Chapters Prologue part 1 - Arrival and Adoption
It was a calm spring morning, the sun was shining and the world was calm, in the middle of a local park a mother sat under the shade of a oak tree with her youngest son while watching her other two older boys run around and being idiots, her youngest was sitting and playing games on her 18 year olds iPod while he ran round with her 15 year old. The young boy was almost 5 years old and was incredibly timid. He had short curly brown hair, soft blue eyes which were locked on the screen of the device, he was wearing a red hoodie, a superman top and shorts as he sat next to his mother.
"Having fun sweetie?" She asked as she ran her hand through his hair making him jump.
"Yes I am mommy" he said timidly making her smile softly.
"Okay, want an Ice Cream?" She asked gaining his attention again which caused her to giggle. "I'll take that as a yes then" she said before standing. "Richard! Can you watch Kevin while I get us some ice cream?" She called out to her 15 year old who gave her the thumbs up before she gave Kevin a kiss on his forehead and left. The older of the two ran over and knelt down in front of Kevin.
"Hey Kev, how is your gaming coming along?" He asked.
"It died Lui" he said with a frown as his older brother pulled out his mobile and headphones.
"How about some music, just don't go into the photos as their are adult things in there" he said as Kevin nodded, so Lui put the headphones on his little brother's head after adjusting it and played music from playlist he made for Kevin. "Okay have fun Kev, shout if you need me" he said as Kevin nodded before Lui ran back to Richard.
Kevin was sitting against the tree looking around bored until he saw a weird tail flicker before disappearing into a bush, he didn't think much of it until it happened again in a weird manner, which caused him to get up and walk over to the bushes. He looked inside and found a weird path and being the curious little 5 year old, he felt the need to explore. After a few minutes of walking down the path, he suddenly realised he didn't tell his brothers but when he turned to leave, he was faced with a wall of trees, causing him to get frightened and try to keep going forward only to find he was completely surrounded which caused him to tear up.
"Oh little one, don't cry" a female voice said catching his attention.
"Wh-who's there?" He asked with a sniff.
"I am a friend, I know what it's like to be lost without being able to find my parent" the voice said.
"But I don't want to be lost anymore.... Can you help me get home?" He asked.
"I can't help you get home but I can take you to a new home." She said.
"I don't want to go to a new home, I want to go to my old home" he said sniffling.
"I'm afraid you can't, you see I discovered that this world was coming to an end, so I decided to take a child somewhere safe, and that's where you are right now. Kevin" she said.
"I don't understand" he said.
"I know but look at it this way, you are safe and that's what your mommy wants, right?" Asked the voice.
"Y-yea I guess" Kevin said as he backed up against a tree.
"And I am going to take you somewhere safe" she stated.
"But who are you?" He asked as a weird mismatched creature walked out of the tree line.
"Why I am Eris, Daughter of Discord" she said as she approached him. "And I mean you no harm" she said crossing her heart literally as Kevin watched In slight awe.
"But where am I going?" He asked shaking as she stood in front if him.
"A place called Equestria" she said before clicking her fingers and they both vanished in a poof of pink smoke.
(Sweet Apple Aches)
Granny Smith was sitting in her rocking chair, it was a slightly cloudy day as she had her two year old grand colt on her lap as she told him stories, the foal was giggling and babbling adorably on the green mare's lap as he clapped his hands, Granny smiled as she looked at the farm to see her son in law, walking down the entrance in his armour, he had his swords strapped to his back and his Stetson on along with his red and green mane tied up in a pony tail. "Hey Granny, how's little Mac?" He asked as he stepped on to the porch, which creaked slightly under the peach stallion's boot.
"Oh he is being ah little dear, Sword" she said as she tickled the red foal's belly.
"That's good, hey is Pink around?" He asked as she nodded.
"Yes she is checking on the trees at row 12" she said as Sword tipped his hat and went to find his wife, he soon found the pink mare looking at one of the many apple trees, he took a moment to check out the mare, her short yellow mane and tail were littered with leaves and twigs, her jeans were split and hugged her curvy figure and her Blue Flannel was tied just under her bust to show her soft pink furry midsection.
He couldn't help but give a whistle causing her to turn and smiled at him. "Hello Sword, how was work?" She asked in a thick country accent as he approached and put his arms gently around her.
"Oh you know, complete Buckery, but it came with a promotion" he said as she gasped.
"Ya mean?" She asked.
"Yep, Captain Sword Dance of Ponyville Guard" he said proudly as she squealed and hugged him tightly.
"Ah'm so proud of ya sugarcube" she said smiling.
"Yea I going to go meet the Princess tomorrow" he said.
"Oh ma Celestia! Ah have ta make somethin' for ya ta give ta her" she said.
"No baby it's fine" he said but it fell on deaf ears as she ran off and he simple placed his face in his palm and groaned. "Any excuse to bake with that one" he chuckled before a sound causing his ear to twitch an rotate, I was the sound of crying.... A foal's crying. "What the buck?" He muttered as he turned to go to the sound, he wandered until he found a small hairless deformed colt crying his eyes out. 'What monster would abandon their child, even if they are deformed' he growled before slowly and quietly approaching, well as best he could in full plated armour. The colt turned to him and screamed out in fear before backing up against a tree.
"What are you? Please don't hurt me" he cried as Sword raised an eyebrow at the statement.
"I'm not gonna hurt you young one, I'm a Guard, I protect ponies" he said slowly approaching.
"Bu-but I'm not a pony" he cried.
"Of course you are, no matter what anypony says, you are a pony" he said as he approached.
"But I'm not a pony, I'm a human" the foal said causing Sword to stop.
'Why didn't I realise that he could be a different race?' He thought before slapping himself which cause the young colt to giggle which gave him an idea which worked when Mac was sad. "What you like when I hurt myself? Well that's just.... woah" he said before tripping on purpose making the colt giggle more. Sword smiled before he stood up and rubbed his muzzle. "Feeling better?" He asked as the child nodded. "Good, want some Apple pie?" He asked as the boy was about to speak but his stomach growled. "I'll take that as a yes" he said gesturing the child to follow him, which he did hesitantly.
"My name is Kevin..... Sir" the boy said.
"That's an interesting name Kevin, mine is Sword Dance" he said which Kevin giggled to. "What?" He asked.
"Your name is weird" he said as Sword grinned.
"So is yours" he chuckled as they soon arrived at the porch, Granny Smith gave a curious look upon Kevin, who was hiding behind Sword's leg. "Granny, this is Kevin, he is a human foal who has lost his parents.... I hope" he said as Granny nodded.
"Ah see, well are ya hungry Kevin?" Asked the aged mare as Kevin nodded briefly, making the Old Mare smile and walk over to him. "Come on, let's got get something to eat" she said offering her hand which he took before she led him into the farmhouse, just as Pink walked out looking at him.
"Now who is the little Cutie?" She asked.
"His name is Kevin and he is a human.... What ever that is" he said as he sat on the porch with a sigh as his wife sat next to him.
"Ah human? Odd species name, anyway any idea where his parents are?" She asked.
"No I don't, I hope they aren't dead or they haven't simply abandoned him" he said looking down.
"Hey look on the bright side, if he has no family then we can adopt him" he said.
"Your joking?" He asked her as she shook her head.
"Nope, look Sword, we have been trying for the last year ta have another foal but it's not working.... And he may not has any family so it would be a win win" she said as Sword raised an eyebrow. "Plus he is already passed crying all night and diaper stage" she added.
"Okay I'm sold" he said as they both chuckled. "I'll have to take him tomorrow to see the princess and if she is okay then we will" he said as she smile and kissed his cheek. "But no promises" he said as she nodded before he got up and headed inside with her, they found Kevin asleep on the couch, his head on Granny's lap as she gently stroked his cheek. "Everything alright?" Sword asked as she nodded.
"Yes, ah gave him something to eat and he just fell asleep straight away" she said as Pink smiled with Sword before Sword headed to his room to change. As he was getting undress, he heard the door open and then close and lock.
When he looked, he saw Pink with a smile on her face. "Let's try one last time?" She asked as Sword nodded which made her smile and lead him to their bed.
(Next morning, Train)
Sword was sitting in a booth with Kevin asleep, leaning against him with his headphones on, Sword was in his armour with a large white box on his lap, which was sore from the night before. Kevin had received many looks, most were out if curiosity and very few of disgust, but those looks soon turned to fear when the taller the average Stallion in armour threatened them. They had gotten the earlier train before the sun had risen as his meeting with the Princess was to be before she began her day court, this helped as Sword and Kevin could make it to the castle without hassle.
"2 minutes to Canterlot" the ticket master shouted, causing Kevin to awake with a start and look around before up at the Stallion.
"Not long now Kevin" he said as the human child nodded and stretched,
"Okay, my brother's phone died anyway" he sighed as he raised an eyebrow.
"Phone?" He asked as Kevin pulled out the IPhone and showed him. "Hmmm interesting, how does it work?" He asked.
"Um it is used to make calls..... Talking to people far away easily" he said as Sword looked shocked.
"Wow, that would be incredibly useful" he said as he scratched his chin.
"It also holds games and music and photos" he added as Sword looked stunned.
"Really? That's just.... Wow" he said as Kevin giggled. Sword noticed them entering the station so he put his Stenson on and grabbed the white box before standing as the two exited the train and made their way to the castle. The streets were near empty, save for a few unicorns who proceeded to glare at Kevin and call him names as they passed causing the young boy to get teary eyes. This made the journey longer as they had to stop so Sword could comfort the child.
Upon arriving at the Castle, the guards let the two In after Sword showed the letter he received from the Princess, they were skeptical about Kevin, but they let him in after Sword did some negotiating. As they entered the main door, they were led by a Butler to a dining hall and told to wait outside, there was two Pegasus guardmares who were very curious about Kevin, who was hiding behind Sword. "What's your name?" Asked one of the guards.
"Ke....Kevin" he said quietly as the mare smiled.
"Hello, I'm Iron feather" she said smiling softly as Sword looked at the other Mare.
"She really likes children" she said shaking her head as the door opened .
"You may enter now Captain" a regal voice said as he took a deep breath and entered with Kevin. The two enters to find the princess of the sun sipping on a cup of tea as she looked at the two curiously. "Now who is this little one Captain?" She asked as Sword looked at Kevin, who was still hiding behind him.
"This is Kevin my Lady, I found him crying all alone in the orchid" he said as he gestured for Kevin to say hello but he just hid.
"Well he is quite timid, hello Kevin, my Name is Celestia, " she said kindly as he looked at the White Alicorn with a flowing multicoloured mane.
"Hi" he said quietly which made her smile as she rose from her seat, when he did however he squeaked at her height.
"Oh I'm sorry I frightened you" she said walking over and sitting down on her knees in front of him. "I can assure you it wasn't my intention" she said with a kind smile as he nodded. "If I may, would you let me have a look at your memories so I can see if you mean my ponies harm?" She asked.
"How can you?" He asked timidly as she smiled.
"With magic of course" she stated.
"But my brother Richard said that Magic isn't real" he said.
"Oh isn't it? Then how can I do this?" She asked as her horn lit up in a golden aura before he was surrounded In the same aura and brought to be in front of her, he was more awestruck then frightened.
"Wow" he said as she put him down gently.
"Yes it is, so may I have a look?" She asked.
"Will it hurt?" He asked as she shook her head. "Okay" he said as she placed her horn against his head and it lit up, he felt a little dizzy when she did so but felt better when she pulled away, except she had a very sad expression on her face.
"Are you okay my lady?" Asked Sword as she nodded.
"Yes, just.... I'm sorry about you loosing your daddy and mommy Kevin" she said as Kevin looked down. "And I am sorry that Evil Eris took you away from your family and your world" she said.
"Wait so he is from another world?" Asked Sword as Celestia nodded. "That explains that device he has" he said as the statement sparked Celestia's curiosity.
"Oh right Lui's phone?" He asked as Kevin pulled it out of his pocket. "May I?" She asked.
"Be careful" he said.
"I will little one, I have the same understanding of how to use this as you do" she said before stopping "that's probably not a good thing" she said before tapping her horn gently against the device and it turned on. "There we go power, now let's have a look" she said looking through it before suddenly her wings extended fully and her face was a shade of red. "Oh my, definitely for adults only" she said returning the device to the human. "So as I have the blueprint for the Phone now, we can incorporate it into a pony version, but the main question is, what to do with you Kevin?" She asked.
"Um my wife and I wouldn't mind adopting him" Sword said as she looked at him with a smile.
"Yes that works, now I'll have him marked down as an Equestria citizen and have him enrolled in a school near you" he said as Sword nodded before remembering the box.
"Oh my wife Pink Lady made this for you" he said offering her the box which she opened and smiled.
"Apple Fritas and Pies" she said smiling. "Tell your wife thank you for me" she said as Sword nodded and left with Kevin.
Kevin was awoken by a gentle rocking causing him to yawn and look at the tall pink mare smiling softly at him. "Hey sweetie, it's time for school" she said as Kevin sat up.
"But I am not suppose to start school till I'm 7" he said yawning and looked at his Mother that he has had for two months now.
"Hmmm, well here in Equestria, ponies start at 5 and seeing the new school year has started seeing its Spring." She said as he nodded before he slipped out of the bed. " ah have set out some clothes from ms Belle for ya to put on Dear" she said smiling at him before she left the room.
Kevin rubbed his arm before looking at the clothes, he didn't smell bad which Granny said he wouldn't till he was bigger so he could get away with showers, one of things he really hated. He walked over and changed out of his pj's and into a red Flannel top, seeing Pink wanted him to have Flannels like her, after he was dressed he yawned and rubbed his eyes before grabbing his bag, before coming to Equestria he was excited to start school but now, he was nervous as he was the only human, it didn't help that the Princess decided to make him her Nephew which he didn't get cause she wasn't related to his New dad or Mom. After shaking the thought he headed out of the room and down the stairs to find Granny Knelt down in front of Mac, who was walking towards her before falling on his face and giggling like a twit. "Odd" he muttered before he was picked up by his new Father.
"Morning my boy, how did you sleep?" He asked as he carried Kevin into the kitchen.
"I slept okay but I think I'm sick" he said gaining both his Parents attention.
"What?! What's wrong dear?" Asked Pink as he was sat down in a chair and Sword placed the back of his hand against Kevin's head.
"His tempeture is alright, what abo... Ooof" Sword was saying before he was pulled out of the way by Granny, who sat on a chair in front of him.
"Are ya still worried about goin' ta ah Pony School?" She asked as Kevin hesitantly nodded. "Is it cause ya think they will make fun of ya?" She asked as he nodded again "well how are ya gonna find if ya right or not if ya sit here?" She asked him as he was about to answer before thinking.
"I'm not" he said sighing.
"Tell ya what, if ya go and do this, I'll cook ma special Pancakes for supper" she said gaining Sword's attention.
"Really?" He asked as she nodded.
"When have ah eva lied to ya?" She asked.
"Never" he said as she nodded.
"Correct, now eat up and I'll make ya some lunch, Sword would you be a dear and change Mac" she asked as Sword's smile faded and he grumbled before leaving the room.
Granny chuckled before going to start cooking while Pink placed a plate of pancakes in front of Kevin, which he ate, shortly after Kevin was adopted, he became sick which his parents didn't understand why until they discovered his need for high protein food or meat, this caused them both to panic before Granny slapped them both and told them to by fish from a Pegasus fisherman, as apparently Pegasi ate Fish to help give them protein and keep their their wings glossy to help with flying. After he had finished eating, Granny gave him his lunch in a small container along with an apple before Sword returned with a big brown stain on his shiny chest plate and specks of brown on his face.
"How?" Ask Pink when she saw him.
"He bucked the diaper" he groaned.
"Well I guess I'll take Kevin to school then while you clean up for work" she said as he nodded and went upstairs before Pink left with Kevin to the school. As they approached the school, Kevin saw other kids walking the school, they were different ages to him but he managed to see some with their parents walking, but Pink stopped them just before entered the school grounds an knelt down in front of him. "Okay so make some friends, have fun, be nice and be good" she said as Kevin nodded before she smiled and led him in before taking him to his class and giving him a kiss before leaving.
Kevin entered the class room and sat near the back, a few colts and fillys looked at him curious as a blue one with a pink mane and tail sat next to him with a smile. "Hello?" He asked
"Hey, my name is Cup Cake, what's yours?" She asked happily.
"Um Kevin" he said timidly.
"Nice to meet you, wanna be friends?" She asked as she offered her hand which he shook. "Come meet the others" she said as he nodded and went with her and sat with a group of children. "Okay this is Berry Punch" she said pointing to a dark pink filly who smiled and waved, "this is Carrot Cake, no we aren't related because he is a dweeb" she said pointing to a yellow colt with an orange mane.
"Hey" he said.
"Next is Filthy Rich" he said pointing to a tan colt who waved shyly, his mane was scruffy and dark brown. "Next is Caramel, he is really nice but he is four" she said about the yellow colt with a brown mane.
"What's that got to do with anything?" He asked.
"Next is Cheerilee" she said pointing to a dark purple filly with a mane with two tones of pink. "And that's everypony" she said as Carrot and Caramel pouted.
"Hi, um I'm Kevin" he said as they greeted him as the rest of the class arrive and most stared at Kevin, who shrunk under their gaze as a tall Bright yellow Mare entered with a green sundress, he mane was tied in a bun as she smiled at the class.
"Welcome to your first day of School little ones, my name is Sunshine and I will be your Teacher" she said as all the class greeted her as 'ms Sunshine' "now today will be a sort of meet everypony day, there will be games and things like that, okay shall we go outside?" She asked as the class got up from their seats and made their way outside before Sunshine noticed Kevin sitting at his desk with Filthy trying to get him to come along.
"Come on Kevin" he said.
"Is everything alright?" Asked the teacher as she walked over and knelt in front of the young boy and colt.
"Kevin is really shy ms" Filthy said as she nodded and smiled.
"I see well I can help you get passed that shyness if you want?" She asked as he nodded. "Good here come with me" she said offering her hand as he took it and he was led outside to see his new friends smiling at them, "now we shall being with a game of tag" she said smiling before walking over and tapped a lime colt on the head gently. "Your it" she said as the foals scattered as the lime colt took chase. The game went well until a white filly was tagged but she was slower then others causing her to get upset until Kevin ran up to her and offered his hand which she looked at him confused before looking at his hand.
"Come on, my arm is getting tired" he teased as she tagged him and he smiled before running and tagging Mayor, who was less then happy as she went for Carrot.
As it reached lunchtime, Kevin was sitting with his friends and eating their lunch under a tree while chatting about random things, it was nice until Kevin noticed a red colt cornering the White Filly from earlier, she looked like she was about to cry as Kevin walked over and hit the colt with a branch in top of his head, just as Sunshine came out to see the Crying colt and Kevin with the branch in hand. She took him inside and had him sit in a room by himself as she lectured him about bullying others and how it was wrong. Kevin nodded and went to class when the bell rang, he sat in the back alone until his friends arrived and sat with him, along with the white Filly, who was named Snow Drop.
At the end of the day, Pink arrived and was talked to by Sunshine before she left with Kevin, Pink didn't say anything as they walked until they got home which was when he was grounded for a week and was sent to bed without supper. The year went on like this as Kevin looked after Snow and his friends from bullies and didn't argue when he got detentions, his parents soon found out why he was attacking Colts when Snow's father arrived on day and asked to thank Kevin for protecting his Daughter. Also through the year, Kevin noticed Pink getting fatter but he knew better then to say anything about it as that was rude, she kept growing and eating weird things until suddenly after school he was picked up by Granny, he was then taken to the hospital, when they arrived, Kevin met his new Little sister named Apple Jack.
(Fast forward 3 years)
Kevin was sitting in a large manor with his friends, the manor belonged to Filthy's Dad, who had recently started allowing his Eight year old son to have friends over, the passed three years had been big, Mac had started school, Apple Jack had said her first word, which to much of her parents delight and Swords annoyance, was Kevin's name, Kevin had also started helping Pink on the farm with picking, she was hesitant until she was comfortable with him climbing.
Kevin was sitting on Filthy's bed as he watched Carrot and Cup bicker about something that was stupid, like an old married couple Kevin thought before smiling at the quote Richard use to say, this caused him to sigh before he was hit in the face by a teddy bear, making him blink for a moment before looking at Mayor who had a smirk on her face. "Really?" He asked as she threw another, which hit him in the chest softly, "your so mean" he teased as she giggled and shrugged, Caramel was playing with a puzzle with Cherrilee, Snow and Berry while Filthy was whistling while drawing. "So what do you wanna be when you grow up Mayor?" Kevin asked.
"I want to be a Mayor.... Or a life guard" she said.
"So Mayor Mayor Mare?" He asked with a smirk as she stuck her tongue out at him.
"No you ignore the first part" she said.
"So Mayor Mare?" Asked Filthy as Mayor groaned.
"What about you Filthy?" Asked Kevin.
"Real estate agent or banker" he said as Kevin nodded in agreement.
"Okay what about you Cherrilee?" He asked.
"Disco Dancer" she said striking a pose causing the group to start laughing until a knock was heard at the door.
"Master Filthy, may you send Kevin out here?" Asked the Maid as Filthy looked at Kevin who nodded and exited, the maid led him to the front door an found his mother standing there with Apple Jack in her arms.
"Hey mom, is everything okay?" He asked as she shook her head. "What's wrong?" He asked.
"Your dad has been hurt and is in Hospital at the moment" she said as Levi looked at her shocked.
"What happened?" Kevin asked.
"He was on a training session with some new Guards and they group was attacked by a group of Timberwolves" she said.
"Is he okay?" Kevin asked as he friends gathered to watch.
"Yes but he can never be a guard again" she said sadly.
"Come on Kevin, you can try better!" stated a mature masculine voice as a now 17 year old Kevin panted while hunched over, sweat dripping from his face. He straightened back up and gripped his wooden sword as he looked at the cream stallion in front of him. The stallion wore a black singlet and cargo shorts, his left leg and arm were metal with crystals inside to allow them to act like normal limbs, his left ear was half missing and his left eye was milky white with three long scars over it. The stallion in front of him was his father, and ever since his accident he wanted to teach Kevin how to protect their family; their family, which a little under 3 months ago had a new member to it. Her name was AppleBloom, a yellow filly with a red mane and tail, who followed Kevin around everywhere like a lost puppy after she learnt to crawl. As if that wasn’t enough, Sword and Kevin got Mac and Applejack a puppy for the Last Hearth's Warming.
"Give me a second dad, today has been long" Kevin panted as he remembered that his best friend had found out that his father had arranged him to get married and that he had asked Kevin to be his best man. Not only that, but Cherrilee's family had moved to Manehattan, and Snow's back to Vanhoover.
"I know my boy, losing friends is hard, but remember they shall write to you." he said as Kevin nodded before straightening up.
"Now let's go over this again or you’re never gonna impress the recruitment officer tomorrow" Sword said as Kevin groaned, the Recruitment Officer had refused Kevin several times as he wasn’t a pony; though legally he was thanks to his ‘aunt’ Celestia, so he wanted to woo the guardmare so she would accept him.
"Okay...I'm ready!" Kevin said taking a deep breath before steeling himself.
"Remember to parry and block when you can," Sword advised before launching forward to begin the train again.
Pink was sitting on the porch watching Kevin and Sword duel, next to her was Big Mac who had turned 15 recently but was shy when it came to hanging out with Ponies, so Kevin usually dragged him out to hang out with himself and his friends. To his left was Applejack, who was 12 and hanging out with a few fillies her age, like one named Bon Bon or Kevin's friend Nursery Rhythm.
After another exhausting and painful hour, Kevin stood above his father with the wooden blade to his throat and his boot on his chest as his father had a massive grin on his face. "And with that, i can teach you no more, my boy" he said proudly as Kevin smiled and pulled his father to his feet. "Tomorrow I’ll come with you to Canterlot to watch you" he said as Kevin nodded and they walked over to the porch, smiling at their other family members before Kevin's phone went off. Thanks to Celestia and Kevin, Equestria had created their own type of phones called P-phones which Kevin's mobile was connected to. He pulled out the old phone and looked at the caller ID before answering.
"Hey Snow!" he said to his friend.
"Hey Kevin! Look, I know you’re probably still angry at me, but could we meet up? Maybe at my place in a few minutes…? It’s just that I want to hang out one last time before I leave tomorrow," she asked sadly as Kevin looked at his family.
"Yeah, I’ll head over now Snow" he said as his dad gave him the thumbs up.
"Really?! Cool, um…I'll see you soon...thank you Kevin!" she said before hanging up.
"Tomorrow at the station at 7am sharp!" Sword said as Kevin nodded before heading inside to grab a backpack with clothes before saying his goodbyes and heading off. It took him about half an hour to reach Snow's home but when he did, he was greeted by her father. A muscular Snow white pegasus with a black mane and tail named Snow Storm, he was in a pair of jeans and loose hoodie with the Ponyville Weather Patrol's logo on it: a four legged Pegasus bucking a storm cloud.
"Ah Kevin, Snow said you were coming over, and she asked me to go out, I wonder why she wanted that aye?" Storm asked with a knowing smiling as Kevin turned bright red before Storm started laughing. "I'm kidding my boy, she didn't say anything of the sorts, but if I was a mare her age seeing my coltfriend, then I would want something like that! And before you say anything, I'm happy that it was you that she fell for - but enough of that! I'm going to go to the movies and have a few last drinks with my buddies from work" he said smiling before patting Kevin's back and leaving Kevin standing there feeling a little awkward and nervous.
"Kevin, you’re here! Come with me," Snow said, coming out in a blue dress that resembled her mane before she took his hand and pulled him inside and closed the door. She led him to the house's basement before handing him a blind fold. "It’s a surprise" she teased as he nodded and put it on. Taking his hand, she lead him for a while before sitting him in a chair and left him. He heard a few bangs and crashes happening in front of him as well as "For buck sake!"
"You okay Snow?" He asked her.
"Yeah, just trying to remember where… ah ha!" she cried before he felt her tap his knee. "You can take off your blind fold now," she said as Kevin did, only to come face to face with a pair of lockets, which caused him to cock an eyebrow before she opened them to show a picture of their friends group in one and a picture of just the two of them in another. "What do you think?" she asked.
"Wow…" was all he could say before she placed one on his lap and undid the other, putting it around his neck and smiling.
"That should help you remember me" she said before Kevin picked up the other. Snow sat on his lap with her back to him, holding her mane to the side as he put the locket on her neck. "And this will help me remember all of you" she said before turning and kissing him softly. "I love you" she added, equally softly.
"I love you too" he said as she smiled and kissed him again.
______________________________________________________________________________________________
The next morning, Kevin was awoken to his alarm going off. He looked at his phone to confirm that he had an hour to get to the station, sighing before looking over at Snow who was cuddled up to his naked form. He smiled before gently kissing her, causing her to awaken and smile back as she sat up, the blanket covering them coming to rest at her waist. Kevin looked at her c-cup bust before sighing. "I have to go" he said as she looked at him, confused for a moment.
"I thought we could spend time together before my dad and I have to leave?" She said, slightly upset.
"I would love that too, but today is my last chance to join the guard" he said as she put her arms around him and nuzzled his shoulder.
"It’s a stupid rule that you can only apply five times" she growled.
"Yeah, but it's the rules… I better head off before I'm late" he said as he hugged her.
"Will your write?" She asked.
"Of course, you send me a letter when you’re there so I have your address and I'll write you back" he said as she nodded before letting go of him and gave him a sad smile.
"Thank you. Well, I guess we could get ready together" she said kissing him as he nodded before reaching for his top from the night before until she grabbed it with a smirk. "This is mine now" she said as Kevin chuckled.
"You have like 10 of my tops already and all my hoodies!" he said to her.
"Yes, and now I have 11" she said cheekily, pulling the top on before getting up and leaving the room, making him shake his head and go to her bathroom with his bag, getting in the shower, only to be quickly joined by his marefriend.
After half an hour of getting ready, Kevin gave Snow one last kiss before leaving her home. He was in a red flannel shirt that hung open to show a black top, he also wore a pair of cargo pants and black boots as he walked to the station. As he walked he bumped into his friends who wanted to wish him luck as they walked to the station with him.
"Hey Kevin! Where’s Snow? I would think that she’d see you off," Caramel said as Kevin sighed.
"She would, but she’s packing today to leave at sunset." Caramel nodded before Cup smacked him on the back of the head. They all arrived to find Sword in his old armor, his swords on his back and wearing his classic Stetson. Over his right pauldron was a gold patch with numerous medals and a crest signifying his old rank. He smiled when he saw his son and his friends. "Why are you all dressed up?" asked Kevin.
"Well, if I'm coming I have to look my best!" He chuckled before offering Kevin a long package. "Here - a good luck gift, my boy!" Kevin unwrapped it to find a sword in a sheath, which he slung over his back.
"Thanks dad" he said hugging the stallion as the train was coming.
"Hey Kevin, a good luck gift from all of us" Cup said offering Kevin an armband which had each of their Cutie Marks stitched into it along with Snows. "Rhythm did the sewing" she said as he hugged each of them.
"Thank you guys, it means a lot" he said rolling up his sleeve and putting it on his upper arm just as the train arrived. "Well, see you guys later." he said as they exchanged goodbyes before Kevin and Sword climbed on-board the train. The pair took their seats in a barely occupied carriage save for a blue Pegasus stallion with a silver mane and a white unicorn mare with a pink mane. Both instantly locked their gaze on Sword as he and Kevin sat in a double booth, and soon the ponies came over and sat across the two.
"Can we help you?" Sword Dance asked.
"Yes, um, by chance are you Captain Sword Dance of Ponyville guard?" asked the mare.
"I was nine years ago, why do you ask" he asked.
"Hello Sir, um, your bravery gave me the dream to be a guard" she said smiling as the Stallion nodded.
"Same with me sir," the stallion added. He wore a green top with yellow shorts while the mare was in tracksuit pants and a jumper and was slightly on the chubby side.
"Ah, well I’m happy that I could help. Seeing as you know my name may I know yours?" Sword asked.
"Oh yes, my name is Storm Shield" the stallion said.
"And I am Fleur Dis Lee" said the mare as she looked at Kevin. "You must be Kevin Jenson? Am I right?" she asked as he nodded. "Sorry, it’s just that it was kind of the news for a few years" she said as Kevin chuckled.
"Nah its cool, at least you aren't calling me an ape" he said.
"I would never be such a bitch!" she said as Shield snickered "Well to somepony I want to be friends with" she said glaring at Shield. They three talked for the duration of the trip while Sword napped. They told Kevin that they were both from a place called Prance and that they ran away from their annoying abusive family, and so when they had enough bits they left.
When they arrived, the four of them walked to the castle, passing through the main gate and on to the training ground. However, it was different this time, standing in place of the recruitment officer was a black thestral with a blood red mane and tail in full dark blue armor, the cloth over her pauldron showing medals and a crest signifying that she was a Colonel. Her glare softened when she saw Sword as she flew over to him, smiling. "Sir" she said as Fleur, Shield and Kevin looked at Sword.
"Night, you’re a higher rank then me now, so stop calling me sir" he chuckled.
"I can't help it Sir, you were my captain for three years before the incident and I transferred" she said smiling as she then looked at Kevin "Is this Kevin?" She asked as Kevin looked at his father.
"Yes he is, except he’s bigger than he was in the photos" he said as she nodded.
"I see, well you three better get in line with the others." she added in a strict voice as they nodded and got in line. Night flew back in front of the dozen of ponies and one human. "Alright! So Sargent Crystal Calamity is sick today so I shall be observing you. Today is a little different as not only will I hold the physical evaluation but we shall also hold the combat evaluation" she said as everyone gulped. "Now, let's begin" she ordered as each pony was checked over: their weight, their lungs, eyes, hearing, endurance and strength. After an hour, only four remained: Kevin, Shield, Fleur and a white unicorn stallion by the name Shining Armor. "Alright, now we shall begin with combat. All of you who don’t have a weapon, please collect one from the stand." she gestured as Shield and Fleur both went and grabbed swords before returning to the lineup.
The combat evaluation guard made her way onto the field, before stopping and gawking at the human. "What the Buck Sir! Why is that thing still here?" she yelled, pointing at Kevin.
"Because he passed the Physical evaluation with flying colors, now STOP BEING A BIGOT AND START THE EVALUATION!" Night roared causing all but Sword to shrink.
"Y-yes Sir" she muttered, saluting before her horn glowed and a crystal pony appeared in the ring with a sword.
"Now Shining Armor, you’re first up" she gestured to the stallion as he nodded and drew his long sword from his hip, but before he stepped into the ring, a loud flapping was heard causing all to turn and see the Princess gracefully land and sit on the bleachers along with a pink Pegasus. "Princess!" Night said as everyone bowed.
"Hello Colonel, I heard your shouting and came to see what was wrong, but seeing as you handled it I have decided to watch with my young friend Cadence" she said as the pink Pegasus waved, causing Shining to look at the pegasus dumbly until Kevin walked over and gently smacked him on the back of the head without anypony seeing.
"Thanks" he said before entering the ring, moments after entering, the construct charged him but he side stepped it and severed it head causing everypony to clap as he walked out and stood next to Kevin. "Was she watching?" He whispered as Kevin nodded, causing Shining to smile.
"Nice work Shining Armor, next is Shield Storm" Night announced as the recruit entered the ring just in time for the construct to finish repairing itself and charge. Storm flared his wings and took to the air, then diving down and kicking the construct to the ground before driving his sword into its chest, shattering it. He smiled and exited the ring with a limp from kicking it.
"That's a pass, but keep in mind, showing off in real will get you hurt or killed" Night lectured before looking at the clip board. "Fleur Dis Lee, you’re next" she gesture as Fleur looked nervous.
"You got this" Kevin said encouragingly.
"I have never attacked anything unless I was fencing," she said nervously.
"Well, imagine you’re fencing, except drive the blade into it instead of just poking it!" he advised as she nodded before entering. The construct charged and swung its horn, which she attempted to side step; however her left arm was hit, a pink lightning bolt zapping her arm causing it to hang limply as she drove her own blade into its chest, defeating it before she looked at her arm.
"What’s wrong with my arm?" she asked looking at Night.
"It’s a simple enchantment; it stuns the area where it's hit - perfect for training and crowd control. You’re just gonna have a bruise on your arm but you passed.” Night said leading her out before she called Kevin in, except when he entered a pink barrier formed around the ring as the construct reformed; however this time it grabbed its sword and pulled a Chuck of it away as if it was unsheathing a sword. The blade was a silver color; its chest glowed and changed to the same color before its eyes glowed red. Kevin looked to see the recruiter smirking as her horn stopped glowing. "SERGEANT! WHAT THE BUCK ARE YOU DOING?!" Night shouted.
"Ridding this world of an abomination." She said as Night tackled her to the ground.
"Stop this!" Night ordered.
"I can't, the shield won't drop until one is defeated and the construct is magic-proof now" she laughed before Night punched her in the face, knocking her out. Meanwhile, Kevin was dueling with the construct; he had already received several gashes to his arms but had severed the Constructs arm. He dodged a slash before severing its head but the crystal pony continued to fight as it sliced across Kevin's chest but Kevin lunged, pushed its arm out of the way and drove his sword into its chest, causing it to shatter moments later the shield failed and fell away. Kevin sheathed his sword and walked out of the ring, his clothes torn and bloodied and stood back in line with the three shocked ponies.
"And that's a definite pass" Celestia said smiling.
______________________________________________________________________________________________
That night, Kevin and Sword arrived back at their home; Kevin had his arms and chest bandaged as the two looked nervous as they walked to the farm house. Applejack saw them first and ran over to them before hugging them both. Kevin smiled before he saw his mother walk out holding Apple Bloom, her smile turned to that of worry when she saw the state of Kevin. "What happened to you?" She asked walking over to him.
"Dad is gonna explain" Kevin said before heading inside, the look on his father's face was shock and annoyance as he watched Kevin escape into the house.
Prologue part 4 - Graduation, MIA
Kevin was in the room he was given to share with Fleur as unfortunately due to the massive difference in genders, most stallions were paired with Mares, for the last two years, he has lived with the Prench mare, helping her with her sword play and she helped him with his remaining timidness. Within the first month of them sharing a room, Kevin had discovered that Fleur suffered from really bad nightmares when she slept alone, this of course led to Fleur sharing her bed with Kevin, but instead of becoming a Intimate couple that every recruit thought they would, they became like siblings, they helped each other along with Shining and Shield.
A year after their arrival, Snow had abruptly stopped sending him letters for a few months, which Kevin didn't really notice due to the intense training until Shield asked, this caused Kevin to spend his next break heading to Vanhoover with his three Best friends to discover Snow with a foal and another partner, the revelation worsened when the four recruits attempted to leave only to be confronted by Snow, who tried to apologise and beg for his forgiveness which simply led to Kevin dropping the locket he got from her onto the snowy ground and leaving.
So the training had finished, they were all about to graduate and start their new lives as guards, they would select their desired city to work in after the first week. Kevin was slipping in his armour and light blue cloth over his left Pauldron before attaching the sword he had gotten from his father, said sword had been repaired in several occasions. After checking the straps, he grabbed the small gold and red medallion from his wardrobe that signified him being one if the eight team leaders, "blue team for the win" he chuckled as he attached the medallion and grabbed his custom helmet, as human heads didn't fit in helmets for ponies, his helmet was coupled with a blue crest and a visor, the crest also a bonus for being team leader and the Visor as you could select between the two when you were given your armour the week before.
After checking himself and clipping the helmet to a hook on his belt, Kevin left the room to find Shining, Shield, and Fleur all were standing outside the room in similar armour save for the helmet. "Took you long enough" Fleur stated with a smirk, she had lost alot of her chubbyness, which was replaced with muscle but she still appeared lean.
"Well maybe if you did use all the hot water, I would have been faster" he said as she smirked as they began walking. "So you guys decided where your gonna be stationed?" He asked.
"Canterlot" Shining said without hesitation.
"Is that so you can gawk at the princess of love all day?" Asked Shield as Shining turned bright pink.
"Nooooo....... I also want to see my family" he said making the three laugh.
"How about you two?" Kevin asked.
"Well we thought it be best to follow you as your like family" Fleur said as Shield nodded.
"Hey I'll be sure to visit" Shining said smiling.
"Okay cool, well we better look fancy" he said as they arrived at the door moments before slipping on their helmets, when they walked out, they were greated by a large amount of family of the recruits but something was off, and it was nagging at Kevin as he got into position and through out the ceremony 'where is my family?' He thought as the Sergeant called out names of the team members and gave them their crest to show them being a Private. When he was finished he called each of the team leaders forward, the 8 moved forward and into a line at attention.
