All I can see is nothing but the darkness of the void. Where the hell am I?

I remember the merchant said something about sending me and my friends to some place called Equestria.

All of the sudden, I started screaming in pain as if my head was about to explode. Soon I started seeing images of humans in rag clothing. Even chained and kept in cells. Man, woman and children sold in markets by colorful anthropomorphic equines. The pain worsens as more images appeared, showing families torn apart as mothers cried for their child been taken away from them while fathers were brutally beaten or killed.

Another image shows a group of children cleaning what looks like barracks. One of them accidentally drops a pile of golden helmets. One of the guards nearby started beating the child over some helmets!

My blood started to boil in anger as one the images shows the equines in golden armor executing a human for protecting a filly from wolves made of wood.

He just saved that child! And this is how they repay him!?

My rage was nothing but a raging inferno made from the pits of hell itself. From this day onwards, this foul Xenos will know nothing but fear and will die for their crimes against humanity.

Soon I was blinded by a bright light before me and was thrust into a new world.


I shook my head and see the sun shining above and stood up as bits of dirt and grass falls off my armor. I look around and see six more Ultramarines lying on the ground groaning.

“My head feels like it went through a rollercoaster.” A familiar a Scottish voice spoke.

I turn around and see a familiar Devastator Marine struggle to stand up but failed to do so. I walk towards him and picked him up.

“You alright Jorge?” I asked in concern.

“Yup. Wait how the fuck you know my name?” Jorge asked suspiciously.

“It’s me Leon. Remember?”

“Find that hard to believe.” Jorg said.

I immediately slap him on the back of his head. “Don’t tell me you forgot the time we met each other in an orphanage.”

“Wait! Is that really you Leon?” Jorge asked again.

“Yes! Are you drunk?” I said in an annoyed tone.

“Sorry. Kind of thought your some other dude in an Ultramarine Honour Guard. Oh, nice Force Staff by the way.” Jorge commented.

“Force Staff? I don’t remember getting one.” I said and look to my reflection and see myself holding a Force Staff and a pair of scabbard attach to my sides.

“Can somebody help me out here! I can’t get up!” A voice asked in an impatient tone.

Jorge and I turn around and see Greg in his Terminator armor as he struggles to stand up due to the armor’s weight.

“Hang on man.” Jorge makes his way towards Greg and picks him up then wipes bits of dirt stuck on Greg’s armor and Assault Cannon.

“Thanks, Jorge.” Greg said.

“No problem.” Jorge replied.

“We better wake the others up now.” I said.

We make our way to Josh who is dressed as a Tactical Space Marine with a pair of sunglasses.

“Yo Josh, rise and shine buddy.” Greg said and slaps Josh helmet a couple of times.

“I’m up now. No need to slap me.” Josh said and readjust his helmet. “Is it me or are we real Space Marines now?”

“Yes Josh, we’re real Space Marines now.” I said.

“Woot!”

“C’mon people, we still got to wake the rest up.” I said and make my way Ben who is an Apothecary.

The rest soon wakes Kevin who is a Techmarine and John who is an Assault Marine. For me, trying to wake Ben is a pain in the ass. Is like trying wake a hibernating bear up.

“Need a little help here.”

“I got it.” Greg said and approaches Ben sleeping form. “You Ben, I got myself a Karambit that has a Blue Steel skin.”

In an instant, Ben wakes up and punches Greg in the face. He gets up and grabs Greg helmet and screamed.

“YOU GOT ANOTHER FUCKING KNIFE!!!! ARE YOU SHITTING ME, ANOTHER KARAMBIT WITH A BLUE STEEL SKIN! FUCK YOU!!!! THIS IS THE 7TH KNIFE YOU GOT WHILE I ONLY HAVE 3 FUCKING KNIFES!!!!!” Ben screamed in rage and kicks a boulder sending it about five clicks away.

“Actually I lied about the Karambit.” Greg said.

“Wait, WHAT!?” Ben yelled.

“I lied about the Karambit just to wake you up.” Greg admitted.

Ben lets go of Greg and lets out a sigh of relief.

“Anyway, any idea where the hell are we now?" Ben asked.

