Episode 1 - Past Friend And, I'm A Wolf
My back on the ground with my hands held behind my head as a pillow. I'm in a field below a tree. If you lay below the tree, and look up, they become a bit translucent when the sun beams over them.
I've watched leaves rustle in the sunlight, like a translucent silhouette dancing in the wind. Leaves rustled in the wind, cool aired breeze. If only they where Autumn leaves. Just feeling these nice, cool breeze, I just close my eyes for a-bit and sleep during this beautiful day.
If a certain loud footstep hasn't come in earshot! "Who is it?" I said bemoan. Hoped that it wasn't who I'm thinking it is. If it is, I'm not gonna be one happy brawler I thought.
"Awe. Am I really that of a bother, for an old friend to visit!"
Eyes snap open and launch myself on my feet, turn my head to see a man covered in brown cloaks. He looks like from Resident Evil (Even tho I never played it). I can barely see his smile. "Merch!"
******
Hours have past since merchant (aka. Merch) arrived. Sitting down on a tree as merchant sat on a stone picnic-table in a rotunda, sipping apple juice.
"How-ve you been?" I asked. Interested in his line of work.
"Good, in a certain way!" He said, sounds uneasy.
"... So ... Hows your job doing? You know, the di..." I thought what it's called. Tried to recall the word he uses a-lot, but it seems to hard to remember as it is only giving me a headaches. Pinching my temples from the mere annoyance of it.
Merch must have felt my headache, he said. "Displaced." Before continuing his drink.
I node as the pain eased. "Right! So what happen?" I'm glad that he got me out of that, otherwise I would be stuck in it, again.
"A boy that cosplay as Vanitas has walk up to my booth and saw the Void Gear on display with so much restrained excitement! I said; 'Hello there, Vanitas.' and he said; 'Hey, um, how much for the Void Gear Keyblade?'." He tried to imitate the event but failed.
But, I have to ask. "How much was it?" Sorry, I usually asked this.
"$200."
I was shock that I barely lost my balance. "OI that's a lot of Scata(a.k.a. munny)! What happen next?"
"He was sad, he only has half of what he owns, so I made a deal. I'll sell him the Void Gear Keyblade, for fourth of the original price, and in exchange, he plays a little game, like find all the keychains that are scattered everywhere. He agreed with so much excitement, I gave him the Void Gear and poof, gone he went."
"Again." I grumbled in annoyance. Don't get me wrong, I love his stories an all and he's telling me the truth. But he always say the same thing in the end, I gave them a thing and poof, gone they went . He never told me what it is. I tried to ask him but my thoughts telling me to leave it alone and questioned it. What if it's a code he follows or, something that might risk the entire world...
Well, what can I do? It's all that I think about. Heck thinking is all I can do. I thought. Tho, he did avoid the question when I asked how he gets those items... Wait a minute. He even avoid showing me what he does too! And he's been hogging all the meat- Shook my head. what NO. Why am I thinking of food at a time like this.
Stood straight up from leaning on one of the tree-trunk, I scowl. "Just stop already. Why won't you just tell me!" Walk in front of him so he wouldn't go running off. Yeah- I am reeeally tired of this blow hole, like a-lot! "When will you ever tell me... When will you tell about how they vanish!" My hand start creaking and non painful cracking from stress. Eyes quiver in anticipation and agitation. Many tolerance build up inside in my long life.
He stood up calmly; as far as I can tell. "Well..."
He stayed silent for a bit, face hid behind his brown cloak. When he spoke, his tone become low and a hint of something else. "You want...," Started out mumbled, then raised it for my hearing. "do you really want to know..." At first, I thought he's just joking. "Okay then, i'll tell you." I was wrong!
Wait!
"They're somewhere far away. Far -away, that even they can't return without help;" He point one finger at me. "Which is impossible due to their destiny and their human nature revealed to their world, that's what happen to them."
I'm shocked, he sent them somewhere. Someplace that they may not able to return! But.. But... "Thats nuts! ...Why would you do that! How can you just do what you;" I shook my head. "I know you and some others can do that, but still-"
"Oh, Like your supernatural powers." I tense. "Yeah. I know your secret, 'G-Crea', Gods Creation. I found out it last year." He steps forward that's just within range.
My body tenses up to the point that I can't even move anymore. Oooh crud, me and my big mouth! His hand open like a some wizard in anime shows do when their casting from their palm. "Why does my power have to do with this. It-"
"Cause yours is the creation of all thing and creators alike... And you shown your true colors in the wars. " A gray glow aura from his palm bloom. "You know too much."
Before I can do anything, a black, venomous colored vortex has opened up behind me. "Wha-" I didn't get the chance to finish. Instantly, an unknown wind blew me away into it, I yell at his name before it closed in on itself.
Couple of breaths, calming his frustration from Jack Frosts snatching the staff away and harming him. His mind was trying to catch up from frantically searching for just one staff.
When he finally did, his eye's widen, shut them just as fast as he faced-palm hard on himself. "What have I done."
Consciousness stirred. Slow, quiet moans escape my throat from my drowsy state.
A sudden groan in pain snapped me out of my slouchy feeling, mind throbs in agony. Eyes shut tightly, didn't want to get flashed from the light. And to top it off, my own body ac. Augh... This reminds me the time I road the roller-coaster at Disneyland. Stomach flip so much that I almost- and I said Almost puked. At least, not this time!
Used my hand for support on the ground, propping myself up. Only to fall down from slipping to the ground with a, thud. Ow-a That's what I get for not paying attention to your body, YOU IDIOT! I yell in my head.
I blink one eye open, fluttering it to get accustomed to the light. At first, the only thing I saw were a bunch of blobish shapes on a dark gray background. I groan at first glance at the light.
When my vision got cleared up, the logic centers of my brain just up and went… Okay buck this, I’m going on vacation.
Colors started to form... Brown and green with a few shading... that's not right! Did I slept throughout the day? Confuse displayed with an eyebrow raised. When I went to stand on my feet I quickly became unbalanced and fell on my back with a large THUD.
I was about to get up to try again, but then I saw one of the most shocking things I had ever seen. Instead of hands,
I HAVE PAWS! I screamed in my head. I look down at my figure in a nearby lakes reflection.
A huge wolf, bigger than a dog was, looking at me. I was mostly black, but the fur on my stomach was a super light grey, almost white, along with the bottom of my tail.
A manacle and broken chain were attached to one foreleg, and a small blue earring was in my left and right ear. I had a large concentration of fur around my neck and shoulders, looking like a small lion’s mane. There was a white pattern of fur consisting of a diamond with a dot in the center on my forehead, and a few other swirls on the eyebrows above my eyes. Chest rose and fell with hyperventilated breaths.
Seen it all, I come to realize that I've turn to a wolf, Wolf Link! OH NO HE DIDN'T! I bark, before placing my paw over my newly developed muzzle, shock!
Okay Okay, breath in *inhale*... and, breath out*exhale*... repeat- I did as instructed, rely on what I saw a few years back, five-no eight, eight years ago. It's something that a horse -no; its pony- I don't know, I saw it on some cartoon show but its been so long ago that I forgot what it's about, the episode and the title.
I huffed. This sucks. It's not THAT bad. Being a wolf is interesting and all but I have no interest in staying as a non-sapient for the rest of my life !