The Sergeant went from each and gave them a Crest signifying their new rank as Corporal before he turned to the crowd and gave a speech but Kevin wasn't paying attention as his eyes scanned the crowd through his Visor and still failed to find see his family.
After an hour the Ceremony was over and all the newly promoted guard were packed and leaving with their Family, saved for Shield, Shining, Fleur and Kevin who were being introduced to Shining's family, his mother and father were nice but Kevin nearly tore off his own ears from his little sister's ramblings, it was distracting him as he was trying to think. "Hey Shining, I'm gonna head back to Ponyville, I'll see you on a couple of days okay?" He asked as Shining gave the thumbs up before Kevin left with Shield and Fleur.
(Two days later)
"Why did the train have to be broken" Shield complained as Fleur and Kevin chuckled as they entered the small town of Ponyville, it had taken them two days to walk from the training camp to Ponyville thanks to the train being damaged.
"It could be worse" Kevin said as they walked through the busy streets.
"How so?" Shield asked.
"There could have been a thunder storm" he chuckled as Shield shivered at the thought of walking through a storm in full plate armour.
When the three reached the farm, they discovered Granny Smith sitting on her chair with AppleBloom, she wore a frown on her face as she held the sleeping foal, but upon hearing the crunch of boots, she looked up to see Kevin, Shield and Fleur. "Hey Kevin" she said smiling sadly.
"Hey Granny, what's wrong?" Kevin asked her.
The old mare took a inhaled and exhaled deeply before looking at Kevin on the brink of tears. "Pink and Sword passed." She said.
"Passed? What do you mean?" He asked as the door flew open to see a Fourteen year old AppleJack glaring at Kevin.
"Their Dead cuz of you!" She said shocking the three guards "They went to see ya to see ya bucking ceremony and their train derailed and now they are dead and its all your fault!" She shouted awakening AppleBloom who began crying, Kevin moved to confront his baby sister but was shoved off the balcony by AppleJack. "Dont touch her, she isnt your family, no pony is your family after what you did, mum and dad just felt sorry for you so just buck off" she shouted.
Kevin didn't say anything as he slung his bag over his shoulder and turned to leave. "Yea and don't come back!" She screamed at him as the three guards walked out of the farm. As they walked, Fleur put her arm around Kevin's shoulder while Shield was cracking jokes which soon caused Kevin to smile.
"Hey is there anyplace to get some decent food around here?" Shield asked.
"Yea a pair of my friends opened up a cafe so we can go there if you like" he said as the two nodded before they made their way to the cafe, they soon arrived at the gingerbread building and entered to find that it was quiet save for a few customers so the trio moved to the counter which was when they were confronted by a pink poofy mare that spoke 100 miles an hour about how she had never seen them before so they must be new to Ponyville and such.
"Girl I grew up here so no and I'm not in the mood for a party so can we get some coffee and food?
" Kevin asked as the mare looked slightly annoyed "Oh and is Carrot or Cup in?" Kevin asked as she thought before nodding. "Great may you send them over when you can" he asked as she shrugged before the three guards went to a booth to sit down. After a few moments their food and coffee arrived from the pink mare before she vanished.
"Pinkie where are you taking me?" Asked a voice from behind Kevin, he turned to see CupCake being led by the mare but her face turned from annoyance to happiness as she hugged her friend "It's so good to see you Kevin" she said smiling before she frowned "I'm sorry about your parents " she said sadly.
"It's fine I guess, anyway this is Shield and Fleur" he said gesturing the other two guards who waved.
"Hey, so your joining the Ponyville guard? " she asked as Kevin shook his head "what? Why?" She asked.
"AJ hates me so I hate what to think what Mac thinks..... and besides she said it herself, that I'm not part of the family" he said sipping his coffee.
"Your kidding?" She asked as Kevin shook his head. "The little bitch, does she even know that you joined the guard to help pay off the farms debt and put the three of them through school?" She asked as Kevin shrugged causing her to shake her head before sitting next to her friend. "Oh how's Snow?" She asked as Shield and Fleur both froze and looked at Kevin.
"Well about a year ago, I discovered that she has with another..... and had a foal" he said as Cup gasped.
"I'm sorry Kevin..... oh have you seen Nursery yet?" She asked as he shook his head "Okay I'll ask her to come here" she said pulling out her phone and texting the other mare.
"Kevin Where are we gonna be stationed?" Shield asked.
"Canterlot or Trottingham" he said as the two nodded before a familiar cream mare arrived with a small Brown colt in her arms, She walked over to the booth and sat next to Shield.
"Hey Kevin" she said smiling.
"Hey Rhyme, who us the little one?" He asked.
"This is my son, his name is Button Mash" she said looking down at the small colt.
"He is cute, who is the dad?" Kevin asked causing the cream mare to frown. "I'm sorry" Kevin said once he realised he messed up.
"No its fine, it was a one night stand" she said.
"His lose" Shield said gaining Rhyme's attention.
"Why do you say that?" She asked.
"Well you are really good looking and from what Kevin has told Fleur and myself, your super kind" he said as Rhyme turned bright red and hid her face.
"Well as much as enjoy watching you flirt Shield, we better go" he said as Shield groaned before he received Rhyme's number before Kevin paid and left after saying their good byes.
When the trio reached the train station they looked at their shared pool of bits. "Okay so we can either rent in Canterlot or live in Trottingham" Fleur said as the three looked at each other.
"Trottingham" they said in unison.
(3 years later)
Running through the town of Trottingham, a dozen guards were chasing a crazed unicorn stallion, the said stallion was wanted for several brutal assaults and murders in Trottingham. The group of guards were led by one of the Sergeants of the town, Kevin except he had grown a short beard, his armour was different then when he joined the guard in Trottingham. His armour was missing its chest plate, which was replaced with chain mail with a blue cloth cover, with the royal symbol over his heart. This was the armour design that was selected to be tested a few months back and unfortunately Trottingham was selected to trial it for a few months.
The stallion then ran into a old warehouse before turning and and using his magic to throw a massive slab of metal at the guards, knocking most down save for Kevin and Fleur, who charged in and cornered him with swords drawn.
"Give up Butt, you are surrounded" Kevin said to the tan Stallion with a Dark brown mane and a pink curly mustache.
"You'll pay for hurting my Brother" Fleur growled as the unicorn drew a knife before a hand ful of powdered glass and throwing it at Fleur, who managed to close her eyes but accidently inhaled the powder causing her to drop to her knees and cough violently as Butt charged her but was cut off by Kevin slammed him with his shield.
"I shall kill you and then continue my reign of stabbing" the Stallion laughed menacingly as he lunged at Kevin who proceeded to hit the Stallion in the face with his shield hard and knocked him out.
"You okay Fleur?" Kevin asked as he bound the stallion's wrists behind his back, he looked at his friend who was coughing up blood. "Shit" he said grabbing her and leading her out as guards entered to drag the psychopath out as Kevin took his friend to the hospital.
Upon arriving, the doctors took Fleur away and told Kevin to wait, so he sat in the lobby, writing the report for the arrest, he wasn't happy that Fleur was injured or the rest of the squad for that matter but he was happy to have that stallion behind bars. He was so caught up in his writing that he didn't notice a cream mare with a navy blue and pink mane stand in front of him until he heard her clear her throat. "Kevin " the voice said as he looked up.
"Bon Bon? What are you doing in Trottingham?" He asked her.
"I came to visit my Cousin Milky, but then I saw you heading to the hospital so I came to see you" she said.
"Okay, um how's AJ?" He asked as she nodded.
"She's good, she has realised what she did but her pride has stopped her from calling you, but when she did she didn't have your number...... she wants to apologise and have you back as her brother." She said as Kevin smiled softly before sighing.
"Well I get time off in about two weeks so I'll head to Ponyville to see her, okay?" He asked as Bon Bon nodded with a smile. "And how's AppleBloom? She's what 5 now?" He asked.
"Yea and she started school a few months ago, she asks about you alot though" the mare said.
"Well tell them that I'll see them in a fortnight" he said as she nodded before a group of guards approached him
"Sergeant Kevin Jenson?" The senior Guard asked as Kevin nodded. "You have been transfered to the Equestrian Army, as we need the best of each towns guard for a national threat." He said.
"Wait what?" Kevin said.
"No time we must leave now" the Stallion said.
" do I get a chance to say good bye?" He asked.
"You'll only be gone for a week at most" he said as Kevin looked at Bon Bon before nodding and leaving with the Guards but stopped when they bumped into a doctor.
"Hey Doctor, how is Fleur Dis Lee and Storm Shield?" He asked as the doctor looked at his clipboard.
"Sargeant Fleur Dis Lee is in a stable condition but she won't be able to do any strenuous activities ever again die to the damage in her lungs and Sargeant Storm Shield is alright, his flank has 72 stitches in it due to the multiple stab wounds to it, he won't be able to sit down comfortably for several months." He said as Kevin nodded before thanking him and leaving.
(Several days later, deep within the Everfree forest)
Kevin was laying in his tent, he was in a black top and shorts as his armour laid next to him, he was given a spell pistol which was a flintlock that had a 3 second recharge between shot, along with that he was given traditional full plated armour, he wasn't told what the threat was but he did notice large cannons being rolled up, the cannons working on the same principle as the pistol except more powerful and a 60 second recharge. He looked at the cream coloured arm band on his left arm, he gently traced his fingers over the cutie marks and sighed before he head boot steps approach his tent before the flap was opened to show a gold armoured Pegasus mare. "Suit up Guard, its time" she ordered as he nodded before getting geared up, he removed the arm band and put it into a pocket inside of the Chest plate before attaching the holster to his hip and his sword to his back before leaving his tent and following the Elite guard to a large staging area.
"Attention! You have all been wondering why you are here and I have grave news, we are right now, Equestria's first and final defense against and Incursion..... a Demonic Incursion" the commander said as all the soldiers gulped. "We will have artillery and snipers on the ridge overlooking the incursion sight while our main force shall be seperated into three groups, Unicorn, Earth Pony and Pegasi, the Earth Pony shall be our front line, the Unicorn shall be our ranged force and the Pegasi shall be our air support," he said as his amhorn lite up and showed the battle plan. "If you see the chance to seal the portal, by all means, seal it" he stated as the army agreed. "Alright, the incursion is supposed to happen at sunset, so let's get moving" he ordered as all the Equestians began moving to set up, the process took several hours but when they were done, Kevin was set up near the rear of the Earth Pony wall, he was with a mortar team, who were using bombs instead of spells as ammunition, when Kevin questioned this, he was told it was due to spells may not work against demons. As the time came, there was an uneasy silence as the sun slowly set, the most creepiest thing was, animals began to flee the valley, but before Kevin could question, the sunlight had left the valley and through the trees, Kevin could see green flames burning silently before a loudly wailing was heard, causing Kevin to cover his ears bu when the noise vanished, it was soon replaced with the sound of explosions and steel and against flesh or steel.
"What the hell?" Asked the Mare on the mortar.
"Whats wrong?" Kevin asked.
"It's not firing" she said checking over the device before pulling the trigger again. As this happened a massive explosion was heard as a tall created ripped through the trees and guards, it had long wirey fur along canine head but the skin around its mouth was pulled back to show its bone. Its body was that if a humanoid with massive talons as it tore through the ponies, but that's not the only thing Kevin noticed a cloaked figure chanting to a totem on the other side of the portal, this gave Kevin a crazy idea.
"Hey how long does it take for one of those bombs to detonate?" He asked the gunner.
"A few seconds, why?" She asked before Kevin grabbed one and began running towards the portal, he side stepped spells and demons, before sliding underneath the massive monster. When he saw the hooded figure and totem again, he realised he would have to enter the portal, so sterling his nerves, he slammed the trigger of the bomb, causing it to start ticking before he ran into the portal with his pistol drawn, he managed to make it to the totem before he was struck in the Chest by a bolt of magic, causing him to drop the bomb and stumble slightly, when he looked up, he saw the hooded figure holding a staff that glowed a red colour.
"You shall not stop us mortal" it said with a chuckle.
"I already have" he said before kicking the bomb until it slid under the totem before detonating, sending Kevin off and down a steep hill, banging and crashing before he landed in a shallow black water filled pond. He was looking at it as he watched the Portal seal itself shut, locking him inside Tartarus.after a moment, he pulled himself to his feet, ignoring the chunk of crystal sticking out of his shoulder and began running as demons chased him to take vengeance upon their ruined invasion.
(Sweet Apple Aches, one week later)
AppleJack was baking in her kitchen, she was wearing her father's stenson along with her mother's flannel top, in the room also was Big Mac sipping a mug of cold cider as he helped AppleBloom with her Homework, Granny Smith was out cold on her rocking chair in the living room when a loud knock came from the front door gaining the three younger ponies attention as AppleJack went and answered the front door, only to find a pair of guard standing there with grim looks upon their faces. "Ms do you mind if we come in?" One of the guards asked.
"What's all this about?" She asked.
"It would be better if we were inside or at least you were seated" he replied as she nodded and let them in before leading them to the kitchen and sat next to Mac. "Thank you..... now unfortunately we come bringing bad news" he said as Mac's eyes widened in realisation but AJ hadn't realised yet.
"What kind of bad new could ya bring?" She asked as the guards looked at each other before the second guard produced a helmet, the helmet's front was too short for a pony's face and not shaped right. "Why did ya place this weird helmet on ma table? The only pony that could possibly wear this is..... oh no" she said finally realising as the guards nodded. "But.... no this can't be.... how?" She demanded as she stood up and banged her fist against the table making both guards jump.
"He sacrificed himself to seal a portal to Tartarus,:this not only allowed our artillery to begin working again but it also saved hundreds of guards, Equestria and possibly all of Equis" he said before sighing "we just hope he died in the explosion" he added.
"Why would you say something like that, and why aren't you trying to find him." She shouted.
"Because if he is alive then he is trapped in Tararus and we can't get into Tartarus to save him even if we were allowed to" the Stallion yelled as he rose to his feet. "Don't you think there are dozens who want to save him for what he did to save us?" He shouted before the other guard pulled him back down. "I'm sorry" he said.
"It's fine," Mac said as the two guards took their leave, leaving the helmet on the table before Mac turned to AppleJack, who was crying. "Hey its fine" he said as she shook her head.
"No it isn't, ah never got to tell him ah'm sorry or say that ah love him and the last thing ah said to him was to practically get out for something he couldn't control." She said as she broke down in her brother's arms.
(Tartarus )
Kevin was panting as his back was against a wall, in his hands was his sword as the monsters slowly approached him, around him laid dozens of the infernal creatures dead but there was always more. He was heavily wounded as blood poured from multiple lacerations to his body, He was panting hard as the blood moon above showered the area in a dark red glow, he was starving, dehydrated and exhausted as he hadn't had a moment to relax since he arrived.
The first creature kept forward but Kevin cut it down before killing another but as he did more and more pounced until he had his shoulder bitten into by the massive mutated Wolf causing him to cry out in pain as his armour shattered in its jaws along with his shoulder blade, this causes him to drop his sword but he quickly drew his pistol and aimed it into his shoulder and fired, causing the light blue beam to slice through his shoulder and into the monster's head, causing it to detach and fall, unfortunately Kevin fell to his knees from pain and exhaustion as the beast cackled evily before slowly approaching. Kevin didn't have the energy to fight anymore as he could only watch them approach but he was caught off guard when a massive red human woman with pointed ears and a pair of horns in heavily plate landed in front of him with a sadistic looking steel mace, she gave him a concerned look before she at the beasts and crushed them beneath her weapon. When the beasts were dead, she looked back to see Kevin grabbing his sword and slowly pulling himself to his feet and pointed the blade at her.
"I mean you no harm little one" she said as she gently brushed the sword away "I have come to help" she stated as she smiled, revealing her massive canines before wrapping a arm around him."come let's go some where safe" she said much to Kevin's disapproval, she picked him up and walked off with him, At some point Kevin managed to black out.
When Kevin came to, he found himself on a massive bed, his armour was replaced with a large amount of bandages as incense burned, filling the air with a soft smell of vanilla as Kevin pulled himself from the bed only to collapse to the floor was a grunt, this awoke the second occupant of the bed which Kevin failed to notice before he felt himself get lifted back into the bed. "You should not be moving in your condition" she said as she sat up and looked at him worried.
"Why are you helping me?" He asked as she smiled.
"I wanted a friend, you see I'm a Red Oni, we enjoy having friends but we are also really scary" she said with a sigh.
"You only looked scary when you grinned at me with your massive canines" he said as she chuckled before slipping out of the bed to show she was naked, which didn't really phase him.
"What no blushing or anything? Am I that bad looking?" She asked a little hurt as Kevin shook his head.
"My previous room mate prefered to walk around in her birthday suit" he said as she smiled before pulling on a robe then left the room. When she was gone, Kevin looked down it his bandaged form and sighed before looking out the window to see the world outside in a soft silver glow from the full moon high in the sky, but in the distance Kevin could see a city. His attention was gained as the Red Oni returned with a a large bottle and two cups, she noticed him looking outside and smiled.
"Welcome to Tartarus" she said pouring him a cup full of the clear liquid before handing it to him, which he accepted before sipping and nearly spitting the liquid making her chuckle "Never had Sake before?" She asked as she downed her own cup.
"Cant say I have, hey what do I even call you?" He asked her.
"Ummm I don't know, how about Red" she shrugged as he nodded.
"That works my name is Kevin, hey how long was I out anyway?" He asked as she looked nervous.
"About a month, seeing your body was extremely damaged and you lost a lot of blood" she said.
"Okay next question, where did you find a donar?" He asked as she rubbed the back of her head.
"Those demon wolves had the same blood as you so yea...." She said as Kevin looked shocked before she offered him a hand mirror which he gave a confused look. "Look" she said as he did before freezing, his eyes were blood red and slitted.
"What the fuck?" He said topping the mirror.
"It was the only way to save you" she said as he looked at her again.
"Why did you save me?" He asked angrily.
"Because you have the will to escape this hell" she shouted before looking down. "And I want you to be free" she said as he sighed.
"Okay, I'm sorry" he said as she pulled him into a hug.
"It's fine but your gonna have to prepare, you'll have to find the keeper and defeat him but this is no small task and not to mention you'll have to do this for each level your on" she said letting him go.
"Level?" He asked.
"Yes there are many levels of Tartarus and each level has stronger and stronger monsters" she said as he nodded "but for now we drink" she said smirking as he chuckled before sipping his drink.
(10 years later)
Sunset Shimmer was with Twilight Sparkles as they looked through a range of scrolls abou portals and the like, the two young Alicorns were reading through the books and scrolls frantically to find something to help them to help them retake Canterlot from the Caribou invaders.
Twilight's older brother, Captain Shining Armour was against the door, with about a dozen of Twilight's and Sunset's personal guard against the door. "Here, a creature of war..... Its a myth but hopefully it isn't friction " Sunset said.
"Okay let's begin the summoning" Twilight said as the two began the ritual as the Caribou slammed on the door, try in to gain entrance.
"I hope this works" Sunset said as Twilight nodded before a burning portal formed in front of them.
(Tartarus)
Kevin was sitting in an old Cathedral, he was wearing demon steel plate armour on his chest and legs with chain mail underneath, his left arm was covered in tattoos which he received from defeating each keeper, he wore a black hooded leather coat that covered his arms and kept him warm in the frozen sections of the demonic world, around his waist was a belt which contained multiple gemstones, each containing raw magic which thanks to Kevin's evil blood, he could use. Sheathed on his back was a sword which the hilt was molded from the melted down horns of Tirak and Sombra when he encountered them in their domain, which disappointed Kevin as the two keepers were already weakened so he didn't get a fight. Slung around his shoulder was a satchel of infinite capacity, that he stole from the king of the Rats after he beheaded him, the satchel continue hundreds of magic items inside of it, on his belt was a skull attached to a chain, this Skull was named Sir Leonard the Second and was a Sin Eater, Leo was strangely enough, a human skull and loved cracking jokes about being a skull. Strapped to Kevin's back was a sword made of Nymph metal and star metal that he claimed from another keeper, he also had a multitude of throwing knifes and firebombs.
To his side was Red, she was in her plated armour as she sipped her Sake, apparently her bottle contained an infinite supply due to a powerful enchantment from before she arrived, and that Red Oni can survive on the alcohol alone for centuries. Her 'club' as she pointed out to Kevin, after he made the mistake of call in it a Mace, belonged to her mother, who got it from hers and so one and it was similar to his Nymph and star metal sword.
The three had been travelling together for what has felt like centuries, which thanks to the fact that you don't age in Tartarus, they looked the same as they did so long ago, they had shared many moments, like getting drunk, slaying monsters and rutting when they felt like it, which didn't phase Kevin in the slightest, as Red was pretty attractive.... when you get passed the fact that she is what, 9 foot tall and full muscle, with a bust twice the size of his head.
Kevin leaned back as he reached into his satchel and willed a Wandering Mango before pulling out the orange fruit, which had five tentacles wiggling about trying to escape before Kevin used a knife to peel it. The fruit was the most readily available food source and did wonders as It not only herbivores but also carnivores, the species that enjoyed the fruit the most however was the Succuponies, except they didn't eat them.
The two were relaxed in the Cathedral when the sound of electrical crackling caught their attention, allowing the Fruit to bite Kevin and run away squeaking "fucking little shit" he grumbled before looking to see a portal opening, he then looked to Red, who was now standing with her weapon drawn, she gave Kevin a nod as he pulled up his hood and cowl before they started approaching the vortex when they heard a voice call out.
"Please, we need your help in defending our capital of Canterlot" the voice begged as the two looked at each other before entering the portal.
(Canterlot Archive)
Twilight finished her message moments before two figures came through, one was a tall red ogre, which she recognized as a Red Oni, known for their fondness of Sake and compassion to friends, while the other was roughly 6 foot 5, hooded and armoured but the most disturbing thing was that it gave off a demonic presence and its red slitted eyes were unnerving, Sunset squeaked in shock, loosing her concentration and caused the portal to close, just as it did, the door burst open to show a large group of armoured Caribou. "Princesses, surrender now and you shall only be shared among our nobles" the commander said gaining the princesses' attention, moments before a knife impaled itself between his eyes and Twilight was gently shoved aside, same as Sunset as the two new figures approached the Caribou.
"Demon!" One of the Caribou screamed out in fear as majority ran away in fear while the remaining held strong, moments before the Demon raised its hand, while its other hand moved to a crimson gem on its left hip, said gem began to glow before the Demon's right hand spewed blue flames like a dragons breath, incinerating the deer in a instant, but the most disturbing thing was, on its tattooed left arm was a arm band which was a cream colour, lightly splattered red from blood as it contained a bunch of cutie marks of ponies that she was friends with, Shining noticed this also and instantly dropped his sword and jaw in shock as the two figures left the room, the guards and princesses looked to the king of the Crystal Empire worried.
"Brother? What's wrong?" Twilight asked as Shining was in complete shock, "Shining!" She shouted snapping him out if his shock, "what's wrong?" She asked again.
"I just saw a ghost" he said before fainting.
"Captain Storm Shield, please watch over my brother with your men while Sunset and myself see to this demon" Twilight said and before the guards could say anything, the two Princesses were out the door and after the Demon. Which they soon caught up to as it incinerated a large group of Caribou, who were attack a pair of maids, but what shocked the Alicorns was that he drew a Red vial from his satchel and gave it to the wounded mares, healing them.
"Thank you" one said before looking up at his red eyes and started crawling backwards.
"No worries, no hide somewhere safe" he ordered causing the two to nod and run away.
"What kind of Demon not only heals a wounded pony but also lets her go?" Asked Sunset as she approached, ignoring Twilight's disapproval.
"One that does not desire to murder the innocent" he said looking at the fire princess, causing her to freeze under his gaze. "Besides why have you followed me, it is dangerous for you both" he said.
"We wanted to make sure you didn't hurt anypony" said Twilight as she warily approached.
"Well if they threaten my homeland then they are forfeit" he said as he started walking with the Red Oni.
"But they didn't threaten Tartarus" said Sunset making the Demon chuckle.
"I'm not from Tartarus, I grew up here in Equestria" he said as they arrived at a large set of doors, which led to the throne room. "Red in 3 minutes bust through this door" he said.
"What are you thinking?" She asked him.
"Scaring the fuck out of everything in the room" he chuckled as the Ogre nodded before he moved his hand over a green gem, causing it to glow before he vanished into thin air.
(AppleJack 5 minutes earlier)
The Elements of Harmony excluding Twilight, where standing next to the throne with Discord and Eris, where Celestia sat with her sister Luna and their Neice Queen Cadence of the Crystal Empire, holding her goal in her arms, in front of them was a large group of guards, and before them were the elite Caribou along with King Daine himself who had a large smile across his face. "Just surrender Princesses, and save more lives" he said as Celestia sighed but before she could say anything the throne room doors burst open and a group of Twenty Caribou ran in before they barred the door. "What is the meaning of this!?" Daine roared as one of the Deers walked forward. "Where are the princesses?" He asked.
"Dead sir, the stupid mares summoned a Demon from Tartarus and it incinerated the entire room, its chasing us right now" he said as all the ponies eyes widened at the news of their fallen friends and a demon.
"Alright hold the Line, we shall slay this demon in a show of power, now where is it" he asked.
"It was right behind us" he said moments before the sky light shattered an a hooded figure landed on top of the Caribou soldier, crushing him.
"I'm right here" it said, the voice caught Applenack off guard as it was so familiar.
"Big mistake demon" he chuckled before charging dark magic from his horns and blasted It at said Demon, only for him to raise a skull on a chain, which ate it before belching, causing Eris and Pinkie to fall over laughing, But Everypony else looked horrified at the living skull.
"Shall we end this?" It asked as it drew one no it's swords, the hilt remind AppleJack of Tirak's horns while the blade was the same colour as Sombra's horn.
"I will take your head" Daine roared and charged, only for the Demon to sidestep him and slice the back of his legs. "Ahhh what? No mortal weapon can pierce my flesh" he cried as the Demon chuckled.
"I'm not a mortal any more and neither are my weapons" he said as Diane blasted him with magic, only for it to be absorbed into the Demon's sword moments before it was launched back at him, sending him back.
"Kill him!" Daine ordered as he men charged, moments before the throne room doors were blown open and a Red Oni charged in and slammed the Caribou into the ground.
"You have lost Caribou, you shall surrender to the crown or hang" the Demon said placing its boot on his chest and forced him down, his sword hovered inches from his neck.
"What sort of Demon is this Sister?" Asked Princess Luna to her older Sister, who was silent as she watched the Demon, the look wasn't driven by fear or hate, but sadness. "Sister?" Luna asked.
"Look!" Shouted Rainbow Dash as Sunset and Twilight ran passed the Ogre and to the throne.
"Your alive!... but how?" Asked Rarity.
"The demon protected us" Twilight said before a scream was heard, gaining their attention as they looked to the Demon incinerate Daine. When Daine was nothib more then ash, the two new arrivals turned towards the throne, causing the guard to tense as the demon sheathed his weapon.
"Seize him!" Roared Celestia as the guards charged only to be send back by a powerful gust of wind.
"I thought you would be more accepting of your Nephew" the Demon stated as all the gems on its belt glowed before a portal opened up behind him and the Ogre. As he turned to leave, Celestia launched herself forward only to freeze in mid air, her wings began flapping "it was stupid to fly at someone who could control wind" he said before the two moved through the portal before he turned to Celestia and removed his hood and cowl to show his flat muzzle, small eyes, small ears, Brown and grey mane and brown and grey beard, his face was scarred as he released Celestia, who simply stood their shocked before the portal closed.
"What are you orders princess?" A guard ordered just as Shining, Storm Shield and a large group of Veteran guards burst in.
"Princess! Was it him?" Asked Shining as she simply nodded. "Where Is he?" He asked.
"I drove him away" she said before dropping to her knees as tears filled her eyes.
"Twilight Sparkles" Luna said looking to Twilight. "Find the Demon and purify him with the Elements" she said as Twilight nodded.
(Castle of the Two Sisters)
As the portal closed, the stones on Kevin's belt diminished before he collapsed to his knees panting "Kevin are you okay?" Red asked as she rubbed his back, she sighed as she heard him sob softly, "hey come here" she said lifting his upped body up and held him against her "I'm here" she said as she stroked his hair gently.
"Did you see their faces?" He asked as his voice cracked "the feared me..... AJ. ..... was terrified" he said as he was held against her chest as she rocks back and forth, she was used to him breaking down after combat as Kevin hated killing but it was the only way to survive in Tartarus.
"Hey its okay, let's just give it time and I'm sure they will lighten up" Red said as she rubbed his back.
"But.... but they had her.... she was among them..... the creature that stole me from my mother...... " as he was talking, black energy was forming around his hands "how dare Celestia have her so close to her, like a friend.... "he growled before Red slapped him.
"No malicious thoughts, don't let the Demon out" she said before pull in him against her again as he nodded. "No rest, you use too much energy" she said before he nodded and passed out in her arms, she gave him a small kiss before she created a fire and set up their bed rolls and laid him down as she took the first shift.
(Canterlot)
Luna was seated in her room, her legs crossed and her eyes closed as she reached out to find the Demon, she knew it would be dangerous to enter his mind but after what Celestia had told her about her Nephew, Luna believed that he could be saved from the darkness, her search was inturrupted when she sensed a powerful affliction in somepony's Dreams, so she dropped the search and reached out to the dream before entering, when she did however, she was created by a barren waste under a blood moon that drenched the land in a Blood red Hue, the sound of fighting could be heard below as she looked down to see the Demon from earlier fighting monsters, except he was in Equestrian Guard armour, he was badly wounded and cornered, the wolf demons slowly approached him as he stood fast. As the wolves charged, she froze the dream causing the Demon to look around confused before she Descended "be at ease Kevin, we mean no hard" she said landing in front of him before looking around.
"What are you doing here?" He growled.
"We felt a powerful Afliction so we came to quench it to allow for a peaceful sleep, but we didn't know that.... it would be a memory and that it would be so horrific" she said as she looked around.
"Yes this was just be for I became a demon" he said sitting against the wall.
"We see, we desire to talk to you, nephew" she said as he cocked an eyebrow.
"Nephew?" He asked as she nodded.
"Yes, you are our sister's, Princess Celestia's, Nephew so that means you are ours also" she said sort in in front of him before frowning when she looks into his red eyes. "You have seen many horrible things.... haven't you?" She asked as he sighed.
"And done many Horrible things" he sighed again.
"Yes and we can tell that you just wanted to see your family again and Celestia's actions were just, but we wish to give you a soulution" she said smiling as she grabbed his hands.
"Oh?" He asked.
"Yes, you see we became corrupted and wer banished to the moon for a thousand years, and we don't want that to happen to you as from what oir sister has said.... you are a better Nephew them BlueBlood, so we ask you if you would allow the Elements of Harmony to be used on you to turn you back to normal" she said.
"You understand that with out that blood I will die" he said as she froze.
"Explain" she asked.
"I got a transfusion from demons blood, my body permanently changed to a demon so if you blast me with your Elements ... I'll die" he said as she rubbed her chin.
"That is troublesome," she said.
"I am not evil, I hate killing intelligent creatures, so I won't kill any one.... I just want to be able to relax in a warm bed with out the risk of being eaten or murdered for once" he sighed as Luna nodded.
"We understand and we shall talk to our Sister and then we shall come to the Castle of the Two Sisters at noon tomorrow" she said.
"I don't know where that is" he said.
"Oh we have pinpointed your location and that is were you are" she said as he nodded. "We can not wait to meet you in pony" she said before vanishing.
"The fuck just happened?" He asked
Kevin awoke with a yawn as he looked next to him to find Red cuddled up to his body making him smile as he slipped out of her grasp before looking a the sun "nearly noon" he muttered as he pulled a Pauldron which was shaped like a skull and attached it to his right arm before attaching matching armour to his right arm, the armour was a dark grey. Kevin then pulled out a gauntlet and put it on his left hand and smiled at the gift from the Spider Queen. He pulled out a bottle of water and sipped it as he watched the forest, he could sense all the creatures within a mile of himself, when he first obtained this ability, hen couldn't control it and it led to him suffering from migraines. "A pack of Manticores to the north, a large group of Timberwolves to the north west west, Dragon to the south and Hydra due east" he muttered before pulling out a small black Apple from his bag and took a hesitant bite before nodding at the taste of lime "Demon Apples, they can have any flavour" he muttered with a smile as he ate. He scratched his chin with the clawed gauntlet on his right hand "shit I need to shave" he muttered.
He continued to make his observations and enjoy the sun for the first time in a very long time before he ended up sighing as he remembered the day before "she will be here soon" he said as he suddenly sensed an incoming teleport, so he pulled up his hood and cowl before leaning against the door as Celestia, Luna, Candece, Applejack and the other mares appeared with Shining, Storm and a white unicorn stallion with a yellow mane.
The group looked at around, none bothering to look up at where Kevin was on a balcony. "Where is he Luna?" Asked Celestia but before she could answer, Kevin dropped down and landed quietly on the steps.
"Right here" he said.
"There he is Auntie Blast Him!" Cried the white stallion.
"BlueBlood, you shall hold your tongue" Luna growled as the stallion glared at her as Celestia stepped forward moments before a sword materialized in her hand but before she could do anything, Kevin's sword was in inch from her throat. "Tia! You promised to give him a chance" Luna said.
"Luna he is just a Demon inhabiting Kevin's form..... Girls Now!" She said side stepping as as the girls blasted Kevin in the chest with a rainbow, said rainbow pushed Kevin back as the ground cracked under his feet but when the smoke cleared, Kevin looked up undamaged "impossible, no evil being would be able to survive that" she said shocked as Luna growled before flying over to Kevin and smiling sadly at him. "Luna! get away from that thing!"
"ENOUGH!" Luna roared at her sister causing all the ponies to step back "you bucking promised me, you promised me that you would not try to hurt him, and what did you do?" She asked as Celestia's ears flattened "WHAT DID YOU JUST DO!" she roared making Celestia flinch.
"I ordered his distruction" she said as she looked down.
"Exactly, since I came back I have trusted your ludicrous decisions with Equestria's safety" Luna growled, her wings and coat darkening slightly.
"What Ludicrous Decisions, I have done no such thing" Celestia exclaimed.
"No? So tell me, did you assist in the recapture of the bugbear?" She asked as Celestia shook her head "did you destroy the abomination like I suggested?" She asked as Celestia tried to say something "Shut the Buck up, you created it to be used against the Griffin Empire, now.... did you assist in the recapture of Discord?" She asked as Celestia shook her head "did you assist in place an ancient Alicorn Artifact in the Royal Vault instead of placing it in a museum?" She asked and got the same answer "did you help with Trixie's corruption? Or help with the Crystal Empire instead of letting your student deal with it?"
"No but th...." She tried to say but Luna inturrupted her.
"SILENCE!, now let's get to the next part, how come you gave your faith to Cadence when she wanted to make peace of the Changelings after the Royal wedding, or when Sunset wanted to reform Trixie or Twilight with Starlight Glimmer?" She asked.
"But those turned out alright" Celestia said.
"And what about trusting Discord? Am I so meaningless to you that you would trust a literal Chaos God Instead of your Own Blood!?" Luna responded, her voice was close to a growl.
"Last time I trusted you, you let Nightmare to consume you" Celestia said as all the ponies gasped.
"I only did that to say your life" Luna said her voice dripping with venom. "Because you didn't want to Harm your ex lover, you or Sombra defeat you, and then instead of consulting me and helping me, you started blaming me for everything wrong" Luna growled as her wings flared.
"No that's because you wanted Eternal Night" Twilight said.
"And who told you that?" She asked.
"The book of prophecies" she said.
"The same book Celestia wrote to protect her image, I had to watch for 1000 years as you let your 'beloved' subject hunt down everything even related to me or dark magic, the bat pony race nearly went EXTINCT BECAUSE YOU YOU!" Luna roared, causing the earth around them to shake. She took a moment before regaining her composure as her coat and wings returned to their normal wings "we don't care about your pathetic Nephew Blue Blood, I will show my new Nephew, the same pony that not only sacrificed everything to save Equestria when you could have I a simple wave of you hand, but saved use from becoming a bucking Deer's buck toy. So with that, I am leaving Canterlot to Live with my Nephew and do what you never did for me, give him the introduction to Equestria and show him compassion," she finished as Celestia and the rest of the ponies stood there shocked. "If you have no business here then begone" Luna growled as Celestia, Cadence, Shining and BlueBlood vanished in a flash of light. When they were gone, Luna sighed "that felt good to get off my chest" she said before looking at the remaining mares "why are you still here?" She growled.
"I wish to study it and its things" Twilight said as Luna glared at her.
"You can't and I don't really like being poked and prodded or my stuff getting touched by people I dont know" he said.
"Pony" the pink one said.
"Shut the fuck up, don't interrupt me, all my is millennia old, older then your princesses, fuck so am I now" he said as Red dropped down behind him and petted his head.
"How can that be?" Asked Luna asked.
"Time works.... differently in Tartarus, time speeds up in there the longer it goes with out a breach as a Punishment measure, but you the days are normal length, like it is a day there and a second out here, I think my total time there was somewhere in the tens of thousands" he shrugged off as the ponies looked at him shocked.
"How can somepony last that long with out feeling alone and scared?" Rarity asked.
"Well I wasn't alone, and my fear was the first thing to die in that place"he said as Red handed him a cup which he smiled pulled down his cowl and sipped it.
"So you were with your companion during the time, did you two ever? You know?" Asked Dash.
"Rainbow Dash!" Said Twilight as Red and Kevin chuckled.
"Quite regularly actually" Red said.
"What are those gems around your waist?" Sunset asked him as she pointed to the 30 stones on his waist.
"These are the gems of creation, they range from basic elements to Gravity itself and these allow me to manipulate the elements in there purest form" he said.
"Oh and how does this gravity one work?" Asked Dash as she floated in mid air to keep herself off the ground as he smirked, moved his hand to the clear stone, which glowed before he simply flicked his wrist and Dash stated to fly up for a second before he changed it back to normal and Dash face planted on the ground.
"Sorry, i can also use it for projectiles" he said as he grabbed a small pebble, took aim at a tree before changed the stones Gravitational pull to the tree to be 20 times stronger then Equis' before throwing it with in human strength, leaving the tree as a small creator before deactivating the gem.
"I will confiscate them off you for scientific purposes" twilight said before he glared at her.