"Not sure. But any of you guys saw images in your head with a real bad headache?" I asked.

"You mean images that shows ponies with horns and wings and enslaving humans?" Kevin said with a hint of anger.

"Yes."

"Any ideas?" John asked.

"Weapons check." I said.

"I got a Chainsword and a Bolt pistol." Ben said.

"Well, I only have a Heavy Bolter." Jorge said.

"For me, I got a Power Axe, a Chainsword that is attached to my side, a Bolt pistol and a shield." John said in a happy tone.

"I have an Assault Cannon and a Power fist."

"I only have a Thunder Hammer. But I'm going to modify it anyway. Oh and five mechanical arms."

"Got a Bolter and a couple of Krak and Frags." Josh said.

"I got a Force Staff and two Power Swords." I said.

"Force Staff? Isn't that for Psykers?" Johnny asked.

"Who knows, maybe I'm a Psyker." I replied.

"We'll find out soon enough." Ben said.

"Hate be a bringer of bad news, what are we going to do for ammo?" Jorge asked?

"Shit...he does have a point." Greg stated.

"Wish we had a backpack that stores weapons and ammo." Kevin said.

"Like that's going to happen." I thought.

"DUCK AND COVER!" Ben warned and seeks cover behind a boulder.

I look up and see something falling and immediately made a mad dash and hid behind a boulder.

BOOM!

An explosion echoed through the air scaring any nearby wildlife away. I peek my head out and see a smoking crater with some sort of backpack that nearly looks like a dispenser from tf2 but bigger. It had a couple of slots containing ammunition, medical equipment and the bottom slot had several jars containing organs which I assumed are Gene Seeds.

“I wonder what’s inside.” Kevin said and lets his curiosity get the better of him and opens it. He takes out four Power Swords, three Thunder Hammers, two Power Axe, three Chainsword, two pairs Lightning claws, a Power Fist, a Terminator Storm Shield, two combat shield, two Storm Bolters, three bolters and bolt pistol, two Lascannon, a Heavy Bolter, two Plasma Pistol and Plasma Guns, A Multi-Melta, A Heavy Flamer, two Flamers, a Lasgun that has a scope and a bayonet, a Assault Cannon, two Missile Launcher, a Plasma Cannon , a couple of Servo Skulls and a whole bunch of Frags and Krak Grenades.

“How can a backpack fit this many weapons?” John asked with a surprised tone.

“Possibly a pocket Dimension.” Greg concluded.

“I’ll have to go with Greg on what he said. That’s the only logical explanation.” Kevin said.

“I’m telling you, man, this is legitimately overkill. I mean look at the amount of weapons we have here. It looks like we have enough firepower to destroy any kind of city maybe an army too.” Jorge said and gestures to the pile of weapons next to the backpack.

“But still, I wonder who send this to us?” John questioned.

“There’s a note at the side of the backpack.” Josh said and reads the note.

Dear Space Marines/ Adeptus Astartes

I hope you have received this package that I sent to help you and your battle brothers crusade in liberating the humans race here from slavery. I’m very sure you saw those images upon your arrival. Anyway the backpack you have is both for storing ammo, equipment, misc and weapons and supplying you medical attention, repairs your armor by nanobots, ammo and extra sets of organs. If you're looking for the nearest village, just head west but it's a one-hour walk. I wish you all good luck in your crusade.

“Any idea who send it or wrote the letter?” I asked.

“Nope, Doesn't says the sender's name at all.” Josh said.

“Alright. Kevin, you're going to carry it since you're the Techmarine.” I said.

“Got it.” Kevin later packs the rest of the weapons into the backpack and attaches it to his Armor back.

“Let’s go.”

(1 hour later…)

The ruins of what was once a proud kingdom. The sky above the ruins was dark grey giving the ruins a depressing feeling. In a distance, I could see a massive castle resting at the edge of a mountain, the streets filled with ashes, snow and skeletons.

"Talk about a depressing sight eh." Jorge commented.

"Tell me about it." Kevin replied.

"Let's go." I said and jog towards the ruins ahead.

(5 minutes later...)

The entire trek through the empty street was unnerving due to the eerie silence.