While I'm still standing, somehow, my legs started to wobble. I froze again, as realization hit me. I had never actually taken steps in this body before... I boldly took a step and put one paw ahead of me; it felt strange. I didn’t know what to expect, but it was nothing like when I would walk with my feet. I missed my feet. However, when I took the second step I realized just how much I missed my feet. A low whimper slipped my muzzle. This is gonna take a while.
As I practice, I glance around for anything in-particular trait. Raised a brow, know-tic that everything has yellow highlight instead of clear/white highlight?! Which, was odd. Hmmm... Wait.... this looks.. familiar? I thought, continue track across the forest.
******
As I reached the forest edge, I spotted something.
An area surrounded by some black core afloat with a dome covering something. Why do I feel like I should keep on high alert? I shook my head. Slowly and cautiously, I crawl towards the dome. Desperately tried to sneak closer without being noticed of being spotted.
I checked every now and then, looking at the sphere every once in a while for any identification of action or alert. As the distance is only a quarter away, I see a small size ball form has glowed, fissure hieroglyphics art. And when i'm like forty feet away, I can see a;
PONIES! I thought. Where in slippery sundaes am I!?
The purple pony had both wings and a horn. A winged unicorn? She's wearing steel armor that mostly for captain rank. She's fighting some strange bugs that have features similar to a winged unicorn and this black sphere. It would appear that they've been fighting before I got here.
I continued closer to this, strange sphere,
Its evil, destroy My mental instinct said.
It would appear that it hasn't know-tic me. It's been sprouting a black tendril that's having four claws try'in to catch the pony whenever it gets close to it. But fail as it moves away when it know-tic. Very nimble yee! I comment in thought, as I crawl closer. Whatever this thing is, I'm gonna get rid of it.
I'm in position, lowered my front and raise my back for a pounce. I growl high enough for it know my presence, which it turned around that means it heard it.
Before it can even respond, I use Wolf Links basic Dash Attack and bite down where I saw a core fragment, biting at least six more times, each one made it screech in agony; It sounds like the Shadows Link has fought! before pulling the essence out.
Feeling resistance I open one eye to only see what it is, a black tendril that's barely holding on to it. Damn Buggers... Ye gives me the Booty ya hear! ye'ar! I thought in a pirate accent as best I could. Pulled as hard as I move back for more distance, before sensing incoming from my right. Holy- ! Release my vice before dodging an incoming tendril. Mack-role!
Its attention is definitely on me now. It shot out two tendrils like claws, I dodge the first by side step to the right, second have only grazed a small swipe. Land on all four, right cheek where the swipe hit has left a black haze cut before dissipating. My chin feels numb. Okay, note to self: Avoid Shadow attacks from getting numb. Got It! Now knowing my opponent's Intel a bit, I'm ready.
Dashed towards it, Shadow shot more tendril's that seeks to destroy. Starting to dodged, zigzagging and weaving every one of them. Lucky I've gotten use to this body... If not, I would be scourged! Once within range, I use Dash Attack and tried to pull it out this time.
Before I know it, SNAP , right in my jaw is a sphere, of, something. When It lost it's light, that made it howl with a screech that even made my ears pull back for less volume.
Once it stops screeching, it dispersed into bunch of small fragments that looks like a jigsaw puzzle before flown up to the sky. A vortex was form that looks like, it sprouts out circuit-grid before it disappeared! I sigh in satisfaction...
Only to be cut short, as more insects, pony, thing surround both me and the pony. I was completely focused on that shadow that I didn't realize that I was being ambush! We are back-to-back;(if you can even call it that); tense atmosphere that's only concerning us and insect-pony.
I wanna growl at them, but stop myself. With what's going on, I need my reflexes, sight, and hearing in this kind of fight. I'll not die here, for shall be thou who shall scourge to ashes!
******
Alicorn mare fought every single insect pony that tries to harm her, not that it matters. Three minutes later, she's flanks to flank with something, unsure of what it is since it's hard to see it at night. Seem to see themselves that their surrounded by- some sort-of black form of changlings. "These things are not changeling , but at the same time they are." Shook'in her head in clearance, scowl turn to growl. "It doesn't matter, they will pay for it all!!"
EVERYTHING IS LIES
She stood up tall with authority and leadership. Her mane flows in the wind as shes feeling a desire to sing out Aliez . Invisible wolf took offensive stances as he feels pump from hearing a familiar song. But an brow rose. Wait is she really going to song?!
FRIENDSHIP DIES
She push any memories back for all she could. They took so much from her, her family, her friends, Canterlot, Griffinstone, Appleloosa, Manehatten and Crystal Empire... They've taken away everyone... It was because of me. Twilight thought.
AM I NOTHING, BUT A PUPPET
Twilight had taken the enemies front line that has been taken out, only now as a group of exoskeleton corpses of Changeling.
"As I bask in the glory;"
'Yup she is. ' More changeling reinforcements came and they too took a crouch/ attack stance.
"All the scars of the spotlight;"
Her breathing's all shaky and hallow, tear fall from her eyes.
"Is it pride that keeps these feelings burning inside;"
Twilight cast her barrier attack that expands instantly that hit multiple enemies, even ones from behind. Three fell to the ground and one hit a rock, all four are spewing green oozes. Wolf dug his claws in a swift motion in hit's or bites down on them to finish the ones that's still conscious of her attack.
"Show me how to win without the sins I see in battle;"
One tried to sneak up on her from behind, but was pushing downward on the ground and bite down its neck. It struggles to be freed for only his fangs to put more presser as its body gone limped.
"Though I try to shine, I hear your lies amongst the silence;"
We both saw only one left, Wolf growl as did Twilight.
"Can I truly say these words are mine~?"
Twilight's horn glowing in magenta with her rushing forward as did the wolf with his teeth ready in unison.
"I say CRIER;"
Imitation of a Changeling Leader was the only one left, it buzzed forward at her with its horn glowing lime green.
"Save the LIERS;"
They cast their spells as they ran at each other. Just a mere few feet away, Twilight cast her strongest spell that she can cast, now knowing the danger of using such a spell. Wolf avoids any shot as it's ready to jump for a dive bite.
"In this RISING HELL"
Front of her is a magenta colored cone that shaped as arrowhead. Wolf ran in first and bitten it's back leg and swipe his see through insectoid wings before release. When It hit the imitation of a Changeling Leader, an explosion of dust clouds.
"I stand waiting for the day;"
As it cleared up, it became translucent in mid-fall, dead.
"Don't say war~"
Her expression became utter shock. Her eyes tearing up as something felt wrong with her body. Wolf has disappeared during the explosion, not that she saw it since it's still Twilight Realm.
"I see this is how it's meant to be;"
Minutes of silence have past, high heavily breathe, eyes spasm in shock. Field that once nice became oozed in changeling corpse. She huffs. "How... many... *huff* will it..... *huff* takes for........" The whole scene spin and twirl that she slumps on the ground, blacked out instantly.
(Kye POV)
I ran as fast as I could with my numb state, squabbling few times over.That blob of abomination's numb ailment hasn't worn off, and it's been growing for a bit in battle that I almost miss my strangle with that insect/pony. It work; yeah, but I almost got hit by that ponies magic if I haven't dodge in time.
Ground shook like a aftershock before a *TWINGE* sound same, afterwards it stop shaking in a short span. At first I thought it was nothing, like some aftershock or something large fell on it's bee-hind.
Glance around in hope that it's not the ladder... I don't want to deal with a giant right now that's birth from Jack And The Bean Stock.