"Touch any of my things and I shall leave you in Tartarus, do I make myself clear?" He said as she got a cock grin.
"And how will you do that?" She asked cockily.
"Twilight don't" said the Fluttershy said.
"Two even I'm not that dumb" Dash said moments before a massive portal formed behind the Violet Alicorn.
"You have two choices, apologize and never touch my things, or spend eternity in hell" he said with a cold emotionless tone.
"I'm sorry please" she said looking at the portal before it collapsed.
"Now any other Questions?" He asked looking around and only found AN hokding her hand up. "Yes?"
"Do ya hate me?" She asked as Everypony look at her confused.
"No, you were stricken with grief.... and everything you said was true" he sighed.
"But If ah didn't then ya never would have been trapped" she said walking up to him.
"But then my dear sister, Equestria would have surely fallen" he said as all the ponies but AN gasped as she suddenly wrapped him in a hug.
"Ah'm so sorry" she said crying softly as he stroked her back gently.
"Its alright" he said smiling softly as he looked at the confused ponies "when I was five, I was stolen from my mothe and brothers by Eris and dumped in Ewuestria, then I was adopted by the Apple Family when Mac was two years old" he said as they nodded and Luna growled.
"And Tia simply forgave her like nothing happened" she growled before sighing.
"I think it would be best if you lot left" Kevin said to the Elements and Sunset and Storm.
"What why?" Asked Twilight.
"I have construction to do and I don't need to be distracted" he said.
"We can help" AppleJack said.
"No, I can handle it" he said standing he then turned and entered the castle with Red and Luna as the other ponies vanished in a flash of light.
(3 months later)
The castle of the Two Sisters had been rebuilt, Dozens of Threasal Guards patrolled the grounds and walls along with Bat Pony maids, all has followed Luna from Canterlot. The surrounding forest had been cleared by Kevin with in hours and a small village was set up by the leader of Luna's guard, the monsters and creatures avoided the place after Kevin set up wards around the woods.
During the night, Luna would sit Kevin down in her new Study and go over everything that had happened when she arrived seven years prior, she talked about the Changelings setting up a truce with Equestria, the Griffin Empire pushing the Equestrian border, Tirak's invasion, Sombra's return and Starlight Glimmer's attack. All of which intrigued Kevin to no end, although as much as she asked him about his time in Tartarus, he would simply go quiet and say it doesn't matter.
During a particular morning, as Kevin sat perched on a balcony, he spotted a familiar Yellow filly with a red mane, by her side was a orange pegasus filly with purple hair, a black Pegasus colt, a white unicorn filly with a pink and purple mane, a white colt with brown patches on his form, a familiar Pink filly with a tiara, a silver filly with glasses and a white Pegasus filly with a dark brown mane. The group approached slowly, Kevin stepped down as his Hand moved over the clear gem as he alterned his gravity so he landed quietly behind the group.
"This is no place for Foals" he said with his hood and cowl down as they group yelped and turned before Kevin was tackled by the yellow filly "my how you have group AppleBloom" he chuckled.
"Ah ain't a Foal" she growled as she tried to pin him causing him to chuckle before he simply stood up and she hung from his arms "eep" she said.
"Your still my baby sister" he chuckled as she smiled and let go before hugging him.
"Ah know, ah'm happy to see ya" she said nuzzling him
"Same here.... AN know your here?" He asked as she froze and smiled sheepishly "really?" He asked.
"Ah wanted ta see ya" she said as he patted her before looking at the pink filly. "Oh Kevin this is...." She was saying before Kevin interrupted.
"My Goddaughter Diamond Tiara" he said as she waved at him.
"Your goddaughter?" AppleBloom asked.
"Her father was one of my bestfriends" he said as he smiled sadly.
"Was?" Bloom asked.
"Things change.... anyway, who are the rest of your friends?" He asked.
"Oh um this is Scootaloo" Bloom said pointing to the Orange Pegasus, "Sweetie Belle" the White Unicorn, "Pipsqueak" the White spotted earth pony, "Rumble" the black Pegasus, "Frost" the white pegasus, "and Silver Spoon" the silver earth pony.
"Nice to meet you lot" he said as the greeted him. "As much as I hate to do this but I reckon you lot better leave before AJ Flips" he said.
"Can you come back to Ponyville?" Diamond asked.
"I doubt many people would be happy to see me" he said.
"Please just for the day" Scootaloo asked as he sighed.
"Fine" he said before his gems glowed and he opened a portal "shall we" he said as he pulled up his hood and cowl out of habit and let the teenage ponies through before he checked his armour and walked through.
(Ponyville, SugerCube Corner)
Filthy was sipping his mornin coffee happily, he had recently divorced his wife after he discovered her abusing their daughter physically, her father Spoilt Rotten was furious but was arrested shortly after when his daughter tried to make a deal and reveal that he was a wanted Drug Lord, the two would spend a very long time in prison. Filthy hummed softly as he read the paper from a few months back and smiled "Equestrian Hero Returns! Luna Abandons her Princesshood!" The title said as he looked at the drawing of his colthood friend Kevin, the paper described him as a demon but to be honest, with Discord and Eris running around causing mayhem, a demon that is Protecting Equestria is a good thing, it was a bonus that it was Filthy's first friend.
Filthy leaned back in the booth before hearing a loud commotion outside, causing him to be up and walk out with his coffee in hand to see the infamous Cutie Mark Crusaders step out of a Burning Portal 'what have they done now?' He thought before a tall hooded figure followed them out, its red eyes scanned the crowd as the local scaredy cats, Roseluck, Daisy and Lily, Fainted. The figure sighed and shook his head before pulling down his cowl and hood as Filthy smiled to see it was Kevin, but his smile faded when he noticed the scars and nervous look on his face as Everypony looked at him.
"I'm out" he said as he tried to leave back through his portal before the Cutie Mark Crusaders grabbed him and literally dragged him in SugerCube Corner as the portal closed.

Chapter 3 - Demon Vs the Unleashed Nightmare
Kevin was sitting in the booth as both ways to slide out were blocked by the fillies and Colts, Everypony in the building was watching him, he hadn't felt so exposed since he was in the forest of eyes, the thought of that accursed place made him shiver.
"Are ya cold Kev?" AppleBloom asked noticing his shiver.
"What? Um no.... no just a bad memory" he said with a sigh as she smiled at him lovingly before hugging him again. The sudden movement caused him to flinch, he found his hand moving to one of his gems instinctively before he relaxed and accepted the hug, this would be a problem if not dealt with soon he thought as the door opened to show a familiar pink Mare with a pink mane of two different tones, she scanned the bakery before her eyes landed on Kevin in which she smiled and approached and wrapped him in a hug over the table.
"Hey Cherrilee" he said smiling.
"Hey Kevin, damn I haven't seen you since you were 17, now look at you" she said before moving to sit next to him as the Fillies and Colts moved to allow this.
"So what are you up to recently?" He asked her as she shrugged.
"Grading papers" she said as Kevin Mock gasped.
"Coming from the mare that hated school" he said as she pouted and the younger ponies giggled before running off.
"Things change" she said as he sighed and nodded.
"That's an understatement" he chuckled as Filthy took his other side "oh hello, I don't be.... Richey?" He said as his eyes widened to see his slackass best friend all cleaned up and in a business suit.
He simply chuckled "I knew you would have this reaction " he laughed as Kevin burried his fax in his hands.
"Cherri is a Teacher, Your a buisness man.... what's next Cup and Carrot are married?" He asked.
"With two foals" said a familiar voice causing him to look up to see the Blue mare smiling at him "it's good to see you Kevin" she said.
"Good to see you too Cup" he said as she pulled a notepad.
"Would you three like anything?" She asked.
"Yes coffee please" Cherri asked and Filthy agreed.
"Chocolate shake please" Kevin asked as Cup nodded before leaving to get the orders. "So what's new in town? " he asked.
"Um Snow has moved back here with her daughter Frost" Cherri said as Kevin sighed, "hey be happy, she wants to make up for what she did" she said as Kevin nodded before the door exploded open as a Guard landed on his back groaning. As he was getting up a Black stallion entered and pushed him back down, the stallion was in dark blue leather armour, a cloak with a creseant moon on it, in his hand was a sword as he smirked.
"Your blood will please the nightmare" he said as he was about to impale the Guard but his wris was grabbed causing him to turn and look only for his pupils to shrink at Kevin holding him, his green eyes looking into Kevin's red eyes. "Demon" he whimpered before Kevin effortlessly threw him out the door. He turned his head to the wounded guard before moving his hand to a goal he on his belt and then began healing the Guard as Cup walked out.
"What the Buck happened?" She asked as Kevin walked over, grabbed his milkshake, placed a ruby on the tray before walking out the hole in the building moments before it began rebuilding itself.
As Kevin was outside, he saw a large group of identically coloured ponies looking st him 'must be a disguise spell to work as a uniform' he thought as he held his milkshake with his left hand and sipped it.
"Kill it, its blood is needed for the ritual" one said as it spread its Pegasus wings, the group yelled as they charged while Kevin moved his hand to a green gen that had dark green lines inside is it cooling and wriggling causing it to glow.
Just as they were about to reach him, vines burst from beneath them, coiled around their bodies and weapons. They group struggled until the leader sliced the vines. When they were severed the group attacked but Kevin simply sidestepped them as they were slow for him.
"Stop dodging" growled a unicorn before Kevin grabbed his horn and threw him into one of his comrades as Kevin activated a yellow stone before shocking a part of the group, stunning them, leaving three remaining, all the whole Kevin was sipping his drink.
"We have to fall back" one said as the group leader growled and nodded before they turned and ran but not before Kevin surrounded one of his knives in magix and flung it into the Leader's shoulder before they vanished in a flash of light just before the Elements of Harmony arrived as Kevin bound the stunned cultists.
"Took you lot long enough" he said finishing his drink as he noticed the ponies watching with their jaws hanging "What?" He asked.
"You just defeated nightmare moon's cultists like they were nothing" said a Guard as he simply shrugged before returning to the bakery, ignoring the violet Alicorn's questions but just before he reached the door he was surrounded in a purple aura before he was thrown into the ground nearby, a large collective of gasps were heard as Kevin pushed himself off the ground.
"Your too dangerous to have in Ponyville..... So get out before i force you out" Twilight said as Kevin climbed to his feet, he took a step forward as she blasted him but he simply swatted it away, sending the magical beam into a far off hill, this simple act caused the guards to drop their weapons.
"What have I done..... what have I fucking done to make me a threat to ponies? Huh?" He asked.
"You denied the surrender of your Equipment and your a demon" she said making Kevin growl.
"Right so your a scientific glutton and your racist" he said stepping forward.
"I AM NOT!" she roared in her royal Canterlot voice, which didn't faze Kevin.
"Oh I'm sorry, you lust for information and would rather kiss the cake filled ass of your Princess rather then care for you comrades or a person's well-being or feelings, from what I have been told, you cursed this entire town because you wanted to follow her commands instead of doing what was right, you ignore the creature you call your friend, oh wait no you call him your Assistant" he growled as she took a step back.
"H-how d-did you...." she asked
"How did I know? I have been told by AJ when she visited, or Luna you don't deserve the title of Princess of Friendship as a creature returns from a ten thousand year hell, which here was a decade, because he did the noble thing and saved this world. And what did he ask for in return, Money? Mares? Land? Power? No as he already has all of that..... no he wanted to fucking see his fucking Family again" Kevin growled taking another step, the gems around his waist gave off a soft glow.
"But I offered your friendship when I met you?" She said quietly.
"Oh? Did you now? All I remember is you threatening me, blasting me with your magical rainbow and wanting to steal my shit, is that really the fucking price of Friendship in this age? If so, then I'd rather go back to Tartarus, there its simple, " he said as she backed against a wall as he was continued to approach.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to do that" she said. "Can you forgive me?" She asked as Everypony looked at the scene with baited breath.
"No" he said before ripping open a portal and leaving, when the portal closed the street was filled with complete silence save for a crying violet Alicorn.
(Deep within the Everfree)
A loud pop was heard as the three cultists fell against the ground panting, they had made it back to the ruined Temple where their cult resided, the three were greeted by their cult leader, who gave them a concerned look. "Where are the rest of you?" She asked.
"A..... a demon.... in Ponyville..... he is ...... powerful" the Pegasus panted as the knife stuck out of his back, the leader pulled I out with her magic and gasped.
"This has enough magical energy in it to power the ritual" she said as a group of cultists helped the three exhausted ponies as the leader moved to the centre of the temple, in the middle of a massive pentagram, in each corner was a magical item, ranging from the Alicorn Amulet to a few of Luna's feathers. The leader knelt down as they cult began chanting before she impaled the knife into the ground, causing the pentagram to glow brightly.
Kevin was watching from the top of the Temple, he had stripped himself of his weapons, cloak, armour and his Arm band as he was in a loose white top, tracksuit pants and his belt as he watched, his bag was left at the castle of the Two Sisters with Red.
As the ceremony was underway, the cult leader collapsed to her knees as she felt her life force being ripped from her body, blood dripped from her face as she gagged on the metallic taste in her mouth, she felt a powerful magical energy forcing her body to alter as she felt her body grow from 5"3 to 11" , her clothes tore before reforming into midnight blue armour, her back violently sprouted bone wings before flesh and muscle encased it and Feathers painfully sprouted. Her teeth began to fall out, only to be replaced with a new set along with a pair of canines, her pelt changed from light purple to jet black and her yellow mane shifted to the colour of the night sky filled with stars. She had sacrificed herself so her god could take shape, it was incredibly painful but it would be worth It for the tyrant to be overthrown she thought as her eyes felt like they were on fire before they changed, leaving her remaining life force trapped in her own body as the Night Alicorn took control over her new body.
A dark blue glowing beam shot straight into the sky, pulling the moon over the sun, this didn't go unnoticed as Celestia gathered the Elements of Harmony to confront Luna.
Nightmare Moon climbed to her feet and crackles victoriously as she inspected herself until a loud thud was produced behind her, causing her to turn and see Kevin stand up straight before looking at her. "You must be the Demon of Ponyville, I must thank you for helping me, but now I must destroy you to Protect my... ahhhh" she was saying before she was forced to dive away as a bean of energy sliced through the air where she had just stood before it eviscerated a tree behind her. When she looked back at Kevin, he wasn't there as he appeared above her and slammed her into the ground with a rough kick, making her grunt as she bounced off the ground before she received a kick to her side, sending her away into a tree.
"Why do all of you lot love monolouging" he asked as she blasted him with her magic, the attack actually hurting him as he slammed into the temple wall, collapsing it before simply crawling out of it.
"You will pay for you inculences worm" she growled as she formed a massive scythe in her hands before charging with it raised as Kevin moved his hand to the brown stone in his belt before creating a stone dome around him, which she simply sliced in half but she was shocked and confused to see it empty until she was kicked in the back sending her forward before she slashed across Kevin's chest with her scythe before she was hit with a pulse of Leigh magic from him.
He moved back before cracking his shoulders as she wiped a small bit of blood from her muzzle "that's it worm, you shall now pay dearly" she growled as her body glowed, her mane and tail grew longer as her fingers grew clawed, her teeth sharpened and her eyes glowed along with her horn curving slightly. She smirked sadisticly as a loud pop was heard making Kevin look to see the Elements of Harmony, Eris, Discord, Celestia, Luna, Cadence, Shining and Sunset all watching before Kevin was hit in the chest by a incredibly powerful spell, sending him flying back and dislodging his belt, as it landed not far from Nightmare, causing her to laugh and go to pick it up.
"Oh no, now she will be unstoppable" Celestia said as her ears flattened along with Everypony else Nightmare picks it up when instantly her mane and tail fell flat against her body.
"What? This is simply multiple inhibitors and elemental focusing gems" she said before she realised what she just said and dropped the belt, a massive energy source could be felt approaching causing her to turn only to see Kevin slowly walking out of the tree line, his wounds still bleeding but his body was surrounded in a burning reddish pink aura and his eyes literally glowed a deep red, a smirk was across his face as Nightmare blasted him with a powerful attack spell, which simply shattered against the raw magic aura around him as he raised his hands and lowered then, sending a massive wave of burning raw magic towards the Alicorn mare, who put up a barrier, that did little to Protect her from the powerful attack.
The ponies watched in shock as an unleashed Alicorn was trying her best to keep away from Kevin as he launched attacks or such power that would make Tirak green with envy as the attack tore through the forest and clouds although as it was about to hit the other Alicorns, chaos bring era and mane 6, I split and moved around them..
When the spoke cleared, Nightmare had returned to Her normal non unleashed formed as she panted, the entire area if the forest was simply ash as Kevin reattached his belt before walking over to Nightmare "Surrender?" He asked as she nodded before collapsing unconscious before he turned to look at the remaining ponies on a chunk of untouched forest "now you understand why I won give you my equipment, as it serves an important job" he said as Twilight nodded before he looked at Celestia "do you understand now that if I truly wanted to cause destruction to your nation, I would have already?" He asked as she nodded "good so are you going to reinstate my citizenship?" He asked as she shrugged.
"Um if you promise not to obliterate Equestria" she said.
"Sure, wasn't gonna anyway" he said before picking up Nightmare and putting her over his shoulder before opening a portal and walking through.
(Tartarus, 9 Equis years earlier)
Kevin was wandering through a level filled with huge craters of pure uncontrollable magic, this place was apparently in the no man's land of Tartarus where no Keeper or Tartarus king may enter, but it had recently been taken over by a insane Alicorn.
Kevin had a new set of armor, a new sword, his Bag of unlimited capacity, which the rat king gave him after Kevin cut off his head but he just put it back on, Red was currently back at the City or Rats as it was one of the major hubs of Tartarus. Kevin soon found the gold Alicorn with a red mane and tail, he was in black plate armour as he sipped the pour magic.
Kevin growled as he drew his sword and charged, but he was blown back by the Alicorn before a flurry of magical attacks connected with Kevin's chest causing him to fall to his knees. "You think that a puny little worm can kill me? Solaris the King of Equis" he roared out with laughter before approaching and grabbing Kevin by the back if his hair and hovering him over one of the craters "You shall be absorbed by the magic, it is said to be a painful process to be broken down..... So enjoy" he chuckled as he dropped Kevin into the largest one.
As his body was submerged he felt burning pain all over his body as he sank deeper, his eyes burnt and his flesh blistered as he sunk deeper, unable to move but suddenly it all stopped when Kevin found himself in a weird black void.
"Hello?" He asked as he looked around.
"Hello there, I wish to make a deal with you" a female voice asked as Kevin turned to see a light cream Alicorn with a red mane and tail.
"And why should I trust you?" He asked
"If you don't then you will die a slow and painful death and never see your family again." She said as Kevin looked down "and trust me, if I wanted you dead, I never would have guided the Red Oni to you are made those demons miss vital organs" she said as Kevin took a step back.
"What is this deal?" He asked.
"I shall make you able to protect those you care about ban in return you will be my Knight" she said as Kevin thought it over before taking a kneel in front of her "excellent choice my Knight, you shall make your Queen proud, now let me make you powerful" she said as her horn glowed and a scroll appeared with a quill as she wrote down something, before Kevin could as, he was yanked backwards.
He awoke in the bottom of the now empty crater causing him to look around and see there wasn't a way for it to escape. "How!" Roared Solaris as he kept down while Kevin got to his feet and looked at his hands as a pinkish red aura burned off his body. "What?!" Solaris asked before Kevin felt something invisible gently grip his wrists as he felt energy building in and around his hands. As this happened dark red energy burn from his hands as the Crazed Alicorn took a step back.
"Kill him and claim his sword" the Alicorn Queens voice whispered into his ear.
"Yes my Queen" he said as he raised his hands as the ground cracked around him before he pulled them down and a enormous wave of pure Magic erupted from him as the Crazed king tried to put up a shield but it shattered in seconds before he was consumed by the raw magic. All of Tartarus saw the massive beam of magic erupt skyward from the Neutral zone.
As the magic died down, all that was left of Solaris was his feathers, tail and sword which all seemed to be in a red aura moments before the tail and feathers were morphed into a belt and floated over to Kevin and attached itself to his waist as he felt his power vanish while an array of stones formed in the slots. Kevin's chest plate was ruined so he ripple it off along with his arm armour to show an Alicorn head now on his arm next to a coiled rat and over his heart was a small quail in a ink well which was on a gold and red trimmed shield.
Chapter 4 - Demon vs Bearer of Magic
Kevin was sitting in his room along with Red, Leo and the unconscious Nightmare Moon, Red was sitting next to the mare's sleeping form with a sad look upon her face, Kevin was sitting in the middle of the room with his legs crossed and his eyes closed as he contacted his Queen and Leo was attached to a Curtain growling loudly as I wiggle rapidly.
Red looked over to Kevin just as he opened his eyes "what's her decision?" She asked.
"Reform the Alicorn" he said rising to his feet and walking over as Red smiled before pulling the cover off Nightmare, which Red had wrapped in bandages from Kevin's Unleashed attack. Kevin patted Red's back before straddling Moon's waist before tapping the white focusing stone and the Gold one as they both glowed before he placed his hands on her temples. As he did his hands and Moon began to glow brightly, Kevin could feel her dark magic being absorbed into his body as he altered her body, by the time he was done, the several thousand year old Alicorn was now as old as AppleBloom roughly, her midnight mane had a silver and gold streak through it along with her tail while Kevin's hair and beard where now darkened, the mare under him slowly awoke to see the demon on top of her panting with blood dripping from his nose "it is done" he said before collapsing off the bed unconscious.
Moon jumped as she moved back and saw Red looking at her smiling "What is going on her" she asked before noticing her teenage form "What have you done to me?" She asked.
"Kevin has saved you from being beheaded or hung" Red replied as she moved Kevin's body into the bed as wiped the blood from his face.
"B-but why I thought I was his enemy?" She asked as she slowly approached Kevin.
"No you were just a mission from his queen" she said as she undid Kevin's belt and dumped it on the ground so his body could recharge.
"What are you doing?! You kill us all" Moon said backing away.
"He has full control over his unleashed power, I needed to remove it so his body could recharge as when he has the belt on, his magical levels go from God like to that of an Alicorn, and his ability to recharge his Magic almost instantly is gone so it takes longer to recharge.... the only reason he wore the belt when reforming you is he needed to use the focusing stones to take the dark magic from your body and replacing it with Celestial which is what Luna and Celestia weild" she said as Moon nodded as she moved close again.
"Okay but why am I a filly? " she asked as Red smirked.
"Well you need to be trained in using your magic for good and also Kevin has always wanted a apprentice" she said as Moon blushed softly before noticing the Skull that had eaten half of the curtain.
"What is that thing?" She asked as Red looked and groaned.
"Leo what have I told you about eating the curtains" she yelled as Leo simply growled.
"Interesting, so I guess I am to stay with you then?" She asked just as the doors opened to show Luna with several Batpony guards. "Please no i'm ......." Moon tried to say before she was wrapped in a tight hug by the blue Alicorn.
"We're so happy your okay" she said.
"What? Why?" Moon asked.
"Well you were pir imaginary friend when we were little and Tia would go out with stallions, you helped us save her and helped us when we were on the our Moon..... you are one of our closest friends" she said nuzzling the black Alicorn before she looked to Kevin as he sat up "thank you Kevin, but we must ask, are you really older then 10,000 years?" She asked.
"In a way yes" he groaned before Red removed his chest plate "why?" He asked.
"Oh well it would mean your older then both Tia and ourself" she stated with a smile "So in all seriousness, we should be your neice" she said smiling as Kevin shrugged.
"Sure...... wait does this mean I have to buy your birthday gifts now?" He asked as she smirked.
"Indeed" she giggled.
"Well you checking mmm..... anyway what's with the Guards?" He asked.
"Oh they just wanted to See Nyx" she said.
"Nyx? " he asked.
"It's what I called her when I was little" she said.
"I was thinking maybe Silver Lining" he said as Nyx growled at him "What it suits you seeing you'll be good" he said.
"And why should I be good?" Nyx asked.
"Because if not, next time i wont hold back" he said as Nyx's eyes widened.
"Y-you held back?" She asked.
"Well the forest and Ponyville isn't glass is it?" He asked as she fainted, along with three of the Guards just as Red smacked him on the back of the head "What? I was being honest" he said
"Stop scaring ponies" she said as he pouted before a maid entered with a letter.
"A letter for Mr Jenson " she said as Kevin took it and thanked her before the maid left.
"Who is it from?" Asked Red as Kevin looked at the letter before opening, a pink card slipped out which he caught .
"Dear Kevin, I have been informed by my brother that you have returned to Equis and I would like to catch up on Friday after my photo shoot which is 11:00, I hope you take me up on m request, the building is in Canterlot called 'Sweet Heart's Play House '.
Yours, Fleur Dis Lee" he read as he looked at the calender and noticed it was a day away. "Looks like I'm going to Canterlot" he said as Luna rose and summoned a scroll and quil in hand "What are you doing?"
"Informing our sister so she doesn't attack you" Luna said as Kevin nodded before walking to his bag and pulled out a blue loose top and placed it on the bed before removing his top, said action caused the remaining guards, maids and Luna to drop what they were doing and look at his heavily scarred form and tattooed, what gained Luna's attention though was her mother's Cutie Mark on a shield over his heart. "Where did you get that?" She asked tapping the tattoo with her finger.
"My Queen gave it to me when I became her knight" he said as her eyes Widened "what's wrong?" He asked.
"This is our Mother's Cutie mark" she said.
"Well if she didn't already inform me I would be shocked" he said "also she is proud of you" he said smiling before slipping on his top followed by grabbing his black jacket, Sun glasses and his magic eater sword before nodding and strapping on his belt "Okay so send the letter then you and I shall go to Canterlot " he said as Luna nodded.
She finished writing and sent it only to get a response instantly "Okay she says its okay" Luna said as Kevin nodded before slinging his bag and Luna Teleported the two of them.
As they came out of the teleport, they found themselves In a large dining room where Celestia, Cadence, Sunset and the Elements sat " will you join us Kevin?" Celestia asked as Kevin looked at her cautiously before slipping into a seat moments before Twilight produced a notepad, which Kevin incinerated.
"Why did you do that?" She asked.
"I just don't like you and also I'm not your test subject" he growled before looking back at Celestia "why are the Elements here?" He asked.
"Well we all have questions about how you could do that spell, said spell was more powerful then my ability to manipulate the sun" Celestia said as Kevin shrugged.
"Cause I can" he said as she growled "I have many secrets Celestia, fuck I'm 4000 years older then you" he said "and I have done many things and see even more" he said before producing a Black book from his bag "this is one of the many books i have written down information in, like all the monsters of Tartarus" he said as the book was suddenly surrounded in a violet aura, which he yanked it out of and returned it to his bag while Twilight groaned. "I recommend you stop before they have to pick you up with a dustpan" he threatened as she growled.
"I would beat you before you had a chance" she said as even Rainbow dash looked at her confused.
"So you think your faster then me?" He asked as she nodded which made him smirk. "Fine let's go to the areana" he said rising and left the room with Luna as Dash smacked Twilight on the back of the head.
"Owww what the buck?" She asked.
"Twi, Im headstrong but even I'm not stupid enough to take on a stallion who turned 5 aches of the Everfree to ash without breaking a sweat" she said as Twilight smiled.
"But I have a plan to defeat him" she said as the all went to the arena as Celestia and Cadence shook their heads.
(Arena)
Kevin had given his bag to Luna and was now standing in the arena as Twilight floated down to face him, the Elements, Alicorns and several Nobles watched as Celestia rose. "This is a battle Between Princess Twilight Sparkles and Kevin Jenson, the winner shall recieve something of grave importance from the other, no matter the item" she announced before raising her hand and dropped it, as she did Twilight blasted him with the same attack spell she used against Tirek but Kevin simply sidestepped it before tapping the yellow gem and blasting Twilight with a beam of lightning, which she leapt out of the way just as the beam glassed area she was standing although she soon found that her wings stopped working as she tried flapping, she looked to see Kevin with his hand on his Gravity stone.
"It's near impossible to fly in Zero Gravity" he said before removing his hand and she fell to the ground hard, stunning her for a second before she suddenly teleported behind him and placed a Magic inhibiting collar around his neck, but as she did, he kicked her in the chest, Sending her tumbling away.
But as she coughed to regain her breath she was laughing at her idea that she had removed his ability to use magic until she watched him grab the collar with both hands and ripped It in two causing her to gulp before she teleported to the furthered point away from him as she removed a Black amulet from his pocket, said amulet had a red gem in the middle as she attached it. "Twilight! What the Buck are you doing!" Cried Sunset as she watched her friend attach the Alicorn Amulet to around her neck but as she turned to use it, Kevin grabbed her by the horn and raised her from the ground.
He wrapped his hand around the amulet, ignoring the pain it forced on him and crushed the centre of the Amulet, causing the amulet to fall to the floor in pieces which in turn caused Everypony to look at him shocked.
"I-I surrender" she said as he removed the Element of Magic from her forehead before dropping her to the ground "wait you can't take that!" She said as Kevin simply created a portal to where Luna and Celestia was.
When he appeared, the group looked at him shocked as he collected his bag off Luna and wrapped the Element of Magic in a Arachnipony Silk cloth before putting it in the bag as he turned and left the Arena with Luna.
Twilight soon teleported up into the Booth "Princess you can't let him take the Element of Magic!" She said as Celestia sighed.
"You really think I can stop him? This is your fault for pushing him and now we all have suffered the consequences" she said "and to have stolen and used the Alicorn Amulet.... i am incredibly disappointed in you Twilight" she said shaking her head as Twilight'a ears flattened against her head, AppleJack had already gotten up and ran passed her after Kevin.
AJ soon found him leaning against a wall around a corner waiting for her, before she could even get a word out, he tossed her the Element of Magic which left her confused as he walked up and gently patted her cheek "ah Don't Get it?" She said as he smiled softly.
"This is her third and final warning, if she fucks with me, then I shall break her" he said calmly as she nodded "Oh and I'll make sure to get something for your birthday in a couple days" he said as he walks off down the hall before vanishing into the darkness before AJ was met by her friends, who looked confused to see her with the Element of Magic.
"AppleJack? How do you have the Element back?" Celestia asked as she unwrapped the crown and handed it back to Twilight as Rarity inspected the cloth.
"And what is this material? I have never felt something so soft and sulking and yet so strong" she said giving it a good yank apart which did nothing.
"He said that it was Twilight's Third an Final Warning" she said as Twilight gulped.
"Did he say anything else?" Twilight asked.
"Yea he said next time he will break ya, and that He is gonna get me ah gift for ma 27th" she said as Pinkie gasped.
"I totally forgot about your Birthday" she said.
"Can we focus on more pressing matters? We have just discovered that he not only is incredibly powerful with magic but Physically too" Celestia said "Sunset I need you to find a Banishi.....Sunset?" She asked looking around. "Where is she?"
(Canterlot,)
As Kevin entered the Building, he was greeted by a uptight Stallion yelling at one of the mares working at the Reception, who were refusing to be used as objects, the Stallion was a blue unicorn with a blonde mane and tail.
"I'm sorry Mr Gold Splash but we are not here for you pleasure" the Manager said before he grabbed her by the collar of her suit and was about to say something until he felt the cold point of a blade against his Spine.
"I recommend you run along Colt before you are renamed 'Unidentifiable Corpse' " Kevin said as the Unicorn raised his hands before turning and his eyes widened and his face went pale at the sight of Kevin.
"I-I'm sorry, it won't happen again" he said with his hands in the air before running away.
"Shithead" Kevin said before turning to the mares who tensed up under his gaze as he smiled softly "hey is the Sweet Hearts Play House?" Asked as the mares nodded rapidly "good, I am about 12 hours early for my meeting so would I be able to have a room for the night?" He asked kindly.
"Um..... s-sure I believe we have a room free for you" the Manager said as Kevin smiled and pulled a bar of gold from his Bag.
"Does this suffice as payment?" He asked as he placed it on the counter causing both mares' jaws to drop.
"Yes definetely, May I get your name?" She said more relaxed as Kevin produced the pink card and handed it to her "Oh, you are Ms Fleur Dis Lee's friend, then you already have a deluxe room reservated for you, y-you can take your gold back" she said slightly down.
"Whats Gold?" He asked as she pointed at the Gold Bar "oh that's not mine, that's yours" he said warmly as the Manager hugged him tightly suddenly causing him to flinch.
"Thank you, this will help so much" she said holding him as he loss my hugged back, the gesture still somewhat alien to him.
"No worries" he said as she released him.
"My name is Sweet Heart" she said as Kevin looked her over briefly, she was a aqua Pegasus with Pink patches on her body, her mane was wrapped up in a braided light pink and green pony tail same with her tail with a bright blue flower in her mane as her magenta eyes watched him with a smirk. "Enjoying the view?" She asked as her arms moved under her large bust.
"Your not bad" he said shocking her and the receptionist.
"What do you mean?" She asked.
"For a Mortal, your a 15, but for in general, you a 8" he said as she blushed softly "and that's comparison you to a literal Sex goddess" he said as she nodded before she led him down the halls of the building until they reached a room in which she pulled a key from her pocket and unlocked it and let him in.
"If you need anything like food, water, mares just press the button on the wall" she said as he nodded and left before he entered and closed the door.
"Your Stealth spells still is good but not good enough Sunset" he said as the Alicorn materialised sitting in Hythe couch.
"Sorry I just wanted to talk to you in private" she said as he nodded before leaning against the door. "Okay well I just wanted to ask if you and I could become friends?" She asked.
"Well do you have any hidden goals?" He asked.
"Well apart from the fact your good looking, I just thought you could do with a friend" she said kindly as Kevin chuckled.
"I doubt you could handle me, but I'd enjoy having a friend" he said.
"Is that a challenge?" She asked.
"Maybe, it all depends if you want to go down that road?" He asked as she rose from the couch and walked over to Stan in front of him.
"Well if your any thing like AJ has described then I think I stallion like that
" she said smiling.
"And what has she told you?" Asked as he soon found her arms around his neck.
"Your kind hearted, strong, tolerant to a degree, protective of friends, smart, loyal and brave" she said smiling.
"I guess that sounds about right, but are you sure you want to be in a relationship with a Demon?" He asked.
"Well it's also a major Buck you to Celestia and Twilight" she said with a chuckle.
"And what's gonna stop them from thinking I mind controlled you?" He asked.
"Because right now they have probably discovered my letter declaring me abandoning my Princesshood and Joining Luna at the Everfree Castle due to Celestia and Twilights actions towards you" she said as he nodded "and besides unlike the others, I never received a castle or and real respect even though I have been a princess for the passed four years" she said before resting her head on his shoulder as his arms moved around her form.
"Its okay Sunset but is really screwing a Demon the best option?" He asked.
"Well ever since I became a Alicorn, Stallions have avoided me or tried to marry me for my power..... even though they would just die before me so I want to be with somepony who I can spend the rest of time with and after a few sneaky scans I have discovered your body doesn't age" she said smiling Sheepishly.
"I guess that's good enough reasoning "so how about you spend tomorrow with me?" He asked as she nodded before pecking his cheek making him blush slightly before she walked and sat down on the floor.
"There is only one thing I ask, this will keep Twilight and Celestia off your back" she said as he nodded "I would like to Document your gear, not what's inside it just everything we have seen so far and how you managed to obtain it" she said as he thought for a moment before nodding as he walked over to a table and placed his bag on it before he began to pull out items, such as his cloak, arm armour, Gauntlet and sword before walking over and sitting in front of Sunset with the gear as she produced a notepad and pen, she nodded before he removed his belt and placed it with the gear.
"Okay take your pick" he said drawing his second sword and placing it next to his Star metal and Nymph metal sword.
"Um let's start with the Belt" she said as he nodded and picked it up.
"Okay so this was created from the hair and feathers of a crazed Alicorn named Solaris, its designed to keep my power level stable, the thirty gems are made of pure Magic of that kind and when I touch the gem, my magic alters to be able to manipulate said magic type until I negate it by tapping it again" he said as she nodded and wrote down what he said as he placed it back on the ground.
"Okay um the sword with the Purple Blade" she said.
"This is the Weapon Solaris had on his person, it's Star Metal handle with a Nymph metal blade, which allows for magic to be absorbed and thrown back at said target while also the blade can change form to what I desire at the time" he said as she nodded.
"So like a multi Tool?" She asked and he nodded. "Okay and the other?" She asked.
"This originally was a gift from my Father, the Weapon was crushed when Tirek returned to Tartarus and broke free, after defeating him I removed his horns and buried him alive, I melded the Horns and the horn of the Tyrant King Sombra when he was banished to Tartarus which allows for magic to be absorbed and launched back at the target, the difference between the blades is that th I one can actually have the magic it absorbed coat the blade" he said as she nodded.
"The arm armour?" She asked.
"This was a gift from the Rat King after I severed his head..... before you ask he simply stuck his head back on, so the armour is clawed that can pierce nearly any material and is helpful for climbing, it also provides excellent defense" he said.
"Why not have two then?" She asked
"Because due to these tattoos i can't not as if they are covered by metal then they burn painfully" he said as she nodded with a sad expression as he placed the arm armour down.
"The Gauntlet?" She asked as he picked it up.
"This was gifted to mr by the ArchniPony queen after I helped deal with a Great One threatening her city, the small gold spider on the top of the glove's hand produces Archipony silk which is soft, thin and harder then steel, the silk is fed to the fingers which react to my magic to allow me to spin webs and set up trip wires" he said "also thanks to the metal being a star metal, it doesn't burn my skin but Star Metal is really expensive so making armour out of it is stupid" he said as she nodded before pointing to his cloak. "Oh this is a gift from the Vampony King after i helped deal with some..... unfriendly types, it changes its internal temperature to cool when it's hot and hot when it's cold, also when I channel magic into it directly it will transform into Bat Wings which helps, also it is quite a durable material" he said.
"Oh cool, and lastly the bag" she asked.
"Oh another gift from the Rat King, yea he is a good friend" he chuckled "Okay so this us created from ancient Alicorn and Chaos Bringer hair and allows for infinite storage" he said as she nodded before he packed everything up and reattached his belt.
"So can you tell me how many people you met in Tartarus?" She asked.
"Hundreds, many friends, many foes and a few companions along the way" he said as the last part caught Sunset's attention.
"Companions?" She asked.
"Yes some were just needed me for relief, while some came adventuring with me When Red stayed at cities" he said.
"Relief?" She asked.
"Sex" he stated as she turned bright red.
"O-oh i-I see, any one interesting?" She asked as Kevin scratched his chin.