"This is starting to remind me of Metro 2033. Well, except they're no mutated animals." Greg said.

We continue our trek through the ruins and passing by occasional skeleton piles. But something caught Greg's attention.

"Any of you guys heard that?" Greg asked.

"No."

"I heard a child's laughter." Greg said.

"Greg, if you're trying to make us laugh or scared. You're dead." Ben said.

"Dude, I seriously heard a girl laughing." Greg retorted. "Listen."

The rest of us quietly listen for any sound disturbance.

"....hehe..hehe....." A soft laughter echoed.

"Okay, I heard a girl's laughter alright." Josh said.

"Any idea where did that laughter come from?" Ben asked

"It came from that house next to us." Jorge answered and gesture a fairly large house.

"Kevin, Jorge, John and Josh will stay outside." I ordered. " Greg, Ben and I will check it out."

"Roger that." Kevin replied, "Be careful in there."

Greg later busts the half rotten doors open while Ben and I enter the house first. I look at the interior of the house as it reminded me of the houses at Pompeii.

"Hellooo.....housekeeping." Ben joked. He turns his searchlight on and reveals eroded and cracked walls, holes, broken pillars, broken vases and burnt decomposed wood.

"I don't see anything."Said Ben.

"Maybe you're not looking properly at all." Greg said. He shines his searchlight at the upper end of the hallway but sees a shadow dash across the light.

Greg decided to investigate the shadow and walks through the empty hallway.

Greg walks to his left and finds himself in a garden. He looks around the garden and notice a teddy bear sitting on a display stand. Greg looks at the teddy bear curiously. Later he hears the same laughter again causing Greg to turn around and point his Assault Cannon.

"Who's there!?"

Greg waited for a response for a minute. Assuming no one was here, he turns around to find a pale white girl wearing a white dress. She was cradling the same teddy bear from before. Her eyes were blood red, her hair was white as snow.

"What are you doing here little girl?" Greg asked in concern. .

"Are you a knight?" The girl asks in a soft voice.

"A what?" He asked.

"A knight.”

“Um...yeah.” Jorge lied.

Without warning, the mysterious girl hugs Greg left leg catching him by surprise.

“Don’t let the bad monsters hurt me.” Said the girl.

Greg’s didn’t know how to respond to the girl’s response, but decided to rub the girl's head gently.

“I won’t let anyone hurt you.” Said Greg.

“You promise?” She asked.

“I promise.” Greg answered and pats her head.

Greg turns around and sees Me and Ben staring at him.

“What?”

“Um….who are you talking to Greg?” Ben asked.

“Talking to this little girl here.” He answered.

“What little girl?” Ben asked in a confused tone. “There’s no one here but us.”

“What do you mean? There’s a girl standing right next to me.” Greg said.

“I seriously don’t see any-”

“He’s right Ben. I see a little girl standing next to Greg.” I interrupted. “That confirms I have Psykers powers and ghost do exist.”

“You know what, fuck it!”

Greg simply facepalm at Ben’s complaints.

“Idiot.” Greg muttered and notice a sad look on the girl’s face. “Hey what’s wrong?”

“This place use to be my home before the monsters invaded.” She answered.

“This use to be your home?” Greg asked and received a nod from her.

“What happened here?” I asked.

“I can’t really remember.” The girl answered. “All I remember was me playing at the field until it was raining fire and a white explosion.”

“What about your name?” I asked again

“I can’t remember my name too.” She answered sadly.

“How about Sarah?” Greg suggested.

“Sarah….I like it.”

“Glad you like it.”

“Sarah, do you know where we can get more information about this place?” I ask in a soft tone.

“Oh, you go to the castle library.” Sarah answered with a cute smile.

“Can you lead us there Sarah?” I ask again.

“Sure.” She answered and grabs Greg’s power fist. “Let's go Mr B.”

I watch Sarah walk off with Greg holding her hand and smiled. I turn my attention to Ben only to hear him grumbling.

“Lighten up Ben.” I said only to see Ben flipped me the bird.

(Later…)

“So you're saying that you, Greg and Ben found a child who turns out to be a ghost child.” John said with skepticism.