Raise my head up, if what I saw didn't made me double take, I would've said: Okay, wake me when everything make sense.
Seeing as everything is starting to get it's highlight colors back! My body tremble in magic that felt tingly from inside out. "Please~ tell me that it's wearing off!" Filled with excitement, I bounce in a circle.
Finally took a deep breath of fresh air, before freezing. Wait... Didn't Merch said that to become a Displaced, you need to have a real item that thy original character has, or else you'll not get the same functionality as their powers and incident. A thought swimming at the back of my mind, slowly coming to into fruition as the tingling feeling grown. ... I'm not Link... and... I don't have anything that's FROM the game to begin with.. Didn't Link get a new outfit after his first transformation... Oh- My mind finally possess the results.
I looked down at my body, seeing slowly started to glow from paw up. At this rate, I'll have only an hour! YEAH~ what does Scooby Doo usually say, oh yeah! "Ruh Roh!" I somehow speak in wolf language, but my mind was in full blown panic.
Scurry to the nearest place I can find. My first option was to head back to that village I saw earlier, but i'm to far away and inside the same murky forest. Its the place that I've woke up from.
I'm uneasy in taking a step forward, now that I'm actually conscious of my surrounding. Okay. You can do this.. this is, just.. a forest, nothing more, nothing less... I guess.
I take one step forward, into forest boundaries. Hissing and growling creatures that's covered in dark wispy form crawling from random tree branches.
large hunched biped creatures with eight legs that's red, three clawed toes. One arm is enormously huge, bulky that has five dislocated saw shape claws that has more dexterity. Other arm is skinny and crooked with an approximately least fourteen tentacles for appendages. Base torso from top is bulkier to skinnier from low with chitin like the insect/pony has. It's bat like wings all tattered with ripped edges and displays moss, as if it has been rot for decades of sadness. Small head that has razor sharp pincer and sharp teeth for a mouth with six red eyes that has no indication of white nor pupils that leaks misty hazes.
Eye, those eyes, they can show you many things about yourself... your crimes.. your sorrow.. anger.. sadness.. and regrets.
Start to have doubt about going inside a dark, creepy forest with unknown creatures lurking in at every corner... Fear starts to seep through my sense of self, my mind is in a complete mess at this point. Must be a side effect from mental re-calibration!
Swallowing a lump in my throat and my breathing has gone hackles and wheezing. My heart beat is going faster, and faster! My eyes swivel wildly in every direction with no destination in mind. Why am I here? Any enemy nearby? Why am I a dog? What am I again?- I questioned many things in life, and fell in a mental meltdown. Before I knew it, I fell unconscious.
Unbeknownst to me, my body covered in illuminated light.
"Uuuugh, my head... What, what happen?" Twilight stirred, awaken by Celestia's... sun! Raise her head for more perspective, seeing this, made her heart leap out in- "It's Back! CELESTIA'S SUN IS BACK!" She just leap up in joy for seeing her Ex-mentor's sun. Smiling even wider with full blown glee. Twilight looked around for her fellow Alicorn.
She check Town Hall, she didn't see Celestia outside. She check the inside, theirs post boards and waiting counter that's still cluttered, but their are no princess. "Maybe she's eating at Suger Cube Corner, maybe Pinkie's there!" She thought. She head to Suger Cube Corner, did everything she could to suppress her eagerness.
When she got to Suger Cube Corner for only to see only sweets in display. Looked a bit longer, seeing bakery tools, food materials, beds... But no Celestia, no Pinkie, Mrs. and Ms. Cake and Pound and Pumpkin cake either. Her muzzle twitch for only a second; Heh, maybe the others are back! Twilight thought.
Racing to another friends house, Sweet Apple Acres. "Applejack has to be here! *Huff* She has to!" She said to herself. But just like before, no one around in view. She knock on the door and wait, sitting on her haunches.
No response. She knocks again this time twice. She wait for at least twelve minutes And yet, no answer. Her happy turn to worry, to fear.
She knock harder in weary. "Applejack! It's me, Twilight Sparkle, you can come out, eh, their gone." Tint of fear slip in her tone.
Three hours of searching and every single house is empty. Not a sliver of fur, strand of mane or even a magic residue, no even one. But did found something, lay on the ground at the forest edge. "What the-"
My dream
I stand in dirt field... Filled with blades of different varieties! It appears that I return to my old self.
As my eyes glance to a familiar face. sitting on a flat stone is a girl with hair that's white as snow. Her red, amber colored iris that stares into mine. "Well... This is a strange reunion, huh Illya?!"
She nod, standing up. She clear her throat before speaking. "Will you bare this power for those who seek help, or destruction?"
Great, not this Kingdom Hearts start-up again! Placed my balled up fist on my chin. "Well~, I guess, those who seek help."
She tap a finger on her chin. "Do helping others that important." Barely a mumble, more like talking to herself out-loud. "What gives you strength?"
That got me thinking, what does give me strength? Is it my supernatural power, my friends, or is it intelligence? I know it's not the ladder, and is sort of my powers... but, "I would say, Friendship and my powers. I'm not book smart but I can make battle strategy.. But it's my trust or truth from my friends that gives me power."
"Is Friendship really that strong?" Again, no one in particular. "Will, you," Her feet shuffle, twiddling her thumb. "let me in?" I'm caught off-guard! I thought of what she meant if it's a sexual question or something else. She gave me those puppy dog eyes in desperation, they only tell me the ladder.
I sigh. "If it's not a sexual.. then sure." She squeal before embracing me in a hug. Before everything ended, her body fade into me as she peck me on the cheek.
I scream, lot's of memories, not that I know until now, that flash before my eyes. THIS IS PAINFUL!!!
***
I cracked an eye open, but I didn't find myself laying down in my bed. My hazy vision caught sight of what looked like dirty old crystal structure.
Batting my eyelids, I tried clearing my vision to better take in the surroundings. As my sight cleared, I glanced around and saw piles of books and tables, couch, chairs, and their all made; (except for books and couch) out of crystals. Where the sundae am I? he wondered.

Episode 2 - Mended Mare, Our Token and Lessons
'Wha? ' I questioned voicelessly.
The darkness moved out of my sight with my eyelids. I could see light reflecting off the ground that I was on. I couldn’t help but smirk at the sight. I never thought I’d be so happy to be nearly blinded by a sunlight glare. I audibly sighed.
I was breathing again. I could hear sounds again, even if it was just a cross-breeze. I was alive! I chuckled like a school girl. I could even hear the sound of my own chuckling.
“Wait…” I paused. My eyes narrowed.
I did sound like a girl.
'This requires some investigation, ' I thought. It appears that I'm in someones bedroom. That sunlight had actually been a lit candles. Corners of curtains are ripped and creaks and squeaks from the chandeliers being old and never been taken care-of.
Used one arm to prop myself up while hugging my stomach. I stop, my hand feels soft, smooth skin? My eyes wondered at one hand that supporting me up, as I stared at my unregistered appendages; I examine it with a bit curiosity as I can feel the texture with my other hand. A bit smooth for a males skin. 'I've seen Links hands and this isn't it. What is going on here? '
Looking at myself, I'm shock from seeing my present form.