"The Queen of the Black Sun, Queen of the Blood Moon, ArchniPony Queen, a Tetra Arm which is a 10 foot tall muscular being with four arms, Lamia and a few others" he said as Sunset was Writing down everything he said.
"Um What is the Blood Moon and Black sun?" She asked
"Well the Blood Moon producing a Red Glow and is warmwhich Vamponies, Succuponies and other demons or leaching creatures grow stronger under its glow while the Black Sun produces a Silver glow and is cold, most undead creatures come out under it and so do Titan class monsters and demons" he said as she nodded.
"What is a Titan Class? Are there other Classes?" She asked as Kevin took a deep breath.
"Okay there are several Classes, the weakest is a Lower E Class which is pretty much a snake or Wandering Mango, then there is D Class which ponies, Griffins, Minotours, Dragons, Hydra, etc. Any questions thus far?" He asked.
"Yes why are Dragons and Hydra in the same class as Ponies? And what is a Wandering Mango?" She asked.
"Ponies are medium D Class while Dragon and Hydra are Upper D Class, and a Wandering Mango is a mango that has five tentacles and small mouth for eating insects, they breed like rabbits and are quite useful as they can feed Herbivores and Carnivores" he explained as she nodded. "Okay so C class are your Rats, not your household rats but Rat people, also there are Greater Demons, Vamponies, Succuponies, lower Demon Lords" he said as she nodded and smiled
"B class are Great Ones, Demon Lords, Keepers, Behemoths, A class are Alicorns, Chaos Bringers which is What Discord and Eris are, Levithans, Demon Kings. Then there are Spirit class which range from Wisps to Windigos and Wendigos, they range from weak to incredibly powerful." He said as she nodded "any Questions?"
"What are Great Ones and Keepers?" She asked.
"Great Ones are the same level as a Demon Lord but are not a Demon, and a Keeper is an immortal being in a Section of Tartarus, when you defeat one, you are branded and allowed to traverse that section as you see fit without worry of attack from the Keeper or its soldiers" he said showing his heavily tattooed arm.
"So is that why they burn when covered by metal?" She asked as he nodded "that's clever, stops them being covered?" She asked as he nodded again.
"Yes and now, S Class..... Okay so their are 77 known S classes, almost all are humanoid so like you or me, each is capable of great destruction, a Lower S Class can slay 500 upper A Class with ease, these range from Demon Gods, Tartarus Kings, Tartarus Champion, Cerberus, Titan class, Myself, and the God of Tartarus" he said as she nodded.
"What is the God of Tartarus?" She asked.
"He is a Titan Class in a way.... well he is Tartarus, he is a massive creature and apart from Titans, the only non-humanoid S Class but he is the only Immortal and Indestructible one as well he is covered by a few miles of soil, rock, mountains, you name it, then there is his BedRock shell which is indestructible, trust me I have tried, used all my unleashed Energy to blast him in one spot one time, and when I ran out he wasn't even a little melted or damaged" he said as Sunset gulped. "And Titan classes are beast of incredible Size, bigger then Behemoths and Levithans but most are peaceful" he said as she nodded as she finished writing and sent her letter away moments later a letter returned to Her as she opened it and nodded.
"Okay do you have been approved to be an Equestrian Citizen" she said smiling as Kevin smiled.
"Cool" he said standing and walking to the bathroom "oh and you get the bed tonight" he said as she looked confused.
"B-but I thought we would share?" She asked a little heart broken.
"Sorry buts a little habit, it takes me a bit to trust people to sleep with me, it has saved me a few times and I just need to get passed it in my time" he said as she nodded before walked to the bedroom section of the room as Kevin showered.
(Next morning)
Kevin was sitting on the couch cross legged and reading one of the dozens of books in his bag, Sunset was still asleep and Kevin could sense alot of activity through the building, he noticed That someone was about to knock on the door so he bookmarked his book and rose just as the knock was heard so he went and unlocked it to find a Vinnila Mare with a lemon yellow mane and tail, upon Kevin opening the door, he had failed to remember his lack of clothes save for his boxers as the mare's eyes quickly drifted to his muscular scarred body as a Blush grew on her face until he cleared his throat after inspecting her skimpy Maid outfit.
"O-oh i-i'm sorry I didn't mean to stare" she said.
"Its fine its a pretty unnerving sight" he said gesturing her in as she followed him in.
"N-no no it isn't, the scars add character its just your pretty good look in for a demon" she said blushing.
"Well your pretty good looking for a pony" he said as he pulled on pants.
"T-thank you" she said as she sat on the couch as he pulled on a top, much to her disappointment.
"So any reason your here?" He asked.
"Oh right well Ms Dis Lee would like you to come to her Photo Shoot now" she said smiling as she straightened out her outfit.
"Okay and may I get your name?" He asked.
"M-my name?" She asked as he nodded "it's Glitter Mistral" she said "but call me Glitter" she said as he nodded.
"Its nice to meet you Glitter, My name is Kevin" he said offering her hand as she smiled and took it before shaking it as Sunset stumbled out if the bedroom half awake, she ignored the two as she entered the small kitchen and grabbed some coffee, downed it before looking the two "Sunset, as much as I love your enthusiasm I recommend at least having a bra on when we have company" he said as she looked confused before looking down at her bare chest before turning bright red and teleported into the room "Also get dressed as he we leaving in 20 minutes" he called out before he looked at Glimmer who was blushed heavily " would you like some coffee?" He asked as she nodded.
(30 minutes later)
The three were walking through the halls of the studio section of the Building, Sunset had been quite the whole journey as she stayed behind Kevin, Glimmer was discussing about what the studio did and how his 'donation' would help deal with the landlord and his Fuckery. The three soon arrived at a door where the Photo Shoot was and something caught Kevin's attention "that's human Music?" He said pushing the doors open only to have his ears blasted by music, moments before the Mare working on the speaker gave him an apologetic look and turned it down. The three walked until they found Fleur doing poses in a interesting set naked, Sunset's wings instantly sprang out as Glimmer blushed but Kevin had seen Fleur too many times to be really effected "her breasts are bigger" he said scratching his chin "curious" he said as the pony in charge of the Photo Shoot noticed them, she noticed Kevin and a Smirk grew across her face as she called for a break.
"Okay Everypony can take 20 minutes" she called out as Kevin stepped passed the working ponies and stood just in front of the set. What he wasn't expecting was Fleur to slap him hard in the face before she grabbed the back of his head and locked lips with him, leaving him completely confused before he shrugged and kinase her back.
When they finally parted she growled at him "you're a Bastard" she said punching his arm.
"Look I'm sorry I left without saying goodbye" he said.
"Yes but you did bother to come visit Me or contact me" she said.
"A little hard when one Celestia was on my ass and also I didn't have your number, " he said.
"And also I have your phone" she said.
"Yea, that would explain the poses and the music" he said as she wrapped her arms around his form "but my questions are why did you kiss me? And why are you breasts bigger?" He asked.
"Well when I left the guard i met a stallion who i married and had a colt with but he passed away a few years ago.... and I just missed you so much" she stated as she hugged him.

Chapter 5 - War Song and the Crusaders (Different Ending)
Kevin was currently sitting in a luxurious room, it one of the few floors that had been converted Into apartments, which only a few ponies owned and they were either Sweetheart, some of the Working mares or VIPs. In the living room of one of the Apartments that belonged to Fleur, Kevin was sipping from a wine glass, to his left was Glitter, Glimmer which Kevin discovered after she slapped him, apparently she volunteered to be Kevin's guild for Canterlot, next to her was Sunset who was talking in her phone to someone. On his right was Sweetheart and Fleur talking about future photoshoots, leaving Kevin to his own devices as he sipped the bonafide grape juice. After about five minutes, a stallion in a very interesting Police officer get up opened the door, "Sweetie darling we have a problem" he said flamboyantly.
"What's wrong Honey Pot?" She asked concerned as she got up, along with Kevin.
"Well the Landlord is back and demanding money and mares" he said but before Sweetheart could say anything Kevin intervened.
"Take me to them" he said.
"Why?" Honey and Sweet asked.
"I'm gonna solve all your problems" he said as Sweet nodded and the group went down lobby to find four stallions, one in a black suit and the rest in baggy clothes with bats and maces.
"Hello Gold Rush" Sweet said as they all but Kevin entered the lobby.
"Ahh Sweetheart, Fleur Dis Lee and Princess Sunset, it's is a pleasure" he said as Kevin moved silently behind them.
"Why are you here Mr Rush?" She asked as she noticed Kevin standing behind the four stallions.
"Well I have come to collect on your Debt" he said smirking.
"What Debt is that?" She asked.
"Well you forgot to pay me for allowing those freeloaders to stay without working, if anything give them to me and my boy's for a couple of days" he chuckled.
"You know, I don't like you" Kevin said as the three other stallions were wrapped up in vines as Kevin pressed the tip of his sword against Rush's back.
"And why should I care about what you think?" He growled.
"Hmmm well I could turn you into mush" he said smirking.
"Right, I bet you couldn't even beat a filly" Rush said.
"So Princess Twilight, King Daine and the Caribou and Nightmare Moon were weaker than Fillies?" He asked as Rush locked up and looked over his shoulder to see Kevin.
"D-demon..... what do you want?" He asked.
"I want this establishment and 50% of your land" Kevin stated as Rush nodded rapidly before drawing a folder from his bag and placed it on the counter.
"I-in there are all my deeds" he said as Kevin sheathed his sword and grabbed the folder.
"Good, let's go for a walk, you and i" Kevin said before walking out with the four stallions, he returned half an hour later with a smug look on his face while his clothes had a bit of blood splattered on them. "All sorted" he said.
"What did you do to them?" Sunset asked.
"Oh his goons attacked me...... so anyway I now own this place and Sweetheart, don't worry about rent or commission or whatever" he said making the Pegasus hug him, which he returned. "So Fleur, I'm sorry to say but I have to head to Ponyville for some personal matters" he said as he released Sweetheart as Fleur handed him his old phone with a smile.
"I had Sunset duplicate it but change the phone number before adding my number and Sweetheart's and Glitter's, don't be a stranger" she said hugging her friend before Sunset and himself teleported away.
(Ponyville outskirts)
Sunset and Kevin appeared in front of an old manor a few miles south of Ponyville, Sunset looked at the place confused as Kevin used several of his gems and began to repair the building with his magic, revealing a large well kept manor.
"What's this for?" Sunset asked.
"Well living in the forest is really boring and this allows me to see my old friends more often" he said as he entered the house.
"Um Kevin you do realise you will need a maid" she said.
"Sunny, for the last Ten Thousand years, I have never needed a made and i have lived in castles, manors and a Cathedral " he said.
"S-sunny?" She asked blushing.
"Yea its a nickname for you" he said smiling at her.
"I-I like it," she said before regaining her composure "but a Maid would be helpful as they can clean, cook and keep you company" she said with a wink.
"If I wanted company I'd ask Red or bring one of my companions from Tartarus here..... but I see your point, but who would willing want to be my maid?" He asked.
"Glitter" she said.
"Okay I'll ask her when I furnish this place" he said as Sunny smiled, Kevin incinerated all the old rotten furniture and cleaned the place just as the sun was setting.
"I can bring some of my things from my apartment if you like" she said with a smile.
"Maybe later, I'm gonna head back to the Everfree castle and let Red know about what's going on" he said as Sunny nodded and the Two teleported back the the castle
As they appeared in the courtyard, they were instantly attacked by ponies in heavy plate armour, Kevin gently pushed Sunny back as he superheated one's armour, electrocuted the second and bisected the third in a few moments before he looked at Sunny and nodded before his armour and cloak formed armoured his body and he swapped his magic eater sword for his shapeshifter blade and proceeded into the castle.
After fighting his way through dozens upon dozens of armoured ponies, he reached the library, where he found five armoured ponies, one of them having a golden trim to his armour, and in front of them was a wounded Red and Nyx, who was panting hard. The sight of his long time friend wounded caused Kevin to growl, Sunset noticed this and a loud rumble of thunder as the air grew cold, the intruders noticed and turned around.
"Ah then is the last Alicorn filth, we have been wondering where you were" he chuckled as Sunny looked to Kevin, only to find him missing. "What's the matter? Cat got your tongue?" He asked chuckling but was cut short when a hot thick red metallic liquid splattered on his face and armour "What the devil?" He asked before looking down to see his arm was in tatters and below his elbow was simply strips of dangling bloodied flesh.
"Sir?" Asked one of the other soldiers as the sound of gurgling was heard, making them look to see the armoured pony on the end with his own sword sticking out of his neck.
"What the Hay is going on?" Asked the leader causing Red to chuckle "What's so funny?!"
"You managed to piss off Kevin, which is a feat in itself, so now all your little boys are gonna die" she said smiling.
"And what of me?" He asked.
"Oh I bet he with extract the information he needs from you" she chuckled as the remaining armoured ponies spread out.
"Crusaders, why shall not falter" he shouted as a deep chuckle was heard causing everyone but Red to have a shiver go up their spine as Kevin materialised in the middle of the group moments before he beheaded one of the Crusaders and mortally wounded another. "What? How?" The leader asked as his remaining Crusader charged before stopping in his tracks as he gasped for air.
"When one have mastery of an Element, Wind per say, one can transform one's body into said element" he stated as the Crusader was gasping breathlessly as he ripped off his helmet and neck armour.
"What did you do to my stallion?" The leader asked.
"Oh nothing too extreme, I simply am stopping any air entering his body" Kevin said.
"No let him breath!" The Crusader demanded.
"Tell me your mission" Kevin growled.
"We were ordered to collect all the Alicorns for the ceremony" he said.
"Okay why? And what is the ceremony for?" Kevin asked.
"Because the Alicorns are a plague, Tyrants which deserved to be dethroned, and their agents are keeping the world under their control" he stated "and the Ceremony will give our glorious leader all their magic and the power of the Elements of Harmony" he said as Kevin nodded before breaking the gasping crusader's neck. "You said you would let him breath".
"I said no such thing" Kevin stated as he tapped a light purple gem and grabbed the stallion's face, causing the stallion to cry out before collapsing to the ground in a blubbering mess. "I now have their location and everything I need to know about their base" he said as he turned and walked over to Red before healing her.
"Holy Buck that was brutal" Nyx stated as Kevin shrugged. "What now?" She asked.
"Well, I got and save the Elements of Harmony and the princesses, Celestia and Twilight continue to be shit heads but I can at least say that i saved their assets yet again" he chuckled.
"I'm coming with you" Sunset and Nyx said.
"No" he said standing.
"Why?" Nyx asked.
"One you lot need to help the Thresal village and Two that would put two more Alicorns into these crazy ponies' hands" he said as he pulled up his cowl and hood before vanishing.
(Badlands, Celestia P.O.V)
Celestia groaned as she slowly opened her eyes to find herself bound to a post by a strange chain, her wings were tied up and she had a inhibitor collar around her neck, she looked around her to find the Elements of Harmony, Luna, Cadence and the Changeling Queen Chrysalis all in the same position. Before she had a chance to say anything a bucket of icy water was thrown on her causing her to Gasp in shock and look at the pony in heavy plate armour, her cheek had a glowing gold symbol she didn't recognise as she walked back to a tub of water and refilled the bucket before dumping water on the remaining mares as a blood Red Alicorn Stallion descended from above in heavy gold plate armour, his mane was a flowing silver and white colour as we approached the mares with a smirk. "My my, how my daughter has grown into a lovely whorse" he chuckled causing Tia to spit in his face, this resulted in him growling and backhanding her "stupid bitch" he stated as suddenly his ears perked to the sound of a explosion. All the ponies and Changling looked to a small building behind them to see it was a flaming ruin, but what made Celestia's heart skip and slightly chill was the sight of Kevin walk out of the inferno and towards them. "Ahh if it isn't my dear friend the Dominus Contritio" the Alicorn chuckled spreading his arms out in greeting while Celestia's heart sank.
'I knew it' she thought.
"The Former Dominus Bellum? Now what are you doing here?" Kevin asked.
"I have come to take what my Whorse of a Wife stole from me" he growled.
"Who is your wife WarSong?" Kevin asked.
"Why Queen Faust, and when I find her I shall slay her" he said as Kevin drew his shape changing sword. "What are you doing?" He asked confused.
"You shall not take my Queen's land, no matter if you are friend or not, but why did you take the Alicorns?" Kevin asked curious as his bag and cloak vanished in a proof of smoke.
"I intend to repopulate the Alicorn race and these mares are perfect" he chuckled. "Serve me and we shall rule Equis and Tartarus together" he said offering his hand.
"Um no, I'm just gonna kill you seeing your no longer Immortal" Kevin said as he crouched, his right hand dug into the ground as his back left leg bend while his Right was straight as he held his blade in his left hand.
"So be it" WarSong said as both S Classes launched at each other at incredible speed, upon impact, they sent each other back before War fired a powerful magical attack, which Kevin barely dodged and fired on back that Song deflected back at Kevin sending him sliding back. "Come on let's stop playing" he said removing the gemmed vambraces as Kevin removed his belt.
"Let's do this" Kevin growled before both Dominus charged each other, clashing blades before Song took to the Sky, his free hand glowed white as circular runes formed in the air around him the same colour, Kevin barely had enough time to put up a shield before a barrage of white missiles struck the ground around him, glassing the area, when the smoke and dust cleared, Kevin was standing on Glass as a small lake of molten glass surrounded him. Kevin growled as his own hands glowed pink as the molten glass was lifted and shape into lances and solidify before hundreds of thin sharp glass missiles took flight towards Song, said Alicorn sweeper his Glaive across in front of him and shattered hundreds while the rest bounced off his armour harmlessly before he chuckled.
"Is that your best, I thought I was fighting a fellow Dominus" he laughed before a pink missile hit him creating a massive explosion that made the Night brighter than day, Song covered his eyes along with the rest of the ponies as Kevin's nymph blade changed into a mace before he leapt at Song and knocked him out of the sky and crack his armour. As Kevin was in the air, his mace suddenly shifted into a Glaive as a massive beam of magic was launched at him, Kevin hit the beam with his sword and launched the attack back into the smoke cloud causing an explosion.
"Don't underestimated me Song" Kevin said before a white beam sliced through his body, barely missing vital organs before Kevin hit the ground.
"Yes that was a foolish mistake" Song growled as he grabbed Kevin by the neck and slammed him into the ground repeatedly before throwing him across the field "but you are still no match for me" he said as his mane and tail ignited, his teeth sharpened and claws grew from his nails "for now I am unleashed" he chuckled before his smile faded when he noticed something. Kevin had landed by his belt and had removed a clear gem from it.
"I know, and maybe I should be trying" Kevin said as the gem glowed in his hand "ever wondered what the gravity of the sun is like?" Kevin asked as Song's eyes widened before darting to the side before the area he was standing was suddenly cratered causing the entire ground to shake. "Stay still" Kevin growled as he continued to try and crater Song.
Song suddenly sliced his weapon through the air behind him as a portal opened, second later several demons came through "protect your Dominus" he ordered as the demons attacked Kevin just as he returned the gem to his belt and put it on. Kevin implanted his sword into the ground and pulled two metal pins from his belt, the pins resembled that of a sai without the hilt, Kevin tossed the pins unintentionally in front of the Changeling before he tapped several of the gems and dodged to the right away from several attacks. When he was a few metres back, he waved his hands in the air before dozens of violet orbs formed in the air above him making the demons stop, look up and turn tail except it was too late for them as a dozen of the orbs few at them and detonated, incinerating the intruders as the rest fell at the portal and detonated, sealing it.
Kevin dropped his belt before grabbing his sword and charging at Song, who was surprised at how quickly his minions fell, so Kevin was able to slice across his chest only for Song to cut him back and buck him away.
As the two fought Sunny, Red and Nyx appeared and started to free the mares. "Are you kidding me? Dominus Bellum WarSong?" Red asked.
"Red what does Dominus Bellum mean?" Luna ask the ogre.
"Well Dominus means Lord, its the title of a King of Tartarus and Bellum means war" she said as Luna and a few of the mares nodded.
"Ms Red, what does Contritio mean?" Celestia asked.
" Destruction" Red said.
"Its fitting" Chrysilis stated as she walked over with the Pins " what are these?" She asked as Red looked at the pins.
"Those are the inhibitor pins in Kevin's Belt, they stop him from using powerful magic through the belt" she said before looking at Kevin as he was thrown across the glass field.
"You bucking bit me" Song roared as Kevin gave him the finger and charged at him.
"So he is a being of destruction?" Celestia ask.
"Actually no, a Domnius is a neutral party as they maintain the good and the bad side of their title for example WarSong is suppose to keep the peace and also lead wars to ensure it but that's rare and also he ignored his peace keeping duties and tried to take over Tartarus so he was stripped of his title and banished, Kevin is suppose to create along with destroy, if you add what to any blood his has spilled on the any form of ground, it will grow to suit the terrain." Red explained as she picked up a hand full of sand.
"Ahh you bucking cut my wing off!" Song cried out before a massive explosion was heard.
"That would explain why that Everfree location he burnt is re-growing in patches," Nyx said.
"Yea Kevin was gonna go and fix it up but this kind of got in the way" Red said as Celestia sighed.
"I have been a bucking fool" she said placing her face in her hands.
"Ummm girls, Kevin is losing" Dash said as the girls looked to see Song slicing Kevin's chest before slamming him into the glass before stomping his chest.
"Time to die, you are a fool for continuing to hold back" he said as he rose his Glaive over Kevin's neck but in a blur of white, Song's right hand from the elbow down was severed and landed a few feet away with his weapon in hand, he then felt strong magic blast him causing him to slide back before looking at what hit him to see Celestia with Kevin's sword in hand, her mane was burning, eyes slitted and fingers clawed with her teeth sharpened, the area around her seemed to burn as she stood over a shocked Kevin. "Whorse!" He roared before his left hand was surrounded in black energy before lunging forward only for Celestia to be shoved sideways and Kevin high kicking Song in the jaw, sending him into the air before hundreds of glowing white orbs materialised and Kevin fired a barrage of Magic missiles at Song lighting up the Night sky for miles. Celestia pushed herself off the ground with a frown on her face only to see a red blur slam down on top of Kevin, creating a massive crater.
"Ahh finally you are def..... oh buck" Song said before he leapt out of the crater only for the pins from Kevin's belt to be stabbed into him by Celestia. "Bitch" he growled back handing her before taking to the sky before looking down at the Kevin, whose hands were glowing bright red. "Die" Song roared but he soon looked at him hand confused "why is my magic not working" he asked before he looked back to see a massive wave of pure Magic flying towards him. "Buck" was the last thing he said before he was consumed by it, the massive beam of magic cut through the sky before vanishing to reveal Song's bloodied sword helmet along with both pins fall to the ground.
"And fuck you too" Kevin said before as rain began to fall making him chuckle as grass grew around the entire arena before he fell forwards only to be caught by the Alabaster Alicorn.
"I'm so sorry please forgive me Kevin, please"she cried softly as she held him against her.
"Mmmm mmm mmmm" Kevin stated as his face was buried in her bust.
"What?" She asked.
"I can't breath" he panted as he was on his hands and knees as Celestia rubbed his back gently. Kevin was about to say something before he was helped back to his feet by Red.
“How bad?” she asked the man.
“I think several of my ribs are broken but apart from that, I'm good” Kevin said before he leant against the Ogre and sighed.
“Well we best get you to a hospital” Luna said as she took Kevin’s hand.
“Yea…. Cause I should have healed by now” he groaned.
“Um Kev, you have a chunk of metal sticking out of your shoulder” Twilight pointed out as Kevin moved his hand over his shoulder and grabbed a shard and ripped it free causing the violet shard to glow and hiss which burnt Kevin’s hand causing him to drop it, upon hitting the ground, the shard shattered and a volley of glowing projectiles erupted from the shards and pierced Kevin’s form making him drop to the ground in pain.
“gahh, What the fuck” Kevin growled in pain.
“Kevin!” all the females called out and crowded him.
“I'm….. I'm alright… the pain has stopped” Kevin said as he lifted his head but became confused when they gasped. “What?”
“Kevin, your eyes” Celestia said.
“What about them?” he asked as Red helped him to his feet.
“They are normal again” AppleJack said as Rarity gave him her hand mirror. The man opened it to see that his red eyes were green once more.
“Okay, What the fuck?”. Kevin asked.
"Congrats on becoming human again" Stated one of the group, not that Kevin really gave a shit that people were talking, what he gave a damn about was that something managed to do something to him, he already felt less powerful.
"This is bad, scratch that, this is fucking horrific" he said catching the group's attention.
"Why do you say that?" Red asked.
"Well if this crystal or metal or whatever the fuck it is managed to strip me of my Demonhood then imagine what it would do to a pony, Alicorn or Chaos being?" He asked as Eris flinched.
"Well maybe it only affects demons?" Nyx suggested.
"Doubtful, something like that would most likely form in a demonic realm, not here" He informed as he tried to stand but his body had other plans as his legs gave out but Luna and Sunset caught him.
"What's wrong?" Luna asked.
"I can't heal rapidly anymore and I'm pretty fucked up at the moment" Kevin groaned as the Night Alicorn nodded.
"So let's get you to a Hospital then" Twilight advised as Kevin shook his head.
"No, my well being is the last thing I am worried about, Red...... do you have any poultices?" He asked the Red Oni, who proceeded to draw a vial with a blood red fluid inside of it.
"Here but remember don't drin......" she was saying be for Kevin downed the contents of the vial. "Your not suppose to drink it you twit." She said as Kevin chuckled while his heavier wounds stopped bleeding and partially closed.
"Yea but it works faster" He said as he signalled both Luna and Sunset to let him down, which hesitantly they did. "It should last for half an hour" He said as he walked over to the crater that he was slammed into by WarSong.
"Then we have to get ya to the hospital" AppleJack said as he shrugged and slid down into the crater.
"Soon AJ," He said as Red slid down into the crater along with Red and Celestia. "Here we go"
"What did you find?" Celestia asked as she approached only for her mane to fall flat against her body. "What happened?" She asked as Kevin pointed down at her feet, which were she discovered that she was standing on a vein of the material. "But if this is affecting me through my shoes then how were you able to fight with such power with with chunk sticking from your shoulder?" She asked.
"Cause unlike you, i was nearly made out of raw magic" he said with a shrug as Celestia cocked an eyebrow.
"How?" She asked.
"I'll explain later, but now we need to get out of this hole" he said as Celestia nodded before she teleported the three out of the crater which lead to her falling to her knees panting. "You forgot to step off the crystal, didn't you?" He asked as she flipped him off which caused him to chuckle before walking to the edge of the crater and blasted the crater with a massive amount of magic, obliterating the vein of crystals before he collapsed unconscious.
(A few days later)
The feeling of a pulsing skull and a warm body pressed against his form was first thing Kevin felt as he awoke, upon open in his eyes, he was greeted with the sight of Red pressing herself up against Kevin's bandaged body. A small smile formed on his face as he placed his hand on her cheek and kissed her forehead causing her to slowly open her eyes and groan. "Why did you wake me up?" She groaned and buried her face into his neck.
"Well as much as I love being cuddled up to by you, i need to use the bathroom" Kevin said as she shrugged.
"Fine but come back" she said as she released him, which he quickly sat up and gasped loudly as a surge of pain rushed through his chest. "Careful, you're still healing" She said as she moved over to him and wrapped her arms around him.
"Y-yea... I just remembered about the whole mortal thing.... hey where are we?" Kevin asked as he felt Red give his chest a soft squeeze.
"Well Sunset mentioned that you acquired this mansion so, Fat ass decided to furnish it for us" She explained as Tony nodded before skidding off the bed and walking into the bathroom.
"And why am I not in a hospital?" Kevin asked.
"Because Sparkle wanted to run some experiments on you" Red said as Kevin growled before he finished and ran a shower.
"She is a bitch" Kevin said as he heard the bathroom door open.
"Here let me help you" She said as she began to undo the bandages.
"So how long was I out and why was I?" He asked as he stepped into the shower with his Companion.
"About two or three days, and apart from your injuries and a few broken bones, you managed to have a magical overload as apparently your body can't handle you using large amounts of magic now" She explained as Kevin growled before sighing.
"Guess I have to train to use my powers again" He said.
"Yea but I'll be here with you..... speaking of which, seeing as we will be here in the Overworld for a long time, do you maybe want to, i don't know...." she was trying to say but trailed off.
"I'd love to make our relationship serious" He said causing her to hugged him tightly and lift him off the ground. "RED!" He shouted as she released what she had just done and released him before smiling innocently.
"Sorry" She said as he chuckled softly before they finished their shower and stepped out.
"So what have I missed?" Kevin asked as he walked out into the room.
"Well a white Pegasus mare keeps coming over each day to see you" Red said as she opened a wardrobe and pulled out some clothes for Kevin and placed them on the bed.
"White Pegasus mare? What was her name?" He asked as he dressed himself.
"Snow Drop" Red said as Kevin paused "You know her?" Red asked.
"Y-yea I do, i just don't understand why she wants to see me after so long" he sighed looking down before returning his gaze to Red who smiled softly at him. "She was my partner 15 Equis years ago.... until she started seeing another guy and had a little one with him" he said before walking over to his satchel, which was hanging up and pulled his Nymph metal sword from the bag and strapped it to his back along before slinging the bag of his shoulder. "Come on, let's go get some food cause I'm really hungry" he said as Red nodded and finished dressing and lead Kevin to the kitchen only to discover a red and white Griffoness in a strange maid outfit except the top part resembled an apron of sorts, which barely covered her large bust. Next to the cooking Griffoness was Glitter in an identical outfit brewing coffee.
"Glitter? What are you wearing?" Kevin asked gaining the attention of the two maids.
"Ah Master Kevin, you're awake" She said walking over to him with a smile on her face.
"Master?" He asked as she nodded and he groaned "Okay um what's with the outfits?" He asked as she looked down at her outfit and smiled.
"This is the maid uniform at Sweet Heart's place so we decided to grab a pair" She said gesturing the Griffoness, who was smiling nervously at Kevin.
"Okay and who is this?" He asked.
"My name is Feather Fall..... my adoptive parents were Ponies..... and I also lived and worked at Sweet Heart's then after I heard my friend Glitter was going to work at the place of the Stallion that may have saved a dozen mares, i volunteered" She said as Kevin nodded and gave her a thumbs up.
"Fair enough, Pleasure to meet you" he said with a nod as she smiled softly and went back to cooking as Kevin walked to grab an Apple before sitting at the table next to Red.
Upon sitting, Kevin was rewards with a plate of scrambled eggs from Feather. "Here you go Master" she said happily as he shook his head. "Is something wrong with it?" She asked.
"No its just, i don't enjoy being called master" he said as Feather nodded and smiled at him before serving food to Red. "Why don't you both sit and eat with us?" He asked as Glitter and Feather looked at each other for a moment before serving themselves some food and sitting at the table.
"Thank you Ma.... I mean Kevin" Feather said smiling at him.
"No worries Feather" he said as he ate.
"So Red says that you are Omnivorous" Glitter said as Kevin nodded as he finished eating which caused the three to look at the plate I shock before Kevin.
"Yea I am" he answered as he began on the Apple he had.
"Well good thing I'm here as I can cook some decent meat dishes" Feather said proudly as Kevin smiled at her.
"Awesome" he said before finishing the Apple as the others finished their food. "Well I'll be excused cause I want to have a walk around Ponyville" He said rising but as he went to grab his plate, Feather grabbed it and carried the plates to the sink to wash.
"Oh that reminds me, i have to help Sunset and Nyx with unpacking their things" Red said.
"Okay I guess I'll head out by myself" He said as he walked over and kissed Red on her forehead before he made his way to the front door. Upon opening the door, he came face to face with tall white pegasus mare in a black hoodie which hugged her e cup breasts tightly, her mane was a shortly cut blue colour.
"Kevin?" She asked.
"Yes?" He asked when suddenly she pulled him into a tight hug. "Wait Snow?" He asked as she nodded. "Um please let go" he asked as she shook her head. "No seriously, I'm still in bad shape" he said causing her to let go of him.
"Sorry" She said rubbing her arm. "I-it's just...... I missed you and you never gave me a chance to explain" She explained as she gently took his wrist. " May I have a chance to explain?" She asked.
"Sure I guess" Kevin said causing her to sadly smile.
"C-can we go gal over lunch?" She asked as Kevin cocked an eyebrow before pulling out his phone and as it was midday.
"Sure" he shrugged as she gently lead him into town.
Chapter 7 - Grandfather, Surprise
(Earth)
Within the ruined city of New York was a cathedral that housed a small group of men in black suits as if they were attending a funeral except almost all of them wore masks. there were just under half a dozen, with majority two rows behind a grey bearded bald man who didn't wear a mask but instead wore a pair of reading glasses on his face. Within his hands was a black book with a list of names, majority were crossed out. The man frowned as he drew a line through another name before closing the book and returning it to his over coat moments before a loud pop was heard along with a crash and gasp of pain causing the man to look up to see a red Alicorn whom was heavily wounded. "Ahhh Warsong, i see your scouting mission went badly" the man chuckled as two suited men from the back walked up and grabbed the Alicorn roughly and dragged him in front of the bald man.
"Grandfather please show me mercy" the Alicorn begged gaining the man's attention.
"Now why would you ask for my Mercy if you were exposed on your mission? Unless you didn't follow your mission?" He asked as WarSong didn't meet his gaze which only caused one of the men holding him to roughly grab Song's jaw and force him to look at Grandfather. "So why don't you tell me what.... You..... DID" he growled as his eyes flashed black for a moment.
"I.... I thought I could conquer the world for you m-my lord" he whimper as the bald man looked the man to Song's left who had short blue spikes hair and nodded causing the man to release Song and draw a pair of studded Brass knuckles and equip them before he slammed his fist into Song's Cheek.
"What did I order you to do WarSong?" He asked.
"Search for leach shards" WarSong muttered quietly as the blue haired man slammed his fist into his cheek again.
"Louder" Grandfather ordered.
"Search for Leach Shards" Song said.
"And did you?" He asked.
"No but....." WarSong tried to say before he was punched again but harder, resulting in a loud crack inside Sing's jaw.
"You were given a single task, Find Leach Shards, and you failed..... you have set back my plans by so much. So much so that I have to send one of my sons to do your job for you." He said as Song tried to speak but only blood and fragments of his teeth and gums came from his mouth. "Harvest him" Grandfather said which caused Song's eyes to widened as he was dragged off by the two men into a nearby room. "Alexander" the man called out as a man from the back walked up and knelt in front of his leader.
"Yes Grandfather?" The blonde haired man asked.
"I need you to complete Song's mission" Grandfather asked as the sounds of said Alicorn's screams could be heard.
"It will be done Grandfather" Alexander said before vanishing into th in air.
(Equis, Ponyville)
The mood was slightly awkward as Kevin and Snow walked along the road together in silence, neither had said anything since they reached the town, not even shared a glance. The awkwardness was getting to Kevin as he sighed loudly causing Snow's ear to rotate in his direction.
"So you look good for 33" he said causing her face to take on a slight hue of pink.
"T-thanks.... Um so do you" she said smiling softly at him before they fell silent again as they soon arrived at Sugercube Corner. "This place alright?" She asked as Kevin nodded causing her to nod slightly before holding the door open for him.
"Thanks Snow" he said as he entered, upon entering the pair found a empty booth to sit down in moments before the pink mare known as Pinkie Pie appeared next to the table.
"Oh Kevie you are awake" she happily as Snow giggled at the annoyed expression Kevin gave the mare.
"Don't call me that" he growled "And besides why are you happy that I'm up?" He asked her.
"Well now I can throw you a welcome to Ponyville party" she said which Kevin was about to save something but Snow placed her hand on his.
"He'll be there" Snow said giving Kevin a warm smile as the pink mare smiled before gasping and running out of the shop at high speed.
"And why did you do that?" Kevin asked.
"Well so you can make some new friends" Snow said as she gave his hand a squeeze making him sigh.
"Sure why not" he muttered. "You do realise that she was the only waiter" Kevin said as Snow looked around before face palming. "What do you want ?" He asked standing.
"Coffee and a slice of the lemon tart" She said to Kevin as he nodded and walked over to the counter where he was greeted by being pulled over the counter into a hug by his yellow stallion friend Carrot Cake.
"Cake! I am super sore" Kevin said as Carrot nodded and let go of him causing the human to fall onto the ground with a loud thud. "Ow" he simply said.
"Sorry Kev, but I just haven't seen you In so long" Carrot said as he helped his childhood friend to his feet.
"Yea I know.... didn't really know if anyone really wanted to see me after I was presumed dead a decade ago" he said as Cake punched his shoulder making him gasp and punch Cake in the jaw. "I'm sore your prick." Kevin said as Carrot rubbed his jaw.
"Yea I forgot but still" he said as Kevin groaned. "So what are you up to today?" The stallion asked.
"Well I'm having lunch with Snow Drop" Kevin said as Carrot cake looked over to Snow, who was talking to someone on her phone then turned back to Kevin. "Relax...... it's fine"
"Okay well be glad that Cup is at her mother's today with the foals" Cake said.
"Yea.... hey can I get two coffees and a slice of Lemon Tart?" Kevin asked as Carrot nodded which Kevin paid before returning to the booth he was sitting in.
"Yes so please come to SugerCube Corner as soon as you can." Snow said before hanging up and looking at Kevin.
"Who was that?" He asked.
"Oh just Somepony you need to meet" Snow said before taking a deep breath. "Well I guess I should begin explaining" she said as Kevin nodded. "Okay so you remember that I moved to Vanhoover?" She asked.
"Yea I do" Kevin replied.
"Okay so I got work for a noble to make Ice sculptures for her many parties, dad managed to gain work with the weather patrol also..... so things were good for a year until a nasty blizzard came through and my dad managed to shatter his wing when he flew into a building by mistake. " she said before taking a deep breath. "He was unable to fly ever again so I had to support us financially and it was incredibly difficult until I met this stallion noble.... he was incredibly nice with a moderately sized herd. He offered to help me if I joined his herd, which I did so after some hesitation..... turns out he was a Colt Cuddler and his herd knew this fact because they were all his close friends and he was try in to hide the fact his was gay from his family..... so when you rocked up and saw us together and kissing.... it was because his family was over and he had to keep up appearances..... I sent a letter a week earlier explaining this all but unfortunately mailmare that was carrying said letter got drunk and ended up in Griffonstone somehow." She said with a slight giggle.
"Okay but that doesn't explain the foal, and why you are back in Ponyville" Kevin said just a young white pegasus mare who Kevin knew as Frost and was friends with his baby sister walked over to the booth and smiled at Snow.