“Yes.”

“Okay then.” Was all John said.

“Wait what!?” I shouted in surprise. “You’re not going to complain about ghost don’t exist?”

“We’re in a new world as Ultrasmurfs and we have a Dispenser that fall from the sky and keeps Astartes weapons also supplies us with ammo and medical supplies.”

“Well….when you put it that way-”

“We just got send to some world by some creepy merchant who bent all logic and physics” Kevin interrupted.

“You're right about that.”

“Now let's go find that library.” Kevin said.

“Yes.”

(30 minutes later…)

Soon we reach the entrance of the castle. Only to find it open and the hallways pitchblack.

“Okay, creepy ghost castle.” Jorge commented.

“At least there’s no dragon living in this castle.” Kevin pointed out.

“Kevin, you fucking idiot.” Ben seethed.

“What?”

Before Ben could reply, a loud growl echoed through the hallway causing us to raise our weapons.

A massive dragon appears from the shadows. It’s scales were black as night, sharp and diamond hard claws which could cut through the mightiest of Titans. It’s eyes were blood red with sickly green pupils and a pair of large horns on the back of it’s head crackling with electrical power and spoke with a deep voice.

“This is a sacred ground to the Draconic Empire! Vacate this area now or feel thy wrath!”

“Look, We’re just here to visit the library. If you don’t let us pass, your body is going to be full of holes by us Ultramarines.” I threatened.

“Ultramarines? I heard that name from before…” The dragon looks at me up close and studies my armor, but what got his attention was the Ultramarines insignia.

“It cannot be..” He muttered, “That mark, the prophecy was true all along.”

“Excuse me, what!?!”

“Come, I must bring you somewhere.” Said the dragon.

“Whoa, hold on. First you wanted to kill us and now you want us to follow you!?” Kevin shouted in confusion.

“Yeah, what he said!” Ben said

“Your questions shall be soon answered. There is something I must show you. Please, this is concerning humanity.” He pleaded.

“Fine. Lead us. But no funny business.” I warn.

Later we followed the elder dragon through the dark empty hallways. During the walk, I secretly admired the picture carvings as they depict the kingdom’s history but one of the carvings shows a feminine figure in a suit of armor, the figure was holding a sword engulf in flames and her right hand raised in the air. It sort of remind me of the God Emperor.

“We’re here.” The dragon announced, snapping me out my thought and look at the direction where the dragon was looking at, only to find a wall.

“Dead end.”

The dragon humorously chuckled and spoke. “Do not let your eyes deceive you.”

He walks up to the wall and pushed it thus opening it and revealing a stairway leading to what looks like the lower levels of the castle.

(After a fuckton of stairs…)

“What kind of idiot thinks it was a good idea to put more than a hundred flight of stairs!?!” Josh complained.

“I have no idea Josh.” I said and notice the room was lit. I turn around to find me and my friends in a room made of pure gold, shelves filled with skulls and helmets. The most notable thing in the room was a massive Golden Throne that has a rotting skeleton, skulls and faded parchments resting on the throne.

“Is that what I think it is?” Greg asked.

“It’s the Golden Throne!!!” John shouted with a excited tone.

“Empress, wake up.”

“ZZZZZZ…*yawn* What is it Neltharion? Can’t you see I’m having my daily nap.” The skeleton spoke in a feminine voice.

“Sorry old friend but there’s something I must show you.” Neltharion said.

“Fine...this better be good.” The skeleton muttered, and turns her attention on us. “Neltharion, am I hallucinating?”

“No you're not hallucinating Empress.” Neltharion assured.

“Good. Now back to business.” She said, and turns her attention on us. “About gob smacking time you guys get here!”

“What do you mean get here!?” I said in confusion. “That fucking merchant send us here like three hours ago!”

“Wait the merchant? Sigh, one of this days sonny, he's going to get his ass kicked by somebody if he keeps this up.” She grumbled. “I was hoping for some real Space Marines, but you guys will just do just fine….at least you're all are not religious zealots.” She muttered under her breath.

“Tell that to the fucking Inquisition.” Told Greg.

“Inquisition?” She asked.

