                                                                                    (White's point of view)

"Listen up!" I shouted to the Guardians in front of me. "This is not a drill! Our Gem has been stolen!" Mutters. "There is an army coming to attack from the east at night! I need scouts to look ahead!" Two volunteered. "This is all we need! The rest will split up! Half with me and half here! There will be corrupt Arogogs and heavies! Also a new enemy we have never seen, a Crimsonite! These things are like the corrupt, only two times as strong! To top it all off, it's a Maludralian Bear!" Freak out started.

"WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE!"

"WE'RE FUCKED!"

"I'M TOO YOUNG TO DIE, MAN!"

"SHUT UP!" I yelled. "I have a plan! The half that go with me are gonna plan an ambush! The other half stays here! When I say 'Fall back' we come back here! This is the only way we will have a chance against the heavies, Arogogs, and that Maludralian Bear!" They all thought about it.

"I'm down."

"Yeah, sounds good."

"And remember!" I said. "We are not only Guardians, but Kyratians! We breath death every day! We laugh and spit in the face of death! WHO'S WITH ME?!" They all cheered. "All right! My scouts, go! Stick to the trees!" The two ran off. The rest of you, get training! It's high noon, we shouldn't have to move till sun down!" That's just what we did. As they trained I went around telling them what half they would be in. Then I got to training. Soon, the scouts came back. "Well?"

"There is an area that would be perfect for the ambush. We just have to get them to it."

"Okay," I said. "We move at sun down, you two are with me along with the other half." The nodded. When it was sun down, we began to move out.

                                                                                   (Rarity's point of view)

We arrived at the safe area at sundown. Once we got all settled, I pulled that gem White gave me out. I hopped it would work. I closed my hands around it.

"Please let this work..." I closed my eyes. "White Tone." It must have worked, because I wasn't climbing a tree when I did this. He got to the top and waited for...something on a branch.

"Ey, White," He looked over to the voice. "You sure this is gonna work?"

"Yeah," White said. "I'm sure. If it doesn't, then we will to the fall back thing and use that." I had no idea what they were talking about. "Shhh! Hear that?" He whispered. It was marching. "Positions!" He whisper-yelled. He took his blade out. The rest did as well. He go to the edge of the branch and looked down. There they were, the army. White looked at the other Guardians. He did some hand signal to the back of the group. The back of the group came by.

"NOW!" He yelled. The army looked around as White and the other Guardians jumped from their trees, yelling. White landed on one of them with his blade in his neck, how I wanted to puke at that sight. He then immediately pulled it out and shoved it through the next on so it went out his back. He reached down to the stallion's leg and pulled a knife out and threw it at another one. It went into his skull and he fell to the ground. White took his blade out just in time to block an attack. He had a sword and White had a knife. White kicked him in the knee and he stumbled back. White then slashed and took his throat. Blood sprayed onto him before the stallion could hold his neck and fall to the floor. That was when I could feel myself puke. White then turned his blade so the blade part was facing down and he jabbed back. He let go of the blade and reached behind him and threw the stallion over him and to the ground, White's blade in his stomach. He grabbed it and ripped it out to the right side, cutting the stallions side open. I felt another gushing river of vomit pour from my mouth as his insides became outsides. He looked around. They were all dead.

"WE DID IT!" One of the Guardians yelled.

"NO!" White yelled. "This isn't right...somethings up." A loud thumping could be heard. "This was a scouting party...the real threat is up there...we just gave ourselves away."

"W-What do we do?" One asked.

"How many did we lose?" White asked.

"None sir, one was wounded, but it's just a small slash on his chest he's fine."

"Good, we need all of us if we want to even stand a chance." They all set up a wall of men and waited. Then they came. A huge army. "This is it! Hold your ground!" They all stopped. The front line took a knee. "Shit...archers." They took bows out.

"No problem White! You have taken a much bigger line alone before. Just do that again." White's vision shook up and down, showing he was nodding.

