her horn started glow as another portal appeared next to the creature in gold. Out of the portal came another version of Luna, Nightmare moon, and another creature like one my double had. Only this one wearing shining silvery armor, with an old styled dress made from old fashioned blue cloth. Stuck to her back was her sword encased in a blue & yellow sheath. To what I could tell of Luna’s double she was wearing short sleeve hoodie with a black & white strip shirt and blue jeans, while the Nightmare Moon double was wearing a dress with certain steampunk parts on it.

"Sister what did you get yourself into this time?" I was never more shocked at what I was seeing with my own eyes. "Is that, me?" I looked at Luna as she turned her head sideways from where she was on the floor. "I look good in that attire" I just rolled my eyes at her why now of all time must she loss interest in what was happening.

"Thanks Nightmare Moon pick out my outfit" She said point at the pony wearing the steampunk outfit. I just watched as both Lunas started talking, this was by far the most strangest day I have ever had.

"Question why are you chained up like you were in a sex dungeon or something?" Luna blushed at that before narrowing her eye at Gilgamesh. "Is that why you had me chained like this!" She screamed.

"No that was Celestia’s idea of a joke" She said pointing at my double who was trying not to laugh. I could not help but giggle my self. "One thousand years and you’re still childish as ever Celestia" Said Nightmare Moon. "Yet I’m wondering how I lost a bet with you in poker night last week"

"I’ve been playing for one thousands years it’s not that hard once you know the ponies poker faces they make" That when we all heard a roar, not one but three of them.

I then saw the doors to the main hall open and a pony guard was gasping for air. "Princesses, we’re under attack. it just as those Sola Templars said, it a dragon with three heads and no eyes. It one of Everblight beasts!, we must" He stop once he see everypony in the room. "Umm, is this a bad time?"

I looked at everyone then back outside before saying. "Will you help save my little ponies"

"Ugh I guess I have no choice. Gilgamesh & Saber kill whatever it is that’s attack the ponies, and don’t hold back" They nodded and rushed off to where the monster was. "You might want to call off your royal guards" She said after letting me go.

"It not them I’m worried about" I then saw all three heads brave blue fire that set fire to a number of buildings. "What I’m worried about is all the paperwork I have to fill out later…"

"Oh yeah, just like how I keep signing paperwork when Caster freeze some of the royal noble ponies for hitting on her" I looked at my double and thought about that. "How about we have some cake and tea" I said with a smile.

"Only if I get to invite a certain friend of mine over to come and watch my servants kill… whatever the hell that thing is?" I nod at her, it couldn’t hurt I maybe even be able to get her to tell me where Asphyxious is even.

***Saber pov***

“Okay so we’re dealing with three headed dragon…..huh remind of that monster Gidora from Godzilla.” Just as I finished that line of thought a blue fire ball slams into a house not to far away from them.

“Yeah only this one looks really pissed off.” I stop as a large number of ponies run past most likely to get away from the dragon. I saw Gilgamesh land next to me crossing her arms as we waited for the thing.

“So how big do you think it is?” Asked Gilgamesh as she opens a number or golden portals pulling out random weapons before picking one she liked.

“I say about what, maybe the size of the Canterlot public pool building I think.” I said drawing excalibur and waited to.

“Wanna show off in front of this world's Celestia?” Before I can replay I notices what looks like a pony in a cloak, he looked like a unicorn but there was something off about his back. Then the building behind him caves in on itself as three head burst out and roar together.

“Okay… that a little intimidating.” Said Gilgamesh. But just before we could get ready to attack. The pony then yells this to us. “All will fall to the power of Everblight!” Then two large dragon like wings spread out from the pony’s back and he takes off into the air. Just as the three headed dragon neck started to glow.

“Hold on while I get that pony flying off.” Gilgamesh summon a golden portal next to the flying pony, as golden chains wrapped themselves around him. Two of the head braved a jet of fire at the both of us but one head looked up and fired a ball of fire at the portal.

“It’s a good thing we have anti-magic resistance for the classes we have.” I said, Gilgamesh nodded in agreement.

The pony did looked panicked at all he was smiling as the flash in the side of his neck started to tear away as sharp teeth start to push it way out of the pony neck then a head and it gave off a screech and pushed more of the pony body away. As if what ever was happening to the pony was trying to get away.

“Oh no you don’t you little shit head.” Gilgamesh launched two golden axes at the pony. as his body started to twist in to a longer form only for him to fly higher into the air.

A powerful roar filled the air as the dragon was now running right at us, I was a little shocked it had what looked like six legs and two of them looked like powerful looking arms and large claws on the ends.

“Great now we’re dealing with some halloween reject. Hey stupid quit running away like a coward and fight us you pussy!” The dragon looked like it was about to try and bite Gilgamesh with all three of it heads I was not about to let that happen.

“Oh you think you’re gonna try and eat me bitch?” I saw Gilgamesh snapped her finger as golden chains wrapped around the dragon three heads, stopping it in it’s track. But that didn’t seem to slow it down as it was trying to both pull it heads free and get closer to Gilgamesh to try and swing it claws at her. “Aw look at him he’s trying to get me, that so cute.”

“Fool!” Yelled a voice of the pony who was trapped but what came flying at Gilgamesh was twisted flesh of some kind of small dragon with a pony head sticking out of the side of it shoulder.

“You really need to shut up and know when you’re out matched.” I said as I summon prana energy into my gauntlets, and slash the air in front of me sending a burst of air at the twisted flesh causing it to disappear.

The unicorn body landed in the street in a heap as what looks like his only working leg was trying to pull him away.

How ever we still had to deal with the three headed dragon and then I headed something crack, it couldn’t be. When I looked at it I saw the scale like armor on it head and neck were cracking and blood was freely flowing from it heads. It almost looked like the dragon didn’t even care that it was damaging itself trying to get free.

“Nice try stupid, but Ekidu’s chain are impossible to break.” Gilgamesh said as she pulled out Eu from the Gate of babylon. “Saber, double noble phantasm on this dragon.”

Just then one head explodes as it as it try to free itself the other head ended up pulling off it lower jaw, the last head just looked like all the flesh on the top of it head was pull off before the last two heads growl at us.

“Unless it does that and it doesn’t have any divinity on itself.” The two heads that were still working gave off a roar as I saw what looked like it was getting ready to breathe fire again.

“Dammit and here I thought this would be easy.”

“You say that like it a bad thing?” I asked still thinking the double noble phantasm was a good idea. Or maybe just one noble phantasm could kill it, hell I could kill it with nothing but my sword.

“Well I kinda was hoping it would be. I mean come on this is boring as well, this thing is easy to kill, and that pony over there is dork who’s so weak that he need a dragon to do the work for him.” She said as she pulled the pony over to us. “Hey stupid, you’re a dork and you suck.”

He laughed as he coughed up blood and looked at us. “Fools, I was not sent here to win…”

“We know that stupid, you was sent here to distract us.” Said Gilgamesh as she drops him to the floor.

“It’s not that hard to figure out what your plan was.” I then looked back to the dragon and saw, it wasn’t looking at us. It just let loose on all the buildings around it and rammed it self through another one. I heard the pony laugh again.

“No… Didn’t know what you are… Or that you was here, I was… sent to do one thing… Kill” He just seemed to laugh more now as I heard the dragon roar and burn more of Canterlot.

“It’s a good thing Caster made Illusion of Canterlot when we got here huh?” The pony didn’t look like he cared. He just lay in his blood with a smile on his face. “Yo stupid, your dragon is destroying a fake version of Canterlot.”

“The Typhon is going... to the real one....” He pointed with a smile, as I looked and saw it was making a mad run for the real one, what I didn’t know was how did it know it was there.

“Watch this stupid.” I said as Prana energy started to surge around of both as we focus our weapons at the dragon running away from us.

“EXCALIBUR!!!!!!”
“ENMA ELISHES!!!”

Both attacks ripped the dragon to pieces, I smiled to myself of a job well done. I looked back to the dieing pony but… his smile didn’t leave his face. If anything it looked like he was smiling even wider. “You… would both make, wonderful… Mothers to Everblights…. children……” He then died, fuck I wanted to kick him.

“........Ok now I’m a little bit creeped out by that comment.” Said Gilgamesh who then take a step or two, make that five away from the dead pony.

“How do you think I feel? We’re gonna have to talk to Celestia about who this Everblight character is.”

***Asphyxious in the Den***

"You killed a Typhon…" I said sounding shocked I mean that was one of Everblight power houses, their not a lot that can go toe to toe with those things. Not only that but Celestia was now hugging me and nuzzling me. Why I don’t know so I turn to the girl in gold hoping she could tell me.

"Little bit of advice, Celestia’s a light drinker. And don’t worry she didn’t tell your Celestia where you were hiding, but instead she bitch slapped her and said and I quote 'Do it yourself lazy fat ass princess, who hides inside her castle getting fat from eating cake"

"Wow…" I then felt Celestia kiss my jaw and when I looked down at her she was giving me bedroom eyes. "You know I could get used to this." If she was anything like Maud and Pinkie she could stay for a day or two.

"After that the princess had the royal guard chase after us, luck for us Caster came just in time when Moon summoned her" I then saw Celestia take her jacket off and start to sway her hips as she walked away.

"I don’t know which is more funny? The fact that my sister even when drunk and still smack a pony in the face, or what she did to the statue of your worlds Celestia before we left Canterlot." Luna said. I then look at Luna and back to where Celestia was walking off to, she was going to my room…

"I think I should follow just to… make sure she don’t hurt herself, yes." I slowly follow and saw what looks like a t-shirt on the floor. Then trousers then I saw underwear on the floor stopping at the end of the bed I never used. That when I saw her under the covers of the bed with a big smile on her face.

"Really? You gonna do my sister?" I looked back at Luna with a little bit of worry. "Ummm, maybe?" I really wasn’t sure if this would work anyway.

"Fair warning" Nightmare Moon said tossing me a green gem. "You’ll need this afterwards" I looked at the gem then back at Luna and Nightmare Moon, I will never know what made me ask this but I did anyway. "Like to join us?"

"Sorry not into the whole sex thing. And Nightmare moon wouldn’t like that" I looked at them for a little bit. "Indeed" I was going to ask something when I felt Celestia magic grab me and pull me inside. Next thing I know I felt like I was dreaming again.

"I’m going to break you little boy." I laughed at that, and if I had a face I’d be smiling. "Bring, it, on"

Chapter 6: Moving to Ponyville

(Morning)
[Servant Room]

“So how the hell are we gonna get Shining Armor a girlfriend?” Asked Gilgamesh pacing back and forth. “We tried doing it before and that ended badly.”

“We could always do the secret admire love letter thing that you see in TV shows?” Saber answered. “But then again I doubt he’ll be willing to read it.”

“We could always do the lock them up in a room together, and not let them out until they become a couple again?” Said Caster floating in mid air.”That always works.”

“Will save that for when things go south, man I can’t believe we’re doing this crap. I mean what does that Kat know about love anyway?”

“Well she is older than us Gilgamesh, so she might know a lot about love and stuff.”

“Then why doesn’t she do it herself Saber? If she’s so good at it.”

“You wanna go and ask her yourself?”

“Hell no, that bitch is all kinds of wrong. Plus I prefer not to die again thank you very much.”

“Then what else are we suppose to do then?” Caster asked. “We tried being nice to him, try going out on a date with him, and we even try to use a love spell on him.”

“Hm…….Ok I have an idea.”

“Oh? And what would that be Saber?” Gilgamesh asked.

“Let’s just leave him be, and let him find his marefriend in peace.”

“You think he’ll find one on his own?”

“Well Kat did say we have to help him, she didn’t say when now did she?”

“.......All in flavor in putting this love making thing to the side say ‘I’.” Said Caster raising her hand under her sleeve.

“It’s favor not flavor Caster, and yeah I say we worry about it later.” Said Gilgamesh raising her hand.

“Then it’s agreed we’ll do the whole love matching thing later, for now let’s just relax until the princesses or the grail summon us for something.” Saber said as she laid back in her bed. Just as she was about to get into her comfort zone, the door to their room open up revealing Amalthea & Nightmare Moon walking into their room.

“Hey guys, Celestia and Luna want to see you three in Celestia’s room.” Said Amalthea. “She said she has something important to tell you.”

“Like what?” Asked Caster.

“Beats me, she just told us to get you guys and take you to the her room.” Said Nightmare Moon.

“Why do I get the feeling that Caster did something while we weren’t watching her.”

“Oh screw you Gilgamesh, I didn’t do anything this time!”

“Yes ‘this time,’ but not all those other time when you and Amalthea messed around with the nobles in Canterlot.”

“Hey they had it coming, they should’ve thought about what will happen if you call me a slut.”

“Girls!” Yelled Saber getting Caster and Gilgamesh’s attention. “Can we please just go see what Celestia & Luna want with us?”

“......Fine.” They said in union.

(Celestia’s Room)

“We’re moving to ponyville.” Said Celestia.

“WHAT!?” Yelled the servants in disbelief.

“I said we’re moving to ponyville, do I need to repeat myself again?”

“Why are we moving to Ponyville?” Caster asked hugging onto Amalthea like a plushy.

“No reason it’s just that every 1,000 years or so, Luna and I take a break from ruling Canterlot and get somepony else to rule for a while.”

“Who the poor sap you got to take over Canterlot?” Asked Gilgamesh.

(Throne Room)

“And that is why we must have my birthday party at this location, and only rich, noble ponies are allowed in it. Not common street rats like this pony beside me.” BlueBlood said pointing to the pony next to him.

“Screw you and your birthday you right bitch, that’s my home you want to demolish!”

“And it will be a perfect place to build my birthday stadium. So get your trash out of that thing you call a house.”

“Buck you you little shit! I’m not moving out of my home. Find another place to build you stupid birthday thing.”

“My birthday stadium is not stupid you commoner scum!”

“Why did I agree to look after Celestia’s Kingdom again? Oh right, because she beat me a poker game and now I’m stuck here with these little brats.” Chrysalis thought as she watch the prince and the random pony argue with each other. “If things are this bad during the day court, I hate to see how things turn out in the night court.”

(Back to Celestia’s room)

“......So let me get this straight,” Said Saber trying to wrap her head around this. “you were able to get this Chrysalis lady to fill in for you every few years or so when you beat her in a game of strip poker?”

“Pretty much yeah, it’s not that hard to be her when you know what her facial expressions are.” Celestia said with a devilish smile on her face.

“I don’t know weather I should be impressed by how good she is despite being childish at times, or be afraid at the fact that she both childish and smart when she wants to be.”

“Anyway while Chrysalis and Discord are in charge, we’re going on our 1,000 year break.” Said Luna teleporting her suitcases in the room. “I been meaning to play some of the games I bought online.”

“We need this after all the crap we been through dealing with all the nobles for the past 1,000 years. And we are going on our break until it’s over.” Celestia said as she too teleported her suitcases into the room.”Now pack your bags, we’re going to ponyville. Oh before I forget, Nightmare Moon and Amalthea are coming. Just thought I let you girls know.”

“Pray tell why did you chose ponyville of all places?” Asked Saber.

“........It was the only place where we were allowed to stay in when we went on break.” Celestia said while blushing in embarrassment.

“I take it you done something in the places you were banned from huh?”

“Oh look at the time, the friendship express will be here at any moment.” Celestia levitated her suitcases, and began to walk out the door. “We should get going before we miss it, and have to wait another hour or two.”

“Ignoring it won’t help Celestia!” Yelled Luna.

“Whatever!”

“Please for the love of god, let a displaced human summon me soon if they start arguing on the train.” Thought Saber as she started to carry the rest of Luna's belongings.

(Ponyville)

“Welp we made it.” Said Celestia stretching her wings out which accidentally hit a pony in the face. “Welcome to ponyville servants of Equestria.”

“What you’re giving us a title now?” Asked Gilgamesh.

“And why is it next to the monster filled forest?” Asked Saber.

“Yeah we don’t know why they chose to live near it, personally I think the person that founded this place was a old and crazy pony.” Luna answered while playing her handheld game. “Not everypony was right in the head back then.”

“And they aren’t now?”

“Yeah aren’t they.” Caster chimed in on the conversation.

“There still living here… How are they any less crazy than from back then?” Asked Nightmare Moon.

“LOOK OUT IT’S NIGHTMARE MOON! EVERYPONY RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!”

“........Case in point.” Said Saber as she crosses her arms with a smug look on her face.

“Buck you blondie.”

“Guess they still haven’t forgotten about what happen, when you were under the effect of the anesthesia after you got your wisdom teeth removed.”

“Hey I said I was sorry, how was I supposed to know that stuff would make me do some weird stuff.”

“If you count giving Derpy powers and making her queen of muffins is weird, then yeah you did do something weird.” Said Caster.

“And trying to marry some dragon guy, still don’t know who he was.” Said Luna as she taps her lip. “But the eyepatch was cool”

“Whatever, just tell me where to put my gear so me and Amalthea can get back to work?” Moon asked while Amalthea climbed onto of her head.

“The house next to Twilight’s Castle, it’s not that hard to miss it.” Celestia said pointing to the castle made of Crystals.

“Figures you wanted to be next to your favorite student.” Moon said as she carried the suitcases to the house.

“Hey it was the only house that was available at the time.”

“That and you lost all you bits to Caster in that strip poker game you lost.” Luna commented.

“I didn’t think she would win.”

“Which brings us to rule number two for Caster.” Gilgamesh said while pulling out a book with Caster’s face on it. “Never play any kind of card games with her, cause she’ll always win.”

“That’s right bitches, no one can’t beat Caster the great in any form of card games!” Caster said striking a victorious pose. Just as she did that three little fillies jumped out of the bushes next to her, and tackled her to the ground.

“Gah! Help! The IRS finally found out I didn’t pay my taxes for the past 20 years!”

“You don’t even have taxes you idiot.” Gilgamesh said.

“CMC MONSTER HUNTERS YAY!” All three of the fillies yell as they climb all over Caster.

“Meet the cutie mark crusaders.” Luna said introducing them.

“Well, at least they're not dangerous.”

“Help there putting sparkles in my eyes!” Cries out Caster as she on the floor.

“Aren’t you going to do something Celestia?” Asked Saber.

“On come on there just fillies I’m sure Caster can take care of herself.”

“Oh god I see sparkles everywhere it so beautiful and painful!”

“See she’s fine.”

“Oh god not the bees!” The fillies have a jar of paper bees and pour them on Caster. “All over my eyes, MY EYES!”

(Moments later)

“Thanks for saving me from those little devils you assholes.” Caster said in an angry tone

“I think you did very well” Said Nightmare Moon.

“You were just standing there watching them torturing me!”

“I think it important to see if you would make a good mother if the day should come you get married some day” She said with a evil smile. Caster said nothing but flipped Nightmare Moon the finger as she walked next to Saber/Luna.

“Well that was…interesting.” Said Gilgamesh still trying not to laugh after what happen to Caster.

Saber in the meantime was dealing with the three fillies and giving them a stern talking to.

“It’s a good thing Saber saved your ass before something else happens to you.” Said Luna.

“Bah! They got me by surprise that’s all.”

“Just like when Ax ‘accidentally’ tapped your ass that one time, and you hit him with a lightning talismen?”

“Not my fault… besides he said he kind of liked it…” Caster said as she hides under her hood.

“HA! He has a crush on you.” Said Gilgamesh teasing Caster.

“NO!, it not like t-that.” Caster say in a panic as she waving her arms at Gilgamesh.
“Alright Gilgamesh, stop messing around with her.” Said Saber walking back towards them. “Let’s just get the stuff to the house and relax afterwards.”

“What about the girls?” Asked Caster.

“Oh I gave them a lecture on not attacking what looks different, then they said they’re sorry and ran off.” Saber answered.

“What, that’s it? No smacking them upside their heads or anything?”

“Like what you did to Asphyxious when he tapped you by accident?”

“Hey he should’ve never sneak up on me.”

“He said it was an accident, he even said he was sorry before you sent him flying into a wall.”

“Well he turn out fine afterwards didn’t he, and besides you know how I am when some does that.”

“So why did you try to kiss him after he passed out?”

“I was drunk at the time!”

“No you wasn’t~” Sings Gilgamesh.

“Oh yeah….. well….. fuck you all!” Caster yelled as she teleported to house.

“It’s fun messing around with Caster, wouldn’t you agree.” Said Gilgamesh

“Did you really let her get drunk?, you know what happens when she get like that right?” Asked Luna.

“Relax she was only half drunk at the time, and even if she was drunk the only thing she would of done was summon giant gummy bears or something.”

“It was some how horrifying when they was attack by fillies and were eaten alive… Why did she make them feel pain?” Asked Nightmare moon.

“We don’t know, we don’t have any of that magical crap you guys have.” Said Saber. “Now then shall we go to your house then Celestia?”

“Wait, does Caster even know where we live before teleporting off…”

“I think she believe that giant castle is your home.”

“Oh no.”

“AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!! WHAT THE BUCK ARE YOU DOING IN MY SHOWER!?” Yelled Twilight.

“THE HORROR!, I CAN NOT UN SEE WHAT I HAVE SEEN!” Screams Caster.

“GET OUT OF HERE!” Screamed a male voice.

“.......Welp guess that’s one way to greet the neighbor.”

“Eeyup.” Said a red stallion that was standing next to them.

Chapter 7: Fate/Strike

Power Pony HQ

He needed to sleep. Lance was beyond tired given the research he had been working on all day. He had found two possible locations for him to investigate involving activity with Sumeragi; A shipping dock in Baltimare and also a location in Sun Fransokyo. But now, the Adept just wanted to be fully rested and re-energized.

However, Fate had other plans for him tonight. While he was sleeping, A Displaced was calling upon him.

Ponyville (Gilgamesh, Saber, and Casters World)

There that the last of the stuff.” Said Saber as she crashed onto the couch next to Luna. “Did you really have to bring a lot of stuff with you?”

“Hey, we’re pretty much on vacation for the next 1,000 years so yes.” Luna said pulling out a handheld game. “I don’t see you complaining about the suitcases of beer & wine in Celestia’s room.”

“Mostly because I prefer not to be the poor sap that tries to take that away from here.”

“Fair point, by the way where’s your friend Caster?”

“She raiding Twilight's Castle.”

“Why is she doing that?”

“Something about wanting to steal some crystals, and sell them to the kids around ponyville to make a few bits.”

“......By crystals you mean…..”

“The ones hanging around her castle.”

“Oh thank faust.”

Just then, Caster teleported in out of thin air and landed on her head. “Ow! Stupid teleporting magic talisman.” Said Caster as she pulled herself up from the floor. “Guys you’ll never guess what I just found in Twilight's castle before she booted me out of it.”

“Let me guess? Moonshine?"

“You finally found your brain for once?”

“No and screw you Saber.” Caster pulled a hairpin from out of her hair. “This sweetass hairpin I found in Twilights room. You think she wouldn’t mind if I have it?”

“I’m surprise that you haven’t been killed yet.” Said Saber. “Plus that’s not a normal hairpin, it’s another displaced humans token.”

“How can you tell?”

“Because it’s starting to glow Caster.”

Just when Caster realized this, A bright light illuminated from the hairpin as it cause something to hit the floor. As it turns out, it was a Male human with Yellow hair in a braid, a long blue overcoat and a bunch of fancy other pieces of gear. It was starting to wake up as Caster turned around.

“O-oww… Goddess, my head hurts…”

“Oh crap it the IRS, they finally found me!”

“Caster, shut up.” Saber retorted. “This kid doesn’t look so harmless.”

Saber’s ego basically shut herself up as the moment she got to the ground on one knee where the boy was, a specialized Pistol was pointed at her face.

“What… the hell… is going on?” He asked, his tone becoming very stern.

“Easy quick draw mcgee, you just been summoned by Caster over there.” Saber said pointing at the fox girl behind him. “And I wouldn’t be pointing that toy of yours at me like that.”

“Well, it’s either that…” The figure retorted as he held something in his other hand that sprang to life in the form of a Katana. “ … Or this.”

“Holy crap! He’s a Jedi!!!”

“SHUT UP, CASTER!!”

“Will you two shut the hell up?” Said Gilgamesh entering the room. “I mean really? What the hells going on, and why is there a little boy in our house?”

One, I have a name. It’s Lance Walker. Two, I’m not little… and three, I was apparently summoned by Ms. Foxy Caboose over there.” The Adept told the golden haired girl that reminded him of Yang Xiao Long from RWBY. ‘Note to self: Do not try to piss her off no matter what you say or do.’

“Figures something like this would happen. Normally the Holy Grail would be the one summoning other Displaced. But given that Caster is basically Brainless, it would make sense that she would bring you here on accident.”

“F*ck you, Gilgamesh!!” Lance heard her from the other room, followed by a small burp.

“Is… your friend drinking?”

“Maybe, either that or it’s Celestia that’s drinking along with her.”

“MY MOONSHINE!!!” The group heard Luna shriek from the kitchen. Now, Lance decided to get off the floor. The girls looking at him now saw his full outfit and made them think that somehow… He was a superhero? Like the comics that Spike had told Luna about a few times.

“You evil little bastard! How dare you two drink my moonshine that took me 50 years to make perfectly with the side effect of going blind!?”

“To be fair little sister you didn’t have your name on the bottle.” Said Celestia trying to hide the bottle behind her and Caster. “Plus you still have a few more bottles left.

“They do have my name on it you idiots!”

That was when Luna walked in and noticed Lance. “Well… I honestly never expected guests… Let me guess… Caster?”

“Pretty much yeah.” Said Saber.

“And who is this… individual?”

“My name is Lance Walker. But back where I’m from, I’m also known as Gunvolt, the Azure Striker. Pleased to make your acquaintance.” Lance told the Princess, greeting her properly. He surprised each of the girls in a way to where they think that he just resurrected Chivalry from the grave.

“Holy crap this guys a nerd.” Said Caster.

“Go home, Caster. Your drunk.”

“I’m just greeting her properly. All of you look a bit… medieval so I thought that I would treat you with respect. Plus, you look a lot like the Princess Luna that Masked Matterhorn told me about.”

“True I am, but I’m not a Princess at the moment.” Luna said. Realizing the other part of the sentence, she then asked another question. “Wait… Do you mean Masked Matterhorn? As in the Power Ponies Masked Matterhorn?”

“Yes. I got Displaced in Maretropolis and had been with them for two weeks now.”

“......So you in a world full of superheroes then?”

“In a way yes. But not exactly. Theres also Ghouls from Tokyo Ghoul and I found out one of my friends who is a Paranoid roleplayer decided to break out all the villains and cause chaos so he could have the world under his control.”

“Wow…… reminds me of the time Nightmare moon gave Derpy the power to control an army of muffins and take over Equestria that one time.”

“So your Derpy is… What exactly?” Lance asked.

“She’s fine, though she still has the powers to create muffins now.”

Lance facepalmed himself. “Forgive me for not being clearer, but I mean what is her occupation? My Derpy Hooves is on the Powers Division of the Maretropolis Police Department along with her husband, Detective Whooves, who is head of that division.”

“Hm…… truth be told I have no idea, all she does is just make muffins for her child Dinky.”

“So… She’s the Muffin Mare that lives on Berry lane?” Lance asked, intending it to be a joke. “ ……… Oh come on, that was a good joke!”

“That something Caster would say…… but she would of done it better.” Said Celestia.

“Well, jokes weren’t something that I had to practice while controlling my powers… This space is probably too small to demonstrate. Do you know where we can find a wide open space so we don’t damage your home?”

“Oh I think I can help you with that.” Said The Holy Grail standing behind Lance.

“Jesus!! Where the hell did you come from!?”

“From your mother mortal.” The Grail answered.

“I never had a mother. She died due to loss of blood when I was born.”

“Well sucks to be you then, huh?”

“Grail you are such a dick, you know that right?” Said Gilgamesh. Before the Grail could say anything though, all of them could see lightning begin to surge from the Adept.

“Don’t… you dare… talk about my family like that you sick son of a Bitch!”

“Kid, I been around since the beginning of time. You think I haven’t heard something like that before? Heroes I summon have more sadder stories and lives compare to what you have.”

“You sure? Because a couple of days before being Displaced, I watched my father blow his brains out due to being in depression.”

“Vlad The Impaler was a slave at every young age, almost about the same age you are.”

Lance shot back a glare of anger. “God, you’re worse than the first time I met Freddy.”

“Oh so you met him as well?” Said Caster.

“Twice. The first time, he was turning Ponyville into Madness. But the second time, he was reformed and despite punching me in the face, I met his “Children” and also found out that he put a Pokemon ecosystem in his world. He even gave me a Torchic.” That’s when Lance heard a small chirp and turned to realize that the same Pokemon got Displaced with him, making him feel a bit cheerful. “Oh hey there, Kai.”

“Well I guess that will be a lesson for you mortal, don’t interfere with a displaced who was way out of your league.”

“Both times, I was brought to him. But the second time, Bonnie brought me because he thought my Hairpin was a guitar pick. But yeah, I did learn that. Speaking of which, aren’t we suppose to be going somewhere to demonstrate my abilities?”

“I know that, just wanted to see how pissed you would get when I talk trash about your life. Now then if you would give me a second.” With a blink of an eye, everyone that was inside the house was standing on an open field away from ponyville. “There, now you can spar with one of my servants.”

“Hmm…… Should I ask one or-.”

“I’LL DO IT!!” Caster said immediately.

“You sure? Hangover might hit you hard?”

“Screw that. Come at me, bro!!” Caster taunted, alcohol still on her breath. Sighing Lance had Kai join Luna and Celestia as he drew his weapon from his holster.

“Ladies first.”

“With pleasure “FRIGID HEAVEN!!!” Caster tossed a blue glowing talisman at Lance. The Adept switched his clip to Mizuchi and shot it out of the air with a precise blast. Going to Orochi, he aimed at Caster and began to fire a few bolts that hadn't damaged her as much, but tagged on to her clothing.

“Hey! That took me a few days to make it glow like that, you jerk!”

“It’s not glowing because of you. It’s glowing because of THIS!!” Lance soon executed Flashfield, with the lightning from the barrier connecting with the tags and electrocuting Poor Caster, making her tail spasm and the fur burnt.

“You little bastard, if I haven’t used Mantra: Aphotic Cave at the last microsecond, then that would of hurt even more then usual.” Caster said as the mirror that was on her back now started to float around her. “Now I’m mad, and you wouldn’t like me when I’m mad.” Prana energy started to gather around her, as the sky around them got darker. But before she was able to execute anything, Lance blasted her face with a Dullahan shot.

“If you think that I was going to wait around for you to perform some kind of charge attack, then you’re mistaken.” The Adept used this moment to go on the offensive, using Instant Transmission to teleport behind Caster and attack her open backside.

Caster’s mirror block the oncoming attack, as it pushed Lance away from Caster. “Don’t underestimate me kid, you may have speed on your side.” Casters hands started to form a sickly green color aura around them. “But I doubt you be fast enough to dodge an attack faster than this. LAND OF ETERNAL BAND!” Caster fired a shot at Lance, which only grazed his cheek leaving a stinging mark on it. As Lance turn around to see where the attack landed, it landed on a rock which was being dissolved.

“Well… That happened.” Lance retorted. The skin that was grazed by Caster’s attack was healing up thanks to his quick healing. He now looked like Caster never actually hit him.

“Great you’re one of those type of heroes that can heal themselves from damage in an instant.” Caster then took an offensive stance.

“Not quite. It’s just a bonus for being an Adept. My main powers is lightning, but I gained some additional abilities thanks to another Displaced named Majin Buu. Ki based abilities are one example, but my agility is another.”

“Really now?” Caster said as she pulled out a talisman that was glowing purple. “Then tell me little boy, have you ever met a Displaced by the name of Kat Shifter?”

Lance shakes his head. “No, but I’ve met a pair of nobodies and also Venom.” He didn’t take the chance for Caster to distract him as he transmitted himself to behind Caster. Using one of his skills, he channeled a torrent of Electricity with Astrashphere.

“Now… I think either we should have somepony else take a turn or end this charade. Take your pick.”

“I’ll be taking Caster’s place for the time being kid.” Said Saber as Gilgamesh dragged the past out Caster to where the Princesses are. “Unlike my friend Caster, don’t expect me to let my guard down.” She said as she pulled out her sword which was invisible to him and everyone else. “For now you are dealing with The King of Knights.”

“Well, that seems intriguing.” Despite the fact that Saber’s sword was invisible, his sight could see a trail of energy radiating from the blade. Switching weapons, he pulled out his own sword as it formed into a katana blade that was channeling a high frequency pulse through it. “King of Knights against the Azure Striker. Sounds like a pay-per-view fight.”

“Indeed, but I doubt your sword skills are up to par with mine.” Saber then summon prana energy into both her gauntlets and feet and launched herself at Lance. The Azure Striker’s first reaction was an upward Diagonal strike, followed by his footwork causing Saber to trip and fall over.

“I might not have the best sword skills, but a warrior must use all sorts of tricks in their arsenal to gain an advantage.”

“You mean like this!” Saber launched one of her gauntlets at Lance, hitting him in the face. “Little trick I learned from Caster, when she tried to pretend to be a robot-.”

Turns out, to her surprise, despite the fact that Lance’s blade was on the opposite side of him, a second blade soon sprang forth, piercing through the gauntlet as he removed it. “Clever, but my weapon allows me to form multiple kinds of weapons at will… which also reminds me… Bullseye.”

Turns out, Lance's second end didn’t make the blade have two edges, but turned it into a bow. Launching an arrowhead he form with his Luxcaliber skill and some extra stamina. “GOTCHA!!”

Saber smiled as did even try to avoid the attack. “The everlasting utopia, AVALON!!!” Upon say that the sheath that was held her sword started to glow, as a yellowish gold barrier formed around her. Her right gauntlet that was destroyed by Lance magically appeared back onto her hand. “On of my noble phantasm that I was hoping not to use, but seeing how you forced my hands to use it.” She said as her sword became visible. “Down side to it, it reveals my swords identity.”

“And don’t think you can use any of your little trick on me, Avalon prevents you from doing that and the only to get rid of it is beating me.”

“Hmm… You forgot one thing.” Lance pointed out, showing that the barrier was beginning to crack. “The arrow, along with my blade, runs on super fast vibrations. Almost at the rate of an ultrasound. Given this and the frequency increasing every second, the time for your barrier to fall will be…”

Crack…

“Not long.”

BREAK!! It worked. However, the gamble of Lance lead to him using up all of his current skill points. Leaving him a bit drained to not perform any major attacks.

“You shouldn’t have done that kid.” Said Gilgamesh from the side line. “That was only step one, what about 2 through 10?”

“Aww Sh-.” Lance cursed shortly before seeing Saber attack him.