My skin shown in a few places, some belt like protective shoes and wearing some red cloth material outfit. From up a bit at my torso an onyx breast plate that's a bit tight but not enough to prevent my movement. To top it all off, few strands of hair hang over my view are white as snow. 'I-I-I'm Illyasviel!!! '
As I continue looking at my new-form; I came to realize the differences between Illya and I. I'm more teenage age, more sexy and Illya in archers outfit is a bit bigger, but slim and firm in most of my figure. My breast are developed, size of a full grown melons if I had to guess, and it only exposed little from above and in my view. I look more like Illya's mom if shes teenager then Illya's. 'At least I know that she would look like her mother at least in a mere future. Why am I think'in of that right now? Am I going nut or am I having a meltdown again? '
I would have scream like a girl, but my ears pick up sounds of high-pitch hoof-steps behind me and something dangerous trigger my six sense. "Don't, move." A girls voice threatens.
I gulp, I did as she said and not move. "I-I'm not an enemy. Honest!" I may know how to fight, but, I still get scared you-know. And feeling magic being ready to cast from behind me is not helping my moral and sanity.
"A likely story." My unknown senses telling me that this girls eyes are looking at my feminine figure up and down.
I usually ignore it since i'm not that interesting to look at. But it's, different... From this stare to usual ones back home, maybe she's measuring me up. But why? 'Is it because I'm usually a boy and not a girl before and since I am one that I feel uncomfortable... ' My mental mind shook. 'No, that can't be the only explanation, I'm a girl.. and saying that sounds pretty weird. ' my mind jump on another conclusion. 'Maybe shes more into boys like others, but at this rate, I feel like I'm wrong in so many ways. Hope I'm not her interest. '
I just thought of something that I didn't even realize until now. I'm completely weaken in this state against a magic user, not knowing this forms structure or abilities and weaknesses. Being in this body, with a similar feeling to Wolf Links form, it feels strange.. and a bit off and dangerous if not know your own body. 'Knowledge IS the key after all... or was it 'memory is the key'? I need to watch ' Red VS Blue' again, I don't think I remember it well... if I survive that is.'
Hearing sounds come'n upfront; my mind jump out of my daze. A lavender alicorn that I remembered as Twilight Sparkle(Who I never met in real life before) walk into view, standing in-front of me.
Her eyes shows stern and accusing, yet shows authorities and hunger for some delightful relief... Wait, 'Why do I feel like I don't want what she wants? ' She came up to me with her movements displays what couples do in bed as her body slither closer! My face flush and got warmer as I watch her round curvy flanks sway on purpose.
'Is she in heat right now and tried to turn me on!.. ' Getting my eyes attention around her flanks, an erosion between my legs got warmer! 'Woah! Uh W-well; i-if she w-wan- ' Mentally shook my imaginary head and mentally slap myself from an unexpected hormone instinct and back on focus and willpower. 'No! What am I thinking?! I can't do something like that to her! ' Though my thoughts have return; my feminine body is more active, more around my breast an' in-between my legs. 'But she wants clos- ' Another mind slap. 'W-what is wrong with me!?! '
Before I can say anything, weight push me downward an' flatten over magenta blankets. Twilight has gone on top of me with one hind hoof pinning one leg down, preventing any escape. Her bed eyes and heavily breathing in heat have proven my theory, shes gone Succubus Internal Instinct 'Or SII for short. '.
I have to think of something and quick before I or her go heat diva out of instinct. 'What can I say that would snap her out of it?....OH! ' "I've been sent by The Displaced Lords in aiding those that live here. And hope in meeting the ambassador of this land!"
'Great plan dummy! I know there are stories that's rewritten by Pen Dragon on that topic. But-Oh wait, THEY ACTUALLY EXIST YOU MORON!! '
Mind click to four. 'Aren't we all morons ever since he imagined us? '
My brain click to line six. 'Don't think on that Mind Four! And three, Just do what you were told and stop say'in stuff that makes you look like a fool. '
At least it work, her eyes turn back to that young mare(If you can even call her that by how long she lived) and not in a sexual trigger, she look at me curiously but stern. "Your sent here.. looking for an ambassador, of our country... and sent here, as reinforcement?" I wouldn't call it that but yeah.
'I wish I don't need to lie, but... ' I nod to her question. "We were called in from your Princess to come and aid... But my transport has crash landed on another planet and needed a long time for repairs. But I came as fast as I could. But.. it seems, that I have failed to come.. before, well, this." 'Please take what i'm saying... '
Her eyes widen in hope. But her thoughts have cut short as seeing herself standing over me. My back press on top of- what I assume; is her bed. Flatly lay over it, my arms and legs spread across.
Flustered; and shock in realization. Twilight, realize what she was about to do to me. 'OH NO. I, I was going to force her to-' Light from her horn dim and dispersed immediately, moved her hooves and body off me. She look away in embarrassment as her face became flushed red.
I sigh quietly in relief, but my thoughts keep imagining her mounted me and my cheeks turn bright red. 'Damp those imaginary fantasies! Why do you haunt me so. ' I sigh mentally as I mentally list this as a 'List of thing to check up on and FIX'.
I shuffled my new found leggings, sitting over my legs with my knee as support, like what the Chinese do. Was it Chinese, or was that Japanese? 'I hope I can look that up. Until I find a book about it. ' Seeing her have no hostility, I can finally get a better look at her.
She has iron colored gauntlet-like horseshoes for both sets, armored chest plate thats connected to a saddle-like armor. Her body wasn't a librarians figure, underneath her lavender coat are muscular yet hidden with none to show if you don't have the eyes to see. Her mane is still has navy-blue mane up to her flank with hot pink and indigo stripes. And lastly her clear, magenta eyes all moist.
"Yes. But I've been having a little difficulty in finding them..." I asked in confusion. "Do you know?" I never got my answer.
She stammered to her hoof, look into my eyes. Below her eyes are damp fur thats getting wet from river of tears. "P-p-Please *sniff*... please, help us*sobs*!" Shock hits me, I can imagine how she feels, no; I KNOW what its like, and it hurts me so to see others in that much sadness.
I lean in and pulled her in an hug, surprised her from my unexpected act, yet warm embrace. She place her head on my breast plate, tears let loose and sobs heavily breathing. I hear her crocked voice that's muffled out. "Shh shhhh its okay, its okay.. let it all out."
I couldn't help but glance down at her. Shes look up at me like a young Innocent child hoping that their elders know on what to do, must have felt myself moved at some point.
At first thought, I thought of her as a magical talking pony with immense magic pool. But when I looked her in the eye, I see a caring, lonely, sad, scared little girl.
Before I even realize it, I gave her a motherly smile. Minutes past since I let Twilight continue her sobbing in silences that I've gain a beautiful smile from her, that made me smile.
After a while of whimpers and mopping settled down, she fell asleep soon after. I had been laying beside her while her head lay over my stomach; laying on her side. Twilights soft breathing being heard.
I kept my expression with so much satisfaction, seeing her peaceful sleep. But then, it occur to me, this feeling. My expression in confusion is written all over it. "Wait... why am I..." Whispered to myself. Right arm place a hand over my chest where my heart is. Fearing for worse, I concentrate and started diagnosis on any chances of memories and sense of self!
Scanning Selective... ... ... ... ... ... ..14% ... ... ... ..29% ... ... ..33% ... ... ... ... ... ..64% ... ... ... ... ... ..85% ... ... ... ... ..91% ... ... ... Diagnosis Complete. Condition: Only slight nerves and body changed structure.
I sigh, at least its not bad... Except for my male hormones in a females body! I quietly and sarcastically said. "Greeeaaat, now I have to deal with sexual instinct, already don't have a girlfriend. And, not only that, but I need to a-just to this body for a day before I can unlock my real body and turn back before my hormones kicks in."
