The Legend of Dynamite
Chapter 1: War Changes Worlds
Load Full StoryNext ChapterDuring the Great War of Equestria, each half of Equestria sought to kill the other with there own bare hooves. It was an event of horror, catapults launched flaming, sharpened logs in the air, eventually crashing into the ground. At least 12 fillys were killed by every footstep a pony took. War was due to a supposedly known "Queen Decay" who claimed to be the creator of Equestria and tried to take it along with innocent lives. Some ponies were terrified of being slain and joined the queens side. Now ponies jumped from cliffs and sliced others with swords and other weapons held by a contraption called "The Gripponator" made by Twilight Sparkle. Fresh blood covered the battlefield, and the youngest of fillys and colts were drafted into action. Twilight, picking up a whole catapult 50 feet in the air with her magic, flung it at the minions of Queen Decay, crushing their entire bodies. Twilight was pregnant at the time and was supposedly going into labor at some time of the month. Sadly it had to be when she was fighting against the minions of the awful queen. Twilight's horn glowed and unearthed giant pieces of corpse covered land with her magic and shot multiple of them at the opposing enemies. Some were crushed, and some dodged luckily. Shining Armor-Twilights brother-lifted his great sword mid-way in the air and sliced in half the surviving attackers.
Twilight thanked her brother for saving her life. She then continued to trample over rotting bodies until feeling a quite unfamiliar urge in her stomach. She moaned from all the pain, she would soon go into labor. Shining Armor tossed Twilight on his back and galloped to a barely standing hut. Shining called for help, but only one injured guard came to protect Twilight whilst delivering.
The brave fighter screamed "Come at me!" Then took his dagger and swung it, slicing open an evil minions neck. Twilight pushed and pushed but there was no luck. Shining Armor shaking with panic and adrenaline, picked up his great sword and gently sliced open Twilights stomach to get the adorable baby colt out. The guard protecting Twilight, killed at least two more with his trusty dagger and was then put down by an arrow in between the eyes. Shining Armor whistled, calling a carriage of two muscular ox and put Twilight, the colt, and himself on the worn leather seats of the transportation vehicle. The carriage driving through rocky, jagged rocks, Shining Armor put his hoof on Twilights head while wailing her name.
Her blood dripped on the Carriage flooring, it was a matter of time before she was dead. Before her soul left her body, she mumbled these exact same words "Take... Good.. Care of him." and then spurted out blood from her lifeless mouth. Queen Decay's minions attacked the carriage with throwing knives to the wheels, but they were to late.
Soldiers fighting for Celestia shot arrows at the heads of the evil fighters. Tears rained down from Shining Armors eyes and he sorely said "I remember the times.. When we would play as both filly and colt, and the times when we were both alive.." The last letter he pronounced made his tears burst out screaming as loud as he ever could. As the others were fighting for Equestria, Shining Armor and Twilights baby colt were heading to the Safe Haven.
The wheels of the carriage barely made it back to the Safe Haven. Ponies, colts, and fillys glared at Shining Armor carrying the baby . Even miles away from the fighting, he could still hear swords clashing and blood splattering. While covered in blood, Shining Armor made his way into Celestia's palace.
He then spoke "Someone must take care of this newborn, I am incapable of care taking. I must serve on the battlefield!"
Princess Celestia responded "I don't think much ponies can adopt such a colt as of now, maybe Apple Jack can raise this young fellow."
Shining Armor said back at Celestia "... That's impossible! Remember, Apple Jack still has her little grudge against Twilight and will most likely starve this baby! By the way, make this quick I'm injured and I cant talk much anymore."
Grinning, Apple Jack trotted confidently to the throne of Princess Celestia out of nowhere and tried to persuade Shining Armor by saying the following "I'll take excellent care of this baby, I'll raise him better than Twilight was!"
Angered, Shining Armor screamed "You bitch!...You know Twilight died.", Shining Armor told Apple Jack whilst a tear running down his face. Princess Celestia was shocked after hearing about Twilight's departure, she had trouble holding back her own tears.
Apple Jack laughed at Shining and uttered "What a nice way to greet the new mother of this newborn child!"
Princess Celestia then agreed with Apple Jack saying "I think Apple Jack is right, options are scarce as of now, and if I were you, I'd rather take it than leave it!"
"Fine!.." Shining Armor put into words, trying to hide his disagreement. He then slogged over to Apple Jack and handed her the adorable miracle. With his last few words to say before fainting from exhaustion, he whispered to Apple Jack "If I find out that you are mistreating this baby, I will spill your guts on your own house floor!.. Got that!" He then passed out on the ground, his heavy body impacting against the golden floor. Princess Celestia called the medical crew to put his half dead body on a stretcher. She then ordered them to bring Shining Armor to a recovery center in the Safe Haven. Shining Armor's wounds were then wrapped in the finest linen cloth and he was given treatment and blood berries for blood recovery.
While Shining was recovering, Apple Jack was feeding Twilights baby a tall bottle of milk. She muttered to the baby "I think Ima call you Dynamite!" Setting his baby bum on a stack of hay. Apple Jack then darted to her stove, afraid of burning the apple pie. She opened up her stove, releasing fresh apple aroma. Then thought to herself "Your gonna go far... Dynamite.."
