The Rise Of A Square World

Hi Shy

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

I sat in the quiet room…  well not entirely quiet there were two distinct sounds that could be heard.  One being the sound of a clock ticking through its rotations and the other would be my head bashing its way through its sixth or seventh cobblestone block as I sat on the couch.  O dear Notch I repeated to myself as I placed another block in quickly began turning it into gravel.

Bang*  bang*  bang*

In my company was a small white rabbit.  It was currently protesting the fact that I had accidentally broke fluttershy’s coffee table and sucked it into my inventory.  That also explains why I need to place down cobblestone every now and again.  Now you’re probably wondering why I’m performing this self-hating ritual.

Well I can think of no better way to explain it then a flashback…

You see I had just been stepped on by a very large pony.  At the same time fluttershy’s coming to the realization that I’m still alive.  Now this is where things happen very fast and completely beyond my control.  While the big pony realizes I’m no threat.  Flutter shy realizes that I’m still within the realm of the living.  This causes the giant pony to get off of me but to still stand over top of me.

This is where trouble begins for as she gets off of me I’m forced to breathe deeply in word and sit up.  While I’m sitting up mouth wide open and breathing in fluttershy filled with all kinds of emotions run straight into the back of me in a hug which causes me to lurch forward.  Keep in mind that my mouth is still open.

So you have a mouth wide open troll being pushed forward by an excited fluttershy whilst underneath a giant pony with a spell that I have every intention of destroying from all existence as soon as I get the chance.  Put all those things together and you get a shish kebab.

** end of flashback**

I could hear clopping noises as fluttershy walk down the stairs.  I only placed another block in front of me and began bashing my head on it.

(flutter shy)  O troll I’m so sorry.  I didn’t mean to push you into…  She stopped as I was now looking at her with a bruised forehead.

(troll)  can we please never talk about this ever again.  There’s a lot of things I had to explain to you and it’s going to be a long story.  But for now can we both agree to erase that moment from history?

(flutter shy)  of course troll she said blushing.  But luna really wants to apologize.  You know because she accidentally finished up when you were….

(troll) FLUTTERSHY!  I boomed to my shy and timid friend.  Please no more.

What? Did you say luna?  I asked.  I remember seeing luna once before but she did not look anything like that.  That wasn’t luna.  I remarked.

Flutter shy only looked confused for a second then she realized something and began to explain.  O no you see troll it all started long ago when twilight the first moved here to pony vill …

Flutter shy then explain the story of nightmare Moon and how on nightmare night she came to visit her and they were very good… for lack of a term that I wish to say friends.

Somewhere along the story luna herself had walked down from upstairs and was now sitting next to me.

(luna)  we give our most sincere apologies.  But we must ask how is it that you walk amongst us this nightmare night?

(flutter shy)  yes troll she said gaining a hint of pinky pie in her voice what brought you back why are you hear and are you going to leave us again?

I reassured the little pony by holding her tight in a hug unfortunately luna not knowing how uncomfortable she made me scooped us both up in an even bigger hug which hurt my ribs which had just been crushed.

Well flutter shy I explained as Luna put us both down.  As it would turn out Notch is not only a very real person as some have speculated him not to be in my world.  But he is in need of our help. he respond me so that I could free his physical body and put the entire world back to where it should be.  My intentions are together the elements of harmony and some other ponies who volunteered and take them back to my world to save it from herobrine who by the way is still alive.

Luna then got serious troll she asked are you saying our world could be in danger?  I thought for a few moments and confirmed her that so long as herobrine still lives both are worlds could be in jeopardy.  Luna then quickly rose to her feet or hooves I should say.

(luna)  then we have no time to waste.  You must go gather the other elements as quickly as possible as I will go to cantor lot and tell my sister the news.  you must hurry troll there’s no time to waste.

She then kissed the top of fluttershy’s head and gave me a hug before vanishing away in a puff of magic.  The display was quite spectacular but I had other worries on my mind.  Flutter shy I asked.  Why does that keep happening to me?

Flutter shy only looked confused.  You know I said. On the train, with chrysalis, and with cheerily it always keeps happening to me why?  O and not to mention just now with you in luna?