“Try this BURST AIR!!!” Saber launched a wave of highly pressurized air at Lance. Lance stood his ground as he took the blast head on. But one thing happened that he did not expect.

A small bit of Fire hit Saber in the face.

Lance looked in the direction from where it came from. To his surprise, it was from Kai. His Torchic.

“.........Really?” Saber said as she looked at the pokemon, then back at Lance. “I don’t feel comfortable fighting your pokemon Lance.”

That’s when Kai began to glow. From Torchic, it turned into Combusken, proceeding to smash Saber’s face with Double Kick.

“I think Kai has a protective instinct. Not letting any harm come to it’s caretaker.”

“Really, I couldn’t tell see how he’s kicking me in the face.” Saber said in a sarcastic tone.. “Do you mind calling him off? I’m a knight after all-.”

“Well, you’re the one who blasted me with air so…… Incinerate!”

Kai chirped, setting Saber on fire. Luna herself got a real kick out of it.

“.....You know what fine, you want to play chicken boy.” Saber pulled off her cowlick on her head a surge of crimson & black aura surrounded her. “I really hate-.”

“Switch!”

“Wait, wha-?” Saber never got the chance to finish her monologuing as Lance attacked head on, having Kai retreat back. “......Normally I would be the calm one out of the group.” She said as the surge of energy disappeared.

“But seeing how you want to play around and insult my pride as a knight, I’ll make sure you and your friend pay for that!” Saber yelled as her sword started burst out prana energy.

Ah crap.” The Adept cursed.

“The Sword of Promised Victory, EXCALIBU-.” Before Saber could unleashed her noble phantasm, Luna appeared in front of her. Causing Saber to stop her attack. “M-master….I.”

“Calm down I’m not mad at you or anything, but you might want to tone it down a bit.”

“B-But he-.”

"Why don’t you go and relax next to Celestia and Caster for now, and let Gilgamesh finish up ok?”

“......Ok.”

“Good.” Luna’s attention was now focus on Lance, who she then slapped him upside his head. “Dumbass!”

“Oww! What the F-? I never intended to insult her or make her angry!”

“That maybe true, but if I do recall it was a one-on-one match. NOT A TWO-ON-ONE FIGHT!’ Luna smacked him and his pokemon. “You could of gotten yourselves killed.”

“No one said that there were rules to the fight.” Lance pointed out. “Holy Grail never said anything either.”

“True, but I figure you would of known how knights are kid.”

“I do. But where I’m from, Chivalry will get you killed. I vowed to protect those I care for with my life and I can’t just do that by playing by the rules. Sometimes, you need to step outside the boundaries in order to save a life.”

“Ugh, you young mortals always say that. But there will be times when you’ll have to fight on fairs terms, otherwise you’ll be just as bad the villains you fight.” The holy grail appeared next to Lance. “You’re still young and naive to think that chivalry had died in your world.”

“I’m young yes, but the last time I tried Chivalry, my best friend was trapped in her own nightmares because of it. I vowed to protect my friends and yes, even if it does break some boundaries, I would do everything I can to protect those I care for. I WOULD GLADLY DIE TO SAVE YOU RATHER THAN HAVE YOU FIGHT ALONE!!!” Lance shouted before storming off in a rage.

“NO MATTER HOW HARD YOU TRY, YOU CAN’T PROTECT EVERYONE MORTAL! ALL HEROES AND RULERS SAY THAT BUT IT ALL NOTHING BUT WORDS THAT YOU CAN’T BACK UP!’ Grail said as he laughs like a child.

“Grail…...you’re a dick.” Gilgamesh said as she and Celestia followed the pissed off Lance.

“I’m only speaking the truth kid, no different if I told you that you three are immortal.”

Lance right now, could not deal with this. He was angry, yet hurt. Kai was by him, but it didn’t do much to sooth the pain he felt. He always wanted to help others and it sickened him if he couldn’t help someone. He hated Grail already.

It felt like no one could feel what he felt in that moment.

“You know you shouldn’t have run off like that.” Said Gilgamesh appearing on a tree branch, while Celestia laid her shoulder on the tree Gilgamesh was on. “You really need to get a hold of your emotions, and try to ignore the grail.”

“I mostly do. But… would it be rude to say that the Grail is just a total jackass? Because things aren’t like the way they have it set up back in Maretropolis.”

“You’re not being rude kid, at least you don’t have to deal with that dick of a grail.” Gilgamesh walked next to Lance. “But then again you aren’t a legendary hero just like us, so you should let this get you down.”

“I know… But I feel like being a Displaced is a new life for me… But what is it worth if everyone gets on my Goddess Damned case for doing something wrong?”

“Is it any better than your old life back home on earth?”

“It is… but it’s during these instances that the memories come back. It’s like a ball and chain on my ankle.”

“First rule about being a Displaced, is that you must accept your new life as one. Second rule your old life is gone, don’t let the past cloud your judgment or your actions. Third rule don’t let crap like what the Grail said get you down, you’re a fucking Displaced you don’t need to let your emotions get to you.” Gilgamesh then stood in front of Lance with a grin on her face. “So says I Gilgamesh the Queen of Heroes.”

Lance saw this and personally smiled a bit, then grinning to himself. “Thanks… Hey, can I try something before I go. I wanted to give Grail a parting gift for being such a Jackass.”

“You my friend have balls for trying to do something to the Grail…… If you were a few years old, I might ask you on a date.”

“Yeah… Not in that business. Plus, one would say I have stones for having something blow up in Freddy’s face.” The Adept returned. “Plus, with my Ki abilities, there’s been one thing I wanted to try.”

He got into a tight crouch and placed his hands in front of him. “I’m facing right at him, right?”

“Oh yeah it’s not that hard to miss the idiot.” Lance wasn’t sure if Gilgamesh was being sarcastic or not, but went along with it. He trusted her. Moving his hands back behind him, he began to channel his ki.

“Ka…… me……. ha…… me…… HAAA!!!!!!!”

Lance moved his hands in front of him, firing a huge beam in front of him towards the grail. Afterwards, before he began to leave, Lance turned towards the two of them. “If anyone asks, tell them that you two gave me permission to try that.”

“I’m sure he’ll be off somewhere plotting his revenge on you for doing that, but sure why not.” Said Celestia.

“Hey… Next time, I’ll be ready to face whatever Bullshit he has up his sleeve.” With that, he disappeared in a brief flash; returning to his world. But also, he left a note along with the token that Caster was holding.

Thank you for having me wake up to who I need to be. Call me anytime you are in trouble and need the assistance of an Adept.

-Lance

Gilgamesh brought up a portal to Lance’s world and tossed in her’s and her friends token with a letter on them say.

“Call on us if you need some assistance in anything you need, be prepare to see Luna or Celestia come with us due to the fact that they are our masters after all.”

~Gilgamesh

P.S. Lock your fridge so Caster & Celestia won’t raid it.

“Cute kid…...we better get back before Caster does something stupid again.”

“Right…...Hope she didn’t drink all Luna’s special Moonshine.”

“Don’t worry… I did all of that already.” Celestia said with a guilty smile.

“*Sigh* I’m going to have a headache when we get back home.” Gilgamesh started to walk off towards ponyville, with Celestia beside her.

Chapter 9: Twice Piecemen and Berserker?

(A few weeks later)

“All these squares make a circle, all these squares make a circle, all these squares make a circle.” Said Celestia rocking back and forth in a sofa chair.

“Geez how long since Luna made that bet with Celestia to stop drinking?” Asked Gilgamesh who was comforting the sun princess.

“About two maybe three weeks. Still I have to admit this is the longest I’ve seen Celestia go without any alcoholic beverages.” Said Saber. “Though I don’t think her eating apple pies, bananas, bags of candy and drinking apple juice is helping.”

“What makes you say that?” Asked Caster.

“Caster! I need you to tell me I can I leave the house.” Said Celestia while munching on a gummy worm.

“......Ok…...Celestia you are allowed to-.”

“BITCH DON’T TELL ME WHAT TO DO!!!”

“..........”

“.......All these squares make a circle, all these squares make a circle, all these squares make a circle.”

“Ok how long before this stupid bet is over?” Asked Gilgamesh.

“Twelve hours left.” Saber replied. “I’m surprise she hasn’t killed anypony yet.”

“What really surprise me is she’s not dead from alcohol poisoning.” Said Caster levitating a trash can full of empty beer bottles. “I mean seriously there’s enough in here to knock out an elephant or two.”

“You might want to look outside that window then.” Suggested Saber, Caster did as she was told as she saw a dumpster full of empty bottles. “I think it’s enough to knock out a few more elephant and ursa major.”

“Man if she was on earth, she would’ve broken a world record in most alcohol consumption without dying.”

“The sooner this stupid bet is over, the sooner things can get back to normal. Till then I’m gonna go take out the trash, try and make sure Celestia doesn’t try to kill herself…...again.” Just as Saber was about to open the door with trash in hand, the door was sent launching at her causing her to be sent flying into Twilight’s Castle and out of Ponyville.

Caster and Gilgamesh looked at the open door to see a guy wearing a lab coat was standing in the doorway. “Good afternoon ladies.”

“Okay one who the hell are you, and two why should we kick your ass for what you did to Saber?” Said Gilgamesh summoning Eu into her hand.

“Allow me to introduce myself, my name is Twice Piecemen and I’m here to take over your universe called Equestria.” He said bowing to the two servants and sun princess who was still in a state of panic from lack of alcohol.

“Oh really?” Said Caster as her hands were covered in electricity. “And what makes you think we’ll just stand here and let you take over our home?”

“This.” Twice raised his hand as the seal on his hand started to glow, as it did the house they were in disappeared revealing a dark gray color giant with with one demonic, and what looks like a broken sword in it’s hand. “Berserker kill everyone in this place called Ponyville, leave nothing alive especially the children.”

“RRRRRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!”

“Caster is that who I think it is?” Asked Gilgamesh who was shaking in fear.
“Yep it’s him alright.”

“Are we gonna die?”

“Yep…..Dibs on getting Celestia out of here.”

“........Dammit.”

Caster grabbed Celestia and teleported out of the house, leaving Gilgamesh to fight Berserker. “Ok Gilgamesh you can do this, you been trained to fight crap like this.” She thought as she fired a barrage of weapons at Berserker, which deflected off of him like a ball bouncing off a wall.
“Well…...shit I’m out of options, guess there’s only one thing to do now.”

“NERD!-” Just as she said that. Gilgamesh was punched in the face by Berserker’s fist, sending her face into the floor. “I hate days like this.”

(Ponyville Town Hall)

Caster appeared inside of Mayor Mare’s office. “GAH! What are you doing here, more importantly why is Princesses Celestia with you?” Mayor Mare asked.

“No time. Monster attacking Ponyville. Keep Celestia here. Oh and get Twilight and her friends here aap.” Caster said as she rush out of Mayor Mare’s office and towards the door of Town hall towards the door. Just as she did Berserker was standing in front of the doorway.

“............”

“How the hell did you find me?”

“It’s not that hard to find you when you left a trail of candy wrappers behind.” Twice said as he showed her what he means. “Also you have a weird taste in candy.”

“Oh yeah well….eat lightning bitch!” Caster launched a light blue talismen at Twice’s head, but it was caught by Berserker. “Well…….NERD!-”

*BAM**CRACK**BOOM*

(At the edge of Ponyville)

“.........You know I was hoping for a normal day for once, but NOOOOOOOO I just had to get sucker punch by the dick who hit me with a door.” Ranted Saber as Kat’s token fell from her pocket and was activated by accident. A few moments later, the owner of the token portaled in through her classic red and black swirl.

“Hello~,” Kat said cheerily upon appearance. “Oh, hey Saber...why are you stuck in a rock?”

“Oh you know just felt like sleeping in a rock, oh what do you think I got sucker punched by a flying door and got sent flying by whoever it was that did it!” Saber answered trying to pull herself from the boulder.

“Want some help?” Kat offered, slightly smiling.

“That would be nice please.”

Kat walked over to the side of the boulder and knocked the back of her knuckles against it. At that moment, the rock completely shattered. “Better?”

“Much better, now to head back to Ponyville and find out who sucker punched me like that.”

“Do you need help with that?” Kat asked. “I can’t stay too long, but I could help if you need me to.”

“Mind teleporting us back to town?” Saber asked as she pointed to a cloud of smoke coming from Ponyville. “Cause something tells me we might need your help.”

Kat snapped her fingers, the two of them suddenly appearing right outside Sugarcube Corner. “Huh, odd. I was aiming for Golden Oaks Library,” Kat mused.

“You mean Twilight’s Castle? Cause it’s right over there.” Saber said pointing at the crystal castle.

“Oh, no wonder it didn’t work. Not every Twilight has the castle, so I usually aim for the library. Since it’s, well, destroyed, looks like I locked on to another location automatically. Good to know it does that.”

Just as they were about to head off, Berserkers hand appeared out of Sugarcube corners window, grabbed Saber, pinned her into the ground, with his sword near her throat. “T-The hell?” Saber thought as she was trying to pry herself from Berserkers grip.

“Hey ugly!” Kat shouted to get his attention.

Berserker turn his head to see who was calling out his name, the only thing he saw was a blonde haired human similar to Saber but wasn’t wearing any armor. “RRRRRRAAAAAAHHHHH!”

“Let her go!” Kat ordered, not moving at all as she glared at the beast. “Don’t make me angry. You wouldn’t like me when I’m angry, sweetie.”

Berserker paid her no mind as he focus his attention towards Saber, who looked like she was losing air from the pressure Berserker was giving her.

“Hey!” she shouted again, grabbing Berserker’s arm. “I said: ‘Let her go.’” With a quick extension, Kat heaved the beast over her head and slammed it to the ground on her other side.

“*Gasp* *cough, cough* God a few more seconds and I would of been dead.” Saber said catching her breath. “Though I’m surprise you were able to lift Berserker off of me like that.”

“Oh, honey, I’m stronger than I look. Let’s not go into how much, though. A lady doesn’t brag, after all.”

“Hm that was interesting.” Said Twice appearing behind the two girls. “You don’t normally see humans with strength that can match up to a legendary hero before.”

“And you are?” Kat asked, crossing her arms as she quirked an eyebrow.

“Twice Piecemen, ruler of this new world that I have awoken into.” He answered giving them a bow.

“...were you elected?”

“No, but taking over a world with the power to call upon powerful servants is quite useful when taking over a weak world like this.”

“......” Kat was silent for a moment. “Well, unfortunately for you, this world is defended. Any attempt you make on this world,” her eyes turned blood-red and dangerously cold, “Is an affront on me. Pick your battles carefully, boy.”

“Heh, like would be afraid of you trying to kill me.” He said as his one’s and zero’s appeared from out of his body. “As you can see, I’m a cyber ghost.”

“Oh great.” Saber said in a deadpanned tone.

“And you want to take over a world that has next to no technology at all? ...you’re not very bright for a cybernetic being.”

“True but they do have a way to link their world to the human world, aka the mirror in the crystal castle.”

Kat cocked her eyebrow. “You’re really desperate aren’t you. But… there’s pretty much nothing you can do to take over this world. You’re physically a ghost and this planet can take anything you throw at it. So.... yeah, you’re screwed.”

“You really have a short attention span do you?” Twice’s hand started to glow as berserker appeared next to him. “Unlike most cyberghost, I have the ability to summon any legendary heroes just like the holy grail can. Now then Berserker kill them both.” As ordered, Berserker charged at the duo at break neck speed.

Kat was not impressed, showing it by kicking Berserker in the face without even looking or turning towards the monster. The force was enough to send it flying for miles, finally landing somewhere in the Everfree forest. “You were saying?”

“Look behind you.” He said

Saber looked behind to see Berserker stand behind them with no scratches on him. “........oh crap I know who he is now.”

“You’re pushing your luck,” Kat glared at Twice. “Stop this now before you make me do something we’ll both regret.”

“235.” Twice said not paying attention to her threat.

“Huh?”

“Oh don’t mind me please continue with what you’re doing.”

Kat glared even more. She stretched out her arms and clenched her fists. Berserker suddenly did the same, though it didn’t appear to be of his free will. “Are you gonna stop your assault or am I going to have to show you not to mess with my friends?”

“450.” Twice answered as he order Berserker to attack Kat. “To answer your question no.”

Kat sighed. “Then you’re forced my hands.” Kat shouted as she started to pull her arms together, seemingly pulling on something. Berserker started screaming in pain, points on his body beginning to crack. Kat gave Twice a harsh glare. “His soul is mine.” With a final pull, Berserker shattered into nothingness, tiny wisps flowing into Kat’s body.

“Oh that’s an interesting ability.” He said as a digital screen disappeared. “But then again you don’t know who Berserker is do you? Also 75.”

“You act as if I should care. I honestly couldn’t care less. When you threaten my friends, then I don’t give a flying putain who you are. I will put you down and couldn’t care less about anything else.”

“You see the one you just killed was the legendary hero Hercules and what you just did was activate his noble phantasm.” A wisp appeared behind Saber as an arm appeared out of it and stabbed her from behind with a odd color dagger. “You see his noble phantasm is called the god hand, just like in the history book you’ll have to kill within the 24 hour period. I won’t tell you how many times you have to kill him, but I think you’ll be have more trouble dealing with him and your friend at the same time before you can.”

“Oh mon dieu,” Kat sighed. “Can’t you villains ever just say ‘Putain’ and just go and live a normal life somewhere? I mean honestly, this kind of merde gets annoying. You gain absolutely nothing, yet your kind always does this. Just gets on my nerves that you honestly can’t think of anything better to do than take over a world or kill innocent people for your own amusement.” She put her face in her hand. “It’s just so satané annoying.”

“709. Also you might want to duck.”

Kat bent forward quickly, avoiding whatever was coming from behind. Standing in front of her was Saber wearing a different color armor and was seething with corrupted prana energy.

“............” Saber said nothing, pointed her blade at Kat.

“I think I’ll leave you two to fight each other.” Twice said dismissing Berserker. “This will be interesting data to collect on.”

“I won’t fight her,” Kat said firmly, looking disinterested.

“Well too bad for you, but she’ll fight you. Saber kill her!” With that Saber appeared in front of Kat bring her sword down upon her, but missed. As the sword was brought down prana energy burst from the ground hitting Sugarcube Corner.

“As I said, I won’t fight my friend,” Kat reaffirmed, not moving in the slightest.

“Then die by your friend’s sword.” Twice notice three small fillies hiding in a house that wasn’t damage. “Saber! Kill those three little kids, and anyone else in this pathetic town.” With that Twice vanished, as Saber was walking towards three fillies ready to kill them.

Saber was lifted into the air, unable to control her movements and just stuck floating there. Kat sighed. “I don’t have time for this.” She walked over to the flailing Saber and decked her in the face. “You awake yet?”

“Ugh why can’t I feel my everything?” Saber asked as she looked at herself. “Son of a bitch I’m in my alter form!”

“I don’t know what that means, but please tell me you have an idea how to get rid of this cyber guy. I really don’t have a lot of time and this guy is pissing me off royally.”

“My corrupted form whenever I pull my cowlick off, and as for him I wouldn’t worry about him.”

“But I want to hit him~,” Kat whined.

“Normally I would but he should bump into Celestia in 3…..2…...1.” There was a huge explosion off in the distance after Saber said one. “There we go.”

“Always trust the solar goddess” Kat said with a chuckle. “...I still want to punch him though.”

“I think he’s dead, but let’s head over there and see how it went down.”

(Elsewhere)

As Kat and Saber made it to said location, everypony along with the elements of harmony were watching in shock and horror at what Celestia was doing to the human named Twice Piecemen. “Oh…….fuck I didn’t think being off from alcohol would make her this violent.” Saber said watching in disbelief.

“Where the hell have you been and…...why is Kat here?” Asked the battered up Gilgamesh.

“Caught between a rock and an annoying prick,” Kat glared at Twice.

“What’s up with you?”

“I’m in a bad mood, what do you think? You try going through what I am and then deal with an annoying little douche like him. I am sick and tired of villains, okay? THEY’RE ALL THE SAME!” Kat continued grumbling and muttering to herself after that outburst.

“Well I feel a lot better now.” Said Celestia who was covered in blood. “Oh hey you’re that Kat girl from before, what are you doing here?” Kat pointed her thumb at Saber.

“Nice going Saber.”

“Bite me sunbutt, and care to explain what happen to that guy over there?”

“Oh him…..long story short don’t shoot my favorite drink from out of my hand when I haven’t been drinking in the past two to three weeks.”

“Been there,” Kat muttered.

“Also just a heads up, that was a displaced cosplayer.”

“How can you tell?” Asked Gilgamesh.

“Cause if it was the real person named Twice Piecemen, then he would have come out in the open and try to kill eveypony in town. Plus when I killed him I found his wallet with a list of things to do in the multiverse.” Celestia levitated the list in front of them.

“...I am starting to understand my brother more and more,” Kat sighed.

“Wait you have a brother?” Saber asked.

“Yes, he’s Ben 10. So far, the only Displaced to basically say ‘screw all of you other Displaced, leave me alone’.”

“God I hate to meet him, something tells me he might kill us if we accidentally find his token and summon him here.”

“He’s a pacifist and a politician,” Kat deadpanned.

“I get the feeling Caster gonna pester him with stupid question.” Said Gilgamesh as Fluttershy placed an ice pack on her left eye. “Ow! Son of a bitch that hurt.”

“Good thing you can’t summon him, I suppose,” Kat said, floating lazily in mid air.

“Speaking of that idiot, where’s Caster?” Asked Saber.

Gilgamesh pointed to their left to see Caster’s leg sticking out of the ground. “Berserker knocked me out when he sent you flying and teleported Celestia out of the house, but when she hid Celestia in town hall he pretty much slammed her into the ground.”

“Did she say anything before she was knocked out?”

“Just like what I said to him, she called him a nerd and then K.O.”

“No surprise there, so what do we do with the body?”

“Hm…...chuck it into the lava pit?” Celestia suggested, which everyone was surprise at what Celestia said. “I been sober for past three week, and just as the last five hours of my bet was over and I was about to drink the sweet nectar of the goddesses. This little buck and his beefcake servant knocked my drink out of my hand, so don’t you dare judge me.”

“I vote for the Princess’ idea,” Kat volunteered.

“Good, then tomorrow Saber you and luna are gonna chuck his body into the volcano.”

“Why do I have to do?”

“Cause Gilgamesh & Caster are out of commission after getting a fist to face, and I’m getting Luna back for getting me to do that stupid dare.” Celestia answered. “Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m gonna get shit face drunk.” With that Celestia teleported of to the nearest bar.

“I like your Celestia,” Kat commented. “She’s fun.... she single?”

“Surprisingly yeah, right now she and Luna are on vacation for 1,000 years.”

“Think she’d enjoy a one night stand?” Kat asked, her own imagination starting to go wild.

“I’m sure she wouldn’t mind that, then again when she did it with Discord and Chrysalis they had a restraining order on her.”

That got Kat beginning to drool. “Kat want.”

“Didn’t you say you couldn’t stay here any long?”

“Raven can handle it,” Kat said maybe a bit too quickly.

“Oh god you’re just like Celestia when it comes to alcohol.” Gilgamesh said. “You might want to be careful though, I doubt Luna would approve of you trying to bang her sister.”

“Don’t care!” Kat nearly shouted. “See ya later, girls! I’m gonna bag me a princess!” She snapped her fingers, disappearing immediately.

“......Why do I get a feeling I’m gonna get blamed for this?” Asked Saber.

“Cause you’re our leader, and the leader have to take responsibility.” Gilgamesh answered.

“.........Why can’t I have a normal day without weird shit like this happening to me?”

(The Next Day)

Luna didn’t say anything but gave Kat a disapprove look as she appeared out of Celestia’s room wearing her shirt. “..............”

Kat smiled. “Hi Luna. You wanna join round six?”

“I don’t do group sex, nor am I into mares.” Luna said still staring daggers at her. “Though what you did to my sister was low even for you.”

Kat stuck her tongue out at her. “I’ve done worse. Plus, everyone likes checking things off their bucket list.”

“Wait what list…….WAIT YOU HAD BANG MY SISTER ON SAID LIST!?”

“...Luna, I am going to say this once and you’d best remember it: I am not right in the head. I have been in and out of therapy for thirteen hundred years. And I grew up around a girl who could possibly be the biggest kink in existence. You do the math.”

“......Oh faust you’re just like my sister, only that our father sold her as slave throughout her fillyhood and sent me to moon for blasting his eye off.”

“...I don’t wanna know. Anyway, was there something you needed?”

“Besides the fact that I wanna beat the crap out of you, which I can’t seeing how you’re stronger than me. Then no I got nothing, just keep your hands off my special moonshine, it took me 50 years to get the side effect of going blind out of it.”

“Sure thing. Oh, here,” Kat snapped her fingers, a bottle appearing out of nowhere. “If you’re ever feeling adventurous, try this stuff.” She handed the bottle over. “Whatever you do, start small. Do NOT chug this stuff.”

“Noted, so what will you do now?”

A sudden growling startled both Luna and Kat, causing them both to look down the hall only to see… Kat?!

“You!” the other snarled.

“You!” Kat snarled back, instantly replacing Celestia’s shirt with her own clothes.

“Who the buck are you?” Said Luna. “And why do you look like our friend?”

Instead of responding, the other girl fired an energy bolt at the two.

“Get down,” Kat shouted, shoving Luna to the ground as the blast flew over them. It exploded against the far wall, a large hole being left where it was. When Luna and Kat looked again, all they saw was a closing portal. “Merde,” Kat cursed.

“WHAT THE HELL!?” Yelled Saber drawing her sword at the other Kat in the hallway. “Ok I don’t know who you, but you better have a damn good reason why you blew a hole in our home?”

The other Kat glared before blasting Saber against the floor with a Pressure attack. “Don’t you dare talk to me like that, you worthless plebian.” She turned to Kat and Luna with a sneer. “You have this world, Shifter, but it won’t be long before everything you care about is gone.” She snapped her fingers, fading into a portal below her. “The true Gravity Queen will see to that.” And like that, she was gone.

“Evil alternate version of yourself I take it?” Luna asked.

“You don’t know the half of it,” Kat sighed. “Sorry, but I need to go. I can’t let her get any farther. She’s already killed more than enough Displaced. I can’t let her kill any more.” She smiled at her friends. “We’ll see eachother real soon, m’kay?” Kat opened a portal and dived right through before it closed.

“......Celestia!”

“Yes!?”

“Get you shit in gear, we’re gonna be training our flanks off if Ms. Kat get’s killed by her evil alternate universe self!”

“......OK, let me just get my sleep for a bit!”

“Great so we might have to deal with her down the road?” Asked Saber.

“If Kat wins, if not…...then we’re gonna need to get everypony in equestria ready. That also includes you three.”

“Fair enough, I’ll inform the others after we chuck the body into the volcano.”

“Ok…….wait what?”

(The next day)

“I still don’t see why we can’t just bury the body in the woods Saber?” Said Caster levitating her talismans in the air. “I mean it’s not like he’ll come back to life or something?”

“True, but you can never be to sure about dealing with another displaced human.” Saber said while cutting some of the trees around her with her sword. “Plus I prefer not to stay in my alter form for a long period of time.”

“That and prefer not to get punched in the face if he does come back to life and summons berserker to kill us.” Said Gilgamesh who being treated for injuries by Celestia.

“You know for a queen of heroes you pretty much suck at your job.” Said Caster.

“Bite me bitch. At least I did something, unlike you who got nailed into the ground like pole.”

“Oh you’re one to talk seeing how you got wrecked by Kat, just like how Loki from the movie avengers got wrecked by The Hulk.”

“Want me to wreck your face in fox bitch?”

“I like to see you try goldy.”

“Girls! Knock it off before I wreck you both!” Yelled Saber.

“But she started it!” They both said in union.

“Well I’m ending it. Now knock it off or else.” Saber sword started glow crimson red just to make a point.

“.......Fine…..bitch.”

“What was that?”

“Nothing.”

Just as Caster was about to leave to raid Twilight refrigerator again, she notice a card on the ground. Caster picked it up and started to examine it. “Hey guys, did you by any chance drop a card to your yugioh deck or something?”

“We don’t play that game anymore Caster. Not after what happen at the tournament you dragged us into.” Said Gilgamesh.

“That and what happen during the times when you wanted us to train with you to become the queen of games.” Said Saber.

“King of Games remember? I dislike the title Queen.”

A portal open next to the three savants and Dark Magicians walks out of it with a neutral look to his face.

“Greeting I am the Dark Magician, the ace to the king of games, co protector of all Elements and CMC and the Watcher of all displaces. And let me just say I am honor that you three are the first ones to summon me.” He said with a bow.

“.......Saber.”

“Yes Caster.”

“Can I slap him in the face for taking my title as king of games?”

“Caster if you do that I will cut off you head just like last time.”

“B-but he has so many titles, and have to do it. It’s on the list of things to do before I die.” Caster whined as she pulled out a list.

“Again no.”

“You never let me do anything fun.” Caster pouted as she teleported the list away.

“Because most of the stuff you do end up killing you.” Saber said before focusing her attentions at the magicians. “You have to forgive her, she’s been in a lot of head related injuries when she was a kid.”

“It’s fine. She reminds me a little bit of my girlfriend Dark Magician Girl when she kick a man in the ball for looking at boobs.”

“Huh? Reminds me of how Luna is whenever someone is hitting on Celestia. Then again I doubt anypony would want to date a drunken princess.”

“Hey! I can be sober if I wanted to!” Yelled Celestia. “I just don’t want to that’s all.”

“Hehe. Hey girl with the fox tail. Watch this.” He points his staff at Blueblood who was walking by and shots a green beam and when it hits him it cause him to start farting as loud as Luna can shout.

“Holy crap! What spell was that?” Asked Caster

“I call that spell shit and giggles.” He said holding back a laugh.

“You gotta let me have that spell!” Caster said levitating up to the Dark Magician’s face.

“Sure just hold still.” He points his staff at Caster’s head and shot a blue beam that gives Caster the knowledge to know how to pull off the shit and giggle spell. He then turns his attention to Sader.

“Why do I get the feeling this won’t end well for me.”

“Don’t worry I am not going to anything bad to you. I just going to give you this.” A book appeared in his hand.

“What’s this?”

“This is a book that will tell you everything about every displaces in the multiverse.” He while handing it over to Saber. “It will also update itself when a new displaced pop up and causing trouble.”

“Well this will be useful the relying on the Holy Grail for info.”

“Yeah it will help you three on who to avoided. Specially the one that are not afraid to kill their Mane 6, CMC, Spike and the princess’s.” He said with a sad look to his face.

“Really now?” Said the grail appearing right behind the dark magician girl. “Prey tell who would do something like that in your world?”

“No one in my world. Well maybe Starscream if he’s in my world or not, but I’m talking about the other worlds displaces like the RED Spy. He had killed his world’s Fluttershy, Twilight Sparkle and Rainbow Dash. Along with other ponies like Shining Armor.”

“Well suck to be those ponies huh?” He said while laughing.

“Its not funny for ones that got killed.” He said with a calm look in his face.

“Please like something like what you said never happen before, stuff like this have been going on for ages even before you were even born human.”

“And once again the Holy Grail pisses someone off again.” Said Gilgamesh.

“Well I not going let any version of the Mane 6, CMC, Spike or the princess’s get killed by a Displaces. Not while I have found a way give them a second chance at life.” He with a still calm look to his face.

“Oh how amusing you humans are. Always trying to save others from death, but in reality you can’t save everyone from a gory fate. As long as there are humans that will kill for the fun of it, you can’t ever be victorious.”

“It doesn’t matter how many of the 12 ponies and one dragon I will bring back to life back in my world because, I care about them. That is something that you will never understand because you don’t have a heart.” He still being calm about it.

“Bold words coming from a weakling like yourself. Alright then, lets see if you can back up those word of yours.” A summon circle appeared in front of him as Saber was forced to be in front of the grail. “If you can defeat Saber in a dual then you’ll have proven me wrong, but if you can then I was right. Do we have a deal human or are you gonna hide behind your girlfriend over there losing to Caster in a card battle?”

“HA! I win again!” Yelled Caster. “Wait what?”

“Dammit!” Dark Magician Girl said as she give Caster a pout.

“Just like you are hiding behind Saber?” He said with a grin.

“Mortal I’m the holy grail, with just a thought I can summon Berserker into your world and have him wreck the place or have avenger go there and unleashed an army of ravagers upon your world if I wanted to. So don’t think can’t defend myself from someone like you human.” The Grail said in grimdark tone.

“So? I can summon The Winged Dragon of Ra if I wanted to, but whatever. Ladies first.” He give Sader a bow.

The holy grail took the appearance of a human girl wearing what looks to be a black and red dress. “Saber go show this mortal not to mess with a legendary hero.”

“KNIGHT’S TITLE!” He shouted as his robes turn into armor and become the Dark Magician Knight.

“Oh not going for the mage class for this battle I see. Smart move for once unless you have any magic attacks in that form?”

“Why don’t you come over here and find out?”

“Saber! Take him out!” Yelled the grail.

“Like I don’t have much of a choice in the matter.” Saber said as she readies her sword for battle.

“KICK HER ASS DARK MAGICIAN KNIGHT!” Shouted Dark Magician Girl who is eating a bag of popcorn.

GO SABER! MOP THE FLOOR WITH THIS WANNABE KNIGHT!!” Caster shouted while pushing Dark Magician Girl out of the way.

Dark Magician Girl give Caster a glare before giving her a wedge.

“Like I said ladies first.” He said standing ready and waiting.

Saber launched herself at the Dark Magician, ready to strike him down where he stood.

“MAGICAL HATS!” He Shouted as four big hats with question marks on them cover him as Saber strikes an empty hat.

“Figures he would use something like this.” Saber said as she charge at the other hats.

“Yes but the question is. What else is hiding in these three hats?”

“If it’s a magical trap then it won’t work a servant like me. All servant have anti-magic resistance, but the saber class have the highest making us the mage killer class.” Saber launch a stream of air at the two hats from a distance.

“Who said it was a magical trap?” He said as one of the two hats reveal a small army of brown fluff balls with eyes and green claws. “Say hello to my little friends.”

“Holy crap! It’s Karibo!” Yelled Caster as she levitated one of them towards herself. “Finally I got the real one.”

But then that Karibo exploded in Caster’s hands as the rest of the Karibo army went and cover Saber from head to toe before going kaboom.

“Did I forgot to tell you that these Karibo explode on contact?” He says as he jumps out the last hat.

“Interesting little trick you did there. If I was in my light my form then that would of hurt a lot.” Said Saber as she walked out of the cloud of dust, with no damage on herself. “But it’ll take more than just that if you want to do any damage to me while I’m in my dark form.”