"All right," White said. The archers looked far ahead of the other stallions. White held his blade. The other Guardians got out of the way. They drew their arrows back. Only White stood there. He then ran at them. They let their arrows fly. Every thing seemed in slow motion as he ran. He got to his knees and laid back as an arrow went over him. They kept the arrows coming, each at their own, fast pace. He then jumped over one and spun on his side in air. He landed on his feet only to do a spin to avoid another. I watched in awe as an arrow came at him and he swatted it away with his blade. He was closing in on them.

"Bull shit! How is he doing this?!" One yelled. They kept the arrows coming. He slid on his knees and jumped up. They all stopped and looked at him as he raised his blade.  He landed on one and shoved his blade into his. He pulled it out and shoved it into the one on the left of him, when he pulled it out and slashed to the guy on the right and took his throat. He jabbed in into the guy in front of him and jumped and did a flip over him. He took the stallions knife and threw it into the guy in front of him, the ladt guy on the right. He turned to the stallion he just stabbed, he was looking down at the blade in amazement. He took hold of him and used his bow to take the stallions on the left out. He then took his blade out.

"FOR KYRAT!!!!" He yelled and the Guardians yelled at they ran to White. They all charged the army. The army shook there disbelief off and readied themselves. They clashed together. White broke through their defenses and started to expertly stab, slash, and kill them. My head spun with all the kayos. Blood was everywhere. On his blade on the Guardians. White must have been soaked in it. White shoved the side of his blade into a stallions stomach and ripped to the side, spilling his insides. White looked ahead. "NOW! FALL BACK!" They turned and ran off as the Aro...I still don't know how to say that. The spiders, heavies, and that bear started to approach. "How many Guardians have we lost?!" White shouted as he ran.

"None I know of!" One shouted. They ran to the village.

"Get ready!" White shouted. They took to trees. They spiders came in. "NOW!" They jumped down and came on top of the spiders. White shoved his blade into the abdomen of one. He pulled out and slashed of the leg of one. I almost fainted. They were huge! White was crouched down and it was taller then him. He rolled underneath it and jabbed up and flipped it over and pulled it out. They kept coming.

"We're not gonna make it! There's too many!" I heard Bright yell.

"Then we die! We're Kyratians! We fear nothing!" White yelled. "Keep fighting!" A stallion slashed at White. I let out a yelp in pain as he slashed his left arm. White jabbed the blade in his neck. He continued to fight. He received another slash to the chest, again he killed him and continued to fight. I dropped the gem.

I didn't know what to do. He could die. I looked at the other Guardians. They were looking at the other villagers. I then looked down. I had puke all over my lap and shirt. I wiped my mouth and got up. I took another look at the Guardians. They were talking and laughing. I reached behind my back and pulled my blade out and looked at it. It's what they used to fight. They didn't use swords. They must have been brave. They didn't fear death. They faced it every day. I had no training with a blade, but I have watched some of the Guardians train. I put it back behind my back, and ran as fast as I could into the woods; to the village. I didn't stop, I felt like my chest was about to burst as I got to what I assumed to be half way. Then I collapsed, exhausted. I was panting heavily. Soon as I took a breather, I continued to run. Soon I heard the clashing of metal and yelling and screaming. I stopped and looked at what laid before me. Bodies, dead bodies. All of Nightmare's soldiers. I saw White, He was covered, head to toe in blood. I stabbed one in the chest and took his hand, sword sill in it, and grabbed one but the back on the head and slammed his head into the blade. I watched as the sword went through his head. White took his blade out and slammed in down on the neck of the other, his body fell and he head was still on the sword. Blood, sprayed everywhere. He kept fighting. I then felt something fall onto my shoulder. I looked and saw a thick, goopy liquid. More fell. I slowly looked up and saw one of those spider things. It was on its back four legs. It let out a screech and I a scream. I came down on me. I hit the ground hard and I tried to hold it back with my feet. Its jaws with fangs were rubbing against each other eagerly, that goopy liquid falling and splattering all over me. I tried to reach to my back to get my blade, meanwhile its mouth was getting closer and closer to me. The thing was strong! I grabbed my blade and pulled it out. I took it in both hands and thrust up. I felt the blade pierce its head region. I pulled out and thrust again. A yellow liquid fell onto my hands. It let out a screech and it fell on me. I quickly pushed it off. I backed away quickly. All I could do was look at it. "I-I killed it..." I let out an astonished laugh. "I killed it!" I looked over to the fight. White was on the ground, a heavy on him. White was holding the heavy's knife back while he was pushing down to try and kill White. I slowly made my way to him, behind the heavy. I could hear them grunting and yelling. The heavy was gonna win. I ran up behind him, raised my blade, and brought it down on the back of its neck.