“A organization that is full a religious fanatics who will order Exterminatus on a planet due too small superstition and rumors. When I mean Exterminatus, they just destroy the planet rendering it into a lifeless burning husk.” Greg explained.

“Don’t forget they forced labour and sterilization camps onto the populace.” Ben pointed out.

In an instant, actual steam starts to come out where her ear was before.

“I think I just shat out more than five Warp storms.” She announced.

(Meanwhile in the 40k universe….)

“AAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!”

“AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!”

“AAAAARRRRRRRGGGHHHHHH!!!!!”

“WWWWAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!!!!!”

“Why is there so many Warp storms!?!” A Inquisitor asked.

“I don’t know!!!!” Another one answered before she was fucked by a Slaanesh daemonette.

(Back to our universe...)

“Anyway, back to the subject. This kingdom you see was once a beautiful prospering kingdom called The Imperium of Humanity. Before the Imperium, there were seven human factions warring with each other because of religion and other reason I don’t want to go into detail. Before these factions could destroy themselves, I step into the picture. I knock some fucking sense into their leaders, throw their religion out of the window and lead them into a new age. The Age of Reclamation.” She explained. “At first there were a few speed bumps along the way, for example the Orks.”

“Wait those warmongering greenskins?” Josh asked.

“Yes. At first they were warmongering idiots who couldn’t do anything in life but surprisingly resilient and resourceful for a dumb race. Fortunately I use my OP-PLZ-NERF-POWERS to smack some sense into their heads to do something productive in their lives and guess what, it work. In the end they were the first race to joined the Imperium and named their Nation ‘Great Orktain’.”

“Wait, you're saying that you turn a band of brainless warmongering greenskins into a band of now intelligent-british-gentleman-greenskins?!” I asked in shocked.

“Yes. But they somehow retain their ‘WAAAGGHHH’ attitude.” She answered. “Where was I? Oh yeah. The next race to join the Imperium was the Kirin Empire. First contact went smoothly because they were a open-minded and always talk first before fighting, but when they meet the Orks, they weren’t really friendly with them due to past wars and other batshit history I forgot. So I decided to knock some sense into them with powers again and in the end became friends.”

“That doesn’t make sense. How can you use your powers to make Kirins and Orks to be friends? It doesn’t make sense at all!” Jorge complained.

“That’s because I am the motherfucking Empress.” She replied dryly. “Again back to what I was saying, After that entire fiasco came the Draconic Empire. When we first made contact with them, they tried to rule us saying they’re superior than us.”

“Let me guess, you use your powers and beat the shit out of their leader.” I said dryly.

“Correct. But I didn’t really beat the shit out of the dragon king. I gave that lizard a damn good spanking to teach him some humility.”

“Please don’t remind me of that embarrassing history of my kind.” Neltharion begged.

“My apologies. Back to the story at hand, After the dragons was the Lamia Alliance. When I first found out that Lamias are a only female race which got me curious to how they reproduced. I found out they only reproduce by tricking a male human and make him have a snake-lady orgy. Thankfully my reasonable side stop me from killing them all. So after a few friendly talks with them it all turn out okay.”

“Reminds me of a certain anime.” John muttered.

“So the next race the Imperium encountered was the Harpies. Same like the Lamias but they have a child-like appearance in order to gain flight. Also they can’t just sit down and talk, once they make three steps, they instantly forget their most recent memories which is annoying but in the end I was able to forge an alliance with them. After the Harpies was the Centaurs. Half man half horse. First contact was rough but went smoothly in the end because I beat their leader in honourable combat. There are more allied nation, but I think I told you guys enough.” The Empress.

“I have one more question Empress.” I said.

“Oh and what kind of question you want to ask?” She asked.

“What about Chaos?”

“Darn I almost forgot about that. Well you see when I first met Chaos I thought it was just full of vile creatures that needed to be wiped out from existence but I decided to investigate the warp for more information which I believe you know what the Warp is.”

“Yes we all know about the warp. It’s pretty much the realm where one thoughts, feelings and emotions is, also it is the home of the foul daemons and the four Chaos Gods. Tzeentch the Chaos God of change, Nurgle the Chaos God of Disease, Decay and Destruction, Khorne the Chaos God of blood, war and murder and last of all but not least is Slaanesh the prince of pleasure who was murderfucked into exsitance.” I answered.