"Hey mum" the mare said kissing Snow on the cheek before she looked at Kevin. "Your AB's big brother right?" She asked.
"Yea I am" he said before looking back at Snow.
"Yes Frost, this is Kevin...... your Dad" Snow said causing both the white mare and Human to look at each other then back at Snow.
"WHAT!" They both shouted in shock.
“Yea…. I was kind of in heat that night we spent before I left” she said with a soft chuckle.
“But why did you come back to Ponyville?” Kevin asked.
“Well after the incident…. My partner at the time helped me open my open gallery in Canterlot and so when I had enough bits, i said my goodbyes and moved back here with dad and Frost but unfortunately before I could explain all of this to you…… I discovered that marked as KIA by the Equestrian Guard” she said as she sniffed softly.
“Well I'm not dead” Kevin said smiling softly as Snow gently took his hand in hers again.
“I know and you don't know how happy I am to be able to see you and touch you and talk to ou again” she said.
“Yea” Kevin nodded.
“So could we…. Maybe try again or at least pick up where we lefted off?” she asked hopefully as Kevin rubbed the back of his neck.
“I'm with Red” he said.
“I don't mind being in a herd…..” she was saying before Kevin cut her off.
“Yes but neither Red or myself are from Ponies” He explained.
“A lot of other races are pro Polygamy” Snow said.
“Yes bu….” he was trying to say before Snow cut him off by placing her hand on his lips.
“Please” she said, the look she gave him cut him deep as he looked over at Frost, whom was giving him a hopeful look making him sigh.
“Talk to Red then” Kevin said standing up from the Booth and exiting the building. Once outside, Kevin turned and began walking in a random direction, he immediately felt like an asshole from just walking out but he needed to get away from the looks that he was receiving. After an hour of walking, he was broken from his train of thought when his vision was suddenly filled with Red causing him to look up to his Big Mac standing in front of him, this confused Kevin until he looked around and saw that he had managed to walk from the middle of town and into Sweet Apple Acres.
“Hey Mac” Kevin said as Mac smiled softly and stepped forward before hugging Kevin suddenly. “I guess you missed me huh?” Kevin chuckled as Mac let go of him.
“Yea ah did” Mac said.
“How's Granny?” Kevin asked.
“She is inside baking right now” He said.
“Cool….. Um mind if I come inside?” Kevin asked as Mac chuckled.
“Sure Big Brother, come on” Mac said leading Kevin inside.
Kevin groaned as beams of sunlight pierced through the blinds and struck him in the eyes, he rolled over in an attempt to get away from the annoyance only to end rolling off Kevin's makeshift bed resulting in the man face planting on the cold timber floor. "Alright.... I get it" he groaned as he pushed himself up off the ground and looked around the lounge room which belonged to the Apple family, his head hurt and he felt like vomiting as he saw Mac passed out in a recliner with a mug half filled with cider. "So that's what happened" he chuckled as he attempted to stand only to fall onto the couch. "I guess my alcohol resistance is normal again" he said as he got to his feet again and rubbed his forehead.
Once his senses normalised, he walked into the kitchen to find AppleJack and the own known as Rainbow Dash passed out half naked under the table causing him to shake his head and opened the fridge and grabbed some supplies to cook food before returning to the stove and placed them on the counter next to the stove before quickly cleaning up the empty mugs and plates. Once cleaned, he gave the table a once over, mostly removing cyan feathers from it and dumping them on a empty counter before he began cooking. After a few minutes of preparing, he felt a burning sensation in his chest making him frown before he grabbed his bag and rummaged through it before retrieving a small vial filled with a small shining floating white orb, he looked at it before looking at the three ponies again before uncorking the vial and downing the orb causing him to cough while he put the vail back in his bag and the burning sensation vanished.
"What was that?" Asked a voice causing him to turn his head and see Granny Smith standing in her nightgown at the bottom of the stairs.
"It's Medicine" he said with a sigh before returning to the kitchen and began heating a pan.
"Why do ya need medicine?" She asked him as she walked over and turned the kettle on.
"Do you really wanna know?" He asked which Granny replied with a nods making him sigh. "Well it's complicated... but the short version is that, i... I somehow changed in Tartarus.... not just into a demon but something else when I became 25, something bad happened with me so I take this medicine weekly to help" he said as she looked at him concerned.
"Is there a cure?" She asked.
"Nope, the only thing that was found to even suppress it... well only lasts a week" he said with a sigh."don't tell anyone, no one knows save for a few friends in Tartarus, damn Red doesn't even know" he said as Granny patted him on the back gently.
"Ma lips are sealed, just look after ya'self, okay?" She asked as he nodded. "Good, now.... cover your ears" she said as she grabbed a pair of sauce pans. Kevin saw this and covered his ears as the elderly mare smacked them together causing the three ponies to awake with a start and Both AppleJack and Rainbow Dash smacking their heads against the table that they were beneath. "Come on you lot, ah could hear ya both from ma room and Mac, you vomited on ma Apron" She said as the three gave sheepish smiles while Kevin chuckled and went back to cooking. "Now today may be ya day off but ya three are gonna help me clean up the Barn" she said crossing her arms.
"And what about Kevin?" Rainbow argued only to winch and hold her head.
"He passed out playing chess with me, ah got AppleBloom to put him on the couch." Granny Smith said as she crossed her arms.
"Wait... I played chess with you drunk?" He asked as she nodded. "Did I say anything inappropriate? " he asked.
"No, ya just told me of some of ya stories when ya were a Guard" she said as Kevin nodded as he served up omelets for the ponies as AppleBloom came down the stairs and sat at the table and had a plate of food put in front of her.
"So the real question is... did I win?" He asked as Granny chuckled and shook her head. "Damn" he said with a chuckle before grabbing his head and groaned. "As much as I would love to watch you lot clean... I'm gonna get home before Red kills me" he said before hugging his family members and leaving the house. As Kevin walked down the drive he shuffled his hand around in his bag until he pulled out a small root which he snapped a part off and put it in his mouth before chewing it and sighing as his headache began to fade.
Upon reaching the town, Kevin noticed a few ponies around setting up shops and several day guards changing posts with night guards, not giving them a second glance, he continued until he heard a commotion making him turn to see a pair of day guards pinning a grey pegasus against a wall in an alley. Both stallions were earth ponies with a violet trim to their armour, the grey mare appeared to be wearing a Mailmare uniform but her satchel of mail was currently being searched by a third unicorn mare guard with the same trim on her uniform. Kevin looked up and down the street before he approached the alley but stopped when he heard them talking.
"Buck it isn't here" the Guardmare hissed as she threw the satchel onto the ground.
"What do you mean? The bits were suppose to on this mare, the plan was take the lizard and get rich" one of the stallions said.
"Maybe this whorse stole them" the other stallion said as he drew a dagger.
"No... she wouldn't have even known it was bits" the Guardmare said before she approached the mailmare and grabbed her by her yellow mane causing her to cry out but oddly didn't make a noise. "Well at least the mute spell is working" the Mare chuckled.
"So what now? We have no way to get the ransom without going to the drop location, and if we do that we are bucked" one of the stallions said.
"Buck, we have to find the Mare with the ransom fast.... we also need to be rid of this witness" the Mare said as she drew her sword.
"Now that's not a good idea" Kevin said causing all four ponies to look in his direction to see him recording them on his phone. "Cause if you kill her, then I kill you" he said calmly but with a smirk as he put his phone away.
"Kill him" the Mare ordered as both stallions drew their swords and charged. As the first stallion was upon Kevin, he crouched under the swing before grabbing the arresting brackets from the guard's belt, along with his spell pistol, within a moment, Kevin stomped the back of the stallion's leg causing his leg to bend before the human slammed his elbow into the stallion's face, knocking him out. The second stallion was about to thrust his sword when Kevin shot him in the hand making him cry out and drop his blade, once he released the blade, he grabbed his injured hand with his left hand which resulted in Kevin cuffing the stallions wrists before grabbing him by the back of the head and slamming his knee into the pony's jaw causing a loud crack and the stallion to cry out in agony as he head his broken muzzle in his cuffed hands. Before the Guardmare could react, she found the spell pistol barrel pressed against her forehead as it set off a little noise signalling it had recharged.
"Info.... now" Kevin growled.
"Spike is locked up at a cabin about three and a half kilometres east of Ponyville" she said as Kevin nodded before flipping the pistol over so he was holding the barrel.
"Thanks" he replied as he knocked her out using the handle of the pistol before he turned to the Mare with the crooked gaze. "I'm sorry you had to see that, are you alright?" He asked kindly as she nodded hesitantly before he picked up all of the letters on the ground along with her satchel and returned them to her. "Better run along ms" he said before he left the alley only to be confronted by a pair of day guards, except before they could say anything, Kevin removed his phone and showed them the video of the three guards attack it the mailmare making the two look at each other before approaching the downed guards and dragging them off while Kevin watched for a moment before he began his journey to Cabin.
Soon Kevin arrived at the cabin to find a pair of purple trimmed armour guards standing by the door, who upon seeing Kevin, drew there swords. "Halt!" One shouted moments before Kevin shot him in the knee and threw the hot pistol into the other Stallion's face. As the two guards were stunned, Kevin proceeded to dealing with them by slamming the first's head into the door and punching the other hard enough to knock him out but as Kevin opened the door, he found Twilight and Celestia both sitting on a luxurious couch sipping tea.
"Ahh Kevin, you have finally arrive" Celestia said moments before she used her magic to stop a chair that Kevin threw at her. "That was unnecessary" she said with a frown.
“Unnecessary? Un- Fucking - Necessary? I beat the hair out of five guards, crippled two of them for what?” Kevin growled.
“Because I needed to talk to you.” Celestia said as Kevin placed his hand on the old desk next to him. “N-now now, let's be adults about this” she said eyeing the large desk.
“And why didn't you just come see me?” Kevin asked with a sharp glare at the mares.
“Well you don’t like us” Twilight said.
“That is a fucking understatement” Kevin said as he sat on the desk. “Celestia has been trying to find ways to send me back to Tartarus and you…. Well you have attacked me and wanted to experiment on me” he said as the ears on both mares flatten against their heads.
“Now you see why we had to go to extreme measures” Celestia said.
“And the Mailmare?” he asked.
“Oh, Derpy wanted to help as she is a really good actress but she had managed to lose her voice lady light” Twilight said.
“I see, so what did you need to discuss with me Celestia?” He asked her moments before she produced a folder and floated it over to him making him grab it and open it to see several sheets of paper. “What is this?” he asked withdrawing a birth certificate. “Why are you giving me my own birth certificate?” he asked.
“Well have you ever really looked at it before?” she asked as he shook his head. “Well look down at the Relatives, it has been updated recently to add one more pony” she said as Kevin inspected the form.
“Question, seeing as both you and Luna are on this as my ‘Aunts’ Why isn't the rest of the Apple family on it?” he asked.
“Because….. it would be several metres long” Celestia said with chuckle which Kevin smiled at before cocking an eyebrow at the form.
“So did you get a present for Luna Yet?” Kevin asked getting a confused look from the Alicorns. “What? According to the Date of Birth next to her name, her birthday is tomorrow” he said moments before both mares teleported away.

Chapter 9 - Presents and Fillydelphia (I probably misspell that...
Upon reaching his manor, Kevin slowly and carefully unlocked the door and entered only to be betrayed by the door slamming loudly making him groan moments before Glitter entered the entrance hall but as she was opening her mouth, Kevin moved forward and covered her mouth and pressed her against a wall while pressing his own against hers as he looked down the hallway listening carefully, once he was sure that no one else was coming he turned his gaze back to Glitter, who was blushing brightly as her tail flicked rapidly.
"Sorry Glitter, is Red home?" He asked as he removed his hand away from her mouth.
"N-no she isn't M... Kevin" she said as her voice cracked.
"What's wrong?" He asked concerned.
"I-it's j-just i didn't realise how strong you are" she said blushing more causing him to raise an eyebrow before taking a step back.
"Sorry, didn't want you to alert Red if she is here" he said smiling as she nodded. "Where is she?" Kevin asked.
"She is at Ms Rarity boutique" Glitter stated as the two entered the kitchen to find Feather Fall sipping a cup of drink while leaning against the counter relaxed only to have a mini freak out when she saw Kevin and Glitter enter.
"S-sir I...I didn't know you were home." She said nervously.
"Please just relax like you were just then" he asked as she looked at him for a moment and sighed.
"Thank you, not many stallions are as kind as you?" Feather Fall said before wrapping him up in a hug and nuzzling his neck only to turn bright red and dart out of the room leaving Kevin confused.
"Haha yea she is like that sometimes... um I'll just go check in her" Glitter said before running after the Gryphoness.
"Well that was odd" Kevin said walking to the fridge and grabbing some ingredients and began making himself food until a soft pop was heard behind him causing him to turn and see Luna with a party hat on, confetti in her flowing mane, a small colourful party horn sticking from her mouth and an unamused expression on her face.
"Hey Lulu, how are you?" Kevin asked as the Alicorn growled moments before all the colourful material on her was incinerated by blue flames. "Ah i see, wait I thought your birthday was tomorrow?" He asked as she walked over to his fridge and rummaged around in it.
"That's what my sister and the Elements thought until I corrected them that it was today.... I regret that decision" she stated grabbing a cold bottle of Cider and sitting on the counter.
"Oh so it's the 5th today?" He asked which Luna nodded. "Okay well I guess I'll give you your gift now" he said as he put his bag on the counter and looked through it before removing a small white egg and placed it in Luna's hand but upon touching her hand, it changed colour to a deep blue and black colour before doubling in size.
"What is this?" She asked confused.
"This is a Nightmare Egg, it reacts to magic and will alter to be alike to it's 'Mother' and seeing as an Alicorn is part Earth Pony, you have Magical running through your hands and feet" He said as the Egg began to hatch.
"N-nightmare?" She asked nervous.
"Its just a name, it's a type of Dragon which can make any creature freeze in fear, well to be honest, it has a breath that causes low level temporary paralysis" he explained as the Egg shattered to reveal a foot long two legged black Dragon with glowing blue stripes along with spine, belly and crest, It's head was covered in short soft spines. It looked around before looking at Luna and chirping.
"He is beautiful"she said gently stroking the reptile's head moments before it used the hook like claws on its wings to climb up Luna's top and sit on her shoulder. "What does he eat? Gems?" She asked causing Kevin to laugh and shake his head.
"No, nightmares eat Bugs, shellfish, fish, fruit, vegetables, bones, rotting meat" he said as Luna nodded while her new pet nuzzled against her cheek. "Also, it does die of old age, it will continue to grow until it is twenty times its size" he stated.
"I love him, Thank you Kevin" She said hugging her nephew.
"What are you going to name him?" He asked.
"Umm Midnight" She stated causing the Nightmare to chirp before it started cleaning itself.
"Nice" Kevin said as he went back to making his food, which gained the attention of Midnight which resulted in the small Reptile pouncing down and stealing the piece of Chicken that Kevin was slicing up "and you also need to train him" he said with a groan of annoyance.
"Okay, when will he begin speaking?" She asked.
"Nightmares don't talk" Kevin said before putting the rest of the ingredients away and grabbing an icy pole from the freezer as a knock was heard at the front door. "Who could that be?" Kevin asked before Glitter entered the kitchen followed by Celestia, Twilight, Sunset, Red, Snow, a dark pink unicorn mare, a Orange unicorn Stallion, a light blue unicorn mare, Cadence, Blueblood, Nyx, Fleur, Shining and the rest of the mane six. "What's the occasion?" Kevin said crossing his arms.
"Well Celestia tells me that you are the new prince" Red stated as Kevin placed his hand on the butcher's knife, resulting in a golden aura surrounding Blueblood and levitated him in front of Celestia. "Kevin please" Red said as she approached her partner and placed her hand on his, which was holding the knife.
"Aunty Release me" Blueblood said which resulted in Celestia placing him down next to the kitchen table, gaining the attention of Midnight. As the small nightmare leapt onto the table and investigated the Stallion, Blueblood noticed him and raised his hand. "Horrid Beast."
"I wouldn't" Kevin said but he was too late as Blueblood attempted to smack the Dragon but Midnight dodged the attack then breathed a glowing blue breath resulting in the Stallion being stuck in the position.Midnight hissed aggressively at his attacker before Luna picked him up. "I warned you" Kevin stated.
"Mmm mmmmm mmmm" Blue tried to say through his closed mouth.
"What is that?" Twilight said walking over but was hissed at by Midnight.
"This is Midnight, my birthday present from Kevin... he is a Nightmare" Luna explained as the reptile growled and climbed into Luna's mane to hid.
"He is fantastic" Twilight said before looking at Blueblood. "How long does the paralysis last?" She asked.
"Well seeing he hatched twenty minutes ago, an hour" Kevin said.
"Wait he is that developed? How?" Twilight asked.
"His egg absorbed some of Luna's Magic" Kevin said. "Anyway what's this about me being a Prince, i thought I was an abomination?" He asked his Solar Aunt.
"I am sorry for the way I treated you, i truly am, will you ever forgive me?" She asked.
"Answer my second question first" Kevin said.
"Because I adopted you as my nephew" she said. "And before you as anything, you can't refuse it cause you were made a Prince twenty eight years ago" Celestia said making Kevin groan.
"Shit, fine what ever, also who the fuck are pinkie, ginger and Blur?" He asked he asked pointing to the three unicorns.
"Oh well this is Starlight Glimmer" Sunset said pointing at the pink one who looked uneasy. "This is Starburst" she said pointing at the overly happy orange stallion. "And this is Trixie" she pointed at the unimpressed Blue Mare.
"Right, so.... why the fuck are they here?" He asked with a frown.
"Well seeing as you won't let me study you, i thought you would let St...." Twilight was saying but was cut off as the Butcher Knife barely missed her face and was impaled in the wall behind her. "Or not" she said giving a nervous smile as the other ponies looked wide eyed at Twilight then at Kevin.
"No" he simply said before walking out of the room.
"Nice Twilight" Rainbow Dash said crossing her arms.
"Hey, I'm trying to make sure he isn't a threat still" she stated.
"Twilight, if he was, all of us save for Red would be dead... maybe Luna and Snow would be safe" Nyx said before going after Kevin.
"Twilight, i have a rest for you" Celestia said.
"Yes Celestia?" Twilight asked.
"You have to become Kevin's Best friend and stop trying to study him, no ifs, no buts and no maybe's" Celestia said.
"But... but..." Twilight attempted to protest but Celestia stopped her.
"Twilight Sparkle, you are the Princess of Friendship and you shall be Kevin's Best Friend or else " She said making the purple Alicorn grumble.
(Kevin)
"I can't believe she is still fucking at it" Kevin said as he entered his room and tossed his dirty top off his form. "And now bloody Celestia and this Prince bull" he growled as he searched through his satchel for a top only to come up empty handed so he tossed the bag across the room before going to dresser, which got stuck causing him to growl and rip the draw out, damaging the dresser. "I need to calm down" Kevin muttered before taking deep breaths.
"Hey Kevin" a soft voice that Kevin recognized as Nyx said.
"Hey Nyx, let me guess you have come to tell me I was an asshole and shouldn't have tried to turn Twilight into a pin up?" He asked as the black Alicorn walked over and grabbed a top from the broken drawer and handed it to him. "Thanks"
"No, i actually came to check on you cause I was worried about how you'd be feeling" she stated as she watched Kevin pull his top on.
"And why do you care?" He asked curious as he sat down on the edge of his large bed.
"Cause you cared about me when I was lost" she said smiling softly causing him to groan and fall backwards onto his bed.
"It was the right thing to do" he muttered.
"And yet your the only one that tried to when Everypony else turned their back" she said sitting next to him.
"It's what I do, don't question it cause i don't understand why I bloody do it" he sighed moment before a knocking was heard "What?" He asked.
"Hey Kev, it's Fleur... May I come in?" She asked.
"Sure why not" he said as Fleur, Snow, Sunburst, Starlight and several other of the ponies entered his room. "Great now it's a Party" he said sarcastically.
"Listen Kevin, i know you're not in a good mood but you should really think about what Twilight is off...." the one known as Sunburst was saying until a large red hand covered his mouth.
"I wouldn't" Red said as she pushed past the group and sat on the opposite side of Kevin that Nyx was.
"Why don't you like Twilight anyway?" Starlight asked causing Kevin to sit up?
"Why?" He asked back receiving a nod from the mare. "Well let's see, she brings both Red and myself to Equis to save everyone's ass, but instead of a thank you, i get threatened, ordered to give up all my possessions, demanded that she experiment on me, Banished from my home town, Attacked... Twice and when I saved her fucking ass from becoming a fuck toy.... for a second time, still no thanks" He said.
"But maybe you should forgive her, seeing as brought you back to Equis." Sunburst stated.
"That's the only reason I haven't killed her" he growled making the th re new unicorns gulp. "Now if you lot are going to continue with your little crusade, then fuck off. If not, there is Cider in the fridge down stairs" he said before laying back down, the three unicorns looked at the other ponies before Fleur spoke up.
"He is saying get out" she said as she watched the three ponies leave before she looked the door and walked over to Kevin.
"So why are you here anyway Fleur?" He asked looking at the model.
"Well I was in town visiting Storm and then I bumped into Sunset which was when she introduced me to Red, Nyx and I saw Snow again." She said as Kevin gave her a thumbs up.
"How is Storm?" He asked sitting up.
"He is fine, a little annoyed you haven't gone to see him yet" she said crossing her arms.
"Yea... seeing as works at Twilight's place, it is a bit annoying" he replied.
"Oh that reminds me, Snow asked me something" Red said slightly leaning on Kevin. "So are you okay with herding?" Red asked making Kevin groan.
"Sure, why not" he said and turned to face Snow but before he could say anything a loud scream was heard. "The fuck?" He asked jumping up off the bed.
"Whats wrong?" Nyx asked confused.
"You didn't hear that?" He asked them which they all replied by shaking their heads resulting in him grabbing his bag and heading out of the room and to the front door. Upon exiting the building, he looked around and saw a massive bright green glowing coming from the southern horizon.
"Kevin what is with you?" Red asked as the mares caught up.
"That" he said pointing to the glow.
"What?" Red asked confused.
"The glowing" he stated.
"What glowing?" Snow asked causing Kevin to frown as he pulled out his armour and coat.
"Fine, what's in that direction anyway?" He asked the group.
"Fillydelphia" Fleur stated as Kevin nodded as his hands began to glow a soft pink.
"Kevin no your body can handle a teleport That..." Red was trying to say before Kevin teleported away. "Far".
(Fillydelphia)
Kevin grunted as he landed on the white Sandy beach, his skin was red and steaming as he panted loudly for a couple moments before he felt the cool evening air against his hot flesh making him sigh. "Ah so we see thku noticed the power surge also?" Asked a familiar female voice.
"Valkor?" Kevin asked as he looked around to see a human woman in a black armoured dress, she had massive raven wings, her fingers were clawed and her eyes that of an eagle.
"Tis us, yes" she said smiling as she helped him up before placing a Hand on his red skin, moments before her hand was surrounded in a black mist and Kevin's skin returning to normal. "We see that thou has changed to be a mortal again? Thou didn't tell us" she said with a slight frown.
"Well it wasn't my choice really, this weird crystal got stuck in my back then it shattered and these strange pink tendrils borrowed into my legs" he explained.
"We see, tis seems thou encountered a Leach shard, very dangerous to a non deity" she said as she ran a talon down his chest, slicing open his top. "Did thou's medical advisor remove the forming crystals inside thou?" She asked.
"Forming Crystals?" He asked.
"We'll take that as a no" Valkor said before placing a hand on Kevin's bear chest resulting in a sharp pain to surge through him briefly until she pulled her hand away to show the small pink stones in her hand. "Tis complete, it will take sometime for thou's body to recover" she explained.
"Thanks Valkor" he said smiling.
"No worries, now why didn't thou take thou's dosage?" She asked crossing her arms.
"I did take it" he said.
"We believe thou, it would appear that we need to alter the dosage to work on a human rather than a high level demon" she said scratching her chin.
"How long will that take?" Kevin asked.
"Twenty minutes, plenty of time for thou to defeat the being attempting to escape" she said pointing to a hotel when it's second top floor was producing a bright green light.
"How come I can see that and none of my friends can?" He asked.
"Simple, The beast within Thou allowed thou to sense it when it wasn't suppressed" She said before placing her right hand against his chest.
"What are you doing?" He asked.
"Allowing thou's body to use more magic before burning out, also allowing thou to tap into thou's primal power" she said before waving her hand, making a portal open. "Thou must go stop the monster from escaping" she said.
"How do I know what it looks like?" He asked.
"Thou shalt know when thou sees it" she explained causing him to nod and enter the portal, once he passed through the gateway, it instantly sealed behind him he noticed the lack of light in the hallway making him squint.
“Okay now where's that light switch?” he muttered as he felt around the wall, discovering his objective in a few moments before activating which caused the lights to flicker on for a moment before they shattered, covering the ground in glass “Well I guess that is a no” he said as he slowly began to walk down the carpeted hallway.
After several minutes of walking, Kevin came across a door which he could see the green light leaking from the cracks, along with a muffled cry for help so without a second thought, Kevin kicked in the door to see a bound Brown mare in a police officer's uniform on her knees in front of a green haired Alicorn in a black suit and wearing a mask about to place his glow hand against her face, so Kevin did the only logical thing that came to mind.
“Ok fuck head” he shouted gaining the attention of both ponies before blasting the Alicorn in the chest,sending him through several walls. Once the Alicorn was away, Kevin moved to the mare and cut her free.
“Thank you” she said high in him.
“it's fine now get outta here” Kevin said moments before he was spear tackled by the Alicorn through a wall.
“Fuck you” Kevin said as he slammed his fist into the stallion’s face, breaking the mask and causing the Alicorn to transform into a green haired human. “the fuck?” he muttered before he was kicked in the chest, causing him to go down a floor into a deserted room.
“Die” the Human growled as he jumped down and intended to slam down on top of Kevin, but Kevin managed to roll out of the way causing the green haired Human to go through the floor.
“prick” Kevin said as he climbed to his feet just as a volley of green projectiles sliced through the floor where he was just standing. This caused Kevin to move up against the wall, watching the hole for his opponent except his opponent burst through beneath him and pulled down through the floor and tossed him across the room and through the door, causing him to hit the fire hydrant adjacent to the door, as the Human charged in for another attack except when Kevin moved to dodge, the attacker rotated his body quickly and kicked Kevin into the elevator doors, nearly busting the steel doors off their rollers. “Shit you’re fast” Kevin grunted in pain.
“Enjoy the trip” He replied gaining Kevin’s attention before he kicked Kevin in the chest, sending him through the steel doors, causing him to slam into the concrete wall behind it before he began falling down the shaft from the 30th floor.
“Tsk Tsk” said another voice before the sensation of falling left Kevin causing him to look around. “Come on Kevin, Valkor removed the dosage so you should be going beast mode” the voice added with a soft giggle.
“Kri?” Kevin asked moments before a human woman in a white armoured dress with white bat wings and white coiled horns.
“Hey dear” she said happily as she floated upside down.
“Are you here to collect my soul?” he asked her making her giggle.
“Oh sweetie, i may be the lady of Death but that doesn't mean everytime I come to visit, I'm here to take your soul” She said crossing her arms with a huff.
“Right so why are you here?” he asked.
“Well deary, the one you were fighting has stolen all the life force and souls from this city, i need you to stop him and release what he stole so that they may be restored” She said.
“He is too strong” he sighed.
“You just need to release the beast, here let me help” She said placing her hand on his chest causing an intense burning sensation to fill his entire body. “Have fun doggy” she said with a giggle as Kevin began to fall again except he was too focused on the sensation of his body tearing and breaking.
“Forgot how this feels” he growled in pain as he landed on the floor hard causing him to groan before rolling onto his hands and knees. His bag, armour and trench coat turned to a black mist and faded away as his body suddenly doubled in size causing loud cracks and snaps to be heard from his body as the remains of his shirt tore in two. Soon his skin began to split to reveal grey wiry fur, his jaw extended forward while his teeth sharpened. A soft growl was heard from him as he produced a ripple of energy which increased the speed of the transformation to instantaneously leaving behind an 8 foot tall grey Wolf man with a long monkey like tail covered in thorns. ‘Ow’ he thought to himself as he rubbed his chest before looking up the elevator shaft. ‘Time to die asshole’ he growled before he began to climb up the shaft
(Celestia)
A few miles north of Fillydelphia, a large white airship flew towards the the city, onboard was a dozen royal Guards, the Elements of Harmony, half a dozen Wonderbolts, the Royal sisters and Red. They quickly assembled after Kevin's teleportation in order to discover why he suddenly went mad but as they approached the city, they soon realised the gravity of the situation.
“Where are all the Pegasi and airships?” Rainbow Dash said leaning over the railing.
“I don't know, its unusually dark right now” Twilight said looking around.
“Did Kevin cause this?” Celestia asked moments before a giggle was heard from behind.
“Oh no, Kev didn't cause the darkness, although he did cause at least several hundred bits in damages” a voice said with pinkie pie level of happiness I her voice.
“Kri?!” Red shouted causing all the ponies to turn to see the white maiden.
“ ‘Ello Red” she said with a giggle.
“What are you doing here?” Red asked taking a step backwards.
“Well, i wanted to make sure you lot don't interfere” She said giggling causing several of the Guards to draw their weapons making her mock gasp at them. “Oh no, what shiny weapons you have, whatever am I gonna do” She said as she placed the back of her hand against her forehead. “Oh maybe this” she added as her eyes glowed for a second before the guards’ weapons and armour turned to water.
“What are you exactly?” Celestia asked taking a step forward.
“Well, i am your biggest fan…. Murderer” Kri said smirking.
“What did you call me?” Celestia growled.
“Tia wait” Luna tried to stop her sister but it didn't work.
“I called you what you are…. Killer” Kri giggled.
“How dare you, do know who I am?” Celestia asked, her mask nonexistent at the moment.
“We know exactly who thou is, Thou is a foal playing with forces beyond thou’s own species understatement” a second voice stated as a raven winged woman floated down next to the white maiden.
“And who are you?” Celestia asked, glaring at the two.
“Our Name is Valkor, Lady of Life and Sin” The raven winged maiden said.
“and I am Kri … and I am the Lady of Death” she said happily causing Celestia to take a step backwards while her eyes widened.
“W-What?” Celestia asked quietly.
“Oh she is fun” Kri said smiling moments before a massive green beam barely missed the airship. “Well we are here” Kri added as the ponies moved to the edge of the Airship to see a Green haired human by a large crystal charging a green ball of magic in his hand to attack.
“Who the Buck is that?” Rainbow asked.
“Better question, What is that?” Twilight asked pointing at a massive wolf monster carrying what appeared to be an elevator climb out of the floor and onto the Roof to the flank of the Human.
(Kevin)
‘Take this bastard’ Kevin thought before throwing the Elevator at the human, who noticed at the last moment and leaped out of the way only for the hunk of metal to slam into the glowing crystal, shattering it into fragments.
“What have you done?” the man asked as he staggered looking at where the crystal was before turning to face Kevin, only to find a large fist slam into his gut, lifting him off the ground for a moment before Kevin stomped him into the ground, fracturing the floor but before the Human could fall through, Kevin’s tail wrapped around the man’s chest and threw him across the roof but stopped when he slammed into a concrete wall. “Is that the best you have got mutt?” he shouted getting to his feet.
Kevin growled before as pink energy formed in his mouth before he roared, firing a massive pink beam at the man, slamming in the man and forcing him through the wall. After a few moments of silence, Kevin couldn't sense anything so he took a deep breath before his body was surrounded in a black sand, causing the sand to fall to the floor leaving Kevin in his human form, seconds before some of his clothes materialised on his naked form.
“Excellent work” Valkor Sao as she appeared in front of Kevin.
“Yea.. do you have the dosage?” he asked as she handed him the vial.
“What the Buck was that!?” demanded Celestia as the ponies landed on the roof.
“Val, whoa the fuck are they doing here?” he asked drinking the contents of vial.
“The Ponies arrived not long before thou fought against the human” Valkor stated.
“Great, so what happens now with Fillydelphia?” He asked.
“Well, we are about to join Kri in rebuilding this City and returning its citizens” She said before teleporting away.
“Great… now I have to do this by myself” He groaned as the Ponies and Ogre walked over to him but stopped when a loud explosion was heard behind Kevin, making him turn to see a large dust cloud were the human had died in.
“Thank you for that blast, you managed to reboot my sensors” a voice said as the sound of heavy metal footsteps were heard approaching through the smoke. “and I have managed to scan you all” it said moments before a 6 foot tall metal being emerged, it's eyes glowing bright green.
“What the Buck is that?” Rainbow Dash asked.
“What? Never seen a Synthetic man before?” It asked with a disturbing chuckle as it took a few nor steps forward. “Oh that is right, your world is primitive in comparison to my own” it said stopping.
“What happened to the other guy?” Kevin asked.
“What? Don’t I look handsome without my skin?” it asked. “Oh well, you win some, you loose some” it chuckled.
“What the fuck do you want?” Kevin asked.
“I desire you…. You are missing property and you shall be reclaimed” it said.
“And how do you plan on doing that?” Red said moving next to Kevin.
“Yea, you and what army” Twilight stated moving in front of Kevin with the other elements.
“Oh no army” the machine said before raising it's left hand creating a large pulsating green orb in its Palm. “But if you don't hand him over then I shall destroy everything within 8 miles of my location… your choice”.
Chapter 10 - Remnants, The Virus
‘ “Okay calm down, I'll come j-just don't harm anyone” Kevin said as he pushed passed the people in his way and approached the machine.
“Good, the sooner we are away from this world of War Criminals, the better” the Machine said.
“War Criminals? What are you on about?” Kevin asked.
“Well it's simple, this planet is the reason the why all life on the Human Core world is nearly extinct” He said.
“What!?” all the ponies shouted in shock.
“How did you come to this conclusion?” Celestia asked.
“Simple, 70 years ago, the human race sent a small research team to study this world and see if it was fit to start trade with, except within a few weeks, the team went silent so a portal was opened in the research facility to discover that they had all died of a super virus which transferred into our universe” He explained.
“Then how is it our fault that a viru we can't control moved over to your world? I'd call that careless” Luna said.
“Because the Virus was not natural… it was engineered to kill anything without magic… and guess what doesn't exist in humans or our universe?” the machine asked.
“Magic?” Twilight asked.
“Yes, in the first decade, 60 percent of life on earth was dead, 30 percent of the remaining were horribly mutated in monsters and the last 70 percent of the 40 percent of survivors were hiding underground in bio domes as no one is immune” He explained.
“Wait, how come Kevin isn't dead?” Celestia asked.
“Simple, forty years ago, a team of scientists attempted to recreate a weapon to retaliate, it needed to be immune so he bonded it's DNA with some magic we took from your world, then a few years later, Kevin was created in our largest settlement and he was adopted by our lead scientist… who is now dead just like her two sons and another forty million due to a portal opening from your world, the same portal that you used to steal him away released more of the virus” He said, the last part he yelled causing the ponies to flinch.
“I… I had no idea about this virus but if there is anything we can do to help your world, let me know” Celestia said.
“fine , your smartest mind, a person who fully understands magic and a VIP so you Don’t try something” He said crossing his arms.
“I'll go as I'm all three” Twilight said raising her hand.
“Twilight?” Celestia asked.
“Please Princess, this may stop them going extinct, build up relations, allow us to study their species and culture and also Sunset is capable of using the element of magic” Twilight explained, which Celestia reluctantly nodded in approval before Twilight walked up next to Kevin.
“Okay let's go” The machine said placing a hand on both Kevin and Twilight before they were crudely teleported.
(Earth, New York Ruins)
The old church was suddenly filled with a bright green flash followed by a soft boom before revealing the Alicorn Princess, Human and Machine, the instant Twilight was revealed, she discovered several rifle barrels aimed at her.
“Alex, What is the meaning of this?” Grandfather asked before coughing.
“Grandfather i know I was suppose to find some Leach stone and collect some magic but I found not only an expert of magic but also I found Kevin” the machine said causing the bald man’s eyes to widen before he looked at the cloaked man standing next to the Pony.
“Excellent my boy... Excellent” He said as he got up only for his legs to buckle, but he was caught by Alex. “Sorry… we don't have long” He said as Alex helped the man to a hatch behind the alter. “Let's go you lot” the infected man said as one of the masked men opened the hatch and gestured Twilight and Kevin to enter.
(Faust’s Sanctuary)
“This isn't good” the cream Alicorn muttered as she watched Kevin and Twilight be teleported away by the machine via a orb of magic. “I can't allow them to corrupt my knight with their influence” She growled as her horn glowed moments before a large red puddle was formed in front of her. The puddle was still moments before a skeletal hand emerged from the liquid before was coated in muscles and skin, once it had generated, the hand was surrounded in a red aura before it was slowly pulled it out revealing the rest of the skeleton save for its head.
After the being was constructed, it was revealed a headless human man which Faust then constructed plate armour around and a wickedly sadistic long sword. “Headsman, i require you to rescue the Princess of Friendship and my Royal Knight and Prince” She ordered as the Headless knight bowed before the plate armour turned to smoke and rematerialised on him. “Also, make sure to make sure that the humans won't be able to find a cure for the virus” She ordered before the Headsman bowed again and teleported away after grabbing his sword.
(Earth, 500 hundred metres below New York Ruins)
“Welcome to Sanctuary, the last Human settlement in the solar system” Grandfather said as they reached a large blast door, which opened to reveal a small room. “Come on” He said, entering the room but he then grabbed a hazmat suit and pulled it on. “Pony you will have to get in one… wait you have a horn and wings?” he said before shuffling around in his pocket before pulling out a large roll of duct tape. “Okay, you're not gonna like this” He said.
(Twenty minutes later in Biochemistry lab)
“Oh perk up Twilight” Kevin said looking at the Alicorn whose horn had pierced the helmet of the hazmat suit only for her horn to be taped up complete and her wings were also tapped to her form so the body part of the suit fit her. “Its better then them cutting them off” He said as she growled. “besides, you'll be home soon enough anyway” Kevin said as he sat down on a nearby chair.
“You mean, ‘We’ll’ be home soon” Twilight said.
“No I mean you, as this place is where I have to be whether I like it or not” He said with a sigh.