“Figures as much but all well.” He said as teleported behind her and use a dark magic slash attack on Saber’s back.

“What part of anti-magic resistance did you not understand!” Saber yelled as she punched Dark Magician in the gut, sending him a few inches away from her.

“Oh I do understand that. But I also understand that every anti-magic resistance has its limits.” He said as Dark Magician Girl notice there a crack in Saber’s armor.

“Hehe Hey Caster look at Saber’s back. See the crack?” She asked pointing at the crack.

“Bad move on his part.” Caster said as she wiped away the dirt from the explosion to the face. “I’m surprise your boyfriend doesn’t know who Saber is.”

“He doesn’t, but it doesn’t matter to him because. He doesn’t care about winning or losing this fight.” She said with a smile on face while eating popcorn.
“Be that as it may, he should really pay attention to who he is fight.” Caster said as she pulled out a pair of shades. “Also you might want to wear these.” She said handing her an extra pair of shades to Dark Magician Girl.

“Oooh! Is she going to bring out the big guns?” She asked as she put on the shades.

“You'll see.”

Saber said nothing but only smiled at the Dark Magician as her armor started to crack more and more. “Hehe big mistake on your part."

“And why is that?” He asked as his Knight title spell wears off.

“Do you know who I am cosplaying as?” Saber asked as bits of light started to spew out if her. “More importantly who the legendary hero is?”

“Nope.” He said in Big Mac’s voice.

“Then let me give you a little hint, ever heard of the sword Excalibur?”

“Yeah I heard of the sword it belong to King Arthur.”

“Then take a look at my sword.” Saber’s sword changed from crimson jet black, to silver and gold.

“That is Excalibur. So you are Arthur who got turn into a girl. I am not impress.” He said still as calm as ever.

“Artoria Pendragon is my name.” she said a beam of light burst through the ground under her. “And I am the King of knights!” With having said that the started to disappear, revealing Saber in her normal outfit and armor.

“Still not Impress.”

“Really now?” She said a she vanish from the mages sight, and appear behind him with her with her sword charging up for an attack. “I would be taking this fight serious if I were you, cause after what happen to me yesterday I’m not gonna go easy on any displaced that I see.”

Then a Karibo pop up in Saber face and went boom.

“Nice try.” Saber said as her armor started to repair itself “I was hoping it would have to come to this, but seeing how you wanna use trick when it comes to fighting then I’ll have to use my trump cards for this.”

Dark Magician start to laugh.

“What’s so funny?”

“I just realize something. While your body is protected by your armor, but your head on the other hand-” He point his staff to the sky. “-is not. 1000 KNIVES!” He shouted as knives fall from the sky right at Saber’s head.

“AVALON!!!” Saber yelled as her sheath started to glow as it unlatched itself creating a barrier around Saber. “One of my Noble Phantasms. Avalon the everlasting utopia. A sheath that was lost in the battle of Camelot, this attack protects me from attack of any kind besides swordplay.” She the point her sword at the Dark Magician. “Avalon will only last until one of us is down, so don’t even think of trying to use a Karibo on me.”

“He did it last time!” Yelled Caster who got hit in the face by a rock thanks to Saber. “OW! MY FACE! MY BEAUTIFUL AWESOME FACE!”

“Aww Let me hug you better.” Dark Magician Girl did so but with Caster’s face being press in her boobs.

“*Sniff* At least some is nice to me for once. *Sniff*”

“Idiot.” Said Saber.

“You want a hug too?” She ask Saber.

“I get enough hugs from Luna and Nightmare Moon. I’m pretty much set for that.”

“So you love getting hugged by big boobed Princess’s then?” She asked with a evil grin.

“At least I’m getting some, unlike you.”

“That’s good for me because my world Princess’s aren’t anthro, plus we hate their guts.” She said with a big smile.

“Hate to ask but why?” Asked Celestia.

“Because she believes none of her ponies can’t do anything bad, and keep attacking us for dealing with bad ponies like a rapist for example. Plus she think that just because we use dark magic that we are evil and must be seal away.” She said looking cross.

“......Mind if I bitch slap them if we end up in your world?” Celestia asked.

“Not right now. She doesn’t know that we broken free from our statue yet. But I will let you when you can.” She happyly said.

Without anyone notice Dark Magician teleported behind Saber and pull out a master sword from his hammer space and stab Saber in the neck.

“Surprise buttsex.” Dark Magician said in a Spy’s voice.

“Nope.” Saber appear behind and slash Dark Magician’s back. “light form is much faster than dark.”

“MIRROR FORCE!” He shouted as a mirror like barrier appear on his back.

“I told you before.” Saber said as she kick him in the ass instead of using her sword again. “Only swordplay can hurt me!”

“Ha! She’s literally kicking his ass!” Laughed Caster.

“Hmm I think he going to pull out his five big guns.” Dark Magician Girl said while looking at her watch.

“And that would be?” Asked Celestia.

She grin. “You will see it going to be a blast.”

“It’s time to call in………..the forbidden one.”

“Forbidden what?”

“Allow me to show you.” He said as he slam his staff down and five stone tablets rising from the ground. Four of them has a picture of an arm or a leg while the fifth one has face on it.

“Tch guess I’ll have to use my second Noble Phantasm.” She said as prana energy started gather around herself and her sword.

Then red glowing lines connect the tablets to make a star.

“I summon EXODIA THE FORBIDDEN ONE!! He shouted as a huge being appear from the star.

“This Dual is done.” Dark Magician Girl said grinning.

“Don’t be to sure.” Said Caster. “Don’t forget that Saber has Excalibur after all.”

“That means jackshit when facing Exodia because only a god or gods beats him. Plus since this is a dual Saber will lose when Exodia is call on to the field.”

“You really need to brush up on human history more. Excalibur The Sword of Promised Victory, one of 5 holy weapons created by the gods themselves. Those who are chosen by the sword will be promised victory upon saying it’s name.”

Exodia rises his hands as glowing ball of light appear between.

“Exoda. O-” He was cut off when he and Saber got hit on the head by pans and got knock out.

“.......Did you two do that?” Celestia asked looking at the two magic users.

“It wasn’t me.” Dark Magician Girl said confused.

Exoda disappear along with the circle.

“Well that can’t be good.” Said Caster.

“ I guess it a draw then?” She asked Caster.

“I guess seeing how Luna’s in the air above them.”

“Huh?” She look up to see Luna there.

“And it appears she’s angry.” Said Celestia. “I guess I forgot to mention that she was asleep trying to sleep off the hangover she had.”

“Oh my.” She said as she hide behind Caster.

“WAKE UP YOU TWO!” Yelled Luna.

“GAH!” Yelled Dark Magician as he stands back up.

“Crap Luna is angry again.” Said Saber with an annoyed look on her face.

“Again?”

“Last time it was when her sister beat her in a video game. Judging by the way she looks I think we must have woken her up due to us fighting each other.”

“Well lets call it a draw.” He said putting a hand out to shake.

“Agreed, but we better start running now.”

“Don’t worry I got this.” He said while pointing his staff at Luna. “SWORD OF REVEALING LIGHT!” He shouts as glowing swords surround Luna freezing her in place.

“I don’t think that’s gonna stop her.”

“It will I set the spell for 3 hours.”

“No I mean that was just a magical copy of herself.” Saber saw a shadow appear over them both. “The real one is right behind us.”

“Care to explain why you two woke me up from my slumber?” Luna asked.

“It was the Holy Grails fault.” He said in his best calm poker face.

“And you couldn’t take the fight somewhere else why?”

“Didn’t know you was sleeping at the time.”

“.......10.”

“Oh crap.”

“Huh?”

“9.”

“We gotta run, like NOW!”

“I do believe it’s time for Dark Magician Girl and I to go home.” He said as he open a portal.

“H-Hey! What about me? You can’t just flake on me like that!?”

“8.” Luna summoned a scythe into her hands.

“Your Luna, your problem.” He said he run into the portal.

“Hey look a whole box of Moonshine!” Dark Magician Girl pointed behind Luna, as she run to the portal.

“YOU PRICKS! WHEN I GET TO YOUR WORLD I WILL UNLEASH HELL UPON YOU!”

“Skip a few and zero.” Luna charged after Saber.

“Why can’t I have a normal day for once?” Saber said before she started running away from her master.

“See you guys next time bye.” Dark Magician Girl waved as the portal closes.

“Well…...that was something?” Said Celestia.

“Yeah……should we stop your sister from killing Saber?” Asked Gilgamesh.

“We could do that, or we could raid Luna’s video game stash?” Celestia suggested.

“......Raiding it is then.”

(Few days later.)

“.......Saber.”

“Yes Luna.”

“I’m bored as hell today. Why hasn’t anything interesting happen to us yet?”

“Have you ever try playing at the arcade to fill your boredom?”

“I have, but I got banned from the arcade after almost kill the owner of the place remember?”

“To be fair you did lose to Button Mash fair and square. You didn’t have to go on a rampage throughout town because he beat you.”

“I still think he cheat on that last game we played. We don’t know how, but he did cheat.”

“That or he’s been playing the same game over and over again till he remember everything about the layout of the game.”

“.........We still say he cheat.”

“You are such a sore loser Luna.”

“Buck you, this coming from the human that hate it when Caster beats you in poker.”

“.........”

“What? Got nothing to say Saber.”

“........You might want to watch your step Luna, unless you want to kiss the ground?”

“What are you talking abo-.” Luna was unable to finish her sentence, as she tripped over something that caused her to fall face first towards the ground. “OW!”

"If anybody receives this token, if you need firepower, we have it. If you need weapons, we have it. If you need some artillery, we have it too. And if you need a helping hand, we have too also. We are Zeon Squad and we are waiting for your call."

“Who the hay said that?” Asked Luna looking around to find where the voice came from.

“It came from that token that you fell over.” Saber answered as she picked it up. “Odd looking token for a displaced don’t you think?”

“Indeed….wanna see who the displaced this token belongs to?”

“Might as well seeing how we got nothing better to do.” Saber answered as she activated the token.

Zeon HQ...

"C'mon ladies we got to replace the Fusion Reactor plantings which have deteriorating for years! Also be careful with those canisters too cause they are filled with radiation. Remember to replace the coolant tubes with new ones!" Lui instructed and notice Evan walking up to him.

"How's everything going?" Evan asked.

"We're ahead of our schedule but at this rate we're going, we might make it two weeks tops maybe earlier." Lui said.

"Good. What about the token?"

"No readings from it yet Evan." Lui said. "I told you to replace the coolant tubes first before adding the plates!"

"Go easy on them will you." Evan said.

"I haven't even sleep or rest for seven days but I'll try." Lui said before taking a deep breath to calm himself down from the stress.

"Any contact with the Griffon Republic?" Evan asked.

"Not yet. Could be a minor glitch in the system or the communication dish could be damaged. I'll send a team to check it out later. As for our patients, They're still unconscious but their injuries are healing in a rapid pace. Also a new batch of Elfen Spiders Marines are fully trained by Jeff as their armour is still undergoing production." Lui explained before pressing a few keys in his holographic pad.

Beep...beep...beep

"Looks like somebody found our token Evan." Lui said.

"Good. Call the rest and tell them to meet up at the Warp Gate Chamber. " Evan said and makes his way to the chamber.

Later...

"Any idea why we are called here? Cause I got my girls waiting for me for their next lesson. " Jeff asked.

"Well the token I sent into the void has been found by another displaced. "

"Really?" Tyler asked curiously.

"Yup." Evan answered. "Anyway, Jeff, Jonathan, Tyler, Sark and Lui will go to that displace universe. While the rest of you will stay and look after the base till its fully operational." Evan said.

"You can count on us Evan." Marcel said.

"Thanks. Now let's move!" Evan said and jumps into the Warp Gate with the others.

“......Nothing’s happening.” Said Luna

“You think it’s broken or something?” Said Saber handing over the token to Luna.

“Maybe, I’ll have Nightmare Moon look into it to see if it’s not.” She said as she puts the token into her pocket. “Come on, let’s go see if Celestia and Caster are doing.”

“What about Gilgamesh?”

“She’s busy trying to get away from Pinkie Pie.”

“5 bits says you had something to do with that.”

“What? Me? Saber I am offended that you would say something like that.” Luna said acting all innocent. “Why would I have something to do with getting Pinkie Pie to try to be friend her in her own way.”

“Lying little she devil.” Saber thought as she follow Luna back to their house.

Before they could reach to their house, a blue portal appears out of nowhere as they heard a voice coming from it.

"FUCK HER RIGHT IN THE PUSSY!" Tyler shouted and accidentally hits Saber on the stomach with his head and lands perfectly. "And that's how you stick a landing!"

"10 out of 10 Tyler but you accidentally hit somebody." Jonathan said and pulls out a sign saying "6.5 but no gore at all."

"FFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUU-" Tyler raged out.

“Excuse me! But care to explain why you attack my servant without any reason what-so-ever?” Asked Luna in serious tone in her voice.

"Oh shit it's Luna! And she's a slaver too!" Tyler shouted out.

"What!? GET HER!!" Sark shouted in a Arnold Schwarzenegger accent.

"KILL THE FILTHY SLAVER FILTH!!!" Jeff shouted.

"BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!!!!"Jonathan shouted.

“W-Wait a minute I’m not a slaver! If anything that would be my father, but I’m not a slaver!” Luna yelled as she summon a protective barrier around herself.

"FIRE IN A HOLE" Tyler yelled out and fires his cannon and a swarm of missiles at the barrier thus destroying it easily as Jonathan brings his bloody machete and Chainsword down but misses her while Sark, Lui and Evan fired their mmp and ZMP rifles.

"GET OVER HERE!!" Jeff yelled after launching both Chainblades at Luna.

“Oh faust it’s moon school all over again!” Luna closed her eyes waiting for the Chain blades to hit her, but was deflected by Saber’s sword.

“I’ll give you this much asshole you caught me by surprise, but if you think something like that would keep me down then you never met me before.” She said as her prana energy started to surge from out of her body as her armor repaired itself.

"That was by accident!" Tyler said. "I was trying to do a fabulous entrance."

“Well your so called ‘fabulous entrance’ was a crappy on at best. Now care to explain why you all are attacking Luna?”

"She called you a servant and we knew that she was a filthy slaver. And I hate slavers so much I enjoy hearing their painful cries as I slowly rip them apart and keep their Skulls in my trophy room. Hey Lui, how many Slavery I killed?" Jonathan asked.

"Eight thousand, nine hundred and sixty-eight slavers Jonathan." Lui answered.

"Thanks for keeping track for me Lui." Jonathan said.

“Something tells me you’re not the brightest one in the group, but let me ask you something.” Saber points at her Luna who was drinking a bottle of vodka. “Does she even look like a slaver to you idiot?”

"Well she said you are her servant and here's a video on what Jonathan did to several slavers." Lui said and show Saber and Luna a video.

(Video)

"Please no spare me." The slaver pleaded but was answered by a crazy laughter as he grabs the pony by the leg and slams him on the ground and drags him causing his left arm to rip off and Jonathan slams the slaver on his back and again drags him which rips his other arm off and slams him to ground one more time thus sending his limbs flying everywhere.

The scene changes and shows a Diamond dog was brutally sliced in half by a bloody machete sending blood everywhere while a psychotic laughter was heard. The scene changes again showing another Diamond Dog as he's spine was broken in half by Jonathan as he continues to slaughter the rest of the slavers mercilessly and continues laughing like a madman.

(Video ends.)

“*Sigh* You really need to read the dictionary more especially the second meaning for a servant. Also do I even look banged up or weak to be Luna’s slave?”

"Okay point taken. We may have meet in unfriendly terms. Anyway, Names Evan. Captain of Zeon Squad." He introduced.

“Saber, King of knights and this is my friend Princess Luna.”

“Retired Princess thank you very much, until my vacation day is over I prefer to be called Luna.”

"I hope you are not like my Luna in my world who tried to kill us and stone us like her sister due to our appearance and Luna nearly sell Jonathan like some sort of exotic animal which isolated him in the dark for three straight months causing him to lose his sanity and turning him into what he is now!" Evan said angrily.

“.........Excuse me while I go get my sister so she can be informed about this.” Luna said trying to keep her composure as she teleports off.

“Be prepare for Celestia in rage form after hearing what your Princesses did to you guys, also you wouldn’t mind if my Celestia bitch slap yours do you?”

"Let me get my video camera ready." Lui said.
Moments later. Luna, Celestia, Caster, Gilgamesh, and Nightmare Moon appeared before them. everyone was surprised to see the new displaced, well mostly Nightmare Moon who eyed them with sparkles in her eyes. Celestia on the other hand was pissed.

“So….you must be the robots that Luna told me about I take it?” Celestia asked.

"Yes." Evan answered coldly sending shivers down Gilgamesh, Nightmare Moon and Caster's spines.

“Mind taking me to your Celestia then? I want have a little…..talk with her.” She asked as her mane and tail started burn the same color as the sun.

"That could come later as my team could use a small vacation here though." Evan replied.

“Aw come on! So far when a displaced comes here and tells me that their Celestia stoned them or something. I never get the chance to beat the crap out their Celestia or Luna.” Wined Celestia as pulled out a pair of gloves. “Plus I never got the chance to use these bad boys that Nightmare Moon made for me yet.”

"You'll soon get to alright but we need a vacation. You can tell that Lui here is really stressed out right now." Evan said and gestures to Lui who is visibly twitching.

“Fair enough I guess. Do whatever you want here in my kingdom, just don’t kill anypony in Ponyville.” Celestia said as she wanders off towards Twilight’s castle. “Call me when you’re ready, till then I’ll be raiding Twilight castle for food.”

"Sure and the others should be here any moment now." Lui said and on cue a portal opens and a bus in the color of a banana hits Celestia and stops in front of Gilgamesh.

"Special delivery. One green and giant yellow banana!" Jack announced.

"Glad you guys could make it." Evan said.

"Darn right we are." Jack said excitedly and tosses a cooler full of Vodka bottles.

Celestia kicks the bus from off of herself. “To a normal pony in Canterlot this would of killed them.” She said as she pops her shoulder back in. “But if my father thought selling me into slavery would kill me, what makes you think a bus would?”

"You way in the bloody way Wanker!" Shawn said and Jonathan appears behind Shawn and slams dunk him into the ground.

“Saw that coming.” Said Caster. “Then again unlike most of the displaced Celestia are weak, but unlike our Celestia it’ll take more than that to bring her down.”

“Indeed.” Luna agreed. “But I give you credit for that sneak attack though. I would of gone with an energy beam or a giant robot fist to the face, but meh.”

"We've done worse." Mark said while stroking a pink mustache on his face.

“So do you guys just attack any Celestia and Luna whenever you get summoned?” Asked Nightmare Moon.

"This is our first getting summoned by a fellow displaced." Evan said.

“Word to the wise. Best not do that or you’ll get the displaced in their world in trouble, or get in trouble with their displaced. And trust me on this you don’t want to piss them off, especially those that are stronger than you.”

"We'll try." Evan said.

“Also I believe your friend owes a certain white alicorn princess an apologie?” Nightmare moon pointed at Celestia who was cracking her neck in boredom.

"Sorry about that." Jack said.

“Next time do a better job at doing something like that. You only broke my arm with that attack.” She said as she walks off towards the castle. “I expect you break more than just my arm the next time you do that, but anyway call me when I can punch your Celestia.”

"That I can promise you that." Evan said.

"You guys brought the simulator with you?" Lui asked.

"Yup." Marcel said and pulls out a small box before pressing a big red button on it as suddenly transform in a large plasma TV screen with a gaming platform and 10 seats were attached to it.

“Fancy I’ll give you guys that much.” Said Gilgamesh.

"Yeah whatever." Lui said and activates the TV and shows Tyler being chased by a fat demon.

“Well….That was something.” Said Saber trying not to laugh along with her friends.

"Fuck you guys!" shouted Tyler.

“What was that?” Asked Caster.

"Fuck you." Tyler said and takes out a pizza launcher and shoots Pepperoni pizza at her face.

“Yay free pizza!” Caster said as she started to devour it.

"Wait that pizza is rigged with a bomb in it." Lui said.

“What?” A small explosion went off as Caster burp and a small smoke cloud came out from her mouth. “Spicey, but still good.”

"I'm surprised that you survive that shit." Tyler commented.

“I’m the legendary spirit Tamamo-Na-Mae, It’ll take more than that to kill some like me seeing how I’m classified as a god.”

"But what happens if you die?" asked Lui

“Oh then will just come back thanks to Grail-kun. Legendary Heroes are spirits of the legendary heroes from the past and future.”

"You mean like this." Jonathan asked then grabs Gilgamesh and stabs her several times with his machete and again stabs her with his chainsword and activates it which shreds her guts in juice and toss her away and shoots her with his pistol.

Gilgamesh appeared behind Jonathan with a pissed off expression on her face. “Okay first of all don’t ever do that to me again, and second if you do do that to me again.” Gilgamesh snapped her fingers a gold portal appeared behind her with weapons sticking out of it. “I’ll unleash the gate of babylon on your ass, and I know for a fact that my weapons can pierce through your armor and any techno stuff you used as a barrier.”

" We're kind impervious to any kind of magic." Lui said.

“Who said they were magic.” Said Caster. “Gilgamesh’s Gate of Babylon is an unlimited inventory of weapon type Noble Phantasms.” She then grab a crimson color spear and made a small scratch on Jonathan’s armor. “Remember what Nightmare Moon said? There are displaced who are stronger than you. Oh and the weapon I pulled out was Gae Bolg the spear of barbaric impalement.”

"Really and by the way Jonathan is a displaced version of the infamous Jason Voorhees." Jeff said.

“Still doesn’t mean they won’t find a way to keep him down for good. Hell we meet a displaced named Kat Shifter who can wipeout an entire planet with the powers of gravity. Imagine what would happen if you pissed her off.”

"The results will be catastrophic." Lui answered.

“Indeed so do not do what you did to Celestia or Saber to Kat Shifter. Otherwise you’re fucked.”

"Got it. Also I heard you girls need training right?" Lui asked.

“So…..do I get to meet your Celestia?” Asked Celestia appearing behind Gilgamesh.

"Soon but your servants need some military training though." Evan said. "They are strong but with the necessary training and discipline. They are a force to be reckon with."

“Hate to break it to yeah, but they already have a drill sergeant on that.” Said Luna.

"Maybe so. But what happens if a hostage situation was started by a group of terrorist. You think you can go in there all guns blazing. No. I handled a lot of this situations in the Republic." Evan said.

“Well unlike your world, this world is pretty much at peace.” Said the Grail appearing behind the zaku’s without them knowing. “After looking into Celestia’s background…..let’s just say after her father sold her she became a force to be feared with. Why else would Discord and Chrysalis be running Canterlot while she’s on Vacation?” The Grail the appeared next to Evan. “Also I’m their drill sergeant and I decline your request to train them for a few reasons.”

"And those reasons are?" Evan asked.

“Legendary souls of the past can’t learn any military skills and they can’t use any weapons other than their own. Only souls of the future can learn stuff like that seeing how they live in a techno world and stuff. Also this world is like that a little the medieval ages a little, some ponies don’t even have TV’s here.”

"That is understandable." Evan said.

“Plus I prefer not have a bunch of crazy ponies with guns in their hands, military skills that can kill you, and act like a group of terrorist back in the human world of earth where you all originated from.”

"Maybe so." Evan said.

“My answer is still no.”

"I understand. " Evan said.

“Good now if you’ll excuse me I have something important.” Within a blink of an eye The Holy Grail Vanished.

"Hey you girls want to try the simulator?" Asked Mark.

“No!” Yelled Gilgamesh & Saber.

"Why?" He confusingly asked.

The two servant’s looked at each other, then at Caster who was watching something on TV. “Caster that’s why.”

"Don't worry the game will not allow you or Caster to use your powers as it only transport your mind into the game." Lui explained.

“There’s a reason why we don’t let Caster into simulators like that, mostly because…….ever heard of the 4th wall thing that Pinkie Pie does?” Asked Saber.

"Oh that. We bump into that 4th wall thing a lot. Yet it was sort of funny." Lui said.

“Well imagine that, but 5x worse seeing how Caster is an idiot and has the powers of a servant god mix with childishness. Now if you think about bring Caster or any of us in simulator is a good idea then you have never seen how powerful we can be.”

"That will be insanely hilarious." Lui said and sees Caster strapping herself into one of the simulator seats.

“Let the madness begin!” Caster yell laughing like a mad man.

“I’ll go get medical kit.” Said Luna as she walked off.

"Let's do this!" Tyler shouted and strapped himself to the simulator seats followed by Jeff, Jonathan, Tyler, Evan, Marcel, Lui and Sark.

“Should I warn that whatever happens in the simulator world that it’ll hurt them in real life if they fight Caster?” Asked Saber.

“Be my guess, but I’m going in there. Not after what happen last time.” Said Gilgamesh.

“You mean that pervy dream with the tentacles?”

“.........”

“Oh…..”

"Anyway let's get this show on the road!" Tyler yelled out and Mark sneaks up Saber and Gilgamesh then pushes them into the seats as he strapped them up to the seats and his the start button.

“Bastards.” Said Saber.

Loading....

Map: Nuke Town.

Everybody spawns in the simulator and heard Jeff spoke in a deep British accent.

" Free for all. Shotgun only. First person. Sabotage. Team death match. Hardcore. Minecraft. Capture the flag. Take no prisoners."

"You filthy fucking wankers!" Tyler yelled out blast Jeff with shotgun killing him instantly but Jonathan appears behind him and kills Tyler with a AA -12.

"Surprise bitch! " Evan shouted and blast Jonathan and Saber with a Sawed-off shotgun.

“.......This place is weird.” Said Saber as she was unfazed by the attack.

“Well at least Caster is enjoying herself.” Gilgamesh said as she points at Caster in a tank chasing after Tyler and Mark.

“Suck my cannon bitches!!!” Yelled Caster as she fired at the two running Zakus.

“........Why can’t I have a normal relaxing day for once?”

Before Gilgamesh could reply, she was instantly killed by a headshot done by Marcel and respawns where Caster is.

"Take the fucking tank down." Tyler said and continues firing his RPG at the tank and successfully destroyed it.

“Hate to break to you guys but look behind you.” Said Saber point to the once destroyed tank was now repaired and upgraded.

“You done fuck up big time boys.” Said Caster aiming at them. “I AM YOUR GOD NOW! BRING ME ALL YOUR MUFFINS!” Caster said as she charged at the Zakus.

While Saber and Gilgamesh were watching all the chaos was happening, they notice Evan holding two Fatman bombs in his hands.

“Aw the little soldier thinks he can stop me, oh how cute.”

"Quickly spawn as many Fatman bombs as you can!" Tyler shouted while laughing and started spawning Fatman atomic bombs along with the others until they reach to a thousand atomic bombs.

“You do realise that you just made a mistake upon spawning a lot of bombs near you right?” Gilgamesh said as she saw Caster draw a circle in the air as a bomb landed on the atomic bombs and exploded.

"YOLO!" Evan shouted and hits one of the bombs and kills everybody instead map also causing the simulator to lag.

“Nice going dumbasses.”

ERROR 404.

And on cue the simulator game crashed and shuts down as everybody's mind returns to their respective bodies.

“You see this is why we don’t get near simulators like that!” Said Saber. “It’s like giving a monkey a shotgun, it will not end well.”

"It was fun though. Anyway I think it's for your Celestia to bitch smack ours." Evan said.

“FINALLY!” Yelled Celestia. “Luna, Nightmare moon. Get ready to watch me have some fun.”

“Something tells me this should be interesting to watch.” Said Nightmare Moon. “I wonder how your Celestia will react to our Celestia.”

"That will be something I will love to see in my life." Lui said and prepares his video camera.

“I’ll bring Twilight and her friends. Just in case they use the elements on you guys, they’ll be able to protect you.” Said Luna.

"Thanks." Evan said and a Warp Gate portal appears behind him.

"This should bring us to the Canterlot throne room. Oh I almost forgot to tell you that she said that the rescue mission of the Crystal Empire was a minor setback." Lui said.

“Okay…..not to sound rude or anything, but I have no idea what you are talking about.” Said Celestia.

"Nevermind." Lui said.

“I have return with Twilight and her friends sister.” Luna said as she point a thumb behind herself.

“Ohhhhhhhh you guys are really green.” Said Pinkie Pie getting up close to Lui. “How come you have one eye? Are you a cyclop?”

"Nope." Lui answered and notice Twilight staring at him with a must dissect and experiment face.

“S-so you’re a robot?” Asked Twilight getting closer to him with some drowl coming from her mouth.

"If you dare to experiment on me or dissect me, you may start a war between this Equestria and the Griffon Republic Grand Army." Lui said.

“Relax she just want to make a fake copy of you and see what makes you so awesome.” Said Rainbow Dash. “But not as awesome as me of course.”

"That kind of stuck up attitude of yours is gonna get you killed first Rainbow Crash." Jeff pointed out in a mocking tone.

“This coming from the robot that got blown up by Caster. I mean really you thought you could take her down with stuff like that?”

"That was for good fun." Jeff said.

“Really because you guys were running like little filles from tank awesome.”

“Now sugar cube let’s not make anypony mad or anything. Right now we have a job to do remember?” Said Applejack standing in between the two. “Now why don’t you two say you’re sorry and be friends okay?”

“Fine…..sorry about what I said.”

"Can't hear you properly. Can you speak louder?" Jeff said.

“Ugh I’m sorry okay! Faust you’re just as worse than Saber.”

"Still can't hear you."

“Quite trolling around with Rainbow Dash and just accept her apology.” Said Caster. “Plus I wanna hurry this up so we could see the fight between your lazy Celestia vs well trained Celestia.”

"Alright. Anything for you beautiful." Jeff said. "Apology accepted."

“Yay! Friendship restored!” Said Pinkie Pie firing off her party cannon. “We so gotta have a party for you guys after this.”

"That can wait later Pinkie." Jonathan said.

“Oh Okay.”

“Alright.” Celestia cracked her neck then her knuckles. “Time to raise some hell with my alternate universe self.”

“Remember sister you can beat the crap out of her and the elements, but you can’t kill her.”

“Alright mom I’ll let Twilight deal with their counter parts, but Celestia is mine alone got it?”

"Let's get this show on the road." Shawn announced and jumps through the portal with the others.

(Band of Zakus universe, Canterlot Castle throne room.)

Today was not a good day for Celestia and her sister who was heavily bandaged from her fight against Jeff and the elements of harmony. As they still could not find where the Zakus are even their HQ.

"Once I find those buckers, I'm going to beat them to a pulp." Rainbow Dash said while cracking her knuckles.

"And how just are we going to find them sugarcube? It's not like they’re going to appear from a portal." Applejack said and on cue a portal appears out of nowhere and Evan was to first to exit out of the portal until the rest exit out of the portal. But what shock them the most, they see their alternate selves and Princess Luna and Princess Celestia including Nightmare Moon, Saber,Gilgamesh and Caster.

“So…...This is my alternate self?” Asked Celestia as she looked her up and down. “Damn she’s fat.”

"WHAT SORT OF TRICKERY IS THIS!!??" Princess Luna shouted in her royal canterlot voice.

“Lower your voice other me, we’re still inside a building.” Said Luna.

“And this isn’t trickery, but if I’m not mistaken one of you should know about the multiunivese theory correct?” Asked Nightmare Moon fixing her steampunk glasses.

"Ppft please. The multiverse theory is just a myth or one of your lies Nightmare Moon. " She spat.

“You keep a hidden stash of video games under your bed whenever you are done with your work with the royals at night.” Said Luna. “You also eat Celestia’s special cake whenever she leaves for royal duty and blame it on Blueblood.”

"THOU ARE LIES!!!" She shouted back with her face red from embarrassment.

“Then how come your face is red if I’m lying?”

"OOOOOHHHHHH THE BURN IS SO REAL!!!" The Zakus shouted out.

“Ha! You just got burn by your alternate self!” Rainbow Dash said while laughing along with her friends who were trying not to laugh.

"WE SHALL SLAY YOU WITH THY BLADES!!"

“Easy there hot head. I doubt you want to open up those wounds you have there.” Said Celestia snapping her fingers to bind Luna to the couch next to her.

"UNHAND ME YOU FIEND!!!" She demanded.

“Um, I think you should take Celestia’s advice.” Said Fluttershy as she points to Luna’s bandages tuning red. “I mean if you want to that is?”

"Let me calm her down for you Fluttershy. " Jonathan said and makes his way towards Princess Luna who struggles to get away from him. Once Jonathan reaches to Luna, her punches Luna in the face a few times and lands both fist on her head thus knocking her out cold.

"There problem solved."

“Hey I wanted to do that!” Said Rainbow Dash.

“I guess that’ll keep her from injuring herself, but I think that our alternate selves are angry at that.” Said Rarity.

"Just who are you ponies." Twilight said angrily and glares at her alternate friends and herself.

“We’re you.” Answered Twilight. “Just with different personalities, after all we are from different universes.”

"Enough!" Princess Celestia said. "You maybe from another universe, but I will stop you from hurting my little ponies."

“Look Sunbutt, personally I don’t give a flying buck about your ponies. All I care about is beating the crap out of you for what you did to these guys.” Celestia said pointing at the Zakus.

"They are a threat to my ponies and must be stop. Don't you understand, they could kill millions of innocent lives if they roam free!"

“And that gives you the right to try and kill them? From hearing their side of the story they didn’t do any of that and they would of helped you if you didn’t stoned them! You must be the biggest idiot I have ever met. Who would turn somepony into stone just because of what they look like or a mistake they accidently did!”

"Yeah she's right bitch!" Marcel said.

“And you six are suppose to be the elements of harmony. The ponies that spread friendship to all, but it seems you only spread friendship to ponies and no one else. How sad that you would follow this prick of a princess like a bunch a sheeps! Think for yourselves just like my student and her friends do you racist jerks!”

“She does have a point there sugar cubes.” Said Applejack.

“Not cool of you all to do that to them.” Said Rainbow Dash.

"I'm afraid we can't solve this in a peaceful manner. Twilight you know what to do." Princess Celestia said.

"You got it Princess." Twilight said and the elements of harmony activates.

"I don't think so." Evan said and whips out his beam revolver then switches it to stun and shoots Twilight causing her to fall to ground unconscious.

“I’ll be taking that.” Said Twilight levitating her alternate self’s element to her, then wakes her up with a bucket of ice cold water.

"Huh what just happen? " She asked.

“You got knocked the buck out Twily.” Giggled Pinkie Pie. “But don’t worry about your element, we’ll hold on to it until you are more open minded like us.”

"I'll take that." Jonathan said and takes the element out of Twilight 's magic and crushes it in his hands.

“Well that’s one element down five to go.” Said Gilgamesh.