Flutter shy only looked down and scraped the floor with her hoof.  Well troll she began.  I can’t really pin it all on accidents.  You see when we first dragged you to the hospital every one of the ponies we passed thought you were the cutest thing they’d ever seen you know because your square in you just look so…  Um…  Well anyway if it wasn’t for you holding that sword and armor you probably have all of pony vill following you.  The little pony said blushing and trying to avoid the conversation.

My jaw then dropped of all the things for her to say cute was not one of them I was expecting.  What I asked.  You know. cute it was only your armor and sword that scared us.  But we like your big square head and the funny shape of your body looks so harmless and cute.  So of course you just attract a little bit more attention than a normal pony that’s all.  After you got transformed by pony blood it only made matters worse as we quite enjoyed the new shape even more it made you look rugged and a hero like.  But personally I prefer you being a cute little square guy even though you’re taller than me.  She then gave a small squeaky smile trying to clear the awkward from my face.

So what you’re telling me fluttershy is that to you ponies I actually look good?  I asked as we started to walk out the door.  Will not to make you feel uncomfortable troll but yes you look very um…  Nice.

The information that fluttershy had just relayed to me blew my mind.  As we stepped out the door I was forced to ask.  But you can’t actually be attracted to me right?  I look nothing like you.  Flutter shy seemed confused why does what you look like matter she asked?

I was getting ready to continue the conversation when I heard something familiar in the distance.  The it sounded…  pink.

Flying past trees rocks and over streams of water was a small pink ball of fur.  I dare not measure its speed or a mode of propulsion but I know who it was.  Of course before I managed to do anything that tiny cannonball smashed straight into my chest and began filling my head with words.

(pinky pie)  I knew it! I knew it I knew it I knew it!  My pinky pie sense told me you were.  And then I found those two little nasty Phillies surrounded by walls that only you could’ve made in now I see you right outside of fluttershy’s cottage.  Trolls alive.  Trolls alive!  Trolls alive!  TROLL IS ALIVE!

The pink pony then preceded to bounce up and down on my already injured chest.  Pinky pie I breathed through each bounce.  Please get off of me.  She seemed to ignore my command as then she gripped tightly around my head and began kissing the top of it refusing to let go.

(pinky)  I can’t wait to have a party I don’t know what kind of party it will be there’s never been a back from the dead party.  But it’s going to be the best party ever.  Because trolls back and you will never leave us again.  Right troll?

After a few moments of trying to pull off the pink pony I gave up and just began walking back to where my underground tunnels began.  Flutter shy followed close behind me and pinky pie merely rode on top of my head.  Passing the cobblestone wall I found that pinky had led out the two little ponies I had trapped earlier.

(troll)  so pinky looks like you came to the rescue for those two.  Looks like you are a lot nicer than I am.

She only stared at the wall in confusion.  No troll I did not let them out I told them that if they were going to call me a frosting glazed better brain then they would have to stay in their.  I have no idea who let them out?

After the pink pony told me this I stared at the wall it was much taller than me and would probably need either the latter or wings to get over.  But I dismissed the amount of difficulty in the task suggested and continue walking to where I’d scared Rainbowdash.

So pinky tell me more about this nightmare night what exactly is it for? I asked as the description given to me before did not paint a picture of something to be celebrated but more than feared.  Now when talking to pinky pie it is very important that you do not value any form of historical accuracy for the tale she spun me did not seem to have anything to do the question but for fear of starting her on a new topic I led her to finish her insane story.

(pinky)  and so you see troll that is how pony babies are made.  She said finish in her story.

Flutter shy only rolled her eyes.  Pinky that’s not how you use coconuts at all she began explaining when she was interrupted by the site of pony vill up a head.

(pinky)  O no can you hear all that screaming it sounds like they started without us.  Leave some candy for me!  she shouted to the wind.

I look forward towards the lights of the town and I could hear screaming but it was not the scream of joy and delight. no this sounded different, familiar.  With pinky still attached my head I began running towards the tree where i scared Rainbowdash inside the trench was Octavia and vinyl waving frantically as if terrified by something.

(vinyl)  square head she screamed we have a problem.

I swiftly jumped into the tunnel with the DJ I can tell they’re both being serious.

(Octavia)  chrysalis has come back and I don’t think you did a very good job of turning her good seeing as she is rounding up every pony in the town.

(vinyl)  there are changelings everywhere what do we do?