I looked over Twilight's sleeping form. I couldn't help but smile drowsily, I yawn. I'll deal with it later. I lay in bed with my back toward Twilight and wait for sleep to take hold. Maybe, feeling this, isn't so bad. Except for my sexual instinct. Before I knew it, I fell asleep.
(Next Morning)
Mental time has rung and time to get up. Slowly opened eyes, still a bit tired from yesterdays events. Running and fighting, not to mention mental trance can really put you through the ringer. At least I'm not having sex desires anymore! "*Yawn*..." My first reaction is looking at straight where light breathing's. Right where i'm laying, in front of me, is a sleeping form of Twilight Sparkle. Move my head over to peck over her horn like how a mother does for their child and got up.
During my two hours since I woke, and Twilight waking up a five minutes after; we did a little bonding. It was difficult, I told her a bit about my biology like my species... well that's it really. She shows less trust in me, and I in return. I understand her reason of distrust even I don't trust others unless my instinct tells me and it's likely 86 percent chances of others to trust.
I was outside stretch'in, didn't want to have another cramp like that time with Bobo The Wizards crazy immobilize spell. I'm telling ya, that spell works wonders in video games when you use it, but annoying to hell when your the prime target.
Clip-clops coming from behind me tells that shes outside too. Still stretching, I said cheerfully. "Good morning dear !" I use 'dear ' in a song pitch, I've always want to say that.
Confused in my happy mood she asked. "Why are you so chipper?"
"Well~ , have I ever told you about who I really am and what I look like?" I ask, already know that she knows since I told her hours ago.
She nod. "Your appearance is different then what you are now, and more of a male figure.... right?" Waited for any correction, I nod. "I still think it's impossible for the very least."
I shrug, we were walking in Ponyville. Isolated with only one pony here and a human. "Yeah but its true."
"Yeah and you said and I quote; 'sent by The Displaced Lords to aid' and you LIED to me.-"
"I panic, It happens when someone points a spell or weapon at ME with unknown intents! And I spat out the only thing that I can think of that sound reasonable."
"That's no excuse to lie! You should have been honest with me... instead." Her voice croak. Realization clicked, honesty remind her of an farmer mare-whats her name... Applejack?
"I guess.... but," I turn around got ready to try. "your about to see me for what I'm really am." Twilight stop, looking at as if her face said 'prove it' and I will; right now.
As the feeling build up, I look at Twilights face to see her un-amused. Before I knew it, a quick flash came and gone and her expression change from disbelief to gape in mere seconds. Right in front of her is not of a girl figure; but a man figure.
A midnight blue sleeveless shirt with a zipper from top to bottom, its like a jacket. Barely covering my face, left collar gotten shorter until theirs nothings left on the right. The left, lower front body of the shirt is a bit more over my pants as the right gone. Left arm covered in a long; gray sleeve that's attached to some sort of cloth that muffles the mouth, useful to keep the sand out of my mouth! From waist down, is a navy blue jeans with a medium samurai plate that covers the entire right thigh and a black shoes.
My eyes are red, slit eyes, except for my right, which is pale pink; slit eye. My white as snow spiky, comb hair that hangs over my right eye.
Shock shot through her, unwilling to move for the fact of this act. It stare back and grin cross his lips before speaking. "Told-ya!"
"Bu-but wha-"
"It's best you don't ask."
She wanted to protest but best not to push the question further. She didn't want to have another brain-boggling situation like on Pinkie Pies Pinkie Sense. She start trotting ahead and I follow shortly.
We walked in silence, not ask'in any curiosity about one another. Shes been questioning herself since we stepped outside and I've got an idea. "I have a plan!" I spout excitedly like the old days. Gaining her attention I resume. "Why don't you come with me to other versions of your world!"
She gap, mouth wide and barely touch the ground. Used her hoof to lift her jaw back in place and said. "What!" Her voice whispered and squeak at once.
"Lets go to other worlds as a quest." I received a punch on the shoulder.
"NO! I want my friends back! Not journey to another places and replace them!" Twilight shouted. Stomping her hoof to point out her frustration. I think she may have taken my idea on the wrong thinking train.
"I never said replace . All I'm saying, we need to get stronger and hope to get more allies to help us." I point at the Everfree Forest. "That place is now filled with unknown monsters that even you don't know. Heck; even I don't know every enemy either."
"We'll just take that risk, I'm not gonna wait and have fun somewhere else while they are all in danger!"
"And how are you going to defeat an enemy thats completely immune to magic or worse everything that we currently have.. Sorry but risks should be reserve for a LAST resort. Besides; we're only gonna be gone with no time past when we're out somewhere else..." Lowered myself down; raised her chin up to look at me in the eyes. "I just want us to be strong enough to beat whatever thing that gets in our way! Just trust me."
Without wait'in for her respond, I open my palm and will myself to create an item. In an instant, a strange orb with grid marks and two symbols; one on each sides that has Twilights Cutie Mark and my mark that has two swords that cross like an X and a cauldron behind the swords with a droplet that shines with a ripples of halos falling in. "I want your friends to be safe too. But we have to get stronger first, even if its only a little... I need your trust. Can you trust me?" The moment of truth, will she trust me; or not.
Confliction shows on her display, decide'n on whether she would trust me. 'What he said makes sortof sense, and he said in my point of view would be that time won't continue if we're away...' She sigh. 'If theirs no alternative,' Twilight slowly raise her hoof and touch the orb, she look up at me in confusion. "How does this work?" Her voice is uncertain if this is worth, but it helps on our trusted relationship.
I smile. "We'll use this orb as our Summoning Token, next we pore some of our energy into it," She understand what I meant as her eyes squeeze tight and so did I for thirty second before opening them. Seen a lavender aura on Twilight flow into the orb and my white light aura with a tint of dark serpents follow suite. "Second thing to do is decide how for it to open either an action or say some words..."
"Since your an expert on it; you do it."
I nod, tapping my chin for a while. I then had an idea, and whisper the idea to the alicorn princess which gave a node of approval. I clear my throat before chanting my parts as we speak our lines.
I started. "We wish to be wielded by those who have pure hearts, Call our power with your will! I, God of Creation; Kye Belmont,"
Twilight did hers. "And I, Knight of Harmony; Twilight Sparkle,"
Both said in union. "Will be their as your Union Heart of Twilight!"
As the orb shimmers, a rift opened up and I place it in. Minute later, it created countless copies and I snatch ours as all of them scattered through out dimension. Alicorn look up to me, asked. "What now?"
I shrug. "We just wait for them to drop their token here or they call for us. Until then, lets get some practice in since i'm not use to fighting as Illya. What do you say?!" We start walking towards the empty meadow.
"Yes, it would help our progress."
We're clashing swords at this point, swing translucent blades at each other or dodging one another's attack. "Alright. Lets do this from the top." I turn back to myself before I continue. "What we know so far, is that they follow Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts battle style, except with a few features change a bit."
I explain this to Twilight once before about what a 'video game' is. Then 'TV's', since she only saw it for a short time. Said alicorn took a stance and shows ready. "Let's see what we can do!"
"Battle System Initiated " An unknown thought pop in our head for the start of our spar match.
