Chris slowly paces the hall, unnerved by what happened. He rubs his hair and sighs as he thinks long and hard about what happened and what he needs to plan for in the near future.

"Christ almighty this is weird." He says to himself as he runs his hands through his hair to slick it back, he goes to take a seat next to the medical room. He pulls out his phone, not like as if it could work since it has no signal wait a second, he looks at his phone closely and sees it has full bars.

"Holy shit full bars in Equestria? Damn that's legit." He says surprised as he goes through his phone to occupy himself until the princess is available for visits. Chris made sure to have good post rotations so that the Celestia is guarded 24/7.
At this moment Chris didn't want to be disturbed but one uptight upper class pony was going to find out what happens when they cross the line.

"Excuse me human but I demand to see the Princess on important ma-!" He was suddenly cut off as Chris grabs the ponys head, leaps and lands on his back as the stallion faceplanted on the ground. The stallion was knocked out cold as Chris quickly gets up and plays a clip from his favorite show

"WHAT?!?! RKO FROM OUTTA NOWHERE! UNBELIEVABLE!" The phone speaker blares out as Chris looks to the ceiling, his body moving in a sideways fashion as he throws his arms down and looks at the pony with a predatory look in his eyes as a song plays through his phone, "I hear voices in my head they council me, they understand, they talk to me."

Chris was taking deep breathes as he summons two guards to take the pony to the medical room.

"Fucking rich pricks." Chris growls as he rubs his head and throws his hands down. He huffs and slams his hands down on the wall, making loud smack sounds. This is complete utter frustration, he needed to get his mind off the matter and soon.

"Should probably get to checking on the new armor for the royal equestrian army." Chris says to himself as he quickly walks down the long hallways in a power walk pace. He turns the corner and runs into his mare, Princess Luna, and she didn't look to happy.

"My Princess? Are you ok? I didn't mean to run into you." He apologizes as Luna sighs and pulls her love into a tight hug with one hoof around his neck, he gets down to her level and returns the hug. Princess Luna sniffles as if she was about to cry, "Chris, i'm worried for my sister. I'm scared."

Chris looks at Luna and kisses her gently, "She will be fine, the physicians are doing their job in taking care of her."

Luna looks to the side, afraid and nervous, "I... I don't know how to run the kingdom while my sister is away. I usually ruled the night but never both."

The human smiles as he strokes the night princess mane, "That's why i'm here, to serve on your behalf."

She nuzzles and smiles as he caresses her, "And we are very glad for your loyalty."

Chris leans in to kiss his love as she moves forward to accept his kiss, they locked lips for a few minutes before Chris pulls away, "If you'll excuse me Your Majesty I have to check on our military. This new threat cannot be underestimated."

She nods as she flutters her wings gently, "Yes we can see the wisdom in your words, go see to it that our stallions are ready."

He bows low as he then turns and walks down the hallway to the lower levels of the castle.

-

"Her Majestys sire in the area! Atten-Hut!" The Captain of the Security Ponies announces as all ponies stop what they are doing and form up in attention as Chris walks down the steps to the guards quarters.

"At ease, someone get me the armorers, Captain walk with me, everypony else continue what you were doing before but be ready to fight at a moments notice." Chris says as the ponies acknowledge the order and continue their duties.

"Is there something the matter sir?" The Captain, Rigid Hoof, asks as they walk to the armory.

"Need to check on that armor and see how it is progressing." He answers as they open the door.

"Hey! Where are you Iron Hammer you sack of shit!?!" Chris jokes as a hammer misses his head as a stocky looking grey unicorn trots from the other room,

"Right here two legged ape." The unicorn replies back with a smile as Chris walks over and grabs the unicorns stretched hoof as they embrace in a friendly hug.

"Hey listen I need to know the status of that new armor, we need to field test it soon."

Iron Hammer uses his magic to pull out two of the new helmets, both were plain white with black t-visors with a sharp pointed frown and a fin at the top.

"Thats excellent, now we need Star Swirl to enchant these helmets before they are battlefield tested." Chris says as Iron Hammer bows and trots off to grab the rest.

"SIR! SIR!!!" Chris' head quickly turns to see a Security Pony nearly tumble down the steps.

"The hell is going on?" He asks as the pony tries to catch his breath.

"Outside... strangers... creatures." The pony pants as he tries to be presentable.

Chris looks to the Captain as they both bound up the steps quickly, reaching the outside castle grounds as he sprints to the gates, the Security Ponies point to where the event was taking place. He runs over the bridge and into the downtown area of Canterlot as a large crowd of ponies gather.

"Make way! Her Majesties advisor approaches!" The Captain announces as Chris moves through the crowd as they all part and bow.

What he saw made him stop hard, the very same creatures he saw at the destroyed village was there. He felt the rage boil inside him as the black insect winged creatures cock their heads as they study him.