"Yup." Shawn said and notice Celestia getting ready to fight Princess Celestia. "Now the good part is starting. "

In an instant, Lui takes out his video camera and started filming.

“Make sure you make me a copy of this okay?” Celestia asked as cracked her knuckles. “Twilight make sure your other selves don’t get involve in this fight I’m gonna have with my other self.”

"Yes Celestia." She answered.

“Good.” She turns her attention at Celestia. “Time to knock a bitch down a peg or two.”

"Fight!" Jeff announced and on cue both Celestia charge at each other.

“Try to keep up fatty.” Celestia said as she punched her other self in the face knocking her back a few inches away.

Princess Celestia quickly recovers and fires a beam of magic at Celestia. Who in turn deflected the blast like it was nothing.

“Wow…..Sister your alternate self is weak.” Said Luna.

“Well what do you expect when you been inside the castle for 1,000 years eating sweets and not working out.”

"I will defeat you." Princess Celestia said as she summons an enchanted Warhammer.

“Oh please like something like that is gonna hurt me.”

Princess Celestia quickly charges at her and slams her Warhammer at Celestia. Celestia didn’t move out at all as she took the attack to face. Upon impact the Warhammer scattered into pieces. “You call that a weapon? My servant Gilgamesh have better weapons than that.”

"SISTER!" Princess Luna shouted as she recently woke up.

“Gilgamesh if you may?”

“Got it.” four gold portals appeared around Princess Luna as gold chain spewed out, and wrapped themselves around the alicorn. “Don’t bother trying to use your magic, any being with any kind of divinity will be bind and powerless to move or use magic.”

"Thou are monsters!" Luna said in rage.

“If we were monsters why haven’t we killed you and destroy your home?”

"Thou are waiting for the right time to conquer all of Equestria once you have defeated us monster!" Princess Luna spat.

“We’re both rulers of Equestria stupid, the only difference is that we’re on vacation and you're just a bunch of jerks towards non ponies.” Said Luna.

"Buck you monster. Once I get myself out these chains, I'll make you suffer my wrath! Like how I did to the changeling hives!" Luna threatened.

“Good luck with that jerkface, after seeing how strong you all are I doubt you can back those words up.”

Gilgamesh notice Jonathan walk straight to Princess Luna and grabs her in the neck choking her.

"Shut the fuck up bitch. I saw what you did to those innocent changeling colonies you destroyed. The once asked you ponies for help yet you just push them away and destroy them in their weakened state. What's worse that you went into the hatchery where the pregnant are and killed them mercilessly!" Jonathan yelled and tightens his grip on Luna's neck. "I will never forget what you did to me in the past also."

“........Mother and father must be really proud of you two.” Said Celestia.

"Enough! I will not let you harm my sister!" Princess Celestia shouted in rage and charge straight at Jonathan.

Celestia grabbed the charging alicorn by the tail and slammed her onto the ground. “Your fight is with me remember?”

"I will not kneel before you!" Princess Celestia spat as she struggles to stand up and fires a Nova beam at Celestia.

Celestia once again deflected the attack and pulled Princess Celestia close to her. “Is this best you got? I’m only using 10% of my strength and I’m taking this fight seriously!” She then punched her in the stomach and blast her with a magical beam of her own.

"I Will not lose to you!" Princess Celestia said and turns herself into her Nightmare form but quickly notice a small ball rolling over to her and and exploded thus sapping all of her Nightmare form magic from her and makes her return to her original form.

"That's a magic sapper grenade, a grenade which I invented only to be made to combat you and your sister and also the side effects are a month with no combat magic, nausea and high fever which will put you in bed for three straight weeks." Lui explained coldly.

“Hope you have price tag alternate me? Because you’re about to get owned BITCH!” Celestia yelled as she punch her alternate self in the face sending her flying past this world’s mane six, through a few walls, and into the end of the hall’s wall. “So was that a good one liner to a finishing move?” She asked turning the the Zakus and her friends.

"Fuck her right in the pussy!" Tyler answered.

“I’ll take that as a yes.” She said as she appeared in front of the fallen princess. “You are a pathic excuse of an alternate universe of Celestia.”

"Oh you don't say." Mark said in a sarcastic tone.

“How can you call yourself a ruler if you can’t even fight against someone powerful than you?” She then pick the alicorn up by the throat. “When I look into your eyes all I see is victory. No hardship, no suffering, nothing. And that what I hate about rulers like you.”

"Finish her!" Jeff announced.

“I should kill you and your sister for all the stuff you have done…...but I won’t.” She then dropped her alternate self to the floor. “I’ll let this world displaced humans deal with you. You’re nothing more than a princess who wants everything to go her way and only care for yourself. You two are monsters.”

"We're done here. Let's go." Evan said and a portal opens behind him.

“What your done?” Said Rainbow Dash sucker punched her other self in the face. “I was actually enjoying myself beating…..well my other self.”

“Aw but I wanted to see the fight with the elements.” Said Caster. “This fight is getting interesting. So far our Twilight, Applejack, and Fluttershy just beat your world’s Twilight, Applejack, and Rarity.”

"I think they had enough." Evan said and notice the enemy mane 6 scared out of their minds.

“Let this be a lesson to you Elements of Harmony, think for yourselves and not follow somepony blindly.” Celestia said as she walked the portal.

“You all should be ashamed of yourselves.” Pinkie Pie said to the Zakus Luna and Celestia.

“I would be ashamed to be your student if I was your Twilight.” Said Twilight.

“Not cool even if you are a princess.” Said Rainbow Dash.

“I will say this I do love you clothing, but is looks awful on a bunch of uncouth princesses like you two.” Said Rarity.

“I have to say you two are scum compare to most of the ponies I seen.” Said Applejack.

“How can you kill those baby changelings you monsters? What would your parents think of you two if they saw what you did? They should feel ashamed for giving birth to two uncaring ponies.” Said Fluttershy.

“I have read this world’s Nightmare Moon, and you two are just as worse as her.” Said Nightmare Moon.

"Let's move." Evan said and enters the portal followed by the rest of the group.

A few minutes pass, a portal opens up as the Zakus were the first to exit followed by the royal sisters, mane 6, Gilgamesh, Saber, Caster and Nightmare Moon but what got the ponies attention, they saw tanks, mech suits, aircraft and Elfen Spiders engineers who staring at them.

“Wow…..this is more awkward then the time I got drunk and woke up in bed with Discord and Chrysalis.” Said Celestia.

"Well welcome to Zeon HQ." Sark said.

“Impressive HQ.” Said Nightmare Moon. “I gotta make a base like this during my spare time.”

"Yeah but these base isn't fully operational right now since the Elfen Spiders clan move in here but we pretty much nearly wipe them all out."

“Need any help with that? I could have Gilgamesh deal with them.” Said Celestia.

"No need because they work for us now since they defected from their clan already and I already gave them their pay cheques. " Evan said.

“Oh okay.”

"So I guess you guys have to go now?" Lui said.

“After what happen in Canterlot and dealing with…...it. I just want to drink then hit the hay.”

"Till we meet again my friend." Evan said and shakes Celestia hand lightly and turns his attention on Gilgamesh, Saber and Caster. "We'll if you need our help, just give us a call."

“Same goes for you if the princesses try something stupid.” Said Saber as she hands them their tokens.

"Thanks. And I think Jeff Have has something to say to you." Evan Said

“What is it?” Asked Caster.

"Well....You see I... Why is it so goddamn hard!"

"To hell with it." Jack said and pushes Caster causing her to fall on Jeff. And Jeff finds Caster kissing him and in an awkward position.

“Well that’s something.” Said Saber trying not to laugh.

Caster pulled herself off of Jeff and gave Jack a death glare. “Okay I’ll say this Jeff you’re cute and all, but I’m not really into the whole metal robot thing. Nothing against you or anything, but it’s kinda hard to love someone that isn’t human. Plus I’m more of a femboy chaser if you catch my drift.”

"Understandable." Jeff said

“But we can still be friends that blow stuff up right?”

"Yup." Jeff replied happily.

“Sweet!”

“Feel free to come to our world if you want to get away from this world. My kingdom will accept all displaced humans, ponies, changelings, etc.” Said Celestia. “Just as long as you don’t kill anypony…..well except for Blueblood you can kill him if you want?”

"I will think about that offer." Evan said and Lui opens a portal behind Saber. "Till we meet again my friends."

“Till we meet again.” She said as she and her friends walk into the portal leaving the Zakus world.

And after that the portal closes.

(Heroes of Equestria universe)

“Well that was an interesting event wouldn’t you say?” Asked Gilgamesh.

“Indeed, it was even more fun beating the crap out of my alternate universe self. Too bad the robots had to but in, I was really hoping to fight her in that weird form of hers.”

“I’m pretty sure you would of won it. What surprises me is how the mane six were able to beat the Zakus mane six.”

“Rule number 234. All ponies within my kingdom will learn how to fight, not to mention that I sent Twilight and her friends to Neighpon to learn how to fight in case the elements of harmony are destroyed or fail to work.”

“Smart move. I bet that would surprise the other versions of Equestria if their Celestia is a racist jerk.”

“Yeah it would.” Celestia took a few gulps from her drink. “I may not be the perfect Celestia, but I’ll be damned if I’m just gonna sit back knowing that displaced humans are being stoned just because of the way they look or killed somepony by accident.”

“You really hate the idiotic, lazy, peaceful, only care for her ponies kind of Celestia’s do you?”

“A true ruler must know what it like to lose, to know what it’s like to be nothing. Those who were given everything they want don’t deserve to be called a king, a queen, a prince, or a princess.”

“I take it you had a fucked up childhood?”

“When your father sells you to an enemy country’s leader to be their sex slave just to stop a war, and banish you sister to the moon just because she want to save her older you tend to have a different mind set.” Celestia took another swing from her drink before looking back at the moon. “During that time after I freed myself from slavery. I pretty much roam the earth training, helping others, and learning from other ponies and creatures. It was fun really, I even found a spell to free my sister from the moon.”

“So you two roam the earth for the past 1,000 years?”

“Yeah until my father died from a food poisoning thanks to Chrysalis, and after beating the crap out of some royals that thought that I was not suited for the throne. I pretty much became Princess of Equestria along with Luna.”

“......I don’t know what to say.”

“If I was given a chance to relive my life again if I end up dieing from old age or killed by somepony. I would take it without a second thought.” Celestia pulled herself up from the couch and began to walk to her room. “Welp good night Gilgamesh.”

“Yeah…..good night Celestia.” Gilgamesh said as she herself vanished into gold dust and made her way to her room.

(Band of Zakus universe)

"You think we're going to see them again?" Lui asked.

"Who knows." Evan said and looks at the starry night. "But I know this isn't the last time we'll see them."

"You're right about that alright." Lui said

"But this is just the beginning old friend." Evan replied. "But soon we will meet more displaced in the future."

"Agreed."

"C'mon let's go and get some shut eye." Evan said.

"Yup time to hit the hay." Lui said and gets up then he enters the base followed by Evan but he stops and looks up and stares at the starry night.

"Till we meet again my friends. And we will be waiting to answer your call." Evan muttered and enters the base.

(Day 1)
[Morning]

As the digital sun rose from behind the school, the light from the sun shined it’s light onto the sleeping servant. In a split second, the servant that was laying on the ground opened her eyes as she only had one question going on in her mind. “W-Where the hell am I?” She asked as she tried to pull herself up. As she lifted herself up from the floor of the room she was in, she started to scan the area she was in. From what she could tell, she was in some kind of high school classroom that you would usually see in japan. As the Saber continue to scan the room, she soon notice a familiar pony sleeping with her head down on the desk. Walking up to the pony to get a better look, it none other than Rarity’s little sister, Sweetie Belle

“Hey, you okay?” She asked as she lightly shook the unicorn to knock her hand away from her.

“Five more minutes Rarity. I don’t want to go to school today.” Sweetie Belle said lazily. The servant rolled her eyes as an idea came into her head. Walking over to the desk in the front of the classroom, the servant pulled out a paper bag and began to fill it with air. Once the bag was full of air she preceded to walk over to Sweetie Belle, aimed the bag near her head, and slammed her hand on i,t causing it to pop. This caused the unicorn to fall out of her seat and onto the floor face first.

“Ow! Why the hell would you do that!?” Sweetie Belle asked as she got up and glared at the knight.

“You wouldn’t wake up, so I decided to the best next thing.”

“By scaring me half to death!?”

“It worked didn’t it?”

“Whatever, just don’t do that ever again.” Sweetie Belle said as she looked around the room they were in. “So where are we?”

“We’re in a classroom. Mainly a high school that you would see in neighpon.”

“Did we get sent to neighpon in our sleep?”

“Maybe, then again I wouldn’t know seeing how I don’t use magic like that.”

“Then how are we supposed to get back home then? I can’t magically teleport us back, I haven’t learn how to even teleport even small objects.”

Saber walked over to the window of the classroom causing her eyes to widen in shock at what she sees. “You might want to get over here kid.” From what Sweetie Belle could tell the sky was filled with nothing but ones and zeros, almost as if they were in a video game. Only this one had NPC’s that looked like they were able to move and talk like a normal person does

“We’re not in Neighpon.”

“Five bits says that Holy Grail thing has something to do with this.” Sweetie Belle said.

“Oh good, you’re both awake.” said a mysterious feminine voice filling the room. “For a second there I thought I had to force you both to wake up myself.”

“Who’s there?” Saber asked as she looked around the room to find out where the voice is coming from.

“Oh, where are my manners. Give me a second to make myself noticeable.” The voice said as a flash of light filled the room for a second before fading away. Standing on top of the desk was a woman with blond hair and was wearing elegant armor similar to Saber.

“There we go, much better.” The young woman said as she begun to stretch her back.

“Wow, she almost looks like you Saber. Only much younger and more refine.” Sweetie said, only for Saber to smack her upside her head.

“Care to explain who you are?” Saber asked.

“I’m Ruler, the overseer and watcher of the Holy Grail Wars.” Ruler said as she bowed to the Servant and Master. “I have to say, this is the first time a pony actually join in on this grant event.”

“Holy Grail War?” Sweetie Belle asked, not understanding what was going on.

“The Holy Grail War is pretty much self explanatory. You and your servant are here to claim the Grail for yourself. The Holy Grail is said to have held the blood of a savior and has the power to grant wishes. Sadly the original has been lost to time and all that remains are base counterfeits. But no matter. The Holy Grail for which you are fighting is a different object altogether. Early on, the Holy Grail War was the name given to the ceremony magi held to gain the Grail. In truth, it was a bloody melee from which the sole survivor would be granted the Holy Grail.” Saber said as she looked back at Ruler. “We’re basically stuck here until we either win or die?”

“Spot on Saber.” Ruler said as she handed them a bag. “Inside the bag are some items that you’ll need to start out with. Careful not to waste it all in a day.”

"You have no choice but to fight your way to win this bloody war. If not….well….”

“I’m only 11 years old! I don’t even know how to fight! I haven’t even gotten my cutie mark yet!” Sweetie Belle said as she began to panic and run around the classroom. Only for Anna to grab her by the collar as she ran by her.

“And what would happen if we chose not to fight?” Saber asked.

“Oh, then the moon cells will kill you both if you chose not to fight. And when I say they will kill you.” Ruler snapped her fingers as a sharp pain coursed through both Sweetie Belle’s and Saber’s body, causing them the kneel down on the floor. As they looked up to see Ruler, she was hold a mirror large enough for the Master and Servant to see what caused the pain to their bodies. “You notice those patches of black spots on you both? That’s the Moon Cells killing you slowly and painfully. Don’t worry, they’re not gonna kill you.” She said as she snapped her fingers making the black patches go away. “But this will happen if you lose or refuse to fight in the holy grail war.”

“Your evil.” Sweetie Belle said gasping for air.

“I’m just an overseer of the war. I’m only here to make sure that no one breaks the rules and stuff. Not my fault fate decided to do this to you.”

“But we never agreed to any of this!” Sweetie Belle yelled.

“Like I said, blame fate for what’s happening to you.” She said as she notice Saber glaring at her. “Hey, look on the brightside. At least when you win, you get a free wish and you’ll be able to go back home.”

“What do you think Saber?” Sweetie Belle asked, looking at the servant.

“We pretty much have no choice but to fight kid.” Saber said, scratching the back of her head. “Geez, talk about fucked up situations.”

Sweetie Belle sighed at this as she looked back at Ruler. “If we do this, can we really get back home?”

“Of course. Once you are the last ones standing, you’ll claim the holy grail as your own and you will be returned home. That is if you actually win.”

“So what do have to do to win?” Saber asked.

“Simple really, all you have to do is survive all seven rounds at the end of each week. Make it past that and you’ll be free to leave.”

“So, where do we stay?” Sweetie Belle asked.

“Have a look around your new battlefield first before going into your room. You might want to explore the campus before the war starts. Hell you might meet some interesting people here.”

“Okay…” Sweetie belle said before holding Anna hand. “Come on Saber, let go.”

“Enjoy your stay here!” Ruler said as she waved at the duo. Only for Anna to flip her the middle finger before they left the classroom they were in. “This should be an interesting war with these two in it.” She said as she disappeared in a flash of light. Opening the door, Sweetie Belle and Saber looked from the opposite directions of each other. From what they could tell, there wasn’t that many people walking around in the hallway.

“So what are you supposed to be?” Sweetie Belle asked as the duo walked down the hallway of the school/battleground. From what I’ve heard from Rarity, you’re suppose to be some kind of knight or something right?”

“To explain it more clearly, Servants are legendary souls called from the past or future to help their Masters win in the Holy Grail War. Only those whose deeds are acknowledged long after their deaths become legendary souls. In a way Servants are basically soldiers, there to guide and protect the one that summoned them.”

“So are all you guys the same or are you all different?”

“As per the rules of the original Holy Grail War, Servants are divided into….I want to go with seven, but depending on what war we’re in I’m gonna say eight classes. Originally, the classes of legendary souls were hidden, but I guess over time things have changed. We have Saber, Lancer, Archer, Rider, Assassin, Berserker, Caster, and Avenger.” Saber said as she showed Sweetie Belle who she was. "As you can see I am part of the Saber class. The strongest class out of all the classes.”

“You seem to know a lot about this holy grail war stuff. Have you been in one before?” Sweetie Belle asked as she pulled out a portable terminal from the bag Ruler gave her.

“I read a lot in my spare time.” She answered as she notice some of the people in the hallway looking at them strangely. Saber turned her attention at Sweetie Belle, who was gripping her hand tighter than usual. “Hey, relax kid. If anyone tries to make a move on you or something, I’ll take care of them for yeah.”

“Really?”

“Yeah, you have nothing to fear-.” Before Saber could finish her statement, her stomach began to growl. Causing her face to blush red and making Sweetie Belle laugh. “Let’s get something to eat before we continue our search around the school. Know where the cafeteria is?” She asked. Sweetie Belle pulled a map from her portable terminal telling her where the cafe is.

“There’s one down those stairs.”

“Perfect, we’ll get some food and continue our look around.” Saber said as she and Sweetie Belle walked down stairs to the cafeteria. As the two entered the cafeteria, the room fell silent as the combatants of the holy grail war looked at the duo, mainly Sweetie Belle.

“Is this going to be a normal thing whenever we go into a crowded place like this?” Sweetie Belle asked.

“Well you are a talking pony that most humans would see in a cartoon show. So you can’t blame them for being surprise at what they’re seeing.” Saber said as she and Sweetie Belle made their way to the counter of the cafe. “Excuse me ma’am, can we have something to eat?”

“Welcome to the-.” Just as the female student from behind the counter turned around, her eyes widen in surprise at what was standing in front of her.

“Um….Hi?” Sweetie Belle said, waving awkwardly. Only for her to yelp in surprise at how the human tackled her and started cuddle her adorably.

“Well….I wasn’t expecting that to happen.”

(Rooftop)

“That was weird and uncomfortable on so many levels.” Sweetie Belle said as she tried to fix her hair from what happen to her moments ago.

“Well you can’t blame her for doing that.” Saber said as she open the door to the rooftop. “You are kinda adorable on so many levels.”

“She could’ve at least ask before doing that to me. I mean really, have anypony heard of personal space?”

“They have, but when it come to cute things like you. They tend to forget about personal space. Come on, let’s just eat before we start looking around the place.” Saber suggested, only to notice Sweetie Belle looking at something. Saber looked up at the direction the unicorn filly was looking at. As she did she notice a girl with black pigtails wearing a red long sleeve shirt with a white cross on the front, a black skirt, and a pair of long black shoes.

“I’ve investigated this school from top to bottom, but there’s nothing unique about it.” The girl said, murmuring something to herself as she patted the walls and floors.

“Um...who is she?”

“Rin Tousaka. A very strong and popular girl around the school.”

“Is she dangerous?”

“Only if we piss her off.” Saber said as she notice Rin looking at them. “Crap, she sees us.”

“Interesting. Hey, you.” Rin said as she walked up to Sweetie Belle. “Yeah, you. Hmm, I haven’t checked the NPCs out much yet. Aha, I know a simple way. Don’t you move.” She said as she used her thin, delicate fingers to reach out and touch Sweetie Belle’s cheeks.

“U-Um….S-Saber?” Sweetie Belle said as her face blush slightly red.

“Imagine that. You’re warm, though you shouldn’t be. What’s even odder is that you’re some kind of humanoid like unicorn. Huh? That’s weird, seeing a NPC’s cheek flush red like that.” Rin said as she kneeled down closer to Sweetie Belle’s face, three centimeters from the tip of her nose. “Very interesting. You’re more well-built than I had expected. You look and feel real. Maybe more the most people. Though that horse look would be a problem. Maybe it a glitch in the system or something.” Rin said as she turned around.”Hey, what are you laughing at? It’s to our advantage to look into everything, even the NPCs.”

“Who is she talking to?”

“Her servant. Though I do wish I can actually see him or her.” Saber said as she squinted her eyes. “All I can see is a invisible silhouette.”

“Huh? She’s a master too? No...a master should be more….well human than horse.”

“Hey! I take offense to that!” Pouted Sweetie Belle. “And I’m not a horse, I’m a pony.”

“W-Wait. That means when I felt up…..Oh dear….Ugh, how embarrassing.” Rin said as she quickly turned around. “Shut up! I can make mistakes too, you know! Don’t call me a pedophille! It could have been my imagination. Or a hacker-such a detailed NPC would rarely exist otherwise.” She said turning her attention back at Sweetie Belle and Saber. “Anyway, you’re to blame for being so stick out like that.”

“How is being a pony my fault you couldn’t tell the difference of a human and a pony?”

“I-I don’t know, it just is!” Rin said as she went back to exploring the area of the rooftop. “Now leave, I have more important stuff to do.”

“Geez, what did you have this morning, a bowl of bitch cereal?” Saber commented.

“No, it’s called minding your damn business cereal. Want some bitch slap toast with that?”

“.....We should go some place else to eat Sweetie Belle.” Saber suggested.

“Can’t you take her on by yourself?”

“I can, but the SE.RA.PH. won’t allow fighting in the school. So we might as well find someplace else to eat.”

[Evening]

“Well that could’ve gone better.”

“Like I said before Sweetie Belle. Be prepare to see people look at you like that for a while.” Saber said they made their way downstairs to the first floor. As they made their way to the first floor, they were stopped by a man with brown short hair who was wearing a uniform that was close to a pastor of a church.

“Congratulations. You have been deemed worthy to be a participant in the Holy Grail War.” The man said as he bowed to the servant and her master. “ I am Father Kotomine. Supervisor of the holy grail war. As of today you and you fellow magi have been give the honor of fighting in the arena down the hallway behind you two.”

“Arena?” Sweetie Belle asked.

“The war is run as an elimination tournament, with the grail being awarded to the last person, or in this case pony standing. In other words, the participating Masters will kill each other until there is only one person left. Simple enough to understand, yes? Even a complete idiot should be able to understand the rules.”

“I beg to differ. My friend caster can’t follow the simplest if instruction on how to make macaroni and cheese.”

“Then your friend must be an idiot and should die off some place else.” Kotomine said bluntly. “As I was saying, Masters get a six day preparation period before the Elimination Battles, which occurs on the seventh day. I’d advise you to use the time given to devise the most efficient means of slaughtering your foe.”

“Guess talking with them is out of the option, huh?” Sweetie Belle asked, only for Father Kotomine to nod in disagreement.

“On the seventh day, you and you for will fight. The winner lives, and the loser is….deleted. If you wish to make a query, speak now. The right to ask about the rules is given to all.”

“Who are we going to fight in the first round?” Sweetie Belle asked.

“Hmm…..Give me one moment to check please.” The pastor said as she pulled up a digital screen. “...Strange. There seems to be a system error. I will locate your opponent by tomorrow.” He said as the digital screen disappear. “One last thing before you got.” Kotomine said as he reached into his pocket and handed Sweetie Belle a key. “This key will give you access to your private room on the second floor 2-B. No one but you can use that key to enter the room.”

“Thanks, mister Kotomine.”

“Well, the time for conversation has come to an end. The door behind you down the hall will lead you to the Arena. For today, concentrate on becoming accustomed to the inner workings of the Arena.” With that, Father Kotomine made his way up the hall. “May god protect you on your journey little one.”

“Um, thanks.” Sweetie Belle said as she turned her attention at Saber. “Let’s head to the arena before we call it a day.”

“Good idea.”

Arena Level 04
First Chimeric Lunar Sea

[Greed and Lust combine to burst into Brilliance. And lead onward to the sepulcher of the sea.]

Sweetie Belle and Saber entered into the arena. To what they could tell from looking around, it looked like they were inside something that you would see in dungeons and dragons, only that it took place in a sci-fi setting and all the monster were digital and cubix.

“Like in any game or if you’re in the royal guard. The Arena is where everyone is allowed to do battle whenever they feel the need to fight or train. The enemy programs created by the SR. RA. PH roam the Arena.” Sweetie Belle said, which took Saber by surprise.

“I didn’t know you know about how this arena plays out.”

“I don’t, I just read the information about it here on the terminal.” Sweetie Belle said, showing the servant the screen.

“Well seeing how this is our first time here, we might as well deal with the enemies in this small area.” Saber suggested as they made their way a few steps into the arena, only to see their first enemy.

“What is that think?” Sweetie Belle asked, pointing at the weird cube like program.

“Klein.” Saber answered as she prepared herself for battle. “I’m guessing these are some of the enemies we’re gonna be facing in the arena.”

“You sure you’ll be able to handle them by yourself?”

“Please, compare to the stuff I face with back home in Equestria this shouldn’t be a problems.” Saber said as she charged at the enemy program, and slashed past it thinking that she killed. Only to notice it spinning towards her as she quickly dodged it. “What the? That should’ve killed it.” Backing away from the Klein, Saber quickly deflected another spinning attack as she countered with an upward slash causing it to be be push back.

During this time, Sweetie Belle decided to look more into the portable terminal. While looking through it she notice a sign that had Saber’s name on it. With a press of a button, Saber’s status appeared on it. “Um, I might know why that move didn’t work.” Sweetie Belle said as she showed the Servant her status.

Status:

Saber:
HP: 320/320
MP: 92/92

Strength: 16 E
Defense: 16 E
Agility: 15 E
Magic: 13 E
Luck: 15 E

“We’re kinda at level one at the moment.”

“Oh for fuck sakes.” Saber said as she quickly dodge spring attack from the enemy program. “Six months of training down the drain only to have to start over again.” Bringing up her sword, the Klein began to spin towards the knight reading to attack her. Only for the Servant to parry the attack away and countered again with a spinning slash at the cord that connected the Klein together. Once the cord was cut, the Klein fell to the ground as it disappeared into nothingness. “Okay, I wasn’t expecting that to happen to be honest.”

“Weren’t you supposed to be strong enough the wipeout an entire mountain with just one swing of your sword?”

“I guess due to the fact that we’re stuck in this war, my strength has been reduced. Man, this is going to be a pain in the ass to deal with.”

“Guess that means we’re gonna be here for a while huh?”

“Pretty much yeah. If I had just say not to worry or thinking that I was at full strength throughout the entire week, then we would’ve lost the first round at the end of the week.” Saber said as she lifted her sword onto her shoulder. “Let’s just deal with the other two before we head back.”

Night

“Man this sucks.” Saber said as she pushed a few desk near the window to make a makeshift bed. “Not only is my strength is reduced, but most of my powers are blocked off as well.”

“This might be a problem for us later on in the week. What we need to do is figure how to unlock at least one of your powers.” Sweetie Belle said as she levitated a large cover sheet and two pillows near Saber.

“I swear. When I get my hands on that dick of a grail, I’m going to strangle him until he’s dead.”

“Well we can’t do much of anything at the moment.” Sweetie Belle said as she hopped onto the makeshift bed that they made. “We just have to win all seven rounds and then we can go home.”

“I just hope the other know where we are so they won’t try anything stupid.” Saber said as she laid against the wall of the makeshift bed. “Welp, good night Sweetie Belle.”

“Night Saber.” Sweetie Belle said as she closed her eyes and went to sleep.

Holy Grail War Arc

Week One Day Two: The Taste of Humiliation

[Midday]

As Sweetie Belle and Saber were about leave the classroom to prepare for the arena, they heard an electronic noise coming from Sweetie Belle’s pocket. Reaching into her pocket Sweetie Belle pulled out her portable terminal as she some words displayed on the screen.

: :The next combatants will be announced on the second floor bulletin board : :

“Who do you think we’re going to fight?” Sweetie Belle asked.

“Let’s just hope we get an easy one, and not something that’s impossible to defeat” Saber said as she open the door to the class as they exit the room. “We’ll just have to find out and see who we have to face.” She said as the duo made their way to the bulletin board. As they made to the bulletin board they saw their names on the white sheet of paper, next to it was their opponent’s name.

Master: Shinji Matou
Battlefield: First Chimeric Lunar Sea

“So...you’re my first opponent?” said a young but male voice coming from behind them. Looking behind them, they say young male student with royal blue hair wearing the this school’s uniform walking up to them. Mainly Sweetie Belle.

“I’m fighting against some freak that looks like a mutant horse?”

“Hey! How are calling a mutant horse you jerk!?” Sweetie Belle said, glaring at the human.

“Oh, nice come back freak. I’m surprise you even managed to qualify. But I guess here, all things are possible. Hey, you might even be the most powerful magus here.” Shinji said in a sarcastic tone. “Oh who am I kidding. We’re at different levels even though I’m a human and your a horse. But still, I should congratulate you.”

“Congratulate on what?”

“I guess being a mediocre has its advantages. You get all of these handicaps and whatnot. Keep in mind that this tournament is all about true strength, so don’t get too overconfident.” Shinji said as he extended a hand towards the filly unicorn. “Well, let’s keep things clean, okay? It should be a good fight. After all, you’re a master, too.” Sweetie Belle was hesitant at first about shaking the human’s hand. But after thinking it over she was about to shake it, only for Shinji to move his hand out of the way.

“Hey!”

“When we see each other again, it will be as enemies, freak. Don’t let your emotions hold you back.” With a flick from his hair, Shinji simply laugh as he made his way down the hall. Leave an annoyed unicorn and her servant to watch him walk off.

“....Is it wrong that I’m looking forward to kicking that colts flank?” Sweetie Belle asked.

“You’re not the only one who’s looking forward to facing him at the end of the week.” Saber said as she motion Sweetie Belle to head down stairs. “Come on, let’s get something to eat before we head over to the arena this evening.”

“Yeah, maybe eating something will get my mind off of what happen now.”

[Evening]

“Hey Saber, did we get a prize or something?” Sweetie Belle asked as she found something in her backpack.

“Not that I can think of, why?” Saber replied as she walked over to the young unicorn.

“Because I found this weird looking disc thing.” She said showing the servant a weird palm size disc. It look like it was made out of stone with five gems in it. The top one was white the two below it was green on the left and blue on the right. Below them was red on the left and black on the right. “You think it’s some kind of item for you in battle?”

“No, but I think I might know what it is.” Saber said as she grabbed the disc held it up. “Oy, whoever is owns this token, make yourself useful and appear.” Saber said as she tossed the disc into the air. It flipped twice and all the gems brighten and the token broke apart making a gate way. “And now we wait for whoever it is to come out.”

They didn’t have to wait for long. After a few minutes of waiting someone walked out of the portal. He wore a blue t-shirt and sweatpants and he was holding a cup that said ‘Because magic!’ on it. He had short blue hair and beard with a scar under his left eye. He took a sip from his cup and stopped as he looked around. He blinked and lowered his cup.

“Umm… did I miss something?” He asked.

“.....Who’s the weird looking human?” Sweetie Belle asked.

“That would be a displaced human, kinda like me only different.” Saber answered. “Though I was expecting something….different then this honestly.” Saber said as it caused the human frown.

“I’m sorry that I just woke up from a long night, I should've thought better.” He said. He drank the rest of his drink and threw the cup behind him, which disappeared in a blue flash. He then bowed to the two of them. “Hello there, my name is Jace Beleren, Master summoner, caller of elements, Knight of Mana, etc etc and you are?”

“I’m Saber, and this is my Master, Sweetie Belle.” Saber said as she point to the filly who just waved.

“Nice to meet you Saber, hello Sweetie Belle, hope you’re not bugging your sister too much.” He said.

“Of course not…..maybe.” Sweetie Belle said as her expression darken from seeing a familiar face behind Jace. “Oh great, she’s here.”

“Greetings my favorite combatants!” Ruler said as she appeared behind Jace.

“Who the hell are you?” He asked, turning around to see the woman that was almost similar to Saber.

“I’m Ruler, the overseer of the holy grail wars. You might also know me as John de arc,” She said. Jace tilted his head.

“You mean the french lady, yeah I do I never thought I would meet you but hell I’m from some place that the world where monsters are everywhere,” He told her. He then looked down and frowned. “And I’m in my pj’s, well it’s not the worse situations I been in.”

“I”ve seen worse. But this is the first time I’ve seen someone in your situation.” Ruler said as she giggled a bit.

“Care to explain why you’re here this time?” Saber asked.

“Oh, I’m here just to in form your friend here about a few rules for outsider that get summoned here.”

“Wait there’s rules? Why are there rules?” He asked with a frowned. Ruler looked him with a smile.

“Well this is a tournament/war so there are gonna be rules. Anyway for you displaced humans, here are the rules. You can assist in helping a servant and her master when it comes to fighting their opponent,.” She explained.

“That makes sense but what about other summons?” He asked.

“It depends, if they try to help the ones that summon you like give them a power boost or a way to cheat. Then I will have to kill Sweetie Belle and Saber.” Ruler said as she snapped her fingers, causing Saber and Sweetie Belle to fall to the ground as black spots started to appear on them. “Well not me, but the moon cells will kill them slowly and painfully.” Jace tilted his head a bit.