“No you are coming back to Equis, no ifs, no Buts, No Maybes” Twilight said to him as Kevin smirked softly but as he was about to speak the sound of fighting was heard outside the room as the two looked out the window leading to the hallway just as blood splattered across it causing the purple Alicorn to go pale “Shit” Kevin said as he tried to open the door only to find it was locked. “What?” He asked no one in particular.
“w-what's the matter?” Twilight asked.
“Doors locked” He said before turning to Twilight. “Strip!” He said getting an idea.
“What?!” She squeaked.
“Remove that hazard suit.” Kevin ordered.
“But I could infect the other humans” Twilight replied.
“I don't give shit about them, I have to protect you as you are the Element of Magic and if you die then Equestria is fucked” Kevin said as Twilight stared at him for a moment. “And I don't want to go to my friend and explain that I sat by and let his baby sister die” He said as Twilight nodded before she began to pull off the orange suit while Kevin grabbed a knife from his bag and walked over to her.
“What are you doing?” She asked nervously as he cut the tape holding her wings together.
“Sorry” He apologized.
“For what?... Ahhh!” Twilight screamed as the man ripped the tape off of her wings which managed to pull out several feathers causing her to collapse into him.
“Sorry” He whispered to her as she cried softly into him from the pain while he slowly and carefully removed the tape from her horn.
“Isn't this touching?” a voice giggled as Kevin looked to see Both Discord and Eris standing in the room.
“Why are you both here?” Kevin asked them confused.
“We have come to bring you both home after we noticed something was wrong” Eris said.
C
“How did you know?” Twilight asked as she looked up from Kevin’s chest.
“We came through with you, now shall we go?” Discord asked as he floated over.
“Take Twilight… I need to help my people” Kevin said
“Kevin?” Twilight asked confused.
“You do know that they are planning to use a weapon to kill Everypony on Equis?” Eris asked.
“Alright… I guess I have to stop them” He said as Eris grabbed Twilight and teleported away. “Why are you still here Discord?” He asked the Chaos Lord.
“Well one, I need you to forgive my daughter, Two, I need to make you immune to their weapon, Three, I need to fully restore your power if you plan to survive against the humans” He said to Kevin.
“Why?” Kevin asked confused as Discord waddled over and tapped Kevin on the head causing the man to feel a surge of power rush through him and turning his eyes back to their Red slotted version.
“Eris likes you and you cause a nice amount of Chaos” He chuckled as he grabbed Kevin’s wrist and drew several symbols into his flesh that caused Kevin to groan in pain. “Don't die” Discord said teleporting away as Kevin rubbed his sore arm.
“I need to make a list of who is trying to get with me because I am getting confused” Kevin groaned before turning to face the locked door as he heard gunfire from outside the room.
“There coming in from sub level eight!” a woman shouted moments before the sound of something screaming was heard and a burning figure ran passed the window and down the hallway. “Open the door and get the subject out…. Kill the pony”
“Shit” Kevin growled as he hugged the wall by the door just as it unlocked and swung open to hide him as two men entered the room in body armour, gas masks and wielding machine guns.
“Their missing” one said just as Kevin grabbed the second one and drove his knife deep into his throat causing him to gurgle out a cry for help which unfortunately for Kevin, the other guard heard before turning and opening fire, the volley of bullets tore through the dying guard and into Kevin’s arm that held the guard, resulting in the two collapsing to the ground. “The Subject has been found and is hos…” The second guard didn't get to finish as Kevin threw his knife into his throat causing him to gurgle and pull the knife free before collapsing to the ground dead.
“And is what? Private!” The Female officer asked as she came into the room with a flamethrower only to receive several bullets to the back as Kevin drew the guard on top of him’s side arm and use it against her making her collapse to the floor dead.
“Fuck” Kevin growled in pain as he got himself free, he examined his arm before using his knife, that he collected from the ground, to remove the several pieces of lead from his arm before using some of his limited magic to heal the limb. “Okay so they wanted to kill Twilight… great” Kevin mumbled as he pulled the shredded top and shorts off of his body and stripped the guard who had his gear in the best condition before putting on the equipment and exiting the room with the dead guards ammunition and side arms.
Once outside, he saw several dozen dead guards and abominations laying in the hallway. “Shit” Kevin said in shock before the radio he stole came to life.
“All units, the Weapon lab on sub level 8 needs to be cleared ASAP!” a Voice ordered as Kevin looks down the hallways to see a staircase at the end of the hall.
“Yes sir” Kevin said before running down the hall and into the staircase to see a sign saying ‘-6’ on the concrete pillar in front of him. “Okay so two floors” Kevin said before making his way down.
(Equestria, Canterlot)
“Tia please relax you are killing the mood” Discord exclaimed as he lounged with his daughter upon pink fluffy clouds as he looked at the sun princess.
“How can I relax? Kevin and Twilight are currently in a world that hates all of Equis… I don't want them to get hurt or lose them” She sighed.
“Kevin? I thought you didn't care about him at all? That is why you have been treating him like a criminal” Eris asked as she got a death glare from Celestia.
“I have never stopped caring for him, ever since I first laid eyes on him I adored him, my first thought was to take him for myself but I also knew about Pink Lady’s troubles with becoming with child after they had their first son… instead I made a financial account for him that he would assess when he married a mare… sort of a congratulations but as you know, he ended up in Tartarus.” She said before taking a deep breath. “I used money from the account to deal with the debts on Sweet Apple Aches and such in a sort of commemoration to the man… also the money has been the reason Equestria has been able to repair itself after all the madness that followed Twilight and her friends” The Alicorn said rubbing her eyes.
“Alright… that explains how Equestria isn't in debt but the next question is, why are you such a poopy to him?” Discord asked acting like a child.
“I… I.... you remember Sombra and Nightmare Moon… how I tried to help but it went down hill and they were banished… I feared the same if I showed Kevin compassion but to my surprise the man not only dominated Nightmare with ease but protected me against WarSong… I know I need to right my wrongs but, I fear I have caused too much damage trying to keep him away” She said with a sniffle moments before a large black portal opened above her and Twilight fell out of it onto Discord and Eris, popping their cloud.
“Discord… that has got to be the worse attempt to teleport ever” She groaned as she pushed herself to her feet and Celestia was able to see her damaged wings.
“What are you talking about? Dad’s been here talking with Celestia and Myself for the last couple of hours” Eris said shocking Twilight.
“W-what? But you just rescued Me and sent Kevin to stop the humans from destroying Equis!” Twilight said.
“What!” the three said loudly.
“Yes and now Kevin is going to use the Weapon against the humans” She said as Celestia looked to Discord, who looked at her.
“Discord, rescue Kevin” Celestia said as Discord nodded before vanishing into thin air.
Chapter 11 - New Order, Blood Moon
(Ponyville, Midnight)
It was quiet in the small rural town of Ponyville, the town was still and dark save for the few night guards patrolling the streets and the few intoxicated ponies walking home after leaving parties, bars or the local club but the silence was suddenly ruined when dozens of massive blue glowing portals appeared out of nowhere causing the guards to approach cautiously until dozens upon dozens of Silver armoured Male and Female Caribou marched out and proceeded to run to the edge of the town with siege defence equipment, the pony guards drew their weapons just as the portals closed.
“Knights! We have three hours until The New Order’s Troops will be here!” a tall white Male Caribou with a blood red mane ordered. “I want this town Evacuated yesterday, and set up the portal jammer, we don't want them dropping in behind us!” He bellowed before turning to a nearby guard who he dwarfed “You, Evacuate the town!” He ordered.
“Why Caribou?” The unicorn stallion growled moments before the ten foot tall Caribou grabbed him by the throat and lifted him off the ground.
“Because you little shit, there is an army coming to enslave your people, corrupting your bucks and raping your does, so shut the buck up and follow orders” He hissed dropping the guard.
“But why are you helping us? You are a Caribou!” The guard asked as he rubbed his throat.
“Unlike my Late father, I want to change the Caribou from rapists to well… not rapists. We have the potential to be great… if we didn't make enemies out of everydeer, unfortunately my siblings got the idea that they should ally with the Griffons, Diamond Dogs, Dark Elf, Ogres, Giants and Prance. And now they are planning to take the world in a single night, so I have spread my knights across all of your cities and towns to hold them back as long as possible” He said moments before another set of blue portals opened on the edge of town and more silver armoured Caribou exited with massive armoured beasts and equipment.
“R-right, I'll sound the alarm” The unicorn said as he ran away.
“Do hurry” The Caribou said as he approached the front line, he watched his knights slam their fists against doors and shout orders to the terrified ponies moments before a loud alarm sounded.
“What is all of this!” a voice asked causing the Tall buck to turn to see a mini black Alicorn and a Alicorn he recognised as princess Sunset Shimmer.
“You are to evacuate before you are invaded” He said moments before he was grabbed by a red hand and pulled to face a nine foot tall Red Ogre.
“Why?” The Ogre growled.
“The New Order’s army is planning to invade at 3 am, so I have sent my men and women to set up defenses to allow you ponies to escape” He said getting free just as he heard one of his knights call out.
“Incoming!” The doe shouted before a ball of magic slammed into the ground near a building, paralyzing several ponies and Caribou Knights.
“Bastard are attacking early” The Prince growled as his antlers glowed before a massive dome barrier formed around the town. “Get the wounded into the Everfree!” He shouted as another orb of magic flew towards the barrier and detonated on it. “Prepare knights!, The enemy can still walk through the shield” He said as the first line of knights drew swords and raised great shields as the second row laid down long spears while several dozen climbed on top of makeshift platforms with repeating crossbows.
“Shit you lot are serious about helping” Red said in shock.
“Yes, now go, we can only hold them for so long” He said as a dozen Diamond Dogs in crude iron armour charged through the barrier on all fours only to be cut down by steel bolts from the Archers and what appeared to be several repeating Ballistas.
“Right, Good luck” Red said before she ran off with Nyx and Sunset.
“I'll need it” He growled as another volley of magic blasted against his barrier just as a swarm of Griffons flew through the barrier but were cut down by bolts.
(Canterlot)
“How are you doing Shining?” Cadence asked her husband as he focused on the barrier, behind him sat Chrysalis who was channeling magic from several changelings around her into Shining, the streets were filled with silver armoured Caribou who were busy evacuating ponies to hidden bunkers while Thresal and bat pony guards were quickly supported by Solar guards.
“I-I'm good, I'm just glad Prince Danse’s Caribou Knights warned us” He said as Cadence watched a team of Caribou knights set up a strange crystal, that once set up, it shot a red beam into the shield, crystallizing it moments before Shining collapsed. “What is that?” He asked.
“It is a special Crystal that creates a crystal barrier with the same strength as an existing one to allow for long term shields while only using a fraction of the energy” A female Knight said. “As long as they don't open a portal inside of it, but as long as the portal jammer is active, we should be safe as long as these get magic” She explained before she returned to her team at the entrance to the city.
“How are we going to get out of this in one piece?” Shining asked as Cadence sighed.
“I don't know, I am worried for the Crystal Empire right now” She replied with a tearful expression.
(Everfree forest)
“Keep moving!” a guard shouted as the residents of Ponyville ran passed her.
“Where are we going to go?” A mare asked moments before a blue portal opened up in front of the group and dozens of bronze armoured soldier charged out.
“Scatter!” A guard shouted as the town guard charged at the New Order Soldiers while the stallions and mares scattered into the woods.
(Earth)
“Marine, behind you!” a Guard shouted at Kevin before he sprayed a burst of rounds into a abomination made of three people that was charging at the man from behind, causing the beast to fall to the ground dead. “Alright let's get to the… “the guard was saying before Kevin shot him in the head.
“Yea yea, shut up dick head” Kevin said as he reached the weapon lab to see a scientist setting up a cylinder for transport.
“Ah Marine, what happened to the sergeant?” The male scientist asked moments before Kevin shot him in the leg. “gah what the actual fuck?” He asked as Kevin removed his helmet causing the Scientist to gulp. “Subject 78X, W-why are you here?” He asked slowly dragging himself backwards in fear.
“I need the weapon you are planning to use against Equis” He said stepping on the Scientist's wound.
“Ahh alright, alright, its the cylinder on the table” He cried out as Kevin looked at it.
“What is it?” Kevin asked confused.
“It's a DNA Bomb, It will kill all fauna on a planet” He cried as Kevin shot him in the leg again.
“And you made this to use against Equis?” He asked as the scientist nodded. “Alright, how does one use it?” Kevin asked lifting the bomb.
“Why?” He asked before Kevin shot him in the groin causing him to scream out. “The Red button… The red Button” He cried in pain before Kevin shot him in the head and discarded the empty weapon.
“Thanks bro” Kevin said before pressing the button causing the screen on it to start flashing moments before a green pulse rippled from the device and Kevin’s right arm burnt where Discord had branded him. “Fuck! “ He growled, dropping the bomb to see the Scientist had turned to ash. “Well it works” He muttered before he heard a pop and a quiet hurray making him look around to see Discord. “Hello” He waved.
“Hello, what have you done?” Discord asked curious.
“I killed every animal on the planet to protect Equis” He said as Discord frowned.
“Okay, i believe Celestia wants a word with you” Discord said as He went to open a portal to canterlot only for it to fail. “Odd, wait here I shall be back” He said in a deep monotone voice before teleporting away, only to reappear moments later with a look of terror in his face.
“What's wrong?” Kevin asked.
“Equestria is under siege, and I can't help… I was only there for a moment and I felt my magic being quickly drained” Discord said.
“Alright, I guess i have to save the day again” He said as he began walking out of the room with Discord close behind.
“But how? I don't think I can teleport you back” He said to Kevin.
“Discord, this place is connected to a human research facility on Equis, so all we have to do is use their portal, go back and save the planet” He said as he entered an armoury and placed his bag on the table in the middle of the room.
“Okay but why are we in a Armoury?” Discord asked as Kevin opened his bag and started putting magazines of ammunition into it and several guns.
“Well I think I'm gonna need an upgrade” He said as he walked over and grabbed a large weapon off the wall. “Anti Armour?” Kevin read out loud before he put it into his bag. “Still happy that this is a bag of infinite holding” He said as he grabbed several cases of ammunition for the weapon.
(Ponyville)
“They're coming in from the southern entrance!” A doe shouted before several small balls of energy struck her in the back, stunning her.
“Release the Ursa Majors!” Danse ordered moments before the town hall exploded outwards as three heavily armoured star bears ripped their way out and immediately torn into the New Order soldiers.
“My Prince, we can't hold out much longer, ten percent of our forces are dead, thirty percent are wounded and fifty percent of the remaining have been paralyzed or stunned” A buck explained.
“We must hold out as long as possible to allow the ponies to escape” Danse said as a Giant slammed it's weapon into the Portal jammer resulting in dozens of portal opened and more New Order soldiers poured out. “Damn it, It's over” Danse said as his antlers light up and all of his knights suddenly vanished leaving him alone as he drew his sword and grabbed his great shield. “Come On!!” He roared before charging into the throng of enemies.
(Canterlot)
Celestia and Luna watched from a balcony as bright flashes of lights occurred above towns signalling their capture, the last to fall was Ponyville. “What now?” Luna asked her sister.
“I do not know sister” Celestia said moments before a loud thud was heard causing the two to turn around to see Twilight had tripped over a stack of books why she was frantically searching for spells to help. “we have no hope, I will send all the subjects in Canterlot to the moon to protect them including you before I surrender” Celestia sighed.
“What!? You can't be serious” Luna said.
“I am, once there only you can bring them back so I can't not force them back If I am broken” She said as her horn glowed.
“Tia wai. …” Luna didn't get to finish as a bright golden flash was produced from Celestia’s horn and every living soul in Canterlot was transported to the moon before Celestia used her magic on the Portal Jammer and destroyed it, allowing the invaders to teleport in as she teleported to the throne room and sat upon her throne.
“Ah if it isn't the whorse known as Celestia, you know the amount of bucks that want to take out their stress on you?” a White Caribou with a electric blue mane asked as he dragged a semi conscious Prince Danse “My little Brother did fairly well but not enough” He chuckled as he dropped the heavily wounded Prince. “Now be a good little bitch and get on your knees for your new king” He said cockily as Celestia spat in his face.
“Never” She growled.
“That's what they all say” He laughed as he took a step forward and raised his hand to strike her, causing her to close her eyes in preparation for the attack.
(Earth)
“How the honest fuck does this thing work?” Kevin said as he kicked the teleporter, Discord and Kevin had been looking at the amount buttons on the machine and came up fruitless.
“Is it plugged in?” Discord asked as he looked around.
“That's a stupid question to…” Kevin didn't get to finish as he heard the device turn on and Discord appear with a large smirk. “Shut up” He said as Discord entered the man's bag just as Kevin pressed several buttons causing the device to start whirling. “Its working!” Kevin laughed.
“Yes but what's the chance of it taking us back home?” Discord asked.
“Ah Fu…”
(Canterlot)
“.....ck” Kevin finished as he looked around. “Hey we are in Canterlot” Kevin laughed before noticing a faint familiar smell. “What smells like roast Verizon?” He asked.
Upon hearing the familiar voice, Celestia opened her eyes to find Kevin standing in a small crater where the Caribou king had just been standing. “Probably nothing” Discord said slithering out of Kevin's bag before looking to the unconscious Caribou.
“What do we do with him?” Kevin asked.
“May you heal him please” Celestia asked from behind causing Kevin to jump and rotate to we her soft in on her throne with look of utter relief. “Oh and thank you for saving me” She said as Discord and Kevin cocked an eyebrow at the mare as she pointed the the large blood stain around the crater Kevin made.
.
“Oh “ Discord and Kevin said
“So let me get this straight, I am gone for less than a day and the world goes to shit?” Kevin asked as he began to heal Danse “Actually shouldn't there be a horde of soldiers attacking right now?” Kevin asked.
“Fredric desired to be the first to rape the solar Princess” Danse said as he pushed himself off the ground. “The reason no deer else is currently storming in is because only Fredric and myself can teleport through the crystal” He said before looking around “Wait where are my knights?” He asked confused.
“They are in the moon with Luna, the Canterlot residents and a Changeling hive to protect them” Celestia sighed sadly
“Oh could everyone stop being so sad, I'm here, I'll solve this little problem for y'all… again… jeez I should start charging for saving the goddamn planet” He grumbled as his belt, armour and swords materialised on him. “You three work on getting Luna and the rest off the moon” He said as he drew a 50 calibre pistol from his bag.
“What are you going to do?” Danse asked confused.
“Show them they fucked with the wrong Demon’s family and friends” He said before waving his free hand, causing the crystal Barrier to shatter and fall upon the army below like razor rain. “I'll be back soon” He said as he casually walked down the stairs.
(Canterlot’s entrance)
The New Order army had set up camp in front of Canterlot as they waited for one of their leaders to be finished with Celestia, while they had fun with several mares they caught. “unhand me, you brute!” a familiar, purple manned, alabaster unicorn said as a pair of Griffons tore open her blouse and a Caribou wrapped his arm around her waist.
“Trust me bitch, it's gonna hurt less and be less humiliating if you don't struggle” He said in a deep voice.
“Yea, but I like me prey struggling” a voice said causing the Caribou to turn his head moments before a loud boom was heard and the Caribou’s face caved in on itself as the back of his head blew open. “But I prefer killing to raping any day” The voice chuckled causing Rarity to look and see Kevin but before she could say anything, she noticed something horrible, something that she hadn't noticed due to the Caribou threatening her… it was silent, the area around was thick with it making the mare look around to see the butchered corpses of all the New Order Soldiers. “Then again, I hate rapists” He said removing his top and putting it on Rarity, who after a brief moment, hugged him tightly before she began to ball her eyes out into his shoulder.
“T-they ruined my favorite t-tooop” She cried as Kevin rolled his eyes and gave a quick glance to the other females and captured males who watched the pair.
“Hey I'm sure you can fix it later, anyway, go into Canterlot while I go help everyone” Kevin said as Rarity nodded and kissed his lips briefly before running into the city with the other captives. “I really need to make that list.” He grumbled.
“A list for what?” a overly cheerful voice asked as Kevin looked to see Kri sitting upon a mutilated giant.
“Kri, well to figure out who and how many of the opposite sex at trying to get with me” He chuckled as the Lady of Death teleported over to him and wrapped her arms around his neck.
“Is that so? Well don't forget Val and Me… speaking of Val, she isn't all that happy with you Kev” Kri said with a playful smirk.
“Why is she not happy with me?” He asked as the deity licked the blood from his neck causing him to shiver.
“She is upset that she didn't get invited into your little fuck group, I'm upset about it also but not as much” She said into Kevin's ear.
“Hey it only got established less than an hour before I bumped into you both” He defended.
“Alright darling, but the three of us need to have a ‘chat’ when you are finished” She said, her tone and form taking on a far more mature form. “Anyway, let me guess, you desire to use Val’s crows? And for me to free your aunty and the ponies from the moon?” She asked as she kissed the demon’s neck causing him to blush brightly.
“Y-yea that be good” he said nervously as she took his chin in her hand and smirked.
“Your so adorable when you're frightened” She giggled before vanishing into thin air and Kevin exhaled loudly.
“Fuck” He said panting, Kri was nice and all but when she got angry, Kevin became very submissive to the goddess of death.
“Greetings, we see thou’s demonhood has returned” Val’s voice said as he felt her arms wrap around him from behind. “So tell us, why dost thou desire our darling crows?” She asked as her talons carefully drew circles on his chest, easily slicing through the armour on his chest as if it was nothing.
“I would like them to mark the New Order’s soldiers within Equestria” He said as he felt Val bite his neck, her sharpened canines easily puncturing his skin causing him to wince in pain.
“Fine, but when thou art done, thou art ours until we are satisfied thou ist sorry” She said liking the wound she gave him, healing it.
“G-got it Val” He said before she vanished causing Kevin to place his hand when she bite him only to feel immense pain from the spot.
“God damn” He rubbed the bite mark before he looked up at the moon to see it flash brightly. “Well Kri has kept her end of the bargain” He said.
“Oh course, also, seeing as you are freeing this land, i'll have my babies stop the invaders from retaking the land” Kri’s voice rang through the man's head.
“Okay, Luna is going to hate me” He said walking over to a clean bit of dirt and knelt down before removing a knife from his bag, once retrieved, he carved slowly, a rune into the palm of his hand and channeled magic into it, causing it to glow before drew a large symbol surrounded by runes using his magic infused blood. As it was completed, the blood began to glow white and Kevin watched the moon go from a crescent white moon, to a full Blood red Moon. “Time to Hunt” He muttered as his gear vanished and he transformed into his primal wolf form be for howling.
Around him, a plethora of red burning portal opened and dozens of creatures identical to Kevin, except smaller and hundreds of large crows. Kevin waited for a moment before he watched the forest and the surrounding lands light up with hundreds of small green dots.
Chapter 12 - Rage, Kevin Vs Delta
(Canterlot)
“Discord please help me” Celestia asked she was focusing her energy on trying to make contact with Luna to bring her back from the moon.
“I would love to Tia but something is draining my chaotic energy” Discord stated as Danse walked over and took Celestia’s hands in his own and channeled his magic into her.
“Thank you Prince Danse” She said smiling as the Caribou nodded in acknowledgement moments before a giggle was heard from the doorway causing them to turn and see Kri standing in the doorway with a smirk on her face.
“So adorable, Celestia and Danse sitting in a tree, F U C K I N G” She laughed as discord laughed also.
“What do you want Kri?” Celestia growled as the Goddess clicked her fingers and a bright flash of light occurred and everyone on the moon was returned. “H-how?” Tia asked in shock.
“Sweetie, unlike you, I am a literal god… I can do anything I want” She said with a smirk as Luna suddenly dropped to her knees holding her head.
“Luna!” Celestia called out before wrapping her arms around her little sister.
“I-I can't feel my moon” She whimpered as Celestia looked at Kri who stepped aside to allow all the occupants of the room to see the world take on a blood red tint.
“Don't worry, Kevin is just borrowing it” Kri said but before anyone could say anything, a large portal appeared and a dozen heavily armed humans stepped out.
“What? You are suppose to dead!” Discord exclaimed as the group moved to the entrance before Discord appeared in front of them only to be grabbed and thrown into a wall hard enough to create a crater.
“The Traitor used a DNA Bomb which destroys all fauna” The leader of the group said as Kri telephoned in front of him.
“Well I can't let you hurt Kevin” She said as her hand glowed and tapped the human on the chest which did nothing causing her to go wide eyed. “What?! You should be dead, no living being can survive my touch” She said as the human grabbed her by the face.
“We are not Living, we are Machine” He said before slamming the goddess into the ground hard. “Men, find the Subject and exterminate” He said as the humans headed out to find their target.
“Oh great, not only do we have a Bucking army trying to take over the world, we also have a Demon that has taken over the moon and a group of deathless people hunting him down” Danse said. “How can this get any worse?”He asked moments before a portal opened and several New Order soldiers exited with swords drawn. “Never mind” He growled and grabbed a sword to fight only to watch the soldiers turn and point their swords towards the portal.
“Close it!” One shouted moments before a massive wolf rushed through and tore one of the group in two as several crows flew through and attacked the Griffin of the group who tried to escape the wolf by flying away.
“We are scre…” The Last member was saying moments before a second Wolf came through and wrapped it's jaws around his head and crushed it like it was nothing moments before it turned around and returned with its meal through the portal with the other wolf, which held both parts of it’ victim in its jaws and dragged the dead Griffin behind it with the crows pecking at it.
“Well damn” a Pony guard said before throwing up.
“Danse!” Celestia said as the Caribou closed the portal behind the massive beasts.
(Synthetics)
“Alpha, you have experience with combating X ray, tell me how is his combat skill?” the leader asked as the group marched through the streets as the inhabitants got out of their way.
“He isn't the best of fighters from when I fought him Lemer” Alpha said as Lemer nodded.
“Alright Delta, you go find him and destroy him while the rest of us go to the lab and retrieve Mike through to Zebra along with the War Machine… we have to avenge our parents” Lemer said before a bald one nodded and watched the eleven others turn invisible before he sprinted off at high speed.
(Ponyville, Sweet Apple Acres)
“how is the shield holding?” a Caribou asked a New Order Unicorn as he was channeling his magic and that of several other unicorns’ magic into a large force field that was assaulted by a large number of massive wolf monsters and crows that had managed to rip apart and devour half of the New Order’s forces in the region before they retreated, half of the remaining was currently hiding inside Ponyville while the rest were scattered to the wind as the monsters hunted them.
“It's holding sir, but we can't teleport out without dropping the barrier, but if we do them we lose ground… I hate to say it but we are going to have to leave the prisoners” He said before he winched as the wolves clawed furiously at the barrier.
“Fine, buck Equestria if they have to live with those beasts everyday, Darius will understand” The Caribou said as he looked at the Barrier just as a massive version of the Wolves passed through the barrier. “What!, How?” He shouted in shock as the beast transformed into a hooded figure.
“Evening boys, how are you lot doing?” The hooded figure asked as his face say for his glowing red eyes and white dog like teeth could be seen under his hood.
“A-ah well quite terrible really, your friends are ripping us apart” The caribou said as the hooded male clicked his fingers, causing the barrier to crystallize.
“Sorry, they just love Venison, Chicken, Cheral, Fragrant and more” He said with a chuckle.
“U-um what is Cheral and Fragrant?” The unicorn asked.
“Fragrant is dog meat and Cheral is horse meat” He said with a smirk causing the new order soldiers gulped. “Now seeing as I have secured the barrier, I think I shall go home” He said walking passed the group and towards the farmhouse as the Caribou and ponies drew their weapons and charged at the hooded figure only for him to quickly rotate and draw a long blade and slice the attackers in half with a single swipe. “and I'm not interested in dealing with you lot” He growled before sheathing his blade and continued walking towards the house.
Once he reached the house, he placed his ear against the door and listened carefully. “Let her go!” Kevin heard Big Mac shout moments before He kicked in to door and entered to find a Griffin pinning a familiar Pink on pink mare. The Griffin, Big Mac, Cheerilee looked to Kevin, the Griffin had his pants dropped and was preparing to have his way with the Teacher while Big Mac was chain In the corner.
“Who the buck a..” The Griffin was saying moments before Kevin teleported in front of the Griffin and wrap his clawed hand around his prick moments before tearing it free while grabbing the Griffin and slamming him down to the ground through the kitchen table “Aah!!!! Let go of mmph!!!” The Griffin screamed In pain before Kevin forced the soldier's dick down his throat before he began to strangle him, allowing his clawed gauntlet to slice into his throat as he thrashed about trying to get the demon off of him.
“What? I thought you enjoy choking people with your cock?” Kevin said before snapping the Griffin’s neck, killing the rapist before he stood up and walked over to His little brother after he wiped the Griffin’s blood on his pants. “You okay Mac?” Kevin asked as he free the large red Stallion moments before his hugged Kevin.
“Thank ya big brother” He said as Kevin patted him on the back.
“No worries bro but I think you need to help your girlfriend” Kevin said as the stallion nodded before going over to Cheerilee and untied her before the two hugged. “Where is Granny?” Kevin asked as the two looked down and went quiet. “Mac?” He asked.
“They… she was murdered by one of their Unicorns” Cheerilee said as she watched Kevin growl.
“What did the bastard look like.” Kevin asked.
“His name is Flim and he is currently locked in the barn with his brother, several Caribou, AppleJack and Rainbow Dash” Mac said as they watched the demon step outside and walk over to the barn. “Kev do you…” Mac tried to say before they watched him grab the doors and rip them off their hinges.
“Which one of you Cunts is called Flim!” Kevin roared as he looked at the group of new order soldiers who were pulling in their clothes, the two elements of harmony and several other mares were unconscious on the floor half naked.
“Why I am” A pale yellow unicorn stallion with a red and white mane said. “why do you…” He didn't get to finish as a powerful blast on magic, causing him to fly through several hay bays and through the other side of the barn.
“Broth… gahh!” the other unicorn stallion cried out as Kevin teleported forward and tore his horn from his head and drove it into his neck before being thrown into a pair of Caribou soldiers.
“Not only did you lot kill my fucking grandmother, you raped my baby sister” he roared tearing the throat out of another caribou, Mac and Cheerilee could only watch from the house ands several Caribou tried to run out of the barn before being grabbed by a pink aura and pulled back in before blood sprayed from inside shortly after screams were heard, after several minutes, Kevin exited with the mares in his magic and holding Flim by his throat. “Take care of them” He said placing the mares on the ground near Mac after and Cheerilee before dragging the stallion to the fence and binding his wrists ankles to it.
Once bound, Kevin broke his horn and walked off into the orchid to find a pair of Diamond Dogs tying up the cutie mark crusaders as another pulled them out of their tree house.
“Oi, bitches!” Kevin shouted when he was close, causing the three dogs to turn before one discovered himself lobotomised by a unicorn horn, the second was grabbed around the neck and had a armored arm forced through his gut until it grabbed his spine and ripped it out through his stomach. The third dog suddenly vomited before Kevin drew his 50 Calibre pistol and shot the remaining Dog in the groin, followed by a shot to his head.
“Are any of you hurt?” Kevin asked as he holstered the pistol as the young ponies shook their heads. “Good, now go to the farmhouse” he ordered as the group nodded and all ran to the house as Kevin grabbed the three corpses and dragged them back to the house and then over to where he killed the new order ponies and dumped the corpses on top before he went to retrieve the bodies from the barn.
“Owww… brother?” Flim asked as suddenly he felt his blood run cold as he watched the demon drag a group of dead Caribou and his dead brother out of the barn over to a pile of corpses but instead of dumping Flam on top, he brought the dead unicorn and a stool over to Flim and dumped the mutilated corpse before Flim causing him to gag at the bloody remains. “W-what? B-but w-why did you do this?” he asked as tears welled up in his eyes only to have Kevin punch him in the jaw.
“Shut the fuck up, you murdered my grandmother and raped my sister!” Kevin shouted as he heard the Farmhouse door open.
“Kevin, AJ is awake!” Mac called.
“Alright, I just need to deal with this rat, keep everyone inside okay?” Kevin asked as Mac gave an uneasy look before nodding.
“eyup” He replied before going back inside just as Kevin sat before the stallion.
“Please let me go, I'll give you anything you desire!” Flim shouted, trying to bargain with the demon.
“Can you give me back my granny or give back my sister's innocence?” Kevin asked as Flim gulped. “I thought so” Kevin said drawing a serrated knife from his bag.
“Please!” Flim cried.
(Ponyville)
“AHHHHHH!”
“What the buck?” a caribou asked confused.
“It sounded like it came from the farm” A Diamond Dog said.
“The Captain is there, we have to save him!” a Giant said as he began running to the farm with several dozen soldiers followed.
“PLEASE MERCY!!”
“Come on, we are almost… a soldier said before stopping to see one of their comrades tied to a fence as hooded figured sliced off pieces of him while healing him. The rest of the soldiers froze in fear at the sight as several of them vomited.
“Oh it would appear that we have more guests?” The hooded figure said as he finished removing the Stallions lower jaw before burning the wound. “Here catch” He chuckled throwing the jaw at a caribou, causing him to dodge it and watch It hit the ground, but as he looked back the hooded figure appeared before him and drove it's hand deep into his chest before ripping out his heart. “Hmm, I thought it would be black… well I bet one of you have… “ He was saying before he was suddenly sent into the empty barn several hundred meters away by an invisible force.
“X RAY, I have come to euthanize you” A voice said as a tall figure materialized out if nowhere.
“Alright we have an all…” The Giant was saying before the new figure pulled out a 500 magnum and blew a hole in his head along with emptying the gun into several other new order soldiers while the others turned and ran as he holstered his weapon.
“Oh, and who the fuck are you?” Kevin asked pulling himself out of the ruins of the barn to see the skin on the human suddenly lift up a inch before turning into metal and lowering back against his body. “Fuck I forgot about you synthetics” Kevin growled.
“My name is Dean, also known as 343D or Delta” He said as Kevin drew his sword only for Dean to zoom forward and go to punch him before Kevin could blink. As Delta’s fist came close to Kevin’s gut, the knuckle extended an inch before it was pressed back in place when the machine's fist connected with Kevin, sending the demon flying at high speed through several rows of trees and landing near the entrance to Ponyville.
“Holy Shit” Kevin gasped as Delta reappeared above Kevin in an attempt to repeat the attack but aiming to put Kevin six feet under, literally, but the man managed to dodge and slice Delta across the gut, splitting the machine's stomach open resulting in several sparks to be seen before he grabbed Kevin by the collar and slammed his kinetic fist into the man’s sternum, sending him into Twilight’s castle, smashing through several walls and landing in her library. “Holy double Shit” Kevin groaned.
“Kevin!, watch out, there are some ‘machines’ coming to kill you, they hurt Kri because she was in their way so watch out!” Kevin heard Val’s voice in his head causing him to get to his feet and undo his belt as Delta steppes into the library.
“Delta huh? N-no your not on my list” Kevin said as his inhibitor belt dropped to the floor.
“What list?” Delta asked as he primed his kinetic fist.
“The list of people that are allowed to hurt Kri… her siblings and mother are on it but not you Delta, or Dean or whatever you fuck call yourself ” He said as he rolled his shoulders, causing them to pop and crack. “and I don't know if you know but, I don't take kindly to people hurting the ones I love, short she can be a real Bitch and a pain some times like her sister” Kevin said.
“Hey!” Val said in his head as Delta launched and went to punch Kevin in the face but the demon easily caught his fist.
“But no one is allowed to hurt either of them… at all” Kevin growled as he crushed Delta’s fist causing all the built up Kinetic energy to shoot outwards and rip apart Detla’s arm before Kevin grabbed him by the neck. “I lost my grandmother today… so tell your boss to wait a bit before he sends more… actually, never mind, I need to blow off some steam” Kevin said slamming Delta into the crystal floor before his opposite hand was surrounded in burning pink energy. “fuck off buttercup” Kevin said slamming his fist into the machine, obliterating him before he straightened himself up and stepped outside to see the full New Order army pointing their weapons at him. “Fuck off” Kevin said clicking his fingers causing the crystal barrier to disintegrate, allowing his army to swarm in and tear the New Order soldiers apart as Kevin looked up to the setting blood moon.
“Nice work” Kri said appear beside him, she had a nasty bruise on her cheek but wore a sinister smirk “I have the locations of the bastards, you go deal with them and I'll clean up the rest of this New Order… then it's sex time” She said as Kevin placed a hand on her bruise and healed it.
“You really need to learn healing magic” He said as as she smirked more.
“You know I enjoy this version of you, the death dealing super power… it makes me feel intimidated. .. and turned on. “ She smiled as Kevin sighed sadly. “What?” She asked him concerned.
“These bastards murdered my grandmother “ He growled as a heavy blanket of rain hammered down over the carnage.
“I'll see what I can do, “ She said kissing him on the cheek as he nodded before summoning his belt and handed it to her before she tapped his head, transferring the location to him. “Have fun love” She said smiling before he teleported away.
Chapter 13 - Demon to the Rescue
(Canterlot)
“Bastard” Val muttered in annoyance as she watched the Blood moon set and Princess Luna relax as she regained connection with her precious moon “we’re not a pain in the backside” She mumbled before a pair of red velvet covered arms wrapped around her form.
“You kind of are dear sister” a voice said teasingly as the sound of a sword unsheathing was heard.
“Prince Danse would you kindly stop drawing your sword at every new pony that appears!” Celestia shouted in the background.
“Why hast thou cometh Mai? Did Kevin summon thee?” Val asked turning her body to see tall woman dressed in red silk and velvet, she had blood red eyes, long crimson hair and a massive pair of butterfly wings which were decorated in a multitude of different shades of red and pink, she was taller than Val and was much curvier then both her and Kri combined.
“Yes he did, seeing as my Blood moon increases his Feral form and his feral army” She said before she turned her head and looked at the Ponies, Caribou and Changelings in the throne room looking at her in shock and confusion before her eyes locked onto Celestia and she walked over to the Sun Princess and looked up and down. “Celestia I presume?” She asked as Celestia nodded, “Hmm it appears Kevin was not exaggerating about you” She said before she gave a bow. “I hope my baby sisters have not caused much trouble” She stated before she straightened back up.
“And you are?” Celestia asked.
“My name is Mai, Lady of the Blood Moon… sister of Kri, Val and Solis” She said smiling softly.
“You took my moon?” Luna asked as Mai nodded.
“Sorry about that but I needed to borrow it for the night” Mai said walking over and tightly hugging Luna.
“Um you mentioned a Solis?” Celestia asked as Mai released Luna and looked her way.