Twilight first thought on what happen was a tutorial screen just pop out of nowhere? 'What is this? "Tutorial".. Like a guide! Perfect!' She instantly scrolled through displays of pages of writings and pictures on what their talking about. Looked through it in perception and calculation, she check everything it point out; and summarize her known 'States'.
"Okay. Now his." Twilight whispered, she glance at mine, in hope of seeing it.
She was right about it. She can see it, but can't believe how mine is.
Kye Belmont
'Well at least I can rely on guides!' Slight disappointed and shock, disappointed that she really need a 'Libra ', 'Scan ', or 'Sonar ' abilities and shock for my stock of HP's, it surprised her!
Minute later, she leer at my features closely, taking in everything she sees from every detail.
I stood in a crouch position with my God Arc(Blade Mode) blade point forward with it behind me and held it aside, with my empty hand held sort-of close to the flat part of the blade.
A single edge blade thats at least my height, silver edge with black frame covered the rest.
"Okay. Here I come!" She start by running up towards me before casting a couple of "Spark" spells at me and turn to her right and a bit away and once again, shot more magical sparks. I stood in place, not showing any panic or unease as every shot hits with dust clouds grew more and more as each shots contact. Pick-en up dust clouds, Twilight waited to see her success in getting all her spells through! Her thoughts of a human on their knee with only three to two bars of Health left.
As dust disperse, what her thoughts were; shattered. Her expression turn to shock, disbelief, conflicted, then confuse in that exact order.
A magenta, seven petal flower and me behind it with one arm held out. Its so humongous that it covers more then me with seven barriers thats place from small upfront to the biggest in the back. "RHO AIAS !"
My left hand is empty with no blade in sight and in an instant, another one appears with a double edge blade with a longer handle.
"Here I come." I speak serious and sprint at her with spear beside me. Twilight horn glows and a barrier surrounded herself as I thrust my spear forward with it raise and collided, as sparks fly.
'*NEIGH*, What is this! He just thrust once and all-of-a, *ugh*, sudden he hit me with a powerful thrust and it went through my shield!' Twilight try to understand this predicament. 'Did Kye change his weapon for this purpose?!' She push it aside. ' Well, he can make anything he wants all he wants;' She ran around me and casting a bit stronger 'Sparks' that actually hit me this time.
Only for me brushing off my shoulders in ease. Like it was nothing but mist passing through! 'Wh-What! What is going on HERE!'
I shook my head. 'We got a lot of work to do. ' "You can't harm me with spells, Twilight." I said plainly.
"Ye-Yes I can! Why else would you raised your shield earlier when I hit you."
My head shook and sigh as I raise one finger up as if counting. "Rule number one. Don't underestimate your opponents. They WILL use decease; and deception on you, even if you leave a sliver of confidence or distraction..." Lift another finger with my first, adds to two. "Second.. You should NEVER rely on your magic all the time. It not only get predictable fer your opponents, but you will get tired out from magic exhaustion in battle."
Glancing at her for only to see her writing down everything I said in very high details on a notepad with quill. I didn't mind it, it feels like I'm the teacher and shes my student. But I do wonder where she keeps getting so many! If my memories tell me anything, she either buys a lot from Quills And Sofas, or from something else. 'I'll have to ask her about that some other time. '
"Oh right! I almost forgot, its best to get more Intel's on enemies and allies you meet. Just in case." I said, but remembered something. "But in battle, just memories them until your safe." I immediately added, as a warning. She nod and after a few more minute later; we continue on our training.
She started not with a spell, but with her front-hooves instead. I'm impressed that shes take'n my rules serious! But I didn't let many through with me weaving and thrust with my God Arc. But she did the same, without use'n any magic at all. 'Heh! Maybe this will help... At least a little. ' Seeing lavender alicorn getting tired already, I took a step back.
She breathe heavily as if she never fought with her own bare hand, or hooves before. I took this moment to think out her role in battle. 'She's definitely not a melee fighter but definitely a caster. Now, what should she focus on. Support? Clerk? Black mage? or maybe balance? '
Twilight gasp for air between her words an' plead. "Can we*gasping*go home..and*gasping*wash up?" Took a glance at her and see sweat that soak most of her form. Myself felt wet an' a bit sticky here and there also.
I look over the sky and saw the sun setting. "Yeah... It's getting late, and, we need to be in tip top condition." She nod and she when off as I stood their for a bit longer. Seeing her out of sight; I only breath in an' sigh. Scratching on my head in thoughts. Can we do this? Can we survive to even bring them home? "I may be a god," Looked up to the sky for what felt eternity. "But even I'm not sure... if I can save them..."
Unbeknownst to me, one pony has been listen in. Twilight's ears pull back at hearing me saying that. 'For a god; he doesn't trust in himself...' She snuck away with her mind wonder in thought. 'What happen to him?'

Clad That Forge Creation And Hearts
Episode 3 - Black Pain, White Rain
First time we stood together, is like a dream. Oh, what have become of us. What did we do to lose those days. Have we became too distant in some point? Or is it we who have changed... No, no, its my own foolishness that be fell upon us...
"Hurry up slowpoke! Or we're gonna miss it!"
"Come on.. We should be getting ready for tomorrows Ascending Ceremony, not goof around."
"Aw come-on, your always studying. Not once you have fun with others and its lonely when your just studying alone."
"I can have fun, I just don't do it- What are you doing?"
*CLINK-cang-* *CLINK-cang-* *CLINK-cang-cink* *Rumble*
"TADA! A hidden passageway leading to our new adventure! Just like the old times!"
"...So, your telling me. That you drag me with you, just to go down their, and have a possibility of being booby traps. I'm going back..."
"Come ON! This is our big chance! Me and you will be the first to discover ancient runes that I know you would be interested."
"I'm not going down their. I rather not be late for my blessings from the gods then to venture off."
"How about this, after the ceremony, we go down their. Will that be okay?"
"...Ugh... *calm breathing* Fine, but only after the ceremony, when we have time."
"YES!" Both of us laugh, but my friend is laughing at my silly act.
But that moment, didn't last forever...
Floor shook and started to crumble and before we knew it, we ran as fast as we could. Even with my running speed is above average I would have out run it, but I stood by her side til the very end. If only that last part was true... When it cave-in, I was hanging on a ledge as did my friend.
"THIS IS NOT WHAT I HAVE IN MIND!!" I shouted.
"ARE YOU ALRIGHT?" My friend ask, we're hanging side-by-side.
"Yeah! No problems here. What about you?"
"I am too... Now lets get up an' out of here."
"We officially call this adventure OFF."
As we pull ourselves up, my companion yelped as hers broken apart and started falling. Out of surprise, I reached out and grab her arm as I'm still holding on the ledge. "I gotcha! Just hold on!"
"I can't, Hold on tighter!"
"I AM, hurry and climb up! I don't know how long I can-"*CREEEEK* *crack*"NO! It's breaking loose!" *creeek* "HELP! HELP!!" we shouted.
"SARAH! KYE! WHERE COMING! JUST HOLD ON."
"I-I can't! I'm losing grip! AGH! Sarah, Ugh, hurry up and climb!"
"We'll both fall if I do that...-" *creeek* *crack* "Let me go, at least one of us will live."
"NO I won't! If you go *crack* AGH, I'll go too... Its my fault, I should've just listen to you." I look down to see her smiling face, but its for a different reason as I see a tear slid across her face. "No-"
"I'm sorry." She flick her hand I'm holding with off mine, she start falling.