“So… no summoning creatures like this.” Jace said as he snapped his fingers. At first nothing happened. Then the roots of the ground began to come up and started to form into a begin. After a moment a creature was standing beside Jace.

“That a no-no then?” He asked.

“As long as you don’t attack anyone besides the program enemy in the arena then you can summon anything.” Ruler said as she snapped her fingers, turning Sweetie Belle and Saber back to normal. “Next rule, no hacking the system, that will get you in trouble and killed.”

“Don’t have to worry about that, I can’t hack out of a paper bag if I tried, now what about weapons what’s the rules on them?” He asked.

“Servants are allowed to carry weapons, Masters can use magic spells to help boost or attack their opponent’s servant. But you can make a weapon for the Master, just run it by the shop downstairs.” She answered. Jace nodded.

“So I can’t use spells? Spells like this one?” He asked. The creature turned to Saber and Sweetie and lifted its arm up to strike, only for it to hit a dome over them. The dome lit up and shot a blast out of it, taking the creature's arm off. Slowly the creature returned to the ground. “Or like shooting fireballs and lightning at the enemy or buffing myself?”

“You can use them, but only in the arena. Fighting outside the arena is not allowed. We’re trying to keep this building in tact without having the system fix it everytime something is damaged.” She explained. Jace snorted at that.

“Really, well if things get overboard the building might not survive long, I’m know to destroy buildings.” He said as he put his hands up. He then smiled at Ruler as if he made a joke.

“Which is why the arena is there for. Any battle outside of it will get those killed.” Ruler said as she pointed to Saber and Sweetie Belle. “You wouldn’t want the death of a eleven year old be on you consciousness forever do you?” Jace looked at her and smiled, not fazed by the idea.

“Three thing, one: No fighting outside of the arena got it, two: lady you haven’t seen what I seen and I seen shit and three,” He looked down at himself. “Give me one second.”

With a snapped of his fingers he glowed blue for a second and then there was a flash. Sweetie and Saber covered their eyes at this. When it died down Jace was standing there with a black trench coat, dark blue t-shirt, black jeans and a cane. He also had a gauntlet with five gems in it on his left hand.

“That’s better.” He look back at Ruler with a smile. “Got to look good for a fight.”

“Right…anyway. Last rule, if you kill their opponent in the arena then you all will die. The Holy Grail doesn’t like blood to be spilled before the final week.”She said. Jace frowned at that.

“Really, I guess the tournaments I been to are different to this one,” He paused for a moment. “Although they are in the Plane of Valor and there it’s an honor to be killed in battle.”

“Be that as it may, just follow the rules and you shouldn’t have a problem here. Anyway, that’s all you need to know. Enjoy your stay here until you leave.” Ruler said as she vanish into thin air.

“Well she’s a bundle of fun isn’t she.” He said with a laugh.

“She’s a dick.” Saber said as Sweetie Belle nodded in agreement.

"Indeed."

“Well this is going to be fun, so what now?” Jace asked.

Sweetie Belle was about to reply, only for an electronic chiming sound coming from her terminal. Pulling out her portable terminal, she got a notice on it saying.

: : The primary cipher key has been generated : :

“Looks like we’re going to the arena to get the first key.” Saber said.

“What’s a Primary cipher key?” Sweetie Belle asked.

“One of the two trigger keys that must be retrieved by the end of each week, if you mean to participate in the tournament.” Father Kotomine said as he appeared walking towards them.

“One of the two?”

“The arena itself will be divided into two floors. And one trigger, or cipher key, is generated per floor. So obviously, that results in two per match-up. It’s the job of the Master to go and retrieve these cipher keys.”

“Is there anything else to know about getting these keys? Is there something like a challenge to get it or is it as easy as getting a cup of water.” Jace asked

“You pretty much have to find them in the arena. You will be notified through your portable computer terminal when a trigger generates.”

“Sounds easy to do I guess.” Saber said. “Thanks for the info Kotomine.”

“Remember, Combat between Masters is prohibited in the Arena and on Campus at all times. If for some reason a fight occurs, the system will shut it down within three minutes. As a penalty, the status of any Master caught fighting on campus will be downgraded.” He told them. Jace looked at him oddly but didn’t say anything.

“I have a question and it’s not about the keys or the tournament, where can I get some food I miss breakfast.” Jace asked.

“You can get food, items, or garments at the commissary downstairs on the first floor.” The man said as he walked off down the hall. “My god protect you during the war children.” Jace looked at him as he walked.

“Children, age wise I’m older than him by a long shot,” He said out loud. He turned to Saber and Sweetie Bell with a smile. “So what’s the plan, get this key or breakfast? I think we should get breakfast first.”

“It’s evening, we already had breakfast.” Sweetie Belle said as she lead Jace to the school’s cafeteria.

“By the Maker, I haven’t been in a cafeteria in so long. This brings back memories.” He said.

“Yeah it does doesn’t it?” Saber said as they reached the cafeteria, only for every student to stare at Sweetie Belle.

“Seriously? It’s like they never seen a talking pony before.” Sweetie Bell grumbled a bit.

“It’s like they have no imagination or something.” Jace added.

“You’re seeing a cartoon anthropomorphic pony walk into a cafeteria during a war where if you lose you die. You can’t blame them for acting this way when they have a bunch of other things on their minds.” Saber said as she started walking toward the store in the cafe along with Sweetie Belle and Jace. As they walked over to the commissary counter, Jace looked at the menu to order from as Sweetie and Saber just order something to drink.

“After this, we’re going to the arena to get the trigger key.” Sweetie Belle said as begun to drink her apple juice. Jace came to sit with them as he brought a lot of eggs, pancakes, and bacon with four containers of apple juice.

“This makes me feel so glad I don’t need to eat to survive.” Saber said as she watches Jace puts some of the eggs and bacon into two pieces of pancake and took a big bit out of it.

“Magic, drains the hell out of you, and the night before I had to fight demonic vamps and they don’t mess around.” He told them as he made another sandwich.

“Don’t you eat Saber?” Sweetie Belle asked.

“Servants don’t need to eat. It’s more of a pleasure then a need really.” Saber said as she looks at Jace just to see him finish his meal. He smiled as he drank his juice, causing Sweetie Belle to be dumbstruck.

“How?” She asked only for Jace to shrugged.

“Again magic.” He said.

“Let’s just say magic and leave it at that Sweetie Belle. I threw logic and reasoning out the window when Caster turn the moon blue and created a castle out of lava.” Saber said as she pulled herself away from the table. “Come on, let’s head to the arena before night time comes.”

The three of them left the cafeteria and headed down the hall. Along the way Jace’s mind was burning with questions.

“So who’s the guy that we’re facing?” He asked.

“Shinji Matou, not much can be said about him but he’s pretty much a prick who’s full of himself and thinks he’s better than anyone else.” Saber said as she noticed Shinji standing in the hallway. “Speaking of him, there the prick right there.”

“Well if it isn’t the freak brigade.” Shinji said as he notice Jace. “Who’s the loser wearing that ridiculous outfit?”

“Why hello there Jackass, it’s nice to meet you.” Jace said to him. Shinji narrowed his eyes at him.

“Who are you calling a jackass nerd? I would be careful on who you insult, otherwise I’ll have my servant kick you and your servant’s ass in the arena.” Shinji said as he turned his attention back to Sweetie Belle. “So, going to get the trigger key huh? Well, it sucks to be you. I’m going in right now, too.” He said, chuckling a bit at the situation. “A total cretin like you won’t be able to find it, but good luck anyway! Hahaha!” With a cackling laugh, Shinji turned around and made his way down the hall and into the arena.

“Boy he is a prick, I can’t wait to break his nose.” Jace said as he looks at the other two.

“Immature though he may be, we cannot let such an insult pass. His lack of respect and maturity is truly disgusting.” Saber said as she cracked her knuckles. “He need to be thoroughly beaten.”

“Oh ho I like you, this is going to be fun, so we can either talk about breaking the prick body or start looking for the key or something.” Jace said as he cracked his knuckles. Sparks of electricity came of them.

“Depending how what his servant is, we might do both. Come on, we’re going to look for him in the arena.”

[Arena]

The three of them walked into the place as Jace looks around. “This place looks like something from Tron.” He saids to the other two.

“That or inside of a video game.” Saber said as she took lead. “That aura… Exercise caution everyone. That weakling Master and his Servant are somewhere nearby. But this may be a good chance to obtain information on what his servant is.” Jace nodded and bent down, Sweetie Belle looked at him.

“What are you doing?” She asked. Jace looked at her.

“Remember one of my titles, ‘Knight of Mana’ well I’m putting on my armor.” He explains. The two watched as dark winds move around him and covering him. After a moment the winds slowly stops and Jace stood up wearing armor.

“I’ve seen better armor than that.” Saber said as she summoned her sword into her hand. “Damn, but my sword is invisible as long a I’m at this level of power.” Jace looked at the sword that he was welding. Saber saw a faint white glow coming of it. Jace took a few swings from it and nodded as he shoulders it.

“Lead on Saber.” Jace said to her.

“Don’t you have some kind of spell that can find him? The arena is making it hard for me to pinpoint his location.” Jace looks at her and extends his hand out as a blue orb appear in his hand. An arrow appeared in the orb and was pointing in a direction and saw giving off a small buzzing sound.

“He’s here but not that close, the orb will start buzzing more when he gets close.” Jace said.

“He’s over there.” Sweetie Belle said pointing straight across Saber and Jace. They both look and saw him. Jace looked at the orb and shook it.

“Stupid thing, guess I can’t get a good read on him, is it the place or…” Jace muttered to himself.

“Really? It’s not that hard to find somepony when the walls are see through.” The unicorn said bluntly as she started to lead the way towards Shinji. Jace muttered something under his breath and followed, extending his magic sense to see what’s around him and the group.

“There they are; that ignoble little weasel and his Servant.” Saber said as she readies her sword.

“You’re late, freaks. While you were crawling along like the slugs you are I obtained the Trigger key!” Shinji said as he showed them the card. “Hahaha, What’s with that look? Your skills are pathetic compared to mine, so don’t be so harsh on yourselves!”

“He doesn't know when to shut up doesn’t he?” Jace asked as he looked at Saber and Sweetie Belle

“Seems like it.” Saber answered.

“And speaking of you losing, let me introduce my Servant.” Shinji said as he motion to his left as a woman with magenta colored hair with a scar running across her face wearing what appears to be an outfit that a pirate would wear during the pirate era. “I’m going to win; it’s not like it matters to me. If you can’t even get you cipher keys, you might as well accept your game over right here and now!” Shinji said as she motion his servant to attack Sweetie Belle. “Seriously, feel free to turn her into a bullet-riden corpse whenever you feel like it!”

“Okay, but are you sure you’re done gloating? I found myself enjoying your meaningless chatter.” The Servant said as she turned her attention that the group. “As you can see, when it comes to talking to others, my Master is a total social retard, right? Seeing him actually having a conversation with you, I thought we could settle this peacefully.”

“Where the hell do you get off analyzing me?! They’re my enemy! Will you hurry up and maim them already?!”

“Look at the tough guy! I have to admit I admire the fact that you’re evil enough to even have me attack a little child as well. The darkness of your grubby little soul is impressive, Shinji. Oh yes, I expect a generous reward later!” The woman said as drew out her pistols and fired at Sweetie Belle, only for Saber to block the bullets with her sword.

“You’re gonna have to get through me if you think I’d allow that to happen.” Saber said as she charged at the dual wielding pirate while deflect a few of her bullets.

“What do you think you’re doing!? Take this fight seriously or else you won’t be paid in full!” Shinji yelled.

The pirate simply rolled her eyes as she parried the oncoming attack, and countered with a shot to Saber’s leg arm. Saber pulled away only for the pirate to close the distance and delivered a powerful kick to her wounded arm and sent her flying into the arena wall.

“That’s more like! Keep kicking her ass!”

“Come on Saber, you can do it!” Sweetie Belle cheered as Saber tried to pull herself up from the floor. Jace stood there watching the fight with his arms crossed. He looked at Shinji.

“Can’t I just go over there and punch him in the face or is that against the rules?” He asked

“You can’t fight the master or kill him in or out of the arena idiot.” Ruler said as her voice echoed through the arena.

“This is what I get huh? Oh well.” He muttered as he watched the fight. “Is there anything we can do to help?”

“Ruler said that you couldn’t fight the master, she didn’t say that you couldn’t fight their servant. Just as long as you don’t kill him or her.” Sweetie Belle said.

“It’s true, though be warned. You strength and powers are reduced inside the arena. Can’t have a bunch of displaced human cheating the system.” Ruler said. Jace looked down at his hand and looked at the fight.

“Well that means that I don’t need to worry about keeping tabs on my power so…” He took his sword and whistled to the Pirate to get her attention. “Hey you bottom feeder!”

“Go fight a program or something. I’m busy with my target.” The pirate said as parried away another one of Saber’s attack and counter with another bullet to Saber’s leg.

“Seriously!? What is with you pirates using guns!?” Saber yelled as she lunged toward her opponent. The pirate smirked as snapped her fingers as four small doors appeared. As they open the barrel of a cannon appear out of them and fired upon Saber at point blank range. “Oh son of a-,” Before she could finish, Saber was engulfed in a barrage of cannon fire and explosions. She blinked just to see that she was standing somewhere else. Looking around Saber saw that she was standing beside Sweetie Bell looking at her in surprised.

“How?” She looked back at where she was standing and saw as the smoke cleared that Jace was standing there with his sword out, blocking some of the cannon fire.

“SWITCH!” He yelled as he swung at the pirate. She blocked it just for her to get punched in the stomach.

“Oh? A new challenger huh?” The pirate said as she dodge Jace’s sword with ease. “Let’s see what you’re made of little boy~.”

“Alright,” He went into a stance with his sword on his shoulder. “Let’s dance,” He said as he swung. The pirate dodge out of the way and pointed her gun at him but saw that Jace shoulder her in the chest and spun around for another strike.

“Nice trick, but you should know better than to try something like that.” With a flick of a wrist, a door appeared under Jace as a cannon ball shot out and hit him at point blank range. She smiled for a moment just as she got hit in the back of her head with a fist.

“You got to be faster than that,” Jace said in a mocking tone, “I seen kids move faster than that.” He said only for the pirate to aim her pistols at his face.

“Yet you have no idea about how stuff like you’re doing won’t help you when face a servant like me.” Just as she was about to pull the triggers, a loud air horn sound echoed into the arena as the color changed from blue to red.

“Crap...It looks like the SE.RA.PH has its eye on us. Oh well, there’s no need to take them out right now anyway.” Shinji said as he order his servant to his side while he walks past the group, only to stop for a moment near Saber and Sweetie Belle. “You know, I like seeing you grovel in the dirt like trash. Be hard enough and I might make you my underling. Who knows...I might even share some of the prize money with you. Hahahahaha!” Having saying that, both Shinji and his servant disappeared from out of the arena.

“Bastard.” Saber said as fell to the ground. “He would’ve been grass if it wasn’t for this place limiting my strength.” She said as she notice Jace walking over to her and Sweetie Belle. He kneeled down and pulled out a bag and shook out two white candies.

“Here, these should help.” He said. Saber took one of them and popped it into her mouth and chewed.From what Saber could tell upon eating it, it tasted just like ice cream.

“What are those.” Sweetie Belle asked, as Jace took the other one and popped it into his mouth.

“Special candies that I made for first aid, doesn't do a lot but it get you by until you get real help, it also a good treat for kids.” He said as he offered one to Sweetie Belle, the displaced then looked up to the roof and raised the bag. “Want one Ruler? Taste like ice cream!”

“Thanks but I don’t indulge during the war. I’m just here to watch as an overseer.” The voice said as it disappeared from the arena.

“Heh, idiot. Despite getting thrashed around I was able to gather some information upon that weasels Servant.” Saber said as she staggered back onto her feet while getting help from Jace, who didn’t seemed to look at beat up. Saber frowned at that.

“How is it that you look much more better then me? You took a point blank cannon shot for me.” Saber asked.

“What that blast? Please I seen worse and felt worst, that was nothing.” He said.

“You shouldn't do stuff like that.” Sweetie Belle said. “What if ruler reduce you to that of how Saber is during that fight. You should be risking stuff just because she allowed you have damage reduce upon you.”

“She’s right, you don’t want to piss off the Holy Grail or the Ruler/overseer.” Saber added only for Jace to looked at her and snorted.

“Who say she hasn't, with these limiters and me holding back is a bit of a drag but me fighting like that did come with some info that we can use.” He said.

“Really now?” Ruler said as she appeared behind him with the grail. “And here I thought the spell I placed on you would’ve weaken you to that of a Caster class at least.”

“You know, you should’ve just taken the damage and I might’ve let you hold yourself back. But seeing how most Displaced can follow the rules and stuff. I’ll have to make do this myself.” The Grail said as he appeared in front of Jace. “This count as your first strike buddy. Two more and I get to kick you out of the arena and have you just be a spectator.” He said as he turned his attention at Saber and Sweetie Belle. “I must say, you two are interesting for surviving three minutes with Shinji’s Servant. As a reward, I’ll give you some information about his servant tomorrow morning. Till then, seeya.” He said as he and Ruler disappeared.

“Well, that was something, at least this strike came with a plus side.” Jace said. He looked up at the roof. “Hey! I got one question, can me and Saber spar outside of the arena? Yes or No.”

“.......No bitch, you’re only allowed to spar in the arena.” Grails said in an echoey voice. “You think I’m gonna bend the rules and have you mess up my school? Now leave me be, I have to get the second floor arena ready in two days.”

“Guess that answered your question. Now come on, let’s get that cipher key.” Saber said as she tried to limp her way further into the arena, only to fall to the ground. Both Jace and Sweetie Belle quickly rush over to her and quickly helped her up..

“I think it would be better to get you look at, you don’t look so good.” He said.

“J-Just take me to the room on the second floor with the magenta colored lines on it.” Saber ordered as she felt herself slipping into unconsciousness. “Guess we’ll have to get the cipher key….tomorrow...then.” She said as her vision faded into darkness. Jace looked at Sweetie Belle and back at Saber. He sighed and picked her up, put her on his shoulder, and started to walk to the exit of the arena along with Sweetie Belle.

“I’m sorry,” he said out loud as Sweetie Belle looked at Jace. “You all were right, I was careless at that fight and look what happened, using my magic to port around in that fight made it easier for me but didn’t really make it easier for everyone.”

“Eh, I wouldn’t worry about. At least you learn from it. And that’s all that matter.” Sweetie Belle said as she walked through the exit. “Come on, we can try again tomorrow.”

“That’s true, and this fight gave us an edge in fighting the pirate and the prick.” .

“And that is?”

“We know what we are up against, and the grail said he’s going to give us some more info about who she is. So that’s another plus.” Jace said as he walks through the exit along with Sweetie Belle.

“Let’s just hope the info he give us is useful.”

Holy Grail War: Week One day Three: Primary Cipher Key

Chapter 14

Holy Grail War Arc

Week One day Three: Primary Cipher Key

Night

“You sure Saber is going to be okay?” Sweetie Belle asked as she placed a pillow under the Servant’s head and a cover over her body.

“She just needs some rest and time to heal, she’ll be right as rain after this,” Jace answered with a chuckle. “I always wanted to say that.”

“.......That was a corny thing to say…..” Jace rolled his eyes at her as he went to a table. With a wave of his hand, a few crystals the size of a one's hand appeared.

“Mind helping me with something,” He asked as Sweetie Belle walked over to assist Jace in whatever he’s doing.

“What’s with the weird crystals?” She asked. Jace pushed three of the four over to one side, picked up one, and handed it to the young unicorn. He then sat down in a chair with his back to her.

“Those are healing crystals, kinda like those gum drops from before but a bit more stronger, the three are for Saber if she needs them but the one you have is for me. I took some damage in that last fight.” He said as Sweetie Belle was going to asks him something, but stopped as he pull the back of his shirt up. She saw that he had scars and bruises on his body along with one long bloody scar that stood out. He looked over to her with a raised eyebrow. “Not afraid of a little blood are you?”

“I’ve seen worse from Scootaloo.” Sweetie Belle said as she walked up towards the human. “So how does this crystal thing work?”

“It’s like washing someone's back, just rub in the area where the wound is it the crystal will do the rest.” Jace explained. Sweetie Belle simply shrugged as she did just that, and saw the crystal glow as the wound begin to close.

“Huh, well that was anti-climatic.”

“When you see what I seen, everything is anti-climatic but dang that pirate can seriously do a number on one person even with a shield and armor.”

“Well she is a legendary spirit after all.” Saber said as she turned her head to the direction of Sweetie Bell and Jace.

“Good to see you awake, how’s your dirt nap?” He asked with a grin.

“I got shot by a fucking pirate and blown in the face by a cannon…..if I wanted to deal with something like that, I would’ve had Caster do that to me.” Saber answered as she leaned her head on the pillow her head was on. “At least I know what her possible class is.”

“A pirate class,” Jace said with a big grin as he stood up.

“......You really should head over to the library to get a good info on what the holy grail war is.” Saber said as she was about to rectify the human, only for her to notice something glowing under his shirt. “What’s with the glowing coming from under your shirt?”

Jace blinked at her as he looked down to see what she was talking about. He pulled out a necklace as It had a dog tag, a blue gem that was glowing, and a stone. “It’s a necklace if you are wondering. If you don’t know what that is then you must’ve hit your head hard when you fell.”

Sweetie got a closer look at it and saw that the stone had markings on it. “What do the marking on the stone say?”

Jace looked at her for a moment. His expression changed from a goof ball to more of a loving parent one. “It says ‘Daddy’ it was a gift from my daughter.”

“You’re a father?” Saber asked. “Never expect you to be one.”

“I been many things over my time and I doubt that it’s going to stop,” He said with a sigh as he fiddles with the blue gem. “So much has happened over the last year.”

“Welcome to the club.” Saber said as she turned around to get adjusted in her makeshift bed. “Not to ruined this moment or anything, but we need to get some sleep for tomorrow. We need to get back into the arena for one of the Primary Cipher Keys.”

Jace looked at her for a moment and headed to the door. “You two can do that, I’m going to take your advise and do some research.”

“Fair warning, the library does have info on certain things, but knowing the grail he might have taken certain books involving the servant we fought.”

“Information about anything can be useful even it it’s something small.” Jace said as he walked out of the door and closing it.

“I’m hoping he doesn’t do anything stupid.”

“I’m sure he won’t.” Sweetie Belle said as she snuggled underneath the cover and moved next to Saber. “For now, let’s just rest and get the other key in the morning.” The Unicorn said as she closed her eye along with Saber.

“Let’s just hope this doesn’t turn out bad.”

Morning

Inside the library, Jace was sitting at a table with a mountain of books around him as he continued to read one of them. He didn’t know how long he was doing this or that it was morning.

“Well someone’s been studying on this world’s history.” Ruler said as she appeared next to the human.

“I used to love history class when I was growing up.” Jace said without looking at her.

“Oh? So you’re a history nerd. Nothing wrong with that or anything, but I doubt it’ll do you any good due to the time limit on you.”

Jace simply closed the book and set it on the big pile next to him and grabbed another. “I doubt that, like you said I’m looking up this world's history it's quite fascinating really.”

“That’s the Holy Grail War for yeah. All who enter it dies and the last one standing claims the holy grail for his or her own wish.”

“Looks like it, guessing you were part of it at one point?” Jace asked.

“Only when someone broke the rules, but other then that I just an overseer that keep the war going as smoothly as possible.” Ruler said as she walked around him. “Just a heads up, you’re gonna have to leave this evening. The limit for one displaced to be in this war varies from person to person.”

“Thanks for the heads up, I just finished the last book.” Jasc said as he closed the book and set it down on the stack of books. Pulling himself up from the chair he was sitting in, he began to stretch a bit before looking at Ruler. “So are you here to say that or is there something else you wanted to add?”

“Well that and to give you some info to pass on to Saber and Sweetie Belle on the servant you got your asses handed to you yesterday.”

“Interesting, and that info would be…”

“All I can say is that she’s known for her dual wielding pistols, and was the most famous explorer throughout the seas.”

“Guess your not going to give out the name, that would be to easy for you.”

“It’s war human. Nothing is ever easy.”

“Oh well, just a thought anyway.” Jace snapped his fingers as all the books disappeared from the table and back on the bookshelves. “Let’s get this show on the road. Let’s see how that spoiled brat and pirate lady do for round two.”

“We’ll see about that.” Ruler said as she disappeared from his sigh before saying one last thing. “Sweetie Belle and Saber are in the commissary downstairs.”

Jace started walking towards where the others are. As he did, he thought on what Ruler said. “The most famous explorer throughout the seas huh, that rings a bell but what was the name, wait was there female explorers back then?”
Midday

“So that’s all Ruler said?” Saber asked as she handed Sweetie Belle her food. Jace nodded as he bit into his sandwich.

“Yup, that’s it. Have any ideas of who she is because I should know it but can’t place my finger on it.”

“If I had more info then I might be able to, but for now all I can say is that she might be either a rider or an archer seeing how she’s using pistols as a weapon."

“I have no idea what a rider is but it sounds like she should have something to ride on, but archer might be it…” Jace frowned a bit and leaned forward. “Ugh, this is going to bug me, I know the name but which one was a female explorer?”

“I doubt she’s an archer seeing how archers use bows for weapons than pistols.”

“And I’m guessing there’s no sharpshooter, so that leaves the rider. I wonder if she rides a pirate ship then?” Jace wondered.

“Possibly, but we can’t assume too much with little information we have at the moment.”

“So what’s the plan for dealing with her? What do we know about how she fights?”

“So far she uses a mix of artillery and close to mid range base like attacks

“She’s also fast too. Normally to deal with someone with range you get up close and and hit them fast so they don’t have any time to attack, but she seems to do fine up close.” Jace added as he took a sip from his apple juice.

“Then she must be a rider if that’s the case. Archers are somewhat good at close range, but their hand-to-hand combat skills are pretty slow depending on the hero that are summoned in said class.”

“So that means we have to deal with her from long range or some other way, so any ideas?” Jace asked.

“As my friend Caster would say and I quote “Eh, will wing it and see how things goes when we cross that bridge.” Saber said trying to mimic Caster’s voice.

“So we’re improvising from here? Great, that most of my plans other than blowing them up.” Jace said.

“Isn’t that a bad thing to have a plan like that?” Sweetie Belle asked.

“No.” Jace answered.

“It’s how you do it is what would be bad if it turns out badly.” Saber added as she summoned her sword into her hand, only for it to be invisible.

“I got some ideas in mind but one involves goblins and the other grease.” Jace said.

Saber and Sweetie Belle looked at him with deadpanned expression. “Should I be worry about this plan of yours?” Saber asked.

“No, one is a swarm plan and the other is to make movement restricted.”

“It could work the next time we face her, but I doubt it’ll be today seeing how they already got their key and have no reason to go back in there.”

“The only reason I can think of is that they want to taunt us some more. Which if they do, then I really want to punch that spoiled brat in the face.” Jace commented as he crossed his arms.

“You’re not the only one that wants to do that.” Saber said looked at her sword. “If it wasn’t for this place limiting my strength then I would mop the floor with him.”

“I know the feeling,” Jace said. He held up his left hand with his gauntlet which showed five gems that are some what dim. “I can feel the power is there, but I can’t tap into it which limits to what I can do. I can’t even ascend to my other forms.”

“And I’m starting to miss looking at my sword…..stupid noble phantasm making it invisible.”

“Right then, guess we have to push on with what we got.” Jace said as he finished his drink and stood up. “Well better not delay this anymore.”

“Let’s head over to the arena and get the first Primary CIpher Key.” Saber said as she and Sweetie Belle stood up. “Lord know I don’t want to wait any longer for that prick to try something stupid.”

Evening

“Okay, Shinji and his servant shouldn’t be here seeing how they already have his Primary cipher key. So we should be able to find ours without any problems whatsoever.” Saber said as she readies her sword.

“Why did you go and say that, now something will go wrong.” Jace groaned.

“Whatever, just keep a look out for the key.”

“Just saying, so what does this key look like?”

“It’s pretty much like a keycard, only inside a digital cub.” Saber answered as she took lead and lead Sweetie Belle and Jace into the arena.

“Well then let's go find a cube then.”

“Be careful not to get caught off guard by the enemy programs, they can hurt like hell if they hit you.”

“Fun but quick question, what do they even look like? I haven't seen them yesterday.” Jace asked.

“They kinda look like this.” Sweetie Belle said as she pulled out her terminal to show Jace.

“Everything here looks like something from Tron.” Jace said as they continued walking.

Saber looked over at Jace to see that his gauntlet sparked a bit and his form shifted. “Care to explain what’s going on with you now?”

“What do you mean?”

“Your gauntlet sparked and your form shifted a bit.” Saber explained.

“I have no idea what you are talking about.” Jace said as he lowered his arm as they continue on. After going around a few corners Jace’s gauntlet sparked a few times again, this time Jace saw this and kept checking it to see what's going on.

Sweetie Belle saw this going on as she watched Jace’s form changed from time to time. Some parts changed like his right arm turned into a clawed gauntlet, his clothes changed to some heavy clothing and holding some sort of spear.

“Now do you see what I was talking about?” Saber asked.

“Yeah, these sparks are concerning I’ll check them out when I get back.” Jace said.

“Just make sure it doesn’t become a problem. I prefer not to carry any dead weight.”

“Well aren’t you a ray of sunshine, do you drink sugar rainbows and own small cute kittens?” Jace said earning him a glare from Saber and Sweetie Belle.

“That’s offensive to ponies. We don’t drink sugar rainbows. We drink milkshakes and some of us own different pets.” Sweetie Belle commented as Jace looked at her for a moment then looked away before muttering something under his breath.

“I heard that smartass.” Saber said as she smacked Jace upside his head. “And watch your language, we have a under age minor in this group remember?”

“I didn’t say anything that’s offensive and I don’t think Sweetie Belle works in a mine.” Jace said with a grin.

“Minor you idiot not miner….” Saber looked next to Jace as she notice an enemy program heading towards them. “How good are you with bees?” She said point behind him as an enemy program appeared behind him.

Jace looked at the program as lightning started to course up his arms. “This will be good.” He said as he hit the ground with his fist.

“I don’t think hitting the ground is going to do anything seeing how the Crix is flying in the air.” Saber said.

Jace looked over to her with a smile and puts his hand to his ear. “Well tell me what’s that sound then?” Jace asked.

Saber and Sweetie Belle looked at one another and were about to say something until they heard the sound of buzzing. They looked over and saw some sort of cloud coming towards them.

“Saber, Sweetie Belle, I like you two to met a Jag wasp Swarm, not very tough alone but in a swarm they can tear through pretty much anything in the matter of seconds. Oh and they are really hungry.” He said as the swarm overtook the Crix.

“You do know this thing is made out ones and zeros right?” Sweetie Belle asked as Jace looked at the two of them then back at the swarm. He then saw that the Crix was flying out of the swarm with little damage done to it. Rolling his eyes, Jace snapped his fingers as a lightning bolt shot out to try to hit the Crix. Only for it to dodge out of the way and try and attack him with its stinger. Saber brought up her sword as she used to block the Crix’s attack and push it back.

“Remember, your power are limited as long as you’re in this place.” Sweetie Belle said.

Jace looked at the unicorn for a moment, then back at his gauntlet with a frown. While he was tinking with it, Saber began to fight with the Crix.

“What did I said about being dead weight?” Saber said as she quickly parried the stinger from the Crix, and countered with a vertical slash to the Crix’s body. This caused the Crix to staggering back as it quickly recovered, and began a rapid sting attack toward the Servant.

“Heads up!” Jace yelled causing Saber moved to the side as a bolt of magic shot pasted her and hit the Crix’s wing. Saber looked back and saw that Jace was holding some sort of gun that he was frowning at and muttering something at it.

“You could’ve done this sooner you know?” Saber said as she quickly moved back in front of Jace and Sweetie Belle.

Jace didn’t say anything as he opened his gun and put something into it and closed it. He looked up at the Crix and shot at it as it dodge the bullet without any effort.

Saber looked back at Jace and saw him smiling. “What are you smiling about?” Saber asked.

Jace pointed at the Crix which was trying to stay up with its damaged wing. “Trackers, do as much as any other bullet but it’s really hard for it to miss.” Jace explained as Saber quickly charge at the Crix to deliver the killing blow. Bringing her sword up, Saber brought it down onto the program as she sliced it into as it faded into dust.

“Well that was something.” Sweetie Belle said as she notice a green floating cube behind where the Crix was. “Hey, there’s the Primary Cipher Key!”

“That was easy…” Jace said as he put more bullets into his gun. “Too easy.”

“Well this is only the first week and the first floor of the arena, so stuff like this is going to be easy until the second floor.” Saber said as she walked over to the cube to open it, and grabbed the key from inside it.

“Well my time is up.” Jace said as he made his gun disappeared and looked at the two of them. “Hope you win this thing and if you see that jackass again can you do me a favor and punch him in the face for me.”

“We will. Thanks for the assistance Jace.” Saber said as Sweetie Belle hopped onto Saber’s shoulders. “If you need our assistance, give us a call.” She said as she handed Jace a keychain with a toy replica of her sword on it.

Jace looked at it for a moment then put it into his pocket. “Well see ya.” He said as he walked down the hallway as he turned to dust.

“That guy was weird.” Sweetie Belle said.

“Weird but helpful in a way. So what now?”

“Let’s head back. We got what we came for, so there’s not really anything else to get from here for the time being.”

“Yeah, let’s head back.” Sweetie Belle said as they headed towards the arena exit.

Holy Grail War: Week One day Four: Rest for the Warriors

Chapter 15

Holy Grail War Arc

Week One day Four: Rest for the Warriors

Evening

“I still don’t see why I have to continue school during the war. It’s not like any of this stuff applies to me.” Sweetie Belle said as she laid her head on the desk as the teacher continued her lecture.

“Remember class, if we can’t learn from our past mistakes, then we are doomed to repeat it.” Taiga said as she heard the bell to the school ring. “Be sure to study for the quiz next week if any of you survive. Those who don’t will be excuse!”

“Lucky for them then huh?” Sweetie belle thought as the unicorn gather her stuff. “Day four of the Holy Grail War. Only three more days before my fight with Shinji and his Servant. I hope we can win against him at the end of the week.”

“Having doubt in yourself Master?” Saber asked, causing Sweetie Belle to look around the room.

“Saber? Where are you?”

“Kinda invisible at the moment. Taiga said Servants aren’t allowed in the classroom.”

“Couldn’t you fight her to stay in here instead of being invisible?”