“Yes, The Lady of the Black Sun… You will meet her at sunset as Kevin has summoned her also” Mai said smiling as Celestia rose from her throne only to drop to her knees holding her chest. “Don’t worry you shall have your sun returned by sunset” Mai said as the world took on a silver tint and it grew cold moments before the sound of heavy flapping were heard causing all the ponies to run to the entrance and look out to see several massive spined dragons in the sky. “My sister has arrived with her Nightmares” Mai said as the flock separated and flew in different directions.
“Where are they going?” Luna asked.
“They are going to the home lands of the New Order” Mai said.
“Why?” Celestia asked.
“Retaliation for the Invasion” Mai smirked.
“Wait! That will only make this worse!” Celestia shouted.
“No she is following Kevin’s plan” Mai said smirking.
“And what is his plan?” Celestia asked.
“I don’t know he only gave me a part of the plan” Mai said.
(Ever free, human Research Facility)
“I have lost Delta’s signal sir!” Alpha said as Lemur looked at him confused.
“What? But I thought you said x ray was a push over?” Lemur asked as Alpha shrugged.
“I guess he got stronger” Alpha said as Lemur groaned as the Elevator they were in reached the bottom floor of the facility as the five Machines in the lift exited.
“Bravo and Kilo get the mech up and running so we can attack and obliterate this pathetic world” Lemur said as the two Androids nodded before running into a large hanger and began to prepare the vehicle. “Gamma, I want you to… “Lemur was saying before the sound of gunfire was heard followed by explosions. “Charlie! What’s going on?” Lemur asked through his radio as he simply received static from the radio moments before Charlie’s voice was heard.
“Lemur! He is here! X Ray is…” Charlie didn’t get to finish as the signal suddenly cut out and the gunfire silenced.
“Gamma, secure the Elevator, Alpha you get Kilo and Bravo to open the bay door” Lemur said as Gamma cocked his rifle.
“What are you going to do Lemur?” Alpha asked.
“I am going to use Zero to put an end to X Ray” Lemur as he moved over to the thirty foot machine and leapt up onto the machine’s head and entered it.
Gamma set up a barricade and knelt behind it with his rifle pointing to the as he watched the number on the screen next to the elevator slowly go down until it reached the bottom and opened to reveal several dead Androids causing Gamma to approach the lift and enter it moments before he was pulled up into the roof while he tried to shoot his attacker before he stopped moving and was dropped to the floor missing his head. “Bastard!” A mechanical voice roared before a volley of plasma filled the lift.
“Lemur we have got the bay door open!” Kilo shouted as the mech stood up as one of its many weapons smoked from recent use.
“Excellent, now let get to our mission” Lemur replied in a mechanical voice as he noticed something in the control room behind his three remaining comrades. “Look out!” He shouted just as the room filled with pink energy causing the window to shatter outwards before the energy cleared to show Kevin standing in the room alone. “DIE!!” Lemur shouted as the shoulder mounted cannon took aim and fired at the room, destroying the room just as one of the legs on Zero gave out and the mech collapsed to its knees while Lemur looked around only to see Kevin grab one of the mech’s arms and rip it free.
“Face me like a man!” Kevin shouted as Lemur swatted him into a wall as he reached up with Zero’s remaining arm to grab the edge of the bay entrance and began to pull himself up before the console inside the mech began to flash red.
“What?!” Lemur asked before zero was ripped back into the hanger before Kevin moved to the cockpit and ripped it open as Lemur grabbed his side arm only for Kevin to draw the sword that was on his back and drive it through Lemur’s head, killing him before Kevin the controls and noised several encased red buttons and started pressing the buttons before a voice sounded.
“Self-Destruct activated, have a nice day” A voice said as Kevin’s eyes widened and teleported away.
(Canterlot)
“So Solis has… “ Celestia was saying before Kevin reappeared, his clothes ripped and burnt and he quickly closed the Throne room doors and held them closed while smiling innocently at everyone in the room. “Kevin, what are you doing?” Celestia asked.
“Nothing, I totally didn’t do anything” He said moments before a massive explosion was heard resulting in all the windows shattering and both Celestia and Luna’s manes stopped flowing as everyone looked at Kevin with a raised eyebrow. “Okay technically I didn’t do that” he said as Mai walked over and pulled Kevin away from the door and opened them to reveal a massive mushroom shaped cloud deep within the Ever free with everything within a mile of it was ash or knocking down.
“Kevin” Celestia said as Kevin smiling nervously.
“Yes Aunt Tia?” He asked as a frown formed on the Alicorns face.
“Would you please fix that Kevin” Mai asked as she handed Kevin his belt before he nodded and was about to teleport away only for Kri to appear and grab Kevin before she vanished with him.
“I believe Kevin just got his revenge for those Machines hurting slightly Kri” Mai said looking to the mushroom cloud.
“Yes, we hate to witness what Kevin would do to an individual if they injured Red” Val said as the two shuddered before Mai used her magic to repair the windows.
(Several miles from the Griffon Border)
“Okay, mind explaining why you snatched me?” Kevin asked Kri, as they appeared on top of a high steep cliff, overlooking a train line leading into a heavily fortified Outpost belonging to the new order. Kri simply pointed to a massive Nightmare that was landing behind him, standing upon its neck was a tall heavily armoured warrior with black Dragon wings, long sharp black horns and a Zweihander Great sword in one hand. “Oh, why did you bring me to Solis?” he asked as the Dragon rider dropped from her mount and walked over to him.
“Tis good to see thou once again, but we have discovered that Red is being transported to the enemy nation and also that she is gravely wounded” Solis said pointing her sword to a massive train that was being escorted by several air ships and a battalion of Griffons.
“Kri, hold these” Kevin said he removed the inhibitor pins from his belt and handed them to the Lady of Death.
“Would thou desire us to deal with the outpost, dearest?” Solis added.
“Kill them all and make them suffer” Kevin said teleporting onto the train line a good two miles in front of the train as he tapped the Crimson gem and pointed his open hand at the Train before he squeezed his hand shut, resulting in the engine detonating a ball of fire and smoke as he untapped the fire gem and tapped a dark grey one and aimed his hands at the locomotive, causing the brakes to activate and stop the train a half a mile away from Kevin as the Griffons took notice of Kevin and charged as Kevin tapped a blood red gem and the crimson gem before the first couple of dozen exploded into boiling bloody clouds as Kevin extracted the iron from the blood to form hundreds of burning needles that he sent into the remaining griffons causing them all to scream out in pain and plummet to the ground as he began walking towards the Train.
(Train, a few minutes earlier)
“Leave them alone!” Sunset shouted as she was bound to a chair and watching one of the Leaders of the New Order both Red and Snow.
“Shut the buck up slut, you are the reason they being punished” The Diamond Dog stated as he hit Red in the jaw again causing her to spit blood back at him resulting in him hitting her in the gut.
“Then take your anger out one me then!” Sunset begged as the Dog walked over to her and grabbed by the throat.
“I can’t, you are supposed to be unharmed when we reach the fortress… but they didn’t say anything about no bucking you” He smirked as he drew a knife and cut her top open only for an explosion to be heard and the train to stop suddenly causing the Dog to be sent forward and onto the ground causing him to rub his bleeding snout and push himself back to his feet before hearing the sound of a multitude of screams of pure agony as Red started laughing causing the Dog to look at her confused. “Why are you bucking laughing!?” He demanded as he grabbed her unbroken horn and forced her to look up at him.
“My Partner is coming to hurt you… actually that may be an understatement” She smirked as he back handed her just as he watched from the skylight as one of the airships suddenly get crushed into a quarter of its size before it was sent into the other ship by an invisible force resulting in both to detonate.
“Shit!” He declared as he released Red and took a step back from her as a pair of Caribou ran into the car only for one of them to have half of his chest detonate into paste as the other was ripped back into the carriage he just left before his screams were heard for a good five minutes until being silenced.
“I’d run if I was you” Red advised as the Diamond Dog Drew his Short sword just as a blood covered Kevin entered the car while holding a actually spinal cord in his off hand.
“Why are you doing this?” The Dog asked as the man looked to Red and then at the dog’s blood coated hands. “Look, if I knew I wouldn’t ha…” He didn’t get to finish as Kevin sped forward and drove the spinal cord through the Dog’s shoulder, causing him to fall to his knees holding his shoulder. He looked up to see Kevin’s left hand glowing white before he grabbed the Dog with the hand as he started to beat him to death as his left hand fully healed him between hits while the dog begged for him to stop and to kill him. This brutal treatment continued on for a good hour before Kevin forced the dog to the floor and grabbed his arms, which he began to slowly pull as he held his victim down with his boot as Kevin slowly and painfully tore the New Order leader’s limbs off.
“Kevin… I think he has suffered enough!” Sunset shouted as Kevin looked to her as he dropped the dog’s arms and crushed his throat and let him suffocate while he healed Red and Snow and cut them free before cutting Sunset free and freeing her and Snow’s wings before he returned to Red and picked her up.
“Kevin I can walk!” Red said as he put her over his shoulder and picked up snow and put her over his other shoulder.
“Let’s go” Kevin said in an emotionless voice moments he entered the back carriages carrying the Ogre and mare with ease as Sunset followed. Once in the next car, Kevin saw the cages full of mares of different races which he turned and handed Snow to Sunset before he used his magic to rip open the cages.
“Kevin, please let me…” Red was saying before he interrupted her.
“No, I don’t want you to be taken again” He said as he moved to the next car and repeated what he did in the last car. Once all the prisoners were free, Kevin teleported the group back to Canterlot.
(Canterlot)
Upon appearing, Kevin simply sat Red on the floor before he walked over to Danse and grabbed him by his top before pinning him against the wall.
“Kevin what are you doing!” Celestia asked.
“Who are the Leaders of the New Order?” Kevin asked as Danse cocked an eyebrow causing Kevin to growl in annoyance. “You are one of the Caribou Royal family, so you must know their names at least” Kevin said.
“Um… King Black Beak of the Griffon, King Mountain Splitter of the Giants, Emperor Sombra, Prince Blue…” Danse was saying before Kevin dropped him onto the ground and turned to leave the Throne room just as Celestia teleported in front of him.
“Kevin don’t, there has been enough death and now it is time for…” She was trying to say before he teleported passed her just as a massive Nightmare landed on the steps to the castle and lowered its head for Kevin to mount it.
“Listen to me Princess, there is about to a change in management of this world, prepare for when I get back as I shall be bringing the leaders of the New Order here” Kevin said to her.
“Alive?” Celestia asked as Kevin shrugged.
“If they cooperate” Kevin said before the Nightmare flapped its wings and took off into the sky.
Chapter 14 - End of the New Order
“What the fuck has happened!?” The Leader of the New Order demanded as she slammed her fist against her desk as she looked her Generals watching her in fear as she rose from her seat and stepped out from behind her desk to reveal her enormous stature, she was a good ten feet tall, are covering her E cup breasts which was one of the few things that could recognize the Demoness as a women, her arm and legs were built like that of a dragon, her eyes slitted and red, her hair was long and white like the a large pair of bat wings were folded against her back. “Answer me!” She roared as she grabbed the Caribou king by his throat and lifted him from the ground.
“G-giant wolf m-men and cro-crows ripped our army apart” he choked out as she continued to squeeze.
“This tells me nothing” She growled as she squeezed tighter only to release after the sound of the deer’s neck snapping was heard before she looked to the remain four generals who took a step back. “I demanded this world to be turned into my new realm of lust after my last was destroyed by my teacher” She growled before a doe in very little entered the room holding a silver platter that had a letter on it. “Be gone you four and get a new king for the Caribou” she said tossing them the dead king’s crown before they left and the Demoness sat on her desk as the Doe hesitantly made her way over to her.
“Dominus libidinem… a letter for you” She said as she stopped just within her own arm length as she handed the Demoness the letter only for her wrist to be grabbed and pulled toward her.
“Good, now put your mouth to better use” She ordered as she pushed the doe to her knees and spread her legs while she opened the letter but before she could read it, she heard the sounds of screams and could smell freshly spilt blood causing her to shove her toy away from her and step over the cowering Doe just as the door was ripped off its hinges. “M-master!” She said shocked as she slid backwards on her desk as Kevin stepped into the room and approached the desk. “H-how are you doing?” she asked with a nervous smile as Kevin glared at her.
“I should have known it was you Abigail” He said to her in a disappointed tone causing the demoness’ long point ears to fall flat. “I thought I told you to stop this or do you enjoy me ripping off your limbs and reconnecting them?” he asked her as the taller demon flinched.
“B-but they summoned me a day ago to help them” she whimpered softly as Kevin’s glare didn’t let up so she changed tactics and started to crawl on the desk towards him submissively.
“Tell me where the original leaders of the New Order are!” he growled at her as she pressed herself lower against the desk.
“Y-yes… I can show you” she said as Kevin stepped back from the table, just as she slipped off the desk. “I-I’m sorry, please don’t hurt me” she asked him as he rolled his eyes and grabbed her by the back of her armour and lifted her to up.
“I am not in the mood, now let’s go” He ordered her as she nodded and teleported them.
(Caribou Capital)
Upon appearing, the two demons were instantly greeted by a magical barrier forming around them and several dozen males ranging from Diamond Dogs to Griffons. “Looks like the Dominus Libidinem has fallen into our little trap” A Caribou who was sitting upon the throne laughed as the rest joined in only Kevin to turn to Abigail with a frown on his face as she smiled innocently at him.
“Really? You are nowhere near strong enough to have that title yet, not to mention your mother still holds that title” He scolded before a volley of chains burst from the ground and wrapped around the two.
“Silence, you both shall serve me now as I shall take all your power” The King laughed as Abi cried out in pain as she felt her energy being forcefully taken from her while Kevin simply ripped the chains from his body with ease. “WHAT! Those were designed to hold some deer of that slut’s power!” The king shouted in shock as Kevin freed his student before turning to face the crowd.
“She is simply an AA plus” He said as he walked through the barrier as if it didn’t exist. “While I am a Triple S Plus” he said as energy formed around his hands. “Also, only I am allowed to hurt her” he growled.
“Kill him!” The King ordered as even more chains wrapped around Kevin’s form as several swords made of a pink crystal were forced through his chest before he could break free, making him gasp in pain.
“Bastard!” Abi shouted before the roof was ripped from the Throne room to reveal a massive black and grey dragon with spines and barbs covering its legs, neck and tail. Everyone fell silent as the massive beast looked at the scene before it roared loudly causing everyone to drop to their knees holding their ears just as Kevin broke free and back stepped only to drop to his knees making him look to see his wounds weren’t healing.
“Fuck, Leach shard” he growled as the Nightmare breathed a glowing neon mist onto the crowd, paralysing them before the Rider dropped down on top of several New Order soldiers, crushing them as she walked towards Kevin and placed her hand under his chin and lifted his head to her gaze.
“Tis what happens when one forgets to wait for assistance” Solis scolded as Kevin growled before she handed him a potion, which he drank and coughed as his wounds closed mostly while Solis walked over to the trapped Demoness and freed her. “Retrieve the leaders Abigail” Solis ordered.
“And everyone else?” Abi asked.
“Kill them” she said as she returned to Kevin as he was trying to get to his feet, only for the Goddess to force him back to the ground while her Nightmare climbed down into the room as Solis picked up Kevin and held him in her arms as he growled again.
“This is degrading” he grumbled.
“Silence, thou ist worse than an infant” she said as she looked around to see that the female Demon had pulled several males from the crowd. “Ist that all?” she asked as Abigail nodded. “Alright, Consume the rest my darling” She ordered her Nightmare, which stepped over them and proceeded to eat the soldiers alive before she looked back down at Kevin, who had managed to pass out.
“How did they manage to stop him from healing?” Abigail asked as she looked at her wounded teacher.
“They must of used a type of crystal known as a Leach Shard or Stone, I don’t know, but it has the ability to make anything into an D Class in its raw state while it’s refined state has a temporary effect… so we just need to get him back to his home town so he can be looked after” A voice stated causing the two to turn and see Kri standing above the paralysed leaders.
“Will he be okay?” Abigail asked.
“Yes but he will be out for a while” She said before she walked over to Solis, who handed her their unconscious friend. “Coming Abi?” Kri asked as the Demoness in question gulped and nodded before the three vanished into thin air along with the leaders of the New Order.
(Several hours later, Canterlot Castle, Guard Sickbay)
“Damn my chest” Kevin groaned as he opened his eyes to discover himself in a white room with a strong smell of disinfectant and bleach causing him to gag slightly as he forced himself up and looked around to see that he was hospital bed before he covered his mouth and nose and slipped off the bed. Once off, he began to walk away before something snagged his arm, making him turn to see he was connected to several machines resulting in him growling and obliterating them in a volley of raw magic before summoning his clothes and got dressed. “Fucking Twilight” he grumbled as the door was kicked in and half a dozen guards entered with swords and spears at the ready.
“Why heard an explosion” The sergeant of the squad said as Kevin walked passed them.
“I couldn’t stand the smell of bleach and disinfectant so I changed it” he said walking out only to be side tackled by a familiar snow Pegasus. “Hello Snow” he said as his face was squashed between her bust and against the marble floor.
“I’m so happy you’re okay” she said nuzzling the top of his head before she was pulled off the demon and Kevin was pulled to his feet by Red, who hugged him tightly.
“Alright, I get it, but let’s hug later” he said to them as they released him before he teleported to the throne room with the pair. As they arrived, the man was greeted with the sight of the New Order leader’s in chains and on their knees along with Abigail as Celestia glared at them. “What the fuck are you doing to my student?” Kevin asked gaining the attention of everyone in the room.
“Kevin what are you doing out of bed?” Asked Kri asked as she teleported over to him.
“Obviously my men failed to stab him through his bla… ack!” The Caribou was saying before Kevin wrapped an arm around the Buck’s neck and proceeded to tear both of his horns from his head.
“Speaking of which, I believe I have to repay the favour” Kevin growled as he gouged one of the deer’s eyes out with his own antler before he released the captive before dropping the antler on the ground. “Alright here is what’s going to happen, you lot are going to be replace with a female leader in spite of you all, your will then be imprisoned for the rest of your lives in Tartarus” He said as he moved in front of them.
“Kevin isn’t that a bit excessive?” Luna asked as the Griffon king spat in Kevin’s face.
“Buck you, we will never agree to your terms” he growled as Kevin walked over to him and grabbed him the jaw.
“I don’t need you to agree” Kevin snarled as he forcefully grabbed the Griffon’s face and ripped his head open before dropping his corpse to the ground and wiped the blood from his hands on his trench coat before turning his gaze to Blueblood and Sombra in the line. “Well everyone, save for you are going to Tartarus” He said to Sombra as grabbed the dark Unicorn by the throat and lifted him from the ground. “I thought I left you to be a fuck toy for the Abigail’s father?” He asked as Sombra whimpered softly before Kevin dumped him on the ground before drawing his sword and beheading the Unicorn.
“Kevin, what did I say about not spilling anymore blood!” Celestia shouted as Kevin glared at her.
“Right, so you want the leaders of an order that wanted to rape you into a cum dumpster for the rest of your life?” he asked as he grabbed Blueblood by the horn and forced him to look at Celestia. “Even your own fucking nephew wanted to use you… doesn’t that make you angry?” He asked her as the Alicorn frowned.
“Yes, but as a Princess I can’t do anything” She sighed just as Kevin slit the noble’s throat making her gasp.
“No, but I can” he said before turning to face the remaining leaders “Now who wants to go along with my plan now?” He asked as they all agreed including Abigail. “I wasn’t talking to you, you idiot” he said teleporting over to her and cutting her free.
“Kevin she is a Dem…” Twilight was saying before she discovered Kevin’s sword impaled in the wall next to her head.
“She is also my student and her parents are friends” he said to her as he turned to Celestia. “And I believe that it’s time for you to take over, as I suck at politics” he laughed before he teleported away, taking Abigail, Red and Snow with him.
(Ponyville, Kevin’s home)
“Alright, now get some rest you lot, you have been through a lot” Kevin said to the three as they appeared in the lounge room before he turned and went up the stairs and entered the study of the large home and locked it behind him before he slumped into the chair by the desk and buried his face in his hands while taking deep breaths in an attempt to relax as his mask shattered and he broke down. “I can’t believe a lost control” he growled as his wiped his eyes and rose from his chair and walked over to the attached bathroom and entered. Once inside he moved in front of the mirror and looked at his reflection. “How the fuck are they going to trust me and not be scared of me after what I did in the throne room?” he asked the reflection before sighing and removed his gear and ran a shower for himself before hearing a knock at his door.
“Kevin?” Red’s voice asked as Kevin sighed before pulling on his pants and turned off the water and walked to the locked door to the Study and unlocked it before he sat on the office chair again as Red, Snow, Sunset, Twilight, Celestia, Luna and Nyx entered.
“So, now you have seen what I truly am, a blood thirsty monster… Well done Princess, you were right” he said as Celestia frowned sadly and walked over to him before she hugged him tightly.
“I’m sorry” she said as Kevin cocked an eyebrow as she released him. “Red explained things… well not that much to be honest” Tia said as Kevin looked to Red, who walked over and gently pushed the sun princess aside before she straddled her partner’s lap.
“Right, how much did she tell you lot?” he asked them.
“Just that you went feral as Applejack was raped, Red was beaten to a pulp and your Grandmother was murdered” Luna said as Kevin sighed.
“Do you know what she meant by that I went feral?” he asked them as they shook their heads. “Okay, well it’s simple really, seeing as my body had blood of a demon wolf put into it, my body and well mentality was affected, my Eye sight, hearing and sense of smell drastically increased along with my stamina, strength and flexibility, but the problem that also occurred was my beast form, which I hide from Red until recently” He said before taking a deep breath. “Also mental problems started to arise, first I have become more numb to killing, incredibly aggressive, territorial, dominant and violent in combat… but the worst would be I have a sort of pack mentality, no more of a need to form one… and anyone who harms one of the members… well they die” He explained to them.
“Wait so you’re saying you have formed a herd without telling anyone?” Snow asked as Kevin shook his head.
“No, more like I have marked a number of people who I care about as being part of my pack, the Apple family, my childhood friends, Celestia, Shining, Storm Shield, Fleur, Cadence, Luna, Nyx, and my companions from Tartarus” He explained.
“Wait why Shining, Storm and Cadence?” Twilight asked in shock.
“I trained and served with Shining and Storm, and I befriended Cadence when she started dating Shining… a few years before I was trapped” He explained.
“Okay, so… “Celestia was saying to have Kevin continue.
“I become more numb and bloodthirsty when I go feral” he said. “Thus one of the reasons I keep Red close” he said as he wrapped his arms around the Ogre.
“Why?” Nyx asked.
“She is my control… one of the few things that can calm me down… also she knows all my weaknesses” he said as he received a round of nods. “So now you know what’s wrong with me, what do you want to do with me Celestia?” He asked her as all eyes turned to the Alicorn as she thought.
“all I ask is to have my nephew back and that if you could help rebuild and defend Equestria against forces that are immune to the Elements of Harmony… also at the upcoming Royal ball in Minos, I need you to come as not only are you royalty, but you lead a demonic force that single handily conquered several nations in retaliation… and you kind of have to technically return them to the new leaders of those nations” She said as Kevin nodded.
“Is that all?” he asked as Celestia nodded. “Okay aunty, as much as I love this chat, I am sore, tired and need food and a shower” he said as the Alicorn nodded before she left with her sister and Twilight. Once the three Alicorns had exited, Kevin got up from his chair and placed Red on the desk before he turned to the remaining mares in the room. “Yes?” he asked them as Nyx hugged him tightly before she exited with Sunset leaving behind Snow, who had a massive blush on her face.
“Um… can I join you in the shower?” she asked as Kevin shrugged and entered the bathroom.
“You both have fun” Red said hopping off the desk and exiting as Snow rushed into the bathroom only to stop and turn bright red as she looked at Kevin’s naked form.
“You have changed a lot… and the scars” she said in distress as she looked over the damaged form of her old boyfriend.
“Tartarus is not a kind place” he said as he ran the shower and stepped in just as Snow followed him in fully dressed. “Really?” he asked her as she cocked an eye in confusion before looking down and blushing brightly as she stepped out and stripped and quickly return to the shower just as Kevin looked her up and down making her blush even redder.
“One second” she said as she quickly exited the shower and stripped before she re-entered only to have Kevin wrap an arm around her waist.
“I’m sorry for jumping to conclusions in Vanhoover, if I had known… I would have moved their and supported you and help you raise Frost” he sighed as the Pegasus hugged him close.
“But we have fixed what we had, you can help me look after Frost and we can be a family” Snow said smiling softly as Kevin nodded before she kissed him softly.
(Tartarus)
“Where did he go?!” A voice boomed as the hornless, one eyed Caribou king ran through the demonic forest, he had only been in the place for what felt like weeks, even though it was only a couple of hours, already some demons wanted to rip him apart and devour him.
“I have no idea, but when I get my hands on him, I’ll rip off his legs so he can’t run away anymore” Another voice said as the pair laughed while the Caribou tripped and began to roll down a steep hill before he landed in a large swamp. “Did you hear that?” The demon asked.
“Yes, this way” The first demon laughed as the quickly landed in the Swamp behind the Caribou. “There you are Brian” The large fat demon laughed as he began to walk towards the Caribou only for his foot to get caught in the swamp. “The fuck?” he asked as he tried to pull his foot free, only for it to start to sink. “Gen, help me” The fat demon demanded from the other thin bat wings monster.
“What is wrong Blobus?” Gen asked as he tried to move only to discover his own feet stuck. “Wait, where are we?” Gen asked his friend.
“Several miles east of the Rat Kingdom” Blobus said as Gen’s eyes widened.
“This is no swamp!” Gen said in fear.
“What are you talking about?” The Fat demon asked as Gen pointed behind Brian causing both the Fat demon and the Caribou to turn and see something rising from the mud. “Is that…” He asked only to stop when glowing red orbs form on what appeared to be a head of the abomination.
“aren’t you nice and fat ” the creature said as a long pale tongue emerged from the chest of the thing in a motion that resembled someone licking their lips as the three went pale from fear as the creature vanished into the sludge before appearing behind Blobus before it’s chest opened to reveal a void filled with jagged teeth.
“No plea…” Blobus tried to say before the monster’s hooked lips wrapped around the fat demon’s head and chest as his arms flailed and his muffled screams could be heard while the sound of crunching and gulping could be heard.
“So tender and juicy ” The monster said as the fat demon’s limbs stopped moving and were sucked into the black mass of sludge and mud before the abomination turned to Gen. “hmm, not much fat on you but it would be a sin to keep good friends apart ” It said as it lifted its left arm moments before the palm opened up into a teeth filled mouth as long talon like teeth formed on the tips of its fingers.
“No, mercy!” Gen screamed as the hand expanded and swallowed him whole creating a bulge in the arm as it was lifted into the air. Brian could only watch as the bulge moved down the arm and into the chest of the creature before vanishing.
“A bit too bony for my tastes ” the creature said as it gave off a belch. “Oh pardon me ” it said before turning to Brian before it cocked its head to the side. “curious, you shouldn’t be in Tartarus ” it said before vanishing into the mud and reappearing beside the Caribou and moved it’s right hand near him as it’s long tongue emerged from the palm and licked the Brian’s face. “Definitely not, you taste of the Over world ” it said before its entire body shuddered. “Such a divine taste ” it said as a mouth formed on its palm but before it devoured him, it hesitated before the mouth closed. “No, here is what is going to happen, I will let you live in exchange, you help me escape ” It offered as Brian quickly nodded. “Good, now, eat this ” it said as a purple flower quickly grew out of its shoulder.
“What is it?” The Caribou asked as the creature plucked the flower and offered it.
“It will heal you and make you stronger, as you will need it” it said.
“Okay, why do you need my help?” Brian asked.
“I am unfortunately trapped in this pit, but if you get some special things, you can free me, and in exchange I shall make you all powerful and help us escape ” it said as Brian ate the flower.
“Wait, will you help me take my revenge against Equestria?” Brian asked?
“My boy, I shall help you take over the world ” it said as it offered it’s had as Brian’s horns and eye reformed except his horns and eye were a toxic purple colour. “Do we have a deal? ” it asked as Brian took its hand.
“Yes we do” Brian shook the creature’s hand.
(Several days later in Tartarus, Warning Gore)
“Mors?” Brian asked as he slid back into the pit of sludge while looking around. “Mors, I have brought the items you desired” Brian asked as he looked around and spotted something that nearly made him vomit. On the other side of the pit Brian could see what appeared to be a Vampony slowly sinking into the muck with a look of absolute terror on her face as she gasped constantly in pain, the front of her chest was completely missing revealing her vital organs or at least what hadn’t been removed, the places where organs were supposed to be were replaced with corrosive sludge that was dissolving her alive.
“Ah splendid Brian! ” Mors said as a figure the sludge pulled the female beneath the surface. “Dump them on me ” He said as Brian did.
“Wha-what were you doing to her?” Brian asked as all the sludge started to be sucked into a pile after the items were absorbed by the mass.
“She was the last of group who attacked me ” Mors said as the mass began to condense into a humanoid form. “Did you bring the clothes and mask I asked for? ” He asked as Brian nodded and tossed him the bag, which Mors attempted to grab but missed as the bag connect with the chest area before it was consumed. “Hmmm I need to improve at that ” he muttered as the cloths formed on his body before the sludge transformed to skin. “How do I look? ” He asked as Brian was shocked and slightly terrified.
Mors was wearing a red suit with a red tail coat, a red top hat and on his face was a white mask that had a large smile on it but nothing could be seen beneath it and the eye slots where semi circles that only Mors’ red eyes could be seen. His body was similar to that of the demon that crippled Brian except he was thin and he wore white gloves on his hands. “Unnerving” Brian said without thinking as Mors chuckled.
“Perfect ” he said sadistically before he walked over to Brian and patted him on the shoulder. “Mind teleporting us out of this pit? ” Mors asked as Brian hesitantly nodded before the Caribou’s horns glowed at the pair teleported out of the pit. “Ahh it has been some time since I have been free ” Mors said stretching.
“Why were you in that pit anyway?” Brian asked him.
“Cannibalism, rape, Corruption and bring the wills and minds of my slaves… you know, the simple pleasures in life ” He stretched more.
“So what are your plans when we get free?” Brian asked.
“Ensure you become the king of your world in exchange for allowing me to do whatever I want ” Mors said looking to the Caribou.
“Okay, um which way?” Brian asked as Mors pointed in a direction before he began walking.
(Several hours later)
“How much longer?” Brian asked as he looked to the monster next to him as they walked.
“Nearly there, relax as hard part is over ” Mors said as he stopped them moments before shoving Brian away just as a massive three headed dog landed before him.
“What the buck is that?!” Brian asked as one of the dog’s heads tried to bite down on Mors, only for the beast to grab the head and violently rotate the head, breaking its neck and making the other two heads yelp in pain and jump back.
“Cerberus, one of the most powerful S Class creatures here ” he said before his long squeezed through the mouth slot in his mask and licked around the mouth of the mask before retreating. “And I bet all those cakes have made you nice and chunky ” he moaned as Cerberus swatted Mors away but the monster righted himself before sludge from his shoulder before it took shape in the form of a fifteen foot barbed tendril with a stinger on the end.
“Wait, you want to eat it?” Brian asked as Cerberus charged only to have the tendril lunge forward and pierce through the dog’s chest before lifting the several ton creature off the ground as it whimpered and yelped.
“I do, I have always wanted to try it ” Mors said as another several tendrils formed from his back and impaled themselves into the guardian before the hound was torn to pieces while Brian gagged as it’s blood rained down, staining the soil beneath them and coating the two in the hot crimson liquid. “Come, try some ” Mors offered as another tendril formed and wrapped around Brian before pulling him close.
“I think I am good” Brian said.
“I was not offering ” he said as he forced the Caribou’s mouth open as the corpse of the dog was shredded into smaller chunks while another arm formed out of Mors’ back which forced the meat into the deer’s maw and down his throat as Brian gagged and struggled in vain as the meat descended down his throat before he gave a muffled scream as the hand in his mouth was clawing at his throat before Mors removed the hand while holding some flesh and muscles in his hand. “There, now you don’t have to worry about gagging anymore… and don’t worry about my sludge that entered you, it is just changing you into a carnivore ” Mors said as he released his companion before his hands expanded and opened up into giant mouths before he started devouring the Guardian of Tartarus.
“W-why?” Brian asked as he coughed.
“It makes it more fun ” Mors said as Brian suddenly grappled one of the severed head of the Dog and tore into it. “That’s the spirit ” Mors laughed as he finished off all the other remains before he sat and watched Brian consume the head and laughed manically.
(A few hours later)
“So did you enjoy? ” Mors asked as the Caribou nodded hesitantly before the two started to head towards a large gateway “Good to know, now let’s be free ” Mors said pushing the doors open before the two stepped through only to encounter a group of elite Pony guards pointing spears at them.
“Return to Tartarus Demons!” The leader of the squad ordered them before a tendril slammed into her chest and ripped through her body and continued for two metres before she was lifted of the ground.
“Send a message t…” A guard Sergeant shouted only to be cut off as the tendril holding his commander was slammed down on top of him as another tendril launched forward at the Unicorn guard who was about to send the message, instead of having a stinger at the end of the tendril, it hand turned into a fang filled maw which expanded and wrapped around the head, shoulders and arms of the unicorn before lifting her off the ground.
“Oh Celestia, RU…” the remaining earth pony shouted to the other two pegasi guards moments before she was grabbed by the face and slammed into the ground, splattering her head against the cobblestone as more tendrils formed and launched before wrapping around the pegasi.
“There, now you two have a choice ” Mors asked as the two watched as their friend being eaten suddenly stopped flailing as a sickening crack was heard and she was pulled into the gaping maw. “Surrender to me and be my slaves or join your tasty friend ” Mors said pointing to the corpse being consumed.
“Let them go!” The Sergeant shouted as he pushed himself off the ground while his arm hung limb and bloodied. “You bastard” he roared as he drew his sword and attempted to drive it through Mors chest, only for the blade to pass through him until his hand and forearm was buried in the abomination’s side. “Let me go!” He shouted before a loud crunch was heard and the stallion screamed out as he managed to pull his arm free except his arm had been bitten off at the elbow.
“Mmmm you lot taste so divine ” Mors moaned as the tendril that consumed the unicorn expanded and enveloped the stallion’s legs. “But I am feeling generous, I shall spare you three if you serve me ” Mors offered.
“Yes, we surrender!” one of the pegasi shouted as the other two survivors dropped their heads and agreed.
“Perfect, now time for initiation! ” Mors said as he lifted Sergeant higher and moved him so his head was the same height at Mors.
“What are you doing…?” The stallion was saying before Mors’ large pale tongue exited his mask and slithered into the stallion’s more and down his throat causing the stallion to go wide eyed in shock as sludge was forced into his throat while his eyes rolled into the back of his head before Mors released him and dropped him to the ground. Brian had just finished being sick from the display when he saw the Stallion suddenly get to his feet as his limp are rotated and cracked back into place while his severed arm reformed.
“See, it wasn’t so bad… and I am surprised that someone without a gag reflex can still vomit ” Mors said with a chuckle before turning to face the remaining Pegasi. “Who is next? ” He asked as both ponies screamed in fear while simply Mors laughed and Brian was sick once more.
(Minos, a week later, End of Gore… shit I have to do these warning now)
“Fuck that was the worst” Kevin groaned as he stepped off the train and stretched.
“It wouldn’t have been so bad if you slept” Sunset said as Kevin stuck his tongue out at her.
“Hey, I hate trains okay… and why couldn’t we just teleport?” Kevin asked as Celestia, Cadence, Shining, Twilight, Luna, Nyx, Chrysalis, the other Elements of Harmony and several dozen guards stepped off.
“Because, I quiet enjoy the train… also gives me an excuse to skip day court and those nobles for several days” Celestia said as the group walked to where a series of carriages where and separated into small groups before entering the vehicles.
“The suit… suits you Kevin” Pinkie giggled at her terrible pun as Kevin groaned and put his headphones in.
“Kill me now” he groaned as the Carriages continued up towards the Minotaur castle “So Celestia, why are the Annoyances of Harmony here with us again?” Kevin groaned.
“Hey!” Pinkie and Rainbow Dash stated offended.
“Simple really, they are here because they are a deterrent” Celestia said.
“What does that make me then?” He asked her.
“Apart from giving several countries back, if anyone tries anything or attacks the elements… you have the right to obliterate them” She said as Kevin nodded. “Also, try to be nice and refrain from calling the girls’ annoyances… one is your sister” The Alicorn said.
“Yes, but being stuck in the same carriage, slash, housing with them for the last while during this trip… well I got no privacy” He said as Dash smiled but before she could say anything, Kevin interrupted her. “Don’t you start again, you may be sleeping with my sister but I won’t hesitate to turn you into a rainbow coloured puddle” He said as the mare’s smile vanished.
“Wait, Dashie is bucking Jackie?!” Pinkie asked.
“Oh buck” Dash said moments before Kevin looked back to Pinkie, only to see she had vanished. “AJ is going to kill me”
“Where did she go?” Kevin asked looking around confused.
“She does that… a lot” Rainbow Dash groaned.
“Um okay then” Kevin said as the Carriage slowed down before stopping. “Looks like we are here” Kevin said exiting the vehicle and looked around to see that there were dozens of guards of many different races, most of who drew their weapons and aimed them at Kevin only for the man to ignore them and help the mares out of the carriage. “Looks like I am unpopular” Kevin said to Celestia as the Alicorn frowned and sighed.
“Yes I believe you are right, but anyway we best be going” She said as the rest of the ponies arrived and changeling queen before they began to walk up the steps with Kevin lagging behind and he looked around and stopped in his tracks when he saw a masked figure in a red suit staring at him intently, the being had its head cocked as it’s red eyes were locked on Kevin, but what was the most unnerving thing was the sense of familiarity towards the being that Kevin couldn’t explain and an overwhelming sense of dread. “Kevin” Celestia said gaining the man’s attention.
“Yes?” Kevin asked her.
“Are you coming or not?” Rainbow Dash asked as Kevin looked back to the masked figure only to see that he was missing.
“Y-yea I am” Kevin said turning back to the group as he ran up to them as they entered the castle.
“Ah so my replacement is living here… interesting ” The masked figure said from the shadows before he turned to the Purple horned Caribou next to him. “Brian, I wish to get some revenge, so tell me, where does the demon live? ” Mors asked.
“I believe he lives in Ponyville” Brian said. “Why do you ask?” Brian questioned.
“We are going to pay a visit to his home and pick up a present for him ” Mors chuckled as Brian nodded before he teleported the two.
