Previous ChapterNext Chapter

After the battle was over the tigerlorn looked over the three ponies who stood braver than he previously thought. Fluttershy had a few scratches from the encounter with the whipping vines but stood tall. Twilight was cataloging the *smiley's* nick named by Pinkie. The pony of joy was smiling at her friends telling them silly jokes about fertilizer. The boulders stood like small mountains casting shade over the traveling troupe giving rest to those who braved the shadows.

Pinkie pie was already munching on a smilicus delirum then she said “Not to bad better than oatmeal with peppercorns yummy.”

"Your so random Pinkie we almost lost you you silly filly.” the purple alicorn said with a touch of sadness.

The wind picked up carrying broken flowers petals across the field they were standing in dancing like foreign words across the ground.

Fluttershy spoke quietly” thank you pinkie I got really scared I am sorry for getting you into danger.”

Pinkie as usual giggles then attacks Fluttershy with multiple hugs using her mysterious mane to pull Twilight into a hug pile.

“Silly fillies I am right as cupcakes,cookies and right as any pie without a scratch to my eye” she said with a wink that glittered in her blue eyes.

Rizzick seeing this event going on made him unconsciously remember a memory in Aggeroth about his younger (brother) who saved him from the Bell Trolls a tear slid silently down his face. The day was waiting on no one and began changing towards evening the light was leaving the land as darkness gathered. The grass began to bend as the cooler temperatures was setting into the land. Even the boulders groan because the land shifted like a sigh escaping the world.

Twilight responded noticing the change in time “ Girls and company lets get back to E'qu before more trouble arrives to deter our destination.”

Fluttershy smiled "Ofcourse Twilight lets head home I bet our friends are waiting for us."

Pinkie Pie laughed on her hooves "No doubt Rainbow Dash might even meet us half way I hope she brings cupcakes and chocolate milk oh yes please tell me she is bringing chocolate milk."

Rizzick followed behind the mares as they took to the path. Each one was more weary this time keeping an eye on their surroundings in case of another attack. Twilight put her notes away back in her natural pockets keeping her bearings so they would not get lost. Fluttershy apparently talked with the birds sending them out bearing information for her other friends. But strangely the pink pony was singing a song about bringing smiles to all her friends and how she loved to receive theirs in turn. This confused Rizzick for smiling never got him a meal nor helped his sick friends back from his world.

The oddball company arrived in E'qu at night it was a rather large village built in a defensible location.  E'qu was the name of this village which was still in progress being built upon. He saw a  very small orchard with peaches tree's along with few apple tree's that had  a single barn to house the goods. The orchard was easily largest property on the outskirts of E'qu with three fields to be tilled it  was very quiet during the night. Rizzick examined the wall surrounding the main village it was made from sturdy mottled colored clay with thorny plants growing out of the structure.

Twilight slighty blushed under his scrutiny eye at the wall and said “well I know its not very inviting but we had to build defense's all over our new home to protect it and ourselves.'

Rizzick smiled and said “ I like it my old home liked to build these … defense's as well.” His eyes wanders over to the pink pony that was still hopping all this long distance shocking Rizzick a little to her endless energy as a smile touched his lips.

”E'qu seems to be sleeping soundly tonight.” said Fluttershy with a nervousness.

Two guards were protecting the main gate called down “Hho is down there.”

you could hear the grinding of a few gears and noticed what appeared to be a small ballista aiming at themselves. This caused Rizzick to rear on his haunches preparing himself for battle when three hooves appeared and held him still with their comfort.

“Snips and Snails its me Twilight with company let the feathers be one and the hooves be all.” she said with practiced precision.

The two guarding stallions bumped into each other and hurried to open the wooden gate “We are sorry princess Snips here said you guys might be changlin's.” said snails which incurred a hoof bump to his head as Snips smacked him.

“No I didn't Snails I said they cooould be them nasty bugs that's why she gave us the password remember.”

Snails rubbing his forehead with his hoof said with hurt pride ”oh yeaaah that's right now I do thanks Snips”

Pinkie Pie was staring at Rizzick with a smile and said “come on Rizzy lets get inside E'qu has a lot to offer we have cookies,pretty flowers,awesome skies,three colored turtles and music.”

She flushed slightly at the word of music because she has missed multiple practices lately. Rizzick entered into entrance nearby with glimmering moss growing off a erected pole which shined upon him. This startled snips and snails for they have never seen such a large and ferocious beast like him. Fluttershy flew over and soothed Snails bump with her tenderness as Twilight approached Snips asking him about any reports on the last few days.

“what and who is that … is he a monster?” said the two in unison quite frightened of his monster like appearance.

Pinkie pie charged the two started stallions “No he is not he is just like a big no huge cupcake with super duper frosting ok!” she said with a growing passion.

Twilight coughed and then said “He is our guest Pinkie found him hurt and we are treating him.” The two watched as three mares lead the huge tiger bearlike creature towards the main house.

Rizzick amazed at all the colors built into this village he has never seen so many different shades of color. His world was mostly black, grey and green of darker shades that colored Aggeroth. The tigerlorn shook his head even though it was dark there were few ponies watering their plants and putting away tools. These ponies would gasp and hide their foals in a nearby house upon sight of the bandaged constellation patterned tigerlorn especially when his mouth would open revealing a jagged grin.This brought a private smile to his mind but he focused on following the three his eyes were drooping a little bit.