“And suffer the wrath of The Tiger? I think not. I prefer to have head not bit on thank you. Anyway, you seem to be a little depress. Worry about our fight with Shinji at the end of the week?” Saber asked as Sweetie Belle nodded. “Try not to worry about it that much. Whatever happens I’ll do my best to win for your sake. I prefer not to have guilt on my conscious if I fail.”

“It’s kinda hard not to think about it, but I’ll try not to.” Sweetie Belle said as she was about to leave the classroom from today’s supposed lesson, Saber appeared a few inches next to her.

“Just a heads up if you didn’t know Master, but knowledge of your enemies tactics is key. For that reason, you must drain the campus of information every single day. Or at least try to do that.”

“Seriously? As if I had enough to worry about, now I have to look up info on our opponents?”

“I know it’s a bit much. But as long as we’re in this place, we have to do whatever it takes to survive without cheating. I prefer not to have a repeat of what will happen if we fail.”

“Y-Yeah.” Sweetie Belle sighed as she made her way to the door of the classroom. “The sooner we win this, the sooner we can go home and away from all this.”

“Indeed.” Saber said as she followed the young unicorn out the classroom. As they made their way down the fall, the duo noticed a familiar person down the hall. “Well will you look at that. Ti seems our delicate little friend is engaged in some sort of dispute. We might be able to learn something to our advantage.”

“Let’s go over there and check it out, shall we?” Sweetie Belle suggested as a sly grin appear on her face.

“You know you not leading me to believing that you’re not all that innocent. But I’m not complaining at this point.” The Servant said as they secretly walked up behind Shinji.

“Have you been inside the Arena yet? Interesting place, isn’t it? I thought it was amazing at first, but it’s really pretty primitive. It’s like an ocean pulled from a story. I even saw a master who managed to summon Armstrong. Sorry, I was just messing with you. I dig the sea theme. Overall the game’s pretty well done.”

“What’s this? You actually managed to summon a decent Servant, then.” Rin said as she place a finger on her chin. “Asia’s premiere hacker, Shinji Matou?”

“You know, I may have had to take crap from you in the past, but this time the winner is me!” Shinji said with a smug expression on his face. “With her armada to back me up, I’m invincible. Nothing you can do will be able to even touch me.”

“Oho, you must be pretty confident to give out information about your Servant to an enemy, Mayou.”

“Yeah, not one of your best moments idiot.” Saber thought as she and Sweetie Belle notice Shinji’s face turn bright red as he suddenly realizes how big of a mistake he just made.

“Err...y-yeah. Yeah, that’s right! One-sided fights bore me, so think of this as a gift! B-But is it really?! I might just be lying. You might want to forget what I said.”

“That is true. A single word would never expose a Servant’s true name, after all. However, a class that controls an armada and is tied to a ship will thin out the candidates some. How will she attack? Bombardment, or a frontal assault? It’ll definitely be physical in nature.”

“Gah…!”

“Well, I guess the only thing left for me to do is prepare a great many physical barriers.” Rin said as Shinji’s face goes from bright red to a terrifying shade of blue right before Saber and Sweetie Belle’s eyes.

“Rule number 1 of war or fighting an opponent. Once you learn something about an enemy Servant, you can begin to make plans to defeat them. If both sides are strong, but only one side plans, the results of the battle would be obvious.”

“So that’s what Twilight means by knowledge is power.”

“Bingo my young master.” Saber said as she ruffled up Sweetie Belle’s mane before looking back at Shinji and Rin’s conversation.

“Oh, one more thing. I wonder if the Invincible Armada might be relevant to anything...I mean, others will start making references to that, right? Won’t that just piss off your Servant?”

Matrix Level: 2
Enemy Servant Infor Obtained!

“Looks like we just got ourselves some more info on his Servant.” Sweetie Belle whispered.

“W-Well...whatever. Knowledge means nothing if you can’t do anything with it. There’s a good chance that you and I will never have to face each other.” With that final pathetic attempt at a comeback, Shinji turns and starts walking away. Only for him to stop as he notice Sweetie Belle and Saber standing in his direction. “You…! You weren’t there the entire time, were you? WERE YOU?!”

“Depends, I pretty sure invincible armada pretty gave us a little bit of help in looking up your servant.” Saber said with a smirk on her face.

“H-Heh...Well, it’s not like you can stop the Invincible Arm-Err...I mean my Servant...Whatever...my victory is all but assured. Catch you later freak. Oh, and try not to disappoint me.” Shinji said as he walks pass the duo and down the hallway.

“*Sigh* It seems that there are a great many Masters who don’t understand the stakes involved.” Rin said as she made her way downstairs.

“I hate to agree with the harpy, but she’s right. Our opponent doesn’t grasp the power of information. Though difficult, it is vital that we scour the Arena and the campus for valuable information….Dear lord I sound like Twilight.”

“Kinda sorta, but unlike Twilight you’re lecturing is more interesting and useful.”

“That’s because we’re in this stupid place...but I’ll take that as a complement. So what do you want to do now?”

“Well we could always take a break from the Arena and just relax a bit.”

“Hm, as the old saying goes. All work and no play makes jack a dull boy. Plus we have been fighting for a bit. I guess we can relax for today. Where do you want to go?”

“The rooftop if you don’t mind? I kinda want to see the sunset.”

“You do know it’s not the real sun right?”

“It the thought that counts.”

“Fair enough, come along master. Let’s head up to the rooftop.”

[Rooftop]

“I have give the Moon cells credit for making the sun look like it’s setting actually. Though I wouldn’t mind having it back in Ponyville.” Saber said as she placed Sweetie Belle next to her while handing her lectus sandwich. “Reminds me of when I was back home during after school hours.”

“It looks nice, I still miss home and my sister.” Sweetie Belle replied as she took a bite out of her sandwich.

“As long as we work together, then we’ll be able to go home. Just remember that no matter who we have to face whether it be friend or foe, we have to keep going until the end.”

“Yeah, I guess you're right. I hope Rarity isn’t worrying to much back home.”

“If the grail is telling them about what’s going on, then I’m sure she’ll be worried...but knowing him he pretty much isn’t so...I guess when you think about is worry about where you are.”

“I just hope nopony get hurt in this stupid thing.” Sweetie Belle huffs.

“It’s a war Sweetie Belle. There will be those that we’ll have to kill if we ever want to leave here.” Saber leaned back as she was now laying on her back while looking the digital sky. “Which mean we’ll have to kill our opponents.”

“Maybe there a way to win without hurting them.” Sweetie Belle asked as she thought about it.

“If there was, then we’d have been out of here by now. As the rules imply, there can only be one winner of the Holy Grail War. If we fail to comply or win, then we die…”

“I know…” Replied Sweetie Belle as she looked at the sunset.

“Fate must be cruel for bringing you in...sorry that you’re involved in this. A child as innocent as you shouldn’t be in this place.”

“At least I got to meet you Saber.” Sweetie Belle said with a smile. “First time I made friends with a hero.”

“U-Um….Thanks.” Saber said as a blush appeared on her face. “I have to say you’re doing pretty well as a Master. Though I think you would do much better under different terms then this.”

“It okay, with your around I feel safe being here. Without you I don’t know what I would have done.”

“I’m sure you’ld be fine. You really need to stop doubting yourself so much.”

“Okay, I’ll try.”

Saber sighed as she pulled herself up from the floor and placed a hand on the young unicorns head. “You remind of how I was when I was your age. I was always unsure of myself, timid, and scared of certain things.”

“Really? Wow, what happened to make be so, well not timid, scared and unsure of yourself?”

“I had Caster and Gilgamesh to help with that. Mostly Gilgamesh and her one advice that help me get over my timid self.” Saber cleared her throat as she tried to imitate Gilgamesh’s voice. “Man the fuck up and get over it!” She said then fake punched herself.

Sweetie Belle giggled at this and smiled. “Sounds like Scootaloo, only she swears.”

“That and she not very good when it comes to giving out constructive advice. But she wasn’t wrong about that. Later on in one’s life, you have to push yourself to overcome your fears. Change is a good thing as long as you don’t lose yourself in the process.”

“Thanks Saber, that means a lot.” Sweetie Belle replied as she got up. “Okay I’m ready let's do this!”

“Nice to see you up and full of determination.” Saber said as she walked over to the door to the roof. “Let’s head back to our room for today. Tomorrow we’re going over to the chapel.”

“Okay.” Sweetie Belle said as she followed Saber back to their room.

“Innocent as she is…..I just hope this war doesn’t change her into something worse.” Saber thought as she took a glance at her sword. “I prefer not to be forced to do anything….drastic.” with that in mind, Saber and Sweetie Belle walked downstairs and retired to their room for the day. Unbenounced to the duo, a faded silhouette of a man wearing what appears to be something that you would wear in a science lab. Watching them from a safe distance.

“Hm….interesting.” He said while placing his hands in his lab coat pockets. “This should be an interesting turn of events.” The man said as he soon disappeared into ones and zeros.

Holy Grail War: Week One day Five: Powering Up

Chapter 16

Holy Grail War Arc

Week One day Five: Powering Up

Midday

Walking through the campus hallway, Sweetie Belle and Saber can see various NPCs, who appear as busy students, among the masters. Not only do the NPCs look slightly different, but but Sweetie Belle felt like their behavior seems a little...off. Maybe it’s their lack of a soul she thought. To them, this battle is just a string of data variables. Within a small group of gathered Masters, one person stands out like a sore thumb, mostly due to his bright orange uniform.

“Oh, it’s you.” The boy said as he walks up towards Sweetie Belle and Saber. “You’re the girl everyone has been talking about around campus.”

“Um, yes I am. Who are you?” Sweetie Belle asked as she felt the boy lift her hand towards her lips.

"Leonardo B. Harwey. It’s a pleasure to finally meet you my fair lady.” Leo said as he kissed her hand, causing Sweetie Belle’s face to blush red.

“Oh brother, talk about chivalry in nutshell.” Saber thought as she rolled her eyes at Leo’s performance.

“N-Not to be rude or anything, but who’s that colt standing behind you?”

“Colt…Oh, Gawain? Ah, how forgetful of me.” Leo said as he walked over to his Servant clad in armor. “Gawain. Introduce yourself.”

“I am his servant, Gawain. I am pleased to met you, and hope you will be a worthy foe.” Gawain said nodding in greeting as an enigmatic smile forms on his lips.

“As much as I would like to talk with you more, I must make my leave now. I hope to see you again. Please fight with honor and pride.” With a polite bow, Leo and his Servant turn and depart, leaving Sweetie Belle somewhat dumbfounded.

“Well that was….weird. I wonder why he had to leave so soon?”

“Might be because he knew I knew about his servant.” Saber said as she leaned against the hallway wall. “Sir Gawain, one of the Knights of the Round Table that was mentioned in the Legends of King Arthur. Or in this case King Arturia. It’s said that his prowess rivaled that of me and his holy sword was equal in power to Excalibur. It’s obvious that he’s a Saber-class Servant like myself.”

“You really know a lot about Servants like him. Have you been reading up on them while I was away?” Saber was about to reply, only for Rin to interrupt her by walking up next to them.

“Leo…?! I knew one of the Harways would be here, but the scion of the family himself.” Rin said appearing next to Sweetie Belle. “The power of the Holy Grail...I guess the plutocrats of Europe see a threat in the SE.RA.PH. But still, to risk him...Oh well, what was borrowed on Earth will repaid in Heaven… Things just got more interesting, although my powers as a magus are far superior to his!”

“I get the feeling that Leo person has little concern for folks like us.” Sweetie Belle said as she notice Rin not noticing her and Saber. Without so much as saying hi, the now fired-up Rin almost seems to stomp away.

“I’ll have to spend some time looking into Gawain’s background later on when we hit the library.” Saber said as she looked over at Sweetie Belle. “For now let’s just get something to eat before your class starts up again.

"I still don’t see why I need to do all this school stuff. I’m already going to school back in equestria.”

“Knowing more about this war and human culture wouldn’t hurt. Now come on, let’s head down to the commissary to eat.”

[Evening]

“Ah, a pleasant evening to you.” Rin said as she caught the attention of Sweetie Belle and Saber making their way down the stairs. “I trust you’re doing well, all things considered. You will never catch even a glimpse of victory if you insist on always running away.”

“Hey, we haven’t been running away from anypony.” Sweetie Belle said, glaring at the human.

“So you retreating from Shinji two days ago wasn’t you running away?” Rin said as Sweetie Belle looked away. “Running away won’t solve anything. However, facing a foe you know nothing about is lunacy. In this war, information is everything. To defeat your opponent, learn all you can about them. Their class, skills, even their history. The more info you have, the easier it will be to create a plan and predict your opponent’s actions.”

“Rin does make a valid point. We don’t want to go into battle without know what we are facing. That’s just begging for trouble in itself.” Saber said.

“For now, why don’t you go to the library? There’s a treasure trove of information there.”

“Well we where to go to find information, but why are you telling us this?” Sweetie Belle asked, only for Rin to brush her hair back with her hand.

“No reason, really. I just have a feeling that you’ll somehow come out on top. Matou is an idiot, but he has won before. It’ll make things easier if he gets defeated early on. Anyway, do your best.” With that Rin walked up the stairs heading to the rooftop.

“Are all humans like her sometime?”

“Yeah, but I guess she can be useful. Plus she seems to be helping you a lot, so we might as well take any advises she can give us.” Saber said as she made herself invisible. “Now let’s head over to the library and get some information.” Sweetie Belle nodded in agreement as she made her way down the hall and to the entrance of the campus library. As she open the door to the library, she notice as unpleasant familiar person standing in front of her.

“Hey, look who the cat dragged in. I never expected to run into you. Oh, who am I kidding?! Ha ha, I’m just messing with you.” Shinji said as he messed up Sweetie Belle’s mane. “The Library is the best place to find info. I know all about you, so I expect you to go all out against me.”

“Believe me, I won’t hold anything back.” The filly said as she batted Shinji’s hand away.

“But enough about me. It looks like you’re having a hell of a time finding the book you want. Unfortunately for you, I’ve thoughtfully taken every book about my Servant and hid them!”

“What! Why would you do something like that?”

“I thought you’d have more fun this way. I hid everything somewhere in the Arena. I wonder if a weaksauce Master like you will be able to find them. By the way, what does your Servant want in return for helping you? Money, right? I knew it!”

“Motherfucker, I’m going to enjoy kicking your ass at the end of the week.”Saber mumbled as she glared at the scrawny human.

“Do your best...while you still can. Hahahahahaha!” Shinji said as he walked past Sweetie Belle. “Whelp, see you around. Good luck. I hope you’ll put up a little more of a fight the next time we meet in the arena. You’re starting to bore me!”

“Arrogant asshole. Now we have to head to the arena to find the books he hidden.” Saber said, appearing next to Sweetie Belle. “And here I thought this would be easy. No choice but to head for the arena to get what we need.”

“*Sigh*I’m starting to wish this war was over soon.” Sweetie Belle said as she leaves the Library and heads downstairs to the first floor. As the duo were making their way to the arena, they notice another familiar voice from behind them.

“Greeting my child, I heard you already have a cipher key...excellent. You’ll get the other one at this rate.” Kotomine said with a melancholy smile on his face. “The second floor is where you’ll find the secondary trigger.”

“The second floor is available?”

“Not yet, but you should get a message saying that the second floor will be available. Once you hear that, you should be able to go to the new floor. But before I forget, have you set foot in the chapel yet? The system’s jurisdiction doesn’t penetrate that far, but...you can strengthen your Servant there.”

“Is that true Saber?” Sweetie Belle asked, looking up at her Servant.

“Father Kotomine never lies when it comes to stuff like this.” Saber said before looking up at Kotomine. “Thanks for the helpful info.”

“I’ve said my piece, Go and slaughter to your heart’s content.” Kotomine said as he went back to standing in the middle of the hallway.

“Is he always like that?

“From time to time he can be, but for now we have a new objective. First we go to the chapel, then to the arena.” Saber said as she lead Sweetie Belle down the fall. “The chapel is down the hall though the double doors.”

(Chapel)

Sweetie Belle pushed open the heavy door to the chapel as she and Saber went inside, where it was dark and eerily silent. There was no one in the pews. As they get used to the dim light, a flash of colors hurt their eyes. As their vision came back, two women appeared in front of them. One had red long hair wearing a black hoodie and white jeans, while the other had blue hair wearing a purple dress shirt and dress pants.

“Hey there, welcome to the chapel. My name is Aoka Aozaki, and the girl next to me is Touko Aozaki. You’re here to perform an Alteration of the Soul?” The red haired lady said looking at Sweetie Belle.

“Ah you must be the new Master that everyone’s been talking about.” said Touko, looking at Sweetie Belle out of curiosity. “I must say, it’s quite interesting to see something that you would see on a children’s cartoon show to be in this place. Well whatever, welcome to the Eden of the East. I assume you’re here for an Alteration of the Soul?

“What’s a Alteration of the Soul?”

“You don’t know what the Alteration of the Soul is, but you came here anyway? Amateur.” Aoka said with an annoyed look on her face.

“Alternation of the Soul? What is it, you ask? Hmm...Simply put, you link your soul to your Servant’s. When a Master’s rank increases, we can strengthen the link. That’s done by hacking into each soul and choosing what to improve.”

“So you can alter a pony’s soul that easily?

“Well, it’s like my sister said. My job is to perform Alterations made possible by various events. You get the gist of it, right? If you want to do an Alteration of the Soul, let me know. As for that creature over there, she’s totally useless, like 8-track tapes or the C:/ prompt.”

“And you’re lower than dirt. Don’t screw up or the Moon Cell will come down on you...again.” Touko said with a smirk on her face.

“Gah! How many time do I have to tell you that the Master was at fault...that time! They specifically told me to do quasi-legal Alterations, so I added a few...extra skills.”

“Laugh now, but it wouldn’t be funny to the one who lost because of your towering incompetence. Listen well, girl. If you value your life, do not put any trust in that -thing’s- abilities. If I were you, I’d stick to regaining the spiritual statuses your Servant may have lost.”

“Whatever you prick. Anyway, what do you say we try Alternation right now?” The red hair asked, only for Sweetie Belle nodding yes. “Alrighty then. Let’s alter your souls.” She said, pulling up a screen in front of Sweetie Belle. “Just select the ones that you want to increase, and I’ll do my magic.”

“Hm….” Sweetie Belle thought for a moment before pressing on the screen. “I guess I can increase her strength and defense ability. And it couldn’t hurt to have a little bit of luck on your side…Okay I am finish.” She said handed the screen to Aoka.

[10/10] Veil of light

“Okay, just have your servant step into the cube on the table, and we can get started.” Sweetie Belle motion Saber to stand on top of the table where the cube was. From what she could tell, it felt like she was floating in mid air once the cube surrounded her. With just a press of a few buttons, the cube began to glow as the room was filled with a blinding light causing Sweetie belle to cover her eyes. Seconds later the light faded away as it revealed Saber float back down onto the table. “There we go, done.”

“How are you feeling Saber?” Sweetie Belle asked.

“A lot stronger than how I was during the beginning of the week.” Saber said as she clutched her hand. “I even got some of my powers back.”

“The power of being able to Alter a soul between a Master and Servant. That’s Alternation of the Soul for yeah in a nutshell.” Aoka said, smiling at the unicorn and Servant. “If you need your souls Alternated, just stop by the chapel and I’ll work my magic.”

“We will, thanks for the help Ms. Aoka.”

"Please, call me Aoka kid.” She said as she watch Sweetie Belle and her Servant walked out of the Chapel. As the duo left the chapel, they walked upon a scene that involved Shinji causing what they could guess trouble with a old man.

"A chapel is for quiet reflection. I do not know who your god is, but you should know that much.” The old man said as Shinji rolled his eyes.

“Sorry, my bad! I’m an atheist...swear to god!”

“...Hmph. I have always believed that the japanese were polite. I guess I was misled. Leave this place at once. The gates of heaven will remain closed to the unbeliever. It appears that in your haste to learn how to fight, you forgot to learn dignity and respect.” With that, the old man walked pass Sweetie Belle and Saber and returned back inside the chapel.

“I really hate old geezers like you, always talking down on me! When it comes time to fight, you can bet your ass I’ll be teaching you a thing or two!” Shinji said as he walked off back into the school.

“You think that guy wouldn’t cause trouble as much. But then again with an attitude/personality like that, I’m not surprise no one hasn’t punched him in the face yet.” Saber said as she felt Sweetie Belle pull on her dress.

“Who’s god?” She asked, which caused Saber to be surprised by the young filly’s question.

“Do you want the long version or the short version of that question?”

“Something tells me that I should go with the short question, so I’ll go with the short answer to my question.”

“Think of god as like Celestia only different.”

“How different?”

“Well he did created us humans, which pretty much makes him our heavenly father in heaven. Not only that but he did created the universe that Caster, Gilgamesh, and I used to live in….sorry it’s kinda hard to make it short when I have to leave out a few details in answering your question. Tell you what after we’re done with the holy grail war, then I’ll explain the whole biblical understand of what the old man was talking about. Deal?”

“Deal.” Sweetie Belle said as she heard her terminal beeping. Reaching into her pocket, she pulled it out as the saw something written on it.

: : The second cipher key has been generated on the second floor. : :

“Looks like the second key is made.” The unicorn said as she place the terminal back into her pocket. “How many days do have before the fight with Shinji?”

“Two days left. Which means we’ll have to get the cipher key either today or tomorrow. I would suggest we get it today so we can get it out of the way.”

“Alright, then let’s head off to the arena. We can get the the key and the books that Shinji hid in the arena.”

[Arena: Second Floor]

[Greed and Lust combine to burst into Brilliance. And lead onward to the sepulcher of the sea.]

“Dear Celestia! Look at this place!” Sweetie Belle said as she eyed the new arena floor. “It’s like we’re underwater.”

“That the holy grail war for yeah. They always keep things interesting.” Saber said as she drew out her sword. “I sense an unpleasant aura. They must be lurking somewhere nearby. It’d be a catastrophe if they attack us from behind while we return to the campus. We should head-on now.”

“We still need to locate the books that Shinji hid before he suspect what we’re up to.”

“Smart plan.” The servant said as she took the lead. “Just stay behind me Master, and I’ll take care of dealing with the enemies.” She said as she and Sweetie Belle began their search through the second floor of the arena. During their search for the key and books, they came across a wall that was blocking their path to the rest of the arena. “Dammit, something tells me that Shinji placed this here just the screw around with us.”

“There must be a switch or something near by? Let’s look around and see if we can find one.” Sweetie Belle said as she notice a strange looking crystal standing on a pedestal a few feet away from them. “Hey, there something over there. It might me the switch to get us through.” She said as she quickly ran over to the switch, only to top as she see an enemy program in shape of a blocky snake appeared near it.

“Um, Saber!” The young filly yelled as she backed away from the Viper.

“I got it.” Saber said as she batted the Viper back with the butt of her sword. As Saber took up a fighting stance, the Viper soon recovered as it start to charge toward them. Saber blocked the oncoming attack by parrying it’s charge attack, and counters with a straight jab to it’s body follow with an upwards vertical slash to it’s face. The Viper quickly backed up away from the Servant as it start to move around in a circle at top speed heading toward her. Saber quickly ducked out of the way as she slid behind it hoping to attack from behind. Only for the Viper to return and hit her in the back, causing her to be pushed forwards and hit the wall face first.

“You okay Saber?”

“Yeah, just didn’t expect for it to hit me from behind like that.” She said, pulling herself up from the wall as she looked back at the enemy program. The Viper began its spinning attack again as it headed towards Saber. Saber ready her sword as she waited for the right moment to counter it’s attack as her sword began to glow. As the program came close enough to Saber, the Servant quickly spun around to perform an upwards slash causing the Viper to stagger back. In its stun state, Saber quickly jumped into the air and brought her sword down cutting the Viper in two as it disappeared into ones and zeros.

“Nice work Saber.” Sweetie Belle said as she moved over to the switch and touched it. Upon touching the switch, the path that was blocked was unblocked.

“Next time don’t rush off like that. I prefer not to have you die on me before we can get out of this place.

“Right, sorry about that.”

“Just stay behind me and don’t wander off like that. Come on, let’s go find the book that idiot hid inside here.” Saber said as she took the lead and head down further into the arena. As they continue their way deep into the arena, they took notice of their surroundings. Mostly because from what they could tell, it looked like they were underwater.

“This feels weird.” Sweetie Belle said as looked at the fish swimming through the arena floors and walls. “It’s like we’re underwater, but we’re not.”

“Well this was made by the Holy Grail, or in other words The Moon Cell.”

“Moon Cell also called the Holy Grail, Eye of God, and Divine Automatic Recording Device is a massive collection of photonic crystals within the moon that comprises a giant supercomputer of sorts. This great mineral vein is located within an extremely large hole comparable to a several-kilometer-wide crack boring through the moon itself. The diameter of the crystals themselves reaches up to thirty kilometers. It seems that, apart from its surface portions, the moon itself is made up of these photonic crystals. The Moon Cell was discovered by the Western European Conglomerate, who decided to call it the "Holy Grail" because of its reality-changing power. The time of its initial operation is unknown, but an estimate based on radioactive carbon dating of approximates the moon to have been formed 4.55 billion years ago, while the photonic crystals were created 4.6 billion years ago. Indeed, it is the oldest entity in the Solar System, and it has been observing the Earth since its birth. Photonic crystals are crystals that, on a microscopic level, regularly alternates between layers of high and low. In this way-.”

“Saber!” Sweetie Belle yelled as her Servant paused during her lecture of the Moon Cell. “Can you please just give it in a more understandable term so I can understand?”

“Um...long story short we’re pretty much in a world made by the Moon Cells seeing how they can change reality.”

“Thank you. For now on when it comes to stuff like this, you’ll sum it up in a few words or less.”

“I can only try.”

“I’ll take it as a yes?”

“.....More or less.” Saber said as she continued walking down the arena floor, only to stop as she sees a hidden passageway. “Master, there is a suspicious hidden passageway here. What do you say we see where it leads, shall we?”

“Lead the way Saber.” Sweetie Belle said as she followed her Servant down the hidden passageway. As they walked down the hidden passage, they come across a platform with an orange digital cube floating in the middle of it.

“This seems like a place that Shinji would hide something valuable in here.”

“Like what?”

“Anything really. It could be where he hid the books about his Servant. I highly recommend you open that box immediately.” Saber suggested as the young filly placed a hand on the box. Upon doing so, a somewhat faded journal appeared in front of.

“Hey, this is the book that Shinji was so desperate to keep hidden from us.”

“It’s a diary.”

“How do you know?”

“Because it says diary written on the sheaves of parchment.” Saber said pointing at the word diary on it.

“Oh….” Sweetie Belle’s face blushed red as she began to read the faded journal. “Look at this thing. This journal pretty much has everything written about his Servant. The name of her ship, The Golden Hind, names of several islands, and hijacking ships...Pipsqueak might like her seeing how he’s been acting like a pirate ever since Nightmare Night.”

“Without a doubt, this must be connected to that Servant in some way. It’s a pity her true name isn’t legible, but this book should prove a useful clue as to her identity.

“Damn! I didn’t expect you to find it so easily, freak.” Shinji said, catching Sweetie Belle and Saber off guard for a moment. “And I went through all of the trouble of bringing it down here...Oh well, I’ll just have to take it back now.”

“Well look who finally comes out of his hole. Been awhile since we’ve seen you Shinji.” Saber said as she readies her sword.[

“Heh! You must be getting really desperate if you’re searching for it in a place like this! Anyway, too bad for you. You came all this way just for me to take that book away from you.”

“You think we’re going to just hand over the book to you. Not a chance.” Sweetie Belle said as she held the journal close to herself.

“Well then I guess we’ll have to do this the hard way then. Servant, you know what to do.” Shinji said as he order Rider to fire at Sweetie Belle. Only for Saber to move in front of the filly and deflected the bullets away or back at Rider.

“Oh, someone has improved since the last time we fought. What happen to your little friend that appeared last time to save you?” Rider asked as she blocked Saber’s sword with her gun as she charged at her.

“Like I would tell you anything.” Saber lifted up her foot as she pushed Rider away from her, and dashed towards her ready to strike at her chest. Rider quickly moved out of the way as a cannon shape door opened up from where she moved, and fired a cannon ball at the knight. The blast made contact with her as she was slightly sent flying backwards a bit before using her sword the stop her from falling back.

“Still angry about before huh? Nothing against you or anything, but I was just following orders. You know how the whole Master and Servant thing goes seeing how you have that kid as a Master.”

“I have nothing against you either, but your Master is a dick on so many levels.”

“You have no idea.”

“Hey! I’m right here you know!?” Shinji yelled with an annoyed look on his face. “Hurry up and take care of her so we can leave!”

“Yeah, yeah, I’m working on is Master.” Rider said, rolling her eyes as she aim at Saber and begun to fire at her again. Saber quickly rolled out of the way as she ran towards while deflecting the bullets that were fired at her. As soon as she was close to the pirate, Saber sword began to glow bright as a veil of light surrounded the sword as she brought it up and slashed upwards on Rider’s chest. This caused Rider to stagger back and counter with a shot to Saber’s right shoulder.

“What are you doing!? I paid you to fight them and get that book back! Not screw around with them and finish the damn job!” Shinji yelled as Rider rolled her eyes and continues to fire at Saber. Only for the knight to either dodge or deflect Rider’s bullets. Closing the distance between her and Rider, Saber's sword light up again as she took as counter stance. Before Saber could counter with an attack, the same loud air horn sound echoed into the arena causing them both to stop their attacks. But not before Saber landed a surprise sucker punch to Rider’s face. “N-No way...how can you two be this strong in less than two days?”

“While you were off goofing around, we been training in the arena and looking up information on your Servant.” Sweetie Belle said giving off a triumphant pose. “We won’t lose to somepony like you who looks down on others.”

“D-Don’t start getting cocky now freak! You’re lucky the SE.RA.PH is watching. I’ll be victorious in the end!” Shinji said as he and his Servant exit the arena via teleport crystal.

“Eat me don’t forget to write loser.” Saber said as she waved good-bye to Shinji. “Thanks to that battle I’ve reached a number of conclusions.”

“Really? What are they?”

“First of all, that item relating to our enemy’s Servant is definitely a ship’s log. Secondly, based on the ship’s battery she had just revealed.”

“You mean that cannon that appeared out of that door thing?”

“Yep that’s it. If her prowess with vehicles is to is so advanced, then it means that without a doubt she is a Rider.”

Enemy Servant Information Obtained!

“Now that we’ve obtained the book that idiot man-child tried to hide, we can leave this place without any problem. Should we go after the trigger key now or go after it tomorrow?”

“Let’s get the key now so we won’t have to worry about it tomorrow. Something tells me that Shinji might have something planned for us tomorrow if we go into the arena to get the key.”

“Fair enough.” Saber said as she took the lead again. “Let’s go.”

Week One day Six: Hunt for the Golden Hind

[Evening]

“Welp, tomorrow is the big day for us to fight Shinji.” Saber said as she leaned against the wall of the hallway. “You have everything that we need to fight him right?”

“We got the information on them, which wasn’t really that hard to some degree. I bought a few stuff from the store down in the cafe that we could use in the fight. Yep I pretty much have everything that we need for tomorrow.” Sweetie Belle said as she placed her portable terminal into her pocket.

“Good, now the only thing that we need to do is put in one more training session before we can call it a day.” Saber said as she and Sweetie Belle headed to the arena entrance. The moment they tried to enter the arena, it felt like they ran into a wall as they were flung backwards.

“Ow! What the hay was that?”

“It would appear someone is afraid of a fair fight. It can only be one person that we know that’s been doing this to us throughout the entire week.” Saber said as she and Sweetie Belle heard footsteps coming from behind them. Turning around they say Shinji appearing from around the corner.

“Hey there! Looks like you’ve been hitting the arena pretty hard. Toughen up yet?”

“What do you want Shinji?” Sweetie Belle said as she glared at the human.

“I was bored, so I decided to set up a few little surprises here and there. My bad. I’m actually doing bottom feeding masters like you a favor. The arena is a dangerous place especially for a kid like you. But if you must enter the arena, you’ll need to track down the two magic sigils I set. However, once you make it into the arena, I’ll crush you like a cockroach. Show up if you dare. See you later. Oh, and where are the magic sigils, you ask? Find them yourself, loser!” Shinji said as he laugh while walking away from the enraged filly.

“I’d give anything to be able to eviscerate that son of a bitch! Sadly, the rules won’t allow it. It looks like the door is sealed, but it’s actually an anomaly in the area’s programming code. The sigils are like tributaries feeding a river.”

“Meaning?”

“Unless we block the flow, the seal will remain. Annoying as it would seem, we need to find the two locations where Shinji placed those sigils.”

“Where do you think they’re hidden in or at?”

“Give me a second.” Saber said as she closed her eyes for a moment. “There’s one on the front door of the nurse’s office, and another in the classroom upstairs. I would recommend we split up to go get them.”

“Wouldn’t it be a bad idea to split up?”

“He can’t attack us outside of the arena. It’s against the rules, and he would be in trouble for doing that. But if it’ll make you feel better, we can go together and take care of them before Shinji does something else stupid.”

(Elsewhere…)

“You think that pony will be the one?” Ruler asked as she and the grail watch Sweetie Belle and Saber from the sidelines.

“Possibly, if she and her servant survives this war.”

“I’m a bit surprise that you would bring them into this. You usually would bring someone much older with some kind of experience in a war or fight.”

“I figure it would be a change for once in this place. Why not add someone from the pony world to have them join in such a great war.”

“Yeah great war is a bit of an understatement.”

“You just keep doing your job, and keep an eye out for anyone that’s trying to break the rules around here.”

“Not like I have anything better to do today.” Ruler said as she vanish from existence, leaving the Holy Grail to watch.

“Hm…If they make it through the seven week war, then maybe they’ll be the chosen ones.”

“Okay, that takes care of the problem with the barrier around the entrance of the arena.” Saber said as she crushed the last talismen at the nurse’s office. “Now we can go back into the arena to prepare ourselves for tomorrow.”

“You think we can win against him tomorrow?” Sweetie Belle asked as she followed after Saber.

“With all the training we've been doing, we’re a sure in to win. You have nothing to worry about kid. Just leave the fighting to me, okay?” The Servant said as the unicorn filly just nodded. As the two of them were making their way back to the arena, they heard a familiar voice coming from around the corner.

“What? You want more money?! You greedy money-grubber!”

“Complement accepted. I’m a pirate mercenary. The brighter my pile of gold the more gusto behind my gun.”

“All right, already! Jeez, just hold your horses!” Shinji said as he tapped his foot for a moment. “....I hacked into the Arena and got it to generate more treasure, so…” Just as Shinji was lost in thought, Rider notice two familiar face standing right behind her and Shinji.