"NOOOO!" I try and failed to grab her hand once more, she continue to fall as I yelled out her name. "SARRRAAAAAAH!!" Extend my hands in hope that she'll come back in my grasp, but for not. As I know that wouldn't happen, tears start falling like a river.
Falling to despair, I scream, my scream echoed so loudly, it reach throughout city." SARRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!"
I gasp in terror and instantly sat up, sweating. "Wha...Why..." Hand held my forehead as a stream of tears fell from my chin. Mind playing over, and over, and over. I can not bare this constant flashback of guilt. Breathe have became uneven and hollow, Hearing myself breathing to much isn't helping my sanity.
Shake myself like a cartoon character, I step out of bed landed face first. "OW!" Yupe, for being a god an all, I hate being at the end of a slapstick. "Death... I know your laughing at me. So don't make me come back their and beat you up all over again-cause-I-know-you-don't-want-THAT!"
...[Audience gave me a funny look.]
...What?
[Audience ask what that was about.]
...Oh! you wanna know who I was talking about. [They node.]
Death is the immortal Grimm Reaper. [They frantically search for the one that can kill you with one touch.] Whoa! Whoa! WHOA! Calm down, he's not here. It won't come fer ya, Especially the last time we met. [They seem less tense.] Me and it fought once before, and I won! [They gave you a "Your joking right" look.] Hay! I'm serious... Yeah it did use that death touch. But hay; it didn't understand that I can't die that way since all easy kills won't work! [Their eyes widen in surprise.] Yeah, I thought the same thing when it got me with its instant kill too! but I'm still alive! Thought I was done for, but I wasn't titled as God of Creation for nothing.
Anyways, back to the story... Wait... Agh-NO!-Skip scene ti-
Been hour since we walk through Everfree Forest. Usually work our way towards our destination in this thick forest, but I haven't seen a single enemy since we left and it makes me wary but Twilight seem to not knowtic as she walk casually. Not wanting her to get calm, I lowly voiced out. "Twilight," She look in my direction. "I don't mean to spoil your happy mood but its not the time for you to get soft. We aren't in a safe place so keep your guard up." Her ear flatten and walk on, I feel bad. I tried to clear up away her depression. "Sorry. I just don't wan't you to get hurt..." I didn't see any changes on my end an' sigh.
But on her mind told something else. She take small glances every now and then, seeing me cautious. But thats wasn't what she really see. (I've been with Cadence for a long time, but.. now seeing him like this. I don't know what this feeling he's hiding. )
Twilight, curious on what each princess sees in their perspectives, wants to know more about their talents are like. Celestia gave her a chance and ask Cadence for some lessons on detecting emotions. But she only teach Twilight on how, but everything else has to be self taught. Cadence lie to her about it and Twilight knew; that they know best, since their more experience with it then she is.
"Where here..."
And here is our stop, Everfree castle. Old broken castle, I mean really, very old and broken down stone wall and sealing, ruin castle. Sealing with some holes and broken pillars and plant pots everywhere thats all shattered in many pieces.
Confused, feeling mist of mana flowing under our feet; "Wheres that magic coming from?" I ask. My companion look over the seen and her horn lit up.
"I'm not sure. Its someponies giving out a beacon for help... Wait... CELESTIA!" Without warning Twilight ran in without any thoughts of danger.
"Twilight wait!" I called, chase her inside only to stop by an invisible wall. How? I felt it by hit it, my whole body smack into it of course. "OWWWww. That hurt." Unstuck myself from this unexpected feet-no-not that kind of feet.
After nursing my own pain, I look at this translucent wall, using my hands to inspect it for any weak spots. Sadly, their aren't any.
Suddenly; a group of shadows of Changelings appear out of darkness. Few that built for being a Pawn piece, two that has armor like exoskeleton which label as Rooks, four that has horns that is sharp as a knife with a slim built for a Knight. Yes I'm using Chest logic.
They already surround me but didn't try to apprehend me. I laugh, my inner beast is about to get nasty. Merchant is right about one thing, I do show my true color back then. "Come ON, I was expecting all powerful enemies... But if this is all you got then," I look back at the barrier, not wanting Twilight seeing me like this. "I will make quick work of it!" I whispered. Summon Lindows second god arc and it rev to life as its saw spins only up to the guard as it shouldn't be able to do.
I just dash at them like I'm trying to break the sound barrier. Slash at one of the weaker ones and felt three try to ambush me. I Spin like how Link does it and hit them in secession and they fell with black haze leak out of their remains. "You guys are like Ogretails from God Eaters," I split one down the middle in one swing motion. "No strategy and completely weak!"
One of the bulky one try to use some magic to act as a protect during ram. I was tempt to devour it by instinct but lunge my blade like what the short sword and shot a load of Bomb: Shots that makes a low level version an ant size of power to this rhino mass of power! Did a step back as I shoot like a maniac. "Taste thiiisss!" My voice keep vibrating, it made it hard to speak right. When I was a good distance away that I stop firing, Tank Changeling out of commission and produce the same black stuff.
One ran up to me like it was the only way and I was about to swing but my arm was bitten by one and held on tight which made it hard to swing. One that hit me upfront slam into me with a force of a buffalo, it hurts badly. "Damn it!" One thing about my powers is that I can still get hurt by normal physical attacks, and thats fine since close combat is my specialty but hurts when I don't pay attention to my enemies.
Jump up to the air and just feel my blood surge rage as a sinister red aura cover myself. My outfit change to a mixture of black, red and dark red, my skin became tan, hair turn onyx and my eyes became turquoise.
As I made contact on the ground, I raise my blade, instantly went to a crescendo. Multiple copies of me shot out out of no where and attack every target within facility and vanish after doing few hits. Ran up to one that has came within range after all my copies finish up, in just one swing that made all that has happen zoom pass by like time has stop in mere seconds.
Usually I have a few left behind when I use this, but not this time. Hearing thump(s) from behind. I only Peek behind me for a short seconds, see everyone of them fallen to their deaths, unable to handle anymore punishment.
Wanted to be sure of any more hostiles nearby, I look over the area and seeing none left. Released some air as I breath out in relief. Dismiss my weapon and walk up to the still standing barrier. Seeing it still standing, I bang at it in frustration. "I guess my part ends here..." I froze as my Blood Surge form hasn't dismiss when I want it to. (What? )
Look over myself for a-bit before realization hit me! "I... I can't change back! No. No no no no no! This can't be happening to me!"
Its coming back to haunt me! Whispers of many that died by my hands and repeat constantly. An eerie pain hit me like a motor truck and feels like my head squeezing between two hammers.
I grasp my head in both hands in pain and didn't stop like I hope it would. I can only scream in pain and keep saying over and over that 'I'm sorry' or 'I didn't want to'. But they counteract with their own with what I could have done instead, but their only going to cause more destruction or more disputes.
But one person, in all those voices, have hit me harder. "Why Kye? Why did you let me fall, alone?" Couldn't continue as I fell on the floor, eyes moist and everything's all blurry. But I can tell who that voice belongs to, and it hurts to here her.
I can only whispered three words in sorrow. "I'm sorry... Sarah..." Eyes close, and tears trail down my face as did voices in my head ends.
Couple of hours pass since my dream; more like a nightmare; now bringing up an old memory that haunts me still. Wipe away tear, my emotional roller coaster end, getting up from the floor. I revert back to my self by its own, but I have no time to relish.
More shadows appear thats all armor types. But three are more larger with tusk like horn instead.