(Ponyville)
“Well isn’t this place dainty ” Mors said as the pair appeared on the outskirts on the town.
“Yes… also it has some very attractive mares” Brian said as Mors shrugged.
“Yes, but we are after a specific target, a big red one ” Mors said as he looked around only to spot his target walking with a short yellow earth pony mare with a red mane that had a pink bow in her mane and a while short Pegasus mare.
“What are you going to do to them?” Brian asked as Mors began walking towards them.
“I only want Red ” He said as he got close to them, gaining their attention. “Long time, no see Red. ” Mors said.
“Do I know you?” Red asked as Mors chuckled as his right hand transformed into a long blade and in a blink of an eye, he swiped the blade across her chest, easily cutting through her skin, causing her to fall onto her back as she cried out in pain.
“Oh come now Red, how can you forget me? Your boyfriend tried to kill me before imprisoning me in that pit ” Mors said as Red’s eyes widened as she tried to push herself away from him.
“Mors!? B-but how?” She asked as she noticed Brian. “You Idiot! Why did you release him? He will only kill yo…” Red was saying before she was cut off as Mors forced his blade hand through her chest and lifted her off the ground while rotating her so she was face to face with him.
“Time to go see your mommy again, oh and tell her I said hey ” Mors laughed as long sharp spikes suddenly erupted from the blade and pierced several of Red’s vital organs. “Oh and before you think Kri and Val can save you, I have sealed Tartarus ” Mors laughed as he watched the light fade from her eyes before his hand returned to normal and he dumped her corpse onto the bloodstained gravel.
“You monster! You murdered my auntie!” The white Pegasus shouted as she charged at Mors, only for the monster to grab her by the throat and lift her off the ground.
“Auntie? So you are Kevin’s niece? ” Mors asked.
“No I am his daughter!” Frost shouted back at him defiantly which only made Mors laugh sadistically.
“Oh, well that gives me so many fantastic ideas for you my dear, but who might this be? ” He asked as he looked to the Earth pony mare moments before he grabbed her also by the neck and lifted her off the ground.
“That is one of the famous Apple Family” Brian said as Mors groaned.
“Then she is useless to me ” He said as a tendril formed out of his back and prepared to impale her.
“NO! She is my Dad’s baby sister!” Frost shouted in an attempt to save Apple Bloom.
“Oh well that changes things ” Mors chuckled before he turned his gaze to Brian. “I need you to teleport us back to our hideout and then back to Minos ” Mors said as he knocked the two young mares out by smacking their heads together, knocking them out before he dropped them both to the ground unconscious.
(Half an hour later, Minos)
“Fuck this is boring” Kevin groaned as Celestia addressed the crowd of nobles, the majority female due to the fact that most were replacements for either their husbands, brothers or fathers who were part of the New Order.
“And now, may the leaders of the following nations come to the stage so they may have their nations returned to them” Celestia said as she glanced down at a list. “Diamond Dogs, Caribou, Griffin, Dark…” Celestia was saying before she was interrupted by a loud obnoxious laughing resulting in everyone in the room to turn to a red suited masked man in the middle of the room. “Excuse me, but what is so funny?” Celestia asked.
“Oh… nothing, just thinking of something hilarious ” He said as Kevin’s expression turned to one of shock as he recognized the voice.
“What is hilarious” Celestia replied with a glare.
“How sade Kevin will be in a few moments ” The masked man said with a chuckle.
“What are you on about?” Luna asked as he revealed a bloodied bag from behind his back.
“Oh Kevin, say hello to Red ” He chuckled resulting in the ponies gasping. “Just so you know, she died alone, scared and suffering knowing that you could not save her ” He laughed a few moments before Kevin rose from his seat. “Come get me! ” The masked man taunted moments before Kevin appeared in front of the masked man and slammed his fist into his chest, sending him hurtling into the entrance to the hall and out into the courtyard.
“Kevin!” Celestia called out to gain his attention but she was ignored as Kevin picked up the blood-soaked bag and opened it moments before pink energy formed around Kevin’s body causing his clothes to slowly disintegrate as he incinerated the bag.
“Hahaha did you like my handy work? ” The masked man asked with a laugh.
“I’m going to fucking kill you Mors, and this time, Faust and Eli cannot save you from my wrath” Kevin proclaimed as his armour formed over his body, excluding his inhibitor belt.
“Oh I am shaking in my boots... wait i'm not wearing any boots ” Mors said before he burst out laughing again laughed moments before Kevin launching a burning projectile at him at incredible speed that slammed into the monster’s shoulder, obliterating it and sending Mors flying backwards and into a massive statue.
“KEVIN!” Luna and Celestia called out as Kevin ignored them again and marched towards Mors, only for a pair of Minotaur guards to stand in his way and try to stop him.
“Halt, we shall not allow you to destroy any more of the cas…” One of the Guards was saying before Kevin grabbed them both by their throats and tossed them aside before he continued towards his target.
“Tisk tisk Kevin, You must control your anger ” Mors scolded in a taunting tone as his shoulder and arm regenerated.
“I don’t give an honest shit” Kevin growled as he launched himself forward, only to slam into a large shield that Mors formed.
“Good, cause I’m not a toilet ” Mors taunted more as Kevin’s pink aura started to darken and turn red as he slammed his fist against the shield, causing large crack to form in it.
“Shut the fuck up and face me” Kevin demanded as he went to attack the shield again, only for his attacking wrist to be grappled by a magic inhibiting brace that was connected to a chain. With a growl Kevin looked over his shoulder to see that several soldiers with toxic purple eyes to be pulling the chain.
“You didn’t think I really tried to take you on alone did you?... i can kill you by myself, but i prefer to make you suffer and more angry ” Mors asked as he dropped the shield as slashed across Kevin’s chest using a pair of bladed tendrils that he summoned. “Now be so kind don't block this ” Mors asked as he shot one of the tendrils forward, only for Kevin to grab it resulting in Mors face palming. “Fuck I forgot that you can affect me physically… which I should have released when you hit me before ” Mors chuckled a moment before Kevin ripped the tendril from Mors and tossed it aside “Oww that really hurt! ” Mors whined before laughing hysterically before Kevin kicked him in the chest, sending him flying backwards. “And forgot that even without your magic, you are still incredibly strong, wow i am really forgetful today ” Mors said with a giggle as he looked up to see Kevin free his wrist and incinerate Mors’ soldiers.
“You are going to pay for what you did to Red” Kevin growled as red and black energy sparked off his body as he summoned his magic eater sword.
“Okay, now that is cheating ” Mors shouted in a mock hurt tone before Kevin launched forward once again and sliced across his chest, resulting in red blood to flow from the wound instead of slime. “Okay that is it! ” Mors growled as he summoned his own sword and used it to parry Kevin’s second attack. “Forgot you had that stupid thing made to kill me ” Mors growled as he attempted to run Kevin through but Kevin side stepped him and tripped him up, resulting in Mors falling onto his back.
“Time to die” Kevin growled as he placed his foot on Mors’ shoulder to hold him down and positioned himself to plunge his blade through the monster’s face but as he was about to Mors laughed hysterically once again, making the already infuriated demon to snarl at him. “WHAT IS SO FUCKING FUNNY?!” Kevin roared.
“If you kill me, then both your Daughter and your sister will die ” Mors said in a calm tone causing Kevin’s Aura to take on a darker shade of red before he stepped off Mors, but not before slashing the beast’s leg, making him yelp in pain.
“What do you want?” Kevin asked with a growl as he glared daggers at Mors.
“To have my revenge against you for locking me in that pit, but don’t worry, unlike you… I don’t kill my enemy’s family… Red being an exception as she crushed my groin with that bloody club of hers ” Mors said as he got to his feet and staggered slightly from his wounded leg.
“So… where and when?” Kevin asked as he pressed the point of his sword against Mors’ Mask.
“The Battle Field where you said goodbye to this land in a week ” Mors said as he took a step back while all the nobles and guards came outside to see the two and the destruction.
“I won’t be late… you better not fucking hurt them you piece of shit” Kevin growled as Mors chuckled.
“I promise… but I can’t say the same for my men ” He laughed and teleported away as Kevin attempted to sever the monster’s arm.
“Fucking bastard” Kevin growled as he sheathed his sword as summoned his belt causing the aura surrounding him to vanish before he tapped several of the gems and repaired the damage he had caused, once complete he turned his back to the crowd and summoned a burning portal before entering it, leaving the audience confused and in shock at what had just transpired.
Chapter 16 - Far From Home
It was a cold morning In the mythical world of Equestria, ruins of warmachines, mangled corpses and discarded items littered the fields between towns, towns were heavily destroyed by the fighting that had arisen days earlier by the fighting between the extremist movement that was formerly known as the ‘New Order’ against the Royal Knights of the now Caribou King, Danse Everwood, who managed to hold the line long enough for a counter attack to be dealt by the hero turned demonic lord, Kevin Jensen and his army of bloodthirsty demons.
(Ponyville)
On the edge of the small pony town was an old manor that had been taken by the Demon lord who was currently in the backyard of the house, sharpening his weapons. His scarred face watched his swords with a cold gaze with his old red eyes, he was furious at what he had let happen. His light brown and ashen hair was trimmed short and his beard was gone, his body was covered in his armour save for his right armlet of armour and his left gauntlet, his overcoat was hanging over a nearby chair along with his bag and his belt that allowed to focus his near unstable energy into a more stable form.
“Ma… i mean sir?” A voice asked causing Kevin to turn his slitted gaze to a snow white griffoness with a curvy form and in a revealing maid outfit that apparently she enjoyed wearing. “The Princesses desire an audience with you along with the Elements of Harmony.” She said with a slight bow.
“Thank you Feather Fall, please send them out here please” He asked her, who nodded before quickly vanishing within the building before returning with a dozen ponies. First to confront Kevin was his Aunt Luna, the eleven foot tall navy blue Alicorn with generous double f cup breasts and wide hips that was hugged by a sky blue dress. An Onyx neck piece and crown rested on her neck and within her flowing mane that was near identical to the night sky.
“I am so so sorry for you loss my dear” She said to him with a frown as she knelt down and embraced the demon, who dropped his weapons and wrapped his arms around her.
“Thanks Luna, I will avenge Red” Kevin said as Luna released him and helped him to his feet where the Alicorn princess known as Sunset Shimmer, who was slightly shorter then Kevin, had double d breasts, wore jeans and a loose fitting purple top that contrasted her yellow fur and slightly burning fire colored mane.
“How are you gonna do that?” Luna asked as Kevin held Sunset to his body with his heavily tattooed left arm.
“I'm gonna kill Mors” Kevin explained in a dark tone.
“How powerful is he?” The twelve foot tall alabaster Alicorn known as Celestia asked as she walked her, she wore a gold and white dress that hugged her g cup breasts and large cake filled ass.
“He is just as powerful as Kevin” A voice said causing all of the group to turn and look to a twelve foot tall woman with metallic silver hair, silver wings, a long thick silver tail and wearing a tight fitting pale blue dress that held her g cup breasts tightly. By her were two hooded figures, one close to seven foot and looking at the group with crossed arms while the other had large azure blue wings and was hunched over looking like he was gonna vomit. “Thus why I have brought help” She said gesture towards the hunched over figure.
“Ah don't think he’s ‘right” the orange farmer wearing a stetson, red flannel and tight jeans who was known as Applejack said.
“Oh shut I forgot about his think with other teleporting him” The other hooded figure said with a deep voice as he face palmed.
“Fuck” The other man groaned before belching causing the tall woman and other hooded man to step away from him. “Nah I'm good” He said standing straight only to look around.
“It's good to see you Rei but who are these two?” Kevin asked.
“This young man with the wings is Prince Jason Winter of another Equestria” She said as the winged man waved.
“And the other guy?” Kevin asked.
“This is the father of Kri, Mai, Valkor and Solis and he is my husband, Manus Everhart” She explained.
“Your last name is Everhart… sounds gay” Jason laughed.
“Quiet you” Manus said as he walked over wrapped his hand around Jason’s wing. “or I'll take off your wing”.
“Nah Twice this week by the same bloke is enough for me thanks” Jason said teleporting away from the other hooded man.
“Both of stop or else” Rei threatened as Jason spread his arms.
“or what?” He asked just as several undead knights appeared around him in a flash of silver with their weapons pointed at him. “Really? Undead against me?” He asked as his hands were surrounded in a dark purple, red and black aura before the Knight's turned to dust.
“Jason stop, we have a job to do and that doesn't include you picking fights with someone who lead me to believe that she was dead and also four of my children” Manus said causing Rei to recoil slightly.
“As I said, I am truly sorry my love” Rei said as she tried to embrace him only for him to step away from her. “Manus”
“Jason lets go deal with this and go home” Manus said as Jason nodded.
“Yes I hope Tia can forgive me for leaving when she was that pregnant” Jason said causing all the ponies and Kevin to look to Celestia, who was blushing brightly.
“Okay, You when and where is this demon going to pop up?” Jason asked pointing to Kevin.
“Um it'll be easier if I show you so be here tomorrow” Kevin explained.
“Manus please” Rei said grabbing the hooded man’s shoulder, who roughly pulled away from her.
“Don't fucking try me Rei, do you have any idea how many lives I ended from your little fucking stunt? Because of you, I caused killed some of our children because of everything that happened because of that stunt!” Manus shouted before grabbing Jason by the wrist and teleported away.
“That could have gone better” Kevin said before looking to Rei who was looking at her hand, that was holding her former mate’s shoulder while shaking lightly. “Rei?”
“What have I done?” She asked herself before she vanished into thin air.
“So what now?” Luna asked.
“I may have a good chance at defeating Mors and saving Frost and Applebloom now” Kevin stated with a shrug.
(Unknown Location)
“Fuck me sideways” Jason groaned as he appeared in a small cottage on his hands and knees.
“Sorry I should have warned you” Manus said with a sigh as he walked over to a small stove and lit it.
“Nah it's alright, where are we anyway?” Jason questioned as he got up.
“Another dimension out of Rei’s sight and we won't get interrupted by ponies” Manus explained as Jason got to his feet and walked over to the small table and sat down just as a mug of coffee materialized in front of him.
“Thanks, so who am i killing anyway?” Jason asked as he slipped out of the clock and ran his hands over his scarred and sun kissed face and through his dark brown and blue highlighted hair and beard as his azure eyes looked at his drink.
“A demon that has is an entity of death, but lucky it is incredibly weak to dark magic and necromancy as it is made up of corpse so a perfect resurrection will either kill it or make it mortal” Manus explained as he removed his cloak and wiped his oil skin while ruffling his dark purple hair.
“That will hurt” Jason sighed “but being away from my girls for a few years will kill me” He said putting his face in his hands.
“Look on the bright side, at least they are safe… I still have to deal with Rei and I honestly… it was easier when she was dead… cause I did such things out of grief and to avenge her only for her to reappear and just expected everything to be alright” Manus said throwing the pot across the room.
“Can't you shift time so time so we band aid this shit?” Jason asked as he sipped his drink as Manus sighed.
“Yes quick and painful would be better the slow and agonizing” Manus said with another sigh. “Let's go” He gestured as his hands glowed for the briefest of seconds. “Ready?” Manus asked as Jason removed his cloak to reveal grey plate armour that covered his body save for his chest.
“Yea but I just need a weapon” Jason said.
“You shouldn’t require one but I'm sure you can get one from any guard” Manus said to Jason, who nodded.
“Okay, we kill Mors and then… what?” Jason asked with a shrug.
“Let's figure that out later” Manus said as he opened a portal.
(Ponyville)
“Okay so what? We just knock?” Jason asked as he approached the manor front entrance.
“That would be the best option” Manus said as he dumped the cloak he was wearing to reveal the loose top he was wearing and dress pants.
“Okay, here we go…” Jason started only for the front door to open to reveal a short black alicorn mare with a silver and gold trim that shot through her mane and tail.
“Jason and Manus?” She asked.
“Yes” Jason said with a nod.
“Come in, breakfast is just about ready” She said as she stepped aside and let both men inside.
“Alright…” Manus said as the small Alicorn lead the men into a large kitchen where Sunset, Kevin, Luna and two other mares. One was a snow white Pegasus, who was wearing only a Hoodie that was too big for her while she leant against Kevin while the other white unicorn mare was white with a faint pink hue to her coat, her face was slim and was wearing stylish sunglasses. She was wearing a loose black top that wasn't made for her and her panties.
“Fleur Di Lis” Jason said gaining the Unicorn’s attention.
“Yes?” She asked looking to the man along with the rest of the occupants.
“Sorry just I know someone like you from where I live” Jason said as he sat down in a spare seat while Manus stayed standing.
“Right… also I hear you are the cause for Princess Celestia being extremely flustered” Fleur said as she sipped a coffee.
“Oh why was she flustered?” Jason asked.
“Because you mentioned about her being pregnant. .. and Tia always wanted foals” Luna said gaining a nod from Jason but he didn't look to her.
“Okay… yea I am… was engaged to the Celestia of another Equestria. .. and also she was in her final term…” Jason said before he cut himself off by crushing the coffee mug in his hand before sighing. “I'll be waiting outside” He said rising from the table and walking outside.
“What's wrong with him?” Sunset asked as she hadn't been paying attention.
“He is stuck here for several years while his herd believes he is dead… most of his herd were pregnant” Manus explained.
“But why is he even here?” Kevin asked curious and slightly annoyed at the man who just stormed out.
“To help you” Manus said causing Kevin to frown and look down at the table.
“Damn it” Kevin muttered as Manus rose to his feet.
“Get ready as it is best to get this over and done with” Manus said as he turned and left the room.
(Outside)
The young warrior was leaning against the wall next to the entrance to the home of his new companion while he scrolled through his phone at the images within until the sound of someone clearing their throat.
“Hmm?” Jason hummed as he looked up to see the tall solar princess standing before him along with a familiar violet alicorn that stood half a head taller then the man.. “Tia?” He asked as he crossed his arms.
“That is Princess Celestia to yo…” The alicorn started only to stop when Celestia raised her hand to her companion.
“Enough Twilight” She said to her student before turning back to the man before her. “Would I be correct in saying that you are a friend of a version of myself?” She asked but before Jason could reply, he was cut off by the Lunar Princess coming outside and cutting him off.
“More like engaged and knocked up” Luna said causing her sister to turn bright red as Jason sighed before he turned away from the blushing mare before him and walked off.
“Wow way to make a good man feel like shit, and worse is it came from you Luna” A voice stated from above them, making the three look up to see Manus sitting in a tree, sipping a cup of coffee. “And considering what he went through to ensure their safety… I'd call him a hero but I doubt he sees himself as one… just a monster” Manus said with a sigh.
“Ah Manus is it? I do believe that Rei desires a word with you” Celestia said to him.
“In time, not right now though as there are more pressing matters to attend to.” Manus said before vanishing in the blink of an eye.
Chapter 17 - Necromancer and the Demon
On the edge of the small town of Ponyville, Jason stood waiting for Manus and Kevin to arrive, standing near him were several pony and Caribou guards along with Rei, who was watching the man with great concern and guilt as Jason stared off into the Everfree forest.
“Ah there you are Jason” A voice called making the man turn to see the red eyed man who he was sent to help.
“Are we doing this?” Jason asked.
“Yea just everyone was looking for you after Luna upset you” Kevin said as Jason simply shrugged.
“She didn’t upset me… look lets just get this shit done than be alone” He said gaining a frown from Kevin.
“Trust me, you don’t want to be alone” Kevin said as he stepped forward and placed his hand on the taller man’s shoulder.
“Let’s just get this done” He said as he turned and walked off towards the demon’s home.
“Hey wait Jason, what did you do to think that you are a monster” Kevin asked as he walked beside the winged man.
“That is not something i wish to talk about” He said to the man as the pair reached the manor and walked to the entrance, where they were quickly stopped by Luna and Celestia.
“Jason i wish to apo…” Luna started only for the man to teleport passed them and into the house. “...logize”
“Ah Jason there you are, ready?” Manus said to his friend.
“I need weapons and new armour and also we need and plan for battle and also i need to know everything about this guy and also his connection to everything here” He said as he removed his shredded armour and dumped in on the ground before stretching his wings.
“Alright… and looks like your shoulder has healed nicely” Manus said to the man, who ran his hand over a large fresh scar on his left shoulder.
“Yea, you never cease to amaze me” Jason said as Kevin entered with the royal alicorn sisters, both of who stopped and took in the sight of the muscular and scarred man in the living room.
“Hey maybe try not to be such a prick” Kevin asked.
“Look we have a fucking job to do, when this cunt is dead then we can be friends but until there, we are coworkers” Jason said causing Kevin and the alicorns to recoil just as Manus appeared with a large chest. “Where did you get that?” Jason asked.
“The Storm Citadel” Manus said smiling softly as Jason nodded before opening the chest and began to suit up in armor.
“So Kevin, who are we killing?” Jason asked as he tightened his cuirass and chainmail to his naked chest before securing a plackart and faulds onto it.
“Well he is a Demon Lord who i kind of replaced and kind of is holding a grudge about it and also he killed my lover” Kevin said with a frown as energy sparked around his hand.
“Okay first… why the fuck did your wife grab me instead of Luke? He is pretty much the god of demons” Jason said to Manus who shrugged. “ And second, don’t worry about your lover being murdered as i can fix that” He said as he placed his boot on the coffee table and strapped on a cuisse, poleyn and fan plates to his leg before tightening it.
“Wait you know a Demon god?” Luna asked shocked.
“Know one? He is my baby brother” Jason said as he attached the greave and a sabaton to his lower leg and boot before he tightened them correctly and started on his other leg.
“Wait what!” Kevin asked shocked like all the other’s in the room save for Manus and Rei.
“Yea, and?” Jason asked as he tested his range of movement before nodding.
“And he could help here” Kevin said as Jason simply shrugged as he started on attaching a cowter to his left elbow followed by a vambrace and rerebrace above his elbow.
“Well i guess you are stuck with me then” He said with a shrug as he started on the other arm.
“Fine i guess… also why not just use magic to put that on, it makes it a lot quicker and easier.” Kevin said with a sigh as Jason pulled on pauldrons onto his shoulders before attaching gardbraces to the front of them.
“Yea i am wondering that also Jason, like i have seen you do it in battle multiple times” Manus said.
“Yes that is when i am usually caught off guard or have to ambush someone but usually i try not to as when i attach it, it isn’t perfect and screws with my movement” JAson explained as he put a Mail collar on and tucked it under his chest plate.
“I that makes sense” Luna said as Jason pulled a pair of studded Gauntlets and a great helm from the chest.
“Manus where are the weapons?” Jason asked as Manus gestured for them to go outside.
“Go outside and select while i deal with this junk” Manus said as Jason and the others left save for Rei stayed behind while Manus obliterated the discarded armor.
“Ready to talk?” Rei asked hopeful as she moved towards her partner.
“No… no i am not, i am still taking in the fact that you are alive and everything” He said as his mate moved next to him and grasped his hand.
“Please let me help… i know i screwed up but i want to make things right between us… please” Rei asked as Manus was about to yank his hand away only to stop and sigh.
“Fine why no… ah!” Manus said before he was bear hugged by the void dragon and smothered in her bust.
“Thank you sweetie!” Rei said happily as Manus pushed himself free and gasped for air.
“Please try to refrain from killing me” He stated as the woman turned bright red with embarrassment.
(Outside)
“So what are you going to pick?” Celestia asked.
“Hmm i usually enjoy using a sword” Danse said as he looked over the swords.
“Yea so do i” Stated a white Caribou doe in silver armor.
“Yes but what if expects that?” Kevin stated as Jason simply placed his gauntlets and helm on a table before grabbing several different kinds of swords and inspected them before dropping them before collecting two falchions in their sheaths and strapping them to each side of his hips before grabbing a long sword and strapped it to the left side of his waist.
“There now we can… why are you grabbing more weapons?” Danse asked as he watched Jason collected a spikeless mace which he attached to his waist on his right side and a belt of throwing knives that he slung over his chest along with a long sadistic knife before grabbing a bardich and tested the weight before nodding. “Got enough?” Danse asked sarcastically as Jason looked over his weapons before grabbing a crossbow. “I was kidding!”
“I am preparing for anything that will be thrown at me” Jason said as he slung a quiver of bolts over his shoulder.
“Isn’t that like incredibly heavy?” Kevin asked.
“Not really, i have practiced with more” Jason said.
“I like him” The doe said with a smirk.
“Um so what is the battle plan then hot stuff?” Kevin asked crossing his arms.
“You distract him and i go in and rend him mortal then we kill him” Jason said with a shrug.
“Wait render him mortal?” KEvin asked as Jason simply nodded before pulling on his gauntlets and grabbing his helmet.
“Yes, this will far easier then what i have dealt with… hopefully” Jason stated. “So where is this guy?” Jason asked Kevin.
“Oh he is about a few hundred miles east” Kevin said “I can open a portal there” He added.
“Okay, get dressed and we will go” Jason said as Kevin teleported away while he looked at the crossbow and dumped it on the ground along with the quiver. “I won't need this” he said before dumping his polearm and grabbing a battle axe. “This should work” He muttered before he looked back to the group, who were looking at him with curiosity. “What?” He asked.
“Just never really seen anypony willingly go into battle carrying so much” Celestia said in amazement.
“I’m only half a pony” He said as he walked off to find his friend.
“Wait half a pony?” Danse asked as Kevin reappeared in his gear.
“What’s happening?” Kevin asked just as Jason returned with Manus.
“He said he is only half a pony” Twilight said.
“Yes i did, but we can explain this later, right now we have to save the world” Jason said as he rolled his eyes as the demon opened a portal.
“This will put us about a kilometre away from the combat zone” Kevin explained.
“I’ll set up a barrier between you guys and us so we will be safe” Shining said.
“Manus could you please do it cause i have a feeling that Shining won’t be enough” Jason said before walking through the portal, along with everyone there.
(Unknown Location)
“So why this place?” Jason asked as he stepped to the edge of cliff and knelt down as he surveyed the land before him.
“What do you mean?” Kevin asked confused.
“What i mean is that someone like a Demon Lord would likely not chose a that would be a tactical disadvantage to them let alone a level playing field” Jason said as he removed his helmet and raised his hand as a dark aura surrounded it. “He would desire an advantage and he has one” Jason said.
“How does he have an advantage? There are two of us and…”
“Three thousand of them” Jason said as his hand stopped glowing and he put his helmet on.
“T-three thousand… maybe we shoul…” Twilight started before Jason cut her off.
“Stick to the plan, i sense many bound souls to this place and buried corpses that i can rise to help” Jason said as he rose to his feet.
“Wait, corpses that you can rise?” Nyx asked confused as Jason placed his axe by his feet moments before deep purple lightning sparked between his fingers, black energy spilt from his hands like slime and dark red flames burnt around them as the group save for Manus stepped backwards.
“Yes, i am quite proficient in Necromancy, Dark magic and Black Magic” Jason said as he rose his hands into the air.
“You’re a Necromancer!?” Celestia asked disgusted.
“What you are perfectly fine with a demon but not a Necromancer?” Jason asked as his magic reached out and found their marks.
“Well actually Celestia doesn’t really like… mmmph!” Twilight started before she was gagged by her brother.
“They had a rocky reunion.” Shining said as the energy around Jason’s hands expanded in size.
“Right, well just to letting you know that it’s either this or you sending in hundreds of your precious soldiers who have families they want to return to and have most die” Jason explained as the royalty behind him frown as they took in this information.
“Alright… i shall allow this” Celestia said.
“I wasn’t asking for permission” Jason said as the magic suddenly vanished from around his hands moments before the sound of fighting could be heard.
“So we attack?” Kevin asked, staying a few feet away from the tall necromancer, who rolled his eyes from under his helmet.
“Jesus fucking christ i am not going to fucking do anything… just go and fucking distract this guy and save the hostages he has and i’ll do the fucking rest” Jason said annoyed before he teleported away after picking up his axe.
“Is he always like this?” Kevin asked.
“No he isn’t… he's just upset” Manus sighed and rubbed his eyes.
“Why is he so upset?” Danse asked.
“Well he nearly killed his finances and their unborn children while he was trying to protect them, in reality it was not his fault but he can’t accept that” Manus sighed.
“Why were they in the situation?” Celestia asked.
“Because his grandfather was a psychopath that only wants to ruin the lives of his kin… and he used Jason’s herd as a shield and whenever Jason attacked, well he can't forgive himself” Manus said just as a massive explosion of dark energy erupted on the battlefield. “Looks like Jason grew impatient” Manus said.
Chapter 18 - Vanishing Act
“Hmm now that is interesting” Mors muttered as he watched the horde of undead demons and guards fighting his corrupted army. “Now either Kevin has learnt Necromancy and mastered it to be able to do that or we are dealing with a new piece on the board” He muttered moments before an heavily armoured, winged warrior appeared a few metres in front of him in a flash of energy while radiating dark energy. “Seems the latter is correct” Mors chuckled as magic surrounded his hand.
“My lord i have a bad feeling about this” Brian said as he took a few steps backward.
“Oh please, he doesn’t look that tough” Mors laughed before firing off a powerful magical beam, which the warrior sliced in half with his battle axe, sending the attack off to the warrior’s right and left. “Well i have been wrong before” Mors shrugged as the warrior launched forward.”But it would appear that he is quite foolish to attack head on” Mors said as he summoned his rapier and thrusted forward at the warrior when he was close enough, only for the armoured man to vanish.
“Stop underestimating me please” A gruff voice said moments before Mors was cut in half.
“Haha think that can kill me?” Mors laughed as he turned to face his attacker as tendrils of sludge reconnected between his halves. “You really ar… oh shit” Mors stated as he saw a orb of dark energy forming in the warrior’s hand moments before it detonated in a wave of dark magic. “You know i am gonna stop that” Mors groaned as his body began regenerating just as the warrior launched forward.
“Your time is up Mors!” A voice shouted out, causing Mors to turn and see Kevin firing a massive magical attack, so he quickly dodged it, resulting in the attack slamming into the winged warrior’s chest and sending him flying back. “Oh shit, Sorry Jason!”
“Really?” Jason shouted as he pulled himself out of a self made crater and drew his mace in his left hand and his long sword in his right moments before dark energy surrounded the weapons before he launched forward.
“Two against one… how unfair…” Mors started before Jason slammed the mace head into his face, sending black blood flying along with fragments of the demon’s mask.
“Do you ever shut the fuck up?” Jason asked as he then plunged his sword into Mors’ chest before slamming the mace down on his head again, splattering the ground in blood.
“Don’t let him fool you” Kevin said as Jason pulled his sword free and dropped it before white energy surrounded his hand and he plunged his hand back into Mors’ now open chest. “Jason what are you doing?”
“Haha you fool, are you so willing to… what is happening?” Mors asked as his body began to swell.
“Just cease to exist?” Jason asked as bulges moved under Mors’ flesh and cracks formed on his body with piercing light burned from them while white static ran up the warrior’s arm causing him to groan in pain. Streaks of lightning sparked off the two and hit nearby corrupted ponies, healing them while it destroyed any nearby undead.
“Jason what are you doing?” Kevin asked.
“I recommend holding on” Jason said before he tore his hand free resulting in a massive eruption of white magic, engulfing the entire battlefield and blinding anyone on the field.
After several minutes, the blinding light faded revealing huge chucks of slime littering the field, numerous ponies and other beings lay unconscious on the ground. “W-what happened?” Kevin asked as he got to his feet and rubbed his eyes before seeing Jason on his knees, his right arm was devoid of armour and smoking, the skin was bright red and burnt.
“Fuck… note to self… never do that again” Jason panted before pushing himself to his feet and looking around then at Kevin. “Job done” He chuckled as a hellish roar was heard, making the two turn to see one of the large piles of slime fall away to reveal a massive bat winged demon.
“Ahh the fuck did that come from?” Kevin asked.
“Well looks like i resurrected the things that he consumed” Jason said as he drew both his remaining swords.
“Resurrected the things he… Red!” Kevin said before running off.
“No yea let me do all the work…. No it’s all cool” Jason said sarcastically before he charged at the bat demon.
“Red?” Kevin shouted as he ran to the closest pile of slime and tore it open, only for a large Manticore to burst free and try to eat him moments before a pike pierced it’s chest, making the demon look behind him to see a panting, slime covered Red Oni smiling at him.
“Hey baby” Red said smiling moments before hugging him.
“NO THAT IS CHEATING!!!” They heard Jason shout in the background followed by several explosions.
“Um should we be concerned?” Red asked as she looked to see the winged man being attacked by several giant demons at once.
“Ahh i think he is alright” Kevin said moments before Jason was eaten by a giant monster plant. “Or not” Kevin said “Okay maybe we should h…”
Kevin started before the plant detonated in a shower of lime green sludge as Jason charged out wielding a single sword. “So… um i remember dying so how am i alive?” Red asked.
“Well Jason… the guy over there resurrected you and all these demons along with killing Mors” Kevin said as it suddenly went quiet.
“Thanks for the help” Jason growled as he stormed passed bleeding heavily from his arms, legs and back while Applebloom and Frost followed him.
“Ah crap” Kevin said as he followed the trio with Red. “So Jason how do you feel?” Kevin asked.
“I am less than pleased with you so leave me alone” Jason growled before he wrapped his arms around the young mares before teleporting away.
“Well Mors is dead and everyone is somewhat alive” Kevin said as he rubbed his neck.
“Yes, i am so happy that that monster is finally dead” Red said as Kevin opened a portal.
(Ponyville hospital, half an hour later)
Sitting with in a hospital room was Jason as several doctors and nurses cleaned his wounds and stitched him up. “So let me get this straight… you got eaten… by a giant plant then proceeded to burst out of the plant and attack giant monsters?” The doctor asked.
“Yea that is about it” Jason said causing the stallion to nod slowly as a nurse wrapped Jason in bandages just as the door opened and in walked Twilight, Celestia, Luna, Rei, Manus, Danse and the unnamed Doe from earlier.
“How are you buddy?” Manus asked as he came over to his friend.
“Sore, tired, annoyed… you name it” Jason said.
“Um i… we would like to apologize for how we acted towards you” Celestia said as she approached the man.
“Yea whatever, Manus how long do we have to stay here?” Jason asked causing Celestia’s ears to flatten against her head at the comment.
“Unfortunately, seeing as you dispatched Mors so quickly and the demons that spawned from his body instead of overlooking them… you just have to wait for a good while… a few years in fact and before you ask, no i can’t just dump you in a different dimension and slow it’s time down so you only have to wait a few days… we can’t do that this time” Manus explained, gaining a sigh from the man.
“Fine what ever” Jason said standing. “Where will be staying anyway cause i didn’t bring my wallet so i’m kind of br…”
“With me!” Celestia said quickly. “I mean, you are welcome in Canterlot Castle” She corrected herself as Jason cocked an eyebrow to the mare.
“Um then i guess it is settled” Jason stated as he walked towards the door, only to be stopped by several doctors and nurses.
“Sir you are in no condition to go anywhere right now so i recommend you go lay down” The Doctor said.
“Noted, now i don’t enjoy being in hospitals” Jason said as he teleported passed them and headed down the hallway.
“Damn it Jason” Manus said as he followed his friend along with the mares, Caribou and dragoness in the room. “Hey Jason wait!” Manus said as he teleported beside Jason and grabbed him by the wrist. “What are you doing? This is not you” Manus said.
“How should i be acting Manus? I want to know if my fiancee and unborn children are alright but i can’t, i want to at least be there for when the woman i love gives birth but i am unable to… I just repaired the relationship with my Mother and just met the second mare in my father’s herd who i would love to get to know but news fucking flash, I am fucking stuck here dealing with shit that isn’t mine, yours or anyone that i care about so excuse me if i am not acting normal… because i am fucking ropeable right now and i am doing my best not to put people in hospital” Jason explained before yanking his wrist free only to have his other wrist ensnared by Rei. “Don’t you fucking start with me” Jason growled as dark static ran between his fingers.
“Oh please you couldn’t hurt me” She chuckled.
“I can fucking try” Jason stated as the static turned into black fire.
“ENOUGH!” The Caribou Doe shouted, catching everyone off guard before she stormed over, freed jason and dragged him off.
“Silver what are you doing?” Danse asked confused moments before the Doe teleported away with Jason.
(Kevin’s home)
“Oh Celestia you are safe!” Snow said as she cuddled her daughter kissing her forehead repeatedly.
“Mum!... Mum stop!” Frost said as she tried to get free but to no avail.
“ ‘re ya alright?” Applejack asked as she looked over Applebloom, who fidgeted.
“ Ah’m alright” She replied as Kevin flopped onto a couch with Red, who was cuddling him and kissing his cheek and neck softly.
“Nice work Kevin, you managed to somehow get Red back, rescue these two and save the world” Fleur said as she sat on the opposite side of Kevin and cuddled him.
“In all honesty i think i just got in the way” Kevin sighed as he looked at the roof. “Like this Jason goes it and is untouchable by Mors until i rock up and accidentally blasted Jason with an incredibly powerful attack… which Jason seemed to shrug off also before he proceeded to obliterate Mors like it was nothing and saved everyone… I mean everyone was freaking out because he is such a strong Necromancer but now that he has saved several thousand people and also resurrected Red before slaying several low level S class demons and then rescuing Frost and Applebloom” Kevin sighed loudly. “He makes me look like a weakling… so i could only imagine the man dumb enough to go after his family”
“Hmm so what will happen to him now?” Fleur asked just as the front door opened.
“What do you mean you have no idea where your sister has taken him?” Manus asked.
“I don’t want to force her to do something she doesn’t want to do and i don’t want to take her sanctuary away from her” Danse explained.
“Oh my stars you are useless” Manus growled as he walked into the lounge room.
“What’s wrong?” Kevin asked.
“Well Jason is kind of angry at the moment and needs some space” Rei said.
“Says the woman who was trying to start something with him” Manus replied to his wife, who looked away in embarrassment.
“Wait so where is he?” Kevin asked as the group that entered simply shrugged.
“Oh great, Prince Jason is missing” Sunset said as she entered the room with a few bottles of cider, which she gave to her herd mates.
“Well it could be worse i guess” Manus said with a shrug.
“How?” Twilight asked.
“At least all those evil demons are dead so you don’t have to worry about a demonic attack except from captain lazy pants here” Manus said pointing to Kevin.
“Hey!” Fleur said.
“No no, he is corrected, i did fuck all” Kevin said. “Wait can’t you track him?” Kevin asked.
“No, he has probably used a spell to make himself near impossible to find” Manus explained.