“Ooh. Why hello, little girl. Fancy meeting you here.”

“You! Y-You’re eavesdropping on me?!” Shinji said as he turns around to see Sweetie Belle and Saber standing behind him and Rider. “...W-Well, whatever. Now you know. Some treasure was generated on the second floor of the Arena. My Servant gets stronger the more she gets paid! Well, if you want any, you better get there before me.”

“Hmm. Bold words, Shinji. But can someone like you really snatch all the treasure first? No, you can’t! You’re nothing more than a hapless, twisted knave!”

“You just called me a knave?! You don’t get to talk to me like that, you ungrateful Servant!” Shinji said as he turns his attention back at Sweetie Belle and Saber. “Okay, losers. Meet you there. Even if you get there first, all of the treasure will be mine! Ahahahahahaha!” With that laugh, the human and his servant entered into the Arena.

“So that Servants strength magnifies when collecting more treasure. Pure lust is at times a beautiful thing, but it leaves a bad taste in my mouth to see her purse it. I, myself, admire the trappings of wealth from time to time. Shall we adorn said finery as we weaken our enemy?”

“Yeah, plus we kinda need some money due to the fact that we’re broke.” Sweetie Belle said as she pulled out her wallet to show that it’s empty.

“Right, all the more reason to hunt for some treasure.”

[Arena]

“Okay, Shinji could’ve hidden the treasure so that only he can see them. So we need to keep an eye out for the treasure-”

“Actually, it’s displaced here on the map.” Sweetie Belle said as she pulled up a digital map of the arena.

“Where did you get that from?”

“He hacked into the arena right, so that also means that he would forgot to make it so that he would know where the treasure is, but no body else.”

“....For a so called genius, he’s not so smart.” Saber said as she took the lead. “Come on, let’s go hunt us some treasure.” Sweetie Belle nodded as she followed after Saber into the arena. As they made it to the first room of the arena, they happen to come across Shinji and his servant Rider.

“So you came after all.” Shinji said as he had a smug look on his face. “Don’t worry; I’ll keep the extent of your greed a secret, Sweetie Belle. Since we’re both here, why don’t we have a little competition to see who can find the most treasure? Haha, I’ll be sure to go easy on you, so no need to take this thing too seriously!” The boy said as he and his servant ran off deep into the arena.

“Normally I have no desire for treasure, but seeing how we’re dealing with Shinji I’ll make an acception for this.” Sweetie Belle said as she motion Saber to follow after them. “Come on, let’s go hunt us some treasure! Maybe I’ll be able to get my cutie mark if we win.”

“Possibly, won’t know until we find out.” Saber said as she lifts Sweetie Belle onto her shoulders and dashed off into the arena after Shinji and Rider. “Hold on tight, this is going to be a bumpy ride.” She said as she started to either dart pass some of the enemy programs or slashes at them as she runs by any that block her path. Reaching ¼ of the way through the arena, they saw Shinji and Rider reach the digital box which had the treasure inside it.

“Alright, this is the first one.” he said as they soon ran off. “Money does make the world go round doesn’t it?”

“Ah, the fresh smell of money. I can feel myself getting stronger by the second.”

“Dammit, we were too slow to get the treasure in time.” Saber said as she stopped in front of the empty digital box.

“We still have four other boxes left that Shinji haven’t touched yet. If we can get those, then we can finish this hunt, and stop his servant from getting any more powerful before the fight.” Sweetie Belle said as she motions her Servant to follow after Shinji. Saber nodded as she runs off after him. “There’s a box with treasure inside a few feet away from us. We can go there and get it before Shinji does.”

“That or we might end up facing them and have to fight them.” Saber said as she notice a pillar of light appearing from off to the side. “And something tells me we might be fighting them sooner than expected.” Following where the light was coming from, Saber bolted down the arena as she make a hard right turn down the hallway as they come across Shinji and Rider opening another digital box.

“Okay, here’s number two. This is way too easy.” Shinji said as a smirk appeared on his face.

“Yeah, but that’s not going to be nearly enough.” Rider replied.

“Damn, aren’t we the greedy one?” He commented as they turned around and were about to walk off to the next digital box with treasure inside. That is until Saber and Sweetie Belle appeared in front of them, causing him to be taken by surprise. “Crap-.” Shinji said as he quickly tries to play it off like it was nothing. “So freak, you somehow managed to make it this far. Well, I have to give you kudos for keeping up with me. It’s impressive, especially for one of the proletariat. But this is where your pathetic struggle will end. You’ve bumped into me, after all.”

“Don’t think that you’ll beat us like last time.” Sweetie Belle proclaimed. “Unlike last time, we been working and training to face you when the final fight begins tomorrow.”

“Sorry, but it’s game over, freak! Alright, get going El- Rider. You got your treasure, so get to work!”

“Jeez, what a pain in the ass. And by the way, this miserable little pittance hardly qualifies as treasure. Oh well, as this is my job...No hard feelings little pony girl!” Rider yelled as she raised her twin pistols at Sweetie Belle and fired at her, only for it to be blocked by Saber’s sword and deflected off to the side hitting the arena wall.

“Have you forgotten about me?” Saber asked as she charges at Rider with her sword ready to strike. Rider in turn quickly slid to the right as she takes aim at Saber and fires at her. Saber quickly uses her gauntlet to block the bullets as they bounce off as she punches Rider in the face sending her skidding back a bit before stopping.

“Wasn’t expecting that coming from a Saber class like yourself.” Rider said as she wipes the blood from her lip with her sleeve. “This is going to be fun~.” Saber once again charges at Rider once more as she drags her sword along with her as she tries to slash upwards towards the pirate. Rider see this as she uses her pistols to block her attack as she counters with a swift kick to Saber’s side. Saber skid to the left from Rider’s kick for a moment before grabbing Rider’s foot and slamming the pirate onto the ground. Slamming her on the ground again she lifts Rider up before releasing her grip, and kicking her in the stomach sending her flying back into the wall of the arena.

“What are you doing Rider!” Shinji yelled as he started stomping his feet in frustration. “I don’t pay you to get your ass handed to you by a mutant unicorn freak and her servant! Get up and take this fight seriously!” Groaning in annoyance Rider pulls herself up from the floor as she was about to take aim at Saber. Only for the SE.RE.PH system to interrupt their fight. “Dammit, of all the times for it to call off the fight.”

“Saved by the bell huh?” Saber asked as grin appeared on her face. “You were saying about kicking our asses Shinji?”

“You just got luck this time freaks. Tomorrow is the final day of the preparation week, so you better be ready for when I beat you in the match. Rider! We’re leaving!” Shinji said as he and Rider disappeared in a flash of ones and zeros.

“Looks like we’re ready to face them in the fight tomorrow.” Saber said as she looked over at Sweetie Belle who had a worry expression on her face. “Still worry that we might lose huh?”

“A little bit yes...but I’m more worry about what will happen if we win. We’ll be fight against someone just as bad as Shinji, or somepony that is kind and nice like you?” The Filly asked as she felt herself beginning to tear up. “Or worse, what if we-.” Before Sweetie Belle could finish, she felt Saber place a hand on her head as she rubs it to try to comfort her.

“It's wrong for a child like you to be put in a situation like this. And I know this is going to scar you afterwards if we make it out of this. But remember, I will always be by your side no matter what you choose to do from here on out.” Saber stops rubbing her hair as she stands in front of her and lifts her sword up. “I am your Servant, and you are my Master.” Upon hearing that, Sweetie Belle whipped away the tears around her eyes as she looks up at Saber and nodded with a smile.

“Yeah, thanks Saber.”

“Don’t mention. Now come on, let’s get out of here.”

“So we can prepare for the fight tomorrow?”

“Well that and the fact that I prefer to leave this place and collect the rest of the treasure before we leave this place. Because once we leave, we won’t be able to come back here again.”

“Right….let’s go collect the rest of that treasure….hehe.” Sweetie Belle said as she begins to lead the way trying not to look suspicious.

“Wait we do have enough money to buy stuff right?” Saber asked as Sweetie Belle just continued to walk off. “Right!?”

Holy Grail War: Week one day seven: Knight vs Pirate

Chapter 18

Holy Grail War Arc

Week one day seven: Knight vs Pirate

[Morning]

“Today is the Elimination Battle. I hope you’re fully prepared.” Kotomine said as he appeared behind Sweetie Belle and Saber as they turned around to see him.

“We are.” Saber answered while Sweetie Belle nodded in turn.

“Come to me when you’re ready. You can do something trifling like stop by the commissary if needed.” He said as he turned around and exited the room.

“First Elimination of the week. How are you feeling Sweetie Belle?”

“Like I’m about to throw up...Do we have to do this?”

“If I knew of another way around this, then we would’ve been gone by now. We have no choice but to fight.” Saber said as she placed a hand on the young girl as she kneels down. “Like I said before, leave the fighting to me. Just help me out with support and stuff.”

“O….Okay.” Sweetie Belle said with a small smile on her face.

“Alright, before we can go fight Shinji, we need to look over the information that we gathered during the week.”

“Right, going into a battle without knowing what our enemy is would be dangerous and reckless. So what do we know so far about our opponents?”

“Shinji Matou…..well for one thing he’s an arrogant asshole nuff said. Though the weapon that his treasured Servant wields is a pair of dual-wielding old-fashioned pistols. She and the socially retarded Shinji made a good pair of troublemakers.”

“Almost like she’s a wild big sister for him.” Sweetie Belle said as Saber chuckled. “Let’s not forget about the note that Shinji hid from us about his Servant. From what I’ve read her Noble Phantasm was some kind of ship.”

“The paper that we got was old and the handwriting scratchy, but it was a ship called the Golden Hind. Which makes sense after having a second fight with her.”

“So that means she's a Rider class Servant?”

“Seems like it seeing how Archer class Servants don’t use ships as their Noble Phantasm. I mean duel pistols yeah, but not ships.” Saber said as she placed a hand to her chin for a moment before her eyes widen and snaps her fingers. “Francis Drake.”

“Francis Drake?”

“A renowned pirate from my world before I was displaced to Equestria. She circumnavigated the world around the Cape of Good Hope. Though in history she’s not a girl, but a man who gained instant fame after destroying the Invincible Spanish Armada. I would go into full detail about his...or in this case her history,” Quickly looks over at Sweetie Belle as she notice a bored/confused expression on her face. “But something tells me I should lay off until later. At any rate, it’s a lucky thing we figured out her true name before the Elimination Battle.”

“You have a way to beat them?”

“Yeah, but I’ll need your help support wise. Shinji may be a fool at times, but there’s no arguing that he’s a hacker of incomparable talent. Hope these tidbits of information can bridge the difference in our skill levels. Come on, let’s go to the commissary to get the stuff we need before this evening.”

[School building 1F]

“You will now enter the Coliseum and confront the opposing Master. Are you ready?” Kotomine asked. “Remember, the only way to leave the Coliseum is to win. If you are ready, I will open the gate.” Both Sweetie Belle and Saber looked at each for a moment before nodding their heads. “The way to the Coliseum is now opened young Master. I wish you the best of luck and hope that you will return. Remember: It’s kill or be killed.” Stepping aside from the doorway leading to the Coliseum, Kotomine stood by and watched as Sweetie Belle pulled out the two Cipher key cards needed to enter. The cards quickly flew from out of her hands as they placed themselves onto the door. Once on the door, the chains that surrounded it vanish as they slide open for Saber and Sweetie Belle to enter. Once inside they soon found themselves on an elevator, across from Sweetie Belle and Saber were Shinji and his Servant Rider.

“Look who didn’t chicken out and run away. Oooh right, I forgot following directions is all you’re good at freak.” Shinji said as the elevator they’re in began to go down. “Get a clue, huh? Well, you can’t say I didn’t show you how awesome I was in the prep period. Never in a million years are you going to defeat me. Shoulda ran away when you had the chance!”

“I won’t know unless I try.” Sweetie Belle said as she glared at the human. “I’m going to win this war and return home no matter what.”

“...Excuse me? That’s some bull! Did you forget how I was able to mop the floor with you when we first met? How many times do you plebes have to be reminded that you’ll never be on the level of a genius like me.” The human said before placing a hand on his chin for a second. “But, I guess I better get used to it, since nobody here can defeat me. My Servant El Draque and I are completely invincible. Man you have some seriously shitty luck to have gotten paired with ME in the first round. Don’t worry. Since you’re a creature from another world or something, I’ll make sure you go out with a big bang.”

“I’m starting to get very annoyed at this arrogant asshole.” Saber thought, as glared at Shinji.

“Oh, hey! Check out my great idea! You’ve gotta hear this. Ready?” Shinji asked as Sweetie Belle and Saber looked at each other for a moment before nodding. “Always a goody-two shoes, gotta love it. Well, I hope you’ll take one more direction...why don’t you lose on purpose this time? Anything else is a waste of time! Obviously, even a landslide victory against you will cost me energy. Even decided battles like this one still are unfair because the victor has to waste their strength. That sounds lame, so do me a favor and just throw that match. Then I win, and don’t get hurt, see? Whatcha think? Makes total sense, huh? And you can even feel all warm and fuzzy for helping me out! And there’s something in it for you, right? Cuz if we fought for real, no way my Servant could hold back.Hell, I’ll even throw in some of the prize money I’ll win. All I want is the title, anyway. C’mon, is this a great idea or a great idea? Friends helping each other out and all that jazz.”

“.....This guy can’t be serious?” Saber thought as she looked down at Sweetie Belle. “What’s your answer to his request Sweetie Belle?”

“I….reject your request in letting you win this fight.” Sweetie Belle answered as Saber smiled.

“You really want to fight me, huh?” Shinji asked as he sighs. “You’re a freaking idiot. I feel sorry for you. All this new power at your disposal is giving you an inflated ego.” He said as he looks over at Saber. “Hey, Servant. Why don’t you try talking some sense into the head of your stupid freak of a Master?”

“....Of all the rare idiots I have met, this is by far the most stupefying. A talking rat. All it mouths is gibberish, but still, a rare and impressive creature. A talking bear would at least be more fetching. This rat revels in slime and filth.” Saber answered as a dumbfounded expression appeared on Shinji’s face.

“Whaaa?! How dare you speak about me like that! You’re just a Servant!”

“Hahaha, they have a point, Master.” Rider added as Shinji turned his attention at his Servant.

“H-Hey! Whose side are you on?!”

“Your side, of course. You paid me, so I’ll fight ably by your side. Letting them throw the match would not satisfy either of us. I dislike giving less than my full effort. Let your winning instincts take over. Everything’s better if you fight for it. Food, women, victory. Besides, we’re villains. That means if nothing else we’re allowed to be splashy. If you’re going to be a villain, might as well be as flamboyant as you please. Don’t hold back.”

“I’m not a villain! D-Don’t call me that, you...evil woman!”

“Hahaha! Temper, temper, little one! You’ve got big balls for being such a tiny man. I admire that.” Rider said as she pats Shinji on the head, only for him to smack her hand away.

“Hey, stop! I said stop! Don’t pat my head, you baboon! And you reek of alcohol!”

“...Is it weird that I see them as being perfect for each other?” Sweetie Belle asked as she looked at Saber.

“Well Masters and Servants are sometimes paired by compatibility. I’m more worried that their chemistry will be constructive in battle.” Saber answered as she soon felt the elevator rumbles to a halt. “Guess we’re at our stop?”

“Hmph, I was going to spare your life if you surrendered. But since EVERYBODY insists, I’ll show you the vast difference in our abilities until you cry for mercy. Once El Draque makes Swiss cheese out of you, it’ll be too late!”

(Coliseum)

Upon reaching the end of the elevator ride down to the coliseum, both Masters along with their servants made their way out of the elevator. Once out of the elevator, Sweetie belle and Saber took a quick glance at the battle field that they were going to fight Shinji and Rider on.

“This is the Coliseum? I was kinda expecting some spectators to be watching this fight. Unless they’re watching from a TV or something?” Saber said as she turned her attention to Shinji and Rider.

“All bark and no bite. Right? That’s what they say, isn’t it? Well that’s you!” Shinji said as he makes his way to the middle of the coliseum. “I’m gonna humiliate you so bad that after this game you’ll never crawl out of your mom’s basement!”

“Oh, so your goal isn’t just victory, but humiliation? What a greedy little boy you are, Shinji.” Rider said as she drew out her twin pistols. “Very well, I’ll bring the rope for you to truss them up. Tie them to the mast or whatever your little heart desires.”

“Don’t even think about going easy on them, El Draque. They should have backed down when they could.”

“Hmph, mercy isn’t in my vocabulary. I have a thirst for the finer things in life, and it is all I care for. I may not always have good fortunes, but with humans or bombs, there’s a certain fatal inevitability to life. Now, are you ready to go for broke? It’s time to splurge!” Rider yelled as she charges at Saber with the attempt to take her by surprise by hitting her with her pistols.

Saber drew her sword as she uses it to block the surprise attack and tries to counter with a straight jab with her sword. Rider quickly tilt her head to the side to avoid the jab of her sword, and tries to fire at Saber’s ribcage. The bullets bounced off Saber’s armor as Saber counters with a punch to the face, causing Rider to skid backwards. Once she comes to a halt, Rider looks up with a devilish grin on her face.

“Oh, this is going to be so much fun~!”

“Nice job Saber!” Sweetie Belle said, hopping in the air after seeing her land the first punch.

“Quit messing around El Draque! Finish that Saber off and kill her freak of a master!” Shinji yelled as Saber noticed three digital keyboards and a screen appear around him. “Must I do everything myself?” After pressing a few buttons, Shinji slammed his fist onto the keyboard as Saber felt herself being weaken.

“Dammit, forgot about being able to cast spells during the battle.” Saber said as she felt Rider hit her in the face with her boots, causing Saber to groan in pain. Just as she was about to jab Rider with her sword, she soon felt a sharp pain in her left leg as Rider shot her with a bullet from her pistol.

“Haha! How’d you like that freak!?” Shinji asked as he gloated at his servant’s handy work. “You should’ve taken my offer and lost the match on purpose!”

“You okay Saber!” Sweetie Belle asked as Saber quickly pulled herself away from Rider and back over to the young filly.

“I’m fine. Though I would like some assistance if you would be so kind and do so.” Saber said as she winces from the pain in her leg.

“H-How do I do that? I don’t know any magic spells that can heal you.”

“No….but you still got the stuff from commissary right?” The knight asked as the Unicorn’s eyes widen and begins to reach into her pocket.

“You mean I can use this to heal you?”

“Well there is no rules that says you can’t right?” Sweetie Belle looked at the bottle of apple juice in her hand, then back at Saber’s leg before looking back up at Saber. “Just toss it into the air, and I’ll take care of the rest.” Saber said as she straightens herself up and charges at Rider.

“Still up for more huh?” Rider said as she took aim and begins to fire a barrage of bullets at Saber. As she fires, Saber begins to deflect the bullets heading towards her as she quickly moves behind the mass of the boat for cover. “Hiding won’t save you knight! That hunk of wood won’t last forever!”

“Would like for you to heal me now Sweetie Belle!” Saber yelled as it caused Sweetie Belle to break from her train of thought and throw the bottle at the knight. Once the bottle hit Saber, it shattered into bits of data before feeling the injury in her leg heal up. While Rider continued her assault on what was the remains of the mass, Saber quickly used her left gauntlet as a mirror to see Rider’s position for a quick second before quickly darting off to the side to get a better view of the pirate.

“She’s over there! Shoot her dammit! Shoot her!” Shinji ordered as Rider looked over to her left to see Saber quickly charging at her as her sword began to glow.

“Got you now! You’re finished!” Saber said as she brought up her sword and was about to slash Rider, only for her to quickly jump backwards as an explosion appeared from where Saber stood.

“Not bad. Didn’t think you would notice the cannon fire from above.” Rider said as Saber looked up to see four cannons above Rider from some kind of pocket dimension before disappearing behind the doors they came from. “Guess it’s to be expected from someone from the Saber class servants. But how long can you keep dodging my attacks little knight~?” The Pirate asked as she took aim at her as the cannons from before appeared behind her and fired.

“This was a whole lot easier in the games then in real life.” Saber thought before starting to slice & dice the cannonballs heading towards her. While she continued this tactic for a while, she soon felt a sharp pain in her side from feeling one of Rider’s bullets piercing Saber. This caused the knight to stagger some, as Rider took this opportunity to have two of the cannons appear on both side of Saber and fired upon her at point blank range.

“Saber!!!” Sweetie Belle yelled as she watched in horror as Saber exploded from the cannonfire.

“Haha! Serves that freak right for thinking she could win with a servant like that!” Shinji said as he continued to laugh and belittle the young filly. As the cloud of smoke started to clear, it revealed a battered and bleeding Saber with pieces of her armor chipped off but still standing like it didn’t affect her.

“Hm, not a bad surprise attack Rider.” Saber said as she tried to walk off the pain. “But you’ll need more than that to take me down.”

“Oh you are just a treat~.” Rider said as she took aim at the knight. “Let’s see how long you can last with that confidence of yours!”She yelled as the cannons from before appeared around Rider and began to fire at her.

“Can’t afford another hit like that.” The servant thought as she begins to dodge or parry the cannonballs heading towards her. “I gotta end this fast before she uses her Noble Phantasm.”

“Hurry up and put an end to this dammit! We got a grail to win and I’d prefer not to lose to a freak of nature like that thing that servant has as a master!” Shinji yelled as Sweetie Belle turned her attention to Shinji and glared at him. “What? You got a problem freak?”

“Saber! Kick that hairless ape’s servant’s flank!” Sweetie Belle yelled as Saber burst towards Rider, catching her by surprise and deeply grazed her chest as she felt Rider push herself backwards to avoid most of the damage that Saber delt. Rider skidded backwards a bit before stopping and looking down at the deep gash on her chest as blood started to gush a bit from her open wound. While looking at her open wound, Saber took this opportunity to charge at her again as she tried to jab her sword through her heart. Only for Rider to jump out of the way of the sword, and land on a floating debri in the air as she looks down at her.

“Much as I would love to fight you for hours on end, I’m going to have to make this short and end this fight.” Rider said as Saber soon noticed that the coliseum was getting dark and foggy for the most part. Saber’s eyes widened at the sudden realization of what’s going on, she soon took up a defensive stance as she soon found herself standing on top of an ocean of water.

“W-Where are we?” Sweetie Belle asked as she was taken by surprise by the sudden change to the coliseum.

“Now you two are screwed!” Shinji said with a smug expression on his face while thinking he won this match. “Behold! El Draque’s Noble Phantasm!” He said as Saber heard the sounds of cannon fire off in the distance. Looking over at the wall of fog, she quickly took notice of a stray cannonball heading towards her as she quickly jumps out of the way of it and lands off to the side of the explosion. Looking over from where the cannon came from, Saber’s eyes widen upon seeing the armada of ships making its way out of the fog like wall. Standing on the biggest ship of the armada was Rider with three large floating cannons around her.

“....Yep….starting to wish I was in the video game of this holy grail war.” Saber said as she looks back at Sweetie Belle who was trembling in fear from seeing Rider’s Noble Phantasm. “Don’t worry Sweetie Belle. This is nothing that I can’t handle.”

“Are you fucking kidding me!? You can’t handle this shit! You couldn’t even handle Caster on her good day!” Her inner thought said as Saber shook her head.

“It’s fine….I can manage it. I am Saber after all.”

“A fake one. You may have her powers and stuff, but you aren’t the real Saber!”

“Well it’s not like I have much of a choice in the matter.” Saber thought as she gripped the handle of her sword. “I mean, if the servants can do this so can I….right?” She asked as she turn her attention back on Rider with a gulp.

“Remember my name by the death from my passing!” Rider yelled as she makes her way to the front of the ship. “Temeroso el Draque! I am the woman who set the Sun!” She soon looked down at Saber as she along with her armada took aim. “You rascals, it’s time! The King of Storms, a swarm of ghosts, this is the beginning of the Wild Hunt!” With those final words, Rider fired upon Saber with a barrage of bullets from her twin pistols. Upon doing that, the twenty ship armada let loose their entire arsenal of cannonfire at the knight.

Saber closed her eyes for split second as a surge of prana energy erupted from underneath her as she charges at Rider and her armada. As the hail of cannonfire was heading towards Saber, she quickly begins to dodge through the hail of cannon fire for the most part while cutting though the rest of them like butter as she made her way forward. As Saber continued her forward charge, she noticed that the ships were beginning to change their formation pattern as they soon formed a barrakad around Rider’s main ship, The Golden Hind.

“How hard is it to kill that woman!” Shinji yelled as he started to type on the digital keyboard for a while before disappearing as Saber felt herself weakening. “Hurry up and kill her already you stupid servant!”

“It’s not like I’m fighting against a human now am I?” Rider said as she ordered her ships to continue firing at Saber.

Saber continued to dodge, parry, and sliced through the hail of cannonfire aimed at her as she was beginning to feel her strength being drained even more due to Shinji zapping most of her strength, and from dodging Rider’s Noble Phantasm. Just as she landed back on the water, she began to lose her footing due to the cannonballs hitting the water around her. This gave Rider the opportunity to have the cannons that were floating around her to take aim and fire upon her.

“Oh shi-” Before she could finish her cursing to herself, she was soon pelted upon by the triple prana charged cannons causing an explosion to erupt from where the knight was. Rider soon ordered her ships to hold their fire as she looks down at her work. Once the combination of both smoke and water settled down, the only thing that was left of the knight was one of her gauntlet’s, her left leg armor, and a blood stain on the ocean.

“N-No….t-this can’t be happening.” Tears began to form around Sweetie Belle’s eyes as she slumped down into the floor in horror and misery at the remains of her Servant. “S-Saber?”

“Haha! That’s right, you should’ve taken up my offer to lose the battle on purpose and let me win!” Shinji said, gloating while busting out laughing. “A freak like you winning the Holy grail war!? That is so ridiculous!”

“Hm, damn. I was having a good time with her.” Rider said as she turned around at Shinji. “Oi! Master! I better be getting paid twice as much for this match!!”

“Seriously!? I ready paid you before the match even started!”

“Well I want to be paid double for my work! This match was starting to get interesting and I was about to reach my peak of thrill until she died on me! Now are you going to pay me again or-” Before Rider could finish her sentence, Saber’s sword shot through the water underneath the boat and impaled itself into Rider’s heart. Rider’s eyes widened upon feeling the invisible sword run her through as she staggerly looked down at the sword before looking behind her to see a water and blood covered knight panting. Sweetie Belle looked up at the noise as her eyes widened in surprise to see Saber alive.

“Y-You’re alive!?” Both Sweetie Belle and Shinji asked as the young filly began to cry tears of joy.

“Had I not realised that the water wasn’t shallow when I felt my foot sink into the water a bit from the shockwaves from the cannonfire hitting the water. That attack would have killed me.” Saber said as she staggered over to where Rider was standing. “So I figured I'd use that to my advantage and attack you from under the water. Leaving a bit of blood and some of my armor was a good way to lower your guard so I could send some prana into my gauntlet and use it as a guiding rod to hit Rider.” Once Saber was close to Rider, she placed her hand into the gauntlet as she slowly pulled her blood covered sword from out of her chest.

“N-Not bad kid.” Rider said as she began to feel her lungs filling up with blood as Rider’s Noble Phantasm began to disappear. The only thing that was left was the Golden Hind as Rider grinned. “Especially for someone who’s not the real Saber.” She said which took Saber from surprise.

“You knew about that?”

“Not that hard to tell the difference between a human soul and a servant soul.” Rider said as she gave off a weak chuckle. “But who am I to judge someone on how they ended up here in this war. Hell I’m seeing a talking mutant horse so this isn’t a surprise.”

“Hey! I’m not a mutant horse!” Sweetie Belle said as she quickly ran over to Saber’s side.

“Hm, whatever kid. Not like what I say matters. I lost.” Rider said as she noticed Shinji making his way over to her side.

“Wh-What the hell?! How did my Servant get defeated by something like that?!” Shinji asked as he looked over at Rider who simply shrug as he looked back at Saber and Sweetie Belle. “No matter how you look at it, I’m the best! At everything! I can’t lose in the first round!” He said before looking back at Rider. “It….It’s your fault, El Draque! This happened because you suck!”

“Oh sure, blame the Servant. That would make you feel better.” Saber said sarcastically.

“You don’t have a word in this faker! Don’t think I didn’t overheard what El Draque said about you. That freak cheated and used a fake to cheat the system so you could win!”

“Huh? Flogging a waterlogged sailor, are we?” Rider said as she shook her head. “It won’t reverse your fortunes, master.”

“Argh! If you got the energy to talk back, then go fight! There’s no way I’m losing this!”

“Hmm, I don’t think that’s happening. Did you forget I’ve been stabbed in the heart? I’m going to disappear.”

“Say what?! You think you can run away and leave me here? I lost because of you!”

“....My fault? Perhaps. Or it could have been carelessness. Or a lack of tenacity, luck, ability, etc..” Rider said with a smirk. “Well whatever. Fortune is fickle and fate is what we make of it. We lost for a reason. We may be strong, but we didn’t have what it takes to win.”

“Why are you making it sound like somebody else’s problem? I did what I’m supposed to do! I’m the best!” He said as he stomped the ground around him. “It wasn’t supposed to go like this. You ruined everything by becoming my Servant! Useless! Damn it! I can’t believe I lost! This game sucks! Suuuucks!”

“Geez, and I thought Blueblood had a superiority complex.” Saber said as she looked over at Sweetie Belle, who was just holding on to her for comfort and relief. “Sweetie Belle. When we head back, we’re going to have a little talk about what happened during the fight. Okay?”

“I-I’m in trouble aren’t I?” Sweetie Belle asked as she fidgets a bit while looking down like a child would if she was being scolded for getting into trouble.

“You’re not in trouble, just want to run something by you so we can improve you.” She said as she ruffled up the young filly’s mane a bit before lifting her up onto her shoulders. “Come along Sweetie Belle. Let’s go back to our room so I can recover from today’s fight.”

“Should I...heal you now or wait until we get back to our room?”

“Would’ve been nice if you done that during my fight when I got hit by that cannonfire...but I think we should wait until we get back to our room for you to heal me.” Saber answered as she and Sweetie Belle were about to leave the coliseum. Only for them to be stopped by Shinji calling out to them as they looked back.

“Hey...W-Wait! Hey! I’ve got an idea. How about you declare that I won the battle.” The boy said as both Sweetie Belle and Saber looked at him with a tired deadpanned expressions on their faces. “B-B-Because, you know, you just won this battle by accident! There’s a one-hundred percent chance you’ll lose in the second round. But I’ll win it for sure. Think about it. Isn’t it better for one of us to keep winning than for you to lose in the next round?”

“This guy can’t be serious?” Saber asked as she looked up as Sweetie Belle who simply sighed in annoyance. “Yeah, not worth our time.” With that, Saber continued to take Sweetie Belle back to their room.

“Hey...Wait. I said wait! Can’t you see the equation? I’m saying I’ll share the Holy Grail with you!”

“Cut it out, Shinji. You lost and you know it. You can’t change what happen.” Rider said as Shinji quickly turn back at Rider.

“Shut up! We lost because of you! What makes you think you have the right to act so calm?!” Shinji ruffled up his own hair in anger as he looked back at Sweetie Belle and Saber. “Damn it! You may have won this one game, but don’t get a big head over it. In real life, I’m still a champion! Listen, I don’t know who you are or where you came from. But when I get home, I’m gonna figure out who you really are and-” Just as Shinji was about to continue his rant, he soon pointed a finger at them as he noticed his hand corroding. “-Wha?! Wh-What the hell is going on? M-My body’s...disappearing?! I’ve never logged out like this!”

While Shinji was busy looking at his corroding body, a red digital like wall appeared from the side as it soon stopped in front of Sweetie Belle and Saber. Saber looked upon Shinji and his servant’s body corroding as black blotches started to spread all over their bodies with little emotions as she knew this was to be expected from when they felt that happening to then when they met Ruler. Sweetie Belle on the other hand looked at them in shock and horror as Shinji lets out a desperate cry as his arms, legs, and torso gradually fizzle into blackness.

“Losers die in the Holy Grail War. As a Master, you should have known that, Shinji.” Rider said as she placed a hand to her hip as she shook her head.

“What?! D-Die?! But just our avatars get erased, right? There’s no way you can die in a virtual world.”

“Yes.You lose, you die. This is a “war,” not a “game.” Mostly everyone who joins this war ends up dead. The sole survivor is the only one who can go home alive.”

“Wha...No way! That isn’t funny!” Shinji said as he began to tremble in fear from what he was being told. “But it’s a tournament! So it’s a game, right? RIght?! Aaagh! Wh-Why isn’t this stopping?! D-Do something! Isn’t a Servant supposed to help their Master?!”

“If it was easy to break the rules, they wouldn’t have created them in the first place. But, well...the good and bad both are sent off to another world in the end. It’s nothing to complain about.”

“Acting like you know so much! Aren’t you ashamed at all?! First you lose and now this?!” A serious expression appeared on Rider’s face as she walks over to Shinji, grabbed him by the collar, and glared at him with her one eye that hasn’t been corroded by blackness.

“Hmm? Am I ashamed? Of course I am. I’m so disgusted with myself that I could throw up. But, remember what I told you when we made our contract, little boy? Be prepared, because a villain’s final moments are laughably miserable!” Rider said as she gives off a hearty laugh as her body was being erased from the system. “Considering the things you’ve done and said, this isn’t such a bad death. Just let yourself go, Shinji.” The Servant said as she looked over at Saber and Sweetie Belle. Well mostly Sweetie Belle who was on the urge of tear from seeing her and Shinji disappearing before her eyes. “And you folks over there, let’s hear some laughter, huh? It’s sad when a clown doesn’t get a laugh.”

Sweetie Belle tried to get in a few words in to say something to Rider, but all that came out was nothing but hiccups and gaspes. Rider simply shrugs as she grins at her with the brightest of smiles.

“It’s going to be tough for you kid. This is the outcome for you each time you win a fight with a Master and Servant. But don’t look so sad or give into depression kid. Learn from this fight, and press onwards so you can get back to where ever you came from. I’m sure that your friends and family are waiting for you to return. May the rest of your journey go well. I’d like it if you ended up stronger than me. In life, I fought against military ships. It’s against my nature to enjoy fighting weaker opponents.” As she turned a forced smile at the young pony and Servant, the female pirates body disappeared into black ashes.

“Heh. Even with her heart stabbed and her body disappearing. She still went out laughing like she enjoyed it. That's the world’s greatest navigator, and the first person to circumnavigate the world for yeah.” Saber said as she looked over at Shinji with a terrorfied expression on his face as Saber knew that this was his fate for losing.