Great I thought to myself it’s bad enough I have to dell was herobrine but now I have to deal chrysalis again.  Wait do you say the center of town I asked the DJ pony.  She only nodded her head up and down as we both came to the realization that chrysalis is standing right over top of the tunnel I’d just dug.

(vinyl)  O yeah where both thinking the same thing.  She said rubbing her four hooves together.

(pinky) what are you going to do troll?

I only smiled the same thing I do every night pinky stop someone from taking over the world.  I said finally pulling her off my head and seating her to the ground.

Looking up into the sky I could see changeling’s flying overhead if things got ugly I’m not sure of pickax and chest plate would be enough.  Blocks I swore out loud I wish I had more obsidian.

Pinky then perked up.  O here you go troll she said reaching out of the trench and coming back with several blocks in hand or hooves I should say.  I always keep these nearby in case of such emergencies.  I only stared astonished of the little pony.  Pinky how did you get those?  You’re not from my world and how did you get them so…  I was going to continue my rant into pinkies somehow obtaining something that can only be gotten from me or my world but I decided to dismiss it realizing who I would be talking to.

Whenever I said with a passing wave.  Good job I give me the blocks I can make some armor and sword.  Quickly a jump out of the trench and blocked off a piece of a tree having forgotten that these trees fall over I was forced to dodge the following piece of timber before finally jumping back into the trench.  With my new crafting table in hand I quickly sent to work on making all the time needed for my plan to work.

(flutter shy)  wow troll.  That armor that is much scarier than your diamond armor.  She said growing small.

(troll) that may be true but this armor is by far more powerful.  I must remember as soon as I get back to pony vill library to enchant it.

I then looked to the four ponies at my disposal OK I said here’s a plan.  You for go get captured and then go to the center of pony vill with all the others.  I will go through the tunnels and ambush chrysalis.  If all goes according to plan and should be more than a match for the changeling’s in freeing every pony should be a easy task.

(flutter shy)  why do we have to be captured couldn’t we just stay here?

I reassured fluttershy with a pat on top hir head. don’t worry I said chrysalis is evil and she’s probably thought this out.  The first thing shall want to do is find you and the other elements of harmony and keep you all where she can see you.  Hopefully I should get her while she is focused on you six.  Assuming Rainbowdash has reentered the planet’s atmosphere by now.  I said with a laugh.

But few minutes the past after all it did take some time for me to extend the tunnels to exactly the right place but eventually the plan was sent.  Deciding not to hurt any of the changeling’s a change from my sword to my shovel and listened in on the conversation above.

Chrysalis was maniacally speaking down to towards all that was now captured.

(chrysalis)  finally pony vill has fallen and next we shall take over cantor lot.  Soon I will rule all of equestrian and no force can stop me.  She said laughing and the sky.

Down below her were five of the elements of harmony captured.  Twilight disgusted by chrysalis is betrayal was forced to speak up.

(twilight)  chrysalis what are you doing?  I thought you had changed?  They’ve all that time was spent another matter to you at all?

Chrysalis flew down to twilight this being the moment I was waiting for.

(chrysalis)  no twilight sparkle you’re wrong our time together did change a lot.  You helped me discover a new way of harvesting love that does not endanger ponies free will.  You’ve given my people a choice whether not be good or evil and for that I think you.  I however have chosen my path and you shall be my favorite slave.  She said as she walked around twilight who was stuck to the ground by some slime.

(rarity)  what about troll?  He died so that pony and changelings that would be safe.  Doesn’t that matter to you?

Chrysalis then grew frustrated.  of course it matters.  You will see troll sacrificed will not be forgotten or belittle.  But I shall still rule over all of equestrian but thanks to troll with kindness.

(apple jack)  you’ll never get away with this chrysalis someone will stop you.  She then turn towards the changeling next to her.  And you Mr. Are going to have a very long talk with granny Smith whin we get home.  The changeling next apple jack then revealed himself to be a ponyline that is pony that was changed into a changeling.

(apple seedling)  O come on apple jack you put me in a very tight position here.  I’m sorry for betraying my family But the changeling some my family too you know.  Look on the bright side since I’m being put in charge of sweet apple acres I’ll be staying in pony vill fulltime I will have to visit no more he said with a sheep a smile.