"Are you the biped ape that killed our scouting party?" The lead changeling asked, seeing that it was dressed in a form of robes that could resemble its rank as an envoy, Chris glares at the lead ambassador.

"Whats it look like to you?" he replies with contempt as the changelings growl.

"We came here on behalf of our Queen... Queen Monobia." The lead changeling announces, "She offers peace for an exchange for tribute. If you decline, we will arrive in force and devour every living thing. Stallion, mare, fillies, all of them. First she wants the biped ape, you will come with us."

"How about fuck you." Chris responds as the changeling bares its fangs, "Kill him!"

Before the changelings could attack, the Security ponies that blended in as regular townsfolk, intercepted them and cut them down, with swords made from pure magic, taught by Star Swirl, introduced by yours truly, they never got a chance. Chris watches as the escort changeling was killed as the lead bug pointed a hoof at him.

"You will pay for this you you hairless biped ape!" Chris grabs the hoof and with a quick snap, dislocated the ankle portion as the changeling yelped.

Chris was shivering, furious as he yells and smacks the changeling hard across the face, making it turn 180 degrees, shocked as it looks at Chris.

"RAAAAH!!" Chris smacks the changeling again, and again and again.

The changeling pants as it touched the corner of its mouth to see green blood leaking, "You think we will give in to your demands? You're out of your damn mind."

The ponies surrounding them all muttered and nodded in agreement with what Chris had to say.

"These ponies here will not be deceived. You tell your Queen she won't get shit." Chris says as he turns to walk away, "Get this piece of shit out of Princess Celestias city."

The ponies bowed and yelled out ," Yes Sir!" as they approached but the changeling laughed as the ponies all talked to each other in surprise.

"I am impressed, Christian Harknett. I thought you would be weaker than this. Now that you weakened me... go ahead... kill me." The changeling suggested as it opened itself for attack.

Chris looks to the changeling and takes a deep breath, "I already had enough for today, the ponies here will take your life."

The ponies all mutter together as the changeling grins, "The ponies can't lay a hoof on me! Do you think that my Queen will let them live if they kill me? Every single one of them will be eaten!"

The bugs blue eyes looks to the left and right, "Listen up ponies! Surrender this human to me, and you will all be spared and live a life of prosper-"
with the last words Chris yells in anger as he turns around and runs to the changeling to leap and brings his right knee to its jaw.

The ponies gasp in horror as they saw the Princess advisor completely lose control, the other unfortunate witness to such anger was Princess Luna herself and her maid, who was watching the events unfold. Chris runs over and kicks the changeling in the face, the Captains jaw drops as everypony pointed and watches as Chris picks up the changeling and punches it in the face and its stomach over and over. He punches again as the bug fell on its hooves, enraged Chris runs over and kicks its legs out from under as it flips onto its back.

Rolling over the changeling coughs and looks up, bloodied and bruised, " I... I don't deserve to die like this!" Chris looks at the pathetic creature and pants, "What?? You miserable bastard.."

He picks up the changeling and shakes it, "Get up! Then what do you deserve???" He lands a few punches, "Huh?! Huh?!"

He head butts the changeling and deals more blows as the Security ponies look on with concern as they couldn't look away. The human punches the bug in the gut twice before landing an uppercut that made it spin onto a nearby wagon.

Spitting up blood and hoof over a bruised body the changeling tried to get up, "I tried to offer peace, for my Queen and to prevent blood shed. I refuse to take the blame for what happened in that village."

Chris yells out in rage, "RRRRAAAAAAHHH!!!" He jumps and kicks the changeling back down as he grabs it by the horns, "Take a good look at the ponies! Look at the grieving families of the ones your wretched scouts has killed! What peace have you offered us?!?"

The ponies all yell in anger and try to hit the changeling as Chris pulls it to the side and throws punches center mass and finally throws it to the ground. It rolled and tumbled as it got on threes with one hoof bent, spitting up blood and somewhat disoriented.

It looks up to Chris as the human balled his hands into fists, "What?!? Does it hurt?! ARE YOU IN PAIN!?!?! RRRRAAAAHHH!!!" Chris runs and does a jump side kick, knocking the changeling back a good several feet before landing on its back, as it moves a sickening crunch is heard as it moves slightly. A hoof on its chest it looks at Chris and points at him, "I will curse you..." it mutters as it struggles to speak and breathe, its hoof shaking as it utters its final words, "I will curse you from Tartarus...." its hoof fell limp as Chris watches it let out its final breath.

"Die you bastard! Die!" The ponies yell out as they all beat the dead body with their hooves, yelling curses and letting out their anger as Princess Luna watches on, her hoof to her muzzle in shock, never knowing her love would ever be capable of such anger and power.

Chris watches the ponies unleash their anger, he then turns away and takes a deep breath as he looks up sighs, thinking about what he had done he closes his eyes and lets out a tear as he felt the emotion of the grieving relatives of the destroyed village pour out onto the unfortunate envoy who dare show its face into Canterlot.