“H-Hey! Who gave you permission to disappear like that?! You gotta help me! Don’t leave me!” He said while looking around frantically for a while before looking over at Sweetie Belle. “You! You gotta help me! Please! If it weren’t for you I wouldn’t be in this situation right now! You owe me!”

“B-But….I-I-I.” Sweetie Belle couldn’t say anything but those words as she was overcome with fear upon seeing both Shinji’s body and the scared/crazy expression on his face. This caused the young pony to hold onto Saber’s head for comfort as she hide her face into her hair and folded her ears down to block out the noises. “No please I beg you! I’m sorry for calling you all thoses names! I’m sorry for cheating and stuff just please help me!”

“I’m sorry, but we can’t help you.” Saber said emotionlessly as she stared at the boy. “Rules are rules. You lose the Holy Grail War, then you die.”

“Waah! I’m really disappearing!? Why? Why does it feel like I’m going to die in real life, too?! What the hell?! This is Crazy! Help!” Shinji started to slam his fists against the digital wall in an attempt to try to either break it or for them to help him get out. “Why aren’t you helping me?! I’m only eight years old. I don’t want to die yet! Help me-!” With one more hit to the wall, Shinji’s body started to give way to his own weight as he soon crumbled into nothing but black ashes. Just like Rider did as her body disappeared.

“...Such a sad way to go.” Saber said as she turned around and began to make her way out of the coliseum. “But a fitting one for a child who was so prideful of himself. I blame that kid’s parents if they raised him to be like this.”

Author's Note

With the free time I had from college and work I finally got the time to work on some of the stories that I been putting off for some time. Sorry for the long wait for this story.

Chapter 1: Our heroes fillies & gentle colts.

It was a bright and sunny day in Canterlot. The sun was shining, the air was clear of any clouds thanks to Canterlot weather control, and not a single monster in sight. (at the moment) Yep this was a perfect day for the ponies in Canterlot to continue their daily lives underneath the golden sun....Well almost perfect as three displaced humans were running through the streets of Canterlot trying to avoid a certain captain of the royal guards with a squad of royal guard ponies.

To what the ponies could tell one of the creatures were wearing shining silvery armor, with an old styled dress made from old fashioned blue cloth. Stuck to her back was her sword encased in a blue & yellow sheath. The other creature was wearing a white & pink striped hoodie with bunny ears on it, black shorts that matched the same color as her stockings and shoes, and had a blue mirror on her back. And the third creature had golden yellow hair, and was wearing lust luscious gold armor around her left arm and legs along with a red cape around her waist.

"Keep running Saber, I don't wanna die at a young age!" Yelled Caster.

"I am running you idiot, but it's kinda hard to when you’re wearing armor with crappy footing!" Said Saber.

"Halt in the name of Celestia!" Yelled Shining Armor. "I said halt dammit!"

“You know saying that isn’t gonna make us stop running you know!?” Gilgamesh yelled back.

Meanwhile off in Canterlot castle, Princess Celestia & Princess Luna were watching the three humans running away from Shining Armor and his squad. Normally Celestia would do something about this, but then again you don’t see this kind of thing in Canterlot. Stuff like this would usually be seen happening in ponyville, what with it for some reason being almost every villains target or stepping stone to world domination.

“Sister should we do something about this?” Asked Luna.

“I know we should,” Said Celestia taking a sip from her tea. “But I, and don’t judge me on this. But I actually want to see how this turns out. I mean it’s not everyday you see something like this in Canterlot right?”

“Oh thank Faust, for a second there I thought I was the only one thinking that.” Luna levitated a bucket of popcorn and a beanbag chair and sat in front of the window to watch the humans. “50 bits says they’ll escape the royal guards.”

“200 bits says they won’t.”

(Back to were the real action is.)

“Run like school girls!” Yelled Caster.

“We are you dumbass!” Yelled Gilgamesh as she looked behind to see more guards chasing after them. “How the hell did we even get into this mess?”

“I think it started when we woke up in an abandon house, us looking for directions on where we are, and you punched that guard dude in the face for slapping your ass.” Saber answered.

“Hey he had it coming! I mean who does something like that and try to act like he didn’t do anything?”

“I did that once to you, and you didn’t mind it remember?” Said Caster.

“You’re an idiot so I let most of the stuff you do to me slide. Now back to more pressing matters, what are we gonna do about the knights chasing after us?”

“We could always jump on the roof tops? Judging by the way they look, I doubt they can fly.” Said Saber. “Plus we pretty much running out of options.”

“Hm…...Eh why not,” Gilgamesh summoned a magical chain from out of nowhere and launched at a near by building. “Ladies I would recommend you all to hold on to me.” As instructed Saber and Caster launched themselves onto Gilgamesh and trio were launched into the air.

“What the hell!?” Said Shining Armor watching the humans fly off. “Quick!! Get the Wonderbolts and have them fly after them.”

“We can’t sir the Wonderbolts are performing at the children orphanage today.” Said Flash Sentry.

“Oh…..right…..then you go after them.” Shining Armor ordered.

“Oh hell no I’m not going after them, did you not see what that creature with red eyes did to Iron Head when he slapped that creatures flank again?”

“Oh come on it wasn’t that bad.”

“Why don’t you go see him now after they finish relocating his jaw, and get that kendo stick out of his flank then?”

“Well we can’t just let them go, what are we suppose to tell Celestia? “Oh hey Celestia sorry but we got our flanks handed to us by a knight, a fox maiden, and a some kind of royal queen.”

“Ok sir I get it.”

“What you’re pissed sorry we failed three to four time we’ll try our best next time.”

“Ok fine I’ll go after them!” Flash Sentry opened his wings, and dashed off towards the runaways. “*Sigh* I don’t get paid enough for this crap.”

“HA! Suck it losers we’re flying with style!” Said Caster as she rode Gilgamesh like a surf board.

“Caster you got about five seconds to stop doing that, or I’m gonna drop you like a ton of bricks just like in elementary school.”

“Oh you’re no fun you know that?”

“And you’re an idiot.”

“Um ladies not to interrupt your little argument, but look behind us.” Saber pointed at a pegasus that was flying at them.

“Stop in the name of Celestia please!?”

“Don’t worry I got this.” Said Caster as she cleared her throat. “No.”

“Oh come on please I don’t get paid enough for this crap.”

“Still no.”

“Fine then, than I guess I won’t warn you about the wall you three are gonna hit.”

“What wa-?” Before Saber could finish her sentence, the trio slammed face first into a solid brick wall. “Oh that wall…..ouch.” Like a cartoon character from an old tv show Saber, Caster, & Gilgamesh fell smack dab to the ground leaving a small crater onto the ground.

“You see?” He said with a smug grin on his face. “If you would of stop running away, this wouldn’t have happen right?” Caster looked up at him as she pulled out a talisman and launched it at him.

“Huh?”

“Try this mister know-it-all jerk.” She then made hand signatures as the talisman started to glow. “Frigid Heaven!” Upon saying that Flash Sentry was frozen in a block of ice as he landed onto the ground. “Well that should “cool you off” for a while.” Caster heard a moan from her friends as she turned around. “What?”

“Worst...pun...ever.” Said Gilgamesh face palming herself from hearing that.

“Not one of your best ones, sweetie.” Said Saber.

“Oh whatever like you could think of a better one?”

“Better than that corny ass one that’s for sure.”

Just as Caster was about to tell Gilgamesh off, they heard a familiar voice behind them yelling at them. “THERE THEY ARE!! DON’T LET THEM ESCAPE!!”

“Oh come on!” Said Caster stomping her foot on the ground out of anger. “Why won’t they just give up already!?”

“Because they’re guards remember? They’ll keep chasing us until we give up.” Saber answered as she pulled her sword out. “And seeing how we’re out of places to run, I would recommend we fight.”

“Whoa wait a minute we still don’t know how to use our powers yet. I mean we only know how to use some of the legendary heroes powers, but not all of them.” Said Gilgamesh.

“It’s better than having none, plus I know how to use a sword so it can’t be that bad?”

“You only use a kendo sword when we go to kendo practice, there’s a huge difference between the two.”

“It still count as a sword, anyway Caster, you in on this?”

“Oh, you bet I am.” She said as she pulled five talisman from out of her sleeves, and into both her hands. “What about you Gilgamesh, you in?”

“*Sigh* Fine I’m in player two is ready.” She said as she snapped her fingers summoning three magical gold color portals around herself. “But let’s not kill them, just knock them out so we can get the fuck out of dodge.”

“Surrender creatures or else we will take you to the princesses by force if we have to.” Said Shining Armor drawing out his spear, along with the rest of the royal guards.

“Listen here you small dick soldiers!” Yelled Gilgamesh. “You were the ones that attacked us!”

“No that was you.” Said Saber.

“You also slapped my ass like it was just like a piece of candy in a candy store!”

“Yeah that’s not cool.” Said Caster.

“And you made me drop my ice cream!”

“What does that have to do with this?” Asked Saber.

“......You mind I’m on a roll here?” Asked Gilgamesh. “Right...what was I saying again? Oh fuck it just kick there asses!”

(Canterlot Castle)

“HA! See luna I told you they would be captured by the guards!” Celestia said sticking her tongue out at Luna.

“Don’t count them out just yet sister. Just as the old saying said even a mouse will attack if he is cornered.”

(Royal Guards vs Servants)

“Take this “Chaos Heaven!!” Caster threw a talisman into the center of the crowd hitting one of the guards. As it made contact a huge gust of wind appeared out of nowhere causing some of the royal guards to be thrown into the air. “Hey leafing so soon? I was just getting started.” She fired another talisman that them again. “Why don’t you stay and cool off? “Frigid Heaven!”

A giant block of ice appeared from the ground, freezing any guards that were caught up in range of the attack. “Aw and here I thought you boys were hot enough for me “Fiery Heaven!” Caster fired another talisman at the frozen guards, as the talisman came in contact with the ice a huge column of fire surrounded the ice. As the ice melted royal guards were popping out of it, like a popcorn over the stove. “Wow these boys do look better in hot pants don’t you think?”

“Caster, for the love of god, I will kick your ass if you keep saying those stupid puns of yours.” Said Gilgamesh firing of barrages of kendo sticks at the royal guards she’s fighting against. “I Mean really is this the best time for you to act like an idiot?”

“Hey there’s always a time to have a little fun while fighting.”

“Yes but not at this time.” Said Saber as she parried or broke some of the royal guards spears. “Plus I think after this we’re gonna be classified as criminals for fighting these knights?”

“Oh yeah there’s that of course.” Said Gilgamesh bitch slapping one of the guard ponies in face. “Ha! I just bitch slap someone for the first time!”

“Grrrr...Achemages! Prepare to fire!” Shining Armor yelled as a group of ponies wearing purple and gold robes appeared in front of him in formation. “Hit them with your strongest spell, but don’t kill them!” He ordered as the mages started chanting their spells.

“Um guys I think we might want to brace ourselves.” Said Caster.

“Why’s that?” Saber asked. Caster pointed to the archmages in the background. “Oh that’s why.”

“FIRE!!!”

Upon hearing that the archmages fired their now fully charged arcane magic at the three servants. The attack made contact with them, but was blocked by magical bubble like shield surrounding them. “WHAT THE BUCK!?” Caster opened her eyes thinking that they were dead, only to see the magical bubble barrier surrounding her and her friends. “Oh right I forgot about the servant classes magic resistance skill thing.”

“And you didn’t tell us this why?” Asked Gilgamesh.

“Well I forgot about it at the time.”

“....I’ll deal with you later but first.” She said as she bitch slapped another royal guard, this time with a kendo stick. “Pop quiz how many time does it take to beat a moron to death?” She asked.

“Um…. Run away!”

“Run away?”

“RUN AWAY!”

“BAM! Sorry time’s up you’re dead!” Gilgamesh snapped her finger as she summon another barrage of kendo sticks at the fleeing guards hitting them upon impact and knocking them out. “Ok I’m not gonna lie, but I always wanted to do that.”

“See I told you so.”

“Shut up Caster.”

(A few hours later)

“Huh looks like there’s only five left.” Said Saber

“Please don’t hurt me I have a wife who a griffon, she’ll kill me if I can’t get this weeks pay!”

“Really?....Hold on a second.” Gilgamesh snapped her fingers as a bag appeared out of nowhere landed in from of the pony guard.

“Umm… thank you?”

“Open it.”

The guard pony slowly opens the bag and looks in side. His eyes then go wide at the number of bits in the bag. The guard pony was at a loss for words looking between the bag and Gilgamesh.

“Are you giving this to me?”

“Eh why not I’m in a good mood today, plus I was able to fulfill some of my dreams today so take it.”

The pony guard bite his lip as he looks at the bag, then he start to cry and sob.

“I’m sorry but I can’t take it!”

“Please take it, it’s yours to keep.”

“But the others will think I took a bribe from you then I’ll be kicked out of the Guard!”

“This isn’t a bribe, knight. This is me showing generosity. Plus I think you’re rulers will beg to differ.” Gilgamesh looked up to see a white alicorn princess wearing a white robe like dress, and a dark blue alicorn wearing the same outfit but a different color. The five remaining guards all bowed in attention as they saw their rulers “Isn’t that right ladies?”

“Rise my little warriors. Have to say that was quite a show you put on for us.” Said Celestia as she walked over some of the knocked out guards. “It’s been years since I’ve seen this kind of action in Canterlot.”

“Indeed, you can only see this in ponyville what with it’s being a target for weird things happening there.” Said Luna walking beside Celestia. “Pray tell, who are three?”

“The names Gilgamesh, King of heroes.”

“Saber, King of the knights.”

“King?” Questioned Celestia. “Why not Queen or Princess?”

“Cause those title are not fitted for me. Plus king is a better title for me.”

“And why is that?”

“Sorry can’t tell you, spoilers.”

“.....Ok, and who might you be Miss?”

“You can call me caster or Tamamo-no-Mae if you want.”

“Why do you have two names instead of one?” Asked Luna.

“Because silly, Caster is the name of my class. While Tamamo-no-Mae is my real name.”

“Really now?” Celestia raised a brow at Saber. “Care to tell me your real name is?”

“.....no.”

“Why not?”

“It’s a stupid name, that why.”

“It can’t be that bad can it?”

“Her real name is Artoria Pendragon.” Caster said.

“CASTER!”

“You were raised by a dragon?” Luna Asked. “No wonder you’re immune to that barrage of arcane magic.”

“I was not raised by dragons, and that whole immune to magic thing is because of my anti magic ability I have. Which pretty much nullifies any spells that are lower than A rank.”

“Hm interesting, would you three like to follow me to our castle?” Celestia asked which cause the servants and the remaining royal guards to “what?”

“Princess you can be serious about this?” Asked Shining Armor. “I mean they took out almost all of the royal guards with even breaking a sweat.”

“I know and it’s because of that I would like to ask them something, but first why don’t we get something to eat?”

“Question,” Caster said raising her hand up. “Will there be meat?”

“I take it you’re carnivores?”

“Omnivores actually, but after fighting against your guards it pretty much made us hungry.” Said Saber.

“Understandable, now come we have a dinner to prepare.”

“W-Wait.” Said Shining Armor before the princesses left with the humans. “What about the guards that they knocked out, and the pony that was given that bribe from that human?” He said pointing at Gilgamesh.

“I’ll call in the medical team for this, and as for the pony you heard what Gilgamesh said right? It’s a gift to him not a bribe. Now come along.” With that the princesses and the servants walked off towards the castle, leaving a very stressed out and very confuse Shining Armor with his mouth open. “Oh and be a dear and call your sister and her friends as well if you don’t mind?”

“I wonder if it’s not too late to retire at a young age?”

“End of Chapter 1.”

Chapter 8: Another odd day that involves fluffy wolves

(Servant’s Equestria)

“DAMMIT CASTER I’M GOING TO FUCKING KILL YOU!” Yelled Gilgamesh, who was chasing after Caster with a golden axe.

“Hey it’s not my fault, your hair was too shiny and goldy. So I figure you needed a new color.” Caster said while dodging Gilgamesh’s attacks. “Plus you needed a new look anyway.”

“When I get my hands on you I’m so gonna kill you!”

“You know I’ll just keep coming back after you kill me~” Caster replied in a singing tone.

“......Aren’t you gonna stop them?” Luna asked her servant, while watching the scene take place. “You are the only one that seems to keep them from kill each other.”

“Normally I would, but seeing how I’m still in my alter form I might more harm than good.” Saber answered taking a seat next to Luna. “Shouldn’t you get your sister to do that?”

“She would but…….”

“Oh god what did she do this time?”

“She’s in jail after giving Derpy back her powers over muffin based foods.”

“........Do we need to get her out?”

“If I wanted her out I would of got her out the minute she was thrown in jail.” Luna levitated the remote next to her, and turn it to the game station. “For now let’s just enjoy our alone time and play some-.” Just as she was about to play, both her and Saber were teleported off to who knows where.”

“Hey where did Luna and Saber go?” Asked Caster.

“They got summoned by someone stupid, and they won’t be back for some time.” Gilgamesh answered.

“Oh ok…….Falcon Punch!” Caster punched Gilgamesh in the face, causing her to let go of Caster.

“Ow! Son of a-.”

“I regret nothing!” She said as she runs out the door.

(Somewhere in a different Equestria)

Out in the everfree that morning, only three creatures could be seen actually enjoying that day in the creepy forest. One small unicorn, and two wolves.

“Hurry up slowpokes!” Sweetie belle giggled as she ran ahead.

“One second! There’s something over here!” Amaterasu yelled as she noticed something hanging from a tree branch.

“What is it?” The unicorn asked, running back.

“Who cares.” Chibiterasu moaned, flopping on the ground.

Hanging from a tree branch was a keychain. Only this one emitted a strange magical pulse.

“Is it another token?” Amaterasu asked.

“If it is… Hey! Weren’t you just telling me that the princess gave you a lecture on that?!” Sweetie belle shouted.

“Weeelll…”

“Again, WHO CARES?!” Chibi yelled.

“Shut it.”

“It sure is pretty…” Sweetie mutters, tapping it with her hoof.

In an instant it started to glow a bright white, opening a portal. Out of the portal was a human clad in black armor, with pale yellow hair that matched her eyes, and jet black and red sword. Next to her was an anthro version of Princess Luna who was wearing a blue long sleeve shirt with black and white stripes, and blue jeans.

“Um…...hi.” Said Saber giving them a awkward smile which showed off her sharp jagged teeth.

“Well. Didn’t expect that was a token.” The smaller wolf laughed.

“MONSTER!” Sweetie squealed, running as fast as she could away from there.

“Goddamnit.” Amaterasu sighed.

“Hey! Don’t call my servant a monster.” Said Luna hugging her servant in defense.

“I think she was talking about you!” Chibi laughed again.

“I said shut it! Go get Sweetie would ya?” Amaterasu scolded.

“Fiiine.” He moaned, getting up and walking out.

“Anyways, Who exactly are you two?” Amaterasu addressed.

“I am Princess Luna and this is my servant Saber.” Luna said as Saber waved to Amaterasu. “Care to tell us who you are fluffy?”

“If you want fluffy, Talk to the wolf who just ran off. Anyways, My name is Amaterasu, I guess second sun.. goddess. Well, Second to our Celestia. I see you’re no stranger to Displaced.”

“We met a few of them, so far they been pretty nice towards us. Though the stories they told us about how some of them got turn to stone due to their appearance…...well we just pretty much smack their worlds princesses in the face.”

“Huh. Try being asleep for around a thousand years. Anyways, We didn’t mean to summon you, It was just Sweetie Belle getting curious. You can leave or what-” A snarl soon hit the air as a rock flew through the air.

“SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT CRAGADILE INCOMING!” chibi shouted, running past.

Amaterasu sighed. “What did you do this time?!”

“Hey! Shut up and get some scales with that magic sword you got!”

“Allow us to deal with that, Saber if you would?”

“Yes Master.” Saber said as she charged at the beast, like a bullet being fired out of a gun.

“So care to tell me what’s a cragadile?” Asked Luna.

“Think an crocodile on steroids, then basically glue rocks all over it’s body and you’ll almost got a Cragadile.” Amaterasu explained.

“Interesting….Saber! Kill then take the body with us when we leave!” Luna ordered as Saber dodge the Cragadile’s attack. “Wait till Celestia see what I got on my visit through the multiverse.”

“Ok… I think I’m more afraid of your universe than the last one we went to.” Amaterasu stated.

“Hey our world is not dangerous, though you want to be careful of Derpy for the moment.”

“Derpy? Why Derpy?”

“Little bit of advice, don’t let Nightmare Moon wander off after she get’s her wisdom teeth removed. Cause if she does, you’ll end up having a Derpy who can control muffin base foods.”

“That doesn’t sound terrifying. It sounds amazing!” Chibi shouted.

“Prepare to be surprise if you end up being chased by giant muffins that want to eat you.”

“Not so amazing.”

“Saber hurry up and kill that thing already!”

“On it!” Saber knocked the beast off guard as she pushed herself back from it. As she did prana energy started to burst from her sword.

“Now die! Excalibur!” Saber unleashed her noble phantasm upon the most, sending a wave of crimson black & red prana energy through the beast and past Canterlot. “Oops….I think I might have overdone it that time.”

“Why do I feel like this is going to end up with me getting lectured again…” Ammy sighed

“Well…..at least it didn’t hit anything in Cant-.” Just as she said that, the blast hit the side of Celestia’s room. Not to much for it to be damage, but enough to get notice by certain ponies. “Oh it’s high school all over again for me.”

“Goddamnit… I so hope Celly didn’t-”

“AMATERASUUUUUUU!”

“.... Nope, I just can’t deal with her today!”

“Don’t worry I’ll handle this.” Said Luna calling Saber to her side. “I mean how bad can it be?”

“... I’ll go get the sponge…” Chibi sighed.

“Wait what?”

“Our Celestia tends to ramble on when lecturing someone… I needed something for earplugs. If I was gonna get lectured…” Amaterasu explained.

“Huh, reminds me of how my parents lecture me when I accidentally turn the moon into cheese that one time.”

“Here she comes.” Saber said pointing at the pissed of Alicorn landing towards them.

“It wasn’t my fault this time!” Amaterasu instantly shouted as the Alicorn landed.

“It was so totally your fault.” Chibi egged on from the corner.

“You’re not helping!!!”

“Hey! If anything we’re the ones that saved those three from a that cragadile thing.” Luna proudly said.

“I sent those two out here to collect scales for my previous student.The have their methods.” Celestia calmly said.

“That’s what I kinda was trying to explain?” Amaterasu nervously smiled.
“Then why didn’t you do it yourself then Celestia?” Saber asked.

“Luna was… Er…” Her face grew a quick shade of crimson.

“Oh dear god, Here we go again....” Chibi sighed.

“What?”

“She made me…” She coughed. “Work thy royal flank to the gym.”she said in an impression of Luna. She lowered her head.

“......You know if my sister was here she would be laughing her flank, mostly because after getting a good look at you she could tell that you need to lose some weight.” Said Luna giggling a bit from the thought of it.

“I did not need to hear that impression again.” Chibi sighed.

“Speaking of where is this world’s Luna?”

(Somewhere in Canterlot Castle)

“I do hope Tia doesn’t mind that I’m putting her on a diet.” Luna mutters, using her magic to throw her sister’s cake stash into a dumpster.

(Back to the everfree)

“I think she was heading back to the- Wait, Why are we idly chit-chatting!?”

“Cause it’s fun, plus your dork.” Luna answered while playing with a handheld video game.

“Actually you are kinda-”

“Be quiet.”

“Does everyone hate me?!”

“Luna and I don’t hate you.” Saber Answered. “If you were in our world, then you wouldn’t have to deal with up tight ponies like Celestia over there.”

“Meh. I’m fine here.”

“Suit yourself.” Luna said as she pulled magically summoned a bottle of wine in front of herself. “What? I’m on vacation for the next 1,000 years or so, don’t judge me.”

“... Amaterasu? Are you sure you didn’t summon these ones? I already gave you a lecture about the other two that arrived here!” Celestia started yelling.

“Oh god, now she’s gonna go on and on…” Ammy complained.

“Hey lay off her will you?” Luna said after taking a sip from her drink. “You should be getting used to seeing weird stuff like this happening. Hell if my sister was ok with have displaced humans come by our world, then you should be used to seeing stuff like this. Or do I need to tell Ammy here about certain embarrassing things about you sister?”

“W-we’re T-two different ponies, Me and Y-your celestia! W-what could you possibly k-know about me?!”

“You got dirt on Celly? TELL ME NOW!” Amaterasu begged.

“Honey I’m reading her mind right now as we speak, and so far her my sister are almost the same. Like this one time with your Celestia got drunk with one nobles from the Kirin nation son-”.”

“That’s enough! That was only one time!” Celestia’s face turned near blood red.

“Yeah just like the time when you sleep with Chrysalis as well right?”

“I-I-” Without saying another word, Celestia flew off, her mane practically on fire.

“You can’t run away from your mistake Celestia! I know everything about you!”

“I’m getting the feeling that your Luna’s not gonna be happy about this.” Said Saber.

“Meh. If you really want to meet her, I know just the thing to piss her off.” Amaterasu joked.

Luna turn her attention toward Amaterasu after hearing that. “Oh please do!”

“Alright. Prepare for Pissy Lulu.” Amaterasu muttered.

Focusing her magic power, A ink line in the shape of a crescent suddenly was drawn in the sky. It burst away, turning the sky dark and changing the sun into the moon.

“Three… Two… One.”

“AMAATERASUUU!” A different voice yelled. For one, it was much louder.

With a pop an angry princess luna was standing in front of the group.

“I’ve told you one too many times the Nig- Who are these ponies?”

“I am you from the distant future! We must stop the angel of chaos before they destroy Equestria!” Luna said in a dramatic fashion.

A single cricket chirped in the background. “Oh screw you all I thought it was funny.” She said as she took another drink from her special wine bottle. “Anyway all jokes aside I’m an alternate universe version of you Moonpie.”

“... Is this another one of those… Er…” “Moonpie” Muttered.

“Yes, Luna these are more Displaced.” Chibi said.

“Take a guess which of us is the displaced.” Luna said as her servant stood next to her.

“Erm… Whoever… Isn’t me?” She questioned.

“Correct!.....Hold a second.” Luna bent down and reached into her shadow, she then pulled out an anthro version of nightmare moon wearing a steampunk outfit with glasses on. “I thought you said that moonshine we made was suppose to strong, so far I’m not buzzed off my flank at the moment.”

“Could be that your body build up an immunity towards it.” Nightmare Moon answered.

“Ok. I have no idea what’s weirder, Seeing Nightmare moon come from… you/me or that other time with those two displaced.” P. Luna stated.

“Prepare to a lot of weird stuff like this.” Saber said as Luna hugged Saber. “At least you deal with her sister at times.”

“That remind me, Celly needs to be back at the gym now.” Luna stated normally.

“Yeah good luck with that, after what I did to her she’ll be hiding in her room from the next few hours or so.” Luna said as she was laughing. “Man she had a lot a secret stuff she been keeping from you Luna.”

“I bet. Well, I’d better pull her out from under her bed.” With a pop, Lulu vanished.

“Darn, wanted to tell her that she had another secret stash of cakes hidden underneath Twilight’s home.” Luna shrugged. “Oh well her loss.”

“Really? She does?” Ammy asked.

Luna magically summoned a book right in front of Ammy. “Here’s a book with both your worlds Luna & Celestia secrets, both weird and funny as hell secrets to use on them if they give you any trouble.”

“Wow. Cool. I now feel like giving you something in exchange.” She muttered.

“Hm….I might have someone that you might want to teach some of you spells you have.” Luna pulled out a talisman, and summoned a girl with fox ears from out of thin air.

“When there’s no more room in hell, I Tamamo-Na-Mae shall rise a-.” Caster paused as she looked around to see Luna, Saber, Sweetie Belle, and two adorable wolves. “Of the hell, what the hell?”

“Ok… Yeah…. Who is this?”

“Introducing Caster aka the original Amaterasu of the japanese folk tales. Basically She’s kinda like you just with more tricks up her bunny hoodie sleeves.” Saber said.

Caster focus her attention towards the the two wolfs. “Hello!”

“S’up?”

“When did she get here?” Chibi muttered.

“Shut up.”

“You’re mean.”

“To answer your question little one…...magic.” Caster said as she patted Chibi on the head. “And for the record I’m the original Amaterasu of the killing stone, so that makes me older than you two.”

“Yeah but not the brightest.” Muttered Saber.

“Uh… Are you sure She’s… erm.. Bright enough to learn the brush skills I know?” Ammy said privately to Luna.

“Just because she’s not the brightest, doesn’t mean she’s that stupid to know how to use a brush. Hell she able to do that with her talisman she has on her.”

“A-alright then…”
“Yay I get to learn more spells than the one’s I have now. This will be useful when using my noble phantasm.”

“ I know quite a few… Uhhh… I’ve never actually taught anyone… this kind of stuff.”

“It shouldn’t be that hard. I mean all you have to do is show her how to do it, and she’ll be able to do it.”

“Alright. I’ll make no promises I can do this however.”

“Oh don’t worry, I’m a faster learner.” Said Caster hugging chibi like a plushy.

“AAAnndd there’s the hugging!”

“How can I not hug him, he’s so adorable just like Sweetie Belle.” She said as her tail was holding onto Sweetie Belle.

“Well… That’s one mystery solved.” Chibi muttered.

“Caster you can’t keep them.” Said Saber.

“Aw! You can’t let me have this can’t you?”

“Mostly because they belong here.”

“Will you exchange them for a token?” Ammy bargained.

“What kind of token?” Caster asked.

“I think I might have it - Wait, Sweetie, Give Caster the token I told you to.. keep safe.”

Reaching into her mane, Sweetie pulled out a small photo.

“That’s it.”

“A photo?”

“It’s a weird thing but me and Chibi got sent to another Displaced’s world by that and… I really don’t want to remember that adventure..”

“Fair enough.” She said letting go of Chibi & Sweetie Belle.

“Just a fair warning, Don’t summon her unless you want Innuendos galore… NO REFUNDS.” Ammy said to Caster, shutting off her Telepathy and pulling chibi and Sweetie behind her.

“Oh, This will be useful in case someone tries to attack me.” Caster summoned her mirror and placed the photo into it. “There we go.”

“So, Ready to learn some spells?”

“Yep!”

“I’ll give you four to pick from, Power slash, Cherry Bomb and- Hell, I’ll just show you all four that I know so far. ”

“Sweet!”

“First, Cherry Bomb. Don’t attempt this indoors.” In midair, a circle was suddenly drawn with black ink with a line going halfway out the top like a few. It burst away to reveal a lit paper bomb. Ammy kicked it a fair ways away and watched it blow up in an explosion of color.

“Oh. Ok my turn!” Caster drew the same sign as Ammy did, only with hers the cherry bomb was bigger and landed on top of Saber and exploded. As the explosion clear Saber had a magical bubble barrier around herself.

“It’s a good thing servants have anti magic resistance on them at all times.” Saber said

“Huh. Well anyways, Next is Power Slash.” Ammy drew a straight line across a tree. When the ink burst away, A burst of light shone and the tree suddenly fell down in pieces. “Can cut through any object. I dunno about armor.”

Caster looks at Saber with a devilish smile on her face. “Let’s find out?” She said as she drew the sign for Power Slash at Saber. Which in turn did no damage to her, but is did damage and knocked down ten trees.

“I’m getting the feeling you’re gonna use me as a test dummy for this are you?” Saber asked.

“Yep.”

Ammy chuckled and continued. “Alright… Lemme see… Does anyone have a source of fire or water?”

“Oh I do!” Caster answered as she threw two talismans onto the ground, summoning up a stream of water & fire.

“Cool, Alright, First Inferno.” Ammy drew a line across from the stream of fire to go straight across left. In an instant a pillar of fire erupted from the place where she drew for a few seconds.

Caster in turn did the same, but aimed the fire at her test dummy. Causing a twister of fire to swallow Saber up, but still did not damage to her. “Like that?”

“Yes! That was awesome” Amaterasu suddenly fell down in a fit of laughter.

“Gee I’m glad someone is getting a kick out of this.” Said Saber.

“I-I’m sorry.” She said getting back up.

She cleared her throat and turned to Caster. “Actually we can go through two routes here. I can teach you Waterspout or Fountain, No, They aren’t the same thing.”

“How about both?”

“Ok.” Ammy said after a while.

(A few hours later)

“I think that’ll be it for now.” Said Caster finishing up her last sign.

“Just be careful.” Amaterasu warned.

“Hey this is me we’re talking about, if there anything you should know about me is that I am careful with stuff like this.”

“... Ok.”

“Oh whatever!” Caster said as she teleported back to her own world leaving behind her token, along with Gilgamesh’s token which was an axe made of gold.

“I’m guessin’ you two are gonna go next?” Chibi muttered from the back on the room.

“Pretty much yeah, I have to go get my sister from out of jail. Faust knows she’ll end up harassing some of the ponies in jail with her.” Luna said as she open a portal back to her world. “If you need any help, give us a call and we’ll help.” With that her and Saber walked through the portal.

With a puff of smoke, Amaterasu’s Celestia and Luna teleported into the cave.

“You still have some explaining to do.”

“Ah great.”

“Use the boooook.” Saber said telepathically

“Yes I know!” Ammy yelled.

“The read something on page 51 about how Luna been eating from Celestia’s secret stash of cakes, while she’s been going to the gym.” Caster suggested.

“Doing it.” Chibi spoke, flipping the pages with his nose.

Once he got to page fifty-one, He burst out laughing.

“Ohh Lulu you naughty little princess! Eating Celly’s stash!” He laughed.

“Luna!”

“But- I-”

“No buts! We’re heading back to the gym, This time for you!” Celestia shouted, teleporting away.

“... How’d that work?!”

“Magic that’s how.”

(Servant’s Equestria)

“Well that and interesting adventure we had.” Said Luna crashing on the couch.

“Well at least we can relax now.” Just as Saber was about to sit down, there was a huge explosion that could be heard from outside.

“HOLY CRAP!” Yelled Caster. “I didn’t think I could make Gilgamesh explode!?”

“CASTER I'M GONNA FUCKING RIP YOUR HEAD OFF!!!”

“OH GOD NOT THE SWORDS!!!”

“.....One, two, three not it!”

“No-. Son of bitch.” Luna said as she pulled herself up from the couch. “Fine but you’re gonna get Celestia from out of jail this time.”
“Fair enough, try not to kill them this time like you almost did with Celestia and Caster.”

“I make no promises, but I’ll try not to.” She said as she grabbed a metal bat, and teleported off to the fight Caster and Gilgamesh was having.