Apple jack only frowned and looked away from her cousin.  Cousin she declared I still love you but as soon as I get free I’m gonna give you good thump upside the head!

Pinky pie and fluttershy kept quiet which is amazing considering it was pinky pie in order not to give away my plans.  As chrysalis began pacing around the captured ponies finally my opportunity arose and I took it.  Digging away the block above me I poked my shovel out gave something of thump and then pulled it back in replacing the block.

(chrysalis)  good you’re all hell down firm even though I cannot find Rainbowdash I do not think it will…  : thump:

She then fell on the ground as a mysterious force inflicted pain upon her face.  What was that she questioned and began looking around?

(changeling#1)  which was what my queen?

Chrysalis then turned away dismissing the bizarre circumstance.  Nothing she said anyway my dear friends I think the first thing I’m going to do…  : thump:  my shovel arose from the ground once again that and then quickly pulled back as I replaced the dirt.

What was that she insisted again?  OK everyone stop and look at me.  OK this is weird just wait she said scanning the entire area looking for any horns blowing or some kind of trickery.

(seedling)  my queen I think your victory has gun to your… : thump:

See right there she said pointing her hoof tward’s apple jacks cousin.

(seedling)  OK yep what the hey was that?

Chrysalis then ordered all her changeling to fly to the ground and wait.  Now my subjects does anyone see it?  I think it only… : thump:  by my mercy that hurt she said grasping her nose.  What is going on and she then looked to the five ponies stuck to the ground.  You this is you’re doing she said advancing on twilight sparkle where is Rainbowdash she is the only one not hear and she must be responsible.

(twilight)  I don’t know where she is twilight insisted and even if I did I wouldn’t tell you.  Of course Rainbowdash is the type to do a sneak attack I don’t think she’s behind this.

Chrysalis then stared twilight expectantly waiting for it to come in attack her the however it never came.  Well well twilight I think you are behind… : thump:  … this.  She said with an irritated frown.

Twilight only laughed no I’m really not behind this I have no idea what’s happening but it serves you right.

Chrysalis then got angry yes it may serve me right but you know what I think it serves you!

: thump:  : thump:  this time she fell on her rump grasping her nose.   Ouch what is going on she demanded.

Just below the soil I thought I was going to die from laughter funny thing about laughter the Harter you try and hold in the Harter it struggles to get out and I quite enjoyed myself that is until the piece of resistance came down from the heavens giving you my perfect opportunity.

High above the mayhem of pony vill shot down a crisp white pony completely bleached of all color and pupils dilated with fear.  With a splash she shot into the Ponyville fountain.

Chrysalis accompanied by her guard quickly stormed over.  Rainbowdash she boomed how dare you lay have on me.  For this you will…  She then stopped as she looked into Rainbowdash his eyes and tasted her fear.  O my dear I’m not that mad.  The you do not need to be that frightened come hear my slave lets me comfort you.  She said picking up Rainbowdash.

Rainbowdash was still unaware of her surroundings.  She did not understand what was happening around her for all she could focus on was the fear boiling beneath her.  She could only spit out a very small sound every in now and again.

Tr---oo----lll----------zo---m----b

Twilight rarity apple jack pinky and fluttershy look on in worry.  Chrysalis they demanded what are you doing to her?

Nothing chrysalis insist the pour thing is terrified surely this is not from me as her heart is the most courageous of us all.  She then rocked Rainbowdash back and forth trying to calm her.  please my dear speak what has troubled you so?

(Rainbowdash)  t—r—lll -------zooommb she babbled on squeezing chrysalis tight.

What is she saying seedling asked moving towards his queen.

Chrysalis put her ear as close to Rainbowdash’s mouth as she could.  I think she’s saying… : thump : O WOULD YOU STOP THAT.  Chrysalis screamed grabbing her nose again.

Disturbed by the shovel popping out of the ground Rainbowdash finely screamed out.  Troll is a zombie!

Now that my cover was blown I thought it would be a good time to say hello to chrysalis.  Jumping from the ground I stood in front of the evil queen and said.   Bad bug pony!  I hit her again with a shovel.  This time however it was a much harder thump one that managed to knock her unconscious.

(random changeling)  he has attacked the queen!  Take him down!  The changeling boomed as he took command.

(troll)  blocks…