My face masked and narrow at all of them. I turn back once more to my Blood Form and stay that way. I don't care what others my think, I choose to bare this form. Not cause it represents my past, not because it holds painful memories. (To be honest, I just hope no one sees me like this. ) I thought.
Its because its what I deserve. Those that died, by my own hands! Those that won't stop using me like I'm some machine, they where a disgrace to use me, ME the chosen God of Creation for their own benefit. I can forgive them if their doing it for good like making antidotes or medicines...
Shook my head and growl. "I won't let my past hold me down." And summon lindows sword once more and ran at them as I scream my war cry. "Feel my blood line, of the IMMORTAL SLAYER !!!"
Twilight ran further inside, leading to where the throne room resides.
Hours of navigating, she reach the entrance. She was about to reach out for the door until her brain press a caution button. What if this is a trap? What if she pull this door and a monster comes out to eat her.
Heart beating, hoofs sweat and shake in anticipation. Her fears of just opening it, would only show not a single pony inside; has made her mind go jumble.
Not wanting to have a disadvantage, she charge up her teleportation spell in case it happens, reach out for the doors. Time seems to slow down, slowly place her hoof on it, as if it'll trigger a trap door by just touch. Seeing the nothing has happen, Twilight slowly pushing it open, causing it to creak quietly.
Wide enough for a pony to walk in, She brace herself and look inside. It was dark and miserable display, its just a large rectangular hall with two throne at the end of the oppose side.
Her eyes turn to whats at the center when she saw movement. Seeing with her very own eyes as it land upon her friends sitting in the center of the room, even see everyone from Ponyville is here too! They look horrible with their face tired; all depress and miserable. But that didn't stop her from smiling, her heart could jump out in joy at seeing everyone! "Princess! Girls! Spike!" Twilight glee.
"PINKIE! Stop impersonating Twilight! I just want you to keep quiet and let me sleep." Rainbow growled at the pink pony in irritation. She tried to go back to sleep, but couldn't which made her shout in frustration. "AAGGHH!!!"
Pink pony look, confuse. Look over to her rainbow mane friend. Her straight mane swung aside with her head motion. "Its not me." Pinkie Pie answered somber.
"Everypony!!" Twilight cheered as she ran up to her friends. Her thoughts of this being a trap is thrown out the window.
First one to know-tic her was Twilights brother, Shining Armor. Which his eyes widen in surprise and spoke in joy. "Twily!" His announcement got everyones attention they act as did her brother, and all her friends ran up to her in joy. "Its really you!" He said cheerfully.
Twilight nuzzle her face to his as stream of tears fell. "Yes; it is! Its really me!" She gleam at seeing her friends.
Celestia came up to Twilight and embrace one another like old time friend. "I am glad to see that your alright!" Release her embrace as everypony start leaving, chatting about their time here. "What happen?" concern in Celestia voice.
Mean while...
An unexpected thing happen as rain fell. But not any kind of rain, a WHITE rain. I can't tell but I'm certain that its suppose to be clear with only a reflective surface. They aren't dangerous as I see them touch my skin and nothing came. But I barely glance for only a second as another burst of magic struck my shield. Tired of blocking with my defense that I had to force half of my mana to place a barrier over me, tired from just using half of my magic too.
"Gah! *huff* Damn it." I grunt at my unlucky situation as they fire thin beams at a barrier that I cast around me. My shield attachment would've been useful but didn't want to take any chances. "Why does this form has more things to offer and not my Demigod Form or God Form?!" Question my own power limitations and what merchant did to me.
Surround by armor shadows with no way to escape, all I can do is mow them down one by one. Their is an option, but its debatable. I can use my god form and take this serious, but go against it. If I abuse its power like what others do, it'll give everyone to treat me like a god instead of being a normal person. But If I stay in my weaker forms, then my immunity to outside of melee combats will get myself kill!
My thought froze. If I can die like this... then surely means I can atone for my sins! No more regrets to weigh me down; no more harming others that desires my powers or fear, no more mortals treating me like an untouchable god! Twilight doesn't know everything about my godly powers since she didn't see it in tremendous capacity, not wanting my first ever real friend too-
"...My...Friend!?..." Words smack me awake from my own desires of true peace.
Friend... I haven't use those words over a thousand years.
One try to sneak up from behind so I did a back attack on em. I have to stop reminiscing and start paying attention. But I didn't knowtic a white wind picking up until it was to late. Unable to see by its bright light that I have to cover my eye with my unused arm. What is happening...
When all that white wind dissipate, I open my eyes to look at where I am. I saw that I'm near Ponyville, at the grass field just where we came in the Everfree and I somehow reverted back twice today.
I didn't look around for something; or someone thats within my line of sight, a sight that I never wanted to see. What stood in my general direction is a teenage women with long black hair and pale skin.
Wore a roman attire for the torso and for her hips down is a frill skirt that hangs to just above her feet where she wore high knight greaves. Arm covered in bandages and over it is knight armor gloves, her chest shows half armor with tubes on her back thats connected to a large wings that let her stay floating. Even curtain areas on her body has black spikes with a few gems covering her other side that held no armor. In her right hand is a black staff thats completely crooked to a dragons head while the other hand held a shield gauntlet thats large enough to block her face to her knee.
"T-T-This can't be!" I whispered, voice trembling. I took a step forward as my body trembles in pain, one that I haven't had for so long.
"Were almost there! Just a little bit further!" Rainbow shout anxiously as she flies over the forest. All the ponies were ecstatic, seeing home again is their happiest moment of all.
But one young alicorn seems distracted which has Cadence eye. "Something a matter? You seem a bit distracted." Twilights foalsitter ask. She node.
"I just realize, I left Kye here; I mean back there... Since he isn't at the castle entrance I suspect he's at Ponyville." Miss Sparkle thought, placing points and pins at her theory like pinning small piece of paper on a board.
"Thats-" Cadence words are cut out as a song- no; theme make sense; playing. They were coming close to Everfree edge. When they reach grassy meadow seeing two figures stood there. First one Cadence lays eyes on is a young girl. "Is that Kye?" She ask, couldn't tell if thats him and not knowing what humans look like and biology except for in mythology and legends.
Twilight look at her and shook her head. "No, thats a girl, not a male."
"What about that one." Pinkie Pie point at a boy thats a bit further away from the girl.
Twilight glance at him and froze in place. She wasn't the only one as did the other princesses, especially Celestia and Luna when they look in that direction as well. What they felt is an immense blood and death flowing out of his aura. If they have to describe on what they felt, it feels like countless live die by his hand or around him.
She didn't want to believe this. Doesn't WANT to believe it. She took a few steps forward to this man body trembling. Words quivered as she call his assume name. "Kye..." (Is he some murderer? a monster!? ) He turn to look at her and they gasp as seeing one eye that brought shivers up their spines.
"N-N-N-N-NIGHTMARE MOON! SHES RETURN!" One pony shouted and everything gone crazy as they hide behind the princesses. Princess in question has tense up at seeing my eyes.
My eyes only linger to Twilight for a bit; then look away. Shes scared of me, she might not want be friends with me after this. Look over my old friend, no; not my friend. "Why... Why... Why...-" My eyes glare at her in anger. "Why are you disgrace the dead! Especially, MY, FRIEND !!" Anger seethe through my teeth.
Without even thinking, I activate battle mod.
"Battle System Initiated " An unknown thought pop in our head for the start of our spar match.