                                                                                       (White's point of view)

I was showered in blood. I looked at the heavy's neck and saw the tip of a blade. I looked up and the heavy as he choked on his own blood. The blade was removed and I pushed the heavy off me. Who ever saved me I owed my li-...Rarity...Rarity was in front of me. She was covered in Arogog blood and saliva and she had a blade in her hand, the heavy's blood along with some Arogog blood as well coated it. She was panting heavily. She looked at her blade, then the heavy. All I could do was look at her. My mouth open in awe and my eyes wide. "Y...you just...and...you..." I was trying to spit out a sentence. She looked at me. "You just took down a heavy...without training..."

"I...I guess I did..." She said. I gave an astonished laugh.

"You took down heavy!" I got up. "Way to go Rarity! I c-" My praise to her was interrupted by a loud roar. I turned my head to look and my eyes widened. A Maludralian Bear. A big, red one. It's eyes were a bright blood red. I could see them from where I was. I was way taller then me. The thing was huge. I looked at Rarity. "Well Ms. Heavy Killer, ready for a real fight?" I readied my blade.

"Uhhh...I...uhh..." She was stuck.

"Good, let's go." I turn and ran towards it. All the soldiers were gone, they had retreated, just this big bastard was left. Me and some Guardians were in front of it. Bright looked at me.

"You seem happy." She said.

"You won't believe me so look behind you." She did.

"No fucking way..." I laughed a little.

"She just took down a heavy along with an Arogog." Soon, Rarity joined us. "Nice of you to join the party."

"I'd hardly call this a party. A death sentence more like it." Rarity said. I chuckled.

"It's a Kyratian party." I said.

"Yep." Bright agreed. I readied my blade. Bright and the other Guardians did the same.

"Rarity," I said. "If you aren't gonna fight, leave." She raided her blade.

"I'm staying right here..." She said. I looked at the huge thing.

"Let's take this thing down." I said. I looked to Rarity. She readied her blade. We all did the same. It roared again. I charged. I slid underneath it. I jabbed up, but my blade didn't do anything. Bright tried to slash at its neck, but she missed. Rarity went for the legs, nothing. I ran up a tree and did a back flip onto its head. I ran to its head and jabbed into its eye. It sank in and I pulled it out and jumped off. I turned to looked at. Its eye healed and it looked at me with pure hate. "...I'm sorry..." It whacked me with its paw and I was sent flying. I hit a tree and then the ground. I let out a yelp of pain. I got up and saw it charge me. "Fuck..." I rammed into me and I hit the tree again. It then started to bit at me. I grabbed its head and held it back as best I could, with a dislocated arm. "A LITTLE HELP?!" They ran to me. I felt it bit into my left shoulder and I let out a pain-filled scream. I jabbed into its eyes again and it backed off. I looked at my arm. Both my wrist and arm were dislocated. I popped my arm back in and then my wrist. I stood back up. Its eye healed. Before it did I saw something. "The eye. Two of us needs to jab into it and get a big hole and the other needs to jab into that hole." I looked at my shoulder.

"Are you okay?!" Rarity asked.

"Yeah, I'm fine." I said. "Let's just kill this fuck..." I readied my blade.  Bright and Rarity did the same. Bright charged this time. Then me. Then Rarity. Me and Bright went to the sides and ran up the trees and flipped into it. We jabbed into the same eye and got a big hole. "NOW RARITY!" She ran up and jumped and jabbed into the hole, into its brain. It fell to the ground. Me and Bright got off it. "YEAH! WOOOO!" Me and Bright bumped chests. "FUCKING A WE DID IT!"