Pinkie pie looked over her shoulder and noticed that Rizzy was falling behind a little bit she turned around and braced herself against his side. Rizzick surprised again and again at the joy and thoughtfulness of the pink mare he looked to his left and noticed the mellow pony that called herself fluttershy was bracing herself on the other side. Rizzick thought to himself damn I look mighty pathetic to need so much help in the last few days. They approached a large building that had the full rainbow of colors flowing from the bottom of the building all the way to top of this tree like castle which brought on the idea of how it was made.

Twilight used her magic to open the main gates which opened two large decorated doors of the sun and moon. Rizzick heard the flapping of wings and he looked up to which a cyan colored pegasus fly onto one of the balconies above them. This caused him to look a little nervous at his companions meeting new ponies seems to be unsettling.

Flutteshy shyly smiled and said “ Its ok Rizzick this is the home of the friendliest ponies in all of Equestria.”

Pinkie Pie spoke as she bracing against the tigerlorn "And it has my pet alligator gummy he could hold the friendliest stare in all of E'qu."

Twilight sighed at her friends and then spoke " There is six of us who live here with our pets and we help the ponies of Equestria while befriending other tribes."

Pinkie chipped in "Oh yea we do that too."

The group entered into the main hall which was using myriad of colored portraits that decorated the walls. Many of the seem to be triumphs over enemies and a few were Pinkie parties. Mixed into the artwork were some battles lost and graves of many which appeared to be plaques of the beloved. Rizzick was attempting to read a plague and he realized he could not read Equestrian yet and sighed as the ponies watched him. Twilight walked up to a portrait of a mare with glass's and gave a little sob as she touched it gently.

Then Twilight who was reading a list floating magically in front of her she pointed with a hoof to the left “That is the guest room he can use to recover.”

Fluttershy nodded her head in agreement "Of course Twilight Ill bring some more bandages over in a little bit." Rizzick shrugged the two ponies gently off as Fluttershy opened the door for him.

He walked in a little unsure of his circumstance as he looked at the three and said with a slow smile “Thank you mares I shall sleep here for now.”

Without shutting the door he walked over to he bed and slept in front of it taking up most the room. The purple mare shut the door softly as the three ponies heard soft sounds of sleeping. Pinkie pie smiled with her boundless energy and hopped without making a sound towards her room to give gummy a meal. The castle had moon light stored in bottles casting a soft light across the dark areas to allow ponies to rest easier as they slept in their rooms. But this castle had its fair share of secrets as Twilight touched a portrait it opened up into a doorway of which she was about take.

Fluttershy yawned and told Twilight “I better go check on my critters I miss them so they get extra ornery when i am not around.”

Twilight moved on towards her room and was stop by a Rainbow Dash coming down the stairs in a hurry “What was that huge animal did Fluttershy make another friend?”

Twilight yawned and used her hoof to cover her mouth ”No actually Pinkie did she found him in forest to the west.”

The pegasus mouth dropped a little “But how is that possible gummy is her only animal pet.”

“Well RD he isn't exactly a pet let me explain what happened in the last few days.” she said with a patience.

The pegasus mouth dropped even further in surprise as she heard what happened and then responded “ You guys should have grabbed me it sounds so cool I mean dangerous you mares could have gotten hurt.” she said with hurt pride in her voice.

Twilight yawned again and said sleepily “I am sorry Rainbow Dash we were in a hurry and you were out on patrol.”

They gave each other hug with a tight squeeze with that Twilight headed towards her room for some well deserve sleep. Rizzick sha was having a nightmare about his world in flames a familiar demon raging across the land covered in blood of the land when he heard a voice.

“Little one do not lose to this battle you are the victor strengthen your heart.” said a shadowy figure in the corner of his eye.

In this dream Rizzick envisioned himself as a young tigerlorn size of a cubling his mane was shaggy with only star patterns that glowed slightly. His soul key throbbed in his body alighting a old power that helped him to recognize this as a dream. His small feline eyes fell upon a large fully grown pony with a bed lighting her plot.

She spoke with a practiced soft tones “ Traveler no need to fear this is the realm of dreams my domain.”

Rizzick in his small form look up towards and attempted a roar which sounded like an awkward “mew”

she raised her wings and the image's faded from the surrounding leaving them standing awkwardly on a moon.He thought to himself crap seriously not my day or in my dreams.

He mumbled to himself " I am in constant losing battle to be Rizzick sha the hunter, now I am Rizzy the paw he sighed after his failed attempt his thoughts spiraled."

The princess look upon cubling and giggled slightly “ Rizzick as the relic of the night I wish to thank thee for aiding my ponies is there a reward I could give you?”

Rizzick pondered for a moment then said “Relic I was saved by those very subjects that I have aided I am in debt to my benefactors there is no reward I wish more than to thank these mares.”

The moon relic made a clapping sound in response with a kind words spoken in this hazy dream “ Well spoken Rizzick a nobles heart in a mind so scarred by death I bestow upon you a simple boon may your dreams reach those that you wish upon”

Rizzicks soul key reacted to magic casted upon it from the relic of the night and he felt a new power well within himself with no threat upon his person he smiled with his fangs wide open.

“I must attend my subjects little one” she ruffled his fur upon his head with a soft hoof and vanished before his eyes.