“Correct. After my trip to the warp, I found out that the Chaos Gods represent several virtues, thoughts and emotions. The good and the bad and the ugly. For example Tzeentch maybe a cruel and devious trickster, but he is also a force of progress and a beacon of hope to the eyes of others.”

“Change after all, is neither benevolent or malevolent.” Greg pointed out.

“Correct. Without Tzeentch, there would be no malicious schemes, but there would also be no-one clever enough to save people from those schemes. Nothing will ever get done, and we will fall into eternal stasis of static karma. And THAT is what Nurgle represents: Stagnancy. A lack of change. Inevitable eternal cycles of decay and renewal. But he also represent resilience, resolve and solidarity to face those same, unsettling inevitabilities. To put it in simpler terms, his nature incarnate.”

“What about Khorne and Slaanesh? They cause nothing but death and suffering.” Jorge asked.

“Well Khorne may be a force of merciless, mindless slaughter and hatred, but that’s because he represents another natural concept: Survival of the fittest. Strength and skill is all but matters to him. He also represents justice, vengeance and honour, so unlike the others, Khorne will never try to trick you and stab you in the back.”

“In other words, he will just stab you in the face, over and over again, until your face stops resembling a face.” Kevin concluded.

“Correct again. Without him, there would be no honesty and no strength to fight against injustice. And speaking of injustice; Slaanesh may be a horrifying, cruel, torturous fiend that breaks minds and inflicts untold suffering, but he...she...it, also exudes as much joy, freedom, expression and happiness. Without Slaanesh, there would be no happiness, and grief to make those happy times mean anything.”

“Then what happens next?” I asked.

“Well I ended up becoming friends with Tzeentch and Khorne. Nurgle is okay but Slaanesh is someone I would like to avoid. Usually I play Chess, Checkers, Battleship and Monopoly with him sometimes with Khorne but he gets very angry when he loses in Monopoly.” The Empress said nervously.

“Wait, you befriended with two of the four Chaos Gods!” I shouted in surprise.

“Yes, is there a problem?” She asked.

“Yeah. If the REAL Emperor were to find about this, he would be seriously pissed.” I said and shivered.

(40k universe…)

“Achoo….” The skeleton sneezed.

“Oh my goodness, are you alright my lord?” The custodian asked.

“Yes. I feel like somebody just mention or talk about me.”

(Back to our universe again…)

“Well now that we just met you, what now?” I asked.

“Oh yes I forgot to tell you all something. Back to where I was again, After gathering many allies and solving their problems. Everything was going well until the Griffons , Diamond Dogs, Minotaurs, Caribou and the FUCKING EQUESTRIANS!!!!” The Empress eyes burst into flames to the word ‘Equestrians’.”

“Oh boy, she’s pissed.” Neltharion muttered.

“When we first encountered the Equestrians, they treated my people like animals! I went straight to their leaders to talk. Only to find two brats name Celestia and Luna. I wanted to talk to them for the moment but tried to vaporize me with their magic saying that humans are nothing but chaotic creatures that needed to be cleanse for the greater good of harmony and declared war with the Griffons, Diamond Dogs, Minotaurs and the Caribou. So I escape from those dumb bitches and head back to the Imperium to prepare humanity for war.” The Empress said.

“And that’s was the day where the Great-Human War started.” Neltharion said.

“Yes. Also I cut off communications to every allied nations since they went through a lot.” The Empress told. “And those who have interspecies relationships were moved to Great Orktain for safety.”

“So you separated your kingdom from your allies and fought five nations who are bent to enslave humanity or better so, eradicate humanity from the face of the world.” Ben said.

“Not one of my brightest ideas at first. Well during the early and mid days of the war, everything was going well thanks to our superior technology while they have swords, crossbows, spears and lousy armor. “

“Let me guess, everything went downhill during the final days of the war?” I said.