"FUCK YEAH!" Bright yelled. I hugged Rarity and laughed.

"You did it!" I put both hands on her shoulder.

"I...I did..." She said. He face was red. It wasn't blood, but blush. I took a step back. Something caught my eye. It was a small glow on her left fore arm. I smiled. "What?" I chuckled.

"Check your left arm recently?"

   (Rarity's point of view)

I looked down at my left arm. Looking at it I saw nothing. I turned it, palm up. My eyes went wide as I saw it. A shark. There was a shark on my arm. White laughed. "Let me see that shit!" He looked. "A bull shark, nice!" He looked at me. "How does it feel to be a Guardian?" I looked at him.

"No, no, no, no, no. I'm not a Guardian." I said.

"The tatau says otherwise. Only Guardians can get them. You have to have Guardian blood in you."

"Or be really skilled." Bright added.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah," White said. "But she is a Guardian, I can feel it!"

"What if you are wrong?" Bright said.

"Then we will make her one. She has a bull shark, you can't deny that. I'm not about to turn around a bull shark." He smiled. I looked at it.

"Whoa..."

"WHITE!" Bold came running it. "DUDE!"

"What?" White said.

"20 wounded. Zero dead." He laughed.

"Hell yeah!" He said.

"Oh, 21 now. I just saw you...holy shit." White looked at himself.

"Whoa, yeah." He looked at me. "Ima get patched up real quick." He headed away with Bold. Guardians everywhere were cleaning the mess. Bright patted me on the shoulder.

"Good job. Maybe I was completely wrong about you." She smiled. Soon White came back. His shoulder was wrapped up along with his arm. His chest was patched up as well. He was holding two glasses and balancing a third on his head. He gave one to Bright and the other to me. He then took the one off his head. He held his glass out.

"To Rarity, may she continue being as badass as she was during the fight." We clanked glasses. I looked at mine, a yellow liquid.

"Uhh what is this?" I asked. White and Bright smiled.

"Just drink." White said, taking a sip from his. "It's really good." Bright did the same. I looked and took a sip. It was...a little strange, but it was good. I was tangy then hot then sweet. Both White and Bright chuckled.

"What's so funny?" I asked.

"Do you really want to know what that is?" White asked. I nodded. White smirked. "That, is pure Arogog blood." I dropped the glass and walked to some bushes, White and Bright losing it behind me. I then made myself puke and I walked back. The two were sipping on their drinks. "Come on, it's good!"

"Until you find out what it is..." I shuttered. "I hate spiders..." After a while of partying, every Guardian began to head to their places. White headed home and I followed.

"I'm proud of you Rarity," He said. "No pony can just do what you did." I felt myself blush.

"Thanks...but that whole spider thing has...shaken me...it was nasty and yucky. I remember when Sweetie got scared of them..." I chuckled. "She'd get scared and run to me...I'd cuddle her and tell her it's okay...she doesn't do that anymore...well as much." White opened the door.

"This Sweetie, who is she?" He asked.

"My sister." I responded. "I miss doing that...cuddling her..." I looked down. "I miss her, my friends, everypony."

"I'm sorry..." I felt him hug me. I hugged back. I looked up to him. He was a head taller then me, as I had said. "You should get some sleep, you had a long day." I nodded.

"Umm...White?"

"Yes?"

"This...might seem a bit odd, but would you...sleep with me? Like next to me, in the same bed. I'm probably going to have nightmares now and I want somepony to be there if I do." I blushed heavily, I could feel it. He smiled a little.

"Sure." I smiled. We walked to his room. He took his shirt off, it was all torn up anyway. He turned to face me and I felt myself blush again. He was so strong...I shook my...Uhh...'fantasies' off and looked him in the eye.

"I uhh...hope you don't mind, but I uhh...sleep without my first layer of clothing on..." He chuckled.

"That's alright." He laid on the bed and put his hands behind his head. I took my first layer off and slipped into bed. He pulled the covers over us and laid back. "Night Rarity."

"Night White." I smiled and laid down and closed my eyes, and fell asleep.