“You got that right. Somehow they invented a new type of weapons and armor that is on par against our tech. Soon many cities fell to the control of the Equestrians, Diamond Dogs, Caribous, Griffons and Minotaurs. The only city that was left standing, was the Imperium capital city called Holy Terra.”

“Before the final battle could take place, my friend Tzeentch told me of seven warriors in a clad of strange armor and armed with the most fearsome weapons known to us or our allies and enemies. And use such tactics, strategies and machines that no foe can best them in battle. They are called Space Marines. And shall bring justice against the enemies of humanity.”

“So wait, Tzeentch just waltz in and told you the future?” Josh asked.

“Yes. Back to the story again. Once the final battle took place in Holy Terra, I personally confront Luna and Celestia and engage them in honourable battle. the battle lasted nearly nineteen hours but was soon coming to its end thanks to my OP-PLZ-NERF-POWERS. But those sneaky alicorns had a trick up their sleeves. They used six magical crystals called the Elements of Harmony on me thus taking away most of my powers away and stab me in the heart and kick my body into some random crevice. After that, was the fall of the Imperium of humanity.”

“Wait, you got stabbed in the heart. Then how the fuck did you survive?” Ben asked.

“That is something I don’t know at all. I think that must be the chaos gods doing.” She concluded.

“Maybe. So what happen after the battle?”

“After the battle and the fall of the Imperium, the Imperium allies caught wind of what happened recently and rush as fast as they can to help. But were too late.” Neltharion said, his voice started to crack. “The dragons was the first to arrive but only to find nothing but ash, dust and death. What was once a proud city was nothing but an empty husk filled with death. The nations that took it hard was Great Orktain, The Draconic Empire, The Changeling Republic and the Kirin Empire. We were about to declare war on those who had destroyed the Imperium but a certain god stopped us from doing so.”

“Tzeentch.” I answered.

“Correct. He told us that an inevitable change was coming and again told us to prepare for it. After he told us about the upcoming future, we found the Empress body within the castle ruins. She was alive but barely. So we used ancient dragon magic to stabilize her while the orks use their resourcefulness and build a throne out of scrap for her body to rest on.” Neltharion explained and gestures to the throne.

“How’s the throne keeping her alive that is?” I asked curiously.

“Oh the throne keeps me alive by pumping Warp energy into my body as it slowly heals my soul and body.” The Empress explained.

“I doubt that since you look like a skeleton.” Ben said dryly.

“That's because my soul have split into several pieces and is scattered across the world in a crystallized form.” She retorted.

“Oh.”

“Then what happen to the surviving humans?” Greg asked and felt a tug. He looks to his right to see Sarah staring at him but notice Neltharion looking at her with a smile.

“I see you found a spirit companion.” Neltharion said with a tinge of happiness in his voice.

“Spirit companion?” Greg said with a confused tone.

“A Spirit Companion, is a soul of a deceased person that will follow you to the end. But his or her soul is trapped in a certain item that is precious to them. For example that Teddy bear she’s holding, that’s her soul container. When one becomes a Spirit companion, he or she forgets the most recent memories of their lives.” Neltharion explained. “If you want to free your Spirit companion, you must destroy the spirit’s soul container in order to free the poor soul.”

“I see.” Greg glance at Sarah for the moment. “I don’t think I want do it just yet. I want to make sure Sarah gets a happy life before going to heaven.” And hugs Sarah like a father making us, Neltharion and the Empress smile.

“Also to answer your question regarding to the surviving humans, they were captured and turn into slaves for labour, sex, livestock and lab rats.”

“THEY DID WHAT!?!” I shouted in rage not noticing that my eyes were glowing bright blue.

“Believe or not, it's true.” Neltharion said.

“It is your destiny to bring justice to those who tried to harm humanity. Will you take upon this long and tedious journey to bring justice?” The Empress asked.

I looked back at my friends only to see them nodding their heads in a agreement. I turn around and faced the Empress. “I accept. As I, Gabriel Leon. Leader of the Ultramarines shall go on a crusade to deliver justice and vengeance to the enemies of humanity and unite its allies to one great nation!”

“Your quest shall start now. Good luck.” Was all the Empress said before falling asleep again causing us to facefault to the ground.

“Sigh, she just reminds of the Emperor form ‘If the Emperor had a text to speech device’.” I muttered. “Anyway is there any nearby settlement that belongs to the enemies of humanity?”

“Yes, there is one. If I remember correctly, the settlement is called Ponyville.” Neltharion answered.

“Good. And that’s where we’re going.” I said.

“Just head south once you exit out of the city ruins.” Neltharion added.

“Got it.” Ws all I said once me and my friends left the throne room.

(3 hours later…)

After trekking through the dense vegetations of the forest, I soon see a tall red barn from a distance along with a few strawed roof houses.

“Destination in sight brothers.” I announced.
Soon we neared the town entrance as we spotted one of the town locals from afar.
“Do not engage the locals until I give you the signal.” I ordered in a stern voice.

“Understood.”

“Good.”

We arrive at the entrance of the town which is called ‘Ponyville’ on a nearby sign. Soon the locals take notice of us and runs away in fear while others entered their homes and lock the doors.

“Is it me or are they just plain racist?” John asked.

“Possibly...or maybe it's the armor we’re wearing.” Greg concluded again.

In an instant, we were surrounded by winged equines in a clad of golden armor. They were equipped with spears, swords and crossbows. Soon another group of guards enters the scene this time, this group of equines had horns while the others behind them had no horns nor wings.

The rest of us readied our weapons for an upcoming fight. But before I could give the signal, a white flash appears with a popping sound and reveals a lavender winged-unicorn wearing a royal purple dress and a fancy tiara which has a large star on it.

“Stay where you are strangers, by the Equestrian law, you are to identify yourself this instant or force will be taken.” The lavender winged-unicorn equine demanded.

“I am Chapter Master Leon Gabriel. Chapter Master of the Ultramarines.” I half-lied.

“For I am Princess Twilight Sparkle. Newly appointed Princess of Friendship and wielder of the Elements of Harmony.”

“Can you kindly tell your troops to lower their weapons. If you don’t, we will defend ourselves.” I stated.

Twilight raises her hand as the guards lowered their weapons.

“Sorry about that. The guards are just doing their job since Human Liberation Front has been active a lot lately.” Twilight said sheepishly said.

‘The Human Liberation Front? Interesting. I might have a use of them in the future.’ I thought.

“Anyway, I’m sure you and friends must be new here right?” Twilight asked.

“Yes we are new here, my friends and I are simple travelers looking for supplies.” I lied.

“Oh, but let give you a tour around the town.” Twilight said.

“As you wish Princess.” I said and followed Twilight with the others.

“You sure this is a good idea Leon?” Greg whispered.

“Stay calm Greg. Let them do what they pleased. Remember that we’re here for intel. So deception is key.” I said while I listening to Twilight rambling about other stuff.

“And here is our auction house where we sell Humans.” Twilight said getting my full attention. And notice a unicorn wearing business suit selling a group of chained humans.

“Come and get your humans for 35 bits!” The slaver announced to the crowd.

My blood started to boil in anger as I see mother protecting her child from another slaver who attempted to snatch the child away. Before I could do anything.

DAKKA!

A loud crack echoed through the air and see a large gaping hole on the slaver’s chest as he falls to the ground dead.

I turn to my left and see Josh with his Bolter raised and it’s barrel smoking. Without a second thought the rest of my team makes their way towards the stage as Greg breaks one of the cages containing a couple of humans.

‘Fuck this shit.’ I put my staff aside and draw both my Power Sword and killed any nearby guards then make my way towards the others. but a purple beam hits me in the back but harmlessly bounce off my armor. I turn around and see Twilight with an enraged face.

“You lied to me. Your part of the Human Liberation Front aren’t you!?” She questioned.

“I do not know this Human Liberation Front.” I said. “But I will not allow you and your kind to enslave mine.”

“What do you mean your kind?”

“I’m glad you ask.” I stab both swords to the ground and reach for my helmet. I twisted the helmet which lets out a loud hiss and slowly take it off thus revealing my human face. “Surprise.”

Twilight and the rest of the crowd and Guards look at me shocked while I smiled at their reaction.

‘Oh this is going to be fun.’
